Definitions

  • the present patent of invention pertains to a packaging for storing automotive parts, in particular brake pads or any other parts having similar formats for automotive vehicles, said packaging being made of thermoplastic material, the main objective of which is to provide a sealing system suitable for preventing the entry of humidity and liquids into the packaging. Additionally, said packaging comprises its own specific characteristics, which besides providing effective sealing, presents a structure with better mechanical resistance for housing the parts, and also for promoting safe and practical stacking. Further, advantageously, the constructive shape of the packaging now innovated, allows the lid to be opened and closed several times without compromising its integrity.
  • a person skilled in the art has knowledge of packaging used to store automotive parts, chiefly to protect it against external agents or contact with other objects, and to facilitate the transport and handling thereof, since these automotive components are made of high density materials, resulting in heavy parts which exert a major force against the walls of their packaging, which should offer sufficient mechanical resistance for the safe transport and stacking thereof.
  • a known form of packing these automotive parts is the use of cardboard packaging, where the parts are packed in loose form. Viewing greater protection, in some cases the parts are previously enveloped with shrinkable material, plastic films, foam, among others, before being packed in the cardboard packaging.
  • said packaging is made of a hydrophilic material, exposing the parts to humidity, since when cardboard absorbs humidity, this humidity is consequently transferred to the part, causing damage.
  • said packaging offers no structural resistance to stacking, generating logistical and storage difficulties in the inventory of wrapped parts, and said parts may be damaged when stacked or during transport.
  • this packaging undergoes during transport, open spending months inside containers on ships crossing oceans, this packaging needs more effective sealing capable of preventing the entry of humidity, or even liquids. Therefore, disadvantageously, this humidity can end up damaging the parts stored in this packaging.
  • the oxidation factor which in many cases may reach a level of premature rooting, that is, before assembly and use, the parts may be oxidized due to the entry of humidity inside the packaging, which reduces their useful life, any may require repair soon after using the vehicles due to functional problems.
  • the factor may worsen, depending on the environmental conditions and transport time, when exported by sea routes, which due to the high rate of salt-water mist causes corrosion of various metal objects.
  • the present invention proposes a packaging for storing automotive parts made of thermoplastic material, which comprises a receptacle closed by a lid, and said packaging comprises a closing and sealing system capable of promoting effective sealing, preventing humidity from penetrating the packaging and damaging the stored part(s). Further the invention proposes a packaging with its own specific characteristics, which besides providing effective sealing, presents a structural body having better mechanical resistance for housing the parts, and also for promoting safe and practical stacking.
  • Another objective of the present invention is to provide a packaging with a suitable arrangement such that when stacking the packgings, an upper packaging may be encased into a lower packaging so as to guarantee greater stability for the pile, besides sustaining the mechanical efforts involved.
  • the present invention pertains to a packaging that comprises a closing and sealing means arranged by the cooperating encasement of a perimeter edge, disposed on a wall of a receptacle and encasable in a perimeter channel disposed in the internal region of the lid and endowed with closing and sealing segments which project downwardly so as to receive the perimeter edge when the lid is closed.
  • the lid comprises at least an articulated flap by means of a folding line, and said articulated flap projects downwardly and comprises an internal region endowed with at least a locking protrusion of the lid on the receptacle, which also comprises at least a protrusion disposed on the wall which when encased cooperatingly with the protrusion promotes locking by mechanical interference.
  • the packaging comprises a stacking means arranged by the cooperating encasement of a lower ridge of the receptacle supported on a perimeter edge of the lid and positioned between the perimeter ridge and at least a ridge segment disposed on the support edge. Accordingly, this cooperating encasement system enables safe stacking and fitting, guaranteeing greater stability of two or more packagings.
  • the receptacle may comprise at least a means of separating the parts, such as a support, which may be placed inside the receptacle and preferably encased by means of grooves.
  • the receptacle may comprise at least an encasement means for packing and/or separating the parts, and the encasement means may be arranged by projections and/or grooves.
  • the packaging (E) comprises a receptacle (1) closed by a lid (2), and said packaging (E) is preferably manufactured by a process of injection in thermoplastic material.
  • a packaging (E) comprises a closing and sealing means (3) arranged by the cooperating encasement of a perimeter edge (11), disposed on a wall (10) of the receptacle (1) and encasable in a perimeter channel (21) disposed in the internal region of the lid (2) and endowed with closing and sealing segments (22) which project downwardly so as to receive the perimeter edge (11) when the lid is closed (2).
  • Said closing and sealing means (3) is projected and arranged to form encasement regions that prevent the entry of humidity and liquids into the packaging (E), so as to guarantee the integrity of the product during storage and transport thereof.
  • the lid (2) comprises at least an articulated flap (24) by means of a folding line (25), and said articulated flap (24) projects downwardly and comprises an internal region (27) endowed with at least a locking protrusion (26) of the lid (2) on the receptacle (1), which also comprises at least a protrusion (28) disposed on the wall (10) which when encased cooperatingly with the protrusion (26) promotes locking by mechanical interference.
  • the folding line (25) is less thick and flexible.
  • the wall (10) comprises at least a recess (12) arranged to receive the internal region (27) of the locking flap (24) of the lid (2) on the receptacle (1).
  • the internal region (27) projects so as to promote the setting in the recess (12) disposed on the wall (10) of the receptacle (1).
  • the flap (24) of the lid (2) comprises an auxiliary grasp region (29) which projects from its face.
  • the closing and sealing means (3) combined with the locking form by means of the articulated flap (6) prevents the involuntary opening of the lid (2) when transporting or handling the packaging (E) for replacement or sale.
  • the lid (2) comprises projections (4) disposed on its top face (41), and said projections (4) continuously stand out the thickness of the top face (41) and are interconnected and delimited by a perimeter ridge (42).
  • This constructive shape of the lid (2) provides greater rigidity and enables a reduction in material for the manufacturing thereof, and being symmetrical, also facilitates the practical opening and closing thereof.
  • a packaging (E) comprises a stacking means arranged by the cooperating encasement of a lower ridge (13) of the receptacle (1) supported on a perimeter edge (43) of the lid (2) and positioned between the perimeter ridge (42) and at least a ridge segment (44) disposed on the support edge (43). Accordingly, this cooperating encasement system enables safe stacking and fitting, guaranteeing greater stability of two or more packagings (E).
  • the receptacle (1) may comprise at least a means of separating the parts (P), such as a support (S), which can be placed inside the receptacle (1) and preferably encased by means of grooves (14).
  • the receptacle (1) may comprise at least an encasement means for packing and/or separating the parts (P), and the encasement means may be arranged by projections and/or grooves (not illustrated).
  • the encasement and/or part separation means inside the packaging enable organized, safe and stable packing.
  • the packaging (E) may be made in different sizes so as to enable suitable packing of brake pads for the varied models of automotive vehicles.
