Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of envelopes. More particularly, the invention relates to the field of envelopes with a damping means, for sending via the postal services, fragile objects.
- damping means for limiting the impacts on the object contained in the envelope.
- damping means may in particular be a bubble film or a foam layer.
- a damping means with a thickness of less than 3 mm for example may be fixed, for example welded, on the film intended to form the envelope before folding thereof.
- a damping means with a thickness of less than 3 mm for example may be fixed, for example welded, on the film intended to form the envelope before folding thereof.
- thicker damping means these are generally slid into the envelope, after folding and shaping thereof.
- the envelopes with a specific damping means are usually sold individually because they are used only occasionally, especially by individuals. It therefore becomes necessary to prevent an involuntary withdrawal or not of the damping means before the purchase of the envelope by the customer.
- such envelopes may appear unsightly and / or too easily manipulated by anyone when exposed to racking before purchase, which can discourage the customer to buy a potentially incomplete product.
- the present invention aims to solve the various technical problems mentioned above.
- the present invention aims to provide an envelope to limit the risk of loss of independent damping means, while remaining easy to use for the user.
- the present invention also aims to provide an envelope with an improved appearance, and returning a quality image to the user who manipulates it.
- the envelope also comprises a holding means disposed on the protective film and configured to hold the flap in the closed position and allow to replace the flap in the open position before the use of the closure means.
- Non-reversible means a closure means holding the flap in the closed position and preventing its opening without damaging the envelope.
- the holding means is configured to maintain the flap in the closed position, while allowing to replace at least once the flap in the open position.
- the holding means therefore allows a reversible closure of the flap, which can be opened again, while the closure means allows to permanently close the flap.
- the envelope comprises two different and distinct means for keeping the flap in the closed position: firstly a holding means for reversibly closing the flap, and secondly a closure means for closing in a non-closed manner. -reversible flap.
- the inner face of the flap is in contact with the outer face of the rear layer when the flap is in the closed position.
- the holding means and / or the closure means may be arranged on the inside face of the flap and / or on the outer face of the rear layer.
- the holding means comprises an adhesive element having a low adhesion, particularly to the peel.
- an adhesive allows in particular to glue and peel off the flap several times on the outer face of the back layer, without damaging the envelope. We can keep the flap in the closed position, and allow the user to open the flap, before closing it permanently with the closing means.
- the closure means may be configured to hold the flap in the closed position by non-reversibly fastening the inner face of the flap to the outer face of the back layer.
- the closure means is an adhesive tape covered by a protective film.
- the closure means thus differs from the holding means by the type of adhesive used: the adhesive of the holding means has a lower adhesion than the adhesive of the closure means.
- the closure means may comprise a protective film covering the adhesive strip, while the holding means is directly exposed, that is to say unprotected, because repositionable by the user.
- the flap remains in the closed position after its manufacture, which allows, when the adhesive of the closure means comes to flow slightly beyond the protective film, to fix slightly the flap on the face external of the back layer of the envelope, and not on another envelope. We then facilitate the handling of envelopes before sale.
- the closure means comprises an adhesive tape covered by a protective film and the holding means can be arranged on the protective film.
- the holding means which is no longer useful, is removed at the same time as the protective film. This avoids extra thicknesses between the outer face of the back layer and the flap, and found a product identical to the current ones. It improves the quality felt by the user, with an envelope that, when permanently closed, is identical to other envelopes trade.
- the front layer and the rear layer are formed by folding a sheet along a longitudinal edge of the envelope different from the first longitudinal edge, for example by folding along a second longitudinal edge parallel to the first longitudinal edge.
- Such a structure allows easy manufacture of the envelope and its compartment, thanks to the use of a single sheet which only has to be welded along two opposite edges, to form the envelope and its compartment.
- the casing also comprises a damping means disposed in the compartment prior to closing the compartment by the holding means.
- the damping means may in particular be independent of the front and rear layers of the envelope, without it being necessary to provide a specific attachment in the envelope.
- the damping means may comprise a foam having a thickness greater than or equal to 5 mm. Such a thickness of foam is generally difficult to attach to the film of the envelope, prior to folding. It is then easier to manufacture the compartment of the envelope and the damping means separately and separately, and then to place the damping means in the compartment of the envelope.
