Description

La présente invention a pour objet un emballage pour le conditionnement et la présentation sur un rayon de linéaire ou une étagère de magasin d'articles regroupés par lots.The present invention relates to a packaging for the packaging and presentation on a shelf or shelf store of items grouped in batches.

Des emballages, notamment en carton ondulé, sont souvent utilisés pour réaliser le conditionnement d'articles qui sont ensuite présentés à la vente sur des plateaux de rayons de magasins encore appelés linéaires. Une première solution pour mettre les articles en rayon consiste à ouvrir l'emballage, puis à transférer les articles un par un sur l'étagère d'offre à la vente. Cette solution prend un temps de manipulation important.Packaging, particularly in corrugated cardboard, is often used to package items which are then presented for sale on department store shelves again called linear. A first solution to put items on the shelves consists of opening the packaging, then transferring the items one by one to the offer shelf for sale. This solution takes time to handle important.

En outre, dans d'autres cas, il est souhaitable de pouvoir laisser les articles dans un support, notamment pour assurer et maintenir le bon positionnement d'une série d'articles les uns par rapport aux autres.In addition, in other cases, it is desirable to be able to leave the articles in a support, in particular to ensure and maintain the good positioning of a series of articles in relation to each other.

Le but de l'invention est de fournir un emballage pour le conditionnement et la présentation sur un rayon, d'articles regroupés par lots, qui soit d'une structure simple et économique, qui soit d'une utilisation très pratique pour les opérateurs mettant les articles en rayon, et qui puisse permettre la présentation à la vente sous différentes formes.The object of the invention is to provide packaging for the packaging and presentation on a shelf of articles grouped by lots, which is of a simple and economical structure, which is of a very practical use for operators putting items on the shelves, and which can allow the presentation for sale in different forms.

A cet effet, l'emballage qu'elle concerne, du type possédant une forme générale parallélépipédique, comprend en combinaison une barquette qui, servant de supports aux articles, comporte un fond délimité le long de trois de ses bords par trois côtés, le quatrième bord étant libre, et une coiffe qui, destinée à venir recouvrir les articles et à être fixée sur la barquette, ferme au moins partiellement l'emballage le long du bord de celle-ci ne comportant pas de côté.To this end, the packaging it relates to, of the type having a general parallelepiped shape, in combination with a tray which, serving as supports for the articles, comprises a bottom delimited along three of its edges by three sides, the fourth edge being free, and one cap which, intended to come to cover the articles and to be fixed on the tray, at least partially closes the packaging along the edge of this one having no side.

Avantageusement, le fond de la barquette est de forme rectangulaire, et le bord ne comportant pas de côté est orienté dans le sens de la largeur.Advantageously, the bottom of the tray is shaped rectangular, and the edge without side is oriented in the direction of the width.

