Definitions
- the present invention relates to a packaging of a food product in the form of plate to consume the product.
- the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and proposes to develop a food product packaging to protect it, to receive the elements of decoration, brand and advertising, offering various presentation possibilities and allowing the presentation product is flat or standing and allowing, furthermore, to close the packaging.
- This packaging allows a preparation of the product and its sealing in the required hygiene conditions, the cup being closed by a film before being placed in the support and close the lid with its inviolability indicator.
- the packaging is used as what. To open it, it is sufficient to break the tamper-proof indicator and to tilt the lid. The assembly, thus open, is very stable since the cup rests on the feet and the open lid is an additional support. Thus, this packaging, especially for the feeding of young children, is likely to be reversed because of its relatively large support surface. Finally, the food portion contained in the cup is not consumed in full, it is possible to close the lid.
- the resealable lid is an excellent advertising medium given its large surface.
- the feet of the support make it possible to present the product on the sales surface either flat if the product rests on all its feet, or in standing position, the packaging then resting on two feet. This presentation is very attractive since the entire surface of the lid and the indications it carries are visible; it does not require any additional support in a rack or a linear sales area.
- the product can also be stored under the same conditions in the buyer.
- the feet are made at the junction of a branch and the hoop.
- This embodiment stabilizes the assembly formed by the support and reduces the amount of plastic material required for the manufacture of the support.
- the feet are of hollow conical shape, the large open base is formed on the side of the arch. This embodiment allows a particularly convenient and space-saving stack of supports with lids, before assembly to the cup. For this, the supports with cover are open flat and the different feet are nested in each other
- the taper of the feet slightly inclines the product in the "vertical" position and the length of the feet constitutes a sufficient bearing surface for this position to be stable.
- the hinge is formed of two parts each associated with a foot.
- This hinge has the efficiency and functionality of a long hinge corresponding to the spacing of the feet without the clutter.
- the closure device comprises a tamper evident indicator in the form of a tear-off tab, preferably made with the support, around the closure device to make it accessible only after tearing of this inviolability witness and the closing device is advantageously constituted by a tongue device such as a pawl.
- the support with its cover in one piece is made of a different material of the cup, for example a softer material and, preferably, colored. This combination allows for economical packaging.
- the invention relates to a food product packaging.
- This packaging consists of a cup receiving the food product and a support provided with a lid and a closure device 4.
- the support 2 and the lid 3 are made in one piece of plastics material.
- the cup 1 is a hollow part of usual shape, in particular molded plastic, having a cavity 10 having, for example, a rim 11 more or less wide.
- This cup 1 is housed in the support 2 and the assembly closes with the lid 3 folded on the support and the cup around the hinge 4.
- the cup 1 containing, in general, a prepared food product is closed by a not shown waterproof film, protecting the food product against oxidation or contamination by outside air.
- the support 2 and the cover 3 are made in one piece of injected plastic material.
- the support 8 consists of a bow 21 intended to surround the cup by coming under its edge. This hoop is provided, in this embodiment, with three curved branches 22a, 22b, 22c, joined by a central piece 23. The curvature of the three branches 22a, 22b, 22c corresponds to the shape of the cup 1.
- the arch 21 is also provided with feet 24a, 24b, 24c, here of frustoconical shape, hollow and of height at least equal to the height of the arch 21 with its branches 22a, 22b, 22c so that the support 2 rests on the feet 24a, 24b, 24c possibly in addition to the support of the central portion 23 joining the branches 22a, 22b, 22c.
- the feet 24a, 24b, 24c are connected to the hoop 21 by a flattened tab is integrated in the arch for one (24a) of the feet or overflowing the hoop for the other two feet 24b, 24c.
- These two tabs 25b, 25c at the same time carry a portion 51b, 51c of the double hinge 5, connecting the lid 3 to the support 2.
- bent branches 22a, 22b, 22c, the tabs 25a, 25b, 25c and the feet 24a, b, c are distributed around the hoop 21 in a non-equidistant manner, the tabs 25b, c being close together and they are diametrically opposed to the tab 25a, which is in fact located on the mediator of the segment connecting the tabs 25b, 25c.
- the arrangement of the branches 22a, 22b, 22c and that of the legs 24a, 24b, 24c corresponds to that of the legs.
- the close tabs 25b, c make it possible to produce the hinge 5 in two parts 51b, 51c whose axis passes outside the contour of the support 2 and the lid 3 so as not to hinder the tilting of the lid while having a hinge 5 long necessary for good pivoting.
