Description

Tütenförmige Verpackungen werden sehr häufig für Eistüten verwendet, wobei zum Verzehr der Eiskrem und der diese umhüllenden Waffeltüte die Verpackung wenigstens teilweise entfernt werden muß. Da beim Aufreißen eine zumindest unschöne Aufreißkante entsteht, wird im allgemeinen die Verpackung vollständig entfernt. Das ist aber wiederum unvorteilhaft, weil die Waffeltüten oft undicht sind und damit die Eiskrem beim Flüssigwerden austreten kann. Darüber hinaus ist das vollständige Entfernen der Verpackung auch unhygienisch, da das zum Verzehr bestimmte Füllgut unmittelbar erfaßt wird. Bei Füllgütern, die beispielsweise einen Schokoladenüberzug haben, wäre das vollständige Entfernen der Verpackung äußerst ungünstig, da die Schokolade unter dem Einfluß der Handwärme schmilzt.Bag-shaped packaging is very often used for ice cream cones, with the packaging having to be at least partially removed in order to eat the ice cream and the waffle bag enveloping it. Since an at least unsightly tear-off edge arises when the tear is opened, the packaging is generally completely removed. But this is again disadvantageous because the waffle bags are often leaky and the ice cream can leak when they become liquid. In addition, the complete removal of the packaging is also unsanitary, since the filling material intended for consumption is immediately detected. In the case of fillings that have a chocolate coating, for example, the complete removal of the packaging would be extremely unfavorable, since the chocolate melts under the influence of the warmth of the hands.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine tütenförmige Verpackung zu schaffen, bei der es möglich ist, einen oberen Teilabschnitt auf einfache Weise zu entfernen und einen funktionsfähigen unteren Abschnitt der Verpackung am Füllgut zu belassen.The invention has for its object to provide a bag-shaped packaging in which it is possible to easily remove an upper portion and to leave a functional lower portion of the packaging on the contents.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäße eine tütenförmige Verpackung vorgeschlagen, die aus einem flachliegenden Zuschnitt aus einem flexiblen Material gewickelt und entlang einer Längsnaht verschlossen ist, wobei der Zuschnitt die Form eines asymmetrischen Kreissegmentes aufweist, wodurch sich beim Wickeln zu einer kegelförmigen Tütenform eine wenigstens annähernd punktförmige Spitze ausbildet, und wobei das flexible Material wenigstens eine Lage enthält, die aus einer monoaxial orientierten Kunststoffolie besteht, deren Orientierungsrichtung etwa in Umfangsrichtung der Verpackung verläuft, und wobei der Material-Zuschnitt an dem bei Bildung der Längsnaht außenliegenden Abschnitt wenigstens eine Einreißkerbe aufweist.To achieve this object, a bag-shaped packaging according to the invention is proposed, which consists of a flat blank made of a flexible material is wound and closed along a longitudinal seam, the blank being in the form of an asymmetrical circular segment, as a result of which an at least approximately point-shaped tip is formed when wrapped into a conical bag shape, and the flexible material contains at least one layer which consists of a monoaxially oriented plastic film , the orientation of which extends approximately in the circumferential direction of the packaging, and wherein the material blank has at least one tear notch on the portion lying outside when the longitudinal seam is formed.

Aufgrund der asymmetrischen Ausgestaltung des kreissegmentförmigen Zuschnittes wird beim Wickeln der Verpackung um einen kegelförmigen Dorn eine ausgeprägte Spitze gebildet, zu der die Verschluß-Längsnaht im unteren Abschnitt spiralförmig verläuft. Dadurch kann eine dichte Ausgestaltung auch im Bereich der Spitze erzielt werden. Durch die zusätzliche Anordnung einer monoaxial orientierten Kunststoffolie sowie einer Einreißkerbe wird darüber hinaus ein leichtes und sauberes Auftrennen der Verpackung erreicht.Due to the asymmetrical design of the circular segment-shaped blank, when the packaging is wrapped around a conical mandrel, a pronounced tip is formed, to which the longitudinal closure seam runs spirally in the lower section. As a result, a dense configuration can also be achieved in the area of the tip. The additional arrangement of a monoaxially oriented plastic film and a tear notch also enables easy and clean separation of the packaging.

