Abstract

Bottle carrier consisting of an integral cardboard blank which possesses a cover sheet, two side walls and two end walls. The side walls are subdivided by obliquely extending fold lines into three sections whose free ends are bonded to the end walls. As a result, the finally bonded bottle carrier can be laid flat again. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen kappenförmigen Flaschenträger für wenigstens zwei Flaschen, der aus einem einteiligen Kartonzuschnitt hergestellt und mit Ausnehmungen versehen ist, in welche die Flaschen imt ihrem Kopf eingreifen, wobei sich ein vorstehender Absatz der Flaschen an den die Ausnehmungen umgebenden Randabschnitten abstützt und wobei die Ausnehmungen in einer horizontalen Deckplatte vorgesehen sind, sowie mit an den beiden einander gegenüberliegenden Längsrändern der Deckplatte angelenkten Seitenwänden.The invention relates to a cap-shaped bottle carrier for at least two bottles, which is made from a one-piece cardboard blank and is provided with recesses into which the bottles engage in their heads, a projecting shoulder of the bottles being supported on the edge sections surrounding the recesses, and the recesses are provided in a horizontal cover plate, and with side walls articulated on the two opposite longitudinal edges of the cover plate.

Aus der DE-A-36 27 564 ist bereits ein Flaschenträger dieser Art bekannt, der den Flaschen zwar einen hervorragenden Halt gewährt, der aber nur bei einer Ausführung für bis zu vier Flaschen verhältnismäßig einfach und mit noch vertretbarem Materialverbrauch herstellbar ist.From DE-A-36 27 564 a bottle carrier of this type is already known which, although it gives the bottles an excellent hold, can only be produced relatively easily and with a reasonable amount of material in one version for up to four bottles.

Aus der US-A-4 190 149 ist ebenfalls ein derartiger Flaschenträger bekannt, der aber den Nachteil hat, daß sich beim Zusammenfalten Zwickelecken bilden, welche beim Transport im zusammengelegten Zustand einen hohen Raumbedarf ergeben.Such a bottle carrier is also known from US-A-4 190 149, but it has the disadvantage that when folded, gusset corners are formed which result in a large space requirement when transported in the folded state.

Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Flaschenträger zu schaffen, der einerseits den Flaschen einen guten Halt gewährt und andererseits fertig hergestellt raumsparend transportiert werden kann.In contrast, the object of the invention is to create a bottle carrier which on the one hand grants the bottles a good hold and on the other hand can be transported in a space-saving manner when finished.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch den in Anspruch 1 definierten Flaschenträger gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention by the bottle carrier defined in claim 1.

Beim Zusammenfalten des Flaschenträgers entstehen keinerlei Zwickelecken und die eingefalteten Abschnitte werden unmittelbar aufeinander gelegt. Dadurch, daß die Faltlinien zum Unterteilen der Seitenwände von den Ausnehmungen ausgehen, wird darüber hinaus ein kleinformatiegs Zusammenfalten erreicht. Außerdem können dadurch beim Zusammenkleben eventuell entstehende Ungenauigkeiten leicht ausgeglichen werden.When the bottle carrier is folded up, there are no gusset corners and the folded sections are placed directly on top of each other. Because the folding lines for dividing the side walls start from the recesses, a small format folding is also achieved. In addition, this can easily compensate for any inaccuracies that occur when gluing together.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist bei einem Flaschenträger, bei dem von den Ausnehmungen in der Deckplatte radial verlaufende Einschnitte ausgehen, welche die Randabschnitte in mehrere Segmente unterteilen, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß ein Teil der Randabschnitt-Segmente(Lappen) an den Seitenwänden angeformt ist und die Anlenklinie der Seitenwände an der Deckplatte unterbricht.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is in a bottle carrier, in which radially extending incisions extend from the recesses in the cover plate, which divide the edge sections into several segments, characterized in that some of the edge section segments (tabs) are integrally formed on the side walls and interrupts the articulation line of the side walls on the cover plate.

Dadurch wird ein Teil des Flaschengewichtes unmittelbar in die Seitenwände geleitet, was die Deckplatte sehr stark entlastet.As a result, part of the bottle weight is fed directly into the side walls, which greatly relieves the load on the cover plate.

