  Emballage pour deux rangées d'objets
 La présente invention a pour objet un emballage destiné à emballer deux rangées d'objets dont les axes sont parallèles.



   Les emballages à extrémités ouvertes pour emballer des groupes d'objets tels que des boîtes de conserves et des bouteilles à capsules constituent un emballage économique et satisfaisant pour de nombreux produits.



  Toutefois, quand on doit assurer une protection contre la lumière aux articles emballés et si les emballages doivent tre transportés sur Ides distances importantes, il est désirable de prévoir des moyens de fermeture aux extrémités de ces emballages.



   Un but de l'invention est de fournir un emballage comportant des   moyens    de fermeture à ses extrémités.



   Un autre but est de fournir de tels moyens de fermeture qui assurent une protection complète contre la lumière et évitent tout endommagement des articles dû à un choc avec d'autres articles, l'emballage étant agencé pour assurer la sécurité maximum à ses extrémités.



   Le dessin annexé représente, à titre d'exemple, une forme d'exécution de l'objet de l'invention:
 la fig. 1 est une vue en perspective de cette forme d'exécution;
 la fig. 2 est une vue de bout correspondant à la fig. 1;
 la fig. 3 est une vue latérale correspondant à la fig. 1, et
 la fig. 4 est une vue en plan d'une ébauche à partir de laquelle est faite cette forme d'exécution.



     L'embaliage    pour bouteilles représenté constituant   une enveloppe comprend un panneau supérieur r 1 dans    lequel sont formées des ouvertures à languettes 2 à 7 destinées à recevoir les cols des bouteilles emballées dans l'emballage. Ces ouvertures 2 à 7 présentent des fentes radiales 8. Ces fentes forment des languettes 9 d'engagement des capsules des bouteilles. Ces   languett      tes 9 sont t disposées radialement et agencées pour enga-    ger les capsules par-dessous. Ainsi, le panneau supérieur 1 est fixé aux bouteilles emballées. Le panneau 1 présente aussi deux ouvertures 10 de prise pour les doigts.



   Pour se conformer aux épaules des bouteilles emballées, deux panneaux supérieurs inclinés 11 et 12 sont joints de façon pliable le long de lignes de pliage affaiblies 13 et 14 aux bords latéraux du panneau supérieur 1. Deux panneaux latéraux 15 et 16 sont joints de façon pliable aux panneaux inclinés 11 et 12 le long de lignes de pliage affaiblies 17 et 18. De mme, des panneaux inférieurs inclinés 19 et 20 sont joints de façon pliable aux bords inférieurs des panneaux latéraux 15 et 16 le long de lignes de pliage affaiblies 21 et 22. Des ouvertures 23, 24 et 25 sont formées dans le panneau inférieur incliné 19 et sont destinées à recevoir les bouteilles.



  Le fond des bouteilles fait saillie à travers ces ouvertures 23, 24 et 25 qui servent à tenir les bouteilles en place dans l'emballage. De la mme   façon,    des ouvertures 26, 27 et 28 sont formées dans le panneau inférieur incliné 20 et correspondent aux ouvertures 23, 24 et 25.



   Pour former le fond de l'emballage, deux panneaux de fond 29 et 30 sont joints de façon pliable aux panneaux inclinés 19 et 20, respectivement, le long de lignes de pliage 31 et 32.



   Pour serrer l'enveloppe constituée par ces panneaux autour d'un groupe de bouteilles à emballer, deux ouvertures de serrage 33 et 34 sont formées dans le panneau de fond 29 et deux ouvertures de serrage   semblables 35 et 36 ; sont : formées dans le panneau de    fond 30. Comme il est connu, des éléments de machine peuvent entrer dans les ouvertures de serrage 33 et 34 et se déplacer au-dessous du groupe de bouteilles vers le passage de fond 30. Des éléments de machine  semblables peuvent entrer dans les ouvertures 35 et 36
 et tirer le panneau 30 vers le panneau 29. Une fois l'enveloppe convenablement serrée, des pattes de   ver-.   
 rouillage 37 à 40 formées dans le panneau de fond 29
 sont tirées à travers des ouvertures de verrouillage définies par des pattes de retenue 41 à 44 formées dans le
 panneau de fond 30.

   Il est évident que les panneaux 29 et 30 se recouvrent alors, le panneau 30 étant disposé à l'intérieur.



   Pour séparer les bouteilles extrmes d'un côté de l'enveloppe des bouteilles du milieu, deux pattes 45 et
 46 sont découpées dans le panneau 29 et jointes--de façon pliable à ce dernier le long de lignes de pliage 47 et 48. De la mme façon, des pattes 49 et 50 sont découpées dans le panneau 30 et jointes de façon plia
 ble à ce dernier le long de lignes de pliage 51 et 52.



