Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of packaging and in particular an overcap device for containers, this invention relates more particularly to a safety sleeve and an overcap capable of closely surrounding a portion of a container, for example a container such as a bottle, comprising a closure device, for example a plug.
- Such overcoupling devices constitute both a guarantee of authenticity and / or an origin certification of the content of the object and a guarantee of inviolability, this for all the actors of the production and distribution chain up to to the consumer.
- Bottles of wine are, at present, not or not very secure. Indeed, just after the so-called fired / plugged operation at the producer or in the cooperatives, which consists in filling the bottle and closing it with a closing device, for example a stopper, the bottles can be stored before dressing without any over-sealing device offering a guarantee of inviolability. These bottles do not have security functions, a fraudulent adulteration of the wine in the bottle or a substitution of the wine by another wine is possible during this storage. Similarly, after the final operation of dressing the bottle before marketing, operation of placing a body tag, a counter-label on the body of the bottle and an overcap capsule on the neck of the bottle, the bottle remains unsecured.
- wine bottles produced in France have as single overcapping device a single capsule, which can be aluminum or tin stamped or based on a polyethylene / aluminum complex wound / glued or more rarely PVC.
- the capsule is threaded by pneumatic systems on the upper part of the bottle including the closure device, the ring and the neck of the bottle. If the bottles are destined for the French territory, this capsule is endowed on its head with a stamp or fiscal pawn adorned with the seal of Marianne indicating that the rights on the alcohol were paid in France, called “representative capsule of right (CRD ) ".
- the capsule like the tax pawn, does not include any security element offering a guarantee of authenticity and / or inviolability.
- the stamped or rolled up / squeezed overcap placed on the closing device of a bottle of wine can be slid off the bottle by being pulled upwards without being damaged, thereby providing access to the device. closing the bottle, such as the stopper, and therefore also the contents of the bottle. Adulteration of the contents of the bottle is then possible, the consumer not benefiting from any witness of integrity or guarantee of inviolability which would guarantee that the contents of the bottle did not undergo fraudulent substitution or did not make subject to malicious tampering.
- the embossed or rolled / bonded overcap capsule not conveying today any recognition element can be easily counterfeited. Fraudsters can indeed use empty vintage bottles and copy the capsules to make counterfeits. The consumer has no way to authenticate the bottle and its packaging, and to know for sure if the wine purchased comes from the producer of said wine mentioned on the main label stuck on the front of the bottle.
- the bottles of wine after dressing with the labels and the overcap capsule also carry a lot number printed in clear, that is to say unencrypted, in the form of a barcode.
- This number is printed on the counter label, that is to say the label stuck on the back of the bottle, opposite the main label. But this lot number is not a unit number specific to each bottle produced, and traceability to the unit of bottles in case of sanitary problem is impossible.
- Some wine producers carry out a marking of an identifier or a unit code on the glass bottle, but this unit code can cause reading problems because of the low contrast of the direct marking on the bottle.
- Security labels such as those marketed by the companies Prooftag or Tesa Scribos, allow the traceability of bottles through the presence of a unique identifier. They are sometimes positioned astride the overcap and the neck of the bottle to provide a guarantee of inviolability. To remove the capsule from the bottle without damaging it and to access the wine, it is then necessary to remove the said label, making the adulteration of the wine more difficult. Nevertheless, these labels are easily peelable and repositionable using known means, without altering either the capsule or the label itself.
- the patent application FR 2 754 375 describes a heat-shrinkable plastic sleeve, intended to be affixed to the neck of a bottle, partially covering the cap.
- the sleeve is provided with a holographic element and a tear strip.
- the holographic element being partially glued to the glass of the bottle, pulling the tear strip during a legitimate opening or attempted tearing, residual fragments of the latter remain on the bottle.
- This device is relatively complex in manufacture.
- GB patent application 2 298 391 discloses a heat-shrinkable film, which may take the form of a sleeve, comprising a substrate including a holographic element and layers of adhesive. This film is intended to be inserted between an object and its packaging, so as to highlight an alteration of the packaging.
- EP 0 585 076 discloses a holographic security tape for insertion onto packaging material.
- the ribbon comprises a thermoplastic film and an adhesive layer for insertion onto the material. The film and ribbon do not ensure the integrity of the contents of the packaged object.
- the invention aims to satisfy this need, and it achieves this through a method of securing a container, in particular a bottle, comprising a closure device, in particular a stopper, in which: a heat-shrinkable safety sleeve, in particular of plastic, is retracted on a part of the container and the closing device, in particular on the neck and the stopper of the bottle, this sleeve comprising at least one security element, and
- an overcap in particular of stamped metal or metal complex, such as a wound / bonded metal complex, is threaded over the sleeve so as to cover it only partially, leaving at least partially said at least one safety element of the sleeve.
