Description

Emballage pour produits consommables  Packaging for consumables
La présente invention a trait à un emballage pour produits consommables, notamment alimentaires, ledit emballage comprenant un double récipient et à l'utilisation de cet emballage. Plus particulièrement, l'invention concerne l'utilisation d'un emballage comprenant un double récipient pour mollusques ou crustacés, préférentiellement pour mollusques tels que des moules. The present invention relates to a packaging for consumable products, especially food, said packaging comprising a double container and the use of this packaging. More particularly, the invention relates to the use of a package comprising a double container for molluscs or crustaceans, preferably for molluscs such as mussels.
Avec le monde de la consommation dans lequel nous vivons actuellement se repose continuellement le problème de la pollution environnementale engendrée par la consommation quelquefois sauvage de toutes sortes de produits, notamment à forte valeur ajoutée, tels que des mollusques ou crustacés avec leurs carcasses odorantes ou même de luxe. Il peut aussi s'agir de vivres périssables courantes, comme un simple sandwiche et leurs accompagnements ou des fruits par exemple qui après leur consommation peut amener son lot de déchets comme par exemple les noyaux, la serviette sale, les restes de pain, l'emballage des vivres, les couverts jetables. With the world of consumption in which we currently live, the problem of environmental pollution engendered by the sometimes savage consumption of all kinds of products, especially with high added value, such as shellfish with their scented carcasses or even luxury. It can also be common perishable food, such as a simple sandwich and their accompaniments or fruits for example that after their consumption can bring his share of waste such as stones, dirty towel, leftover bread, packing food, disposable cutlery.
Les autorités sont bien souvent débordées avec la conséquence dommageable d'un paysage de désolation dans nos villes et campagnes, qui sont trop fréquemment envahies par ces dépôts non autorisés de déchets, à tel point que c'est devenu un véritable fléau. The authorities are often overwhelmed with the damaging consequence of a landscape of desolation in our cities and countryside, which are too frequently invaded by these unauthorized deposits of waste, to the point that it has become a real scourge.
Dans le cas de produits frais, tels que fruits de mer comme les moules par exemple, avec la situation actuelle, les coquilles et les restes du jus de cuisson des moules dégagent des odeurs nauséabondes dans les poubelles, qu'elles soient domestiques ou industrielles en ce qui concerne les restaurants. In the case of fresh products, such as seafood such as mussels for example, with the current situation, the shells and remnants of the cooking juices of the molds emit foul smells in garbage cans, whether domestic or industrial in nature. regarding restaurants.
Ce dernier point n'est pas à négliger, en ce sens que les odeurs attirent des animaux affamés notamment sauvages, les pigeons, les mouettes, et même des rats qui sont porteurs de nombreuses maladies. II s'agit donc d'un problème de santé publique. This last point is not to be overlooked, in that the smells attract hungry animals including wild birds, pigeons, seagulls, and even rats that are carriers of many diseases. It is therefore a public health problem.
Certes, il existe des éléments d'emballages apportant un début de solution à ces problèmes, sans toutefois satisfaire l'attente à cet égard. C'est le cas notamment pour le dispositif divulgué dans le document ES-2308947 Al, qui fournit bien un emballage pour mollusques sous forme d'un récipient promis à contribuer à augmenter davantage encore la charge polluante des déchets laissés par leur consommation, sans fournir de moyens pour y remédier. II en va de même pour le dispositif divulgué dans le document WO 03/013279 A2 et A3, décrivant quant à lui un emballage se présentant sous la forme d'un double récipient ainsi qu'un procédé de préparation de fruits de mer, ledit document restant en défaut de proposer des moyens pour remédier à la pollution causée par la consommation de ceux-ci et les carcasses laissées. Certainly, there are elements of packaging providing a beginning of solution to these problems, without however satisfying the expectation in this regard. This is particularly the case for the device disclosed in the document ES-2308947 A1, which provides a container for molluscs in the form of a container that will contribute to further increase the pollutant load of waste left by their consumption, without providing means to remedy it. The same applies to the device disclosed in document WO 03/013279 A2 and A3, describing a packaging in the form of a double container as well as a method for preparing seafood, said document remaining in default to propose means to remedy the pollution caused by the consumption of these and the carcasses left.
C'est encore et toujours le cas pour le dispositif d'emballage divulgué dans le document NL- 9400391- A, qui fournit encore un emballage pour mollusques, ledit emballage se présentant sous la forme d'un récipient et ne fournissant pas de moyens d'évacuation des coquilles restant après la consommation de ceux-ci. This is and still is the case for the packaging device disclosed in NL-9400391-A, which still provides a shellfish package, said package being in the form of a container and not providing a means of packaging. evacuation of shells remaining after consumption thereof.
