Abstract

The invention concerns a collapsible carton which has a rectangular cross-section and a lid which is hinged on the upper edge of one side and has a three-sided border. When the lid is closed, its border extends parallel to the other three sides (5, 8a, 10a, 8b, 10b) and abuts them closely on the exterior. Hinged at the upper edge of at least one of the three sides is a tab (12) which is bent downwards when the lid is closed so that the lower edge of the tab abuts a stop edge (14) on the interior of the lid border. According to the invention, the tab (12) is disposed on at least one of the sides (8a, 10a, 8b, 10b) adjacent the lid hinge. In the inner layer (6a, 6b) of the double-layer lid border, immediately adjacent the lid, is a material recess (13) whose dimensions correspond at least to those of the tab (12), such that the lower edge of the recess (13) in the inner layer forms the stop edge (14).

Description

Wiederverschließbare Faltschachtel mit öffhungssicherung Resealable folding box with opening protection
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Faltschachtel mit rechteckigem Querschnitt mit einem an der Oberkante einer Seite angelenkten Deckel mit dreiseitigem Rand, wobei sich der Rand bei geschlossenem Deckel parallel zu den übrigen drei Seiten erstreckt und außen dicht anliegt und an der Oberkante mindestens einer der drei Seiten mindestens eine Zunge angelenkt ist, die beim Schließen des Deckels an der Anlen stelle senkrecht abgebogen wird und an der Außenfläche ihrer zugehörigen Seite direkt anhegt und mit ihrer unteren Kante gegen eine in der Form angepaßte Anschlagkante stößt, die an der Innenseite des Deckelrandes angeordnet ist.The invention relates to a folding box with a rectangular cross-section with a hinged lid on the upper edge of one side with a three-sided edge, the edge extending parallel to the other three sides when the lid is closed and tightly fitting on the outside and at least one of the three sides of the upper edge Tongue is articulated, which is bent vertically when the lid is closed at the pivot point and directly heals on the outer surface of its associated side and abuts with its lower edge against a shape-adapted stop edge which is arranged on the inside of the edge of the lid.
Es gibt vielfältige Konstruktionen für rechteckige Faltschachteln mit einem Deckel mit mindestens dreiseitigem Deckelrand, die nach der Erstöfihung mit dem Deckel wieder verschlossen werden können, um den noch vorhandenen Schachtelinhalt zu schützen. Häufig halben solche Schachteln Innenzargen, die separat ausgebildet und eingeklebt oder in integrierter Form angelenkt sind, und die einen Aufreißfaden oder eine ähnliche Vorrichtung zum Öffnen des Paketes haben, wobei sich ein an die Faltschachtel angelenkter Deckel ergibt. Der Wiederverschluß erfolgt, indem der Deckel über den aus der Zarge gebildeten Kragen gestülpt wird. Der Deckel hegt somit lose über dem Kragen. Falls das einmal geöffnete Paket umfällt, wird durch den Produktstrom der Deckel aufgedrückt, so daß Produkt austreten kann. Es kommt auch vor, daß der Deckel, bedingt durch die aterialsteifigkeit, eine Rückfederkraft aufweist die bei leichter Berührung der Faltschachtel zum ungewollten öffnen des Deckels fuhrt.There are various designs for rectangular folding boxes with a lid with at least a three-sided lid edge, which can be closed again after the initial opening to protect the remaining contents of the box. Often half of such boxes are inner frames, which are separately formed and glued or articulated in an integrated form, and which have a tear-open thread or a similar device for opening the package, resulting in a lid articulated on the carton. The reclosure takes place by putting the cover over the collar formed from the frame. The lid thus lies loosely over the collar. If the package, once opened, falls over, the lid is pushed open by the product flow so that product can escape. It also happens that the lid, due to the aterial rigidity, has a spring back force which, when the folding box is lightly touched, leads to the lid being opened unintentionally.
Um diesen Nachteil zu mindern, gibt es Innenzargen mit Einschnitten bzw. gestanzten Zungen, in die der Deckel eingeklemmt werden kann. Diese Lösung ist jedoch umständlich und führt nicht zu einer selbsttätigen öffhunizssichening.In order to reduce this disadvantage, there are inner frames with incisions or punched tongues into which the lid can be clamped. However, this solution is cumbersome and does not lead to automatic public security.