Suivant une forme préférée d'exécution de cet emballage, la barquette est réalisée en carton et la coiffe est réalisée en carton. Il est ainsi possible de faire différentes utilisations de cet emballage. Lorsque l'emballage rempli d'articles arrive sur un lieu de vente, l'opérateur peut désolidariser la coiffe de la barquette, ce qui permet d'avoir accès aux articles qui demeurent supportés par la barquette. Suivant une première possibilité, si l'on souhaite que les articles soient maintenus positionnés les uns par rapport aux autres à l'aide de la barquette, sans que la barquette ne soit particulièrement visible pour les consommateurs, la barquette est positionnée sur un rayon avec son bord ne comportant pas de côté transversal tourné vers les consommateurs. Si, au contraire, le côté transversal de la barquette comporte, sur sa face extérieure, un signe d'identification des articles conditionnés dans l'emballage, la barquette peut être positionnée avec les articles qu'elle supporte, avec son côté transversal tourné du côté des consommateurs. Ce côté transversal constitue alors une aide à la vente. Suivant une troisième possibilité, si le commerçant ne souhaite pas conserver la barquette, après avoir retiré la coiffe, il pose la barquette sur le rayon avec le côté transversal de la barquette tourné vers lui, puis, retenant les articles d'une main, il retire la barquette par coulissement à l'aide de l'autre main, assurant en un seul mouvement le transfert de la totalité des articles conditionnés dans l'emballage de la barquette sur le rayon considéré.According to a preferred embodiment of this packaging, the tray is made of cardboard and the cap is made of cardboard. It is thus possible to make different uses of this packaging. When the packaging filled with articles arrives at a point of sale, the operator can separate the cap from the tray, which gives access to the articles which remain supported by the tray. Following a first possibility, if one wishes that the articles are kept positioned the relative to each other using the tray, without the tray is not particularly visible to consumers, the tray is positioned on a spoke with its edge having no side transverse consumer-oriented. If, on the contrary, the side transverse of the tray has, on its outer face, a sign identification of the items packaged in the packaging, the tray can be positioned with the items it supports, with its side transverse turned to the consumer side. This transverse side constitutes a sales aid. According to a third possibility, if the trader does not wish to keep the tray, after removing the cap, he places the tray on the shelf with the transverse side of the tray turned towards him, then, retaining the articles with one hand, he removes the tray by sliding with the other hand, ensuring in one movement the transfer of all the items packaged in the packaging of the tray on the shelf in question.

Suivant une forme d'exécution de cet emballage, dans lequel la coiffe est réalisée en carton, la hauteur de la coiffe correspond à la hauteur de l'emballage, la coiffe étant emboítée à l'intérieur de la barquette, et étant fixée par points, par exemple par collage, entre les côtés longitudinaux de la barquette et les parois longitudinales de la coiffe en contact avec lesdits côtés.According to an embodiment of this packaging, in which the cover is made of cardboard, the height of the cover corresponds to the height packaging, the cap being fitted inside the tray, and being fixed by points, for example by gluing, between the sides longitudinal of the tray and the longitudinal walls of the cap in contact with said sides.

Pour désolidariser la coiffe de la barquette, il suffit à l'opérateur de glisser les doigts entre la coiffe et la barquette, dans la zone de chevauchement de celles-ci, pour réaliser la rupture des points de fixation par colle.To separate the cap from the tray, the operator just needs to slide your fingers between the cap and the tray, in the overlapping of these, to achieve the breaking of the fixing points by glue.

Suivant une autre forme d'exécution, la hauteur de la coiffe correspond à la hauteur de l'emballage, la coiffe étant emboítée à l'extérieur de la barquette, la paroi transversale de la coiffe située du côté de la barquette comportant une partie inférieure évidée à la forme du côté de la barquette, de telle sorte que cette paroi transversale de la coiffe et le côté transversal de la barquette soient situés dans un même plan, la coiffe étant fixée par points, par exemple par collage, sur la barquette, au niveau des bords longitudinaux de la barquette.According to another embodiment, the height of the cap corresponds to the height of the packaging, the cap being fitted the outside of the tray, the transverse wall of the cap located on the side of the tray comprising a lower part hollowed out in the shape of the side of the tray, so that this transverse wall of the cap and the transverse side of the tray are located in the same plane, the cap being fixed by points, for example by gluing, on the tray, at the level longitudinal edges of the tray.

La coiffe peut être réalisée de différentes façons.The cap can be made in different ways.

Suivant une première possibilité, la coiffe comprend un fond sensiblement de même surface que celle de la barquette prolongée par deux panneaux de hauteur et longueur correspondant à celles de la coiffe, chaque panneau étant muni de deux retours destinés à former chacun une partie de l'une des parois transversales de la coiffe, le fond comportant le long de ses deux bords transversaux deux pattes de collage sur les retours précités, destinées à assurer la tenue de la coiffe en position montée.According to a first possibility, the cap includes a bottom substantially the same surface as that of the tray extended by two panels of height and length corresponding to those of the cap, each panel being provided with two returns intended to each form a part of one of the transverse walls of the cap, the bottom comprising the along its two transverse edges two gluing tabs on the returns above, intended to ensure the holding of the cap in the mounted position.

