The main board 412 in the drawings includes several article holding structures RT1 and RT2, specifically, six article holding structures RT1 and RT2 arranged in a 2×3 matrix or array. Each of the article holding structures RT1, RT2 includes an opening or aperture A7, A8. In addition, the respective structures of the article holding structures RT1 and RT2 are substantially the same as those of the article holding structures RT1 and RT2 in FIG. 1 , and therefore will not be described in detail later.

該胚片410可包括至少一個穩定裝置M。在所示的實施例中,該胚片410是包括兩個穩定裝置M。該穩定裝置M所採取的形式是個從該胚片410壓製成的開口。一第一穩定裝置M係設於靠近該胚片410之一第一或前端緣的第一組四個物品固持結構RT1、RT2之間,且可設於所述第一組物品固持結構RT1、RT2的中間。一第二穩定裝置M則設於靠近該胚片410之一第二或後端緣的第二組四個物品固持結構RT1、RT2之間,且可設於所述第二組物品固持結構RT1、RT2的中間。該等穩定裝置M是設計成在將該胚片410應用到一組物品B的期間,用以容置一個接合銷(abutment peg)。繞著該組物品彎折該等側及端板片418、420、414、416時,該接合銷用以穩定或固定該胚片410。The blank 410 may comprise at least one stabilization device M. In the embodiment shown, the green sheet 410 includes two stabilizing devices M. As shown in FIG. The stabilization device M takes the form of an opening pressed from the blank 410 . A first stabilizing device M is disposed between the first group of four article holding structures RT1, RT2 near a first or front edge of the blank 410, and may be disposed on the first group of article holding structures RT1, RT2 Middle of RT2. A second stabilizing device M is disposed between the second group of four article holding structures RT1 and RT2 near a second or rear edge of the green sheet 410 , and may be disposed in the second group of article holding structures RT1 , the middle of RT2. The stabilizing devices M are designed to accommodate an abutment peg during application of the blank 410 to a set of articles B. The dowel pins are used to stabilize or secure the blank 410 as the side and end plates 418, 420, 414, 416 are bent around the set of articles.

該等穩定裝置M之開口的形狀可以是非圓形,且可以是實質方形或鑽石形。該開口可由從該主板片412壓製成並鉸接至其上的至少一片凸片496界定出。在所示的實施例中,該開口是由一對各自從該主板片412壓製成並彼此從對向鉸接到該主板片412之上的凸片界定出。該對凸片494彼此可利用一切口或易斷線495而分離。The shape of the openings of the stabilization devices M may be non-circular, and may be substantially square or diamond-shaped. The opening may be defined by at least one tab 496 pressed from the main sheet 412 and hinged thereto. In the embodiment shown, the opening is defined by a pair of tabs each pressed from the main plate 412 and hinged to the main plate 412 from opposite sides of each other. The pair of tabs 494 may be separated from each other by a slit or frangible line 495 .

在一些實施例中,該等穩定裝置M是設計成可提供一額外的把手孔。然而,在圖10的實施例中,該等穩定裝置M的尺寸大致是小到無法容置使用者的一隻手指或其一部分。此舉的優點是可在該主板片412的該等穩定裝置M與該等物品固持結構RT1、RT2之間提供較大數量的基板材料,從而增進該物品攜具490的穩固性與完整性。In some embodiments, the stabilization devices M are designed to provide an additional handle hole. However, in the embodiment of Fig. 10, the size of the stabilizing means M is generally too small to accommodate a user's finger or a portion thereof. The advantage of this is that a larger amount of substrate material can be provided between the stabilizing devices M of the main board 412 and the article holding structures RT1 , RT2 , thereby enhancing the stability and integrity of the article carrier 490 .

