Definitions

  • the invention relates to a packaging container for receiving a flowable product, which consists of a rigid wrapper and a flexible sack stored therein with a closable outlet bung and a passage or bunghole of the wrapper associated therewith. It also relates to methods for starting up and filling the packaging container.
  • An essential feature of packaging of this type is the sack or bag for holding liquid, which is arranged within a stable packaging container, cardboard box or the like, for example consisting of corrugated cardboard, and one Has outlet bung.
  • the outlet bung is generally welded into the sack, which is preferably made of plastic.
  • Such bag-in-box containers are used as an alternative to bottles or canisters, particularly for use as storage packs, for liquid chemicals for use by commercial users, but also for beverages, such as wine, for use in the household. In practice, relatively large amounts of liquid, for example up to 30 liters, are suitable.
  • the flexible sack integrated in the packaging container has a closable spout. This is carried out during the first commissioning an, for example pre-punched, opening of a surface, preferably the top, of the container is pulled outwards. In the pouring position, the outlet bung can be held or locked in the bunghole assigned to it in the top of the packaging. This pulling out and fixing the outlet bung is very tedious with a (small) bunghole that is just suitable for locking. If, on the other hand, the bung hole is made larger and thereby the pulling out of the outlet bung from the packaging is simplified, the pouring becomes more difficult because the outlet bung has to be held separately during the pouring.
  • the aim is to include dosing containers or small application containers for daily use.
  • the objects to be added are for example placed on the outlet neck of the bottle or canister or attached to the container. With such a fastening, there is always a risk of losing the added item on the sales channel, especially in the shop.
  • objects attached to the outside interfere with the stacking of the Packaging. This applies particularly to bag-in-box containers, because these packages can be equipped with an ideal cuboid shape for stacking.
  • the invention has for its object to integrate the dosing, application or the like of the flowable product, the object to be added to the packaging container removably into a reclosable bag-in-box container in such a way that special fastening elements on the outer surface of the packaging are eliminated Item cannot be accidentally lost on the sales channel, automated addition of the item is possible, and items of various shapes can be provided without affecting the stackability of the packaging and removed without impairing the functionality of the container.
  • the solution according to the invention for the packaging container of the type mentioned above with a rigid covering and a flexible sack stored therein is that an object to be handled for handling the product can be inserted at a predetermined position in the space between the covering and the sack, and that the wall of the covering has a reclosable window flap for removing and putting back the object to be added.
  • the object to be added is to be arranged closed within the rigid envelope.
  • the item to be added cannot be lost on the distribution channels.
  • it does not disturb the outer shape of the casing in any way, so that its Stackability is not affected.
  • the object to be released for example a dosing container, can be removed by opening the window flap. Due to the resealability of the window flap, this can be done without affecting the functionality of the structure. Any disruptive fastening elements on the outer surface of the container for fastening the object to be added are not provided.
  • the invention provides an environmentally friendly alternative to the plastic bottles or canisters previously used in households when washing, rinsing, cleaning or finishing agents are filled into these containers.
  • the solution according to the invention for a method for filling the packaging container is that the object after filling the sack and inserting the sack into the rigid envelope, but before closing the rigid envelope, into the outer surface of the sack is pressed in, and that the wrapper is then closed. This enables the automated addition of the dosing, application or the like serving object in a simple manner.
  • the invention provides that the window flap, which is to be designed in particular as a reclosable tamper-evident closure, adjoins the intended position of the object to be added.
  • the window flap By opening the window flap, the object can then easily be removed or - particularly in the case of reclosability - replaced in the casing.
  • a favorable mutual assignment is obtained when the window flap is in the upper end face, in particular in the same area as the bung hole, is arranged, as provided by the invention in a further embodiment. This simplifies handling and, if arranged on the top of the container, the object can be pushed in without the packaging having to tip over or be held.
  • the volume enclosed by the rigid covering is only greater by the volume of the object to be added than the volume of the filled sack including the outlet bung.
  • the volume of the envelope is only increased by the displacement volume of the added object regardless of its length, width or height dimensions.
  • the packaging container has two superimposed outer top flaps one above the other, one lower outer top flap being a hole Removal opening for the object to be added and the other, upper outer top flap which has the window flap corresponding to the tapping opening, preferably reclosable, and furthermore has two short inner head flaps with punched-out sections or incisions adapted to the contours of the window flap and the opening.
  • the packaging container according to the invention is preferably formed at the opening for removing the object to be added in such a way that the window flap is connected to the adjoining surface of the head flap via a hinge groove, which may have been cut in a central region, and an edge formed over a folding groove on its edge opposite the hinge groove Has tab.
  • the plug-in position of the plug-in flap can essentially be secured against accidental opening if the plug-in flap formed from an outer head flap is drawn in from both sides at the level of its folding groove and if the plug-in tab in the head flap located under the window flap is assigned a plug-in slot which locks the plug-in tab at approximately 90 ° inwards.
