Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of packaging and more particularly the field of packaging intended to contain a substance whose restitution is obtained by pressure exerted manually on the packaging and / or by gravity. It finds for particularly advantageous application the agro-food, industrial, cosmetic, domestic, pharmacological and health sectors in general.
  • a socket pocket consists of a conical pocket having two ends of different sections. The largest end is not closed but open.
  • Devices of this type have drawbacks related to their poor restitution, the absence of a cap and therefore the need to use the content in its entirety at the risk of significant waste.
  • the socket bags do not retain their form by themselves and can not be rested on a work plan without seeing their contents spill.
  • the use of a piping bag allows very good handling, a precise touch and therefore a significant "product" sensation, very good control of the doses delivered and a very good return of the product.
  • the field of packaging also uses bottles or bottles formed of a continuous external envelope in a plastic-type material but also tubes. These packs have a better vertical retention than a piping bag. They usually have a cap to close the packaging. Finally, they allow an easy deposit of the content.
  • this type of packaging has a very low return of the product. Indeed, at the end of use, there remains a significant amount of product that can not be extracted. Moreover, they are not pleasant to the touch.
  • WO 2012/017938 A1 and US 2005/0265636 A1 disclose packages comprising a pouch for containing a product and allowing its recovery, and comprising: a manually deformable envelope, the first film being closed on itself so as to form a trunk having a first and a second end, the section of the trunk narrowing as it approaches the first end; a base formed of a second film and sealed to the second end of the trunk so as to close the second end, the base and the envelope being sealed flesh against flesh to form together a manually deformable pocket; a closure device through which the product is intended to flow during the restitution.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device that solves at least some of the aforementioned drawbacks.
  • This device allows a very good handling and a touch, a sensation "product" very important. Indeed, it has the advantage of the sleeve pocket, namely a flexible body, deformable by a simple pressure exerted manually by the user with one or two hands. The flexibility of the pocket allows a very good return of the product and improves the control of the pressure exerted. This level of control allows a very precise distribution of doses. Finally, this pocket has an improved vertical support, sleeve upwards, by the cooperation of the flexible envelope with the flexible base. Indeed, the envelope / base seal provides mechanical reinforcement of the pocket. This seal has a thickness which is the sum of the thicknesses of the envelope and the base. In addition, depending on the type of accessory used at the socket, the device can be held vertically, socket down. This advantageous position facilitates the flow of the product inside the flexible bag.
  • an envelope is said to be “flexible” or “flexible” when it is formed of a film that does not support its own weight.
  • the envelope is formed of a film which does not hold itself when it is arranged horizontally and is held only by one of its ends.
  • the width of the film is greater than 2 cm (10 -2 m), its length is greater than 5 cm and its thickness is greater than 0.01 cm. According to one embodiment, its thickness is greater than 0.001 cm.
  • the film has the following dimensions: 3 cm long, 10 cm wide and 0.013 cm thick.
  • the film has a thickness of at least 0.001 cm.
  • the term "flexible pouch” or its equivalents is defined, inter alia, by a volume that can be reduced by at least one third, preferably by at least half, and preferably at least two-thirds under the effect of the pressure exerted by one or two hands of the user. This effect is typically a compression effort during which the user closes these fingers on his palm.
  • This volume preferably has a single output.
  • standard force that a hand can exert is defined as the force that an adult can exercise with his hand.
  • skin has the definition of the face of the film turned towards the outside of the product to be contained.
  • substitution is defined as the ratio between the quantity of product initially contained in the packaging and the content remaining at the end of use and that it is not or that it is only very difficult to extract.
  • the "longitudinal" direction is taken along the axis according to which the trunk has its maximum dimension.
  • this axis extends from the first to the second end, that is to say from the base to the closure device. In the figures, this axis is vertical.
  • the present invention 1 comprises a flexible envelope 201.
  • This envelope 201 consists of a film. This film is closed on itself. This film, once closed on itself, forms a trunk.
  • a trunk may have a section of any shape without being limited to a circular section. This trunk has a first and a second end. The section of this trunk thus formed narrows as it approaches the first end.
  • This trunk is made by sealing "skin against flesh" of the film over a width of the envelope of between 1 and 20 mm and preferably between 1 and 5 mm and preferably equal to 5 mm. This type of sealing allows a better grip of the device by a user, as well as a more homogeneous deformation.
