Description

DISPOSITIF DE PRESENTATION DE PRODUITS. DEVICE FOR PRESENTING PRODUCTS.
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de présentation de produits présentant au moins deux pots reliés par une région de liaison située dans leur partie supérieure. Les produits tels que les yaourts sont généralement livrés aux magasins dans des plateaux de regroupement en carton disposés sur une palette. Les plateaux de regroupement sont généralement très simples, comportant un fond dont le pourtour est entouré d'une paroi assurant le maintien des produits à l'intérieur. Lors de la mise en rayon, les produits sont enlevés des plateaux de regroupement, et les plateaux sont évacués. Pour gagner en temps de chargement, il arrive également que les plateaux de regroupement soient placés directement dans les rayons.The present invention relates to a product presentation device having at least two pots connected by a connecting region located in their upper part. Products such as yogurts are usually delivered to stores in cardboard bundles arranged on a pallet. The grouping trays are generally very simple, having a bottom whose periphery is surrounded by a wall ensuring the maintenance of the products inside. When putting on the shelf, the products are removed from the grouping trays, and the trays are evacuated. To save in loading time, it is also possible that the grouping trays are placed directly on the shelves.
Par ailleurs, les produits cités sont souvent présentés à la clientèle avec une « cartonette » de regroupement qui les entoure par lot de 2, 4, 8, 12 ou 16 unités. Ces cartonettes assurent une certaine stabilité au lot, facilitant sa manutention, ce qui est particulièrement utile pour le chargement des linéaires. Celles-ci sont ensuite éliminées par le consommateur. Ceci pose plusieurs problèmes. Un premier problème est lié à l'environnement. Pour minimiser l'impact nuisible des emballages, les gouvernements des différents pays encouragent la réduction de la quantité d'emballage ainsi que l'utilisation de matériaux recyclables.In addition, the products cited are often presented to customers with a "cardboard" grouping that surrounds them in batches of 2, 4, 8, 12 or 16 units. These cardettes provide some stability to the batch, facilitating its handling, which is particularly useful for the loading of the linear. These are then eliminated by the consumer. This poses several problems. A first problem is related to the environment. To minimize the harmful impact of packaging, governments in different countries encourage the reduction of packaging and the use of recyclable materials.
Ainsi, les plateaux de regroupement en carton, une fois vidés de leur contenu, doivent être recyclés par les distributeurs eux-mêmes, alors que les cartonettes de regroupement sont recyclés au mieux via le tri sélectif des ordures ménagères qui est un processus plus compliqué. Pour cette raison, la mise en œuvre de ces cartonettes est soumise à une taxe spécifique dite « Eco-taxe » pour contribuer au financement de leur recyclage. Un deuxième problème réside dans la présentation des produits dans le cas où le carton de regroupement est mis en linéaire. En effet, la présence de carton « cache » les produits regroupés. D'autre part, lorsque ces cartons sont munis de dispositifs d'ouverture, ceux-ci sont mal maitrisés et disgracieux. Un troisième problème est dû au refroidissement dans le cas de produits frais tels que des yaourts. Les yaourts non brassés sont mis en pot à 400C avant la fin de la fermentation, pour permettre la formation d'un gelThus, the cardboard collection trays, once emptied of their contents, must be recycled by the distributors themselves, while the grouping boards are recycled at best via the selective sorting of household waste which is a more complicated process. For this reason, the implementation of these cards is subject to a specific tax called "Eco-tax" to help finance their recycling. A second problem lies in the presentation of the products in the case where the grouping cardboard is put in linear. Indeed, the presence of cardboard "hides" the grouped products. On the other hand, when these boxes are equipped with opening devices, they are poorly mastered and unsightly. A third problem is cooling in the case of fresh products such as yogurts. The non-brewed yogurts are put in pot at 40 0 C before the end of fermentation, to allow the formation of a gel
(pH = 4,5), et ils sont ensuite refroidis dans un tunnel jusqu'à 5°C. Les yaourts brassés sont fermentes en cuve, puis mis en pot et refroidis dans un tunnel jusqu'à 5°C. Dans l'un et l'autre cas, les plateaux de regroupement classiques ralentissent le refroidissement, en raison des parois qui en forment le pourtour. Pour diminuer cet inconvénient, il est connu d'ajourer ces parois pour faciliter la circulation d'air.(pH = 4.5), and they are then tunnel cooled to 5 ° C. The stirred yogurts are fermented in vats, then potted and cooled in a tunnel up to 5 ° C. In either case, the conventional grouping trays slow down the cooling, because of the walls which form the periphery. To reduce this disadvantage, it is known to open these walls to facilitate the flow of air.
