EASY OPENING, MANUFACTURING METHOD AND
INSTALLATION FOR IMPLEMENTING SAID PROCESS.
La présente invention concerne des conditionnements formés par un film replié et scellé pour former un sachet. The present invention relates to packages formed by a film folded and sealed to form a sachet.
Ces conditionnements sont très couramment employés dans l'emballage de produits alimentaires, ainsi que dans un grand nombre d'autres domaines. These packages are very commonly used in the packaging of food products, as well as in a large number of other fields.
Ils sont généralement réalisés par scellage d'un film en matière plastique. Pour faciliter l'ouverture de ces conditionnements, on a proposé dans l'art antérieur différentes solutions. They are generally made by sealing a plastic film. To facilitate the opening of these packages, various solutions have been proposed in the prior art.
Une première solution consiste à prévoir une amorce de rupture dans la zone de scellage. Dans cette zone, les deux épaisseurs du film sont superposées et thermosoudées. L'amorce de rupture fournit normalement une direction préférentielle de rupture du film, et devrait permettre la déchirure rectiligne du film en arrière de cette amorce de rupture. I1 apparaît à l'usage que cette solution n'est pas totalement satisfaisante car si la traction est exercée en biais, la déchirure ne s'effectue pas correctement. A first solution consists in providing a breakout initiator in the sealing zone. In this area, the two thicknesses of the film are superimposed and heat sealed. The rupture initiator normally provides a preferred direction of rupture of the film, and should allow for the rectilinear tearing of the film behind this rupture initiator. It appears in use that this solution is not completely satisfactory because if the traction is exerted at an angle, the tear is not carried out correctly.
Une autre solution consiste à réaliser des microperforations le long de la ligne de déchirure. Cette solution n'est bien sur pas adaptée à des conditionnements étanches. Another solution is to carry out microperforations along the tear line. This solution is of course not suitable for airtight packaging.
Une autre solution encore consiste à coller le long de la ligne de déchirure une bande d'arrachage. Cette solution est relativement coûteuse et n'est possible qu'avec des paquets rectangulaires, mais pas pour des sachets. Yet another solution is to glue a tear strip along the tear line. This solution is relatively expensive and is only possible with rectangular packages, but not for sachets.
Pour remédier aux inconvénients de l'art antérieur, l'invention concerne un conditionnement étant muni d'un moyen pour faciliter l'ouverture formé par une ligne de rupture où le film présente une épaisseur réduite, ladite zone s'étendant sensiblement le long de la zone d'ouverture et présentant une largeur comprise entre 0,5 et 2 millimètres. To remedy the drawbacks of the prior art, the invention relates to a packaging being provided with means for facilitating the opening formed by a breaking line where the film has a reduced thickness, said zone extending substantially along the opening area and having a width of between 0.5 and 2 millimeters.
Cette ligne de rupture donne un chemin privilégié pour la déchirure du film, et permet de réaliser une ouverture nette en exerçant une traction et un effort de cisaillement de part et d'autre de cette ligne. This rupture line gives a preferred path for the tearing of the film, and makes it possible to achieve a clean opening by exerting a traction and a shearing force on either side of this line.
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, la ligne de rupture est disposée à une faible distance d'une zone de scellage, de l'ordre de quelques millimètres. According to a preferred embodiment, the rupture line is disposed at a short distance from a sealing zone, of the order of a few millimeters.
Selon une variante de réalisation, le paquet présente deux lignes de rupture sensiblement parallèles, délimitant entre elles une bande d'arrachage. Une amorce de rupture prévue dans le prolongement de chacune des lignes de rupture, au niveau du bord du paquet. According to an alternative embodiment, the package has two substantially parallel breaking lines, delimiting between them a tear strip. A rupture leader provided in the extension of each of the rupture lines, at the edge of the package.
La zone de scellage est sensiblement plus résistante que le reste du sachet, ce qui facilite la préhension et l'exercice de la traction pour provoquer l'ouverture partielle et nette. Par ailleurs, la zone de scellage restante permet de replier la partie ouverte en maintenant les lèvres de l'ouverture bords à bords, ce qui permettra une refermeture plus facile qu'avec des sachets ouverts dans leur totalité. Les systèmes de fermeture existants : étiquette adhésive et autres solutions, ne pouvant être appliqués que sur des sachets non déchirés lors de l'ouverture, ils ne sont posés aujourd'hui que sur des sachets non scellés. The sealing area is significantly more resistant than the rest of the sachet, which facilitates gripping and the exercise of traction to cause partial and clean opening. In addition, the remaining sealing zone allows the open part to be folded in while keeping the lips of the opening edge to edge, which will allow easier reclosing than with sachets fully open. Existing closure systems: adhesive label and other solutions, which can only be applied to sachets that are not torn during opening, they are only installed today on unsealed sachets.
