Definitions
- the invention relates to a packaging cup with a prepared removal opening.
- the resulting opening is usually too large to allow small portions to be removed.
- the invention is based on a packaging cup of the type described above and proposes that the removal opening be closed by a tear-open tab, one end of which is connected to a grip element, and the other end of which is arranged in a molded spout.
- the handle element is arranged in a recess on the top, which is surrounded by an annular bead.
- the grip element forms, together with the tear-open tab, an opening device which is made entirely of plastic and in particular is made in one piece with the cup.
- the surrounding bead which should have at least the height of the grip element, serves to tear off the grip element, which can be designed as a ring, for example to protect another type of damage. This also makes the packaging cups easier to stack.
- the pull tab is limited by thin areas of the cup material. These thin spots indicate the prepared removal opening and prevent the tear-open tab from tearing open in an uncontrolled manner.
- An embodiment of the invention has a gap for the tear tab in the annular bead.
- the upper region of the cup has a smaller diameter than the lower region and if the pouring spout is molded onto the gradation between the two regions. This results in additional stabilization of the cup.
- the pouring spout can be molded in such a way that it does not form a projection that protrudes beyond the larger diameter of the cup. The stacking process before filling is not disturbed.
- a projection which is delimited by two surfaces can be formed on the step opposite the pouring spout in the upper region.
- This projection can be designed as a handle, for example. Since this projection also has approximately the radius of the pouring spout, it does not protrude beyond the side of the cup. This projection also provides additional stiffening of the packaging cup.
- the packaging cup can be made of a suitable plastic material as an injection molded part, with the bottom remaining open.
- the cups can be inserted one into the other without bottom parts.
- the cup is filled through the base, then the base is closed with a base part provided for this purpose.
- the sealing can take place, for example, by welding.
- the removal opening 1 is closed by the tear tab 2.
- the tear-open tab is limited by thinnings 11 of the cup material, and it carries at one end 3 the grip element 5, which can be designed, for example, as a ring.
- the other end 4 of the pull tab 2 closes the pouring spout 6.
- the pouring spout 6 is attached to the gradation 9 of the cup. Opposite the pouring spout, a projection 10 is also formed on the step 9. This projection 10 can be delimited, for example, by rounded surfaces, so that it can be used as a handle.
- pouring spout 6 and projection 10 are formed with approximately the same radius with respect to the central axis 15.
- the grip element 5 for example a ring
- the bead 8 has a gap on the side of the pouring spout 6.
- the tear-open tab 2 lies in this gap.
- the bead 8 has at least the same height as the grip element 5. The bead 8 thus serves to protect the grip element 5 from damage.
- Fig. 2 shows how the cups can be stacked one inside the other, for example for shipping.
- a second cup 14 is inserted into the first cup through the still open bottom.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verpackungsbecher mit einer vorbereiteten Enmahmeöffnung.The invention relates to a packaging cup with a prepared removal opening.
Bisher bekannte Verpackungsbecher zum Verpacken flüssiger oder fester Ware, wie beispielsweise Sahne, Kondensmilch oder auch Süßstoff, sahen vor, daß die Entnahmeöffnung mit einer Schere oder einem Messer aufgeschnitten oder mit einem spitzen Gegenstand eingestoßen werden mußten.Previously known packaging cups for packaging liquid or solid goods, such as cream, condensed milk or sweetener, provided that the removal opening had to be cut open with scissors or a knife or pushed in with a pointed object.
Die so entstehende Entnahmeöffnung ist auch meist zu groß, um eine Entnahme in kleinen Portionen zu erlauben.The resulting opening is usually too large to allow small portions to be removed.
