Definitions
- the present invention relates to a multi-product container and its manufacturing process for the preparation of a product, ingredient or component, formed from a fluid product in a liquid or gaseous state, or a solid product, the solid product being able to be in powder or not, and a fluid, which has at least two compartments that keep the products separated by a frangible or pressure breakable weld.
- Containers intended for products of various components that must be kept separate during storage are known in the state of the art and mixed only at the time of use; Examples of these products are some hospital medical products and adhesive products.
- Some of these packages consist of two sheets of flexible material, each sheet formed by an inner layer and an outer layer, welded through the inner layer between them by its perimeter so that they form a bag or envelope, inside which They define two or more compartments for the different products based on making frangible welding lines between the two sheets. Welds that separate some compartments from others can be broken, at the user's discretion, to mix the components and use the resulting mixture.
- a container of the above type applied to egg powder is described in European patent application EP1700789A1.
- the state-of-the-art containers may have ink prints to include different information, such as identifying the product's commercial name, the characteristics of the products contained and their compositions, slogan, instructions on their use, etc., among other possibilities.
- the printing of such information must be durable, that is, it is not affected by the conditions outside the container, but on the other hand it cannot adversely affect the union between the different layers of the laminate of the container, so it must be performed inside the package to avoid possible contamination of the stored product caused by the transfer of the inks or varnishes to the internal part of the container.
- the manipulation of the barrier layer is delicate because the aluminum oxide particles can move if the layer is bent or erroneously manipulated, even during the complexing of the film by adhesion or coextrusion, or rewinding and cutting process, which it would cause that at that particular point there is no barrier coating on the product ,
- the adhesion in the subsequent catalysing process it must remain at a controlled temperature for a specific period so that the adhesions between the layers of the material are correct and there is no subsequent delamination of them.
- the fact that the adhesion is not perfect causes that at the time of the subsequent welding process, and by providing heat to the material, mainly in those non-frangible welds where the material is peelable, the high temperature causes a delamination between the layers, which affects the behavior of the whole assembly, and water or moisture vapor leaks can occur in these places where welding is carried out at a higher temperature.
- the delamination is more difficult to occur in the peelable or frangible zone because the temperature exerted in said zone is not as high as in the other welds, so it is important to have absolute temperature control, since a delamination in Peelable welding is the most damaging thing that can occur since it can cause an early mixing of the components before the pressure for breaking said weld is exerted.
- the material must be kept at temperatures between 10 and 30 degrees Celsius to maintain its unalterable characteristics and it is advised to be introduced into the conditioning room at least 24 hours before proceeding to the packaging so that it adapts to the correct temperature and be able to proceed with packaging with guarantees.
- the metallic particles of the barrier layer move with respect to their original situation, exposes micropores existing in the polyester that can affect the contents of the container, mainly to the stored powder product, since it causes an increase in the permeability of the material measured in cubic centimeters / m2 x day and can also cause an increase in the parameters of water vapor permeability measured in gr / m2 day.
- the product stored in the container is very hydroscopic, it will absorb the moisture from the outside or from the adjacent compartment that stores a liquid product, through the mentioned micropores, and may damage the powder product contained inside the package. This is the case of those powder products with high percentages in sugars, sucrose, etc. The above can occur especially in cases of loss of material properties, caused by poor adhesion or delamination caused by the sealing process, which is mainly caused by poor storage or poor complexing since the manufacturing process of the product, perfectly controls the sealing and its correct temperatures.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a container with at least two compartments, one with a first product or ingredient in a liquid or gaseous state, that is, a first fluid, and another with at least a second product or ingredient in a liquid or gaseous state, that is, a fluid, or a solid product or ingredient, the latter in powder or not, maintaining high levels of safety and protection of the contents of the container, further improving both conservation and transport, avoiding possible errors in the manipulation by the consumer, such as bumps in the shopping cart, bad storage, etc.