  Les pattes 45 et 46 comme les pattes 49 et 50 sont pliées dans un plan général perpendiculaire aux panneaux de fond 29 et 30 (fig. 2 et 3).



   Dans le but de former une fermeture pour les extrémités de l'enveloppe, deux   panneaux    extrmes de fermeture 53 et 54 sont joints de façon pliable   le long    de lignes de pliage 55 et 56, respectivement aux extrémités du panneau latéral 16. De mme, deux panneaux extrmes de fermeture 57 et 58 sont joints de façon pliable. le long de lignes de pliage 59 et 60, aux bords extrmes   du-panneau¯¯latral    15.

   Une patte de verrouillage
 61 à crochets est formée sur le bord interne du panneau extrme 53, et une patte semblable 62 est formée sur le bord interne du panneau extrme 54.   Deux. fen-    tes 63 et 64 sont formées respectivement dans les pan
 neaux extrmes. 57 et 58 pour recevoir les pattes de
 verrouillage 61 et 62 de manière à constituer un verrouillage pour les panneaux extrmes à l'extrémité du
 support. On voit aux fig. 1 et 2 que la patte 61 glisse simplement à travers la fente 63 depuis l'extérieur afin de fixer les panneaux extrmes 53 et 57   l'un    à l'autre.



   Pour contribuer à maintenir la fermeture constituée par les panneaux extrmes vers l'intérieur et en engagement avec les bouteilles extrmes adjacentes, deux
 encoches de verrouillage 67 et 68 sont formées dans un panneau de - séparation 65 médian joint de façon
 pliable le long d'une ligne de pliage 66 à un bord du panneau de fond 30. Le panneau de séparation 65 est
 perpendiculaire aux panneaux de fond 29 et 30 (fig.



   1 et 2).



   Les pattes 61 et 62 présentent chacune deux crochets 61a et 62a respectivement. Ainsi quand les pat  tes    61 et 62-sont insérées dans les fentes 63 et 64, le verrouillage obtenu empche efficacement tout mouvement relatif entre les panneaux 53 et 57, particulièrement dans le sens -tendant à augmenter leurs surfaces
 de recouvrement le long des bords adjacents de ces panneaux. Comme les encoches 67 et 68 sont espacées vers l'intérieur d'une courte distance depuis les extré  mités du    panneau médian 65, la largeur effective des panneaux extrmes 53 et 57, qui est établie quand la patte 61 est complètement insérée dans la fente 63, est quelque peu supérieure à l'espacement entre les lignes de pliage 55 et 59. De la mme façon, l'espacement entre les lignes de pliage 56 à 60 est inférieur à la largeur effective des panneaux extrmes 54 et 58.

   Ainsi quand les panneaux 53 et 57 sont fermés, il se produit une poussée sur ces panneaux quand ils se logent dans l'encoche 67. Par ce moyen, les plateaux 53 et 57 sont quelque peu cintrés vers l'intérieur du support comme l'indiquent les lignes. d'ombre   57' et    53'. Ce cintrage contribue à obliger les panneaux 53 et 57 à se conformer de façon générale à la courbure des bouteilles adjacentes et, ce qui est plus important, aide fortement à maintenir les panneaux 53 et 57 fermés.

   Si l'emballage tend à s'étaler par suite d'un mouvement vertical relatif entre les rangées de bouteilles C, les crochets 61a et 62a maintiennent efficacement les pattes 61 et 62 en condition de verrouillage, augmentant ainsi la sécurité assurée par l'emballage et due au moins en partie au fait que les fentes   63 eut    64 et-les plans des panneaux 57 et 58 sont de façon générale parallèles aux bouteilles C et que les crochets 61a et 62a sont verrouillés avec la fente 63 ou 64 correspondante.



   La sécurité du verrouillage entre les panneaux extrmes est améliorée encore par des pattes de retenue 53a et 54a sur les panneaux 53 et 54 qui retiennent les bords inférieurs des panneaux associés de façon sûre dans les encoches de verrouillage 67 et 68. Cette action contribue aussi à maintenir fermés les panneaux 57 et 58 par le fait que ces panneaux sont disposés en arrière des panneaux 53 et 54 et des pattes 53a et 54a. Des lignes affaiblies 53b et 54b facilitent le mouvement des pattes 53a et 54a dans la position verrouillée sans diminuer la sécurité du verrouillage.



