Description

DOMAINE TECHNIQUETECHNICAL AREA

La présente invention se rapporte au secteur technique des caisses, de préférence des caisses dites « américaines », et concerne une caisse intégrant un croisillon de séparation verticale de bouteilles, ainsi qu'un procédé de fabrication d'une telle caisse.The present invention relates to the technical sector of the boxes, preferably so-called "American" boxes, and relates to a box incorporating a cross vertical bottle separation, and a method of manufacturing such a box.

ART ANTERIEURPRIOR ART

Il est connu de l'état de la technique une caisse dite « américaine ». Ce type de caisse, généralement fabriquée en carton, comprend une forme générale parallélépipédique avec deux grandes faces prolongées à chaque extrémité par deux grands rabats, et deux petites faces prolongées à chaque extrémités par deux petits rabats.It is known from the state of the art a so-called "American" box. This type of box, generally made of cardboard, comprises a general parallelepiped shape with two large faces extended at each end by two large flaps, and two small faces extended at each end by two small flaps.

Ici, les termes « grandes » et « petites » définissent simplement des dimensions relatives l'une par rapport à l'autre. La dimension grande est seulement indiquée pour s'opposer à la dimension petite, et inversement.Here, the terms "large" and "small" simply define dimensions relative to one another. The large dimension is only indicated to oppose the small dimension, and vice versa.

La caisse américaine est généralement livrée et stockée en position plane, c'est-à-dire repliée le long de deux arrêtes diagonalement opposées.The American box is generally delivered and stored in a flat position, that is to say folded along two diagonally opposite edges.

Pour que la caisse américaine puisse recevoir des bouteilles, il convient de la déployer dans une position de réception en lui conférant une forme ouverte parallélépipédique, et de rabattre, dans un premier temps, les petits rabats de fond orthogonalement aux petites faces et vers le centre de la caisse et, dans un second temps, de rabattre les grands rabats de fond orthogonalement aux grandes faces, vers le centre de la caisse, et par-dessus les petits rabats. Les grands rabats sont ensuite collés sur les petits rabats. Le rabattement de ces rabats de fond permet de former le fond de la caisse américaine. Après avoir reçu les bouteilles, les petits et grands rabats supérieures sont rabattus et collés de la même manière pour former la partie supérieure de la caisse américaine.In order for the American box to receive bottles, it must be deployed in a reception position by giving it an open parallelepiped shape, and fold down, at first, the small bottom flaps orthogonally to the small faces and towards the center of the box and, in a second time, to fold down the large bottom flaps orthogonally to the large faces, towards the center of the box, and over the small flaps. The large flaps are then glued on the small flaps. The folding of these bottom flaps can form the bottom of the American fund. After receiving the bottles, the small and large upper flaps are folded and glued in the same way to form the upper part of the American box.

Dans une application préférée, une telle caisse est destinée à recevoir six ou douze bouteilles, telle que des bouteilles de vin par exemple. A cet effet, la caisse américaine comprend des éléments de séparation verticale des bouteilles, appelés croisillon.In a preferred application, such a box is intended to receive six or twelve bottles, such as bottles of wine for example. For this purpose, the American fund includes vertical separating elements of bottles, called braces.

Lorsque ces caisses américaines sont livrées chez un embouteilleur, celui-ci les intègre, en position plane, dans un procédé d'encaissage qui permet d'ouvrir les caisses et d'y insérer des bouteilles.When these American boxes are delivered to a bottler, it integrates them, in a flat position, in a boxing process that opens the boxes and insert bottles.

Dans l'état de la technique actuel, le croisillon reçu à l'intérieur de la caisse américaine est, d'une part réalisé par l'assemblage de deux pièces distinctes et, d'autre part solidarisé sur l'une des faces de la caisse américaine. Ce croisillon est conformé de sorte que, lors du déploiement de la caisse en position parallélépipédique, ledit croisillon initialement à plat se déploie pour être apte à former des casiers de séparation verticale entre les bouteilles.In the current state of the art, the spider received inside the American box is, firstly achieved by the assembly of two separate parts and, secondly secured to one of the faces of the American box. This brace is shaped so that, during the deployment of the body in parallelepipedic position, said initially flat brace is deployed to be able to form vertical separation bins between the bottles.

Cependant, un inconvénient inhérent à la structure de ce type de caisse américaine réside dans le fait qu'elle nécessite un sens d'utilisation, et notamment un sens d'intégration dans un procédé d'encaissage. En effet, il est nécessaire que la caisse en position plane soit intégrée dans le procédé d'encaissage de telle sorte qu'elle puisse être déployée avec la grande face, sur laquelle est collé le croisillon, agencée sur le dessus pour que, lors du déploiement de la caisse, le croisillon se déploie lui aussi et par la force de la gravité.However, a disadvantage inherent in the structure of this type of American fund lies in the fact that it requires a sense of use, including a sense of integration in a boxing process. Indeed, it is necessary that the box in planar position is integrated in the packing process so that it can be deployed with the large face, on which is glued the cross, arranged on the top so that, during the Deployment of the box, the spider is deployed also by the force of gravity.

