Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Behälter jeder Art für Lebensmittel mit einem Verschlußdeckel, dessen umlaufender Rand von einem den oberen Rand der Behälterschale umlau-fenden, mit der Wand letzterer einstückig ausgebildeten Schutzelement abgedeckt so umfaßt ist, daß die Abnahme des Deckels behindert ist, und mit einer Abreißlasche, die über Sollbruchstellen mit dem schutzelement halterungsmäßig verbunden ist und an ihrer Unterkante mindestens eine Auskragung aufweist, die in eine entsprechende Ausnehmung des Schutzelementes des Behälters eingepaßt und mit diesem über Sollbruchstellen verbunden ist, wobei nach Entfernung der Abreißlasche und damit der Auskragung aus der ent-sprechenden Ausnehmung des Schutzelementes der Deckelrand dem Öffnungsgriff zugänglich ist.The invention relates to a container of all kinds for Food with a lid, the circumferential Edge of one wrapping around the upper edge of the container shell, integrally formed with the wall of the latter Protective element is covered so that the decrease of Lid is hindered, and with a tear-off tab that over Breakage points connected to the protective element in terms of bracket and at least one on its lower edge Has projection that in a corresponding recess the protective element of the container fitted and with this is connected via predetermined breaking points, whereby according to distance the tear-off tab and thus the cantilever from the corresponding Recess of the protective element of the lid edge the opening handle is accessible.

Insbesondere in der Lebensmittelindustrie ist es erwünscht, das Risiko unbefugter Erstöffnungen von mit Lebensmitteln, z.B. mit Salaten gefüllten, verschlossenen Behältern wie Schalen oder Becher klein zu halten und zugleich für eine schnelle Erkennbarkeit zu sorgen, wenn derartige Behälter unbefugt einer Erstöffnung ausgesetzt worden sind. In the food industry in particular, it is desirable the risk of unauthorized opening of foodstuffs, e.g. sealed containers filled with salads such as Keep bowls or cups small and at the same time for one to ensure quick detectability when such containers have been subjected to unauthorized opening.

Zur Lösung dieses Problems dient ein nach der DE 44 18 935 A1 bekannter Behälter der eingangs erwähnten Art in ausgezeichneter Weise, da zum einen das einstückig mit der Behälterwand ausgebildete Schutzelement und die mit dieser halterungsmäßig verbundene Abreißlasche die Abnahme des Deckels behindern, und zum anderen bei Beschädigung der Sollbruchstellen zwischen der Abreißlasche und dem Behälter eine Manipulation an diesem bzw. eine unbefugte Erstöffnung des verschlossenen Behälters deutlich und schnell erkennbar ist. Will hingegen ein Benutzer den Behälter nach Erwerb öffnen, so braucht er nur an der Abreißlasche in Behälterumfangsrichtung zu ziehen, wobei die letztere und den Behälter verbindenden Sollbruchstellen durchtrenntund die in die Ausnehmung in dem Schutzelement des Behälters eingepaßte Austragung der Abreißlasche aus der Ausnehmung gezogen werden, so daß der Benutzer bequem mit dem Finger in die freigelegte Ausnehmung des Schutzelementes eingreifen und damit unter den Deckel fassen kann, um diesen nach oben vom Behälter zu ziehen. Die Abreißlasche kann bevorzugt bekannterweise bei Rundschalen mit entsprechendem Deckel mit ihrer Außenfläche schlüssig mit der Außenfläche des Schutzelementes verlaufend so angeordnet sein, daß die obere und die untere Kante des Schutzelementes mit der oberen bzw. der unteren Kante der Abreißlasche fluchten, wobei die Enden der Abreißlasche teilweise frei beweglich sind (DE 1 95 12 108 A1).A solution according to DE 44 18 935 is used to solve this problem A1 known container of the type mentioned in excellent Way, because the one piece with the Container wall trained protective element and with this bracket-connected tear-off tab the removal of the Hinder lid, and on the other hand if the Predetermined breaking points between the tear-off tab and the container tampering with this or unauthorized opening of the closed container clearly and quickly recognizable is. On the other hand, a user wants the container after purchase open, it only needs to be on the tear-off tab in the circumferential direction of the container to draw, the latter and the The predetermined breaking points connecting the container and fitted into the recess in the protective element of the container Extraction of the tear-off tab pulled out of the recess be so that the user comfortably with his finger in engage the exposed recess of the protective element and can reach under the lid to hold it up pull from the container. The tear tab can be preferred as is known for round shells with a corresponding lid with its outer surface coherent with the outer surface of the Protective element to be arranged so that the upper and lower edge of the protective element with the align the top or bottom edge of the tear-off tab, the ends of the tear-off tab partially freely movable are (DE 1 95 12 108 A1).

