Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine du conditionnement de produits tels que des lingettes humides, des pansements, des granulés ou des poudres.The present invention relates to the field of packaging products such as wet wipes, dressings, granules or powders.

Le principe général de tels conditionnements est connu par exemple par le brevet international PCT W09929589A2 décrivant un étui comprenant des moyens d'étanchéité et un dispositif d'ouverture disposé sur une face de l'étui. Le dispositif d'ouverture comprend un clapet d'ouverture prolongé par une bordure périphérique adhésive et entouré au moins en partie par une ligne d'affaiblissement. Cette ligne d'affaiblissement est une ligne courbe non fermée s'étendant, à chacune de ses extrémités, au voisinage du bord de l'étui sans venir en contact avec ledit bord. Une fenêtre permettant le retrait des lingettes est formée sur la face principale de l'étui, et est obturée de manière réversible par le clapet d'ouverture.The general principle of such packages is known for example by the international patent PCT W09929589A2 describing a case comprising sealing means and an opening device disposed on one side of the case. The opening device comprises an opening valve extended by an adhesive peripheral edge and surrounded at least in part by a line of weakness. This weakening line is an unclosed curved line extending, at each of its ends, in the vicinity of the edge of the case without coming into contact with said edge. A window for removing the wipes is formed on the main face of the case, and is reversibly closed by the opening valve.

Le brevet international WO0149571A2 présente un sachet pour le conditionnement de lingettes, et notamment un étui destiné à contenir et distribuer des produits, par exemple des lingettes humides se présentant sensiblement sous forme de feuille pliée, disposés en pile à l'intérieur dudit étui. Cet étui présente de la même façon une ouverture sur laquelle est appliqué un volet assurant l'étanchéité avant la première ouverture.The international patent WO0149571A2 presents a bag for packaging wipes, and in particular a case for containing and dispensing products, for example wet wipes having substantially in the form of folded sheet, arranged in a stack inside said case. This case has the same way an opening on which is applied a flap ensuring tightness before the first opening.

Le problème qui se pose avec ses réalisations est que l'étanchéité de la fenêtre est assurée par le matériau prédécoupé qui constitue cette fenêtre et par l'adhésif qui colmate la ligne d'affaiblissement de cette fenêtre. En effet, le liquide ou les arômes peuvent s'évaporer par cette ligne d'affaiblissement et viennent polluer et altérer l'adhésif qui ne peut plus assurer totalement l'étanchéité, voire peut dénaturer le produit conditionné à l'intérieur.The problem that arises with its achievements is that the tightness of the window is provided by the pre-cut material that constitutes this window and by the adhesive that clogs the line of weakness of this window. Indeed, the liquid or the aromas can evaporate by this weakening line and pollute and alter the adhesive that can no longer fully seal, or may denature the product packaged inside.

À cet effet, l'invention vient remédier à ces problèmes et concerne selon son acception la plus générale un étui pour le conditionnement et la distribution de produits, notamment de granulés, de lingettes ou de poudres, formé par une enveloppe présentant sur sa face principale une fenêtre destinée à la présentation et au retrait des lingettes, et par un volet apte à recouvrir ladite fenêtre en position de fermeture, caractérisé en ce que la surface extérieure de la bordure périphérique de la fenêtre, ainsi que l'ouverture formée par la fenêtre sont revêtues par un opercule formé par une zone principale prolongée par une languette, la zone centrale étant solidarisée avec la bordure périphérique de la fenêtre, la languette n'étant pas solidarisée avec la surface extérieure de ladite enveloppe, et en ce que le volet est formé par une étiquette adhésive collée sur la face principale de l'enveloppe, y compris sur ledit opercule. Ainsi, l'étanchéité du système d'ouverture de l'étui est complètement assurée avant toute première ouverture et l'adhésif n'est jamais altéré ou pollué.To this end, the invention overcomes these problems and concerns in its most general sense a case for the packaging and dispensing of products, including granules, wipes or powders, formed by a casing having on its main face a window for the presentation and removal of the wipes, and a flap adapted to cover said window in the closed position, characterized in that the outer surface of the peripheral edge of the window, and the opening formed by the window are covered by a cover formed by a main zone extended by a tongue, the central zone being secured to the peripheral edge of the window, the tongue not being secured to the outer surface of said envelope, and in that the flap is formed by an adhesive label stuck on the main face of the envelope, including on said lid. Thus, the sealing of the opening system of the case is completely ensured before any first opening and the adhesive is never altered or polluted.

