- the upper neck 11 of the shell 10 has dimensions adapted to fit elastically. on the bottle 20, under the collar 22.
- the upper neck 11 of the shell 10 is formed over more than 180 ° (for example 270 °, at ⁇ 45 °) so as to be able to move away , receive and retain the neck 21 of the bottle 20, in particular by retaining the collar 22.
- the upper neck 11 of the shell has a cylindrical rim of a few millimeters
- the bottle 20 comprises the collar 20, and a cylindrical neck portion arranged between the collar 22 and the shoulder of the bottle 20, and the cylindrical rim of the upper neck 11 clamps the cylindrical neck portion of the bottle 20, while coming into axial abutment with the flange 22, which provides an assembly of the shell 10 and the bottle 20.
- the shell 10 and the bottle 20 form an object 30 easy to handle for a user.
- the bottom 14 of the shell 10 is flat, so that the object 30 holds a stable vertical position when it is placed on a work surface.
- a return 16 is provided on the lower part of the shell 10 to secure the coupling and the holding of the bottle 20 - shell 10 assembly.
- the cap 26 is screwed on the bottle 20.
- a protuberance 27 is provided on the bottle 20 to be housed in the opening of the upper neck 11 of the shell 10.
- a torque applied to the bottle 20 is transmitted to the shell 10 via the protuberance 27.
- indexing as by example a neck 21 of the bottle 20 with a non-circular section, crenellations at the level of the upper neck 11 which engage in counter-shapes of the collar 22 ...
- the protuberance 27 is adjacent to the shoulder 28 of the bottle 20, so that the wall of the shell 10 at the level of the collar 11 or of the shell shoulder 16 does not cannot slip between the shoulder 28 and the protuberance 27 of the bottle 20.

- gripping by pliers is possible under the collar 22, even in the presence of the protuberance 27.
- the protrusion 27 has a width less than the value of the diameter D4 under the collar, if although it is possible to guide the bottle 20 during manufacture via rails which rest under the collar 22.
- Figure 5 shows the bottle 20 from the side that the protuberance has a radial dimension similar to that of the collar 20 and that it does not protrude.
- Figure 9 which shows the bottle 20 in section along a plane normal to the axial direction of the bottle and passing between the protuberance 27 and the flange 22, the radial dimension A3 of the protuberance 27 is substantially equal to D3 / 2.
- the rest of the neck has a radial dimension A2 less than A3.
- FIG. 9 also shows that the protuberance 27 extends along an angular sector A1, with a value of approximately 90 ° here, but one can consider values between 30 and 150 ° for example.
- These implementations make it possible to provide a reusable shell 10 that is fairly rigid or at least not too flexible to be held (typically with a force of 20 newtons) without significantly deforming, and to provide a very thin disposable bottle 20, and therefore too soft or too flexible to be held (typically with the same force of 20 newtons) without deforming.
- This coupling makes it possible to provide a disposable and recyclable bottle 20 made with little material and yet with correct ergonomics, since the shell 10 is sufficiently rigid and reusable.
- the bottle 20, the neck, and / or the body of the bottle is preferably formed of a thermoplastic material, preferably thin-walled.
- the material is preferably a polyester such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT), polyethylene furanoate (PEF) or polytrimethylene furanoate (PTF).
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- PTT polytrimethylene terephthalate
- PET polyethylene furanoate
- PEF polytrimethylene furanoate
- PPF polytrimethylene furanoate
- the material can be at least partially recycled material.
- the bottle is preferably shaped by an injection blow molding process, for example an injection stretch blow molding process. In these processes, a solid preform (shown in FIG. 10) is manufactured by injecting the material into a mold and then cooling, the preform is then heated in order to soften it, optionally stretched longitudinally using a rod, then stretched axially and longitudinally by blowing in a
- polyesters have the advantage of being easily recyclable.
- Regeneration can be mechanical recycling involving melting and shaping, for example into granules before new plastics processing operations such as injection blow molding or chemical recycling involving depolymerization, recovery of monomers or precursors, then a new polymerization.
- the implementation and use of the thin-walled bottles of the invention therefore has a very advantageous environmental balance, in addition to good practicality, in particular by contributing to the implementation of conventional PET bottles non-activatable, thicker.
- the thin wall is preferably such that the body of the bottle has a thickness within a range from 30 ⁇ m to 150 ⁇ m, for example in a range from 30 ⁇ m to 50 ⁇ m or from 50 ⁇ m to 70 ⁇ m or from 70 ⁇ m to 100 ⁇ m, or from 100 ⁇ m to 125 ⁇ m or from 125 ⁇ m to 150 ⁇ m, preferably in a range of 100 ⁇ m to 125 ⁇ m.
- the thickness mentioned is the thickness at at least one point of the body, preferably the average thickness over a portion representing at least 50% in length or area of the body, preferably at least 80%, preferably the thickness average over the whole body.
- the bottom of the bottle may be slightly thicker than the body, eg up to 50% thicker than the body, eg up to 20% thicker.
- the bottom may also have a cup, typically corresponding to the bottom of the preform and to its injection point.
- the thickness can be adjusted by adapting, for a target bottle volume, the characteristics of the preform, in particular its shape and the thickness of its walls, as well as the drawing characteristics. It is mentioned that the thickness of the walls of the preform, the geometry of the preform such as its length, its diameter and its bottom shape, together with the neck which may form a bottle neck, determine the weight.
- the bottle, unfilled, not closed, and / or the preform generally have the same weight. Subsequently the weights given are refer indifferently to bottle weight or preform weight. For a 75 cl bottle, it is advantageously possible to use preforms of 8 to 13 g.
- the overall stretch ratio may for example be between 12.0 and 27.0, preferably between 15.0 and 20.0.
- the axial stretch rate (typically the ratio between the height of the bottle and the length of the stretchable part of the preform, typically the distance under the neck) can for example be between 3.0 and 4.5.
- the radial stretch rate (typically ratio between the diameter of the bottle and the diameter of the stretchable part of the preform) can for example be between 4.0 and 6.0. It is mentioned that the overall stretch ratio is generally equal to the product of the axial stretch ratio and the radial stretch ratio.
- FIG. 10 represents a preform 40 produced by injection, and which can be used in a blowing process to produce the bottle 20 of FIG. 4.
- the preform 40 has a threaded upper part CF which will not be stretched during the blowing process, and which therefore has the same dimensions as the neck of the bottle 20.
- the collar 22 which is of the same dimensions as that of the bottle 20.
- a cylindrical part separates the flange 22 of a slightly conical part Ep, adjacent to a lower part Co of the preform.
- the part Ep of the preform approximately corresponds to the shoulder 28 of the bottle 20
- the Co part approximately corresponds to the side wall 24 and the bottom 25 of the bottle 29.
- the cylindrical zone between the part Ep and the flange 22 of the preform 40 is free from bosses or protuberances. Indeed, the protuberance 27 will be formed during the blowing operation in this exemplary embodiment.
- the preform 40 or 40A can be formed in a thermoplastic material, and it can have:
- a protuberance 27 arranged under the collar 22 and adjacent to the shoulder 28 of the bottle makes it possible to couple the bottle 20 reliably to a shell 10.
- the protuberance 27 can be used in order to:
- the protuberance 27 can be used in order to:
- the protuberance 27 can also be used to carry a marking, a logo in order for example to provide traceability or an indication of material for a particular recycling in the case of specific material.
- 27 can itself be used as a marking in order for example to provide traceability or an indication of material for a particular recycling in the case of specific material.
