Abstract

The procedure for attaching a card or plastic label (7) to the side (9) of a box such as a moulded plastic box used for packing fish consists of pushing the label vertically upwards between a central projection (18) with a tapered front surface on the side of the box and two outer thrust ribs (13) under the rim of the box which project inwards. The ribs press the label towards the side (9) of the box and the projection engages with a hole (17) in the label, holding it in place. Side walls (22) prevent the label from moving sideways.

Description

L'invention concerne un procédé pour fixer une plaquette flexible élastiquement sur un support en appliquant une première face de la plaquette sur une surface réceptrice du support.The invention relates to a method for fixing a plate. resiliently flexible on a support by applying a first side of the wafer on a receiving surface of the support.

Il est courant de fixer par collage, sur des caisses contenant des produits, des étiquettes sous forme de plaquettes en bristol ou en matière plastique, portant des informations sur les produits.It is common to fix by gluing, on boxes containing products, labels in the form of plates in Bristol or plastic, bearing information on products.

Le collage des étiquettes présente de sérieux inconvénients. L'application de la colle, ou selon le cas l'élimination d'une feuille protectrice recouvrant une étiquette préencollée, puis la mise en place de l'étiquette sur la caisse, sont des opérations coûteuses en main d'oeuvre. De plus, si l'étiquette est mal positionnée, il est généralement difficile ou impossible de rectifier sa position, ce qui entraíne une dépense supplémentaire de main d'oeuvre et dans certains cas la perte de l'étiquette.Sticking labels has serious drawbacks. The application of the adhesive, or as the case may be, the elimination a protective sheet covering a pre-glued label, then placing the label on the box, are labor-intensive operations. In addition, if the label is misplaced, it is generally difficult or impossible to correct its position, which results an additional labor expense and in some loss of the label.

Le but de l'invention est de simplifier et de rendre plus économique la mise en place des étiquettes ou de plaquettes analogues.The object of the invention is to simplify and make more economical placing labels or tags analogues.

L'invention vise notamment un procédé du genre défini en introduction, et prévoit qu'on déplace la plaquette parallèlement à elle-même, selon un mouvement d'avance, le long de la surface réceptrice jusqu'à une position finale, la plaquette étant sollicitée en flexion par au moins trois éléments déflecteurs prévus sur le support en regard de la surface réceptrice, appartenant à deux types différents disposés en alternance dans une direction transversale par rapport au mouvement d'avance, à savoir au moins un élément d'écartement agissant sur ladite première face pour écarter la plaquette de la surface réceptrice et au moins un élément d'appui agissant sur la seconde face de la plaquette, opposée à sa première face, pour rapprocher la plaquette de la surface réceptrice, un bord de la plaquette tourné vers l'arrière qui se situe, dans ladite position finale, au-delà d'au moins un élément d'écartement coopérant avec celui-ci, après retour élastique de la plaquette, pour empêcher un mouvement de cette dernière en sens inverse du mouvement d'avance, des moyens de limitation vers l'avant et des moyens de limitation latérale étant prévus pour empêcher respectivement la poursuite du mouvement d'avance et un mouvement dans ladite direction transversale, à partir de la position finale.The invention relates in particular to a method of the kind defined in introduction, and plans to move the wafer parallel to itself, in a movement of advance, along the receiving surface to a final position, the insert being flexed by at least three deflector elements provided on the support opposite the receiving surface, belonging to two different types arranged alternately in a transverse direction by relation to the advance movement, namely at least one element spacing acting on said first face to spread the plate of the receiving surface and at least one element support acting on the second face of the plate, opposite on its first side, to bring the plate closer to the receiving surface, one edge of the wafer facing the rear which is located, in said final position, beyond at least one spacer element cooperating therewith, after elastic return of the wafer, to prevent movement of the latter in opposite direction to the movement in advance, means for limiting forward and means of lateral limitation being provided to prevent respectively continuing the advance movement and a movement in said transverse direction, from the position final.

Les caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention seront exposés plus en détail dans la description ci-après, en se référant aux dessins annexés.The characteristics and advantages of the invention will be described in more detail in the description below, in referring to the attached drawings.

La figure 1 est une vue partielle en coupe d'une caisse sur laquelle une étiquette a été fixée par le procédé selon l'invention.Figure 1 is a partial sectional view of a box on which a label has been attached by the method according to the invention.