Un second inconvénient de ce type de caisse américaine réside dans le fait que le croisillon n'a pas une bonne tenue à l'intérieur de la caisse.A second disadvantage of this type of American fund lies in the fact that the spider does not have a good performance inside the box.

Au surplus, un autre inconvénient réside dans le fait que le croisillon est intégré après la fabrication de la caisse. En effet, en pratique pour fixer le croisillon il est nécessaire de déployer la caisse, d'y insérer le croisillon et de le coller à l'intérieur sur l'une des faces. Le procédé de fabrication nécessite l'utilisation de plusieurs machines distinctes, notamment une machine pour fabriquer la caisse, une machine pour fabriquer le croisillon, une machine pour ouvrir la caisse fabriquée, insérer le croisillon et le coller à l'intérieur.In addition, another disadvantage lies in the fact that the spider is integrated after the manufacture of the box. Indeed, in practice to fix the cross it is necessary to deploy the body, to insert the cross and paste it on the inside on one of the faces. The manufacturing process requires the use of several separate machines, including a machine to manufacture the box, a machine to make the cross, a machine to open the box manufactured, insert the cross and paste it inside.

Ces étapes du procédé sont complexes et grèvent le coût de fabrication de la caisse américaine.These process steps are complex and weigh on the cost of manufacturing the American fund.

Il est également connu, d'une manière non avantageuse, un croisillon rapporté, non solidaire de l'intérieur de la caisse, devant être inséré dans la caisse directement par le client final.It is also known, in a non-advantageous manner, a reported brace, not integral with the interior of the body, to be inserted into the box directly by the end customer.

Les documents FR 2744388 A1 (préambule de la revendication 1) et US 2943762 A1 montrent des exemples de croisillons issus d'un seul panneau de carton.The documents FR 2744388 A1 (preamble of claim 1) and US 2943762 A1 show examples of braces from a single board.

EXPOSE DE L'INVENTIONSUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

L'invention vise à pallier aux inconvénients précités, et à fournir ainsi une caisse, de préférence de type américaine, pour la réception de bouteilles, intégrant un croisillon de séparation, ainsi qu'un procédé de fabrication d'une telle caisse intégrant directement le croisillon de séparation des bouteilles.The invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, and thus to provide a box, preferably American type, for the reception of bottles, incorporating a separation spider, and a method of manufacturing such a box directly integrating the bottle separation brace.

Un objectif de l'invention est de fournir une caisse ne présentant pas de sens d'introduction préféré dans un procédé d'encaissage de bouteilles dans ladite caisse.An object of the invention is to provide a box having no preferred direction of introduction in a method of packaging bottles in said box.

Un autre objectif de l'invention est de fournir une telle caisse dont le croisillon est maintenu fixement à l'intérieur de la caisse.Another object of the invention is to provide such a box whose spider is held securely inside the body.

L'invention vise à fournir un procédé de fabrication d'une telle caisse qui soit simple et peu onéreux à mettre en oeuvre, avec la caisse intégrant directement le croisillon lors de sa fabrication.The invention aims to provide a method of manufacturing such a box which is simple and inexpensive to implement, with the box directly integrating the spider during its manufacture.

A cet effet, il a été mis au point une caisse telle que définie à la revendication 1, de préférence en carton et conforme à l'état de la technique en ce qu'elle comprend deux grandes faces identiques opposées reliées à deux petites faces identiques opposées. Lesdites faces sont prolongées à leurs extrémités supérieures et inférieures par des rabats destinés à faire office de paroi de dessus et de paroi de fond.For this purpose, it has been developed a box as defined in claim 1, preferably cardboard and according to the state of the art in that it comprises two large opposite identical faces connected to two small identical faces opposed. Said faces are extended at their upper and lower ends by flaps intended to act as top wall and bottom wall.

Selon l'invention, la caisse comprend intérieurement un croisillon de séparation réalisé en une seule pièce. Le croisillon comprend :

  • des branches de séparation longitudinales collées à leurs extrémités aux deux petites faces de la caisse, et ;
  • des branches de séparation transversales collées à leurs extrémités aux deux grandes faces de la caisse.
According to the invention, the body internally comprises a separation spider made in one piece. The brace includes:
  • longitudinal separation branches glued at their ends to the two small faces of the box, and;
  • transverse separation branches glued at their ends to the two large faces of the body.