- At least one security element carried by the sleeve is directly authenticatable and does not interfere with any inscriptions appearing on the capsule.
- the heat-shrinkable safety sleeve is heated so that it retracts around the container and its closure device, for example the neck and the stopper in the case of a bottle.
- a better conformation to the relief of the end of the container is thus possible.
- the sleeve can be in direct contact with the material in which the part of the container surrounded by the sleeve is made, the latter marries the outer surface of the container and has a better adhesion thereto, thus being more difficult to remove. .
- the sleeve By “sleeve retracted on a portion of the container and the closure device”, it should be understood that the sleeve covers a portion of the container and the closure device.
- the sleeve preferably comes directly into contact with the container and can come directly or not in contact with the closure device. In the case where the latter is a stopper engaged in the neck of a bottle, the sleeve may come into contact with the upper end of the stopper or cover it at a short distance, by directly facing it.
- a heat-shrinkable safety sleeve in particular of plastic, fixed by heat-shrinking on the container and comprising at least one security element
- An overcap in particular metal or metal complex, covering only partially the sleeve, revealing at least partially said at least one security element carried by the sleeve.
- the sleeve is advantageously arranged such that, after its retraction, it covers at least partially the closure device so that any attempted fraudulent extraction of the closure device with the sleeve in place visibly alters the sleeve.
- the sleeve covers, for example, partially the outer end of the closure device of the container, that is to say the end which is devoid of contact with the contents of the latter, when the closure device is in place.
- a bottle for example containing wine
- a stopper this makes it possible to prevent the extraction of the latter without visibly affecting the sleeve.
- the sleeve can also be arranged such that, after its retraction, it does not completely cover the closure device so that, for example for a bottle of wine, the contents of the bottle can also breathe through the cap and the overcap which is then pierced for this purpose.
- the safety sleeve can be put in place as today during the final packaging of the bottle, that is to say with its label and its back label, but in a preferred mode it can be put in place on the bottle of wine right after the fired / plugged operation directly at the producer or in the cooperative, which makes it possible to secure and trace the bottle at the earliest in the production line, that is to say just after filling. Thus, attempts at adulteration and counterfeiting before labeling can be avoided.
- the sleeve covers after retraction preferably from 5% to 100% of the total surface of the outer end of the closure device of the container.
- the sleeve once thermally retracted covers only the sides of the closure device fixed on the container, and not the top of the device, for example in the case where the container is a container closed by a cap or a screw cap .
- the safety sleeve once retracted on the container, may have a length of skirt greater than the length of the skirt of the overcap of the container, and thus protrude from the capsule by a lower end portion, on which unless a security element can be present.
- the heat-shrinkable safety sleeve comprises at least in its lower part not covered by the overcap closure at least one identifier.
- the lower part of the sleeve protruding from the overcap may also have an identifier, for example a unit identification code marked by printing or etching on the lower part of the skirt.
- the upper part of the sleeve located opposite to that protruding from the overcap may comprise at least one second security element and / or authentication and / or inviolability and / or traceability and / or identification .
- the safety sleeve preferably comprises in its upper part, a release means, in particular micro-perforations or micro-cuts and / or a tear strip (called "tear tape” in English).
- This release means facilitates the removal of the upper part of the sleeve which protects the opening device, during the manual opening of the container by the final consumer.
- the presence of this release means which irreversibly alters the safety sleeve during the opening of the container, thus prevents any fraudulent act on the container or the contents.
- micro-perforations or micro-cuts can be arranged in the form of horizontal or vertical lines on the security sleeve or in a particular pattern, so as to cause an inevitable tearing of the sleeve during its removal and prevent the repositioning of the latter on the container after accessing its contents.
- the releasing means may consist of at least one horizontal line of micro-perforations and at least one vertical line of micro-perforations.
- the horizontal line of micro-perforations of the release means may for example be located on, above or below the ring of the container, for example in the case of a bottle of wine.
- the vertical line of micro-perforations of the release means may for example be located in the axis of revolution of the container, perpendicularly to the ring and / or the neck of the container in the case of a bottle of wine.
- the release means comprises or consists of two vertical and parallel micro-cutout lines.
- the release means comprises or consists of two vertical and parallel micro-cutout lines and a horizontal micro-perforation line perpendicular to the vertical micro-cutout lines.
- the release means comprises or consists of two lines of parallel and vertical or horizontal micro-perforations and a tear strip located between these two lines.
- the release means of the sleeve is preferably placed at a safety element of the sleeve; for example, it can pass through this security element, especially perpendicularly. It is thus easy to highlight, by the alteration of the security element of the sleeve, the possible damage to the integrity of the container.
