Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical sector concerning the packaging of articles containing pharmaceutical and/or cosmetic products, such as for example vials or syringes, internally of relative boxes.
  • articles containing pharmaceutical and/or cosmetic products are initially arranged in special support containers made of cardboard or card; then, subsequently, these support containers are inserted, singly or possibly stacked on one another, internally of special boxes, for obtaining the final package.
  • Support containers made of cardboard or card are obtained starting from flat blanks which, following specific cardboard sector operations, are folded about relative score lines, so as to form the container which has the particularity of being able to take on two different configurations: a flattened configuration and an opened-out configuration.
  • These cardboard containers are generally stored in the flattened configuration, to minimise volumes, and to thus reduce the space required for storage thereof, and are brought into the opened-out configuration only when they are about to receive the articles.
  • a known type of container used for receiving and containing articles that have to be packed inside a relative box is constituted in the following way.
  • This container when placed in the opened-out configuration, adapted for receiving the articles to be packed, comprises:
  • the container is placed in the opened-out configuration starting from a flattened configuration for storage, wherein: the first wall arranged in the plane identified by the bottom externally aligned to the bottom; the second wall is arranged in a plane parallel to the plane identified by the bottom and superposed on the bottom itself; and the upper face is arranged in a parallel plane to the plane identified by the bottom and superposed both on the bottom and the first wall.
  • the second wall will also rotate and will move into an angled configuration with respect to the bottom, while the upper face, connected to both the first wall and the second wall, will rotate with respect to the first and second wall, and will be at an angle with respect thereto and opposite the bottom.
  • the upper face bears down on the first wall and on the second wall, which therefore tend to fold with respect to the bottom and tend to return to the starting position thereof, i.e. into the flattened configuration of the container.
  • This problem is particularly serious for packing machines in which the inserting and arranging of the cardboard container internally of the box is carried out by means of an operation of insertion of the container that takes place along a perpendicular direction to the two opposite sides along which the first wall and the second wall are arranged.
  • the only solution that can be used, for avoiding the cardboard container losing shape during the insertion is to advance the container along a parallel direction to the two opposite sides along which the first wall and the second wall are arranged, and then to rotate the container when being inserted into the box.
  • Document JP H0625115U discloses a cardboard container according to the preamble of claim 1, while document JP H07 205967A discloses a cardboard container according to another prior art solution.
  • the aim of the present invention consists in obviating the drawbacks of cardboard containers of known type.
  • the above-mentioned aim is obtained with a cardboard container for articles, such as vials/syringes, containing the pharmaceutical/cosmetic products of claim 1.
  • the cardboard container of the present invention will advantageously be able to autonomously maintain the assumed opened-out configuration.
  • a cardboard container according to claim 1
  • reference numeral (1) denotes a cardboard container for articles, being vials/syringes (2) containing pharmaceutical/cosmetic products, object of the present invention.
  • the container (1) is obtained starting from a blank and is such as to be able to take on an opened-out configuration (V), starting from a flattened configuration (A).
  • the container (1) When in the opened-out configuration (V), the container (1) comprises: a bottom (3); a first wall (P1) folded and arranged at an angle with respect to the bottom (3); a second wall (P2) opposite the first wall (P1), and folded and arranged at an angle with respect to the bottom (3); an upper face (FS), opposite the bottom (3), between the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2), folded and arranged at an angle with respect to the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2), the upper face (FS) comprising at least an opening (4) defining a housing (40) for inserting and positioning an article.
  • a peculiarity of the container (1) of the present invention consists in the fact that it also comprises: at least a slot (5) on the first wall (P1) or on the second wall (P2), and at least a wing (6) jointed foldably to the bottom (3), between the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2), so as to be able to be arranged at an angle with respect to the bottom (3) and to be inserted between the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2) and the upper face (FS), when the container (1) is in the opened-out configuration (V).
  • the wing (6) comprises a tab (7) predisposed so as to be able to insert in said slot (5), when the wing (6) is folded at an angle with respect to the bottom (3) and inserted between the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2), so as to stabilise the opened-out configuration (V) of the container (1).
  • the container (1) of the invention is placed in the opened-out configuration (V) starting from a flattened configuration (A).
  • the container (1) has: the first wall (P1) arranged in the plane identified by the bottom (3) externally aligned to the bottom (3); the second wall (P2) arranged in un plane parallel to the plane identified by the bottom (3) and superposed on the bottom (3) itself; the upper face (FS) arranged in a parallel plane to the plane identified by the bottom (3) and superposed both on the bottom (3) and the first wall (P1); the at least a wing (6) arranged in the plane identified by the bottom (3) externally aligned to the bottom (3).
  • the container (1) of the present invention requires no presence of machines provided with special devices for maintaining the shape in the opened-out configuration during the positioning operations of the articles in the container (1), and during transport and inserting of the container (1) internally of a relative box.
  • the wing (6) has a polygonal shape so as to comprise a base side (8), jointed to the bottom (3), at least a first side (9), consecutive to the base side (8), in which the tab (7) is realised, and at least a second side (10), consecutive to the base side (8) and opposite the first side (9), which is inclined with respect to the base side (8) by an angle such as to enable inserting the wing (6), when folded and arranged at an angle with respect to the bottom (3), between the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2) which are folded at an angle with respect to the bottom (3).
  • This particular conformation of the wing (6) will advantageously enable easier insertion of the wing (6) between the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2), when these walls are positioned at an angle with respect to the bottom (3), without risking the wing (6) interfering with the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2) when the wing (6) is folded at an angle with respect to the bottom (3) and forced to become arranged between the two walls (see figure 8 , for example).
  • the wing (6) preferably has a shape such as to comprise a hook-shaped element (11) for, when the tab (7) is inserted in the slot (5), hooking the tab (7) to the first wall (P1) or the second wall (P2); see figures 6-8 .
  • the coupling between the at least a slot (5) and the tab (7) will advantageously be more stable and safe, providing a further guarantee of the opened-out configuration (V).
  • the angle of inclination is selected in such a way as to allow inserting of the hook-shaped element (11) in the slot (5), if present, in order to guarantee a correct and stable coupling between the tab (7) and the slot (5).
  • the container (1) is conformed so that the first wall (P1) is foldably jointed to the bottom (3) at a first lateral edge (B1) of the bottom (3) and the second wall (P2) is foldably jointed to the bottom (3) at a second lateral edge (B2) of the bottom (3), parallel and opposite the first lateral edge (B1).
  • the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2) can both be in a single body with the bottom (3) and jointed foldably to the bottom (3) along special score lines, respectively at the first lateral edge (B1) and the second lateral edge (B2), for enabling the folding of the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2) with respect to the bottom (3).
  • first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2) can both be glued to the bottom (3) in such a way as to be able to fold with respect to the bottom (3).
  • first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2) can be jointed to the bottom (3) by special flaps (not illustrated).
  • the first wall (P1) or the second wall (P2) of the container (1) comprise at least a window (12) communicating with the opening (4) present in the upper face (FS) in order advantageously to enable insertion and positioning in the housing (40) of an elongate article having a length that is greater than a distance between the first wall (P1) and the second wall (P2).
  • the upper face (FS) can preferably comprise more than one opening and therefore more than one housing, so as to enable inserting and positioning a plurality of articles.
  • the first wall (P1) or the second wall (P2) of the container (1) can comprise more than one window, each communicating with an opening present in the upper face (FS) so as to enable, advantageously, insertion and positioning in the relative housings that will thus be formed of articles having an elongate shape.
