Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a food product package.
  • a problem that is greatly felt by the authorities responsible for preventive health care is that of popularizing the use of medical devices, such as condoms or the like, adapted to limit the spread of infectious diseases among the youth population.
  • the solution that is proposed to solve this problem is that of pairing a package of these medical devices with packages of products that are very popular with young people, such as for example packaged food products that are particularly appreciated by young consumers, such as food products consumed as snacks, which can include, for example, potato chips in bags, packaged nuts or the like.
  • packages of products that are very popular with young people, such as for example packaged food products that are particularly appreciated by young consumers, such as food products consumed as snacks, which can include, for example, potato chips in bags, packaged nuts or the like.
  • Such pairing of packages are for instance described in LV 13494 B , WO 00/61460 A1 and US 2014/220185 A1 .
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a food product package that makes it possible to provide, in the same package, a food product and a medical device, such as for example a condom, without the risk that the food product and/or the medical device could undergo alterations or damage such as to nullify the possibility of its consumption or use.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a food product package that, owing to its construction characteristics, can be made with elements and materials that are readily available on the market so that it can be easily obtained even at low cost.
  • a still further object of the invention is to provide a food product package that is highly reliable so as to ensure the possibility of large-scale diffusion.
  • the food product package according to the invention comprises an outer enclosure 2, which is constituted, for example, by a bag or a box-like body made of suitable material, known per se, which contains inside it a food product 3, which can be, for example, in loose or granular form, such as potato chips, nuts or the like.
  • an inner enclosure 4 is internally accommodated in the outer enclosure 2 and contains, in turn, at least one medical device 5, which is constituted, for example, by at least one condom packaged inside its own packaging pouch or another medical device adapted to prevent infectious diseases.
  • the inner enclosure 4 defines at least one wall that has characteristics of an insulation barrier against substances that originate from the food product 3 and/or from the medical device 5, so as to eliminate the risk of a possible cross-contamination of the food product 3 and of the medical device by the substances contained in them, such as, for example, oils contained in the food product 3 or disinfectant or preservative substances present in the medical device 5 or in the food product 3.
  • the inner enclosure 4 has, at least on its surface directed toward the food product 3, characteristics suitable for contact with that food product, so that it can be safely inserted into the mass of the food product 3.
  • the inner enclosure 4 is perfectly sealed and sterilized and is, advantageously, made of recyclable materials.
  • the inner enclosure 4 comprises a bag made of a layered film 6.
  • the film 6 is, conveniently, structured so as to have at least one layer that is adapted to provide a barrier against liquid and/or gaseous substances and which therefore has adequate characteristics of impermeability to liquids, such as the liquids present in the food product 3 and in the medical device 5, and/or gases, such as vapors of volatile substances contained in the food product 3 and in the medical device 5 or the like, and is, advantageously, provided, at least on its face intended to be directed toward the food product 3, with at least one layer made of a material suitable for contact with the food product 3.
  • the film 6 can be, likewise, provided with at least one layer that is adapted to give it an adequate mechanical strength, so as to prevent its unwanted tearing or damage.
  • the film 6 comprises at least one inner layer 6a, made of polyamide, the function of which is to give the film 6 the required mechanical strength characteristics.
  • the film 6 comprises, on at least one of its faces or, more preferably, on both of its opposing faces, at least one layer 6b made of low-density or high-density polyethylene (LDPE or HDPE), which has adequate characteristics for contact with the food product 3 and the medical device 5.
  • LDPE low-density or high-density polyethylene
  • the film 6 further comprises at least one layer 6c made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), the function of which is to give the film 6 a suitable impermeability, and which is, conveniently, interposed between the inner layer 6a and the, or each, layer 6b.
  • PET polyethylene terephthalate
  • the inner enclosure 4 is applied around the medical device 5 by way of flowpack packaging, i.e. with wrapping of the medical device 5 or of its packaging pouch, if present, with the film 6 in a wrapping station arranged along a linear conveyor device and subsequent sealing of that film 6 at its longitudinal and transverse ends, at a sealing station arranged along the linear conveyor device, downstream of the wrapping station, so as to close the inner enclosure 4, thus obtaining, as the output from the linear conveyor device, the inner enclosure 4, completely sealed with the medical device 5 enclosed inside it.
  • flowpack packaging i.e. with wrapping of the medical device 5 or of its packaging pouch, if present, with the film 6 in a wrapping station arranged along a linear conveyor device and subsequent sealing of that film 6 at its longitudinal and transverse ends, at a sealing station arranged along the linear conveyor device, downstream of the wrapping station, so as to close the inner enclosure 4, thus obtaining, as the output from the linear conveyor device, the inner enclosure 4, completely sealed with the medical device 5 enclosed inside it.
  • the consumer can also find a package of the medical device 5 and, in particular, of condoms, suitably protected and isolated from the food product 3 by virtue of the inner enclosure 4 in which it is enclosed.