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Verpackungsbecher vorzusehen, der einfach zu öffnen ist und Entnahme in kleinen Portionen erlaubt. Dazu geht die Erfindung aus von einem Verpackungsbecher der vorher beschriebenen Art und schlägt vor, daß die Entnahmeöffnung von einer Aufreißlasche verschlossen ist, deren eines Ende mit einem Griffelement verbünden ist, und deren anderes Ende in einer angeformten Gießschnaüze angeordnet ist.It is an object of the invention to provide a packaging cup that is easy to open and allows removal in small portions. For this purpose, the invention is based on a packaging cup of the type described above and proposes that the removal opening be closed by a tear-open tab, one end of which is connected to a grip element, and the other end of which is arranged in a molded spout.
Durch das Öffnen mittels Aufreißlasche wird die Benutzung eines anderen Werkzeuges überflüssig, und die entstehende Öffnung kann so klein vorgesehen werden, daß eine Entnahme in kleinen Portionen möglich wird. Durch die angeformte Gießschnauze kann der Inhalt tropffrei entnommen werden.By opening by means of a pull tab, the use of another tool is unnecessary, and the opening that is created can be made so small that it can be removed in small portions. Thanks to the molded spout, the contents can be removed without dripping.
Bei einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist das Griffelement in einer Mulde an der Oberseite angeordnet, die von einem ringförmigen Wulst umgeben ist.In one embodiment of the invention, the handle element is arranged in a recess on the top, which is surrounded by an annular bead.
Das Griffelement bildet zusammen mit der Aufreißlasche eine Öffnungsvorrichtung, die vollständig aus Kunststoff besteht, und insbesondere einstückig mit dem Becher hergestellt ist. Der umgebende Wulst, der mindestens die Höhe des Griffelementes aufweisen soll, dient dazu, das Griffelement, das etwa als Ring ausgebildet sein kann, vor Abreißen oder einer anderen Art der Beschädigung zu schützen. Zudem werden die Verpackungsbecher dadurch leichter stapelbar.The grip element forms, together with the tear-open tab, an opening device which is made entirely of plastic and in particular is made in one piece with the cup. The surrounding bead, which should have at least the height of the grip element, serves to tear off the grip element, which can be designed as a ring, for example to protect another type of damage. This also makes the packaging cups easier to stack.
Von Vorteil ist es, wenn die Aufreißlasche von Dünnstellen des Bechermaterials begrenzt wird. Diese Dünnstellen bezeichnen die vorbereitete Entnahmeöffnung und verhindern ein unkontrolliertes Einreißen der Aufreißlasche.It is advantageous if the pull tab is limited by thin areas of the cup material. These thin spots indicate the prepared removal opening and prevent the tear-open tab from tearing open in an uncontrolled manner.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung besitzt im ringförmigen Wulst eine Lücke für die Aufreißlasche.'An embodiment of the invention has a gap for the tear tab in the annular bead. '
Dadurch wird erreicht, daß das Griffelement, etwa ein Ring, nicht über den Wulst, der die Begrenzung der Oberfläche bildet, hinausragt. So ist es möglich, die Verpackungsbecher zu stapeln, ohne daß das Griffelement beschädigt wird.This ensures that the grip element, such as a ring, does not protrude beyond the bead that forms the boundary of the surface. This makes it possible to stack the packaging cups without damaging the handle element.
Als günstig hat es sich herausgestellt, wenn der obere Bereich des Bechers im Vergleich zum unteren Bereich einen kleineren Durchmesser besitzt, und wenn die Gießschnauze an der Abstufung zwischen den beiden Bereichen angeformt ist. Dadurch wird eine zusätzliche Stabilisierung des Bechers erreicht. Zudem kann die Gießschnauze so angeformt werden, daß sie keinen über den größeren Durchmesser des Bechers hinausragenden Vorsprung bildet. Der Stapelvorgang vor dem Füllen wird nicht gestört.It has proven to be advantageous if the upper region of the cup has a smaller diameter than the lower region and if the pouring spout is molded onto the gradation between the two regions. This results in additional stabilization of the cup. In addition, the pouring spout can be molded in such a way that it does not form a projection that protrudes beyond the larger diameter of the cup. The stacking process before filling is not disturbed.
