Definitions

  • the invention relates to a folding box, in particular for packaging hygiene products, such as (tissue) facial tissues and the like, with a removal opening provided in a top wall and closed by a tear-open element and a film arranged on the inside of the top wall and at least partially spanning the removal opening .
  • Folding boxes of this type are known, and are used in particular for storing cosmetic tissues, such as make-up removing tissues, handkerchiefs and the like, and have a pre-punched or perforated removal opening which is reduced in size by an internal film so that the cosmetic tissues do not come into contact with the edge of the removal opening when removed come. This is to prevent the cellulose fibers from getting caught on the edge edge that is relatively rough due to the tearing of the perforation, or even tearing off the facial tissues. Because the film glued to the inside has a smaller opening than the removal opening, it protrudes slightly beyond the edge of the removal opening and forms a soft and flexible wiping edge which keeps the facial tissues away from the rough edge of the removal opening when removed from the box . Since the film is made of polyethylene, the problem arises when disposing of the box that the box cannot be assigned to the paper waste since it is not of the same type due to the plastic film.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of providing an improved box, in particular for storing cosmetic tissues, the disposal of which is less difficult.
  • the film consists of the material of the folding box blank.
  • the folding box blank is preferably made of cardboard and the film is made of paper.
  • a preferred embodiment provides that the tear-open element is connected to the edge of the removal opening via a scoring or perforation. To open the carton, all you have to do is break through the perforation or tear the carton blank along the scoring. The tear-open element can then be removed from the removal opening and the facial tissues in the folding box are accessible and can be removed from the box.
  • the scoring or perforation preferably penetrates only part of the thickness of the folding box blank. This has the advantage that when the removal opening is torn open, i.e. When removing the tear-open element, there are no sharp-edged opening edges, since only a part of the folding box cut is cut through the perforation or scoring and the other part is torn irregularly when the tear-off element is removed. However, this irregular severing creates a much softer edge than the opening edge created by scoring or perforation, on which the facial tissues can slide without being damaged during removal.
  • a further scratching or perforation which at least partially corresponds to the first scoring or perforation, is also provided, which also only partially the folding box blank penetrates.
  • a preferred embodiment provides that the further scoring or perforation is arranged offset from the first scoring or perforation.
  • a simple opening of the box is achieved in that the tear-open element has handle openings. These grip openings allow the tear-open element to be gripped effortlessly, which can then be torn out of the removal opening. A more or less extensive pressing of a box element closing the removal opening into the inside of the box, which could possibly damage the contents of the box, can thus be omitted.
  • the film is preferably arranged only in the region of the handle openings on the inside of the top wall. The film is now no longer used to defuse the edge of the opening, but to cover the handle openings, so that the contents of the package are not contaminated by dirt entering through the handle openings.
  • the grip openings are preferably formed by cutouts on the tear-open element.
  • the tear-open element can be gripped via these cutouts and torn out of the removal opening.
  • the handle openings are advantageously dimensioned so that they can be easily reached with one or two fingers and the tear element can be gripped.
  • the removal opening is essentially slit-shaped and has an enlarged section in which at least one handle opening is provided.
  • the handle opening is therefore not in the slit-shaped removal opening, through which the folding box of the package contents is removed, but in a separate section which is expanded in relation to the slit-shaped removal opening, so that there is sufficient space for arranging the handle opening.
  • the handle opening can therefore be dimensioned sufficiently large without the removal of the package contents being adversely affected thereby, or the dimension of the slot-shaped removal opening having to be changed.
  • a special embodiment provides that the expanded section is arranged approximately in the middle of the removal opening.
  • the slit-shaped ones extend Sections of the discharge opening on both sides of the expanded section.
  • the removal opening opens into the expanded section on one side.
  • the design of the removal opening with the expanded section is accordingly individually adaptable to special requirements, so that the folding box is not limited to special applications.
  • the film is preferably perforated in the region of the removal opening. This facilitates the final opening of the removal opening by tearing out a section of the film which essentially corresponds to the removal opening.
  • the perforation controls the course of the tear in the film, so that the corresponding section is completely torn out and the remaining pieces of the film which hinder the removal of the facial tissue remain in the removal opening.
  • the perforation can be designed in such a way that the part of the film which is still visible through the removal opening, in particular in the case of a colored design, gives an aesthetically pleasing impression.
  • this film section is easily removed, which, after opening the folding box, hangs on the tear-off element and can be disposed of at the same time.
  • the removal opening is thus opened in a single operation, so that it is not necessary to first separate the tear-open element and then the film spanning the removal opening or a section of this film.
  • the removal of the cosmetic tissues contained in the folding box is simplified in that the section of the film delimited by the perforation is connected to the uppermost cosmetic tissue. If this section is separated from the removal opening, the first sheet is at least partially pulled out of the interior of the box with this section and can finally be easily gripped for complete removal.
  • the section of the film delimited by the perforation is smaller than and lies within the removal opening. As already known from the prior art, this results in a lip-like section which gently deflects the facial tissues to be pulled out of the box contents.
  • the section delimited by the perforation is larger than the removal opening, the removal opening now being located above this section.
  • the tear-off edge of the film is now covered by the edge of the removal opening and is therefore not visible from the outside.
  • the hidden attachment of the perforation largely prevents dust from entering the inside of the box.
  • the folding box blank is made of cardboard and the film is made of paper. This makes disposal of the packaging much easier.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 essentially show a folding box blank 1, FIGS. 1 and 2 showing the folding box blank 1 in a top view of its upper side, which later forms the outside of the box, and FIGS. 3 and 4 show the folding box blank 1 in a top view of its later one Show the underside of the inside of the folding box.