- the envelope according to the invention allows, thanks to the holding means, to maintain the damping means in the compartment of the envelope until it is not closed permanently. In addition, the purchase by the user of an envelope with a closed appearance, reassures the latter that the envelope is complete, with its damping means.
- the figures 1 and 2 illustrate an exemplary embodiment of an envelope 1 according to the present invention.
- the envelope 1 comprises a front layer 2 and a rear layer 4 which define a compartment 6, and a flap 8 for closing the envelope 1 by closing the compartment 6.
- the envelope 1 has a generally rectangular shape with an opening 10 along one side of the envelope. More specifically, the envelope 1 comprises a first longitudinal edge 12 at which the opening 10 of the compartment 6 of the casing 1 is located .
- the casing 1 also comprises a second longitudinal edge 14 opposite the first longitudinal edge 12 and substantially parallel to the first longitudinal edge 12, and two side edges 16, 18 connecting the two longitudinal edges 12, 14 between them.
- the flap 8 is in particular arranged along the first longitudinal edge 12 of the envelope 1, for example in the extension of the front layer 2.
- the flap 8 has on the one hand an open position in which the opening 10 of the compartment 6 is accessible, for example thanks to a fold at the first longitudinal edge 12 forming almost a flat angle , and on the other hand a closed position in which the flap 8 closes at least partly the opening 10, for example by contact between the flap 8 and the rear layer 4.
- the front and rear layers 2, 4 may be made of polyethylene, for example of coextruded polyethylene.
- the thickness of the front and rear layers may be chosen between 40 and 80 ⁇ m, for example 60 ⁇ m, in order to guarantee the rigidity of the envelope, particularly during its routing.
- the front layer 2 comprises an outer face 2a and an inner face 2b.
- the back layer 4 comprises an outer face 4a and an inner face 4b.
- the flap 8 comprises an outer face 8a and an inner face 8b.
- the front layer 2 comprises a first end 2c located along the first longitudinal edge 12 of the casing, and a second end 2d located along the second longitudinal edge 14 of the casing.
- the back layer 4 comprises a first end 4c and a second end 4d.
- the first end 2c of the front layer 2 is disposed along the flap 8.
- the outer layers 2, 4 are formed by folding a single sheet.
- the two sheets are folded along the second longitudinal edge 14 of the envelope 1.
- the outer layers 2, 4 are assembled together by means of two welds 20, 22 made along the lateral edges 16, 18 of the envelope 1.
- the flap 8 can also be formed by the same sheet, folding the sheet along the second longitudinal edge 14 asymmetrically so that the front portion is longer than the rear portion: the difference in length can then be used to forming the flap 8, for example by folding along the first longitudinal edge 12.
- the two layers 2 and 4 may each be formed by a sheet.
- the sheets are assembled in pairs, along the second longitudinal edge 14 and along the side edges 16, 18, for example by welding, to form the compartment 6.
- the flap 8 can be formed in the extension of the front layer 2. It is sufficient, in particular, to provide the sheet intended to form the front part with a length greater than that intended to form the rear part: the difference in length can then be used to form the flap 8, for example by folding along the first longitudinal edge 12.
- a fold along the first longitudinal edge 12 facilitates the folding of the flap 8 on the rear layer 4 during the closure of the envelope 1.
- the flap 8 comprises, on its inner face 8b, a closure means 24 made in the form of an adhesive strip 26 covered by a protective film 28.
- the adhesive strip 26 may be formed by hot-melt glue and the protective film 28 can be formed by a polyethylene film, having a thickness of 40 .mu.m, for example.
- the adhesive strip 26 is chosen so as to bond non-reversibly to the outer face 4a of the rear layer 4 : thus, detachment of the flap 8 can only be possible with degradation of the envelope, for example the flap or the back layer.
- the closure means 24 is thus a definitive closure means which is not repositionable when it has been fixed a first time on the external face of the rear layer 4.
- the holding means 30 keeps the flap 8 in the closed position before the casing 1 is used. It allows in particular to keep in the compartment 6 the elements placed inside and sold at the same time as the envelope 1, for example a damping means 32. It also allows to obtain a better aesthetic appearance.
