Description

L'invention concerne des emballages en carton dur et plus particulièrement un emballage pourvu d'un réceptacle possédant un fond, des parois fixées sur ce fond et un couvercle fixé également au fond à l'aide d'une bande pliable, dans lequel les parois du réceptacle sont pliables, d'une première position essentiellement « à plat », vers une deuxième position en mode « déplié », caractérisé en ce qu'au moins deux parois opposées comprennent une première partie et, reliée à elle, une deuxième partie, les deux parties permettant, dans la position dépliée, de coincer entre elles une partie reliée aux parois qui se trouve entre ces parois opposées, pour de cette façon, fixer les parois dans la position dépliée.The invention relates to hardboard packages and more particularly to a package provided with a receptacle having a bottom, walls fixed thereto and a cover also secured to the bottom by means of a foldable strip, wherein the walls of the receptacle are collapsible, from a first substantially "flat" position, to a second "unfolded" position, characterized in that at least two opposite walls comprise a first portion and, connected thereto, a second portion, the two parts allowing, in the unfolded position, to wedge between them a portion connected to the walls which is between these opposite walls, to thereby fix the walls in the unfolded position.

Dans l'industrie de l'emballage, il est usuel d'emballer des produits dans des boîtes en carton. Une boîte traditionnelle comprend un réceptacle comportant un fond, en forme de rectangle, et quatre parois fixées au fond. De plus, la boîte comprend un couvercle, en général de la même forme que le réceptacle, à peine plus large pour permettre à ce couvercle de recouvrir le réceptacle. En position fermée, les parois du couvercle enveloppent les parois du réceptacle. Une autre forme de boîte en carton souvent utilisée est une boîte comportant un réceptacle tel que décrit ci-dessus, dans laquelle le couvercle est fixé, à l'aide d'un pli, à une des parois du réceptacle.In the packaging industry, it is customary to package products in cardboard boxes. A traditional box comprises a receptacle having a bottom, shaped rectangle, and four walls attached to the bottom. In addition, the box includes a lid, generally of the same shape as the receptacle, slightly wider to allow this cover to cover the receptacle. In the closed position, the lid walls envelop the walls of the receptacle. Another form of cardboard box often used is a box having a receptacle as described above, in which the lid is attached, with the aid of a fold, to one of the walls of the receptacle.

Les boîtes en carton peuvent être fabriquées de telle sorte qu'elles comportent un élément intérieur, permettant de disposer un produit au fond de la boîte et d'assurer sa stabilité et dans lesquelles cet élément intérieur est pourvu d'un creux, ayant généralement la forme du produit à emballer.The cardboard boxes can be made in such a way that they have an inner element, which makes it possible to dispose a product at the bottom of the box and to ensure its stability, and in which this inner element is provided with a hollow, generally having the form of the product to be packaged.

Les boîtes en carton dur représentent un moyen très efficace, léger et économique permettant l'emballage d'un grand nombre de produits. C'est la raison pour laquelle les emballages durs sont utilisés très souvent.Hardboard boxes are a very effective, lightweight and economical way of packaging a large number of products. This is the reason why hard packs are used very often.

Néanmoins, les emballages en carton dur présentent le désavantage de prendre beaucoup de place une fois qu'ils sont assemblés. Le volume extérieur des boîtes en carton est fixe, même si ces boîtes sont vides. Cela signifie que le dépôt et le transport des cartons vides représentent un coût important. Le but de l'invention est donc de fournir un emballage en carton qui, d'un côté présente tous les avantages des boîtes en carton dur traditionnelles, et de l'autre ne présente pas le désavantage du stockage et du transport des emballages traditionnels.Nevertheless, hardboard packaging has the disadvantage of taking up a lot of space once it is assembled. The outer volume of the cardboard boxes is fixed, even if these boxes are empty. This means that the deposit and transport of empty cartons represents a significant cost. The object of the invention is therefore to provide a cardboard package which on one side has all the advantages of traditional hardboard boxes, and on the other does not have the disadvantage of storing and transporting traditional packaging.

