Definitions

• the present invention relates to a case, and in particular a case intended to contain and distribute products, such as for example products appearing substantially in the form of a folded sheet, arranged in a stack inside said case.
• these cases have an opening device comprising a weakening line, for example a pre-cut line, not straight, and an adhesive label.
• the label generally covers the defined area inside the line of weakness, and slightly protrudes outside of said area.
• the label When using the case for the first time, the label is removed from the corresponding wall.
• the label peels off the region of the wall located outside the line of weakness and carries with it the region of the wall located inside the line weakening. This region detaches from the rest of the wall along the line of weakness and then forms a closing and opening valve of a distribution window.
• the case is closed by re-gluing the label in its initial position, the valve being replaced substantially in the dispensing window.
• Patent 096/11147 describes such a case intended to contain hygiene products arranged in a stack. Its purpose is to reduce the area of the adhesive label, in order to save on adhesive material. It has a weakening line in the form of a V or portion of a circle, and a label having a substantially similar shape, which covers only the weakening line and the lateral edges on either side thereof. Also known in the prior art Cases of the prior art have in common a number of drawbacks. The most important are discussed below.
• the opening device is placed substantially in the middle of one of their faces. Gripping the product that appears on top of the stack through the dispensing window is often difficult. We also take the risk of taking at least two products at the same time instead of just one.
• Known cases generally have a longitudinal weld on one of their faces, like many food packaging. This weld is unsightly and gives the case a utilitarian character, unsuitable in particular for luxury goods, such as wipes impregnated with prestigious perfumes.
• the cases of the prior art are made from a flexible material which does not have the solidity necessary for certain uses, and risks for example tearing, in particular if the user pulls the label more than expected. by the designer of the case. The label may then come off completely and be difficult to re-stick completely and / or tightly.
• the traction exerted on the flap may cause a tear along the fold forming the upper edge, in particular when the traction comprises a component parallel to the fold. This then results in a loss of tightness.
• the upper edge of the wipes is accessible when the case is open, which can lead to the user to remove the wipe not by grasping it by the middle fold, but by grasping it by the upper edge. This improper handling leads to a hygienic defect and a risk of extracting several wipes.
• the flap can be positioned in an inclined manner, which reduces the sealing of the packaging.
• the object of the present invention is to provide a case for products which overcomes at least some of the drawbacks of the prior art.
• the case comprising sealing means and an opening device disposed on one face of the case and formed by an adhesive label and an opening flap surrounded at least partly by a line of weakness.
• the adhesive label completely covers the opening valve and projects beyond the line of weakness which extends in the vicinity of a stop edge of said face.
• the weakening line extends to, but does not reach, the vicinity of the upper edge.
• the notion of neighborhood depends on the size and dimension of the case. It can be considered that the concept of neighborhood is understood, within the meaning of this patent, as a distance less than a few percent, in particular less than 10%, of the dimension parallel to the axis of traction.
• the concept of "without coming into contact” is understood as preserving a short distance, for example less than a few thousandths, in particular less than 1%, of the dimension parallel to the axis of traction.
• This solution makes it possible to avoid tearing the case in the event of excessive traction on the closing valve.
• it reserves an upper zone in which the conditioned article remains maintained, unlike the solutions comprising a sealing strip.
• the result obtained is a better seal and a resealable opening which prevents the articles from being grabbed by the edge. They can only be entered by the middle corner.
• the weakening line defines the outline of a dispensing window which is situated so as to preferably overlap an edge of the first product to be dispensed.
• the user can use a finger to select the first product which appears before taking it easily, by pulling on the central corner. This avoids the difficulties and wasteful
• the area extending between the ends of the weakening line and the edge of the case has the function of stopping the movement resulting from the pulling on the label. It may be an area belonging to the outer contour of the case, or an area formed back from the outer contour.
• the weakening line preferably has two ends extending substantially to the stop edge and between which the material of the case forms a line of articulation for the valve.
• the face carrying the weakening line will be called the front face.
• the side opposite it will be called the back side.
• the case is made of plastic material, for example thermoformed or injected, and has a shell forming the rear face of the case and secured to a closure element by welding their free edges respective.
• Said closure element may consist of a flexible membrane, but advantageously takes the form of a second shell forming the front face of the case.
• the two shells before being welded, can: be independent and therefore subsequently welded by their four free edges, or

• the case may also include pushing means, intended to facilitate the exit of the products contained in said case.
• the case is made from a sheet of flexible and impermeable material, for example plastic, folded in half along a fold line so as to form two substantially parallel parts. These two parts are welded together by their respective free edges.
• the line of weakness is located in the vicinity of the fold line.
• the stop edge is formed by the fold line.
• the adhesive label can be arranged so as to overlap the fold line. This arrangement has the advantage of providing a label with very high tensile strength.
