Abstract
Description
- the engagement of the hooks with the related seats does not prevent the opening of the case if the latter is subjected to energetic vertical shaking, for instance when agitating the package to mix the content of a bottle;
- if the case is mistakenly opened on the bottom, two drawbacks are encountered:
- a) there is no longer any support for the bottle which can exit the case and thus fall;
- b) the hook system is damaged and hence, after the subsequent re-closure of the box, the hooks may not engage and the fall-prevention function is no longer assured;
- in order to guarantee the coupling between the holding hooks and the seats provided, good precision is necessary in the production of the case by the supplier, along with an accurate check of the actual engagement after packaging by the downstream customers (such as the pharmaceutical industry, the pharmacist, the patient);
- no impact prevention is guaranteed, unless the container to be housed in the case is situated in an additional shock-absorbing case.
- Figure 1 is a plan view, at reduced scale and in its exterior face, of a die-cut element developed in plane, constituting a case structure according to the invention;
- Figure 2 is a front vertical view of a case erected from the die-cut element of Figure 1 and open at its extremities;
- Figure 3 is a front vertical view of a case erected from the die-cut element of Figure 1 and open at its extremities;
- Figure 4 is a cross section obtained according to the lines A-A of Figure 2 with housed container;
- Figure 5 is a cross section obtained according to the lines B-B of Figure 2 with housed container;
- Figure 6 is a longitudinal section obtained according to the lines C-C of Figure 3; and
- Figure 7 is a longitudinal section obtained according to the lines C-C of Figure 3 with housed container.
Claims (4)
- A structure for coardboard case able to prevent impacts and accidental discharges of a product container housed therein, constituted by a die-cut element (1) formed by a first part (10) with five portions (11,12,13,14, 21), set successively side by side, separated by transverse folding lines (112, 123, 134, 120) to constitute lateral exterior walls, (11, 12, 13, 14) of a case (1) with parallelepiped shape and a "glue point" (21), said four portions being provided, on longitudinally opposite sides, with two tabs (15,15,16,16) and, alternatively, with a tongue closure (17, 18) separated by said portions (11, 12, 13, 14) with longitudinal creases (115, 115, 117, 116, 116, 118) to constitute a bottom, a second part (20) connected to said fifth portion (21) of the first part (10) and respectively, a lid of the case, said second part (20) including set successively side by side and separated by transverse folding lines (212, 223, 234,245), four portions whereof:the second and fourth portions (23, 25) constitute, during the erection phase of the case, two "glue points" for connection with the opposite lateral walls (11, 13), provided with said tabs (15,15,16,16), of the first part (10) of the die-cut element (1); andthe first and the third portions (22, 24) constituting, after the erection of the die-cut element, two interior counter-walls parallel to the opposite exterior lateral walls (12, 14) of the first part (10), individually provided with said tongue closure (17, 18); characterised by: each interior counter-wall (22, 24) being lightened over its entire width by a slot (26, 26), superiorly contoured by a concave profile and inferiorly contoured by a rectilinear profile; said slot separating in the counter-wall itself a deformable superior septum (220, 240) for the lateral holding of a container (4) positioned inside the case (1) from a rigid inferior base (221, 241) extending between two lateral walls (11, 13) for supporting the container (4) itself; said counter-wall septa (220, 240) being provided with a series of transverse creases (2) incised in their central segments (3).
- A case structure as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that said septa (220, 240) are superiorly shaped according to a concave profile.
- A case structure as claimed in claim 2, characterised in that said concave profile of the septa (220, 240) is shaped as a circumference arc.
- A case structure as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that the folding lines (223, 234, 245) in the second part (20) of the die-cut element (1) between the first and the second portion (22, 23) between the second and the third portion (23, 24) and between the third and fourth portion (24, 25) are incised with predetermined fracture lines in correspondance with said septa (220, 240).