Le document WO 87/02965 Al divulgue un emballage sous forme d'un double récipient pour produits consommables tel que de la viande du poisson, de la volaille ou des légumes, ledit emballage comprenant un récipient intérieur sous forme de poche plastique flexible. Ledit document ne mentionne aucunement l'utilisation de moyens d'évacuation des déchets. WO 87/02965 A1 discloses a package in the form of a double container for consumables such as meat of fish, poultry or vegetables, said package comprising an inner container in the form of a flexible plastic bag. The said document makes no mention of the use of waste disposal means.
Le document US 6243936 Bl divulgue un emballage sous forme d'un double récipient pour produits consommables tel que des médicaments, ledit emballage comprenant un récipient intérieur monobloc. Ledit document ne mentionne aucunement l'utilisation de moyens d'évacuation des déchets. US 6243936 B1 discloses a package in the form of a double container for consumables such as drugs, said package comprising a single-piece inner container. The said document makes no mention of the use of waste disposal means.
Le document US 3550803 divulgue un emballage sous forme d'un double récipient pour produits consommables tel que des compositions cosmétiques, ledit emballage comprenant un récipient intérieur monobloc en plastique. En outre, ledit document ne mentionne également aucunement l'utilisation de moyens d'évacuation des déchets. US 3550803 discloses a package in the form of a double container for consumables such as cosmetic compositions, said package comprising a one-piece plastic inner container. In addition, the said document also makes no mention of the use of waste disposal means.
Il y a donc là une sérieuse lacune en matière de gestion de l'environnement qu'il convient de combler par des gestes qui contribuent à vivre dans un environnement plus propre. Rendre son environnement domestique ou de travail plus propre, c'est en éloigner les animaux porteurs et colporteurs de germes responsables de nombreuses maladies. There is therefore a serious gap in environmental management that needs to be addressed through actions that contribute to living in a cleaner environment. To make one's home or work environment cleaner is to keep the carrier animals and peddlers away from germs that are responsible for many diseases.

Selon un autre de ses aspects, la présente invention a pour objet une utilisation d'emballage pour fruits de mers comprenant un double récipient, ledit double récipient comprenant : According to another of its aspects, the present invention relates to a use of seafood packaging comprising a double container, said double container comprising:
• un premier récipient extérieur, qui est composé d'un corps s'étendant à partir d'un fond et renfermant un espace intérieur, et qui est muni d'un col muni d'une ouverture de remplissage, A first outer container, which is composed of a body extending from a bottom and enclosing an interior space, and which is provided with a neck provided with a filling opening,
• un second récipient intérieur amovible agencé dans l'espace intérieur du premier récipient extérieur, telle que le second récipient intérieur préalablement conditionné et rempli de fruits de mer pourvus de leurs coquilles, en particulier de moules, est d'abord retire (C) du premier récipient extérieur, en ce que le récipient intérieur est ensuite ouvert (D) de façon à en retirer les moules qui sont cuisinées, tandis que le premier récipient extérieur est mis à disposition du consommateur sur le lieu de consommation pour y collecter les coquilles vides au fur et à mesure de la consommation des mollusques, en ce que après remplissage du premier récipient extérieur jusqu'à un niveau se situant en deçà du plan de l'orifice, le moyen de fermeture est refermé à fond pour être évacué aux rebuts. A second removable inner receptacle arranged in the interior space of the first outer receptacle, such that the second inner receptacle, previously conditioned and filled with seafood provided with their shells, in particular molds, is first removed (C) from first container outside, in that the inner container is then opened (D) so as to remove the molds that are cooked, while the first outer container is made available to the consumer at the place of consumption to collect the empty shells as and as the consumption of the molluscs, in that after filling the first outer container to a level lying below the plane of the orifice, the closing means is closed again to be discharged waste.
