Description

The The invention relates to a crate in the form of a folding box accomplished is. In such a crate are usually fruits, vegetables and eggs packed for the storage and the transport route from the producer to the trade. A but such crates can also accommodate other goods.

Climb come in a variety of constructive designs as stackable packaging for transport, Protection and presentation of goods and goods used in commerce, especially the food trade.

It are known wooden, plastic and cardboard trays that are not are dismantled, and those that are dismantled. Non-dismountable Rising due to their high transport volume and their high Storage volume high logistics costs. This affects both the packaging manufacturers, the producers of the goods to be packaged and goods, the recipients the goods and goods packed in these crates, as well as the disposers or Recycling Officer for these climbs.

demountable Risers are known from plastic and cardboard. Demountable climbs made of cardboard have in addition to the natural recyclable material has the advantage that it is due to the low material height need very little transport volume. Besides, they are as flatter Cutting by means of flat-bed punching and rotary punching process very economical can be produced from rectangular cardboard sheets and can by means of pre-folded and pre-glued, so that they can be erected by the user in a few simple steps and thus the user does not have to make any gluing or stapling, to stabilize the erected crates.

Finished Pre-glued boxes are one-piece, foldable boxes that folded and pre-glued and delivered by simply straightening be set up ready for use. The boxes can with a folding bottom (folding bottom box) or with diagonal bending (erecting box) equipped be. The design features of such one-piece, ready pre-glued and foldable boxes are published in the international Code for shipping packaging the organization FEFCO, in particular concerning the construction types 02 and 07.

The known dismountable crates have the disadvantage that the Erecting and stabilizing and disassembling cumbersome and time consuming designed. Furthermore have known collapsible risers hinged because of their multiple connected surfaces and insufficient Stabilizer devices do not have the required stability when they are stacked.

Stackable crates of solid board, which can be erected and stabilized from a blank, are already known with other stabilizing devices (US Pat. DE 26 34 948 A1 and DE 42 17 994 A1 and DE 20 2004 017 323 U1 ). The erection and stabilization and disassembly of these crates is cumbersome and time-consuming due to the multiple interlocking side wall strips. The sometimes necessary bonds prevent these crates can be broken down into a reusable and flat transportable form. If stacking boards are missing, stable stacking of multiple platforms is not possible ( DE 20 2004 017 323 U1 ).

Of the Invention has for its object to provide a crate, the out as possible few materials with low weight and few simple steps can be produced, delivered in folded flat form can be and with the simplest and quickest steps in front of the Filling erect and can be stabilized.

Further the crate should be easy and stably stackable. In the stack should the crates are safe for transport, that is, not against each other can move and withstand the stacking pressure. The goods or goods should be present in the tray in retail, i. the content of Steige should be easily accessible from above and be visible. Furthermore, the crate with the simplest and quickest Handles again after use in the flat space-saving State folded back and thus can be used several times.

The tray according to the invention consists of a foldable flat and plate-like structure ( 100 ). When the structure is erected ( 1 ), this results in a cuboid hollow body with a substantially rectangular bottom surface ( 1 ), two opposite end walls ( 2 ) and two opposite longitudinal walls ( 3 ), which are each substantially rectangular and to the bottom surface ( 1 ) are articulated. These surfaces ( 1 - 5 ) form the cuboid main body.

Furthermore, the end walls ( 2 ) with adjacent end connectors ( 13 ) hinged and the longitudinal walls ( 3 ) with adjoining longitudinal connectors ( 12 ) hingedly connected. The end connectors ( 13 ) are also each with the adjacent longitudinal connector ( 12 ) hingedly connected. The articulated connection between the longitudinal connectors ( 12 ) and the adjacent end connectors ( 13 ) is at a 45 ° angle to the articulated connections of the end connectors ( 13 ) with the adjacent end wall ( 2 ) and is at a 45 ° angle to the articulated connection between longitudinal connectors ( 12 ) and the adjoining longitudinal walls ( 3 ).

Further, in the manufacture of the crate, each longitudinal connector ( 12 ) on the directly hinged longitudinal wall ( 3 ) and firmly connected (preferably by gluing with previously applied glue). This allows the tray to be erected by the user with a handle as a whole.

