Definitions

  • the invention relates to a box for transporting one or more products, typically leather goods, chocolates, stationery, etc. as well as an associated manufacturing method.
  • Packagings however do not sufficiently protect the product and may also be damaged during transport, while packages are often unsightly and have dimensions that are often too large compared to the dimensions of the products transported, so that it is often necessary to fill the excess space with paper, stops or bags sealed and inflated with air.
  • the document US 2011/024321 discloses a plastic package for interleaving portions of a package, and a process for printing on multiple surfaces of the package to produce attractive visual effects.
  • the document US 2016/200501 discloses a strip of cleaning products comprising first and second carrier sheets and a plurality of pockets (50) containing a cleaning composition. Each of the pockets is disposed in a respective recess formed in an upper surface of the first support sheet. The first support sheet is sealed to the second support sheet such that a second internal atmosphere is created between the second support sheet and the plurality of pockets.
  • WO 2008/002041 discloses a disposable compressed tissue packaging case comprising a first receptacle portion which contains a liquid, a second receptacle portion which has a shoulder portion on the upper portion of the first receptacle portion such that the cross section of the second portion receptacle is greater than that of the first receptacle portion, and which is separated from the first receptacle portion by a release film heat-sealed to the shoulder portion by a heat seal operation, so that it may contain dehydrated and compressed tissue, and a protective film which covers the upper portion of the second receptacle portion.
  • the document US 2014/000219 discloses a resealable packaging container for accommodating articles comprising an envelope of flexible material that encloses the goods therein. A perforated panel is cut into the envelope to allow movement between the open and closed positions.
  • An object of the invention is therefore to provide a box for the transport of one or more products, capable of protecting the product in particular against shocks, which is adaptable to the size and shape of the product or products it houses, more aesthetic than a conventional cardboard package while being easy to perform and for a negligible cost.
  • the invention proposes a box for transporting one or more products, said box being produced according to a manufacturing method as described above and comprising a bottom formed by the first plate, at least one slice formed by the second plate and a lid formed in the third plate.
  • a box 1 for transporting one or more products 2 according to the invention comprises a bottom 3, at least one wafer 4 and at least one cover 5.
  • the box 1 further comprises at least one central recess 6 formed between the bottom 3, the slice 4 and the lid 5 in which the product or products 2 are housed.
  • the box 1 can have any shape.
  • the box 1 may be tubular in shape and comprise a slice 4 forming a cylindrical wall of revolution, or rectangular and comprise four parallel walls in pairs, or have a complex shape.
  • the contour of the recess 6 is chosen so that the product 2 is clamped into the recess 6 and locked in position by the walls defining the recess 6.
  • the shape and dimensions of the recess 6 are then adjusted to the shape and dimensions of the product 2 that the box 1 is intended to receive, to ensure the holding of the product 2 in the box 1 and to ensure its integrity during transport.
  • the walls defining the recess 6 are straight in order to facilitate the insertion and clamping of the product 2, so that the recess 6 has a cylindrical shape. This is however not limiting, the walls of the recess 6 being inclined relative to the bottom 3.
  • the depth of the recess 6 (that is to say the dimension in a normal direction at the bottom 3 of the box 1) may be greater than the height of the product 2, so that the product 2 does not is not in tight fit along this dimension in the box 1, the tight fit being furthermore achieved by the walls defining the recess 6 in the second plate 20.
  • a maximum space of less than 1 mm may be left between the product 2 and the face of the second plate 20 which delimits the recess 6.
  • the products 2 can be housed in the same recess 6, by stacking the products 2 between the bottom 3 and the cover 5.
  • the products 2 preferably have the same dimension, or even are identical.
  • the depth of the recesses 6 formed in the second plate 20 can be adapted to the height of the products 2 housed by each recess 6, so that the recesses 6 of the same second plate 20 can have heights and different outlines.
  • the distance between the bottom 3 and the lid 5 of the box 1 is then at least equal to the height of the thickest product 2 to be housed in the box 1.
  • the second plate 20 can be attached first to the first plate 10 and then to the third plate 30, or vice versa.
  • the recess 6 can then be formed in the second plate 20 before or after its fixing on the first plate 10 or on the third plate 30.
  • the second plate 20 can be attached simultaneously to the first 10 and the third plate 30, in which case the step S2 of forming the recess 6 is performed prior to the fixing step S4.
  • the third plate 30 and the first plate 10 can be interconnected by a connection plate, pressed against the wafer 4.
  • the third plate 30, the connection plate and the first plate 10 can then be monoblock and formed integrally and in one piece in the same sheet, and if necessary grooved at the edges of the box 1 .
  • the recesses 6 can be through and lead to both the first plate 10 and the third plate 30, or blind and only lead to the first plate or the third plate 30. It will be understood of course that a same box 1 can understand both through recesses 6 and blind recesses 6 which open on one or other of the plates 10, 30.
  • the first plate 10, the second plate 20 and the third plate 30 may be monolayers or multilayers and each comprise at least one of the following sheets 22: a single corrugated corrugated sheet, a corrugated double corrugated sheet, a sheet of compact cardboard, a sheet of cardboard, a sheet of paper, a wooden plate, a metal alloy sheet such as an aluminum alloy, a plastic sheet especially of expanded polymer or polystyrene, a sheet made of a material ceramic, a sheet made of a composite material comprising a fiber-reinforced matrix, a leather sheet, an imitation leather sheet and / or a synde-type mixed leather sheet.
  • the choice of the type and the number of sheets 22 to form the second plate 20 depends on the thickness of the product 2 to be transported, the properties of the product 2 to be transported (product sensitive to heat, moisture, etc.), the finish (appearance) desired for the box 1, the allowable weight for the box 1 (in particular when the price of transport thereof by a carrier depends on the weight of the object transported) and the desired cost price for the box 1.
  • the thicker the product 2 to be conveyed the greater the number of sheets 22 forming the second plate 20 and / or the thickness of each individual sheet 22 may be important.
  • the second plate 20 may comprise one or more sheets 22 of metal alloy.
  • the second plate 20 comprises for example at least two sheets 22 of corrugated cardboard, typically double flutes.
  • This type of sheet 22 makes it possible, for a lower cost, to easily obtain a box 1 having a large thickness by simply stacking the sheets 22 of cardboard.
  • These sheets 22 of cardboard are also easy to supply and cut to form the recess 6.
  • a decorative strip may also be fixed on the edge 4 of the second plate 20 and / or on the outer face of the first plate 10 and / or on the outer face of the third plate 30.
  • the decorative strip may then extend over the entire height of the second plate 20 and / or the first plate 10 and / or the third plate 30, or only a part.
  • the decorative strip may be rimmed under the first and / or third plate 10, 30.
  • a decorative strip may be applied on all or part of the height of the recess 6.
  • said band may optionally make the box 1 hermetic.
  • the decorative strip comprises incisions without removal of material in the areas intended to come round the rounded corners.
  • the incisions are made according to the height of the band from the edge thereof.
  • incisions are formed from both edges of the strip, but do not extend over its entire height.
  • the decorative strip comprises V-shaped incisions with removal of material in the areas intended to come opposite the rounded corners.
  • the V-shaped incisions are formed in each edge of the strip, but do not extend over its entire height.
  • the first plate 10, second plate 20 and third plate 30 may be the same or comprise a different number of sheets 22 and / or comprise different types of sheets 22.