  • the plug-in flap is pulled in from both sides at the level of its folding groove, that is to say has a kind of waist, corresponding projections remain in the head flap, under which the projections of the plug-in flap which laterally adjoin the waist snap into place when inserted.
  • the invention further provides that the plug-in flap has, at its free end opposite the creasing, a recessed or pre-cut, in particular punched, grip recess, preferably as a semicircular grip hole, during manufacture.
  • pulling out the inserted plug-in tab is made easier if it has an incision bent convexly in the direction of the free tab end in the course of its folding, as is also provided by the invention.
  • a projection on the window flap which may be provided, which can be gripped with a fingertip without further ado for lifting and tearing out the flap.
  • the window flap has a larger area than the corresponding removal opening of the head flap underneath and, in the closed state, rests in partial areas on the remaining parts of the lower head flap.
  • the invention provides that the outlet bung in the area between its pouring opening and the adjacent sack has a neck with two molded, radially projecting flanges, that the mutual spacing of the flanges is approximately equal to the wall thickness of the casing in the area of the bunghole, that the The outer circumference of the neck is adapted to the passage defined by the bunghole and that the bunghole is adjacent with a quarter of its circumference to a window of the casing which is sufficiently large to reach through.
  • the window adjacent to the bunghole and the adapted shape of the outlet bung and the bunghole ensure that the outlet bung in the original packaging inside the wrapper is pulled outwards with the fingers of one hand after opening the bunghole and opening the window from the inside of the packaging and can be pushed laterally into the bunghole opened towards the window in such a way that the flanges provided on the neck of the outlet bung abut the wrapping surface above and below the edge of the bunghole. This enables simplified commissioning of the packaging.
  • the solution according to the invention also allows a simplified separation of the folding box and sack - after emptying - because it is sufficient to push the outlet bung out of its seat in the bunghole to the side and, together with the attached, preferably welded-on, sack from the, mostly made of corrugated cardboard, Pull out the wrapping.
  • the window has a reclosable window flap with a hinge designed as a creasing line on the side facing away from the bunghole.
  • a window flap makes it possible - if necessary after breaking a tamper-evident closure - to reach into the casing, pull out the outlet bung and insert it into the finally opened bunghole and then close the window again so that the bungout is secured in the position of the bunghole at the same time.
  • a particularly good securing of the position of the run-on bung in the bunghole is achieved according to an embodiment of the invention if the window flap on its outer edge adjacent to the bunghole is adapted to the circumference of the side of the outlet bung to be pushed in and locked in the area between the two flanges.
  • a further securing of position, in particular also securing against rotation, is achieved according to the invention if the neck of the outlet bung in the area between the flanges is designed as a flattened piece of pipe for the purpose of securing against rotation.
  • the flat sides of the pipe section are then preferably arranged as guide surfaces between two correspondingly flat sides of the bunghole leading to the window.
  • the outlet bung cannot then turn about its axis, so that a pouring opening provided on the outlet bung always maintains a certain predetermined position with respect to the packaging.
  • a flange of the outlet bung lying on the outside of the casing is designed so that it is clearly visible in a rosette shape and adapted to an orientation pattern attached to the casing. The user can then already When inserting it for the first time, recognize how the outlet bung should be oriented correctly.
  • the opening according to the invention consisting of a bunghole and window is to be formed on a top surface of the packaging on which a plurality of top flaps lie one on top of the other, the borders of the bunghole and window are congruently formed continuously through all the top flaps of a wrapping wall lying one above the other. This not only ensures that the elements essential to the invention function properly, but also that the casing wall and window flap are stable for operation.
  • the packaging container according to the invention has a cuboid shape which is advantageous for stacking and is tamper-evident. To do this, it is sufficient if the surfaces of the casing enclosed by the window and bunghole are defined with the aid of cut or punched lines interrupted by tamper-evident bridges.
  • the tamper-evident closure then consists of the tamper-evident bridges or punching bridges, which are easy to break open when the bunghole and window are opened.
  • the first-time opening is made even easier if the section of the cutting or punching line provided at the border between the window flap and the bunghole is designed continuously - that is to say without punching bridges - as is further provided by the invention.
  • Such a continuous cut makes it easier, above all, to press in the envelope surface originally filling the bunghole.
  • there is no need for a continuous cut in the specified area on this edge the window flap later when locking or unlocking the window flap between the flanges of the sheet neck may be annoying remnants of punch bridges.
  • the window adjacent to the bung hole is also provided in a double function for the packaging of an application aid, for example a dosing vessel.
  • an application aid for example a dosing vessel.
  • the application aid When the packaging container is originally filled, the application aid is preferably pressed into the outer surface of the filled sack after the sack has been filled, but before the (rigid) wrapper is closed, and is locked in this position by closing the wrapper. Care should be taken to ensure that the application aid lies within the container adjacent to the window, so that it must be taken immediately after opening the tamper-evident package until use by the consumer. After removing the application aid, the outlet bung can be pulled out of the window and locked in the bunghole.