- the lid 3 has two lugs 31b, 31c connected to the portions 51b, 51c of the hinge.
- the ears 31b, 31c preferably have a shape identical to that of the tabs 25b, 25c.
- the lid 3 is provided with an edge 32 intended to cap the ring 21.
- the detail of the junction appears most clearly in the sectional view of FIG. 5 showing the overlap of the lid 3 and of the hoop 21 of the support 2. This sectional view is made at the first foot 24a, opposite the two legs close together 24b, 24c on the hinge side 5.
- FIGS. 3A, 3B show more particularly the joining piece 23 between the three branches 22a, 22b, 22c connected to the hoop 21 and the empty part 231 in the center of this part 23.
- the ears 31b, 31c carried by the cover 3 which are connected by the hinge 5 made by a reduction in thickness of the plastic material, corresponding tabs 25b, 25c of the support 2 at the two legs close together 24b, 24c.
- the central portion 231 may also be full and receive a label.
- the domed-edge lid 3 has a flattened central portion 33 recessed from the outside to receive a label with a decorative element. Internally, it comprises here reinforcing gussets 35.
- FIG. 4 which is an axial section in perspective of the closed package in the absence of a cup, shows the overlap of the lid 3 and the support 2 as well as the complementary shape of the lugs 31b, 31c of the lid 3 covering the tabs 25b, 25c carrying the feet 24b, 24c of the support 2 at the hinge 5.
- These tabs and ears allow to shift the geometric axis of the hinge so that it does not cut the contour of the lid 3 and the ring 2.
- FIG. 5 shows in more detail the assembly of the support 2 and the cover 3 at the closure device 4, in a diametrically opposite position of the hinge 5.
- This closure 4 is constituted by a clipping means formed of a tongue 41 with a ramp pin 42 on which clings the tab 43 provided with the hole 44 bordering the lid 3.
- the assembly is surrounded by a tear-off tab 6 of tamper-proof which allows the engagement of the tongue 41 and its hooking behind the lug 42 but prohibits its release thus constituting a tamper evidence.
- FIG. 6 shows a perspective view from below of a support 2.
- This figure shows the conical shape of elliptical section of the feet 24a, 24b, 24c and the presence of reinforcing gussets 26a, 26b, 26c connecting the upper part of the legs to the branches 22a, 22b, 22c.
- This view does not represent the lid.
- the shape of the support and its hollow, conical, elliptical circular or even curved shaped legs allows the stacking of the supports with the open covers to facilitate their storage and reduce their size, especially for transport.
- gussets (26a, 26b, 26c) limits the depth of fitting of the supports and thus facilitates their separation for the introduction of the cup.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un conditionnement d'un produit alimentaire, en forme d'assiette permettant de consommer le produit.The present invention relates to a packaging of a food product in the form of plate to consume the product.
Parmi les multiples conditionnements de produits alimentaires, il en existe certains, par exemple en forme d'assiette ou de coupelle, emballés dans un suremballage en carton plié. Ce suremballage ne fait pas partie du conditionnement du produit proprement dit et, pour consommer le produit, il faut enlever ce suremballage qui ne constitue qu'un élément de présentation, il ne comporte pas de témoin d'inviolabilité et ne permette pas de refermer le conditionnement.Among the many food packages, there are some, for example in the form of plate or cup, packaged in a folded cardboard overwrap. This overpack is not part of the packaging of the product itself and, to consume the product, it is necessary to remove the overpack that is only a presentation element, it does not include tamper evidence and does not allow to close the conditioning.
Le document US 5860549 décrit un conditionnement d'un produit alimentaire, en forme d'assiette, permettant de consommer le produit, le conditionnement comprenant
- une coupelle recevant le produit alimentaire préparé,
- un support ayant
un arceau entourant le bord de la coupelle, par lequel le conditionnement repose sur un appui,
un pied porté par le fond du support, et,
une charnière - un couvercle relié à la charnière du support et coiffant l'arceau et la coupelle,
- un dispositif de fermeture porté par le support et le couvercle pour accrocher le couvercle au support,
- le support et le couvercle étant réalisé en une seule pièce en matière plastique, formant également la charnière.
- a cup receiving the prepared food product,
- a medium having
a hoop surrounding the edge of the cup, by which the packaging rests on a support,
a foot carried by the bottom of the support, and,
a hinge - a cover connected to the hinge of the support and covering the hoop and the cup,
- a closure device carried by the support and the cover for hanging the cover on the support,
- the support and the cover being made in one piece of plastic, also forming the hinge.
