Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Flachbehälter für Süßwaren, insbesondere Wandkalender, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a flat container for confectionery, in particular a wall calendar, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es ist bereits ein Flachbehälter bzw. Wandkalender für Süßwaren der angegebenen Art bekannt (DE-U-85 12 998), der insbesondere als Adventskalender Anwendung findet, wobei die Vorderwand mit 24 Klappen bzw. kleinen Türchen versehen ist, die jeweils entlang einer Faltlinie aufklappbar sind, damit die dahinter in der jeweiligen Vertiefung des Formfolieneinsatzes befindlichen Süßwaren entnommen werden können. Da diese Adventskalender zur Weihnachtszeit verschenkt werden, ist ihre Vorderwand außenseitig in der Regel als Bild mit insbesondere weihnachtlichen Motiven ausgeführt. Die im Innenraum des Flachbehälters festgelegte Spielvorrichtung erhöht den Geschenkwert solcher Adventskalender und bietet einen zusätzlichen Kaufanreiz. Die Außenhülle aus Pappe ist bei dem bekannten Flachbehälter von mehreren Pappzuschnitten gebildet, die durch Falt- und Klebevorgänge zur Außenhülle vereinigt werden. Diese Herstellung ist verhältnismäßig aufwendig, und außerdem können im Gebrauch des Flachbehälters bzw. bei der Lagerung und beim Versand Beschädigungen oder ungewollte Betätigungen der Spielvorrichtung infolge deren unzureichender Abschirmung durch die Außenhülle aus Pappe auftreten.A flat container or wall calendar for confectionery of the specified type is already known (DE-U-85 12 998), which is used in particular as an advent calendar, the front wall being provided with 24 flaps or small doors, each of which can be opened along a fold line are so that the confectionery located behind them in the respective recess of the molded film insert can be removed. Since these advent calendars are given away at Christmas time, the outside of their front wall is usually designed as a picture with Christmas motifs in particular. The game device set in the interior of the flat container increases the gift value of such advent calendars and offers an additional incentive to buy. In the known flat container, the cardboard outer casing is formed by several cardboard blanks which are combined to form the outer casing by folding and gluing processes. This production is relatively complex, and in addition, damage or unwanted actuation of the game device can occur in the use of the flat container or in storage and shipping as a result of its inadequate shielding by the outer casing made of cardboard.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Flachbehälter für Süßwaren, insbesondere Wandkalender, mit einer dessen Geschenkwert erhöhenden Spielvorrichtung zu schaffen, der in seiner Herstellung vereinfacht ist, eine gute Handhabbarkeit aufweist und der Spielvorrichtung einen sicheren Schutz gegenüber unerwünschten äußeren Druckeinflüssen bietet.The invention has for its object to provide a flat container for confectionery, in particular wall calendars, with a game device increasing its gift value, which is simplified in its manufacture, has good manageability and offers the game device reliable protection against undesired external pressure influences.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Ausgestaltung des Flachbehälters gemäß dem Anspruch 1 gelöst. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung kann der Flachbehälter insbesondere als Faltschachtel ausgeführt sein, deren einziger, einteiliger Pappzuschnitt die die Rückwand bildende Klappe darbietet. Die Ausnehmung in der Rückwand kann dabei durch einen einfachen Stanzvorgang im flachliegenden Zustand des Pappzuschnitts hergestellt werden, um im zum Flachbehälter zusammengefalteten und entlang einem Längsseitenrand zusammengeklebten Zustand des Pappzuschnitts eine Zugangsöffnung zum Innenraum des Behälters zu bilden, der im Bereich der Ausnehmung die Spielvorrichtung enthält. Die Spielvorrichtung kann dem Spieltrieb von Kindern Rechnung tragen und beispielsweise als Spieluhr oder auch als elektronischer Musikspielautomat ausgeführt sein. Diese an sich bekannten Musikspielautomaten umfassen einen dünnen, plättchenförmigen Musikchip sowie Batterie und Lautsprecher und einen geeigneten Auslösemechanismus, bei dessen Betätigung eine Melodie, im Falle der Verwendung des Flachbehälters als Adventskalender ein Weihnachts- oder Adventslied, ertönt. Ungeachtet der Ausnehmung in der Rückwand und der dieser gegenüberliegenden Klappe in der Vorderwand besitzt der erfindungsgemäße Flachbehälter eine solche Stabilität und Eigensteifigkeft seiner von dem Pappzuschnitt gebildeten Außenhülle, daß er neben einer maschinellen Verarbeitbarkeit den Vorteil einer guten Handhabbarkeit bei der Lagerung, beim Versand und im Gebrauch aufweist, die insbesondere auch eine Beschädigung oder ungewollte Betätigung der Spielvorrichtung bzw. des Musikchips durch entsprechende Abstützung gegenüber äußeren Druckeinflüssen verhindert. Dies erreicht der Flachbehälter durch die senkrecht zu seiner Vorderwand ausgerichteten, den Breitenabstand zwischen der Vorderwand und der Rückwand überbrückenden Flansche mit ihren Verklebungsansätzen am Rand der Ausnehmung, wodurch die Spielvorrichtung nicht nur sicher festgelegt, sondern der Pappzuschnitt der Außenhülle auch soweit versteift wird, daß die durch die aus der Rückwand ausgestanzte Ausnehmung und die in Gegenüberlage zu dieser in die Vorderwand eingebrachte Klappe in den einteiligen Pappzuschnitt eingetragene Schwächung seiner Eigensteifigkeit und damit Handhabbarkeit weitgehend aufgehoben und der Pappzuschnitt ohne weiteres mit einfachen Mitteln einer maschinellen Verarbeitung zugänglich ist.This object is achieved by an embodiment of the flat container according to claim 1. In this embodiment, the flat container can in particular be designed as a folding box, the single, one-piece cardboard blank of which is provided by the flap forming the rear wall. The recess in the rear wall can be produced by a simple punching process in the flat state of the cardboard blank in order to form an access opening to the interior of the container in the state of the cardboard blank which is folded together and glued together along a longitudinal side edge and which contains the gaming device in the region of the recess. The game device can take children's play instinct into account and can be designed, for example, as a music box or as an electronic music slot machine. These well-known music slot machines comprise a thin, platelike music chip as well as battery and loudspeaker and a suitable trigger mechanism, when actuated a melody sounds, in the case of using the flat container as an advent calendar a Christmas or Advent song. Regardless of the recess in the rear wall and the flap opposite this in the front wall, the flat container according to the invention has such stability and inherent rigidity of its outer casing formed by the cardboard blank that, in addition to being machinable, it has the advantage of good handling during storage, shipping and use has, which in particular prevents damage or unwanted actuation of the game device or the music chip by appropriate support against external pressure influences. This achieves the flat container by the flanges aligned perpendicular to its front wall, bridging the width distance between the front wall and the rear wall, with their bonding approaches at the edge of the recess, as a result of which the game device is not only securely fixed, but the cardboard cut of the outer shell is also stiffened to such an extent that the weakening of its inherent rigidity and thus manageability largely eliminated by the cutout punched out of the rear wall and the flap introduced into the front wall in the front wall in relation to this, and the cardboard cut is readily accessible to machine processing with simple means.

Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und der nachstehenden Beschreibung in Verbindung mit der Zeichnung, in der mehrere Ausführungsbeispiele des Gegenstands der Erfindung schematisch veranschaulicht sind.Further features and advantages of the invention emerge from the subclaims and the following description in conjunction with the drawing, in which several exemplary embodiments of the subject matter of the invention are illustrated schematically.

Der in der Zeichnung dargestellte Flachbehälter ist als flacher Wandkalender, insbesondere als Adventskalender ausgeführt und von einem einteiligen Pappzuschnitt nach Art einer Faltschachtel gebildet, in deren Innenraum ein Formfolieneinsatz mit Süßwaren aufnehmenden Vertiefungen untergebracht ist. Die Vertiefungen sind zur Behältervorderseite hin offen und hinter Klappen in der Behältervorderseite angeordnet, die zur Herausnahme der Süßwaren aus den Vertiefungen des Formfolieneinsatzes geöffnet werden können.The flat container shown in the drawing is designed as a flat wall calendar, in particular as an advent calendar, and is formed from a one-piece cardboard blank in the manner of a folding box, in the interior of which a molded film insert with recesses accommodating confectionery is accommodated. The recesses are open towards the front of the container and are arranged behind flaps in the front of the container, which can be opened to remove the confectionery from the recesses in the molded film insert.

Der Pappzuschnitt bildet in seinem faltschachtelartig zusammengefalteten und verklebten Zustand eine Außenhülle für den Formfolieneinsatz mit einer Vorderwand 1, einer Rückwand 2 und schmalen Seitenwänden 3 und 4, die sämtlich einteilig, d.h. von dem einteiligen Pappzuschnitt als Ausgangswerkstück, ausgeführt sind. Dabei ist die Seitenwand 4 mit einer einwärts gerichteten längslaufenden Klebelasche 5 versehen und hier mittels eines Klebstoffauftrags 6 mit dem angrenzenden Randbereich der Rückwand 2 verklebt.The cardboard blank, when folded and glued in the manner of a folding box, forms an outer shell for the use of shaped films with a front wall 1, a rear wall 2 and narrow side walls 3 and 4, all of which are made in one piece, ie from the one-piece cardboard blank as the starting workpiece. The side wall is 4th provided with an inwardly directed longitudinal adhesive flap 5 and here glued to the adjacent edge area of the rear wall 2 by means of an adhesive application 6.

