Definitions

• the present invention relates to any product packaging capable of being placed on a pin display.
• This packaging also comprises a hanging tab, essentially flat, which is arranged in the extension of the cavity delimiting the receptacle and which is pierced with at least one opening in which a display pin can be engaged to suspend the packaging therein.
• Display packaging of the type described above is well known and is often called a "blister".
• the front part of the packaging that is to say the part which is visible to buyers when the packaging is suspended from a display, is usually produced by thermoforming and cutting a sheet of semi-transparent plastic material. rigid.
• the other part, or rear part of the packaging can be produced by cutting a sheet of cardboard or a sheet of transparent or non-transparent plastic material and it can have a planar or non-planar shape, therefore without or forming the sheet of cardboard or plastic.
• the two parts of the package are usually fixed to one another, for example by stapling, gluing or ultrasonic welding.
• the opening provided in the hanging tab and through which the pin of the display is intended to be threaded usually has a standardized shape.
• This opening generally has a horizontal shape with a round hole in the middle having a diameter larger than the width of the slot.
• tongue conformations in the form of a hook make it possible to define such orifices in the same way.
• the essential difficulty presented by such packaging lies in their positioning on the spindle of the display. Indeed, up to now, if it is necessary, when restocking a display with pins, to proceed manually article by article. This results in a long and costly replenishment.
• An object of the present invention is therefore to propose a packaging whose design makes it possible to facilitate the supply or replenishment of pin displays on which said packaging must be positioned in the suspended state by authorizing a grouped positioning of the packaging without require the presence of accessories attached to the packaging in a separable manner and lost once the installation has been carried out.
• Another object of the present invention is to provide a packaging of the aforementioned type, the design of which makes it easier to wedge said packaging together, including during transport of the packaging without having to know the dimensions of the packaging used for transporting said packaging.
• the subject of the invention is a packaging of any product capable of being placed on a pin display, said packaging comprising on the one hand a cavity for housing the product to be exposed, on the other hand an orifice by which said packaging is intended to be suspended from the display pin, this pin itself being fixed generally perpendicular to a wall support surface, characterized in that the packaging comprises, in addition, integral with said packaging, at least one nesting guide capable of receiving the nesting guide of a neighboring package and thus ensuring the wedging now in alignment with the orifice of said packages in order to thread in a grouped manner a series of identical or similar packages on the same spindle suspension.
• this nesting guide can also be used during the transport of the packages and also ensure, during this transport, that the elements are wedged together.
• the invention more particularly relates to any product packaging capable of being placed on a pin display, this packaging being of the type obtained by assembling at least two parts forming, in the assembled state, a compartment delimiting the cavity for housing the product to be exposed and a suspension tongue extending in the extension of said compartment, this tongue being provided with at least one orifice through which a pin of the display stand must be engaged to suspend the packaging therein, characterized in that the tongue is provided, on at least one of its faces, with at least one interlocking guide projecting from said face, this interlocking guide being capable of receiving the interlocking guide a similar neighboring package and thus ensuring the wedging now in alignment with the orifice of said packages in order to thread in a grouped manner a series of identical or similar packages on the same suspension pin ension.
• Figure 1 shows a sectional view of two packages according to the invention in the nested state of the nesting guides of said packages;
• Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the packages shown in Figure 1 and
• Figure 3 shows a perspective view of another embodiment of the package.
• the packaging, object of the invention is intended for the presentation of any product on a display equipped with pins 1. These pins 1 are themselves fixed generally perpendicular to a wall support surface.
• the packaging 2, object of the invention is preferably obtained by assembling at least two parts 9, 10 forming, in the assembled state, a compartment delimiting the cavity 3 for housing the product to be exposed and a tongue 6 suspension extending in the extension of said compartment. This suspension tab 6 is provided with at least one orifice 4 through which a display pin 1 must be engaged to suspend the packaging there.
• the two parts 9, 10 constituting the packaging can be completely independent or connected to each other by a fold line.
• the front part of the packaging that is to say the part which is visible to buyers when the packaging is suspended from a display unit, is produced by thermoforming and cutting a sheet of semi transparent plastic material. -rigid.
• the other part or rear part of the packaging can be produced by cutting a sheet of cardboard or a sheet of transparent or non-transparent plastic material and it can have a planar or non-planar shape.
• the two parts of the package are usually fixed to each other for example by stapling, gluing or ultrasonic welding to delimit a closed cavity.
• the two parts of the packaging consist, one shown at 9 in the figures, of a flat support intended to constitute the rear face of the cavity 3, this flat support generally being made of cardboard, the other, represented in 10, by a hollow shell delimiting on the one hand the other walls of the cavity 3, on the other hand in the extension of the cavity 3, a tongue 6 of suspension.
• This tongue 6 is generally provided with at least one orifice through which must be engaged a pin of the display.
