Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of tubular packaging, comprising a rigid tubular body, that is to say a solid body consisting of a portion of a cylinder, portion limited by two parallel planes intersecting the generatrices of the cylinder, made of a cardboard material, a bottom and / or a lid, and a safety membrane, sealed to the tubular body, these packings being intended to contain solid products in divided forms, such as powders, grains, granules, fibers, chips, or products in liquid form or in pasty form.
- the tubular packagings concerned are both circular packs and tubular packings of non-circular section, for example rectangular or oval packs.
- the tubular packaging concerned is both the actual cardboard packaging, the packaging comprising a tubular body of cardboard material but a lid and / or a bottom of metal material or synthetic material.
- the present invention more particularly relates to a method of manufacturing packages comprising a tubular body made of one or more layers of a cardboard material and an obturating structure, forming a security membrane of the package, assembled to the tubular body so waterproof.
- cardboard packaging usually refers to packages of which 90 to 98% by weight are made of cellulosic materials.
- This type of packaging comprises, in addition to layers of cellulosic materials, metal layers or coatings, such as aluminum, or synthetic, associated with cellulosic materials to form a composite surface material.
- metal or synthetic materials are, according to a terminology generally accepted in the art, a “barrier material”, isolating the product stored inside the packaging of the external environment, for example to prevent oxidation, drying out, or vis-à-vis pollutants.
- Synthetic layers or coatings may also play an essential sealing role between two parts of the package during its manufacture; in this case they are generally referred to as "reactive barrier material".
- a security membrane aluminum and film (s) sealer (s), aluminum and varnish sealer, paper and aluminum and film (s) sealant (s), paper barrier film (ex: PET metallized, PET SIOX, PVDC, etc ...) and sealing film (s).
- the materials used must be compatible for sealing with the inner wall of the tube.
- the membrane can be printed and marked with spots to be cut and positioned perfectly centered in the tube.
- the cut surface of the membrane is significantly larger than the cross-sectional area of a given tube.
- it generates folds that are as many wells that let air and moisture and thus prevent a good seal of the assembly.
- it is necessary to use very strong materials in order to use flanges at very high pressure, generally Hydraulic.
- the range of usable materials is then almost limited to only aluminum with varnish. This poses price problems because aluminum is an expensive material, subject to great price variations.
- it takes a lot of material to perform this forming operation, so it is disadvantageous in terms of material cost and final competitiveness.
- the present invention has the primary objective of providing a method for using a wide range of materials to achieve the safety membrane.
- the sealing of the membrane on the tube must be easily “peelable". To do this, it is generally used in the state of the art an attached tongue attached to the periphery of the safety membrane. Again, this limits the choice of materials for both the membrane and the barrier of the tube itself. Here again, material costs are not optimized.
- the present invention also aims to provide a membrane for easy opening and reliable without being limited in the choice of materials as is the case of the processes of the state of the art mentioned above.
- the invention proposes to facilitate the separation of the safety membrane during the first use, while decreasing the required tensile force, without altering the tightness of the membrane before this first use.
- the French patent published under No FR 2,716,408 describes the manufacture of a tubular packaging of the above type.
- the structure comprises a cover board made of cellulosic material and a safety membrane made of a cellulosic material coated with a barrier material. These two pieces are formed one after the other, in the form of cylindrical bowls by a punch shape through an outer die and engaged in one end of the tubular body.
- the side walls of the two parts are assembled in a sealed manner with the inner wall of the tubular body. Then the wall of the tubular body is pre-cut along a peripheral line between the assembly areas of the two parts, so as to allow the opening of the lid carton without tearing the safety membrane.
- the disadvantage of this process, specifically adapted to the assembly of cellulosic / cardboard materials is not to be applicable to a wide range of materials.
- the present invention also aims to overcome this problem.
- the invention also aims to provide a structure comprising a tubular body as mentioned above, provided with a safety membrane, structure on which can be formed and / or adapt a wide range of types of covers.
- the unsealed part consists of a marginal zone of said circumferential band extending on the circumference of the latter.
- the unsealed part consists of an intermediate portion of said peripheral band located between the marginal zone thereof and the zone of the proximal peripheral band of the central portion. of the sealing structure, and, after sealing of said marginal zone and of said proximal zone, the method comprises a step of cutting the tubular body and the closure structure along a circumference of the tubular body situated opposite said portion intermediate. Due to this cutting operation the aforementioned intermediate portion becomes the marginal area of the sealing structure in the finished package.