La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients et se propose de développer un conditionnement de produit alimentaire permettant de protéger celui-ci, de recevoir les éléments de décoration, de marque et de publicité, offrant diverses possibilités de présentation et permettant la présentation du produit soit à plat soit en position debout et permettant, en outre, de refermer le conditionnement.The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and proposes to develop a food product packaging to protect it, to receive the elements of decoration, brand and advertising, offering various presentation possibilities and allowing the presentation product is flat or standing and allowing, furthermore, to close the packaging.
A cet effet, l'invention concerne un conditionnement du type défini ci-dessus caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend
- une coupelle recevant le produit alimentaire préparé,
- un support ayant
- * un arceau entourant le bord de la coupelle,
- * des branches enveloppant le dessous de la coupelle et reliées à l'arceau,
- * de pieds portés par l'arceau, par lequel le conditionnement repose sur un appui et,
- * une charnière,
- un couvercle,
- * relié à la charnière du support et coiffant l'arceau et la coupelle,
- un dispositif de fermeture porté par le support et le couvercle à l'opposé de la charnière pour accrocher le couvercle au support,
- le support et le couvercle sont réalisés en une seule pièce en matière plastique, formant également la charnière.
- a cup receiving the prepared food product,
- a medium having
- * a hoop surrounding the edge of the cup,
- * branches wrapping the underside of the cup and connected to the arch,
- * of feet carried by the arch, by which the conditioning rests on a support and,
- * a hinge,
- a lid,
- * connected to the hinge of the support and covering the hoop and the cup,
- a closure device carried by the support and the lid opposite the hinge to hook the cover to the support,
- the support and the cover are made in one piece of plastic, also forming the hinge.
Ce conditionnement permet une préparation du produit et son scellement dans les conditions d'hygiène requises, la coupelle étant fermée par un film avant d'être placée dans le support et de refermer le couvercle avec son témoin d'inviolabilité. Le conditionnement est utilisé tel quel. Il suffit, pour l'ouvrir, de rompre le témoin d'inviolabilité et de basculer le couvercle. L'ensemble, ainsi ouvert, est très stable puisque la coupelle s'appuie sur les pieds et le couvercle ouvert constitue un appui supplémentaire. Ainsi, ce conditionnement, notamment destiné à l'alimentation des jeunes enfants, ne risque d'être renversé étant donné sa surface d'appui relativement importante. Enfin, la portion alimentaire contenue dans la coupelle n'est pas consommée intégralement, il est possible de refermer le couvercle.This packaging allows a preparation of the product and its sealing in the required hygiene conditions, the cup being closed by a film before being placed in the support and close the lid with its inviolability indicator. The packaging is used as what. To open it, it is sufficient to break the tamper-proof indicator and to tilt the lid. The assembly, thus open, is very stable since the cup rests on the feet and the open lid is an additional support. Thus, this packaging, especially for the feeding of young children, is likely to be reversed because of its relatively large support surface. Finally, the food portion contained in the cup is not consumed in full, it is possible to close the lid.
Le couvercle refermable constitue un excellent support publicitaire étant donnée sa grande surface. Les pieds du support permettent de présenter le produit en surface de vente soit à plat si le produit repose sur tous ses pieds, soit en position debout, le conditionnement reposant alors sur deux pieds. Cette présentation est très attractive puisque toute la surface du couvercle et les indications qu'elle porte sont visibles ; il ne nécessite aucun support supplémentaire dans un rayonnage ou un linéaire de surface de vente. Le produit peut également être rangé dans les mêmes conditions chez l'acheteur.The resealable lid is an excellent advertising medium given its large surface. The feet of the support make it possible to present the product on the sales surface either flat if the product rests on all its feet, or in standing position, the packaging then resting on two feet. This presentation is very attractive since the entire surface of the lid and the indications it carries are visible; it does not require any additional support in a rack or a linear sales area. The product can also be stored under the same conditions in the buyer.
