Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of presentation and/or communication labeling devices, in particular labeling devices for bottles, more particularly bottles used in the wine and spirits industry.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a labeling device for bottles, making it possible to overcome at least some of the above drawbacks of the prior art.
  • bottle any container generally suitable for receiving a liquid, regardless of its size and shape, preferably with a neck of smaller size than the rest of the bottle. Preference will be given, without being restrictive, to bottles of consumable liquids, in particular spirits, wines and perfume bottles.
  • the device is particularly suitable without being limited thereto to bottles whose general shape is conical, that is to say that the general shape of the bottle gradually widens over a substantial part of its height from the neck. thus allowing the spiral to marry the external shape of the bottle.
  • said device is made of plastic, paper, cardboard, cellulose, vegetable and/or synthetic fiber, or a mixture thereof.
  • said device comprises at least on one of its faces at least one visual item of information.
  • said device comprises at least one portion having absorbent properties, preferably in its central part.
  • said device comprises at least on one of its faces at least one groove.
  • Another object of this is the use of the device as a communication medium.
  • Another object of the present invention is the use of the device as coasters for glasses or bottles.
  • Another object of this is the use of the device as an anti-drip for bottles.
  • the strip is made by cutting out a support by means of cutting, stamping or punching.
  • the strip is made by molding material.
  • the picture 1a illustrates a preferred but non-limiting embodiment of certain embodiments of the present invention, in which the device (1) is in the general form of a disk when the latter is not placed on a bottle (2 ).
  • the figure 1b illustrates a preferred but non-limiting embodiment of the present invention in which the device (1) is deployed and is in the form of a serpentine around a bottle (2).
  • Such a device (1) makes it possible to dispense with the cellophane or silk papers of the prior art often used to embellish a bottle.
  • the device according to the invention can be applied directly to a bottle (2) on the shelf, thus making it possible to make the bottle more visible and to save time at the checkout, by dispensing with the packaging step.
  • the method of manufacturing the device (1) according to the invention consists in producing it in a support.
  • Said support is made of a material allowing deformations, a spiral cut so as to obtain a strip (11) only when opposing forces are applied to the edge and to the central part of the support (10), or thanks to the gravitational force, when the device is placed in its center at the top of the bottle, said support unfolds like a "serpentine", substantially matching the shapes of the outer wall of the bottle. In the absence of said opposing forces, the support returns to a substantially planar configuration.
  • Such cutting can be done by means of cutting, stamping or punching.
  • Such materials are generally used in the form of sheets, ie having large surfaces and a small thickness, less than 5 mm, preferably less than 2 mm, advantageously less than 1 mm.
  • Such materials can be paper, cardboard, plastic, cellulose, fibers of synthetic or vegetable origin, or a mixture of these, for example in the form of a multi-layered assembly.
  • said material can receive on part or all of its surface, various surface treatments, in particular a surface treatment making it hydrophobic, odorous, phosphorescent, etc.
  • a material with absorbent properties will often be preferred, in particular in order to make the smell last over time or to absorb drops of liquid.
  • the fragrant embodiment is of particular interest when the device is used to embellish perfume bottles.
  • spiral used is not restricted. Indeed, the person skilled in the art will choose the spiral according to the design of the bottle but also according to the decorative criteria chosen and the appearance that he wishes to obtain. Thus, for example, when a bottle has a square section, he will choose a spiral from Ulan. Similarly when the section is triangular, the advantageously chosen spiral will repeat a triangular pattern.
  • the pattern presented above is thus repeated as many times as necessary so that one of the semi-circles matches the shape of the bottle as far as its lower end.
  • the semicircles (DC, DC 2 , DC 4 , DC 6 , DC 8 , DC 10 ) have the same center (C) and radii which grow as they approach the edge of the support.
  • the semi-circles (DC 1 , DC 3 , DC 5 , DC 7 , DC 9 ) increase in size as they approach the edge of the support and the respective center of each semi-circle (DC 1 , DC 3 , DC 5 , DC 7 , DC 9 ) is shifted, if necessary, so that the semi-circles (DC, DC 1 , DC 2 , DC 3 , DC 4 , DC 5 , DC 6 , DC 7 , DC 8 , DC 9 , DC 10 ) are placed end to end, in order to form the spiral.
  • This type of construction has the advantage of having a relatively asymmetrical shape facilitating the deployment of the device (1) in a "serpentine" around the bottle (2) thus making visible the
  • the dimensions of the spiral are chosen according to the profile of the bottle so that a cooperation of shapes is created between the spiral cutout and the profile of the bottle. This cooperation of shapes facilitates the action of said opposing forces which are necessary for deploying and maintaining the device on the bottle in its “coil” shape.