Zusätzlich kann an der Abstufung gegenüber der Gießschnauze am oberen Bereich ein Vorsprung angeformt sein, der von zwei Flächen begrenzt ist. Dieser Vorsprung kann beispielsweise als Griff ausgebildet sein. Da auch dieser Vorsprung etwa den Radius der Gießschnauze aufweist, ragt er nicht über die Seite des Bechers hinaus. Auch durch diesen Vorsprung wird eine zusätzliche Versteifung des Verpackungsbechers erreicht.In addition, a projection which is delimited by two surfaces can be formed on the step opposite the pouring spout in the upper region. This projection can be designed as a handle, for example. Since this projection also has approximately the radius of the pouring spout, it does not protrude beyond the side of the cup. This projection also provides additional stiffening of the packaging cup.
Der Verpackungsbecher kann aus einem geeigneten Plastikmaterial als Spritzgußteil ausgeführt werden, wobei der Boden offen bleibt. Zum Versand und vor dem Füllen können die Becher ohne Bodenteile ineinander gesteckt werden. Das Füllen des Bechers geschieht durch den Boden, danach wird der Boden mit einem dafür vorgesehenen Bodenteil verschlossen. Das Verschließen kann beispielsweise durch Verschweißen erfolgen.The packaging cup can be made of a suitable plastic material as an injection molded part, with the bottom remaining open. For shipping and before filling, the cups can be inserted one into the other without bottom parts. The cup is filled through the base, then the base is closed with a base part provided for this purpose. The sealing can take place, for example, by welding.
In der Zeichnung ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines erfindungsgemäßen Verpackungsbechers dargestellt. Es zeigen:
- Fig. 1 eine Draufsicht auf den Becher,
- Fig. 2 einen Schnitt entsprechend der Schnittlinie II-II der Fig. 1 und zwar durch zwei gestapelte Becher, und
- Fig. 3 einen teilweisen Schnitt entsprechend der Schnittlinie III-III der Fig. 1.
- 1 is a plan view of the cup,
- Fig. 2 shows a section along the section line II-II of Fig. 1, namely through two stacked cups, and
- 3 is a partial section along the section line III-III of FIG. 1st
Die Entnahmeöffnung 1 wird durch die Aufreißlasche 2 verschlossen. Die Aufreißlasche wird begrenzt durch Verdünnungen 11 des Bechermaterials, und sie trägt an ihrem einen Ende 3 das Griffelement 5, das beispielsweise als Ring ausgebildet sein kann. Das andere Ende 4 der Aufreißlasche 2 verschließt die Gießschnauze 6.The removal opening 1 is closed by the
Die Gießschnauze 6 ist an der Abstufung 9 des Bechers angesetzt. Der Gießschnauze gegenüber ist ebenfalls an der Abstufung 9 ein Vorsprung 10 angeformt. Dieser Vorsprung 10 kann beispielsweise von abgerundeten Flächen begrenzt sein, so daß er als Griff verwendet werden kann.The
Gießschnauze 6 und Vorsprung 10 sind etwa mit dem gleichen Radius bezüglich der Mittelachse 15 ausgebildet. In Fig. 1 ist zu sehen, daß das Griffelement 5, beispielsweise ein Ring, in einer Mulde 7 liegt, die von einem Wulst 8 begrenzt wird. Der Wulst 8 weist an der Seite der Gießschnauze 6 eine Lücke auf. In dieser Lücke liegt die Aufreißlasche 2. Wie aus Fig. 2 hervorgeht, weist der Wulst 8 mindestens die gleiche Höhe wie das Griffelement 5 auf. Der Wulst 8 dient so zum Schutz des Griffelementes 5 vor Beschädigungen.Pouring
Fig. 2 und Fig. 3 zeigen, daß der untere Bereich 12 des Bechers einen größeren Durchmesser aufweist als der obere Bereich 13. Zwischen den beiden Bereichen liegt die Abstufung 9. An der Abstufung 9 sitzen Gießschnauze 6 und Vorsprung 10 am oberen Bereich des Bechers.2 and 3 show that the
