Definitions

  • the invention relates to a folding box, in particular for cigarettes, from a one-piece blank with a hinged to a rear wall cover, which in the closed position comprises a collar connected to a front wall, the collar or a collar front wall in the region of the front wall by a Z formed from an intermediate strip -shaped fold (Z-fold) is set back.
  • a pack of the above type is known, for example, from DE-OS 24 26 131.
  • the pack here consists of a single, one-piece blank made of paper, cardboard or the like.
  • the collar is in this pack in the area of the front wall and also on the side walls set inwards by a Z-fold opposite the front and side walls. Because of this Z-fold the collar, including its collar tabs, is set back by two layers of material compared to the front wall and the side walls.
  • the cover which is also double-layered, is flush with the front and side walls in the closed position.
  • the invention has for its object to propose an improved folding box of the type mentioned, which has a simpler structure, especially with regard to economical, mechanical production, and also ensures advantages in terms of handling.
  • the hinged box according to the invention is characterized in that the intermediate strip is separated from the lower edge of the collar front wall in the predominant area by a transverse separating cut and is only connected to the collar by residual connections with Z-folds, the remaining connections being opposite to the collar front wall about diagonal cuts that are shorter than the height (width) of the intermediate strip.
  • the pack construction according to the invention in the area of the connection between the front wall and the collar makes it easier, on the one hand, to manufacture by machine, because perfect folding can be carried out mechanically with a relatively narrow intermediate strip.
  • the collar in the invention is only displaced relative to the front wall in an offset plane. Z-folds are only formed in the area of the narrow remaining connections. Between them, the full width of the intermediate strip is folded against the inside of the front wall and lies against it. The collar front wall in turn lies against the folded intermediate strip in the area of an overlap. Due to the above construction, the front wall at the transition to the collar or the collar front wall forms a continuously folded, double-layer, rounded edge.
  • the process of folding over the intermediate strip is expediently facilitated in that an incision weakening the cross-section of the material is made in the area of the aforementioned upper edge, that is to say a cut which extends only over a partial area of the material thickness.
  • the exemplary embodiment of a packaging shown relates to a cuboid hinged box for cigarettes.
  • This consists of front wall 10, rear wall 11, floor 12 and side walls 13, 14.
  • the latter are formed in two layers in the predominant area, namely consist of side tabs 15 and 16 each adjoining front wall 10 and rear wall 11.
  • a pivotable cover 17 connects to the upper edge of the rear wall 11. Whose lid rear wall 18 is integrally connected to the rear wall 11 and pivotable along a folding axis 19.
  • the lid 17 consists, moreover, of the lid top wall 20, lid front wall 21, and a reinforcing flap 22 folded against the inside thereof.
  • the lid rear wall 18 and also the lid front wall 21 are laterally provided with trapezoidal lid side tabs 23 and 24, respectively. These form the two-layer lid side walls 25, 26 lying congruently one above the other. Furthermore, in the area of the bottom 12 and the lid 17 corner tabs 27 and 28 are provided, which abut the bottom 12 and / or the top wall 20 of the finished package.
  • a collar 29 adjoins the package blank described so far in the region of the front wall 10. This is connected in one piece to the remaining part of the blank, via residual connections 30, 31.
  • the collar 29 consists of the collar front wall 32 as a continuation of the front wall 10 and lateral collar tabs 33 in the region of the adjacent side tabs 15.
  • the side cut parts namely the side tabs 15 on the one hand and collar tabs 33 on the other hand, as well as the side tabs 16 on the one hand and lid side tabs 23 on the other hand, are each separated from one another over the full width by obliquely directed separating cuts 36, 37. Due to the inclined position (approx. 80 °) of the separating cuts 36, 37, correspondingly inclined closing edges of the pack and of the cover as well as a lower, obliquely directed edge of the collar tabs 33.
  • the lateral collar tabs 33 are each embedded in the upper region between the side tabs 15, 16 of the side walls 13, 14 and anchored here, in particular by gluing, with a lower anchoring strip 38, which can have a height of approximately 5 mm, for example.
  • the layers can also be layered in such a way that the side collar flaps 33 lie completely against the inside of the side walls 13 and 14 of the pack.
  • connection between the collar 29 and the front wall 10 is designed in a special way.
  • residual lateral connections 30 and 31 of small width are provided. Outside the area of these remaining connections 30, 31, the collar 29 or the collar front wall 32 is divided from the front wall 10 by a transverse cut 40.
  • the remaining connections 30, 31 located here at the edge of the front wall 10 are separated by side incisions 41 from the regions of the collar 29 bordering on the outside, namely the collar tabs 33.
  • the collar 29 is moved into a recessed plane by relative movement relative to the front wall 10 such that the remaining connections 30, 31 are folded against the back of the front wall 10.
  • the remaining connections 30, 31 are part of an imaginary intermediate strip 44, which forms the connection between the front wall 10 and the collar front wall 32. Outside the area of the remaining connections 30, 31, the intermediate strip 44 lies folded against the inside of the front wall 10.
  • the intermediate strip 44 is delimited over the full width of the pack relative to the front wall 10 by an upper folded edge 46. This double-layered folded edge 46 is also the closing edge for the pack in the area of the front. It ends flush with the double-layer cover front wall 21.
  • the dimensions are expediently chosen so that the intermediate strip 44 outside the area of the remaining connections 30, 31 has twice the width of the inner leg of the Z-folds 43, for example a width or height of 5 mm.
  • the Z-fold 43 has relatively small dimensions.
  • the collar front wall 32 is guided against the inside of the folded intermediate strip 44 when the Z-folds 43 are formed.
  • the collar front wall 32 lies with an overlap 47 of, for example, 1 mm in height or width.
  • the remaining connections 80, 31 and the stitch cuts 42 must be matched to one another in the dimensions so that there is an overlap 47 of a certain minimum width.
  • the intermediate strip 44 can also be connected to the front wall 10 and the collar front wall 32 to the intermediate strip 44 by gluing or the like.
  • the blank in the area of the folded edge 46 is provided with an incision 48 which is preferably continuous over the full width of the pack. This is attached from the outside of the blank in such a way that the material experiences a cross-sectional weakening in this area, for example in such a way that a material residue 49 remains 1/3 of the material thickness.
  • the incision 48 is made with a special cutting tool 50, the cutting edge 51 of which is V-shaped, with a rounded transition into the remaining area of the cutting tool 50. This results in rounded cutting edges 52 on both sides of the incision 48. These rounded cutting edges 52 effect a total of rounded folding edge 46 when the mutually delimited by the incision 48 cut pieces are against each folded over by 180 0 in this case the front wall 10 and the intermediate strips 44th. This special technique of weakening the material in the area of folded edges can also be used in other ways, that is to say with other packaging constructions.
  • a reduction in material which facilitates the folding process can be brought about in the region of the folding edge 46 by local, namely linear compression of the blank.
  • a crimping tool can be used for this, which corresponds in cross section to roughly the cutting tool 50, with the difference that the lower cutting edge is rounded. Due to the design of such a pressing or squeezing tool, an essentially V-shaped groove or groove is pressed into the material, which facilitates the folding process to form the folded edge 46 and which can also have rounded edges in the sense of the cut edges 52.
  • Such a "folding aid" can also be used for other purposes, especially if relatively narrow or small cutting areas have to be folded.