Un quatrième problème est l'empilement des pots sur des palettes dont la hauteur est d'environ 2 mètres. En effet, les plateaux de regroupements sont empilés les uns sur les autres par leur fond qui repose sur les parois verticales formant le pourtour de ces plateaux et surtout sur les produits de la ou des couches inférieures qui supportent ainsi l'essentiel du poids.A fourth problem is the stacking of pots on pallets whose height is about 2 meters. Indeed, the grouping trays are stacked on each other by their bottom which rests on the vertical walls forming the periphery of these trays and especially on the products of the lower layer or layers which thus support most of the weight.
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de présentation de produits dans les linéaires d'un magasin qui soit apte à éviter au moins l'un des inconvénients précités.The present invention relates to a device for presenting products in the shelves of a store that is able to avoid at least one of the aforementioned drawbacks.
L'invention concerne ainsi un dispositif de présentation de produits présentant au moins deux pots reliés par une région de liaison située dans leur partie supérieure, caractérisé en ce qu'il présente un plateau ayant un fond et au moins une paroi de séparation verticale obtenue par repliement bord à bord et à 90° de deux régions d'un flan, sur laquelle la face inférieure d'au moins une région de liaison vient en appui, lesdits deux pots précités étant situés de part et d'autre de la paroi de séparation.The invention thus relates to a product presentation device having at least two pots connected by a connecting region located in their upper part, characterized in that it has a plate having a bottom and at least one vertical separation wall obtained by folding edge to edge and at 90 ° of two regions of a blank, on which the lower face of at least one connecting region bears, said two aforementioned pots being located on either side of the partition wall .
Avantageusement, une dite paroi de séparation s'étend d'un bord avant à un bord arrière du plateau, ce qui permet de contribuer au mieux à la résistance à la compression des paires de pots en les portant par le milieu sur toute la longueur de liaison entre les pots.Advantageously, a said partition wall extends from a front edge to a rear edge of the plate, which makes it possible to best contribute to the compressive strength of the pairs of pots by carrying them by the middle over the entire length of the connection between the pots.
Le dispositif peut comporter plusieurs parois de séparation séparées par une distance correspondant à 2 cavités. Les produits peuvent être regroupés par multiple de deux, notamment par groupes de 2, 4, 6 ou 8 pots disposés selon un ou plusieurs rangs.The device may comprise a plurality of separation walls separated by a distance corresponding to 2 cavities. The products may be grouped in multiples of two, in particular in groups of 2, 4, 6 or 8 pots arranged in one or more rows.
Au moins une paroi de séparation peut s'étendre d'un bord à l'autre du flan. Le dispositif est en général formé à partir d'un seul flan, notamment de carton. Le fond du plateau est avantageusement bordé par une première paroi apte à maintenir les produits et longeant un premier côté du fond.At least one partition wall can extend from one edge to the other of the blank. The device is generally formed from a single blank, especially cardboard. The bottom of the tray is advantageously bordered by a first wall adapted to hold the products and along a first side of the bottom.
De préférence, la première paroi se prolonge de part et d'autre par une deuxième et une troisième paroi qui lui sont adjacents et qui s'étendent sur une partie d'un deuxième et d'un troisième côtés adjacents au premier côté, notamment sur moins de la moitié de la longueur des deuxième et troisième côtés, et plus particulièrement sur un tiers environ de cette longueur. Le dispositif peut être caractérisé en ce que la première paroi est formée par repliement d'un premier volet articulé sur le premier côté du plateau et en ce que la deuxième et la troisième paroi sont formées par repliement d'un deuxième et d'un troisième volet articulés aux deuxième et troisième côtés du plateau, lesquels peuvent présenter un volet d'appui venant en recouvrement partiel avec le premier volet.Preferably, the first wall is extended on either side by a second and a third wall which are adjacent to it and which extend over part of a second and a third side adjacent to the first side, in particular on less than half the length of the second and third sides, and more particularly about one-third of this length. The device can be characterized in that the first wall is formed by folding a first hinged flap on the first side of the plate and in that the second and third wall are formed by folding a second and a third hinged flap on the second and third sides of the tray, which may have a bearing flap partially overlapping with the first flap.
