Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for protecting a container from shocks and to a container thus protected.
- glass bottles containing a liquid are used.
- the document O2011006089 describes a bottle integrally covered with a sleeve of elastomeric material.
- the document US20100072162 illustrates a glass vial covered with a protection comprising two half-shells added around the vial.
- Document CN201912469 illustrates a bottle with a lower cup nested on the bottom of the bottle, and a ring that is positioned on the thread that receives the ferrule carrying the pacifier.
- the invention aims to offer an alternative to known methods of protecting containers.
- a method of impact protection of a container having a body which is terminated on one side by a bottom and on the other side by a transition portion terminating in a neck comprising the steps of: - placing on the container a lower cup which covers the bottom of the container to protrude laterally from the container body;
- the cups are secured to the bottle by the heat-shrink sleeve and constitute bumper contributing to the protection of the bottle and limiting the risk of breakage of the bottle.
- the cups are firmly held on the bottle by the sleeve which can, if necessary, contribute to the shock absorption.
- the sleeve makes it possible, in case of breakage of the bottle, to prevent the dispersion of glass pieces.
- the cups are firmly secured and can not escape the container.
- the cups change the shape of the container ensuring a more optimal grip. A user can thus more easily handle the container which implicitly reduces the risk of falling of said container. This is particularly true in the case where the container body is of circular cylindrical shape, the cups "breaking" the line of said body.
- the cups are made of deformable material, adapted to confer effective protection. More preferably, the cups delimit with the container an annular volume filled with air.
- the body of the container is of circular cylindrical shape.
- the container body is of a simple shape which facilitates cleaning.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a container equipped with the cups according to the invention.
- Figures 2a and 2b are perspective views of an upper cup used on the container of Figure 1;
- Figures 3a to 3c are perspective views of a lower cup used on the container of Figure 1;
- FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the container being equipped, with the cups already positioned, being covered by a heat-shrinkable sleeve.
- Figure 5 is a sectional view of the finished container with the heat shrunk sleeve
- Figure 6 is a perspective view of a container provided with another upper cup.
- the method of the invention consists in equipping a container, here a glass bottle 1 which comprises a body 2 here substantially cylindrical circular and terminated at its bottom by a bottom, and a neck 3 connected to the body 1 by a transition portion 4.
- the bottle 1 is thus provided with a lower cup 5 which fits on the bottom end of the bottle to cover a bottom thereof, and an upper cup 6 which is threaded onto the bottle to take support on the transition zone of the bottle. It is found that the cups protrude from the side wall of the body 2 to form dampers protecting the bottle 1 in case of shock thereof.
- the upper cup 6 has a generally domed shape and has an upper opening 7 (here square) to pass the neck 3 of the bottle 1.
- the upper cup 5 here comprises a first stiffener 8 peripheral in the form of a circular bead which protrudes from the inner face of the upper cup 6 to bear against the wall of the bottle 1, and a second peripheral stiffener in the form of a skirt 10 which terminates the cup upper 5 and which defines an end lip which comes into contact with the wall of the bottle 1.
- the upper cup 6 has a generally convex shape protruding largely from the side wall of the container body having outwardly a convex surface adapted to enter into contact with any obstacle against which the bottle would be projected.
- the lower cup 5 comprises a bottom 11 bearing here three bosses 12 to allow the abutment of the bottom 11 of the lower cup against the bottom of the bottle 1.
- the bottom 11 is associated with a collar 13 terminated by a skirt 14 which defines an end lip coming into contact with the wall of the bottle 1.
- the bottom 11 is pre-cut to allow the release and folding of a tab 15 may for example be used to suspend the bottle 1.
- the lower cup 5 affects a generally domed shape protruding largely from the side wall of the container body outwardly having a convex surface adapted to come into contact with any obstacle against which the bottle would be projected.
- the cups 5, 6 have shapes which define with the wall of the bottle 1 annular volumes 16 filled with air which participate in the absorption of the shocks.
- the assembly is covered with a sleeve 20 of thermoformable material by threading the sleeve 20 over all (vertical arrows).
- a sleeve 20 of thermoformable material by threading the sleeve 20 over all (vertical arrows).
- the external shapes of the cups facilitate the passage and guiding of the sleeve 20 around the bottle.
- the thickness of the sleeve 20 has been exaggerated here, but in reality it is only a few micrometers.
- the sleeve 20 then marries the outer shape of the assembly and firmly holds the cups on the bottle. It will be ensured that the sleeve substantially covers the sides of the cups 5,6.
- the sleeve can also cover the neck with its cap, to provide an anti-opening protection.
- the sleeve will then preferably have a circumferential precut substantially at the base of the neck to allow the release of the cap while maintaining the rest of the sleeve around the assembly.
- the sleeve plays several roles. In addition to its role of cohesion of the assembly consisting of the bottle and the cups, the sleeve prevents, in case of breakage of the bottle, the pieces of glass to disperse. In addition, the sleeve is tight on the cups and thus ensures a tightness of all, even if the bottle leaks. Finally, the sleeve may itself be made of a flexible material capable of participating in shock absorption.
- the vial thus equipped can be stored with other vials in the same package, the cups vials that can touch and clash without risk.
- the sleeve is made from a styrene oriented film, for example the film referenced OPS TF / 095 XB from the company SLEEVER INTERNATIONAL.
- This film has a high transparency (which makes it possible to monitor the level of liquid in the bottle, as long as the bottle is itself transparent), as well as a large printing capacity. Its maximum retraction rate exceeds 75%.
- the cups are manufactured by injectable resin molding, for example a low density polyethylene resin.
- the cups are of deformable material.
- FIG. 6 a bottle equipped with an upper cup 60 which has tabs 61 which extend towards the neck allowing the clipping of the cup under a rim of the neck of the bottle, so that the upper cup is trapped on the bottle before it is covered by the thermoformable sleeve.
- the upper cup has longitudinal stiffeners 62 (one of them is here seen in transparency) which rest on the wall of the bottle to provide a volume of air between the cup and the bottle.
- the cups have a circular periphery, it will be possible to give at least one of the cups a polygonal periphery to facilitate the setting of the containers thus equipped in a common packaging, or prevent any rolling of the container.
- the invention is particularly intended to protect glass containers, it will of course be possible to apply the method of the invention to other containers, if it is important to confer them an increased resistance to shocks.
