  • Patent number: 8117722
    Abstract: A container is realisable by folding a laminar element (10), and the laminar element comprises: mutually adjacent principal faces (20), connected to each other by principal folding lines (30), the principal faces extending along a principal axis (20a) and presenting respectively principal sides (20b) parallel to the principal axis and located respectively at a first (20c) and a second distance (20d) from the latter; auxiliary faces (40) emerging from each principal face along respective second axes of extension (40a) orthogonal to the principal axis and connected to the principal faces by auxiliary folding lines (50). For at least one pair of principal sides of at least one principal face, the first and the second distance are different in value, the principal sides of a principal face presenting a respective offset (60), transverse with respect to the principal axis and different, for each principal side, with respect to an ideal mid-line of the principal face to which they belong.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7213312
    Abstract: A funerary container made of paper material comprises a predetermined number of laminar elements (2) flexibly connected to each other and defining in mutual cooperation a housing box (3) destined to contain a body and having at least a bottom wall, a plurality of lateral wall and at least a closure portion; the container further comprises a predetermined number of assembly devices (4), whereof each is operatively active on at least two laminar elements (2) to maintain them in a mutually approach position in operative conditions. At least one of the assembly devices (4) comprises at least a main fastening element (5) irremovably connected to a first laminar element (2a) and destined to receive in coupling fashion at least a second laminar element (2b). The assembly device (4) further comprises a complementary fastening element (6) operatively active on the second laminar element (2b) in operative conditions and destined to engage at least partially with the main fastening element (5).