Aus der nachveröffutlichten EP-A-016956 (Veröffentlichungstag 29.01.86) ist es zwar bei einer entlang von Faltlinien flachgelegten Verpackung bekannt, eine monoaxial orientierte Kunststoffolie vorzusehen. Diese Verpackung muß jedoch aufgrund ihrer Ausgestaltung zum Abdichten im unteren Bereich mit einer Quersiegelnaht versehen werden und eignet sich damit nicht für das Verpacken von spitzkegeligen Eistüten oder dergleichen.From the subsequently published EP-A-016956 (publication date January 29, 1986) it is known to provide a monoaxially oriented plastic film for a package laid flat along fold lines. However, due to its design for sealing in the lower area, this packaging must be provided with a transverse sealing seam and is therefore not suitable for packaging conical ice cream cones or the like.

Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der Erfindung liegt darin, daß an dem bei Bildung der Längsnaht außenliegenden Abschnitt des Material-Zuschnittes ein vorstehender Lappen angeformt ist.An advantageous development of the invention resides in the fact that a projecting flap is formed on the portion of the material blank that is on the outside when the longitudinal seam is formed.

Dieser Lappen ist außerhalb des Klebebereiches der Längsnaht, wodurch er leicht erfaßbar und damit die Verpackung einfach aufreißbar ist.This flap is outside the adhesive area of the longitudinal seam, which makes it easy to grasp and thus the packaging is easy to tear open.

Sehr vorteilhaft ist es auch, wenn erfindungsgemäß an dem der Spitze der Verpackung zugekehrten Ende des vorstehenden Lappens die Einreißkerbe vorgesehen ist.It is also very advantageous if, according to the invention, the tear notch is provided on the end of the projecting tab facing the tip of the packaging.

Dadurch wird Aufreißkraft gezielt am einen Ende der vorgesehenen Aufreißlinie eingeleitet.As a result, tear force is specifically introduced at one end of the tear line provided.

Erfindungsgemäß kann aber auch vorgesehen sein, daß sich der Lappen nur über einen begrenzten Abschnitt der Längsnaht erstreckt, und daß beiderseits des Lappens je eine Einreißkerbe vorgesehen ist.According to the invention, however, it can also be provided that the flap only extends over a limited section of the longitudinal seam, and that a tear notch is provided on each side of the flap.

Bei dieser Ausgestaltung ist das Öffnen besonders einfach, da die Aufreißkraft gleichzeitig über beide Einreißkerben eingeleitet und dann der zwischen beiden liegende Streifen völlig gleichmäßig herausgetrennt wird.In this embodiment, the opening is particularly simple since the tear force is simultaneously introduced via both tear grooves and the strip lying between the two is then separated out completely uniformly.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung liegt darin, daß die Längsnaht in dem Bereich der Verpackung, der entfernt werden soll, eine verminderte Haftung aufweist.An advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the longitudinal seam has reduced adhesion in the area of the packaging that is to be removed.

Dadurch ist zum einen das Anreißen des zu entfernenden Abschnittes erleichtert, zum anderen wird aber eine ganz wesentliche Vereinfachung des endgültigen Abreißens dieses Abschnittes erzielt. Am Ende muß nämlich der zu entfernende Abschnitt unter der Längsnaht des verbleibenden, der Spitze der Verpackung zugekehrten Verpackungsteils herausgetrennt werden. Ohne eine Herabsetzung der Haftkraft der Längsnaht wäre das zwar auch möglich, es würde aber einen deutlich höheren Kraftaufwand erfordern. Darüber hinaus kann dann nach dem Entfernen des Streifens der oberhalb liegende Teil der Verpackung ebenfalls leicht entfernt werden.On the one hand, this makes it easier to tear off the section to be removed, but on the other hand it considerably simplifies the final tearing off of this section. In the end, the section to be removed must be separated out under the longitudinal seam of the remaining packaging part facing the tip of the packaging. Without a reduction in the adhesive force of the longitudinal seam, this would also be possible, but it would require a significantly higher effort. In addition, after removing the strip, the part of the packaging lying above can also be easily removed.

