Description

Description

The invention relates to a blank, as well as a sleeve-shaped outer part formed from a blank for encasing a cup-shaped container, and a combination packaging container formed from a container and an outer part. The invention further relates to a method for producing a combination packaging container, as well as a method for opening a combination packaging container.

[0002] Due to ever-increasing environmental requirements for products and product packaging, it is becoming increasingly important to enable recycling and, in addition to recycling, reuse. When recycling, it should be possible to separate the different materials according to type in order to improve the recycling quality. In particular, the separation of the different materials should be made as simple as possible so that any human oversights or errors during the recycling process can be compensated for as much as possible. In addition, used products and product packaging should be processed into reusable products and product packaging in a simple and sustainable manner.

[0003] WO 2020/245148 A1 by the same applicant describes a cuff-shaped outer part formed from a blank, the blank being wound into a jacket and the end sections of which are connected to one another in an overlap area. The cuff-shaped outer part, together with a cup-shaped inner container, forms a combination packaging container. A target separation area includes an actuating means with a detection section for the separation of separation sections located on both sides. In a combination packaging container designed in this way, the intended separation area is to be separated after use of the container, which is why separation of the components and subsequent recycling or reuse is not guaranteed.

The object of the present invention was to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and to provide a blank, an outer part and a combination packaging container in which the sleeve-shaped outer part can be easily removed from the container for recycling purposes, and at which ensures that a user carries out this separation.

[0005] This object is achieved by a device and a method according to the claims.

The invention relates to a blank for an outer part for encasing a cup-shaped container, which has a container jacket that has an open end and an end closed with a base, the blank having a basic shape that is essentially in the form of a segment of a circular ring, the blank having a first End section and a second end section, wherein the blank can be wound into a jacket and the first end section and the second end section can be coupled to one another in an overlap area, the blank further having a first end face and a second end face and the first end face and the second End faces are spaced apart from one another, the blank having a longitudinal extent in a direction starting from the first end face to the second end face.

The blank has a receiving area and an area, which area, viewed in the longitudinal extent, is arranged between the receiving area and the second end face.

The blank according to the invention brings with it the surprising advantage that through the receiving area and the area which, viewed in the longitudinal extent, is arranged between the receiving area and the second end face, it can be achieved that the blank and a cup-shaped container wrapped with the blank must be separated from each other in order to enable access to the contents contained in the container. This can ensure improved separation and recycling. In addition, the cut can be used as a high-quality and attractive outer packaging for a container

form, whereby the cut can also fulfill a function as proof of originality and is therefore considered “tamper evident”.

The blank is particularly, but not exclusively, suitable for encasing reusable containers, in particular reusable plastic containers. After being separated from the wrapped container, which is necessary for use of a container, the blank can be recycled largely in its pure form, while a container can be subjected to a reuse process.

The blank can be a part cut from a sheet or a sheet-shaped element, for example from paper, cardboard, or even from a thin plastic sheet. In particular, the receiving area can be a cutout, a hole or an opening in the blank. The recording area can, for example, be cut or punched out of the blank. It is also conceivable that the receiving area comprises an elongated slot or is an elongated slot through which a sealing edge, collar or similar of a container can be passed.

The invention also relates to an outer part for encasing a cup-shaped container, which has a container jacket which has an open end and an end closed with a base, the outer part being formed from a blank, which blank has a basic shape which is essentially in the form of an annular segment , which blank has a first end section and a second end section, the blank being wound into a jacket and the first end section and the second end section being coupled to one another in an overlap area, the outer part further having a first end face and a second end face and the The first end face and the second end face are spaced apart from one another, the outer part having a longitudinal extent in a direction starting from the first end face to the second end face.

The jacket of the outer part has a receiving area and an area, which area, viewed in the longitudinal extent, is arranged between the receiving area and the second end face.

The outer part according to the invention has the surprising advantage that through the receiving area and the area which, viewed in the longitudinal extent, is arranged between the receiving area and the second end face, it can be achieved that the outer part and a cup-shaped container wrapped with the outer part must be separated from each other in order to enable access to the contents contained in the container. This can ensure improved separation and recycling. In addition, the outer part can form a high-quality and attractive outer packaging for a container, whereby the outer part can also fulfill a function as proof of originality and is therefore considered “tamper evident”.

The outer part is particularly, but not exclusively, suitable for encasing reusable containers, in particular reusable plastic containers. After the outer part has been separated from the wrapped container, which is necessary for use of a container, it can be recycled largely in a sorted manner, while a container can be subjected to a reuse process.

[0013] Furthermore, it can be provided that the receiving area has a first receiving area end and a second receiving area end, wherein the first receiving area end faces the first end section of the blank and wherein the second receiving area end faces the second end section of the blank, whereby the first recording area end and the second recording area end are spaced apart from one another.

This has the advantage that a receiving area, for example a breakthrough, a recess or a hole, is created with a geometry which can be easily manufactured and which is good for receiving areas of a container, as well as for outer packaging a container, is suitable.

[0015] It is clear to those skilled in the art that it can also be that the first receiving area end faces the first end section of the outer part and the second receiving area end faces the second end section of the outer part, the first receiving area end and the second receiving area -Ends are spaced apart. This is just an example of the use of the terms blank and external part in this document. Precisely because the outer part is formed by a blank, the two terms can have a synonymous meaning. This is particularly true if the blank is wrapped into a jacket and thereby forms a cuff-shaped outer part.

