Abstract

The container holder for containers with an edge flange arranged in two rows one above the other is formed from a single-piece cardboard blank and has a bottom wall (2) with openings (3, 4) for inserting the containers (25) of the bottom row. Projecting into these openings are flaps which are rotated by the containers and then grip below their edge flange. Provided for the upper containers (30) are end wall flaps (26, 27, 28, 29) which secure the containers against slipping out laterally. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Verpackungsträger für becherförmige Behälter mit Randflansch, die in zwei überein anderliegenden Reihen angeordnet sind.The invention relates to a packaging carrier for cup-shaped containers with an edge flange, which are arranged in two rows one above the other.

Insbesondere bei derartigen doppelstöckigen Verpackungsträgern (siehe z.B. FR-A-2.089.413) ist es schwierig, den Behältern einen so guten Halt zu gewähren, daß sie auch bei unsachgemäßer Handhabung nicht aus dem Träger herausfallen. Dies ist insbesondere dann schwierig, wenn die Behälter zwar Randflansche aufweisen, an diesen aber nicht verbunden sind.In particular with such double-tier packaging carriers (see e.g. FR-A-2.089.413) it is difficult to ensure that the containers are held so well that they do not fall out of the carrier even when handled improperly. This is particularly difficult when the containers have edge flanges but are not connected to them.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Verpackungsträger der genannten Art zu schaffen, der auch einzelnen becherförmigen Behältern mit Randflansch einen sicheren Halt gewährleistet.The invention has for its object to provide a packaging carrier of the type mentioned, which ensures a secure hold even individual cup-shaped containers with edge flange.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch den im einzigen Anspruch angegebenen Verpackungsträger gelöst.This object is achieved by the packaging carrier specified in the single claim.

Damit ist erreicht, daß der Verpackungsträger aus einem verhältnismäßig leichten Karton bestehen kann, leicht und rationell aufrichtbar ist und trotzdem eine zuverlässig zusammenhaltende Verkaufspackung bildet.It is thus achieved that the packaging carrier can consist of a relatively light cardboard box, can be erected easily and rationally and nevertheless forms a sales package which holds together reliably.

In der Zeichnung ist die Erfindung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels veranschaulicht. Dabei zeigen:

eine schaubildliche Darstellung eines fertigen Verpackungsträgers mit vier in zwei übereinanderliegenden Reihen angeordneten Behältern.
The invention is illustrated in the drawing using an exemplary embodiment. Show:
Fig. 1
a view of a flat cardboard blank and
Fig. 2
a diagrammatic representation of a finished packaging carrier with four containers arranged in two rows one above the other.

Mit 1 ist in Fig. 1 ein Kartonzuschnitt bezeichnet, der eine untere Wand 2 aufweist, welche mit Öffnungen 3 und 4 verse hen ist. Über Faltlinien 5 und 6 sind an die untere Wand zwei Schrägflächen 7 und 8 angelenkt, die ihrerseits über weitere Faltlinien 9 und 10 mit Seitenwänden 11 und 12 verbunden sind. Auf der von der jeweiligen Schrägfläche abgekehrten Seite jeder Seitenwand ist eine Faltlinie 13 bzw. 14 vorgesehen, über welche ein Abschnitt 15 bzw. 16 einer Deckwand angeformt ist.
An den beiden Schrägflächen 7 und 8 sind Lappen 17,18 bzw.With 1 in Fig. 1, a cardboard blank is designated, which has a lower wall 2, which is hen with openings 3 and 4 verses. Two inclined surfaces 7 and 8 are hinged to the lower wall via folding lines 5 and 6, which in turn are connected to side walls 11 and 12 via further folding lines 9 and 10. On the side of each side wall facing away from the respective inclined surface, a folding line 13 or 14 is provided, via which a section 15 or 16 of a top wall is formed.
On the two inclined surfaces 7 and 8 there are tabs 17, 18 and

Claims (1)

  1. Carry pack for tub-shaped containers (25, 30) with a rim that are positioned in two rows on top of each other, where the carry pack is produced from a single-piece blank (1) made from board or a similar material and has a bottom panel (2) with openings (3, 4) to accomodate the containers (25) in the bottom row, where two inclined panels (7,8) are hinged to the bottom panel (2) by folding lines (5, 6), which in turn have side panels (11, 12) attached to them, to which top panel sections (15, 16) and end panel sections (26, 27, 28, 29) are hinged, which overlap and are connected appropriately when the carry pack has been erected, and where the inclined panels (7, 8) have tabs (17, 18, 19, 20) which remain when the openings (3, 4) in the bottom panel are die-cut, and where the lower sections of end panel flaps (21, 22), which are hinged to the two ends of the bottom panel (2) and the top sections of which engage the underneath of the rims of the containers (25) in the bottom row, also remain when the said die-cutting operation is carried out.
