Abstract

The cut blank includes a rectangular bottom F having its sides extended by four sets of panels and flaps respectively forming a back panel (11) and a wrapping cover (1) with a double front panel (13, 14), a frontal flap (2), a first small side with a double wall (31, 32), and a second small side with a double wall (41, 42) extended by a double bottom (43) snapping into a wall (32) of the first small side. Flaps articulated on the back panel (11) and caught between the double walls (31, 32; 41, 42) of the small sides are extended by snugs (8 a, 8 b) which engage in notches (9 a, 9 b) of a front panel (14) of the cover (1) to lock the box in a completely closed position.

Description

  • The present invention concerns a parallelepiped box having a cover articulated on one edge and a complementary frontal flap articulated on the edge diametrically opposite to the articulation edge of the cover, said box being formed by cutting and folding a single blank without adhesive bonding. [0001]
  • The invention concerns more particularly such a box cut into a blank made of flexible plastic material, which is embossed or corrugated, along a contour which, in a completely closed position, has no assembly slot communicating with the exterior and locks the cover in a closed position by a blocking notch making other means for blocking the cover unnecessary (for example scotch tape, elastic tape, snap fasteners, Velcro, etc . . . ). In the open position, the contour limits the pivoting of the frontal flap while allowing stacked flat objects to be easily picked up from the bottom, such as buckets pallets able to contain an assortment of products. [0002]
  • Numerous ways of cutting a blank have already been proposed to form boxes which can be stored flat and assembled by folding when required. US pat. No. 4,066,205 discloses a box with a folding front panel but the assembly of which requires adhesive bonding. French Patent No. 2 573 037 discloses an archive box able to be assembled without adhesive bonding and including a folding front panel and a cover articulated by means of lugs engaged in slots in the flaps of the small sides This box thus has several through passages which place the interior of the box in communication with the exterior. The box disclosed in European Patent No. 0 411 279 includes a pivoting panel and a cover articulated perpendicular to the pivoting axis and including numerous cut out portions which make the interior of the box communicate with the exterior. This box is theoretically able to be assembled without adhesive bonding, but experience has shown that the small flap of the double bottom is insufficient for the box to be strong after assembly. [0003]
  • The object of the present invention is thus to overcome the drawbacks of this prior art by providing a box with a cover and a front flap assembled without adhesive bonding from a single blank, with no through passage communicating with the exterior and strong after assembly. [0004]
  • The cut blank therefore includes a rectangular bottom F with its sides extended by four sets of panels and flaps forming respectively a back panel and a wrapping cover with a double front panel, a front flap, a first small side with a double wall and a second small side with a double wall extended by a double bottom which snaps into a wall of the first small side Flaps articulated on the back panel and caught between the double walls of the small sides are extended by snugs which engage in the notches of a front panel of the cover to lock the box in the completely closed position.[0005]
  • Other features and advantages of the present invention will appear in the following description of an embodiment example, with reference to the annexed drawings, in which: [0006]
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the box in the completely open position; [0007]
  • FIG. 2 is a diagram showing how the flat blank is cut to obtain the box shown in FIG. 1.[0008]
  • The parallelepiped box shown in perspective in the open position in FIG. 1 includes a [0009] cover 1 and a frontal flap 2 which pivots about an edge of the bottom F, while its travel is limited by two snugs 6 a, 6 b which slide in slots 7 a, 7 b formed on the top part of small sides 31, 32; 41, 42. It can also be seen that there are two small snugs 8 a, 8 b on the top part of small sides 31, 32; 41, 42, which extend a little beyond flap 2 when the latter is in the closed position. When flap 2 is closed and one folds down cover 1, snugs 8 a, 8 b snap into cuts 9 a, 9 b arranged in a double layer wall of cover 1. This perspective diagram also shows that bottom F is formed by two layers one of which includes a cut out portion 45 allowing flat stacked objects to be picked up more easily from the bottom.