- the holding means 30 is therefore a different means of the closure means 24. Unlike the closure means 24, the holding means 30 makes it possible to pass the flap 8 at least once from the closed position to the open position, without damaging the 1.
- the holding means 30 is configured to reversibly close the casing 1, while the closing means 24 is configured to non-reversibly close the casing 1.
- the holding means 30 may for example be a repositionable adhesive element, such as an adhesive element having a low adhesion, particularly to peeling. It is therefore understood that the adhesive of the holding means is different from that 26 of the closing means 24: the adhesive holding means has a lower adhesion than that of the closing means 24.
- the holding means 30 may be disposed on the exposed face of the protective film 28. In this case, upon removal of the protective film 28 to non-reversibly close the envelope, the holding means 30, which is no longer useful, is also removed.
- the damping means 32 of the envelope 1 described above may comprise foam, for example with a thickness greater than or equal to 5 mm, which is freely disposed in the compartment 6.
- An envelope comprising, on the one hand, a means for closing the flap and, on the other hand, a means for holding the flap.
- the holding means is different from the closing means, and does not have the same adhesion as the closure means, to allow at least once opening of the flap from the closed position to the open position before use of the closure means .

Description
La présente invention concerne le domaine des enveloppes. Plus particulièrement, l'invention concerne le domaine des enveloppes avec un moyen d'amortissement, permettant d'expédier via les services postaux, des objets fragiles.The present invention relates to the field of envelopes. More particularly, the invention relates to the field of envelopes with a damping means, for sending via the postal services, fragile objects.
Il est connu de prévoir dans des enveloppes standards, un moyen d'amortissement permettant de limiter les impacts subis par l'objet contenu dans l'enveloppe. De tels moyens d'amortissement peuvent notamment être un film à bulles ou une couche de mousse. Par ailleurs, plus l'épaisseur du moyen d'amortissement est élevée, plus celui-ci sera efficace pour absorber les chocs subis par l'enveloppe, et donc pour amortir ceux-ci avant qu'ils n'abîment l'objet contenu dans l'enveloppe.It is known to provide in standard envelopes, a damping means for limiting the impacts on the object contained in the envelope. Such damping means may in particular be a bubble film or a foam layer. Moreover, the greater the thickness of the damping means is, the more it will be effective to absorb shocks to the envelope, and thus to dampen them before they damage the object contained in the envelope.
Toutefois, plus le moyen d'amortissement est épais, plus il est difficile de l'insérer directement dans l'enveloppe. Ainsi, un moyen d'amortissement d'épaisseur inférieur à 3 mm par exemple peut être fixé, par exemple soudé, sur le film destiné à former l'enveloppe avant pliage de celui-ci. Par contre, pour des moyens d'amortissement plus épais, ceux-ci sont généralement glissés dans l'enveloppe, après pliage et mise en forme de celle-ci.However, the thicker the damping means, the more difficult it is to insert it directly into the envelope. Thus, a damping means with a thickness of less than 3 mm for example may be fixed, for example welded, on the film intended to form the envelope before folding thereof. On the other hand, for thicker damping means, these are generally slid into the envelope, after folding and shaping thereof.
Or, les enveloppes avec un moyen d'amortissement spécifique, sont généralement vendues à l'unité car ne sont utilisées que ponctuellement, notamment par les particuliers. Il devient donc nécessaire d'empêcher un retrait involontaire ou non du moyen d'amortissement avant l'achat de l'enveloppe par le client. De même, de telles enveloppes peuvent paraître inesthétiques et/ou trop facilement manipulables par quiconque lorsqu'elles sont exposées en rayonnage avant achat, ce qui peut décourager le client à acheter un produit potentiellement incomplet.However, the envelopes with a specific damping means, are usually sold individually because they are used only occasionally, especially by individuals. It therefore becomes necessary to prevent an involuntary withdrawal or not of the damping means before the purchase of the envelope by the customer. Similarly, such envelopes may appear unsightly and / or too easily manipulated by anyone when exposed to racking before purchase, which can discourage the customer to buy a potentially incomplete product.