Selon une seconde possibilité, la coiffe est constituée par une demi-caisse américaine, comportant quatre panneaux formant une ceinture, délimitant les quatre parois de la coiffe, chaque panneau étant muni d'un prolongement, les quatre prolongements assemblés les uns aux autres formant le fond de la coiffe.According to a second possibility, the cap is constituted by a American half-body, comprising four panels forming a belt, delimiting the four walls of the cap, each panel being provided with a extension, the four extensions assembled to each other forming the bottom of the cap.

Suivant une troisième possibilité, la barquette comporte un côté transversal de hauteur égale à la hauteur de l'emballage, muni de deux retours longitudinaux, tandis que la coiffe possède la même structure que la barquette, le fond étant toutefois délimité par au moins trois côtés, dont éventuellement un côté transversal de même hauteur que les côtés longitudinaux, la barquette et la coiffe étant montées tête-bêche et assemblées par points, par exemple par collage, entre les côtés longitudinaux de la barquette et les retours longitudinaux de la coiffer Cette solution convient bien si les produits à conditionner sont de forme parallélépipédique, et occupent la totalité du volume intérieur de l'emballage.According to a third possibility, the tray has one side transverse of height equal to the height of the packaging, provided with two longitudinal returns, while the cap has the same structure as the tray, the bottom being however delimited by at least three sides, of which possibly a transverse side of the same height as the sides longitudinal, the tray and the cap being mounted head to tail and assembled by points, for example by gluing, between the sides of the tray and the longitudinal returns of the cap This solution is suitable if the products to be packaged are parallelepiped, and occupy the entire interior volume of packaging.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la coiffe comporte sur sa face supérieure et le long de ses arêtes verticales, du côté de la barquette ne comportant pas de côté transversal, une prédécoupe permettant d'arracher une partie de la face supérieure et la paroi d'extrémité correspondante de la coiffe. Cette caractéristique permet un autre mode de mise en oeuvre de l'emballage sur le lieu de vente, les articles demeurant dans l'emballage, et étant accessibles pour le consommateur par l'intermédiaire de l'ouverture ménagée dans une face en bout de l'emballage ainsi que dans une partie de la paroi supérieure de celle-ci.According to another characteristic of the invention, the cap has on its upper side and along its vertical edges, on the side of the tray not having a transverse side, a precut allowing to tear off part of the upper face and the wall corresponding end of the cap. This feature allows other mode of implementation of the packaging at the point of sale, items remaining in the packaging, and being accessible for consumer through the opening in one face in end of the packaging as well as in part of the upper wall of this one.

Au lieu d'arracher la paroi d'extrémité de la boíte, il est également possible d'ouvrir celle-ci par ouverture des rabats après décollage des points de fixation des rabats les uns sur les autres, ou fragmentation partielle de parties de rabats.Instead of tearing off the end wall of the box, it is also possible to open it by opening the flaps after take-off of the attachment points of the flaps on top of each other, or partial fragmentation of parts of flaps.

Selon une autre forme d'exécution de cet emballage, la coiffe est constituée par une demi-caisse américaine en deux parties disposées bout à bout, reliées l'une à l'autre de façon ruptible, au moins la partie de la coiffe située du côté ouvert de la barquette étant fixée par points, par exemple par collage, sur les côtés longitudinaux de la barquette. Dans ce cas encore, il est possible de n'enlever qu'une partie de la demi-caisse américaine pour permettre un accès aux articles par les consommateurs sur le lieu de vente.According to another embodiment of this packaging, the cap consists of an American half-body in two parts arranged end to end, connected to each other in a breakable way, at least the part of the cap located on the open side of the tray being fixed by points, by example by gluing, on the longitudinal sides of the tray. In this again, it is possible to remove only part of the half-body to allow access to articles by consumers on the place of sale.

Suivant enfin une autre forme d'exécution de cet emballage, la coiffe est constituée par un film de matière synthétique thermo-rétractable.Finally, according to another embodiment of this packaging, the cover consists of a film of heat-shrinkable synthetic material.

