Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging provided with a coupon advertising or other on at least one of its external faces as well as process for manufacturing such packaging.
  • packaging including but not limited to cigarette packs, fitted on one side with a coupon which can be opened to to be read, said coupon bearing advertising indications, a manual, indications for a competition or any other appropriate indications.
  • US-A-5,035,935 describes a cigarette packet provided with a such coupon placed under the transparent film covering the pack of cigarettes. Such an arrangement requires completely removing the transparent film before you can access the coupon. On the other hand, given the need for the film transparent, this arrangement cannot be adapted to packaging made of a single layer, ie without the outer transparent film. Another downside of the proposed means is that it is not possible to simultaneously open the pack of cigarettes and coupon.
  • EP-A-0.803.450 also describes a pack of cigarettes provided with a tax coupon under the outer transparent film. Since the coupon is attached to the surface of the film strip which will lie against the package of cigarettes, it is necessary to provide an additional step when production of the film to arrange the tear tape allowing simultaneously opening the transparent film and tearing the coupon tax. Note that in this case the tax coupon is not intended to be read after opening the package.
  • a first object of the invention is therefore to provide packaging one or more packages or objects, provided on at least one of its outer sides of a closed coupon, the means of opening the packaging and of the coupon being coordinated in such a way that the opening of the packaging causes the coupon to open simultaneously.
  • a second object of the invention is to allow such a provision is suitable for all kinds of packaging, in particular but not exclusively to packages of cigarette packages, rigid type or soft comprising an outer packaging film or soft type consisting of only one thickness, ie without the outer film.
  • a third object of the invention is to allow such a layout is suitable for all kinds of coupons, for example coupons partially or completely covering one or two sides of the packaging, coupons of various shapes and sizes, coupons that may contain a interior insert unfoldable in any way, coupons can contain a detachable insert, etc.
  • Another object of the invention is to propose at least one method of production of such packaging.
  • the figures and the description which follow relate to a package of cigarettes, the concepts of package and packaging should be extended to any type of packaging of any product on which a coupon can be arranged in either of the ways described.
  • the shape of the packaging may also not be parallelepiped as shown, but may be of different shape, for example circular cylindrical.
  • Figure 1 we have a pack of cigarettes 1, for example of the type rigid, covered with a film 2 of a preferably transparent material such as cellophane, polypropylene or any other material commonly used in this effect.
  • the package 1 is here provided with a coupon 3 arranged on one of its faces, outside the film 2.
  • the outside face 30 of the coupon 3 is visible and can bear a logo, an advertising indication or any other indication.
  • coupon 3 When sale of package 1, coupon 3 must be closed, opening it to read the information it contains or access its content should not be possible only when or after opening the package 1.
  • the way coupon 3 is closed is described in detail below with regard to the explanations concerning the Figure 6A.
  • the film 2 is provided here so conventional of a tear strip 20, integrated into the film 2 and making the around the side faces of the package 1, one end of the tear strip 20 being provided with a tear-off tab 21, shown here unfolded to be capture.
  • the coupon 3 is provided with a line 31 whose mechanical resistance is weakened, for example by successive perforations, this line of weakened resistance 31 being arranged essentially parallel and in view of a portion of the tear strip 20.
  • the resistance line weakened separates coupon 3 into two portions, a first portion 300, the most important, which is fixed to the portion 22 of the film 2 which will remain on the package 1 after opening, and a second portion 301 which is fixed to the portion 23 film 2 which will be removed when opening package 1 and then discarded. So, seen the correspondence of the line 31 on the tear strip 20, during the opening of package 1 by pulling on the tear strip 20 to remove the portion upper 23 of film 2, the coupon 3 is simultaneously opened allowing the user to access the information it contains.
  • Figure 2 shows the same package when the tear strip 20 and the upper portion 23 of the film 2 have been removed, leaving the lower portion 22 of film 2 on package 1, on which coupon 3 is attached.
  • the part top 10 of package 1 can now be opened conventional to access cigarettes or other objects it contains.
  • the interior faces or pages 302 and 303 of coupon 3 previously unavailable when the packaging was closed, are now accessible by unfolding coupon 3 around a fold 32.
