BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The invention relates to a carton folding box having a sorting insert inserted into the box bottom and dividing it into several loading compartments in which products are packaged, secured against lateral displacement, where the sorting insert is made of a single cut carton item and for restriction. of the individual loading compartments, with respect to the bottom surface of the sorting insert, have upwardly folded spacers formed by the bottom surface of the sorting insert through at least three parallel folding lines.

A folding box of this kind is known from FR patent specification No. 12 26 636.

The sorting insert shown there is only suitable for limiting filling spaces between the folded spacers up from the bottom surface, while a subdivision into smaller spaces along these spacers is not possible.

Also known is a folding box with plastic sorting inserts, where the filling compartments are designed according to the product form, as bulges in the individual sorting inserts.

Also known is a folding box with sorting carton inserts, where the sorting inserts are formed of intersecting intersections, ie. that by this folding box, the sorting inserts are formed of several pieces.

The object of the invention is to provide a folding box of the kind mentioned at the outset, which, while retaining the advantages of an easy-to-manufacture, affordable and environmentally friendly sorting insert, further allows it to delineate several spaces between 30 mutually parallel spacers.

This is achieved according to the invention in that the sorting insert for subdivision of the filling compartments has crosspieces extending at intervals over the bottom surface of the sorting insert across the spacers 35 formed by section lines extending in pairs across the blank across the two spacers. outer DK 170298 B1 2 * of the three fold lines, whereby the ends of each pair of these cut lines are joined by a fold line extending parallel to the spacers.

Such a folding box is, in general, inexpensive to produce, which is especially true for the sorting insert, which consists of a single cut cardboard item. In addition, such a folding box is also particularly environmentally friendly because it is ultimately all made of cardboard, and the special advantage is obtained that the filling spaces are also delimited relative to each other in the areas 10 between the parallel spacers.

As the sorting insert is made of a single cut piece, it can be transported flat, like the folding box blank, thus saving space from the cardboard box to the packer.

The raising of the sorting insert, like the raising of the folding box blank, can be done by means of commercially available machines.

Preferred embodiments of the invention are the subject of the subclaims.

The invention will be explained in more detail by way of example with reference to the drawing, in which: FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a folding box according to the invention in the open state; FIG. 2 shows a flat, single cut blank for a sort insert; FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the raised sorting insert of FIG. 2, 30 FIG. 4 is a partial section along the line iv-iv of FIG. 3, and FIG. 5 is a sectional view similar to FIG. 4 through a sorting insert according to another embodiment of the invention.

35 The embodiment of FIG. 1 shown and assembled with reference numerals lightly folded box 10 has a sorting insert 11, & 3 DK 170298 B1 which is arranged in the box base 12 of the folding box 10 and, like the folding box itself, is formed of a single cut piece of cardboard.

By means of the sorting insert 11, the box bottom part 12 is subdivided into several loading compartments 13, in which products to be packed, for example pralines, are secured against lateral displacement.

For delimiting the individual Fill spaces 13, on the one hand, spacers 15, which are flared to the bottom surface 14 of the sorting insert 11 along three fold lines a, b, c, and on the other hand, cross pieces 16 formed by section lines 20 extending in pairs across the spacers 15 beyond the two outer fold lines a and c, 15, the ends of each pair of these cut lines 20 being joined by a fold line 21 extending parallel to the spacers 15.

In other words, the transverse pieces 16 are punched from both the intermediate pieces 15 as well as from areas up to the middle 20 of the bottom surface 15 of the bottom surface 15 and are also formed standing upwards above the bottom surface 14 of the sorting insert 11.

In particular, FIG. 3 clearly shows that with the help of the spacers 15 and the transverse pieces 16, a bottom 25 which defines the size of a filling space 13 is separated from an adjacent loading space 13. Similar products are secured in these filling spaces by means of the spacers 15 and the transverse pieces 16. against lateral displacement and against unwanted entry into an adjacent loading space 13.

In the FIG. 1-4, the intermediate pieces 15 have a triangular cross section, which also applies to the transverse thicknesses 16, which are proportional to the intermediate pieces 15 both laterally and at height.

in FIG. 5, it is suggested that the cross sections 16 can definitely also have different profiles than the intermediate sections.

Claims (4)

5 The intermediate pieces 15 in the lateral border area of the sorting insert 11 are formed with an adhesive surface 18 and the complete, arranged sorting insert 11 is adhered by means of these adhesive surfaces 18 together with the corresponding sidewalls 19 of the box base 12. This prevents the drop of the sorting insert 11 from the box base 12. In particular FIG. 2 clearly shows that the cross pieces 16 are configured to narrow to their apex. In any case, this is a purely design 15 measure that is not imperative for technical reasons. The cross pieces 16 can also be designed with constant width. For design reasons, other geometric shapes of the crosspieces 16 may also be selected, for example, these may be rounded. 1.