Le dispositif peut comporter au moins un volet de maintien articulé à une dite région repliée bord à bord et venant en appui entre la première région de maintien, ce qui par le pliage et le collage de trois rabats venant en superposition permet de renforcer la partie arrière qui sert à la manipulation, tout en inscrivant la découpe du flan dans un rectangle de taille optimale.The device may comprise at least one holding flap hinged to a said folded region edge to edge and coming into abutment between the first holding region, which by folding and gluing of three overlapping flaps reinforces the rear portion which is used for the manipulation, while inscribing the cut of the blank in a rectangle of optimal size.
Au moins une paroi de maintien peut présenter à sa partie inférieure et à sa partie supérieure un prolongement et une découpe complémentaires qui coopèrent lors de la superposition des produits. Au moins le fond du plateau et au moins une paroi de séparation peuvent présenter des ouvertures de manière à faciliter une circulation d'air.At least one holding wall may have at its lower part and at its upper part an extension and a complementary cut which cooperate during the superposition of the products. At least the bottom of the tray and at least one partition wall may have openings so as to facilitate air circulation.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, en liaison avec les dessins annexés, dans lesquels : - la figure 1a et 1b, et les figures 2a et 2b représentent en perspective avant et arrière un plateau selon un premier et un deuxième mode de réalisation de l'invention, avec notamment une butée arrachable de maintien des pots.The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, in conjunction with the appended drawings, in which: FIG. 1a and 1b, and FIGS. 2a and 2b represent in front and rear perspective a plate according to a first and a second embodiment of the invention, in particular with a breakaway stop for holding the pots.

- la figure 5 illustre en perspective avant la superposition de deux dispositifs de présentation selon la figure 3b avec enlèvement de deux groupes de 8 pots.- Figure 5 illustrates in perspective before the superposition of two presentation devices according to Figure 3b with removal of two groups of 8 pots.
- la figure 6 est une vue en plan d'un flan pour la réalisation d'un plateau selon les figures précédentes.- Figure 6 is a plan view of a blank for the production of a tray according to the preceding figures.
- et les figures 7a et 7b représentent une variante respectivement d'un dispositif de présentation et d'un flan pour sa mise en œuvre.- And Figures 7a and 7b show a variant respectively of a presentation device and a blank for its implementation.
Comme représenté aux figures 1a et 1 b, un plateau 1 comporte un fond 2 de forme générale rectangulaire et deux parois de séparation 4 et 5 s'étendant parallèlement aux côtés 23 et 24 de préférence entre le bord avant 25 et une paroi arrière 22. Cette paroi arrière 22 est bordée de deux parois latérales 20 et 21 qui lui sont adjacentes et qui s'étendent sur une partie de la longueur, ici environ un tiers des deux côtés 23 et 24.As represented in FIGS. 1a and 1b, a plate 1 comprises a bottom 2 of generally rectangular shape and two partition walls 4 and 5 extending parallel to the sides 23 and 24, preferably between the front edge 25 and a rear wall 22. This rear wall 22 is bordered by two lateral walls 20 and 21 which are adjacent to it and which extend over part of the length, here about one third of the two sides 23 and 24.
Le fond 22 présente une ouverture de préhension 26' obtenue par rabattement à 90° et collage d'un volet découpé 26 qui permet un renforcement dans cette zone.The bottom 22 has a gripping opening 26 'obtained by folding at 90 ° and gluing a cut flap 26 which allows a reinforcement in this area.
Les parois latérales 20 et 21 présentent un bord supérieur 32 qui s'étend jusqu'au tiers environ des côtés 23 et 24 à partir du bord arrière 25', et qui se prolonge vers l'avant par un pan coupé 31 et un bord vertical 30 et vers l'arrière par un prolongement en surélévation 33 défini par un pan coupé 33' et un bord supérieur 33".The side walls 20 and 21 have an upper edge 32 which extends to about one-third of the sides 23 and 24 from the rear edge 25 ', and which extends forwards by a cut-off portion 31 and a vertical edge 30 and rearward by a raised extension 33 defined by a cut-off 33 'and an upper edge 33 ".