   On comprend que le panneau extrme 53 est simplement forcé   intérieurement vsles    bouteilles. extrmes jusqu'à ce que sa partie inférieure passe dans l'encoche de verrouillage 67. Cet arrangement sert évidemment à maintenir les deux panneaux 53 et 57 fermés de façon sûre. De mme, les panneaux extrmes 54 et   58 sont    maintenus en position fermée par l'encoche de verrouillage 68 à l'autre extrémité du panneau de séparation 65.



   On voit aux fig. 1 et 2 que le panneau extrme 53 est formé de façon à se conformer aux parties adjacentes de l'enveloppe, comme c'est le cas aussi pour le panneau extrme 57. Par exemple, le panneau 53 est coupé en 69 pour se conformer à la disposition générale du panneau incliné supérieur 13. De mme, ce panneau 53 est coupé en 70 afin de se conformer à la disposition générale du panneau 20.   I1    en est de mme du panneau 57 qui est découpé en 71 et 72. Les panneaux extrmes 54 et 58 sont construits de manière à se conformer à l'extrémité opposée de l'emballage.



   On comprend d'après la description ci-dessus qu'une protection est assurée aux articles emballés, aux extrémités de l'enveloppe, par les panneaux extrmes 53, 54, 57 et 58 et par la structure associée à ces panneaux.



  Comme les languettes disposées autour des- ouvertures 2 à 7 dans le panneau supérieur 1 servent à fixer ce panneau fermement en place relativement aux articles emballés, la position de tous les panneaux extrmes 53, 54, 57 et 58 est déterminée, ce qui assure une fermeture sûre et robuste aux extrémités de   l'enveloppe.   
  



  
 



  Packaging for two rows of objects
 The present invention relates to a package intended to package two rows of objects the axes of which are parallel.



   Open ended packages for wrapping groups of objects such as tin cans and bottle caps provide economical and satisfactory packaging for many products.



  However, when it is necessary to provide protection against light to the packaged articles and if the packagings are to be transported over long distances, it is desirable to provide closure means at the ends of these packagings.



   An object of the invention is to provide a package comprising closure means at its ends.



   Another object is to provide such closure means which provide complete protection against light and prevent any damage to the articles due to impact with other articles, the packaging being arranged to ensure maximum security at its ends.



   The appended drawing represents, by way of example, an embodiment of the object of the invention:
 fig. 1 is a perspective view of this embodiment;
 fig. 2 is an end view corresponding to FIG. 1;
 fig. 3 is a side view corresponding to FIG. 1, and
 fig. 4 is a plan view of a blank from which this embodiment is made.



     The packaging for bottles shown constituting an envelope comprises an upper panel r 1 in which are formed tab openings 2 to 7 intended to receive the necks of the bottles packed in the packaging. These openings 2 to 7 have radial slots 8. These slots form tongues 9 for engaging the bottle caps. These tongues 9 are disposed radially and arranged to engage the capsules from below. Thus, the top panel 1 is attached to the packed bottles. Panel 1 also has two finger grip openings 10.



   To conform to the shoulders of the packed bottles, two angled top panels 11 and 12 are foldably joined along weakened fold lines 13 and 14 to the side edges of the top panel 1. Two side panels 15 and 16 are foldably joined. to the inclined panels 11 and 12 along weakened fold lines 17 and 18. Likewise, inclined lower panels 19 and 20 are foldably joined to the lower edges of side panels 15 and 16 along weakened fold lines 21 and 22. Openings 23, 24 and 25 are formed in the inclined lower panel 19 and are intended to receive the bottles.



  The bottoms of the bottles protrude through these openings 23, 24 and 25 which serve to hold the bottles in place in the package. Likewise, openings 26, 27 and 28 are formed in the inclined lower panel 20 and correspond to openings 23, 24 and 25.



   To form the bottom of the package, two bottom panels 29 and 30 are foldably joined to the inclined panels 19 and 20, respectively, along fold lines 31 and 32.



   To clamp the envelope formed by these panels around a group of bottles to be packaged, two clamping openings 33 and 34 are formed in the bottom panel 29 and two similar clamping openings 35 and 36; are: formed in the bottom panel 30. As is known, machine elements can enter the clamp openings 33 and 34 and move below the group of bottles towards the bottom passage 30. Machine elements similar can enter openings 35 and 36
 and pull the panel 30 towards the panel 29. Once the casing is properly tightened, the tabs of ver-.
 rusting 37 to 40 formed in the bottom panel 29
 are pulled through locking openings defined by retaining tabs 41-44 formed in the
 bottom panel 30.

   It is obvious that the panels 29 and 30 then overlap, the panel 30 being disposed inside.



