Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verpackungseinheit zur Verpackung und Portionierung eines Mediums, beispielsweise aus dem Bereich der Medizin, der Kosmetik, der Chemie oder der Lebensmittelindustrie, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Diese Verpackungseinheit weist zwei aneinander angeordnete flächige Elemente auf, die beispielsweise durch Folien, schalen- oder deckelartige Kunststoffteile, wie Tiefziehteile, beziehungsweise durch eine Kombination der selben gebildet ist. Durch den Begriff "flächig" soll hierbei lediglich ausgesagt sein, dass sich die Elemente im Wesentlichen über eine Fläche erstrecken, wobei sie jedoch insbesondere nicht flach ausgebildet sein müssen, sondern auch gewisse Konturen aufweisen können. Die beiden flächigen Elemente bilden durch bereichsweise Beabstandung voneinander eine geschlossene Kammer aus. In einem die Kammer umschließenden Bundbereich sind die flächigen Elemente miteinander verbunden, wobei der Bundbereich durch einen Außenrand begrenzt ist. Zur kontrollierten Abgabe eines in der Kammer gespeicherten Mediums ist eine Öffnungseinrichtung vorgesehen. Diese ist an einer von einem ersten Randabschnitt des Außenrandes abgewandten Seite der Kammer angeordnet und einem zweiten Randabschnitt zugewandt, der dem ersten am Außenrand gegenüber liegt.The invention relates to a packaging unit for packaging and portioning a medium, for example from the field of medicine, cosmetics, the food industry or the industry, according to the preamble of claim 1. This packaging unit has two juxtaposed planar elements, for example, by films, cupped or lid-like plastic parts, such as deep-drawn parts, or is formed by a combination of the same. The term "planar" should in this case merely state that the elements essentially extend over a surface, but in particular they need not be flat, but may also have certain contours. The two sheet-like elements form a closed chamber by spacing from each other. In a collar area surrounding the chamber, the sheet-like elements are connected to each other, wherein the waistband area is limited by an outer edge. For controlled delivery of a medium stored in the chamber, an opening device is provided. This is arranged on a side facing away from a first edge portion of the outer edge side of the chamber and facing a second edge portion, which lies opposite the first at the outer edge.

Aus DE 201 02 348 U1 ist eine Verpackungseinheit bekannt, die an einer weiteren Verpackung gehalten ist. Die Verpackungseinheit weist in einer Ausführungsform zwei Teileinheiten auf, die über einen Umlenkbereich miteinander verbunden sind. Die Teileinheiten weisen zur Abgabe eines gespeicherten Mediums jeweils eine vom Umlenkbereich abgewandte Öffnungseinrichtung auf. Beide Öffnungseinrichtungen werden durch Entfernen eines abtrennbaren Teils geöffnet.Out DE 201 02 348 U1 is known a packaging unit, which is held on a further packaging. In one embodiment, the packaging unit has two subunits which are connected to one another via a deflection region. The subunits each have an opening device facing away from the deflection region for dispensing a stored medium. Both opening devices are opened by removing a separable part.

Eine derartige Verpackungseinheit ermöglicht ein komfortables Öffnen ohne Hilfsmittel und eine exakte Abgabe des in der Kammer enthaltenen Mediums.Such a packaging unit allows a comfortable opening without tools and an exact delivery of the medium contained in the chamber.

