According to the invention, the metal package is of the "two-part" type comprising a can body (12) with its end (16) and another added end (13); a prescored imprint (20) is provided at the periphery of the end (16), the latter being equipped with a grasping means (21) such a metal ring-pull.

Description

"Emballage métallique pour produit alimentaire"
L'invention se rapporte à un nouveau type d'emballage métallique à ouverture facile, pour produit alimentaire; elle concerne plus particulièrement un tel emballage de type deux pièces.
"Metal packaging for food product"
The invention relates to a new type of metal packaging with easy opening, for food products; it relates more particularly to such a two-piece type packaging.

Dans le domaine de la conserverie alimentaire, on utilise le plus souvent des boîtes dites "trois pièces" constituées d'un corps de boîte tubulaire et de deux fonds rapportés, par sertissage. In the food canning industry, so-called “three-piece” boxes are most often made up of a tubular box body and two added ends, by crimping.

Par ailleurs, les boîtes dites "deux pièces" comportant un corps de boîte embouti et un unique fond rapporté, sont appréciées par les consommateurs, notamment pour leur esthétique. De telles boftes sont fermées, suivant les cas, soit avec un fond classique serti destiné à être découpé à l'aide d'un ouvre-boSte, soit avec un fond dit "à ouverture facile" comportant une empreinte de prédécoupage permettant d'ouvrir la boite par simple arrachage, sans l'aide d'aucun outil. Furthermore, the so-called "two-piece" boxes comprising a pressed box body and a single added base, are appreciated by consumers, in particular for their aesthetics. Such boxes are closed, depending on the case, either with a classic crimped bottom intended to be cut using a can opener, or with a so-called "easy opening" bottom comprising a pre-cut imprint making it possible to open the box by simple removal, without the aid of any tool.

Le conserveur peut être amené à monter l'un ou l'autre de ces fonds sur un corps de boîte embouti. Or, le sertissage d'un fond à ouverture facile s'avère beaucoup plus délicat que celui d'un fond classique qui ne comporte pas de pré-incision au voisinage de la bordure de sertissage. En outre, sur une machine de sertissage de fond après remplissage, chaque. fois qu'on veut passer du sertissage de fonds classiques au sertissage de fonds à ouverture facile, ou réciproquement, il est nécessaire de changer complètement l'outillage, ce qui immobilise la machine pendant un temps assez long. L'invention permet principalement de résoudre cet inconvénient. The canner may have to mount one or other of these bottoms on a pressed box body. However, the crimping of an easy-opening base turns out to be much more delicate than that of a conventional base which does not have a pre-incision in the vicinity of the crimping edge. In addition, on a bottom crimping machine after filling, each. Once you want to switch from crimping conventional bottoms to crimping easily opened bottoms, or vice versa, it is necessary to completely change the tooling, which immobilizes the machine for a fairly long time. The invention mainly solves this drawback.

Par ailleurs, pour les pâtés ou produits analogues cuits et stérilisés in-situ, on a constaté que les parties grasses se localisent du côté du remplissage, de sorte que le produit alimentaire, même de haute qualité, semble peu appétissant si la boîte est ouverte du côté où elle a été remplie. Il est donc préférable que la boîte puisse s'ouvrir du côté opposé au remplissage. L'invention permet également de résoudre ce problème. In addition, for pâtés or similar products cooked and sterilized in situ, it has been found that the fatty parts are localized on the filling side, so that the food product, even of high quality, seems unappetizing if the box is opened. on the side where it was filled. It is therefore preferable that the box can open on the side opposite to the filling. The invention also makes it possible to solve this problem.

L'invention propose une nouvelle boite métallique de type "deux pièces", permettant notamment une ouverture facile à l'opposé du fond serti après remplissage. The invention provides a new metal box of the "two piece" type, allowing in particular an easy opening opposite the crimped bottom after filling.

Plus précisément, l'invention concerne un emballage métallique, caractérisé en ce qu'il consiste en un corps de boite embouti, en une seule pièce et en un unique fond rapporté à ce corps de boite, et en ce que le fond dudit corps de boite embouti est muni d'une empreinte de prédécoupage et d'un moyen de préhension. More specifically, the invention relates to a metal packaging, characterized in that it consists of a pressed box body, in one piece and in a single bottom attached to this box body, and in that the bottom of said body stamped box is provided with a pre-cut imprint and a gripping means.

Le moyen de préhension peut être classiquement un anneau métallique d'arrachage, connu en soi, fixé au fond dudit corps de boîte embouti. The gripping means can conventionally be a metal tear-off ring, known per se, fixed to the bottom of said pressed box body.

