Definitions
- the present invention relates to a flexible package and a set of such packaging intended to at least partially wrap any article in general.
- the present invention also relates to a use of this package as a gift package, in particular.
- pouches in which the articles that one wishes to pack can simply be slipped.
- Such pouches are closed by tilting a flap sealed either by means of an adhesive tape, or with a metal clasp integrated in the pouch, or even a tape passing through a hole.
- One of the drawbacks of this embodiment lies in the fact that the fastener provided for closing the bag consists of a strip that is appropriate, over its entire length, to separate from the bag before it can be used. . This procedure generates an increased risk of unexpected tearing of this band during its separation with the bag.
- the purpose of the present invention is to provide a package which is simple in design and which makes it possible to remedy at least in part the aforementioned drawbacks. It should be noted in this regard that these disadvantages are found both in the field of gift wrapping as in that for wrapping any common item for another purpose.
- the object of the present invention relates in particular to a package according to the statement of claim 1.
- this packaging can offer a double access, for example, to promote the enveloping of the most fragile objects.
- it can benefit in contrast to a separate opening means that facilitates the unpacking of the wrapped object.
- it can also be an assembly comprising all the necessary equipment to produce a labeled package.
- this package can be easily made in the form of a set of a plurality of units that can be packaged in the form of a roller or an accordion stack for example.
- the latter corresponds to the situation in which the packaged object is completely covered by the packaging.
- the second possible mode of use corresponds to that represented in the figure 2 , where the packaged object is only partially covered by the package. This second mode can find a particularly appropriate use, for example when it is necessary to pack flowers as illustrated.
- the package 1 of the present invention is formed of at least one tubular sheet 2 of flexible material.
- This sheet in the form of a tube defines two opposite ends 3, 4, better represented on the Figures 3a and 3b . At least one of these ends is at the same time not sealed and comprises at least one link 10 incorporated within the tubular sheet 2.
- This link 10 is a means of ligating the unsealed end 3, by the object to be packaged may be introduced into the package 1.
- the sealing of the closed end 4 can be achieved depending on the material constituting the tubular sheet 2.
- a seal can typically be obtained by welding or gluing, respectively for materials such as paper or plastic for example.
- tubular sheets When several tubular sheets are used to form the package, they may preferably be superimposed. It is then possible to benefit from a certain quality or a certain impression on the outside of the packaging, whereas a quality and / or an impression different can be applied to the inner tubular sheet.
- FIGs 3a and 3b these schematically illustrate the package 2 as it is when it is flattened on a flat surface.
- the figure 3a refers to a first embodiment in which the association of the link 10 to the tubular sheet 2 is such that the link is interlaced in this sheet.
- this embodiment makes it possible to make the link clearly visible when the corresponding unsealed opening 3 is not yet closed.
- This configuration can be advantageous, especially when this link is made of a ribbon with a beautiful appearance.
- This preferred embodiment also has the advantage of being of simpler design to achieve because it requires no slide, passing or sleeve for the association of the link to the tubular sheet.
- the figure 3b shows that the latter could also slide in a sleeve or in a hem, preferably reported against the inner part of the tubular sheet 2.
- the link 10 is distant from its corresponding open end 3, in order to form, within the tubular sheet, an end zone 5 situated between the link 10 and said end 3.
- This end zone makes it possible not to weaken this end which may be intended to receive at least one fragile bond as will be seen later.
- the terminal area 5 provides sufficient space which facilitates the insertion operation of the link in the sheet, in that the manufacturing tolerances which define the location of the link can be advantageously less restrictive.
- this end zone 5 advantageously constitutes a decorative element when package 1 is used as a gift package.
- this illustrates the object of the present invention according to a second embodiment in which the two opposite ends 3a, 4a of the tubular sheet 2 are both unsealed and comprise at least one link 10 inserted at least partially 2.
- the packaging takes the shape of a candy thanks to the two end zones 5 that define the locations of the ties 10 knotted on either side of the tubular sheet 2.
