Description

Secteur technique de l'inventionTechnical sector of the invention

L'invention s'applique aux emballages comprenant un corps cylindrique doté d'une base d'un coté et, sur le coté opposé au corps cylindrique, un couvercle équipé d'un système d'ouverture permettant d'accéder et de verser le contenu de l'emballage ainsi constitué. Plus spécifiquement, l'invention porte sur un moyen de maintenir les conditions d'hygiènes des emballages plus communément connus sous le nom de « boites » ou « Canettes ».The invention applies to packages comprising a cylindrical body having a base on one side and, on the side opposite to the cylindrical body, a lid equipped with an opening system for accessing and pouring the contents. of the packaging thus constituted. More specifically, the invention relates to a means of maintaining the hygienic conditions of packages more commonly known as "boxes" or "cans".

Antécédents relatifs à l'inventionAntecedents relating to the invention

En matière de packaging, l'utilisation de récipients métalliques habituellement appelés « canettes » pour la distribution des boissons est une solution connue, satisfaisante et largement répandue dans le monde entier.In terms of packaging, the use of metal containers usually called "cans" for the distribution of beverages is a known solution, satisfactory and widespread throughout the world.

Bien que ces emballages protègent leur contenu de la contamination extérieure, la surface externe de ces emballages est en contact avec différentes machines, opérateurs et ambiances depuis leur remplissage jusqu'au moment de la consommation du contenu par le client final.
Habituellement, les boissons contenues dans ces emballages se consomment directement sans avoir recours à un verre ou tout autre accessoire. Le contenu et la bouche du consommateur entrent en contact avec diverses parties de la surface externe de cet emballage avant que le dit contenu ne soit ingéré.
Quand bien même le consommateur aurait recours à un verre, au moment de verser, le contenu entre obligatoirement en contact avec la zone qui entoure l'ouverture de la boite.Although these packagings protect their contents from external contamination, the external surface of these packagings is in contact with different machines, operators and atmospheres from their filling until the time of consumption of the content by the end customer.
Usually, the drinks contained in these packages are consumed directly without the use of a glass or any other accessory. The contents and mouth of the consumer come into contact with various parts of the outer surface of this package before said contents are ingested.
Even if the consumer would have recourse to a glass, at the moment of pouring, the contents necessarily come into contact with the zone which surrounds the opening of the box.

Entre l'étape de remplissage et sertissage, la boite ou canette, passe par différentes étapes de stockage, transport, distribution, exposition et vente avant de finalement arriver dans les mains du consommateur. Bien que les acteurs en charge de ces différentes étapes s'efforcent de maintenir des conditions d'hygiènes adaptées, poussières et germes parviennent à s'accumuler sur ces boites, principalement pendant les étapes de stockage et transport, sans control des conditions de salubrité.
Ceci ayant comme conséquence d'affecter négativement l'état extérieur des boites d'une part et d'être la cause de transmission de maladie, d'autre part.Between the filling and crimping step, the box or can, goes through different stages of storage, transport, distribution, exhibition and sale before finally reaching the consumer's hands. Although the actors in charge of these different steps strive to maintain adapted hygienic conditions, dust and germs manage to accumulate on these boxes, mainly during the storage and transport stages, without control of the sanitary conditions.
This has the consequence of negatively affecting the external state of the boxes on the one hand and being the cause of disease transmission, on the other hand.

Afin d'éviter cette accumulation de substances étranges plus particulièrement sur la partie supérieure des boites, on peut recourir actuellement à des enveloppes plastiques qui recouvrent et regroupent un ensemble de boites, ceci en facilite le stockage et le transport. Cependant cette solution n'est pas totalement satisfaisante dans la mesure où les lots ainsi formés ne sont pas totalement fermés et ne sont donc pas une barrière efficace contre les poussières et germes.
D'autre part, cette solution n'est que partielle dans la mesure où elle n'est pas applicable aux boites vendues individuellement ou aux boites hors standard.In order to avoid this accumulation of strange substances more particularly on the upper part of the boxes, it is currently possible to resort to plastic envelopes which cover and group a set of boxes, this facilitates storage and transport. However this solution is not completely satisfactory insofar as the batches thus formed are not completely closed and are therefore not an effective barrier against dust and germs.
On the other hand, this solution is only partial insofar as it is not applicable to boxes sold individually or to non-standard boxes.

