Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Verpackung aus Karton für rieselfähiges Gut wie z.B. Waschmittel, mit zwei Seitenwänden, einer Vorderwand, einer Rückwand, einem Boden und einer an der Rückwand angelenkten Verschlußklappe, die durch weitere, an den anderen Wänden angelenkte Klappen unterlegt ist, wobei die an der Vorderwand angelenkte Klappe über den vollen Querschnitt der Verpackung reicht und einen angelenkten Lappen aufweist, der an der Innenseite der Verschlußklappe anliegt.The invention relates to a cardboard packaging for free-flowing goods such as Detergent, with two side walls, a front wall, a rear wall, a base and a flap hinged to the rear wall, which is underlaid by further flaps hinged to the other walls, the flap hinged to the full cross section of the packaging and has a hinged rag, which rests on the inside of the closure flap.

Eine derartige Verpackung ist in der US-A-2.670.128 beschrieben. Bei der Verpackung gemäß US-A-3 543 997 ist an der Vorderwand eine weitere Klappe angelenkt, die zwar die Verpackung weitgehend verschließt, keineswegs aber dicht ist.Such packaging is described in US-A-2,670,128. In the case of the packaging according to US-A-3 543 997, a further flap is articulated on the front wall, which, although largely closes the packaging, is by no means tight.

Darüber hinaus ist aus der FR-A-755 181 eine Verpackung bekannt, die verhältnismäßig dicht ausgestaltet ist, dazu aber einen kompliziert aufgebauten Faltverschluß aufweist und darüber hinaus nur schwer zu öffnen ist.In addition, a packaging is known from FR-A-755 181, which is designed to be relatively tight, but for this purpose has a complicated folding closure and, moreover, is difficult to open.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Verpackung der genannten Art so auszugestalten, daß sie auch für rieselfähiges Gut, wie z.B. Waschmittel, geeignet ist. Sie muß im verschlossenen Zustand so dicht sein, daß das Waschmittel nicht austreten kann, sie muß leicht und ohne Werkzeug zu öffnen und nach Entnahme einer Teilmenge wieder einigermaßen dicht verschließbar sein.The invention has for its object to design a packaging of the type mentioned so that it is also suitable for free-flowing goods such as detergents. In the closed state it must be so tight that the detergent cannot escape, it must be light and without To open the tool and to be able to close it somewhat tightly after removing a partial quantity.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß beim gegenskund der Anspruch 1 dadurch gelöst, daß die an der Vorderwand angelenkte Klappe parallel und in geringem Abstand von den Oberkanten der beiden Seitenwände verlaufende, wenigstens teilweise doppelspurige Ritzlinien aufweist, die sich auch über den angelenkten Lappen erstrecken und Sollbruchlinien darstellen, und daß an der Verschlußklappe die Seitenwände und die Vorderwand wenigstens geringfügig übergreifende Wandstücke angeformt sind, wobei an dem die Vorderwand übergreifenden Wandstück eine Grifflasche angeformt ist, in deren Bereich eine auftrennbare Klebestelle zur Verbindung mit der Vorderwand vorgesehen ist.This object is achieved in the opposite of claim 1 in that the flap hinged to the front wall has parallel and at a small distance from the upper edges of the two side walls, at least partially double-lined scoring lines, which also extend over the hinged flap and represent predetermined breaking lines, and that on the closure flap the side walls and the front wall are at least slightly overlapping wall pieces, wherein a grip tab is formed on the overlapping wall piece, in the area of which a separable adhesive point is provided for connection to the front wall.

Entlang dieser Ritzlinien, die - da sie nicht durch das Kartonmaterial durchgehen - keine Undichtigkeiten bilden, kann die Abdichtungs-Klappe geöffnet werden, wobei die verbleibenden Randstreifen eine Stabilisierung der geöffneten Verpackung darstellen.The sealing flap can be opened along these scoring lines, which - since they do not pass through the cardboard material - do not form any leaks, the remaining edge strips stabilizing the opened packaging.

