The invention further relates to methods and apparatus for the manufacture of such folding boxes.

Klappschachteln sind standardmäßig so ausgebildet, daß im Schachtelteil ein Kragen angeordnet ist, der mit einem Teilbereich aus dem Schachtelteil herausragt. Dieser obere Teil des Kragens ist in Schließstellung der Klappschachtel vom Deckel umschlossen. Der Kragen besteht aus einem gesonderten Zuschnitt, ebenfalls aus (dünnem) Karton, kann aber auch einstückig mit dem (Haupt-)Zuschnitt für Schachtelteil und Deckel verbunden sein. Die gesamte Klappschachtel besteht in diesem Falle aus einem einzigen Zuschnitt.By default, folding boxes are designed so that in Box part of a collar is arranged with a partial area protrudes from the box part. This upper part of the The collar is in the closed position of the hinged box from the lid enclosed. The collar consists of a separate cut, also made of (thin) cardboard, but can also be made in one piece with the (main) cut for box part and lid be connected. The entire hinged box consists of this Trap from a single blank.

Der Kragen ist bei den bisher üblichen Klappschachteln stets durchgehend in weißer Farbe bzw. Naturfarben - entsprechend der Farbe des Materials für den Kragen - ausgebildet. Die Klappschachtel selbst ist hingegen im Bereich des Schachtelteils und des Deckels außen allseitig mit farbiger Bedruckung versehen.The collar is always in the usual folding boxes throughout in white or natural colors - according to the Color of the material for the collar - trained. The hinged box itself is in the area of the box part and the outside of the lid is colored on all sides.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Klappschachteln hinsichtlich der Ausgestaltung weiterzuentwickeln und zu verbessern.The invention has for its object, folding boxes with regard to further develop and improve the design.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist die erfindungsgemäße Klappschachtel durch folgende Merkmale gekennzeichnet:

  • a) die freien, aus dem Schachtelteil herausragenden Sichtflächen der Kragen-Vorderwand und/oder Kragen-Seitenlappen sind mit einer Bedruckung versehen, nämlich mit auf die Sichtflächen aufgebrachter Druckfarbenschicht,
  • b) die Bedruckung im Bereich der Kragen-Vorderwand und/oder Kragen-Seitenlappen ist von einer Schutzschicht überdeckt, insbesondere einer Lack- oder Firnis-Schicht,
  • c) die Schutzschicht bzw. Lack- oder Firnis-Schicht erstreckt sich vollflächig im Bereich der Sichtflächen der Kragen-Vorderwand und/oder der Kragen-Seitenlappen und endet im Bereich einer durch die Schachtel-Vorderwand gebildeten oberen Vorder-Schließkante bzw. im Bereich von durch die Schachtel-Seitenwände gebildeten oberen Seiten-Schließkanten, derart, daß die Fixierungsflächen von Kragen-Vorderwand und/oder Kragen-Seitenlappen frei von Schutzschicht bzw. Lack- oder Firnis-Schicht sind.
  • To solve this problem, the hinged box according to the invention is characterized by the following features:
  • a) the free visible surfaces of the collar front wall and / or collar side flaps protruding from the box part are provided with printing, namely with an ink layer applied to the visible surfaces,
  • b) the printing in the area of the collar front wall and / or collar side flaps is covered by a protective layer, in particular a lacquer or varnish layer,
  • c) the protective layer or varnish or varnish layer extends over the entire area in the area of the visible surfaces of the collar front wall and / or the collar side flaps and ends in the area of an upper front closing edge formed by the box front wall or in the area of upper side closing edges formed by the box side walls, such that the fixing surfaces of the collar front wall and / or collar side flaps are free of protective layer or lacquer or varnish layer.
  • Durch die Erfindung ist eine verpackungstechnisch einwandfreie Bedruckung des Kragens möglich. Vorzugsweise sind lediglich die aus dem Schachtelteil herausragenden Bereiche des Kragens mit einer derartigen Bedruckung versehen, da die übrigen Bereiche verdeckt sind. Eine bei einer derartigen Bedruckung übliche äußere Schutzschicht aus Lack bzw. Firnis ist bei dieser bevorzugten Ausführung ebenfalls nur im Bereich der aus dem Schachtelteil herausragenden Flächen des Kragens vorgesenen. Dadurch ist nach den weiteren Erkenntnissen der Erfindung eine ausreichende bzw. technisch einwandfreie Fixierung des Kragens innerhalb des Schachtelteils durch Klebung möglich. Die mit Leim zu versehenen Flächen, nämlich Fixierungsflächen des Kragens, sind demnach erfindungsgemäß frei von einer Bedruckung und auch frei von Schutzschichten.The invention makes packaging technically flawless Printing on the collar possible. Preferably only areas of the collar protruding from the box part provided with such printing, since the other areas are covered. A usual with such a printing outer protective layer of lacquer or varnish is preferred in this Also only in the area of the box part protruding areas of the collar. Thereby is sufficient according to the further knowledge of the invention or technically perfect fixation of the collar within of the box part possible by gluing. The one with glue surfaces to be provided, namely fixing surfaces of the collar, are accordingly free from printing and also according to the invention free of protective layers.