L'invention actuelle prétend améliorer la protection hygiénique grâce à une enveloppe applicable à chaque boite individuelle qui couvre efficacement la partie supérieure de telle sorte qu'il est possible d'éviter l'accumulation de saleté et ou de germes depuis l'application de cette enveloppe jusqu'au moment de la consommation du contenu de la boite.The current invention claims to improve the hygienic protection through an envelope applicable to each individual box that effectively covers the upper part so that it is possible to avoid the accumulation of dirt and germs since the application of this envelope until the moment of consumption of the contents of the box.

Explication de l'inventionExplanation of the invention

L'objet de la présente invention est un emballage du type « canette » ou « boite » qui comprend :

  • Une capsule qui couvre le couvercle supérieur serti sur le corps cylindrique et une étiquette termo-rétractable qui couvre au moins partiellement la capsule et le corps cylindrique.
  • L'étiquette termo-rétractable comprime et maintient la capsule supérieure contre le couvercle. La partie de l'étiquette termo-rétractable adjacente à la capsule est détachable du reste de l'étiquette termo-rétractable pour permettre de séparer la capsule du couvercle supérieur.
The object of the present invention is a package of the "can" or "box" type which comprises:
  • A capsule that covers the top cover crimped on the cylindrical body and a termo-retractable label that at least partially covers the capsule and the cylindrical body.
  • The termo-retractable label compresses and holds the top cap against the lid. The portion of the termo-retractable label adjacent to the capsule is detachable from the remainder of the termo-retractable label to allow separation of the capsule from the top lid.

Selon une autre caractéristique de la présente invention, l'étiquette termo-rétractable couvrant la canette est pourvue de pré-découpes dans la zone correspondant à la capsule de la canette, de telle sorte qu'on puisse proprement déchirer la partie supérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable et ainsi retirer la capsule supérieure.According to another characteristic of the present invention, the termo-retractable label covering the bobbin is provided with pre-cuts in the zone. corresponding to the capsule of the can, so that the upper part of the termo-retractable label can be torn and thus remove the upper capsule.

Conformément à une autre caractéristique de la présente invention, l'étiquette termo-rétractable est pourvue d'une languette prévue pour améliorer la préhension de la partie supérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable au moment de la séparer par déchirement, du reste de l'étiquette termo-rétractable .According to another characteristic of the present invention, the termo-retractable label is provided with a tongue provided to improve the grip of the upper part of the termo-retractable label at the time of tearing it apart from the rest of the termo-retractable label.

Selon une autre caractéristique de la présente invention, la capsule supérieure est de forme circulaire coïncidant substantiellement avec la surface totale du couvercle de la boite.According to another characteristic of the present invention, the upper capsule is circular in shape substantially coinciding with the total surface of the lid of the box.

Une autre caractéristique de la présente invention réside dans le fait que la capsule est en carton.Another feature of the present invention is that the capsule is made of cardboard.

Une autre caractéristique de la présente invention réside dans le fait que la capsule est en plastique thermo-formé.Another feature of the present invention resides in the fact that the capsule is made of thermo-formed plastic.

Conformément à une autre caractéristique de la présente invention, la capsule supérieure est pourvue d'une ou plusieurs rainures prévues pour permettre l'empilement des boites les unes sur les autres.According to another feature of the present invention, the upper capsule is provided with one or more grooves provided to allow the stacking of the boxes on each other.

