Description

L'invention a trait à un document imprimé et façonné, dit « insert » et à un procédé de fabrication de tels documents.The invention relates to a printed and shaped document, said "insert" and a method of manufacturing such documents.

Dans le domaine de l'imprimerie, tout particulièrement dédié à la publicité, il est connu de réaliser des documents dénommés « inserts » ou « leaflets » destinés à être soit encartés dans des magazines, soit déposés à l'intérieur de conditionnements de produits alimentaires, notamment pour des opérations promotionnelles. De tels inserts peuvent également être utilisés dans le domaine industriel comme supports d'informations techniques destinés à être joints à un appareil ou à un produit.In the field of printing, especially dedicated to advertising, it is known to produce documents called "inserts" or "leaflets" intended to be inserts in magazines or deposited inside food packaging , especially for promotional operations. Such inserts can also be used in the industrial field as technical information carriers intended to be joined to an apparatus or a product.

Les inserts connus peuvent être réalisés avec du papier à faible grammage afin d'être compatibles avec des procédés de production en continu faisant intervenir, notamment, des machines d'imprimerie rotatives. Ces inserts à faible grammage peuvent avoir une ou plusieurs pages. Dans le cas où ils se composent d'un unique feuillet, ils présentent une rigidité parfois insuffisante immédiatement perceptible par le lecteur d'un magazine ou le destinataire d'une promotion. Ils sont, en outre, relativement délicats à manipuler- automatiquement en vue de leur insertion dans un magazine ou dans un conditionnement de produits alimentaires.The known inserts can be made with low weight paper to be compatible with continuous production processes involving, inter alia, rotary printing machines. These low weight inserts can have one or more pages. In the case where they consist of a single sheet, they have a sometimes insufficient rigidity immediately perceptible by the reader of a magazine or the recipient of a promotion. In addition, they are relatively difficult to manipulate automatically for insertion in a magazine or food packaging.

US-A-5 876 784 montre un feuillet selon le préambule de la revendication 1. US-A-5,876,784 shows a leaflet according to the preamble of claim 1.

Des inserts réalisés à base de papier de grammage plus élevé ont pu être envisagés mais doivent être fabriqués avec des machines dites « feuille à feuille », ce qui implique des délais de réalisation plus longs, alors que le prix de base du papier utilisé est plus élevé.Inserts made from paper of higher grammage could be envisaged but must be made with machines called "sheet", which implies longer lead times, while the basic price of paper used is more Student.

C'est à ces inconvénients qu'entend plus particulièrement remédier l'invention en proposant un nouvel insert présentant une rigidité équivalente aux inserts réalisés dans des papiers à fort grammage, par exemple supérieur à 200 g/m2, et pouvant être réalisé sur une chaîne d'impression et de façonnage en continu, alors qu'il est efficacement protégé contre l'humidité et/ou les agressions chimiques.It is these drawbacks that the invention intends to remedy more particularly by proposing a new insert having a stiffness equivalent to the inserts made in papers with a heavy weight, for example greater than 200 g / m 2 , and which can be produced on a chain of continuous printing and shaping, while it is effectively protected against moisture and / or chemical aggression.

Dans cet esprit, l'invention concerne un document imprimé et façonné, dit « insert » ou « leaflet », comprenant un unique feuillet, ce feuillet est imprimé en continu uniquement sur une première face qui est revêtue d'un film protecteur, alors que sa seconde face, opposée à la première, est enduite au moins partiellement d'un adhésif permanent, le feuillet étant plié le long d'une ligne de pliage, de telle sorte que sa seconde face est rabattue sur elle-même et que sa première face, imprimée et protégée, constitue les deux côtés opposés du document.In this spirit, the invention relates to a printed and shaped document, said "insert" or "leaflet", comprising a single sheet, this sheet is printed continuously only on a first side which is coated with a protective film, while its second face, opposite to the first, is coated at least partially with a permanent adhesive, the sheet being folded along a fold line, so that its second face is folded back on itself and that its first face, printed and protected, constitute the two opposite sides of the document.

