Definitions

  • the present invention is in the field of techniques printing for packaging and its purpose is a new advertising insert, called “leaflet” intended to be inserted in a packaging of food product in particular, and its manufacturing process.
  • Such well-known packaging are for example those of "camembert” cheeses, consisting of a first leaf flexible itself made up of a combination of paper and a plastic film, and a cylindrical cardboard or wooden box; for example again the packaging of pre-cut pieces of meat found in "super markets”, consisting a closed expanded polystyrene tray, over the meat piece (s) that the tray contains, by a transparent film; we could cite examples wide variety of packaging in which the food product, generally moist in these cases, is confined, visible or not, in its packaging which we will seek a suitable seal.
  • a particularly economical production technique leaflet printing is its printing by continuous printing machines, called rotary, and delivering at the output of the chain a folded, shaped and cut leaflet, ie finished.
  • the flow pack technique requires carrying out first the prints and then take them up on a different machine for insert into sachets; these rather long and costly operations finally strike the cost of the product; further the heat-sealed edges of the ends take a place in the packaging which limits that of the printed part. For example if the sachet must be inserted in a Camembert type cheese box, it will have a overall length of about 80 mm; taking into account a heat seal of at least 10mm wide at each end of the bag, the length of the print is reduced to 55 or 60 mm, which significantly reduces the size of the message, advertising by example. Finally, the end consumer must take the trouble to open the flow-pack, for example with a pair of scissors, to read the information.
  • the film-coating technique as practiced so far is to apply a sheet of plastic on each individual sheet of the print. This makes it necessary to produce the print in several stages over several machines, or even at different or distant production sites; which translates again by low production rates, long manufacturing times with storage of intermediate products, and ultimately high costs.
  • this technique is very advantageous from the point of view of saving information space by compared to the flow pack technique.
  • it still has the disadvantage of driving to a leaflet whose automatic grip is less easy than that of the leaflet in flow pack, even impossible, due to the random nature of its size (possibility of spontaneous opening or unfolding or under the action of a gripping organ); in other words, the leaflet must be placed manually in the packaging.
  • leaflet has not yet been proposed leaving film-coated, or otherwise insulated, and finished with a printing and shaping line continuous comprising a rotary printing machine, and the gripping of which can be automated reliably.
  • the present invention thus has two objects: on the one hand products, said documents, or leaflets, and on the other hand a production process of leaflets and the products obtained according to the process, some of these products meeting to the definition of the first object.
  • a printed laminated shaped document comprising at least two so-called external sheets, or sheets, of which at least the external faces are coated
  • a flap characterized in its generality in that it comprises, extending the edge said end of at least one of said two cover sheets, a flap, too film-coated on at least its outer face, said flap comprising repositionable glue on its inner face so as to give it, being folded down on the outer face on the other cover sheet, a clasp function to keep plated against each other said at least two sheets and to give the document a defined size allowing its mechanical grip.
  • film-coated faces is meant the fact that the faces are coated with an adhesive film of plastic, which as said above is known from the prior art, but by a sheet-by-sheet process.
  • shaped document we mean that the document does not require any other treatment, that it is ready to use, in particular that it has its cutouts, straight or curved, top or bottom, finish and presentation.
  • Repositionable glue means a substance whose adhesiveness allows the end consumer to open the leaflet several times in lifting the shutter, and closing it without risk of tearing the leaflet.
  • the definition of the document of the invention includes the fact that the document can be printed on either side of its leaflets, which is generally sought after since it is, for a given cost, communicate as much information as possible, but also the fact that faces of sheets other than cover may be laminated; this will for example be the case of a document intended to be placed in packaging with a very high humidity or a biologically aggressive environment.
  • said document being of the kind made up of two sheets linked and articulated by a fold, and film-coated on at least their face appearing as external when they are folded one on the other, the said flap is folded down on the outside of the other sheet; we understand that this is the document the simplest meeting the definition of the invention.