Sehr vorteilhaft ist es auch, wenn gemäß der Erfindung am Ende wenigstens der der Spitze zugekehrten Aufreißlinie eine dreieckförmige Ausstanzung vorgesehen ist, und daß die Einreißkerbe an dieser Aufreißlinie ebenfalls dreieckförmig ausgebildet ist.It is also very advantageous if, according to the invention, a triangular punching is provided at the end of at least the tear line facing the tip, and that the tear notch on this tear line is also triangular.

Ohne diese dreieckförmige Ausgestaltung würden beim Aufreißen an beiden Enden der Aufreißlinie Spitzen verbleiben, die unschön nach oben abstehen würden.Without this triangular configuration, peaks would remain at both ends of the tear line and would protrude unsightly upwards.

In der Zeichnung ist die Erfindung anhand von zwei Ausführungsbeispielen veranschaulicht. Dabei zeigen:

The invention is illustrated in the drawing using two exemplary embodiments. Show:
Fig. 1
a view of a bag-shaped packaging,
Fig. 2
a flat blank for producing a package according to FIG. 1 and
Fig. 3
another flat cut.

Mit 1 ist in Fig. 1 eine tütenförmige Verpackung bezeichnet, die aus dem in Fig. 2 flachliegend dargestellten Zuschnitt 2 gewickelt ist. Die Verpackung 1 ist entlang einer Längsnaht 3 verschlossen und besteht aus flexiblem Material, das wenigstens eine Lage einer monoaxial orientierten Kunststoffolie enthält.
Bei einer für Eiskrem vorgesehenen Verpackung wurde folgender Aufbau von außen nach innen gewählt:
Papier      70g/qm
Alufolie    12 Mikrometer
PPF         35 Mikrometer1 in FIG. 1 denotes a bag-shaped packaging which is wound from the blank 2 shown flat in FIG. 2. The packaging 1 is closed along a longitudinal seam 3 and consists of flexible material that contains at least one layer of a monoaxially oriented plastic film.
In the case of packaging intended for ice cream, the following structure was chosen from the outside in:
Paper 70g / qm
Aluminum foil 12 microns
PPF 35 microns

Bei einem weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel wurde folgender Aufbau vorgesehen:
Alufolie     7 Mikrometer
Papier      60g/qm
PPF         35 MikrometerThe following structure was provided in a further exemplary embodiment:
Aluminum foil 7 microns
Paper 60g / qm
PPF 35 microns

Bei beiden Ausführungen wurde die Außenlage, nämlich das Papier bzw. die Alufolie, bedruckt und mit einem Überzuglack versehen.In both versions, the outer layer, namely the paper or the aluminum foil, was printed and provided with a top coat.

Die monoaxial orientierte Kunststoffolie kann aus folgenden Materialien bestehen:
Polyäthylen
Polypropylen
Polyamid
Polyäthylentherephtalat
Polyvinylchlorid
Polystyrol
Polycarbonat
wobei diese Aufzählung noch weiter fortgeführt werden könnte; wichtig ist nur, daß sich die Kunststoffolie monoaxial orientieren läßt und dabei spleißfähig wird.The monoaxially oriented plastic film can consist of the following materials:
Polyethylene
Polypropylene
polyamide
Polyethylene terephthalate
Polyvinyl chloride
Polystyrene
Polycarbonate
this list could be continued; it is only important that the plastic film can be oriented monoaxially and thereby becomes spliceable.

Je nach dem Zweck der Verpackung wird dann die geeignete Folie und die übrigen Schichten des Laminates gewählt. Dabei sind auch Kombinationen von mehreren Kunststoffolien denkbar, womit eine durchsichtige Verpackung erzielbar ist.Depending on the purpose of the packaging, the suitable film and the other layers of the laminate are then selected. Combinations of several plastic films are also conceivable, with which transparent packaging can be achieved.