- the proximal end of the tongue is located in the unsealed part of the peripheral strip and extends laterally on either side by two curvatures whose concavity is oriented towards the outside of the closure structure.
- said process is continuous, considered as a whole, and stepped step by step.
- the shutter structure is cut from a strip, the advance of the strip by one step, a cutting sequence of a shutter structure in the strip and a flap operation of the tongue are slaved to the introduction of a shutter structure in a forming tool and a material assembly sequence.
- the end of the tubular body located close to said closure structure undergoes a finish determined by the choice of the lid
- the method according to the invention is implemented by means of a forming tool, comprising a sealing pad; said sealing pad comprises a sealing base of cross section conjugate to the cross section of the tubular body, the height of which is less than the width of the folding peripheral strip of the sealing structure, said sealing base being surmounted by a buffer body whose cross section is chosen so as not to come into contact with said shutter structure.
- the sealing pad comprises a second sealing strip of cross section conjugated to the cross section of the tubular body, arranged at a distance from said sealing base determined by the width of said unsealed intermediate portion.
- the machines of the state of the art work at rates of 60-80 units, namely tubular bodies + membranes or lids, per minute.
- the machine according to the invention can be advantageously adapted from a machine carrying the packaging two by two, as described in FR 1261400 , equipped with forming tools as defined above
- the figure 1 shows a tubular body 1 associated with a safety membrane 2 of the "membrane-recess" type whose peripheral portion 3 covers the rim 4 of the tubular body 1.
- the peripheral portion 3 houses numerous folds, sources of leaks.
- a tongue 5 is glued or sealed on the safety membrane 2. This construction requires additional material and complex operations on the membrane.
- the figure 2 shows the realization of a safety membrane 6 according to the invention, by stamping, from a strip of membrane material advancing under the stamping tool.
- the tongue 7 come in one piece with the rest of the membrane, folded towards the center of the latter to form a solid.
- the periphery of the membrane has 2 small concave zones to facilitate the subsequent detachment of the membrane from the inner wall of the tubular body.
- the Figures 21a, 21b, 21c and 21d show alternative embodiments of shutter structures, flat. The skilled person will note that if the shapes of the tabs differ from the tongue 7 of the figure 2 , their proximal end extends laterally on both sides by two slight curvatures whose concavity is oriented towards the outside of the shutter structure.
- the figure 3 shows the membrane 6, again in solid form, introduced into a forming tool 8 whose overall structure and mode of operation are known in the state of the art.
- the figure 4 shows the descent of the sealing pad 9 and the clamping of the flanks 10 and the forming die 11.
- the figure 5 shows the security membrane 6 formed in a bowl, the tongue 7 being bent at right angles by the sealing pad 9.
- the sealing pad preferably has in its lower part an area thermally insulated by a protector not to stick to the tongue, by activation effect, on the sealing portion of the tongue during the output of the buffer.
- the figure 6 and the figure 7 show the result of the operation: only the zone 13 of the peripheral band of the membrane 6 visualized by a thickened line is sealed to the tubular body 1.
- the tongue 7 and the marginal zone of the membrane 6 are not secured to the body tubular 1.
- the unsealed marginal area may in particular have a width of 1 to 3 mm.
- the figure 8 shows the beginning of a detachment operation of the membrane 6 by a user who grasps the tongue 7.
- the traction on the tongue 7 is distributed on either side of the base thereof thanks to the free marginal area .
- the concavity of the marginal areas bordering the base of the tongue shown in particular on the figure 2 contributes to this distribution.
- the safety membrane is positioned according to the invention at a distance from the flange 14 of the tubular body at a depth chosen by the manufacturer of the package according to the cover for this package. This distance makes it possible to perform a finishing operation of the rim, which in the majority of cases does not affect the membrane but may nevertheless include it.
- a great many materials such as those mentioned above, can be used to make the membrane, the only condition being the compatibility with the internal barrier material of the tubular body with regard to heat sealing.
- the figure 19 shows an embodiment of the shutter structure in which the peripheral band, symbolized by the dashed circle, is wider than in the embodiment shown in FIG. figure 2 and the concave cutting areas 18 on either side of the tongue are deeper.
- the sealing pad intended to set up this closure structure in the tubular body has, in addition to the sealing base 12 of the embodiment shown by the figures 3-5 a second sealing strip 19 arranged at a distance from the sealing base determined by the width of the intermediate portion of the peripheral strip of the closure structure intended not to be sealed. The result of the operation is shown in particular on the figure 17a .
