Definitions
- This invention relates to a method for package assembly, and more particularly to a method for briefly stabilizing containers on a flat base member by temporarily bonding the containers to the base member with a hot melt adhesive that releases the container from its bond to the base member soon after the handling and packaging process is complete, and a package which consists of a rigid base member, containers temporarily bonded with hot melt adhesive to the base member, and a plastic shrink film encapsulating the base member and containers.
- Prior art packaging methods and packages do not address the special need of stabilizing containers on a flat base member during the brief period of package assembly by forming a temporary adhesive bond between the containers and the base member.
- Placement of a group or pack pattern of containers on a flat base member poses a stability problem as the base member with containers is transported through a packaging or handling process. This is particularly a problem for intermittent motion packaging or handling systems, but is also a concern for continuous motion equipment. Even the machine vibration on a continuous motion machine can result in movement of containers on the flat base member, which can negatively effect the completed package, or the effectiveness of the packaging or handling system.
- the present invention provides a temporary packaging method and package which briefly bonds a group or pack pattern of containers to a flat base member to stabilize the containers during the handling or packaging process, and these containers release from this adhesive bond soon after the handling or packaging process is completed by plastic shrink film encapsulation of the base member and containers.
- the method comprises the steps of providing a base member, providing adhesive to the base member, placement of containers to base member resulting in a temporary bond, advancing the base member with bonded containers through the handling or packaging process, encapsulation of base member and containers with plastic shrink film, and release of containers from bond to base member within minutes after the encapsulation by shrink film, with adhesive remaining bonded to base member.
- the method of the present invention eliminates the instability of the containers on a flat base member during the handling or packaging process, thereby permitting a wide range of movement and handling to occur.
- the present invention permits the group of containers which are bonded to the flat base member to be aggressively handled by inclines, declines, side transfers, abrupt starting and stopping, equipment vibration, stacking, etc.
- the temporary bond effectively locks the containers in place during the handling or packaging process.
- This temporary bond is defined herein as a bond that releases by itself over time. It is required to hold the containers in place during the handling or packaging process, and within minutes after the base member and containers are encapsulated by film, the container releases from the base member with the adhesive residue remaining on the base member.
- This novel packaging method dramatically simplifies the packaging and handling process for packaging containers on a flat base member.
- this invention offers an effective alternative to the traditional corrugated box or tray with four side walls.
- This invention utilizes less packaging materials than boxes or trays, is more cost efficient, and because there is no need to form boxes or trays, which generate both corrugated dust and spores, it is more sanitary.
- This invention also offers greater efficiency than current methods of packaging containers on flat base members because of the increased stability of containers on the base member during package assembly.

- Figure 6 is a perspective view of a base member with containers adhered thereto and having a divider insert
- Figure 7 is a perspective view of a grouping of containers of the present invention temporarily bonded to a base member and traveling up an incline prior to encapsulation by shrink film, and
- Figure 8 is a perspective view of a grouping of containers of the present invention showing a base member with containers encapsulated with shrink film.
- the present invention provides a temporary packaging method and package which briefly bonds a group or pack pattern of containers to a flat base member during the handling or packaging process and releases this bond once the handling or packaging process is completed.
- the method comprises the steps of providing a base member, providing adhesive to the base member, placement of containers on base member to form a temporary bond, optionally adding a top cover member or divider, advancing the base member with bonded containers through the handling or packaging process so that further processing of the containers may optionally be effected, encapsulation of the base member with bonded containers by a plastic shrink film, followed by release of containers from base member soon after encapsulation of the shrink film, with adhesive remaining bonded to base member.
- the method of the present invention provides a means for briefly bonding containers to a base member so containers can be effectively controlled during the handling or packaging process.
- the optional top cover member adds extra strength and protection for certain container types such as those having foil or paper lids or a bottle with a sport cap, the optional divider insert adds extra protection for certain container types such as glass bottles or jars to avoid glass on glass contact.
- an assembly of containers of the present invention is shown generally at 10 and comprises a flat base member 12, onto which containers are adhered to temporary bonding adhesive strips 13.
- Base member 12 may be made of any suitable material such as chip board, paper board or corrugated board depending on the dimensions of the package and intermediate steps which accompany the packaging method. Chip board, however, possesses the minimum desired degree of stiffness according to the present invention.
- strips of adhesive 20 are placed on the upper surface 21 of base member 12, as shown in Figure 2, adhesive strips 20 being disposed parallel to ends 22 and 24 of base member 12.
- the adhesive is a hot melt adhesive which may be applied by applicators situated above a conveyor (not shown) along which base member 12 is traveling during the packaging process. Both the application temperature and depth of adhesive strip should be consistent with the strips of adhesive 20 on base member 12.
- the timing between application of adhesive strips and placement of containers should be substantially consistent, generally 2 to 3 seconds between placement of adhesive strips on base member and placement of containers on base member.
- the hot melt adhesive In order to form a temporary bond, the hot melt adhesive should have an open time of approximately 30 to 45 seconds.
- the open time is defined as the period between application of adhesive on base member and solidification of adhesive.