  • Figure 3 shows another embodiment of a package of cigarettes 1 whose packaging 4 is obtained in a single sheet of a single layer, as described for example in patent EP-B-0.633.201.
  • Such packaging for a pack of soft cigarettes does not include film 2 of the previous packaging.
  • Such packaging may be provided with a tear strip 40 and a pull tab 41.
  • Coupon 3 is shown here in essentially circular form, but could also be of a different shape, including a fold 32 for the opening as previously as well as a weakened resistance line 31.
  • the face top of package 1 includes folded film 2 closures for shape Figure 1, or the packaging blank 4 for the shape of execution of FIG. 3.
  • Such an arrangement of a face prevents there arrange the tear strip considering the superposition of the folded layers.
  • you wish to have a coupon 3 on one side of the package 1 with folds of the film or the packaging sheet such as for example the upper side or lower side it is possible to arrange the package 1 as shown in Figure 4, either by providing that the tear strip 20 is arranged near the periphery of the upper face and fixing the main portion 300 of the coupon 3 essentially on the upper face, while the portion 301 is folded down on a lateral face so that the weakened resistance line 31 is superimposed on a portion of the ribbon lifting 20.
  • FIG. 5 shows yet another embodiment of a coupon 3 which here opens in two parts.
  • Coupon 3 shown here covers essentially a whole side of the package 1.
  • the tear strip 20 is not more arranged near a border of coupon 3 but in a more central, so that the coupon opens in two opposite flaps.
  • the tear strip 20 has been removed, which tore the pre-weakened resistance line 31 of coupon 3 and allowed to open the two shutters.
  • the two portions 300 and 301 of coupon 3 are of equal dimensions, one or the other of the two said portions may be larger than the other.
  • the coupon 3 is arranged so that the opening line 31 is parallel to the fold line 32; by arranging these two lines with a certain angle between them, we can get the two shutters to have shapes different.
  • the portion 301 attached to the portion 23 of the package which will be eliminated can for example adhere to it so that it can easily be partially or completely detached, or contain a self-adhesive insert 35 detachable.
  • the portion 300 of the coupon is arranged on a front or side face of the package while the portion 301 is arranged on an upper face of the package, as shown in Figure 4.
  • Such a variant is particularly well suited to a soft pack in a single layer as described above.
  • Figures 6A and 6B as well as 7A and 7B show, in section, two possible forms of execution of a coupon 3.
  • the coupon 3 is formed of a sheet, folded around a fold line forming a fold 32, the portion 320 of the coupon 3 opposite the fold 32 being closed, for example by means of closure, for example a point or a line of glue 321 or by embossing, so as to keep the coupon closed before opening the packaging.
  • closure for example a point or a line of glue 321 or by embossing
  • the line 31 of pre-weakened resistance for example a pre-cut line arranged on the two superimposed portions of the sheet, is here arranged near this closing line 321, the line of weakened resistance 31 separating the coupon 3 into a main portion 300 and another portion 301.
  • the face of this assembly opposite the face 30 which is visible on the outside of package 1 is glued, at least partially on a corresponding portion of film 2 so that the resistance line pre-weakened 31 is parallel and approximately superimposed on a portion of the tear strip 20, that the main portion 300 of the coupon 3 is superimposed on the portion 22 of the film 2 which will remain later on the package 1 and that the other portion 301 of the coupon 3 carrying the closing line 321 is superimposed on the portion 23 of the film 2 which will be removed after opening the package 1.
  • the face of the coupon 3 to be stuck on the film 2 is self-adhesive, but it is also possible to provide a few dots or lines of collage 33.
  • FIG. 6B shows the same coupon 3 after its opening, respectively the opening of the film 2.
  • the user pulled on the strip tear-off 20, separating the film 2 into its two portions 22 and 23.
  • the portion main 300 of coupon 3 remains fixed on portion 22 of film 2 which remains on package 1, while portion 301 of coupon 3 is eliminated with the portion 23 of film 2.
  • it now becomes possible to open coupon 3 by unfolding it around fold 32 and read the information contained on internal pages 302 and 303 of the coupon 3.