該第一端板片414、該第一固定板片464A和該第二固定板片464B在該攜具490的一第一端提供一攜運把手464A/414/464B。該第二端板片416、該第三固定板片466A和該第四固定板片466B則在該攜具490的一第二端構成一第二攜運把手466A/416/466B。使用時,該第一端板片414或該第二端板片416會與該主板片412分離,該對應的易裂線413、415則會斷開或斷裂;此舉可如圖12所示,讓該端板片414、416或至少其一中間部從該等物品B和/或主板片412往外移位。如此一來,該端板片414、416的一內表面與該等物品B之間便產生一個可供使用者將手或手指的一部分***的間隙或空隙。該攜運把手464A/414/464B、466A/416/466B,尤其是該等固定板片464A、464B、466A、466B可抵住該等物品B的側壁,促使負載力較易轉移到該等物品B的該等側壁內,並增進該攜運把手464A/414/464B、466A/416/466B的強度與彈性。The first end plate 414 , the first fixing plate 464A and the second fixing plate 464B provide a carrying handle 464A/414/464B at a first end of the carrier 490 . The second end plate 416 , the third fixing plate 466A and the fourth fixing plate 466B form a second carrying handle 466A/416/466B at a second end of the carrying device 490 . During use, the first end plate 414 or the second end plate 416 will be separated from the main plate 412, and the corresponding frangible lines 413 and 415 will be disconnected or broken; this can be shown in FIG. 12 . , so that the end plate pieces 414 , 416 or at least a middle portion thereof are displaced outwardly from the articles B and/or the main plate piece 412 . As a result, a gap or space is created between an inner surface of the end plate pieces 414, 416 and the articles B for the user to insert a part of a hand or finger. The carrying handles 464A/414/464B, 466A/416/466B, especially the fixing plates 464A, 464B, 466A, 466B can abut the side walls of the articles B, so that the load force can be easily transferred to the articles In the side walls of B, the strength and elasticity of the carrying handles 464A/414/464B and 466A/416/466B are improved.

該等胚片10;110;210;310;410包含至少一種紙板式基板。該紙板式基板的材料可從任一習用紙板中選用,例如,重量範圍約10pt.以上,且較佳為約16pt.到28pt. (0.028”/~0.7mm)之間者。這種基板的範例即為偉斯特洛克(WestRock)公司產製的一種27pt.的SBS板材(一面有塗層的固體漂白硫酸鹽紙板,商品名稱為PrinKote®),或CNK®板材(Coated Natural Kraft® - 一種在一面有白土塗層的未漂白牛皮紙板,商品名稱為CarrierKoteTM)。該紙板式基板可以是漂白或未漂白的板材,也可以在至少一面,或選擇性在與裱貼(lamination)相對的那一面塗布某種能與印刷方式及板材組分相容而選取的習用塗層。The blanks 10; 110; 210; 310; 410 comprise at least one cardboard substrate. The material of the cardboard substrate can be selected from any conventional cardboard, for example, the weight range of about 10pt. and above, and preferably between about 16pt. to 28pt. (0.028"/~0.7mm). Such a substrate An example of this is a 27pt. SBS board (coated solid bleached kraft board on one side, trade name PrinKote®) from WestRock, or a CNK® board (Coated Natural Kraft®- A kind of unbleached kraft paperboard with clay coating on one side, trade name is CarrierKoteTM). The paperboard-like substrate can be bleached or unbleached board, and can also be on at least one side, or optionally on the opposite side of lamination. That side is coated with some conventional coating chosen to be compatible with the printing method and composition of the sheet.

該等胚片10;110;210;310;410還可包含一道貼合到紙板層的耐撕裂層。該紙板式基板與耐撕裂層之間另可選擇性增設一道黏合層。該耐撕裂層可設在該紙板式基板未塗布的那一面,並可由聚合料形成並固定到該基板上。該耐撕裂層讓這種層合結構具有韌性。適宜的耐撕裂材料可包含但不限於耐撕裂的層合片材,例如NATRALOCK®,該片材可含有一層屬於雙軸向拉伸(bi-axially oriented)聚酯、拉伸尼龍、交叉層合聚烯烴、或高密度聚烯烴的n-軸向拉伸(n-axially oriented)薄膜,例如MYLAR®。這些材料的拉伸取向及交叉層合結構會促成耐撕裂的特性。此外,諸如擠塑(extruded)式茂金屬聚乙烯(mPE)之類耐撕裂材料的化學性質,也是使其本身具有耐撕裂性的主因。The blanks 10; 110; 210; 310; 410 may also comprise a tear-resistant layer attached to the cardboard layer. An adhesive layer can be optionally added between the cardboard substrate and the tear-resistant layer. The tear resistant layer may be provided on the uncoated side of the cardboard substrate and may be formed from a polymeric material and secured to the substrate. The tear-resistant layer imparts flexibility to the laminate. Suitable tear-resistant materials may include, but are not limited to, tear-resistant laminate sheets, such as NATRALOCK®, which may contain a layer of bi-axially oriented polyester, stretched nylon, cross Laminated polyolefins, or n-axially oriented films of high density polyolefins, such as MYLAR®. The stretch orientation and cross-laminate construction of these materials contribute to tear resistance properties. In addition, the chemical properties of tear-resistant materials such as extruded metallocene polyethylene (mPE) are also responsible for their own tear-resistant properties.

