Abstract

Packing for various elements, adaptable to the shape of the elements or objects to be packed, is characterized in that it is constituted from a flexible structure formed by a core of separate rigid or semi-rigid portions and separately joined together, and a pair of covers fixed on the faces of said core or core of rigid or semi-rigid portions, one of the covers corresponding to a sheet of flexible material intended to form the inner face of the package, while the other cover, of flexible and impermeable material, is intended to form the outer layer of the packaging itself; having foreseen that in the own process of manufacture include elastic straps for maintenance of the packaging on the object to protect.

Description

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a package for various elements preferably and fundamentally intended to protect sets of materials that need to be preserved from moisture and shock during transport and storage thereof, and among whose elements or materials can be mentioned bodies metallic, cable reels or any other material, etc., that is to say any that presents cylindrical, round or irregular shapes.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

To pack bodies or elements of the type referred to in the previous section, packaging is used that fits as far as possible to the packed object, in order to optimize the space occupied.

Well, so far known packaging is usually made up of a sheet of plastic bubbles, which protects against impacts and moisture to the object that is wrapped, having a cardboard or wood envelope outside.

This type of packaging has several drawbacks, among which the following can be mentioned:

-

Being constituted by two elements (plastic bubbles and envelope), the process of the operations of the packaging itself is more expensive and slowed down.

-

When the bubbles are used as plastic and impermeable material, a small amount of energy is absorbed and this is not properly distributed in case of impact, as it is configured by a multitude of small bubbles separated from each other.

-

In the case that the external envelope is materialized in wood, its cost is high, while if it is made of cardboard, this material deteriorates with moisture, losing its mechanical resistance and not offering its protective function.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The recommended packaging has been designed to solve the problem described above, based on a simple but effective solution, since it is economical in its manufacture, with great mechanical and moisture resistance.

More specifically, the packaging of the invention is valid for any element, being specially designed to pack large metal parts, as well as products or elements that need to be transported in large coils, such as electric cables or any other type, plates metal, paper reels, etc. "and in general for irregularly shaped pieces or packages.

For this, the packaging of the invention has the particularity

if it is constituted from a core or soul of rigid or semi-rigid material, which is complemented by both sides with two outer layers, one that will constitute the inner face of the packaging and another that will constitute the outer face, so that The inner layer will be made of paper and / or cardboard, raffia

or plastic, flexible of different weight, which may optionally be waterproof or be treated against corrosion or other treatment, while the outer layer will be made of waterproof material, such as plastic, raffia, or even a sheet of paper and / or Conveniently waterproof, flexible cardboard, being able to incorporate different surface treatments, to prevent the passage of moisture and also provide elasticity and mechanical resistance to the package as a whole,

Said core or core will be constituted based on independent rigid or semi-rigid porclOnes, being separated from each other with a greater or lesser distance to allow the flexion of the packaging and to adapt to the shape and contour of the element to be packed, flexion that occurs in greater degree in the cover that remains inside, due to its lower thickness and mechanical strength.

The packaging will be complemented with a watertight process, well achievable during the manufacturing process of the packaging itself, beading the ends of the outer layer or cover against the edges, fixing them to the soul of rigid or semi-rigid portions, while in another sealing alternative, At the exit of the packaging and during the manufacturing process, a seal will be included at each end, of self-adhesive material, fixing to the edge and / or to the outer and inner covers and upper layers.

Finally, say that the packaging is optionally complemented with plastic straps attached to the layer or cover

external, incorporated during the manufacturing process itself.

By means of the described packaging, the elements or products protected therewith, as well as the packaging itself, are preserved from moisture by the outer layer or cover, offering great resistance to breakage due to the intermediate mesh of the outer cover and the rigidity of the soul of rigid or semi-rigid portions, which also protect against impacts and absorb and distribute energy in an optimal way.

On the other hand, the flexibility of the packaging allows packing all kinds of parts and materials, since it can adapt to any shape and size of the product to be protected and / or transported, while the incorporation of the straps allows for a ratio at the time of fixing to the product, saving us the manipulation of the same.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that will then be made and in order to help a better understanding of the features of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical implementation thereof, a set of drawings is attached as an integral part of said description. where, for illustrative and non-limiting purposes, the following has been represented:

Figure 1 shows a representation corresponding to a perspective view of a package made in accordance with the object of the invention, in an unfolded or extended position.

Figure 2.- Shows a sectional view of the packaging represented in the previous figure.

Figure 3.- Shows a perspective view of a cylindrical body or element protected by the packaging of the invention, with the plastic straps that keep said tubular shaped packaging.

Figure 4 shows, finally, a sectional view of the assembly represented in the previous figure, to show the union of the ends corresponding to the strips that participate in the packaging of the invention.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

As can be seen in the aforementioned figures, the packaging of the invention is constituted from a rigid or semi-rigid core or core (1) based on independent portions that are fixed to each other at distances, to allow flexibility of the assembly, being said core or core (1) complemented with a layer or cover (2) and a layer or cover (3), the first intended to form the inner layer of the packaging and the second to form the outer layer.

The package assembly formed by the core or core (1) with the inner (2) and outer (3) covers or layers, can be sealed by sealing seals (4) applied on the edges themselves, or sealed by sealing by edging of the outer layer or cover (3).

The inner (2) and outer (3) covers are constituted by flexible sheets that can be fixed by any conventional system to the core or core (1) of the packaging, which is formed as already said by independent portions of rigid or semi-rigid material, such as wood , plastic, rigid cardboard, raffia or similar, etc., being able to incorporate surface treatments of waterproofing, anti-corrosion, etc.

The described packing structure is complemented by strapping (5) that is mounted during the manufacturing process itself on the outer layer or cover (3), strapping (5) that is made of plastic and that will constitute means of maintaining the packaging in a situation adaptable to the shape of the object to be packed, as will be discussed later.

The outer layer or cover (3}. ~ Will preferably be obtained in impermeable plastic material that prevents the passage of moisture and provides elasticity and mechanical resistance, raffia, or the like, being fixed to the surface of the core or core (1).

The waterproofing of the packaging can be carried out by flanging the ends of the cover or outer layer (3) against the edges, fixing them to the core or core (1), or placing the seal profiles (4) at each end.

From the described structure, different types of packaging can be obtained, from a tubular one, as shown in Figure 3, to obtain packages of another configuration.

If the packaging is intended to protect a cylindrical element (6), as shown in Figure 3, then the strips (5), after separating from the outer layer itself (3) of the packaging, are fixed at their ends by partial overlapping and application of staples (8) that join the

ends of said strips (5).