L'objet de l'invention est un emballage pourvu d'un réceptacle possédant un fond, des parois fixées sur ce fond et un couvercle fixé également au fond à l'aide d'une bande pliable, dans lequel les parois du réceptacle sont pliables, d'une première position essentiellement « à plat », vers une deuxième position en mode « dépliée », dans lequel au moins deux parois opposées comprennent une première, et reliée à elle, une deuxième partie, les deux permettant dans la position dépliée, de coincer entre les première et deuxième parties de cette paroi opposée, une partie des parois qui se trouve entre ces parois opposées, pour dans cette façon, fixer les parois dans la position dépliée et dans lequel la deuxième partie est pourvue, sous la forme d'un pli, d'un élément permettant de maintenir les parois dans leur position dépliée.The object of the invention is a package provided with a receptacle having a bottom, walls fixed on this bottom and a lid also attached to the bottom by means of a foldable strip, in which the walls of the receptacle are foldable from a first substantially "flat" position to a second "unfolded" position, in which at least two opposite walls comprise a first, and connected thereto, a second portion, both allowing in the unfolded position, to wedge between the first and second parts of this opposite wall, a part of the walls which lies between these opposite walls, in this way, to fix the walls in the unfolded position and in which the second part is provided, in the form of a fold, an element to maintain the walls in their unfolded position.

L'emballage selon l'invention comprend tous les éléments permettant d'emballer et de protéger un produit, de la même façon qu'avec un emballage traditionnel. Par contre, les emballages peuvent être stockés et transportés dans leur forme « à plat », donc avec peu d'encombrement. Une fois que l'utilisateur a déplié l'emballage, les parois sont tirées vers l'extérieur en position « dépliée » et l'emballage est prêt à l'emploi. La juxtaposition des différents éléments des parois, assurant ensemble la fixation des parois dans la position « dépliée », permet une stabilité certaine de l'emballage.The packaging according to the invention comprises all the elements for packaging and protecting a product, in the same way as with traditional packaging. By cons, packaging can be stored and transported in their "flat" form, so with little space. Once the user has unfolded the package, the walls are pulled out in the "unfolded" position and the package is ready for use. The juxtaposition of the different elements of walls, ensuring together the fixing of the walls in the "unfolded" position, allows a certain stability of the package.

Il faut noter que, dans l'art antérieur, il existe un emballage commercialisé sous le nom « China ». Un tel emballage est montré dans la figure 1. Celui-ci est montré en référence à la figure 1.It should be noted that, in the prior art, there is a package marketed under the name "China". Such packaging is shown in the figure 1 . This one is shown with reference to the figure 1 .

L'emballage « China » 10 comporte un fond 11 et un couvercle 12. Le fond 11 est relié via un premier pli 13 à un élément intermédiaire 14 et un deuxième pli 15 relié au couvercle 12. En son autre côté, le fond 11 est relié, via un pli 16, à une partie 17, présentant les mêmes dimensions que la partie 14. En utilisant les plis 13 et 16, les éléments 14 et 17 peuvent être dépliés d'une première position, essentiellement dans le même plan que le fond 11, vers une deuxième position « dépliée » dans laquelle les éléments 14 et 17 sont déplacés perpendiculairement au fond 11. Sur les éléments 14 et 17, des parois 18 et 19 sont assemblées de telle façon qu'en pliant les éléments 14 et 17 vers leur position « dépliée », les parois 18 et 19 sont automatiquement assemblées perpendiculairement au fond 11. Le fond 11 et les parois 14, 17, 18 et 19 forment ensemble un réceptacle. Ce réceptacle peut être fermé en utilisant le pli 15. Le couvercle 12 peut être plié en utilisant ce pli 15 pour fermer le réceptacle. Le couvercle 12 est, en son extrémité, pourvu d'un élément 20. Cet élément 20 est utilisé pour fixer le couvercle 12 sur le réceptacle. Dans l'élément 20 et l'élément 17, sont intégrés des aimants qui permettent de fixer le couvercle dans sa position « fermée ».The packaging "China" 10 comprises a bottom 11 and a cover 12. The bottom 11 is connected via a first fold 13 to an intermediate element 14 and a second fold 15 connected to the cover 12. At its other end, the bottom 11 is connected, via a fold 16, to a portion 17, having the same dimensions as the portion 14. By using the folds 13 and 16, the elements 14 and 17 can be unfolded from a first position, essentially in the same plane as the bottom 11, to a second "unfolded" position in which the elements 14 and 17 are moved perpendicular to the bottom 11. On the elements 14 and 17, walls 18 and 19 are assembled in such a way that by folding the elements 14 and 17 towards their "unfolded" position, the walls 18 and 19 are automatically assembled perpendicularly to the bottom 11. The bottom 11 and the walls 14, 17, 18 and 19 together form a receptacle. This receptacle can be closed using the fold 15. The cover 12 can be folded using this fold 15 to close the receptacle. The lid 12 is at its end provided with an element 20. This element 20 is used to attach the lid 12 to the receptacle. In the element 20 and the element 17, magnets are integrated which make it possible to fix the lid in its "closed" position.