Lesdites branches de séparation transversales et longitudinales sont reliées entre elles de manière articulée pour passer d'une position plane, lorsque la caisse est dans une position plane repliée le long de deux arrêtes diagonalement opposées, à une position déployée de réception des bouteilles, concomitamment avec le déploiement de ladite caisse dans une position ouverte parallélépipédique. En position déployée de réception des bouteilles, les branches de séparation transversales et longitudinales forment des casiers aptes à recevoir chacun une bouteille.Said transverse and longitudinal separation branches are hinged together to move from a flat position, when the body is in a position plane folded along two diagonally opposite edges, in a deployed position of receiving the bottles, concomitantly with the deployment of said box in an open parallelepipedic position. In the extended bottle receiving position, the transverse and longitudinal separation branches form bins each capable of receiving a bottle.

Ainsi, selon l'invention, le croisillon est collé sur les quatre faces de la caisse de sorte que sa tenue est ferme. De plus, les branches du croisillon sont reliées entre elles de manière articulée de sorte que le simple déploiement de la caisse en position ouverte entraine concomitamment le déploiement du croisillon en position de réception des bouteilles. Le croisillon est réalisé en une seule pièce de sorte qu'il n'y a aucun risque d'en perdre une partie chez le client final. Enfin, une telle caisse peut être intégrée dans un procédé d'encaissage des bouteilles dans n'importe quel sens, le déploiement du croisillon est effectué par le déploiement de la caisse et ne dépend pas de son orientation. Le croisillon ne se déploie pas par la force de la gravité. Le risque d'un mauvais déploiement du croisillon dans un procédé d'encaissage automatique des bouteilles est supprimé.Thus, according to the invention, the spider is glued on the four sides of the body so that its behavior is firm. In addition, the branches of the brace are interconnected in an articulated manner so that the simple deployment of the body in the open position concurrently leads to the deployment of the spider in the receiving position of the bottles. The spider is made in one piece so there is no risk of losing part of it at the end customer. Finally, such a box can be integrated into a bottling process bottles in any direction, the deployment of the cross is performed by the deployment of the box and does not depend on its orientation. The brace does not deploy by the force of gravity. The risk of poor deployment of the spider in an automatic bottle packing process is eliminated.

Selon une forme de réalisation particulière de l'invention, le croisillon de séparation comprend, successivement dans des plans transversaux de la caisse, c'est-à-dire dans des plans parallèles aux parois supérieure et de fond de la caisse en position ouverte parallélépipédique :

  • une branche inférieure de séparation longitudinale dont les extrémités sont respectivement collées sur des zones correspondantes centrales des petites faces de la caisse ;
  • des première et deuxième branches inférieures de séparation transversales, reliées de manière articulée à la branche inférieure de séparation longitudinale, et dont les extrémités sont collées sur des zones correspondantes des grandes faces de la caisse, respectivement au tiers et aux deux tiers des largeurs desdites grandes faces ;
  • une branche supérieure de séparation longitudinale, reliée de manière articulée aux première et deuxième branches inférieures de séparation transversales, et dont les extrémités sont respectivement collées sur des zones correspondantes centrales des petites faces de la caisse ;
  • des première et deuxième branches supérieures de séparation transversales, reliées de manière articulée à la branche supérieure de séparation longitudinale, et dont les extrémités sont collées sur des zones correspondantes des grandes faces de la caisse, respectivement au tiers et aux deux tiers des largeurs desdites grandes faces.
According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the separation spider comprises, successively in transverse planes of the box, that is to say in planes parallel to the upper and lower walls of the box in the parallelepipedic open position. :
  • a lower longitudinal separation branch whose ends are respectively bonded to corresponding central areas of the small sides of the box;
  • first and second transverse lower transverse branches, connected in an articulated manner to the lower longitudinal separation branch, and whose ends are glued to corresponding areas of the large faces of the box, respectively to one-third and two-thirds of the widths of said large faces;

EXPOSE DETAILLE DE L'INVENTIONDETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

L'invention concerne une caisse (10), de préférence en carton et de type américaine, bien connue de l'état de la technique, notamment pour recevoir par exemple six bouteilles de vin. A cet effet, la caisse américaine (10) intègre un croisillon (1) de séparation verticale, conformé pour former six casiers de réception de bouteilles.The invention relates to a box (10), preferably cardboard and American type, well known in the state of the art, in particular to receive for example six bottles of wine. For this purpose, the American box (10) incorporates a cross (1) of vertical separation, shaped to form six bottles receiving bins.

La caisse (10) comprend ainsi deux grandes faces (3) identiques opposées reliées à deux petites faces (4) identiques opposées. Les termes « grandes » et « petites » définissent simplement des dimensions relatives l'une par rapport à l'autre. La dimension grande est indiquée pour s'opposer à la dimension petite, et inversement.The box (10) thus comprises two opposite large faces (3) connected to two opposite small faces (4). The terms "large" and "small" simply define dimensions relative to one another. The large dimension is indicated to oppose the small dimension, and vice versa.

