Description

The present invention relates according to claim 1 to a sheet for folding a box or folding box, according to claim 9 to such a box or folding box and according to claim 10 to a manufacturing method for producing the sheet.

Various folding box types are known, each of which has disadvantageous properties.

For example, the reference discloses DE29822665U1 a folding box with an associated lid, with side walls pivotably arranged on a bottom surface with associated connecting sections, the lid resting on the upper boundary of the side walls, the lid resting on bent stabilizing strips adjoining the side walls.

Furthermore, the reference discloses WO2018/197400A1 a method of making a reusable package from a paperboard, providing a rectangular base blank with sides x and y and a total area xy and 2(a+h) ≤ x ≤ 3(a+h) + a and y-2( h + r) ≤ b ≤ y applies, where a and b correspond to the lateral dimensions of the base area, h corresponds to the height and r corresponds to the width or the width of the edge area R of the finished packaging reduced by the height h, and the method comprises the following additional steps: Production of fold lines B of the base blank parallel to a first side Y at at least the following distances from it: B1: a1= h, B2: a2= h + a, B3: a3= 2h + a, whereby by cutting at least two separating lines T , in each case starting from opposite sides X, along at least one of the folding lines B or the extension thereof, the distance between the two end points ET of the dividing lines T of the blank that are closer to an axis of symmetry S1 parallel to side X is selected such that d corresponds to the length of the distance between one side B'' of the finished packaging or the length of one side M of an insert of the packaging.

Furthermore, the FR1368264A another disadvantageous folding box.

For example, a longitudinal seam box sheet has a large width and, in relation to it, a low height. Due to the large width and relatively low height, a long, unstable strip results, which is difficult to process; in particular, mechanical folding and/or gluing is possible only with great effort or is very error-prone. A box made from a sheet of box with a longitudinal seam is also relatively unstable and does not look very high quality, since the lid often bulges and the bottom is either closed with an ugly tuck-in flap or is closed with an ugly folded bottom that does not form a homogeneous surface.

Furthermore, a junk box sheet also has several disadvantages. Folding boxes from such sheets can only be produced without glue. I.e. the sheets only have parts that are plugged into the corresponding counterparts. The insertion of functional parts of the side wall into the bottom of the box (and protruding from the bottom of the box) is often perceived as unsightly. Furthermore, no dust flaps can be provided with such folding shafts, which are attached to the walls delimiting the receiving space and are therefore not attached to the cover, since the flaps are required for anchoring through the floor. Since side dust flaps are not possible, dust flaps are required on the lid, which is often not desired optically.

It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a sheet for folding a carton or box which avoids the disadvantages known from the prior art. In particular, the sheet should be easy to process by machine, create or form a straight base or a homogeneous base underside and not require dust flaps attached to the cover.

• Einen länglichen Hauptkörper, wobei der Hauptkörper in seiner Längserstreckungsrichtung durch mehrere Funktionsanteile ausgebildet ist, insbesondere mindestens oder genau oder
• bis zu 8 hintereinander in Längsrichtung des Hauptkörpers angeordnete oder ausgebildete Funktionsanteile.

• Heraustrennen des Hauptkörpers aus einem Ausgangssubstrat, insbesondere einem einzelnen Bogenvorformling oder einem endlos Bogenausgangsmaterial; Einschneiden des Hauptkörpers zum Trennen der ersten Fixierlasche und der dritten Fixierlasche von dem ersten Wandungsfunktionsanteil, Einschneiden des Hauptkörpers zum Trennen der zweiten Fixierlasche und der vierten Fixierlasche von dem zweiten Wandungsfunktionsanteil, ; Erzeugen von Falzen, insbesondere der Falzen 1 bis 4 und 6 bis 15, insbesondere der Falzen 1 bis 15. Es ist hierbei möglich, dass die 5te Falz erst in der Faltklebemaschine erzeugt wird.
• Diese Lösung ist vorteilhaft, da mit wenigen Schritten eine optisch ansprechende und stabile Box bzw. Faltschachtel erzeugbar ist.