Description

DOMAINE DE L'INVENTIONFIELD OF THE INVENTION

L'invention concerne une boîte pour le transport d'un ou plusieurs produits, typiquement des produits de maroquinerie, de chocolaterie, de papeterie, etc. ainsi qu'un procédé de fabrication associé.The invention relates to a box for transporting one or more products, typically leather goods, chocolates, stationery, etc. as well as an associated manufacturing method.

ARRIERE-PLAN TECHNOLOGIQUEBACKGROUND

Actuellement, les produit de petite dimension tels que les produits de maroquinerie, de chocolaterie, de papeterie, etc. sont transportés soit dans leur emballage (ou packaging), soit dans un colis en carton afin d'en protéger le contenu.Currently, small products such as leather goods, chocolates, stationery, etc. are transported either in their packaging (or packaging) or in a cardboard package to protect the contents.

Les packagings ne protègent cependant pas suffisamment le produit et risquent par ailleurs de s'abîmer pendant le transport, tandis que les colis sont souvent peu esthétiques et ont des dimensions qui sont souvent trop importantes par rapport aux dimensions des produits transportés, de sorte qu'il s'avère souvent nécessaire de combler l'espace excédentaire avec du papier, des butées ou encore des sacs fermés hermétiquement et gonflés d'air.Packagings however do not sufficiently protect the product and may also be damaged during transport, while packages are often unsightly and have dimensions that are often too large compared to the dimensions of the products transported, so that it is often necessary to fill the excess space with paper, stops or bags sealed and inflated with air.

Ces solutions de transport ne sont donc pas satisfaisantes, notamment lorsque le produit est destiné à être offert ou à être utilisé en tant qu'élément de promotion.These transport solutions are therefore not satisfactory, especially when the product is intended to be offered or to be used as a promotional element.

Le document US 2011/024321 décrit un conditionnement en plastique permettant de souder de manière entrelacée des parties d'un conditionnement, ainsi qu'un procédé d'impression sur de multiples surfaces du conditionnement en vue de produire des effets visuels attractifs. Le document US 2016/200501 décrit une bande) de produits de nettoyage comprenant des première et seconde feuilles de support et une pluralité de poches (50) contenant une composition de nettoyage. Chacune des poches est disposée dans un creux respectif formé dans une surface supérieure de la première feuille de support. La première feuille de support est scellée à la seconde feuille de support de telle sorte qu'une seconde atmosphère interne est créée entre la seconde feuille de support et la pluralité de poches.The document US 2011/024321 discloses a plastic package for interleaving portions of a package, and a process for printing on multiple surfaces of the package to produce attractive visual effects. The document US 2016/200501 discloses a strip of cleaning products comprising first and second carrier sheets and a plurality of pockets (50) containing a cleaning composition. Each of the pockets is disposed in a respective recess formed in an upper surface of the first support sheet. The first support sheet is sealed to the second support sheet such that a second internal atmosphere is created between the second support sheet and the plurality of pockets.

Le document WO 2008/002041 décrit un étui d'emballage pour tissus comprimés jetables comprenant une première partie réceptacle qui contient un liquide, une seconde partie réceptacle qui comporte une partie d'épaulement sur la partie supérieure de la première partie réceptacle de manière que la section transversale de la seconde partie réceptacle est supérieure à celle de la première partie réceptacle, et qui est séparée de la première partie réceptacle par une pellicule détachable thermosoudée sur la partie d'épaulement par une opération de thermosoudure, de sorte qu'elle peut contenir des tissus déshydratés et comprimés, et une pellicule de protection qui recouvre la partie supérieure de la seconde partie réceptacle.The document WO 2008/002041 discloses a disposable compressed tissue packaging case comprising a first receptacle portion which contains a liquid, a second receptacle portion which has a shoulder portion on the upper portion of the first receptacle portion such that the cross section of the second portion receptacle is greater than that of the first receptacle portion, and which is separated from the first receptacle portion by a release film heat-sealed to the shoulder portion by a heat seal operation, so that it may contain dehydrated and compressed tissue, and a protective film which covers the upper portion of the second receptacle portion.

