Abstract

L'invention concerne un carton de type enveloppant présentant une paire de panneaux de base superposés (12, 20). Un des panneaux de base (12) porteur d'un onglet de fermeture (38) repose sur une languette (42) faisant saillie à partir du bord d'extrémité de l'autre panneau de base (20). La languette saillante (42) est formée d'une ouverture complémentaire (40) dans laquelle vient s'insérer l'onglet de fermeture (38) afin de fixer les panneaux superposés (12, 20) ensemble. Sur un côté de l'onglet de fermeture (38), un panneau de base (12) présente un onglet articulé (50, 52) faisant saillie depuis le bord d'extrémité dudit panneau. Chaque onglet articulé est sous-jacent au bord d'extrémité (44,46) de l'autre panneau de base (20), sur chaque côté de la languette saillante (42). Cet agencement 'd'imbrication' présente moins d'un bord superposé à l'extérieur que dans le cas d'un chevauchement complet simple, ce qui a pour effet de plaquer les panneaux de base qui sont biaisés ou écartés afin d'être détachés et/ou désimbriqués des moyens de fermeture.