De plus, les parois latérales 20 et 21 se prolongent par des volets 60 et 61 qui viennent en recouvrement de la paroi 22 et présentent un bord supérieur 35 longeant le bord supérieur 36 de la paroi 22 et un prolongement en surélévation 34 défini par un pan coupé 34' et un bord supérieur 34". Les parois latérales 20 et 21 présentent à leur partie inférieure arrière des découpes en trapèze 37 complémentaires des prolongements 33, et sont adjacents à des découpes en trapèze 38 des volets 60 et 61 , lesquelles sont complémentaires des prolongements 34, ces prolongements et découpes permettant de superposer les plateaux tout en les maintenant, du fait également des découpes 24' et 25" des côtés 24 et 25'. Des prolongements et des découpes complémentaires peuvent être ménagés dans le volet 22, notamment en l'absence des volets 60 et 61.In addition, the side walls 20 and 21 are extended by flaps 60 and 61 which overlap the wall 22 and have an upper edge 35 along the upper edge 36 of the wall 22 and an extension extension 34 defined by a section cut 34 'and an upper edge 34 ". The side walls 20 and 21 have, at their lower rear part, trapezoidal cuts 37 complementary to the extensions 33, and are adjacent to trapezoidal cuts 38 of the flaps 60 and 61, which are complementary to the extensions 34, these extensions and cutouts making it possible to to superpose the trays while maintaining them, also because of the cuts 24 'and 25 "of the sides 24 and 25', extensions and complementary cuts may be provided in the flap 22, in particular in the absence of the flaps 60 and 61.
Des ouvertures 26', 27, 28, 29, 45, 55 sont ménagées respectivement dans la paroi 22 et/ou les parois 20 et 21 et/ou le fond 2, et/ou les panneaux de séparations 4 et 5 afin de permettre le cas échéant une meilleure circulation d'air pour des produits soumis à une étape thermique telle qu'un refroidissement. Ces ouvertures sont ménagées au niveau des espaces 74 entre les pots 72. Les figures 2a et 2b se distinguent des figures 1a et 1 b par des éléments de maintien déployés à deux volets de maintien 42 et 43, ainsi que 52 et 53 (figure 2c) obtenus par des découpes en 44' et 44", et 54' et 54" qui sont déployées pour former deux volets à 90° 42 et 43 d'une part et 52 et 53 d'autre part, qui sont facilement arrachables. Ces éléments de maintien optionnels 52 et 53 peuvent être disposés, de préférence près du bord avant 25 comme représenté, pour faciliter leur arrachage ou leur repliement lors de la mise en rayon, ou bien encore dans l'espace 74 entre deux produits. Il suffit de réaliser des prédécoupes dans un flan de carton pour les obtenir.Openings 26 ', 27, 28, 29, 45, 55 are formed respectively in the wall 22 and / or the walls 20 and 21 and / or the bottom 2, and / or the separating panels 4 and 5 in order to allow the optionally a better air circulation for products subjected to a thermal step such as cooling. These openings are formed at the spaces 74 between the pots 72. FIGS. 2a and 2b are distinguished from FIGS. 1a and 1b by holding elements deployed with two holding flaps 42 and 43, as well as 52 and 53 (FIG. ) obtained by 44 'and 44 "cuts, and 54' and 54" which are deployed to form two 90 ° flaps 42 and 43 on the one hand and 52 and 53 on the other hand, which are easily tearable. These optional holding elements 52 and 53 may be arranged, preferably near the front edge 25 as shown, to facilitate their tearing or folding during the shelves, or even in the space 74 between two products. Just make precuts in a cardboard blank to get them.
Alternativement, on peut mettre en œuvre un ou plusieurs dispositifs de maintien avec un seul volet déployable.Alternatively, one or more holding devices can be implemented with a single deployable flap.
Les figures 3a et 3b représentent un dispositif de présentation associant un plateau décrit ci-dessus et des pots de yaourts par quatre (quadrette 75) pour la figure 3a et par huit (repère 80) pour la figure 3b.Figures 3a and 3b show a presentation device associating a tray described above and yoghurt pots by four (quadrette 75) for Figure 3a and by eight (mark 80) for Figure 3b.
Les figures 4c et 4b illustrent la superposition des dispositifs de présentation avec maintien par les découpes en trapèze 37 et 38 et les prolongements surélevés 33 et 34 (voir figure 4c).Figures 4c and 4b illustrate the superimposition of the presentation devices with holding by the trapezoid cuts 37 and 38 and the raised extensions 33 and 34 (see Figure 4c).
