Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging assembly comprising a box and an object contained in this box.
  • the box is of the type comprising a body of square or rectangular section comprising a front panel and a rear panel connected by two side panels.
  • the front and back panels and the side panels are made by folding a sheet material, especially cardboard or similar material, the body of the box comprising at least one opening and an associated closing device.
  • the object presents, in particular a portion in contact with the front panel of the box.
  • the invention relates to the packaging of a lipstick case, in particular of cylindrical shape in a box proportioned to the dimensions of said case.
  • the closure device comprises on the one hand two side flaps produced by folding in the extension each of a side panel, each side flap having a front edge, located on the side of the front longitudinal panel, and on the other hand, a part forming a cover intended to be folded over the shutters lateral and produced by folding in the extension of the rear panel.
  • This cover further comprises a flap, produced by folding in the extension of the cover portion. The latter thus has a first edge connected to the rear panel and a second edge connected to the flap.
  • the flap When closing, the flap is intended to be inserted in a passage delimited between the front panel of the box and the front edge of the side flaps.
  • the side flaps are arranged to overlap before fitting the flap and have teeth intended to engage in a slot made in the junction zone between the flap and the lid.
  • the closing of the cover in particular the insertion of the flap between the front face of the box and a corresponding portion of the object, can be very delicate, in particular when it comes to carrying it out industrially using an appropriate tool. This is especially true when the box is sized so that the object can not move transversely inside the box.
  • makeup products such as cases of red to lips and similar products
  • makeup products are packed in a box with some play lateral and / or axial. This inevitably results, especially during transport, a "sloshing" of the case in the box, so that, in the case of a grape red contained in the case, it detaches from its support. So, due of its relatively soft consistency, the product is damaged and becomes unusable. Of even, a similar problem can arise with makeup products compacted.
  • the invention provides a means for easily introducing a closing flap between the front panel of a box and a portion corresponding to the object to be packaged in said box, and this in particular at using industrial tools.
  • a box in particular from cardboard, said box. comprising a front panel and a rear panel connected by two panels lateral, the box comprising at least one opening, and a device for associated closure.
  • the box contains an object whose cross section is such that it is substantially in contact with the front panel, in the vicinity of said opening, over only a portion of its width.
  • the closing device includes a cover portion, made by folding in the extension of the rear panel, and to be folded over said opening.
  • the cover portion is extended by a flap to be positioned, in the closed position of the cover, between the object and the front panel. This flap has a free edge, the profile of which is such that it promotes the interposition of said flap between the object and said portion of the panel before which the object is in contact with.
  • the free edge of the flap forms at least one projection, intended to be housed in a space formed between the object and the front panel, of a at least side of said contact portion.
  • this outgrowth is adjacent to an edge portion located at a distance from the cover portion, varying gradually.
  • said edge portion with progressive profile is suitable to come in progressive engagement with the object, when the lid is closed, and therefore promotes the interposition of the flap between the object and the front panel of the box.
  • the object when the box is in the closed position, the object is in contact or substantially in contact with the front panel, on only a central portion of the latter, the free edge of the flap forming two growths. These growths are then separated by a greater distance to the width of the portion of the front panel, in contact with which is the object.
  • central contact portion is meant a portion surrounded by two lateral portions with which the object is not in contact.
  • the two side portions are of substantially identical width, so that the contact portion between the front of the box and the object is centered on the face before the box.
  • the contact portion can be offset by either side of the box. It really depends on the configuration of the object to condition.
  • Such a contact portion can be tangential in the case of a object of circular section in a parallelepiped box, or extend over a larger width in the case of an hexagonal object, for example.
  • the cross section of the object has at least one portion of an arc of a circle, intended to be positioned in contact with the front panel of the box.
  • the object may have a cross section, oval, hexagonal or octagonal.
  • a recess in particular in the form of a "V", in trapezoid shape, or in the shape of an arc of a circle.
  • Such forms are indeed able to define a profile allowing to come in progressive engagement with the object to be conditioned, and to facilitate the insertion of the flap between the front panel of the box and object.
  • a progressive profile allows, during its implementation engagement of the latter with the object, to cause a slight separation of the object relative to the front face of the box, and thus facilitate the introduction of the lid flap between the object and the front of the box.
  • the free edge of the flap comprises in besides a profile progressively progressing from the cover part, in direction of a vertex of the corresponding outgrowth.