De toute façon, l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé représentant, à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, plusieurs formes d'exécution de cet emballage :

    • L'emballage représenté aux figures 1 à 7 est destiné au conditionnement d'un lot d'articles 2 de forme parallélépipédique. Cet emballage, réalisé entièrement en carton ondulé comprend une barquette 3 et une coiffe 4. La barquette 3 comprend un fond 5 de forme rectangulaire, délimité le long de ses deux bords longitudinaux par deux côtés 6 et le long de l'un de ses bords transversaux par un côté 7. La coiffe 4 comprend un fond 8 sensiblement de même surface que celle du fond de la barquette, prolongé par deux panneaux 9 de hauteur et longueur correspondant à celles de la coiffe, chaque panneau étant muni de deux retours 10, 12 destinés à former chacun une partie de l'une des parois transversales de la coiffe, y compris dans la zone de la barquette ne comportant pas de côté transversal. Le fond 8 comporte, le long de ses deux bords transversaux, deux pattes de collage 11 sur les retours 10, 12, destinées à assurer la tenue de la coiffe en position montée. Comme montré au dessin, la coiffe comporte, sur sa face supérieure, et le long de ses arêtes verticales, du côté de la barquette 3 ne comportant pas de côté transversal, une prédécoupe 13.The packaging shown in Figures 1 to 7 is intended for packaging of a batch of articles 2 of parallelepiped shape. This packaging, made entirely of corrugated cardboard, includes a tray 3 and a cap 4. The tray 3 comprises a bottom 5 of rectangular shape, delimited along its two longitudinal edges by two sides 6 and along from one of its transverse edges by one side 7. The cover 4 comprises a bottom 8 substantially of the same surface as that of the bottom of the tray, extended by two panels 9 of height and length corresponding to those of the cap, each panel being provided with two returns 10, 12 each intended to form part of one of the transverse walls of the cap, including in the area of the tray without side transverse. The bottom 8 comprises, along its two transverse edges, two bonding tabs 11 on the returns 10, 12, intended to ensure the holding the cap in the mounted position. As shown in the drawing, the headdress has, on its upper face, and along its vertical edges, side of the tray 3 having no transverse side, a precut 13.

    Dans la forme d'exécution représentée aux figures 1 à 7, la coiffe est destinée à venir s'emboíter autour des articles, à l'intérieur de la barquette 3. La coiffe est rendue solidaire de la barquette 3 par au moins deux points de colle 14 disposés entre les côtés longitudinaux de la barquette et les panneaux longitudinaux 9 de la coiffe, à proximité du bord de la barquette ne comportant pas de côté transversal. Sur le lieu de vente, l'opérateur peut procéder au retrait de la coiffe 4, par rupture des points de colle 14, comme montré à la figure 3.In the embodiment shown in Figures 1 to 7, the cap is intended to fit around the articles, inside the tray 3. The cover is made integral with the tray 3 by at least two glue dots 14 arranged between the longitudinal sides of the tray and the longitudinal panels 9 of the cap, near the edge of the tray with no transverse side. At the point of sale, the operator can remove the cover 4, by breaking the points of glue 14, as shown in figure 3.

    Suivant une première possibilité représentée à la figure 4, le côté transversal 7 de la barquette comprend des signes distinctifs 15 des articles à vendre, apposés sur sa face extérieure. Dans un tel cas, les articles peuvent être présentés en vente à l'intérieur de la barquette, le côté transversal 7 de la barquette étant tourné face au consommateur pour leur permettre de voir les signes d'identification des produits ménagés sur la face extérieure du côté transversal.According to a first possibility represented in FIG. 4, the transverse side 7 of the tray includes distinctive signs 15 of articles for sale, affixed on its external face. In such a case, the items can be presented for sale inside the tray, the side transverse 7 of the tray being turned towards the consumer for their allow to see the identification signs of household products on the external face of the transverse side.