  • the film is preferably a multilayer film.
  • a base 202 is sealed to the envelope 201.
  • the envelope 201 and the base 202 are sealed by a seal 400 of the "flesh-against-flesh" type. This seal 400 is performed at the second end.
  • the base 202 is made of a flexible material. This flexible material may for example be of the same nature as the material of the envelope 201 and preferably a flexible film monolayer or multilayer and preferably OPP / OPA / ALU / PE or OPP / metallized polyester / PE.
  • the present invention comprises a closure device 100.
  • This closure device 100 is sealed at the first end of the envelope 201, the one of smaller section.
  • the closure device 100 may, for example, comprise a sleeve 102.
  • the sleeve 102 is more rigid than the envelope 201.
  • This sleeve 102 may, according to one embodiment, have a thread 105 on its external face which is not in contact with the product contained in the bag 200. This thread 105 can be used to adapt an accessory 101 of the closure device 100.
  • the accessory 101 can be a plug (capsule, pump, etc.). .) or a support having silicone lips 104 having a lid 106 for example.
  • This device 1 thus produced has a very good stability in the vertical position, socket 102 upwards and therefore resting on the envelope / base 400 seal.
  • this seal 400 is a seal of the "flesh against flesh" type. This seal therefore has a greater rigidity since its thickness is the sum of that of the casing 201 and that of the base 202. This stability is acquired that the device 1 is full or empty or partly full.
  • This device 1 also has the advantage of a small footprint once empty, its pocket 200 being flexible. It is possible to compress the bag 200, open cap and keep this shape if the cap is closed before stopping the pressure stresses exerted on the bag 200.
  • the device 1 resumes its original shape allowing vertical retention sleeve 102 upwards.
  • the device 1 after the stop of the pressure stresses, and independently of the state of the plug, keeps its deformed shape. This has the advantage, for example, to preserve the product remained in the flexible pouch of any contact with the surrounding air.
  • the device 1 if the plug remains open after the cessation of the pressure stresses, the device 1 partially takes its original form.
  • the present invention has a deformable pocket 200 allows a better reproduction of the product contained therein.
  • the flexible bag 200 has an improved deformation capacity allowing its deformation to a hand for a user of standard force.
  • the base 202 of the present invention has any geometry, preferably polygonal, preferably polygonal with rounded corners, and preferably diamond-shaped with rounded corners.
  • the geometry of the base 202 is adapted to cooperate with the envelope 201 so that the latter matches the shape of the contour of the base 202.
  • the envelope 201 forms a channel said flow channel 500 which extends from the base 202 and towards the sleeve 102.
  • the flow channels 500 are thus formed inside the pocket 200 in the presence and / or in the absence of pressure exerted by a user of standard force.
  • the preferentially polygonal geometry with rounded angles makes it possible to form flow channels 500 which promote the aggregation of the product contained in the pocket 200 at the rounded corners in the absence and / or in the presence of external pressure.
  • These aggregates of material locally increase the value of the ratio mass of material to be extracted on the contact surface between the material to be extracted and the inner wall of the envelope 200. This increase promotes the descent of the material towards the outside of the pocket 200 In the absence of pressure exerted, and depending on the viscosity of the content under consideration, the gravity may be sufficient to achieve these aggregates of material and thus to promote their flow along these channels 500 flow.
  • the present invention has a ratio between the perimeter of the sleeve 102 and the perimeter of the base 202 may vary between 0.001 and 1, preferably between 0.2 and 0.7 and preferably between 0.4 and 0.5.
  • the present invention comprises a ratio between the height 401 of the envelope / base seal and the height 2 of the device may vary between 0.001 and 0.1, preferably between 0.001 and 0.05.
  • the present invention comprises a ratio between the height 301 of the envelope / sleeve seal and the height 2 of the device that can vary between 0.001 and 0.2, preferably between 0.1 and 0.15.
  • the solid angle thus formed by the flexible pouch 200 allows a good flow of the product contained in the flexible pouch 200.
  • the geometry of the base 202 associated with the envelope 201 to form the pocket 200 will allow the creation of flow channels 500 inside the device 1.
  • the diamond geometry rounded corners of the base 202 allows in the presence and / or absence of pressure exerted by a user of standard force on the pocket 200, socket 102 down and cover 106 removed, to lower the product contained in the pocket 200.
  • the geometry of the pocket 200 imposes preferred flow channels 500 thus making the easier flow.
  • these preferred flow channels 500 reduce the intensity of the pressure required to empty the product of the bag 200. The return of the product is thus facilitated.

