Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of sachets or sheets equipped with closure or attachment assemblies.
  • closure assemblies are known composed of two support webs which respectively carry complementary male / female elements opposite at the mouth of the bag.
  • functionally equivalent closure assemblies comprising hooks on sails intended to be positioned opposite the level of the mouth of the bag.
  • closure or fastening assemblies made of polyolefins, mainly polyethylene and polypropylene.
  • polyolefins mainly polyethylene and polypropylene.
  • these sets after extrusion, and before fixing on films intended to compose the bags or sheets, are generally wound on circular coils, for storage purposes.
  • the polymers thus used have an elastic memory of their transformation conditions and recrystallize over time through different phases and under different types of crystallites.
  • the present invention aims to improve the situation.
  • the present invention proposes a closure or attachment assembly intended to equip the mouth of a packaging bag or a sheet, said closure or fastening assembly comprising at least one support veil which carries a closure or hooking element, characterized in that it comprises sequential cuts covering a part of the width of the support web, on the outside of the closure or fastening element, distributed over the length of the together, to eliminate the effects of warping, curvature or pitching of the assembly.
  • the aforementioned sequential cutouts open on a slice of the support webs of said sets, that is to say on the thin edge thereof.
  • the sequential cuts may be made on an intermediate zone of the support webs of said assemblies, ie between the two lateral edges thereof, without opening onto these slices.
  • the sequential cuts are carried out at the pitch of the bags.
  • the sequential cuts can be made with a pitch that is very different from that of the bags if the means for fixing the assemblies on the films forming the said sachets make it possible to guarantee good contact between the said sets and the said films, including in the vicinity of these cuts.
  • the present invention also relates to sachets and sheets obtained using the aforementioned closing and fastening assemblies,
  • FIG. 1 shows a closure or fastening assembly 10 according to the present invention capable of equipping the mouth with a packaging bag or sheets and formed of two complementary sections 12, 14 provided by example complementary male / female elements 122, 142 or complementary hooks 124, 144 carried by support webs 120, 140.
  • the two sections 12, 14 are each provided with cutouts 13, 15, in the webs 120, 140, on the outside of the attachment elements 124, 144.
  • These cutouts 13, 15 may be formed at the pace p bags.
  • the distance p separating two cuts 13 or 15 on the profiles 12, 14 is in this case equal to the width of the mouth of the bags on which the profiles are intended to be fixed.
  • the sequential cuts 13, 15 can be made with a pitch very different from that of the bags if the means for attaching the profiles to the films forming said bags make it possible to ensure good contact between said profiles 12, 14 and said films, including in the vicinity of these cuts, ie if the fastening means prevent a detachment of the profiles 12, 14, at this level.
  • the cuts 13, 15 have a rectangular contour. However this provision is not imperative.
  • the cutouts 13, 15 all open onto the same slice of profiles 12, 14. They extend between this slice and an area adjacent to the fastening elements 124, 144, without extending beneath them.
  • FIG. 8 an embodiment variant is shown in FIG. 8 according to which the cuts 13, 15 are made on an intermediate zone of the webs of the profiles, that is to say between the two lateral edges 30, 32 of these, without opening on these slices and again without extending under the fastening elements 122, 142.
  • the cuts 13, 15 have a width greater than their height h.
  • FIG. 2 shows a variant of a closure assembly according to the present invention which differs from the first embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1 by the fact that the cutouts 13, 15 formed in the sails 120, 140 have a very small width and correspond to nicks of small width which extend perpendicularly to the edge of the profiles 12, 14. Where appropriate the notches 13, 15 illustrated in Figure 2 may be formed of a simple incision, without removal of material.
  • FIG. 3 shows an exemplary embodiment of known closure profiles in which the profiles 12, 14 respectively comprise a web 120, 140 carrying one male element 122, the other a complementary female element 142. From FIG. such closure profiles being well known to those skilled in the art are given here for illustrative purposes and will not be described in more detail later.
  • FIG. 4 shows another variant of a closure assembly in which the two sections 12, 14 each comprise a web 120, 140 carrying hook-type complementary elements referenced 124, 144.
  • a closure assembly being well known to those skilled in the art is given for illustrative purposes and will not be described in more detail later.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show two variant embodiments respectively similar to FIGS. 3 and 4 in which one of the webs 120 extends only on one side of the closure elements 122, 124. Such a variant is equally well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail later.
  • FIG. 7 in cross section, the basic structure of a slider capable of equipping the aforementioned closure assemblies.
  • This slider 20 comprises a sole 22 provided with two lateral flanks 24, 26 and a central wall 28.
  • the wall 28 and the lateral flanks 24, 26 define between them two channels 27, 29, nonparallel.
  • the channels 27, 29 converge towards an axial end of the slider.
  • the channels 27, 29 are intended to receive respectively one of the profiles 12, 14.
  • closure profiles 12, 14 concerning the present invention, equipped with cutouts 13, 15 and, where appropriate, with a slider 20 can be associated with any type of film capable of producing a packaging bag or sheets, in particular but not exclusively plastic films or even composites.
  • attachment of the closure or fastening sections 13, 15 to these films can be achieved by any appropriate means, preferably by thermal welding.
  • the height h of the cuts 13, 15 is preferably between 1/3 and 1/10 th of the height h0 of the closure profiles 13, 15.
  • the cuts 13, 15 are oriented perpendicularly to the edges 30, 32 of the closure profiles.
  • FIG. 9 illustrates a variant embodiment in which the cutouts 13, 15 are oblique with respect to the edges 30, 32.
  • the cutouts 13, 15 open onto an edge 30 of the closure profiles.
  • the oblique arrangement of the cutouts illustrated in FIG. 9 is also applicable in the case where, as indicated above, the cutouts do not open on one edge of the closure profiles but extend between them (as illustrated schematically in FIG. 8).
  • the oblique cuts 13, 15 illustrated in Figure 9 are inclined at an angle ⁇ of the order of 30 to 60 ° relative to the edge 30 of the profiles.
  • closure profiles illustrated in FIG. 9 are adapted to be displaced in the direction illustrated by the arrow referenced D in FIG. 9 so that a guide or support fixed relative to which the closure profiles are thus displaced first sees the end 130 of the cuts 13, 15 located towards the inside of the closure profiles and lastly, the free edge 132 of the cutouts which opens on the wafer 30.
  • the closure profiles do not have an edge acute attack but only obtuse angles facing the aforementioned guide or support, which avoids any risk of attachment between the closure profiles and guides or associated supports.
  • the oblique arrangement of the cutouts illustrated in FIG. 9 is thus particularly advantageous when the closure profiles are moved in a guide for their attachment to the films for making the bag.
  • the cutouts 13, 15 have parallel edges, where appropriate without removal of material as mentioned above.
  • FIG. 10 shows a variant embodiment in which the cutouts 13, 15 have edges 134, 135, 154, 155 that are not parallel to one another.
  • the cut-outs 13, 15 form dihedrams whose concavity is directed and open towards the edge 30 of a closure profile.
  • FIG. 10 shows cutouts 13, 15 that are symmetrical with respect to a plane orthogonal to the edge 30.
  • the cutouts 13, 15 may indeed be dissymmetrical with respect to such an orthogonal plane. on board 30.
  • FIG. 11 shows another variant embodiment in which the cutouts 13, 15 are generally parallel to the edges 30, 32. According to FIG. 9, all the cutouts 13, 15 of the same profile are aligned.