Insbesondere bei Anwendungen im Bereich der Veterinär- oder Kindermedizin hat sich jedoch gezeigt, dass nach dem Öffnen der Verpackungseinheit häufig die Verabreichung des Mediums unterbrochen oder aufgeschoben werden muss, da der Patient wenigstens vorübergehend nicht zur Aufnahme des Mediums bereit steht. Nachteilig an der bekannten Verpackungseinheit ist in einem solchen Fall jedoch, dass diese nach dem Öffnen vom Anwender bis zur Verabreichung gehalten werden muss, da andererseits das Medium aus der Kammer austritt.In particular, in applications in the field of veterinary or children's medicine, however, has shown that after opening the packaging unit often the administration of the medium must be interrupted or postponed, since the patient is at least temporarily not ready to receive the medium. A disadvantage of the known packaging unit in such a case, however, that after opening by the user must be kept until administration, on the other hand, the medium exits the chamber.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, bei einer gattungsgemäßen Verpackungseinheit die genannten Nachteile zu vermeiden und auch nach dem Öffnen eine Aufbewahrugsmöglichkeit vorzusehen, bei der das Medium nicht ungewollt austritt.The object of the invention is to avoid the disadvantages mentioned in a generic packaging unit and to provide a Aufbewahrugsmöglichkeit even after opening, in which the medium does not escape unintentionally.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Verpackungseinheit mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Dabei weist der Bundbereich, beispielsweise am zweiten Randabschnitt, einen Stützabschnitt auf, der von einer Ausgangsposition, in der er sich im Wesentlichen entlang des übrigen Bundbereiches erstreckt, um einen Umlenkbereich herum in eine Stützposition umlenkbar ist. Bei diesem Umlenken wird der Stützabschnitt von der Öffnungseinrichtung weg geschwenkt. In der Stützposition bildet der Stützabschnitt dann zusammen mit dem ersten Randabschnitt zueinander beabstandete Standmittel, über die die Verpackungseinheit auf einer Stellfläche abstellbar ist. In Folge der zuvorigen Beabstandung des Stützabschnittes von der Öffnungseinrichtung ist diese dabei von der Stellfläche weg, das heißt nach oben gerichtet. Die Standmittel können dabei je nach Profilierung des ersten Randabschnittes und des Stützabschnittes durch wenigstens drei Stützpunkte, durch zwei Stützlinien oder durch eine Stützlinie und wenigstens einen Stützpunkt gebildet sein.This object is achieved by a packaging unit having the features of claim 1. In this case, the collar region, for example, on the second edge portion, a support portion which is deflected from a starting position in which it extends substantially along the other waistband area, around a deflection around in a supporting position. In this deflection, the support portion is pivoted away from the opening means. In the support position, the support portion then forms, together with the first edge portion, spaced-apart support means by means of which the packaging unit can be placed on a footprint. As a result of the previous spacing of the support portion of the opening means this is away from the footprint, that is directed upward. Depending on the profiling of the first edge portion and the support portion, the support means may be formed by at least three support points, by two support lines or by a support line and at least one support point.

In jedem Fall kann somit die Verpackungseinheit zunächst eine beispielsweise für die Lagerung oder den Transport geeignete, möglichst kompakte Ausgangsposition einnehmen. Nach dem Öffnen kann dann die Stützposition eingestellt werden, in der die Verpackungseinheit in einer statisch bestimmten und dadurch stabilen Weise in einer Lage abgestellt werden kann, in der die Öffnungseinrichtung in Schwerkraftrichtung oberhalb der Kammer angeordnet ist. In dieser Lage der Verpackungseinheit kann somit trotz geöffneter Öffnungseinrichtung kein Medium austreten.In any case, the packaging unit can thus initially occupy an as compact as possible starting position, for example, for storage or transport. After opening, the support position can then be adjusted, in which the packaging unit can be parked in a statically determined and thus stable manner in a position in which the opening device is arranged in the direction of gravity above the chamber. In this location the Packaging unit can thus escape despite opening the opening device no medium.

In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist der Umlenkbereich plastisch verformbar ausgeführt, wodurch der Stützabschnitt nach dem Umlenken in die Stützposition in dieser verharrt, was wiederum ein sicheres Abstellen der Verpakkungseinheit ermöglicht.In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the deflection region is designed to be plastically deformable, whereby the support portion remains in the support position after deflection into the support position, which in turn enables a safe shutdown of the packaging unit.

Zudem ist es günstig, wenn der Stützabschnitt in eine Stützposition umlenkbar ist, in der zwischen dem Stützabschnitt und einem durch den ersten Randabschnitt begrenzten Stellabschnitt des Bundbereiches ein Stützwinkel eingeschlossen wird, der weniger als 140° beträgt. Hierdurch kann gewährleistet werden, dass die Kammer mit der Öffnungseinrichtung beim Abstellen auf einer Stellfläche eine ausreichend nach oben geneigte Lage einnimmt, in der auch bei geöffneter Öffnungseinrichtung kein Medium aus der Kammer austritt.In addition, it is favorable if the support section can be deflected into a support position in which a support angle which is less than 140 ° is enclosed between the support section and a control section of the collar area delimited by the first edge section. In this way it can be ensured that the chamber with the opening device when parking on a footprint occupies a sufficiently inclined upward position in which no medium exits from the chamber even when the opening device is open.

