Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne une feuille d'emballage stratifiée du type comprenant un film support associé à un film soudable entre lesquels est interposée, au moins en des zones repérées, une couche d'un adhésif permanent, liée au film support et au film soudable suivant deux interfaces de liaison, formées de part et d'autre de la partie intermédiaire de la couche d'adhésif permanent.The present invention relates to a laminated packaging sheet of type comprising a support film associated with a weldable film between which is interposed, at least in marked areas, a layer of an adhesive permanent, linked to the support film and to the weldable film according to two interfaces linkages, formed on either side of the intermediate portion of the layer of permanent adhesive.
Elle concerne en outre un emballage comportant une telle feuille.It also relates to a package comprising such a sheet.
Les emballages comportant une feuille d'emballage permettant une ouverture facile et une refermeture sont actuellement utilisés par exemple pour conditionner des produits alimentaires. La structure de telles feuilles est décrite notamment dans la demande de brevet français FR-A-95-14117.Packagings comprising a packing sheet allowing a easy opening and resealing are currently used for example for packaging food products. The structure of such leaves is described in particular in the French patent application FR-A-95-14117.
Dans ce document, la feuille stratifiée utilisée pour permettre l'ouverture et la refermeture de l'emballage comporte deux films de polymère entre lesquels une couche d'un adhésif permanent est interposée.In this document, the laminated sheet used to allow the opening and the reclosing of the package comprises two polymer films between which a layer of a permanent adhesive is interposed.
L'un des films, dit «film soudant» est destiné à être orienté vers l'intérieur de l'emballage. Il est adapté pour être soudé sur le rebord périphérique d'une barquette. L'autre film, dit «film support», est destiné à former la face externe de l'emballage.One of the films, called "film solder" is intended to be directed towards inside the packaging. It is adapted to be welded on the peripheral edge a tray. The other film, called "support film", is intended to form the outer side of the package.
Dans ce document, lors de l'ouverture de la barquette, le film soudant se déchire de part et d'autre de la région soudée. Il forme ainsi sur le pourtour de la barquette un cordon soudé résiduel du film soudant. La feuille d'emballage a une structure telle que le cordon soudé du film soudant se sépare de la couche d'adhésif permanent qui reste totalement solidaire du film support. Après dégagement de la feuille, le cordon soudé est dépourvu d'adhésif permanent, lequel est porté uniquement sur le film support.In this document, when opening the tray, the film solder tears on both sides of the welded region. It thus forms on the periphery of the tray a residual welded bead of the welding film. Leaf packaging has a structure such that the welded bead of the welding film is separates from the permanent adhesive layer which remains totally attached to the support film. After clearing the sheet, the welded bead is devoid of of permanent adhesive, which is only worn on the support film.
Lors de la remise en place de la feuille sur la barquette, l'adhésif permanent est réappliqué sur le cordon soudé sur la barquette, afin de reconstituer une interface de liaison par collage entre le cordon soudé et l'adhésif permanent.When replacing the sheet on the tray, the adhesive permanent is reapplied on the welded bead on the tray, in order to restore a bonding connection interface between the welded bead and the permanent adhesive.
Malgré les propriétés de collage permanent de l'adhésif, le recollage de la feuille sur la barquette est parfois difficile. Ainsi, il est souvent nécessaire d'appliquer une forte pression pour assurer une nouvelle liaison entre le cordon soudé résiduel porté par la barquette et l'adhésif permanent. Despite the permanent bonding properties of the adhesive, the bonding of the leaf on the tray is sometimes difficult. So, it is often necessary to apply strong pressure to ensure a new link between the residual welded bead carried by the tray and the permanent adhesive.
EP-0.554.152 décrit une feuille d'emballage selon le préambule de la revendication 1, dans laquelle l'une des interfaces de liaison de la couche d'adhésif permanent a une résistance inférieure à la force d'adhérence de la feuille sur le rebord périphérique d'un récipient.EP-0.554.152 discloses a packaging sheet according to the preamble of claim 1, wherein one of the link interfaces of the permanent adhesive layer has a resistance lower than the force adhesion of the sheet to the peripheral rim of a container.
L'invention a pour but de proposer une feuille d'emballage permettant, après une ouverture initiale, une remise en place aisée et fiable de celle-ci pour obturer l'emballage.The purpose of the invention is to propose a packaging sheet after an initial opening, an easy and reliable refitting of it to seal the package.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet une feuille d'emballage stratifiée selon la revendication 1.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a laminated packaging sheet according to claim 1.