[0016] In addition, it can be provided that the first receiving area end and the second receiving area end are spaced apart from one another by a receiving area length, which length is from 5% to 75%, preferably from 5% to 50%, of a receiving area. The circumference of the jacket is. If there are several recording areas, a sum of all recording area lengths can be from 5% to 75%, preferably from 5% to 50%. The receiving area jacket circumference means the circumference of the circular cross section, which circular cross section lies 90° through the receiving area to the jacket axis when looking at the outer part wound into a jacket. The receiving area jacket circumference is expediently the same size or slightly larger than the maximum circumference of a container to be encased, or its maximum circumference in the area of the open end.

This shape of the receiving area has the advantage that a container can be reliably accommodated, or areas of a container can be reliably accommodated. The exact length, i.e. an absolute value of the length, depends on the shape and size of the container to be covered with the outer part, and above all on the maximum diameter or circumference of the open end. In particular if several recording areas are provided, the length of the individual recording areas can be shorter.

[0018] An embodiment is also advantageous, according to which it can be provided that the receiving area has a circular ring segment-shaped basic shape, which is concentric with the circular ring segment-shaped basic shape of the blank, and that the receiving area has a first receiving area end face, which is the first receiving area end face facing the first end face and wherein the receiving area has a second receiving area end face, which second receiving area end face faces the second end face, the first receiving area end face and the second receiving area end face being spaced apart from one another, the receiving area having a receiving area height in one direction starting from the first receiving area end face to the second receiving area end face.

This shape of the receiving area has the advantage that a container can be reliably received. In addition, such a design can also be comparatively simple and cost-efficient to produce. The annular segment-shaped basic shape of the receiving area means that the first receiving area end face is shorter than the second receiving area end face. In this way, in a jacket-shaped or sleeve-shaped state of the outer part, it can be ensured that the receiving area is particularly well suited for receiving a container or areas of a container. A distance between the two end faces from one another, i.e. a recording area height, can advantageously be constant. A receiving area height expediently corresponds to the height of an area of a container intended for receiving in the receiving area, for example a flange including a closure element, such as a sealing plate, lid or similar. It is particularly useful if the height of the receiving area is slightly larger than the area of a container intended for receiving.

According to a further development, it is possible for the second receiving area end face facing the second end face to be spaced from the second end face by a first length when viewed in the longitudinal extent of the outer part. The first length thus defines a height of the area that lies above the recording area. If the outer part is wrapped around a container and thus encases a container, the area with its first

Length or part of its first length extends beyond the upper end of the container. It may also be the case that the first length varies. This is particularly true if the second end face of the outer part does not follow an exact circular arc shape, but is, for example, wave-shaped.

[0021] Furthermore, it may be expedient if the second receiving area end face facing the second end face is spaced from the first end face by a second length, viewed in the longitudinal extent of the outer part. It may also be the case that the second length varies. This is particularly true if the first end face of the outer part does not follow an exact circular arc shape, but is, for example, wave-shaped. It has also proven to be expedient that the second length is larger than the first length.

[0022] In addition, it can be provided that the maximum first length and the maximum second length define a maximum circular ring segment height, which circular ring segment height corresponds in particular to a maximum longitudinal extent of the outer part or a maximum overall height.

[0023] Furthermore, it can be provided that the first end face and/or the second end face are designed in the shape of a circular arc, or that the first end face and/or the second end face are designed in the shape of a wave or sinusoid.

This has the advantage that an outer part shaped in this way can be particularly suitable for wrapping a container. In addition, a visual appearance can be attractive and individually designed. This of course applies to the outer part in its state as a blank or in its state that has not yet been wound into a jacket or a cuff. If the outer part is wound into a jacket or a sleeve, the first and second end faces are advantageously arranged parallel or at least substantially parallel to one another. It has also proven to be advantageous that wave-shaped or sinusoidal end faces essentially follow a circular arc shape, or follow the basic shape of the outer part in the form of an annular segment. A certain concentricity of the design has proven to be useful.

[0025] It is also conceivable that the first receiving area end face and/or the second receiving area end face are designed in the shape of a circular arc, or that the first receiving area end face and/or the second receiving area end face are designed in the form of waves or sinusoids.

According to a particular embodiment, it is possible for the jacket of the outer part to have a second receiving area and a second area, which second area, viewed in the longitudinal extent of the outer part, is arranged between the second receiving area and the second end face.

This has the advantage that two receiving areas have proven to be particularly suitable for reliably wrapping containers of certain geometries or for receiving them in certain areas. Advantageously, when viewing the sleeve-shaped outer part in the circumferential direction, the two receiving areas lie at least essentially on the same circumference or at the same height. The two receiving areas can have the same basic shape, but also a different basic shape. The area and the second area can have the same height in the circumferential direction, i.e. between the second end face and the respective receiving area end face. But different heights are also conceivable.

[0028] According to an advantageous development, it can be provided that the receiving area and the second receiving area are at least essentially of the same dimensions, and that the receiving area and the second receiving area are arranged opposite one another in the jacket of the outer part.

This has the advantage that a substantially symmetrical arrangement of the receiving areas and areas can be achieved. This can be both with regard to a

optical appearance as well as in terms of functionality can be advantageous. It is also conceivable that further similarly dimensioned or differently shaped receiving areas are provided.

In particular, it can be advantageous for a predetermined separation area to be provided in the casing of the outer part, which predetermined separation area extends in a direction starting from the first end face to the receiving area, in particular to the first receiving area end face, or which predetermined separation area extends in a direction starting from the first end face extends to the second end face.

This has the advantage that the provision of a desired separation area makes it easier to separate the outer part from a container. In particular, a desired separation region which is formed along the second length described above can be advantageous. It may be sufficient if the desired separation area does not extend over the entire longitudinal extent or overall height of the jacket of the outer part, but only extends from the lower first end face towards the first receiving area end face. It is also conceivable that the predetermined separation area is designed in such a way that when the predetermined separation area is separated, not the entire outer part is separated, but rather that it remains partially on the container, but a user still has access to the container contents, or a closure element after the partial can be removed.