Le document US 2014/000219 décrit un contenant d'emballage refermable pour loger des articles comprenant une enveloppe en un matériau souple qui renferme les marchandises à l'intérieur. Un panneau perforé est découpé dans l'enveloppe pour permettre le mouvement entre les positions ouverte et fermée.The document US 2014/000219 discloses a resealable packaging container for accommodating articles comprising an envelope of flexible material that encloses the goods therein. A perforated panel is cut into the envelope to allow movement between the open and closed positions.

DESCRIPTION DETAILLEE D'UN MODE DE REALISATIONDETAILED DESCRIPTION OF AN EMBODIMENT

Une boîte 1 pour le transport d'un ou plusieurs produits 2 conforme à l'invention comprend un fond 3, au moins une tranche 4 et au moins un couvercle 5. La boîte 1 comporte en outre au moins un évidement 6 central, formé entre le fond 3, la tranche 4 et le couvercle 5 dans lequel sont logés le ou les produits 2.A box 1 for transporting one or more products 2 according to the invention comprises a bottom 3, at least one wafer 4 and at least one cover 5. The box 1 further comprises at least one central recess 6 formed between the bottom 3, the slice 4 and the lid 5 in which the product or products 2 are housed.

La boîte 1 peut présenter toute forme. Par exemple, la boîte 1 peut être de forme tubulaire et comprendre une tranche 4 formant une paroi cylindrique de révolution, ou rectangulaire et comprendre quatre parois parallèles deux à deux, ou présenter une forme complexe.The box 1 can have any shape. For example, the box 1 may be tubular in shape and comprise a slice 4 forming a cylindrical wall of revolution, or rectangular and comprise four parallel walls in pairs, or have a complex shape.

Dans une forme de réalisation, le contour de l'évidement 6 est choisi de sorte que le produit 2 est inséré avec serrage dans l'évidement 6 et bloqué en position par les parois définissant l'évidement 6. La forme et les dimensions de l'évidement 6 sont alors ajustés à la forme et aux dimensions du produit 2 que la boîte 1 est destinée à recevoir, afin d'assurer la tenue du produit 2 dans la boîte 1 et de garantir son intégrité pendant le transport. De préférence, les parois définissant l'évidement 6 sont droites afin de faciliter l'insertion et le serrage du produit 2, de sorte que l'évidement 6 présente une forme cylindrique. Ceci n'est cependant pas limitatif, les parois de l'évidement 6 pouvant être inclinées par rapport au fond 3.In one embodiment, the contour of the recess 6 is chosen so that the product 2 is clamped into the recess 6 and locked in position by the walls defining the recess 6. The shape and dimensions of the recess 6 are then adjusted to the shape and dimensions of the product 2 that the box 1 is intended to receive, to ensure the holding of the product 2 in the box 1 and to ensure its integrity during transport. Preferably, the walls defining the recess 6 are straight in order to facilitate the insertion and clamping of the product 2, so that the recess 6 has a cylindrical shape. This is however not limiting, the walls of the recess 6 being inclined relative to the bottom 3.

On notera que la profondeur de l'évidement 6 (c'est-à-dire la dimension suivant une direction normale au fond 3 de la boîte 1) peut être supérieure à la hauteur du produit 2, de sorte que le produit 2 n'est pas en ajustement serré suivant cette dimension dans la boîte 1, l'ajustement serré étant par ailleurs réalisé par les parois définissant l'évidement 6 dans la deuxième plaque 20.Note that the depth of the recess 6 (that is to say the dimension in a normal direction at the bottom 3 of the box 1) may be greater than the height of the product 2, so that the product 2 does not is not in tight fit along this dimension in the box 1, the tight fit being furthermore achieved by the walls defining the recess 6 in the second plate 20.

Par exemple, un espace maximum inférieur à 1 mm peut être laissé entre le produit 2 et la face de la deuxième plaque 20 qui délimite l'évidement 6.For example, a maximum space of less than 1 mm may be left between the product 2 and the face of the second plate 20 which delimits the recess 6.

Par ailleurs, plusieurs produits 2 peuvent être logés dans un même évidement 6, en empilant les produits 2 entre le fond 3 et le couvercle 5. Dans ce cas, les produit 2 présentent de préférence une même dimension, voire sont identiques.Moreover, several products 2 can be housed in the same recess 6, by stacking the products 2 between the bottom 3 and the cover 5. In this case, the products 2 preferably have the same dimension, or even are identical.

Dans une forme de réalisation, la profondeur des évidements 6 formés dans la deuxième plaque 20 peut être adaptée à la hauteur des produits 2 logés par chaque évidement 6, de sorte que les évidements 6 d'une même deuxième plaque 20 peuvent présenter des hauteurs et des contours différents. La distance entre le fond 3 et le couvercle 5 de la boîte 1 est alors au moins égale à la hauteur du produit 2 le plus épais à loger dans la boîte 1.In one embodiment, the depth of the recesses 6 formed in the second plate 20 can be adapted to the height of the products 2 housed by each recess 6, so that the recesses 6 of the same second plate 20 can have heights and different outlines. The distance between the bottom 3 and the lid 5 of the box 1 is then at least equal to the height of the thickest product 2 to be housed in the box 1.

La fabrication S d'une telle boîte 1 peut alors comprendre les étapes suivantes :

  • fournir S1 une première plaque 10, une deuxième plaque 20 et une troisième plaque 30,
  • former S2 au moins un évidement 6 dans la deuxième plaque 20,
  • placer S3 un ou plusieurs produits 2 dans le ou les évidements 6 ainsi formés, et
  • fixer S4 la deuxième plaque 20 entre la première plaque 10 et la troisième plaque 30 de manière à recouvrir le ou les évidements 6.
The manufacture S of such a box 1 can then comprise the following steps:
  • supplying S1 a first plate 10, a second plate 20 and a third plate 30,
  • forming S2 at least one recess 6 in the second plate 20,
  • placing S3 one or more products 2 in the recess or recesses 6 thus formed, and
  • fix S4 the second plate 20 between the first plate 10 and the third plate 30 so as to cover the recess or recesses 6.