  • the document being of the kind consisting of several linked and articulated "booklet” sheets, including two cover sheets film-coated at least on their face appearing to be external when they are folded over each other, the said flap is folded over the outer face of the other cover sheet.
  • the said document being of the kind consisting of several articulated sheets in "rolled fold", including two external sheets film-coated on their side, appearing to be external when folded down on each other, the said flap is folded over the outside of the other sheet of blanket.
  • said document being of genre consisting of several odd-numbered leaves articulated in "accordion", of which two external sheets laminated on their face appearing as external when are folded over each other, it has two flaps, each along the end edge of a said cover sheet, each of the said flaps being folded down on the outside of the other cover sheet.
  • a document 1 says leaflet due of its destination is of the booklet type and has four sheets such as 2 or 3; the sheets generally result from the folding of a double sheet; the two internal sheets 3 are fixed by gluing, for example along their fold line; the sheets outer 2 are called cover and, in the drawing, their outer faces 4 are turned upwards. In general, all sides of the sheets are printed.
  • Figs. 3 and 4 are schematically similar to that of fig.2, respectively a leaflet in "rolled fold” 8, and a leaflet “in accordion” 9, both with four leaves.
  • leaflets of the previous figures can come from continuous production behind a press.
  • any of leaflets 1, 8 or 9 have been placed under "flow-pack", that is to say in a sachet 11 closed by heat sealing in 110 and it appears that the dimensions of the leaflet must be smaller than those of the bag at least the width of the heat seal.
  • the need for this provision under flow-pack results, as stated above, from hygiene requirements of a on the one hand, and mechanization of gripping on the other.
  • a leaflet 10 according to the invention of the booklet type with two sheets 11 and 12, therefore external or of cover, is characterized in its structure by the existence of a flap 13, with a clasp function, extending, on its end edge, one of the cover sheets, and by external faces laminated sheets including the outside of the flap 13.
  • a line of repositionable glue 4 keeps the flap in the folded position above the sheet of cover 11.
  • Each station is thus, respectively, the seat a printing, plating or laminating, folding, folding, gluing operation (glue), folding, cutting and it should be understood that the whole of the posts described above forms a chain for manufacturing leaflets, a chain of which the arrangement depends on the type of leaflet to be obtained. But this is an approach of engineering quite usual to the man of the art of modern continuous printing, as soon as the present filming rules are given by these specifications continuously and applying glue on one or two side parts provided at this end to constitute a clasp.
  • Fig. 11 schematically illustrates a leaflet 60 analogs to that of fig. 3, that is to say in a rolled fold with four sheets, but comprising the attributes of the invention, namely a film coating 62 on the outer face of its external sheets 63, 64 of cover and a flap 65 with an extended clasp function the end edge 66 of the sheet 63 on which are folded and folded over one another two internal sheets 61.
  • Fig. 12 schematically illustrates a leaflet 70 in accordion differing from that of fig. 4 in that on the one hand it has a number odd of sheets, namely three, of which two external cover sheets 71, 72 and one internal sheet 73, on the other hand in that the external sheets have their external face respectively 74, 75, film-coated, and are each extended by a flap, respectively 76, 77 with clasp function.
  • the leaflet also differs from that of fig. 4, in that that it was obtained according to the method of the invention.
  • Fig. 13 schematically illustrates a leaflet 80 also pertaining to the invention, but only by virtue of its obtaining according to the process in the most general definition of it.
  • This leaflet is only made up a simple sheet 81 laminated on one side 82 which may or may not be printed printed but which will be the side intended to be in contact with the wet product, and in the latter case the printed side will be the other side 83, not film-coated.
  • FIGS. 9 to 12 We will understand that it is for better readability and understanding of FIGS. 9 to 12 that the leaflets are shown there ajar, but that in reality they are closed by their clasp, as represented in figure 8, and as defined in the claims.