  • this profile is rounded and convex in shape.
  • the associated closure device may further comprise one or more two side flaps, made by folding in the extension of a panel side, or two side panels.
  • said flap is to be positioned, in the closed position of the cover, between a front edge of the side flap (s) and the front panel.
  • said object preferably consists of a case containing a make-up or care product, in particular lipstick, foundation, or lip care product.
  • the box it can be made in particular in one piece, by cutting, folding and gluing a blank from cardboard or a similar material, possibly plasticized, less than 2 mm thick.
  • FIG. 1 An assembly 1 in accordance with a first alternative embodiment of the invention is illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, and shows a box B in which is inserted a lipstick case E.
  • Box B is made by folding and cutting, as illustrated in FIG. 3, of a blank of sheet material, for example cardboard, possibly plasticized and coated with an exterior decoration.
  • An assembly strip 7 is produced on the lateral side of the front panel 3.
  • This assembly strip 7 is glued to the side flap 5 to form the body 2, after folding the blank F around parallel fold lines 10, 11 and 12 separating respectively the rear panel 4 of the left side panel 5, the panel right side 6 of rear panel 4 and front panel 3 of side panel 6.
  • the assembly strip 7 is connected to the front panel 3 by a fold line 13, parallel to the fold lines 10, 11 and 12 above, thus forming a sheath parallelepiped 2.
  • the sleeve 2 of the box has an opening upper 15 and a lower opening, not apparent in FIG. 1, a closure device 21, 22, 37, 40 being associated with the upper opening 15 and a similar closure device 21 ', 22', 37 ', 40' ( Figure 3) being associated with the lower opening.
  • the closure device comprises two lateral flaps 21 and 22, produced respectively in the upper extension of the side panels 5 and 6, and a cover 37 produced in the upper extension of the rear panel 4, between the side flaps 21 and 22.
  • the lower closure device similarly has two flaps side 21 'and 22', formed respectively in the lower extension of the side panels 5 and 6, and a cover 37 'formed in the extension bottom of the rear panel 4. It is understood that the closing device upper, according to the invention, may be different from the closure device inferior.
  • Each side flap 21, 21 'or 22, 22' is connected to one of the side panels 5, 6 associated, along a fold line 21a, 21a '; 22a, 22a ', perpendicular to fold lines 10 to 13 ( Figure 3).
  • each side flap 21 or 22 On either side of the associated fold line, each side flap 21 or 22 has side edges 21b, 22b; 21d, 22d cut at an angle, so that give the shutters a trapezoid shape. Near the fold line 21a, 21 a '; 22a, 22a ', and in the vicinity of the front panel 3, each flap has a bulge 21c, 21c '; 22c, 22c ', whose role will be explained later.
  • the covers 37, 37 ' are connected to the rear panel 4 along a first line folding 38, 38 '.
  • a second fold line 39, 39 ' is on the side opposite the first fold line, connecting each cover to a flap of closure 40, 40 '. This flap is intended to be housed just behind the end top of the front panel 3, after closing the box B.
  • each flap 40, 40 ' is provided with a recess of concave shape 50, 50 ′, produced according to the example considered under shape of an arc.
  • the edges side 52 of each flap On either side of the recess 50, 50 ', the edges side 52 of each flap have a rounded shape, thus defining, in combination with recess 50, 50 ', two relatively protuberances pointed 51, 51 '.
  • the protrusions 51, 51 ' are separated from each other by a distance d. Due to the configuration which has just been described, the outgrowths 51, 51 ', are separated by a portion of the edge located at a distance / varying progressively from the corresponding fold line 39, said distance passing by a minimum value halfway between the two outgrowths 51.
  • each flap 40, 40 ′ has a recess 40a, 40b on each side, slightly offset from the second fold line 39, 39 ', thus defining prominent tongues 37a and 37b.
  • these tabs bear against the upper (or lower) edge of the front panel 3.
  • the incisions 40a, 40b receive the portions projecting 21c, 21c '; 22c, 22c ', to consolidate the closure of the box B.
  • the object E to be packaged is a lipstick case, forming a cylinder of revolution.
  • the height of the box B corresponds substantially to the height of the case E. Its side walls have a dimensioned width for ensure the lateral wedging of the case, so that any sloshing of the case in the box is reduced to a minimum, especially during transport. Therefore, the case is in substantially tangential contact with the center of each of the four sides of box B.