Selon un mode de mise en oeuvre préféré, l'étui selon la revendication principale est caractérisé en ce que l'opercule est réalisé à partir d'une matière compatible avec la matière du sachet où figure la fenêtre d'ouverture pour être soudé ou collé.According to a preferred embodiment, the case according to the main claim is characterized in that the lid is made from a material compatible with the material of the bag where the opening window appears to be welded or glued .

De préférence, la bordure périphérique présente une largeur comprise entre un et dix millimètres.Preferably, the peripheral edge has a width of between one and ten millimeters.

Avantageusement, la zone principale de l'opercule peut être solidarisée avec la face avant de l'enveloppe par soudure, mais elle pourrait également l'être par collage (dans ce cas, la zone de collage s'étendrait sur le bord de l'opercule sans jamais être en contact d'au moins 5 mm avec le contour de la fenêtre).Advantageously, the main zone of the lid can be secured to the front face of the envelope by welding, but it could also be bonded (in this case, the bonding zone would extend over the edge of the envelope. the operculum without ever being in contact of at least 5 mm with the outline of the window).

L'adhésif qui recouvre l'opercule est fixé à la surface du sachet par collage, soudure ou par une charnière.The adhesive that covers the lid is attached to the surface of the bag by gluing, welding or hinge.

Selon une variante préférée, l'opercule est pelable.According to a preferred variant, the lid is peelable.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui suit, se référant de manière non limitative à un exemple de réalisation et aux dessins annexés où :

  • la figure 1 représente la vue de la face principale avant la pose de l'opercule,
  • la figure 2 représente la vue de la face principale après la pose de l'opercule,
  • la figure 3 représente la vue de la face principale après la pose de l'étiquette adhésive.
The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, referring in a nonlimiting manner to an example embodiment and to the appended drawings in which:
  • the figure 1 represents the view of the main face before laying the lid,
  • the figure 2 represents the view of the main face after laying the lid,
  • the figure 3 represents the view of the main face after the application of the adhesive label.

La figure 1 représente une vue de la face principale (1) de l'étui. L'étui est réalisé de façon connue par pliage d'une feuille ou par assemblage de plusieurs feuilles. L'invention n'est pas spécifique à un mode de réalisation ou à une configuration spécifique d'étui.The figure 1 represents a view of the main face (1) of the case. The case is made in known manner by folding a sheet or by assembling several sheets. The invention is not specific to an embodiment or to a specific case configuration.

La face principale (1) présente une fenêtre (2) dont la forme et les dimensions sont adaptées pour permettre l'accès aux lingettes et leur retrait. L'application au conditionnement de lingettes ne constitue qu'un exemple de mise en oeuvre, et ce type d'étui peut également servir à conditionner d'autres produits tels que des pansements, granulés ou poudres.The main face (1) has a window (2) whose shape and dimensions are adapted to allow access to the wipes and their removal. The application to the packaging of wipes is only one example of implementation, and this type of case can also be used to package other products such as dressings, granules or powders.

La figure 2 représente la face avant en cours de fabrication de l'étui. Un opercule (3) est appliqué sur la face avant (1) pour recouvrir la fenêtre (2) et pour déborder de quelques millimètres, par exemple 5 millimètres autour de la fenêtre. L'opercule présente une zone principale (4) recouvrant la fenêtre (2) ainsi qu'une bordure périphérique (5). Cette zone principale (4) est prolongée par une languette (6) s'étendant radialement au bord de la zone centrale.The figure 2 represents the front face during manufacture of the case. A cover (3) is applied to the front face (1) to cover the window (2) and to protrude a few millimeters, for example 5 millimeters around the window. The operculum has a main zone (4) covering the window (2) and a peripheral edge (5). This main zone (4) is extended by a tongue (6) extending radially at the edge of the central zone.

La zone principale (4) de l'opercule est soudée sur la surface de la face avant, et est donc solidarisée avec la face avant au niveau de la bordure périphérique (5). La languette, par contre, n'est pas solidaire de la face principale (1).The main zone (4) of the lid is welded to the surface of the front face, and is thus secured to the front face at the peripheral edge (5). The tongue, on the other hand, is not secured to the main face (1).