  • the "skin against flesh” seal 205 of the envelope 201 is also deformed.
  • the figure 6 represents a deformation of the present device illustrating the ability of the entire pocket 200 to deform. This deformation typically results from compression exerted by the user with only one of these hands or with both hands.

  • the pocket 200 has an increased capacity of deformation which makes it possible to reduce the volume of the pocket 200 by at least one third, preferably by at least half and advantageously by more than half of its volume. volume when the device 1 is not deformed. This ability to reduce the volume of the bag 200 by exerting a pressure ensures a very good restitution of the product contained in the bag 200.
  • the bag 200 is configured so that these volume reductions are obtained by manual pressure exerted by the user using two and preferably using only one of his hands.
  • the casing 201 and the base 202 are sufficiently flexible so that under the effect of a manual pressure exerted on the casing 201, two points arranged symmetrically with respect to a longitudinal axis to the packaging are placed in touch. This allows for example to aggregate effectively distributed product on the internal surfaces of the envelope. When the surfaces come into contact, the product distributed on these surfaces is aggregated and it is then easier to lower it towards the closing device.

  • the envelope 201 and the base 202 are configured so that the envelope 201 and / or the base 202 can be twisted by at least 360 ° about an axis passing through the base 202 and the sleeve 102, under the effect of a manual action of the user. This structural configuration therefore allows a better return of the product, better handling and therefore increased deposit accuracy.
  • a particularly advantageous feature relates to the formation of flow channels 500 within the package 1 by the judicious choice of the geometry of the base 202.
  • the geometric shape of the base 202 is adapted to cooperate with the casing 201 so as to form flow channels 500.
  • the flow is towards the bottom of the package 1, there is aggregation of material at the level of the flow channels 500, the mass of material increases while the contact surface of the material with the inner walls of the packaging 1 remains the same, thus creating a local increase in the flow which is a function of the viscosity of the content.
  • the user can then exert pressure on the bag 200 so as to extract its contents if the opening at the sleeve 102 sealed is free.
  • the pressure exerted by the user brings the adjacent surfaces closer to the pocket 200.
  • This approximation of the adjacent surfaces allows local aggregation of the product. This allows a routing of the channels 500 much more pronounced under the effect of the deformation.
  • the aggregation of material increases and allows a better flow of the product, this accentuating the effect of 500 flow channels. This method then allows a better recovery especially for viscous fluids.
  • the use of a geometry of the base 202 of the diamond type with rounded corners as illustrated in FIG. figure 3 makes it possible to form flow channels 500 which are naturally located at the rounded corners. It should be noted that the position of these flow channels 500 is related to the stress on the packaging 1 of the present invention and the geometry of its base 202 and / or its envelope 201.
  • the general shape of the rhombus makes it possible, by pressing on two opposite angles and bringing them together, for example by exerting on them two opposing forces with the fingers of the same hand, to reduce the other two angles of the rhombus.
  • the surfaces adjacent to these two other angles then approach each other in pairs, or even until they come into contact. This effectively aggregates the product distributed on these surfaces.

  • a second particularly advantageous feature relates to the type of seal made at the level of the envelope 201.
  • a seal 205 of the "skin against flesh” type to form the casing 201 allows many advantages both functional and aesthetic.
  • This type of sealing compared to "skin-to-skin” or “flesh-to-skin” seals does not leave a fin on the inside or outside of the device.
  • the fins have many disadvantages, for example the outer fins from a "flesh-to-flesh” seal leave on the surface of the package a strip of protruding material and stiffer than the rest of the package. This strip of material is not pleasant when taken in hand. Moreover, it reduces the return of the product because it forms a rib opposing the deformation of the envelope.
  • the use of a "skin against flesh” seal does not form a fin, neither internal nor external.
  • the packaging 1 is much more homogeneous to the touch and the sight.
  • the "skin against flesh” seal ensures an improved deformation of the entire envelope 201 in comparison with other types of sealing which by the presence of fins, inevitably forming the ribs, decreases its amplitude of deformation.
  • the seal "skin against flesh” thus offers a greater amplitude of deformation and thus of compression, it shows an improvement in the return of the product, the handling of the packaging, the comfort of use and therefore the accuracy of deposit.
  • the invention is particularly advantageous for the agro-food sector with for example the use of chocolate paste as a substance to contain. It is also particularly advantageous for the industrial, cosmetic, domestic and health sectors.

  • the device 2000 manipulates the pattern of the envelope and closes it on itself to give it a trunk shape. This manipulator is able to cooperate with the sealing device 3000.
  • the device 3000 comprises a heating device adapted to come into contact with the inner face and the outer face of the envelope. At this stage of the process, the envelope is kept closed on itself forming a trunk. In this configuration the heating device performs a "skin against flesh" seal of the envelope. This sealing is performed in the longitudinal direction of the envelope. This sealing is performed along the entire length of the envelope in its longitudinal direction. This sealing thus forms the zone 205 illustrated in the preceding figures. This sealing is carried out over a width of the envelope of between 1 and 20 mm and preferably between 1 and 5 mm and advantageously equal to 5 mm.