On comprendra bien entendu que l'ordre des étapes S1 à S4 n'est pas limitatif. Ainsi, la deuxième plaque 20 peut être fixée d'abord sur la première plaque 10 puis sur la troisième plaque 30, ou inversement. L'évidement 6 peut alors être formé dans la deuxième plaque 20 avant ou après sa fixation sur la première plaque 10 ou sur la troisième plaque 30.It will of course be understood that the order of steps S1 to S4 is not limiting. Thus, the second plate 20 can be attached first to the first plate 10 and then to the third plate 30, or vice versa. The recess 6 can then be formed in the second plate 20 before or after its fixing on the first plate 10 or on the third plate 30.

En variante, la deuxième plaque 20 peut être fixée simultanément sur la première 10 et la troisième plaque 30, auquel cas l''étape S2 de formation de l'évidement 6 est réalisée préalablement à l'étape S4 de fixation.Alternatively, the second plate 20 can be attached simultaneously to the first 10 and the third plate 30, in which case the step S2 of forming the recess 6 is performed prior to the fixing step S4.

Dans une variante de réalisation, la troisième plaque 30 et la première plaque 10 peuvent être reliées entre elles par une plaque de connexion, plaquée contre la tranche 4. La troisième plaque 30, la plaque de connexion et la première plaque 10 peuvent alors être monobloc et formées intégralement et en une seule pièce dans une même feuille, et le cas échéant rainées au niveau des arêtes de la boîte 1.In an alternative embodiment, the third plate 30 and the first plate 10 can be interconnected by a connection plate, pressed against the wafer 4. The third plate 30, the connection plate and the first plate 10 can then be monoblock and formed integrally and in one piece in the same sheet, and if necessary grooved at the edges of the box 1 .

Les évidements 6 peuvent être traversants et déboucher à la fois sur la première plaque 10 et la troisième plaque 30, ou borgnes et ne déboucher que sur la première plaque ou la troisième plaque 30. On comprendra bien entendu qu'une même boîte 1 peut comprendre à la fois des évidements 6 traversants et des évidements 6 borgnes qui débouchent sur l'une ou l'autre des plaques 10, 30.The recesses 6 can be through and lead to both the first plate 10 and the third plate 30, or blind and only lead to the first plate or the third plate 30. It will be understood of course that a same box 1 can understand both through recesses 6 and blind recesses 6 which open on one or other of the plates 10, 30.

La première plaque 10, la deuxième plaque 20 et la troisième plaque 30 peuvent être monocouches ou multicouches et chacune comprendre l'une au moins des feuilles 22 suivantes : une feuille de carton ondulé simple cannelure, une feuille de carton ondulé double cannelure, une feuille de carton compact, une feuille de carton plume, une feuille de papier, une plaque en bois, une feuille en alliage métallique tel qu'un alliage d'aluminium, une feuille plastique notamment en polymère expansé ou en polystyrène, une feuille dans un matériau céramique, une feuille dans un matériau composite comprenant une matrice renforcée par des fibres, une feuille en cuir, une feuille en simili cuir et/ou une feuille en cuir mélangé du type synderme.The first plate 10, the second plate 20 and the third plate 30 may be monolayers or multilayers and each comprise at least one of the following sheets 22: a single corrugated corrugated sheet, a corrugated double corrugated sheet, a sheet of compact cardboard, a sheet of cardboard, a sheet of paper, a wooden plate, a metal alloy sheet such as an aluminum alloy, a plastic sheet especially of expanded polymer or polystyrene, a sheet made of a material ceramic, a sheet made of a composite material comprising a fiber-reinforced matrix, a leather sheet, an imitation leather sheet and / or a synde-type mixed leather sheet.

Le choix du type et du nombre de feuilles 22 pour former la deuxième plaque 20 dépend de l'épaisseur du produit 2 à transporter, des propriétés du produit 2 à transporter (produit sensible à la chaleur, à l'humidité, etc.), de la finition (aspect) souhaitée pour la boîte 1, du poids admissible pour la boîte 1 (notamment lorsque le prix du transport de celle-ci par un transporteur dépend du poids de l'objet transporté) ainsi que du coût de revient souhaité pour la boîte 1.The choice of the type and the number of sheets 22 to form the second plate 20 depends on the thickness of the product 2 to be transported, the properties of the product 2 to be transported (product sensitive to heat, moisture, etc.), the finish (appearance) desired for the box 1, the allowable weight for the box 1 (in particular when the price of transport thereof by a carrier depends on the weight of the object transported) and the desired cost price for the box 1.

Par exemple, plus le produit 2 à transporter est épais, plus le nombre de feuilles 22 formant la deuxième plaque 20 peut être élevé et/ou l'épaisseur de chaque feuille 22 individuelle peut être importante. Par ailleurs, lorsque le produit 2 à transporter doit être protégé de l'environnement extérieur, et notamment des températures élevées, la deuxième plaque 20 peut comprendre une ou plusieurs feuilles 22 en alliage métallique.For example, the thicker the product 2 to be conveyed, the greater the number of sheets 22 forming the second plate 20 and / or the thickness of each individual sheet 22 may be important. Moreover, when the product 2 to be transported must be protected from the external environment, and in particular high temperatures, the second plate 20 may comprise one or more sheets 22 of metal alloy.

Dans une forme de réalisation, la deuxième plaque 20 comprend par exemple au moins deux feuilles 22 de carton ondulé, typiquement à double cannelures. Ce type de feuilles 22 permet en effet, pour un moindre coût, d'obtenir facilement une boîte 1 présentant une grande épaisseur par simple empilement des feuilles 22 de carton. Ces feuilles 22 de carton sont en outre faciles à approvisionner et à découper afin de former l'évidement 6.In one embodiment, the second plate 20 comprises for example at least two sheets 22 of corrugated cardboard, typically double flutes. This type of sheet 22 makes it possible, for a lower cost, to easily obtain a box 1 having a large thickness by simply stacking the sheets 22 of cardboard. These sheets 22 of cardboard are also easy to supply and cut to form the recess 6.