Darüber hinaus ist eine besonders einfach zu öffnende Verschlußeinrichtung geschaffen, die aber trotzdem eine ausreichende Verschlußsicherheit und eine gute Dichtigkeit gewährleistet.In addition, a particularly easy-to-open closure device is created, which, however, still ensures adequate security and good tightness.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung liegt darin, daß die an der Vorderwand angelenkte Klappe im Verlauf der Anlenklinie des Lappens mit einer an der Unterseite vorgesehenen Ritzlinie versehen ist, daß von der Oberseite her im Bereich der beiden Enden der Anlenklinie jeweils wenigstens eine Einprägung vorgesehen ist, und daß im Bereich dieser Einprägungen die Ritzlinie unterbrochen ist.An advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the flap hinged to the front wall is provided with a scoring line provided on the underside in the course of the articulation line of the flap, that at least one indentation is provided from the top in the region of the two ends of the articulation line, and that the scratch line is interrupted in the area of these impressions.

Dadurch läßt sich die Klappe noch leichter zusammenfalten, was der Dichtigkeit im Faltbereich zugute kommt; sie läßt sich aber auch sehr leicht zum Öffnen der Verpackung herausreißen.As a result, the flap can be folded up even more easily, which benefits the tightness in the folding area; she leaves but also tear out very easily to open the packaging.

Ebenfalls sehr vorteilhaft ist es, wenn erfindungsgemäß zwischen der an der Vorderwand angelenkten Klappe und der Verschlußklappe an den beiden Seitenwänden angelenkte Lappen eingefaltet sind, die sich höchstens bis zu den in der unteren Klappe vorgesehenen, als Aufreißlinien dienenden Ritzlinien erstrecken.It is also very advantageous if, according to the invention, flaps are hinged between the flap hinged to the front wall and the flap hinged to the two side walls, which extend at most to the scoring lines provided in the lower flap and serving as tear lines.

Beim Einfalten dieser beiden an den Seitenwänden angelenkten Klappen können sich diese durch diese Ausgestaltung auf der großen, an der Vorderwand angelenkten Klappe abstützen und erfahren dadurch einen sehr guten Halt, wodurch auch wieder die Dichtigkeit günstig beeinflußt wird.When these two flaps hinged to the side walls are folded in, they can be supported by this design on the large flap hinged to the front wall and thus experience a very good hold, which also has a favorable influence on the tightness.

Bei einer weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, daß die an den Seitenwänden angelenkten Lappen an ihrem der Anlenklinie der Verschlußklappe zugekehrten Ende abgeschrägt sind, und daß die Ritzlinien entlang der freien Kante der Lappen verlaufen und weniogstens einer Teilstrecke der genannten Abschrägung folgen.In a further embodiment according to the invention it is provided that the flaps hinged to the side walls are chamfered at their end facing the articulation line of the closure flap, and that the scoring lines run along the free edge of the flaps and at least follow a section of the said chamfer.

Dadurch dienen die Kanten der beiden Lappen gleichzeitig als Aufreißlineal, was das Aufreißen noch weiter erleichtert.As a result, the edges of the two tabs serve simultaneously as a ruler, which further facilitates tearing.

Sehr vorteilhaft ist es auch, wenn erfindungsgemäß die Lappen mit der Oberseite der an der Vorderwand angelenkten Klappe verklebt sind.It is also very advantageous if, according to the invention, the tabs are glued to the top of the flap hinged to the front wall.

Dadurch wird die Steifigkeit und damit einhergehend die Dichtigkeit der Verpackung noch weiter gesteigert.This further increases the rigidity and the tightness of the packaging.

Erfindungsgemäß kann auch vorgesehen sein, daß der an der inneren Verschlußklappe angelenkte Lappen im von den Ritzlinien abgeteilten Seitenbereich mit der Innenseite der äußeren Verschlußklappe verklebt ist.According to the invention it can also be provided that the flap articulated on the inner closure flap in the side area divided by the scoring lines with the inside of the outer closure flap is glued.

Über diese Seitenbereiche bleiben die Randstreifen mit der Verschlußklappe verbunden, woraus sich eine verbesserte Verwindungssteifigkeit ergibt.The edge strips remain connected to the closure flap via these side regions, which results in improved torsional rigidity.

Das Öffnen der Verschlußeinrichtung ist besonders einfach, wenn erfindungsgemäß an dem die Vorderwand übergreifenden Wandstück eine Grifflasche angeformt ist,in deren Bereich eine auftrennbarew Klebestelle zur Verbindung mit der Vorderwand vorgesehen ist.The opening of the closure device is particularly simple if, according to the invention, a grip tab is formed on the wall section that overlaps the front wall, in the area of which a separable adhesive point is provided for connection to the front wall.