The aforementioned object is also achieved according to claim 10 by a method for producing a sheet, in particular a sheet according to the invention described herein, in particular a sheet according to claim 1. This manufacturing process preferably has at least the following steps:

• Cutting out the main body from a starting substrate, in particular a single sheet preform or a continuous sheet starting material; cutting into the main body to separate the first fixing tab and the third fixing tab from the first wall functional portion, cutting into the main body to separate the second fixing tab and the fourth fixing tab from the second wall functional portion, ; Producing folds, in particular folds 1 to 4 and 6 to 15, in particular folds 1 to 15. It is possible here for the 5th fold to be produced only in the folder-gluing machine.
• This solution is advantageous because a visually appealing and stable box or folding box can be produced in just a few steps.

According to a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sheet is fed to a folder-gluing machine. The folder-gluing machine folds at least the third functional portion of the wall in relation to the second functional portion of the wall or at least the second portion of the functional fixing in relation to the third functional portion of the wall, in particular forming the fifth fold or along the fifth fold. This embodiment is advantageous because the step of Folding can be repeated very quickly and precisely, resulting in high quality at low cost.

According to a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fold-gluing machine applies a connecting agent, in particular glue or adhesive, to the second fixing function portion and/or to the third wall function portion for gluing the second fixing function portion to the third wall function portion. This embodiment is advantageous because the second fixing function part and the third wall function part can be glued together very economically and thus in a resource-saving manner while ensuring the required adhesive connection.

According to a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, at least one first adhesive element, in particular at least one adhesive point or at least or precisely one adhesive tape, is arranged on the first wall function portion or on the first fixing function portion. The first fixing tab, the third fixing tab, the first fixing function portion and the first wall function portion can preferably be fixed to one another in a position of use by the first adhesive element. Additionally or alternatively, at least one second adhesive element, in particular at least one adhesive point or at least or precisely one adhesive tape, is arranged on the second wall function portion or on the second fixing function portion. The second fixing tab, the fourth fixing tab, the second fixing function portion and the second wall function portion can preferably be fixed to one another in the position of use by the second adhesive element. The second adhesive element is preferably covered with a protective device, in particular a protective layer, in particular made of foil material or paper material, at least temporarily, in particular before the second fixing function part is glued to the second wall function part and the second and fourth fixing tabs.

This production process is also advantageous because a new type of sheet can be produced with a combination of machine adhesive technology and machine adhesion of the adhesive strips with high stability of the main body. What is particularly important here is that the main body or the punched blank is glued mechanically to the back of the sheet, in particular between the third wall function portion and the second fixing function portion. This makes it possible to roll up the box at the front and back using adhesive strips that have already been machine-applied, which creates the box shape.

Thus, visually attractive dust flaps can remain on the side, since it is no longer necessary to roll them inwards. The result is a box or box or folding box that is cheaply machine-made and can be easily set up by the packer or user. The pull-off strips are pulled off the adhesive elements and glued to the respective fixing tabs for fixing. The dust flaps are then folded inwards or bent inwards or pivoted inwards. The folding carton or box can then be filled and closed. Closing here preferably means pushing the plug-in part into the receiving space laterally enclosed by the functional wall parts. The plug-in part is preferably inserted or clamped on the one hand in a slot between the first dust flap and the first fixing function part. On the other hand, the plug-in part is preferably introduced or clamped into a slot between the second dust flap and the first fixing function part.

The use of the words “substantially” preferably defines a deviation in the range of 1%-30%, in particular 1%-20%, in particular 1%-10 in all cases in which these words are used within the scope of the present invention %, in particular from 1%-5%, in particular from 1%-2%, from the determination that would have been given without the use of these words.

Individual or all representations of the figures described below are preferably to be regarded as design drawings, i.e. the dimensions, proportions, functional relationships and/or arrangements resulting from the figure(s) can preferably correspond exactly or preferably essentially to those of the device according to the invention or the product according to the invention correspond to.

Further advantages, goals and properties of the present invention are explained using the following description of the attached drawings, in which sheets and folding boxes or boxes and their components are shown as examples according to the invention. Elements of the devices according to the invention, which at least essentially correspond in terms of their function in the figures, can be identified with the same reference symbols, whereby these components or elements do not have to be numbered or explained in all figures.
