Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a plastic bottle having a gripping zone, which is particularly, but not exclusively, intended to contain a large amount of beverage.
  • the bottles of this type must satisfy different constraints related to their transport and pouring comfort for the user, while having to be as light as possible to reduce the costs related to the amount of plastic used and reduce the impact on the user. 'environment.
  • a certain rigidity of the gripping portion is necessary for the comfort of gripping and to avoid liquid projection phenomena that may occur when the user firmly grasps an almost full open bottle.
  • the vertical load supported by the bottle is transmitted from the closure member to the bottom, through the neck and the body of the bottle where the plastic material has a minimum thickness.
  • the vertical compressive strength must be accompanied of a certain vertical elasticity which makes it possible to increase the internal pressure of the filled bottle, and consequently to better withstand compression provided that the wall of the body, including the gripping portion, does not deform radially in a manner sensitive.
  • the present invention therefore aims to meet these requirements while providing a comfortable grip portion for most users.
  • the subject of the present invention is a bottle of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the gripping portion comprises at least two generally planar gripping panels, arranged in parallel with each other and with respect to the central axis of the bottle, at a distance from each other adapted for handling, said panels having at least one reinforcing relief extending generally in a transverse plane of the body, and being interconnected by connecting panels extending in the extension of the lower and upper portions of the body, via rounded angles at the circumferential ends of said panels.
  • a plastic bottle 1 intended to contain about 2 liters of still water.
  • the bottle 1 extends longitudinally along a central vertical axis Z. It has from its base to its top, a bottom 2, a lower portion 3, a gripping portion 4, an upper portion 5, a collar 6 and a ring 7 defining a pouring orifice 71.
  • the lower portions 3, gripping 4 and upper 5 constitute a body 9 of the bottle.
  • the gripping portion 4 is located beyond the half-height of the bottle, but less than three quarters of its total height.
  • the bottle 1 is formed in a single piece of plastic, PET in the embodiment shown, which is shaped by heat-blowing a preform in a mold.
  • Heat-blowing allows biaxially stretching the plastic, and to impart rigidity to it.
  • Heat-blowing also makes it possible to considerably reduce the thickness of the wall of the body 9 with respect to the thickness of the wall of the preform. This small thickness of the walls of the body of the bottle, which can be of the order of 150 to 300 micrometers depending on the area considered, is important to obtain a gain in material and therefore weight.
  • the bottom 2 rises to a greater or lesser height from the support plane of the bottle. It has ribs 21 and its average thickness is a little larger to strengthen this part which must transmit the weight of the bottle and any bottles stacked above it on a surface that can be more or less flat and even.
  • ribs 21 and its average thickness is a little larger to strengthen this part which must transmit the weight of the bottle and any bottles stacked above it on a surface that can be more or less flat and even.
  • other more or less complex forms for the bottom 2 are possible, especially if it is a bottle for carbonated beverage that must withstand significant internal pressures, even when it is not based on its background.
  • the lower portion 3 of the body 9 has reinforcing reliefs (31, 32), here made hollow with respect to the outer profile 33, visible at the figure 3 , of the cross section of this portion.
  • These reliefs of reinforcement can be in various forms, such as corrugated grooves 31 or in the form of annular grooves 32 arranged horizontally, that is to say included in transverse planes with respect to the central axis Z of the bottle.
  • the reliefs (31, 32) must be able to withstand the internal pressure of the bottle, but also provide longitudinal elasticity to allow an increase in the internal pressure of the liquid and thus a resistance to vertical crushing.
  • the profile 33 of the cross section of this lower portion 3 is circular and constant along the length of this portion in the embodiment shown, it being understood that this profile is considered outside the reliefs (31, 32).
  • the walls of the lower portion 3 are vertical and adapted to support a load in this direction. It is conceivable to make a slight variation in the profile of the section along the lower portion 3, for example by adopting a slightly frustoconical shape, but significant and / or geometrically significant variations will be avoided in order to maintain good resistance to crushing.
  • the upper portion 5 has similarly to the lower portion 3 reliefs (51, 52) more or less pronounced to either increase the resistance to deformation as in the case of corrugated grooves 51, or for purely aesthetic reasons as in the slight relief 52.
  • the profile of the upper portion 5 is also circular and constant in the embodiment shown.