Vorteilhafterweise ist der Stützabschnitt durch eine linienförmige Materialschwächung vom übrigen Bundbereich getrennt. Diese weist ein zum Außenrand beabstandetes erstes Ende auf, an dem der Umlenkbereich zum Außenrand hin herstellbar ist. Hierdurch kann der Stützabschnitt in komfortabler Weise von der Stützposition entfernt werden. Zudem kann durch die gewählte Position des ersten Endes dabei eine besonders günstige Lage des Umlenkbereiches vorbestimmt werden.Advantageously, the support portion is separated by a linear material weakening from the rest of the waistband area. This has a first end spaced from the outer edge, on which the deflection region can be produced towards the outer edge. As a result, the support portion can be removed in a comfortable manner from the support position. In addition, a particularly favorable position of the deflection region can be predetermined by the selected position of the first end.

Zudem ist es günstig, wenn sich die Materialschwächung U-förmig um die Öffnungseinrichtung herum erstreckt und sie neben dem ersten Ende ein ebenfalls zum Außenrand beabstandetes zweites Ende aufweist, an dem nun ein zweiter Teil des Umlenkbereiches zum Außenrand hin herstellbar ist. Auf diese Weise steht ein relativ breiter Stützabschnitt zur Verfügung, der ein besonders stabiles Abstellen der Verpackungseinheit ermöglicht. Zudem kann der Stützabschnitt bei dieser Ausführungsform in der Ausgangsposition als Schutzeinrichtung der Öffnungseinrichtung dienen, um beispielsweise ein unbeabsichtigtes Öffnen derselben zu verhindern.In addition, it is favorable if the weakening of the material extends in a U-shaped manner around the opening device and, besides the first end, also has a second end which is likewise spaced from the outer edge and on which a second part of the deflection region can now be produced towards the outer edge. In this way, a relatively wide support section is available, which allows a particularly stable parking of the packaging unit. In addition, in this embodiment, in the starting position, the support section can serve as the protective device of the opening device in order to prevent, for example, unintentional opening thereof.

Vorteilhafterweise weist das erste Ende und das zweite Ende jeweils einen Abstand zum Außenrand auf, der wenigstens 10% einer Quererstreckung der Verpackungseinheit auf Höhe der beiden Enden beträgt. Dabei steht die Quererstreckung senkrecht zu einer Längserstreckung zwischen dem ersten Randabschnitt und einem von diesem abgewandten zweiten Randabschnitt. Durch den vorgesehenen Mindestabstand der beiden Enden wird einerseits sichergestellt, dass insbesondere bei mehrfachem Umlenken zwischen Ausgangsposition und Stützposition kein Riß im Umlenkbereich entsteht. Andererseits kann bei einer derartigen Mindesterstreckung des Umlenkbereiches die plastische Verformbarkeit desselben mittels relativ vieler Materialien umgesetzt werden.Advantageously, the first end and the second end each have a distance to the outer edge, which amounts to at least 10% of a transverse extent of the packaging unit at the level of the two ends. In this case, the transverse extent is perpendicular to a longitudinal extent between the first edge portion and a second edge portion facing away from this. On the one hand, it is ensured by the provided minimum distance between the two ends that, in particular with multiple deflections between the starting position and the supporting position, there is no crack in the deflection region. On the other hand, with such a minimum extension of the deflection region, the plastic deformability thereof can be implemented by means of relatively many materials.

Ferner ist es günstig, wenn wenigstens das erste Ende bezüglich der Längserstreckung in einem mittleren Drittel, insbesondere genau in der Mitte, der Verpakkungseinheit angeordnet ist, wodurch ein stabiles Abstützen der Verpackungseinheit möglich ist.Furthermore, it is favorable if at least the first end is arranged with respect to the longitudinal extent in a middle third, in particular exactly in the middle, of the packaging unit, whereby a stable support of the packaging unit is possible.

Vorteilhafterweise ist die Materialschwächung über ihre gesamte Länge durch einen Schnitt gebildet, so dass der Stützabschnitt besonders leicht von der Ausgangsposition weg bewegt werden kann.Advantageously, the material weakening over its entire length is formed by a cut, so that the support portion can be moved particularly easily away from the starting position.

Dabei ist es günstig, wenn entlang des Schnittes mehrere Haftpunkte vorgesehen sind, mittels denen der Stützabschnitt relativ stabil und sicher in der Ausgangsposition gehalten wird.It is advantageous if several adhesion points are provided along the section, by means of which the support portion is held relatively stable and secure in the starting position.