Suivant des modes particuliers de réalisation, la feuille d'emballage comporte les caractéristiques de l'une ou plusieurs des revendications dépendantes.According to particular embodiments, the packaging sheet has the features of one or more of the dependent claims.
L'invention a en outre pour objet un emballage comportant une paroi externe délimitant un logement pourvu d'un passage d'accès audit loge.ment, caractérisé en ce que ledit passage est obturé par une feuille stratifiée selon l'une quelconque des revendications précédentes, laquelle feuille est soudée sur ladite paroi externe à la périphérie dudit passage, suivant son film soudable dans une zone repérée de la feuille qui est pourvue d'adhésif permanent. The invention furthermore relates to a package comprising a wall external delimiting a housing provided with a passage of access to said lodge. characterized in that said passage is closed by a laminated sheet according to any one of the preceding claims, which sheet is soldered on said outer wall at the periphery of said passage, according to its weldable film in a marked area of the sheet which is provided with adhesive permanent.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en se référant aux dessins, sur lesquels :
- La figure 1 est une vue partielle en perspective et en coupe d'une barquette d'emballage dont le passage d'accès est obturé par une feuille stratifiée selon l'invention, et
- La figure 2 est une vue analogue à celle de la figure 1, après ouverture de l'emballage.
- FIG. 1 is a partial perspective sectional view of a packaging tray whose access passage is closed by a laminated sheet according to the invention, and
- Figure 2 is a view similar to that of Figure 1, after opening the package.
L'emballage 10 représenté sur la figure 1 est constitué d'une barquette
rectangulaire 12 et d'un opercule souple 14 d'obturation d'un passage
d'accès 15 à l'intérieur de la barquette.The
La barquette 12 est constituée d'une couche support 16 en matière
appropriée, par exemple du chlorure de polyvinyl, recouverte sur sa surface
intérieure d'un film soudable 18, par exemple en polyéthylène.The
La barquette définit un réceptacle 20 bordé sur tout son pourtour d'un
rebord 22 délimitant une surface plane de soudage de l'opercule souple 14
suivant une soudure rectiligne 23.The tray defines a
L'opercule 14 est constitué essentiellement d'un film support 24 et
d'un film soudable 26 avec une couche d'adhésif permanent 28 interposée
en à-plat entre eux sur toute la surface.The
Un film transparent 30 portant des impressions 32 est solidarisé sur le
film support 24 par l'intermédiaire d'une couche de colle 34 appliquée sur sa
face imprimée.A
La couche d'adhésif permanente 28, liée au film support 24, définit
une première interface de liaison 36. La couche 28 est en outre liée au film
soudant 26 par une seconde interface de liaison notée 38. Les interfaces de
liaison 36, 38 sont prévues de part et d'autre de l'épaisseur de la couche
d'adhésif permanent.The permanent
La partie intermédiaire de la couche d'adhésif permanent définie entre
les interfaces de liaison, encore appelée coeur de la couche d'adhésif, ne se
trouve pas modifiée par le collage, contrairement aux couches limites constituant
les interfaces de liaison. La partie intermédiaire de la couche 28 est
donc formée uniquement d'adhésif permanent n'ayant pas subi de transformation
physico-chimique.The intermediate part of the permanent adhesive layer defined between
bonding interfaces, still called the core of the adhesive layer, do not
is not modified by gluing, unlike the boundary layers
the link interfaces. The intermediate part of
Selon l'invention, la résistance à la traction perpendiculairement au
plan de joint de chacune des deux interfaces de liaison 36, 38 est supérieure
à la résistance à la traction du coeur de la couche d'adhésif permanent 28.According to the invention, the tensile strength perpendicular to the
joint plane of each of the two connecting
En d'autres termes, pour une surface donnée de la feuille, la force
d'adhérence de la couche d'adhésif permanent 28, d'une part au film support
24 et d'autre part au film soudant 26, suivant les interfaces de liaison 36
et 38, est supérieure à la force de cohésion de la couche d'adhésif permanent
28 au coeur de celle-ci.In other words, for a given surface of the sheet, the force
adhesion of the permanent
Ces propriétés de résistance relative entre d'une part les interfaces
de liaison 36, 38 et d'autre part le coeur de la couche d'adhésif permanent
sont obtenues par des traitements de surface effectués sur les faces en regard
du film support 24 et du film soudant 26 sur lesquelles est appliquée la
couche adhésive 28.These properties of relative resistance between the
Ces traitements de surface comportent par exemple un traitement mécanique, l'application d'une couche d'enduit primaire d'adhésion, ou encore un traitement à effet Corona. Différents types de traitement seront décrits plus en détail dans la suite de la description.These surface treatments include, for example, a treatment mechanics, the application of a layer of primary adhesive coating, or Corona treatment. Different types of treatment will be described in more detail in the following description.