或者,該耐撕裂層可改為一層線性低密度聚乙烯(LLDPE)。在使用線性低密度聚乙烯(LLDPE)或mPE的各實施例中,未必要加入一道黏合層。此外,其它具有高度耐撕裂性的適宜材料亦可採用。Alternatively, the tear resistant layer can be replaced with a layer of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE). In various embodiments using linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) or mPE, it is not necessary to add an adhesive layer. In addition, other suitable materials with a high degree of tear resistance may also be used.

該黏合層可由諸如低密度聚乙烯(LDPE)之類的聚乙烯材料形成。該黏合層可設於該基板與耐撕裂層之間,以便將該耐撕裂層固定到該基板上。The adhesive layer may be formed from a polyethylene material such as low density polyethylene (LDPE). The adhesive layer may be disposed between the substrate and the tear-resistant layer to secure the tear-resistant layer to the substrate.

應能理解的是,在不違反本發明的範圍內可從事種種變化。例如,該等板片與孔口的尺寸及形狀均可調整以配合不同尺寸與形狀的物品,較多或較少數量和/或設成不同陣列組態的物品。雖然前述各實施例均以繞著一開口設有若干凸片的「太陽光芒(sunburst)」型物品固持結構予以例舉說明,但其他的固持結構也可採用。在其他實施例中,該等物品固持結構RT1、RT2則可採取不同的形式,例如但不限於一種用以容置一物品之一部分的物品容置開口,其設有一對可在一物品的一凸緣、凸邊(chime)或其他凸伸部下方之對向兩側與其接合的對向接合緣。在該等實施例中,該頂板片或接合板片所設的高度可在該等待包裝物品B之上端的下方。It should be understood that various changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, the size and shape of the plates and apertures can be adjusted to accommodate items of different sizes and shapes, larger or smaller quantities and/or arranged in different array configurations. Although the above-mentioned embodiments have been exemplified by a "sunburst" type article holding structure with a plurality of tabs around an opening, other holding structures may also be used. In other embodiments, the article holding structures RT1 and RT2 can take different forms, such as but not limited to an article accommodating opening for accommodating a part of an article, which is provided with a pair of Opposing joint edges to which opposite sides below a flange, chime or other projection engage. In these embodiments, the top panel or engaging panel may be set at a height below the upper end of the item B to be packaged.

該等物品固持結構RT1、RT2採取的形式可以是一對隔開的對向切口,據以界定出一個在一物品上方形成一覆蓋物(cover)的可位移區域,並提供一對可在一物品的一凸緣、凸邊或其他凸伸部下方之對向兩側與其接合的對向接合緣。The article-retaining structures RT1, RT2 may take the form of a pair of spaced opposing cut-outs defining a displaceable area forming a cover over an article and providing a pair of Opposite joint edges to which opposite sides below a flange, flange or other projection of an article engage.

現將認知的是,本文所稱的各定向用語,例如「頂部」、「底部」、「前」、「後」、「端」、「側」、「內」、「外」、「上」和「下」等,未必是把相關的板片限定於該取向,僅是用來區別該等板片而已。It will now be recognized that the various directional terms referred to herein, such as "top", "bottom", "front", "rear", "end", "side", "inside", "outside", "upper" and "lower", etc., do not necessarily limit the relevant plates to this orientation, but are only used to distinguish the plates.

