Definitions
- the invention relates to a case for writing utensils, lighters, watches and the like, consisting of a lower part and a lid.
- Such cases are usually made from solid injection molded parts or sheet metal.
- the lid is either a slip lid or connected to the lower part by a hinge.
- a pillow-shaped insert is used, which is often made of thermoformed film with refined, for. B. there is velor-like surface.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of creating a case with an appealing external impression which, despite the hinge, can be manufactured much more easily, quickly and cheaply than the known designs.
- the lower part consists of deep-drawn film, which is formed into essentially vertical outer walls with a supporting function and a central trough-like depression delimited by inner walls, is closed and held on its underside by a rigid base part and on the upper side has a step-shaped shoulder on the edge of the trough-like depression on an inner wall, next to which there are recesses in the two adjacent inner walls, into which hinge pins formed on a hinged lid can be snapped, the rounded lid edge resting at least partially between the hinge pins on the step-shaped shoulder.
- the special feature of the invention is that the proposed design of the hinge on a step-shaped shoulder of the lower housing part relieves the hinge parts in such a way that the lower housing part together with indentations for the hinge can be formed from a thin film using the deep-drawing process.
- the bottom part which can be a very simple injection molded part, provides stiffening in the lower area.
- the lid with the molded hinge pins can also be manufactured using the injection molding process. In any case, it should be stiff in itself.
- the cover rests only with a part of its rear edge on the step-like shoulder of the lower housing part, but preferably the entire inner width of the lower housing part is used for the support.
- the step-like heel thus forms part of the hinge in its function as a support surface for the rounded lid at the rear edge.
- the cover is supported all around on the lower part in the closed state. If pressure is then exerted on the case with the lid closed, it is distributed over the four side walls of the lower housing part, essentially without stressing the hinge.
- the bottom part 10 has the simple rectangular shape shown in the drawing and consists of a closed bottom surface and short side walls.
- the base part is preferably produced using the injection molding process, but other production processes and shapes are also possible. It is only important that the base part 10, in which the lower part 12 is inserted, has sufficient rigidity and strength for the respective intended use in order to support the four vertical side walls of the lower part 12 and to hold it against deformation under load.
- the bottom part 12 can be snapped into the bottom part 10 by means of projections and recesses, which are not shown, and which match one another.
- the lower part 12 has four outer, substantially vertical side walls, of which the front wall is omitted in the drawing in order to show the cross section.
- the lower part 12 is shaped with a depression 16 which receives the object to be packed in the case.
- two small indentations 18 are located opposite one another near the upper edge in the inner side walls, of which only the left one is visible in the drawing.
- a step-shaped shoulder 20 extends along the rear inner wall, which is followed by step-like steps 22 on the same level along the side inner walls.
- the front wall not shown, extends from below only up to the height of the step-shaped shoulders 22 and further below has an outer step-like step on which, when the cover 14 is closed, its angled down front end 24 is supported.
- the lower part 12 preferably consists of a thermoformed film with a refined surface with, for example, velor-like or pitted character.
- a refined surface with, for example, velor-like or pitted character.
- the cover 14 has on its rear edge protruding hinge pins 26 on both sides.
- the rear edge of the cover 14 is concentrically rounded to the hinge axis determined by the hinge pins 26.
- the stiff, e.g. B. the cover 14 produced by injection molding the short hinge pins 26 are snapped into the indentations 18, the rear edge of the cover 14 resting slightly on the step-shaped shoulder 20.
- the angled front part 24 of the cover is supported on the lower outer shoulder mentioned on the front of the lower part 12.