On voit plus particulièrement à la figure 4b que les pots de yaourt 72 sont disposés à cheval sur les parois 4 et 5, deux pots d'une quadrette 75 étant disposés de chaque côté d'une paroi. La figure 5 montre la disposition de yaourts par 8 (repère 80) soit latéralement, soit dans la longueur du plateau. La hauteur des murs de séparation 4 et 5 est choisie de telle façon que leur face supérieure 48, 58 vienne sensiblement en contact avec la face inférieure 71 des régions de pont 70 séparant les pots 72. De ce fait, et étant donné que les parois de séparation 4 et 5 sont situées entre des pots solidaires entre eux (et non à la périphérie du plateau comme dans l'art antérieur), la force exercée sur les pots est grandement diminuée et l'effort peut être transmis en majeure partie par les parois 4 et 5 lors d'une mise en palette sur des palettes dont la hauteur nominale est en général de l'ordre de 2 mètres. Ceci permet de réduire sensiblement l'épaisseur de paroi de pots de yaourt, par exemple entre environ 0,7 mm et 0,8 mm, d'où une économie de matière.It is more particularly seen in Figure 4b that the yogurt pots 72 are arranged astride the walls 4 and 5, two pots of a quadrette 75 being disposed on each side of a wall. Figure 5 shows the arrangement of yoghurt 8 (80) either laterally or in the length of the tray. The height of the partition walls 4 and 5 is chosen so that their upper face 48, 58 comes into substantially contact with the lower face 71 of the bridge regions 70 separating the pots 72. Because of this, and since the walls 4 and 5 are located between pots integral with each other (and not at the periphery of the plate as in the prior art), the force exerted on the pots is greatly reduced and the effort can be transmitted for the most part by the walls 4 and 5 when palletizing on pallets whose nominal height is generally of the order of 2 meters. This significantly reduces the wall thickness of yoghurt pots, for example between about 0.7 mm and 0.8 mm, resulting in a saving of material.
Il peut subsister un léger jour (par exemple 1 mm) entre la face inférieure 71 des régions de pont 70 et la face supérieure 48, 58 des parois 4 et 5. En effet, sous l'action d'une force exercée par un plateau supérieur, les pots situés de part et d'autre d'une paroi 4 ou 5 tendent à fléchir en s'écartant légèrement l'un de l'autre jusqu'à ce que ladite face inférieure 71 vienne en butée sur le bord supérieur 48, 58 des parois 4 et 5, qui ainsi retransmettent l'essentiel de l'effort. En outre, ainsi qu'il a été dit, le dispositif de présentation qui est conçu pour être disposé en rayon élimine ou réduit significativement les cartonettes dans lesquels sont emballés les pots et qui sont apportés à domicile par les consommateurs, d'où les problèmes de recyclage évoqués ci- dessus pour lesquels une éco-taxe est prélevée. Le dispositif tel que décrit présente des avantages quant à la mise en rayon.There may be a slight day (for example 1 mm) between the lower face 71 of the bridge regions 70 and the upper face 48, 58 of the walls 4 and 5. Indeed, under the action of a force exerted by a plateau higher, the pots located on either side of a wall 4 or 5 tend to bend slightly apart from each other until said lower face 71 abuts on the upper edge 48 , 58 of the walls 4 and 5, which thus retransmit most of the effort. In addition, as has been said, the presentation device which is designed to be placed on the shelf eliminates or significantly reduces the cardboards in which the pots are packed and which are brought home by the consumers, hence the problems referred to above for which an eco-tax is levied. The device as described has advantages as to shelving.
Le fait que sa face avant 25 et la majeure partie de la longueur des côtés latéraux 23 et 24 sont dépourvues de paroi met en valeur les produits, ce qui fait que la suppression de la cartonette n'est pas un inconvénient sur le plan de la présentation du produit en rayon. Le plateau peut être revêtu de mentions imprimées qui seront découvertes au fur et à mesure du prélèvement des produits par les clients.The fact that its front face 25 and most of the length of the side sides 23 and 24 are wallless enhances the products, so that the removal of the cardboard is not a disadvantage in terms of presentation of the product on the shelf. The tray may be covered with printed information that will be discovered as and when the products are collected by the customers.