- the circumferential band is sealed to the tubular body in its upper marginal zone 16 and in its lower zone 17, leaving free an intermediate zone, at which a cutout is made on the circumference of the tubular body, in a finishing operation which follows the hemming operation of the upper rim of the tubular body.
- the Figures 18 and 18a show the detachment of the cover of the structure shown on the Figures 17 and 17a .
- the skilled person will note that during the detachment of the cover the initial marginal area of the shutter structure is detached and remains integral with the lid while the intermediate portion, which is integral with the proximal portion of the tongue becomes the new upper marginal zone of the safety membrane.

Le terme « emballage en carton » désigne usuellement des emballages dont 90 à 98% en poids sont constitués de matériaux cellulosiques. Ce type d'emballage comprend, en plus des couches de matériaux cellulosiques, des couches ou revêtements métalliques, tels que l'aluminium, ou synthétiques, associés aux matériaux cellulosiques pour former un matériau surfacique composite. Ces matériaux métalliques ou synthétiques constituent, selon une terminologie généralement acceptée dans la profession, un «matériau barrière », isolant le produit stocké à l'intérieur de l'emballage de l'environnement extérieur, par exemple pour éviter une oxydation, un dessèchement, ou vis-à-vis de polluants. Les couches ou revêtements synthétiques peuvent également jouer un rôle essentiel de scellage entre deux parties de l'emballage au cours de sa fabrication; dans ce cas elles sont généralement qualifiées de « matériau barrière réactivable ».The term "cardboard packaging" usually refers to packages of which 90 to 98% by weight are made of cellulosic materials.

La description de la demande de brevet
De nombreux matériaux sont envisageables pour réaliser une membrane de sécurité: aluminium et film(s) scellant(s), aluminium et vernis scellant, papier et aluminium et film(s) scellant(s), papier film barrière (ex : PET métallisé, PET SIOX, PVDC, etc...) et film(s) scellant(s). Les matériaux utilisés doivent être compatibles pour le scellage avec la paroi interne du tube. Dans le cas de l'utilisation d'un complexe avec papier, la membrane peut être imprimée et repérée par des spots pour être découpée et positionnée parfaitement centrée dans le tube.Many materials are possible to realize a security membrane: aluminum and film (s) sealer (s), aluminum and varnish sealer, paper and aluminum and film (s) sealant (s), paper barrier film (ex: PET metallized, PET SIOX, PVDC, etc ...) and sealing film (s). The materials used must be compatible for sealing with the inner wall of the tube. In the case of the use of a paper complex, the membrane can be printed and marked with spots to be cut and positioned perfectly centered in the tube.
Avec les techniques connues dites "recess membrane" la surface découpée de la membrane est nettement plus grande que la surface transversale d'un tube donné. Lors du passage de l'état plat à l'état formé, on génère des plis qui sont autant de puits qui laissent passer l'air et l'humidité et empêchent donc une bonne étanchéité de l'ensemble. Pour palier à cela, dans l'état de la technique, il faut utiliser des matériaux très résistants afin d'utiliser des serre-flancs à très haute pression, généralement hydrauliques. La gamme des matériaux utilisables est alors quasi limitée au seul aluminium avec vernis. Ceci pose des problèmes de prix car l'aluminium est une matière chère, assujettie à de grandes variations de prix. De plus, il faut beaucoup de matière pour effectuer cette opération de formage, c'est donc désavantageux en terme de coût matière et de compétitivité finale. La présente invention a pour premier objectif d'offrir un procédé permettant d'utiliser un large éventail de matériaux pour réaliser la membrane de sécurité.With known techniques called "membrane recess" the cut surface of the membrane is significantly larger than the cross-sectional area of a given tube. During the transition from the flat state to the formed state, it generates folds that are as many wells that let air and moisture and thus prevent a good seal of the assembly. To overcome this, in the state of the art, it is necessary to use very strong materials in order to use flanges at very high pressure, generally Hydraulic. The range of usable materials is then almost limited to only aluminum with varnish. This poses price problems because aluminum is an expensive material, subject to great price variations. In addition, it takes a lot of material to perform this forming operation, so it is disadvantageous in terms of material cost and final competitiveness. The present invention has the primary objective of providing a method for using a wide range of materials to achieve the safety membrane.