Un premier désavantage de l'emballage « China », selon la figure 1, est que les parois ne sont pas fixées, dans leur position « dépliée » une fois que les éléments 14 et 17 sont dépliés dans la position perpendiculaire au fond 11. Si on laisse ces éléments 14 et 17 libres, ceux-ci reviennent dans leur position initiale. De plus, l'emballage « China » est limité par rapport aux parois 14, 17, 18 et 19.A first disadvantage of the "China" packaging, according to the figure 1 is that the walls are not fixed in their "unfolded" position once the elements 14 and 17 are unfolded in the position perpendicular to the bottom 11. If these elements 14 and 17 are left free, they return in their initial position. In addition, the packaging "China" is limited compared to the walls 14, 17, 18 and 19.

La configuration de l'emballage « China » ne permet pas une utilisation avec des parois d'une certaine épaisseur.The configuration of the packaging "China" does not allow use with walls of a certain thickness.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, l'emballage selon l'invention comprend des premières parties et des deuxièmes parties des parois opposées reliées à l'aide d'une bande intermédiaire dans laquelle la largeur de cette bande intermédiaire détermine la largeur de la paroi dans la position dépliée.According to a preferred embodiment, the packaging according to the invention comprises first parts and second parts of the opposite walls connected by means of an intermediate strip in which the width of this intermediate strip determines the width of the wall in the unfolded position.

En utilisant une partie intermédiaire entre les deux parties des parois, l'épaisseur finale des parois peut être destinée à plusieurs utilisations. Selon l'invention, l'épaisseur des parois peut être déterminée selon l'épaisseur de la partie intermédiaire.By using an intermediate part between the two parts of the walls, the final thickness of the walls can be intended for several uses. According to the invention, the thickness of the walls can be determined according to the thickness of the intermediate portion.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, l'emballage selon l'invention peut être pourvu d'un moyen de fermeture permettant de fixer le couvercle sous le récipient dans la position dépliée de l'emballage.According to a preferred embodiment, the packaging according to the invention may be provided with a closure means for fixing the lid under the container in the unfolded position of the package.

Dans un premier mode de réalisation, le moyen de fermeture comprend un premier aimant intégré dans une élément fixé au fond à l'aide d'un pli et un deuxième aimant intégré à un élément fixé au couvercle à l'aide d'un pli.In a first embodiment, the closure means comprises a first magnet integrated in an element fixed to the bottom by means of a fold and a second magnet integrated into an element fixed to the cover by means of a fold.

De façon alternative, l'emballage comprend un moyen de fermeture comportant une languette fixée au couvercle et une cannelure prévue dans l'une des parois du réceptacle, permettant de recevoir et de fixer la languette.Alternatively, the package comprises a closure means having a tongue attached to the cover and a groove provided in one of the walls of the receptacle, for receiving and securing the tongue.
