Abstract

A holder for glass ampoules to be filled under vacuum is made in the form of an open-topped box of which at least two opposing sides are convergent towards the top so that the rim of the box is a sprung fit against a load of ampoules to hold them in place. For holders for crystallisation purposes, the holder is pref. made from a panel of expanded propylene copolymer produced as extruded sheet and suitably creased, folded and welded to stabilise the shape and seal the cut edges of the panel. The holder may have a polygonal or circular base, to resemble a truncated pyramid or cone, with low level openings to drain away any superficial condensate.

Description

La présente invention est relative à un cristallisoir pour ampoules destinées à être remplies sous vide. On sait que de tels cristallisoirs sont constitués par des conditionnements se présentant en général sous la forme de récipients en matière plastique recevant les ampoules scellées d'un seul coté, la pointe non scellée en haut, lesdites ampoules subissant, dans ce cristallisoir, les opérations de remplissage et de passage à l'autoclave. Les ampoules sont ensuite scellées, puis leur étanchéité est contrôlée, et elles sont enfin livrées aux utilisateurs en restant conditionnées dans ce cristallisoir. The present invention relates to a crystallizer for ampoules intended to be filled under vacuum. It is known that such crystallizers consist of packaging generally in the form of plastic containers receiving the sealed ampoules on one side, the unsealed tip at the top, said ampoules undergoing, in this crystallizer, the operations filling and autoclaving. The bulbs are then sealed, then their tightness is checked, and they are finally delivered to users while being conditioned in this crystallizer.

A l'heure actuelle, on utilise des cristallisoirs en matière plastique, en polypropylène de préférence, de forme parallélépipédique, dans lesquels les ampoules sont placées les unes à côté des autres, des moyens étant prévus pour caler les ampoules dans le cristallisoir. At the present time, crystallizers made of plastic, preferably polypropylene, of parallelepiped shape are used, in which the bulbs are placed one next to the other, means being provided for wedging the bulbs in the crystallizer.

Cette invention vise un nouveau type de cristallisoir, du type consommable, réalisé en copolymère de polypropylène extrudé, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte au moins deux côtés inclinés sur la verticale, ce qui permet d'obtenir un calage des ampoules à la partie supérieure du cristallisoir. This invention relates to a new type of crystallizer, of the consumable type, produced from extruded polypropylene copolymer, characterized in that it comprises at least two sides inclined on the vertical, which makes it possible to wedge the bulbs at the top. of the crystallizer.

Selon une autre caractéristique de cette invention, le cristallisoir est réalisé, par pliage et soudure aux ultrasons, à partir d'un plan prédécoupé obtenu depuis une feuille de copolymère de propylène extrudé comportant des alvéoles, les alvéoles débouchant sur les arêtes étant obturées par soudure par ultrasons. According to another characteristic of this invention, the crystallizer is produced, by folding and ultrasonic welding, from a precut plane obtained from a sheet of extruded propylene copolymer comprising cells, the cells opening onto the edges being closed by welding by ultrasound.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de cette invention ressortiront de la description faite ci-après, en référence au dessin annexé, qui en illustre un exemple de réalisation non limitatif. Sur le dessin
- la Figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'un cristallisoir selon l'invention; ; et,
- la Figure 2 est une vue en élévation, en coupe selon 2-2 de la
Figure 1.Other characteristics and advantages of this invention will emerge from the description given below, with reference to the appended drawing, which illustrates a non-limiting example of embodiment. On the drawing
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a crystallizer according to the invention; ; and,
- Figure 2 is an elevational view, in section on 2-2 of the
Figure 1.

En se référant au dessin, on voit que le cristallisoir selon cette invention se présente sous la forme d'une boite ouverte à sa partie supérieure et comportant au moins deux côtés opposés 10-12 inclinés sur la verticale. Referring to the drawing, it can be seen that the crystallizer according to this invention is in the form of a box open at its upper part and comprising at least two opposite sides 10-12 inclined on the vertical.

Comme connu, on prévoit des ouvertures telles que 14, ménagées à la base du cristallisoir pour permettre l'évacuation de l'eau après passage à l'étuve. As known, openings such as 14 are provided, formed at the base of the crystallizer to allow the evacuation of water after passage through the oven.

Selon cette invention, le cristallisoir est réalisé à partir d'une feuille d'un copolymère de polypropylène extrudé du type "carton ondulé", dans laquelle on découpe un flan qui, par pliage et soudure aux ultrasons, permet d'obtenir la forme visible sur la Figure 1 Sur cette Figure, on voit en 18 les rabats du flan soudés par ultrasons, et les alvéoles des arêtes 20, obturées de la même façon. According to this invention, the crystallizer is produced from a sheet of an extruded polypropylene copolymer of the “corrugated cardboard” type, in which a blank is cut which, by folding and ultrasonic welding, makes it possible to obtain the visible shape. in Figure 1 In this Figure, we see at 18 the flaps of the blank welded by ultrasound, and the cells of the edges 20, closed in the same way.

La caractéristique qui consiste à incliner les cotes opposés 10-12 (Figure 2) assure le calage des ampoules 1 6 , sans qu'il soit nécessaire de prévoir d'autres moyens dans ce but. The characteristic which consists in tilting the opposite dimensions 10-12 (Figure 2) ensures the setting of the bulbs 1 6, without it being necessary to provide other means for this purpose.

Bien entendu, on peut, sans sortir du cadre de cette invention réaliser un cristallisoir comportant quatre cotés inclinés sur la verticale, c'està-dire un cristallisoir en forme de tronc de cône.  Of course, it is possible, without departing from the scope of this invention, to produce a crystallizer comprising four sides inclined on the vertical, that is to say a crystallizer in the form of a truncated cone.