    Die Erfindung kann besonders vorteilhaft auch bei einstückigen (Gesamt-)Zuschnitten für Klappschachteln eingesetzt werden. Der Kragen ist bei diesem Packungstyp zweckmäßigerweise durch Z-förmig gefaltete Lappen bzw. Stege mit dem Schachtelteil, insbesondere der Schachtel-Vorderwand verbunden.The invention can also be particularly advantageous in one-piece (Overall) cuts for hinged boxes can be used. The In this type of pack, the collar is expediently Z-shaped folded rags or webs with the box part, in particular connected to the front of the box.

    Bei herkömmlichen Klappschachteln mit einem Kragen aus gesondertem Zuschnitt werden die unterschiedlichen Flächen des Kragens, nämlich die bedruckten und/oder mit einer Schutzschicht versehenen Sichtflächen einerseits und die von Bedruckung und/oder Schutzschicht freien Fixierungsflächen zweckmäßigerweise im Bereich einer fortlaufenden Bahn für die Fertigung von Zuschnitten für Kragen aufgebracht. Die der Form des Kragens entsprechenden Schnitte bzw. Stanzungen zum Abtrennen der Kragen werden dann - gesteuert durch Druckmarken - im Bereich zwischen aufeinanderfolgenden Sichtflächen und Fixierungsflächen benachbarter Kragen ausgeführt.In conventional folding boxes with a collar made of separate The different areas of the collar are cut, namely the printed and / or with a protective layer provided visible surfaces on the one hand and those of printing and / or protective layer free fixation surfaces expediently in the area of a continuous web for the production of Blanks applied to the collar. The shape of the collar appropriate cuts or punchings to separate the Collars are then - controlled by print marks - in the area between successive visible surfaces and fixation surfaces neighboring collar executed.

    Zum Fertigen einzelner Zuschnitte für Kragen wird eine hinsichtlich der Bedruckung vorgefertigte Materialbahn aus insbesondere dünnem Karton durch eine Schneidvorrichtung hindurchgeleitet mit mindestens einer Schneidwalze, auf deren Umfang eine Anzahl von (Schneid-)Messern entsprechend der Kontur der Kragen angeordnet ist. Der Abstand der Messer voneinander ist geringfügig größer als die entsprechende Abmessung eines Kragens, um Bewegungsdifferenzen zwischen Materialbahn und Schneid- bzw. Messerwalze auszugleichen.For making individual cuts for collars becomes a material web that is prefabricated with regard to printing made of thin cardboard in particular by a cutting device passed through with at least one cutting roller the scope of which is a number of (cutting) knives corresponding to the Contour of the collar is arranged. The distance between the knives is slightly larger than the corresponding dimension of a collar to detect movement differences between the material web and to compensate for the cutting or knife roller.

