Definitions
- the present invention relates to packaging for chest freezers and a method for its use.
- Chest freezers are currently packaged using complex composite containing structures covered with sheets of heat-shrinkable material, the purpose of which is to rigidify such structures and to ensure protection against damage and bad weather.
- Some of these packagings are not hermetically sealed, and even present relatively large apertures through which insects, dirt, dust and mice can enter.
- the main object of the present invention is to provide a specific packaging for chest freezers which is formed substantially from two easily and ecologically disposable materials and encloses the freezer on its six faces or sides in such a manner as to protect it from impact and bad weather.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a packaging for chest freezers which is economical and simple to apply.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a simple, economical and technically satisfactory method for using said packaging.
- the packaging of the invention contains a chest freezer 2.
- the packaging comprises: a structure formed preferably from single-material parts, for example expanded polystyrene (abbreviated EPS), which is further discussed hereinafter, and a consolidation and protection covering formed from known heat-shrinkable film, preferably semi-transparent, but not shown.
- EPS expanded polystyrene
- the aforesaid structure comprises two equal endpieces 3 which with their continuous perimetral wall surround a certain portion of the freezer, and four longitudinal members 5, commonly known as angle bars (two upper and two lower), connecting the two endpieces 3 together; the longitudinal members are of substantially L cross-section and, as is evident, cover the longitudinal comers of the enclosed freezer.
- the packaging method comprises hooding the freezer by using a sheet which closes the sixth, said sheet being joined to the hood of heat-shrinkable material (used for the hooding).
- opposing faces of the freezer can be enclosed by two sheets, which are then joined to a piece of tubular heat-shrinkable film previously drawn over the assembly.
- the upper longitudinal members 5 present seats 18 for receiving the matching ends 19 of transverse protection spacers 21 provided on the two opposing sides of the freezer 2. They are provided at their ends with protuberances 22 which are inserted into matching seats 30 present in the upper and lower longitudinal members respectively.
- the longitudinal members also present projecting parts 31, 32 to be inserted into matching seats 33 present in the endpieces 3.
- FIG. 2 A variant of the packaging is shown in Figure 2, in which parts equal or corresponding to those of the preceding figure are indicated by the same reference numerals accompanied by the letter A.
- This variant comprises a base indicated overall by 7, formed from two equal extremities or shoes 8 of blow-moulded polyethylene spaced apart by a pair of strips 9 obtained by extruding polystyrene or polyethyleneterephthalate (PET).
- PET polyethyleneterephthalate
- the extremities 8 present a suitable snap fitting ( Figure 3) for the ends of the strips 9, and a seat for the feet 12 with which the freezer is provided. At their ends the extremities 8 present cavities or seats 14 to receive feet 15 present on one side (the lower in Figure 2) of the freezer endpieces.
- the described structure also comprises two upper longitudinal members 5A presenting end projections 32A to be housed in seats 33A present in the endpieces 3A.
- the longitudinal members also present, in their side (the upper in Figure 2), seats 18A to receive the matching ends 19A of a transverse protection spacer 20A.
- Other vertical protection spacers 21A are provided on the two opposing sides of the freezer 2A. They are provided at their ends with protuberances which are inserted upperly into seats present in the vertical flange of the longitudinal members 5A and lowerly engage the strips 9 as a C-shaped fit.
- the packaging is used in the following manner.
- An endpiece (3, 3A) is rested horizontally on a rocking support.
- the freezer is rested on this latter by means of its side.
- a heat-shrinkable film in the form of a sheet, will have previously been inserted below the endpiece (3, 3A) on which the product is rested.
- the product is then hooded with a sack made of heat-shrinkable film (sealed by bonding at its upper end with reference to the hooding configuration).
- the freezer packaged in this manner is subjected to heat action to shrink the film and finally consolidate the packaging onto the freezer.
- the thus packaged product is hermetically sealed, except for a film portion, known as the microperforated portion, in the front and rear of the packaging to prevent condensation.