[0032] Target separation areas are generally known to those skilled in the art in many forms. The term elevation is also used. For example, a target separation area is conceivable, as disclosed in WO 2020/245148 A1 by the applicant of the same name. It is also conceivable that the overlap area of the end sections of the outer part is also the target separation area. For this purpose, the overlap area can be designed, for example, as a detachable adhesive connection between the mutually overlapping end sections.

[0033] Furthermore, it can be provided that the area is designed with a fold line, which fold line is formed concentrically to the jacket of the outer part with respect to a longitudinal axis of the jacket of the outer part, and that the area between the fold line and the second end face has a fold area, which folding area can be folded in the radial direction, i.e. inwards, to the longitudinal axis of the jacket of the outer part, and which folding area optionally has a tab, which tab can be coupled to the second receiving area.

[0034] This has the advantage that the provision of a folding area makes it possible to completely or partially cover the open end of a container. With the help of the folding area, for example, the area or part of the area can be folded in the direction of a longitudinal axis of the container, i.e. virtually inwards. This can be useful both for decorative purposes and to improve lateral pressure stability. This is particularly the case when a wrapped container is closed at its open end with a closure element that has comparatively little resistance to lateral pressure, for example with a thin circuit board or film. In the unwound state of the outer part, the fold line is essentially circular arc-shaped and parallel to the first or second end face, or concentric with respect to the center of the circle of the circular segment-shaped outer part.

[0035] According to an advantageous development, it can also be provided that the blank or the outer part is formed from a cellulose material or comprises a cellulose material. On the one hand, this can improve the printing and visual design of a container covered with the sleeve-shaped outer part and, on the other hand, reduce the amount of plastic material that needs to be disposed of. A further preferred embodiment is characterized in that the cellulose material is formed from a recycled material or comprises a recycled material. This allows raw material resources to be saved. Alternatively, it is also conceivable that the blank or the outer part comprises a polymer material or a composite material.

The invention also relates to a combination packaging container comprising a cup-shaped container, the container having a container jacket which has an open end and

has an end closed with a base,

- an outer part which encases the container, the outer part being formed from a blank, which blank has a substantially circular segment-shaped basic shape, which blank has a first end section and a second end section, the blank being wound into a jacket and the first End section and the second end section are coupled to one another in an overlap area, the outer part further having a first end face and a second end face and the first end face and the second end face being spaced apart from one another, the outer part having a longitudinal extent in a direction starting from the first end face has a second end face,

- and a closure element, which closure element releasably closes the open end of the container.

The jacket of the outer part has a receiving area and an area, which area, viewed in the longitudinal extent, is arranged between the receiving area and the second end face. A region of the open end and/or a region of the closure element of the container is accommodated in the receiving region of the jacket of the outer part.

The combination packaging container according to the invention has the surprising advantage that through the receiving area and the area which, viewed in the longitudinal extent, is arranged between the receiving area and the second end face, it can be achieved that the outer part and the one wrapped with the outer part cup-shaped containers must be separated from each other in order to enable access to a filling material contained in the container. This can ensure improved separation and recycling. In addition, the outer part can form a high-quality and attractive outer packaging for a container, whereby the outer part can also fulfill a function as proof of originality and is therefore considered “tamper evident”.

The outer part is particularly, but not exclusively, suitable for encasing reusable containers, in particular reusable plastic containers. After the outer part has been separated from the wrapped container, which is necessary for use of a container, it can be recycled largely in a sorted manner, while a container can be subjected to a reuse process.

[0039] By accommodating a region of the open end and/or a region of the closure element of the container in the receiving region of the jacket of the outer part, it is ensured that a user only gains access to the contents of the container when he removes the outer part and thereafter - as is known per se - the closure element is removed. Precisely because this separation is absolutely necessary due to the design, it is also guaranteed that the outer part can be recycled separately, and the user is also guaranteed that the container can be opened for the first time.

This design can ensure that the outer part is essentially locked in the direction of its longitudinal extent or in the axial direction of the longitudinal axis of the container by the coupling with the open end of the cup-shaped container, so that an axial movement or an axial displacement of the outer part relative to the container is prevented or at least largely restricted or limited. It can also be expedient if, by accommodating the container in the receiving area of the outer part, a radial movement of the outer part relative to the container is also prevented or limited. For this purpose, in the area of the open end of the container, corresponding extensions can be formed, for example, projecting in the radial direction to the longitudinal axis, which can interact with the end sections of the receiving area, so to speak as a stop means.

The closure element can be a film, for example a sealing plate or sealing film. However, the closure element can alternatively or additionally also be designed as a lid, for example as a screw lid or as a hinged lid with a hinge. A closure element designed as an impact lid or as a preil lid is also conceivable. Depending on the design of the closure element, the open end can be with a

Sealing edge, a flange, a collar, a striking edge, a thread, etc. can be formed. In any case, it can be expedient if an area of the open end protrudes in the radial direction relative to the longitudinal axis or the cone axis beyond the container jacket and also beyond the jacket of the outer part, so that this protruding area can be reliably accommodated in the receiving area.

[0042] An embodiment is also advantageous, according to which it can be provided that the area of the outer part extends over the open end of the container when viewed in the longitudinal extent.

According to a further development, it is possible for the closure element to be designed in such a way that removal is only possible after the outer part has been removed from the container.

[0044] This has the advantage that proof of first opening can be made possible.

[0045] Furthermore, it may be expedient if the closure element is connected to the jacket of the outer part and that the closure element is designed in such a way that removal is possible at the same time as removal of the outer part from the container.