De plus, pour avoir une ouverture facile, le scellage de la membrane sur le tube doit être aisément "pelable". Pour ce faire, on utilise en général dans l'état de la technique une languette rapportée fixée à la périphérie de la membrane de sécurité. Là aussi, cela limite le choix des matières aussi bien pour la membrane que pour la barrière du tube en lui même. Là aussi, les coûts matière ne sont pas optimisés. La présente invention a également pour objectif de réaliser une membrane permettant une ouverture facile et fiable sans être restreint dans le choix des matériaux comme c'est le cas des procédés de l'état de la technique mentionnés ci-dessus. L'invention se propose de faciliter la séparation de la membrane de sécurité lors du premier usage, tout en diminuant la force de traction nécessaire, sans altérer toutefois l'étanchéité de la membrane avant ce premier usage.In addition, to have an easy opening, the sealing of the membrane on the tube must be easily "peelable". To do this, it is generally used in the state of the art an attached tongue attached to the periphery of the safety membrane. Again, this limits the choice of materials for both the membrane and the barrier of the tube itself. Here again, material costs are not optimized. The present invention also aims to provide a membrane for easy opening and reliable without being limited in the choice of materials as is the case of the processes of the state of the art mentioned above. The invention proposes to facilitate the separation of the safety membrane during the first use, while decreasing the required tensile force, without altering the tightness of the membrane before this first use.
Le brevet français publié sous le No
La présente invention propose un procédé de fabrication d'un emballage comprenant un corps tubulaire fait d'une ou plusieurs couches d'un matériau cartonné et une structure obturante, formant une membrane de sécurité, comprenant
- la fourniture d'une structure obturante sous forme d'un aplat comprenant une partie centrale de forme conjuguée à la forme de l'ouverture du corps tubulaire, entourée d'une bande périphérique rabattable suffisante pour assembler de manière étanche la structure obturante avec la paroi latérale interne du corps tubulaire, et une languette venue d'une pièce avec le reste de la structure obturante, d'une taille suffisante pour permettre la préhension par un consommateur, comprenant une extrémité proximale située dans ladite bande périphérique et une extrémité distale s'étendant à l'extérieur de ladite bande périphérique, ladite languette étant rabattue en direction de la partie centrale de la structure obturante, sur sa face non destinée au scellage, pour former le dit aplat,
- l'introduction de la structure obturante dans un outil de formage et sa mise en forme de cuvette, la bande périphérique devenant orthogonale à ladite partie centrale,
- l'introduction et la pose à un niveau prédéterminé du corps tubulaire, et
- le scellage de la bande périphérique dans le corps tubulaire au moyen du dit outil de formage, à l'exception d'une partie non scellée de celle-ci, s'étendant sur la circonférence de ladite bande périphérique, formant la zone marginale de la structure obturante dans l'emballage fini.
- the provision of a shutter structure in the form of a solid surface comprising a central portion of shape conjugated to the shape of the opening of the tubular body, surrounded by a folding peripheral band sufficient to sealingly assemble the shut-off structure with the wall internal side of the tubular body, and a tongue integrally formed with the rest of the closure structure, of sufficient size to allow gripping by a consumer, comprising a proximal end located in said peripheral band and a distal end s' extending outside said peripheral strip, said tongue being folded towards the central part of the sealing structure, on its non-sealing face, to form said flat surface,
- introducing the closure structure into a forming tool and forming it into a bowl, the peripheral band becoming orthogonal to said central portion,
- introducing and placing at a predetermined level the tubular body, and
- sealing the peripheral band in the tubular body by means of said forming tool, except for an unsealed part thereof, extending over the circumference of said peripheral band, forming the marginal zone of the shutter structure in the finished package.
Dans un premier mode d'exécution du procédé selon l'invention la partie non scellée est constituée d'une zone marginale de ladite bande périphérique s'étendant sur la circonférence de celle-ci.In a first embodiment of the method according to the invention the unsealed part consists of a marginal zone of said circumferential band extending on the circumference of the latter.
Selon un deuxième mode d'exécution du procédé selon l'invention, la partie non scellée est constituée d'une partie intermédiaire de ladite bande périphérique située entre la zone marginale de celle-ci et la zone de la bande périphérique proximale de la partie centrale de la structure obturante, et, après scellage de ladite zone marginale et de la dite zone proximale, le procédé comprend une étape de découpe du corps tubulaire et de la structure obturante le long d'une circonférence du corps tubulaire situé en regard de ladite partie intermédiaire.
Du fait de cette opération de découpe la partie intermédiaire précitée devient la zone marginale de la structure obturante dans l'emballage fini.According to a second embodiment of the method according to the invention, the unsealed part consists of an intermediate portion of said peripheral band located between the marginal zone thereof and the zone of the proximal peripheral band of the central portion. of the sealing structure, and, after sealing of said marginal zone and of said proximal zone, the method comprises a step of cutting the tubular body and the closure structure along a circumference of the tubular body situated opposite said portion intermediate.
