Definitions

  • the present invention relates to food packaging.
  • EP 2080713 describes a packaging according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the packaging of the prior art has several disadvantages for the consumer. Firstly, these packages do not allow to consume the food product easily and without taking it with the hands, especially when the latter has been warmed. This causes the consumer a risk of burning and a risk of getting dirty hands. In addition, the need to use plastic cutlery can be restrictive for "nomadic" consumers who want to move while feeding.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome these drawbacks and to provide an individual packaging of food product offering the user easy consumption through a simple grip and protected.
  • the packaging as described above is characterized in that it further comprises a removable shovel having a support portion extending in a first plane, and on which the individual part is supported, the shovel having a first flange extending substantially perpendicular to the plane of the support portion, the first flange extending from the support portion to an upper end and forming a gripping means, the shovel further comprising two secondary flanges extending substantially perpendicular to the plane of the part of support and defining between them a secondary direction, the first rim and the two secondary flanges being arranged relative to each other so as to limit the displacement of the food product in the secondary direction and in a first direction perpendicular to the secondary direction and oriented towards the first rim, so as to allow its movement in a direction opposite to the first direction.
  • the present invention relates to a package 10 on an individual basis 12 of a food product, such as a pie or quiche, intended to be consumed quickly and nomadically, that is to say in a different place from where it was bought.
  • a food product such as a pie or quiche
  • the snacking market has increased significantly over the past decade. Consumers take less time for lunch, and want to be able to consume food quickly and anywhere.
  • the present invention therefore provides a package to facilitate this nomadic consumption, as will be described later.
  • the individual portions 12 have a substantially triangular shape, because they are cut out of a circular pie.
  • the packaging as illustrated also has a triangular shape adapting perfectly to the shape of the individual part.
  • the triangular shape will be defined by an opposite main base and top, and two sides adjacent to the base.
  • the shape of the package illustrated in the accompanying drawings is not limiting and the latter could have any other shape, such as a circular shape.
  • the package 10 consists of two parts. It comprises a tray 14, illustrated on the figure 1 , intended to protect the food product. This tray is covered with a cover film, not shown, so as to create a hermetic environment allowing keep the food product.
  • the tray is made by thermoforming, plastic compatible with a microwave heating such as polypropylene.
  • the package 10 is also constituted by a shovel 16, illustrated on the figure 2 , arranged in the tray 14, and to facilitate the gripping of the product outside the tray 14, and to prevent the consumer from getting dirty or burning fingers.
  • the shovel 16 is made by plastic injection compatible with a microwave heating, such as polypropylene.
  • the tray 14 and the shovel 16 each have a triangular shape defining a base 14a, 16a and a main apex 141, 161 opposite.
  • the tray has a bottom 18 of substantially triangular shape from which extends, in a plane substantially perpendicular to that of the bottom, a lateral flange 20 defining the depth P of the tray 14.
  • the tray further comprises an upper rim 22 s extending above the lateral flange 20, in a plane substantially parallel to that of the bottom 18.
  • the upper flange 22 is adapted to receive a covering cap which is adhesively secured.
  • the operculum makes it possible to create an hermetic volume of preservation of the food product.
  • the tray 14 comprises on the tops of the upper flange 22, at least two tabs 24, 26send beyond the upper flange 22, and in the same plane, so as to facilitate the grip of packaging by the consumer.
  • the shovel 16, illustrated on the figure 2 has a support portion 28 extending in a substantially plane first, and on which the individual part is supported.
  • the support portion 28 is parallel and bears against the bottom 18 of the tray 14.
  • the support portion 28 has a triangular shape. The distance between the opposite end 161 and the base 16a of the support portion is less than the distance between the main vertex 141 and the base 14a of the bottom of the tray so as to facilitate insertion or removal of the excavator 16 compared to the tray 14.
  • the shovel 16 has a first rim 30 extending in a plane substantially perpendicular to that of the support portion 28, from the latter to an upper end.
  • the first flange 30 forms a gripping means for easy gripping for the consumer.
  • the first flange 30 has a height substantially equal to the height of the side rim 20 of the tray 14 and further comprises a folded portion 32 substantially parallel to the plane of the support portion 28 at its upper end. Thanks to these provisions, the consumer can seize with one hand the shovel on which the individual part is arranged, and dispose of the other hand to perform other activities.
  • the shovel further comprises two secondary flanges 34, 36 extending substantially in a plane perpendicular to the support portion 28.
  • the first flange 30 and the two secondary flanges 34, 36 cooperate to limit the movement of the individual part on the support portion 28, to prevent a fall of the latter, while allowing to move in a direction towards the main vertex 161, so that the user can consume it.
  • the secondary flanges 34, 36 respectively extend on either side of the two peaks 162, 163 of the base 16a of the support portion 28. They extend on the one hand on the side of the base 16a of the support portion 28 and on the other hand towards the adjacent sides 16b, 16c at the base 16.
  • the height of the secondary edges 34, 36 disposed along the adjacent sides 16b, 16c at the base 16a is at most equal to or greater than a quarter of the depth P of the tray and tends to decrease towards the main vertex 161, so as to allow the movement of the individual portion to the main vertex 161 of the support portion 28.
  • the bottom 18 of the tray 14 has relief elements 38 which cooperate with grooves 40 or holes made in the support portion 28 of the blade 16, so as to guide the insertion of the shovel 16 in the tray 14, and its correct positioning.
  • the raised elements 38 are interlocked in the orifices which have a complementary shape.