  • the volume enclosed by the rigid wrapping in the packaging according to the invention is only greater by the volume of the object to be added than the volume of the filled sack including the outlet bung. In practice, this means an extremely small change in the dimensions of the wrapping compared to the case of such packaging without the application aid used. Regardless of the form of the application aid, the volume of the envelope is increased only by the displacement volume of the added object, regardless of its length, width or height dimensions.
  • the invention provides a further embodiment of a packaging container, which is characterized in that it has a fully covering, under outer head flap with window flap and bunghole delimited therein by perforation lines or punched holes, that it has two short, inner head flaps has punched-outs or incisions that match the contours of the window flap and bunghole, and that it has has a fully covering, upper outer head flap that completely covers the contours of the window flap and bunghole.
  • the upper outer head flap has two perforation lines running parallel to its longitudinal and articulation edge, which are arranged outside the contours of the window flap and the bunghole are.
  • the invention further provides that the outer regions remaining between the perforation lines and the longitudinal or articulated edge are designed as an adhesive surface for connecting the two outer head flaps.
  • a crease line running parallel to the narrow side edge is formed to form a grip strip, as is further provided by the invention.
  • the invention provides a method which is characterized in that, while breaking the tamper-evident bridge, the indentation surface filling the bunghole is pressed in and the window flap filling the window is opened outwards, so that the outlet bung is pulled out of the packaging interior and used the flanges provided on his neck is pushed into the bunghole and locked by closing the window flap.

  • the window flap 63 can be opened again in order to remove plastic parts present within the envelope, when the outlet bung 70 is pulled out laterally from the three-sided cardboard enclosure in the bunghole 64, for separate disposal of paper and plastic with a handle through the window 62.
  • a blank or a packaging container is shown in a further alternative embodiment.
  • the blank generally designated 90 in FIG. 14 has two surfaces 91 and 92 forming the broad sides of the erected packaging container with bottom flaps 93 and 94 hinged thereon, and areas 95 and 96 forming bottom sides of the packaging container with bottom flaps 97 and 98 hinged thereto.
  • the base flaps 93, 94, 97 and 98 are brought into a superimposed position in the usual manner and glued to one another.
  • Another adhesive tab 99 is articulated laterally to the surface 91.
  • the narrow side surface 95 also has a handle flap 102 which is delimited by a perforation line 100 and has creasing lines 101.
  • the top flaps of the folding box blank 90 consist of two short top flaps 103 and 104, which are inside when the folding box blank is erected and folded, and which are hinged to the folding box blank surfaces 96 and 95. These have, like the other exemplary embodiments, the incisions 107 and 108 adapted to the contours of the window flap 105 and the bunghole 106. When the folding box cut is erected, these inner head flaps 103 and 104 have the lower, fully covering outer head flap 110 provided with the window flap 105 and the bunghole or flap 109 covering the bunghole.
  • the uppermost layer and thus the outer surface of the packaging container in the head area is formed by another fully covering, the upper outer head flap 111.
  • This has parallel to its articulation edge 112 on the folding box area 92 and parallel to its longitudinal edge 113 two perforation lines 114.
  • the middle part 115 of the head flap 111 is delimited by these two perforation lines 114.
  • the perforation lines 114 are spaced apart from one another to such an extent that they come to lie outside the contours of the window flap 105 and the bunghole flap 109 when the packaging container is folded and erected.
  • the central part 115 is formed over the entire surface and, due to the arrangement of the perforation lines 114 explained above, completely covers the window flap 105 and the bunghole flap 109.
  • the areas remaining between the outer edge 113 and the nearest perforation line 114 and between the articulation line 112 and the nearest perforation line 114 serve as an adhesive surface for gluing the head flap 111 and the head flap 110 underneath. Furthermore, the head flaps 103 and 104 can also be glued to the head flap 110 lying above. Parallel to a narrow side edge, the head flap 111 has a creasing line 116 running parallel to this narrow side edge at a short distance from this narrow side edge. With the help of this creasing line, a grip strip 117 is divided into the central part 115, on which the central part is easily grasped and to expose the window flap 105 and Bunghole flap 109 can be torn off along the perforation lines 114. In order to further facilitate tearing off or tearing open the middle part, a notch-shaped incision is provided in the top flap 111 at the beginning and end of the perforation lines 114.
  • FIG. 15 shows a packaging container from the blank according to FIG. 14 in the closed position.
  • 16 shows the packaging container with the central part 115 torn off and the window flap 105 and bunghole flap 109 exposed.
  • the bunghole flap 109 which is now exposed, is then removed and the window flap 105 is folded up along the crease or perforation line 118.
  • a metering aid enclosed is removed or only the outlet bung of the filled sack is gripped and inserted into the bunghole 106.
  • the window flap 105 is then closed again.
  • a packaging container ready for dispensing is then available.
  • a packaging container is thus created in which the window flap and the bunghole are particularly protected.
  • the outer head flap 111 is thus designed as a protective flap.
