Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a package, preferably a film package, for gathering a plurality of primary containers, such as bottles, that comprises an integrated handle.
  • the prior art shows packages to group a plurality of primary containers such as for example water bottles, or metal cans.
  • These known packages are typically made out of a shrinkable film that is rolled around the set of bottles and heat-treated so as to shrink around the bottles to tightly hold them together. Once gathered, the primary packages, for example the bottles, form a pack.
  • the gathering package is made out of a shrinkable film
  • the primary packages are plastic bottles.
  • this limitation should not be considered as restricting the scope of the invention.
  • Other types of materials than shrinkable plastic film may also be used for the gathering package, and other types of primary packages than plastic bottles may be gathered.
  • Some of the known film gathering packages comprise a handle that is glued onto the outer surface of the film by means of adhesive tape for example.
  • US 5 361 905 is a US patent application to McQueeny et Al, published November 8th, 1994. It discloses a primary packaging, according to the preamble of claim 1, for containing diapers, which is made of an envelope which holds the said diapers together and comprises precut lines for opening said envelope in two halves. Upon opening of the envelope, the two halves pivot around a hinge located in the base of the envelope, and one portion of the envelope is left which defines a carrying handle.
  • the present invention addresses the problems set out above with a secondary package for gathering a plurality of primary packages, comprising an envelope that surrounds the plurality of primary packages so as to tightly hold the latter together and so that said secondary package has a generally flat configuration, said envelope comprising a base side supporting the primary packages, lateral sides, and a top side.
  • the secondary package is characterized in that:
  • the predetermined weakness line is a precut line, and also preferably, the folding line is located in the medium part of the base.
  • the base of the secondary package comprises a carrying handle that is disposed vertically between the portions of the envelope.
  • said carrying handle is more preferably disposed in said envelope, such that it is accessible only after said secondary package is folded in its compacted configuration.
  • Said handle can be a strip that is fixed along the medium folding line of the envelope base.
  • said handle can be glued to the external surface of the envelope, the precut comprising two precut lines that are substantially parallel to one another.
  • the base of the envelope is preferably reinforced by an independent secondary base.
  • said secondary base can be made out of a corrugated plastic board, and is preferably rigid.
  • the portions of the envelope base are symmetrical along the folding line.
  • the present invention is preferably meant to be used such that the primary packages are water-containing plastic bottles.
  • the secondary package 1 is meant for gathering a plurality of primary packages 2.
  • the primary packages are plastic bottles 2 containing water.
  • the secondary package 1 according to the present invention comprises an envelope 3 that surrounds the plurality of primary packages 2 so as to tightly hold the latter together.
  • said envelope 3 comprises a base 4 supporting the primary packages 2, as well as lateral sides 5, and a top side 6.
  • the base 4 of the envelope 3 comprises a medium folding line 7 that pivotally connects two halves 8a, 8b of the base 4 supporting the primary packages.
  • the base 4 further comprises a carrying handle 9 that is disposed vertically along the medium folding line.
  • the lateral sides 5 and the top side 6 of the envelope 3 comprise a transversal precut 10 in the region of the medium folding line 7, as shown in figures 1 or 5 .
  • the base 4 of the envelope 3 is reinforced by an independent secondary base 11.
  • said secondary base 11 is made out of a rigid corrugated plastic board.
  • the precut 10 comprises two precut lines 10a, 10b that are substantially parallel to one another.
  • the base 4 of the envelope 3 is not reinforced and comprises solely the material making the whole envelope.
  • the carrying handle 9 is a strip of thick film that surrounds said envelope 3, and that is attached to the latter by glue that is disposed at the interface between said handle and said envelope, in the base region of said envelope.
  • both halves 8a, 8b of the envelope base 4 are symmetrical along the medium folding line 7.
  • the envelope 3 is made out of a thermoshrinkable film.
  • the disposition of the water bottles 2 on the base 4, and the fact that the contours of said base 4 is adapted to the disposition of the water bottles, makes it convenient to place several secondary packages of the invention, such that adjacent secondary packages are interlocked. This allows for building compact and strong layers of secondary packages in a pallet.
