Definitions

• the present invention relates to a packaging box for substantially oblong products such as bottles or bottles of glass or plastic, each product having an intermediate portion of overall width greater than that of its ends, the box comprising a bottom and a cap in cardboard sheet material or corrugated cardboard.
• It also relates to a blank or a set of blanks making it possible to obtain such a box of packaging.
• Such packaging makes it possible to limit the width of the package, which in fact corresponds substantially to that of the bottles themselves, the plastic film being of a very thin thickness.
• the plastic film must be torn for the shelving of the products and their placement one by one in the shelves. This leads to loss of time related to the many manipulations to which are added the difficulties to store the products in an aligned manner. There is also a lack of orientation and / or the risk of falls due to a lack of stability when a consumer delivers a product on the shelf.
• the palatability of filmed products is more unstable, the film tends to relax over time. It may also have been poorly manufactured and / or poorly put in place during the formation of the packaging, given the sometimes random conditions of shrinkage related to the temperature of the furnace upstream, to untimely differences in the speed of movement of plastic films during their continuous installation, or even the quality of the plastic used, often poorly controlled.
• Such packages have indeed extra thicknesses when they are paled side by side. As a result, the total width of a packaging layer is greater than with plastic films.
• the present invention therefore aims first of all to overcome the disadvantages mentioned above of the types of packaging of the prior art, whether in the form of plastic film or cardboard, while having their advantages.

• the caps, respectively 105, 106, 107 are, for their part, either of the conventional type (105) as described with reference to FIG. 2, or of the type enveloping (106, 107) with cut sides 108 conforming laterally to the shape of the bottom or the cap.
• FIG. 23 is a section according to another embodiment of the invention comprising a series of four rectangular flaps, 109, 110, 111, 112, connected together, where appropriate, by parallel fold lines, to namely a main flap 111 forming the bottom provided laterally on its two free flap edges 111 'with end tab 113 on either side, two side flaps 110 and 112 perforated according to the invention respectively attached to the side and other to the main flap 111, forming the perforated side walls, and an end flap 109 attached to one of the side flaps forming the perforated upper wall, this flap 110 comprising on its outer edge a tab 114 of bonding, just as the shutter 112.
• the products 2 (for example six in number) are placed in a row in a known manner in itself, plugs 5 plated on the central flap.
• the cap 7 is then fed over, the parts 4 of the products 2 being inserted into the holes 12 vis-à-vis the upper flap, then the side walls 8 and 9 of the cap, here again also previously glued internally are folded down , the lower ends being vis-à-vis screw vertical walls of the tray with which they come cooperate by gluing, the intermediate parts 3 of the products then return to insert into the side orifices 11, to obtain the package 1 of Figure 2, which can then be stored and transported .
