Definitions

  • This application for a Utility Model refers to a box head, developed as from a body with oblong-octagonal characteristics of little thickness, shaping a box of the type to be used for the export of fruit or similar products, being basically manufactured of plastic material, such as polypropylene or similar, hence permitting the reuse or recycling of the mentioned heads.
  • the main innovative characteristics of the plastic heads basically consist in that they are structured on the basis of a body having an octagonal shape of low thickness, whose lower and upper edges are longer, while its side edges are shorter, the long and short edges being joined at the vertices through an oblique or beveled segment of a short length.
  • the plastic head has in its upper edge, equidistant from each other and occupying the entire thickness, a pair of protruding adjustment locks forming an integral part of the head body, which in an elevation plane is similar to a grotesque letter "T", being established between them a curved concave depression of the upper edge.
  • a pair of adjustment voids or depressions occupying most of the thickness, said depressions having the same geometric shape as the locks, hence permitting a fastening between the heads when the boxes are piled.
  • the box itself is shaped as from these heads located in each one of its front ends, its entire body being structured on the basis of a plastic or cardboard panel, such that when the box has been used, the cardboard or plastic can be recycled and the heads reused or also recycled.
  • cardboard boxes have a single use character regarding the packing of fruit or similar products, since if said containers are faced with possible problems of humidity, wetting or rotting of their contents, the material of which the box is made loses its resistance characteristic. Even though cardboard is very isotropic, it is mainly composed of cellulose, which has a low resistance before such conditions.
  • plastic boxes are used, generally constituted by a rigid single piece body, permitting piling, both when empty or loaded, which is basically defined by a basal surface, two brackets and two front ends, each one of them having on their external face rigidizing ribs and holes or ventilation grooves, such boxes being suitable to protect the products inside them.
  • This utility model offers a head to shape a box, of the type to be used in the export of fruits or similar products, mainly structured on the basis of a single piece body of a plastic material, basically composed of a geometric oblong-octagonal characteristic, where its interior is reinforced by ribs or reinforcement columns to offer a front end or rigid head, whose perimetric shape can be defined preferably in two sectors, the upper one having two protruding locks with specific characteristics permitting an adjustment and cohesion with the upper box and a lower sector having two voids or depressions, just below the upper locks which permit the upper locks of the lower box to be introduced in it, hence shaping a solid pile with respect to vertical movements.
  • This utility model consists of a head or front end of the type to shape a box for the export of fruit or a similar product, which is described initially referring to the figures preceding this description, where there is a monoblock component 1, which is structured on the basis of an oblong body of little thickness, where its perimeter is shaped on the basis of 8 faces, hence constituting an octagonal body having an external surface 10, and an internal surface 11.
  • the faces 2 and 6 of the octagonal body perimeter correspond to the side surfaces of the head or front end, said faces 2 and 6 being structured on the basis of a rectangular area, where its length corresponds to the height of head 1 and its width to the thickness of head 1.
  • the faces 3, 5, 7 and 9 of the octagonal body perimeter correspond to the surfaces situated in the vertices of the front end, said faces being structured on the basis of a small rectangular area, where the length is defined by the cant edges joining the faces 2 and 6 with the faces 4 and 8 and their width by the head thickness.
  • Face 4 of the octagonal body perimeter corresponds to the lower horizontal surface of the front end, which is shaped by a rectangular area surface where the length of said surface four corresponds to the width of the front end 1 and the width of the surface 4 corresponds to the thickness of head 1.
  • This surface 4 has two depressions or voids 12, with trapezoidal characteristics, which are situated equidistantly from each other and with respect to the vertices where faces 3 and 5 are located, the latter being the upper base of the trapezoidal void 12, that of less length and leaving in its vertical bottom a laminar wall of little thickness.
  • Face 8 of the octagonal body perimeter corresponds to the upper horizontal surface of the front end, shaped by a surface of rectangular area where the length of said surface 8 corresponds to the width of the front end 1, and the width of surface 8 corresponds to the thickness of head 1.
  • This surface 8 has two protruding locks 13, whose geometry is similar to that of a grotesque letter "T", where the horizontal part of the letter “T” has trapezoidal characteristics. These protruding locks 13 are located equidistantly to each other and with respect to the vertices where the faces 7 and 9 are situated, as a result remaining longitudinally just above the depressions 12, in a way that on piling the boxes, the protruding locks 13 of the lower box are interlocked in the trapezoidal voids 12 of the upper box, as is shown in figure 10.
  • the centre part 14 of the surface 8 and which corresponds to that located between the protruding locks 13 is curved concave, hence permitting that when the boxes are piled as shown in figure 10, that is when surface 4 is above surface 8, the handler can introduce his hand through the centre part 14, to pull the upper box and not damage its contents.
  • the second ribs or rigidizing walls of the head are always located inside the head and beneath faces 4 and 8, in a way that beneath the first of them and perimetrically, a quadrangular rib 17 is located having some circular holes 18 and also some small quadrangular holes 19 in its central area.
  • this head 1 to shape a box is conditioned to that its position is vertical, so that surface eight and locks 13 remain upwards, in the same way that surface 10 remains outwards; once the head has been located in this way, a cardboard or plastic panel has to be added which extends across the entire octagonal perimeter, in a way that it is hooked in each one of the perimetric faces of the front end or head, as shown in figure 11.