Les extrémités supérieures et inférieures des grandes faces (3) et des petites faces (4) sont prolongées à leurs extrémités supérieures et inférieures respectivement par deux grands rabats (5) et deux petits rabats (6) destinés à former la partie supérieure et le fond de la caisse américaine (10). Les termes « supérieures » et « inférieures » définissent simplement des orientations relatives l'une par rapport à l'autre, celles-ci peuvent être inversées sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention.The upper and lower ends of the large faces (3) and the small faces (4) are extended at their upper and lower ends respectively by two large flaps (5) and two small flaps (6) intended to form the upper part and the bottom from the American fund (10). The terms "upper" and "lower" simply define relative orientations relative to each other, they can be reversed without departing from the scope of the invention.

La caisse américaine (10) est destinée à passer d'une position plane (Cf. Fig. 7) repliée le long de deux arrêtes diagonalement opposées, à une position déployée ouverte parallélépipédique (Cf. Fig. 8) dans laquelle elle est apte à recevoir des bouteilles.The American box (10) is intended to pass from a flat position (Cf. Fig. 7 ) folded along two diagonally opposite edges, in an open parallelepipedic open position (Cf. Fig. 8 ) in which it is able to receive bottles.

Selon l'invention, le croisillon (1) de séparation verticale est formé d'une seule pièce et est directement intégré dans le procédé de fabrication de la caisse américaine (10). Le croisillon (1) est fixé aux quatre faces (3, 4) de ladite caisse (10) et est conformé pour être déployé dans une position de réception des bouteilles de vin dans laquelle il forme six casiers de réception, concomitamment avec le déploiement de la caisse américaine (10) en position ouverte parallélépipédique.According to the invention, the vertical separation spider (1) is formed in one piece and is directly integrated into the manufacturing process of the American box (10). The spider (1) is fixed to the four faces (3, 4) of said box (10) and is shaped to be deployed in a wine bottle receiving position in which it forms six reception bins, concomitantly with the deployment of the American box (10) in parallelepipedic open position.

A cet effet, et en référence à la figure 1, le croisillon (1) est réalisé à partir d'une feuille de carton (7) rectangulaire. La feuille de carton (7) comprend une ligne de pliage transversale (8) définissant des première et deuxième parties (9, 11) symétriques l'une à l'autre par rapport au centre de symétrie de la feuille (7) rectangulaire. Les première et deuxième parties (9, 11) sont destinées à être repliées l'une sur l'autre le long de la ligne de pliage transversale (8).For this purpose, and with reference to figure 1 , the spider (1) is made from a rectangular cardboard sheet (7). The cardboard sheet (7) comprises a transverse fold line (8) defining first and second parts (9, 11) symmetrical to each other with respect to the center of symmetry of the rectangular sheet (7). The first and second parts (9, 11) are intended to be folded over each other along the transverse fold line (8).

Les première et deuxième parties (9, 11) comprennent chacune une première bande (12, 12') définie le long de la ligne de pliage transversale (8). Cette première bande (12, 12') comprend une première extrémité prolongée jusqu'à un premier bord longitudinal (13, 13') par une languette (14) articulée destinée à être collée sur une zone centrale correspondante de l'une des petites faces (4) de la caisse américaine (10). Selon une forme de réalisation préférée, une ligne de prédécoupe permet de former cette languette (14) ainsi que les autres languettes (14) articulées qui seront décrites ci-après, et de leur conférer un caractère repliable et articulé.The first and second portions (9, 11) each comprise a first band (12, 12 ') defined along the transverse fold line (8). This first band (12, 12 ') comprises a first end extended to a first longitudinal edge (13, 13') by an articulated tongue (14) intended to be glued to a corresponding central zone of one of the small faces (4) American fund (10). According to a preferred embodiment, a pre-cut line makes it possible to form this tongue (14) as well as the other articulated tongues (14) which will be described hereinafter, and to give them a folding and articulated character.

Afin d'améliorer la tenue du croisillon (1) de séparation à l'intérieur de la caisse américaine (10), les premières bandes (12, 12') des première et deuxième parties (9, 11) sont destinées à être collées ensemble pour former, lorsque le croisillon (1) est intégré dans ladite caisse américaine (10), une branche (15) inférieure ou supérieure de séparation longitudinale après le déploiement de la caisse américaine (10) en position ouverte parallélépipédique.In order to improve the holding of the separation spider (1) inside the American box (10), the first strips (12, 12 ') of the first and second parts (9, 11) are intended to be glued together to form, when the spider (1) is integrated in said American box (10), a lower branch (15) or upper longitudinal separation after the deployment of the American box (10) in parallelepiped open position.