• This orifice can have a large number of forms and is constituted simply by a through hole whose dimensions are standardized, either by the interior of a hook cut out from the shell 10 or the support 9.
• the package 2 further comprises, integral with said package 2 in the closed state of the cavity, a fitting guide
• the nesting guide 5 able to receive the nesting guide 5 from a neighboring package.
• a wedging of said packages is thus obtained between them, this wedging being carried out in such a way that it keeps in alignment the orifices 4 fitted to each of the packages in order to allow a group of identical or similar packages to be threaded on the same suspension pin 1.
• the nesting guide 5 is produced in such a way that an immobilization or a limitation of the movement of said packages is obtained between them around the socket area 5A.
• This nesting guide 5 will therefore preferably be produced in the form of a non-circular element.
• the suspension tongue 6 is provided on at least on one of its faces with an interlocking guide 5 projecting from said face.
• This nesting guide 5 is suitable for receiving the nesting guide 5 from a similar neighboring package and thus ensuring the wedging now in alignment with the orifice 4 of said packages in order to thread in a grouped manner a series of identical packages 2 or the like on the same suspension pin 1.
• the suspension tongue 6 is provided with a window 7 extended at least on one of the faces of the tongue 6 by the nesting guide 5.
• the orifice 4 of the packaging 2 allowing the packaging 2 to be threaded onto the suspension pin 1 is constituted by the window 7 provided with a guide d 'fitting 5.
• orifice 4 and window 7 are made in the form of a single opening.
• the packages can be rotated around the socket area 5A without harming the desired result. This embodiment is however less practical in terms of handling.
• the nesting guide 5 assumes the shape of a sheath, preferably of generally frustoconical shape.
• the wall of the sheath thus converges from the rear part towards the front part of the cavity to facilitate the removal of a package from a display pin.
• the nesting guide 5 projects from the front face of the tongue, extending beyond said cavity 3.
• the large base of the truncated cone corresponds to that connected to the hanging tab while the small base corresponds to the free end of the sheath. This configuration of the sheath makes it easier to extract a package from pin 1 of the display.
• the nesting guide 5 will assume the shape of a through sheath when the sheath is combined with the orifice 4 through which the pin 1 of the display must be threaded.
• this nesting guide is independent of the orifice 4 through which the branch 1 must be threaded, it is possible to produce the nesting guide 5 in the form of a blind sleeve again of generally frustoconical appearance not circular, preferably slightly flattened with a triangular section as illustrated in the Figures 1 and 2.
• the nesting guide 5 assumes the shape of a visor in general roof shape.
• this nesting guide 5 comprises at least one part 5A extending outside the overall size zone delimited by the front and rear walls of said cavity 3 for housing the product to be presented.
• This part 5A of the nesting guide corresponds to the nesting zone of the nesting guide 5 with the nesting guide 5 of a neighboring package 2 as illustrated in FIG. 1.
• the area outside everything is delimited by a dotted line extending in the extension of the front face of the display in the suspended state of the latter and is also marked by the rear face of said cavity corresponding to the flat support 9 used to delimit this rear face .
• the nesting guide 5, positioned on the side of the face of the planar support 9 carrying the shell 10, projects beyond the front wall of said cavity.
• the two parts of the packaging consist of one of a flat support 9, intended to constitute the rear face of the cavity 3, and the other of a hollow shell 10 delimiting the other walls of the cavity 3 and the tongue 6 of suspension, it is the shell which is made of a transparent material.
• the suspension tongue 6 is provided with an interlocking guide 5 opening, in the assembled state of the parts 9 and 10, into an orifice 4 of the planar support.
• This orifice 4 constitutes the orifice through which the packaging 2 is intended to be suspended from the pin 1 of the display.
• the cavity 3 and the fitting guide 5 are formed on the same part of the packaging, in this case the shell part of the packaging, and constitute a monobloc assembly, preferably monolithic.
• shell 10 delimiting the cavity 3 and the nesting guide 5 could have been produced by means of two independent parts subsequently assembled on the planar support 9 without departing from the scope of the invention.
• Shell 10 and support 9 can also come from the same blank and connected by a fold line.
• the cavity 3, the suspension tab 6 and the interlocking guide 5 form, in the closed state of the cavity, preferably a one-piece assembly, that is to say a single piece.
• the nesting guide of a packaging into the nesting guide of a neighboring packaging and thus form a juxtaposition and / or a superposition of 'packaging, the nesting being effected until a wall of the cavity abuts against a wall of the cavity of a neighboring packaging.
• the packages are thus wedged in the box used for the transport of said packages.
• the packaging can thus be removed pile by pile and directly threaded in a group on a same pin 1 of suspension. As in the grouped state the orifices 4 are aligned, this operation is easy and quick.