Il existe également des enveloppes permettant de maintenir provisoirement le rabat en position fermée. De telles enveloppes sont notamment décrites dans les documents
La présente invention vise à résoudre les différents problèmes techniques énoncés précédemment. En particulier, la présente invention vise à proposer une enveloppe permettant de limiter les risques de perte d'un moyen d'amortissement indépendant, tout en restant facile d'utilisation pour l'utilisateur. La présente invention vise également à proposer une enveloppe avec une apparence améliorée, et renvoyant une image de qualité à l'utilisateur qui la manipule.The present invention aims to solve the various technical problems mentioned above. In particular, the present invention aims to provide an envelope to limit the risk of loss of independent damping means, while remaining easy to use for the user. The present invention also aims to provide an envelope with an improved appearance, and returning a quality image to the user who manipulates it.
Ainsi, selon un aspect, il est proposé une enveloppe comprenant :
- une couche avant et une couche arrière, assemblées de manière à former un compartiment présentant une ouverture selon un premier bord longitudinal de l'enveloppe,
- un rabat, disposé le long dudit premier bord longitudinal de l'enveloppe et présentant une position ouverte dans laquelle le compartiment est accessible via son ouverture, et une position fermée dans laquelle le rabat recouvre au moins en partie l'ouverture du compartiment, et
- un moyen de fermeture réalisé par une bande adhésive recouverte par un film protecteur et configuré pour maintenir de manière non-réversible le rabat en position fermée.
- a front layer and a back layer, assembled to form a compartment having an opening along a first longitudinal edge of the envelope,
- a flap, disposed along said first longitudinal edge of the envelope and having an open position in which the compartment is accessible via its opening, and a closed position in which the flap covers at least part of the opening of the compartment, and
- closure means provided by an adhesive tape covered by a protective film and configured to non-reversibly hold the flap in the closed position.
L'enveloppe comporte également un moyen de maintien disposé sur le film protecteur et configuré pour maintenir le rabat en position fermée et permettre de replacer le rabat en position ouverte avant l'utilisation du moyen de fermeture.The envelope also comprises a holding means disposed on the protective film and configured to hold the flap in the closed position and allow to replace the flap in the open position before the use of the closure means.
On entend par « non-réversible » un moyen de fermeture maintenant le rabat en position fermée et empêchant son ouverture sans endommager l'enveloppe."Non-reversible" means a closure means holding the flap in the closed position and preventing its opening without damaging the envelope.
A l'inverse, le moyen de maintien est configuré pour maintenir le rabat en position fermée, tout en permettant de replacer au moins une fois le rabat en position ouverte. Le moyen de maintien permet donc une fermeture réversible du rabat, qui peut à nouveau être ouvert, tandis que le moyen de fermeture permet de fermer définitivement le rabat.Conversely, the holding means is configured to maintain the flap in the closed position, while allowing to replace at least once the flap in the open position. The holding means therefore allows a reversible closure of the flap, which can be opened again, while the closure means allows to permanently close the flap.
En résumé, l'enveloppe comporte deux moyens différents et distincts pour garder le rabat en position fermée : d'une part un moyen de maintien permettant de fermer réversiblement le rabat, et d'autre part un moyen de fermeture permettant de fermer de manière non-réversible le rabat.In summary, the envelope comprises two different and distinct means for keeping the flap in the closed position: firstly a holding means for reversibly closing the flap, and secondly a closure means for closing in a non-closed manner. -reversible flap.
Grâce au moyen de maintien, il est possible de maintenir le rabat de l'enveloppe en position fermée de manière temporaire, jusqu'à son utilisation finale. L'utilisateur peut facilement replacer le rabat en position ouverte pour positionner le contenu à envoyer dans le compartiment de l'enveloppe, puis refermer définitivement le rabat avec le moyen de fermeture. On obtient ainsi une enveloppe qui peut être vendue avec le rabat en position fermée, ce qui confère au produit d'une part un aspect plus esthétique, grâce à des contours uniformes pour tous les produits et un rabat systématiquement en position fermée, et d'autre part un aspect rassurant pour l'utilisateur qui va considérer que l'enveloppe est complète puisque le rabat est en position fermée.With the holding means, it is possible to maintain the flap of the envelope in the closed position temporarily, until its final use. The user can easily return the flap to the open position to position the contents to be sent into the compartment of the envelope, then close the flap permanently with the closure means. This gives an envelope that can be sold with the flap in the closed position, which gives the product on the one hand a more aesthetic appearance, thanks to uniform contours for all products and a fold systematically closed position, and on the other hand a reassuring aspect for the user who will consider that the envelope is complete since the flap is in the closed position.