Les première et deuxième parties (9, 11) de la feuille de carton (7) comprennent ensuite chacune une deuxième bande (16, 16') agencée le long de la première bande (12, 12'). Cette deuxième bande (16, 16') s'étend à partir de la première extrémité de la première bande (12, 12') et jusqu'au deux tiers de la longueur de ladite première bande (12, 12'). La deuxième bande (16, 16') est reliée de manière articulée à la première bande (12, 12'), notamment par une ligne de pliage (17) au niveau de la moitié de sa longueur, telle qu'une ligne de prédécoupe par exemple. L'extrémité de la deuxième bande (16, 16') qui est située du côté d'un deuxième bord longitudinal (18, 18') est prolongée par une languette (14) articulée destinée à être collée sur la zone correspondante de l'une des grandes faces (3) de la caisse américaine (10), et au niveau du tiers de la largeur de ladite grande face (3) pour former des première et deuxième branches (19) inférieures ou supérieures de séparation transversales après le déploiement de la caisse américaine (10) en position ouverte parallélépipédique.The first and second portions (9, 11) of the cardboard sheet (7) then each comprise a second strip (16, 16 ') arranged along the first strip (12, 12'). This second band (16, 16 ') extends from the first end of the first band (12, 12') and up to two-thirds of the length of said first band (12, 12 '). The second strip (16, 16 ') is hingedly connected to the first strip (12, 12'), in particular by a fold line (17) at half its length, such as a precut line for example. The end of the second strip (16, 16 ') which is located on the side of a second longitudinal edge (18, 18') is extended by a tongue (14) articulated to be glued to the corresponding area of the one of the large faces (3) of the American box (10), and at one-third of the width of said large face (3) to form first and second upper or lower transverse separation branches (19) after the deployment of the American box (10) in parallelepipedic open position.

Les premier et deuxième bords longitudinaux (13, 13' et 18, 18') sont définis par opposition l'un à l'autre. Le premier bord longitudinal (13) de la première partie est symétrique au premier bord longitudinal (13') de la deuxième partie, par rapport au centre de symétrique de la feuille de carton (7) rectangulaire. Il en est de même pour les deuxièmes bords longitudinaux (18, 18').The first and second longitudinal edges (13, 13 'and 18, 18') are defined in opposition to each other. The first longitudinal edge (13) of the first portion is symmetrical to the first longitudinal edge (13 ') of the second portion, relative to the center of symmetry of the rectangular cardboard sheet (7). It is the same for the second longitudinal edges (18, 18 ').

Les première et deuxième parties (9, 11) comprennent aussi chacune une troisième bande (20, 20'), de même longueur que la première bande (12, 12'), est agencée le long de la deuxième bande (16, 16'). La troisième bande (20, 20') présente des première et deuxième portions latérales (21, 21' et 22, 22') reliées entre elles par une portion centrale (23, 23').The first and second portions (9, 11) each further comprise a third band (20, 20 '), of the same length as the first band (12, 12'), arranged along the second band (16, 16 '). ). The third strip (20, 20 ') has first and second lateral portions (21, 21' and 22, 22 ') interconnected by a central portion (23, 23').

La première portion latérale (21, 21') est agencée du côté du premier bord longitudinal (13, 13') et est prolongée jusqu'au premier bord longitudinal (13, 13') par une languette (14) articulée destinée à être collée sur la zone centrale correspondante de l'une des petites faces (4) de la caisse américaine (10). La première portion (21, 21') est reliée de manière articulée à la deuxième bande (16, 16') par une ligne de pliage (24, 24') agencée au niveau de la moitié de la longueur de la deuxième bande (16, 16').The first lateral portion (21, 21 ') is arranged on the side of the first longitudinal edge (13, 13') and is extended to the first longitudinal edge (13, 13 ') by a tongue (14) hinged to be glued on the corresponding central area of one of the small faces (4) of the American box (10). The first portion (21, 21 ') is hingedly connected to the second strip (16, 16') by a fold line (24, 24 ') arranged at half the length of the second strip (16, 16'). , 16 ').

Toujours dans un but de conférer davantage de stabilité et de tenue au croisillon (1) lorsque celui-ci est intégré dans la caisse américaine (10), les portions centrales (23, 23') des première et deuxième parties (9, 11) de la feuille de carton (7) sont destinées à être collées ensemble.Still with the aim of giving the brace (1) more stability and holding when it is integrated into the American crate (10), the central portions (23, 23 ') of the first and second parts (9, 11) of the cardboard sheet (7) are intended to be glued together.

La deuxième portion latérale (22, 22') de la troisième bande (20, 20') est, quant à elle, reliée de manière articulée à la portion centrale (23, 23') par une ligne de pliage (25, 25') et est prolongée jusqu'au deuxième bord longitudinal (18, 18') par une languette (14) articulée destinée à être collée sur la zone correspondante de l'une des grandes faces (3) de la caisse américaine (10) et au niveau des deux tiers de la largeur de ladite grande face (3).The second lateral portion (22, 22 ') of the third band (20, 20') is, in turn, hingedly connected to the central portion (23, 23 ') by a fold line (25, 25'). ) and is extended to the second longitudinal edge (18, 18 ') by a tongue (14) articulated to be glued to the corresponding area of one of the large faces (3) of the American box (10) and to the two thirds of the width of said large face (3).

