Definitions

  • the invention relates to a packaging for products presented in grouped packaging and in particular for fresh cheese packaged in jars grouped and closed each by a cover.
  • Each pot is intended to contain a cheese mold called announcements with perforations allowing the fresh cheese to drip.
  • the pots are held in place by a film plastic material or a plastic or cardboard strip.
  • the object of the invention is to propose another packaging especially for jars for packaging fresh cheese.
  • the invention relates to packaging for products presented in grouped packages consisting of a combination of pots each closed by a cover and a device to group the pots with a number of housings equal to that of the pots to be joined, each pot with an outer annular shoulder horizontal serving as a stop zone and each cover comprising a horizontal outer annular shoulder serving as a support zone, characterized in that the device is a basket having a bottom from which rises in a axial direction at least one protrusion of substantially frustoconical shape which defines with the side walls of the basket said housings intended for each receive a jar closed by a lid, in that the top of this protuberance comprises, on the one hand, a flat base extending parallel at the bottom of the basket on which the shoulder of a pot placed in a basket housing and, on the other hand, a dome-shaped skirt integral with the base and axially spaced therefrom such that the edge circular of said dome-shaped skirt pinches elastically said shoulder of the lid closing said pot.
  • the device according to the invention for conditioning, by example in quadrette, jars of fresh cheese according to a square arrangement consists of a basket 1 with a bottom 2 and four side walls 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D inscribed in a parallelepiped so as to hold four pots grouped in a square arrangement.
  • the side walls of basket 1 are constituted, at their upper part, essentially by a wire frame horizontal 10 connected by vertical branches 11 to the bottom 2 of the basket.
  • the basket has a central protuberance 4 of substantially frustoconical shape which rises according to an axial direction A from the bottom 2 of the basket narrowing in section.
  • This protuberance defines with the walls 3A to 3D of the basket four housings in each of which can be placed a pot, the bottom of each pot resting on the bottom of the basket.
  • FIG 2 we see more particularly a pot 5 in place in a defined location inside the basket, the pot 5 being closed by a lid 6.
  • the cover is relatively high to cover the dish which is arranged at inside the pot.
  • Each pot 5 has an annular shoulder horizontal 51 extending radially outward from the pot and having its inner periphery connected to the body of the pot 52 of substantially shape frustoconical and its outer periphery connected to a cylindrical skirt 53 of which the upper end constitutes the upper rim of the pot.
  • Shoulder 51 serves of the pot stop area in the basket.
  • the rim top of the pot ends in an annular horizontal zone 54 forming a shoulder extending radially outward from the pot on which it rests the upper edge of the dish not shown.
  • each cover 6, ends in its side, at its lower part, by a cylindrical skirt 61 connected to the body 62 of the cover by a horizontal annular shoulder 63 which extends radially towards the outside of the cover; and at its lower end, this skirt has an inner bead 64.
  • the outer face of the shoulder 63 serves as basket support area on the cover and the inside face of the shoulder 63 serves as a stop zone for the cover on the horizontal annular zone 54 ending the rim of the pot.
  • the protrusion 4 has at its top an annular flat base horizontal 40 which extends substantially parallel to the bottom 2 of the basket.
  • the body of the protrusion 4 is constituted by four rigid branches 41 and the bottom of the basket consists of four straps 21 also arranged in square, each strapping 21 serving as a support zone for the bottom of a pot 5.
  • the rigid branches 41 extend respectively between a hoop 21 and the base annular 40 in a square arrangement relative to the bottom of the basket.
  • the protuberance 4 has a dome-shaped skirt 42 which is secured to the annular base 40 by four branches 43 which extend in the axial direction A so that so that the circular edge of the skirt is axially spaced from the surface upper of base 40 by a distance slightly less than the distance between the shoulder 51 of a pot and the shoulder 63 of a lid closing this pot.
  • the shoulder 51 of the pot abuts against the base 40 of the protrusion while the shoulder 63 of the cover clicks into place under the circular edge of the skirt 42 of the protuberance and is pinched so elastic by this which ensures a blocking of the jar closed by a lid in the basket housing at the same time as a tight closure of the pot by lid.
  • the branches 43 are distributed equidistant on the periphery of the circular edge of the skirt 42 and more particularly in a square arrangement offset by 45 ° from the square arrangement of pots in basket to allow each lid closing a pot to come fit between two consecutive branches 43.
  • Each jar with its lid can also be easily removed of the basket by slightly lifting the flexible circular edge of the skirt 4.
  • Bosses 12 are provided at the lower part and inside the housing, and more particularly on branches 11 and 41 to obtain a clamping effect of the pot placed in a housing; keeping the pots in the basket being thus reinforced very simply.
  • the basket with its central protuberance 4 and the skirt 42 is made of a single piece preferably by molding from a plastic material and is of a low cost.
  • the bottom of the basket which coincides with the base of the protrusion is hollowed out to stack several empty baskets.
  • the skirt has a central bore 44 coaxial with the annular base 40 to allow the swipe of a finger. Because the bottom of the basket coincides with the protrusion is hollowed out, several baskets can be stacked even when they contain pots. If necessary, the central bore in the skirt 42 can be replaced by a handle without questioning this possibility stacking.
  • Figures 1 and 2 illustrate a basket with a very bare frame (including the protuberance), of the filiform type but the invention is not limited to this type of achievement. It would also be possible to extend the principle of the invention the grouping of six or eight jars of white cheese packaging by providing two or three protrusions respectively rising from the bottom of the basket.