  • it is the force of gravity which allows the deployment of the device (1) according to the invention in a "coil” and its maintenance in this form on the bottle (2).
  • This deployment is due to the rigidity of the material which is chosen according to its weight and the length of the strip (11) forming the "coil".
  • the semi-circles DC, DC 2 , DC 4 , DC 6 , DC 8 and DC 10 with center C have a radius of 13.5mm, 19mm, 31mm, 43mm, 58.5mm and 74mm respectively.
  • the semicircles DC 1 DC 3 , DC 5 , DC 7 and DC 9 respectively with centers C 1 , C 2 , C 2 , C 3 , and C 3 respectively have a radius of 16mm, 25mm, 37mm, 51mm and 66mm.
  • the segments [CC 1 ], [CC 2 ] and [CC 3 ] are respectively 3mm, 6mm, and 7.5mm.
  • the semi-circles DC, DC 2 , DC 4 , DC 6 , DC 8 , DC 10 and DC 12 with center C respectively have a radius 10mm, 15mm, 23.5mm, 31.5mm, 41.5mm, 52.5mm and 67.5mm.
  • the semicircles DC 1 DC 3 , DC 5 , DC 7 DC 9 and DC 11 respectively with centers C 1 , C 2 , C 2 , C 3 , C 3 and C 4 have respectively a radius of 12.5mm, 19.5mm, 27.5mm, 37mm, 47.5mm, and 60.5mm.
  • the segments [CC 1 ], [CC 2 ] [CC 3 ] and [CC 4 ] are respectively 2.5mm, 4mm, 5mm and 8mm.
  • the device according to the invention can very well be adapted to large volume containers such as magnums, jeroboams or Methuselahs, and even Nebuchadnezzars, but also for half or quarter bottles, mignonettes or flasks of perfume of various sizes and shapes. Said adaptation can be done in two ways. A first mode which consists in adding or removing semi-circles. A second mode which consists in modifying the dimensions (radii) of the semi-circles present initially. Of course, the person skilled in the art can very well combine the two modes to adapt the device to the dimensions of the bottle to be embellished or labelled.
  • the last turn that is to say the outermost turn of the device, has a cutout (12), for example giving the device the general shape of a snail shell or at least is refined at the extreme end of the device.
  • the cut is preferably on the outside, so that the strip (11) maximizes its contact surface with the bottle.
  • the device may have in the vicinity of the cutout (12) or the end of the spiral, an extra thickness or an addition of material or an extra weight facilitating the deployment and the maintenance of the spiral by gravity when the device is fitted onto the bottle.
  • the first semicircle DC with center C can be more than a semicircle.
  • the DC arc can be greater than a semicircle and strictly less than a circle.
  • the arc of a circle DC extends over an angular sector greater than 180° and less than 360°.
  • the arc DC retains an uncut portion which makes it possible to retain a central sticker (10), useful for labeling/displaying information.
  • the DC arc extends over 360° and therefore forms a circle, the cutting of which removes the badge (10). A labeling device is then obtained which matches the shape of the bottle even in its upper part and allows information to be displayed only on the strip portion (11) taking the form of a "serpentine".
  • the arc of a circle DC 1 has as its starting point a point of the circle DC.
  • the device when the device is on the uncorked bottle, it can serve as an anti-drip.
  • the device (1) is not fixed to the bottle (2) that it labels, in particular to advantageously allow its use on other bottles, thus avoiding throwing it away and allowing their use for other purposes.
  • the device when the device is in its planar form, it can very well be used as a coaster.
  • at least one surface of the device may have grooves in order to limit the suction cup effect generally associated with coasters.
  • a shape cooperation between the different turns can be implemented, in order to maintain the device in a flat shape when it is used as a coaster, i.e. to say that the turns cooperate with each other in order to remain in the same plane.
  • the turns are force-fitted into each other.
  • shape cooperation can be done, for example, by means of at least one particular cutout of the spiral, for example notches, or points or any projections present on a turn and cooperating with a cutout complementary on another turn.
  • the embellishment/labeling device can also be an information carrier, in particular visual information on at least one of its surfaces.
  • the information can be written on the central part delimited by at least the semi-circle DC, forming a kind of sticker (10) and in certain embodiments the information can be located on the spiral and/or the part central.