Bevor der Pappzuschnitt zur Faltschachtel mit der aus Fig. 2 ersichtlichen Querschnittsform geformt ist, ist im flachliegenden Zustand des Pappzuschnitts eine Ausnehmung 7 in die Rückwand 2 gestanzt worden. Dieser Stanzvorgang kann gleichzeitig mit der Stanzbearbeitung der Vorderwand 1 des Behälters zum Anbringen der Klappen bzw. kleinen Türchen zur Herausnahme der Süßwaren aus dem Formfolieneinsatz durchgeführt werden. Die Ausnehmung 7 schafft eine Zugangsöffnung zum Innenraum 8 des Behälters und ist gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 1 bis 3 mit einstückig angeformten Randflanschen 9 der insbesondere aus Fig. 2 ersichtlichen Flächenform versehen. Die vier Randflansche 9 der rechteckig ausgeführten Ausnehmung sind etwa senkrecht zur Vorderwand 1 ausgerichtet und an ihren an die Vorderwand angrenzenden Enden mit rechtwinklig zur Ausnehmung 7 hin abgebogenen Verklebungsansätzen 10 versehen. Die Verklebungsansätze 10 sind, wie dies insbesondere aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich ist, jeweils auf einen mittleren Bereich der Randflansche 9 beschränkt und mittels je eines Klebstoffauftrags 11 mit der Innenseite der Vorderwand 1 verklebt.Before the cardboard blank is formed into the folding box with the cross-sectional shape shown in FIG. 2, a recess 7 has been punched into the rear wall 2 in the flat state of the cardboard blank. This punching process can be carried out simultaneously with the punching of the front wall 1 of the container for attaching the flaps or small doors for removing the confectionery from the molded film insert. The recess 7 creates an access opening to the interior 8 of the container and, according to the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3, is provided with integrally molded edge flanges 9 of the surface shape which can be seen in particular in FIG. 2. The four edge flanges 9 of the rectangular recess are oriented approximately perpendicular to the front wall 1 and are provided at their ends adjoining the front wall with gluing tabs 10 bent at right angles to the recess 7. As can be seen in particular from FIG. 1, the gluing approaches 10 are each limited to a central region of the edge flanges 9 and glued to the inside of the front wall 1 by means of an adhesive application 11 each.

Die Randflansche 9 der Ausnehmung 7 bilden ein vom Innenraum 8 des Behälters abgegrenztes Abteil, in dem eine Spielvorrichtung 12 durch Verklebung, Verriegelung oder in sonst geeigneter Weise festgelegt ist. Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 1 bis 3 ist die Festlegung der Spielvorrichtung 12 durch Verklebung mit Hilfe von Klebstoffaufträgen 11 a vorgenommen, die auf der den Klebstoffaufträgen 11 gegenüberliegenden Seite der Verklebungsansätze 10 angeordnet sind. Dabei ist in der Vorderwand 1 des Behälters in Gegenüberlage der Ausnehmung 7 bzw. der Spielvorrichtung 12 eine Klappe 13 in der Vorderwand 1 vorgesehen, die einen Zugang zur Spielvorrichtung 12 ermöglicht. Die Klappe 13 ist dreiseitig aus der Vorderwand 1 ausgestanzt und an ihrer vierten Seite scharnierseitig unter Ausbildung einer Falzlinie 14 an die Vorderwand 1 angelenkt.The edge flanges 9 of the recess 7 form a compartment delimited from the interior 8 of the container, in which a game device 12 is fixed by gluing, locking or in some other suitable manner. In the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3, the game device 12 is fixed by gluing with the aid of adhesive orders 11 a, which are arranged on the side of the bonding approaches 10 opposite the adhesive orders 11. In this case, a flap 13 is provided in the front wall 1 in the front wall 1 of the container opposite the recess 7 or the game device 12, which allows access to the game device 12. The flap 13 is punched out on three sides of the front wall 1 and articulated on the fourth side on the hinge side to form a fold line 14 on the front wall 1.