Suivant une caractéristique avantageuse, les pieds sont réalisés à la jonction d'une branche et de l'arceau. Cette réalisation stabilise l'ensemble formé par le support et réduit la quantité de matière plastique nécessaire à la fabrication du support. De manière avantageuse, les pieds sont de forme conique creuse, la grande base ouverte est constituée du côté de l'arceau. Cette réalisation permet un empilage particulièrement pratique et peu encombrant des supports munis des couvercles, avant leur assemblage à la coupelle. Pour cela, les supports avec couvercle sont ouverts à plat et les différents pieds sont emboîtés les uns dans les autresAccording to an advantageous characteristic, the feet are made at the junction of a branch and the hoop. This embodiment stabilizes the assembly formed by the support and reduces the amount of plastic material required for the manufacture of the support. Advantageously, the feet are of hollow conical shape, the large open base is formed on the side of the arch. This embodiment allows a particularly convenient and space-saving stack of supports with lids, before assembly to the cup. For this, the supports with cover are open flat and the different feet are nested in each other
La conicité des pieds incline légèrement le produit en position « verticale » et la longueur des pieds constitue une surface d'appui suffisante pour que cette position soit stable.The taper of the feet slightly inclines the product in the "vertical" position and the length of the feet constitutes a sufficient bearing surface for this position to be stable.
De façon avantageuse, la charnière est formée de deux parties associées chacune à un pied. Cette charnière a l'efficacité et la fonctionnalité d'une charnière longue correspondant à l'écartement des pieds sans en présenter l'encombrement.Advantageously, the hinge is formed of two parts each associated with a foot. This hinge has the efficiency and functionality of a long hinge corresponding to the spacing of the feet without the clutter.
Le dispositif de fermeture comporte un témoin d'inviolabilité sous la forme d'une languette arrachable, réalisée de préférence avec le support, autour du dispositif de fermeture pour ne rendre celui-ci accessible qu'après arrachage de ce témoin d'inviolabilité et le dispositif de fermeture est avantageusement constitué par un dispositif à languette tel qu'un cliquet.The closure device comprises a tamper evident indicator in the form of a tear-off tab, preferably made with the support, around the closure device to make it accessible only after tearing of this inviolability witness and the closing device is advantageously constituted by a tongue device such as a pawl.
Enfin, de manière particulièrement avantageuse, le support avec son couvercle en une seule pièce sont réalisé en une matière différente de la coupelle, par exemple une matière plus souple et, de préférence, colorée. Cette combinaison permet de réaliser un conditionnement économique.Finally, particularly advantageously, the support with its cover in one piece is made of a different material of the cup, for example a softer material and, preferably, colored. This combination allows for economical packaging.

Selon les figures 1 et 2, l'invention concerne un conditionnement de produit alimentaire. Ce conditionnement se compose d'une coupelle recevant le produit alimentaire et d'un support muni d'un couvercle et d'un dispositif de fermeture 4. Le support 2 et le couvercle 3 sont réalisés en une seule pièce en matière plastiques. La coupelle 1 est une pièce creuse de forme habituelle, notamment moulée en matière plastique, comportant une cavité 10 ayant, par exemple, un bord 11 plus ou moins large.According to Figures 1 and 2, the invention relates to a food product packaging. This packaging consists of a cup receiving the food product and a support provided with a lid and a
Cette coupelle 1 est logée dans le support 2 et l'ensemble se ferme avec le couvercle 3 rabattu sur le support et la coupelle autour de la charnière 4.This cup 1 is housed in the
La coupelle 1 contenant, en général, un produit alimentaire préparé, est fermée par un film étanche non représenté, protégeant le produit alimentaire contre l'oxydation ou la contamination par l'air extérieur.The cup 1 containing, in general, a prepared food product, is closed by a not shown waterproof film, protecting the food product against oxidation or contamination by outside air.