This has the advantage that use is made easier because both the outer part and the closure element can be removed in a common operation. Particularly if the outer part is designed with a folding area, this folding area or a tab on the folding area can be connected or glued to the closure element, in particular to a sealing film, so that the sealing foil can be removed together with the folding area. This can also make recycling easier. This is particularly true if the closure element and the outer part remain connected to one another even after removal, and if the closure element and the outer part are at least essentially made of materials that can be recycled together.

[0047] In addition, it can be provided that the jacket of the outer part extends over a part of the container jacket, preferably extends between a quarter and two thirds of the container jacket. As a result, no part of the container height is covered by the outer part, with the part of the container shell facing the container bottom remaining uncovered by the outer part and thus visible to a viewer. In particular, it may be that the jacket of the outer part extends over a part of the container jacket when viewed in the longitudinal extent. As a result, part of the container height of the container is covered by the jacket of the outer part.

[0048] This has the advantage that sustainability can be improved by saving material.

[0049] Furthermore, it can be provided that the area is formed with a fold line, which fold line is formed concentrically to the jacket of the outer part with respect to a longitudinal axis of the jacket of the outer part, and that the area between the fold line and the second end face has a fold area , which folding area is folded in the radial direction to the longitudinal axis of the jacket of the outer part, so that the folding area partially or completely covers the open end, in particular the closure element.

This has the advantage that the provision of a folding area makes it possible to completely or partially cover the open end of a container. With the help of the folding area, for example, the area or part of the area can be folded in the direction of a longitudinal axis of the container, i.e. virtually inwards. This can be useful both for decorative purposes and to improve lateral pressure stability. This is particularly the case when a wrapped container is closed at its open end with a closure element that has comparatively little resistance to lateral pressure, for example with a circuit board or film.

[0051] According to a special embodiment, it is possible for the folding area to be a tab

which tab is coupled to the second receiving area.

[0052] This has the advantage that it enables a stable additional covering of the closure element. The second receiving area advantageously fulfills an additional function, i.e. in addition to receiving an area of the container it also has a coupling function with the tab.

[0053] According to an advantageous development, it can be provided that the container jacket of the container and the jacket of the outer part are essentially frusto-conical and are arranged around a common cone axis, and that a first angle between the container jacket of the container and the cone axis is the same size or larger is as a second angle between the shell of the outer part and the cone axis.

This has the advantage that it enables a good connection or coupling between the outer part and the container.

[0055] Depending on the specific shape of the container or the outer part, it may be that the longitudinal axis and the cone axis are identical or congruent.

[0056] In particular, it can be advantageous if the open end and/or the closure element has a collar projecting over the container jacket of the container in the radial direction to the cone axis, i.e. when viewing the container at 90° to the cone axis, with a third angle between the Cone axis and an imaginary cutting line is formed, which imaginary cutting line extends from an outermost point of the collar to the cone axis and intersects the first end face, the third angle being larger than the second angle. An outermost point of the collar is a point furthest away from the longitudinal axis or from the cone axis in the radial direction. Of course, with a symmetrical design, it can be the case that several such outermost points, in particular a circumferential outermost circle, are formed on the collar, on which circle the outermost points lie.

This has the advantage that it enables a good connection or coupling between the outer part and the container.

Depending on the type and design of the container and the closure element, it may be expedient if the collar is designed with a flange, with a thread or with a striking edge.

The collar can be circular and, when viewing the container, extend constantly outwards over the jacket in the axial direction. However, it can also be the case that the open end has a collar that projects over the container jacket in some areas. This means that the open end is formed, for example, with extensions or beaks which extend over the container jacket of the container in the radial direction to the cone axis, i.e. when looking at the container at 90° to the cone axis. These extensions or beaks can be accommodated as the area of the open end and/or as the area of the closure element of the container in the receiving area of the jacket of the outer part. A collar that projects over the container jacket in some areas can also be realized, for example, by an elliptical collar, which extends in the radial direction to the cone axis, i.e. when looking at the container at 90 ° to the cone axis, at, for example, two opposite positions over the container jacket of the container. Such an elliptical collar can be accommodated as the area of the open end and/or as the area of the closure element of the container in the receiving area of the jacket of the outer part.

[0060] Furthermore, it can be provided that the container is a reusable container, in particular a reusable container comprising a plastic material.

This has the advantage that the sustainability of the combination packaging container can be further improved. In addition, it can also be advantageous if the plastic material is a recycled material, or is at least partially formed from a recycled material.

[0062] According to an advantageous development, it can be provided that the container has an alignment means, in particular a groove or an elevation, in the area of its base.

which is designed to fix and/or position the container.

The alignment means formed in the floor, in particular on the underside of the floor, can be designed as a projection or as a recess. By coupling a coupling means of a device for attaching the outer part to the container with this alignment means in the bottom of the container, the latter can be fixed and also aligned. This can make it easier to attach the outer part both in the case of wrapping and in the case of axial sliding. The alignment means can also be designed, for example, as a toothing in the bottom of the container. A tool or a coupling means of a device can intervene in the alignment means, for example through toothing, spreading effect, and vacuum or negative pressure.

The invention also relates to a method for producing a combination packaging container. The procedure includes the following steps:

- Providing a cup-shaped container, the container having a container jacket which has an open end and an end closed with a base,

- filling the container with a filling product,

- closing the open end of the container with a releasable closure element,

- Providing a blank, which blank has a substantially annular segment-shaped basic shape, the blank having a first end portion and a second end portion, the blank further having a first end face and a second end face and wherein the first end face and the second end face are spaced apart from one another , wherein the blank has a longitudinal extension in a direction starting from the first end face to the second end face, and wherein the blank has a receiving area and an area, which area, viewed in the longitudinal extent, is arranged between the receiving area and the second end face,

- Forming an outer part from the blank by wrapping the container with the blank, or forming an outer part from the blank and pushing the outer part axially onto the container, _

wherein the first end section and the second end section are coupled to one another in an overlap region, with the first end face facing the bottom and the second end face facing the open end of the container, and wherein a region of the open end and / or a region of the closure element of the container in recorded in the recording area.