- the present invention relates to a multi-product package composed of at least a second fluid or solid product, the latter in powder or not, and a first product or first fluid, intended to contain said first and second separate products until the moment of its use, said container comprising at least two compartments that are separated from each other by a pressure breakable weld, a predetermined amount of a second solid or fluid product being housed in a compartment, and being housed in another compartment a predetermined quantity of the first product or first fluid, formed by a sheet of flexible material with a laminate characterized in that it comprises at least: a first inner layer of peelable polyethylene, with its inner surface in contact with the solid and liquid products, a second layer of barrier polyester with a coating, with its inner surface attached to the surface outer layer of the first layer, and a third outer layer of the container of a polymeric material, preferably polyester (PET) of at least 12 thicknesses, with an impression between its inner surface and the outer surface of the second layer to which said third layer is attached.
- PET polyester
- Said printing is preferably made on the inner surface of the third layer, although it is also possible to make it on the outer surface of the second layer.
- the bonding between the different layers is preferably carried out by means of an adhesive, although it is also possible to perform said bonding by coextrusion, thermoforming or other equivalent means. Also, the union between the different layers does not have to be done with the same means.
- barrier polyester layer with an aluminum layer of preferably at least 7 microns.
- Said layer can also be replaced by a high density polyethylene (PE / EVOH).
- polyester PET must be subjected to a corona treatment that allows printing on the outside instead of on the inside, as described so far, since without the treatment crowns the inks they cannot anchor in the material what causes a defective impression and a transfer of the same and contact with the internal part of the container at the time of rewinding.
- the mixed multiproduct formed by the first and second products is perfectly homogenized and without lumps.
- Another appreciable advantage of use is that it is very clean, since the ingredients for the multiproduct can be mixed between them in a few seconds inside the container before opening it, aseptically, without the need for utensils or auxiliary containers, ensuring its safety for health, optimizing the preparation time of the mixture.
- the present invention also makes it possible to ensure conservation and non-contamination even after the mixture has been prepared for a specific period of time, preferably refrigerated, which varies depending on the products contained in the package, since there is no contact with the outside air in any moment.
- the packaging of the fluid also allows water control; This is important, since water is not the same in all places.
- the multiproduct does not mix the same, and the final characteristics of the multiproduct are not the same.
- the quantities to be dosed must be exact, being very important for the good result of the final mixture and its subsequent use. Being the water, or fluid, controlled, ensures the non-contamination of the final product.
- Said bag is formed, as mentioned, by at least one sheet of flexible material, which facilitates the rupture by pressure of the frangible weld by pressing the fluid compartment, in a liquid or gaseous state, so that the fluid presses the existing welding between the two compartments, causing their breakage.
- said sheet is heat welded along at least a part of the perimeter of the bag.
- Said frangible welding preferably with a uniform breaking pressure along it, derived from a total temperature and pressure control during the manufacture of said welding along it, allows the breakage thereof to be total, without leaving areas not open and thus facilitating the mixing, since a partial breakage of said welding would hinder the mixing process and therefore the final result of the product.
- the frangible welding will therefore have a greater or lesser resistance to pressure breakage depending on the products it contains and the size of the bag that is determined according to the intended use, as well as depending on the target audience of the container, and that the necessary pressure will be different if the end user is a child or an adult.
- the pressure resistance of the weld that separates the different compartments is always obviously lower than the perimeter welds.
- the barrier polyester layer serves to ensure that the product is in perfect condition, avoiding any contamination, until the moment of consumption.
- the Barrier polyester layer can also be used to replace the air inside the container with a modified atmosphere to prevent oxidation of the product and increase its life, also preventing the entry of oxygen and water vapor from the outside into the envelope
- At least a part of said sheet is transparent; This way you can see if the components have been mixed before opening the package. Obviously the sheet can be completely opaque.
- the package may include other compartments in addition to the two mentioned to incorporate additional ingredients into the multiproduct, although said additional ingredients may also be contained in the same compartment as the first and second product.
