Definitions

  • the present invention relates first of all to a refill case for a plurality of liquid-soaked, independent, refreshment or the like serving cloths with a flat, round chamber, the bottom and peripheral wall of which are formed by a flat bottom shell, while also covering the entire surface of the chamber to cover the chamber a flat cover shell having a peripheral wall is used, which, for the purpose of removing a refreshment tissue from its basic position which at least approximately gas-tightly seals the chamber, can be displaced into an opening position which opens the chamber opening.
  • the further invention relates to a refreshing towel with an approximately rectangular envelope shape, with folds lying on the two center lines which are perpendicular to one another and parallel to the circumferential sides of the envelope shape and which fold the refreshment towel into a quarter of its original area.
  • Liquid soaked refreshment towels are e.g. individually packed in aluminum bags. A plurality of such bags are housed in a box.
  • This type of packaging has several disadvantages. If you want to carry several bags with you, you either encounter the difficulty of storing the relatively large box, for which there is hardly any space in a pocket of clothing or a small handbag, or you do without the box, which leads to untidy storage leads to several single bags. The material expenditure of the single-use disposable packaging is very large and the opening of the bags is impractical. In addition, every empty bag should be properly disposed of. One is bound to the fragrance notes offered, although these mostly do not match the user's preferred perfume or facial tonic.
  • US-A 3967756, US-A 4185754 and FR-A 2 239 972 have also made it known to accommodate individually cut refreshment towels or such a web-like, tear-off design in containers or bags which are tightly closed except for a small removal opening and therefore cannot be refilled . Since this is disposable packaging, the packaging effort is relatively large. Due to the removal principle of the handkerchiefs, their folding possibilities are very limited, which means that the containers or bags are very large. Their forms are inherently inelegant. These constructions are only of general importance in relation to the present invention, since they do not directly concern the packaging type of the same.
  • the present invention is based on the object of further developing a refill case of the type mentioned in CH-A 621 932 as well as refreshment wipes for accommodating the same with simple means, while eliminating the disadvantages mentioned in this regard.
  • the invention consists first of all in the fact that within the floor plan of the chamber, approximately in the plane of the chamber opening edge, a flat, umbrella-like or mushroom-like retaining element for the refreshment tissues, which covers the chamber and is supported by a web attached to the chamber bottom, is arranged, which is of a different type approximately as a diameter extending through the chamber line from at least an approximately semicircular surface area of the chamber floor plan partially.
  • the further invention is characterized in that the refreshment towel folded of the above-mentioned type is provided with a further, approximately in the diagonal direction and transverse to the center line running through the intersection of the first two folds, and in the final state of the refreshment towel a larger towel area with a smaller cloth area protrudes from its edge areas.
  • the refill case (hereinafter only called the case) consists of the base shell 1 and the cover shell 2, which are connected to one another by a hinge device 3.
  • the bottom shell 1 is formed on the inside of the annular peripheral wall 1a, which surrounds the chamber 4.
  • the cover shell 2 has inside on the side also an annular wall 2a, which tightly encloses the peripheral wall 1a on the outside when the case is closed, an annular projection 1 and an annular recess 2b additionally sealingly interlocking. At least one of the two walls 1a, 2a has a certain inherent elasticity for this purpose.
  • the hinge device 3 initially consists of the two slots 3a, which are molded onto the base shell 1 from its outer edge. They are located at the same distance on both sides of the bottom shell center line E and are aligned approximately parallel to this.
  • the curved hinge flap 3c of the base shell 1 located between the slots 3a is thin and flexible in its strip-shaped root or transition area 3b to the base shell 1 to form a film hinge. With its outer edge opposite the root region 3b, the hinge flap is fixed to the cover shell 2 in the manner of a web-groove connection 3d and additionally fastened to it by means of ultrasonic welding or gluing.
  • the hinge axis formed by the strip-shaped root region 3b is laid lower relative to the support plane of the base shell 1 and cover shell 2. It is thereby achieved that the circumferential wall 2a of the cover shell 2 can overlap the circumferential wall 1a of the base shell 1 exactly during the cover closing movement, without these walls - interfering with such interlocking - abutting one another diagonally even at the beginning of the closing movement.