Une autre caractéristique de la présente invention réside dans le fait que la boite comprend une couche d'un matériau absorbant l'humidité, insérée entre la face externe du corps cylindrique de la boite et la face intérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable , l'étiquette termo-rétractable étant pourvue de micro-perforations adaptées pour permettre l'évaporation du liquide ou fluide absorbé par le dit matériau absorbant.Another feature of the present invention lies in the fact that the box comprises a layer of a moisture absorbing material, inserted between the outer face of the cylindrical body of the box and the inner face of the termo-retractable label, the thermo-retractable label being provided with micro-perforations adapted to allow evaporation of the liquid or fluid absorbed by said absorbent material.

Une autre caractéristique de la présente invention réside dans le fait que le matériau absorbant est à base de papier. II s'agit préférablement d'un papier crêpé, à base de fibres de cellulose recyclées dont le grammage en au moins de 80 Gr/m2.Another feature of the present invention is that the absorbent material is paper based. It is preferably a creped paper, based on recycled cellulose fibers having a basis weight of at least 80 Gr / m2.

Une alternative consiste à utiliser un papier synthétique à base de fibres de polymères plastiques tel que le polypropylène.An alternative is to use a synthetic paper based on plastic polymer fibers such as polypropylene.

Enfin, une autre caractéristique de la présente invention est que le récipient fermé situé à l'intérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable , est une canette ou une boite de boisson.Finally, another feature of the present invention is that the closed container located within the termo-retractable label, is a can or a can of drink.

Description détallée des dessinsDetailed description of the drawings

Sur ces dits dessins, on apprécie diverses formes de réalisation de la présente invention.In these drawings, various embodiments of the present invention are appreciated.

Dans la description des dits dessins, en guise de récipient, on utilise un récipient plus communément sous le nom de canettes, plus particulièrement celles utilisées pour le conditionnement des boissons, et ce type de récipient constitue la forme de réalisation principalement ciblée par l'invention. Bien que l'on pourrait utiliser n'importe quel autre récipient pouvant être habillé d'une étiquette termo-rétractable et d'une capsule telle que définie dans les revendications jointes.In the description of said drawings, as a container, a container is used more commonly as cans, more particularly those used for the packaging of beverages, and this type of container is the embodiment mainly targeted by the invention. . Although one could use any other container that can be dressed with a termo-retractable label and a capsule as defined in the appended claims.

Concrètement, la Fig.1 montre une vue latérale en coupe d'une de ces récipients ( canette) avec la capsule supérieure 6 placée sur le couvercle 4 de la dite canette, et l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 sur le point d'être ajustée/rétractée en entourant le corps cylindrique 2 du récipient 1 et partiellement le couvercle 4 et la base 3. Le matériau de l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 peut être, par exemple, n'importe quel film plastique thermo-rétractil qui au passage sur la ligne de conditionnement idoine et en lui appliquant la chaleur nécessaire, s'ajusterait substantiellement au contour de la canette, comprimant et retenant ainsi la capsule supérieure 6 contre le couvercle 4 de la dite canette. Cette étape de dépose de la capsule supérieure 6 et l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 peut se faire dans l'atelier de conditionnement/remplissage directement après le sertissage hermétique des canettes avec pour avantage le fait que le couvercle 4 se trouve à peine exposé à l'attaque d'agents externes nuisibles à la santé.
De cette manière, la dite capsule 6 protège le couvercle 4 de la canette jusqu'au moment de sa consommation tel que cela figure sur le dessin 2b.
D'autre part, la capsule 6 peut être de n'importe quelle matière qui aurait la résistance mécanique suffisante pour résister au impactes que pourrait subir le récipient 1 pendant le transport ou le stockage et qui, en même temps, a les caractéristiques alimentaires minimales dans la mesure où il est en contact avec le couvercle 4 de la canette.
Parmi les matériaux utilisés dans les formes les plus courantes de l'invention on peut mentionner différents types de plastiques et de carton.Concretely, Fig.1 shows a sectional side view of one of these containers (can) with the upper capsule 6 placed on the cover 4 of said can, and the termo-retractable label 7 about to be adjusted / retracted by surrounding the cylindrical body 2 of the container 1 and partially the cover 4 and the base 3. The material of the termo-retractable label 7 may be, for example, any plastic film thermo-retractile which in the process on the appropriate packaging line and applying the necessary heat, would adjust substantially to the contour of the can, compressing and thus holding the upper cap 6 against the cover 4 of said can. This step of removing the upper capsule 6 and the termo-retractable label 7 can be done in the packaging / filling workshop directly after the hermetic crimping cans with the advantage that the cover 4 is barely exposed to the attack of external agents harmful to health.
In this way, said capsule 6 protects the lid 4 of the can until the moment of its consumption as shown in the drawing 2b.
On the other hand, the capsule 6 may be of any material which would have sufficient mechanical strength to withstand the impact that the container 1 could undergo during transport or storage and which, at the same time, has the minimum nutritional characteristics insofar as it is in contact with the lid 4 of the can.
Among the materials used in the most common forms of the invention may be mentioned various types of plastics and cardboard.

