Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging of a food product, in particular of rectangular parallelepiped general shape such as a square of chocolate.
  • the invention thus relates to a packaging for a food product distributed to the general public, especially in cafes, brasseries and hotels to accompany the coffees served by these traders.
  • the food product of this type most commonly distributed, free of charge with each cup of coffee, is an individual chocolate square accompanying a so-called "espresso" coffee, the packaging of which usually comprises a first food contact sheet that completely protects the chocolate square. , and whose external appearance is usually metallized or shiny, and an outer shell called "chocolate ring”.
  • the outer ring consists of a longitudinal strip of rectangular shape of a material which is most often a rectangular sheet of paper and which, in the manufacturing and packaging process, is wrapped around the square of chocolate with its sheet of paper. food contact and which is then closed by gluing an area of the back of the band on a portion vis-à-vis the recto it covers.
  • the ring-shaped band perfectly matches the shape of the food product, and in particular the rectangular parallelepiped shape of the chocolate, and its primary function is to keep the chocolate packaged in the first food contact sheet avoiding unintentional unpacking.
  • the band has the second function to include on its front, that is to say on its face visible by the consumer, certain information such as for example the name of the establishment that distributes the chocolates and other indications concerning the composition of chocolate and its origin.
  • the opening of the packaging for consumption is a particularly delicate operation requiring some dexterity of the consumer, in particular to allow him to catch any part of the ring to open it. In all cases, the opening results in tearing the band forming the ring.
  • the invention proposes an assembly of this type, characterized in that the complementary locking means are made integrally in one piece by cutting the lower sheet and comprise a locking slot which is cut out in the sheet and in which is received a portion of the vertical free end edge of the retaining tab.
  • FIG. 1 a packaged food product 10 of generally rectangular parallelepiped shape which is here an individual square of chocolate 12 which is surrounded by a packing ring 14.
  • the individual chocolate 12 is represented without its first food-contact type packaging sheet and is thus in the form of a simple rectangular parallelepiped delimited by two large main square faces 16 and lower 18 , two large lateral faces and opposite left 20 and right 22, and two small opposite side faces 24 and 26.
  • the packing ring 14 consists of a strip, for example paper, of generally rectangular shape which is wrapped around the lower main faces 16 and 18 and the upper sides 24 and 26 of the square of chocolate.
  • the strip 14 is delimited laterally by two edges longitudinal parallel and opposite 28 and 30 and two overlapping outer and inner end transverse edges to provide two mutual overlapping areas for closure and adhesive bonding of the strip, generally substantially over the entire overlap area.
  • the product 10 of known general design, thus offers the possibility, used in the context of the present invention, to slide horizontally a tongue-shaped object under the band or ring 14, and for example from right to left (considering the figure 2 ) under the band 14 and here above the upper face 18.
  • the packaging 32 according to the invention is in the form of a "lower" sheet 34 of protection and presentation which is located on the right considering the figure 2 .
  • the sheet 34 which is here - without limitation - of generally rectangular contour, is delimited longitudinally / horizontally, along the axis L of the trihedron, by a free vertical front edge 40 and by a rear free vertical edge 42.
  • the sheet 34 is here - in a nonlimiting manner - generally delimited vertically by two high horizontal edges 33 and low 35 which extend between the opposite vertical edges 40 and 42.
  • the sheet 34 extends horizontally (to the left considering the figure 2 and to the right considering the figures 3 and 5 ) by a tab 50 for retaining the product 10.
  • the tongue 50 is made integrally in one piece by cutting and folding with the sheet 34.
  • the tongue 50 is delimited vertically by two high horizontal edges 52 and bottom 54 which extend from the vertical free end edge 55 of the tongue 50, to the vertical front end edge 40 of the sheet 34.
  • the retaining tab 50 has a marked fold 56 of vertical orientation.
  • the dimensions of the retaining tongue 50 are such as to allow the tongue 50 to be inserted under the strip 14 and along the upper face 18 of the chocolate 12, and the strip 14 extends opposite the face internal 57 of the tongue 50.
  • the product 10 is then positioned above the outer face 59 of the tongue 50 with its face 18 adjacent to the outer face 59.
  • the tongue 50 and the product 10 Due to the dimensions of the tongue 50 and the product 10, the latter is retained in the vertical direction V insofar as the opposite horizontal edges 52 and 54 are received inside the band 14, virtually without play, in thus opposing any vertical displacement of the product 10 with respect to the sheet 34 (see for example figure 4 ).
  • the product 10 is held horizontally to the right by complementary locking means according to the invention.
  • the slot 64 is delimited vertically by its two blind ends 63 and 65 and the slot 64 is centered vertically, that is to say that it is located opposite the retaining tab 50.
  • the slot 64 has a slightly arcuate arcuate profile whose convexity is oriented towards the left considering the figures, that is to say towards the retaining tab 50.
  • the longitudinal / horizontal length of the retaining tab 50 and the longitudinal / horizontal position of the locking slot 64 in the sheet 34 are such that when the retaining tab 50 is folded 180 degrees to occupy its position as illustrated in FIGS. Figures 5 and 6 the central portion of the vertical edge 55 of the retaining tongue 50 can be introduced into the slot 64.
  • the free vertical edge 55 of the retaining tab 50 may, as illustrated by way of non-limiting example, comprise a central locking central tab 58 which extends longitudinally projecting from the straight edge 55.
  • the packaging 32 constituted by the sheet 34 constitutes an ideal advertising medium, in particular by its large surface area.
  • the design according to the invention allows complete freedom for the shape and dimensions of the sheet 34, which makes it possible to increase the area and customize the shape, including a total freedom for the edge 42 which is devoid of any locking means and any functional aspect.
  • the designer thus has complete freedom for almost all the shape and dimensions of the sheet 34, for example in the form of a heart, etc.
  • the product 10 is perfectly maintained on the sheet 34 and this practically without play due to the pinching effect of the band resulting from locking the retaining tab 50 on the sheet 34.
  • the messages with advertising content may appear on the opposite faces 37 and 39 of the sheet 34.
  • the sheet 34, with the retaining tab 50 is after use (that is to say after its opening for consumption of the product 10), an advertising medium that the consumer can keep.
  • the area or area available for messages with advertising content is much larger than that constituted by the surface or area of the packaging strip 14.
  • the retaining tab 50 with its two opposite faces 57 and 59 also constitutes an additional advertising surface.
  • the product is not perfectly parallelepipedal, for example curved, it is possible to provide a cut in the sheet 34 or to conform the central portion of the curved complementary sheet of the product. This is possible in particular if the jacket is made of plastic sheet molded by thermoforming.
  • the retaining tongue 50 and the slot 64 are not centered in the vertical edge 40, but can be shifted upwards or downwards.
  • the invention is also applicable when the product is in a package of the type "flow-pack" commonly used in the field of distribution of various food products, including confectionery articles.
  • This type of packaging is used in particular for the distribution of the aforementioned chocolate squares, cookies known as "speculos” or other items such as madeleines, nougats, etc. which must be kept individually in a sealed package.
  • a "flow-pack” type packaging consists of a rectangular sheet of flexible material which is wrapped around the product, for example around the chocolate square or the madeleine, and which is closed by thermo-welding two zones opposite the two opposite longitudinal ends of the strip or sheet of material which is generally a sheet or film of plastic material, transparent or opaque.
  • the closure of the paper sheet is ensured by gluing while, in this case the "flow-pack", the closure is provided on the one hand by thermo-welding of both opposite longitudinal end sections of the strip, but also by thermo-welding the opposite horizontal edges, up and down, of the strip so as to constitute a sealed package.