Ainsi, l'ensemble constitué des premières portions latérales (21, 21') et des portions centrales (23, 23') des première et deuxième parties (9, 11) forme la branche (19) supérieure ou inférieure de séparation longitudinale après le déploiement de la caisse américaine (10) en position ouverte parallélépipédique.Thus, the assembly consisting of the first lateral portions (21, 21 ') and central portions (23, 23') of the first and second parts (9, 11) form the upper or lower branch (19) of longitudinal separation after the deployment of the American box (10) in parallelepipedic open position.

Afin d'améliorer davantage la tenue du croisillon (1) à l'intérieur de la caisse américaine (10), la deuxième bande (16, 16') de chacune des première et deuxième parties (9, 11) est destinée à être collée, au niveau de son extrémité agencée du côté du premier bord longitudinal (13, 13'), avec la deuxième portion latérale (22', 22) de la troisième bande (20', 20) de l'autre partie symétrique (9, 11).In order to further improve the holding of the spider (1) inside the American box (10), the second strip (16, 16 ') of each of the first and second parts (9, 11) is intended to be glued at its end arranged on the side of the first longitudinal edge (13, 13 '), with the second lateral portion (22', 22) of the third strip (20 ', 20) of the other symmetrical portion (9, 11).

Les première et deuxième parties (9, 11) comprennent enfin chacune une quatrième bande (26, 26'), agencée le long de la portion centrale (23, 23') de la troisième bande (20, 20'), et de même longueur que ladite portion centrale (23, 23'). L'extrémité de ladite quatrième bande (26, 26'), située du côté du premier bord longitudinal (13, 13'), est reliée de manière articulée par une ligne de pliage (27, 27') à la première portion latérale (21, 21') de la troisième bande (20, 20'). Ladite quatrième bande (26, 26') est prolongée à une extrémité opposée par une languette (14) articulée destinée à être collée sur la zone correspondante de l'une des grandes faces (3) de la caisse américaine (10) et au niveau du tiers de la largeur de ladite grande face (3).The first and second portions (9, 11) each comprise a fourth strip (26, 26 '), arranged along the central portion (23, 23') of the third strip (20, 20 '), and likewise length than said central portion (23, 23 '). The end of said fourth band (26, 26 '), located on the side of the first longitudinal edge (13, 13'), is hingedly connected by a fold line (27, 27 ') to the first lateral portion ( 21, 21 ') of the third band (20, 20'). Said fourth strip (26, 26 ') is extended at an opposite end by a tongue (14) hinged to be glued to the corresponding area of one of the large faces (3) of the American box (10) and at the one third of the width of said large face (3).

Ainsi, les ensembles constitués des quatrième bandes (26, 26') de l'une des première et deuxième parties (9, 11) et de la deuxième portion latérale (22', 22) de la troisième bande (20', 20) de l'autre partie symétrique (11, 9) forment des branches (19) supérieures ou inférieures de séparation transversales après le déploiement de la caisse américaine (10) en position ouverte parallélépipédique.Thus, the sets consisting of the fourth strips (26, 26 ') of one of the first and second parts (9, 11) and the second lateral portion (22', 22) of the third strip (20 ', 20) the other symmetrical part (11, 9) form upper or lower transverse separation branches (19) after the deployment of the American box (10) in the parallelepipedic open position.

Ainsi, de ce qui précède, le croisillon (1) est conformé pour former :

  • une branche inférieure (15) de séparation longitudinale dont les extrémités sont respectivement destinées à être collées sur des zones correspondantes centrales des petites faces (4) de la caisse américaine (10) ;
  • des première et deuxième branches inférieures (19) de séparation transversales, reliées de manière articulée à la branche inférieure (15) de séparation longitudinale, et dont les extrémités sont destinées à être collées sur des zones correspondantes des grandes faces (3) de la caisse américaine (10), respectivement au tiers et aux deux tiers des largeurs desdites grandes faces (3) ;
  • une branche supérieure (15) de séparation longitudinale, reliée de manière articulée aux première et deuxième branches inférieures (19) de séparation transversales, et dont les extrémités sont respectivement destinées à être collées sur des zones correspondantes centrales des petites faces (4) de la caisse américaine (10) ;
  • des première et deuxième branches supérieures (19) de séparation transversales, reliées de manière articulée à la branche supérieure (15) de séparation longitudinale, et dont les extrémités sont destinées à être collées sur des zones correspondantes des grandes faces (3) de la caisse américaine (10), respectivement au tiers et aux deux tiers des largeurs desdites grandes faces (3).
Thus, from the foregoing, the spider (1) is shaped to form:
  • a lower longitudinal branch (15) whose ends are respectively intended to be glued on corresponding central areas of the small faces (4) of the American box (10);
  • first and second lower transverse separation branches (19), articulately connected to the lower longitudinal branch (15), and whose ends are intended to be glued to corresponding areas of the large faces (3) of the body American (10), respectively one-third and two-thirds of the widths of said large faces (3);
  • an upper branch (15) of longitudinal separation, connected in an articulated manner to the first and second lower transverse separation branches (19), and whose ends are respectively intended to be glued on corresponding central regions of the small faces (4) of the American checkout (10);
  • first and second upper transverse separation branches (19) connected in an articulated manner to the upper longitudinal separation branch (15) and whose ends are intended to be glued to corresponding areas of the large faces (3) of the body American (10), respectively one-third and two-thirds of the widths of said large faces (3).

