Advantageous embodiments with expedient developments of the invention are specified in the respective dependent claims, wherein advantageous embodiments of the package as advantageous embodiments of the blank and to look at the other way around.

Eine erfindungsgemäße Verpackung aus Karton, Papier oder dergleichen, umfasst eine Vorderwand und eine Rückwand, mindestens jeweils zwei die Vorder- und Rückwand verbindende Seitenwände zur Ausbildung von Stirnseiten der Verpackung, wobei die Verpackung in Form eines prismatischen Körpers entlang einer Längsachse ausgebildet ist, eine Bodenkonstruktion umfassend mindestens eine an der Vorder- oder Rückwand angelenkte Bodenlasche zum bodenseitigen Verschluss der Verpackung und eine Deckelkonstruktion umfassend mindestens eine an der Vorder- oder Rückwand angelenkte Deckellasche zum deckelseitigen Verschluss der Verpackung, wobei die Bodenkonstruktion und/oder die Deckelkonstruktion zumindest eine an einem bodenseitigen und/oder deckelseitigen Ende zumindest einer stirnseitigen Seitenwand angelenkte Staublasche umfasst. Dabei weist die Staublasche mindestens eine Rastnase auf, wobei die Rastnase derart ausgebildet ist, dass sie in Schließstellung der Staublasche an der Boden- und/oder Deckellasche und/oder der Vorderwand und/oder der Rückwand rastend anliegt. Durch die Ausbildung mindestens einer Rastnase, die in der Schließstellung der Staublasche an den entsprechenden Bereichen der Boden- und/oder Deckellasche und/oder der Vorderwand und/oder der Rückwand der Verpackung rastend anliegt, ist gewährleistet, dass die Verpackung ihre Form behält. Da die Rastnase in Schließstellung der Staublasche rastend anliegt, entsteht ein fixierter Kontakt zwischen der Rastnase und den entsprechenden Bereichen der Boden- und/oder Deckellasche und/oder der Vorderwand und/oder der Rückwand der Verpackung. Insbesondere ist dies beim automatischen, maschinellen Aufrichten und Befüllen der Verpackung wichtig. Nur bei formstabilen Verpackungen ist eine einfache und sichere maschinelle Befüllung mit insbesondere schütt-, pulver- und/oder rieselfähigen Lebensmitteln gewährleistet. Ein derartiges rastendes Anliegen und der damit entstehende fixierte Kontakt der Staublasche an den entsprechenden Bereichen der Boden- und/oder Deckellasche und/oder der Vorderwand und/oder der Rückwand der Verpackung ist aus dem Stand der Technik, insbesondere aus den im Vorhergehenden genannten Druckschriften nicht bekannt oder nahegelegt. Zudem ist die Rastnase derart ausgebildet, dass sie in Schließstellung in einer in der Boden- und/oder Deckellasche ausgebildeten Ausnehmung verrastet. Unter Ausnehmung ist dabei jegliche Öffnung zu verstehen, die zur Verrastung der Rastnase geeignet ist. Zum Beispiel kann die Ausnehmung bzw. Öffnung rund, oval, halbkreisförmig, vieleckig oder schlitzartig ausgebildet sein. Auch andere Formen der Öffnung bzw. Ausnehmung sind denkbar. Des Weiteren ist diese Ausnehmung im Übergangsbereich zwischen der Vorder- und/oder der Rückwand und der entsprechenden Boden- und/oder Deckellasche ausgebildet. Dabei kann die Ausnehmung als eine der Rastnase zugewandte und zur Rastnase hin offene Ausnehmung bzw. Öffnung oder als eine im Übergangsbereich zwischen der Vorder- und/oder der Rückwand und der entsprechenden Boden- und/oder Deckellasche ausgebildete, geschlossene Ausnehmung, d.h. vollständige Öffnung ausgebildet sein. Die Ausbildung der genannten Ausnehmung zur Verrastung der Rastnase erhöht zusätzlich die Formstabilität der Verpackung.A packaging of cardboard, paper or the like according to the invention comprises a front wall and a rear wall, at least two side walls connecting the front and rear walls for forming end faces of the packaging, the packaging being in the form of a prismatic body along a longitudinal axis, a bottom construction comprising at least one hinged to the front or rear wall bottom tab for bottom closure of the package and a lid construction comprising at least one hinged to the front or rear wall cover flap for lid-side closure of the package, wherein the Floor construction and / or the lid construction comprises at least one attached to a bottom and / or lid-side end of at least one end-side sidewall dust flap. In this case, the dust flap on at least one latching lug, wherein the latching lug is designed such that it rests latching in the closed position of the dust flap on the bottom and / or cover flap and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall. By forming at least one locking lug, which rests in the closed position of the dust flap on the corresponding areas of the bottom and / or lid flap and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall of the packaging, ensures that the packaging retains its shape. Since the detent latchingly engages in the closed position of the dust flap, there is a fixed contact between the