Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verpackung aus Karton od.dgl. für mehrere in wenigstens einer Reihe hintereinander angeordnete flaschenartige Behälter, mit einem aus einem flachliegenden Kartonzuschnitt gefalteten, flachen Unterteil, in welchem die Behälter stehen, die von einem Oberteil überspannt sind, welches ebenfalls aus einem flachliegenden Kartonzuschnitt hergestellt ist.The invention relates to a packaging made of cardboard or the like. for several bottle-like containers arranged one behind the other in at least one row, with a flat lower part folded from a flat cardboard blank, in which are the containers which are spanned by an upper part, which is also made from a flat cardboard blank.

Es sind in der Praxis zahlreiche Verpackungen dieser Art bekannt, die zum Teil die Behälter als Hülse eng umschließen und dabei den Behältern einen festen Halt gewähren. Zum Entnehmen der Behälter müssen diese Verpackungen jedoch zerstört werden, was meist sehr aufwendig und zeitraubend ist.Numerous packaging of this type are known in practice, some of which tightly enclose the container as a sleeve and thereby give the containers a firm hold. To remove the container, however, this packaging must be destroyed, which is usually very complex and time-consuming.

Eine andere Art bekannter Verpackungen stellen die oben offenen Träger dar, in welche die Behälter von oben eingestellt werden und aus denen sie leicht entnommen werden können. Dabei ist der erzielte Halt jedoch mehr als bescheiden.Another type of known packaging is the open top carrier into which the containers are placed from above and from which they can be easily removed. However, the hold achieved is more than modest.

Aus der GB-A-2 096 972 ist darüber hinaus eine Verpackung der genannten Art bekannt, wobei das Oberteil hakenförmige Ansätze aufweist, welche zum Verbinden der beiden Teile zwischen Teilwände der Längsseitenwände eingeschoben sind.From GB-A-2 096 972 a packaging of the type mentioned is also known, the upper part being hook-shaped Has approaches which are inserted to connect the two parts between part walls of the longitudinal side walls.

Derartige Verriegelungen sind - wenn sie halten sollen - schwierig einzusetzen und herauszuziehen. Darüber hinaus ist ihre Herstellung sehr materialintensiv, da diese Haken außerhalb des eigentlich notwendigen Zuschnittes seitlich angeformt werden müssen.Such locks are - if they should hold - difficult to use and pull out. In addition, their production is very material-intensive, since these hooks have to be molded on the side outside of the cut that is actually necessary.

Aus der US-A-2 777 630 ist darüber hinaus ein Verriegelungselement mit einem kreisbogenförmigen Lappen bekannt, der zur Verriegelung in einen horizontal verlaufenden Einschnitt einsteckbar ist. Dabei kann das Einstecken jedoch nur erfolgen, wenn die den Lappen tragende Kappe nach dem Einstecken nach oben geschoben werden kann. Damit hat das Oberteil jedoch gegenüber dem Unterteil soviel Spiel, daß ein guter Halt von eingestellten Flaschen nicht erzielbar ist.From US-A-2 777 630 a locking element with an arc-shaped tab is also known, which can be inserted for locking in a horizontally extending incision. However, the insertion can only take place if the cap carrying the rag can be pushed upwards after the insertion. So that the upper part has so much play compared to the lower part that a good hold of inserted bottles cannot be achieved.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Verpackung der genannten Art so auszugestalten, daß die Behälter zwar einen sehr guten Halt erfahren, trotzdem aber leicht zu entnehmen sind.The invention has for its object to design a packaging of the type mentioned so that the containers experience a very good hold, but are still easy to remove.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß aus dem Innern des Oberteils ausgestanzte bogen- bzw. wellenförmige Abschnitte vorgesehen sind, die in Ausstanzungen des Unterteils eingreifen, wobei sich das Oberteil im Unterteil verriegelt, und wobei die in den Seitenwänden des Unterteils vorgesehenen und zum Eingreifen der am freien Ende des Oberteils angeordneten, bogenförmigen Ansätze bestimmten Einschnitte T-förmig ausgebildet sind.This object is achieved in that arc-shaped or wave-shaped sections punched out of the interior of the upper part are provided, which engage in punched-out portions of the lower part, the upper part locking in the lower part, and the provided in the side walls of the lower part and for engagement of the arcuate lugs arranged at the free end of the upper part are formed T-shaped.

