Definitions

  • the invention relates to packaging for eggs or the like.
  • shock sensitive Objects with a lower part designed as a fiber molded part and one in Lower part of standing eggs or the like overlapping lid part, which consists of a flat lying Cardboard blank is erected and on the lower part at least on one long side Snap locks can be fixed, the cover part, which has a cover surface, on the edges of which are articulated on four side walls, with one long side on the lower part above an adhesive connection is articulated and the on the opposite long side Has snap locks.
  • the invention has for its object a packaging of the type mentioned to design that the finished packaging in the unfolded Condition stacked in a multitude and with automatic machines can be safely separated.
  • the protection of the eggs or the like. is largely based on the lower part of the packaging, while the cardboard lid part designed according to the invention for additional protection completely sufficient, but on the other hand, it is outstandingly printable and therefore everyone Can record consumer information.
  • a simple opening and closing of the packaging guaranteed and thus easy control of the content by the buyer possible.
  • a material strip is articulated on the lower part, on which the cover part (or the upper part or the cover) has a Adhesive connection is attached.
  • Another advantageous embodiment of the invention is that on the lower part is made of the same material upper part is hinged, via which a Cardboard top is turned over.
  • Cover part has a central cover surface, on the longitudinal edges of two Folding lines are articulated two opposite side walls, the free Longitudinal edges are longer than the articulation fold lines, and that on the two Front edges of the lid surface also widening towards the free end Sidewalls are articulated.
  • connection flaps are hinged to the lid part in the erected state the adjacent side wall are defined.
  • the connecting flaps are arcuate run and the lid surface also has arcuate corners.
  • the longitudinal side walls have arcuate end portions and at least part of the form the two narrow sides provided side walls, and that on the Top surface of the narrow side walls are hinged, which are the two end sections connect with each other.
  • the two narrow side walls are arched.
  • one of the An adhesive flap is articulated along the longitudinal side walls, via which the cover part is attached the lower part is connectable.
  • tabs also form stacking cams when the upper part is erected, the perfect unstacking of the complete but opened packaging enable.
  • FIG. 1 in FIG. 1 denotes a cardboard blank that has a cover surface 2 which over fold lines 3,4,5,6 two longitudinal side walls 7 and 8 and two Narrow side walls 9 and 10 are articulated. With both pairs of side walls the free edges are longer than the articulation fold lines 3,4 and 5,6 so that all four Sidewalls are trapezoidal.
  • two openings 15, 16 are arranged, which are part of Snap fasteners with a lower packaging part shown in Figure 3 are.
  • FIG. 2 shows an upper packaging part 21 which is made from the blank 1 is erected.
  • This upper part 21 is connected to the longitudinal side wall 8 with a Fig.3 schematically shown lower part 30 connected as it is for packaging Eggs is known.
  • This lower part 30 has an articulated at one longitudinal edge arranged connecting tab 31, which is glued to the longitudinal side wall 8.
  • two cams 32 are formed, which in closed state of the packaging from the inside into the two openings 15 and 16 intervene.
  • FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of a cardboard blank 41, which also has a central cover surface 42, on which fold lines 3 and 4 the two longitudinal side walls 7 and 8 are articulated. Both longitudinal side walls correspond completely to those from FIG. 1, the connecting flaps 43 and 44 are articulated via intermediate pieces 45 and 46 on the respective side wall. To the Intermediate pieces 45 and 46 are laterally articulated gusset surfaces 47 and 48, which are separated from the cover surface 42 along cutting lines 49.
  • FIG. 5 shows a packaging upper part 51 according to the invention, which is cut from the Fig.4 is erected. Above all, it can be seen how the gusset surfaces 47 and 48 are applied to the inside of the lid surface 42.
  • the wall section 35 is on the Folded inside of the longitudinal side wall 7 and the end of the two folding flaps 36 and 37 is attached to the inside of the top surface, creating effective stacking aids are created.
  • FIG. 6 shows a further embodiment of a cardboard blank 61 with a Cover surface 62, which has four rounded corners.
  • To the straight ones Boundary edges of the cover surface 62 are two longitudinal side walls 63 and 64 as well as two narrow side walls 65, which are all rectangular.
  • On the two longitudinal side walls 63 and 64 are arc-shaped connecting flaps 66 and 67 articulated, which are divided into several fold lines 68.
  • the longitudinal side wall 64 is narrower than the opposite side wall 63, and is used to attach to the connecting tab 31 of the lower part of Figure 3.
  • narrow side walls 65 correspond to the longitudinal side wall 63, so that the Connection flaps 67 compensate for the different width.
  • FIG. 7 A packaging upper part 71 according to the invention erected from this blank according to FIG. 6 is shown in FIG Fig. 7 shown.
  • FIG. 8 Another cardboard blank 81 is shown in FIG. 8, with the cover surface there 82 again carries two longitudinal side walls 83 and 84. To link the two identical narrow side walls 85, curved fold lines 86 are provided. On hers free end, the two narrow side walls 85 lobes 87, which insich through several fold lines 88 are divided. The two longitudinal side walls are with arcuate end sections serving as connecting flaps 89 Mistake.
  • Longitudinal side wall 83 is hinged to a tab 90, which can be seen from FIG Is placed inside the longitudinal side wall to stiffen its free edge.
  • the tabs 87 are also folded inwards and fixed with its end section to the cover surface 82, so that stacking aids are formed here.
