Packaging with sealing.

The invention relates to a packaged and sealed data media cover containing a data medium and a method for packaging such a data media cover.

The data media cover (5) is packaged and sealed in a package consisting of a media cover member (4) with cutouts (11,11a, 18), a center piece (8), a lid (9) and a closure flap (10) and is formed into a single piece of material with folds (14) between each wing and perforations (1,16) on one side of the media enclosure part (4), by equipping the data media cover (5) with a sealing member (3, 3a) and attach it to the packaging.

This way of packaging and sealing data media covers is shown in registered Danish Patent Application No. MR 1998 00856, which became publicly available on July 31, 1998.

However, the pattern application does not show how the overhanging sealing member is mounted in the data media cover. The object of the present invention is to provide a solution to this problem and the invention is accordingly characterized in that the attached, hanging sealing member (3a) is part of a loose sealing sheet (3) placed under the data medium (50). ) before closing the data media cover (5).

The invention also relates to a method for carrying out the packaging and sealing.

The method is of the kind set forth in the preamble of claim 3 and is peculiar to that of the characterizing portion of the same claim.

25 Furthermore, from Danish utility model No. DK95G0067-U3, a packaging box for storing and sealing data media (preferably CD media covers) is known. The box is provided with openings so that the contents of the box are visible without breaking the seal, which is designed as a closure tab, which is sealed after the box holder part is closed.

The packaging used in the present invention, in contrast to this known packaging, can be transported and stored in piano format (flat) due to its special design (cut, creased, glued, and perforated out of a total three-piece piece of material). This saves space and the handling is reduced during the packaging and sealing process, as the packaging fills up slightly and only needs to be raised with one hand, after which the packaging is ready to be introduced with the data medium with its cover.

The special design of the packaging further ensures that the opening of the packaging can take place without breaking the seal, as the closing flap (10) of the lid (9) is simply pulled out of the cut (11).

The data medium packaged and sealed according to the present invention may be any data medium such as e.g. CD, CD-ROM, double CD, mini CD, double mini CD, DVD, double DVD and VHS video tape. The only requirement for the medium is that it has a cover.

Format customization requires that the packaging formats be adapted to the different format at points: 45 Depth, height, and width of the packaging (4, 8,9). In cases where the format is known, the double format version (ex. Double CD) can be constructed by changing the depth of the packaging alone (4) relative to the single format edition (ex. CD). The size of the sealing sheet (3, 51) is also adapted if the sealing function is desired to be preserved in the new format. In the case of the sealing wafer (3,51), it will be the diameter of the cut hole in the sealing wafer (3, 51), as well as the length of the tongue applied to the adhesive (7), which should be adjusted distance from the center of the medium to the edge of the cover, added to the distance between the point where the sealing wrap (3.51) protrudes from the media cover (5) and the place on the packaging where the wafer is attached.

Figure 1:

Displays two sealing sheets (3, 51) for placing in the data media cover (5) before loading the data medium (50). A sealing wafer may be provided with an adhesive strip (7) as well as a cover (15) which is sealed immediately prior to use, or the sealing wafer is made as a label where the backing paper fills the entire wafer and the wafer has cut lines (52) on the portion attached to it. the packaging, so it becomes obvious if someone tries to break the seal, as the cutting regime will cause the paper to break. Or a combination of the 2 (single wafer without cutting lines but with cover paper, or labels with cutting lines and baking paper).

Figure 2:

Displays the correct location of the sealing wrap (3, 51) in the data media cover (5) before loading the data medium (50) into the data media cover (5).

Figure 3: 20 Shows the punch shape on the packaging. Here you can see the different cuts (11,11a, 18), perforations (1), folds (14) and glues (13). The inside of the packaging faces up.

Figure 4:

Displays the finished packaging in bird's eye view (top view).

Figure 4a:

Displays the packaging from the side, lying, with the inside facing up.

Here, it can be seen how the sealing wafer (3, 3a) is brought together with the packaging (12), by inserting the data media cover (5) containing data media (50) and the sealing wafer (3,51), into the medium wrapping part of the packaging (4).

The data media cover (5) is slid horizontally into the media cover portion (4), face up, and the glue portion (7) of the sealing sheet is joined to the packaging (12) after the cover or backing paper on the sealing sheet (15) is removed. If the label version of the wafer is used, the wafer is affixed directly after removing the baking paper on the entire label.

Sealing is done as follows: 1), The media envelope (4), which is in the process of delivery, is raised.

2), the media cover (5) is provided with the sealing wafer (3, 51) and the medium is loaded, on top of the sealing wafer (3, 51).

5 3). The media cover (5) is closed and inserted into raised media cover portion (4) of packaging, face up.

4). The glue portion of the sealing sheet (7) and the packaging are locked together (12), either by means of the pre-printed glue on the sealing sheet (7), or by means of a staple, or by means of both (glue + staple).

10 5). The packaging is then closed by placing / folding the media cover part (4), containing media (50) and its cover (5) on top of the center piece (8), so that the front of the media cover (5) will now lie upwards. Next, the media (50) and its cover (5) are now loaded / folded onto the left-hand portion of the package (9), and the closure flap (10) is inserted into a pre-cut opening (11).

15

The packaging appears with unbroken surfaces in the closed state, the inner and / or outer sides of the packaging can be provided with a decorative print according to the wishes of the customer, and can possibly. be provided with illustrative instructions on the use of the packaging (eg, sealing and breaking of the seal, advertising messages or other). Since the packaging is provided with a cutout (18), the front of the contents 20 is visible without the need to damage the seal. It is also possible to see the back of the media cover (5) without breaking the seal, simply by tearing the perforation (1) on the back of the package.

In addition to getting the data media sealed, you have a beautiful and presentable gift, shipping and / or storage packaging, with unbroken, protective surfaces with designed designs, on all 6 sides, 25 inside as well as outside.

Since the packaging material is out-of-the-box, it can be handled without having to be assembled, cut, glued or otherwise,