  • the profile of the section of this portion is coaxial with the profile 33 of the lower portion 3, since these lower 3 and upper portions 5 extend longitudinally along the same central axis Z.
  • the circular profile has the same diameter as that the lower portion 3.
  • the lower portion profiles 3 and upper 5 are in correspondence and are well adapted to transmit the vertical forces of the neck 6 to the bottom 2.
  • the upper portion 5 may however have some variation in section, while maintaining an aptitude to transmit vertical forces, and taking into account the overall shape of these two portions relative to each other.
  • the profile of the section of the lower and upper portions (3, 5) may be other than circular, for example polygonal with rounded corners, while conferring sufficient resistance to the radially internal pressures and to the forces exerted vertically on these portions.
  • the neck 6 has a frustoconical shape connected by a rounded curve to the upper portion 5. Other forms well known for the neck can however be adopted.
  • the top of the neck 6 is connected to the ring 7 by a rather pronounced angle, but the thickness of the wall greater in this region provides significant resistance to deformation.
  • the ring 7 it is a well-known three-threaded ring.
  • the ring 7 is intended to receive a screw cap, not shown in the figures. But, of course, any type of closure member can be adopted.
  • the gripping portion 4 comprises two gripping panels 41, one of which is visible from the front on the figure 2 , and two connecting panels 42, one of which is visible from the front on the figure 1 .
  • Each jack panel 41 is directly connected at each of its circumferential ends by a bracket 43 at the circumferential ends of each of the connecting panels 42, as is best seen in FIG. figure 3 .
  • the gripping panels 41 are generally flat in consideration of their transverse dimension, but can have, as in the embodiment shown, slight curvatures which will be detailed below.
  • the gripping panels 41 are arranged parallel to each other at a distance L from each other adapted for a grip.
  • the bottle represented Figures 1 to 3 has lower and upper portions (3, 5) of about 100 mm in diameter, which does not allow easy handling for most adults. While the distance L separating the two plug panels 41 is about 81 mm, which makes it much easier for the majority of users to grip the bottle.
  • the connecting panels 42 extend in the extension of the lower and upper portions (3, 5) of the body 9.
  • the body of the bottle considered on the circumferential portion comprising the connecting panels 42, has an advantageous continuous surface to transmit the vertical loads between the neck 6 and the bottom 2.
  • the angles 43 are located in the circumferential connection zone of the gripping panels 41 with the connecting panels 42.
  • the angles 43 are constituted by a portion extending vertically from the lower portion 3 to the upper portion 5, and circumferentially on a angular sector of central axis Z, limited to a few degrees.
  • the transverse profile of the angles 43 is an arc of a circle of radius substantially less than that of the body, so that it has a rounded shape.
  • the angles 43 play an important role in the transmission of vertical forces by this rounded profile which structurally constitutes a vertical beam, and make it possible to compensate for the decrease in vertical resistance due to the gripping panels 41.
  • the angles 43 also have an effect on the quality of the grip of the bottle. Angular corners that are too sharp, with an edge, will be avoided. to avoid a concentration of stress harmful to the load resistance, especially during shocks.
  • the gripping panel 41 has reinforcing reliefs (44, 45) which extend along the gripping zone in a transverse plane, i.e. along the greater length of the panel. Indeed, it is necessary to prevent the gripping panels 41 from forming an arcuate shape around the central axis, either towards the outside when the pressure inside the bottle increases, or towards the inside when the user exercises a pressure on these panels. More particularly, the reinforcing reliefs comprise a central relief 44 which is in the form of an annular groove and which, consequently, also extends over the connecting panels 42. Two lateral reliefs 45 of similar shape are arranged nearby. upper and lower longitudinal ends of the catch panel 41.
  • a good compromise between the improvement of grip comfort and the preservation of the structural strength of the bottle can be obtained with a distance L separating the gripping panels 41, which is between 75 and 90% of the largest dimension of the cross section of the lower or upper portions (3, 5), namely here the diameter of these sections.
  • a distance L approximately equal to 80% of the large dimension, is particularly interesting.
  • this ratio may vary substantially depending on the volume of the bottle or the shape of the section, and for example in the case of bottles of significantly lower capacity, but whose gripping portion must be adapted to the shape of the hand of a kid.