    Bei einem vorteilhaften Ausführungsbeispiel einer Klappschachtel gemäß Fig. 1 und Fig. 4 ist ein einstückiger Zuschnitt vorgesehen für die Klappschachtel. Der Kragen 30 ist einstückig mit einem Hauptzuschnitt 36 für Schachtelteil 10 und Deckel 11 verbunden. Die Einheit des (Gesamt-)Zuschnitts wird im vorliegenden Fall durch Stege 37 bewirkt, die als Restverbindungen wirken. Außerhalb dieser Stege 37 ist der Kragen 30 vom Hauptzuschnitt 36 durch Stanzschnitte 38, 39 getrennt. Die Stanzschnitte 38, 39 definieren zugleich die Vorder-Schließkante 27 und die Seiten-Schließkanten 28, 29. Die Stege 37 sind seitlich durch Trennschnitte 60, 61 begrenzt. Die Stege 37 sind demnach mit dem Kragen 30 einerseits und der Schachtel-Vorderwand 12 andererseits über quergerichtete Gelenke verbunden, die eine Z-förmige Faltung gewährleisten.In an advantageous embodiment of a hinged box 1 and 4, a one-piece blank is provided for the hinged box. The collar 30 is in one piece with a main blank 36 for box part 10 and lid 11 connected. The unit of the (total) cut is in the present Case caused by webs 37 as residual connections Act. Outside of these webs 37, the collar 30 is from Main blank 36 separated by punch cuts 38, 39. The Die cuts 38, 39 also define the front closing edge 27 and the side closing edges 28, 29. The webs 37 are limited laterally by separating cuts 60, 61. The webs 37 are accordingly with the collar 30 on the one hand and the box front wall 12 on the other hand connected via transverse joints, the ensure a Z-shaped fold.

    Bei der Fertigung der Klappschachtel aus einem Zuschnitt gemäß Fig. 1 wird der Kragen 30 relativ zum Hauptzuschnitt 36 verschoben unter Z-förmiger Faltung der Stege 37. Diese liegen gemäß Fig. 2 und Fig. 3 an der Innenseite der Schachtel-Vorderwand 12 an unter Aufrechterhaltung der Verbindung mit dem Kragen 30. Außerhalb der Stege 37 liegt der Kragen 30 in üblicher Weise innen an der Kragen-Vorderwand 12 und kann durch Klebung mit dieser verbunden werden. Gleichermaßen liegen untere Bereiche der Kragen-Seitenlappen 33, 34 an der Innenseite der Schachtel-Seitenwände 14, 15 an (Fig. 2).When manufacturing the hinged box from a blank according to 1, the collar 30 is displaced relative to the main blank 36 under Z-shaped folding of the webs 37. These are according to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 on the inside of the box front wall 12 on while maintaining connection with the collar 30. Outside the webs 37, the collar 30 is in the usual Way inside the collar front wall 12 and can be by gluing be connected to this. Similarly, there are lower areas the collar side tabs 33, 34 on the inside of the Box side walls 14, 15 (Fig. 2).

    Eine wichtige Besonderheit besteht darin, daß der Kragen 30 auf der Außenseite mit einer Bedruckung versehen ist, nämlich mit einer Druckfarbenschicht 40. Diese ist in den Zeichnungen durch Punkte gekennzeichnet. Diese Flächenbereiche des Kragens 30, 31 werden nachfolgend als Sichtflächen 41 bezeichnet. Diese Sichtflächen 41, im wesentlichen die aus dem Schachtelteil 10 herausragenden außenliegenden Flächenbereiche des Kragens 30, 31, können vollflächig mit einer Druckfarbenschicht 40 versehen sein, aber auch mit dekorativer Bedruckung bzw. mit inhaltlichen Angaben, wie Werbehinweisen, Informationen etc. Auch ist es möglich, im Bereich der Sichtflächen 41 einen gesetzlich vorgeschriebenen Warnhinweis (zusätzlich) anzubringen.An important special feature is that the collar 30 on the outside is printed, namely with an ink layer 40. This is through in the drawings Dots marked. These surface areas of the collar 30, 31 are referred to below as visible surfaces 41. These visible areas 41, essentially that from the box part 10 protruding outer surface areas of the collar 30, 31, can be provided with an ink layer 40 over the entire surface be, but also with decorative printing or with content Information such as advertising notices, information etc. is also it is possible in the area of the visible surfaces 41 a legal the prescribed warning notice (additional).