In einer hierzu alternativen Ausführungsform ist die Materialschwächung durch eine Perforation gebildet, wodurch einerseits eine stabile Lage des Stützabschnittes in der Ausgangsposition gewährleistet und andererseits ein komfortables Umlenken in die Stützposition ermöglicht wird.In an alternative embodiment, the material weakening is formed by a perforation, whereby on the one hand ensures a stable position of the support portion in the starting position and on the other hand, a comfortable deflection is made possible in the support position.

Ferner ist es günstig, wenn die Öffnungseinrichtung durch eine Verjüngung der Kammer gebildet ist, an der eine Sollbruchlinie zur Herstellung einer Öffnung vorgesehen ist. Hierdurch kann die Verpackungseinheit besonders komfortabel und ohne benötigte Hilfsmittel geöffnet werden.Furthermore, it is favorable if the opening device is formed by a taper of the chamber, on which a predetermined breaking line is provided for producing an opening is. As a result, the packaging unit can be opened particularly comfortably and without the need for aids.

Dabei ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn sich die Sollbruchlinie zwischen einander gegenüber liegenden Abschnitten der U-förmigen Materialschwächung erstreckt. Auf diese Weise ist die Sollbruchlinie in der Ausgangsposition durch den Stützabschnitt gegen Beschädigungen geschützt.It is particularly advantageous if the predetermined breaking line extends between mutually opposite sections of the U-shaped material weakening. In this way, the predetermined breaking line is protected in the initial position by the support portion against damage.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform sind am Stützabschnitt zusätzliche Stabilisierungsmittel vorgesehen, die beispielsweise durch tiefgeformte Bereiche gebildet sind und dem Stützabschnitt eine höhere Stabilität verleihen.In a further advantageous embodiment, additional stabilizing means are provided on the support section, which are formed, for example, by deep-shaped regions and give the support section a higher stability.

Ferner ist es besonders günstig, wenn eine peelfähige Folie vorgesehen ist, die am Stützabschnitt und am übrigen Bundbereich anhaftet. Hierdurch ist es möglich, die Verpackungseinheit kindersicher auszuführen.Furthermore, it is particularly advantageous if a peelable film is provided, which adheres to the support portion and the rest of the waistband area. This makes it possible to carry out the packaging child safe.

In der dargestellten Ausführungsform weist das erste flächige Element 6, wie insbesondere aus Fig. 2 zu entnehmen ist, eine bauchige Kontur 10 auf, die eine mittels des zweiten flächigen Elementes 8 verschlossene Kammer 12 bildet, in der das Medium 4 gespeichert ist.In the illustrated embodiment, the first planar element 6, as in particular Fig. 2 can be seen, a bulbous contour 10, which forms a sealed by means of the second sheet-like element 8 chamber 12 in which the medium 4 is stored.

Um die Kammer 12 herum bilden die beiden Elemente 6, 8 einen Bundbereich 14, in dem sie miteinander verbunden sind. Die Verbindung kann dabei beispielsweise durch Kleben, Verschweißen oder Siegeln hergestellt werden. Nach Außen hin ist der Bundbereich 14, wie auch die Verpackungseinheit 2 insgesamt, durch einen Außenrand 16 begrenzt. Dieser weist bezogen auf die dargestellte Lage der Verpackungseinrichtung 2 im Raum einen unterhalb der Kammer 12 angeordneten ersten Randabschnitt 18 sowie einen vom ersten Randabschnitt 18 abgewandten und oberhalb der Kammer 12 angeordneten zweiten Randabschnitt 20 auf.Around the chamber 12 around the two elements 6, 8 form a collar portion 14 in which they are interconnected. The connection can be made for example by gluing, welding or sealing. Outwardly, the collar portion 14, as well as the packaging unit 2 in total, limited by an outer edge 16. This has, based on the illustrated position of the packaging device 2 in space a arranged below the chamber 12 first edge portion 18 and a side facing away from the first edge portion 18 and above the chamber 12 arranged second edge portion 20.