Grâce à l'invention, l'insert ou leaflet présente les mêmes propriétés que s'il était réalisé à partir d'un papier de fort grammage, c'est-à-dire une rigidité accrue facilitant sa préhension, un aspect « carteux » et une esthétique améliorée grâce au pelliculage, de telle sorte qu'il convient particulièrement à la réalisation d'encarts publicitaires pour des produits de luxe, tels que les parfums et cosmétiques. Grâce au fait qu'il comprend un feuillet rabattu sur lui-même, l'insert peut être réalisé à partir de papier de grammage relativement faible, car sa rigidité est augmentée par la superposition des deux parties du feuillet, de telle sorte qu'il est compatible avec une production en continu, d'où un coût de fabrication optimisé et un raccourcissement non négligeable du délai de mise à disposition du document à son utilisateur final, ce délai étant un aspect particulièrement important lorsqu'il s'agit de lancer une campagne promotionnelle.Thanks to the invention, the insert or leaflet has the same properties as if it were made from a heavy weight paper, that is to say, increased rigidity facilitating its grip, a "cardboard" appearance and improved aesthetics through lamination, so that it is particularly suitable for making advertising inserts for luxury goods, such as perfumes and cosmetics. Thanks to the fact that it includes a folded leaflet on itself, the insert can be made from paper relatively low grammage, because its rigidity is increased by the superposition of the two parts of the sheet, so that it is compatible with continuous production, resulting in an optimized manufacturing cost and a significant reduction in the time it takes to make the document available to its end-user, this delay being particularly important when it comes to launching a promotional campaign.

Selon un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention, la seconde face est complètement rabattue sur elle-même, aucune partie de celle-ci n'étant accessible. Selon une variante de réalisation, la seconde face est partiellement rabattue sur elle-même, un volet du feuillet, dont la seconde face est exposée, prolongeant une partie principale du feuillet dont la seconde face est collée sur elle-même. Ce volet permet l'agrafage de l'insert dans un magazine.According to a first embodiment of the invention, the second face is completely folded on itself, no part of it being accessible. According to one variant embodiment, the second face is partially folded on itself, a flap of the sheet, the second face is exposed, extending a main portion of the sheet whose second side is glued on itself. This flap allows stapling the insert in a magazine.

Selon un autre aspect avantageux de l'invention, le film protecteur est réalisé dans un matériau compatible avec son utilisation dans le milieu agroalimentaire, notamment en polypropylène, ce qui permet d'envisager l'insertion du document dans un emballage d'un produit. alimentaire en respectant les normes en vigueur et en préservant les mentions imprimées sur l'insert de l'humidité ambiante qui peut résulter de la nature des produits alimentaires mais également de condensation résultant de leur mode de stockage.According to another advantageous aspect of the invention, the protective film is made of a material compatible with its use in the food industry, in particular polypropylene, which makes it possible to envisage the insertion of the document into a package of a product. food respecting the standards in force and preserving the information printed on the insert of the ambient humidity which may result from the nature of the food products but also from condensation resulting from their storage mode.

L'invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication de documents tels que celui décrit ci-dessus, et, plus précisément, un procédé de fabrication de documents à partir d'un unique feuillet, ce procédé comprenant des étapes consistant à :

  • a) imprimer en continu sur une machine rotative des informations sur une première face d'une bande continue en mouvement ;
  • b) revêtir cette première face d'un film protecteur ;
  • c) enduire au moins une partie d'une seconde face de la bande, opposée à la première, d'un matériau adhésif permanent ;
  • d) plier la bande selon une ligne de pliage parallèle à la direction d'avance de la bande, en amenant la seconde face en recouvrement d'elle même et
  • e) découper la bande, au moins selon des lignes de découpe globalement perpendiculaires à la direction d'avance, pour former les documents précités.
The invention also relates to a method for producing documents such as that described above, and more specifically to a method for producing documents from a single sheet, this process comprising the steps of:
  • a) continuously printing on a rotary machine information on a first face of a moving web in motion;
  • b) coating this first face with a protective film;
  • c) coating at least a portion of a second face of the strip, opposite the first, of a permanent adhesive material;
  • d) folding the strip along a folding line parallel to the direction of advance of the strip, bringing the second face into recovery of itself and
  • e) cutting the strip, at least along cutting lines generally perpendicular to the direction of advance, to form the aforementioned documents.

Selon des variantes du procédé, les étapes b) c) peuvent être simultanées ou quasi simultanées ou l'étape b) peut être antérieure ou postérieure à l'étape c).According to variants of the method, steps b) c) can be simultaneous or almost simultaneous or step b) can be before or after step c).