The method according to the invention for producing a combination packaging container has the surprising advantage that - especially when the method is carried out in the order described - a combination packaging container as described above and with the above can be produced in an efficient manner can be produced with the advantages described.

In principle, an alternative sequence of the method steps described would also be conceivable. For example, it can also be the case that the container is initially covered with the outer part or that the outer part is attached to the container and that the container is only then filled and closed. It is necessary here that the open end of the container is designed in such a way that it is still possible to attach a closure even when the outer part is installed.

Forming an outer part from the blank by wrapping it around the container can be done by wrapping it directly onto the container. For this purpose, it can be provided that the container is placed on a winding mandrel.

[0068] It is also conceivable if, instead of directly wrapping the outer part around the container, the outer part is formed by axially pushing the outer part onto the container, with the first end face facing the bottom and the second end face facing the open end of the inner container . Specifically, the shaping of the outer part and connecting the first end section and the second end section in the overlap area can be carried out in a separate process step, and the outer part thus shaped can only be pushed onto the inner container by axial displacement from below in a further process step.

The invention also relates to a method for opening a combination packaging container, in particular an initial opening of a filled and originally sealed combination packaging container. The combination packaging container comprises a cup-shaped container, the container having a container shell which has an open end, which open end is closed with a closure element, and which has an end closed with a base. The combination packaging container further comprises an outer part, which outer part encases the container, the outer part being formed from a blank, which blank has a substantially circular segment-shaped basic shape, which blank has a first end portion and a second end portion, the blank forming a Jacket is wound and the first end portion and the second end portion are coupled to one another in an overlap area, the outer part further having a first end face and a second end face and the first end face and the second end face are spaced apart from one another, the outer part having a longitudinal extension in one Direction starting from the first end face to the second end face, wherein a predetermined separation area is provided in the jacket of the outer part, and wherein the jacket of the outer part has a receiving area and a region, which area, viewed in the longitudinal extent, is arranged between the receiving area and the second end face, wherein a region of the open end and/or a region of the closure element is accommodated in the receiving region.

The procedure includes procedural steps:

- Separating the outer part from the container by opening the target separation area,

- Removing the closure element from the open end of the container.

The separation of the outer part from the container by opening the desired separation area can be complete, as well as partial or partial. In the case of a partial separation, the outer part or a part of the outer part is in any case separated in such a way that the closure element can be removed after removal.

The method according to the invention for opening a combination packaging container has the surprising advantage that a user is shown, or is guaranteed, that he is carrying out the initial opening of the originally closed container. In addition, a user is essentially forced to separate the outer part from the container and is thus encouraged to recycle it because otherwise he would not have access to the contents of the container. This makes a significant contribution to sustainability. This is particularly true if the opening or initial opening procedure is carried out in the order described.

For a better understanding of the invention, it will be explained in more detail using the following figures.

[0073] They each show, in a highly simplified, schematic representation: [0074] FIG. 1 shows a representation of a blank, [0075] FIG.

The figures are largely described in summary below in order to avoid unnecessary repetitions. Special features and differences between the figures and exemplary embodiments will be discussed in more detail.

1 and 2 show two flat blanks 13 as examples of a variety of possible different shapes, wherein the blanks 13 can be wound into a sleeve-shaped outer part 12 or into a jacket.

[0086] In particular, it is provided that the flat blank 13 has a basic shape essentially in the form of an annular segment, the blank 13 having a first end section 14 and a second end section 15. The two end sections 14, 15 are preferably each aligned along an imaginary line to the center of the circular ring segment-shaped basic shape. The blank 13 can be wound into a jacket. The first end section 14 and the second end section 15 can be coupled to one another in an overlap area 16. By winding the blank, the end sections 14, 15 can be connected to one another in an overlap area 16, shown in simplified form. This can be done by a so-called U-overlap seam, by means of which the first end section 14 and the second end section 15 adhere to one another, for example by means of an adhesive layer 49. The first end section 14 of the blank 13 ends with a first longitudinal edge 17 and the second end section 15 in turn ends with a second longitudinal edge 18. The two longitudinal edges 17, 18 can, when viewing the blank 13 in its flat state or in its unwound state , preferably aligned along an imaginary line to the center of the circular ring segment-shaped basic shape. Furthermore, the blank 13 can have a longitudinal edge length 50 in the area of the first end section 14, in particular on the first longitudinal edge 17. When considering the longitudinal edge length 50, any shortening of the actual longitudinal edge length due to a rounding or a chamfer is ignored here.

In the overlap area 16 and in the wound state, the two longitudinal edges 17, 18 run approximately parallel to one another, with the overlap area 16 being formed between them with an overlap width, viewed in the circumferential direction of the jacket. In particular, it can be provided that in the wound state of the outer part 12, the second end section 15 is folded over the first end section 14 on the outside. It goes without saying that an arrangement is also conceivable in which the first end section 14 is folded over the second end section 15 on the outside.