Dabei hat es sich als besonders günstig erwiesen, wenn gemäß der Erfindung in der Vorderwand und/oder in der Grifflasche eine im wesentlichen kreisförmige oder ovale Ritzlinie vorgesehen ist, innerhalb welcher die Klebeverbindung vorliegt.It has proven to be particularly advantageous if, according to the invention, an essentially circular or oval scoring line is provided in the front wall and / or in the grip tab, within which the adhesive connection is present.

Beim Auftrennen erfolgt innerhalb dieser Ritzlinie eine Materialspaltung, die ein Auftrennen der eigentlichen Klebeverbindung erübrigt und damit besonders einfach zu vollziehen ist.When cutting, material splitting takes place within this scoring line, which eliminates the need to separate the actual adhesive connection and is therefore particularly easy to carry out.

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

Fig. 4
a packaging erected from the blank according to FIG. 3 in a diagrammatic representation.

Mit 1 ist in Fig.1 ein Kartonzuschnitt bezeichnet, der eine Rückwand 2, eine Vorderwand 3 sowie zwei Seitenwände 4 und 5 aufweist. Diese Wände sind über Faltlinien 6, 7 und 8 miteinander verbunden. An der Vorderwand 3 ist über eine weitere Faltlinie 9 ein Materialstreifen 10 angeformt, der mit der Seitenwand 5 in einer Längsnaht verbunden wird. An der Rückwand 2, der Vorderwand 3, den beiden Seitenwänden 4 und 5 sowie an dem Materialstreifen 10 sind Lappen 11 bis 15 angelenkt, die zur Bildung des Verpackungsbodens mit einander verbunden werden können.
Am oberen Ende der Rückwand 2 ist über eine Faltlinie 16 eine Verschlußklappe 17 angelenkt, die aus einer Deckfläche 18, zwei Seitenwandstücken 19 und 20, einem Vorderwandstück 21 sowie zwei Verbindungslappen 22,23 besteht.
Die Vorderwand 3 trägt - ebenfalls über die Faltlinie 16 angelenkt - eine Klappe 24, an der über eine weitere Faltlinie 25 ein Lappen 26 angeformt ist. Sowohl die Klappe 24 als auch der daran angeformte Lappen 26 sind durch zwei parallel zu den seitlichen Begrenzungskanten verlaufende Ritzlinien 27 und 28 unterteilt.
Innerhalb der durch die Ritzlinien 27 und 28 abgeteilten Abschnitte des Lappens 26 sind - mit 29 und 30 bezeichnet - zwei Klebestellen vorgesehen, an denen der Lappen mit der Innenseite der Deckfläche 18 der Verschlußklappe 17 verbunden wird.
1 in FIG. 1 denotes a cardboard blank which has a rear wall 2, a front wall 3 and two side walls 4 and 5. These walls are connected to one another via fold lines 6, 7 and 8. A strip of material 10 is formed on the front wall 3 via a further fold line 9 and is connected to the side wall 5 in a longitudinal seam. On the rear wall 2, the front wall 3, the two side walls 4 and 5 and on the material strip 10, tabs 11 to 15 are articulated, which can be connected to one another to form the packaging base.
At the upper end of the rear wall 2, a closing flap 17 is articulated via a folding line 16, which consists of a top surface 18, two side wall pieces 19 and 20, a front wall piece 21 and two connecting flaps 22, 23.
The front wall 3 carries - also articulated via the folding line 16 - a flap 24 on which a flap 26 is formed via a further folding line 25. Both the flap 24 and the tab 26 formed thereon are divided by two scoring lines 27 and 28 running parallel to the lateral boundary edges.
Within the sections of the flap 26 which are divided by the scoring lines 27 and 28, 29 and 30 are provided with two adhesive points at which the flap is connected to the inside of the cover surface 18 of the closure flap 17.

Eine weitere Klebestelle ist innerhalb einer kreisförmigen Ritzlinie 31 vorgesehen, die sich im oberen Abschnitt der Vorderwand 3 befindet und an welcher das Vorderwandstück 21 der Verschlußklappe 17 innerhalb einer dort angeformten Grifflasche 32 mit der Vorderwand verklebt wird.Another gluing point is provided within a circular scoring line 31, which is located in the upper section of the front wall 3 and to which the front wall piece 21 of the closure flap 17 is glued to the front wall within a grip tab 32 formed there.