Le cas échéant, une bande décorative peut en outre être fixée sur la tranche 4 de la deuxième plaque 20 et/ou sur la face externe de la première plaque 10 et/ou sur la face externe de la troisième plaque 30. La bande décorative peut alors s'étendre sur toute la hauteur de la deuxième plaque 20 et/ou de la première plaque 10 et/ou de la troisième plaque 30, ou sur une partie seulement. Optionnellement, la bande décorative peut être rembordée sous la première et/ou la troisième plaque 10, 30.If necessary, a decorative strip may also be fixed on the edge 4 of the second plate 20 and / or on the outer face of the first plate 10 and / or on the outer face of the third plate 30. The decorative strip may then extend over the entire height of the second plate 20 and / or the first plate 10 and / or the third plate 30, or only a part. Optionally, the decorative strip may be rimmed under the first and / or third plate 10, 30.

Le cas échéant, une bande décorative peut être appliquée sur tout ou partie la hauteur de l'évidement 6.Where appropriate, a decorative strip may be applied on all or part of the height of the recess 6.

Selon le matériau choisi pour la bande décorative, ladite bande peut éventuellement rendre la boîte 1 hermétique.Depending on the material chosen for the decorative strip, said band may optionally make the box 1 hermetic.

Lorsque les coins de la boîte 1 (ou le cas échéant de l'évidement 6) sont arrondis, la bande décorative comprend des incisions sans enlèvement de matière dans les zones destinées à venir en regard des coins arrondis. Les incisions sont réalisées suivant la hauteur de la bande depuis le bord de celle-ci. De préférence, des incisions sont formées depuis les deux bords de la bande, mais ne s'étendent pas sur toute sa hauteur.When the corners of the box 1 (or where appropriate the recess 6) are rounded, the decorative strip comprises incisions without removal of material in the areas intended to come round the rounded corners. The incisions are made according to the height of the band from the edge thereof. Preferably, incisions are formed from both edges of the strip, but do not extend over its entire height.

Lorsque les coins de la boîte 1 (ou le cas échéant de l'évidement 6) sont à angle droit, la bande décorative comprend des incisions en forme de V avec enlèvement de matière dans les zones destinées à venir en regard des coins arrondis. Les incisions en forme de V sont formées dans chaque bord de la bande, mais ne s'étendent pas sur toute sa hauteur.When the corners of the box 1 (or where appropriate the recess 6) are at right angles, the decorative strip comprises V-shaped incisions with removal of material in the areas intended to come opposite the rounded corners. The V-shaped incisions are formed in each edge of the strip, but do not extend over its entire height.

La première plaque 10, la deuxième plaque 20 et la troisième plaque 30 peuvent être identiques ou comprendre un nombre de feuilles 22 différent et/ou comprendre des types de feuilles 22 différentes.The first plate 10, second plate 20 and third plate 30 may be the same or comprise a different number of sheets 22 and / or comprise different types of sheets 22.

En variante, la première plaque 10 et/ou la troisième plaque 30 peuvent être réalisées dans une feuille pleine, plus fine. La feuille pleine peut notamment comprendre une feuille de carton simple micro cannelure.Alternatively, the first plate 10 and / or the third plate 30 can be made in a full, thinner sheet. The solid sheet may in particular comprise a sheet of simple micro-corrugated cardboard.

Par exemple, la première plaque 10 et la troisième plaque 30 peuvent chacune comprendre une feuille de carton simple micro cannelure tandis que la deuxième plaque 20 peut comprendre plusieurs feuilles 22 de carton ondulé à double cannelures. On a ainsi illustré en figure 1b une boîte dont la deuxième plaque 20 comprend trois feuilles 22 de carton ondulé à double cannelures.For example, the first plate 10 and the third plate 30 may each comprise a single micro-corrugated cardboard sheet while the second plate 20 may comprise a plurality of corrugated double-corrugated sheets 22. We have thus illustrated figure 1b a box whose second plate 20 comprises three sheets 22 of corrugated cardboard with double grooves.

Afin de former le couvercle 5, la troisième plaque 30 peut comprendre une ligne de faiblesse 32 formée dans une zone s'étendant globalement dans le prolongement des parois de l'évidement 6 (étape S5). La ligne de faiblesse 32 peut notamment comprendre une ligne prédécoupée ou une zone localement amincie. La présence d'une telle ligne de faiblesse 32 permet au destinataire du produit 2 d'ouvrir la boîte 1 proprement et facilement, sans risquer d'abîmer l'emballage du produit 2 lors de l'ouverture du couvercle 5.In order to form the cover 5, the third plate 30 may comprise a line of weakness 32 formed in an area extending generally in the extension of the walls of the recess 6 (step S5). The line of weakness 32 may in particular comprise a pre-cut line or a locally thinned zone. The presence of such a line of weakness 32 allows the recipient of the product 2 to open the box 1 cleanly and easily, without the risk of damaging the packaging of the product 2 when opening the lid 5.

