Definitions

  • the present invention refers to the field of compressible collapsible boxes which are for example constructed with a foldable rigid carton.
  • the present invention relates to the field of compressible collapsible cardboard boxes, for example pizza boxes, shoe boxes or the like.
  • the present invention relates to a blank of a collapsible collapsible box, particularly on a blank of a compressible collapsible pizza box.
  • the packaging boxes are generally formed from a single sheet of cardboard (or other material) configured to be folded along fold lines.
  • the majority of these packaging boxes are intended for single use and are frequently used for temporary storage and transport of goods, eg for temporary storage and transport of food. Once the goods are delivered or consumed, the box must be discarded or recycled by the user. Quite often, the dimensions of these boxes make it difficult to discard or recycle them in conventional waste containers, and it would therefore be desirable for these boxes to be preconfigured to ensure easy disposal. This is why boxes such as those described in the documents WO2007 / 149441 and US2005 / 087591 include at least one means of assisting with the destruction assisting the compression / destruction of the boxes to reduce the size and / or the volume.
  • divisional means that facilitate the division of the box into at least two parts.
  • these divisional means consist of perforations favoring the tearing of the panels forming the box.
  • perforation lines are provided to facilitate a folding of the box into several parts which overlap each other so as to reduce the volume of the box.
  • boxes provided with at least one means for aiding destruction but also means for maintaining the box in a folded and compressed form are also known from the state of the art.
  • the document US8919635 discloses a draft of a collapsible collapsible box which includes destruction aid means in the form of a fold line but also two precuts which are intended to meet and maintain the box in its folded and compressed (compressed) form. More particularly, these two pre-cuts respectively form a first flap and a second flap diametrically opposed, that is to say each located in opposite corners of the blank of the box.
  • the document US2004 / 0217154 also discloses a draft of a collapsible collapsible box which includes means for assisting the destruction in the form of a fold line and means for holding the box in its folded and compressed form. More particularly, the blank is provided, at two opposite walls, with a first male member in the form of a protuberance provided with a connecting member that can extend from a wall and a second female organ in the form of an obvious practiced in the other opposite wall.
  • a fitting of the male member and its connection member in the female member ensures the maintenance of the box in its folded and compressed state.
  • the document NL2018273 also discloses a draft of a collapsible collapsible box which includes destruction aid means in the form of a fold line and means for holding the box in its folded and compressed form.
  • These holding means are similar to those described in the document US2004 / 0217154 , with the difference that none of the holding means is provided with a connection member.
  • the blanks always comprise two distinct elements which must cooperate in such a way as to maintain the boxes in their folded and compressed form.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a compressible foldable box blank which, once in its compressed form, can be held in this form so that the folded box portions (eg accordion) only have spacings reduced between them and so that this compressed form has no protrusion and has only a minimum of ridges
  • Another objective pursued by the present invention is to provide a foldable and compressible box blank that is easy to manufacture, that is to say for which the precut and / or pleat numbers to be provided are reduced, the size / volume of the box can then be reduced and maintained in this reduced form.
  • Yet another object pursued by the present invention is to provide a foldable and compressible box blank which makes it possible to obtain easily and quickly the box maintained in its folded and compressed form, having to operate a minimum of manipulations.
  • said at least one destruction aid is disposed through said upper panel and / or said lower panel and / or said rear panel.
  • said holding means defines a belt surrounding said compressible box over its entire periphery when it is in its compressed form
  • the holding means wraps on the whole / all of a circumference of the compressed box, like a belt.
  • peripheral and circumference have the same meaning according to the present invention.
  • such a holding means defining a belt actually girdling the compressible box over its entire periphery when it is in its compressed form makes it possible to solve at least partially the problems of the state of the art mentioned above.
  • such a means of support defining a belt makes it possible to ensure that the folded, compressed and belted box is not decompressed, the reduced size / volume being maintained permanently without any decompaction. can not take place.
  • the girdling of the folded and compressed box ensures that the spacings between the folded box parts (for example accordion) are very significantly reduced and that there is no decompaction possible when the means of retaining a belt provides adequate force and pressure over the entire periphery of the folded and compressed box.
  • a compressible collapsible box blank according to the invention is perfectly suitable to be stored while occupying the minimum space but also to be thrown into plastic bags without tearing them since the folded compressed and belted box according to the invention does not has no protuberances or edges.
  • the precut is performed in one of the panels of the collapsible collapsible box and does not restrict the use of the latter.
  • the pre-cut is such that it does not weaken the box, which can be used normally, that is to say, it can accommodate the same content as when it has no precut.
  • This pre-cut has a first rest position according to which it is an integral part of one of the panels of the box. According to a second position, the precut being departing from one of the panels of the box, at least one zone of this pre-cut remaining connected to one of the panels of the box.
  • the precut is in the form of a belt so as to constitute a means for maintaining said compressible collapsible box when it is in its compressed form.
  • this belt is intended to wrap around the entire periphery (of the circumference) of the box in its compressed form so that the box remains permanently compressed without a decompaction taking place.
  • the precut thus defines a means for maintaining said compressible collapsible box in its compressed form.
  • connection member present at the holding means fits into the recess left by the precut (as soon as it is in its second position) once the box is in its form. compressed and belted. More concretely, once the holding means is wrapped around the compressed box and genuinely surrounds the compressed box over its entire periphery, the connection member can be inserted at least partially into a connection zone constituted by the obviously left by the precut (as soon as it is in its second position). This insertion of the connection member in the recess ensures the locking of the connection member, which ensures that the holding means (the belt) remains in place and exerts continuously and permanently a force and adequate pressure on the entire periphery of the box folded and compressed.
  • connection member into the recess left by the precut (as soon as it is in its second position) ensures that the holding means (belt) remains in place on the entire periphery of the the folded box compressed and that the force and pressure exerted by this holding means are permanently maintained in order to prevent any decompaction.
  • connection member present at the holding means is inserted into a connection means located on the holding means itself.
  • This connection means is located substantially at an end opposite to that comprising said connecting member on the holding means. More concretely, once the holding means is wrapped around the compressed box and genuinely surrounds the compressed box over its entire periphery, the connection member can be inserted at least partially into the connection means.
  • This insertion of the connection member in the connection means ensures the locking of the connection member, which ensures that the holding means (the belt) remains in place and exerts a continuous and permanent force and adequate pressure on the entire periphery of the folded and compressed box.
  • the insertion of the connection member in the connection means ensures that the holding means (belt) remains in place over the entire periphery of the compressed folded box and that the force and the pressure exerted by this maintaining means are permanently maintained to prevent decompaction.
  • a compressible collapsible box blank according to the invention minimizes the number of precuts to be provided during its manufacture. Indeed, a single precut plays both the role of male organ and female organ since it is the recess left by the holding means (the belt playing the role of male organ) or the means connection present on the holding means itself which constitute the female member into which the connecting member of the holding means is inserted. This is advantageous with respect to the known holding means of the documents US8919635 , US2004 / 0217154 and NL2018273 which consist of the cooperation of two distinct pre-cuts.
  • obtaining a folded box compressed and maintained in its compressed form is particularly easy with a collapsible and compressible box blank according to the invention.
  • a collapsible and compressible box blank according to the invention.
  • the obviously left by the precut from the moment when it is in its second position is accessible at any time and over its entire length, which greatly facilitates the insertion of the connection member of the holding means.
  • connection member is inserted into a connection means located on the holding means itself.
  • said precut defines a band, a tongue or a belt.