Les volets latéraux 20 et 21 ainsi que les volets rabattus 60 et 61 renforcent mécaniquement le plateau à sa partie arrière et assurent une prise en main sans problème pour la manutention et la mise en rayon. L'absence de paroi sur la majeure partie du pourtour du plateau facilite la circulation de l'air lors du passage des produits en tunnel de refroidissement. Cette circulation est facilitée par la présence des découpes 26" et/ou 27 et/ou 28 et/ou 29 et/ou 45 et/ou 55. La fonction mécanique des parois longitudinales 4 et 5 sur lesquels les produits sont placés à cheval est renforcée dans le cas où elles viennent du repliement bord à bord de deux panneaux 46 et 47 d'une part et 56 et 57 d'autre part dont les bords supérieurs respectivement 48 et 58 servent d'appui aux régions de ponts 71 entre des pots 72 ou des rangées de pots solidaires entre eux.The side flaps 20 and 21 and the folded flaps 60 and 61 mechanically reinforce the tray at its rear portion and provide a grip without problem for handling and shelving. The absence of a wall over most of the periphery of the plate facilitates the circulation of air during the passage of products in a cooling tunnel. This circulation is facilitated by the presence of the cuts 26 "and / or 27 and / or 28 and / or 29 and / or 45 and / or 55. The mechanical function of the longitudinal walls 4 and 5 on which the products are placed on horseback is reinforced in the case where they come from folding edge to edge of two panels 46 and 47 on the one hand and 56 and 57 on the other hand whose upper edges respectively 48 and 58 serve to support the bridge regions 71 between pots 72 or rows of pots joined together.
Le plateau 2 peut être formé à partir d'un flan de carton représenté à la figure 6.The tray 2 can be formed from a carton blank shown in FIG.
Les parois 4 et 5 sont formées par repliement bord à bord et collage des panneaux 46 et 47 d'une part et 56 et 57 d'autre part. De ce fait, la matière constituant les parois 4 et 5 qui apportent la résistance à la compression verticale est solidaire du fond du dispositif, ce qui est favorable à une bonne transmission des efforts et à la résistance mécanique de l'ensemble.The walls 4 and 5 are formed by folding edge to edge and gluing the panels 46 and 47 on the one hand and 56 and 57 on the other hand. Therefore, the material constituting the walls 4 and 5 which provide the vertical compressive strength is integral with the bottom of the device, which is favorable to a good transmission of forces and the mechanical strength of the assembly.
Le repliement de volets 20 et 21 forment les panneaux latéraux, et le repliement du volet de fond 22 est suivi du repliement des volets 60 et 61 des panneaux latéraux 20 et 21.The folding flaps 20 and 21 form the side panels, and the folding of the bottom flap 22 is followed by the folding of the flaps 60 and 61 of the side panels 20 and 21.
Le dispositif illustré par les figures 7a et 7b présente deux volets supplémentaires 93 et 94 qui sont articulés au bord arrière d'un panneau (46, 47 ; 56, 57) qui par repliement bord à bord forment les parois longitudinales 4 et 5. La partie arrière du dispositif de présentation présente alors le volet central 92, les volets 93 et 94 précités et les volets 90 et 91 qui prolongent les volets latéraux 20 et 21. Dans l'exemple représenté, les volets 93 et 94 sont articulés au bord arrière respectivement des panneaux 46 et 57. Comme le montre la figure 7a, on obtient aux deux extrémités du fond 92, un recouvrement partiel avec les volets 90 et 95 d'une part et 91 et 94 d'autre part, pour former une triple épaisseur qui renforce le dispositif dans cette région qui sert à la manipulation.The device illustrated in Figures 7a and 7b has two additional flaps 93 and 94 which are articulated to the rear edge of a panel (46, 47; 56, 57) which by folding edge to edge form the longitudinal walls 4 and 5. The rear part of the presentation device then has the central flap 92, the aforementioned flaps 93 and 94 and the flaps 90 and 91 which extend the lateral flaps 20 and 21. In the example shown, the flaps 93 and 94 are hinged to the rear edge respectively panels 46 and 57. As shown in Figure 7a, is obtained at both ends of the bottom 92, a partial overlap with the shutters 90 and 95 on the one hand and 91 and 94 on the other hand, to form a triple thickness which strengthens the device in this region that is used for manipulation.
Comme le montre la figure 7b, le flan s'inscrit dans un rectangle de contour optimisé, avec un minimum de perte de matière. As shown in Figure 7b, the blank fits into an optimized contour rectangle, with minimal loss of material.