Deckels an der Anlenkstelle senkrecht nach unten abgebogen wird und an der Außenfläche ihrer .zugehörigen Seite direkt anhegt. Diese Zunge stößt mit ihrer unteren Kante gegen eine Anschlagkante, die an der Innenseite des Deckelrandes angeordnet ist. Diese Lösung hat den Nachteil, daß sowohl für die angelenkte Zunge als auch für die Vorrichtung, die die Anschlagkante für die Zunge bildet, zusätzliches Material benötigt wird. Werden Zunge und das die Anschlagkante bildende Material einstückig und nur durch eine Perforation getrennt hergestellt, ist die Erstöfifhung der Faltschachtel sehr umständlich.Lid is bent vertically downwards at the articulation point and directly attached to the outer surface of its associated side. This tongue abuts with its lower edge against a stop edge which is arranged on the inside of the edge of the lid. This solution has the disadvantage that additional material is required both for the articulated tongue and for the device which forms the stop edge for the tongue. If the tongue and the material forming the stop edge are made in one piece and only separated by a perforation, the first opening of the folding box is very cumbersome.
Das der Erfindung zugrundehegende Problem ist es, eine Sicherung gegen unbeabsichtigtes öffnen vorzuschlagen, die die Nachteile bekannter Lösungen vermeidet, und die insbesondere auch für seitlich zu befüllende Faltschachteln geeignet ist.The problem underlying the invention is to propose a safeguard against unintentional opening, which avoids the disadvantages of known solutions, and which is also particularly suitable for folding boxes to be filled from the side.
Dieses Problem wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß bei der bekannten Faltschachtel die Zunge an mindestens einer der Seiten, die der Deckelanlenkung benachbart sind, angeordnet und in der Innenlage eines doppellagigen Deckelrandes, unmittelbar angrenzend an den Deckel, eine Materialaussparung, insbesondere ein Ausschnitt vorhanden ist, deren Abmessungen derart an die der Zunge angepaßt sind bzw. des Ausschnitts, daß die untere Kante der Aussparung bzw. des Ausschnitts in der Innenlage die Anschlagkante bildet.This problem is solved according to the invention in that, in the known folding box, the tongue is arranged on at least one of the sides which are adjacent to the hinging of the lid and in the inner layer of a double-layered lid edge, immediately adjacent to the lid, there is a material recess, in particular a cutout, the dimensions of which are adapted to that of the tongue or of the cutout such that the lower edge of the cutout or of the cutout forms the stop edge in the inner position.
Für diese Lösung wird kein zusätzliches Material benötigt und sie ist auch für seitlich befüllbare Faltschachteln geeignet. Wird die Zunge an einer oder oder beiden Schmalseiten angeordnet, hat dies zusätzlich den Vorteil, daß die Schmalseiten steifer gegen Eindrücken sind als die Längsseite und somit ein unbeabsichtigtes Lösen der Zunge effektiver vermieden wird. Das Einschnappen der Zunge in die die Anschlagkante bildende Aussparung ist deutlich zu hören, so daß der Benutzer über das Funktionieren der Sicherung informiert ist.No additional material is required for this solution and it is also suitable for laterally fillable folding boxes. If the tongue is arranged on one or both narrow sides, this has the additional advantage that the narrow sides are stiffer against indentation than the long side and thus an unintentional loosening of the tongue is more effectively avoided. The snap of the tongue into the recess forming the stop edge can be clearly heard, so that the user is informed about the functioning of the fuse.
Weist die Zunge eine der Aiύenklinie gegenüberhegende, parallel zu ihr verlaufende Kante auf, bildet sich eine besonders sicher wirkende Sicherung gegen unbeabsichtigtes Öffnen des Deckels. Die Zunge kann sowohl in der äußeren als auch in der inneren Wand einer mehrlagigen Seite angeordnet sein. Bei steifem Kaπonmaterial ist die Anordnung an der äußeren Wand vorteilhafter, weil die äußere Wand durch die innenliegende Wand abgestützt wird, so daß sie sich beim Zusammenfalten des Zuschnitts nicht durch die dabei ausgelenkte Zunge nach innen drückt und so einen Spalt zwischen den Seitenwänden bildet. Bei flexiblem Material bringt die Anordnung an der inneren Wand den Vorteil, daß die Zunge durch die Umlenkung über die äußere Wand eine höhere Vorspannung erhält.If the tongue has an edge opposite the folding line and running parallel to it, a particularly secure safeguard against inadvertent opening of the cover is formed. The tongue can be arranged both in the outer and in the inner wall of a multilayer side. In the case of stiff Kaπonmaterial the arrangement on the outer wall is more advantageous because the outer wall through the inner wall is supported so that when the blank is folded it does not press inward through the tongue which is deflected thereby and thus forms a gap between the side walls. In the case of flexible material, the arrangement on the inner wall has the advantage that the tongue receives a higher pretension due to the deflection over the outer wall.