Ainsi un emballage comprenant un double récipient permet de par sa structure d'utiliser le second récipient intérieur comme emballage primaire temporaire jetable pour fruits de mer et le premier réservoir extérieur comme réservoir poubelle de rebut. Le double récipient est remarquable en ce que le second récipient intérieur amovible est agencé au sein du premier réservoir extérieur, dans l'espace intérieur dudit premier réservoir extérieur, est destiné à recevoir temporairement lesdits fruits de mer et à être retiré pour la consommation de ceux-ci, le premier récipient extérieur étant destiné à recevoir les déchets des fruits de mer (carapaces ou coquilles) après leur consommation suite à leur retrait dudit second récipient intérieur dans lequel ils sont initialement contenus, de façon à former ainsi un réservoir de rebut ou poubelle temporaire. A cet égard, le second récipient intérieur amovible ne reçoit que temporairement lesdits fruits de mer et est retiré du premier récipient extérieur pour la consommation de ceux-ci, tandis que le premier récipient extérieur reçoit les déchets associés à la consommation desdits fruits de mer, ledit emballage se présente donc comme un système « tout-en-un » intégrant d'une part un emballage jetable et d'autre part une poubelle. Thus a package comprising a double container allows by its structure to use the second inner container as disposable temporary primary packaging for seafood and the first outer tank as a waste bin. The double container is remarkable in that the second removable inner container is arranged within the first outer tank, in the inner space of said first outer tank, is intended to temporarily receive said seafood and to be removed for consumption of those the first outer container being intended to receive the seafood waste (shells or shells) after their consumption following their removal from said second inner container in which they are initially contained, so as to form a waste container or temporary trash. In this regard, the second removable inner container receives only temporarily said seafood and is removed from the first outer container for consumption thereof, while the first outer container receives the waste associated with the consumption of said seafood, said packaging is therefore an "all-in-one" system integrating on the one hand a disposable packaging and on the other hand a bin.
L'utilisation d'un emballage comprenant un double récipient suivant la présente invention, permet de réduire considérablement la pollution environnementale en ce sens que le premier récipient extérieur sert de poubelle aux déchets générés par la consommation des fruits de mer contenus dans le second récipient intérieur. Par les termes « fruits de mer », on entend plus particulièrement désigner : The use of a package comprising a double container according to the present invention makes it possible to considerably reduce environmental pollution in that the first outer container serves as a trash for waste generated by the consumption of seafood contained in the second inner container. . By the term "seafood" is meant in particular:
• les coquillages, mollusques à coquille, notamment bivalves tels que les huîtres, les moules, les palourdes, les coques, les pétoncles les myes, les couteaux de mer, les vernis, les amandes, les coquilles Saint- Jacques, les tellines, • shellfish, molluscs with shell, especially bivalves such as oysters, mussels, clams, cockles, scallops, clams, sea-knives, varnishes, almonds, scallops, tellines,
• les escargots de mer, mollusques de la classe des gastéropodes tels que les bigorneaux, les buccins, les bulots. • les crustacés, invertébrés à exosquelette (carapace) ou à pédoncule tels que les crevettes, les crabes, les langoustines, les homards et les pouce-pieds • sea snails, molluscs of the gastropod class such as periwinkles, whelks, whelks. • crustaceans, invertebrates with exoskeletons (carapace) or stalks such as shrimps, crabs, langoustines, lobsters and thumbs
• les oursins. • sea urchins.
Selon une utilisation avantageuse, le moyen de fermeture est refermé après remplissage du premier récipient extérieur, l'emballage et son contenu étant récupéré pour traitement et recyclage ultérieur. According to an advantageous use, the closing means is closed after filling of the first outer container, the packaging and its contents being recovered for treatment and subsequent recycling.
L'utilisation selon l'invention d'un emballage pour fruits de mer comprenant un double récipient tend à réduire les productions bactériennes et autres productions biologiques et chimiques dues à la dégradation des matières, ces productions étant nocives pour la santé de l'homme notamment par le fait qu'elles sont véhiculées par des animaux à partir des tas d'ordures et sacs poubelles ouverts accidentellement ou mal fermes vers des lieux de vie des humains. Une fois le premier récipient extérieur rempli, celui-ci est soigneusement fermé, aucune odeur et aucun liquide ne peuvent s'en échapper, et c'est là aussi une spécificité importante de l'invention par rapport à la situation existante ou les coquilles des moules, par exemple, dégagent des odeurs très fortes dans les poubelles domestiques ou industrielles. The use according to the invention of a seafood package comprising a double container tends to reduce bacterial production and other biological and chemical production due to the degradation of materials, these productions being harmful to human health in particular by the fact that they are carried by animals from piles of garbage and garbage bags accidentally opened or badly closed to places of human life. Once the first outer container filled, it is carefully closed, no odor and no liquid can escape, and this is also an important feature of the invention compared to the existing situation or the shells of molds, for example, give off very strong odors in domestic or industrial garbage cans.