Furthermore, at least one, preferably two end walls ( 2 ) one stabilizing element each ( 6 ) hinged parallel to the floor surface ( 1 ).

The stabilizing element ( 6 ) consists of the substantially rectangular stacking board ( 7 ), at the right angle to the adjacent end wall ( 2 ) a substantially rectangular Überwurflasche ( 8th ) is hinged, in turn, in parallel to this articulation a substantially rectangular tab ( 9 ) is articulated, in turn, at right angles to this articulation two opposing retaining tabs ( 10 ) are articulated.

To the longitudinal walls ( 3 ) is preferably hinged no stabilizing element. The longitudinal walls ( 3 ) contain two outer window sections ( 11 ).

The longitudinal connectors ( 12 ) and the front connectors ( 13 ) each contain a congruent inner window detail ( 14 ).

These interior window cutouts ( 14 ) and the outer window cutouts ( 11 ) are in upright crates ( 300 ) are positioned one behind the other such that retaining recesses ( 15 ) in the inner window cutouts ( 14 ) and outer window cutouts ( 11 ) the retaining tabs ( 10 ) and that these retaining recesses ( 15 ) from the edges of the outer window cutouts ( 11 ) are covered in such a way that the retaining tabs ( 10 ) does not stand alone through the outer window section ( 11 ) can move through. Furthermore, the hinged connection between the tuck ( 9 ) and the retaining tabs ( 10 ) designed such that the retaining tabs ( 10 ) in the plane of the tuck ( 9 ) spring back and thus against the inner edge of the outer window cutout ( 11 ), causing the tuck ( 9 ) no longer independently by the outer window section ( 11 ) can move through. This resilient articulated connection can preferably be achieved by additionally mounting spring elements above the articulated connection, or by performing the articulated connection in the form of a resilient buckling of the material (eg, corrugation of corrugated cardboard). An additional safeguard is achieved in that a Auskraglasche ( 24 ) on the push-in tab ( 9 ) behind the lower edge of the window ( 11 ) and prevents the tuck independently by the outer window cutout ( 11 ) can move outwards.

The pre-assembly leads the flat blank ( 100 . 3 ) in the pre-assembled flat shape ( 200 . 2 ) above. For this purpose, the end walls ( 2 ) and the longitudinal walls ( 3 ) about their hinged connection with the floor surface ( 1 ) folded so that they are on the bottom surface ( 1 ) come to rest. The longitudinal connectors ( 12 ) with the adjoining longitudinal walls ( 3 ), which can preferably be done via an adhesive connection.

The erection process leads the preassembled flat shape ( 200 . 2 ) in the erect form ( 100 . 1 ) above. For this purpose, the end walls ( 2 ) with the hinged stabilizing elements ( 6 ) pulled upwards, so from the bottom surface ( 1 ) pulled away. Due to the hinged connections between the end walls ( 2 ), the front connectors ( 13 ), the longitudinal connectors ( 12 ) and the longitudinal walls ( 3 ), the longitudinal walls ( 3 ) with, so that a cuboid box is formed.

The stabilization process stabilizes the erect form ( 1 ), in which the stabilizing elements ( 6 ) are folded inwards until they are parallel to the bottom surface ( 1 ) are aligned. In the second step, the Überwurflaschen ( 8th ) over the longitudinal walls ( 3 ), so that from the outside on these longitudinal walls ( 3 ) issue. In the third step, the push-in tabs ( 9 ) with the attached retaining tabs ( 10 ) and the attached Auskraglasche ( 24 ) from above and outside so far through the congruent successively positioned outer window cutouts ( 11 ) and inner window cutouts ( 14 ) that the spring-hinged retaining tabs ( 10 ) behind the outer window cutout ( 11 ) can again fold outwards and thus in the retaining recesses ( 15 ) and prevent the tuck-in tabs ( 9 ) can move out of the window openings, so hold them in this position. This retention is ensured by the fact that the retaining recesses ( 15 ) of the interior window cutouts ( 14 ) from the edges of the outer window cutouts ( 11 ) and that the retaining tabs ( 10 ) in the manner hinged with the push-in tabs ( 9 ) are connected to au ßen springs or locked in the outward folded position. Outwardly in this context, the position in a plane with the tuck ( 9 ). In the stabilized state, the Auskraglasche ( 24 ) behind the lower edge of the window ( 11 ), whereby the tuck ( 9 ) is additionally prevented from moving automatically to the outside.