- the fluid must be in contact with at least one of the sides of the frangible welds to enable the breakage of the welds when transmitting the pressure exerted on the fluid compartment on one of The sides of the welds.
- the package may have a scale represented on its outer surface; The scale allows you to see the amount of multiproduct left in the package after mixing and using a part of the content.
- the manufacturing process of the sheet that forms the package object of the present invention comprises the following steps:
- the production process of temperature control, as well as pressure and time, and packaging, is part of the industrialization part and is one of the basic and most important factors for the good use and operation of the product.
- the sheet is given the shape of the final container, determining the compartments and applying the heat welding that separates said compartments as well as the perimeter welds except for one of the sides, usually the upper one, which is used for the introduction of the products or ingredients , once the products or ingredients have been introduced into each compartment, proceed to close by welding on said side.
- the introduction of the products is carried out so that the oxygen content of the compartments once sealed is reduced, around 3%, preferably between 2% and 3%, so that the oxidation of the products contained in the package.
- the pressure and / or temperature used for perimeter welding is greater than that used for frangible welding.
- Another important aspect is the control of the introduction of the components to be dosed in the envelope and its subsequent control of the upper weld, controlling the welding processes to avoid that any component of one compartment can pass to the other compartment before proceeding to the final closure of the envelope by upper horizontal welding.
- the welds can have different forms, depending on the application of the package, so that a weld can be configured by determining an exit channel that, after opening the envelope, generates a single exit channel of the product allowing its consumption in a simple and clean way , either to be consumed directly from the container or to dose it in a container.
- the package object of the present invention may incorporate additional elements that facilitate the use of the contents thereof once the frangible welding has disappeared and the at least two components or products have been mixed.
- this package allows to control the resistance to the pressure of the weld located between the compartments that contain the products to be mixed, so that as mentioned above, it is possible to regulate the resistance to the pressure of said welding according to the target audience of the container as well as the handling conditions thereof.
- Figure 1 is a schematic plan view showing a package according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is a sectional view of the package of Figure 1
- Figure 3 is a sectional view of the container with the frangible or breakable weld that joins both open compartments.
- Figure 4 is a sectional view of the sheet formed by the three joined layers that make up the package.
- Figure 5 is a plan view of an alternative package according to the invention.
- the package (1) for preparing a multiproduct consists of a certain amount of an ingredient, ingredient or powder product (2) and a certain amount of a liquid (3), preferably water, suitable to be mixed with the quantity of powder product (2) to obtain the liquid multiproduct with an adequate proportion of the different components.
- the package of the present example is a rectangular bag (1), which can obviously be manufactured in different shapes, which is divided into two compartments (1 1, 12) by means of a heat weld (13) that is peelable, frangible or breakable, that is, It can be opened by exerting a pressure on it from the compartment containing the liquid product (3).
- Figure 5 shows as an alternative a package comprising three compartments separated from each other by frangible welds (13) and in which the liquid product (3) has been placed in the lower compartment and two solid products (2), equal or different, in the central and upper compartments of the container.
- frangible welds (13) To the exerting a uniform pressure on the compartment with the liquid product, said pressure is transferred to the lower frangible weld (13), allowing its breakage and therefore the mixing of the liquid product (3) with the solid product (2). Subsequently, it would be necessary to exert pressure on the product obtained from the mixture to break the upper frangible weld (13) and mix the three components or products of the package.
- the package can have more than two or three compartments.
- compartments (1 1, 12) are intended to contain respectively the amounts of powdered product (2) and of a liquid, water (3), so that they are kept separate until the time of preparation of the multiproduct.
- all compartments may contain liquid or gaseous products, that is, fluids, and in the case of a solid product or products they may be powdered or not.
- said powder product can be any solid product, this being edible or not, and can be formed by different ingredients or by-products, which in contact with a liquid react in a certain way.
- the possibilities of products to be housed in the different compartments are: solid / liquid or liquid / liquid.