Avantageusement, la ligne de rupture est formée par une gorge dont la profondeur est comprise entre 1/3 et 2/3 de l'épaisseur du film. Advantageously, the rupture line is formed by a groove whose depth is between 1/3 and 2/3 of the thickness of the film.
Selon une variante de mise en oeuvre particulière, le film est fermé en forme de tube par le scellage de la face intérieure d'une bande latérale sur la face intérieure de la bande latérale opposée, la ligne de rupture s'étendant perpendiculairement à la zone de scellage et débutant du coté de la partie recouvrante du film. According to a particular implementation variant, the film is closed in the form of a tube by sealing the inner face of a side strip on the inside face of the opposite side strip, the rupture line extending perpendicular to the area. sealing and starting on the side of the covering part of the film.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, la ligne de rupture s'étend jusqu'à la zone de scellage médiane. La position de l'arête de scellage détermine la longueur de l'ouverture. According to a particular embodiment, the rupture line extends to the central sealing zone. The position of the sealing edge determines the length of the opening.
L'invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication d'un conditionnement constitué d'un film replié et scellé, caractérisé en ce que l'on réalise sur le film une ligne de rupture par affaiblissement de l'épaisseur. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a packaging consisting of a folded and sealed film, characterized in that a rupture line is produced on the film by weakening the thickness.
Selon une première variante de mise en oeuvre, l'affaiblissement du film pour la formation de la ligne de rupture est réalisée par fluage de la matière à l'aide d'une matrice chauffée non tranchante. According to a first variant of implementation, the weakening of the film for the formation of the rupture line is carried out by creep of the material using a heated non-cutting matrix.
Avantageusement, la matrice comporte une résistance de chauffage par impulsion chauffant la matrice jusqu'à une température sensiblement égale à la température nominale de scellage, la matrice étant appliqué contre le film avec une pression équivalente à la pression nominale de scellage. Advantageously, the matrix includes a pulse heating resistor heating the matrix to a temperature substantially equal to the nominal sealing temperature, the matrix being applied against the film with a pressure equivalent to the nominal sealing pressure.
Selon une deuxième variante de mise en oeuvre, l'affaiblissement du film pour la formation de la ligne de rupture est réalisée par fluage de la matière à l'aide d'une matrice non tranchante excitée par une source d'ultrasons. According to a second implementation variant, the weakening of the film for the formation of the breaking line is carried out by creep of the material using a non-sharp matrix excited by a source of ultrasound.
L'invention concerne encore une installation pour la fabrication de conditionnement en forme de sachet, du type comportant des moyens pour l'alimentation avec un film, des moyens conformateurs pour conférer au film une forme tubulaire et des pinces de scellage susceptibles d'être appliquées sur le film sortant du conformateur, caractérisé en ce qu'elle comporte en outre des moyens d'affaiblissement pour la réalisation d'au moins une ligne de rupture par affaiblissement de l'épaisseur du film. The invention also relates to an installation for manufacturing sachet-shaped packaging, of the type comprising means for feeding with a film, shaping means for giving the film a tubular shape and sealing pliers capable of being applied. on the film leaving the former, characterized in that it further comprises weakening means for producing at least one breaking line by weakening the thickness of the film.
Avantageusement, les moyens d'affaiblissement sont prévus sur les pinces de scellage. Advantageously, the weakening means are provided on the sealing pliers.

La figure 1 représente un exemple non limitatif d'un premier exemple de réalisation. FIG. 1 represents a nonlimiting example of a first exemplary embodiment.
Le sachet est formé d'un film de matière plastique simple ou composite, par exemple du polyéthylène extrudé ou du polypropylène. I1 est replié pour former un tube fermé à ses deux extrémités par des zones scellées (1, 2). Les deux bandes latérales du film se recouvrent, face intérieure contre face intérieure, pour former une arête de scellage longitudinale (3). Le film présente une zone de rupture (4) s'étendant à 4 millimètres du bord intérieur de la zone scellée (1), jusqu'à l'arête de scellage (3). The sachet is formed from a film of simple or composite plastic material, for example extruded polyethylene or polypropylene. I1 is folded back to form a tube closed at both ends by sealed areas (1, 2). The two lateral strips of the film overlap, inside face against inside face, to form a longitudinal sealing edge (3). The film has a rupture zone (4) extending 4 millimeters from the inner edge of the sealed zone (1), up to the sealing edge (3).
