  • Patent number: 6264034
    Abstract: Cardboard packing case for transporting a load with a base and at least four walls, a film made from heat-shrinkable plastic material, and a horizontal added board for pressing down and holding the heat-shrinkable film flat on the inner face of the base of the case, the board having a median line parallel to two walls for longitudinal folding of the board into a tent shape, the median line having a ridge facing towards the top of the case, wherein the film is in the form of a rectangular curtain in a single piece emerging on either side of two opposite edges of the board parallel to the median folding line and extending from those edges over a length sufficient to cover over one another, such that the film envelopes the load and immobilizes it by heat shrinking of the film, and a process and device for producing such a packing case.

  • Patent number: 6216871
    Abstract: The invention is a packaging case made of cardboard for transporting a load, a method and a device for packaging such a case. The case includes a lateral band (2, 3, 4, 5) and a horizontal base (6) integral with the band via joining lines, and a heat shrinkable plastic film material (7, 8, 9) for packaging and holding the load securely. The case also includes at least one rigid mounted plate (11), pressing the heat shrinkable film on the internal face of the base of the case leaving free strips of material arranged for blocking the load by shrinking on the film, the plate being inserted between at least two first vertically opposite walls of the case such that the edges of the plate are in contact via the plastic film with at least part of the joining lines of the first walls. The case further includes structure for blocking the plate against the base.

  • Patent number: 5400955
    Abstract: Box of sheet material, such as cardboard or corrugated cardboard, including square or rectangular lateral faces, in pairs, connected by a folding line. The folding lines are mutually parallel and the lateral faces forming a right-angled parallelepiped (pa). This box includes other lateral faces forming a pyramid (py) adjoined by its base to the parallelepiped. It is obtained from a blank of sheet material including triangular or trapezoidal panels hinged to rectangular or square panels.

  • Patent number: 5381948
    Abstract: Packaging made of sheet-type material, such as cardboard or corrugated cardboard, of at least approximately parallelepipedal shape and blank for producing it. The faces (1 to 4) have different heights, with the faces of greater height having a width which is at most equal to the distance separating two consecutive faces of greater height when the packaging is a blank. Saving of material on cutting out the blanks by interfitting of the flaps and/or tabs of two consecutive blanks is also effected.