Le croisillon (1) mis en oeuvre dans la caisse américaine (10) selon l'invention est obtenu par toute technique appropriée, notamment par exemple par une technique de découpe par emboutissage, et est intégré directement dans le procédé de fabrication de la caisse américaine (10).The spider (1) used in the American box (10) according to the invention is obtained by any appropriate technique, including for example by a stamping die cutting technique, and is integrated directly into the manufacturing process of the American fund (10).

En effet, pour fabriquer la caisse américaine (10) selon l'invention, il convient de partir d'une bande de carton (28) présentant des lignes de pliage transversales (29) définissant successivement, la première grande face (3), la première petite face (4), la deuxième grande face (3), la deuxième petite face (4), et une languette transversale (30) destinée à être collée sur une extrémité libre de la première grande face (3).Indeed, to manufacture the American box (10) according to the invention, it is necessary to start from a cardboard strip (28) having transverse fold lines (29) defining successively, the first large face (3), the first small face (4), the second large face (3), the second small face (4), and a transverse tongue (30) intended to be bonded to a free end of the first large face (3).

Cette bande de carton (28) présente également des lignes de pliage longitudinales (31) définissant les rabats (5, 6) aux extrémités supérieures et inférieures desdites faces (3, 4) destinés à faire office de paroi de dessus et de paroi de fond de ladite caisse (10).This cardboard strip (28) also has longitudinal fold lines (31) defining the flaps (5, 6) at the upper and lower ends of said faces (3, 4) for acting as a top wall and a bottom wall. of said box (10).

En référence à la figure 2, et à partir de cette bande de carton (28) présentée à plat, il convient d'appliquer de la colle (32) sur les zones correspondantes de la première petite face (4) et de la deuxième grande face (3) aptes à recevoir les languettes (14) articulées de la première partie (9) de la feuille de carton (7).With reference to the figure 2 , and from this strip of cardboard (28) presented flat, it is necessary to apply glue (32) on the corresponding areas of the first small face (4) and the second large face (3) adapted to receiving the hinged tabs (14) of the first portion (9) of the cardboard sheet (7).

En référence à la figure 3, lorsque la colle (32) est appliquée, la première partie (9) de la feuille de carton (7) du croisillon (1) est déposée sur la bande de carton (28) de manière à coller ses languettes (14) articulées sur la première petite face (4) et la deuxième grande face (3) de la caisse américaine (10).With reference to the figure 3 when the glue (32) is applied, the first portion (9) of the cardboard sheet (7) of the spider (1) is deposited on the cardboard strip (28) so as to glue its tongues (14) hinged to the first small face (4) and the second large face (3) of the American box (10).

En référence à la figure 4, de la colle (32) est ensuite appliquée sur les bandes de la première partie (9) de la feuille de carton (7) destinées être collées avec les bandes de la deuxième partie (11) de la feuille de carton (7).With reference to the figure 4 glue (32) is then applied to the strips of the first portion (9) of the cardboard sheet (7) to be bonded with the strips of the second portion (11) of the cardboard sheet (7).

En référence à la figure 5, la deuxième partie (11) de la feuille de carton (7) est alors repliée sur la première partie (9) en pliant ladite feuille de carton (7) selon la ligne de pliage transversale (8) de manière à coller les bandes correspondantes entre elles.With reference to the figure 5 the second portion (11) of the cardboard sheet (7) is then folded over the first portion (9) by folding said cardboard sheet (7) along the transverse fold line (8) so as to adhere the corresponding strips between them.

Ensuite, en référence à la figure 6, de la colle (32) est appliquée sur les zones correspondantes de la première grande face (3) et de la deuxième petite face (4) aptes à recevoir les languettes (14) articulées de la deuxième partie (11) de la feuille de carton (7), ainsi que sur l'extrémité libre de la première grande face (3) destinée à être collée avec la languette transversale (30).Then, with reference to the figure 6 , adhesive (32) is applied to the corresponding areas of the first large face (3) and the second small face (4) adapted to receiving the hinged tabs (14) of the second portion (11) of the cardboard sheet (7), as well as the free end of the first large face (3) to be bonded with the transverse tongue (30).