Cette ligne de rupture présente une largeur de l'ordre de 0,8 millimètres. Elle correspond à une rainure formée dans l'épaisseur du film, sur une moitié environ de l'épaisseur du film. This rupture line has a width of the order of 0.8 millimeters. It corresponds to a groove formed in the thickness of the film, over about half of the thickness of the film.
La figure 2 représente une vue selon un plan de coupe AA'. Le film est scellé à ses extrémités par soudure à chaud ou par ultrasons, de façon connue dans l'art antérieur. La zone de scellage (1) s'étend sur quelques millimètres. Le film présente une rainure (4) pouvant être réalisée sur la face interne ou sur la face externe. La rainure (4) est séparée de la zone de scellage (1) par une zone (5) d'une largeur de quelques millimètres. La rainure (4) est formée à l'aide d'une matrice non tranchante chauffée par impulsion jusqu'à la température nominale de scellage du film, ou excitée par des ultrasons, ou par toute autre solution régulant en permanence la température pour avoir la déformation du film à l'endroit choisi sans modification du reste de la bande. La matière composant le film flue légèrement au niveau de la ligne de rupture (1), et il se produit un réaménagement moléculaire modifiant la résistance du film au niveau de cette ligne. Figure 2 shows a view along a section plane AA '. The film is sealed at its ends by heat welding or by ultrasound, in a manner known in the prior art. The sealing area (1) extends over a few millimeters. The film has a groove (4) which can be produced on the internal face or on the external face. The groove (4) is separated from the sealing area (1) by an area (5) with a width of a few millimeters. The groove (4) is formed using a non-cutting die heated by impulse to the nominal sealing temperature of the film, or excited by ultrasound, or by any other solution continuously regulating the temperature to have the deformation of the film at the chosen location without modification of the rest of the strip. The material composing the film slightly creeps at the breaking line (1), and a molecular rearrangement takes place which modifies the resistance of the film at this line.
La figure 3 représente une vue selon un plan de coupe AA', pour une réalisation mettant en oeuvre des films épais. Dans ce cas, une deuxième rainure (6) est pratiquée dans le fond de la première rainure (7). Le rayon de courbure de la deuxième rainure (6) est inférieure au rayon de courbure de la première rainure (7). FIG. 3 shows a view along a section plane AA ′, for an embodiment using thick films. In this case, a second groove (6) is made in the bottom of the first groove (7). The radius of curvature of the second groove (6) is less than the radius of curvature of the first groove (7).
La figure 4 représente une vue selon un plan de coupe BB' . La zone de raccordement des deux extrémités latérales du film forme une arête de scellage (3) présentant une double épaisseur. La face interne (8) de la partie recouvrante (9) du film est assemblée par thermosoudage avec la face interne (10) de la partie recouverte (11). La partie recouverte (11) est repliée sur 1800 pour permettre la formation d'un sachet plat. Figure 4 shows a view along a section plane BB '. The connection zone of the two lateral ends of the film forms a sealing edge (3) having a double thickness. The internal face (8) of the covering part (9) of the film is assembled by heat sealing with the internal face (10) of the covered part (11). The covered part (11) is folded over 1800 to allow the formation of a flat bag.
La ligne de rupture s'étend du coté de l'extrémité recouvrante (9) de façon à éviter une inversion de la direction de rupture. La ligne de rupture (4) s'étend au moins jusqu'à l'arête de scellage. The breaking line extends from the side of the covering end (9) so as to avoid reversing the breaking direction. The rupture line (4) extends at least as far as the sealing edge.
La figure 5 représente une vue du film avant sa mise en forme. La ligne de rupture (4) s'étend dans une zone médiane, pouvant éventuellement aller jusqu'au bord de la partie recouvrante (9). FIG. 5 represents a view of the film before it is shaped. The rupture line (4) extends in a central region, possibly extending to the edge of the covering part (9).
