Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the device for packaging and conditioning. More particularly, the invention relates to a device for packaging of products which, not in the form of a single solid block, can flow. These products can be by example pasty, grainy or liquid.
  • DE-A-19 60 577 describes a packaging unit with a pouch surrounded by two walls hinged together at their lateral edges, the opposite faces of the pouch being fixed to the internal faces of the walls.
  • DE-U-94 112 648 describes a plurality of “stickpack” type packages linked together and surrounded by a band.
  • US-A-4,428,500 describes structures used for trays or cups and adapted to be erected automatically.
  • a structure includes an envelope outer cardboard or shell and a waterproof inner plastic bag.
  • the pouches constitute a simple and economical packaging which also has the advantage of having a small footprint once emptied of its content, which is advantageous from a practical point of view.
  • the object of the invention is to allow packaging using pouches, freed from the drawbacks mentioned above inherent in known pouches.
  • the invention proposes a device for packaging of flowable products, as defined in claim 1.
  • a pouch 10 containing a product such as, for example and without limitation, food (for example for animals) or a liquid detergent.
  • This pouch is consisting of the assembly of two flexible sheets 11 and 12 welded edge to edge edge, for example by ultrasonic welding.
  • This type of pouch can be known type and will not be described in more detail.
  • the median longitudinal plane P of the device which in this form of embodiment in which the device comprises only a single pouch also corresponds to the median longitudinal plane of the pouch 10).
  • Two reinforcing elements 21 and 22 are bonded to the two opposite faces of the pouch, facing each other. These elements reinforcements are made of a relatively rigid material but having sufficient flexibility to be able to be deformed by the hand of a user; we can for example realize the reinforcing elements 21 and 22 cardboard-based.
  • each reinforcement element 21 or 22 is produced in the form of a sheet (in cardboard or other) with no specific layout to guide its deformation following the bringing together of its two lateral ends by the hand of a user, so that this deformation corresponds to a camber of the reinforcing element.
  • each element of reinforcement of a weakening and / or fold line (for example substantially vertical) so that following the bringing together of its two ends side, each reinforcing element folds in half like a flap articulated, the middle parts of the two reinforcing elements deviating always from each other in this case.
  • a weakening and / or fold line for example substantially vertical
  • the reinforcing elements 21 and 22 extend as shown in the Figure 1b over the entire width of the pouch, which they project from both sides.
  • the bonding of the reinforcing elements 21 and 22 on the walls of the pouch can be made with a strip of glue continuous covering all or part of the width of the wall of the pouch, or by the application in discrete places of bonding points (for example in depositing on each wall of the pouch a bonding point in the middle, surrounded by two lateral gluing points). In all cases, it is important that at least the middle region of each wall of the pouch is glued to the associated reinforcing element.
  • each element reinforcement to its pouch wall also associated at the two side edges of the pouch, in order to increase the coherence of the assembly and to further facilitate the opening of the pouch.
  • These reinforcing elements 21 will preferably be chosen and 22 with sufficient elasticity so that after several manipulations these reinforcement elements naturally regain their shape original corresponding to Figure 2a.
  • Figure 3a shows a schematic top view of a pouch 10 surrounded by two reinforcing elements 21 and 22 which are glued to it; on this figure, we see that the two reinforcing elements 21 and 22 are disjoint, whereas in FIG. 3b which is a similar representation of a mode of alternative embodiment, the ends of the two reinforcing elements 21 and 22 are gathered: It is thus possible to associate with the pouch elements of reinforcement 21 and 22 in the form of two separate flexible bands, or else of a single sheath surrounding the pouch without discontinuity.
  • FIGs 4a to 4c show three alternative embodiments, which can be implemented with each of the two embodiments shown in Figures 3a and 3b.
  • the reinforcing elements 21 and 22 extend over the entire height of the pouch, but their lower ends are disjoint: this variant corresponds to the case where the pouch is simply "taken in sandwich "between two flexible sides (embodiment of FIG. 3a), or surrounded by a sheath open at both ends, and on the walls which the pouch is glued (embodiment of Figure 3b).
  • the two reinforcing elements 21 and 22 have disjointed lower ends but their upper end is covered by a part 24 coming from matter.
  • the main function of the reinforcing elements 21 and 22 is, as said, to allow reliable opening of the pouch. These elements also have the advantage that they can be used as a surface graph to present product information or data promotion.
  • Figures 5a and 5b show a packaging device corresponding to the configurations of FIGS. 3b and 4b (lateral ends of the reinforcing elements at least punctually joined and lower ends of these reinforcing elements joined by a based). It can be seen that the reinforcing elements have been cut here from so as to have a characteristic appearance (cat's head); it is here in the occurrence of a device containing cat food. Each of the two upper corners of the reinforcing element (which corresponds to a cat's ear) is glued to the corner of the reinforcement element located look, to increase the rigidity of the device.