  • the hinge tab 3c is dimensioned and curved in such a way that, when the case is closed, it adapts exactly to the surface of the base shell 1, so that no hinge projection occurs, i.e. the bottom shell shape is retained at the corresponding point. As a result of the directly formed film hinge, there is no need for hinge holes and therefore delicate tool sideshifters.
  • a retaining element designed as a plate 5 is arranged in the center of the chamber 4 to secure the position of the refreshment tissues labeled 6 (hereinafter only referred to as tissues). It is located approximately in the plane of the edge of the chamber opening and is carried in an umbrella-like or mushroom-like manner by a web 5a formed on the underside thereof.
  • the web 5a is fixed on the inside on the base shell 1 by gluing or ultrasound welding.
  • the base shell 1 is formed with conical cams 1 e. It is also possible to directly mold the web 5a of the base shell 1 and to fasten the plate 5 at the top by gluing or ultrasound welding.
  • the plate 5 thus overlaps the two semicircular chamber regions 4a from the web 5a or the center line E.
  • the remaining open area of the chamber opening 7 is designated 7a.
  • the handkerchiefs 6 have the cut shown in FIG. 7a with the square envelope shape 6 1.
  • the cut has a likewise square central area 6a, with semicircular tabs 6c adjoining each of the four sides 6b of this square.
  • a first fold on the center line 6d of the enveloping mold 6k creates the shape according to FIG. 7b. If folding is now carried out on the second center line 6e for the second time (both foldings also run through the contact points 6n of the semicircular flaps 6c), the shape shown in FIG. 7c is produced.
  • a third fold on the line 6f (with respect to the square envelope shape 6m), which runs in the diagonal direction and transverse to the center line (6j) passing through the intersection (6i) of the first two folds (6d, 6e), turns the triangular region 6g against the semicircular region 6h flipped.
  • the final shape corresponding to FIG. 7d is thus obtained, in which the edge regions 6k of the region 6h project beyond the region 6g.
  • a flexible refill package contains one or two stacks of e.g. six towels so folded (either dry or soaked in liquid). If necessary, these are placed in the chamber 4 of the base shell 1 in the manner shown in FIG. such that the triangular areas 6f are on top. Because both stacks are overlapped by the plate 5, the cloths are prevented from falling out even if the case is accidentally held when opening so that the base shell 1 is on top.
  • the triangular areas 6g make it easier to grasp and ensure that only one handkerchief is gripped at a time. By pulling on the outer tip of a triangular area, the part of the cloth covered by the plate 5 rolls out of its overlap without changing the safe position of the cloth underneath. This is also not touched, so that the towels remaining in the case always remain clean even when a towel is removed using dirty fingers.
  • a ventilation channel 1 c is provided in the peripheral wall 1 a - approximately opposite the hinge device 3 - which is not quite as long as the mutual overlap of the two peripheral walls 1 a, 2 a.
  • the plate 5 could also be located in the vicinity of the circumference of the chamber 4 (shown in broken lines in FIG. 2 and denoted by 15).
  • the circular walls 1a, 2a can immediately form the outer side walls of the base and cover shell, whereby the case would have a smaller surface area and a round basic shape with a round chamber 4 with the hinge area projecting outwards.
  • the retention device can also be used in e.g. elongated training consist of resilient metal sheet or wire or be shaped.
  • the chamber circumference has the shape of a closed curve which is positively curved over its entire length. This condition is not only fulfilled by a circle, but also by any symmetrical and asymmetrical oval or egg shape. It ensures that the overlapping circumferential walls of the base and lid shells press tightly around each other, i.e. nowhere to bend away from each other.
  • FIG. 1 a chamber floor plan for only one stack of wipes is shown in broken lines in FIG. 1. This would of course require a corresponding reduction in the size of the case.
  • the chamber circumference has the shape of an oval that is greatly flattened on one side.
  • the flattened circumferential area is designated 1a 'and the circumferential area opposite it, which is approximately in the form of a semicircle, is designated 1a' of the chamber area 4b forming line E I.
