Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging comprising an at least substantially box-like container, which container comprises a reclosable assembly of a bottom element and a window element, which together enclose a product space which is intended an adapted to receive at least one product therein, in particular a food product, wherein the bottom element comprises a bottom, from either side of which at least parts of opposite first side walls of the container extend pivotally, and wherein the window element comprises an at least substantially transparent top sheet, from which at least one at least substantially transparent further side wall of the container extends, which further side wall extends at least between said at least parts of the first side walls and herein reaches at least substantially to the bottom.
  • This known packaging comprises a cardboard bottom element with a fully transparent window element.
  • the bottom element comprises four upright walls, a frontal wall of which extends over only a limited part of the height of the packaging.
  • the window element is connected pivotally to a rear wall of the bottom element by means of a set of connecting protrusions which extend therefrom and are received in fitting manner in a set of openings in the rear wall.
  • Three depending walls of the window element drop over corresponding walls of the bottom element in order to close the packaging.
  • a frontal side and a top side of the packaging are thus largely or wholly formed by the transparent walls of the window element so that a content of the packaging is readily visible.
  • both CH 537 321 and EP 1 683 726 describe a packaging of the type described in the preamble of appended claim 1.
  • the packaging comprises a bottom element and a transparent window element which can be assembled to define a product space in which a product can be displayed.
  • the present invention has for its object, among others, to provide a packaging which provides a good view into the product space thereof but does not have these and other drawbacks of the known packaging, or at least does so to a significantly lesser extent.
  • both at least parts of the first side walls of the container are freely pivotable relative to the bottom, these parts can be laid flat for the purpose of an unobstructed access to the product space.
  • both at least parts of the first side walls are as it were pivoted inward like wings in order to enclose the window element therebetween.
  • the container displays the product space on at least this side, in addition to the view into the product space provided by the top sheet. A product received in the packaging, is thus readily visible from at least two sides of the container.
  • the packaging according to the invention has the feature that the bottom element and the window element are fully releasable from each other.
  • the window element can herein be left off completely while a product is placed in the product space and the packaging is further assembled as desired. The window element does not therefore impede these operations on the product at all.
  • the window element with the further side walls can finally be placed over the product, after which the packaging is closed by closing both at least parts of the first side walls round the window element.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the packaging has the feature according to the invention that further side walls, with which the window element supports on the bottom, extend at least substantially on all sides from the upper surface of the window element.
  • the further side walls extending over a whole periphery of the window element impart an increased stability and rigidity to this part of the packaging, which are also manifested in an increased stability and form retention of the assembly as a whole.
  • the packaging according to the invention is moreover characterized in that the at least parts of the first walls comprise at least one folded part on a free edge on at least substantially all sides.
  • the window element is thus not only received and enclosed under, but also wholly between, such folded parts on the first side walls, this further enhancing their mutual fixation and connection.
  • the one or more folded parts on the first side walls serve primarily to hold the packaging together in a closed form, wherein the window part lies enclosed between the two first side walls.
  • the packaging is characterized here in that the first side walls of the container with the folded parts extending therefrom lie against adjacent edge parts of the window element in at least practically form-fitting manner.
  • the form fitting between the folded parts and the edge parts of the window element here ensures a sufficient fit and friction between the first side walls with the folded parts extending therefrom on the one hand and the edge parts of the window part on the other so that, once in a closed situation, the packaging will retain this situation without further means.
  • the packaging according to the invention is characterized in that closing means are provided between the at least parts of the first side walls and the window element.
  • the closing means provide an option in practice of fixing the Packaging in a closed situation.
  • the packaging according to the invention has the feature here that the closing means comprise a reclosable closure.
  • the closing means here not only provide for a fixation of the container in a closed situation, but also provide the option of reclosing a packaging once it has been opened, for instance for at least temporary storage.
  • reclosable fixation means is present in a further particular embodiment of the packaging, which is characterized according to the invention in that the reclosable closure comprises manually liftable snap means with a snap member and a fitting snap space in respectively the window element and the at least parts of the first side walls of the container, or vice versa.
  • the snap means can here be provided such that the snap member snaps into the snap space automatically without further operations when the packaging is closed. By lifting this snap connection the packaging can then be reopened and subsequently reclosed as desired.