[0088] The blank 13, or an outer part 12 formed from the blank 13, further has a first end face 19 and a second end face 20, the first end face 19 and the second end face 20 being spaced apart from one another, the blank 13 or the outer part 12 has a longitudinal extension 22 in a direction starting from the first end face 19 to the second end face 20. The end faces are preferably essentially concentric with respect to the center of the circular ring segment-shaped basic shape. The two end faces 19, 20, which are spaced apart from one another, define the external

partly 12 a height 21 of the jacket. In particular, if the jacket of the outer part 12 is conical, the overall height 21 corresponds geometrically to a height of the cone when viewed in axial section. In particular, if the jacket of the outer part 12 is conical, the longitudinal extension 22, when viewed in axial section, is geometrically the length of the surface line. A substantially circular segment-shaped blank 13 inevitably results in a conical jacket when it is wound into a jacket. Accordingly, the maximum longitudinal extent 22 in the case of a conical jacket of the outer part 12 is generally greater than the overall height 21 of the jacket. The previously described longitudinal axis 8 can also define the common longitudinal axis for the outer part 12, in particular when the outer part 12 is in its mounted position on the container 2. In most cases, the overall height 21 of the jacket is slightly lower than the container height 9 of the container 2 in the same spatial direction - namely in the direction of the longitudinal axis 8.

The blank 13, or the outer part 12 formed from it, has a receiving area 23 and an area 24, which area 24, viewed in the longitudinal extension 22, is arranged between the receiving area 23 and the second end face 20. The receiving area 23 is designed as a recess, cutout, hole or as a breakthrough in the blank 13 or in the outer part 12.

1 and 2 has a first receiving area end 25 and a second receiving area end 26, the first receiving area end 25 facing the first end section 14 of the blank 13 and the second receiving area End 26 faces the second end section 15 of the blank 13, the first receiving area end 25 and the second receiving area end 26 being spaced apart from one another. The receiving area 23 thus has an elongated basic shape. The first receiving area end 25 and the second receiving area end 26 can be spaced apart by a length 27, which length 27 can be from 5% to 75% of a receiving area jacket circumference of the jacket.

[0091] The receiving area 23 can have a circular ring segment-shaped basic shape, which is concentric with the circular ring segment-shaped basic shape of the blank 13. The receiving area 23 can further have a first receiving area end face 28, which first receiving area end face 28 faces the first end face 19 and the receiving area 23 has a second receiving area end face 29, which second receiving area end face 29 faces the second end face 20. The first receiving area end face 28 and the second receiving area end face 29 can be spaced apart from one another, with the receiving area 23 having a receiving area height 30 in a direction starting from the first receiving area end face 28 to the second receiving area end face 29. The receiving area height 30 can be adapted to the type and design of the container 2 to be encased, or the area 40, 41 to be received.

[0092] The second receiving area end face 29 facing the second end face 20 can be spaced from the second end face 20 by a first length 31, viewed in the longitudinal extension 22 of the outer part 12. The second receiving area end face 29 facing the second end face 20 can be spaced from the first end face 19 by a second length 32 when viewed in the longitudinal extent 22 of the outer part 12. The maximum first length 31 and the maximum second length 32 or the sum of the two lengths 31, 32 can define a maximum circular ring segment height 33, which maximum circular ring segment height 33 in particular a maximum longitudinal extent 22 or a maximum surface line of the conical outer part 12 or a maximum Construction height corresponds to 21.

The first end face 19 and the second end face 20 can be designed in the shape of a circular arc, as shown in FIG. However, it can also be the case that the first end face 19 is in the shape of a circular arc and that the second end face 20 is wave-shaped or sinusoidal. This is shown as an example in FIG. 2. It goes without saying that these two configurations are merely examples of various conceivable shapes. In any case, the first end face 19 and the second end face 20 essentially follow a circular arc shape

and are essentially concentric with respect to a circle center of the circular segment-shaped basic shape.

1 and 2, or an outer part 12 formed therefrom, has a second receiving area 34 and a second area 35, which second area 35, viewed in the longitudinal extension 22 of the outer part 12, is between the second receiving area 34 and the second end face 20 is arranged. The receiving area 23 and the second receiving area 34 are of the same dimensions in the examples shown. The two areas 24, 35 above the receiving areas 23, 34 are also dimensioned the same. The two blanks 13 shown are designed and symmetrical in such a way that the receiving area 23 and the second receiving area 34 are arranged opposite one another in the wound state, that is to say in the jacket of the outer part 12.

A predetermined separation area 36 is also provided in the blank 13 or in the jacket of the outer part 12. In Fig. 1, the desired separation area 36 is designed as a so-called elevation, for example in the sense of WO 2020/245148 A1 by the applicant of the same name. The predetermined separation area 36 extends in a direction starting from the first end face 19 to the receiving area 23, in particular to the first receiving area end face 28. A further embodiment is shown in FIG. 2, with the predetermined separation area 36 extending in a direction starting from the first End face 19 extends to the second end face 20. The predetermined separation area 36 is provided in the overlap area 16 of the end sections 14, 15 or the longitudinal edges 17, 18. For this purpose, the overlap area 16 can be designed, for example, as a detachable adhesive connection.

7 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a blank 13 or an outer part 12, the area 24 being formed with a fold line 37. When viewed in the wound state, the fold line 37 is formed concentrically to the jacket of the outer part 12 with respect to a longitudinal axis 8 of the jacket of the outer part 12. When viewed in a flat state, the fold line 37 is concentric with respect to the center of the circle of the circular segment-shaped blank 13 or outer part 12. The area 24 between the fold line 37 and the second end face 20 has a fold area 38. In the example, the folding area 38 has a substantially round basic shape, which can at least approximately correspond to the circular cross section in the area of the open end of the container to be covered. This folding area 38 can be folded, particularly in the wound jacket-shaped or conical state, in the radial direction towards the longitudinal axis 8 of the jacket of the outer part 12, i.e. folded inwards. In addition, the folding area 38 can have a tab 51, which tab 51 can be coupled, i.e. brought into engagement, with the second receiving area 34, which is opposite in the wound state.