Selon un autre aspect avantageux de l'invention, lors de l'étape c), on enduit la bande sur sensiblement la moitié de sa largeur.According to another advantageous aspect of the invention, during step c), the strip is coated on substantially half of its width.

Selon un autre aspect avantageux de l'invention, lors d'une étape supplémentaire ou lors de l'étape e), on découpe la bande au voisinage de la ligne de pliage et selon une ligne de découpe globalement parallèle à la direction d'avance, afin de séparer la ligne de pliage des documents finalisés. Ceci permet d'évacuer une partie de l'insert dans laquelle le pelliculage pourrait être imparfaitement plaqué sur la bande imprimée.According to another advantageous aspect of the invention, during an additional step or during step e), the strip is cut in the vicinity of the fold line and along a cutting line generally parallel to the direction of advance. , in order to separate the fold line from the finalized documents. This allows to evacuate a part of the insert in which the film coating could be imperfectly plated on the printed tape.

Les lignes de découpe ont avantageusement une géométrie définie en fonction d'un ou plusieurs motifs imprimés sur la première face précitée.The cutting lines advantageously have a geometry defined according to one or more patterns printed on the aforementioned first face.

L'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront plus clairement à la lumière de la description qui va suivre d'un procédé de fabrication et de documents conformes à l'invention obtenus grâce à ce procédé, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une représentation schématique de principe d'une installation de mise en oeuvre d'un procédé conforme à l'invention ;
  • la figure 2 est une vue en perspective d'un insert selon un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention ;
  • la figure 3 est une vue à plus grande échelle du détail III à la figure 2 ;
  • la figure 4 est une vue analogue à la figure 2 pour un document conforme à un second mode de réalisation de l'invention et
  • la figure 5 est une vue analogue à la figure 2 pour un document conforme à un troisième mode de réalisation de l'invention.
The invention will be better understood and other advantages thereof will appear more clearly in the light of the following description of a manufacturing method and documents according to the invention obtained by this method, given only to by way of example and with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • the figure 1 is a schematic representation of a principle of an installation for implementing a method according to the invention;
  • the figure 2 is a perspective view of an insert according to a first embodiment of the invention;
  • the figure 3 is a larger-scale view of detail III to the figure 2 ;
  • the figure 4 is a view similar to the figure 2 for a document according to a second embodiment of the invention and
  • the figure 5 is a view similar to the figure 2 for a document according to a third embodiment of the invention.

La production d'inserts façonnés et pelliculés est réalisée dans l'installation représentée à la figure 1 à partir d'une bande 1 de papier de grammage compris entre 100 et 200 g/m2, cette bande étant à l'origine enroulée sur une bobine 2.The production of shaped and film-coated inserts is carried out in the installation shown in FIG. figure 1 from a strip 1 of paper weight between 100 and 200 g / m 2 , this strip being originally wound on a spool 2.

Lors d'une première étape du procédé de fabrication conforme à l'invention, la bande 1 passe à travers une machine d'impression rotative 10 comprenant des groupes rouleaux 11 en nombre correspondant au nombre de couleur à appliquer. La machine 10 est utilisée pour apposer des motifs M uniquement sur la face supérieure 1a de la bande 1. En variante, plusieurs machines d'impressions peuvent être disposées les unes derrière les autres sur le trajet de la bande 1, chaque machine étant dédiée à une couleur d'impression.In a first step of the manufacturing method according to the invention, the band 1 passes through a rotary printing machine 10 comprising roller groups 11 in number corresponding to the number of colors to be applied. The machine 10 is used to affix M units only on the top face 1a of the belt 1. Alternatively, multiple prints of machines can be arranged one behind the other in the path of the strip 1, each machine is dedicated to a print color.

La bande 1 progresse alors, dans la direction des flèches F1, jusqu'à une machine 20 de pelliculage et d'encollage dans laquelle un film en polypropylène 3, préalablement enduit d'un adhésif adapté, est dévidé à partir d'une bobine 21 et appliqué sur la face 1a de la bande 1 grâce à deux rouleaux presseurs 22 et 23.The strip 1 then progresses, in the direction of the arrows F 1 , to a laminating and sizing machine 20 in which a polypropylene film 3, previously coated with a suitable adhesive, is unwound from a reel. 21 and applied to the face 1a of the strip 1 with two pressure rollers 22 and 23.