De plus, si on considère le sens de présentation normal, sur rayon, de l'emballage métallique défini cidessus, il apparaît que l'impression qui est généralement réalisée avant l'emboutissage du corps de boite, peut s'étendre sur la totalité de la partie visible de l'emballage, c'est-à-dire la surface latérale du corps de boite et son propre fond pré-incisé. I1 peut donc y avoir continuité de l'impression sur ces deux parties, ce qui ne serait pas automatiquement le cas si le fond supérieur était rapporté. D'autre part, on obtient une parfaite homogénéité des couleurs sur la totalité de la surface imprimée de la boite puisque ces couleurs proviennent d'une même impression appliquée sur un même flan de tôle, embouti ultérieurement. In addition, if we consider the normal direction of presentation, on the shelf, of the metal packaging defined above, it appears that the printing which is generally carried out before the stamping of the can body, can extend over the whole of the visible part of the packaging, i.e. the lateral surface of the box body and its own pre-cut bottom. I1 can therefore be continuity of printing on these two parts, which would not be automatically the case if the upper bottom was attached. On the other hand, perfect color consistency is obtained over the entire printed surface of the box since these colors come from the same printing applied to the same sheet blank, stamped later.

De plus, il est à noter que, compte tenu du sens de présentation de la boite, le bourrelet de sertissage inférieur du fond rapporté, facilite l'empilabilité. In addition, it should be noted that, given the direction of presentation of the box, the lower crimping bead of the added base, facilitates stackability.

Enfin, il apparaît clairement que pour le cas particulier de produits alimentaires tels que des pâtés ou produits analogues cuits et stérilisés in-situ, l'emballage métallique tel que défini ci-dessus permet une ouverture du côté opposé à celui où se sont localisées les parties grasses. Finally, it clearly appears that for the particular case of food products such as pâtés or similar products cooked and sterilized in situ, the metal packaging as defined above allows opening on the opposite side to that where the fatty parts.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lumière de la description qui va suivre, d'un emballage métallique conforme à son principe, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en référence au dessin annexé dans lequel:
- la figure unique représente un emballage métallique muni du perfectionnement selon l'invention.
The invention will be better understood in the light of the description which follows, of a metallic packaging conforming to its principle, given solely by way of example and made with reference to the appended drawing in which:
- The single figure represents a metal package provided with the improvement according to the invention.

Sur le dessin, on a représenté un emballage métallique 11, globalement cylindrique et constitué principalement de l'assemblage d'un corps de boite embouti 12 et d'un unique fond rapporté 13. Le fond 13 est destiné à venir obturer de façon étanche, au moyen d'un sertissage 14, l'ouverture unique du corps de boite par laquelle on effectue le remplissage du produit alimentaire, par exemple ici, un pâté ou analogue. Le corps de boite embouti 12 se compose ici d'une partie cylindrique tubulaire 15 et d'un fond 16, non rapporté. L'emboutissage de conformation du corps de boite 12 est tel qu'il ménage un léger rétreint 18 entre la partie cylindrique 15 et le fond 16 non rapporté. Ce rétreint permet à l'emballage d'être empilable puisqu'il est dimensionné et conformé pour accueillir le bourrelet de sertissage d'un autre emballage semblable. In the drawing, there is shown a metallic packaging 11, generally cylindrical and consisting mainly of the assembly of a pressed box body 12 and a single added bottom 13. The bottom 13 is intended to seal off, by means of crimping 14, the single opening of the box body through which the filling of the food product is carried out, for example here, a pâté or the like. The pressed box body 12 here consists of a tubular cylindrical part 15 and a bottom 16, not attached. The stamping of conformation of the box body 12 is such that it provides a slight constriction 18 between the cylindrical part 15 and the bottom 16 not attached. This constriction allows the packaging to be stackable since it is dimensioned and shaped to accommodate the crimping bead of another similar packaging.

Selon l'invention, le fond 16 du corps de boite embouti est muni d'une empreinte de prédécoupage 20, ici périphérique et d'un moyen de préhension 21. Dans l'exemple représenté, le moyen de préhension est un anneau métallique d'arrachage, connu en soi, fixé par un rivet 22 au fond 16. According to the invention, the bottom 16 of the pressed box body is provided with a pre-cut imprint 20, here peripheral and with a gripping means 21. In the example shown, the gripping means is a metal ring of lifting, known per se, fixed by a rivet 22 at the bottom 16.

Comme mentionné précédemment, l'emballage métallique qui vient d'être décrit est particulièrement recommandé pour des pâtés cuits et stérilisés in-situ. Le consommateur bénéficie de tous les avantages d'un emballage métallique à ouverture facile, tandis que les graisses et autres parties peu appétissantes ne sont pas apparentes à l'ouverture de la boite. En outre, à l'ouverture, l'utilisateur bénéficie d'une meilleure prise sur le corps de boite en raison de la présence du bourrelet de sertissage en partie basse. Cet avantage est particulièrement sensible pour les boites de faible hauteur.  As mentioned above, the metal packaging which has just been described is particularly recommended for cooked and sterilized pâtés in situ. The consumer benefits from all the advantages of an easy-opening metal packaging, while greases and other unappetizing parts are not visible when the box is opened. In addition, upon opening, the user benefits from a better grip on the box body due to the presence of the crimping bead in the lower part. This advantage is particularly noticeable for boxes of low height.
