Title:

Packaging for bottles

Priority: French patent application No. 78 32595 from 1 k. November 1978

The present invention relates to the field of making up bottles for sale, particularly small bottles of beer or similar products, for example in pa-

030022/0653

keten of 6, 8, 10 bottles or more and has a special one Packaging to the item.

The well-known sales packs for beer bottles (or other Products) in packages of 6, 8, 10 bottles or more are summarized, consist in general of a cardboard tape, which after connecting its outer ends by tabs forms a sheath, which at its angled upper and lower parts are recessed to fix the product.

However, this packaging has completely open narrow sides on what is disadvantageous as a result of the light inf 1 ux can affect the bottle capacity. Also consists of reasons of the energy industry, especially the production of bottles, as well as the reduction in non-recyclable waste today, the tendency to return to loan bottles, which are returned to the factory after use. For this purpose there are already small ones for the transport of the empty ones Bottle-free baskets became known. After returning the rental bottles, however, these baskets are useless and space-consuming.

The present invention is based on the object of avoiding these disadvantages.

In order to solve the problem, a veneer for bottles is used suggested soft essentially from a sheath in the form of a cardboard tape, which is provided with lines of reduced resistance (tear lines), the outer ends of which Are connected to each other by gluing or the like. And the upper part is provided with two central incisions for gripping is and which is characterized in that the sheath

030022/0653

with side walls to close its narrow sides and optionally a partition is provided, which on attached to the bottom of the case and on its narrow sides is and has a handle.

According to a characteristic of the invention, the upper part of the Sleeves on both sides of the central incisions with side, semicircular recesses for holding the bottles Mistake.

According to a further characteristic of the invention are the lines Reduced resistance (tear lines) arranged on both sides of the upper part of the case.

Based on the drawings, preferred embodiments are to be used as an example the subject matter of the invention will be explained in more detail.

In the drawings shows

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a package according to of the invention, wherein the upper part of the sheath is cut in half.

2 shows a plan view of a lining forming the packaging.

Fig. 3 shows a plan view of the intermediate wall.

Fig. K shows a plan view of another embodiment of the case.

The packaging for bottles according to the invention is as described in FIG

030022/0653

Figure 1 shown, from a case 1 in the form of a cardboard tape, its outer ends together by gluing, Staples or the like. Are attached and the upper part 2 is provided with two central incisions 3 serving as a handle are and which is characterized in that the narrow Sides of the case 1 closed by side walls * ♦ and that an intermediate wall 5 provided with a handle 6 is provided.

On both sides of the central incisions 3 of the upper part 2, lateral semicircular recesses 7 are provided, which serve to hold the bottles 8 either through their capsule or through their bottle neck. The bottles 8 are also held by lateral folds 2 ¹ , which increase the strength of the packaging, in particular when it is gripped by the lateral recesses 7.

In order to enable the upper part 2 of the case to be torn off easily, this is provided with two lines of reduced resistance (Tear lines) 9 »10 (Figure 2), which are preferably on both sides of the above-mentioned upper part below the recesses 7 are arranged, the line 9 being advantageously provided in the form of a tear-off tongue is to enable the opening of the case 1 in a first time.

The outer ends of the band forming the case 1 can consist of a tongue 11 which is connected to a side wall of the case 1 via a ReBl line 10 and consists of a part of the surface of the upper part 2 which rests against the tongue 11. The connection of the outer ends of the band forming the sheath 1 can, as shown in FIG. K , in the same way

030022/0653

2946522

be provided on the lower part of the case 1 by a tongue II ¹ at the level of the bottom 12, wherein the two tear lines 9 and 10 can be designed in the form of tearable tongues.

The case 1 is made from cardboard sheets or from cardboard webs wound on spools and is in the unfolded state in the form of an arrangement of walls which are connected to one another along the folding lines (FIGS. 2 and k). The case 1 consists of the upper part 2, which is connected to a longitudinal wall 18 by interposing a tear-off tongue 9, of a bottom 12, of a second longitudinal wall 19 provided with the tongue 11 and of side walls 4 which are connected to the longitudinal walls 18 and 19 are connected. This makes it possible, starting from the same cardboard sheet or the same cardboard roll, to cut several cases 1 across the width of the sheet or roll at the same time by placing the said cases side by side, preferably head spade (tete beche), with their sides interlocking Walls k are laid in such a way that the material waste is reduced to a minimum.

The assembly of the case 1 according to the invention takes place in the following Way:

The longitudinal walls 18 and 19 are upward, along their fa1t1iηie, succeeded. Then the side walls Ί are folded against each other and connected to each other by gluing, stapling or the like. The case 1 can then optionally with an interposed Wall 5 are provided, whereupon the bottles 8 are inserted, and the upper part 2 is folded onto said bottles is such that the recesses 7 on the capsules or the FIa-

030022/0653

necks come to rest, and finally the part will the free surface of the part 2 is attached to the tongue 11.

The wall 5 shown in between, which is shown in FIG attached to the bottom 12 of the case 1 by means of two tongues 13, which corresponding recesses 14 (Figure 2) of the traverse said bottom 12 and that on its outer surface and on the side walls 4 by means of two flaps 15 are glued or stapled. The fastening of the wall 5 on the floor 12 can be done in the same way by gluing or stapling of the two tongues can be carried out directly on the inner surface of the floor without the use of recesses.

In its central part, the intermediate wall 5 is provided with two wings 16 of any shape, which are cut into the surface of the wall 5 and which can be pivoted in their center along a fold line 17 in such a way as to
to form a separation between two successive bottles bottles of the same bottle area, the wall 5 forming the separation between two areas.

By the measures of the invention, a packaging for bottles is obtained which has closed side walls that protect the products against the influence of light and
after tearing off the upper part 2 along the tear lines 9, 10 allows the withdrawal of the empty bottles in a box. In addition, the side walls k can advantageously serve as an advertising medium.

The handling of the thus obtained box for the empty bottles is through the partition 5 with its handle relieved. This partition 5 is used in the same way

030022/0653

also for securing both empty and full bottles

The packaging according to the invention can, however, in particular
for economic reasons, be designed in the same way without a partition, i.e. simply in the form of a box, after removing the upper part 2 of the case 1.

Of course, the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments, but can be modified in its individual elements without changing the scope of the
Invention is abandoned.