    Die Druckfarbenschicht 40 im Bereich der Sichtflächen 41 ist von einer äußeren Schutzschicht 42 überdeckt. Diese besteht aus einer Lackschicht oder einer Firnisschicht bekannter Zusammensetzung. Die Schutzschicht 42 ist üblicherweise glänzend bzw. hochglänzend und schützt die Druckfarbenschicht 40.The ink layer 40 is in the area of the visible surfaces 41 covered by an outer protective layer 42. This consists of a lacquer layer or a varnish layer of known composition. The protective layer 42 is usually glossy or high gloss and protects the ink layer 40.

    Eine Besonderheit der vorliegenden Klappschachteln besteht in der Aufteilung der Vorderflächen des Kragens 30, 31. Die innerhalb des Schachtelteils 10 liegenden, also verdeckten Flächen des Kragens 30, 31 weisen keine Bedruckung auf, sind demnach frei von Druckfarbenschichten 40 und auch frei von Schutzschichten 42. Die im einzelnen zu beschreibenden Fixierungsflächen des Kragens sind im Bereich der Oberflächen in herkömmlicher Weise ausgebildet. Diese Fixierungsflächen sind mit Leim an den zugeordneten Flächen der Klappschachtel befestigt.A specialty of the present folding boxes is in the division of the front surfaces of the collar 30, 31. The inside of the box part 10 lying, ie hidden surfaces of the collar 30, 31 have no printing, are accordingly free of ink layers 40 and also free of protective layers 42. The fixation surfaces to be described in detail of the collar are conventional in the surface area Trained way. These fixation surfaces are made with glue attached to the assigned surfaces of the hinged box.

    Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 1 ist eine streifenförmige Fixierungsfläche 43, 44 im Bereich der Kragen-Vorderwand 32 und der Kragen-Seitenlappen 33, 34 gebildet, und zwar benachbart zur Schachtel-Vorderwand 12 und zu den (äußeren) Schachtel-Seitenlappen 22.

Im Bereich der Kragen-Seitenlappen 33, 34 ist die Fixierungsfläche 44 parallelogrammförmig ausgebildet entsprechend der Kontur des Kragens 30 in diesem Bereich. Die Breite der Fixierungsflächen 43, 44 entspricht etwa der Eintauchtiefe des Kragens 30 im Schachtelteil 10. Wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich ist die bedruckte Sichtfläche 41 so bemessen, das sie geringfügig von der Schachtel-Vorderwand 12 bzw. den Schachtel-Seitenwänden 14, 15 überlappt ist.1 is a strip-shaped one Fixing surface 43, 44 in the area of the collar front wall 32 and the collar side tab 33, 34 formed, namely adjacent to the box front wall 12 and to the (outer) Box side tabs 22. In the area of the collar front wall 32 a rectangular, strip-shaped fixing surface 43 is formed including the webs 37. In the area of the collar side tabs 33, 34, the fixing surface 44 is parallelogram-shaped formed according to the contour of the collar 30 in this Area. The width of the fixing surfaces 43, 44 corresponds about the immersion depth of the collar 30 in the box part 10. How 2, the printed visible surface 41 is dimensioned so slightly from the box front wall 12 or the box side walls 14, 15 is overlapped.