En cas de grève des éboueurs, par exemple, les poubelles s'amoncellent très vite, et les dangers pour la santé publique sont réels. Grâce à l'invention, ces déchets ménagers sont secs, inertes, emballés hermétiquement, rendant les conséquences pour la santé publique moins inquiétantes en de telles circonstances d'amoncellement où le facteur chaleur ne fait qu'aggraver la situation. En outre, un apport important de l'invention réside dans le double emballage, avec le second récipient intérieur hermétique contenant les moules dans leur état de fraîcheur, ne laissant passer aucune odeur et aucun liquide, étant lui-même emballé dans un premier récipient extérieur propre en forme de grande bouteille, de forme ronde ou carrée, munie d'un bouchon extrêmement large, ledit second récipient intérieur étant quasi aussi large que le premier récipient extérieur et servant de récipient pour accueillir sur la table du consommateur final les coquilles vides des moules qui ont été dégustées. De plus, la présence de ce type de récipient prend moins de place sur la table que les traditionnels couvercles de casseroles retournés ou les plats souvent trop étendus. In the event of a strike by garbage collectors, for example, garbage cans pile up very quickly, and the dangers to public health are real. Thanks to the invention, this household waste is dry, inert, hermetically packaged, making the consequences for public health less worrying in such circumstances of accumulation where the heat factor only worsens the situation. In addition, an important contribution of the invention lies in the double packaging, with the second hermetic inner container containing the molds in their state of freshness, not letting any odor or liquid pass, being itself packaged in a first outer container in the form of a large bottle, of round or square shape, provided with an extremely wide stopper, said second inner container being almost as wide as the first outer container and serving as a container for accommodating on the table of the final consumer the empty shells of the mussels that were tasted. In addition, the presence of this type of container takes up less space on the table than traditional pan lids returned or dishes often too extensive.

La présente invention se rapporte notamment à l'utilisation d'un emballage pour fruits de mer (2), plus particulièrement pour moules (2), comprenant un double récipient (1), ledit double récipient (1) comprenant un premier récipient extérieur (10) et un second récipient intérieur (20) amovible agencé dans l'espace intérieur du premier récipient extérieur (10), avec récupération du premier récipient extérieur (10) pour recevoir les carcasses ou coquilles vides (3), plus particulièrement les coquilles vides (3), et les contenir hermétiquement sans laisser s'échapper des odeurs nauséabondes et des liquides. The present invention relates in particular to the use of a seafood package (2), more particularly for molds (2), comprising a double container (1), said double container (1) comprising a first external container ( 10) and a second removable inner container (20) arranged in the interior space of the first outer container (10), with recovery of the first outer container (10) to receive the empty carcasses or shells (3), more particularly the empty shells (3), and hold them tightly without letting out foul odors and liquids.
Il s'agit d'un emballage pour conditionner les moules lors de la vente mais qui servira aussi à récupérer les coquilles de moules. L'emballage est constitué de deux récipients distincts (10, 20), l'un venant se glisser dans l'autre. Ainsi, l'emballage se compose essentiellement d'un second récipient intérieur (20) pouvant contenir des fruits de mer (2) tandis que le premier récipient extérieur (10) servira de poubelle aux déchets (3). It is a packaging to condition the molds during the sale but will also serve to recover the mussel shells. The package consists of two separate containers (10, 20), one slipping into the other. Thus, the package consists essentially of a second inner container (20) which may contain seafood (2) while the first outer container (10) will serve as garbage bin (3).
Le premier récipient extérieur (10) est un récipient en plastique, préférentiellement en plastique recyclable, mais pouvant être aussi en une autre matière qui peut être décoré. C'est un récipient de forme circulaire d'une hauteur pouvant varier entre 20 et 40 centimètres. Son diamètre à la base est de 12 à 14 centimètres maximum. Son diamètre sera en général constant mais si dans certains cas le récipient prend des formes plus particulières comme par exemple la forme d'une coquille de moule, le diamètre ne sera pas constant. Le premier récipient extérieur (10) est muni d'un bouchon (15) à visser mais il pourra aussi être équipé d'un système de fermeture adhésif parfaitement hermétique qui ne laisse passer aucune odeur et aucun liquide. Il pourra être équipé d'une petite lanière en plastique (90), préférentiellement en plastique recyclable, pour faciliter son transport et notamment pour en porter plusieurs à la fois dans une seule main. Le second récipient intérieur (20) est un plastique, préférentiellement en plastique recyclable, en forme cylindrique qui mesure entre 18 et 39 centimètres de hauteur et de 10 à 12 cm de largeur qui contient les moules (2) dans un milieu adapté à leur bonne conservation et qui est parfaitement hermétique. Ce second récipient intérieur (20) est glissé dans le premier récipient extérieur (10) pour la commercialisation. The first outer container (10) is a plastic container, preferably of recyclable plastic, but can also be another material that can be decorated. It is a circular container with a height that can vary between 20 and 40 centimeters. Its diameter at the base is 12 to 14 centimeters maximum. Its diameter will generally be constant but if in some cases the container takes more specific forms such as for example the shape of a mold shell, the diameter will not be constant. The first outer container (10) is provided with a cap (15) to be screwed but it can also be equipped with a perfectly hermetic adhesive closure system that does not let any odor and no liquid pass. It may be equipped with a small plastic strap (90), preferably made of recyclable plastic, for easy transportation and especially to carry several at a time in one hand. The second inner container (20) is a plastic, preferably of recyclable plastic, cylindrical in shape which is between 18 and 39 centimeters in height and 10 to 12 cm wide which contains the molds (2) in a medium adapted to their good conservation and that is perfectly hermetic. This second inner container (20) is slid into the first outer container (10) for marketing.
