Abstract

The package has two internal flaps (4) that are articulated by scoring on two parallel walls (2). Two external flaps (3) have a part (5) that is folded against a face of the external flaps, which are turned towards the interior of the package. Tabs (7) project from the walls such that in a folded position of the external flaps, the tabs engage between the external flaps and the part to lock them in position.

Description

La présente invention concerne un conditionnement en un matériau semi-rigide, tel que le carton ou le carton ondulé, dans lequel des volets du type dit "rabats", articulés par des refoulages sur deux parois parallèles, peuvent être verrouillés dans une position rabattue perpendiculairement aux parois attenantes, pour maintenir le conditionnement en position fermée, et peuvent être redressés par rapport à ces parois pour l'amener en position d'ouverture. L'invention a plus particulièrement pour objet un conditionnement de ce type dans lequel, après ouverture de l'emballage, les volets peuvent être ramenés en position de fermeture et maintenus dans cette position.The present invention relates to a packaging in one semi-rigid material, such as cardboard or corrugated board, in which shutters of the type called "flaps", articulated by upsets on two parallel walls, can be locked in a folded position perpendicular to the adjoining walls, to maintain the conditioning in the closed position, and can be straightened by relative to these walls to bring it into the open position. The invention more particularly for object a packaging of this type in which, after opening the package, the flaps can be brought back in the closed position and held in this position.

De très nombreux emballages en carton ou carton ondulé comprennent des rabats de ce type. C'est en particulier le cas des caisses dites américaines, dans lesquelles deux rabats internes articulés par des refoulages sur deux parois parallèles, peuvent être amenés dans une position perpendiculaire à ces parois dans un même plan, tandis que deux autres rabats ou rabats externes, articulés par des refoulages sur deux parois perpendiculaires aux précédentes, peuvent être rabattus perpendiculairement à celles-ci pour venir au contact de la face des rabats internes non tournée vers l'intérieur de l'emballage, après remplissage de celui-ci.Very many packaging in cardboard or corrugated cardboard include flaps of this type. This is particularly the case so-called American boxes, in which two internal flaps articulated by upsets on two parallel walls, can be brought into a position perpendicular to these walls in the same plane, while two other flaps or external flaps articulated by ups and downs on two walls perpendicular to the previous ones, can be folded perpendicular to them to come to contact of the face of the inner flaps not turned towards the inside of the packaging, after filling it.

Les rabats externes sont en général verrouillés dans cette position - de fermeture par divers moyens connus dans la technique, par exemple à l'aide d'un ou de plusieurs rubans adhésifs, mais, une fois ouverts, ces emballages présentent l'inconvénient qu'il n'est pas possible de les ramener en position de fermeture en maintenant de façon simple les rabats en position rabattue.The outer flaps are usually locked in this position closing by various means known in the art, for example using one or more adhesive tapes, but once opened, these packages have the disadvantage that it is not possible to bring back to the closed position by keeping in a simple way the flaps in folded position.

La présente invention vise à remédier à cet inconvénient en proposant un moyen simple pour maintenir les rabats en position rabattue, après la première ouverture de l'emballage, et qui se prête ainsi à des ouvertures et fermetures répétées de l'emballage.The present invention aims to remedy this drawback by providing a simple way to keep the flaps in position folded, after the first opening of the packaging, and lends itself thus to repeated openings and closings of the package.

La présente invention a par conséquent pour objet un conditionnement en un matériau semi-rigide tel que le carton ou le carton ondulé, du type défini ci-dessus, c'est-à-dire dans lequel deux rabats internes articulés par des refoulages sur deux parois parallèles, peuvent être amenés dans une position perpendiculaire à ces parois dans un même plan, tandis que deux autres rabats ou rabats externes, articulés par des refoulages sur deux parois perpendiculaires aux précédentes, peuvent être rabattus perpendiculairement à celles-ci pour venir au contact de la face des rabats internes non tournée vers l'intérieur de l'emballage, cet emballage étant caractérisé en ce que les rabats externes comportent une partie articulée sur eux par un refoulage et repliée contre la face de ces rabats tournée vers l'intérieur du conditionnement, tandis que des languettes font saillie à partir des parois auxquelles sont attenants les rabats internes en une position telle qu'en position rabattue des rabats externes, elles puissent être engagées entre ces rabats et la partie de ceux-ci repliée contre eux, afin de les verrouiller en position.The present invention therefore relates to a packaging in a semi-rigid material such as cardboard or corrugated cardboard, of the type defined above, that is to say in which two internal flaps articulated by upsets on two parallel walls, can be brought into a position perpendicular to these walls in the same plane, while two other flaps or external flaps, articulated by upsets on two walls perpendicular to can be folded perpendicular to them for come into contact with the face of the internal flaps not facing inside the package, this package being characterized in that the outer flaps have a part hinged to them by a pushed up and folded against the face of these flaps facing inwards conditioning, while tabs protrude from the walls to which are attached the internal flaps in one position as in the folded position of the outer flaps, they can be engaged between these flaps and the part thereof folded against them, so to lock them in position.

