Definitions

  • the present functional constructive invention relates to the manufacture of packages in a single final body, which will serve for the transport and display of cut flowers, foliage or live plants, with or without water, these being packed vertically.
  • a single body it is meant that the box is uniform and is composed of a single type of waterproof material, such as copolymer of polypropylene and pigments or any other, being able to join the pieces that make it with staples or through cuts and folds, and It has an innovative waterproof compartment, which together with its pre-cut system, results in a container where the hydrated flower can be transported and displayed.
  • the packages currently used for the transport of flower with water or hydrated serve to move the flower from one place to another, and to display the flower at the final points of sale; For example, the hydrated and cut flower is transported from the producer through the entire distribution chain to the point of sale, where the flower could even be displayed in the same packaging in which it has been transported.
  • US Patent 3,973,356 it relates to a package that provides a protective wrapping for distribution and display of flowers.
  • Packaging consisting of two pieces: water is placed in the lower part, and the upper part serves to protect the flower.
  • the harness is necessary to hold the two pieces together.
  • US Patent 5,060,799 it relates to a flower package composed of a plastic bucket, an extension of waxed cardboard that is placed on the bucket and a plastic lid that is placed over the extension. It allows the transportation of hydrated flower, packed vertically and by removing the extension the flower can be displayed in the same bucket. This is the alternative that is currently used most to transport hydrated flowers.
  • the constructive solutions offered in the market respond to equivalent combinations between parts, which fit into each other, joining the pieces by mechanical means, such as pieces that press against each other or require pins to hold them together.
  • the innovation to be presented shows a new design and concept of transport of cut flowers in water that makes the alternative to export or distribute hydrated flower more competitive, especially guaranteeing the exporter and importer that the flower will be transported from the producer to the point of final sale in the same container, without needing to be repackaged.
  • the boxes are subject to heavy handling, condensation of moisture in cold rooms, and the risk that some of the water in the watertight bucket can moisten and deteriorate the cardboard.
  • the mixed packages that are currently used for the transport of hydrated flowers are of considerable weight, and produce a certain amount of unnecessary additional cargo, which implies a significant increase in air freight costs for the transport of flowers fresh.
  • the current trend in the world, and in this particular case for the flower industry, is to look for valid alternatives that lead to the reduction of production costs and the improvement of quality, with the consequent optimization in the distribution chain and in the delivery of a product with superior final quality.
  • the alternative proposed in this model is that of the total change in the design and in the packaging materials that are currently used to transport hydrated cut flowers.
  • the innovation that we present here refers to a box with a watertight compartment, for the transport of flower cut with water; innovation that responds to an original constructive conception, with the use of a single waterproof material to form the box, polypropylene copolymer and pigments or other, with their respective clips for joining the pieces that form it.
  • the mechanics of armed is of simple form, that in addition to its functional efficiency, moves away all possibility of failures in its operability, adding to this fact that the use of a single material represents a reduction of costs, and reduction of time of armed and of the Risk in handling.
  • One of the objectives of this innovation is to make a box that has a watertight compartment for the transport of flower cut in water, and the option of displaying the flower in the same package in which it has been transported.
  • it uses three sheets of a waterproof material, for example polypropylene and pigment copolymer or other, rectangular, with two folds, dies, precuts and holes for the ventilation of the flower (see figures 1, 2, 3, and 11) .
  • the main feature of this innovation is that it has a sheet that forms the compartment or sealed container, of 100% waterproof material, (see figure 3), which folds for easy assembly and introduction into the base of the box, thus ensuring the tightness of it.
  • the weight and mechanics of the box that has been used for this case has been 550gr / m2 for the sheets that form the box and 400gr / m2 for the sheet that forms the watertight compartment, giving the box enough resistance to bear a weight of up to 70 kilos on it; taking as reference the maximum number of boxes of these dimensions that can be stacked in an airplane or other means of transport that is 3 to 4 units of 12 kilos each.
  • Figure 4 are the joined pieces that make up the box.
