Definitions

• Figure 3 is a schematic sectional view taken along line III-III of Figure 1.
• a container according to the invention is obtained from a blank from a sheet of synthetic material, which is prepared by cutting and shaping, preferably by thermoforming.
• the folding is done along three parallel lines 15, 16 and 17 which can be obtained directly during thermoforming or be marked during a separate operation.
• the fold lines 15, 16 and 17 form the outermost edges of the container ( Figure 7) and must be of irreproachable quality, which implies a clear marking that is obtained by creating a discontinuity between the two edges joints located on either side of the fold line.
• FIG. 8 we see an example according to which the end panels 1 and 4 are held in position by securing their edges 5 and 12 by means of two clamps 21 and 22 whose branches are separated by a slot of width one little less than the thickness of the two flanges 5 and 12 applied one against the other.
• This cover 45 is here held in place by means of a link 46 which surrounds the container transversely, passing through notches formed in the flanges 5 to 12.
• FIG. 10 a variant is shown according to which the panels 1 to 4 are crossed by an opening 51 (only two are visible on the panels 3 and 4).
• the wrapped article here a bottle A, and partly engaged in the openings 51 which play the same role as the cells 50, except that the surface of the cells does not exist. In this way, we can easily observe, and even touch, the wrapped article and we see here the bottle A and its label B.
• the container has two exterior panels 61 and 62, two central panels applied one against the other 63 and 64, as well as four small panels respectively 65, 66, 67 and 68 which are applied two by two against the panel 61 and against panel 62.
• all the interior and exterior faces that the container comprises are of double thickness, which gives it a very great robustness.
• the two central panels 63 and 64 have an opening through which is engaged a bottle A.
• FIG. 16 shows that a container according to the invention can be combined with a display for one or more other articles D (here a champagne flute), in particular a double thermoformed transparent shell, as is known per se by the Man of the Trade.
• a container according to the invention can be combined with a display for one or more other articles D (here a champagne flute), in particular a double thermoformed transparent shell, as is known per se by the Man of the Trade.
• angles 95 and 96 are of two different values depending on whether they are located between two panels at an acute angle 92-93 and 91-94, or at an obtuse angle 91-92 and 93-94, this arrangement depending on that of four bottles H, I, J and K of which two, H and I, are located one against the other and the other two, J and K, on each side of the first two.
• the desired number of panels are created in a plastic sheet, by thermoforming, determining their inclined projecting edges. Simultaneously or by a separate operation, the fold lines between the edges joining two neighboring panels are marked.
• the machine which embodies the process illustrated in FIG. 19 may or may not include a marking station.
• the machine comprises one or more dispenser and applicator stations for fixing means such as glue, welding electrodes, stapler, etc.