En variante, le film 3 peut ne pas être préalablement enduit d'adhésif et peut être fixé sur la bande 1 grâce à une colle appliquée dans la machine 20, tout particulièrement une colle de type « hot melt » qui présente l'avantage d'avoir une prise rapide sans risque de formation de bulles.As a variant, the film 3 may not be previously coated with adhesive and may be fixed on the strip 1 by virtue of an adhesive applied in the machine 20, in particular a "hot melt" type glue which has the advantage of have a quick grip without the risk of bubbles forming.

Immédiatement avant de passer entre les rouleaux 22 et 23, la bande 1 passe entre deux rouleaux 24 et 25 dont l'un, à savoir le rouleau 25, est constitué par un cylindre « anilox » baignant dans un bain B d'adhésif permanent contenu dans une cuve 26.Immediately before passing between the rollers 22 and 23, the band 1 passes between two rollers 24 and 25, one of which, namely the roll 25, is constituted by a cylinder "Anilox" bathed in a bath B of permanent adhesive contained in a tank 26.

La largeur l 26 de la cuve 26 ou celle du rouleau 25 est telle que la couche 27 d'adhésif déposée sur la face inférieure 1b de la bande 1 a une largeur l 27 sensiblement égale à la moitié de la largeur l 1 de la bande 1. En d'autres termes, la couche d'adhésif 27 est apposée sur sensiblement la moitié de la largeur de la bande 1. The width 26 of the vessel 26 or that of the roller 25 is such that the adhesive layer 27 deposited on the lower face 1b of the strip 1 has a width l 27 substantially equal to half the width l 1 of the In other words, the adhesive layer 27 is affixed to substantially half the width of the strip 1.

Selon une variante non représentée de l'invention, les étapes d'application du film 3 et d'encollage de la face 1b, qui sont ici quasi-simultanées, peuvent être décalées dans le temps, l'application du film pouvant être antérieure ou postérieure à l'encollage, ces deux opérations étant réalisées dans des parties de l'installation distinctes.According to a not shown variant of the invention, the steps of application of the film 3 and sizing of the face 1b , which are here almost simultaneous, can be shifted in time, the application of the film can be earlier or after sizing, these two operations being performed in separate parts of the installation.

Après son passage dans la machine 20, la bande 1 pelliculée et encollée est acheminée, en suivant la direction des flèches F1, jusqu'à une machine 30 où la face 1b est rabattue sur elle-même le long d'une ligne de pliage 1c située sensiblement au milieu de la largeur de la bande 1, de telle sorte que la partie encollée et la partie non encollée de la face 1b sont fermement plaquées l'une contre l'autre. Ainsi, au sortir de la machine 30, les deux côtés visibles de la bande 1 sont constitués par deux parties de sa face 1a qui est imprimée et revêtue du film 3, c'est-à-dire pelliculée.After passing through the machine 20, the laminated and glued strip 1 is conveyed, following the direction of the arrows F 1 , to a machine 30 where the face 1b is folded on itself along a line of folding 1 c located substantially in the middle of the width of the strip 1, so that the glued portion and the unsized portion of the face 1 b are firmly pressed against each other. Thus, out of the machine 30, the two visible sides of the strip 1 are formed by two parts of his face 1a which is printed and coated with the film 3, that is to say laminated.

La bande 1 est alors acheminée vers une machine de découpe 40 où la bande 1 est tronçonnée au moins selon une direction perpendiculaire à la direction des flèches F1, de telle sorte que des inserts I sont formés par tronçonnage avant d'être déversés dans un bac 41. Le découpage des inserts I peut avoir lieu par toute technique connue, notamment au moyen de rouleaux de découpe.The strip 1 is then conveyed to a cutting machine 40 where the strip 1 is cut at least in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the arrows F 1 , so that the inserts I are formed by cutting before being poured into a tray 41. The cutting of the inserts I can take place by any known technique, in particular by means of cutting rollers.

Dans le mode de réalisation de l'invention représenté aux figures 2 et 3, un premier insert I est formé et l'on note 101 et 102 ses bords longitudinaux, le bord 101 correspondant à la ligne de pliage 1c selon laquelle est pliée la bande 1 pour former l'insert I. On note par ailleurs 103 et 104 les bords transversaux de l'insert I. Un motif M en forme de biscuit est apposé sur les deux faces de l'insert I qui peut être utilisé comme objet publicitaire.In the embodiment of the invention shown in Figures 2 and 3 a first insert I is formed and 101 and 102 its longitudinal edges are noted, the edge 101 corresponding to the fold line 1 c in which is folded the band 1 to form the insert I. It is also noted 103 and 104 cross-edges of the insert I. A biscuit-shaped M is affixed to both sides of the insert I which can be used as an advertising object.