La face avant (1) et l'opercule sont réalisés dans matériau compatible pour scellage ou collage réversible, par exemple un film complexe présentant une surface en PET et un opercule constitué d'un PET pelable.The front face (1) and the cover are made of compatible material for sealing or reversible bonding, for example a complex film having a PET surface and a seal consisting of a peelable PET.

La figure 3 représente l'étui après la pose du volet de fermeture (7).The figure 3 represents the case after the installation of the shutter (7).

Ce volet (7) est réalisé en un film adhésif. Il est collé sur la face principale (1) et recouvre la fenêtre obturée par l'opercule (3), et notamment la languette (6).This flap (7) is made of an adhesive film. It is glued on the main face (1) and covers the window closed by the cover (3), and in particular the tongue (6).

Cette languette (6) est solidaire de la surface adhésive du volet (7). Lorsque l'utilisateur procède à une première ouverture de l'étui scellé, le volet (7) entraîne la languette (6) qui forme une sorte de « bras de levier » facilitant le descellement de l'opercule (3). L'opercule (3) reste collé au volet (7), et l'ouverture du volet (7) libère de ce fait la fenêtre (2).This tongue (6) is integral with the adhesive surface of the flap (7). When the user proceeds to a first opening of the sealed case, the flap (7) causes the tongue (6) which forms a kind of "lever arm" facilitating the loosening of the lid (3). The cover (3) remains glued to the flap (7), and the opening of the flap (7) releases the window (2).

Après l'utilisation, le volet (7) est à nouveau rabattu sur la face principale, et assure la fermeture relativement étanche de la fenêtre (2).After use, the flap (7) is folded back on the main face, and ensures the relatively tight closure of the window (2).

L'invention est décrite dans ce qui précède de manière non limitative. Elle peut être mise en oeuvre selon diverses variantes.The invention is described in the foregoing in a nonlimiting manner. It can be implemented according to various variants.

Ce système est valable pour différents types de sachets : sachets avec un ou plusieurs soufflets, soudés 3 et 4 côtés que les soudures soient longitudinales et/ou latérales.This system is valid for different types of sachets: sachets with one or more bellows, welded 3 and 4 sides that the welds are longitudinal and / or lateral.

Ce système est aussi valable pour différents types d'étiquettes et quels que soient leur taille ou leur mode de fixation sur le sachet (collage, soudure, charnière ...). La contrainte de la taille est qu'elle déborde d'au moins 5mm après l'opercule.This system is also valid for different types of labels and whatever their size or their method of attachment to the bag (gluing, welding, hinge ...). The constraint of the size is that it overflows of at least 5mm after the operculum.

Concernant la languette qui prolonge l'opercule pour faire bras de levier, elle peut-être encollée d'une colle repositionnable complètement ou en partie afin de pouvoir fixer l'opercule pendant sa dépose en fabrication, c'est-à-dire avant qu'elle soit soudée.Regarding the tab which extends the lid to make lever arm, it may be glued with a glue repositionable completely or in part in order to fix the cap during its removal in manufacture, that is to say before it is welded.

Par ailleurs, l'opercule peut dépasser la fenêtre de 2 à 10 millimètres suivant le produit conditionné à l'intérieur. Cette distance se règle car on la détermine en fonction de la volatilité du produit pour éviter la pollution de l'adhésif (plus le produit est volatile plus on accroît la distance). Pour les poudres par exemple, la distance entre l'ouverture et l'adhésif doit être assez grande.In addition, the lid may exceed the window by 2 to 10 millimeters depending on the product packaged inside. This distance is adjusted because it is determined according to the volatility of the product to avoid the pollution of the adhesive (the more the product is volatile the more the distance is increased). For powders for example, the distance between the opening and the adhesive must be large enough.

Concernant les matériaux, ils doivent être scellables de manière pelable entre eux entre l'opercule et le sachet. On peut par exemple sceller un opercule en PET pelable sur un film PET. On peut également appliquer un opercule pelable en PE ou OPP sur un film en OPP.Regarding the materials, they must be peelable sealable between them between the seal and the bag. For example, a peelable PET seal may be sealed to a PET film. It is also possible to apply a peelable PE or OPP seal on an OPP film.
