Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dispenser pack for receiving packaged goods, in particular disc-shaped packaged goods, with a bag in which the pieces of the packaged goods form a stack, this stack resting on a bottom part of the bag.
  • Such dispenser packs are already known and are used, for example, to hold cotton rondelles.
  • Such rondelles are mainly used for applying or removing make-up or other pasty substances.
  • the rondelles lie on top of each other so that they form a stack in the dispenser pack.
  • the dispenser pack is designed as a pouch made of a film, especially a plastic film.
  • the bag has the shape of a sleeve. The lower end of this sleeve is closed with a base and the stack of rondelles rests on this base. The upper end of the bag is open, with a strip of the bag material being folded in and down in this area. The free edge of this folded strip of material is firmly connected to the underlying material of the bag, for example by welding.
  • the top opening must first be opened. This is done by inserting at least one finger into the upper end part of the bag which is pulled together by means of the cord. The cord closure gives way. A pull on the opening edges then extends the opening so that the diameter of the opening is approximately the same as the diameter of the rondelle. After that, it is not difficult to remove the Rondelle from the packaging.
  • the upper opening After removing a desired number of rondelles, the upper opening must be closed again so that no further rondelles fall out of the bag and the remaining rondelles are protected against dust and other dirt.
  • the opening is closed by pulling the cord. The next time you remove it, you have to open this cap again as described. Opening the package is not a problem in itself, but if you have already covered your fingers with a paste, for example, then the outside of the package is soiled by the paste, etc.
  • the object of the present invention is to eliminate these and still further disadvantages of the known dispenser pack.
  • the dispenser pack for receiving packaged goods has a bag 1 in which the pieces 2 of the packaged goods are accommodated.
  • the pieces 2 of the packaged goods are accommodated.
  • cotton ridges or cotton discs form the packaged goods.
  • the rondelles 2 lie one on top of the other so that they form a stack.
  • Pieces of goods of a different design can also be considered as packaged goods, which at least partially fill the interior of the bag 1 and which can be removed individually or at least in groups from the bag.
  • the bag 1 comprises an essentially cylindrical envelope 5.
  • this envelope 5 is made of a film, advantageously of a plastic film.
  • This envelope 5 consists of two square pieces of film which are placed on top of one another, after which two of the opposite edges of these pieces of film are connected to one another, for example by welding. These edge portions of the film pieces then have seams 6 and 7.
  • the shell 5 can, however, if appropriate, also consist of a thicker and thus also firmer or stiffer material.
  • the bag 1 further comprises a bottom 10, which is located in the area of one of the end parts of the envelope 5. This final par tie is the end part of the bag 1, which lies below when the dispenser pack is ready for use.
  • the stack 2 of the good rests on the bottom 10 of the bag 1.
  • the bottom 10 is designed so that it is relatively stiff. In any case, the bottom 10 is made of a piece of material that is stiffer than the cover 5 made of a film.
  • the bottom 10 can be made of a piece of cardboard, for example. To form the bottom 10, however, a plate made of a plastic could also be used, which is thicker and thus also stiffer than the film 5 mentioned.
  • the outline of the bottom 10 will depend on the outline of the material.
  • connection between the sheath 5 and the base 10 takes place in such a way that an edge strip 8 of the last-mentioned end portion of the sheath 5 is pulled or put over at least a portion of an edge portion 11 (FIG. 2) of the flat bottom 10, after which this are connected to one another, advantageously by welding.
  • the edge 9 of the edge strip 8 is shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 as a fairly irregular line. This is because it is a film whose edge runs irregularly after being welded to the bottom edge part 11.
  • the bottom or bottom portion 10 of the bag 1 has at least one that can be torn off in the central area thereof Section 12 (Fig. 2).
  • This tear-off section 12 is delimited by a weakening cut 13 with respect to the rest of the part, ie with respect to the edge part 11 of the base 10.
  • a weakening cut can be a cut in which two sections of a piece of material are not completely separated from one another and in which this separation takes place only when force is applied.
  • the weakening cut can be made, for example, in such a way that the knife of a corresponding cutting device merely penetrates the piece of material and does not penetrate it.
  • the weakening cut 13 completely surrounds the tear-off or separable bottom section 12 and has a circular course.
  • the weakening or separating cut 13 can also have a different course. This can consist, for example, of straight sections or of such as well as of arcuate sections (not shown).
  • the separating cut 13 need not be closed as shown is. It can also be open (not shown), so that a material tongue is present between the central section 12 and the edge section 11 of the base 10.