De plus, l'étiquette termo-rétractable elle-même, peut être utilisée en guise de support d'impression pour les logos, marques ou quelque autre information relative au produit contenu dans les canettes.In addition, the termo-retractable label itself can be used as a print medium for logos, brands or other product information contained in the cans.

La Fig. 2a représente le récipient 1 de l'invention une fois fixée l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7. Comme cela peut s'apprécier sur cette vue, l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 s'adapte totalement au contour de la canette avec pour conséquence de ne pas affecter sa forme. De plus cette adaptation au contour de la canette, agit de manière à enserrer et retenir la capsule supérieure 6 contre le couvercle 4. Evidemment, la forme de la capsule supérieure 6 préférée, est telle qu'elle s'adapte à la forme du couvercle 4 de manière à couvrir toute la superficie de ce dernier. Cette configuration contribue à l'amélioration des conditions d'hygiène.Fig. 2a represents the container 1 of the invention once fixed the termo-retractable label 7. As can be appreciated in this view, the termo-retractable label 7 fully adapts to the outline of the can with the consequence of do not affect his form. Moreover this adaptation to the outline of the can, acts to grip and hold the upper cap 6 against the lid 4. Obviously, the shape of the upper capsule 6 is preferred, so that it adapts to the shape of the lid 4 so as to cover the entire area of the latter. This configuration contributes to the improvement of hygiene conditions.

Egalement, sur la Fig. 2 on remarque que la protection apportée tant par la capsule 6 que par l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7, est propre à chaque canette. De telle sorte que même dans le cas ou le consommateur n'achète qu'une canette à la fois ( plus de 50% des cas), la protection hygiénique de la dite canette reste garantie jusqu'à ce que le consommateur se décide à l'ouvrir. Ceci n'est pas vrai pour les systèmes utilisés jusqu'à ce jour pour lesquels la protection s'applique à un groupe de canettes identiques. Dans ce cas, une canette prise isolément, n'est plus protégée par ces systèmes.Also, in FIG. 2 we note that the protection provided by both the capsule 6 and the termo-retractable label 7, is specific to each can. In such a way that even if the consumer only buys one can at a time (more than 50% of the cases), the hygienic protection of the said can remains guaranteed until the consumer decides to do so. 'open. This is not true for systems used to date for which protection applies to a group of identical cans. In this case, a bobbin taken in isolation, is no longer protected by these systems.