- FIGS. 5a and 5b give illustrations of the packaging of the figure 4 , according to flat views which respectively correspond to the first embodiment of the figure 3a and its schematized variant to the figure 3b .
- the tubular sheet 2 of the package 1 comprises at least one opening line 6 facilitating the unpacking of the wrapped object by opening the tubular sheet.
- an opening line could for example be achieved by weakening the resistance of the sheet material along any path, for example along a substantially vertical or horizontal line.
- a weakening could be obtained by discontinuous perforation of the sheet or by means of an embossing line or weakening of the thickness of the material.
- Another solution is to provide for the application of a rope, preferably reported against the inner face of the tubular sheet.
- an end of this rope would cross this sheet so that it can be grasped from the outside.
- the whole of the rope is located on the same side of the leaf but at least one of its ends is disposed at the edge or in the immediate vicinity of the open end 3, 3a, 4a of this sheet.
- the opening line 6 could still be made by any other means of opening / closing conventionally used in the textile field for example.
- FIG. 7a shows that the opening line 6 is a closed line which, by its outline, defines an opening zone 7.
- figure 7b shows that the opening zone 7 can be defined by the crossing of several opening lines 6, in this case two lines constituting the diagonals of the opening zone. These lines can also be parallel as shown in figure 7 .
- figure 7d shows that the opening line 6 can also take another form.
- a gripping means 8 may be attached to the opening line 6 or to the opening zone 7, in order to facilitate the opening operation of the tubular sheet, particular of the opening area of this sheet.
- This gripping means may for example consist of a tongue sealed to the tubular sheet or integral with the end of a rope in the case where the latter materialize said opening line 6.
- the figure 8 represents a variant of the subject of the present invention in which the package comprises a message zone 15.
- This zone may for example be made by a solid area of light color within the printing (patterns) of the tubular sheet 2.
- it may also be constituted by a writable support 16, such as an envelope or a label, attached to the tubular sheet of the package.
- this message area may also be constituted by an adhesive surface 17 which can be exposed after having removed a protective film 17a.
- Another solution is to provide for the message zone 15 to consist of a combination formed of the writable support 16 attached to the adhesive surface 17. In the latter case, a combination formed of compatible materials will be favored so that it can be removed and handed over. several times without damage the writable support on the adhesive surface.
- the figure 9b shows that it is also possible to provide an assembly means 18, such as an incision formed in the tubular sheet 2 to be able to slide at least partially the writable support 16.
- the assembly means 18 may also consist of an attached pouch, an adhesive or an adhesive substance, or a ribbon for example.
- the tubular sheet is advantageously lined with a protective sheet, preferably internal, which prevents shocks.
- a protective sheet preferably internal, which prevents shocks.
- Such anti-shock sheets may typically consist of an air bubble film, a foam film or a corrugated cardboard.
- This protective sheet not shown in the figures, could also provide thermal protection to the packaged object or provide impermeable protection, including water. In the latter case, a plasticized film or film could be used, superimposed, as lining the tubular sheet while retaining the flexibility of the packaging material obtained.
- the figure 10 refers to an assembly 11 formed of a plurality of packagings 1 packaged in roll.
- these packages are arranged in a row and are joined to each other by a fragile connection 20 to be dissociated or preferably torn.
- a connection can be made by a line of perforations, by a line of weakness of the material or by the addition, between two adjacent packages, of at least one easily tearable connecting member.
- Such a connecting member could be formed of a self-adhesive paper clip for example.
- the assembly 11 may also take the form of an accordion stack of these packages.
- each of these packages can be variable and standardized so as to offer a range suitable for almost all the objects that one wishes to wrap.
- the object of the present invention makes it possible to benefit from a package, or a set of such packages, which can be used very quickly to wrap all sorts of objects.
- the assembly 11 has the advantage of providing ready-to-use packaging in a convenient form for storage and use.
- these packages incorporate a zone labeling and may be closed without the addition of any accessory or additional material.
- they incorporate a means facilitating their opening during the unpacking operation.