La figure 6 représente une vue de face d'un sachet selon un deuxième exemple de réalisation de l'invention. Dans ce mode de réalisation, la ligne de rupture (13) présente une forme en arc de cercle, de façon à former un bec verseur refermable par repliement de la zone scellée (1) après usage. FIG. 6 represents a front view of a sachet according to a second embodiment of the invention. In this embodiment, the breaking line (13) has a shape in an arc of a circle, so as to form a spout which can be closed by folding the sealed area (1) after use.
La figure 7 représente une vue de face d'un sachet selon un troisième exemple de réalisation de l'invention. Selon une variante de réalisation, le sachet présente une amorce de rupture (20) prévue sur le bord du sachet, éventuellement au niveau d'une zone de scellage. FIG. 7 represents a front view of a sachet according to a third embodiment of the invention. According to an alternative embodiment, the bag has a rupture initiator (20) provided on the edge of the bag, possibly at a sealing zone.
Cette amorce de rupture (20) est constituée par une incision en forme de "V" découpée sur le bord du sachet.This breaking point (20) is constituted by an incision in the shape of a "V" cut out on the edge of the sachet.
Elle favorise le démarrage du déchirement le long de la ligne de rupture (4) qui prolonge cette amorce de rupture (20).It promotes the start of the tearing along the line of rupture (4) which extends this initiation of rupture (20).
Dans l'exemple décrit en figure 8, la ligne de rupture (4) continue sur la bande de scellage (3). Cette bande de scellage est repliée dans la direction de traction représentée par la flèche "F". Ce mode de réalisation est adapté à une ouverture totale du sachet. In the example described in FIG. 8, the rupture line (4) continues on the sealing strip (3). This sealing strip is folded in the direction of traction represented by the arrow "F". This embodiment is suitable for fully opening the sachet.
Si une ouverture partielle seulement est souhaitée, la ligne de rupture (4) est prévue du coté opposé au repliement de la bande de scellage (3). Dans ce cas, la déchirure "butte" sur le repliement, et bloque la poursuite de la rupture rectiligne, pour traverser la zone de scellage de fermeture du sachet. If only partial opening is desired, the rupture line (4) is provided on the side opposite to the folding of the sealing strip (3). In this case, the tear "knocks" on the folding, and blocks the continuation of the rectilinear rupture, to cross the sealing zone of closure of the sachet.
La figure 9 représente une autre variante de sachet constitué par un complexe réalisé avec des matériaux de type polyester contrecollé avec du polypropylène ou du polyéthylène. Il est alors souhaitable d'avoir une amorce de déchirure pour démarrer la rupture du film. FIG. 9 represents another variant of a sachet constituted by a complex produced with polyester type materials laminated with polypropylene or polyethylene. It is then desirable to have a tear primer to start the rupture of the film.
L'amorce mécanique se fera au dessus du scellage pour le traverser, et venir perpendiculairement rejoindre la zone de rupture horizontale du film PE ou PP. The mechanical primer will be made above the seal to pass through it, and come perpendicularly to join the horizontal rupture zone of the PE or PP film.
Cette amorce d'ouverture peut également être obtenue par fragilisation du polyester par chauffage et pression, pour obtenir l'allongement et la déformation du film, ce qui diminuera l'épaisseur et la résistance mécanique du polyester. Lors de l'ouverture, un cisaillement du film entraînera une rupture et comme dans le cas décrit en figure 8, on pourra obtenir une ouverture totale. This opening primer can also be obtained by embrittlement of the polyester by heating and pressure, in order to obtain the elongation and the deformation of the film, which will reduce the thickness and the mechanical strength of the polyester. During the opening, a shearing of the film will cause a rupture and as in the case described in FIG. 8, it will be possible to obtain a total opening.
Dans tous les cas, une fois l'amorce faite, le polyester n'a plus aucune résistance mécanique. La ligne de rupture obtenue sera celle du film PE ou PP qui pourra jouer pleinement son rôle de guide. La traction exercée pour ouvrir se portera sur la partie affaiblie provoquant l'allongement, puis la rupture du film plastique, le polyester suivant ce guidage. In all cases, once the primer has been made, the polyester no longer has any mechanical resistance. The breaking line obtained will be that of the PE or PP film which can fully play its role of guide. The traction exerted to open will be carried on the weakened part causing the elongation, then the rupture of the plastic film, the polyester following this guidance.
L'invention est décrite dans ce qui précède à titre d'exemple non limitatif. Il est bien entendu que l'Homme du Métier sera à même de réaliser différentes variantes sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. The invention is described in the foregoing by way of nonlimiting example. It is understood that the skilled person will be able to produce different variants without departing from the scope of the invention.