Damit ist eine ausreichend stabile Verpackung geschaffen, die insbesondere für den Transport vom Hersteller zum Verkäufer den eingestellten Behältern einen sehr guten Schutz bietet; die aber durch einen einzigen Handgriff geöffnet werden kann und dann ein sehr wirkungsvolles Verkaufstray darstellt, das die Behälter im Verkaufsregal noch sicher abstützt, ohne ihre Entnehmbarkeit nachteilig zu beeinflussen.This creates a sufficiently stable packaging that offers very good protection for the containers set, particularly for transport from manufacturer to seller; but with a single movement can be opened and then represents a very effective sales tray that still securely supports the containers on the sales shelf without adversely affecting their removability.

Durch die T-förmigen Einschnitte in den Seitenwänden des Unterteils ist dabei gewährleistet, daß die bogenförmigen Ansätze des Oberteils leicht eingesteckt werden können, was zu einer sehr wirksamen Arretierung der aus dem Innern ausgestanzten bogen- bzw. wellenförmigen Abschnitte in den entsprechenden Ausstanzungen des Unterteils führt.The T-shaped incisions in the side walls of the lower part ensure that the arcuate lugs of the upper part can be easily inserted, which leads to a very effective locking of the arcuate or wavy sections punched out from the inside in the corresponding punched-out portions of the lower part .

Sehr vorteilhaft ist es auch, wenn erfindungsgemäß das Unterteil einen Bodenwand-Abschnitt aufweist, an dem über eine Faltlinie eine Seitenwand angelenkt ist, die ihrerseits gelenkig mit einer Oberwand verbunden ist, die über eine Faltlinie eine weitere Seitenwand trägt, und wenn an den freien Stirnkanten dieser Wände unterschiedlich große Klappen angelenkt sind, welche die Stirnwände des Unterteils bilden, und wenn an der Seitenwand ein weiterer Bodenwand-Abschnitt angelenkt ist, welcher im aufgerichteten Zustand des Unterteils mit dem ersten Bodewand-Abschnitt verklebt oder versiegelt ist.It is also very advantageous if, according to the invention, the lower part has a bottom wall section, on which a side wall is articulated via a fold line, which in turn is articulated to an upper wall, which carries a further side wall via a fold line, and if at the free end edges flaps of different sizes are hinged, which form the end walls of the lower part, and if a further bottom wall section is hinged to the side wall, which is glued or sealed to the first bottom wall section when the lower part is erected.

Damit wird ein insich sehr stabiles Unterteil geschaffen, das auch nach dem Abnehmen des Oberteils seine Eigensteifigkeit bewahrt und den Behältern eine gute Standfestigkeit gibt.This creates a very stable lower part which retains its inherent rigidity even after the upper part has been removed and gives the containers good stability.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung liegt darin, daß das Oberteil eine Deckwand aufweist, mit der es auf den Behältern aufliegt, wobei an dieser Deckwand beiderseits je eine Seitenwand angelenkt ist, die jeweils mit wenigstens einem Ansatz versehen ist, der die entsprechende Seitenwand des Unterteils wenigstens teilweise übergreift.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the upper part has a top wall with which it rests on the containers, wherein a side wall is articulated on both sides of this top wall, each of which is provided with at least one extension, which corresponds to the corresponding side wall of the lower part overlaps at least partially.

Dieses Oberteil hält am Unterteil sehr gut, kann jedoch aufgrund der einfachen Befestigung am Unterteil sehr leicht von diesem entfernt werden.This upper part holds the lower part very well, but can be easily removed from the lower part due to the simple attachment to the lower part.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung liegt darin, daß die eine Seitenwand des Oberteils mit zwei im Abstand voneinander angeordneten bogenförmigen Abschnitten und die andere Seitenwand mit einem eine Zweipunktanlage erbringenden wellenförmigen Abschnitt versehen ist, während das Unterteil entsprechende Ausstanzungen zur Aufnahme dieser Abschnitte aufweist.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the one side wall of the upper part is provided with two arcuate sections arranged at a distance from one another and the other side wall is provided with an undulating section which provides a two-point system, while the lower part has corresponding punched-out areas for receiving these sections.

Damit erhält das Oberteil einen noch besseren Halt am Unterteil und kann diesen auch auf die Behälter übertragen.This gives the top part an even better hold on the bottom part and can also transfer this to the container.