Zur kontrollierten Abgabe des Mediums 4 ist an der Kammer 12 eine Öffnungseinrichtung 22 vorgesehen, die einen Austrittspfad 24 bildet, der mit der Kammer 12 verbunden und dem zweiten Randabschnitt 20 zugewandt ist. Über diesen Austrittspfad 24 kann das Medium 4 aus der Kammer 12 austreten.For controlled delivery of the medium 4, an opening device 22 is provided on the chamber 12, which forms an exit path 24, which is connected to the chamber 12 and the second edge portion 20 faces. About this exit path 24, the medium 4 can escape from the chamber 12.

Die Öffnungseinrichtung 22 ist hierzu durch eine Verjüngung der Kammer 12 gebildet, an der eine Sollbruchlinie 26, beispielsweise in Form einer Rillung, vorgesehen ist. Alternativ hierzu kann die Öffnungseinrichtung 22 auch durch andere bekannte und geeignete Öffnungsmittel gebildet sein.The opening device 22 is for this purpose formed by a taper of the chamber 12, on which a predetermined breaking line 26, for example in the form of a scoring, is provided. Alternatively, the opening means 22 may be formed by other known and suitable opening means.

Die Sollbruchlinie 26 erstreckt sich zwischen zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Abschnitten 28 einer insgesamt mit 30 bezeichneten Materialschwächung. Diese erstreckt sich beabstandet zum Außenrand 16 U-förmig um die Öffnungseinrichtung 22 herum und ist beispielhaft durch einen Schnitt gebildet, der sich über ihre gesamte Länge erstreckt. Auf diese Weise begrenzt die Materialschwächung 30 einen am zweiten Randabschnitt 20 angeordneten und ebenfalls im Wesentlichen U-förmigen Stützabschnitt 32 des Bundbereiches 14.The predetermined breaking line 26 extends between two opposite sections 28 of a total of 30 designated material weakening. This extends spaced from the outer edge 16 in a U-shape around the opening means 22 around and is exemplified by a section which extends over its entire length. In this way, the material weakening 30 limits a support section 32 of the collar region 14 which is arranged on the second edge section 20 and which is likewise essentially U-shaped.

Der Stützabschnitt 32 kann aus der in Fig. 1 und 2 dargestellten Ausgangsposition, in der er im Wesentlichen in Ebene des übrigen Bundbereiches 14 angeordnet ist, in eine Stützposition umgelenkt werden, wie sie in Fig. 3 dargestellt ist. Hierbei bildet sich an einem ersten Ende 34 und einem zweiten Ende 36 der Materialschwächung 30 jeweils zum Außenrand 16 hin ein Umlenkbereich 38 aus, der sich plastisch verformt. Dabei sind die Enden 34, 36 der Materialschwächung 30 derart positioniert, dass sie zum Außenrand einen Abstand a aufweisen, der wenigstens 10% einer Quererstreckung q der Verpackungseinheit 2 auf Höhe der Enden 34, 36 beträgt.The support portion 32 may consist of the in Fig. 1 and 2 illustrated starting position, in which it is arranged substantially in the plane of the remaining collar portion 14, are deflected into a support position, as in Fig. 3 is shown. In this case, at a first end 34 and a second end 36 of the material weakening 30, a deflection region 38, which deforms plastically, forms in each case toward the outer edge 16. In this case, the ends 34, 36 of the material weakening 30 are positioned such that they have a distance a from the outer edge, which amounts to at least 10% of a transverse extent q of the packaging unit 2 at the level of the ends 34, 36.

Ferner sind die Enden 34, 36 bezüglich einer zur Quererstreckung q senkrecht stehenden Längserstreckung I, zwischen dem ersten Randabschnitt 18 und dem zweiten Randabschnitt 20 in einem mittleren Drittel mD, vorzugsweise genau in der Mitte M, angeordnet.Further, the ends 34, 36 with respect to a longitudinal extent I perpendicular to the transverse extension q, between the first edge portion 18 and the second edge portion 20 in a middle third mD, preferably exactly in the middle M, respectively.

Beim Umlenken in die Stützposition ist der Stützabschnitt 32 dabei in eine Position verbringbar, in der er mit einem Stellabschnitt 40 des Bundbereiches 14 am ersten Randabschnitt 18 einen Stützwinkel w einschließt, der unterhalb von 140 °, vorzugsweise im Bereich von 60° bis 120°, liegt.When deflecting into the supporting position, the support section 32 can be brought into a position in which it encloses a support angle w at a first edge section 18 with a positioning section 40 of the collar region 14, which is below 140 °, preferably in the range from 60 ° to 120 °, lies.