Stackers: The forehead stacking tabs ( 16 ) form in upright crates together with the congruent longitudinal stave pockets ( 17 ) a standing substantially rectangular element with Gleitabschrägungen ( 28 ). This engages in the stack recesses ( 18 ) of an identical crate stacked above it. Thus, the stacked crates can not move horizontally against each other. The stacking recess ( 26 ) of the upper tray surrounds the folding stacking pocket ( 25 ) of the lower crates. The folding stacks ( 25 ) fold down when erecting, which also prevents the stacked crates from shifting horizontally against each other.

The handle cutouts ( 19 ) in the end walls ( 2 ) serve as a handle. The floor window cutout ( 20 ) in the bottom surface ( 1 ) is used in particular the better vertical ventilation stacked crates, if this is required for the goods and goods stored therein. The floor area ( 1 ) can be provided for ventilation purposes with multiple window openings, which have a shape other than rectangular.

During the dismantling process, the crate of the erected, stabilized form ( 1 ) in the pre-assembled flat shape ( 2 ). During the dismantling process, the push-in tabs ( 9 ) from the inside through the inner window cutouts ( 14 ) and the outer window cutouts ( 11 ). The spring-hinged retaining tabs ( 10 ) so that they fit together with the push-in tabs ( 9 ) through the window openings ( 11 . 14 ) move outwards. In the second step, the push-in tabs ( 9 ) with the Überwurflaschen ( 8th ) until they are level with the stacking board ( 7 ) are aligned. In the third step, the stabilization elements ( 6 ) folded vertically upwards, until they with the directly hinged end walls ( 2 ) are aligned in a plane. In the fourth step, the end walls ( 2 ) together with the attached stabilizing elements ( 6 ) inwards to the base ( 1 ) worked. Preferably, the articulated connection between the stacking board ( 7 ) and the litter bottle ( 8th ) and the articulated connection between the Überwurflasche ( 8th ) and the tuck ( 9 ) also resilient, so that during the dismantling process, the stabilizing elements ( 6 ) with all components automatically go into a flat shape. As a result, the dismantling process is supported in such a way that no further manipulations are necessary to transfer the crate in the preassembled state, ie in a flat as possible and thus space-saving structure.

With the present innovation is advantageously achieved that the crate can only be made from one material and one piece, light can be printed, made of very light, yet stable materials can exist in a space-saving, flat, collapsed form can be stored and transported by the simplest fast hand grips Raisable and stabilizable and also dismantled, multiple times is usable, rise stable and secure against displacement on each other can be stacked and the packaged goods in retail in the crate good to the customer to get presented can.

1 shows a possible embodiment of the packaging device according to the invention in the form of a flat blank, as punched out of rectangular corrugated board formats with punching machines customary in the packaging industry, and into the preassembled state with folding-gluing machines likewise customary in the packaging industry (US Pat. 2 ) can be transferred. This embodiment is formed symmetrically both with respect to the end symmetry axis (FIG. 4 ) as well as with respect to the longitudinal axis of symmetry ( 5 ). In this embodiment, the hinged connections are in the form of longitudinal grooves formed by compression of the corrugated board along the hinged connecting line with a so-called Riller tool. This depresses the shaft and removes its stiffening action at that location, allowing the adjacent surfaces to pivot about this line. The resilient hinged connections are created by the fact that the Riller tool pushes less deep into the corrugated cardboard and thus remains a residual rigidity transverse to the direction of creasing. The firm connection between the longitudinal walls ( 3 ) and the adjacent longitudinal connectors ( 12 ) happens by the fact that the folding-gluing machine on the longitudinal walls ( 3 ) and / or the longitudinal connectors ( 12 ) Apply glue before they are folded on each other and then subjected to pressure during the glue bonding phase and possibly also heat.