Die Kontur der Spielvorrichtung 12 entspricht der Ausnehmung 7 in der Rückwand 2 des Behälters und schließt rückseitig im wesentlichen bündig mit dieser ab. Dabei umfaßt die Spielvorrichtung 12 eine rückseitige Abstützung in Gestalt einer Formplatte 15, in der die elektronische Baueinheit 16 der Spielvorrichtung 12 in einer an die Vorderwand 1 angrenzenden Anordnung festgelegt ist. Die Baueinheit 16 umfaßt dabei als Auslösemechanismus einen lichtempfindlichen Sensor 17, der normalerweise von der Klappe 13 in der Vorderwand 1 abgedeckt und damit verdunkelt gehalten ist.The contour of the game device 12 corresponds to the recess 7 in the rear wall 2 of the container and is essentially flush with the rear. The game device 12 comprises a rear support in the form of a shaped plate 15, in which the electronic unit 16 of the game device 12 is fixed in an arrangement adjacent to the front wall 1. The assembly 16 comprises as a trigger mechanism a light-sensitive sensor 17, which is normally covered by the flap 13 in the front wall 1 and thus kept darkened.

Damit die Verdunkelung des Sensors 17 im Nichtgebrauch der Spielvorrichtung 12 durch eine satte Anlage der Klappe 13 auch bei häufigerer Benutzung gewährleistet bleibt, ist die Klappe 13, die in Fig. 3 in Offenstellung gezeigt ist, mit einer Rückstellfeder versehen, die bestrebt ist, die Klappe 13 in ihrer Schließstellung zu halten. Bei dem dargestellten Beispiel ist die Rückstellfeder von einem Gummiband 18 gebildet, daß im an die Falzlinie 14 angrenzenden Endbereich an der Klappe 13 befestigt, durch einen Kanal 19 durch die Formplatte 15 zur Rückseite der Rückwand 2 geführt und dort mittels einer Befestigungslasche 20 festgelegt ist.So that the darkening of the sensor 17 is guaranteed when the game device 12 is not in use by a full contact of the flap 13 even with frequent use, the flap 13, which is shown in FIG. 3 in the open position, is provided with a return spring which strives to Hold flap 13 in its closed position. In the example shown, the return spring is formed by a rubber band 18 that is attached to the flap 13 in the end region adjacent to the fold line 14, is guided through a channel 19 through the mold plate 15 to the rear of the rear wall 2 and is fixed there by means of a fastening tab 20.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 4 und 5 umfaßt die Spielvorrichtung 12' einen Kartonzuschnitt 21 mit einem kartenförmigen Unterteil 22 und einem kartenförmigen Oberteil 23, die eine der Ausnehmung 7 entsprechende rechteckige Kontur aufweisen und an einem ihrer Ränder durch eine Falzlinie 24 miteinander verbunden sind. An den drei übrigen Seiten können Unterteil 22 und Oberteil 23 randseitig miteinander verklebt sein. Zur Festlegung der Spielvorrichtung 12' in der Ausnehmung 7 ist der Abstützungsunterteil 23 mittels der Klebstoffaufträge 11a mit den vier Verklebungsansätzen 10 der Randflansche 9 der Ausnehmung 7 verklebt. Die elektronische Baueinheit 16' der Spielvorrichtung 12' ist auf der Innenseite des Abstützungsunterteils 22 festgelegt und vom Abstützungsoberteil 23 zur vorderwandseitigen Klappe 13 hin abgedeckt.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 4 and 5, the game device 12 'comprises a cardboard blank 21 with a card-shaped lower part 22 and a card-shaped upper part 23, which have a rectangular contour corresponding to the recess 7 and are connected to one another by a fold line 24 at one of their edges . The lower part 22 and upper part 23 can be glued to one another on the other three sides. In order to fix the game device 12 'in the recess 7, the lower support part 23 is glued to the four adhesive lugs 10 of the edge flanges 9 of the recess 7 by means of the adhesive layers 11a. The electronic assembly 16 'of the game device 12' is fixed on the inside of the lower support part 22 and covered by the upper support part 23 towards the front wall flap 13.

Ebenso wie bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 1 bis 3 die elektronische Baueinheit 16 der Spielvorrichtung 12 durch ein Öffnen der vorderwandseitigen Klappe 13 und damit eine Belichtung des Sensors 17 ausgelöst wird und beispielsweise ein Weihnachtslied mit Hilfe des integrierten MusikChips ertönt, erfolgt auch bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß den Fig. 4 und 5 die Auslösung der elektronischen Baueinheit durch Betätigung der Vorderwandklappe 13.Just as in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3, the electronic assembly 16 of the game device 12 is triggered by opening the front-side flap 13 and thus an exposure of the sensor 17 and, for example, a Christmas carol sounds with the help of the integrated music chip, also takes place in the The embodiment according to FIGS. 4 and 5 triggers the electronic unit by actuating the front panel flap 13.