    Si, au contraire, l'opérateur ne souhaite pas laisser la barquette visible tout en conservant les articles stockés dans la barquette, il peut placer face au consommateur l'extrémité de la barquette qui ne comporte pas de côté transversal, comme montré à la figure 5.If, on the contrary, the operator does not wish to leave the tray visible while keeping the items stored in the tray, it can place the end of the tray facing the consumer which does not contain no transverse side, as shown in figure 5.

    Suivant une autre possibilité, illustrée à la figure 6, l'opérateur peut ne pas conserver la barquette pour la présentation des articles sur le lieu de vente. Après avoir posé la barquette sur un rayon 16, le côté transversal de la barquette étant tourné du côté avant du rayon 16, l'opérateur peut, en retenant le lot d'articles avec une main, retirer la barquette par coulissement à l'aide de l'autre main, réalisant ainsi le transfert en un seul geste de la totalité du lot d'articles de la barquette sur le rayon. According to another possibility, illustrated in FIG. 6, the operator may not keep the tray for presenting items on the selling location. After placing the tray on a spoke 16, the side transverse of the tray being turned towards the front side of the spoke 16, the operator can, by holding the batch of articles with one hand, remove the tray by sliding with the other hand, thus achieving the transfer in a single gesture of the entire batch of items from the tray to the Ray.

    Suivant enfin une autre possibilité, l'opérateur peut ne pas désolidariser la coiffe de la barquette, et enlever la surface comprise à l'intérieur de la prédécoupe 13, dégageant ainsi l'extrémité de l'emballage située du côté ouvert de la barquette, ainsi qu'une partie de la face supérieure de cet emballage, comme montré à la figure 7. Le consommateur peut alors prendre les produits alors qu'ils sont encore conditionnés dans l'emballage. La même fonction pourrait être réalisée en ouvrant cette extrémité de l'emballage par désolidarisation des rabats ou fragmentation partielle de ceux-ci.Finally, according to another possibility, the operator may not detach the cap from the tray, and remove the surface included the inside of the precut 13, thus freeing the end of the packaging located on the open side of the tray, as well as part of the face top of this package, as shown in Figure 7. The consumer can then take the products while they are still packed in the packaging. The same function could be performed in opening this end of the packaging by detaching the flaps or partial fragmentation of these.

    La figure 8 représente une variante de l'emballage des figures 1 à 7, dans laquelle les mêmes éléments sont désignés par les mêmes références que précédemment. Dans ce cas, la coiffe 4 vient recouvrir la barquette 3. Les retours 10, 12 formant la paroi transversale de la coiffe, situés à l'extrémité de la barquette comportant un côté transversal 7, sont découpés pour ménager un évidement à la forme du côté 7 de la barquette, de telle sorte que les retours 10, 12 de la coiffe se trouvent dans l'alignement et sensiblement dans le même plan que le côté transversal 7 de la barquette.Figure 8 shows a variant of the packaging of Figures 1 to 7, in which the same elements are designated by the same references than before. In this case, the cap 4 covers the tray 3. The returns 10, 12 forming the transverse wall of the cap, located at the end of the tray having a transverse side 7, are cut to provide a recess in the shape of the side 7 of the tray, so that the returns 10, 12 of the cap are in alignment and substantially in the same plane as the transverse side 7 from the tray.

    Dans la forme d'exécution représentée à la figure 9, dans laquelle les mêmes éléments sont désignés par les mêmes références que précédemment, la barquette 3 comporte un côté transversal 17, de hauteur égale à la hauteur de l'emballage, muni de deux retours longitudinaux 18. La coiffe peut posséder la même structure que la barquette, ou bien posséder quatre côtés et notamment un côté transversal 19 de faible hauteur opposé à son côté transversal 17 de grande hauteur. La barquette et la coiffe sont montées tête-bêche et assemblées par points, par exemple par collage, entre les côtés longitudinaux 6 de la barquette et les retours longitudinaux 18 de la coiffe.In the embodiment shown in Figure 9, in which the same elements are designated by the same references as previously, the tray 3 has a transverse side 17, of height equal to the height of the packaging, provided with two longitudinal returns 18. The cap may have the same structure as the tray, or have four sides and in particular a transverse side 19 of weak height opposite its transverse side 17 of great height. The tray and the cap are mounted head to tail and assembled in points, for example by gluing, between the longitudinal sides 6 of the tray and the returns longitudinal 18 of the cap.