In Fig.2 ist eine aufgerichtete, gefüllte und verschlossene Verpackung dargestellt, bei der die Verschlußklappe 17 wieder hochgeklappt wurde. Dazu wurde die Grifflasche 32 erfaßt und das Kartonmaterial innerhalb der kreisförmigen Ritzlinie 31 aufgespalten, so daß die Verschlußklappe hochgeklappt werden konnte.2 shows an erected, filled and closed package in which the closure flap 17 has been folded up again. For this purpose, the grip tab 32 was grasped and the cardboard material was split within the circular scoring line 31, so that the closure flap could be folded up.

Zum weiteren Öffnen der Verpackung wird nun der Lappen 26 erfaßt und die beiden Ritzlinien 27 und 28 aufgetrennt, so daß sich auch die Klappe 24 hochklappen läßt.To open the packaging further, the tab 26 is now grasped and the two scoring lines 27 and 28 are separated so that the flap 24 can also be folded up.

Es ist nun möglich, diese Klappe 24 entlang der Faltlinie 16 völlig herauszutrennen, um ein besonders einfaches Entnehmen des Füllgutes zu erreichen. Andererseits kann aber auch diese Klappe 24 an der Verpackung verbleiben, um insbesondere bei feuchtigkeitsempfindlichen Füllgütern während der weiteren Lagerzeit eine verbesserte Abdichtung zu erreichen. Dazu können die beiden Ritzlinien 27 und 28 doppelspurig ausgebildet sein, das heißt eine Spur ist von oben und die andere Spur in geringem Abstand davon von unten eingebracht, so daß auch nach dem Auftrennen der Ritzlinien eine Auflagefläche für die Klappe 24 verbleibt.It is now possible to completely separate this flap 24 along the fold line 16 in order to achieve a particularly simple removal of the filling material. On the other hand, this flap 24 can also remain on the packaging in order to achieve an improved seal, in particular in the case of moisture-sensitive filling goods, during the further storage period. For this purpose, the two scoring lines 27 and 28 can be double-track, that is, one track is introduced from above and the other track at a short distance therefrom from below, so that a contact surface for the flap 24 remains even after the scoring lines have been separated.

Beim zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig.3 ist mit 100 ein Kartonzuschnitt bezeichnet, der eine Rückwand 2, eine Vorderwand 3 sowie zwei Seitenwände 4 und 5 aufweist. Diese Wände sind über Faltlinien 6, 7 und 8 miteinander verbunden. An der Vorderwand 3 ist über eine weitere Faltlinie 9 ein Materialstreifen 10 angeformt, der mit der Seitenwand 4 in einer Längsnaht verbunden wird. An der Rückwand 2, der Vorderwand 3, den beiden Seitenwänden 4 und 5 sowie an dem Materialstreifen 10 sind Lappen 11 bis 15 angelenkt, die zur Bildung des Verpackungsbodens miteinander verbunden werden können.In the second exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3, 100 denotes a cardboard blank which has a rear wall 2, a front wall 3 and two side walls 4 and 5. These walls are connected to one another via fold lines 6, 7 and 8. A strip of material 10 is formed on the front wall 3 via a further fold line 9 and is connected to the side wall 4 in a longitudinal seam. On the rear wall 2, the front wall 3, the two side walls 4 and 5 and on the material strip 10, tabs 11 to 15 are articulated, which can be connected to form the packaging base.

Am oberen Ende der Rückwand 2 ist über eine Faltlinie 16 eine Verschlußklappe 17 angelenkt, die aus einer Deckfläche 18, zwei Seitenwandstücken 19 und 20, einem Vorderwandstück 21 sowie zwei Verbindungslappen 22,23 besteht.At the upper end of the rear wall 2, a closing flap 17 is articulated via a folding line 16, which consists of a top surface 18, two side wall pieces 19 and 20, a front wall piece 21 and two connecting flaps 22, 23.