Dans l'enveloppe, la couche avant peut présenter une face interne et une face externe ; la couche arrière peut présenter une face interne et une face externe ; et le rabat peut présenter une face interne et une face externe.In the envelope, the front layer may have an inner face and an outer face; the back layer may have an inner face and an outer face; and the flap may have an inner face and an outer face.
Préférentiellement, la face interne du rabat est en contact avec la face externe de la couche arrière lorsque le rabat est en position fermée.Preferably, the inner face of the flap is in contact with the outer face of the rear layer when the flap is in the closed position.
Le moyen de maintien et/ou le moyen de fermeture peut être disposé sur la face interne du rabat et/ou sur la face externe de la couche arrière.The holding means and / or the closure means may be arranged on the inside face of the flap and / or on the outer face of the rear layer.
Préférentiellement, le moyen de maintien comporte un élément adhésif présentant une faible adhésion, notamment au pelage. Un tel adhésif permet notamment de coller et décoller plusieurs fois le rabat sur la face externe de la couche arrière, sans endommager l'enveloppe. On peut donc maintenir le rabat en position fermée, et laisser la possibilité à l'utilisateur d'ouvrir le rabat, avant de le refermer définitivement avec le moyen de fermeture.Preferably, the holding means comprises an adhesive element having a low adhesion, particularly to the peel. Such an adhesive allows in particular to glue and peel off the flap several times on the outer face of the back layer, without damaging the envelope. We can keep the flap in the closed position, and allow the user to open the flap, before closing it permanently with the closing means.
Le moyen de fermeture peut être configuré pour maintenir le rabat en position fermée par fixation non-réversible de la face interne du rabat sur la face externe de la couche arrière. Le moyen de fermeture est une bande adhésive recouverte par un film protecteur.The closure means may be configured to hold the flap in the closed position by non-reversibly fastening the inner face of the flap to the outer face of the back layer. The closure means is an adhesive tape covered by a protective film.
Le moyen de fermeture se distingue ainsi du moyen de maintien par le type d'adhésif utilisé : l'adhésif du moyen de maintien présente une adhésion plus faible que l'adhésif du moyen de fermeture. D'ailleurs, le moyen de fermeture peut comprendre un film protecteur recouvrant la bande adhésive, tandis que le moyen de maintien est directement exposé, c'est-à-dire non-protégé, car repositionnable par l'utilisateur.The closure means thus differs from the holding means by the type of adhesive used: the adhesive of the holding means has a lower adhesion than the adhesive of the closure means. Moreover, the closure means may comprise a protective film covering the adhesive strip, while the holding means is directly exposed, that is to say unprotected, because repositionable by the user.
Par ailleurs, grâce au moyen de maintien, le rabat reste en position fermée après sa fabrication, ce qui permet, lorsque l'adhésif du moyen de fermeture vient à couler légèrement au-delà du film protecteur, de fixer légèrement le rabat sur la face externe de la couche arrière de l'enveloppe, et non sur une autre enveloppe. On facilite alors la manutention des enveloppes avant leur vente.Moreover, thanks to the holding means, the flap remains in the closed position after its manufacture, which allows, when the adhesive of the closure means comes to flow slightly beyond the protective film, to fix slightly the flap on the face external of the back layer of the envelope, and not on another envelope. We then facilitate the handling of envelopes before sale.