Une fois retiré du premier récipient extérieur (10), le second récipient intérieur (20) est ouvert et les moules (2) sont cuisinées tandis que le premier récipient extérieur (10), plus grand et muni d'un bouchon (15), va être déposé sur la table pour récupérer les coquilles vides (3). Une fois plein, le bouchon (15) est vissé et le tout est hermétique et peut aller soit dans un centre de traitement des coquilles (3), soit à la poubelle sans odeur nauséabonde et sans fuite de liquide. Once removed from the first outer container (10), the second inner container (20) is opened and the molds (2) are cooked while the first outer container (10), larger and provided with a cap (15), will be placed on the table to retrieve the empty shells (3). Once full, the cap (15) is screwed and the whole is hermetic and can go either in a shells processing center (3), or in the trash can without foul odor and without leakage of liquid.
Cette utilisation de ce type d'emballage permet de réduire la pollution urbaine en ce sens que le premier récipient extérieur (10) fait office de poubelle aux déchets (3) de ce qui a été contenu par le second emballage intérieur (20). A cet égard, l'utilisation telle que décrite d'un emballage avec possibilités d'enfermer hermétiquement les déchets tend à réduire les productions bactériennes et autres productions biologiques et chimiques dues à la dégradation des matières, ces productions étant nocives pour la santé de l'homme notamment par le fait qu'ils sont véhiculés par certains animaux à partir des tas d'ordures et sacs poubelles ouverts accidentellement ou mal fermés vers des lieux de vie des humains. This use of this type of packaging makes it possible to reduce urban pollution in that the first outer container (10) serves as a waste bin (3) of what has been contained by the second inner package (20). In this respect, the use as described of a package with possibilities of hermetically enclosing the waste tends to reduce bacterial production and other biological and chemical production due to the degradation of materials, these productions being harmful to the health of the body. particularly by the fact that they are carried by certain animals from piles of garbage and garbage bags accidentally opened or badly closed to places of human life.
De manière tout-à-fait remarquable, par cette utilisation, le premier récipient extérieur (20) servira à accueillir les déchets généralement polluants des produits contenus par le second récipient intérieur (20) après usage de ceux -ci. Remarkably, by this use, the first outer container (20) will serve to receive the generally polluting waste products contained by the second inner container (20) after use thereof.
Le couvercle (15 du premier récipient extérieur (20) sera muni d'une languette de sécurité (80) qui garantit au consommateur que ledit récipient (10) n'a pas été ouvert par un tiers. The lid (15 of the first outer container (20) will be provided with a safety tab (80) which assures the consumer that said container (10) has not been opened by a third party.
Le premier récipient extérieur (10) et le second récipient intérieur (20) peuvent être liés par une languette (51) extrêmement fragile qui se rompt à la première traction, signe supplémentaire que le produit est sorti pour la première fois de son emballage. The first outer container (10) and the second inner container (20) can be linked by an extremely fragile tab (51) which breaks on the first pull, a further sign that the product has been removed for the first time from its packaging.
Tant le premier récipient extérieur (10) que les coquilles (3) sont à recycler, car on pourrait organiser la récupération des coquilles (3) ainsi collectées, les broyer pour les ajouter à du ciment ou du béton au comme sous-bassement routiers. Both the first outer container (10) and the shells (3) are to be recycled, because one could organize the recovery of the shells (3) thus collected, grind them to add them to cement or concrete to as under-basement road.