Pour avoir accès au conteneur du conditionnement, il suffit donc d'extraire les languettes de leur position d'engagement entre les rabats externes et la partie de ceux-ci repliée contre eux, pour libérer ces rabats et pouvoir les redresser, ainsi que les rabats internes.To access the packaging container, it is sufficient to extract the tabs from their engagement position between the flaps external parts and the part of them folded against them, to release these flaps and straighten them, as well as the internal flaps.

Les opérations d'ouverture et de fermeture du conditionnement peuvent ainsi être répétées à diverses reprises ce qui est particulièrement avantageux.The operations of opening and closing the packaging so can be repeated repeatedly what is particularly advantageous.

Les parties repliées des rabats externes peuvent avantageusement être rendues solidaires de ceux-ci, par collage par exemple, mais ceci n'est nullement impératif, puisque ces parties prennent appui sur les rabats internes.The folded portions of the outer flaps can advantageously to be made integral with them, by gluing for example, but this is not imperative, since these parties rely on the internal flaps.

Les rabats externes et internes ainsi équipés de moyens de verrouillage constituent avantageusement la partie supérieure du conditionnement, tandis que la partie de fond opposée peut être de n'importe quel type connu dans la technique.The external and internal flaps thus equipped with means of advantageously constitute the upper part of the conditioning, while the opposite substantive part may be of any type known in the art.

Une forme de réalisation d'un tel conditionnement en carton ondulé va être décrite ci-après plus en détail, en référence aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels :

  • La figure 1 est une vue partielle en perspective de la partie supérieure de l'emballage en position ouverte ;
  • La figure 2 est une vue analogue, avec les rabats en position de fermeture, illustrant le mode de verrouillage de ceux-ci dans cette position.
    • An embodiment of such corrugated packaging will be described in more detail below, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
  • Figure 1 is a partial perspective view of the upper part of the package in the open position;
  • Figure 2 is a similar view, with the flaps in the closed position, illustrating the locking mode thereof in this position.

    • Comme on le voit sur les dessins, le conditionnement représenté a une section transversale rectangulaire et comprend deux parois parallèles 1, articulées par des refoulages parallèles sur deux autres parois parallèles 2.As can be seen in the drawings, the packaging shown has a rectangular cross-section and includes two walls parallel 1, articulated by parallel upsets on two others parallel walls 2.

    Les bords supérieurs des parois 1 et 2 sont situés dans un même plan perpendiculaire aux refoulages par lesquels ces parois sont articulées entre elles et, suivant ces bords, deux rabats externes 3 sont articulés sur les parois 1 et deux rabats internes 4 sur les parois 2.The upper edges of walls 1 and 2 are located in the same plane perpendicular to the ups and downs by which these walls are articulated together and, following these edges, two external flaps 3 are articulated on the walls 1 and two internal flaps 4 on the walls 2.

    Conformément à l'invention, une partie 5 des rabats externes 3 articulée sur le reste de ces rabats par un refoulage est repliée contre la face de ceux-ci tournée vers l'intérieur du conditionnement et éventuellement rendue solidaire de cette face, par collage par exemple, tandis qu'une patte 6, découpée dans chacune des parois 2, comporte deux languettes en saillie 7, articulées par un refoulage sur le reste de la patte, en une position telle qu'en position rabattue des rabats supérieurs 3, elles puissent être engagées entre ces rabats et la partie repliée 5, pour les verrouiller en position.According to the invention, part 5 of the outer flaps 3 articulated on the rest of these flaps by a push-up is folded against the face of these turned towards the inside of the packaging and possibly made integral with this face, for example by gluing, while a tab 6, cut in each of the walls 2, comprises two protruding tabs 7, articulated by an extrusion on the rest of the tab, in a position such that in the folded position of the flaps higher 3, they can be engaged between these flaps and the part folded 5, to lock them in position.

    Ce système particulièrement simple permet d'ouvrir et de refermer le conditionnement à diverses reprises, sans aucun problème.This particularly simple system allows you to open and close conditioning at various times, without any problem.

    Comme il a été indiqué ci-dessus, le fond du conditionnement peut être absolument quelconque et c'est la raison pour laquelle il n'a pas été représenté sur les dessins.As noted above, the bottom of the package can to be absolutely unspecified and that's why it was not shown in the drawings.