  • Figures 6a to 6d are four representations of the pouch in the figures 5a and 5b once the top of the pouch has been cut.
  • FIG. 6a it can be seen that part of the element 21 has been itself cut to form a tongue 210 which can be straightened and folded over the top of the pouch, and be engaged in a slot 220 of the opposite reinforcing element 22 (FIG. 6b).
  • a tongue 210 which can be straightened and folded over the top of the pouch, and be engaged in a slot 220 of the opposite reinforcing element 22 (FIG. 6b).
  • FIG. 6a it can be seen that by cutting the tab 210 in element 21 an opening 211 has been defined to facilitate handling the tab.
  • Figures 6c and 6d show the two sides of the device once the tongue engaged in the slot. This arrangement allows you to close the pouch when only part of its contents has been spilled.
  • the packaging device can be made in various sizes; in particular it is possible to plan large devices that can be manipulated with both hands to separate the two reinforcing elements and open the pouch (application for example in the packaging of dog food).
  • each reinforcing elements a pre-cut tear line, referenced L in FIGS. 7a to 7c, at the same height as the bonding of these elements reinforcement 21 'and 22' on the pouch.
  • each element of reinforcement and its pouch face associated with glue deposit between each element of reinforcement and its pouch face associated with glue along two lines C which appear in FIGS. 7b and 7c, and which extend substantially from one side edge to the other of their face of the associated pouch, parallel to their associated tear line L, said tear line being inserted in the vertical direction between the two lines of adhesive C.
  • the pouch is opened by tearing off the part high reinforcement elements 21 'and 22' (and possibly the binder top these reinforcing elements), opening the pouch 10 itself in the same time.
  • this arrangement makes it possible to guide the tearing of the pouch to hand and thus make the opening of the device more reliable.
  • known pouches can include opening means such as a weakening line (can be achieved for example by attacking the sheet of the pouch by a laser beam to reduce its thickness).
  • opening means such as a weakening line (can be achieved for example by attacking the sheet of the pouch by a laser beam to reduce its thickness).
  • FIG. 7b On which has schematically represented the upper parts of each element of reinforcement 21 'and 22' with their line of weakness L surrounded by their two glue lines C.
  • This arrangement thus eliminates a process step in the manufacture of the device (such as a step of attacking the walls of the pouch by a laser beam), which reduces the cost price of the pouch.
  • the two lines of adhesive C constitute a "Channel" which frames the desired place of tearing of the walls of the pouch and thus participates in guiding this tearing, the two lines of glue constituting obstacles to the tear lines of the walls of the pouch.
  • tear lines of the reinforcing elements defining the opening path of the device are adapted to the application chosen: we can indeed have a rectilinear opening path, but also curvilinear, or even a route according to any desired pattern.
  • each reinforcement element 21, 22 and its associated pouch face by any means known other than a collage; we could for example engage the elements of reinforcement in facilities (which may include, for example, wall parts of the pouch protruding from the welded edges of said pouch and folded back on themselves, or even extra thicknesses associated with a opening for the passage of the reinforcing elements) of the walls of the pouch, or weld these elements together.
  • facilities which may include, for example, wall parts of the pouch protruding from the welded edges of said pouch and folded back on themselves, or even extra thicknesses associated with a opening for the passage of the reinforcing elements
  • FIG. 8a to 8e there is shown a form particular embodiment of the invention in which the device contains not one but two bags 10 and 10 '.
  • FIGS. 8c and 8e in this embodiment of the invention the two bags 10 and 10 'are glued together by two lines of glue C 'which substantially cover the extent side of the surface on which the two pouches are facing one of the other.
  • FIGS. 8d and 8e also show the plane P longitudinal median of the device, the pouches being aligned substantially perpendicular to this plane.
  • Each pouch is also glued to a reinforcing element (element 21 'for the bag 10', 22 'for the bag 10), with two lines of adhesive C similar to those in Figure 7c, and which again frame a line L of the reinforcing element.
  • the reinforcing elements are like in the case of the device with a single pouch arranged symmetrically by relation to plane P (i.e. opposite each other, and to the same height).
  • This second embodiment makes it possible to condition in a unique device of products with different characteristics.
  • the opening it is thus possible depending on the opening to provide any number of bags aligned in series and glued together in pairs by their adjacent walls, preferably at the same height as notches their lateral edges, also surrounded by two reinforcing elements glued (or secured to the pouches by any other known means), the reinforcing elements which may include tear lines.
  • the reinforcement elements may also in this case not include tear-off lines, the bags can then be provided with means of opening such as lines of weakness made by an attack laser.