Für den Erwerber derartiger mit Lebensmitteln gefüllter Behälter ist oft die schnelle Verfügbarkeit eines Einweg-Bestecks bzw. Einweg-Besteckteils, wie z.B. eines Löffels oder einer Gabel erwünscht. Häufig wird ein solches Besteckteil getrennt gelagert und dem Benutzer auf Anforderung überreicht. Jedoch ist es auch üblich, z.B. bei tiefgefrorenen Eisbechern, einen in Folie verpackten Löffel auf den Becherdeckel aufzukleben. For the purchaser of such filled with food Container is often the quick availability of disposable cutlery or disposable cutlery, such as a spoon or a fork. Such a piece of cutlery is often used stored separately and on the user Submitted request. However, it is also common, e.g. at frozen ice cream cups, a spoon wrapped in foil stick on the mug lid.

Bei einem bekannten Behälter ähnlich der eingangs erwähnten Art (DE-GM 297 02 676.3), der auch auf die Anmelderin der vorliegenden Erfindung zurückgeht, ist der Boden des Deckels des Behälters verhältnismäßig stark tiefgezogen und mit im Abstand zueinander angeordneten Halterungselementen versehen, zwischen denen mindestens ein Besteckteil entfernbar im Deckel aufgenommen und gehaltert ist, wobei eine das Besteckteil überdeckende, in einer umlaufenden Rasterung an der Innenwand des Deckelrandes abnehmbar gehalterter Abdeckplatte vorgesehen ist, die nur bei Entfernung der Abreißlasche von dem Schutzelement und damit bei Entfernung der mindestens einen Auskragung der Abreißlasche aus der entsprechenden Ausnehmung des Schutzelementes aus der Rasterung der Innenwand des Deckelrandes abnehmbar ist.In a known container similar to that mentioned at the beginning Art (DE-GM 297 02 676.3), which also applies to the applicant the present invention goes back, is the bottom of the Lid of the container relatively deep-drawn and with spaced-apart mounting elements provided, between which at least one piece of cutlery can be removed is accommodated and held in the lid, one covering the cutlery in a circumferential way Detachable grid on the inner wall of the lid edge bracket plate is provided, which only at Removal of the tear-off tab from the protective element and thus when removing the at least one projection of the tear-off tab from the corresponding recess of the protective element removable from the grid of the inner wall of the lid edge is.

Vorteilhaft ist bei diesem bekannten Behälter, daß das unerwünschte getrennte Lagern des Besteckteils in bezug auf den Behälter nicht gegeben ist. Jedoch ist das Herausnehmen der Abdeckplatte des einen tiefgezogenen Boden aufweisenden Behälterdeckels nach Entfernen der Abreißlasche zwecks Zugriffs auf das Besteckteil vor oder nach dem Abheben des Deckels vom Behälter verhältnismäßig unpraktisch, und die gesamte Anordnung der Behälterelemente genügt insbesondere bei flüssigem Behälterinhalt dichtungsmäßig nicht den gewünschten Anforderungen.It is advantageous in this known container that the unwanted separate storage of the cutlery part with respect the container is not given. However, the taking out is the cover plate of a deep-drawn floor Container lid after removing the tear-off tab Access to the cutlery before or after lifting the Lid from the container relatively impractical, and the entire arrangement of the container elements is particularly sufficient the seal is not the desired one for liquid container contents Conditions.

Häufig ist bei mit Lebensmitteln wie z.B. mit Salaten oder Suppen gefüllten Behältern die Verfügbarkeit von Ingredienzen wie Salz, Pfeffer und/oder andere Gewürzen erwünscht. Für gewöhnlich werden diese Zutaten jeweils in gesonderten, verhältnismäßig kleinen Kunststoffverpackungen vom Behälter getrennt beigefügt.Often with food such as with salads or Soup filled containers the availability of ingredients such as salt, pepper and / or other spices he wishes. Usually these ingredients are in each separate, relatively small plastic packaging attached separately from the container.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Behälter der zuvor genannten Art dahingehend zu verbessern, daß bei Aufrechterhaltung der Sicherung gegen unbefugte Erstöffnung des Behälters bzw. der zuverlässigen Kontrollmöglichkeit einer unbefugten Erstöffnung bei vereinfachter funktionaler Zueinanderordnung der Behälterelemente und deren erhöhter Abdichtung zueinander den bei Lebensmittelverpackungen herrschenden Hygieneanforderungen überdimensional genügt wird. Zusätzlich soll die Möglichkeit der Verfügbarkeit von Zutaten ohne deren getrennte Lagerung vom Behälter gegeben sein.The invention has for its object a container to improve the aforementioned type in that Maintenance of security against unauthorized opening the container or the reliable control option an unauthorized opening with simplified functional Interrelation of the container elements and their increased Sealing to each other that in food packaging prevailing hygiene requirements are oversized becomes. In addition, the possibility of the availability of Ingredients given without their separate storage from the container his.