La figure 2 est une vue partielle en coupe selon la ligne II-II de la figure 1.Figure 2 is a partial sectional view along line II-II of figure 1.

La figure 3 est une vue partielle en coupe selon la ligne III-III de la figure 1, montrant l'étiquette au cours de son mouvement d'avance.Figure 3 is a partial sectional view along the line III-III of Figure 1, showing the label during its advance movement.

La caisse partiellement représentée sur la figure 1 est réalisée en matière plastique moulée par injection. À titre d'exemple, elle est destinée à être utilisée à bord d'un chalutier pour le conditionnement du poisson. Elle présente la forme générale d'un tronc de pyramide délimité par un fond 2 sensiblement rectangulaire et par quatre parois latérales 3, 4 s'élevant respectivement à partir des quatre côtés du fond, selon des plans inclinés vers l'extérieur. La paroi latérale 3, traversée par le plan de coupe de la figure 1, se raccorde par son bord supérieur à un rebord extérieur comprenant une partie supérieure 5 s'étendant sensiblement selon un plan parallèle au fond 2 et une partie extérieure descendante 6. Le rebord 5, 6 se raccorde à des rebords semblables associés aux trois autres parois latérales pour former un rebord périphérique continu autour de la caisse.The body partially shown in Figure 1 is made of injection molded plastic. As example, it is intended to be used on board a trawler for fish packaging. She presents the general shape of a pyramid trunk bounded by a background 2 substantially rectangular and by four side walls 3, 4 rising respectively from the four sides of the bottom, according to planes inclined outwards. Wall lateral 3, crossed by the section plane of FIG. 1, is connects by its upper edge to an outer rim comprising an upper part 5 extending substantially along a plane parallel to the bottom 2 and an outer part downward 6. The edge 5, 6 is connected to edges similar associated with the other three side walls for form a continuous peripheral rim around the body.

Une étiquette en bristol 7 est fixée sur la paroi 3, une face 8 de l'étiquette étant appliquée sur la face extérieure 9 de cette paroi. L'étiquette 7 présente une forme générale rectangulaire et possède un bord supérieur 10 sensiblement rectiligne tourné vers la partie horizontale 5 du rebord 5, 6, un bord inférieur 11 opposé au bord 10 et deux bords latéraux 12 situés sensiblement dans des plans verticaux. L'étiquette 7 est appliquée sur la face extérieure 9 de la paroi 3 par deux nervures 13 s'étendant sensiblement selon des plans verticaux perpendiculaires au plan de la paroi 3 et par conséquent parallèles aux bords 12. Chacune des nervures 13 est rattachée aux parties 5, 6 du rebord, et à la paroi 3 dans sa région 14 située au-dessus du bord 10, et présente un bord libre 15 tourné vers le bas. Au-dessous de la région 14, la nervure 13 est séparée de la paroi 3 par une fente 16 d'une épaisseur de l'ordre de 1 mm, permettant l'insertion de l'étiquette 7.A Bristol board label 7 is attached to the wall 3, one side 8 of the label being applied to the outer face 9 of this wall. Label 7 has a general shape rectangular and has an upper edge 10 substantially straight facing towards the horizontal part 5 of the rim 5, 6, a lower edge 11 opposite the edge 10 and two edges side 12 located substantially in vertical planes. The label 7 is applied to the outer face 9 of the wall 3 by two ribs 13 extending substantially along vertical planes perpendicular to the plane of the wall 3 and therefore parallel to the edges 12. Each of the ribs 13 is attached to the parts 5, 6 of the rim, and to the wall 3 in its region 14 located above the edge 10, and has a free edge 15 facing down. Below region 14, the rib 13 is separated from the wall 3 by a slot 16 with a thickness of the order of 1 mm, allowing the insertion of label 7.