    Ein Zuschnitt für eine Klappschachtel gemäß Fig. 2 kann hinsichtlich der Ausbildung der Sichtflächen 41 und Fixierungsflächen 43, 44 rationell gefertigt werden. Im flachen Zustand werden die Flächen des Hauptzuschnitts 36 in üblicher Weise bedruckt. Gleichzeitig bzw. im Zuge dieses Arbeitsvorganges werden auch die Sichtflächen 41 des Kragens 30 bedruckt und mit der Schutzschicht 42 versehen unter Abgrenzung der freien Fixierungsflächen 43, 44. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel sind auch Flächen des Hauptzuschnitts 36 frei von Bedruckung und Schutzschicht, nämlich innenliegende Schachtel-Seitenlappen 23 sowie innenliegende Deckel-Seitenlappen 24 und ein bei der fertigen Klappschachtel im Bereich der Stirnwand 21 liegender Ecklappen 45.A cut for a hinged box according to FIG. 2 can be considered the formation of the visible surfaces 41 and fixing surfaces 43, 44 are rationally manufactured. Flat the areas of the main blank 36 are printed in the usual way. At the same time or in the course of this process also the visible surfaces 41 of the collar 30 printed and with the protective layer 42 provided delimiting the free Fixing surfaces 43, 44. In the present embodiment surfaces of the main blank 36 are also free of printing and protective layer, namely inside box side tabs 23 and inside lid side tabs 24 and one in the finished hinged box in the region of the end wall 21 lying corner flap 45.

    Eine Besonderheit besteht darin, daß die Fixierungsflächen 43, 44 auf der dem Hauptzuschnitt 36 zugekehrten Seite einen Randstreifen 46 aufweisen. Dieser ist im Bereich des Kragens 30 in Fortsetzung einer eventuellen Bedruckung der Schachtel-Vorderwand 12 und/oder der Schachtel-Seitenwände 14, 15 bzw. der äußeren Schachtel-Seitenlappen 22 ausgebildet, also mit einer Bedruckung und gegebenenfalls mit einer Schutzschicht, die dem Teil der Klappschachtel entspricht. Der Randstreifen 46 bildet einen Toleranzbereich für technisch gegebene Ungenauigkeiten beim Anbringen der Stanzschnitte 38, 39. Es soll sichergestellt werden, daß in jedem Falle die Schachtel-Vorderwand 12 und die Schachtel-Seitenwände 14, 15 exakt bis zur Vorder-Schließkante 27 und zu den Seiten-Schließkanten 28, 29 durchgehend eine Bedruckung aufweisen.A special feature is that the fixing surfaces 43, 44 an edge strip on the side facing the main blank 36 46 have. This is in the area of the collar 30 in Continuation of any printing on the front of the box 12 and / or the box side walls 14, 15 or the outer box side tabs 22 formed, so with a Printing and if necessary with a protective layer that the Part of the hinged box corresponds. The edge strip 46 forms a tolerance range for technically given inaccuracies when making the die cuts 38, 39. It should ensure be that in any case the box front wall 12 and the Box side walls 14, 15 exactly up to the front closing edge 27 and to the side closing edges 28, 29 continuous printing exhibit.

    Fig. 4 zeigt einen Zuschnitt für eine Klappschachtel, die weitgehend derjenigen gemäß Fig. 1 bis 3 entspricht. Im Bereich des Kragens 30 ist ein zusätzlicher Zuschnitt einstückig mit dem Kragen 30 verbunden, nämlich ein Coupon 47. Dieser besteht demnach aus demselben Material wie der Zuschnitt 30. Der Coupon ist über leicht trennbare Restverbindungen 48 mit dem Kragen 30 verbunden, und zwar im Bereich der Ausnehmung 35 der Kragen-Vorderwand 32. Der Coupon 47 ist in diesem Bereich als Zunge 49 ausgebildet, die passend in die Ausnehmung 35 ragt. Ein umfaltbarer Schenkel 50 schließt an die Zunge 49 an. Der Schenkel 50 erstreckt sich bei fertiger Klappschachtel in der Ebene der Stirnwand 21 bzw. parallel hierzu an der Innenseite der Stirnwand 21.Fig. 4 shows a blank for a hinged box, which largely corresponds to that according to FIGS. 1 to 3. In the area of Collar 30 is an additional blank in one piece with the Collar 30 connected, namely a coupon 47. This accordingly exists from the same material as the blank 30. The coupon is with easily separable residual connections 48 with the collar 30 connected, in the region of the recess 35 of the collar front wall 32. Coupon 47 is in this area as tongue 49 formed, which protrudes into the recess 35. A foldable Leg 50 connects to tongue 49.

