Definitions

  • the present invention relates to trays for containing food, and more particularly trays which are closed by a seal sealed on a sidewalk lidding peripheral.
  • a cap to close the trays is particularly advantageous because it allows to limit the cost of manufacturing trays and significantly reduce the environmental impact trays. Lidding makes it possible to increase the shelf life of the food contained in the tray compared to an unclogged tray.
  • the repositionable lids were then developed to provide a container without lid with a lid that can close the tray again after a first opening. Thus, if all the food contained in the tray have not been consumed, they can still be kept in the tray that the user has closed by correctly repositioning the lid.
  • the document CH 665 401 discloses a sealable and resealable tray, wherein an annular support shoulder protrudes from the inner side peripheral wall face.
  • a thin membrane may be heat sealed to a peripheral edge to form a seal closing the opening of the tray.
  • a stiffening plate in the form of a circular disc is fixed on the outer face of the membrane. After detachment of the membrane vis-à-vis the peripheral edge of the tray, the membrane-stiffening plate assembly constitutes a lid that can be engaged in the tray to come wear against the annular support shoulder. It is also provided on the inner side peripheral wall side an element opposing the extraction of the lid.
  • the document does not describe the constitution of the tray, and the closure means described do not allow sealing by a cardboard cover. Thus, the document does not make it possible to produce a tray that ensures both a low environmental impact and a good seal after closure of the lid.
  • a first problem proposed by the present invention is to design a tray for containing food, which is sealable and inexpensive, which can be closed after opening the lid, whose environmental impact is limited, which can be stacked not only after sealing but also after opening and closing, and which ensures a good seal after reclosing.
  • Such a tray is sealable, which limits the cost of manufacturing trays and reduces the environmental impact.
  • annular support shoulder and the retaining means adapted to retain a cardboard-based shutter resting on the annular bearing shoulder constitute specific mechanical means designed to cooperate with a shutter based on carton to close the tray previously opened and hold the shutter in a sealed closed position in which food contained in the tray can be stored for an additional period.
  • the tray is designed to receive closure means in two distinct positions, namely a first position "initial position” in which a lid is contained in the tray sealing plane, and a second position, namely "closed position” In which a shutter is contained in the closure plane.
  • the tray also allows the same element, namely a sealing shutter, gives the tray the benefits of a trays tray but also those of a tray with a lid.
  • the tray Before use, the tray has a starting volume defined by the bottom of the tray, the lateral peripheral wall and the lidding plan. The tray then contains a volume of feed.
  • the volume of food is a residual volume less than the volume of feed.
  • the fact that the closing plane is deported away from the sealing plane towards the bottom of the tray allows to define a volume of the closed container which is less than the starting volume of the tray.
  • the sealing plane and the closure plane are provided substantially parallel to the plane containing the bottom of the tray. It is thus easy to put another food container on the closed container.
  • the tray is made by thermoforming a thermoformable plastic sheet about 0.4 mm thick.
  • Thermoforming is a widespread, simple and inexpensive packaging manufacturing technique, and the outer shape of the side wall of such a tray then reproduces the inner shape of this wall, and in particular the presence of the annular shoulder support to limit the engagement of the trays into each other when stacked before filling.
  • the tray is made of polyester, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, amorphous polyethylene terephthalate, or polylactic acid.
  • These food compatible materials make the tray usable for holding food.
  • these materials are transparent and allow the consumer to check the condition of the food he is about to buy.
  • the annular support shoulder must have a sufficient contact area for the shutter.
  • good results can be obtained by providing that the annular bearing shoulder has a useful width of at least 4 mm, the effective width being the width of the contact area with the shutter.
  • the inner face of the lateral peripheral wall has an oblique section going narrowing towards the peripheral lidding sidewalk, to force the cardboard-based shutter resting on the annular support shoulder.
  • the oblique section can be connected directly to the annular support shoulder.
  • the inner face of the lateral peripheral wall may have a first cylindrical section of height less than the thickness of the cardboard-based shutter.
  • the oblique section has an angle of inclination of about 25 °, and preferably a height H1 oblique section of about 3 to 3.5 mm.
  • the inner face of the lateral peripheral wall has an upper section. larger diameter connecting to the oblique section by an engagement shoulder.
  • Such a tray has both the advantages of a sealed tray and those of a closable container tightly sealed by a cardboard-based shutter.
  • such a tray is closed by a single element, the shutter, which can take two closed positions: a first closed position in which the plastic film acts as a seal, and a second closed position in which the stiffened plastic film acts as a shutter.
  • stiffening means made of cardboard are superimposed on the outer face of the plastic film.
  • the stiffening means may advantageously be glued to the plastic film.
  • the plastic film to protrude beyond the stiffening periphery to be sealed on the peripheral lidding sidewalk.
  • the shutter comprises at least one gripping tab.
  • the gripping tab is a gripping means facilitating the pulling of the shutter for opening.
  • Cardboard is an advantageous material for achieving a lightweight shutter with low environmental impact.
  • the carton causes difficulties in achieving sealing in wet and cold atmosphere, and should choose the quality of the board and its thickness to ensure sufficient rigidity in the conditions of the intended use of the tray.
  • the stiffening means are kraft paperboard whose thickness is chosen to have sufficient rigidity for sealing the tray when the shutter is in the closed position.
  • a thickness of cardboard which is a function of the surface of the main opening of the tray.
  • the stiffening means may be secured to the plastic film according to the stiffening perimeter.
  • the plastic film in the closed position, has a dual function: on the one hand, it insulates the cardboard stiffening means vis-à-vis the food contained in the tray, so that it is then no need to use a laminated cardboard if the food is wet or liquid; on the other hand, it provides a seal between the stiffening perimeter and the inner face of the lateral peripheral wall.
  • the shelf life of food is increased compared to trays with a repositionable shutter known to date.
  • the stiffening means may be in the form of a plate with two opposite protrusions connecting to the central part of the plate by precut lines, the stiffening means being secured to the plastic film according to the only ones protruding, the central plate portion being thus detachable from the plastic film and having a shape suitable for constituting the shutter.
  • This method is easy to implement, it only requires the addition of a bonding machine at the end of the production line compared to a conventional production line.
  • the figure 1 illustrates a tray 1 without shutter.
  • the tray 1 is substantially rectangular and has four corners C1, C2, C3 and C4.
  • It comprises a cavity 2 limited by a lateral peripheral wall 3 and a bottom 4, and open in a main opening opposite the bottom 4.
  • the tray 1 comprises a peripheral sidewalk 5 lidding, bordering the main opening, shaped according to a sealing plane PO.

  • the board forming the stiffening plate 11 should be chosen neither too rigid (400 g / m 2 ) nor too soft (200 g / m 2 ). It can generally be about 300 g / m 2 .
  • the plate has a rigidity just sufficient to seal tightly of the tray 1 when the shutter 9 is in the closed position.
  • the rigidity required depends on the size of the main opening of the tray 1. We understand that, when the main opening is small, sealing can be ensured with a stiffening plate 11 whose cardboard is relatively flexible. On the other hand, when the main opening is large, a sealed closure requires a stiffening plate 11 whose cardboard is much more rigid.