Sur la Fig. 2b on observe exactement la même forme de réalisation que celle de la forme figurant sur la Fig. 2a mais dans ce cas, avec la capsule supérieure 6 et la zone correspondante de l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 soulevées et partiellement détachées.
De plus, tel que cela peut s'apprécier sur les deux figures, l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 est dotée de pré-découpes ou marques 8 qui facilitent la séparation de cette zone de l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 et de la capsule supérieure 6 de la part du consommateur. Ce dernier doit simplement tirer sur la zone supérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 pour découvrir le couvercle 4 ; En tirant sur la dite zone supérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7, cette dernière peut entraîner avec elle la capsule supérieure 6 ( grâce à la dépose d'un adhésif ou tout autre élément d'union des 2 composants) ou bien la capsule supérieure 6 peut simplement rester librement posée sur le couvercle 4 et être retirée facilement par le consommateur.In FIG. 2b exactly the same embodiment as that of the form shown in FIG. 2a but in this case, with the upper capsule 6 and the corresponding area of the termo-retractable label 7 raised and partially detached.
In addition, as can be appreciated in both figures, the termo-retractable label 7 is provided with pre-cuts or marks 8 which facilitate the separation of this area of the termo-retractable label 7 and the capsule superior 6 on the part of the consumer. The latter must simply pull on the upper zone of the termo-retractable label 7 to discover the lid 4; By pulling on said upper zone of the termo-retractable label 7, the latter can carry with it the upper capsule 6 (thanks to the removal of an adhesive or any other element of union of the 2 components) or the capsule upper 6 can simply remain freely posed on the cover 4 and be easily removed by the consumer.

Dans une autre forme de réalisation préférée, non présentée dans les figures bien que définie dans les revendications, la zone supérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 est pourvue d'une languette de telle sorte que le consommateur peut tirer plus facilement sur la dite étiquette termo-rétractable 7 et découvrir le couvercle 4.In another preferred embodiment, not shown in the figures although defined in the claims, the upper zone of the termo-retractable label 7 is provided with a tongue so that the consumer can pull more easily on said termo-retractable label 7 and discover the lid 4.

Les Figs. 3a y 3b montrent une autre forme de réalisation de l'invention dans laquelle la capsule supérieure 6 comporte une rainure ou des rainures 9 dans le but de faciliter l'empilement de plusieurs récipients 1 ( Fig. 3b). Tel que l'on peut l'apprécier sur les deux figures, le profil de ces rainures 9 est tel qu'il permet d'accoupler le bourrelet externe de la base 3 avec le fond de la rainure ou des rainures 9. cette caractéristique apporte plus de stabilité aux récipients 1 pour leur stockage ou sur les lieux de vente. D'autre part, les modes de déchirement de la zone supérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 et d'extraction de la capsule supérieure 6 est le même que celui décrit par les Figs. 2a et 2b. Dans ce cas, il faut simplement prendre en compte que le matériau de la capsule 6 doit être suffisamment résistent pour supporter le poids de plusieurs récipients 1 sans se déformer.Figs. 3a and 3b show another embodiment of the invention in which the upper capsule 6 has a groove or grooves 9 for the purpose of facilitating the stacking of several containers 1 (FIG 3b). As can be appreciated in the two figures, the profile of these grooves 9 is such that it makes it possible to couple the outer bead of the base 3 with the bottom of the groove or grooves 9. this characteristic brings more stability to containers 1 for storage or at the point of sale. On the other hand, the tearing modes of the upper zone of the termo-retractable label 7 and extraction of the upper capsule 6 is the same as that described in FIGS. 2a and 2b. In this case, it must be taken into account that the material of the capsule 6 must be sufficiently resistant to support the weight of several containers 1 without deforming.

Une autre forme de réalisation préférée présentée sur la Fig. 4 indique que entre l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 et le corps cylindrique 2 du récipient 1, a été inséré un matériau absorbant 10, préférablement du papier. L'objet de ce matériau absorbant 10 est de préserver ou atteindre une température idoine pour la consommation du contenu de la canette particulièrement dans les situations ou le consommateur ne dispose pas de moyens de réfrigération artificiels tel qu'un réfrigérateur.Another preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 4 indicates that between the termo-retractable label 7 and the cylindrical body 2 of the container 1, was inserted an absorbent material 10, preferably paper. The purpose of this absorbent material 10 is to preserve or reach a suitable temperature for the consumption of the contents of the can especially in situations where the consumer does not have artificial refrigeration means such as a refrigerator.