A la figure 3, les épaisseurs représentées ne sont pas nécessairement en proportion avec les épaisseurs d'un insert réel ; par exemple, la couche d'adhésif 27 est en réalité bien moins épaisse que la bande 1.To the figure 3 the thicknesses shown are not necessarily in proportion to the thicknesses of a real insert; for example, the adhesive layer 27 is actually much thinner than the strip 1.

Dans 1a zone du bord 101, le film 3 est tendu autour de la bande 1 qui est repliée sur elle-même. Afin de ne pas diminuer les qualités esthétiques de l'insert I du fait d'éventuels plis ou déformation localisées du film 3 dans cette zone, on peut envisager de découper l'insert I selon un plan P1 permettant de séparer la ligne de pliage 1c du reste de l'insert I. Cette opération de découpe peut être effectuée dans la machine 40 et a lieu selon une direction globalement parallèle à la direction d'avance F1.In the region of the edge 101, the film 3 is stretched around the band 1 which is folded back on itself. In order not to diminish the aesthetic qualities of the insert I due to any localized folds or deformation of the film 3 in this area, it is possible to cut the insert I according to a plane P 1 making it possible to separate the fold line 1c of the rest of the insert I. This cutting operation can be performed in the machine 40 and takes place in a direction generally parallel to the direction of advance F 1 .

En variante, les opérations de découpe selon la direction transversale, c'est-à-dire le façonnage des bords 103 et 104, peuvent être effectuées dans une première machine, l'opération de découpe longitudinale, c'est-à-dire selon le bord 101, et éventuellement selon le bord 102, pouvant être effectuée dans une seconde machine.Alternatively, the cutting operations in the transverse direction, that is to say the shaping of the edges 103 and 104, can be performed in a first machine, the longitudinal cutting operation, that is to say according to the edge 101, and possibly the edge 102, can be performed in a second machine.

Dans le second mode de réalisation d'un insert I conforme à l'invention représenté à la figure 4, tous les bords 101, 102, 103 et 104 de l'insert ont été découpés avec une forme non rectiligne reproduisant les bords du biscuit d'un motif M, ce qui permet de donner à l'insert ainsi réalisé un aspect plus réaliste.In the second embodiment of an insert I according to the invention shown in FIG. figure 4 , all the edges 101, 102, 103 and 104 of the insert have been cut with a non-rectilinear shape reproducing the edges of the biscuit of a pattern M, which allows to give the insert thus produced a more realistic appearance.

Dans le troisième mode de réalisation de l'invention représenté à la figure 5, la bande 1 a été rabattue sur une partie d'elle même de telle sorte qu'une partie 1b' de la surface 1b demeure accessible au niveau d'un volet 1d de simple épaisseur, le reste de l'insert I étant à double épaisseur et correspondant à la partie de la surface 1b qui est rabattue et collée sur elle-même.In the third embodiment of the invention shown in figure 5 , the band 1 has been folded over a part of itself so that a part 1 b 'of the surface 1 b remains accessible at a flap 1 d of simple thickness, the rest of the insert I being double thickness and corresponding to the part of the surface 1b which is folded and glued on itself.

Les bords 101, 103 et 104 de cet insert pourraient être découpés à la façon expliquée pour le second mode de réalisation. Le volet 1d permet d'envisager l'insertion de l'insert I dans un magazine, une partie du volet 1d étant superposée à la ligne de brochage A-A' du magazine, ce qui permet d'immobiliser l'insert I par rapport aux autres feuillets grâce à une ou des agrafes A.The edges 101, 103 and 104 of this insert could be cut in the manner explained for the second embodiment. The shutter 1d makes it possible to consider the insertion of the insert I in a magazine, a part of the shutter 1 being superimposed on the broaching line AA 'of the magazine, which allows to immobilize the insert I versus other leaflets with one or more staples A.

Le motif M apposé sur la face imprimée du feuillet n'est pas limité à l'exemple représenté et peut avoir toute forme ou couleur, selon l'usage prévu de l'insert ou du leaflet.The pattern M affixed to the printed face of the sheet is not limited to the example shown and may have any shape or color, depending on the intended use of the insert or leaflet.