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

Fig.1
einen flachliegenden Kartonzuschnitt mit in den Seitenwänden vorgesehenen Faltlinien,
Fig. 2
den Kartonzuschnitt gemäß Fig. 1, entlang den Faltlinien zusammengelegt und verklebt, und
Fig. 3
einen aus dem Kartonzuschnitt aufgerichteten Flaschenträger, der mit Flaschen bestückt ist.
The invention is illustrated in the drawing using an exemplary embodiment. Show:
Fig. 1
a flat cardboard blank with fold lines provided in the side walls,
Fig. 2
1, folded and glued along the fold lines, and
Fig. 3
a bottle holder erected from the cardboard blank, which is equipped with bottles.

Mit 1 ist in Fig. 1 ein Kartonzuschnitt bezeichnet, der eine Deckplatte 2 enthält, an deren beiden Längsrändern über je eine Faltlinie 3,4 je eine Seitenwand 5,6 angelenkt ist. Beide Seitenwände 5 bzw. 6 sind jeweils durch zwei schräg verlaufende Faltlinien 7,8 bzw. 9,10 in drei Abschnitte 5,51,52 bzw. 6,61,62 unterteilt. Die beiden äußeren Abschnitte 51 und 61 bzw. 52 und 62 werden im aufgerichteten Zustand des Kartonzuschnittes mit je einer Stirnwand 11 bzw. 12 verbunden, die über Faltlinien 13,14 an der Deckplatte 2 angelenkt sind. Die Faltlinien 3 und 4 bestehen jeweils aus zwei hintereinander liegenden Abschnitten, die durch einen an der Seitenwand 5 bzw. 6 angeformten Lappen 15 bzw. 16 von einander getrennt sind. Diese Lappen 15 und 16 sind jeweils durch einen Einschnitt 17,18 in zwei Abschnitte unterteilt und ragen in jeweils eine Ausnehmung 19 bzw. 20 hinein, die in der Deckplatte 2 vorgesehen sind. An beiden Enden der beiden Faltlinien 3,4 sind weitere Lappen 21,22 bzw. 23,24 vorgesehen, die an den beiden Seitenwänden 5 bzw. 6 angeformt sind und in weitere Ausnehmungen 25,26 bzw. 27,28 in den Seitenwänden hineinstehen. Die Ausnehmungen 19,20,25,26,27,28 werden durch an der Deckplatte 2 angeformte Lappen 29 begrenzt, welche mit dieser über eine Faltlinie 30 verbunden sind.1 in FIG. 1 denotes a cardboard blank which contains a cover plate 2, on the two longitudinal edges of which a side wall 5, 6 is articulated via a fold line 3, 4. Both side walls 5 and 6 are each divided into three sections 5,51,52 and 6,61,62 by two oblique folding lines 7,8 and 9,10. In the erected state of the cardboard blank, the two outer sections 51 and 61 or 52 and 62 are each connected to an end wall 11 or 12, which are hinged to the cover plate 2 via fold lines 13, 14. The fold lines 3 and 4 each consist of two sections lying one behind the other, which are separated from one another by a flap 15 and 16 formed on the side wall 5 and 6, respectively. These tabs 15 and 16 are each divided by an incision 17, 18 into two sections and each protrude into a recess 19 and 20, respectively, which are provided in the cover plate 2. At both ends of the two folding lines 3, 4, further flaps 21, 22 and 23, 24 are provided, which are formed on the two side walls 5 and 6 and protrude into further recesses 25, 26 and 27, 28 in the side walls. The recesses 19, 20, 25, 26, 27, 28 are delimited by flaps 29 formed on the cover plate 2, which are connected to the latter by a fold line 30.

Nach dem Verkleben der beiden Stirnwände 11,12 mit den Abschnitten 51,61 bzw. 52,62 der beiden Seitenwände können die Stirnwände zusammen mit diesen Abschnitten nach unten eingefaltet werden - wie dies in Fig. 2 dargestellt ist - so daß der an sich fertige Flaschenträger wieder flach liegt.After the two end walls 11, 12 have been glued to the sections 51, 61 and 52, 62 of the two side walls, the end walls can be folded down together with these sections - as shown in FIG. 2 - so that the finished one Bottle carrier lies flat again.

Ein aufgerichteter Flaschenträger ist in Fig. 3 dargestellt und mit sechs Flaschen 31 bestückt. Die Köpfe dieser Flaschen ragen durch die Ausnehmungen in der Deckplatte 2 hindurch und sind durch die Lappen gehalten.An upright bottle carrier is shown in Fig. 3 and equipped with six bottles 31. The heads of these bottles protrude through the recesses in the cover plate 2 and are held by the tabs.