  • the contact area between the object E and the front face 3 is represented by the reference D in Figure 1.
  • Contact area D extends from top to bottom in the middle of the panel before 3. Its width depends on the radius of the cross section of the object E. practical, for most cylindrical lipstick cases, this width is on the order of 2 to 4 mm. On either side of the contact area D are thus defined two volumes V, delimited by the periphery of the object, as well as by internal portions of the box, not in contact with the object.
  • the side flaps 21 and 22 are placed in the opening 15, as illustrated in FIG. 2, then the cover 37 is folded over the side flaps 21 and 22, the flap 40 is inserted between the portion upper part of the object E and the upper portion of the front panel 3.
  • the two protuberances 51 each engage in the volumes V, on either side of the contact zone D. that the interval d formed between the protuberances is greater than the width of the contact zone D, this conditioning step can easily be carried out.
  • the edge of the recess 50 engages progressively between the periphery of the case and the front panel 3, causing a slight separation of the case from the front face of the box. This spacing corresponds to the thickness of the cardboard constituting the flap.
  • the flap 40 is immobilized by clamping between the face internal of the front panel 3 and the corresponding portion of the case.
  • the tongues 21c, 22c come in engagement with the edges of the incisions 40a, 40b of the cover 37.
  • FIG. 3 shows a blank F produced in a single sheet, in particular of cardboard, allowing to obtain, by successive folding of the different parts and after bonding, the box which has just been described.
  • the box B is formed in the following manner. After folding the panels 3, 4, 5, 6, along lines 10 to 12, then by gluing tab 7 on an area located on a free edge 10a of the panel 5, a sheath 2 is obtained, general parallelepiped shape. This sheath 2 has two ends open 15, 15 '. Each of the side panels 5 and 6 is provided with two flaps 21, 22 and 21 ', 22', connected to the ends respectively of the side panels 5, 6, by fold lines 21a, 22a, and 21a ', 22a' respectively. The scabbard 2 can then be deployed.
  • the flaps 21' and 22 ' are folded down, then the cover 37 'is folded, along the first fold line 38'. Then, the flap 40 'is folded along the second fold line 39 'and inserted into the sleeve, on the side of the lower end of the sheath.
  • the sheath 2 After closing the lower end 15 ', the sheath 2 is ready to receive the case E to be packaged, as shown in Figure 1. According to the example considered, the case E is introduced into the sheath by the upper end 15.
  • the upper end 15 is closed by folding down the flaps 21 and 22. Then, the cover 37 is folded along the fold line 38. The flap 40 is folded along the fold line 39 and inserted into the sheath on the side of the end 15, as explained in detail above.
  • Figure 4 illustrates an alternative embodiment which differs from the embodiment described above in that the case E has an octagonal cross section, and in that the recess 50 of the flap 40 has a trapezoidal shape, flared towards its edge free.
  • the interval between the protuberances 51 has a width d 1
  • the small base of the trapezium has a width d 2 .
  • d 1 and d 2 so that the following equation is met: d1> D, with d1> d2 Under these conditions, the introduction of the flap between the case E and the internal face of the front panel 3 can be carried out easily.
  • Figure 5 illustrates a top view, similar to Figure 2, of a another variant of the assembly 1.
  • the case according to FIG. 5 has a section cross-section of substantially square shape, with rounded angles.
  • the walls sides of the case are slightly rounded, with a radius of curvature relatively high.
  • the contact area D, between the case E and the internal wall of the front panel 3 is wider than the area of contact illustrated in Figures 1 and 2.
  • the closing mechanism of the box B is substantially the same as that described with reference to the box of Figures 1 and 2.
  • FIG 6 illustrates another alternative embodiment of the flap conformation 40.
  • the cover 37 has only one projection 51, formed in the vicinity of a lateral edge of the flap and intended to come into engagement with only one of the volumes V, defined on either side of the area of contact D.
  • the lateral edge 52 of the flap 40, adjacent to the projection is slightly convex.
  • the width of the flap 50, from the projection 51 decreases gradually, according to a curved profile, towards the incision 40b.
  • the curvature is first concave in the part adjacent to the protuberance 51, then reverses and becomes convex in its part 52a, adjacent to the incision 40b.
  • the closing mechanism of the box B is substantially the same as that described with reference to the box in Figures 1 and 2.