  • the pre-weakened resistance line 31 is placed close of the 320 portion of the coupon, but it can be arranged in any place between this portion and fold 32.
  • FIG. 7A shows a coupon 3 according to another embodiment
  • Coupon 3 consists essentially of and is fixed exactly the same the way described just above, except that a second sheet 34 folded for example in accordion and fixed by a collage 340 on a portion of the face 303 of the first sheet close to the fold 32.
  • the length of each folded page of sheet 34 is such that these pages do not intercept the pre-weakened resistance line 31 of the first sheet.
  • this self-adhesive insert 35 can represent points to collect, a voucher for participation in a contest or lottery or any other object of the same kind, said insert 35 can be peeled off when coupon 3 is open.
  • Such an insert can obviously be provided on a coupon according to the first embodiment described.
  • Figures 6A and B as well as 7A and B show two shapes possible execution of a coupon 3 among many possibilities, in in particular coupon 3 may consist of more than two sheets, possibly folded or glued differently than what was shown, each sheet may contain a different number of pages from what has been described, the constitution of coupon 3 may be different, for example in the form of a small booklet rather than foldable pages in accordion.
  • the length and width dimensions of coupon 3 are essentially determined by those of the face of package 1 on which the coupon 3 will be pasted. We see in Figures 1 and 3 that the coupon covers a portion of a front face, while the coupon of FIG. 5 covers completely one side and that of Figure 4 partially covers two adjacent faces.
  • Figure 3 shows that coupon 3 can be shaped different than square or rectangular.
  • the weakened resistance line 31 can be of any suitable type, for example a tear strip, a perforated line or a locally reduced thickness line. So preferential, coupon 3 closed as indicated above and fitted with its pre-weakened resistance line 31, with or without an adhesion layer self-adhesive, is obtained as is from the coupon manufacturer to be applied to packaging as described below.
  • packaging it has been clarified that it may be a hard or soft type packaging, whether or not covered with a protective film outside, not exclusively intended for packaging cigarettes or other tobacco industry products.
  • a coupon 3 according to any of the embodiments described or possible, can be placed on the outermost layer of any type of packaging with a means of opening similar to a tear strip. It can be as described from the packaging of products from the tobacco industry, the food industry or whatever, the packaging in question here can be an outer packaging packing a plurality of packages or objects of any shape, such as for example a package of a carton of cigarettes.
  • the band tear-off 20 or 40 can be replaced by a tear-off wire arranged at inside the packaging and following the same path as described for tear strip. It can also be a resistance line pre-weakened, obtained for example by successive or more perforations generally by a decrease in mechanical tensile strength according to a line determined on the packaging, for example a local decrease the thickness of the packaging sheet obtained by any known means.
  • Figure 8 shows very schematically a first example of a process for obtaining a packaging provided with a coupon according to any one of the forms of execution or variants described. This process is based on the fact that coupon 3 is to be placed on the outside of the packaging and that it can therefore be placed on package 1 whose packaging is finished.
  • a distributor 51 On a portion of machine 5 on which the packages 1 circulate for example on an endless belt 50 in the direction indicated by the arrow, there is a distributor 51, of known technique, provided with a reservoir 52 filled with coupons 3.
  • a detector 53 for example a cell photoelectric, can detect the presence and position of a packet 1 within the operating range of the distributor 51 and, via the control 54, controls the actuation of the distributor 51 so that it deposits a coupon 3 on the detected package 1, according to a position calculated so as to match the pre-weakened resistance line of coupon 3 with that of the packaging of package 1. If the back of coupon 3 is self-adhesive it adheres directly on the packaging. Otherwise, a device complementary 55 for applying glue dots, glue lines or a glued surface is also controlled by control unit 54 in order to prepare the bonding on a package 1 before applying the coupon 3.
  • the advantage of this process is that the necessary equipment is very simple design, space-saving and can be installed on any which portion of a machine 5 where the packages 1 circulate as described. he can even be installed on a simple packet transfer installation 1.
  • Figure 9 also very schematically shows another example a process for obtaining a packaging provided with a coupon according to one any of the forms of execution or variants described.
  • the coupon 3 is placed on the packaging portion before it is applied to the object or package to be packaged.