Insbesondere bei steifen Kartonmaterialien ist es vorteilhaft, die Aiüenklinie der Zunge teilweise zu durchtrennen, damit sie leichter umgebogen werden kann. Eine Abschrägung der Seitenkante der Zunge, die der Deckelanlenkung abgewandt ist führt zu einem leichteren Einschnappen der Zunge.In the case of stiff cardboard materials in particular, it is advantageous to partially cut through the tongue steering line so that it can be bent more easily. A bevelling of the side edge of the tongue, which faces away from the hinged cover, leads to an easier snap-in of the tongue.
Diese und weitere Vorteile der erfindungsgemäßen Faltschachtel werden durch die detaillierte Beschreibung von Ausführungsbeispielen verdeutlicht die in beigefügter Zeichnung dargestellt sind. Darin zeigenThese and other advantages of the folding box according to the invention are illustrated by the detailed description of exemplary embodiments which are shown in the attached drawing.

Fig. 1 zeigt den fünfseitigen Zuschnitt einer seitlich befüllbaren Faltschachtel mit einer Aufreißhilfe 11. Der Zuschnitt wird zunächst gefaltet und die Seite 1 wird unterhalb der Aufreißhilfe 11 partiell mit der Seite 5 verklebt, wobei die Seite 1 außen anhegt. Danach wird das Paket aufgerichtet und die Bodenklappen werden in der Reihenfolge 9b, 8b, 10b/6b und zuletzt 7b eingeschlagen und gleichzeitig miteinander verklebt. Das Paket wird mit der noch offenen Seite nach oben gebracht und befüllt. Danach wird die Kopfseite analog dem Boden in der Reihenfolge 9a, 8a, 10a/6a und 7a verschlossen. Anschließend wird das Paket um 90° gedreht und in Gebrauchslage gebracht, wobei die Seite 2 die Oberseite und die Seite 1 die Vorderseite bilden. Beim Öffnen des Paketes an der Aufreißhilfe bildet sich ein Deckel mit dreiseitigem Deckelrand, der an der Rülinie zwischen den Seiten 2 und 3 angelenkt ist. Dieser Deckel weist an der Innenseite zwei Aussparungen 13 auf. Die Faltschachtelbox besitzt einen Kragen, der durch die oberhalb der Aufreißhilfe hegenden Teile der Längsseiten 3 und 5 sowie doppellagig auf den Schmalseiten durch den oberen Teil der außenhegenden Seiten 10a und 10b sowie der innenliegenden Seiten 8a und 8b gebildet wird. Bei dieser Konstruktion sind die Zungen 12 demnach an den innenliegenden Seitenwänden 8a und 8b angelenkt. Beim Schließen des Deckels werden diese Zungen über die Oberkante der Seiten 10a und 10b nach unten umgebogen und schnappen beim vollständigen Schließen des Deckels in die Aussparungen 13 hörbar ein.1 shows the five-sided cut of a laterally fillable folding box with a tear-open aid 11. The cut is first folded and the side 1 is partially glued to the side 5 below the tear-open aid 11, the side 1 being attached to the outside. Then the package is set up and the bottom flaps are turned in in the order 9b, 8b, 10b / 6b and finally 7b and glued together at the same time. The package is brought up and filled with the side still open. Then the head side is closed in the order 9a, 8a, 10a / 6a and 7a analogous to the bottom. The package is then rotated through 90 ° and brought into the position of use, with side 2 forming the top and side 1 forming the front. When opening the package on the tear-open aid, a lid with a three-sided lid edge is formed, which is articulated on the back line between pages 2 and 3. This cover has two cutouts 13 on the inside. The folding box box has a collar which is formed by the parts of the long sides 3 and 5 above the tear-open aid and double-layered on the narrow sides by the upper part of the outer sides 10a and 10b and the inner sides 8a and 8b. In this construction, the tongues 12 are accordingly articulated on the inner side walls 8a and 8b. When the lid is closed, these tongues are bent down over the upper edge of the sides 10a and 10b and snap audibly into the recesses 13 when the lid is completely closed.
Bei steiferem Material können zusätzliche Aussparungen 13' an den Oberkanten der Seitenwände 10a und 10b vorgesehen werden, wie sie in Fig. 1 durch gestrichtelte Linien angedeutet sind. Dann entfällt das Abbiegen der Zunge über die Oberkante der Seiten 10a und 10b.In the case of a more rigid material, additional cutouts 13 ′ can be provided on the upper edges of the side walls 10a and 10b, as indicated by broken lines in FIG. 1. Then the tongue does not have to be bent over the upper edge of the sides 10a and 10b.