When using this hinged box, Coupon 47 can be easily separated. The folding box then receives in Area of the collar the conventional or described shape.

    Der Coupon 47 kann mit Bedruckungen, Beschriftungen, Informationen oder Werbehinweisen versehen sein.The Coupon 47 can with printing, lettering, information or advertising notices.

    Fig. 5 zeigt in geöffneter Stellung eine im Aufbau herkömmliche Klappschachtel, bei der der Kragen 31 aus einem gesondertem Zuschnitt gebildet ist (Fig. 6, Fig. 7). Hinsichtlich der Bedruckung des Kragens 31 wird bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel analog zu den beschriebenen Beispielen vorgegangen.Fig. 5 shows a conventional construction in the open position Hinged box, in which the collar 31 from a separate blank is formed (Fig. 6, Fig. 7). Regarding the printing the collar 31 is in this embodiment proceeded analogously to the examples described.

    Der Kragen ist, wie insbesondere aus Fig. 6 ersichtlich, in einem unteren Bereich sowohl der Kragen-Vorderwand 32 als auch der Kragen-Seitenlappen 33, 34 mit Fixierungsflächen 51, 52 versehen. Diese sind in der beschriebenen Weise ausgebildet, also frei von Bedruckungen (Farbschichten) und Schutzschicht bzw. Lack. Die unbehandelten Fixierungsflächen 51, 52 sind durch Schraffieren dargestellt. Im Bereich der Kragen-Vorderwand 32 erstreckt sich die Fixierungsfläche 51 etwa über die halbe Höhe der Kragen-Vorderwand 32. Oberhalb einer Trennlinie 53 ist eine Sichtfläche 54 gebildet, die eine Bedruckung aufweist, also eine Druckfarbenschicht 40, und eine äußere Schutzschicht 42 bzw. eine Lackschicht. Im Bereich der Kragen-Seitenlappen 33, 34 ist eine schräggerichtete Trennlinie 55 zwischen der unteren Fixierungsfläche 52 und der oberen, trapezförmigen Sichtfläche 56 gebildet.The collar is, as can be seen particularly from FIG. 6, in a lower area of both the collar front wall 32 and the collar side tabs 33, 34 with fixing surfaces 51, 52 Mistake. These are designed in the manner described So free of printing (layers of paint) and protective layer or paint. The untreated fixation surfaces 51, 52 are represented by hatching. In the area of the collar front wall 32, the fixing surface 51 extends approximately over the half the height of the collar front wall 32. Above a dividing line 53 a visible surface 54 is formed which has printing, thus an ink layer 40, and an outer protective layer 42 or a layer of paint. In the area of the collar side tabs 33, 34 is an oblique dividing line 55 between the lower fixing surface 52 and the upper, trapezoidal Visible surface 56 formed.