detent nose and the corresponding areas of the bottom and / or lid flap and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall of the packaging. In particular, this is important in the automatic, automatic straightening and filling of the packaging. Only with dimensionally stable packaging a simple and safe mechanical filling with particular pourable, powdery and / or free-flowing food is guaranteed. Such a latching concern and the resulting fixed contact of the dust flap on the corresponding areas of the bottom and / or lid flap and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall of the package is not from the prior art, in particular from the above-mentioned documents known or suggested. In addition, the locking lug is designed such that it locks in the closed position in a formed in the bottom and / or cover flap recess. Under recess is to be understood as any opening that is suitable for locking the locking lug. For example, the recess or opening may be round, oval, semicircular, polygonal or slot-like. Other forms of opening or recess are conceivable. Furthermore, this recess is formed in the transition region between the front and / or the rear wall and the corresponding bottom and / or cover flap. In this case, the recess facing one of the locking lug and the latching nose open Recess or opening or as in the transition region between the front and / or the rear wall and the corresponding bottom and / or cover flap formed, closed recess, ie be formed complete opening. The formation of said recess for locking the detent additionally increases the dimensional stability of the packaging.

In weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltungen der erfindungsgemäßen Verpackung ist die Rastnase derart ausgebildet, dass sie in einer Schließstellung an der oder den Seitenwänden, an der oder denen sie nicht angelenkt ist, zumindest bereichsweise aufliegt. Durch diese Ausgestaltung der Staublasche ist ein sicherer Verschluss beziehungsweise eine sichere Abdeckung im Bereich der Deckel- und/oder Bodenkonstruktion der Verpackung gewährleistet. Des Weiteren ergibt sich durch das zumindest bereichsweise Aufliegen der Staublasche auf der oder den Seitenwänden der Verpackung eine erhöhte Belastungsstabilität der Verpackung in diesen Bereichen. Derartige Verpackungen können daher problemlos übereinander gestapelt werden, was zum Beispiel bei einem Versenden auf Paletten notwendig ist. Des Weiteren können gegebenenfalls im Vergleich zu bisher bekannten Verpackungen dünnere Kartonstärken verwendet werden. Durch diese Materialeinsparung ergeben sich deutliche Kostenvorteile durch die erfindungsgemäße Verpackung. Zudem besteht die Möglichkeit, dass die Staublasche derart ausgebildet ist, dass sie in einer Schließstellung über mindestens eine Seitenwand, an der sie aufliegt, zumindest bereichsweise hinausragt. Durch das zumindest teilweise Hinausragen der Staublasche über die Seitenwand und die entsprechende Dimensionierung der Staublasche ist gewährleistet, dass diese einerseits an der Seitenwand aufliegt und andererseits diese sicher überdeckt. Auch eine mögliche seitliche Druckbelastung der erfindungsgemäßen Verpackung im Bereich der Deckel- und/oder Bodenkonstruktion führt nicht dazu, dass die Staublasche aus ihrer Auflage auf der Seitenwand verschoben wird.In further advantageous embodiments of the packaging according to the invention the locking lug is designed such that it rests at least partially in a closed position on the or the side walls on which or to which it is not articulated. This embodiment of the dust flap ensures a secure closure or a secure cover in the area of the lid and / or bottom construction of the packaging. Furthermore, as a result of the at least regionally resting of the dust flap on the side walls or the walls of the packaging, an increased loading stability of the packaging in these areas results. Such packaging can therefore be easily stacked on top of each other, which is necessary, for example, when shipping on pallets. Furthermore, thinner board thicknesses can optionally be used in comparison to previously known packages. This material saving results in significant cost advantages through the packaging according to the invention. In addition, there is the possibility that the dust flap is designed such that it protrudes in a closed position over at least one side wall, on which it rests, at least partially. Due to the at least partially protruding out of the dust flap on the side wall and the corresponding dimensioning of the dust flap is ensured that this rests on the one hand on the side wall and on the other hand, this safely covers. Also, a possible lateral pressure load of the packaging according to the invention in the area of the lid and / or bottom construction does not cause the dust flap is displaced from its support on the side wall.

In weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltungen der Verpackung umfasst die Staublasche mindestens einen ersten Abschnitt, wobei der erste Abschnitt an der entsprechenden stirnseitigen Seitenwand angelenkt ist, und derart ausgebildet ist, dass er in Schließstellung der Staublasche den durch die stirnseitig angeordneten Seitenwände gebildeten Bereich der Grundfläche überdeckt. Dadurch ist gewährleistet, dass unabhängig von der Grundfläche der prismatisch ausgebildeten Verpackung, die durch die Seitenwände gebildeten Flächen zuverlässig durch den ersten Abschnitt der Staublasche überdeckt und geschlossen werden. Dabei kann die Staublasche mindestens einen sich an den ersten Abschnitt anschließenden zweiten Abschnitt aufweisen, wobei der zweite Abschnitt derart ausgebildet ist, dass er in Schließstellung der Staublasche an den Innenseiten der Vorder- und Rückwand zumindest bereichsweise anliegt. Durch das Anliegen des zweiten Abschnitts an den Innenseiten der Vorder- und Rückwand ist der Abstand zwischen der Vorder- und Rückwand eindeutig definiert. Die Innenseiten der Vorder- und Rückwand stützen sich gegen den zweiten Abschnitt der Staublasche ab. Dies trägt zu der erhöhten Formstabilität der erfindungsgemäßen Verpackung bei. Die Angabe, dass sich der zweite Abschnitt an den ersten Abschnitt anschließt, schließt nicht aus, dass zwischen dem ersten und zweiten Bereich ein möglicherweise anders geformter Zwischenbereich ausgebildet ist. Mit anderen Worten kann sich der zweite Abschnitt direkt oder indirekt an den ersten Abschnitt anschließen. Des Weiteren besteht die Möglichkeit, dass die Rastnase(n) in dem ersten Abschnitt und/oder dem zweiten Abschnitt der Staublasche ausgebildet ist.In further advantageous embodiments of the packaging includes the Staublasche at least a first portion, wherein the first portion is hinged to the respective end-side side wall, and is formed such that it covers in the closed position of the dust flap formed by the front side side walls of the base area. This ensures that regardless of the base of the prismatic packaging, the surfaces formed by the side walls are reliably covered and closed by the first portion of the dust flap. In this case, the dust flap can have at least one second section adjoining the first section, wherein the second section is designed in such a way that, in the closed position of the dust flap, it bears against the inner sides of the front and rear walls at least in regions. By the concerns of the second section on the insides of the front and rear wall of the distance between the front and rear wall is clearly defined. The insides of the front and rear walls are supported against the second section of the dust flap. This contributes to the increased dimensional stability of the packaging according to the invention. The statement that the second section adjoins the first section does not exclude that a possibly differently shaped intermediate area is formed between the first and second area. In other words, the second section may directly or indirectly connect to the first section. Furthermore, there is the possibility that the latching lug (s) is formed in the first portion and / or the second portion of the dust flap.

In weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltungen der erfindungsgemäßen Verpackung ist eine Grundfläche der als prismatischer Körper ausgebildeten Verpackung vieleckig, insbesondere sechs-, acht-, zehn- oder zwölfeckig ausgebildet. Auch andere Formen sind denkbar.In further advantageous embodiments of the packaging according to the invention, a base surface of the packaging formed as a prismatic body is polygonal, in particular six-, eight-, ten- or twelve-sided. Other forms are conceivable.

Ein weiterer Aspekt der Erfindung betrifft einen Zuschnitt für die Herstellung einer Verpackung aus Karton, Papier oder dergleichen, umfassend über Biegelinien verbundene Vorderwand-, Rückwand- und Seitenwandelemente zur Ausbildung der Verpackung als prismatischer Formkörper in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts. Dabei umfasst der Zuschnitt mindestens eine an dem Vorder- und/oder Rückwandelement angelenkte Deckel- und/oder Bodenlasche und mindestens eine an mindestens einer Seitenwand angelenkte Staublasche. Erfindungsgemäß ist die Staublasche derart ausgebildet, dass mindestens eine Rastnase aufweist, wobei die Rastnase derart ausgebildet ist, dass sie in Schließstellung der Staublasche in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts an der Boden- und/oder Deckellasche und/oder der Vorderwand und/oder der Rückwand rastend anliegt. In gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts trägt die Rastnase zur Formstabilität der aus dem Zuschnitt gebildeten Verpackung bei. Die Seitenelemente des Zuschnitts beziehungsweise die daraus hergestellten Seitenwände der Verpackung drücken die Rastnase in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts gegen die Boden- und/oder Deckellasche und/oder die Vorderwand und/oder die Rückwand der gefalteten Verpackung. Da die Rastnase in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts und in Schließstellung der Staublasche rastend anliegt, entsteht ein fixierter Kontakt zwischen der Rastnase und den entsprechenden Bereichen der Boden- und/oder Deckellasche und/oder der Vorderwand und/oder der Rückwand der Verpackung. Durch diese Abstützung bzw. Verrastung wird die Formstabilität der gefalteten Verpackung erzielt. Zudem ist die Rastnase derart ausgebildet, dass sie in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts und in Schließstellung der Staublasche in einer in der Boden- und/oder Deckellasche ausgebildeten Ausnehmung verrasten. Diese Ausnehmung ist dabei im Übergangsbereich zwischen dem Vorder- und/oder Rückwandelement und der entsprechenden Boden- und/oder Deckellasche ausgebildet. In gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts trägt die Rastnase zur Formstabilität der aus dem Zuschnitt gebildeten Verpackung bei. Diese kann noch erhöht werden, wenn die Rastnase in der genannten Ausnehmung verrastet. Unter Ausnehmung ist dabei jegliche Öffnung zu verstehen, die zur Verrastung der Rastnase geeignet ist. Zum Beispiel kann die Ausnehmung bzw. Öffnung rund, oval, halbkreisförmig, vieleckig oder schlitzartig ausgebildet sein. Auch andere Formen der Öffnung bzw. Ausnehmung sind denkbar. Dabei kann die Ausnehmung als eine der Rastnase zugewandte und zur Rastnase hin offene Ausnehmung bzw. Öffnung oder als eine im Übergangsbereich zwischen der Vorder- und/oder der Rückwand und der entsprechenden Boden- und/oder Deckellasche ausgebildete, geschlossene Ausnehmung, d.h. vollständige Öffnung ausgebildet sein.Another aspect of the invention relates to a blank for the manufacture of a carton, paper or the like package comprising front wall, back wall and side wall panels connected by bend lines for formation the packaging as a prismatic molded body in the folded state of the blank. In this case, the blank comprises at least one hinged on the front and / or rear wall panel lid and / or bottom flap and at least one hinged on at least one side wall dust flap. According to the invention, the dust flap is designed such that it has at least one latching lug, wherein the latching lug is designed to latch in the closed position of the blank in the folded state of the blank on the bottom and / or lid flap and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall is applied. In the folded state of the blank, the latching nose contributes to the dimensional stability of the packaging formed from the blank. The side elements of the blank or the side walls of the packaging produced therefrom press the latching nose in the folded state of the blank against the bottom and / or lid flap and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall of the folded packaging. Since the locking lug rests latching in the folded state of the blank and in the closed position of the dust flap, there is a fixed contact between the latching lug and the corresponding areas of the bottom and / or lid flap and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall of the packaging. By this support or locking the dimensional stability of the folded packaging is achieved. In addition, the locking lug is designed such that it latch in the folded state of the blank and in the closed position of the dust flap in a formed in the bottom and / or cover flap recess. This recess is formed in the transition region between the front and / or rear wall element and the corresponding bottom and / or cover flap. In the folded state of the blank, the latching nose contributes to the dimensional stability of the packaging formed from the blank. This can be further increased if the detent latches in said recess. Under recess is to be understood as any opening that is suitable for locking the locking lug. For example, the recess or opening may be round, oval, semicircular, polygonal or slot-like. Other forms of opening or recess are conceivable. It can the recess as a latching nose facing and the latching nose open recess or opening or as a transitional area between the front and / or the rear wall and the corresponding bottom and / or cover flap formed, closed recess, ie be formed complete opening.

In weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltungen des erfindungsgemäßen Zuschnitts ist die Staublasche derart ausgebildet, dass sie in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts und in einer Schließstellung an der oder den Seitenelementen, an dem oder denen sie nicht angelenkt ist, zumindest bereichsweise aufliegt. Ein derartig ausgebildeter Zuschnitt gewährleistet einen sicheren Verschluss beziehungsweise eine sichere Abdeckung einer daraus hergestellten Verpackung im Bereich der Deckel- und/oder Bodenkonstruktion. Zudem führt der erfindungsgemäße Zuschnitt zu einer erhöhten Belastungsstabilität der daraus hergestellten Verpackung in den Bereichen der Deckel- und/oder Bodenkonstruktion. Zudem kann die Staublasche derart ausgebildet sein, dass sie in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts und in einer Schließstellung über mindestens ein Seitenelement, an dem sie aufliegt, zumindest bereichsweise hinausragt. Durch eine derartige Ausgestaltung der Staublasche ist wiederum gewährleistet, dass die aus dem Zuschnitt hergestellte Verpackung mittels der Staublasche sicher abgedeckt wird und zudem eine deutlich höhere Formstabilität als vergleichbare bekannte Verpackungen aufweist.In further advantageous embodiments of the blank according to the invention, the dust flap is designed such that it rests at least partially in the folded state of the blank and in a closed position on the one or more side elements on which it is not articulated. A cut formed in this way ensures a secure closure or secure covering of a packaging produced therefrom in the area of the lid and / or bottom construction. In addition, the blank according to the invention leads to an increased load stability of the packaging produced therefrom in the areas of the lid and / or floor construction. In addition, the dust flap can be designed such that it protrudes at least partially in the folded state of the blank and in a closed position via at least one side element on which it rests. By such a configuration of the dust flap is in turn ensured that the packaging produced from the blank is securely covered by the dust flap and also has a much higher dimensional stability than comparable known packaging.

In weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltungen des erfindungsgemäßen Zuschnitts umfasst die Staublasche mindestens einen ersten Abschnitt, wobei der erste Abschnitt an dem entsprechenden stirnseitigen Seitenelement angelenkt ist und derart ausgebildet ist, dass er in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts und in Schließstellung der Staublasche den durch die stirnseitig angeordneten Seitenelemente gebildeten Bereich einer Grundfläche der Verpackung überdeckt. Durch diese erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung des ersten Abschnitts der Staublasche ist gewährleistet, dass dieser unabhängig von der Grundfläche der Verpackung in den Bereichen der Staublasche(n) diesen Bereich zuverlässig überdeckt. Des Weiteren besteht die Möglichkeit, dass die Staublasche mindestens einen sich an den ersten Abschnitt anschließenden zweiten Abschnitt umfasst, wobei der zweite Abschnitt derart ausgebildet ist, dass er in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts und in Schließstellung der Staublasche an den Innenseiten der Vorder- und Rückwandelemente anliegt. Dieses Merkmal des Zuschnitts trägt wiederum zur Formstabilität der aus dem Zuschnitt hergestellten Verpackung bei. Die Breite des zweiten Abschnitts ist dabei derart gewählt, dass in gefaltetem Zustand des Zuschnitts die Endabschnitte des zweiten Abschnitts jeweils zumindest bereichsweise an den Innenseiten der Vorder- und Rückwandelemente anliegen. Die Angabe, dass sich der zweite Abschnitt an den ersten Abschnitt anschließt, schließt nicht aus, dass zwischen dem ersten und zweiten Bereich ein möglicherweise anders geformter Zwischenbereich ausgebildet ist. Mit anderen Worten kann sich der zweite Abschnitt direkt oder indirekt an den ersten Abschnitt anschließen. Des Weiteren besteht die Möglichkeit, dass die Rastnase(n) in dem ersten Abschnitt und/oder zweiten Abschnitt der Staublasche ausgebildet ist.In further advantageous embodiments of the blank according to the invention, the dust flap comprises at least a first portion, wherein the first portion is articulated to the respective end side member and is formed such that it formed in the folded state of the blank and in the closed position of the dust flap formed by the end side arranged side members Covered area of a base of the package.

Die Verpackung 10 weist dabei eine Vorderwand 12 und eine Rückwand 14 auf, die über jeweils drei Seitenwände 22, 22', 22", 24, 24', 24" (siehe auch Figuren 2 und 3) verbunden sind. Die Seitenwände 22, 22', 22", 24, 24', 24" bilden die Stirnseiten 16, 18 der Verpackung 10. Man erkennt, dass die Verpackung 10 in Form eines prismatischen Körpers entlang einer Längsachse L ausgebildet ist und eine achteckige Grundfläche 38 aufweist. Die Verpackung 10 weist zudem eine Bodenkonstruktion 20 auf, die jeweils eine an der Vorder- und Rückwand 12, 14 angelenkte Bodenlasche 26, 28 zum bodenseitigen Verschluss der Verpackung 10 aufweist (siehe auch Figur 3). Des Weiteren weist die Verpackung 10 eine Deckelkonstruktion 30 auf, wobei die Deckelkonstruktion 30 jeweils eine an der Vorder- und Rückwand 12, 14 angelenkte Deckellasche 32, 34 zum deckelseitigen Verschluss der Verpackung umfasst. Zudem weisen in dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sowohl die Bodenkonstruktion 20 wie auch die Deckelkonstruktion 30 jeweils eine an den bodenseitigen und deckelseitigen Enden der stirnseitigen Seitenwände 22, 24 angelenkte Staublaschen 36 auf (vergleiche auch Figur 3). Man erkennt, dass die Staublaschen 36 an der mittleren der drei die Stirnseiten 16, 18 ausbildenden Seitenwände 22, 24 angelenkt sind. FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of a package 10, which is used in particular for storage and transport of bulk, powdered and pourable food. The package 10 in this case has a front wall 12 and a rear wall 14, which in each case via three side walls 22, 22 ', 22 ", 24, 24', 24" (see also Figures 2 and 3 ) are connected. The side walls 22, 22 ', 22 ", 24, 24', 24" form the end faces 16, 18 of the package 10. It can be seen that the package 10 is formed in the form of a prismatic body along a longitudinal axis L and an octagonal base 38th having. The package 10 also has a bottom construction 20, each having a hinged at the front and rear walls 12, 14 bottom tab 26, 28 for bottom closure of the package 10 (see also FIG. 3 ). Furthermore, the package 10 has a lid construction 30, the lid construction 30 each comprising a lid flap 32, 34 hinged to the front and rear walls 12, 14 for closing the lid on the packaging. In addition, in the illustrated embodiment, both the bottom construction 20 as well as the lid construction 30 each have a on the bottom-side and lid-side ends of the end-side side walls 22, 24 hinged dust flaps 36 (see also FIG. 3 ). It can be seen that the dust flaps 36 are articulated on the middle of the three side walls 22, 24 forming the end faces 16, 18.