Dans la région médiane de sa largeur, entre les deux zones recouvertes par les nervures 13, l'étiquette 7 présente une ouverture rectangulaire 17 située au voisinage du bord supérieur 10. L'ouverture 17 permet le passage d'un bossage 18 résultant d'une incurvation locale vers l'extérieur de la paroi 13. Une découpe 19 est réalisée dans la paroi 3, dans le prolongement du bossage 18 et au-dessus de celui-ci, et dans la partie de rebord 5, facilitant le démoulage de la caisse. Le bord inférieur de cette découpe définit une tranche libre supérieure 20 du bossage. Comme vu sur la figure 1, le bossage 18 présente un profil triangulaire, sa face 21 tournée vers l'extérieur de la caisse étant inclinée par rapport au plan de la paroi 3 et s'éloignant progressivement de celui-ci de bas en haut en direction de la tranche 20.In the middle region of its width, between the two zones covered by the ribs 13, the label 7 has a rectangular opening 17 located near the edge upper 10. The opening 17 allows the passage of a boss 18 resulting from a local outward curving of the wall 13. A cutout 19 is made in wall 3, in the extension of the boss 18 and above it, and in the rim part 5, facilitating the demolding of the checkout. The bottom edge of this cutout defines a upper free edge 20 of the boss. As seen on the Figure 1, the boss 18 has a triangular profile, its face 21 facing outwards from the body being inclined relative to the plane of the wall 3 and gradually moving away of it from bottom to top towards the edge 20.

La caisse présente deux autres bossages creux 22 disposés de part et d'autre de l'étiquette 7, en regard de ses bords latéraux 12, la paroi de chaque bossage 22 s'étendant vers l'extérieur à partir de la paroi 3 et vers le bas à partir de la partie 5.The body has two other hollow bosses 22 arranged with on either side of label 7, opposite its edges side 12, the wall of each boss 22 extending towards outside from wall 3 and down from part 5.

Dans la position illustrée sur les figures 1 et 2, l'étiquette 7 est immobilisée perpendiculairement à son propre plan du fait qu'elle est emprisonnée entre la paroi 3 et les nervures 13. Dans son propre plan, un mouvement éventuel vers le haut est limité par la venue en butée de son bord supérieur 10 contre le fond 23 des fentes 16 des nervures 13. Un mouvement éventuel vers le bas est limité par la venue en butée du bord supérieur 24 de l'ouverture 17 sur la tranche 20 du bossage 18. Enfin, un mouvement éventuel dans la direction latérale est limité par la venue en butée, soit d'un bord latéral 25 de l'ouverture 17 contre le côté correspondant du bossage 18, soit d'un bord latéral 12 de l'étiquette contre le bossage 22 correspondant.In the position illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, the label 7 is immobilized perpendicular to its own plan of the fact that it is trapped between the wall 3 and the ribs 13. In its own plane, a possible movement towards the top is limited by the abutment of its upper edge 10 against the bottom 23 of the slots 16 of the ribs 13. A possible downward movement is limited by the coming in stop of the upper edge 24 of the opening 17 on the edge 20 of the boss 18. Finally, a possible movement in the lateral direction is limited by the abutment, either a side edge 25 of the opening 17 against the side corresponding to the boss 18, or a side edge 12 of the label against the corresponding boss 22.

Pour fixer l'étiquette 7 sur la caisse 1 par le procédé selon l'invention, on la tient devant la face 9 en appliquant son bord 10 contre celle-ci, en regard des nervures 13. On pousse alors l'étiquette vers le haut de façon à engager son bord 10 dans les fentes 16 des nervures. Pendant ce mouvement, le bord 10 vient en contact avec la surface inclinée 21 du bossage 18, qui provoque un fléchissement élastique de l'étiquette en écartant la région médiane de sa largeur de la paroi 3, tandis que ses régions latérales sont maintenues contre celle-ci par les nervures 13 qui s'appuient sur sa face extérieure 26, comme montré sur la figure 3. Les bossages 22 assurent un guidage latéral du déplacement de l'étiquette, amenant l'ouverture 17 en coïncidence avec le bossage 18. Lorsque l'ouverture 17 parvient dans une position telle qu'elle entoure entièrement le bossage 18, l'étiquette se redresse par retour élastique, le bossage pénétrant dans l'ouverture comme montré sur la figure 1.To fix the label 7 on the box 1 by the process according to the invention, we hold it in front of face 9 by applying its edge 10 against it, opposite the ribs 13. We push then the label upwards so as to engage its edge 10 in the slots 16 of the ribs. During this movement, the edge 10 comes into contact with the inclined surface 21 of the boss 18, which causes an elastic deflection of the label by spreading the middle region of its width from the wall 3, while its lateral regions are maintained against it by the ribs 13 which rest on its outer face 26, as shown in FIG. 3. The bosses 22 provide lateral guidance of the movement of the label, bringing the opening 17 in coincidence with the boss 18. When the opening 17 reaches a position as it completely surrounds the boss 18, the label straightens by elastic return, the boss penetrating into the opening as shown in figure 1.