Le matériau formant le film soudant 26 est choisi de sorte qu'il présente
une résistance au déchirement inférieure à la résistance à la traction
du coeur de la couche d'adhésif permanent 28.The material forming the
La soudure longitudinale 23 est obtenue par thermosoudage. Lors du
soudage, les films soudants 18 et 26 fondent ensemble, permettant d'obtenir
après refroidissement une soudure très fiable. En particulier, la résistance à
la traction de la soudure 23 est supérieure à la résistance au déchirement du
film soudable 26, à la résistance à la traction des interfaces 36 et 38, ainsi
qu'à la résistance à la traction du coeur de la couche d'adhésif 28.The
A titre d'exemple, les différentes couches et films de l'opercule 14 ont
les caractéristiques suivantes.For example, the various layers and films of the
Le film support 24 est un film de polyéthylène de 36 microns
d'épaisseur. Le film soudant 26 est un film de polyéthylène réalisé à partir de
résine «Escorène» d'une épaisseur de 40 microns adapté pour être lié par
thermosoudage au film 18 pour former la soudure longitudinale 23.The
La couche d'adhésif permanent 28 est réalisée par enduction à l'aide
d'une masse adhésive initialement en solution, notamment en dispersion
aqueuse.The permanent
La couche d'adhésif permanent peut encore être appliquée à chaud, notamment par extrusion.The permanent adhesive layer can still be applied hot, especially by extrusion.
Un adhésif permanent désigné couramment sous le nom de « hot melt » convient parfaitement à cette application. Il est possible notamment d'utiliser du PLASTOFLEX 8718 commercialisé par la société PARAMELT en Hollande.A permanent adhesive commonly referred to as "hot melt "is ideal for this application. It is possible in particular to use PLASTOFLEX 8718 marketed by PARAMELT in Holland.
L'épaisseur de la couche adhésive 28 est avantageusement comprise
entre 10 et 30 microns et notamment égale à environ 20 microns.The thickness of the
Le film transparent 30 est par exemple un film de polyéthylène enduit
d'une épaisseur de 12 microns. Ce film peut présenter des caractéristiques
fonctionnelles particulières, notamment des caractéristiques d'étanchéité vis-à-vis
de certains gaz. A cet effet, il est traité suivant des techniques connues
adaptées.The
La colle utilisée pour assurer la liaison entre le film 30 et le film support
24 est de tout type adapté en fonction de la nature des films à relier.The adhesive used to ensure the connection between the
Selon un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention, un enduit primaire
d'adhésion est appliqué sur les deux faces en regard des films 24 et
26 avant mise en place de la couche d'adhésif permanent 28. Cet enduit
primaire d'adhésion est par exemple à base de polyuréthanne. L'enduit
commercialisé en France par la société BASF sous le nom commercial SOP
815 convient pour cette application.According to a first embodiment of the invention, a primary coating
adhesion is applied on both sides with regard to
Suivant une variante de réalisation, l'enduit primaire d'adhésion est
remplacé aux interfaces 36 et 38 par un matriçage ou un gauffrage réalisé
par calandrage des faces en regard des films 24 et 26.According to an alternative embodiment, the primary coating of adhesion is
replaced at
Suivant encore un autre mode de réalisation, les faces en regard des
films 24 et 26 sont soumises initialement à un traitement visant à augmenter
sa tension de surface. Ce traitement est avantageusement un traitement à
effet Corona. Celui-ci est avantageusement effectué sur le film support 24
de façon à obtenir une tension de surface comprise entre 45 et 48 dynes/cm.
Le traitement Corona est avantageusement réalisé sur la face du film soudant
26 afin d'obtenir une tension de surface comprise entre 44 et 46 dynes/cm.According to yet another embodiment, the faces facing the
A titre d'exemple, avec un film selon l'invention, pour une largeur de bande de 15 mm, les forces perpendiculaires au plan de joint nécessaires pour la rupture de chacun des éléments de la feuille sont les suivantes.By way of example, with a film according to the invention, for a width of 15 mm band, forces perpendicular to the joint plane required for breaking each of the elements of the sheet are as follows.
