Para uma melhor compreensão do presente modelo de utilidade descreve-se a seguir em pormenor uma forma de realização do mesmo, dada a título de exemplo sem carácter li mitativo e ilustrada nos desenhos anexos, cujas figuras represen tam: A fig. 1, uma vista em planta da placa de cartão recor tada, a partir da qual pode ser obtida a embalagem, com represen tação das linhas de dobragem; A fig. 2, uma vista, em perspectiva de uma secção da em balagem, na qual se mostra um canto da embalagem já armado e outro canto ainda não armado; A fig. 3, uma vista em perspectiva que mostra duas embalagens já armadas, sobrepostas; e A fig. 4, duas vistas em perspectiva que mostram a peça de plástico usada como auxiliar de armação da embalagem, vistas de dois ângulos diferentes.For a better understanding of the present utility model, an embodiment thereof, given by way of non-limiting example and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. 1 shows a plan view of the cut-out carton from which the carton can be obtained, with representation of the fold lines; FIG. Figure 2 is a perspective view of a section of the carton showing one corner of the carton already assembled and another corner not yet assembled; FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing two already assembled, overlapping packages; and Fig. 4, two perspective views showing the plastic part used as the packaging aid of the package, seen from two different angles.

Com referência ãs figuras, na fig. 1 a placa de cartão (1), a partir da qual se obtém a embalagem, tem uma configuração complexa mas na generalidade rectangular. Em pormenor, a sua configuração é a seguinte: centralmente há uma zona rectangular, que irá constituir a base da embalagem, a cujos lados se unem, através de linhas de dobragem intermédias (1'), quatro abas (A) e (B) iguais e simétricas duas a duas. Tan to as abas (A) como as abas (B) têm a forma geral rectangular, com recortes, respectivamente (a) e (b), que definem nas extremi dades das abas (A) e (B) partes com maior altura. Nestas partes de maior altura das abas (A) previram-se, em cada uma, três linhas de dobragem de armação (5'), ficando as linhas interiores de cada grupo de três ligeiramente desalinhadas, para dentro, em relação ao lado (11) respectivo da base (2). As três linhas de dobragem (51) definem três pequenos painéis (I), (II) e (III).With reference to the figures, in Fig. 1 the carton 1 from which the carton is obtained has a complex but generally rectangular configuration. In detail, the configuration thereof is as follows: centrally there is a rectangular zone, which will form the base of the package, on the sides of which four wings (A) and (B) are joined by intermediate fold lines (1 '), equal and symmetrical two by two. Both the flaps A and the flaps B have the general rectangular shape, with cutouts respectively a and b defining at the ends of the flaps A and B portions of greater height. In these uppermost parts of the flaps (A) three frame folding lines (5 ') were provided, the inner lines of each group of three being slightly offset in relation to the side (11). ) of the base (2). The three fold lines 51 define three small panels (I), (II) and (III).

Nas abas A e B foram previstas linhas de 3In lines A and B lines of 3

dobragem (2' e 3') que definem os pequenos painéis I', II', III' e IV, no primeiro dos quais (I1) se faz um recorte auxiliar (6), constituindo os painéis II' e IV-abas auxiliares de fecho.(2 'and 3') defining the small panels I ', II', III 'and IV, in the first of which (I1) an auxiliary cut-out (6) is made, the panels II' and IV-auxiliary flaps of closure.

As linhas de dobragem (2'), (3') e (51), bem como os cortes (6) permitem a armação dos cantos da embalagem. A fig. 2 ilustra a maneira como se arma a embalagem: supondo a placa (1) horizontal, em primeiro lugar dobram-se as abas (A) de modo a ficarem verticais, ou seja, perpendiculares ã base (2); em cada uma das extremidades das abas (A), e com o auxílio das linhas de dobragem (5'), forma-se uma cantoneira dobrando os três vincos no sentido indicado.The folding lines 2 ', 3' and 51, as well as the cut-outs 6 allow the frames of the carton to be assembled. FIG. 2 illustrates the manner in which the carton is assembled: supposing the horizontal plate 1, the flaps A are first folded in such a way as to be vertical, ie perpendicular to the base 2; at each end of the flaps (A), and with the aid of the fold lines (5 '), a bracket is formed by folding the three creases in the indicated direction.

Para ajustar esta cantoneira, dobram-se depois as abas (b), por forma a ficarem perpendiculares à base (2), ficando o painel (I') da aba (B) situado, no molde inicial, adjacente aos painéis das abas (A), encostado ao painel (I) da aba (A), formando os três painéis (I,II,III) um prisma triangular com o painel III encostado ao painel III' da aba (A).To adjust this angle, the flaps (b) are then folded so as to be perpendicular to the base (2), the flap panel ('') being located in the initial mold adjacent the flap panels ( A, abutting the panel (I) of the flap (A), the three panels (I, II, III) forming a triangular prism with the panel III abutting against the panel III 'of the flap (A).

Nestas condições, as abas auxiliares (II' e IV) podem dispor-se segundo a hipotenusa do triângulo rectângulo (painel II) cujos catetos são os painéis I e III. A consolidação de cada um dos cantos assim formado é obtida por meio de peças de plástico (3), cuja configuração pode ver-se na fig. 4.Under these conditions, the auxiliary flaps (II 'and IV) can be arranged according to the hypotenuse of the right triangle (panel II) whose flanges are panels I and III. The consolidation of each of the corners so formed is obtained by means of plastic parts 3, the configuration of which can be seen in fig. 4.

Cada uma das peças (3) tem a forma geral de um prisma triangular rectângulo, com as arestas dos diedros arredondados. É uma peça oca com uma das bases aberta e a outra com dois recortes triangulares (4); as faces perpendiculares são prolongadas para cima por apêndices respectivos (7). A secção transversal interior da peça prismática é um triângulo rectângulo, com os vértices arredondados, com a forma e dimensões que permitem o encaixe da peça (3) no prisma do canto respectivo for mado pelas abas referidas.Each of the pieces (3) has the general shape of a rectangular triangular prism, with the edges of the rounded dihedral. It is a hollow piece with one of the bases open and the other with two triangular cutouts (4); the perpendicular faces are extended upwards by respective appendages (7). The inner cross-section of the prismatic part is a right triangle with rounded corners having the shape and dimensions which allow engagement of the part (3) in the prism of the respective corner formed by said flaps.

Os apêndices (7) destinam-se a manter a posição de embalagens empilhadas umas nas outras, impedindo deslocamentos laterais, como se vê claramente na fig. 3. 4The appendices 7 are intended to maintain the position of packages stacked against each other, preventing side dislocations, as is clearly seen in Fig. 3.4