Der erste Randabschnitt 18 und der zweite Randabschnitt 20, der ein freies Ende des Stützabschnittes 32 bildet, fungieren in dieser Stützposition nun als zwei zueinander beabstandete Standmittel in Form von Stützlinien SL. Mittels diesen ist die Verpackungseinheit auf einer Stellfläche 42 abstellbar, wobei die Öffnungseinrichtung 22 bezüglich einer Schwerkraftrichtung G nach oben gerichtet ist.The first edge portion 18 and the second edge portion 20, which forms a free end of the support portion 32, function in this support position now as two spaced apart support means in the form of support lines SL. By means of these, the packaging unit can be placed on a footprint 42, wherein the opening device 22 is directed upward with respect to a direction of gravity G.

Alternativ zu den dargestellten geraden Randabschnitten 18, 20 ist es auch möglich wenigstens einen derselben mit einem Profil zu versehen, mittels dem statt der Stützlinie SL wenigstens ein Stützpunkt SP ausgebildet wird, wie durch strichpunktierte Linien dargestellt.As an alternative to the illustrated straight edge sections 18, 20, it is also possible to provide at least one of them with a profile, by means of which instead of the support line SL at least one support point SP is formed, as shown by dotted lines.

Wie aus Fig. 4 zu entnehmen ist, können entlang der als Schnitt ausgeführten Materialschwächung 30 mehrere Haftpunkte 44 vorgesehen sein, die beispielsweise durch ein nachträglich aufgebrachtes Klebemittel gebildet sind.How out Fig. 4 it can be seen, 30 may be provided along the running as a cut material weakening several adhesion points 44, which are formed for example by a subsequently applied adhesive.

Alternativ hierzu kann die Materialschwächung 30 aber auch durch eine Perforation 46 gebildet sein, wie in Fig. 5 dargestellt.Alternatively, however, the material weakening 30 may also be formed by a perforation 46, as in FIG Fig. 5 shown.

Die Figur 6 zeigt eine weiter Ausführungsform der Verpackungseinheit 2 bei der am Bundbereich 14 zusätzliche Stabilisierungsmittel 48 vorgesehen sind, die den Stützabschnitt 32 aussteifen und dadurch dessen Biegesteifigkeit erhöhen. Die Stabilisierungsmittel 48 sind dabei beispielhaft durch tiefgeformte Bereiche gebildet, die sich U-förmig um die Öffnungseinrichtung 22 herum erstrecken und diese dadurch gegen unbeabsichtigtes Öffnen schützen.The FIG. 6 shows a further embodiment of the packaging unit 2 in which the collar portion 14 additional stabilizing means 48 are provided which stiffen the support portion 32 and thereby increase its flexural rigidity. The stabilizing means 48 are exemplified by deep-shaped areas which extend in a U-shape around the opening means 22 around and thereby protect them against accidental opening.

Die Fig. 7 und 8 zeigen eine weiter Ausführungsform der Verpackungseinheit 2, bei der eine abpeelbare Folie 50 vorgesehen ist, die an einer durch das zweite flächige Element 8 gebildeten Rückseite 52 vorgesehen ist. Diese Folie 50 erstreckt sich sowohl über den Stützabschnitt 32 als auch über Teile des übrigen Bundbereiches 14, insbesondere im Bereich der Öffnungseinrichtung 22, und haftet an beiden an.The FIGS. 7 and 8 show a further embodiment of the packaging unit 2, in which a peelable film 50 is provided, which at one by the second flat element 8 formed rear side 52 is provided. This film 50 extends both over the support section 32 and over parts of the remaining collar region 14, in particular in the region of the opening device 22, and adheres to both.

Um zum Öffnen und Abstellen der Verpackungseinheit 2, wie oben beschrieben, den Stützabschnitt 32 um die Umlenkbereiche 38 herum umlenken zu können, muss zunächst die Folie 50 abgezogen werden, wie in Fig. 8 dargestellt. Hierzu ist an der Folie 50 eine nicht anhaftende Abziehlasche 54 vorgesehen.In order to be able to deflect the support section 32 about the deflection areas 38 in order to open and deposit the packaging unit 2, as described above, the film 50 must first be pulled off, as in FIG Fig. 8 shown. For this purpose, a non-adhesive Abziehlasche 54 is provided on the film 50.
