Description

Descrizione di una domanda per invenzione industriale dal titolo: Description of an application for industrial invention entitled:

Etichette per contenitori m generale, e per contenitori di prodotti alimentari in particolare. Labels for general m containers, and for food product containers in particular.

La presente invenzione si riferisce a delle etichette per contenitori in generale e per contenitori di prodotti alimentari in particolare, realizzate in legno, in sughero, in melamina in semilavorati MDF, in semilavorati in truciolare e/o precomposto. Dette etichette sono particolarmente adatte per applicazioni su contenitori di prodotti alimentari di qualità superiore e/o pregiati e/o d’origine artigianale particolarmente curata e controllata e qualificata quali, ad esempio non limitativo: vini, liquori, superalcolici, bevande varie, oli, conserve, marmellate, paste, dolciumi od altro. The present invention relates to labels for containers in general and for containers of food products in particular, made of wood, cork, melamine, semi-finished MDF products, semi-finished chipboard and / or precomposed products. These labels are particularly suitable for applications on containers of food products of superior quality and / or precious and / or of artisanal origin, particularly cared for and controlled and qualified such as, for example, but not limited to: wines, liqueurs, spirits, various beverages, oils, preserves, jams, pastas, sweets or other.

E’ noto che le attuali etichette adesive, destinate ad essere applicate sui prodotti in genere e sulle confezioni di prodotti alimentari in particolare, sono genericamente realizzate su carta e/o plastica e simili, e la distinzione tra un prodotto e l altro è rilevabile esclusivamente dalle diverse scritte, dai dati qualitativi e/o dalle immagini grafiche riprodotte su di esse. It is known that the current adhesive labels, intended to be applied on products in general and on the packaging of food products in particular, are generically made on paper and / or plastic and the like, and the distinction between one product and another can only be detected by the different writings, from qualitative data and / or from graphic images reproduced on them.

Tali attuali configurazioni, pur nella loro funzione distintiva dei prodotti contenuti nelle confezioni, non possono essere in alcun modo in grado di qualificare in modo preciso e più efficace la qualità intrinseca dei prodotti contenuti e sigillati, ma possono offrire agli acquirenti solo una loro immagine e/o descrizione esteriore, più o meno significativa, in finzione della grafica adottata e delle indicazioni scritte, lasciando comunque che la scelta d’acquisto sia affidata alle sole eventuali esperienze individuali già vissute, al consiglio degli operatori commerciali, o alla semplice sensazione casuale, se le conoscenze in merito sono limitate. These current configurations, despite their distinctive function of the products contained in the packages, cannot in any way be able to qualify the intrinsic quality of the contained and sealed products in a precise and more effective way, but can offer buyers only their own image and / or external description, more or less significant, in fiction of the graphics adopted and the written indications, leaving however that the purchase choice is entrusted only to any individual experiences already lived, to the advice of commercial operators, or to the simple casual sensation, if knowledge about it is limited.

Scopo dell’ invenzione è quello di offrire migliori definizioni delle qualità dei prodotti confezionati, specie dei prodotti alimentari, mediante etichette lignee o di simil legno, caratterizzate secondo quanto espresso nella rivendicazione n°1. Ulteriori e vantaggiose caratteristiche fonnano oggetto delle rivendicazioni dipendenti. The purpose of the invention is to offer better definitions of the quality of packaged products, especially food products, by means of wooden or wood-like labels, characterized according to what is expressed in claim 1. Further and advantageous characteristics are the subject of the dependent claims.

1 vantaggi conseguiti col presente trovato consistono essenzialmente nel fatto che l uso delle etichette di legno, di sughero, di melamina, di MDF, di truciolare o di precomposto, è diretto ad evidenziare con particolare efficacia i prodotti confezionati, specie in riguardo ai prodotti alimentari di qualità superiore quali: vini pregiati di qualità con eventuale limitata produzione, liquori particolari, superalcolici pregiati ed invecchiati, oli prodotti da olive selezionate, marmellate confetture e conserve di raffinata selezione, paste prodotte con selezionate qualità di cereali, dolciumi locali caratteristici e cosi via, per i quali un maggior costo d’immagine, comunque contenuto, offre agli acquirenti una chiara consapevolezza che la scelta orientata verso prodotti così etichettati appare maggiormente oculata e garantita. The advantages achieved with the present invention essentially consist in the fact that the use of labels made of wood, cork, melamine, MDF, chipboard or pre-composite, is aimed at highlighting packaged products with particular effectiveness, especially with regard to food products. of superior quality such as: fine quality wines with possible limited production, particular liqueurs, fine and aged spirits, oils produced from selected olives, jams and preserves of refined selection, pastas produced with selected quality of cereals, characteristic local sweets and so on , for which a higher image cost, however low, offers buyers a clear awareness that the choice oriented towards products thus labeled appears to be more prudent and guaranteed.