- the release means of the sleeve, in particular the tear tape may furthermore comprise at least one security element, facilitating its authentication. It may also include an antenna providing an anti-theft function.
- the release means in particular the tear tape, may further comprise a gripping tab of the tear strip, facilitating its actuation by the user.
- This gripping tongue may itself be carrying a security element.
- the remaining portion of the sleeve may advantageously serve as means for dewatering said content during its pouring.
- the safety element or elements present in the lower part of the skirt of the safety sleeve not covered by the overcap and / or in the upper part of the safety sleeve may have a so-called first, second or third level safety feature. .
- First-level security means a security element visible to the naked eye, in daylight or artificial light, without the use of a particular device.
- These first-level security elements may be first-level elements with an optically variable effect, such as, for example, interferential platelet particles, magnetic or otherwise, liquid and / or oriented and / or photonic crystals, a holographic element or a network. of lenses in combination with an underlying pattern.
- “Second-level security” means a safety element that is always visible to the naked eye, but only with a relatively simple device, such as a lamp emitting in the ultraviolet (UV) or infrared (IR) or a magnifying glass or decoder tool type optical filter or a polarizing filter.
- These second-level security elements are for example luminescent, that is to say have a specific emission in the visible under the illumination of a Wood lamp emitting in the UV for example at a wavelength of 365 nm .
- These second level elements can also be anti stokes elements, that is to say have a specific emission in the visible under the illumination of an IR pointer for example at a wavelength of 980 nm.
- Second-level security is also understood to mean security that can be revealed by heat and / or friction.
- security elements are for example capable of generating a specific signal when they are subjected, simultaneously or not, to one or more sources of external stress. This signal is processed then analyzed by a dedicated detection device for authentication or identification of the element.
- security elements comprise for example tracers or materials in the form of active materials, particles or fibers, capable of generating a specific signal when these tracers are subjected to a mechanical stress, thermal, optronic, electrical, magnetic or electromagnetic.
- the security element or elements of the sleeve may be in the form of an impression, a wire, a flat strip, a foil or a patch, being affixed to the inside or outside of the sleeve .
- the security element (s) of the sleeve may also be integrated in the polymer mass of the heat-shrinkable sleeve.
- the security element or elements may in particular be printed on the inner face of the sleeve in contact with the glass.
- the sleeve obtained from a folded film on itself followed by a meeting of two free edges.
- This film, before folding, can be printed by well-known printing processes, such as gravure, screen printing, flexography or offset.
- the film is printed with security inks of first, second and / or third level in the lower portion of the sleeve skirt which will remain visible after retraction of the sleeve on the container to be protected and set. place of the overcap capsule.
- the security impressions present on the sleeve will be made so that they remain visible and / or detectable after retraction of the sleeve on the container and its closure device, relying on anamorphose techniques.
- the first level safety element or elements present on the lower and / or upper part of the safety sleeve may be elements with an optically variable effect, such as, for example, interferential platelet particles, magnetic or otherwise, liquid crystals and / or oriented and / or photonic, a holographic element or a lens array in combination with an underlying pattern.
- the second level security element (s) present on the lower part and / or the upper part of the security sleeve may be elements that are invisible to the naked eye under daylight but visible under particular wavelength lighting.
- the safety sleeve may also comprise thermochromic elements, in particular liquid crystals and / or pigments and / or thermochromic dyes, which can change appearance at at least one predefined temperature.
- the container may then include at least one information associated with the thermochromic elements, providing information on the temperature of change of appearance of the thermochromic elements, so qualitative and / or quantitative, and so on the temperature of the container and approximately that of its contents.
- thermochromic elements for example their coloration or their transparency, varies according to the temperature to which they are subjected.
- the process of varying the appearance of the thermochromic elements is preferably reversible.
- the information may correspond to the numerical value of the temperature of change of appearance of the thermochromic elements.
- the security sleeve may also include an RFID device comprising an integrated circuit, with or without an integrated battery, with or without a microprocessor, with or without a sensor, for example temperature recording.
- the sleeve may comprise the following security elements, alone or in combination:
- thermochromic pigments arranged to indicate the temperature of the container and therefore approximately that of its contents, in particular in printed form or mixed with a constituent material of the sleeve,
- HI-LITE visible or not visible, in particular luminescent
- security fibers in particular metallic, magnetic (with soft magnetism and / or hard), or absorbing, or excitable with ultraviolet, the visible or the infrared, and in particular the near infrared (NIR), an automatically readable security having specific and measurable luminescence characteristics (eg fluorescence, phosphorescence), light absorption (eg ultraviolet, visible or infrared), Raman activity, magnetism, microwave interaction , RF interaction, X-ray interaction or electrical conductivity.
