Definitions

  • the invention relates to a substantially rigid packaging shell of a product, defining at least a partial housing volume of the produced, and closed by a lid.
  • Such shells are known for the packaging of cheeses, for example by the documents EP 0952093, FR 2 773 137 or FR 2 786 471.
  • the lid is substantially rigid and can be detach from the shell to access the product.
  • the lid is a flexible seal that is detached from the shell. In either case, access to the product in the hull is not always satisfactory, especially if, for example, the product tends to stick to the walls hull; once the lid is removed, it remains to extract the product from the shell. In the case of a food product, this extraction is not necessarily very hygienic or can soil the fingers.
  • the US document 3521805 shows a wrapping shell closed with a film and whose shape makes that by folding it with the fingers, we break a shaped part the neck of the shell, which allows the product to be distributed which is necessarily in fluid form (powder, liquid or paste).
  • the documents DE 7607897U, US 4266667 and US 3075639 shows type packages "blister packs" more or less articulated, intended to contain non such as sterile pencils or needles, but unsuitable for problem of food products such as cheese that we do not want touch with your fingers.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a package of the type defined above which allows easy access to the product contained in the hull, without having to touch said product, in particular for a solid product such as cheese.
  • the invention achieves its goal thanks to a packaging shell substantially rigid product, defining a volume of housing at less partial of the product having an opening closed by a lid flexible disposed on an annular marginal region of the hull, the hull being made in at least two parts joined by an opening zone easy, easily separable at least partially and that can deviate on the opposite side to the lid, articulating with the neighboring region of the opening of the hull, characterized in that the hull is substantially hemisphere and the zone is an equatorial zone.
  • the zone of easy opening is an area weakened, for example thinned, or an open area covered with tear tape.
  • the invention applies preferably to the conditioning of food products, such as cheese or portioned salted foods that it is easy to eat without getting dirty.
  • the shell 1 has an open median equatorial zone 8 separating the shell into two symmetrical half-shells 1a, 1b joined by the border 2.
  • Zone 8 is covered externally by a band 9 of which at least one end 10 forms a tongue which can be entered manually.
  • Band 9 protrudes from both sides (or from one side) of the open zone 8 to be secured to each of the two half-shells 1a, 1b.
  • the band 8 can be put in place at the time of molding of the hull, according to the known techniques of laying labels in molds. When in place, it tightly closes area 8 and therefore allows the filling of the product 7.
  • the consumer To access the product, the consumer enters the tab 10 and pulls, which takes off the band 9 and clears the open area 8.
  • the two hulls are only joined together by the border 2 and 6.
  • the consumer can then, with one hand if he wants to rotate the two half-shells 1a, 1b substantially around the diameter 11 located at the intersection of the plane of the equatorial zone 8 and the border 2, so as to show the product 7 whose bottom is supported on the operculum 6.
  • the articulation of the two half-shells is easy in the the operculum is flexible and does not interfere with the movement and where the Border 2, though more rigid, is relatively narrow.
