Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1046579A1] The wrapper which surrounds the product (P) is formed from two pieces (1, 2), for example, of thin aluminium foil. The first piece is shaped to a generally cup-shaped configuration so as to house the product (P) substantially completely also leaving a projecting edge (1c) in the region of the mouth portion of the cup-shaped configuration. The second piece (2), which retains a substantially flat configuration, is applied and welded to the projecting edge. The rim formed as a result of the connection of the two pieces (1, 2) is then subjected to a shaping operation against the product (P), conferring on the rim a generally case-like configuration. A case-like housing body with a flat base wall which can support the product (P) is thus formed, the case-like housing body being constituted by an integral part of the wrapper. <IMAGE>
[origin: EP1046579A1] The method involves shaping a first sheet (1) into a configuration complementary to that of a product so that it houses the product entirely. A second sheet (2) is applied to the product, keeping the sheet flat at least in a respective central region surrounded by the respective peripheral region. The mutually connected homologous peripheral regions are shaped relative to the central portion of the second sheet forming a wrapper portion which is shaped like a case. Independent claims are included for a device for carrying out the method, and a food product wrapped by it, respectively.