L’invenzione è descritta m dettaglio, secondo sue composizioni date a scopo esemplificativo e non limitativo, con riferimento all’ allegato disegno, in cui: The invention is described in detail, according to its compositions given for illustrative and non-limiting purposes, with reference to the attached drawing, in which:

la fig. 1 rappresenta un esempio ingrandito di una parte di etichetta secondo l’invenzione, e fig. 1 represents an enlarged example of a part of the label according to the invention, and

la fig. 2 rappresenta una serie di contenitori ai quali sono applicate etichette secondo l’invenzione in cui le immagini grafiche esplicative appaiono su superfici dove si distinguono te venature delle origini lignee. fig. 2 represents a series of containers to which labels are applied according to the invention in which the explanatory graphic images appear on surfaces where the veins of the wooden origins are distinguished.

Con riferimento alle figure, ogni etichetta lignea secondo l’invenzione è, sostanzialmente come fonila e/o dimensioni (quadrate, rettangolari, rotonde, ovali o con profili vari a fantasia), del tutto simile ad una tradizionale attuale etichetta, ma la stampa in serigrafia, l’incisione e/o la formatura per pressione in rilievo e/o la configurazione d’altro genere delle immagini e/o delle indicazioni superficiali distintive, sono eseguite su superfici che lasciano volutamente intravedere le sottostanti venature e/o conformazione d’origine lignea. With reference to the figures, each wooden label according to the invention is, substantially in the form of a file and / or dimensions (square, rectangular, round, oval or with various patterned profiles), completely similar to a traditional current label, but the printing in silk-screen printing, engraving and / or forming by pressure in relief and / or the configuration of another kind of images and / or distinctive surface indications, are performed on surfaces that deliberately reveal the underlying veins and / or conformation of wooden origin.

Più in particolare, le etichette secondo l’invenzione sono formate da: a) impiallacciatine di legno, More specifically, the labels according to the invention are made up of: a) wood veneers,

b) impiallacciature di stiglierò, b) stiglierò veneers,

c) impiallacciature di melamina c) melamine veneers

d) impiallacciature di semilavorati da “cips” di legno (MDF) che assicurano un’ottima coesione e compattezza delle fibre lignee, e) impiallacciature di truciolare ottenuto da semilavorati di frammenti di legno impastati con leganti a base di resine sintetiche, e pressati, ί) impiallacciature di materiale precomposto costituito da tranciato ligneo ricostruito artificialmente, d) veneers of semi-finished products from wood chips (MDF) which ensure excellent cohesion and compactness of the wood fibers, e) chipboard veneers obtained from semi-finished wood fragments mixed with synthetic resin-based binders, and pressed, ί) veneers of precomposed material consisting of artificially reconstructed wood veneer,

g) impiallacciature di materiali lignei simili o corrispondenti o combinati, relativi a quelli elencati nelle voci precedenti, g) veneers of similar or corresponding or combined wood materials, relative to those listed in the previous items,

I legni utilizzati possono essere d’essenze diverse, tradizionali o pregiate, singole, o composte. The woods used can be of different essences, traditional or precious, single or composite.

In ogli caso, le etichette costituite con i prodotti sopra elencati sono genericamente di spessore limitato (ad esempio circa 0,1 min) per garantire facili trattamenti di serigrafia, o processi analoghi di stampa superficiale in bianco e nero o a colon, delle immagini distintive di tipo classico o particolare. Ciò, tenendo conto che l effetto visivo finale, oltre a dare le classiche informazioni dei prodotti, pongono in evidenza la conformazione del materiale ligneo delle etichette stesse, quale ad esempio ed in particolare le venature originali e/o la struttura lignea specifica, allo scopo di combinare l’essenza stessa di cui sono costituite con l’intrinseca ed elevata qualità dei prodotti compresi e sigillati nelle varie e specifiche confezioni. In this case, the labels made with the products listed above are generally of limited thickness (for example about 0.1 min) to ensure easy screen printing treatments, or similar processes of surface printing in black and white or colon, of the distinctive images of classic or particular type. This, taking into account that the final visual effect, in addition to giving the classic information of the products, highlights the conformation of the wooden material of the labels themselves, such as, for example, and in particular the original veins and / or the specific wooden structure, for the purpose to combine the very essence of which they are made with the intrinsic and high quality of the products included and sealed in the various and specific packages.

In altre fonne, le etichette realizzate con i materiali lignei suddetti, presentano uno spessore maggiorato atto a consentire trattamenti superficiali in rilievo di rappresentazione delle immagini distintive, sia in bianco e nero che a colori, ottenute mediante stampaggio con pressatura e/o incisione a rilievo, evidenziando comunque la conformazione delle venature originali e/o della struttura lignea specifica. In other forms, the labels made with the aforementioned wooden materials have an increased thickness capable of allowing surface treatments in relief to represent the distinctive images, both in black and white and in color, obtained by stamping with pressing and / or relief engraving. , however highlighting the conformation of the original veins and / or the specific wooden structure.

L’invenzione è descritta ed illustrata secondo realizzazioni esemplificative non limitative; varianti ad esse potranno essere apportate, senza per questo uscire dal suo ambito e scopo. The invention is described and illustrated according to non-limiting exemplary embodiments; variations to them may be made, without thereby departing from its scope and purpose.