Eine ganz besonders stabile Verbindung zwischen Ober- und Unterteil wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß wenigstens eine der beiden Seitenwände des Oberteils mit zwei im Abstand voneinander angeordneten Ansätzen versehen ist.A very particularly stable connection between the upper and lower part is achieved according to the invention in that at least one of the two side walls of the upper part is provided with two spaced apart approaches.

Eine sehr einfache Ausgestaltung der Verpackung für eine zweireihige Anordnung der Behälter wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erzielt, daß zwei Unterteile nebeneinander angeordnet sind, deren einander benachbarte Seitenwände mit einander verklebt sind, und daß die auf den Behältern aufliegende Deckwand des Oberteils der Breite von zwei Behälterreihen entspricht.A very simple configuration of the packaging for a two-row arrangement of the containers is achieved according to the invention in that two lower parts are arranged side by side, the adjacent side walls of which are glued to one another, and in that the top wall of the upper part resting on the containers corresponds to the width of two rows of containers.

Mit 1 ist in Fig.1 ein flachliegender Kartonzuschnitt bezeichnet, der einen Bodenwand-Abschnitt 2 aufweist, an dem über eine Faltlinie 3 eine Seitenwand 4 angelenkt ist. Über eine weitere Faltlinie 5 ist an dieser Seitenwand 4 eine Oberwand 6 angeformt, die ihrerseits unter Zwischenschaltung einer Faltlinie 7 eine weitere Seitenwand 8 trägt. An den freien Kanten dieser vier Wände 2,4,6,8 sind unterschiedlich große Klappen 9 angelenkt, welche sich überlappend die Stirnwände des Unterteils bilden. Die Oberwand 6 ist mit Stanzlinien 11 und Rillinien 12 versehen, durch welche Lappen 13,14 und 15 gebildet sind, die nach unten umgefaltet werden und teilweise an der Bodenwand und den Seitenwänden anliegen. Dadurch wird der Oberwand und damit dem gesamten Unterteil eine hohe Steifigkeit bzw.Verwindungssteifigkeit verliehen. An der Seitenwand 8 ist ein weiterer Bodenwand-Abschnitt 16 über eine Faltlinie 10 angelenkt, der beim Aufrichten des Unterteils mit dem anderen Bodenwand-Abschnitt 2 durch kleben oder siegeln verbunden wird. Die beiden Seitenwände 4 und 8 sind mit Ausstanzungen 17 bzw. 18 sowie T-förmigen Einschnitten 19 versehen, in denen das Verpackungs-Oberteil festgelegt wird. Die T-förmigen Einschnitte 19 verlaufen mit ihrem horizontalen Abschnitt parallel zur benachbarten Faltlinie 3 bzw. 10, in deren Verlauf im Bereich der T-förmigen Einschnitte ebenfalls Einschnitte vorgesehen sind, die eine einwandfreie Faltung ohne Beeinträchtigung der T-förmigen Einschnitte ermöglichen.1 in FIG. 1 denotes a flat cardboard blank which has a bottom wall section 2 to which a side wall 4 is articulated via a folding line 3. A top wall 6 is formed on this side wall 4 via a further folding line 5, which in turn carries a further side wall 8 with the interposition of a folding line 7. Flaps 9 of different sizes are articulated on the free edges of these four walls 2, 4, 6, 8, which overlap form the end walls of the lower part. The top wall 6 is provided with punched lines 11 and crease lines 12, by means of which tabs 13, 14 and 15 are formed, which are folded down and partially on the Bottom wall and the side walls fit. This gives the top wall and thus the entire lower part high rigidity or torsional rigidity. A further bottom wall section 16 is articulated on the side wall 8 via a folding line 10, which is connected to the other bottom wall section 2 by gluing or sealing when the lower part is erected. The two side walls 4 and 8 are provided with punchings 17 and 18 and T-shaped incisions 19, in which the upper part of the packaging is fixed. The horizontal section of the T-shaped incisions 19 runs parallel to the adjacent folding line 3 or 10, in the course of which, in the course of the T-shaped incisions, incisions are also provided which enable perfect folding without impairing the T-shaped incisions.