本文所稱「鉸接部」及「折疊線」係指界定出該胚片上之鉸接部件,促使胚片各部份相對於彼此易於彎折,或該指胚片所屬各板片之適當彎折位置的各式各樣的線。舉凡提及「鉸接部」者不得據以解釋成必然以單一的折疊線為限;事實上,一個鉸接部可由二條或以上的折疊線形成,其中該等折疊線各自的形狀可以是直線形或曲線形。當以直線形折疊線來形成一鉸接部時,可將它們設成彼此平行或略微保持一角度。此外,當曲線形折疊線來形成一鉸接部時,則可將它們設成彼此交叉,據以在其圍繞住的區域裡界定出一片成型板片。這種鉸接部的典型範例可包括在兩點交叉,以致在彼此間界定出一片橢圓形板片的一對拱形或弧形折疊線。再者,一個鉸接部可由一條或以上的直線形和一條或以上的曲線形折疊線形成。這種鉸接部的典型範例可包括在兩點交叉,以致在彼此間界定出一片半月形板片的一條直線形折疊線與一條拱形或弧形折疊線的組合。As used herein, "hinge" and "fold line" refer to defining the hinges on the blank, facilitating easy bending of parts of the blank relative to each other, or to the appropriate bending positions of the panels to which the blank belongs of assorted lines. References to "hinge" should not be construed as necessarily limited to a single fold line; in fact, a hinge may be formed by two or more fold lines, each of which may be linear or curvilinear. When forming a hinge with straight fold lines, they can be set parallel to each other or at a slight angle. Furthermore, when curved fold lines are formed to form a hinge, they can be arranged to cross each other, thereby defining a forming panel in the area they surround. Typical examples of such hinges may include a pair of arcuate or arcuate fold lines that intersect at two points so as to define an oval-shaped panel between each other. Furthermore, a hinge may be formed by one or more straight and one or more curved fold lines. Typical examples of such hinges may include a combination of a straight fold line and an arcuate or arcuate fold line intersecting at two points so as to define a meniscus panel between each other.

本文所稱「折疊線」可指下列其中一種:一刻痕線、一凸(embossed)線、一凹(debossed)線、一列的穿孔、一列的短縫、一列的半切口、單一的半切口、一斷續的切割線、一列的對齊裂縫、一列的刻痕、及其任一組合等。As used herein, a "fold line" may refer to one of the following: a score line, an embossed line, a debossed line, a row of perforations, a row of short slits, a row of half-cuts, a single half-cut, An intermittent cut line, a row of alignment slits, a row of nicks, any combination thereof, and the like.

另應瞭解的是,鉸接部與折疊線能各自包括在該胚片的該基板上所形成的元件,例如穿孔、一列的穿孔、一列的短縫、一列的半切口、單一的半切口、一切割線、一斷續的切割線、裂縫、刻痕、凸線、凹線、及其任一組合等。該等元件可按意欲發揮的功能而定其尺寸與配置。例如,一列的穿孔在尺寸或設計上可設成具有能界定出一折疊線和/或一切斷線的弱化度。另外,該列的穿孔可設計成易於彎折及耐抗斷裂,易於彎折及多用些力量即易於斷裂,或稍用些力量即易於斷裂。It will also be appreciated that hinges and fold lines can each include elements formed on the base plate of the blank, such as perforations, a row of perforations, a row of slits, a row of half-cuts, a single half-cut, a A cut line, an intermittent cut line, a crack, a score, a convex line, a groove, any combination thereof, and the like. These elements can be sized and configured according to the intended function. For example, a row of perforations can be sized or designed to have a weakening that defines a fold line and/or a cut line. In addition, the row of perforations can be designed to be easy to bend and resistant to breakage, easy to bend and easy to break with a little more force, or easy to break with a little force.

本文所稱「對準」係指將一組立紙箱中的二個或以上元件對齊,例如將兩片疊合板片中的一第一片之上形成一的孔口與一第二片之上形成的一第二孔口對齊。彼此對準的那些元件可以是朝著該等疊合板片的厚度方向相互對齊。例如,當一第一板片上的孔口一跟設成與該第一板片疊合之一第二板片上的一第二孔口「對準」時,該孔口的一邊緣可沿著該第二孔口至少一部份的一邊緣延伸,並可朝著該等第一及第二板片的厚度方向與該第二孔口對齊。"Aligning" as used herein refers to aligning two or more elements in a set of vertical cartons, such as aligning an aperture formed in a first and a second of two laminated panels A second orifice is aligned. Those elements that are aligned with each other may be aligned with each other towards the thickness of the laminated sheets. For example, when an orifice in a first plate is "aligned" with a second orifice in a second plate that overlaps the first plate, an edge of the orifice may be along the An edge of at least a portion of the second opening extends and can be aligned with the second opening toward the thickness direction of the first and second plates.