Fig. 2 zeigt den entsprechenden Zuschnitt einer Faltsschachtel, bei der die Zungen 12 an den äußeren Seitenwänden 10a und 10b angelenkt sind. Außerdem sind die Seiten 1, 6a und 6b nur halbflächig ausgeführt, so daß sie in einem gewissen Abstand unterhalb der Aufreißhilfe 11 enden. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel weisen die Anlenklinien der Zungen 12 eine teilweise Materialtrennung auf, wodurch sich das Umbiegen der Zunge, insbesondere bei steifen Materiahen, leichter vollzieht. Außerdem weisen die Zungen eine abgeschrägte Innenkante auf.Fig. 2 shows the corresponding blank of a folding box, in which the tongues 12 are hinged to the outer side walls 10a and 10b. In addition, the sides 1, 6a and 6b are only half-surface, so that they end at a certain distance below the tear aid 11. In this exemplary embodiment, the articulation lines of the tongues 12 have a partial material separation, as a result of which the bending of the tongue, particularly in the case of stiff materials, is easier. In addition, the tongues have a bevelled inner edge.
In Fig. 3 ist die obere linke Ecke einer Faltschachtel in geöffentem Zustand perspektivisch dargestellt. Bei dieser Aiisfiihrungsform der Faltschachtel ist die Zunge 12 an der äußeren Schmalseite 10a angelenkt. Durch Abziehen des Aufreißfadens 11 sind die hier sichtbaren Seiten 1 und 6a geteilt worden, so daß sich unter der durch das Entfernen des Aufreißfadens gebildeten Lücke ein schmaler Streifen der Seiten 1 und 6a und oberhalb dieser Lücke die restlichen Teile der Seiten 1 und 6a befinden, die einen Teil des Deckelrandes bilden. Es ist deutlich zu erkennen, daß die Zunge 12 beim öffnen des Deckels 2 durch ihre Rückfederkraft nach oben geschwenkt ist und etwa seitlich von der Faltschachtel steht. Im geöffneten Deckel ist der Ausschnitt der Materialaussparung 13 zu erkennen, die nach außen hin durch die aufgeklebte Seite 7a abgedeckt wird. Wird der Deckel zugeklappt stößt der Deckelrand mit seinem Teil 6a auf die Zunge 12 und biegt diese senkrecht nach unten ab. Der Deckelrand wölbt sich dabei solange etwas nach außen, bis er sieht weit genug nach unten abgesenkt hat damit die Zunge 12 in den durch die Materialaussparung gebildeten Ausschnitt 13 einschnappen kann. Dieses Einschnappen erfolgt deuthch hörbar, so daß der Benutzer die Information hat daß die Ö-Shungssperre in Funktion ist.In Fig. 3 the upper left corner of a folding box is shown in perspective in the open state. In this embodiment of the folding box, the tongue 12 is articulated on the outer narrow side 10a. By pulling off the tear thread 11, the sides 1 and 6a visible here have been divided so that there is a narrow strip of the sides 1 and 6a under the gap formed by the removal of the tear thread and the remaining parts of the sides 1 and 6a above this gap, that form part of the edge of the lid. It can clearly be seen that when the lid 2 is opened, the tongue 12 is pivoted upward by its spring-back force and is approximately to the side of the folding box. In the opened lid, the cutout of the material recess 13 can be seen, which is covered on the outside by the glued-on side 7a. If the lid is closed, the edge of the lid abuts the tongue 12 with its part 6a and bends it vertically downward. The edge of the lid bulges outward until it looks down far enough so that the tongue 12 can snap into the cutout 13 formed by the material recess. This snap is clearly audible, so that the user has the information that the Ö-Shungssperre is in operation.
Die bei geschlossenem Deckel sich ergebende Situation ist in Fig. 4 als Schnittzeichnung entlang der Linie IV-IV aus Fig. 3 dargestellt. Der Schnitt ist so gelegt daß er in den Ausschnitt 13 fällt und nur die vordere Seitenkante der Zunge 12 im nichtgeschnittenen Zustand darstellt. Soll die Schachtel wieder geöffnet werden, kann der Benutzer den Deckel gegen einen gewissen Widerstand der eingeschnappten Zunge anheben. Zur Vereinfachung kann der Benutzer die Schachtel auf beiden Schmalseiten so weit nach innen drücken, daß sich die Zunge 12 von der Anschlagkante 14 löst. Der Deckel springt dann durch seine Rückfederkraft automatisch etwas nach oben und die Schachtel läßt sich leicht öffnen. The situation resulting with the lid closed is shown in FIG. 4 as a sectional drawing along the line IV-IV from FIG. 3. The cut is made so that it falls into the cutout 13 and represents only the front side edge of the tongue 12 in the uncut state. If the box is to be opened again, the user can lift the lid against a certain resistance of the snapped tongue. For simplification, the user can push the box inward on both narrow sides so far that the tongue 12 detaches from the stop edge 14. The lid then jumps up a little automatically due to its spring force and the box can be opened easily.