Comme le montrent plus particulièrement les figures 3A-5, le support 2 et le couvercle 3 sont réalisés en une seule pièce en matière plastique injectée. Le support 8 se compose d'un arceau 21 destiné à entourer la coupelle en venant sous son bord. Cet arceau est muni, dans cet exemple de réalisation, de trois branches cintrées 22a, 22b, 22c, réunies par une pièce centrale 23. La courbure des trois branches 22a, 22b, 22c correspond à la forme de la coupelle 1.As shown more particularly in Figures 3A-5, the
L'arceau 21 est également muni de pieds 24a, 24b, 24c, ici de forme tronconique, creuse et de hauteur au moins égale à la hauteur de l'arceau 21 avec ses branches 22a, 22b, 22c de façon que le support 2 repose sur les pieds 24a, 24b, 24c éventuellement en plus de l'appui de la partie centrale 23 réunissant les branches 22a, 22b, 22c.The arch 21 is also provided with
Les pieds 24a, 24b, 24c sont reliés à l'arceau 21 par une patte aplatie soit intégrée dans l'arceau pour l'un (24a) des pieds, soit débordant de l'arceau pour les deux autres pieds 24b, 24c. Ces deux pattes 25b, 25c portent en même temps une partie 51b, 51c de la charnière double 5, reliant le couvercle 3 au support 2.The
Les branches cintrées 22a, 22b, 22c, les pattes 25a, 25b, 25c et les pieds 24a, b, c sont répartis autour de l'arceau 21 d'une manière non équidistante, les pattes 25b, c étant rapprochées et elles sont diamétralement opposées à la patte 25a, qui est en fait située sur la médiatrice du segment reliant les pattes 25b, 25c.The
La disposition des branches 22a, 22b, 22c et celle des pieds 24a, 24b, 24c correspond à celle des pattes.The arrangement of the
Les pattes rapprochées 25b, c permettent de réaliser la charnière 5 en deux parties 51b, 51c dont l'axe passe en dehors du contour du support 2 et du couvercle 3 de manière à ne pas gêner le basculement du couvercle tout en ayant une charnière 5 longue nécessaire au bon pivotement.The
De façon homologue, le couvercle 3 comporte deux oreilles 31b, 31c reliées aux parties 51b, 51c de la charnière. Les oreilles 31b, 31c ont de préférence une forme identique à celle des pattes 25b, 25c.Similarly, the
Le couvercle 3 est muni d'un bord 32 destiné à coiffer l'anneau 21. Le détail de la jonction apparaît le plus clairement dans la vus en coupe de la figure 5 montrant le chevauchement du couvercle 3 et de l'arceau 21 du support 2. Cette vue en coupe est faite au niveau du premier pied 24a, à l'opposé des deux pieds rapprochés 24b, 24c du côté de la charnière 5.The
Les figures 3A, 3B montrent de manière plus particulière la pièce de jonction 23 entre les trois branches 22a, 22b, 22c reliées à l'arceau 21 et la partie vide 231 au centre de cette pièce 23. Selon ces figures, les oreilles 31b, 31c portées par le couvercle 3 qui sont reliées par la charnière 5 réalisée par une réduction d'épaisseur de la matière plastique, aux pattes 25b, 25c correspondantes du support 2 au niveau des deux pieds rapprochés 24b, 24c. La partie centrale 231 peut également être pleine et recevoir une étiquette.FIGS. 3A, 3B show more particularly the joining
Le couvercle 3 à bord bombé a une partie centrale 33 aplatie, en creux vis-à-vis de l'extérieur pour recevoir une étiquette avec un élément de décoration. Intérieurement, il comporte ici des goussets de renforcement 35.The domed-
La figure 4 qui est une coupe axiale en perspective du conditionnement fermé en l'absence de coupelle, montre le chevauchement du couvercle 3 et du support 2 ainsi que la forme complémentaire des oreilles 31b, 31c du couvercle 3 couvrant les pattes 25b, 25c portant les pieds 24b, 24c du support 2 au niveau de la charnière 5. Ces pattes et oreilles permettent de décaler l'axe géométrique de la charnière pour que celle-ci ne coupe pas le contour du couvercle 3 et de l'anneau 2.FIG. 4, which is an axial section in perspective of the closed package in the absence of a cup, shows the overlap of the
La vue de la figure 5 montre de manière plus détaillée l'assemblage du support 2 et du couvercle 3 au niveau du dispositif de fermeture 4, dans une position diamétralement opposée de la charnière 5. Cette fermeture 4 est constituée par un moyen d'enclipsage formé d'une languette 41 avec un ergot à rampe 42 sur lequel vient s'accrocher la patte 43 munie du trou 44 bordant le couvercle 3. L'ensemble est entouré par une languette arrachable d'inviolabilité 6 qui permet l'engagement de la languette 41 et son accrochage derrière l'ergot 42 mais interdit son dégagement en constituant ainsi un témoin d'inviolabilité.The view of Figure 5 shows in more detail the assembly of the
La figure 6 montre une vue en perspective de dessous d'un support 2.FIG. 6 shows a perspective view from below of a

De façon générale, la forme du support et de ses pieds creux, coniques, de section circulaire elliptique ou même de forme incurvée permet l'empilage des supports avec les couvercles ouverts pour faciliter leur stockage et réduire leur encombrement, notamment pour le transport.In general, the shape of the support and its hollow, conical, elliptical circular or even curved shaped legs allows the stacking of the supports with the open covers to facilitate their storage and reduce their size, especially for transport.
La présence des goussets (26a, 26b, 26c) limite la profondeur d'emboîtage des supports et facilite ainsi leur séparation pour la mise en place de la coupelle.The presence of the gussets (26a, 26b, 26c) limits the depth of fitting of the supports and thus facilitates their separation for the introduction of the cup.