Dans une forme de réalisation, la ligne de faiblesse 32 est formée dans une partie seulement de l'épaisseur de la troisième plaque 30 (de préférence dans sa face supérieure, c'est-à-dire dans la face de la troisième plaque 30 qui est à l'opposé de la deuxième plaque 20), le reste de l'épaisseur de la troisième plaque 30 étant découpée de manière sensiblement continue. Cette forme de réalisation de la ligne de faiblesse 32 permet d'éviter de déchirer la troisième plaque 30 lors de la séparation du couvercle 5 du reste de la troisième plaque 30, notamment lorsque la troisième plaque 30 est épaisse (par exemple lorsque la troisième plaque 30 est formée dans un carton dont l'épaisseur est supérieure à sept millimètres).In one embodiment, the line of weakness 32 is formed in only a portion of the thickness of the third plate 30 (preferably in its upper face, i.e. in the face of the third plate 30 which is opposite the second plate 20), the remainder of the thickness of the third plate 30 being cut substantially continuously. This embodiment of the line of weakness 32 makes it possible to avoid tearing the third plate 30 during the separation of the lid 5 from the remainder of the third plate 30, especially when the third plate 30 is thick (for example when the third plate 30 is formed in a carton whose thickness is greater than seven millimeters).

Pour réaliser une telle ligne de faiblesse 32, il est par exemple possible d'utiliser des couteaux oscillants sur une table. Les points d'attache laissés par les couteaux oscillants et formant la ligne de faiblesse 32 sont alors aléatoires et dépendent notamment de la vitesse de déplacement des couteaux oscillants, du matériau constitutif de la troisième plaque 30 ou encore de son épaisseur. En variante, la ligne de faiblesse 32 peut être réalisée à l'aide d'un outil de découpe, ce qui permet de maîtriser la position des points d'attaches le long de la ligne de faiblesse 32. Selon une autre variante encore, la troisième plaque 30 peut être multicouche, l'une des couches comportant la ligne de faiblesse 32 tandis que les autres couches sont découpées de manière sensiblement continue sur toute leur épaisseur.To achieve such a line of weakness 32, it is for example possible to use oscillating knives on a table. The attachment points left by the oscillating knives and forming the line of weakness 32 are then random and depend in particular on the speed of displacement of the oscillating knives, the material constituting the third plate 30 or its thickness. In a variant, the line of weakness 32 can be made using a cutting tool, which makes it possible to control the position of the attachment points along the line of weakness 32. According to another variant, the third plate 30 may be multilayer, one of the layers having the line of weakness 32 while the other layers are cut substantially continuously over their entire thickness.

En variante, comme illustré par exemple sur les figures 3 à 4c, lorsque les évidements 6 débouchent à la fois sur la troisième plaque 30 et sur la première plaque 10, un ou plusieurs couvercles 5 sont également formés dans la première plaque 10, en regard de la sortie des évidements 6 concernés. La ligne de faiblesse 32 définissant ces couvercles 5 peut alors également être formée dans une partie seulement de l'épaisseur de la première plaque 10, le reste de l'épaisseur de la première plaque 10 étant découpée de manière sensiblement continue.Alternatively, as illustrated for example on Figures 3 to 4c when the recesses 6 open on both the third plate 30 and the first plate 10, one or more covers 5 are also formed in the first plate 10, facing the outlet of the recesses 6 concerned. The line of weakness 32 defining these covers 5 can then also be formed in only a portion of the thickness of the first plate 10, the remainder of the thickness of the first plate 10 being cut substantially continuously.

Dans une forme de réalisation, les contours de la ligne de faiblesse 32 destinée à former le couvercle 5 (et le cas échéant de la découpe formée dans le reste de l'épaisseur de la plaque 10, 30 correspondante) sont plus grands que les contours de l'évidement 6 en regard, de sorte que la deuxième plaque 20 forme un épaulement 34 pour le couvercle 5. En d'autres termes, l'ouverture du couvercle 5 dévoile partiellement la face supérieure de la deuxième plaque 20, en plus de l'évidement 6, et le couvercle 5 repose sur l'épaulement 34. Le Demandeur s'est en effet aperçu du fait que ce dimensionnement du couvercle 5, et plus particulièrement la formation d'un épaulement 34 à la sortie de l'évidement 6, permettait, de manière simple et efficace, d'ouvrir facilement la boîte 1 sans accrocher le produit 2 qui est logé dans l'évidement 6 et sans nécessiter d'augmenter inutilement la hauteur de la boîte 1 par rapport à la hauteur dudit produit 2.In one embodiment, the contours of the line of weakness 32 for forming the cover 5 (and optionally the cut formed in the remainder of the thickness of the corresponding plate 10, 30) are larger than the contours. of the recess 6 opposite, so that the second plate 20 forms a shoulder 34 for the lid 5. In other words, the opening of the lid 5 partially reveals the upper face of the second plate 20, in addition to the recess 6, and the cover 5 rests on the shoulder 34. The Applicant has indeed realized that this dimensioning of the cover 5, and more particularly the formation of a shoulder 34 at the outlet of the recess 6, allowed, in a simple and effective way, to easily open the box 1 without hanging the product 2 which is housed in the recess 6 and without the need to unnecessarily increase the height of the box 1 relative to the height of said product 2.

On notera par ailleurs qu'un même couvercle 5 peut recouvrir plusieurs évidements 6, comme cela est illustré en figures 4 et 5a à 5c. Dans ce cas, le contour de la ligne de faiblesse 32 est de préférence plus grand que le plus grand contour logeant tous les évidements 6, afin de former l'épaulement 34.It will also be noted that the same cover 5 can cover several recesses 6, as illustrated in FIG. figures 4 and 5a to 5c . In that case, the contour of the line of weakness 32 is preferably larger than the largest contour housing all the recesses 6, to form the shoulder 34.

L'épaulement 34 peut par exemple former une bordure présentant une largeur d'environ cinq millimètres.The shoulder 34 may for example form a border having a width of about five millimeters.

Optionnellement, le contour de la ligne de faiblesse 32 est ouvert (et ne forme donc pas une boucle fermée) afin de former une charnière 33 pour le couvercle 5. Par exemple, pour un produit 2 et un évidement 6 rectangulaires, la ligne de faiblesse 32 peut avoir la forme d'un U. La partie destinée à former la charnière 33 peut, le cas échéant, être rainée afin de préformer la charnière 33 avant ouverture du couvercle 5.Optionally, the contour of the line of weakness 32 is open (and therefore does not form a closed loop) to form a hinge 33 for the cover 5. For example, for a product 2 and a recess 6 rectangular, the line of weakness 32 may have the shape of a U. The portion intended to form the hinge 33 may, if necessary, be slotted to preform the hinge 33 before opening the lid 5.