Selon l'invention, le moyen de fermeture comporte une bande adhésive recouverte par un film protecteur et le moyen de maintien peut être disposé sur le film protecteur. Lors de la fermeture définitive de l'enveloppe, le moyen de maintien, qui n'a plus d'utilité, est retiré en même temps que le film protecteur. On évite ainsi des surépaisseurs entre la face externe de la couche arrière et le rabat, et on retrouve un produit identique à ceux actuels. On améliore donc la qualité ressentie par l'utilisateur, avec une enveloppe qui, lorsqu'elle est définitivement fermée, est identique aux autres enveloppes du commerce.According to the invention, the closure means comprises an adhesive tape covered by a protective film and the holding means can be arranged on the protective film. During the final closure of the envelope, the holding means, which is no longer useful, is removed at the same time as the protective film. This avoids extra thicknesses between the outer face of the back layer and the flap, and found a product identical to the current ones. It improves the quality felt by the user, with an envelope that, when permanently closed, is identical to other envelopes trade.
Préférentiellement, la couche avant et la couche arrière sont formées par pliage d'une feuille selon un bord longitudinal de l'enveloppe différent du premier bord longitudinal, par exemple par pliage selon un deuxième bord longitudinal parallèle au premier bord longitudinal. Une telle structure permet une fabrication aisée de l'enveloppe et de son compartiment, grâce à l'utilisation d'une feuille unique qui n'a plus qu'à être soudée selon deux bords opposés, pour former l'enveloppe et son compartiment.Preferably, the front layer and the rear layer are formed by folding a sheet along a longitudinal edge of the envelope different from the first longitudinal edge, for example by folding along a second longitudinal edge parallel to the first longitudinal edge. Such a structure allows easy manufacture of the envelope and its compartment, thanks to the use of a single sheet which only has to be welded along two opposite edges, to form the envelope and its compartment.
Préférentiellement, l'enveloppe comporte également un moyen d'amortissement disposé dans le compartiment préalablement à la fermeture du compartiment par le moyen de maintien. Le moyen d'amortissement peut notamment être indépendant des couches avant et arrière de l'enveloppe, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de prévoir une fixation spécifique dans l'enveloppe.Preferably, the casing also comprises a damping means disposed in the compartment prior to closing the compartment by the holding means. The damping means may in particular be independent of the front and rear layers of the envelope, without it being necessary to provide a specific attachment in the envelope.
Le moyen d'amortissement peut comporter une mousse présentant une épaisseur supérieure ou égale à 5mm. Une telle épaisseur de mousse est généralement délicate à fixer au film de l'enveloppe, préalablement au pliage. Il est alors plus aisé de fabriquer le compartiment de l'enveloppe et le moyen d'amortissement de manière distincte et séparée, puis de placer le moyen d'amortissement dans le compartiment de l'enveloppe. L'enveloppe selon l'invention permet notamment, grâce au moyen de maintien, de maintenir le moyen d'amortissement dans le compartiment de l'enveloppe tant que celle-ci n'est pas fermée définitivement. De plus, l'achat par l'utilisateur d'une enveloppe à l'aspect fermé, rassure ce dernier sur le fait que l'enveloppe est complète, avec son moyen d'amortissement.The damping means may comprise a foam having a thickness greater than or equal to 5 mm. Such a thickness of foam is generally difficult to attach to the film of the envelope, prior to folding. It is then easier to manufacture the compartment of the envelope and the damping means separately and separately, and then to place the damping means in the compartment of the envelope. The envelope according to the invention allows, thanks to the holding means, to maintain the damping means in the compartment of the envelope until it is not closed permanently. In addition, the purchase by the user of an envelope with a closed appearance, reassures the latter that the envelope is complete, with its damping means.