Die Dicke der monoaxial orientierten Kunststoffolie liegt dabei im Bereich von 10 bis 300 Mikrometer und richtet sich nach den Erfordernissen des zu verpackenden Gutes sowie nach den weiteren Laminatschichten.The thickness of the monoaxially oriented plastic film is in the range from 10 to 300 micrometers and depends on the requirements of the goods to be packaged and the other laminate layers.

Die monoaxial orientierte Kunststoffolie kann dabei auch zwischen den anderen Laminatschichten angeordnet sein. Die Orientierungsrichtung der Kunststoffolie wird dabei so gelegt, daß sie etwa in Umfangsrichtung der Verpackung verläuft. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, daß die Zuschnitte so aus der Materialbahn ausgestanzt werden, daß die Orientierung gemäß den in Fig. 2 eingezeichneten Orientierungslinien 4 verläuft. An dem beim Herstellen der Längsnaht 3 außenliegenden Abschnitt sind zwei Einreißkerben 5 ausgestanzt, die ein verhältnismäßig leichtes Einleiten der Aufreißkraft ermöglichen.The monoaxially oriented plastic film can also be arranged between the other laminate layers. The orientation of the plastic film is placed so that it runs approximately in the circumferential direction of the packaging. This is achieved in that the blanks are punched out of the material web in such a way that the orientation runs according to the orientation lines 4 shown in FIG. 2. On the section lying outside when producing the longitudinal seam 3, two tear-in notches 5 are punched out, which enable the tear-open force to be introduced relatively easily.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 3 ist an dem beim Bilden der Längsnaht außenliegenden Abschnitt des Zuschnittes 12 ein vorstehender Lappen 13 angeformt, der das Einleiten der Aufreißkraft noch erleichtert. Auch hierbei sind zwei Einreißkerben 5 vorgesehen.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3, a protruding flap 13 is formed on the portion of the blank 12 which is on the outside when the longitudinal seam is formed, which tab further facilitates the introduction of the tear-open force. Here, too, two tear notches 5 are provided.

Bei beiden Ausführungsbeispielen wird die Aufreißkraft gleichzeitig über die beiden Einreißkerben in die Verpackung eingeleitet. Dabei wird der zwischen den Einreißkerben liegende Abschnitt entlang der beiden in Fig. 1 gestrichelt dargestellten Linien 6 und 7 herausgetrennt, worauf auch der darüberliegende Abschnitt der Verpackung entfernt werden kann. Es ist aber auch möglich, nur eine Einreißkerbe und evtl. einen bis zum oberen Ende reichenden Lappen vorzusehen. Beim Aufreißen wird dann der ganze oberhalb dieser Einreißkerbe liegende Abschnitt entfernt.In both exemplary embodiments, the tear force is simultaneously introduced into the packaging via the two tear notches. The section lying between the tear notches is cut out along the two lines 6 and 7 shown in dashed lines in FIG. 1, whereupon the section of the packaging above it can also be removed. However, it is also possible to provide only one tear notch and possibly a rag reaching to the upper end. When tearing open, the entire section lying above this tear notch is then removed.

Zum Erleichtern des Aufreißens und zum Entfernen des oberen Abschnittes der Verpackung kann - wie in Fig. 1 angedeutet - der obere, durch eine strichpunktierte Linie eingegrenzte Abschnitt 9 der Längsnaht mit verminderter Haftkraft ausgerüstet sein.In order to facilitate tearing open and to remove the upper section of the packaging, the upper section 9 of the longitudinal seam, delimited by a dash-dotted line, of the longitudinal seam can be equipped with reduced adhesive force, as indicated in FIG. 1.

Bei allen Ausführungsbeispielen ist am von der Einreißkerbe 5 abgewandten Ende der unteren Aufreißlinie 6 eine dreieckförmige Ausstanzung 8 angeordnet. Damit sind im Bereich der Längsnaht hochstehende Spitzen vermieden, die beim Verzehr der Eiskrem bzw. der Waffeltüte stören würden.In all of the exemplary embodiments, a triangular punching 8 is arranged at the end of the lower tear line 6 facing away from the tear notch 5. This avoids peaks in the area of the longitudinal seam which would interfere with the consumption of the ice cream or the waffle cone.