3 shows an exemplary embodiment of a combination packaging container 1 as an example of a variety of possible different shapes, the combination packaging containers 1 being cup-shaped or bowl-shaped. The combination packaging container 1 is shown partially cut through the longitudinal axis 8 in FIG. The combination packaging container 1 comprises a cup-shaped or bowl-shaped container 2 with a base 3 and a container jacket 4. The container 2 also has an open end 5 on its side facing away from the base 3. Furthermore, in the area of its open end 5, a flange 6 projecting outwards over the container jacket 4 can be provided. The bottom 3 forms a closed end 7 for the container jacket 4. The container 2 has a substantially conical or truncated cone-shaped basic shape. When looking at the combination packaging container 1 in the front view shown, the combination packaging container 1 has a total height 10 which extends from the bottom 3 to the highest area of the second end face 20 of the outer part 12. The total height 10 is therefore greater than the container height 9 and also greater than the overall height 21 of the outer part 12.

The container 2 is preferably formed by a component produced in a deep-drawing process, which can be produced quickly and, above all, in a short cycle time. The process of deep drawing is well known and will therefore not be discussed in more detail. The deep-drawing

The process is particularly suitable for producing the container 2 with a sufficient wall thickness from a layer to be formed made of a formable material using a deep-drawing tool, which ensures tightness during storage, use and even disposal. This manufacturing process allows relatively thin wall thicknesses of the inner container 2 to be manufactured. The container 2 can also be formed using other manufacturing processes, such as an injection molding process.

Due to the cup or bowl-shaped design of the container 2, a longitudinal axis 8 extends in the axial direction between the open end 5 and the end 7 closed with the base 3, which can also represent a central axis if it is symmetrical. In the area of the flange 6 it is possible to arrange or connect a closure element 39, for example a sealing plate. In this case, the flange 6 forms a sealing flange.

In the axial direction and thus in the direction of the longitudinal axis 8, the container 2 has a container height 9 between its open end 5, in particular the flange 6, and the base 3, whereby the holding volume of the container 2 is determined depending on the cross-sectional dimensions. A receiving space for the container 2 is thus defined by the container height 9 in conjunction with the cross-sectional dimensions.

The container jacket 4 is understood to be that section of the container 2 which extends between the open end 5, in particular the flange 6, and the base 3 in a predominantly axial direction. The container 2 is preferably designed with its container jacket 4 in such a way that it preferably tapers conically starting from the open end 5 towards the bottom 3, i.e. is essentially frustoconical. In this design, the longitudinal axis 8 corresponds to the cone axis 42.

The combination packaging container 1 further comprises an outer part 12, which is sleeve-shaped or jacket-shaped and surrounds the container 2 in the area of its container jacket 4 at least in sections or areas.

The cuff-shaped outer part 12 is preferably formed from a cellulose material, such as a cardboard material, with sufficient strength with regard to the absorption and transmission of particularly axially acting compressive forces and is wound from a flat blank 13 to form a jacket. The blank 13 is usually printed in its undeformed flat position and, if necessary, provided with an additional coating. In particular, it is of course also conceivable that the blank 13 is designed in several parts. A cellulose material is usually used as the material for the blank 13, although this can also be cardboard or strong paper produced using a recycling process. If a layer or layer of the outer part 12 is formed from a recycled material, an additional layer made of a higher quality paper can be arranged on or connected to at least one of the surfaces. This additional layer is used for flawless printing to produce decorations, labels and product information.

The sleeve-like or jacket-like outer part 12 leads to an additional reinforcing or stiffening effect of the container 2 and thus of the entire combination packaging container 1. This ensures, on the one hand, high strength and good thermal insulation and, on the other hand, optimal light protection for the contents of the packaging container.

In particular, it can also be provided that the cardboard is additionally coated or sealed with a water-repellent material in the area of the cut edges. This is particularly advantageous when the combination packaging containers 1 are exposed to increased moisture. Coating the cardboard used for the outer part 12 with a water-repellent layer prevents the cardboard from swelling in a humid environment and ultimately from detaching from the container jacket 4 of the combination packaging container 1.

The container 2 can preferably be a reusable container, which is or comprises in particular a plastic material or a recycled plastic material.

[00107] It can also be that the container 2 has an alignment means 52 in the area of its base 3, in particular, as shown schematically in FIG. 3, a groove or an elevation, which is used to fix and/or position the container 2 is trained.

The jacket of the outer part 12 has a receiving area 23 and an area 24, which area 24, viewed in the longitudinal extension 22, is arranged between the receiving area 23 and the second end face 20. The outer part 12 is wrapped around the container 2, so that a region 40 of the open end 5, as well as a region 41 of the closure element 39 of the container 2, is accommodated in the receiving region 23 of the jacket of the outer part 12. The areas 40, 41, as well as part of the flange 6 or part of a collar 45, when viewing the combination packaging container 1 in axial section, protrude in a connecting line between the longitudinal axis 8 or the cone axis 42 and the imaginary, shortest, straight line Areas 40, 41 beyond the jacket of the outer part 12.

3 also shows that the region 24 of the outer part 12, viewed in the longitudinal extension 22, can extend over the open end 5 of the container 2, i.e. it projects beyond the open end 5 and the closure element 39.

The closure element 39 is designed or arranged in such a way that removal is only possible after the outer part 12 has been removed from the container 2. This is realized in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 3 in that the closure element 39 is partially accommodated in the receiving areas 23, 34.