   To separate the end bottles on one side of the shell from the middle bottles, two tabs 45 and
 46 are cut from panel 29 and joined foldably to the latter along fold lines 47 and 48. Likewise, tabs 49 and 50 are cut from panel 30 and joined in a folded fashion.
 ble to the latter along fold lines 51 and 52.



  The legs 45 and 46 like the legs 49 and 50 are folded in a general plane perpendicular to the bottom panels 29 and 30 (Figs. 2 and 3).



   In order to form a closure for the ends of the envelope, two end closure panels 53 and 54 are joined in a foldable manner along fold lines 55 and 56, respectively at the ends of the side panel 16. Likewise, two end closure panels 57 and 58 are foldably joined. along fold lines 59 and 60 at the end edges of the side panel 15.

   A locking tab
 61 hook is formed on the inner edge of the end panel 53, and a similar tab 62 is formed on the inner edge of the end panel 54. Two. windows 63 and 64 are formed respectively in the sides
 extremes. 57 and 58 to receive the legs of
 locking 61 and 62 so as to constitute a locking for the end panels at the end of the
 support. We see in fig. 1 and 2 that the tab 61 simply slides through the slot 63 from the outside in order to secure the end panels 53 and 57 to each other.



   To help maintain the closure formed by the end panels inward and in engagement with adjacent end bottles, two
 Locking slots 67 and 68 are formed in a middle parting panel 65 joined so
 foldable along a fold line 66 at an edge of the bottom panel 30. The divider panel 65 is
 perpendicular to the bottom panels 29 and 30 (fig.



   1 and 2).



   The legs 61 and 62 each have two hooks 61a and 62a respectively. Thus when the tabs 61 and 62 are inserted into the slots 63 and 64, the locking obtained effectively prevents any relative movement between the panels 53 and 57, particularly in the direction -tending to increase their surfaces.
 overlap along the adjacent edges of these panels. Since the notches 67 and 68 are spaced inwardly a short distance from the ends of the middle panel 65, the effective width of the end panels 53 and 57, which is established when the tab 61 is fully inserted into the slot 63 , is somewhat greater than the spacing between the fold lines 55 and 59. Likewise, the spacing between the fold lines 56 to 60 is less than the effective width of the end panels 54 and 58.

   Thus when the panels 53 and 57 are closed, there is a thrust on these panels when they fit into the notch 67. By this means, the trays 53 and 57 are somewhat bent inwardly of the support as the indicate the lines. shade 57 'and 53'. This bending helps to force panels 53 and 57 to conform generally to the curvature of adjacent bottles and, more importantly, greatly assists in keeping panels 53 and 57 closed.

   If the package tends to spread out as a result of relative vertical movement between the rows of bottles C, the hooks 61a and 62a effectively hold the tabs 61 and 62 in a locked condition, thereby increasing the security provided by the package. and due at least in part to the fact that the slots 63 had 64 and the planes of the panels 57 and 58 are generally parallel to the bottles C and that the hooks 61a and 62a are locked with the corresponding slot 63 or 64.



   The security of the locking between the end panels is further enhanced by retaining tabs 53a and 54a on the panels 53 and 54 which retain the lower edges of the associated panels securely in the locking slots 67 and 68. This action also helps to prevent keep the panels 57 and 58 closed by the fact that these panels are arranged behind the panels 53 and 54 and the tabs 53a and 54a. Weakened lines 53b and 54b facilitate movement of legs 53a and 54a into the locked position without diminishing the security of the lock.



   It is understood that the end panel 53 is simply forced internally against the bottles. extremes until its lower part passes into the locking notch 67. This arrangement obviously serves to hold the two panels 53 and 57 securely closed. Likewise, the end panels 54 and 58 are held in the closed position by the locking notch 68 at the other end of the separation panel 65.



   We see in fig. 1 and 2 that the end panel 53 is formed to conform to adjacent parts of the casing, as is also the case for the end panel 57. For example, the panel 53 is cut at 69 to conform to the general arrangement of the upper inclined panel 13. Likewise, this panel 53 is cut at 70 in order to conform to the general arrangement of the panel 20. The same is true of the panel 57 which is cut at 71 and 72. The end panels 54 and 58 are constructed to conform to the opposite end of the package.



   It will be understood from the above description that protection is provided to the packaged articles, at the ends of the envelope, by the end panels 53, 54, 57 and 58 and by the structure associated with these panels.



  Since the tabs disposed around openings 2-7 in top panel 1 serve to secure this panel firmly in place relative to the packaged items, the position of all end panels 53, 54, 57 and 58 is determined, which provides secure and robust closure at the ends of the envelope.