La force devant être appliquée pour obtenir la séparation de l'adhésif
permanent et de l'un ou l'autre des films 24 et 26 suivant respectivement les
interfaces 36 et 38 est de 12 N, alors que la force devant être appliquée
pour obtenir la rupture de l'adhésif au coeur de la couche 28 n'est que de
7 N à 9 N.The force to be applied to obtain the separation of the adhesive
and one or the other of
Pour la même bande, la force à appliquer pour obtenir le déchirement
initial du film soudable 26 est d'environ 20 à 25 N. La force pour poursuivre
le déchirement du film et provoquer la rupture simultanée de l'adhésif au
coeur de la couche 28 est de 12 à 15 N. De plus, la force pour rompre la
soudure 23 est d'environ 40 N.For the same band, the force to apply to get the tear
initial of the
Comme représenté sur la figure 2, lors d'une traction exercée sur
l'opercule 14 pour l'ouverture de l'emballage par soulèvement de l'opercule,
le film soudant 26 se rompt de part et d'autre de la zone soudée.As shown in FIG. 2, during a traction exerted on
the
Ainsi, l'opercule 14 est séparé de la barquette 12, suivant au moins
une partie de la longueur du rebord 22. Seule une bande, issue du film soudant
26, reste soudée sur le rebord 22. Elle forme un cordon soudé noté 40.Thus, the
Puisque la résistance à la traction des interfaces 36 et 38 est supérieure
à la résistance à la traction du coeur de la couche d'adhésif permanent
28, celle-ci se rompt dans sa partie intermédiaire et notamment sensiblement
dans sa partie médiane. Ainsi, une partie, notée 42, de la couche
d'adhésif permanent subsiste sur le cordon soudé 40, alors que la partie
complémentaire, notée 44, subsiste sur le film support 24. Les deux parties
complémentaires 42, 44 ont chacune une épaisseur sensiblement égale à la
moitié de l'épaisseur totale de la couche 28. Leur épaisseur est donc comprise
entre 5 et 15 microns suivant l'épaisseur de la couche d'adhésif. Since the tensile strength of the
Dans ces conditions, on comprend que la rupture de la couche
d'adhésif permanent est obtenue en dehors des couches limites modifiées
de celle-ci qui forment les interfaces de liaison. La rupture a donc lieu au
coeur de la couche d'adhésif permanent où la structure et la composition de
celui-ci ne sont pas altérées par le contact avec les films 24 et 26.Under these conditions, it is understood that the breaking of the layer
of permanent adhesive is obtained outside the modified boundary layers
of which form the link interfaces. The rupture therefore takes place at
core of the permanent adhesive layer where the structure and composition of
this one is not altered by the contact with the
Ainsi, lors de la remise en place de l'opercule 14, les deux parties de
la couche d'adhésif 28 sont remises en contact l'une avec l'autre dans une
région non modifiée de la couche puisque, à l'écart des interfaces de liaison
36 et 38. Ainsi, la liaison entre l'opercule 14 et la barquette 12 est rétablie
directement au coeur de la couche d'adhésif, ce qui améliore les performances

Il est à noter que, même en cas de dépôt de résidus du produit emballé ou de traces grasses sur l'une des parties apparentes de la couche adhésive rompue, la refermeture est possible puisque la partie opposée garde son pouvoir adhésif. Après refermeture le dépôt est encapsulé au coeur de la couche adhésive.It should be noted that, even in case of deposit of residues of the packaged product or greasy traces on one of the exposed parts of the diaper adhesive broken, the reclosing is possible since the opposite part keep its adhesive power. After reclosing the deposit is encapsulated at heart of the adhesive layer.
En variante non représentée, la feuille stratifiée comporte une couche d'adhésif permanent uniquement dans les régions destinées à être soudées sur le rebord de la barquette. Dans ce cas, le film support et le film soudable sont liés l'un à l'autre par une couche de colle de tout type adapté.In a variant not shown, the laminated sheet comprises a layer of permanent adhesive only in regions intended to be welded on the edge of the tray. In this case, the support film and the weldable film are bonded to one another by a layer of glue of any suitable type.