    Innerhalb der Klappschachtel bzw. des Schachtelteils 10 (Fig. 5) ist der Kragen 31 mit den Fixierungsflächen 51, 52 an der Schachtel-Vorderwand 12 und den Schachtel-Seitenwänden 14, 15 durch Kleben befestigt. Die Relativstellung des Kragens 31 ist so gewählt, daß die Sichtflächen 54, 56 sich bis in einen oberen Randbereich des Schachtelteils 10 erstrecken, also bis geringfügig unterhalb der Vorder-Schließkante 27 und der Seiten-Schließkanten 28, 29.Within the hinged box or box part 10 (Fig. 5) is the collar 31 with the fixing surfaces 51, 52 on the Box front wall 12 and box side walls 14, 15 attached by gluing. The relative position of the collar 31 is chosen so that the visible surfaces 54, 56 extend into an upper one Extend edge area of the box part 10, that is to say slightly below the front closing edge 27 and the side closing edges 28, 29.

    Ein im Sinne von Fig. 6 ausgebildeter Kragen 31 kann verfahrenstechnisch so gefertigt werden, daß die mit einer bekannten, üblichen Kontur gestalteten Zuschnitte nacheinander von einer Materialbahn 57 abgetrennt werden. Die Materialbahn 57 besteht aus dünnem Karton. Vor dem Abtrennen der einzelnen Kragen 31 werden die Außenflächen der Kragen 31 vorbereitet. Im Bereich der fortlaufenden Materialbahn 57 werden Bedruckungen, also Druckfarbenschichten 40, auf Kragen-Vorderwand 32 und Kragen-Seitenlappen 33 aufgebracht. Des weiteren wird in diesen Bereichen die äußere Schutzschicht 42 bzw. Lackierung aufgetragen. Die schraffierten Bereiche, also die Fixierungsflächen 51, 52, bleiben frei von Druckfarben und Schutzschichten. Zur exakten Positionierung der Trennlinien 53 und 55 wird die Materialbahn 57 durch Druckmarken 58 im Bereich eines Druckwerks (nicht gezeigt) gesteuert.A collar 31 designed in the sense of FIG. 6 can be used in terms of process engineering are manufactured in such a way that the customary contours one after the other Material web 57 are separated. The material web 57 is made made of thin cardboard. Before detaching the individual collars 31 the outer surfaces of the collars 31 are prepared. In the area of the continuous material web 57 are printing, that is Ink layers 40, on collar front wall 32 and collar side tabs 33 applied. Furthermore, in these areas the outer protective layer 42 or paint applied. The hatched areas, that is to say the fixing surfaces 51, 52, remain free of printing inks and protective layers. For exact Positioning the dividing lines 53 and 55 becomes the material web 57 by print marks 58 in the area of a printing unit (not shown) controlled.

    Wie aus Fig. 7 ersichtlich, werden die Zuschnitte der Kragen 31 mit einem unteren, freien Rand gebildeten Randstreifen 59 abgetrennt. Dieser ist mit einer Fortsetzung der Bedruckung des nächstfolgenden Kragens 31 versehen, einschließlich der äußeren Schutzschicht. Der Randstreifen 59 dient als Toleranzbereich für das Anbringen eines Stanzschnitts 73 zum Abtrennen der Zuschnitte für den Kragen 31. Dadurch ist sichergestellt, daß ein oberer Rand des Kragens 31 stets die Bedruckung aufweist, jedenfalls keinen druckfreien Rand.As can be seen from FIG. 7, the blanks of the collars 31 separated with a lower, free edge formed edge strip 59. This is with a continuation of the printing on the next collar 31 provided, including the outer Protective layer. The edge strip 59 serves as a tolerance range for making a die cut 73 to separate the blanks for the collar 31. This ensures that a upper edge of the collar 31 always has the printing, at least no pressure-free margin.

    Von besonderer Bedeutung ist eine Vorrichtung zum Fertigen einzelner Zuschnitte für Kragen 31. Fig. 8 zeigt als wichtigsten Teil der Vorrichtung eine Schneidwalze 62 bzw. einen Abschnitt einer Mantelfläche derselben. Die Schneidwalze 62 ist längs des Umfangs mit in gleichen Abständen voneinander angeordneten Messern 63 versehen. Es handelt sich dabei um Schneiden, die in der Kontur der Kragen 31 geformt sind und über die Mantelfläche der Schneidwalze 62 hinwegragen.Of particular importance is a device for manufacturing individual Cuts for collar 31. Fig. 8 shows the most important Part of the device a cutting roller 62 or a section an outer surface of the same. The cutting roller 62 is along the Scope with knives arranged at equal distances from each other 63 provided. These are cutting edges that are in the contour of the collar 31 are shaped and over the outer surface protrude from the cutting roller 62.