Die Vorderwand 3 trägt - ebenfalls über die Faltlinie 16 angelenkt - eine Klappe 124, an der über eine weitere Faltlinie 25 ein Lappen 126 angeformt ist. Diese Faltlinie 25 ist von der Unterseite her als Ritzlinie ausgebildet, welche durch vier Einprägungen 125 von der Obseite her unterbrochen ist. Im Bereich der Klappe 124 ist die Faltlinie 16 mit einer Perforation 116 versehen, die ein Abtrennen der Klappe von der Vorderwand erleichtert. Sowohl die Klappe 124 als auch der daran angeformte Lappen 126 weisen zwei Ritzlinien 127 und 128 auf, die zum Aufreißen dienen und im Bereich der Klappe 124 doppelspurig - d.h. je eine Ritzung von oben und von unten - ausgebildet sind. Diese Ritzlinien 127 und 128 verlaufen auf einem Großteil ihrer Länge parallel zu den Außenkanten der Klappe 124 und gehen zum Lappen 126 hin schräg nach außen, um sich dann wieder parallel zu den Außenkanten zu erstrecken.The front wall 3 carries - also articulated via the fold line 16 - a flap 124, on which a tab 126 is formed via a further fold line 25. This fold line 25 is formed from the underside as a scratch line, which is interrupted by four impressions 125 from the top. In the area of the flap 124, the fold line 16 is provided with a perforation 116, which makes it easier to separate the flap from the front wall. Both the flap 124 and the flap 126 formed thereon have two scoring lines 127 and 128, which are used for tearing open and are double-lane in the area of the flap 124, ie one scoring each from above and from below. These scoring lines 127 and 128 run parallel to the outer edges of the flap 124 over a large part of their length and go obliquely outwards towards the flap 126, in order then to extend again parallel to the outer edges.

In Fig.4 ist eine aufgerichtete, gefüllte und teilweise verschlossene Verpackung dargestellt, bei der die Verschlußklappe 17 noch hochgestellt ist.4 shows an erected, filled and partially closed package, in which the closure flap 17 is still raised.

Dabei ist der Verschluß der Deckseite sichtbar, bei dem zuerst die Klappe 124 eingefaltet und mit ihrem Lappen 126 an die Deckfläche 18 der Verschlußklappe 17 angelegt wurde. Die beiden Eckabschnitte 140,141 wurden dabei an die Deckfläche 18 angelegt und können dort angeklebt sein. Anschließend wurden die beiden an den Seitenwänden 4 und 5 angelenkten streifenförmigen Lappen 142 und 143 auf die Klappe 124 aufgefaltet und mit dieser verklebt. Die freien Außenkanten dieser beiden Lappen 142,143 verlaufen dabei parallel und mit sehr geringem Abstand von den Ritzlinien 127,128, so daß die Kanten als Aufreißhilfe dienen.The closure of the cover side is visible, in which the flap 124 was first folded in and its tab 126 was applied to the cover surface 18 of the closure flap 17. The two corner sections 140, 141 were placed on the top surface 18 and can be glued there. The two strip-shaped tabs 142 and 143 hinged to the side walls 4 and 5 were then unfolded onto the flap 124 and glued to it. The free outer edges of these two flaps 142, 143 run parallel and at a very short distance from the scoring lines 127, 128, so that the edges serve as a tear-open aid.

Beim Aufsetzen der Verschlußkappe 17 wird deren Abschnitt 121 mit dem durch eine Ritzlinie 144 markierten Abschnitt 145 in der Vorderwand verklebt, wodurch die Verschlußklappe einen sicheren Halt erfährt.When the closure cap 17 is put on, its section 121 is glued to the section 145 marked by a scribe line 144 in the front wall, as a result of which the closure flap is held securely.

Zum Öffnen der Verpackung wird zuerst diese Klebeverbindung gelöst, was durch Materialspaltung innerhalb der Ritzlinie 144 geschieht und die Verschlußklappe in die dargestellte Stellung gebracht. Dann wird die Klappe 124 am hinteren Ende erfaßt und entlang der Ritzlinien 127 und 128 aufgetrennt und anschließend kann sie entlang der Perforation 116 völlig herausgelöst werden. Die verbleibenden Randstreifen der Klappe 124 und die damit verklebten Lappen 142 und 143 verleihen der Verpackung auch nach dem Öffnen eine gute Formstabilität.To open the packaging, this adhesive connection is first released, which is done by splitting material within the scribe line 144 and the closure flap in the shown Positioned. Then the flap 124 is grasped at the rear end and separated along the scoring lines 127 and 128 and then it can be completely detached along the perforation 116. The remaining edge strips of the flap 124 and the flaps 142 and 143 glued to them give the packaging good dimensional stability even after opening.