Das Oberteil der Verpackung ist ebenfalls aus einem flachliegenden Kartonzuschnitt 20 hergestellt, der eine Deckwand 21 aufweist, an der beiderseits je eine Seitenwand 22,23 angelenkt ist. Die eine Seitenwand 22 ist mit einem Ansatz 24 ausgerüstet, aus dem ein wellenförmig verlaufender Abschnitt 25 ausgestanzt ist, der eine Faltlinie 26 unterbricht. Das freie Ende dieses Ansatzes 24 ist mit zwei bogenförmigen Nasen 27 versehen. Die andere Seitenwand 23 ist mit zwei Ansätzen 28 und 29 versehen, die beide jeweils mit einem bogenförmigen Abschnitt 30 ausgestattet sind, der eine entsprechende Faltlinie 26 unterbricht. Die freien Enden dieser beiden Ansätze tragen wiederum bogenförmige Nasen 27. Am Übergang zwischen der Deckwand 21 und den beiden Seitenwänden 22 und 23 sind übliche Aussparungen 31 vorgesehen, die eine Anpassung des Oberteils an die auftretenden Behältertoleranzen ermöglichen. Darüber hinaus sind in beiden Seitenwänden 22,23 Löcher 32 ausgestanzt, die einen Durchblick auf die einzelnen verpackten Behälter und deren Preisauszeichnung erlauben.
Beim Herstellen der Gesamtverpackung wird -nach dem Aufrichten und Verschließen des Unterteils und dessen Befüllung mit Behältern- das Oberteil über die Behälter gelegt. Die Ansätze 24,28,29 werden an das Unterteil angelegt und die wellen- bzw. bogenförmigen Abschnitte 25,30 in die entsprechenden Ausstanzungen 17 und 18 eingesteckt. Gleichzeitig werden die bogenförmigen Ansätze 27 in die T-förmigen Einschnitte 19 eingedrückt, wodurch die Ansätze einen sehr guten Halt am Unterteil erhalten.The upper part of the packaging is also made from a flat cardboard blank 20 which has a top wall 21, to each of which a side wall 22, 23 is articulated. One side wall 22 is equipped with an extension 24, from which a corrugated section 25 is punched out, which interrupts a fold line 26. The free end of this approach 24 is provided with two arcuate lugs 27. The other side wall 23 is provided with two lugs 28 and 29, both of which are each equipped with an arcuate section 30 which interrupts a corresponding fold line 26. The free ends of these two approaches in turn carry curved lugs 27. At the transition between the top wall 21 and the two side walls 22 and 23, customary cutouts 31 are provided which allow the upper part to be adapted to the container tolerances that occur. In addition, holes 22, 23 are punched out in both side walls, which allow a view of the individually packaged containers and their price labeling.
When producing the overall packaging, after the upright part of the lower part has been closed and closed Filling with containers - put the top over the containers. The lugs 24, 28, 29 are placed on the lower part and the wave-shaped or arcuate sections 25, 30 are inserted into the corresponding punched-out portions 17 and 18. At the same time, the arcuate lugs 27 are pressed into the T-shaped incisions 19, as a result of which the lugs receive a very good hold on the lower part.

Beim in den Fig.3 und 4 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Ansätze 24,28,29 länger ausgebildet, was aber für die Funktion keine Bedeutung hat. Der Zuschnitt 1 ist zu einem trayartigen Unterteil 100 aufgerichtet und in den in seiner Oberwand gebildeten Öffnungen stecken fünf als Flaschen ausgebildete Behälter 101, die ihrerseits von dem Oberteil 120 gehalten werden.In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the lugs 24, 28, 29 are longer, but this has no significance for the function. The blank 1 is erected into a tray-like lower part 100 and in the openings formed in its upper wall there are five containers 101 designed as bottles, which in turn are held by the upper part 120.

In Fig.5 ist das Oberteil von der Verpackung abgenommen, was durch einfaches Herausziehen der Abschnitte 25,30 aus den entsprechenden Ausstanzungen 17,18 und der bogenförmigen Ansätze 27 aus den T-förmigen Einschnitten 19 geschehen ist.5, the upper part is removed from the packaging, which is done by simply pulling the sections 25, 30 out of the corresponding punched-out areas 17, 18 and the curved projections 27 from the T-shaped incisions 19.

Beim in Fig.6 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind zwei trayartige Unterteile 100 nebeneinander angeordnet und an den dabei benachbarten Seitenwänden miteinander verklebt. Damit ist eine zweireihige Verpackung geschaffen, deren Behälter 101 von einem entsprechend ausgebildeten Oberteil 121 mit breiterer Deckwand gehalten werden.In the embodiment shown in Figure 6, two tray-like lower parts 100 are arranged side by side and glued together on the adjacent side walls. This creates a double-row package, the container 101 of which is held by a correspondingly designed upper part 121 with a wider top wall.