  • the material in the area of this tongue is not weakened, so that this tongue can serve as a flexible hinge, via which the middle section 12 is connected to the edge section 11.
  • the central opening in the bottom 10 can thus be closed repeatedly by the central section 12 as if by a cover.
  • the inner section 12 is broken out of the base 10.
  • this base portion 12 is pressed into the interior of the dispenser package.
  • the central section 12 is located inside the dispenser package and because of the rigidity of the base material, it is not easy to remove this base section 12 from the inside of the dispenser package.
  • a further tear-off section 15 (FIG. 2) is provided in the bottom 15.
  • This further bottom section 15 lies within the tear-off section 12 already mentioned and is therefore smaller than the first-mentioned bottom section 12. For this reason, the first separable bottom section 12 here also becomes the larger bottom section and the second separable Bo The section 15 is also referred to here as the smaller bottom section.
  • the second, smaller bottom section 15 is separated from the first, larger bottom section 12 with the aid of a further separating or weakening cut 16.
  • This second separating cut 16 can be made the same as the first separating cut 13 and it can also have the material bridges 14 already described.
  • the second separating cut 16 can, as shown, run in a circle. In the example shown, the separating cuts 13 and 16 are concentric.
  • the contours of the bottom sections 11, 12 and 15 can be at equal distances from one another and from the outer edge 17 of the edge section 11 of the bottom 10.
  • the second separating cut 16 can also have a course other than circular, wherein the statements made in connection with the first separating cut 13 apply to this course. If this is expedient, then a certain part of the second separating cut 16 can be closer to the first separating cut 13 than the rest of the same.
  • FIGS. 4 to 6 Three phases of the operation of such a dispenser pack are shown in FIGS. 4 to 6.
  • a finger With a finger, one first presses on the inner, smaller inner floor section 15 (FIG. 4), which thereby separates from the outer, larger inner floor section 12 is cut along the inner, shorter parting cut 16.
  • the smaller base section 15 can be easily pressed into the interior of the dispenser pack, because the inner edge 16 of the larger base inner section 12 becomes free. Now you can reach under this inner edge 16 with the tip of your finger (FIG. 5) and pull.
  • the larger bottom section 12 separates from the edge portion 11 of the bottom 10 in the area of the outer, longer separating cut 13 and the outermost rondelle 2, which is the lowest in the dispenser pack, then appears in the opening 13 of the bottom 10, as shown in FIG 3 is shown. Then one or more rondelles 2 can be pulled out of the dispenser pack (FIG. 6).
  • the other or upper end portion 19 of the dispenser pack shown in FIG. 1 is provided with a cord closure 20.
  • This end portion 19 of the cylindrical bag cover 5 would normally be open.
  • a strip 23 of the casing material in this end part 19 is folded inwards and then downwards.
  • the free edge of this folded-over strip of material is firmly connected to the section 25 of the bag cover 5 underneath, for example by welding.
  • a channel is formed in the upper edge part of the bag cover 5, through which a cord 21 passes.
  • the ends of this cord 21 are knotted together tet, so that this cord 21 represents a self-contained structure.
  • the larger section of this cord loop 21 is located as a pulling section thereof outside the channel in the sheath 5.
  • the dispenser pack can be hung on a hook or the like by means of the outer portion of the closure cord 21, so that the bottom 10, as has already been mentioned, is at the bottom.
  • the bottom 22 of the embodiment of the casing 5 just mentioned is, however, smooth and there is no possibility of hanging such a dispenser pack on a hook or the like, which is usually required by the buyers. So that the upper end part 19 of the sleeve-shaped casing 5 can also be provided with a cord closure 20, the bottom 22 is located Sleeve 5 inside the end portion 19 of the shell having this bottom 22. That edge strip 23 of the jacket of the sleeve 5, which directly adjoins the sleeve base 22 and which is located between this base 22 and the upper edge 24 of the sleeve jacket, is consequently also located in the interior of this sleeve end part 19.
  • Such a dispenser can only be opened with one hand and is also very easy to open. Afterwards, the dispenser pack can remain open for the removal of further pieces of packaged goods because the opening 13 for removing further packaged goods 2 is located in the bottom 10 of the dispenser pack. For this reason the pieces of good 2 remaining in the dispenser pack cannot be contaminated, for example, by dust, splashing water or the like. Since the diameter of the removal opening 13 in the edge part 11 of the base 10 is somewhat smaller than the outer diameter of the good pieces 2, the good pieces still present in the pack cannot fall out of the dispenser pack. Since the dispenser pack is kept in the suspended state, the pieces of good 2 still present inside the same lie on the floor 10 in an orderly manner.