Le rabat 8 peut également être formé par la même feuille, en pliant la feuille selon le deuxième bord longitudinal 14 de manière asymétrique afin que la partie avant soit plus longue que la partie arrière : la différence de longueur peut alors être utilisée pour former le rabat 8, par exemple par pliure selon le premier bord longitudinal 12. In the particular embodiment illustrated in the figures, the
Selon une variante, les deux couches 2 et 4 peuvent être formées chacune par une feuille. Dans ce cas, les feuilles sont assemblées deux à deux, le long du deuxième bord longitudinal 14 et le long des bords latéraux 16, 18, par exemple par des soudures, pour former le compartiment 6. Ici encore, le rabat 8 peut être formé dans le prolongement de la couche avant 2. Il suffit notamment de prévoir la feuille destinée à former la partie avant avec une longueur plus grande que celle destinée à former la partie arrière : la différence de longueur peut alors être utilisée pour former le rabat 8, par exemple par pliure selon le premier bord longitudinal 12. According to one variant, the two
Dans les deux cas, une pliure selon le premier bord longitudinal 12 permet de faciliter le repli du rabat 8 sur la couche arrière 4 lors de la fermeture de l'enveloppe 1. In both cases, a fold along the first
Le rabat 8 comprend, sur sa face interne 8b, un moyen de fermeture 24 réalisé sous la forme d'une bande adhésive 26 recouverte par un film protecteur 28. La bande adhésive 26 peut être formée par de la colle thermofusible et le film protecteur 28 peut être formé par un film de polyéthylène, présentant une épaisseur de 40µm, par exemple. En particulier, la bande adhésive 26 est choisie de manière à coller de manière non-réversible sur la face externe 4a de la couche arrière 4 : ainsi, un décollement du rabat 8 ne pourra être possible qu'avec une dégradation de l'enveloppe, par exemple du rabat ou de la couche arrière. Le moyen de fermeture 24 est donc un moyen de fermeture définitif qui n'est pas repositionnable lorsqu'il a été fixé une première fois sur la face externe de la couche arrière 4. The
Par ailleurs, afin de permettre une fermeture temporaire de l'enveloppe 1, celle-ci comporte également un moyen de maintien 30. Le moyen de maintien 30 permet de maintenir le rabat 8 en position fermée avant que l'enveloppe 1 ne soit utilisée. Il permet notamment de garder dans le compartiment 6 les éléments placés à l'intérieur et vendus en même temps que l'enveloppe 1, par exemple un moyen d'amortissement 32. Il permet également d'obtenir un meilleur aspect esthétique.Furthermore, to allow a temporary closure of the
Le moyen de maintien 30 est donc un moyen différent du moyen de fermeture 24. Contrairement au moyen de fermeture 24, le moyen de maintien 30 permet de passer le rabat 8 au moins une fois de la position fermée à la position ouverte, sans endommager l'enveloppe 1. Le moyen de maintien 30 est configuré pour fermer réversiblement l'enveloppe 1, tandis que le moyen de fermeture 24 est configuré pour fermer non-réversiblement l'enveloppe 1. The holding means 30 is therefore a different means of the closure means 24. Unlike the closure means 24, the holding means 30 makes it possible to pass the
Le moyen de maintien 30 peut par exemple être un élément adhésif repositionnable, tel un élément adhésif présentant une faible adhésion notamment au pelage. On comprend donc que l'adhésif du moyen de maintien est différent de celui 26 du moyen de fermeture 24 : l'adhésif du moyen de maintien présente une adhésion plus faible que celle du moyen de fermeture 24. The holding means 30 may for example be a repositionable adhesive element, such as an adhesive element having a low adhesion, particularly to peeling. It is therefore understood that the adhesive of the holding means is different from that 26 of the closing means 24: the adhesive holding means has a lower adhesion than that of the closing means 24.
Comme illustré sur les
Grâce à l'enveloppe 1 selon l'invention, on peut ainsi s'assurer que le moyen d'amortissement 32, ou tout autre élément positionné dans le compartiment 6, ne glissera pas par l'ouverture. En particulier, le moyen d'amortissement 32 de l'enveloppe 1 décrite précédemment peut comprendre de la mousse, par exemple avec une épaisseur supérieure ou égale à 5mm, qui est disposée librement dans le compartiment 6. Thanks to the
On obtient donc une enveloppe comportant d'une part un moyen de fermeture du rabat, et d'autre part un moyen de maintien du rabat. Le moyen de maintien est différent du moyen de fermeture, et ne présente pas la même adhésion que le moyen de fermeture, afin de permettre au moins une fois l'ouverture du rabat de la position fermée à la position ouverte avant utilisation du moyen de fermeture.An envelope is thus obtained comprising, on the one hand, a means for closing the flap and, on the other hand, a means for holding the flap. The holding means is different from the closing means, and does not have the same adhesion as the closure means, to allow at least once opening of the flap from the closed position to the open position before use of the closure means .