  • the packaging according to the invention is characterized here in that the snap member comprises a resilient tongue which extends from one of the window element and both of the at least parts of the first side walls of the container and which snaps into a corresponding snap space in another of the window element and both of the at least parts of the first side walls of the container.
  • the snap member can be recessed wholly from the material of the two parts of the packaging so that no additional components or significant processing steps are required for this purpose.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the packaging according to the invention has the feature that the closing means comprise a breakable closure.
  • the breakable closure thus forms a seal which immediately indicates whether a packaging has already been opened.
  • An intact breakable closure thus provides a guarantee that the product in the product space has not been exposed to third parties. This is particularly important in the case of comestibles and other food products.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the packaging according to the invention has the feature that upright folded parts extend on opposite sides from the bottom between the two first side walls.
  • the upright folded parts impart bending strength and thereby an increased rigidity to the bottom element, and moreover covers a possible gap between the bottom and the window element placed thereon.
  • the packaging according to the invention has the feature that the bottom element is formed at least partly from cardboard.
  • Cardboard is an easily processed raw material and can moreover be printed on extremely well, whereby product data and decorations can advantageously be printed on the bottom element.
  • Cardboard has moreover been found to project a traditional and therefore luxury appearance to the likely customers for food products, which contributes significantly toward a positive perception of the product packaged therein.
  • the packaging according to the invention is characterized here in that the bottom element is folded completely from a cardboard blank. The bottom element can thus be supplied flat, and therefore compactly, and be assembled on the spot.
  • a further particular embodiment of the packaging according to the invention has the feature that at least one of the first side walls of the container comprises a window.
  • a window in at least one of the longitudinal walls a view into the product space can also be provided from this side. If the window element falls behind the relevant first side wall with a closed, transparent wall, the window can be open.
  • a further particular embodiment of the packaging according to the invention advantageously has the feature that the window element is formed wholly from a transparent plastic, and more in particular that the plastic is taken from a group comprising polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polylactide acid (PLA), polyester, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polycarbonate (PC).
  • the window element here provides an unobstructed view into the product space on all sides and moreover enhances the luxury appearance of the packaging.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the packaging according to the invention has the feature here that the window element is formed integrally, and more particularly that the window element comprises a thermoformed part. The window element can thus be fully assembled in one process run and has no possibly impairing seams.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the packaging according to the invention has the feature that the window element can be nested in a similar window element.
  • a particular embodiment of the packaging according to the invention has the feature that one of the at least parts of the first side walls of the container is connected fixedly to an adjacent wall of the window element.
  • the window element and the bottom element are here (pre)assembled and firmly connected to each other on the relevant first side wall side, while the assembly is releasable on an opposite side to enable the container to be pivoted open if desired.
  • the packaging of figures 1A-2E comprises a bottom element 10 with a bottom 11, which in this example takes a square form with sides of about 20 centimetres although, if desired, it can also have another polygonal form and/or dimensions
  • the bottom element comprises a set of first side walls 12 of the final packaging together with a set of folded parts 13 extending therebetween and formed integrally thereon in the form of a blank of cardboard, see figures 1A and 2A .
  • Arranged between bottom 11 and respectively the first side walls 12 and folded parts 13 are folding seams or fold lines 14 so that first side walls 12 and folded parts 13 are foldable and pivotable relative to bottom 11.
  • the packaging further comprises a fully transparent plastic window element 20 which is placed in the manner of a bell-jar in fully releasable manner on bottom 11, see figures 1B and 2B .
  • Window element 20 here comprises a transparent top sheet 21, the form of which is adjusted to the form of bottom 11 and from which in this example about 5-10 centimetre walls 22,23 extend all around along the whole periphery, these walls reaching as far as bottom 11 in order to thereby support thereon.
  • the window element is formed integrally in this example.
  • window element 20 use is made here of a suitable transparent plastic, such as for instance polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polylactide acid (PLA), polyester, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and PC, which can be processed from a film into the desired end product in relatively simple manner in a thermoforming process.
  • PLA herein has the additional advantage of being biodegradable.
