Definitions
- the present invention concerns the field of packaging systems of sheet-like articles intended for individual extraction.
- Articles of this type in general but not exclusively disposable, may comprise protective sheets or plastic film mantles (for example, made of polyethylene) for hairdressers, for beauty treatments such as body treatments with mud or cream.
- Articles of this kind are bundle packaged in groups of articles folded numerous times, so as to reach compact size shapes that facilitate storage and handling.
- the bundle can be arranged in a rigid box, made from cardboard or plastic material, or in a simple packet.
- the wrapper box or packet
- a bundle is made up of a stack of piled articles, joined along a side through punching or other types of connections or welding, with respective pre-cut lines running along the joining side and right beside it.
- the folding which reduces the size of the stack in a direction orthogonal to the pre-cut lines is thus carried out in a consecutive manner parallel to the aforementioned lines, so as to fold the stack upon itself.
- the direction orthogonal to the pre-cut lines (and to the folding lines) is the one along which a traction is exerted manually by the user to tear-away the articles, one by one, from the stack.
- the removal of one single article by tearing it away, as a result of the friction exerted between adjacent articles tends to unfold the stack of remaining articles in an uncontrolled manner, or in any case to alter the orderly arrangement.
- the articles are firstly provided, on one of the sides, with excess material with respect to the final desired size of the article intended for use.
- the excess material is that on which, once various articles have been piled up so as to form a stack, a mutual connection will be made between the articles to stabilise the stack itself. If, as generally occurs, the articles have a prevailing extension along a longitudinal direction, the excess material will be, contrary to the prior art, made in the transverse direction, whereby the article, before the assembling in the stack, will have the same length and oversized width with respect to the final, use configuration.
- an article 1 can be made up of a single sheet 1 ( figure 1a ), but can also have a doubled structure, like the single-fold article 11 of figure 1b , or a bellow-like structure as in the article 101 with multiple folds of figure 1 c. Moreover, like in the example of figure 1d , the article may take on the shape of a tube 1001. Such figures are obviously unrealistic diagrams, since it is clear that in all cases, as the article consists of a thin plastic, paper (or even fabric) film, even when it is folded it maintains an overall sheet-like squashed configuration. Such figures also represent the article in section on a plane orthogonal to the side along which the aforementioned excess extends, whereby the latter is represented and indicated, respectively, by the reference numerals 2, 12, 102, 1002.
- the excess 2 is in practice defined between one side or margin 1 a of the article 1, and a pre-cut line 3 (13, 103, 1003 in figures from 1b to 1d corresponding to the different embodiments), as can be clearly seen from figure 2 in which it is shown how a plurality of articles 1, in a variable number according to the cases, has been piled up to form a stack 4 of articles perfectly aligned with one another and orderly.
- the folding of the stack 4 is carried out, according to parallel and consecutive folding lines orthogonal with the pre-cut lines, thus folding the stack upon itself.
- the stack has a longitudinal extension parallel to the pre-cut lines 3
- the folds will therefore run in the transverse direction.
- the overall shape of the folding can vary, following for example a bellows shape like in figure 3 , or with consecutive book-like closures in figure 4 .
- the various pre-cut lines 3 continue to be superimposed to one another, just like the excess portions 2.
- the pre-cutting can also be made in this step, i.e. after the folding, or also on the stack 4 before being folded, instead of in the preliminary step on each single article 1.
- the subsequent step provides making a distribution of holes 5 on the excess portions 2, through cold or hot (if the material of the articles allows it) mechanical punching processes. These holes are needed for the mechanical fastening that consolidates the configuration of the folded stack (or of many stacks piled together), said fastening being carried out through tubular cores or flexible straps (not represented) to be engaged in the holes.
- the mechanical fastening means are normally connected mechanically to the wrapper in which, as a final step of the packaging method, the stack or stacks are arranged, all according to what can be found per se in the prior art.
- Such fastening means may also be made up of folded portions of the wrapper, and in general by any other mechanical system suitable for anchoring the stack or stacks to one or more fixed points so as to counteract the tearing force for removing the single article.
- the mechanical fixing means can even be left out, with it only being necessary to insert the holes 5 in any kind of support, either fixed or even simply held manually.
- a manual traction on a free side flap of the article itself (i.e. the flap opposite to the excess zone 2), along the axis X, counteracted indeed on the excess zone by the mechanical connection to the wrapper and/or by a manual withholding action.
- the tearing along the pre-cut line 3 will leave the excess portion 2 integral with the stack, the article thus being in the shape and size decided for its use.
- the prefixed object of the invention is thus fully achieved, with a solution that does not have any negative impact upon simplicity of production, and can be applied with articles of any shape and material already currently in use, not only in the sanitary and beauty treatment fields, but also in that of packaging films and in general wherever there is need for packaging analogous to that outlined above.