Enfin, pour former la caisse américaine (10) présentée en position plane repliée conformément à la figure 7, il convient de rabattre successivement la deuxième petite face (4) et la première grande face (3) pour coller les languettes (14) de la deuxième partie (11) de la feuille de carton (7) sur ladite deuxième petite face (4) et sur ladite première grande face (3), et pour coller l'extrémité libre de la première grande face (3) sur la languette transversale (30) afin de former le flanc de la caisse américaine (10).Finally, to form the American box (10) presented in folded flat position in accordance with the figure 7 , the second small face (4) and the first large face (3) must be folded successively in order to glue the tongues (14) of the second part (11) of the cardboard sheet (7) to said second small face (4). ) and on said first large face (3), and for adhering the free end of the first large face (3) on the transverse tongue (30) to form the side of the American box (10).

D'une manière avantageuse et afin de faciliter le collage de la languette (14) de la première bande (12') de la deuxième partie (11), l'extrémité de la première bande (12) de la première partie (9) est prolongée jusqu'au deuxième bord longitudinal (18) par une languette de contre-appui (33). Cette languette de contre-appui (33) permet de réaliser un facilite le collage de la languette (14) de la bande (12') avec la petite face (4) de la caisse (10).Advantageously and in order to facilitate the gluing of the tongue (14) of the first band (12 ') of the second part (11), the end of the first band (12) of the first part (9) is extended to the second longitudinal edge (18) by a counter-support tongue (33). This counter-support tongue (33) makes it possible to facilitate the gluing of the tongue (14) of the strip (12 ') with the small face (4) of the box (10).

Cette configuration spécifique du croisillon (1) avec des branches de séparation transversales (19) et longitudinales (15) articulées et respectivement fixées aux faces (3, 4) de la caisse américaine (10) par l'intermédiaire de languettes (14) aussi articulées, permet auxdites branches de séparation (15, 19) de passer d'une position plane lorsque la caisse américaine (10) est dans une position plane repliée le long de deux arrêtes diagonalement opposées, à une position déployée de réception des bouteilles, concomitamment avec le déploiement de ladite caisse américaine (10) dans une position ouverte parallélépipédique.This specific configuration of the spider (1) with transverse separation branches (19) and longitudinal (15) articulated and respectively fixed to the faces (3, 4) of the American box (10) via tabs (14) also articulated, allows said separation legs (15, 19) to move from a flat position when the American box (10) is in a flat position folded along two diagonally opposite edges, to a deployed position of receiving the bottles, concomitantly with the deployment of said American box (10) in an open parallelepipedic position.

Dans cet exemple de réalisation particulier, en position déployée de réception, lesdites branches de séparation transversales (19) et longitudinales (15) forment six casiers aptes à recevoir chacun une bouteille.In this particular embodiment, in the extended receiving position, said transverse (19) and longitudinal (15) separation branches form six bins each capable of receiving a bottle.

La caisse américaine (10) est avantageuse en ce qu'elle intègre directement le croisillon (1) de séparation lors de sa fabrication, selon un procédé simple. Le croisillon (1) est fixé fermement aux quatre faces (3, 4) de la caisse (10), et ne présente pas de sens préféré de déploiement. La caisse (10) peut donc être intégrée dans un procédé d'encaissage de bouteilles sans se soucier du sens s'approvisionnement desdites caisses (10) américaines. Les machines permettant de mettre en oeuvre le procédé selon l'invention sont bien connues de l'état de la technique et ne seront pas décrites. Ces machines ne font pas partie de l'invention. L'Homme du Métier, concepteur et fabricant de boîtes en carton ou de caisse américaine (10) saura, bien entendu, à partir des fonctionnalités des machines existantes, mettre en oeuvre le procédé selon l'invention. Les machines utilisées permettent notamment de manipuler des bandes de carton, de les convoyer, de les plier et d'appliquer de la colle (32).The American box (10) is advantageous in that it directly integrates the separating spider (1) during its manufacture, according to a simple method. The spider (1) is firmly attached to the four faces (3, 4) of the body (10), and has no preferred direction of deployment. The box (10) can be integrated in a bottling process bottles without worrying about the supply direction of said boxes (10) American. The machines for implementing the method according to the invention are well known in the state of the art and will not be described. These machines are not part of the invention. The skilled person, designer and manufacturer of cardboard boxes or American box (10) will, of course, from the functionality of existing machines, implement the method according to the invention. The machines used in particular make it possible to handle cardboard strips, to convey them, to bend them and to apply glue (32).