Dans une variante de réalisation, la troisième plaque 30 (et, le cas échéant la première plaque 10) peut être fixée de façon amovible sur la deuxième plaque 20, par exemple par l'intermédiaire d'un ou plusieurs aimants, de bandes de velours-crochets, d'une colle présentant une faible pégosité, etc. Dans cette variante, la troisième plaque 30 forme alors directement le couvercle 5.In an alternative embodiment, the third plate 30 (and, where appropriate, the first plate 10) can be removably attached to the second plate 20, for example by means of one or more magnets, velvet strips. hooks, glue with low tack, etc. In this variant, the third plate 30 then directly forms the lid 5.

Au moins un évidement supplémentaire 7 débouchant dans l'évidement 6 peut en outre être formé dans la deuxième plaque 20, sur tout ou partie de la hauteur de l'évidement 6 adjacent, afin de former un passage pour un doigt, par exemple le pouce. Une ligne de faiblesse supplémentaire 8 peut alors être formée dans la troisième plaque 30 (et/ou, le cas échéant, dans la première plaque 10 lorsque la première plaque 10 comprend un couvercle 5 dans le prolongement de l'évidement 6 concerné) au-dessus de l'évidement supplémentaire 7 afin de faciliter son accès. En variante, l'évidement supplémentaire 7 peut déboucher dans la troisième plaque 30 (et/ou, le cas échéant, dans la première plaque 10), de manière à dévoiler, avant ouverture, le passage pour le pouce.At least one additional recess 7 opening into the recess 6 may further be formed in the second plate 20, over all or part of the height of the adjacent recess 6, to form a passage for a finger, for example the thumb . An additional line of weakness 8 can then be formed in the third plate 30 (and / or, where appropriate, in the first plate 10 when the first plate 10 comprises a cover 5 in the extension of the recess 6 concerned). above the additional recess 7 to facilitate access. Alternatively, the additional recess 7 may open into the third plate 30 (and / or, where appropriate, into the first plate 10), so as to reveal, before opening, the passage for the thumb.

Dans le cas où un évidement supplémentaire 7 est réalisé, l'épaulement 34 peut n'être formé qu'au niveau du bord de l'évidement 6 qui s'étend à proximité de l'évidement supplémentaire 7. En variante, l'épaulement 34 peut s'étendre sur tout le contour de l'évidement 6.In the case where an additional recess 7 is made, the shoulder 34 may be formed only at the edge of the recess 6 which extends in the vicinity of the additional recess 7. Alternatively, the shoulder 34 may extend over the entire contour of the recess 6.

Lors de la fabrication de la boîte 1, les première, deuxième et troisième plaques 10, 20, 30 sont assemblées et fixées les unes aux autres à l'aide de techniques de fixation conventionnelles et adaptées au matériau constitutif des plaques 10, 20, 30.During the manufacture of the box 1, the first, second and third plates 10, 20, 30 are assembled and fixed to each other using conventional fastening techniques and adapted to the material constituting the plates 10, 20, 30 .

Par exemple, les plaques 10, 20, 30 peuvent être fixées par collage, notamment à l'aide d'une colle d'origine végétale (telle que de l'amidon), animale (telle que du collagène) ou de synthèse (par exemple une colle vinylique, époxy ou polyuréthane). Cette technique de fixation peut être utilisée quel que soit le matériau constitutif des feuilles 22 constituant les plaques 10, 20, 30.For example, the plates 10, 20, 30 may be fixed by gluing, in particular using a glue of plant origin (such as starch), animal (such as collagen) or synthetic (by example a vinyl glue, epoxy or polyurethane). This fixing technique can be used regardless of the material constituting the sheets 22 constituting the plates 10, 20, 30.

Les plaques 10, 20, 30 peuvent également être fixées à l'aide de clips, rapportés et fixés par collage ou complémentarité de forme sur la tranche 4 de la boîte 1.The plates 10, 20, 30 can also be fixed using clips, reported and fixed by bonding or complementary shape on the edge 4 of the box 1.

Dans le cas de plaques 10, 20, 30 en alliage métallique, lesdites plaques 10, 20, 30 peuvent également être fixées par soudure à ultrasons ou par vissage ou rivetage.In the case of plates 10, 20, 30 of metal alloy, said plates 10, 20, 30 can also be fixed by ultrasonic welding or by screwing or riveting.

Dans le cas de plaques 10, 20, 30 en cuir, simili cuir, cuir mélangé du type synderme, lesdites plaques peuvent également être fixées par couture ou par rivetage.In the case of plates 10, 20, 30 of leather, imitation leather, mixed leather syndle type, said plates can also be fixed by stitching or riveting.

La troisième plaque 30 et le cas échéant la première plaque 10 peuvent par ailleurs être fixées de manière amovible, comme indiqué plus haut, sur la deuxième plaque 20 lorsque lesdites plaques 30, 10 forment le couvercle 5.The third plate 30 and, if appropriate, the first plate 10 can also be detachably attached, as indicated above, to the second plate 20 when said plates 30, 10 form the cover 5.

Le cas échéant, plusieurs types de fixation différents peuvent être envisagés au sein d'une même boîte 1, notamment dans le cas où la deuxième plaque 20 comprend un multicouche comprenant plusieurs types de feuilles 22 différents.If necessary, several different types of attachment can be envisaged within the same box 1, especially in the case where the second plate 20 comprises a multilayer comprising several types of different sheets 22.