  • the flutes (44, 45) of the gripping panels 41 extend as far as the connecting panels 42 and cross the angles 43 connecting these panels. It has been found that this reinforces the bulge resistance of the gripping panels 41 and can be explained by the fact that these reinforcements (44, 45) form corrugations at the angles 43 and limit the bending possibilities of the gripping panels. around these angles.
  • the annular grooves (44, 45) of this portion 4 have a variable depth according to the circumferential zone considered, in order to optimize, according to the zones, the bulge resistance of the gripping panels 41 or the connecting panels 42, and the resistance to the vertical forces of the gripping portion 4. More specifically, in the middle portion of the gripping panels, the flutes (44, 45) have a zone (44a, 45a) of greater depth than in the zone (44b). , 45b) located at the angles 43.
  • the central reinforcement groove 44 has a slightly greater depth and height than the lateral grooves 45, in order to limit the bending of the central zone of the gripping panels 41 which is liable to undergo an upper point force exerted radially inwardly. when the user squeezes this area with his thumb.
  • the gripping panels 41 have a length, measured along a transverse plane, greater than their height.
  • the gripping panels therefore have an elongated rectangular shape oriented transversely.
  • the gripping portion extends in this first embodiment to a height of about 3 cm, which is sufficient for a good grip and to place several reinforcing splines optionally with sections of different shape.
  • the gripping panels 41 have at least in a median area a height greater than 2 cm for these reasons. It will however be avoided that the tap panels have a maximum height greater than 5 cm, because with such a large dimension it is more difficult to meet the rigidity requirements of these panels and the reduced weight of the bottle.
  • the gripping panels 41 are connected at their lower longitudinal end to the lower portion 3 by inclined surfaces 34, here of generally triangular shape due to the circular section of the body 9. Likewise, the upper longitudinal end of the gripping panels 41 is connected by similar inclined surfaces 54 to the upper portion 5. It appears preferable that these inclined surfaces form between them an opening angle ⁇ , indicated in FIG. figure 4 , between 100 and 150 degrees to increase the height of the area on which the user can place his fingers while maintaining a sufficiently pronounced angle so that each upper inclined surface 54 forms a holding point of the hand.
  • inclined surfaces 34 here of generally triangular shape due to the circular section of the body 9.
  • the upper longitudinal end of the gripping panels 41 is connected by similar inclined surfaces 54 to the upper portion 5. It appears preferable that these inclined surfaces form between them an opening angle ⁇ , indicated in FIG. figure 4 , between 100 and 150 degrees to increase the height of the area on which the user can place his fingers while maintaining a sufficiently pronounced angle so that each upper inclined surface 54 forms a holding point of the hand.
  • a gripping portion 4 whose cross section has a substantially rectangular profile, here with short sides in an arc of a circle due to the cylindrical shape of the body 9.
  • This gripping portion s is comfortable for the user and usable in two opposite directions.
  • the structural strength of the bottle can be maintained without to involve an additional use of plastic material with respect to an optimum cylindrical shape.
  • the catch panels 41 preferably extend parallel to opposite sides of this section, and parallel to the long sides. of this section if the profile of this section is a non-square rectangle.
  • FIG. 4 and 5 there is shown a second embodiment of the plug panels applied here to a bottle 1 with a capacity of 1.5 l.
  • Most of the constituent elements of this bottle are in all respects similar to those of the embodiment presented to the Figures 1 to 3 and will not be detailed again.
  • the profile of the cross section of the upper and lower portions (3, 5), not shown for this embodiment, is also circular but of smaller diameter and about 88 mm, which allows spacing the panels of a slightly smaller distance L, namely about 72 mm, which also represents about 82% of the large dimension.
  • the gripping panels 41 here comprise only two reinforcing splines 45 arranged at the longitudinal ends of these panels. These upper and lower flutes each represent a ripple, respectively directed upwards and downwards, in the middle zone of the gripping panels 41.
  • the maximum height of these panels is therefore, as in the previous embodiment, of the order of 2 cm to offer a good taken, but less important towards the circumferential ends. This optimizes the volume and weight of the bottle.
  • the central area of the gripping panels 41 on which the thumb of the user is likely to exert significant pressure is devoid of reinforcing reliefs.
  • the increased flexibility of the wall in this area then has the advantage of better distributing the constraints exerted by the user.
  • the 1.5 liter bottle of this second embodiment makes it possible to obtain a light bottle, of the order of 32. grams with grip comfort and satisfactory deformation resistance.
