Description

EMBALLAGE ISOTHERME
DESCRIPTION
La presente invention a pour objet un emballage isotherme apte à conserver des denrées pendant plusieurs jours à une température differant de la température ambiante de t'ordre d'une cinquantaine de degrés Celsius tout en permettant une manutention sûre et aisée.
INSULATED PACKAGING
DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to an insulated package capable of storing foodstuffs for several days at a temperature different from ambient temperature of around fifty degrees Celsius while allowing safe and easy handling.

Les emballages isothermes se rapprochant le plus de l'objet de l'invention comprennent une botte de mousse isolante telle que le polystyrène expansé dans l'ouverture de laquelle un couvercle de meme matériau s'embofte. Ils ne sont toutefois pas satisfaisants dans la mesure ou ils doivent être placés dans un conteneur externe pour se prémunir contre une ouverture accidentelle du couvercle et Les protéger quelque peu contre les chocs au cours de leur transport, d'autant plus que leur matériau est généralement mou et friable car aggloméré à partir de billes de gros diamètre (pLusieurs millimètres). The insulated packaging which most closely resembles the subject of the invention comprises a bundle of insulating foam such as expanded polystyrene in the opening of which a cover of the same material is encased. They are however not satisfactory insofar as they must be placed in an external container to protect against an accidental opening of the cover and to protect them somewhat against impacts during their transport, especially since their material is generally soft and brittle because agglomerated from large diameter beads (several millimeters).

De tels conteneurs, dans la pratique des caisses de métal ou de carton ondulé, sont forcément prévus avec un jeu non négligeable de manière à permettre l'introduction ou l'extraction aisée de la botte isotherme. Il faut alors combler ce jeu à l'aide de billes, de fragments ou de matelas de mousse qui grèvent le prix total de l'emballage tout en le rendant plus compliqué. Such containers, in the practice of cases of metal or corrugated cardboard, are necessarily provided with a significant clearance so as to allow the easy introduction or extraction of the insulated boot. It is then necessary to fill this game with balls, fragments or foam mattresses which increase the total price of the packaging while making it more complicated.

La présente invention remédie à ces inconvénients et offre une structure d'emballage isotherme monobloc -à l'exception d'un couvercle qui s'emboîte dans le reste de L'emballage- directement utilisable dans des conditions concrètes de manutention et de transport. The present invention overcomes these drawbacks and offers a one-piece isothermal packaging structure - with the exception of a cover which fits into the rest of the packaging - directly usable under concrete conditions of handling and transport.

Elle concerne plus explicitement un emballage isotherme constitué d'une botte et d'un couvercle en matériau isolant thermique s'embortant de manière à délimiter un volume clos, caractérisé en ce qu'une enveloppe permettant la manutention et
le transport de l'emballage adhère sur La surface extérieure de
la boite et se prolonge en rabats orientables de façon à tour à tour recouvrir le couvercle embolté dans la botte ou à le dégager. De préférence, la bofte et le couvercle sont en mousse de polyuréthane et l'enveloppe en carton ondulé.
It relates more explicitly to an insulated package consisting of a boot and a cover made of thermally insulating material which is self-supporting so as to delimit an enclosed volume, characterized in that an envelope allowing handling and
the transport of the packaging adheres to the outer surface of
the box and is extended in orientable flaps so as to cover the embolized cover in the boot in turn or to release it. Preferably, the box and the cover are made of polyurethane foam and the envelope of corrugated cardboard.

On se réfère à présent à la figure unique donnée en annexe à titre non Limitatif et représentant, en perspective avec
coupe partielle, une réalisation possible de l'invention.
We now refer to the single figure given in the appendix without limitation and representing, in perspective with
partial section, a possible embodiment of the invention.