Lorsque les plaques 10, 20, 30 sont multicouches, les feuilles 22 formant chaque plaque 10, 20, 30 sont assemblées et fixées deux à deux pour éviter tout risque de désolidarisation à l'aide de l'une des techniques de fixation décrites ci-dessus. Les plaques 10, 20, 30 ainsi obtenues résistent alors davantage aux chocs.When the plates 10, 20, 30 are multilayered, the sheets 22 forming each plate 10, 20, 30 are assembled and fixed in pairs. to avoid any risk of disconnection using one of the attachment techniques described above. The plates 10, 20, 30 thus obtained are more resistant to shocks.

L'évidement 6 peut être réalisé à l'aide de toute technique conventionnelle adaptée au matériau constitutif de la deuxième plaque 20.The recess 6 can be made using any conventional technique adapted to the material constituting the second plate 20.

Par exemple, l'évidement 6 peut être réalisé par découpe laser ou mécanique à l'aide d'une lame, quel que soit le matériau constitutif de la deuxième plaque 20.For example, the recess 6 can be made by laser or mechanical cutting using a blade, whatever the material constituting the second plate 20.

En variante, dans le cas d'une plaque comprenant une feuille 22 métallique, l'évidement 6 peut être réalisé par poinçonnage.Alternatively, in the case of a plate comprising a metal sheet 22, the recess 6 can be made by punching.

Dans une forme de réalisation, la deuxième plaque 20 est multicouche et la boîte 1 comprend une quatrième plaque 40, disposée entre deux feuilles 22 de la deuxième plaque 20. Dans ce cas, deux des feuilles 22 de la deuxième plaque 20 sont espacées l'une de l'autre afin de ménager un espace destiné à recevoir la quatrième plaque 40.In one embodiment, the second plate 20 is multilayer and the box 1 comprises a fourth plate 40, disposed between two sheets 22 of the second plate 20. In this case, two of the sheets 22 of the second plate 20 are spaced apart. one another to provide a space for receiving the fourth plate 40.

Cette quatrième plaque 40 peut être pleine, auquel cas elle forme une cloison divisant les évidements 6 en deux sous-évidements 6, l'un des sous-évidements 6 débouchant sur la première plaque 10 tandis que l'autre des sous-évidements 6 débouche sur la troisième plaque 30. A la fois la première 10 et la troisième plaque 30 peuvent alors comprendre des lignes de faiblesse 32, à la sortie des sous-évidement 6 afin de former des couvercles 5 et de permettre l'accès aux évidements 6 de part et d'autre de la deuxième plaque 20.This fourth plate 40 may be solid, in which case it forms a partition dividing the recesses 6 into two sub-recesses 6, one of the sub-recesses 6 opening on the first plate 10 while the other of the sub-recesses 6 opens on the third plate 30. Both the first 10 and the third plate 30 can then comprise lines of weakness 32, at the outlet of the sub-recess 6 to form lids 5 and to allow access to the recesses 6 of both sides of the second plate 20.

En variante, la quatrième plaque 40 peut elle-même comprendre des évidements 6 configurés pour recevoir un ou plusieurs produits 2. Dans ce cas, la quatrième plaque 40 peut présenter les mêmes caractéristiques que la deuxième plaque 20 (simple ou multicouche comprenant plusieurs feuilles 22 identiques ou différentes). Pour des raisons esthétiques et pour éviter la sortie accidentelle des produits 2 logés dans les évidements 6 de la quatrième plaque 40, les feuilles 22 de la deuxième plaque 20 qui sont en contact avec (ou du moins en regard de) la quatrième plaque 40 sont de préférence pleines, c'est-à-dire dépourvues d'évidement 6, et définissent donc un fond 3 pour les évidements 6 adjacents qui sont formés dans la deuxième plaque 20. De plus, la quatrième plaque 40 est amovible afin de permettre son extraction et le prélèvement des produits 2 dans ses évidements 6 sans endommager la boîte 1.Alternatively, the fourth plate 40 may itself comprise recesses 6 configured to receive one or more products 2. In this case, the fourth plate 40 may have the same characteristics as the second plate 20 (single or multilayer comprising several sheets 22 identical or different). For aesthetic reasons and to avoid the accidental exit of the products 2 housed in the recesses 6 of the fourth plate 40, the sheets 22 of the second plate 20 which are in contact with (or at least opposite) the fourth plate 40 are preferably solid, that is to say devoid of recess 6, and thus define a bottom 3 for the adjacent recesses 6 which are formed in the second plate 20. In addition, the fourth plate 40 is removable to allow its extraction and removal of the products 2 in its recesses 6 without damaging the box 1.

La quatrième plaque 40 forme donc un tiroir de la boîte 1.The fourth plate 40 thus forms a drawer of the box 1.

Par exemple, un trou traversant 42 destiné à recevoir un plot 44 peut être formé dans la première 10 et/ou la troisième plaque 30 ainsi que dans la deuxième et la quatrième plaque 20, 40 (étape S7). L'introduction du plot 44 dans le trou traversant 42 à travers les plaques 20, 40, 10 et/ou 30 permet alors de bloquer en translation la quatrième plaque 40 dans la boîte 1. De préférence, afin de stabiliser la quatrième plaque 40 dans la boîte 1, deux trous traversants 42, destinés chacun à recevoir un plot 44, sont formés dans les plaques 20, 40, 10 et/ou 30.For example, a through hole 42 for receiving a stud 44 may be formed in the first and / or third plate 30 as well as in the second and fourth plates 20, 40 (step S7). The introduction of the stud 44 into the through-hole 42 through the plates 20, 40, 10 and / or 30 then makes it possible to block in translation the fourth plate 40 in the box 1. Preferably, in order to stabilize the fourth plate 40 in the box 1, two through holes 42, each intended to receive a stud 44, are formed in the plates 20, 40, 10 and / or 30.