- the elasticity of the semi-solid hot melt adhesive permits aggressive movement of the base member without movement of the containers from their position on the base member.
- An adhesive with this characteristic is commercially available from H.B.
- the specific bonding strength between base member and container is controlled by varying the application temperature of the adhesive, and the depth of the adhesive strips (generally 1/16 to 1/8" depth). A higher application temperature and deeper adhesive strips will increase the bonding, and a lower temperature and thinner adhesive strips will decrease bonding.
- the hot melt adhesive is preferably applied within a temperature range of 270 degrees F to 340 degrees F.
- Adhesive strips 20 hold containers 14 firmly in place on base member 12, as shown in Figure 1. The adhesive is such that it will adhere to containers 14 to the extent that containers 14 are secured to base member 12 firmly enough to resist movement relative thereto and provide stability during normal handling.
- FIG 3 shows an alternative embodiment of the invention, in which adhesive strips 20a are intermittent, so that the adhesive strips extend only beneath the individual containers and not between them.
- Containers 14 may be positioned on base member 12 by equipment which feeds containers 14 in a direction perpendicularly to the direction in which base member is traveling, and then positions a pre-arranged set of containers 14 on base member 12 within a consistently short period of time (generally 2 to 3 seconds).
- Containers 14 preferably touch the adhesive strip at two contact points, or at four contact points, as shown in Figure 2 at 26, 28, 30 and 32, in which strips of adhesive, after a container has been affixed thereto and removed, are shown for purposes of illustration.
- FIG 4 is a diagram of the apparatus for assembling the package assembly and temporary packaging method of the present invention.
- Containers enter this apparatus on a single lane conveyor (A) and are channeled through lane dividers (B) which separate the containers into the appropriate number of lanes.
- a pack pattern of containers is released to collation area (C ).
- a base member is picked from the base member magazine (D) and placed on the conveyor bed (F).
- the adhesive unit (E) and adhesive applicator (G) place strips of the temporary bonding hot melt adhesive on the base member.
- the adhesive unit and applicator apply a consistent strip or strips of adhesive to the base member (generally 1/16" to 1/8" depth) at a consistent application temperature (generally 270 degrees F to 340 degrees F).
- the pack pattern of containers (C ) are transferred by the apparatus for placement on the base member with temporary bonding adhesive.
- the package assembly is moved by a conveyor through a series of optional applications such as placement of cover member or divider insert (J), conveying on inclines, declines or angled turns (K), abrupt stopping and starting (L), and transfer into the apparatus for encapsulating the base member and containers with plastic shrink film (M), and ending with the final package with shrink wrap encapsulation (N).
- cover member or divider insert J
- L abrupt stopping and starting
- M plastic shrink film
- N final package with shrink wrap encapsulation
- a flat cover member 40 may optionally be applied over the containers.
- the cover member provides added strength to package and offers top layer protection for certain container types such as containers with paper or foil lids, or bottles with sport caps.
- the package assembly is encapsulated with shrink film such as commercially available from Armin Plastics as Product No. 2304B.
- shrink film such as commercially available from Armin Plastics as Product No. 2304B.
- the tight film encapsulation thus provided keeps the top pad tightly pressed to the tops of the containers which increases package strength and protects the top layer of containers.
- An alternative embodiment of a temporary package assembly according to the present invention is shown at Figure 6. A divider has been added to avoid container to container contact within package assembly.
- the divider (usually corrugated or chipboard) is placed between containers after containers are bonded to base member and prior to shrink film encapsulation.
- FIG. 7 a schematic drawing of the temporary package assembly according to the present invention is shown.
- Use of the flat base member and temporary adhesive bonding of containers to base member locks product containers in place and prevents individual movement of the containers until after the package assembly has been shrink wrapped. Within minutes the adhesive releases the containers from the bond to base member with the adhesive remaining on the base member.
- This temporary package assembly uses less packaging material than either a box or tray with four side walls, is more cost efficient, and because there is no need to form boxes or trays, which generate both corrugated dust and spores, it is more sanitary.
- the present invention provides a method for temporarily bonding containers to a flat base member to restrict movement of containers on the base member during the handling or packaging process. This method of bonding the containers permits a wide range of movement and handling to occur without concern for container stability on the flat base member.
- the present invention permits the group or pack pattern of containers to be aggressively handled by inclines as shown in Figure 7, declines, side transfers, abrupt starting and stopping, equipment vibrations, stacking, etc., without individual movement of container, and within minutes after the group or pack pattern of containers and base member has been encapsulated with plastic shrink film, the adhesive bond releases the containers from the base member with the adhesive residue remaining on the base member.
- the completed package assembly of the present invention is shown in Figure 8.
- the temporary bond effectively eliminates individual movement of the container on a flat base member during package assembly or handling, thereby greatly enhancing stability of the package assembly, which results in greater packaging efficiency.
- This improved stability increases the range of containers which are candidates for packaging by means of a flat base member, and it reduces the need for the packaging or handling equipment to maintain control of container movement after the container has been placed on the flat base member, thereby reducing equipment costs.
- the present invention offers greater heat transfer due to the flat base member.
- the present invention permits greater airflow than a box or tray, thereby improving heat transfer.