- the container (1) is manufactured with a sheet (15, 16) formed by at least one plastic material composed of several different layers, which are welded together around the entire perimeter of the container (14), or by a sheet ( 15, 16) which is folded and welded on three sides. It is also possible to use two sheets that are welded together for their entire perimeter.
- these perimeter welds (14) of the container (1) which are also made by heat welding and that prevents contamination of the product, have a much higher resistance than that of the weld (13) that separates the compartments, since they must not be opened at the same time but must be kept sealed to insulate the contents of the container from the outside.
- Figure 2 shows a section of the container (1) of Figure 1 with its compartments (1 1, 12) and their respective content of powdered product (2) and water (3). It should be noted that in Figure 2 the thickness of the different layers that make up the sheet of the container has been melted and exaggerated, to facilitate the understanding of the drawing; on the right side of the figure you can see the transparent parts (17) that allow viewing the contents of the two compartments (1 1, 12) before and after mixing.
- the container After lightly shaking the container to homogenize the contents, in a totally clean way and without using any container or utensil, it can be opened and the multiproduct obtained can be poured into a suitable container or elements that allow consumption directly from the same container, such as a rod or valve
- the container can optionally incorporate any means to facilitate its opening, to pour the product, to close the container again if the entire contents are not used, etc.
- the present package allows mixing the powder-fluid or fluid-fluid in a simple way, by squeezing the part of the envelope containing the fluid component or product, which in turn allows easy and vigorous agitation in after the breakage of frangible or peelable welding until completely diluted. Once diluted, it allows the container to be opened at the previously determined end.
- Said opening can preferably be made by a tear notch (50) for consumption, which can be drunk or cooked.
- Said tearing notch is positioned in the package so that it allows easy opening in the welded area. completely.
- Said tearing notch (50) is of special application in containers containing polyester or aluminum, since without this tearing zone, opening would not be possible without additional accessories, such as scissors.
- a scale can be represented on the outer surface of the package to allow evaluation of the amount of multiproduct left in it after using a part.
- ingredients for the multi-product to be prepared can be included in the same compartment or in a separate one.
- Figure 4 shows a section of the sheet (15, 16) that forms the package of Figure 1 in which the 3 layers that form it are observed.
- the thickness of the different layers (41, 42, 43) that make up the sheet (15, 16) will depend on the external conditions to which the container is going to be subjected, such as handling and transport conditions, to resist them without deteriorating and therefore without affecting the contents of the package, as well as the ingredients included in the package.
- a material suitable for the realization of the sheet (15, 16) that forms it is a laminate of transparent plastic material, composed of a first inner layer (41) of polyethylene (PE) peelable and weldable, preferably Surlyn polyethylene with a weight of 65 g / m2, in contact with its inner surface with the ingredients; a second intermediate layer (42) of polyester (PET) between 2 and 20 ⁇ thick, preferably 12 ⁇ , with barrier properties, preferably polyester with an aluminum oxide sweep (44), on its inner surface in contact with the outer surface of the first layer (41), to protect the inside of the container from moisture; and a third outer layer (43) of a polyester (PET) thickness between 2 and 20 ⁇ , preferably 12 ⁇ , with an ink print (45) on its inner surface that is adhered to the outer surface of the second layer (42).
- PE polyethylene
- PET polyethylene
- barrier properties preferably polyester with an aluminum oxide sweep
- the different layers are joined together by means of adhesives that allow adhesion of at least 3 N / 15 mm, preferably 3.5 N / 15 mm, and with a weight of at least 2.5 gr / m2, preferably 3 gr / m2, each one, so that the total weight of the package in the example, to which the mass of ink should be added, is 105 gr / m2.
- the transverse elongation of the sheet that forms the container is at least 50%, preferably 70%, and the longitudinal elongation is at least 80%, preferably 100%, allowing these characteristics to avoid problems in handling, storage and transportation
- the welding resistance is at least 4 N / 15 mm, preferably 5