  • Reference will now be made more particularly to FIG. 2 which shows a cut blank which will allow the box shown in FIG. 1 to be made by folding along the dotted lines. As can be seen, the four sides of bottom F are extended by four [0010] sets 10, 20, 30, 40 of assembly panels and flaps.
  • The [0011] first set 10 in the extension of a large side of F includes ten elements, panels and flaps, the functions of which in fact correspond to two sub-sets to form back panel 11 and cover 1. The first set 10 includes thus rear panel 11, extended by two lateral extensions formed of two flaps 11 a, 11 b having the length of a small side F and each including a snug 8 a, 8 b at the corner opposite the meeting point with bottom F.
  • The second sub-set, connected to the first by a [0012] fold line 16 thus includes a panel 12 forming the top part of cover 1, said panel 12 being extended on its small sides by two lugs each formed of a panel 12 a, 12 b extended, on the side adjacent to fold line 12 c with panel 12, by a flap 13 a, 13 b which has the width of the depth of the box. The fold line 13 c between panels 12 a, 12 b and flaps 13 a, 13 b includes, close to its most outer part, a slot 3 a, 3 b. Finally, the large side of panel 12 includes a double fold 17 extended by two panels 13, 14 each having substantially the width of the depth of the box. The end panel 14 is provided with snugs 5 a, 5 b on its small sides and flat cuts 9 a, 9 b in its corners. The fold 18 between panels 13 and 14 includes an oblong opening 19 this second sub-set will allow the cover to be made by folding flaps 13 a, 13 b, then panels 12 a, 12 b, then folding down panels 13, 14 on either side of flaps 13 a, 13 b so that the snugs snap into slots 3 a, 3 b.
  • The [0013] second set 20 constitutes the frontal flap articulated by a fold on the other large side of bottom F. It includes a panel 21 which has the width of the depth of the box and includes on each of its two small sides a lateral flap 21 a, 21 b in the shape of a quadrant the free side of which is extended by a stop 6 a, 6 b.
  • The third [0014] 30 and fourth 40 sets are in the extension of the small sides of bottom F. The third set 30 includes two panels 31, 32 which have the width of the depth of the box and a slot 7 a between their double fold line 31 c. The last panel 32 includes a notch 34 in its outer part. The fourth set 40 likewise includes two panels 41, 42 having a slot 7 b between their double fold line 41 c. Panel 42 is extended by a panel 43 having the dimensions of bottom F and including a snug 44 at its end.
  • In order to finish the construction, [0015] flaps 11 a, 11 b are folded down and panel 11 is folded, then pivoting flaps 21 a, 21 are folded down and panel 21 is folded so as to apply pivoting flaps 21 a, 21 b onto the inner faces of flaps 11 a, 11 b. Then, panels 31, 32 are folded down on either side of flaps 11 a, 21 a, and likewise panels 41, 42 are folded down on either side of flaps 11 b, 21 b and finally the end panel 43 is pressed? so as to snap snug 44 into notch 34. As can be seen, owing to the double bottom formed by panel 43 and owing to the double layer at notch 34, it is not necessary to have a through passage near the bottom, which provides the box with better sealing, for example against dust. Advantageously, a material having a certain thickness and a certain flexibility will be chosen for the blank such as a sheet of embossed or corrugated polypropylene.
  • Once the box is thus assembled, it can be seen with reference to FIG. 1, that the front folding flap can tip forward, its travel being limited by [0016] stops 6 a, 6 b which slide in slots 7 a, 7 b. It can also be seen that, when the folding flap is completely closed, snugs 8 a, 8 b slightly project so that by folding down cover 1 they snap into flat cuts 9 a, 9 b locking the cover for example for transport without it being necessary to add other means for locking the cover. The box which has just been described thus has the advantage of being able to be assembled easily without adhesive bonding, having a good level of rigidity and sealing close to that of boxes made by adhesive bonding. Without departing from the scope of the invention, those skilled in the art can adapt the construction which has just been described, for example by providing more than one snug 44 for securing the bottom.
