  • the present invention relates to a sachet for the packaging of wipes according to the preamble of claim 1, and in particular a case intended for contain and distribute products, for example wet wipes substantially in the form of folded sheet, arranged in a stack inside said case.
  • French patent FR1116257 describes a distributor of sheets of paper.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to provide an improvement to such sachets and to facilitate their industrial manufacturing.
  • the invention aims at everything particularly to improve the tightness and the behavior of the packaging pouch during openings and successive closings, avoiding deformation of the dispensing window and sachet, so as to preserve their structures and aspects.
  • the goal is to improve the tightness of the flap both before the first use, only after a succession of openings - closings, and ensure proper positioning of the flap on the window.
  • the invention relates in its most general acceptance a sachet for packaging wipes according to the main claim.
  • the sealing strip formed in particular by welding, ensures precise positioning of the flap, even after several opening and closing cycles, and guarantees the good sealing of the sachet.
  • the sachet is consisting of a sheet having two parts complementary forming the body of the envelope, the first part presenting a cut forming the window of distribution, the second part being extended by flap, the flap being integral with the edge of the envelope in two areas arranged on either side of the window.
  • the bag is formed of two superimposed films, the first presenting a cutout forming the window, the second having a flap and forming the back of the case.
  • the sachet has a bottom formed by welding and / or folding.
  • the front part of the bag has two legs arranged on either side of the window, these legs being folded down on the surface exterior of the first part and being covered by the Rabat.
  • the flap is covered with an adhesive coating on its entirety or in border which makes it capable of peeling off and sticking back several times.
  • the sachet consists of a film having a heat-sealable inner surface.
  • the sachet consists of a film with a surface polyethylene or polypropylene interior.
  • the front part has on either side of the window of lights for the weld the inner surface of the flap to the surface inside of the rear side.
  • the window has an edge arched upper, the central part being closest to the upper edge of the bag.
  • the window has two lateral edges diverging towards the edge upper part of the bag, and in that said lateral edges are connect with the upper edge by rounding.
  • the invention also relates to a method of manufacture of a sachet for packaging wipes having the general shape of an envelope with a wipes distribution window, this window being able to be closed by a flap, characterized in that it is welded the inner surface of the flap on the inner surface of the rear side of the bag, in at least two points arranged on either side of the window, near the edge top of the bag.
  • the sachet is assembled from an element forming the flap and the back of the bag and which comes from a first reel, and a second element forming the front side of the bag and which comes from a second coil.
  • the two elements are welded between them along the side, top and bottom edges.
  • the flap, the back and the front side of the bag comes from the same reel and are made from an element cut from said coil, said element being folded along its lower edge and higher.
  • the first embodiment described in reference to FIGS. 1 to 5 relates to a bag formed at from a single cut film to present a first part (1) and a second part (2) complementary.
  • the second part (2) is extended by a flap (3) whose shape is suitable for covering a cutout (4) forming a window.
  • the film is a complex multilayer film comprising a heat-sealable inner layer, for example polyethylene, an intermediate barrier layer such as aluminum and an outer layer of PVC, polypropylene, or PET screen printable, rotogravure, flexography, etc ...
  • the bag can be made from a complex film or from two complex films assembled.
  • the flap is an extension of the rear part of the bag on which an adhesive material is deposited repositionable.
  • This flap is welded to the front part and back of the bag allowing the flap never get out of its axis and therefore reposition itself systematically in front of the sachet opening window which is formed after the first opening by tearing off the material precut from said opening window.
  • the film is folded in a first line transverse (5), so as to superimpose the first part (1) and the second part (2).
  • the interior faces are welded along the side edges (7, 8).
  • the flap (3) is folded along a second transverse line (6) to come cover the window (4). It is fixed in two areas of fixing (9, 10) arranged on either side of the window (4) near the upper edge (11). This connection prevents complete opening of the flap and thus prevents tear in the flap.
  • the bag can also be made from two separate films as shown in Figures 5 and following.