  • the window element 20 of this example comprises such a thermoformed part, which has been manufactured as one seamless whole from transparent polycarbonate by vacuum-forming in a single process run at increased temperature. It is otherwise noted that, where reference is made in the present application to transparency, this must be understood to mean different forms of translucence wherein the relevant component may or may not be coloured or is optionally only partially transparent.
  • the window element widens outward to a certain extent in downward direction from top sheet 21, whereby window element 20 can be nested with one or more similar window elements, which is shown by way of illustration in figure 1E .
  • This widening of the window element amounts in this example to about 1 centimetre and runs uniformly on all sides along the height of side walls 22,23. Steps can however optionally also be provided therein to give the whole a different appearance as desired, adapted to the content to be packaged, and a greater or lesser degree of widening can be applied as desired.
  • a thus achieved nestability of the window element will in any case limit the transport and storage space necessary therefor.
  • first side walls 12 comprise folded parts 15,16 which are directed toward each other and which extend therefrom in a transverse direction on an outer end.
  • folded parts 15 close fittingly over an edge part of top sheet 21, while folded parts 16 also laterally enclose an edge part of window element 20,22 in fitting manner when first side walls 12 are closed round window element 20, as shown in figure 1C .
  • Folded parts 13 on bottom 11 here fall inside folded parts 16 of the first side walls so as to also enclose the window element in a transverse direction and to close a possible gap with bottom 11.
  • folded parts 13 thus impart an increased bending strength and rigidity to the bottom element, which enhances the load-bearing capacity thereof.
  • the relatively precise fit, and therefore form-fitting, of the first side walls 12 which form part of bottom element 10 and are closed on either side over opposite edge parts of window element 20 provide a manually liftable but always reclosable mutual fixation, wherein the assembly retains the closed situation shown in figures 1D and 2C .
  • This situation is initially closed by means of a set of (self-)adhesive seals 25 adhered partly to a folded part 15 and partly to top sheet 21.
  • the seals comprise a breakable closure in the form of a tear seam 26 which, once a packaging has been opened, unmistakably indicates it as such.
  • the seals can otherwise also be arranged elsewhere between a folded part 15,16 and window element 20, or a breakable closure with or without tear seam can be provided in other manner.
  • bottom element 10 and window element 20 provides a box-shaped container with a set of first side walls 12 and a set of further side walls 22 situated therebetween, which together enclose a product space 30, which is further bounded by top sheet 21 and bottom 11.
  • a product space 30 which is further bounded by top sheet 21 and bottom 11.
  • the product space is here sufficiently visible from both the top side and laterally in order to present a packaged product effectively.
  • the container hereby provides a reclosable packaging which can be applied for products of diverse nature, the packaging is particularly advantageous for food products, such as pastry and other confectionery, which, particularly due to their appearance, can stimulate consumer interest.
  • FIG. 3A-3E A second exemplary embodiment of the packaging according to the invention is shown in figures 3A-3E in successive stages of use.
  • the packaging of this example is largely the same as that of the foregoing example, be it that reclosable closing means are provided in this example between bottom element 10 and window element 20.
  • the closing means here comprise a manually liftable snap connection between a snap member 27 provided on top sheet 21 of window element 20 and a fitting snap space under a set of free-hanging tongues 17 on an inner side of folded part 15 of first side walls 12, see in particular figures 3C and 3D .
  • Snap member 27 here comprises a resilient tongue which has been recessed out of the material of the top sheet, while tongues 17 of the bottom element have been folded out of a joint cardboard blank. No additional components or processing steps are thus required for the snap connection.
  • bottom element 10 is folded and assembled from a cardboard blank.
  • Window element 20 is placed on bottom 11 of the bottom element, see figure 3C , wherein resilient tongues 27 stand upright from top sheet 21.
  • first side walls 12,15,16, which extend from bottom 11 are closed round the window element as shown in figures 3D and 3E , tongues 27 are initially folded inward and eventually snap behind and partly under wings 17. The packaging is now closed and retains this situation.
  • the packaging can be opened by moving the side walls slightly toward each other so that tongues 27 are released from wings 17, and then slightly lifting and moving the walls apart.
  • the packaging can then be reclosed repeatedly.
  • the packaging can be supplemented with a breakable closure, such as for instance the seals of the foregoing example, in order to guarantee the integrity of the content to a user.