Cette figure représente un emballage isotherme de forme grossièrement cubique. Il se compose de trois parties principales : une botte 1, un couvercle 2 et une enveloppe 3. Le couvercle 2 s'emporte dans la botte 1 de manière à délimiter un volume clos dans lequel on dispose la matière, notamment organique, que l'on souhaite maintenir à une température différente de l'ambiante. This figure represents a roughly cubic shape insulated packaging. It consists of three main parts: a boot 1, a cover 2 and an envelope 3. The cover 2 is carried away in the boot 1 so as to delimit an enclosed volume in which the material, in particular organic material, which the we want to maintain a temperature different from the ambient.

Une source thermique, telle que la glace carbonique dans le cas d'une conservation par le froid, peut également être introduite dans ce volume clos. A thermal source, such as dry ice in the case of cold storage, can also be introduced into this closed volume.

Selon une réalisation préférée de l'invention, des surfaces 8 de la boite 1 et 9 du couvercle 2 assurent le maintien de L'emboftement par un assemblage à jeu légèrement négatif ; la hauteur de ces surfaces 8 et 9 est inférieure à l'épaisseur totale du couvercle 2, et l'isolation est complétée par un contact entre deux surfaces en tronc de pyramide 10 et 11. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, surfaces 8 of the box 1 and 9 of the cover 2 maintain the fitting by a slightly negative clearance assembly; the height of these surfaces 8 and 9 is less than the total thickness of the cover 2, and the insulation is completed by contact between two surfaces in the trunk of a pyramid 10 and 11.

Le matériau de la botte 1 et du couvercle 2 peut être de type conventionnel. On a cependant constaté que la mousse de polyuréthane, avec une densité proche de 35 g/litre, peut être préconisée. Ce matériau a une structure granulaire fine qui lui confére de bonnes propriétés mécaniques. En outre, il peut être facilement moule sur du carton, comme on va le voir. The material of the boot 1 and the cover 2 can be of the conventional type. However, it has been found that polyurethane foam, with a density close to 35 g / liter, can be recommended. This material has a fine granular structure which gives it good mechanical properties. In addition, it can be easily molded on cardboard, as we will see.

La botte 1 a été en effet moulée dans l'enveloppe 3 et y adhère parfaitement, sans collage et sur toute la surface de contact. Cette enveloppe 3 peut être en carton ondulé et comprendre, de l'intéri-eur vers l'extérieur, une couche de carton 15, une structure ondulée de carton 17, une couche de polyéthylène 18 et une couche de carton 16. Un tel matériau sandwich exerce une action protectrice en amortissant les chocs grace à la structure 17 ; la couche de polyéthylène 18 apporte quant à elle une imperméabilisation et une resistance à la déchirure plus grande. The boot 1 has in fact been molded in the envelope 3 and adheres thereto perfectly, without bonding and over the entire contact surface. This envelope 3 may be made of corrugated cardboard and comprise, from the interior to the outside, a layer of cardboard 15, a corrugated structure of cardboard 17, a layer of polyethylene 18 and a layer of cardboard 16. Such a material sandwich exerts a protective action by absorbing shocks thanks to the structure 17; the layer of polyethylene 18 provides waterproofing and greater tear resistance.

Des rabats 19 permettent de proteger Le couvercle 2 lors de la manutention et du transport de l'emballage. Flaps 19 protect the cover 2 during handling and transport of the packaging.

L'invention offre donc un emballage isotherme robuste, sûr et economique, intéressant en particulier pour le transport de matériaux fragiles ou polluants aussi bien biologiques, alimentaires, que radioactifs si une protection contre les radiations, non décrite ici, a été ajoutée : la boite et le couvercle apportent une bonne rigidité d'ensemble grâce à leur épaisseur et leur densité alors que l'enveloppe 3 assure la résistance superficielle de ltensemble et autorise, par exemple, leur empilement dans un véhicule ou un entrepôt.  The invention therefore offers a robust, safe and economical isothermal packaging, particularly interesting for the transport of fragile or polluting materials both biological, food, and radioactive if protection against radiation, not described here, has been added: the box and the cover provide good overall rigidity thanks to their thickness and density while the casing 3 ensures the surface resistance of the assembly and allows, for example, their stacking in a vehicle or a warehouse.