Le récipient 1 de la Fig.4 peut être plongé, par exemple dans l'eau d'un étang, d'un lac ou dans l'eau de mer de manière à ce que le matériau 10 s'imprègne du liquide dans lequel il est plongé au travers des micro-perforations( Non présentée sur les figures) réalisées sur l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7. Une fois que le dit récipient 1 est sorti du liquide dans lequel il était plongé, ce dernier commence à s'évaporer lentement ( flèches de la Fig.4), au travers des micro-perforations en provoquant une diminution de la température du contenu de la canette du à la consommation de calories nécessaires à l'évaporation. Le contenu du récipient 1 acquière ainsi une température plus adaptée à sa consommation particulièrement en période estivale.The container 1 of Fig.4 can be immersed, for example in the water of a pond, a lake or in seawater so that the material 10 impregnates the liquid in which it is immersed through the micro-perforations (not shown in the figures) made on the termo-retractable label 7. Once said container 1 is out of the liquid in which it was immersed, the latter begins to evaporate slowly (arrows of Fig.4), through the micro-perforations causing a decrease in the temperature of the contents of the can from the consumption of calories needed for evaporation. The contents of the container 1 thus acquires a temperature more adapted to its consumption, particularly in the summer period.

Le papier constituant le matériau absorbant est préférablement un papier crêpé à base de fibres de cellulose recyclées et dont le grammage est supérieur à 80 gr/m2.The paper constituting the absorbent material is preferably a creped paper made from recycled cellulose fibers and whose grammage is greater than 80 gr / m2.

Un papier à base de fibres de polymères plastiques tel que le polypropylène est une alternative.A paper based on plastic polymer fibers such as polypropylene is an alternative.

Finalement, dans le but de mieux comprendre l'invention, la Fig. 5 montre une vue supérieure en perspective du récipient 1 avec la zone supérieure de l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 et
La capsule supérieure correspondant 6 soulevées. Tel que l'on peut l'apprécier, le couvercle 4 de la canette est totalement découvert et prêt à être ouvert pour la consommation du contenu.Finally, for the purpose of better understanding the invention, FIG. 5 shows an upper perspective view of the container 1 with the upper zone of the termo-retractable label 7 and
The corresponding upper capsule 6 raised. As can be appreciated, the lid 4 of the bobbin is fully exposed and ready to be opened for consumption of the contents.

II est à noter, entre autre, les avantages de la présente invention en terme de protection hygiénique, de présentation extérieure ( qui apporte plus de fiabilité au produit dans l'esprit du consommateur ). De plus, l'invention réduit l'impact sur le recyclage des boites dans la mesure ou l'étiquette termo-rétractable 7 n'est pas collée sur le corps cylindrique 2 de la canette et peuvent de fait être traité séparément.
D'autre part, l'atelier de remplissage des canettes n'a plus obligation de tenir en stock tous les types de canettes imprimées correspondant à chaque marque.
Les canettes anonymes peuvent être habillées et personnalisées après remplissage avec l'étiquette termo-rétractable correspondant à leur contenu.
La capsule supérieure 6 peut s'utiliser pour supporter ou véhiculer différentes promotions qui récompensent le consommateur du contenu ou peut simplement servir de support publicitaire.It should be noted, among other things, the advantages of the present invention in terms of hygienic protection, external presentation (which brings more reliability to the product in the mind of the consumer). In addition, the invention reduces the impact on the recycling of the boxes in that the termo-retractable label 7 is not bonded to the cylindrical body 2 of the can and can in fact be treated separately.
On the other hand, the can filling workshop is no longer required to keep in stock all types of printed cans corresponding to each brand.
The anonymous cans can be dressed and personalized after filling with the termo-retractable label corresponding to their contents.
The upper capsule 6 can be used to support or convey different promotions that reward the consumer of the content or can simply serve as an advertising medium.

Ainsi décrite la nature de la présente invention et la manière de la mettre en pratique, il est à noter que tout cela n'altère, ne change ou ne modifie en rien son principe fondamental, et peut être sujet à des variations de détail.Thus described the nature of the present invention and the manner of putting it into practice, it should be noted that all this does not alter, change or modify in any way its fundamental principle, and may be subject to variations of detail.
