Abstract

The device has a box provided with a lid that is cut at its front side for allowing the introduction of documents e.g. paper ream. A pair of tongues is created on each side of upper edge of the box. A pair of grooves is made on each side of the lower edge of the box. The two tongues, while sliding in the grooves of another box, allows the racks to be stacked on the other box.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif qui permet la réalisation de casiers à courrier à partir de l'emballage servant à conditionner les ramettes de papier. The present invention relates to a device which allows the creation of letter boxes from the packaging used to condition the reams of paper.

Les casiers à courrier sont des casiers que l'on empile les uns sur les autres et 5 dans lesquels on classe des documents de format standard A4. On leur donne aussi le nom de trieurs ou de corbeille à courrier. Mail boxes are boxes that are stacked on top of each other and 5 in which documents of standard A4 size are classified. They are also given the name of sorters or letter trays.

Les ramettes de papier sont souvent conditionnées par lot de cinq dans des boîtes en carton. Ces boîtes sont munies d'un couvercle servant à protéger le 10 papier. Reams of paper are often packaged in sets of five in cardboard boxes. These boxes are provided with a cover for protecting the paper.

Ces casiers à courrier sont fabriqués avec les boites servant d'emballage aux ramettes de papier. Celles ci conviennent parfaitement puisqu'elles ont le même format que les casiers à courrier. C'est avec les couvercles de boîtes de 15 ramettes qu'il est le plus facile de confectionner les casiers. Mais on peut aussi en fabriquer avec d'autres bottes que celles destinées aux ramettes. On peut aussi en fabriquer avec des fonds de boîte. These letter boxes are made with the boxes used for packaging the paper reams. These are perfectly suitable since they have the same format as the letter boxes. It is with the lids of boxes of 15 reams that it is easiest to make the lockers. But it can also be made with boots other than those intended for reams. It can also be made with box bottoms.

L'intérêt de cette invention est donc de fournir à l'utilisateur des casiers à 20 courrier sans qu'il soit utile d'en acheter puisque grâce à ce procédé, le casier est fourni par l'emballage lui-même sans ajout de matière et donc sans cot supplémentaire pour la fabrication du conditionnement. The advantage of this invention is therefore to provide the user with 20 mail boxes without the need to buy them since, thanks to this process, the box is supplied by the packaging itself without adding any material. and therefore without additional cost for the manufacture of the packaging.

Ces couvercles sont confectionnés de telle façon qu'avec les lignes d'amorce de 25 rupture, les découpes, les prédécoupes, les rainures et les pliures, ou de tout principe connu d'assemblage, il est très facile de procéder au montage des casiers sans qu'une notice soit nécessaire. These covers are made in such a way that with the breaking initiation lines, the cuts, the precuts, the grooves and the folds, or by any known principle of assembly, it is very easy to mount the racks without a notice being necessary.

Cette invention se situe dans le domaine de la conception et de la fabrication des 30 emballages qui peuvent servir à d'autres fins lorsqu'ils ont été vidés de leur contenu. Bien que le matériau envisagé soit le carton, on peut fabriquer ces casiers à courrier à partir de n'importe quel matériau souple en feuille, tel que le plastique. Quelques modifications sur les couvercles traditionnels suffisent à créer l'objet innovant. La face avant du couvercle est découpée pour permettre l'introduction des documents. Elle peut l'être totalement ou en partie seulement selon l'esthétique que l'on souhaite obtenir. (FIGURE 1) Sur chaque côté de la boîte, sur le rebord supérieur, on aura créé deux languettes. (L) D)e même, sur chaque côté de la botte mais cette fois sur le rebord inférieur, on aura fait deux rainures. (R) Les deux languettes d'une bote, en se glissant dans les rainures d'une autre boite, permettent d'empiler les casiers les uns sur les autres. (FIGURE 2) On peut créer des rainures plus longues que la taille des languettes si on souhaite pouvoir décaler les casiers en escalier. Ainsi, il est plus facile d'apercevoir les documents et de les saisir. (FIGURE 3) La face arrière ne nécessite aucune transformation particulière mais elle peut 20 aussi être découpée dans le même but d'esthétique. This invention is in the field of design and manufacture of packages which can be used for other purposes when they have been emptied of their contents. Although the material envisaged is cardboard, these mail boxes can be made from any flexible sheet material, such as plastic. A few modifications on the traditional covers are enough to create the innovative object. The front face of the cover is cut to allow the introduction of documents. It can be totally or only partially depending on the aesthetics that one wishes to obtain. (FIGURE 1) On each side of the box, on the upper edge, we will have created two tabs. (L) D) e same, on each side of the boot but this time on the lower edge, we will have made two grooves. (R) The two tabs of a box, by sliding into the grooves of another box, allow the racks to be stacked on top of each other. (FIGURE 2) You can create grooves longer than the size of the tabs if you want to be able to shift the racks in steps. This makes it easier to see and enter documents. (FIGURE 3) The rear face does not require any particular transformation but it can also be cut for the same aesthetic purpose.

La face inférieure peut comporter un évidement (1)), toujours dans le but de faciliter la préhension des documents. (FIGURE 1) La FIGURE 4 montre une boîte de ramettes muni du couvercle innovant sur lequel on aperçoit les rainures (R), les languettes (L) la face avant et son évidement (E>). The underside may include a recess (1)), again in order to facilitate the gripping of documents. (FIGURE 1) FIGURE 4 shows a box of reams with the innovative cover on which we can see the grooves (R), the tabs (L) the front face and its recess (E>).

Claims

1) Device which allows the creation of mail boxes from boxes (cardboard, plastic, etc.), the initial use of which is only conventional packaging used to protect or transport the products in the inside. This device is characterized by the fact that this transformation is carried out by means of the precuts, tongues, cuts, and notches which are added to a conventional box. This device is especially recommended for cardboard boxes and their lids which serve as packaging for the reams of paper and which are perfectly suitable since they have the appropriate format.

2) Device according to claim 1 characterized in that on the front facade of the lid of the box, we will have created a precut which will allow to easily release a part of this facade and thus allow the insertion of sheets in the rack.

3) Device according to claim 1 characterized in that on the bottom of the lid of the box, we will have created a precut which will allow to easily release a part of the bottom and thus allow by this recess a better grip of the sheets contained in the bin .

4) Device according to claims 2 and 3 characterized in that the pre-cuts of the front panel and the pre-cut of the bottom part can be combined in a single pre-cut.

5) Device according to claim 1 characterized in that on the upper edges of the sides of the cover, we will have created tabs. These tabs allow the stacking of lockers.

6) Device according to claim 1 characterized in that on the lower edges of the sides of the cover, we will have created grooves. These grooves allow the stacking of racks. The tabs of a box, by sliding into the grooves of another box, allow the stacking of compartments on top of each other.

7) Device according to claim 6 characterized in that the grooves can be obtained from precuts.

8) Device according to claims 4 and 5 characterized in that one can create grooves longer than the size of the tongues if one wishes to be able to shift the lockers in steps, in order to better see the documents and better power grab them.