Due to this cutting operation the aforementioned intermediate portion becomes the marginal area of the sealing structure in the finished package.
De préférence, l'extrémité proximale de la languette est située dans la partie non scellée de la bande périphérique et se prolonge latéralement de part et d'autre par deux incurvations dont la concavité est orientée vers l'extérieur de la structure obturante.Preferably, the proximal end of the tongue is located in the unsealed part of the peripheral strip and extends laterally on either side by two curvatures whose concavity is oriented towards the outside of the closure structure.
L'homme du métier observera que le fait de ne pas sceller la zone marginale de la structure obturante, ou la partie intermédiaire mentionnée ci-dessus, diminue la surface scellée et de ce fait les plis susceptibles de provoquer un défaut d'étanchéité, et par conséquent ouvre l'éventail des matériaux utilisables pour la structure obturante. Par ailleurs, cela crée une portion de membrane sans contact avec le corps tubulaire à l'extrémité proximale de la languette, ce qui rend l'opération de « pelage» plus facile et plus fiable. Du fait que la zone marginale, en d'autres termes la partie supérieure de la membrane de sécurité de l'emballage fini n'est pas collée/scellée au corps tubulaire, la traction sur la languette provoque une déformation du haut de la membrane en répartissant les forces de traction de la languette sur une plus grande surface de la membrane, facilitant ainsi l'ouverture de la membrane.Those skilled in the art will observe that the fact of not sealing the marginal zone of the shutter structure, or the intermediate part mentioned above, decreases the sealed surface and therefore the folds likely to cause a leakage, and therefore opens the range of usable materials for the shutter structure. Furthermore, this creates a non-contact membrane portion with the tubular body at the proximal end of the tongue, making the "peel" operation easier and more reliable. Because the area marginale, in other words the upper part of the safety membrane of the finished package is not glued / sealed to the tubular body, traction on the tongue causes a deformation of the top of the membrane by distributing the traction forces the tongue on a larger surface of the membrane, thus facilitating the opening of the membrane.
Selon un mode d'exécution du procédé selon l'invention, le dit procédé est continu, considéré dans son ensemble, et cadencé pas à pas. La structure obturante est découpée à partir d'une bande, l'avance de la bande d'un pas, une séquence de découpe d'une structure obturante dans la bande et une opération de rabattage de la languette sont asservies à l'introduction d'une structure obturante dans un outil de formage et à une séquence d'assemblage des matériaux.According to one embodiment of the method according to the invention, said process is continuous, considered as a whole, and stepped step by step. The shutter structure is cut from a strip, the advance of the strip by one step, a cutting sequence of a shutter structure in the strip and a flap operation of the tongue are slaved to the introduction of a shutter structure in a forming tool and a material assembly sequence.
Selon un mode d'exécution du procédé de fabrication d'un emballage tel que défini ci-dessus, l'extrémité du corps tubulaire situé à proximité de ladite structure obturante subit une finition déterminée par le choix du couvercleAccording to one embodiment of the method of manufacturing a package as defined above, the end of the tubular body located close to said closure structure undergoes a finish determined by the choice of the lid
Le procédé selon l'invention est mis en oeuvre au moyen d'un outil de formage, comprenant un tampon de scellage; le dit tampon de scellage comprend une base scellante de section transversale conjuguée à la section transversale du corps tubulaire, dont la hauteur est inférieure à la largeur de la bande périphérique rabattable de la structure obturante, ladite base scellante étant surmontée d'un corps de tampon dont la section transversale est choisie de façon à ne pas venir en contact avec ladite structure obturante.The method according to the invention is implemented by means of a forming tool, comprising a sealing pad; said sealing pad comprises a sealing base of cross section conjugate to the cross section of the tubular body, the height of which is less than the width of the folding peripheral strip of the sealing structure, said sealing base being surmounted by a buffer body whose cross section is chosen so as not to come into contact with said shutter structure.
. Selon un mode d'exécution de l'outil de formage le tampon de scellage comprend une deuxième bande scellante de section transversale conjuguée à la section transversale du corps tubulaire, agencée à une distance de ladite base scellante déterminée par la largeur de ladite partie intermédiaire non scellée.. According to one embodiment of the forming tool the sealing pad comprises a second sealing strip of cross section conjugated to the cross section of the tubular body, arranged at a distance from said sealing base determined by the width of said unsealed intermediate portion.