  • a cut film (20) is superimposed having a window (4) with a second cut film (21) of complementary shape, extended by a flap (3).
  • the first film has two legs (21, 22) of on either side of the window (4). These legs (21, 22) are folded so that their inner surface comes in contact with the inner surface of the flap.
  • Figures 9 to 12 show another variant embodiment, in which the front face has lights (30, 31) placed on either side of the window (4). These lights (30, 31) allow contact between the inner surface of the flap (3) with the inner surface from the rear side through said lights. It is possible to weld the inner faces in contact for avoid opening the flap completely.
  • Figures 13 to 16 show a bag according to the invention in which the front panel has a window (4) is surmounted by a transverse strip (50) generally less than 20% of the width window height (4).
  • the flap is welded according to this mode of realization along this transverse strip (50).
  • the welding ensures the joining between a strip (52) of the flap (51) and said transverse strip (50). resulting from the cutout of the window remains stuck on the flap (51).
  • the adhesive material is deposited on the assembly of the flap (51). It can be constituted by an adhesive hot melt deposited on the flap by transfer or by a double-sided adhesive deposited on the flap.
  • Figure 17 shows another variant of production.
  • the window (100) is placed in the half upper of the front face (101).
  • the lower edge (103) of the window corresponds substantially to the center line (102) of the envelope.
  • the upper edge (105) has a arched shape.
  • the radius of curvature is between 3 and 10 centimeters for an envelope with a width of one ten centimeters (between 10 and 20 centimeters).
  • the lateral edges (106, 107) are divergent upwards, and form an angle of 30 to 45 ° from the vertical axis. They are connected to the upper edge (105) by segments (108, 109) curves, having a radius of curvature of a few millimeters.
  • the flap (110) is an extension of the back side.
  • a weld strip (111) provides the connection between the three thicknesses of complex film formed by the flap, front side and back side.
  • the flap is coated with a repositionable glue, possibly colored, for the most part, now the part of the film (112) corresponding to the window. This part of the film is surrounded by a line of breakage ensuring lifting when the first opening.
  • Glue is a generic term for designate adhesive materials in the form of glue, ribbons or metallic paints.
  • the adhesive can be removed by unwinder, by rollers, by spraying.
  • Figure 18 shows an unfolded view of the cutout for the manufacture of the case according to the preferred variant shown in Figure 17.
  • the cutout has a window (100) whose edge upper (105) is arched with a radius of curvature of 50 millimeters.
  • the side edges (106, 107) are also arched, with a greater radius of curvature, of 62.5 millimeters in this exemplary embodiment.
  • connection between the upper edge (105) and the lateral edges (106, 107) is produced by segments curves.
  • the front face (101) is extended by an element substantially rectangular (120) forming the bottom of the bag.
  • This bottom (120) has two arcuate lateral edges (121, 122) with a radius of curvature of 92.42 mm in the example described.
  • This bottom (120) is extended by the rear face (123).
  • the lateral edges of the front faces (101) and rear (120) are arched, with a radius of curvature of 96.5 millimeters.
  • the lateral edges of the bottom and the front faces and rear are overlapped and welded to form a waterproof assembly.
  • the flap (110) is extended by an element (125) non-adhesive semi-elliptical in shape, with a long axis transverse, so as to allow the capture of the end of the flap, and the opening of the bag.
  • the elliptical shape avoids creating discomfort when the bag is put in a pocket or purse.
  • a variant of the opening system consists of provide the bag with one or two valves. The opening is done by the pressure of the valve. The closure too. Indeed when the bag is opened, a pressure on the empty valve the bag of its air, which has the effect of pressing the flap on the opening window. The reopening takes place by a new pressure which reintroduces air into the bag.
  • the bag may have a bottom ensuring the holding vertical of the bag.
  • This bottom can be formed by folding or by welding. It can also be formed by a film additional, welded or glued to the film forming the sachet, or to the films respectively forming the front face and the face back of the bag.