Des Weiteren erkennt man, dass die Staublaschen 36 jeweils einen ersten Abschnitt 40 umfassen, wobei der erste Abschnitt 40 an der entsprechenden stirnseitigen Seitenwand 22, 24 angelenkt ist. An den ersten Abschnitt 40 schließt sich ein zweiter Abschnitt 42 an, wobei im Übergangsbereich zwischen dem ersten Abschnitt 40 und dem zweiten Abschnitt 42 jeweils seitliche Rastnasen 44 angeordnet sind. Die Rastnasen 44 sind derart ausgebildet, dass sie in einer Schließstellung der Staublasche 36 (vergleiche auch Figur 2) in die in den Boden- und Deckellaschen 26, 28, 32, 34 ausgebildeten Ausnehmungen 46 verrasten können und einen entsprechenden fixierten Kontakt zwischen diesen Elementen der Verpackung 10 ausbilden. Die Ausnehmungen 46 sind dabei jeweils im Übergangsbereich zwischen der Vorder- und Rückwand 12, 14 und den entsprechenden Boden- und Deckellaschen 26, 28, 32, 34 als in Richtung der Rastnasen 44 offene Ausnehmungen ausgebildet.Furthermore, it can be seen that the dust flaps 36 each include a first portion 40, wherein the first portion 40 is hinged to the respective end-side side wall 22, 24. The first section 40 is followed by a second section 42, wherein in the transition region between the first portion 40 and the second portion 42 each lateral locking lugs 44 are arranged. The locking lugs 44 are designed such that they in a closed position of the dust flap 36 (see also FIG. 2 ) can latch into the recesses 46 formed in the bottom and top flaps 26, 28, 32, 34 and form a corresponding fixed contact between these elements of the package 10. The recesses 46 are each formed in the transition region between the front and rear walls 12, 14 and the corresponding bottom and top flaps 26, 28, 32, 34 as in the direction of the locking lugs 44 open recesses.

Figur 2 zeigt die Verpackung 10 mit einer Schließstellung der Staublaschen 36 der Deckelkonstruktion 30. Man erkennt, dass die Staublaschen 36 derart ausgebildet sind, dass sie in der Schließstellung an den Seitenwänden 22', 22", 24', 24" aufliegen. An den Seitenwänden 22', 22", 24', 24" ist die Staublasche 36 nicht angelenkt. Des Weiteren wird deutlich, dass die Staublaschen 36 in ihrer Schließstellung über die genannten Seitenwände 22', 22", 24', 24" hinausragen und somit insgesamt den durch die stirnseitig angeordneten Seitenwände 22, 22', 22", 24, 24', 24" gebildeten Bereich der Grundfläche 38 der als prismatischer Körper ausgebildeten Verpackung 10 überdecken. Damit ist einerseits ein sicherer Verschluss beziehungsweise eine sichere Überdeckung dieses Bereichs der Verpackung 10 gewährleistet. Andererseits erhöht sich die Belastungsstabilität der Verpackung 10 in diesem Bereich deutlich. Die Staublaschen 36 der Bodenkonstruktion 20 sind identisch ausgebildet. FIG. 2 shows the package 10 with a closed position of the dust flaps 36 of the lid construction 30. It can be seen that the dust flaps 36 are formed such that they rest in the closed position on the side walls 22 ', 22 ", 24', 24". On the side walls 22 ', 22 ", 24', 24", the dust flap 36 is not articulated. Furthermore, it becomes clear that the dust flaps 36 in their closed position project beyond the said side walls 22 ', 22 ", 24', 24" and thus in total extend through the side walls 22, 22 ', 22 ", 24, 24' arranged on the front side, 24 "formed area of the base 38 of the formed as a prismatic body package 10 cover. On the one hand, a secure closure or secure covering of this area of the packaging 10 is ensured. On the other hand, the load stability of the package 10 increases significantly in this area. The dust flaps 36 of the floor construction 20 are identical.