    Dans la forme d'exécution représentée à la figure 10, dans laquelle les mêmes éléments sont toujours désignés par les mêmes références que précédemment, la coiffe 4 est constituée par une demi-caisse américaine en deux parties 20 et 22 disposées bout à bout, reliées l'une à l'autre de façon ruptible, la partie 22 de la coiffe située du côté ouvert de la barquette étant fixée par des points de colle 14 sur les côtés longitudinaux 6 de la barquette. Dans un tel cas, il est possible soit d'enlever la coiffe en une seule pièce pour utiliser la barquette de la façon décrite en référence aux figures 4 à 6, soit d'enlever la partie 22 de la demi-caisse pour avoir accès aux articles, comme décrit en référence à la figure 7.In the embodiment shown in Figure 10, in which the same elements are always designated by the same references than before, the cover 4 is constituted by a half-body American in two parts 20 and 22 arranged end to end, connected to each other in a breakable manner, the part 22 of the cap located on the side open of the tray being fixed by dots of glue 14 on the sides longitudinal 6 of the tray. In such a case, it is possible either remove the cap in one piece to use the tray in the way described with reference to Figures 4 to 6, or to remove part 22 of the half-body to access the articles, as described with reference to the figure 7.

    La figure 11 représente un emballage comportant une barquette 3 du type de celle décrite en référence aux figures 1 à 7, et une coiffe 4 constituée par une demi-caisse américaine en un seul élément comportant quatre panneaux 24, 25 formant une ceinture et délimitant les quatre parois de la coiffe, les panneaux 24, 25 étant prolongés respectivement par des panneaux 26, 27, qui sont assemblés les uns aux autres pour former le fond de la caisse.FIG. 11 represents a package comprising a tray 3 of the type described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 7, and a cover 4 consisting of an American half-body in a single element comprising four panels 24, 25 forming a belt and delimiting the four walls of the cover, the panels 24, 25 being extended respectively by panels 26, 27, which are joined together to form the bottom of the box.

    Suivant encore une autre forme d'exécution non représentée au dessin, la coiffe pourrait être constituée par un film thermo-rétractable.According to yet another embodiment not shown in drawing, the cap could be constituted by a heat-shrinkable film.

    Comme il ressort de ce qui précède, l'invention apporte une grande amélioration à la technique existante en fournissant un emballage de structure simple et économique, dans la mesure où la quantité de carton est limitée, notamment en ce qui concerne la réalisation de la barquette, d'une utilisation très pratique pour l'opérateur, et susceptible d'une pluralité de mises en oeuvre différentes.As is apparent from the above, the invention provides a great improvement to the existing technique by providing a packaging of simple and economical structure, since the quantity of cardboard is limited, in particular with regard to the production of the tray, of a very practical use for the operator, and susceptible of a plurality of different implementations.

    Comme il va de soi, l'invention ne se limite pas aux seules formes d'exécution de cet emballage, décrites ci-dessus à titre d'exemples, elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes. C'est ainsi notamment que la forme des articles conditionnés n'est pas nécessairement parallélépipédique, que la forme des côtés de la barquette n'est pas nécessairement rectangulaire, et que la hauteur des côtés de la barquette peut être plus ou moins importante, sans que l'on sorte pour autant du cadre de l'invention.It goes without saying that the invention is not limited only to embodiments of this packaging, described above by way of examples, on the contrary, it embraces all its variants. This is how that the shape of the packaged items is not necessarily parallelepiped, that the shape of the sides of the tray is not necessarily rectangular, and that the height of the sides of the tray can be more or less important, without leaving the part of the invention.