[00111] It would also be conceivable, but is not shown, for the closure element 39 to be connected to the jacket of the outer part 12, and for the closure element 39 to be designed in such a way that removal is possible at the same time as the outer part 12 is removed from the container 2 . For example, the closure element 39 can be designed as a sealing plate, which sealing plate can be glued or otherwise connected to the jacket of the outer part 12, so that the sealing plate is also removed when the outer part 12 is separated.

The jacket of the outer part 12 can extend over part of the container jacket 4. The jacket of the outer part 12 preferably extends over a part of the container jacket 4, which corresponds to a quarter to two thirds of the container jacket 4. In Fig. 3, as well as in the three-dimensional representations of combination packaging containers 1 in Figs. 4 to 6, outer parts 12 are shown with different high surface lines or different maximum longitudinal extents 22. As a result, the parts of the container 2 that are visible to a viewer are of different sizes.

The container jacket 4 of the container 2 and the jacket of the outer part 12 can be essentially frustoconical as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6 and can be arranged around a common cone axis 42. 3 shows that a first angle 43 between the container jacket 4 of the container 2 and the cone axis 42 is larger than a second angle 44 between the jacket of the outer part 12 and the cone axis 42.

3 shows that the open end 5 and the closure element 39 have a collar 45 projecting over the container jacket 4 of the container 2 in the radial direction to the cone axis 42, a third angle 48 is formed between the cone axis 42 and an imaginary cutting line 46, which imaginary cutting line 46 extends from an outermost point of the collar 45 to the cone axis 42 and intersects the first end face 19, the third angle 48 being larger than the second angle 44.

4 to 6 each show a three-dimensional view of an exemplary embodiment of a combination packaging container 1, the examples each being representative of a large number of conceivable shapes. Reference is made to the previous parts of the description and, in order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the special features of the variants shown will be discussed below.

The combination packaging container 1 shown in FIG. 4 is covered with an outer part 12, which has a wave-shaped second end face 20. The container 2 is closed with a closure element 39 designed as a sealing plate or film, and a collar 45 or a flange 6 in the area of the open end 5 protrude from the receiving area 23 of the outer part 12 in the radial direction to the longitudinal axis 8 or to the cone axis 42 . 4 also shows that a predetermined separation area 36 is provided below the receiving area 23, which extends along the surface line in the longitudinal extension 22 from the first end face 19 to the first receiving area end face 28.

The combination packaging container 1 shown in FIG. 5 is also covered with an outer part 12, the outer part 12 being longer in comparison to the example shown in FIG. covered or covered. In addition, the second end face 20 is also wave-shaped, but compared to, for example, in FIG. 4, it has two instead of three wave crests or elevations. In addition, it can also be seen in FIG. 5 that a second receiving area 34 is provided, from which the collar 45 or the flange 6 of the container 2 protrudes.

6 shows another combination packaging container 1, which is also covered with an outer part 12. The second end face 20 of the outer part 12 is also wave-shaped here, but only has a wave crest or an elevation. The area 24 above the receiving area 23, i.e. the first length 31, is larger than the second area 35 above the second receiving area 34, or the first length 31 formed above it.

[00119] The combination packaging containers 1 shown in Figures 3 to 6 can be manufactured in a manufacturing process which provides the following process steps:

- Providing a cup-shaped container 2, for example a container 2 as described above,

- filling the container 2 with a filling material, for example with a milk product or with a granular bulk material such as muesli,

- Closing the open end 5 of the container 2 with a releasable closure element 39, for example by attaching a sealing film and carrying out a sealing step, or by pressing or screwing on a lid,

- Providing a blank 13, in particular a blank 13 as described above,

- Forming an outer part 12 from the blank 13, in particular an outer part 12 as described above, or forming an outer part 12 from the blank 13 and axially pushing the outer part 12 onto the container 2, _

wherein the first end section 14 and the second end section 15 are coupled to one another in an overlap area 16, for example by gluing, with the first end face 19 facing the base 3 and the second end face 20 facing the open end 5 of the container 2, and an area 40 of the open end 5 and/or a region 41 of the closure element 39 of the container 2 is received in the receiving region 23.

Before being wrapped with the outer part 12 or before the outer part 12 is axially pushed on, the container 2 can be fixed in the area of the bottom 3 of the container 2 by coupling a coupling element with an alignment means 52, in particular with a groove or with an elevation, and /or positioned.

[00121] The combination packaging containers 1 shown in Figures 3 to 6 can be opened in an opening process which provides the following process steps in the following order:

- Providing a combination packaging container 1, in particular a combination packaging container 1 as described above, ”

- Separating the outer part 12 from the container 2 by opening the predetermined separation area 36,

- Removing the closure element 39 from the open end 5 of the container 2.

[00122] The exemplary embodiments show possible embodiment variants, although it should be noted at this point that the invention is not limited to the specifically illustrated embodiment variants of the same.

ben is limited, but rather various combinations of the individual design variants with one another are possible and this possibility of variation is within the ability of the person skilled in the art working in this technical field due to the teaching on technical action through the subject invention.

The scope of protection is determined by the claims. However, the description and drawings must be used to interpret the claims. Individual features or combinations of features from the different exemplary embodiments shown and described can represent independent inventive solutions in their own right. The task underlying the independent inventive solutions can be found in the description.

[00124] All information about value ranges in the present description are to be understood as including any and all sub-ranges thereof, e.g. the information 1 to 10 is to be understood as meaning that all sub-ranges, starting from the lower limit 1 and the upper limit 10 are included, i.e. all sub-ranges begin with a lower limit of 1 or greater and end with an upper limit of 10 or less, e.g. 1 to 1.7, or 3.2 to 8.1, or 5.5 to 10.

[00125] For the sake of order, it should finally be pointed out that, for a better understanding of the structure, elements have sometimes been shown out of scale and/or enlarged and/or reduced in size.