    Die Messer 63 sind auf der Schneidwalze 62 mit (Umfangs-)Abständen 64 voneinander angeordnet, die geringfügig größer sind als die korrespondierenden Längen 65 der Kragen 31. Beispielsweise beträgt der Abstand 64 der Messer 63 52,9 mm, während die korrespondierende Länge 65 des Kragens 31 52 mm beträgt. Der Grund hierfür liegt darin, daß die Schneidwalze 62 mit geringfügig größerer Umfangsgeschwindigkeit angetrieben wird als die Fördergeschwindigkeit der Materialbahn 57. Der Unterschied der Geschwindigkeit kann etwa 2 % betragen. Zum Ausgleich ist der größere Abstand der Messer 63 vorgesehen, um Kragen 31 exakter Größe zu fertigen. Die Schneidwalze 62 ist - je nach Durchmesser - mit sieben oder acht Messern 63 längs des Umfangs bestückt. The knives 63 are on the cutting roller 62 (Circumferential) distances 64 from each other, which are slightly are greater than the corresponding lengths 65 of the collar 31. For example, the distance 64 between the knives 63 is 52.9 mm, while the corresponding length 65 of the collar 31 is 52 mm. The reason for this is that the cutting roller 62nd driven at a slightly higher peripheral speed is called the conveyor speed of the web of material 57. The difference the speed can be about 2%. To compensate the larger distance between the knives 63 is provided in order To produce collar 31 of exact size. The cutting roller 62 is - Depending on the diameter - with seven or eight knives 63 lengthways of the circumference.

    Die Schneidwalze 62 ist Bestandteil einer Vorrichtung, wie sie in einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform in Fig. 10 gezeigt ist. Die vorzugsweise von einer Bobine (nicht gezeigt) abgezogene Materialbahn 57 wird durch Vorzugwalzen 66, 67 mit exakter Geschwindigkeit gefördert. Die Materialbahn 57 gelangt im Anschluß an die Vorzugwalzen 66, 67 in den Bereich eines Schneidaggregats 68. Dieses besteht aus der beschriebenen Schneidwalze 62 und einer mitlaufenden Gegenwalze 69.The cutting roller 62 is part of a device such as that in an advantageous embodiment is shown in FIG. 10. The one preferably drawn off from a bobbin (not shown) Material web 57 is fed through feed rollers 66, 67 at exact speed promoted. The material web 57 then comes to the feed rollers 66, 67 in the area of a Cutting unit 68. This consists of the described Cutting roller 62 and an opposing counter roller 69.

    Die im Bereich des Schneidaggregats 68 abgetrennten Zuschnitte der Kragen 31 werden durch anschließende Förderer, nämlich Förderwalzen 70, 71 erfaßt und mit höherer Geschwindigkeit weitertransportiert. Dadurch erhält der abgetrennte Kragen 31 einen (größeren) Abstand von der Materialbahn 57. Ein weiteres Förderorgan, nämlich ein Mitnehmerhebel 72, übergibt den Kragen 31 an einen vorzugsweise quergerichteten Abförderer (nicht gezeigt), der den Kragen 31 der weiteren Verarbeitung zuführt. Dieser Bereich kann vorteilhafterweise nach Maßgabe von EP 0 324 160 ausgebildet sein.The cuts cut off in the area of the cutting unit 68 the collar 31 are by subsequent conveyors, namely conveyor rollers 70, 71 detected and transported at a higher speed. As a result, the detached collar 31 receives one (larger) distance from the material web 57.