  • the folding box blank 1 consists of a first longitudinal side wall 2, which is connected to a top wall 4 via a fold 3.
  • This cover wall 4 is in turn connected to a second longitudinal side wall 6 via a fold 5 and to a bottom wall 8 via a further fold 7.
  • the two longitudinal side walls 2 and 6 have wrapping tabs 12 to 15, which are connected to the front edges of the longitudinal side walls 2 and 6 via folds 16 to 19.
  • the bottom wall 8 has at its front edges adhesive tabs 20 and 21 which are articulated via folds 22 and 23.
  • the top wall 4 is provided with folds 24 and 25, each with a transverse side wall 26 and 27, which are glued to the adhesive tabs 20 and 21, which are provided with a suitable adhesive.
  • the erected folding box blank 1 forms an essentially cuboid folding box, the top wall 4 forming the top side and the bottom wall 8 forming the bottom of the folding box.
  • the top of the folding box is provided with a removal opening 28 through which the contents of the box can be accessed.
  • the removal opening 28 is thus arranged in the top wall 4, it being possible for the shape of the removal opening 28 to be tailored individually to the special requirements of the folding box, the box contents or to aesthetic considerations.
  • the removal opening 28 is formed symmetrically, two essentially slit-shaped opening sections 29 and 30 being provided in the top wall 4, which are connected on both sides to an enlarged section 31 which is centrally located in the middle of the top wall 4 is arranged.
  • the removal opening 28 i.e. in the opening sections 29 and 30 and partially in the expanded section 31 there is a tear-open element 32 which completely fills the opening sections 29 and 30 and at least partially fills the expanded section 31.
  • the tear-open element 32 has a contour which essentially corresponds to the shape of the removal opening 28.
  • the tear-open element 32 does not extend to its edge in two places, but rather forms two grip openings 33 and 34, via which the inside of the box can be reached and the tear-open element 32 can be gripped under, so that the tear-open element 32 can be removed from the removal opening 28 can be torn out.
  • the tear-open element 32 To make it easier to tear open the tear-open element 32, there is a score or perforation 35 which extends along the tear-open element 32 lying in the removal opening 28, with the exception of the handle openings 33 and 34.
  • the tear-open element 32 is easily gripped under by large-sized grip openings 33 and 34, which are advantageously approximately lenticular.
  • the removal opening 28 is indeed symmetrical in the top wall 4, but the removal opening 28 itself is asymmetrical. It essentially consists of the expanded section 31 and the continuation on one side Opening section 30.
  • the tear-open element 32 is formed, which is now connected to the edge of the removal opening 28 at the edge opposite the opening section 30 by means of scoring or perforation 36.
  • the transition from the enlarged section 31 into the opening section 29 is formed in the form of a corner 37 in this embodiment, whereas the transition in the embodiment according to FIG. 1 is implemented in the form of a rounding 38.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show a top view of the back of the folding box blank 1.
  • a film 39 can be seen, which is glued to the back of the top wall 4.
  • the film 39 has a size so that it covers the enlarged section 31 in such a way that it is glued to the rear of the top wall 4 with an overlapping edge 40.
  • the film 39 has a perforation 41 which runs at a distance around the edge 42 of the expanded section 31 lying behind the film 39. The perforation 41 is therefore set back behind the edge 42.
  • the perforation 41 finally runs into two mutually parallel sections 43 and 44, these sections 43 and 44 being aligned with the scoring or perforation 35 with the opening section 30.
  • the scoring or perforation 35 is located on the front of the top wall 4 and only partially extends through the top wall 4, as will be explained in more detail later in FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • the film 39 covers both the enlarged section 31 and the opening section 30 and is also glued to the rear of the top wall 4 at least with its peripheral edge.
  • the film 39 shown in FIG. 4 likewise has a perforation 41, which, however, runs in the region of the handle openings 33 and 34 of the removal opening 28 behind the film 39, outside the removal opening 28, and on which the rounded portion 38 faces the opening section 30 having the long side and on the long side facing away from the opening section 30 and having the perforation 36 runs within these long sides.
  • the scoring or perforation 45 likewise extends parallel to the scoring or perforation 35 and, at the end of the opening section 30, does not run into the scoring or perforation 35 as in FIG.
  • FIG. 5 shows the section VV of FIG. 1 in an enlarged representation, the position of the scratches or perforations 35 or 45 in the top wall 4 and the scratching or perforation 41 in the film 39 being shown in particular.
  • the top of the top wall 4 is provided with a score 35, which only partially, for example 50%, penetrates the thickness of the top wall 4.
  • the underside of the top wall 4 is provided with the two scoring 45, which also penetrates the top wall 4 only over part of its thickness, for example 50%.
  • the underside of the top wall 4 points accordingly 4, the film 39, which spans the opening section 29 or the tear-open element 32 located in this opening section 29.
  • the perforation 41 of the film 39 is located at a distance from the scratches 35 and 45 and is arranged in the film 39 such that it is not visible when the tear-open element 32 is seen from the top of the top wall 4 when the folding box blank 1 is viewed, since it is opposite the two scratches 35 and 45 is set back. Finally, the tear-open element 32 is connected to the section 43 located between the two perforations 41 via an adhesive point 46.
  • Fig. 6 shows a section corresponding to Fig. 5 of another embodiment, in which case the two scratches 35 are arranged within the two scratches 45, i.e. that the tear element 32 is narrower on its upper side than on its underside. Furthermore, the film 39 has a perforation 41 which lies within the two scratches 35.
  • the section 43 which is also torn out when the tear-off element 32 is torn out, since it is connected to the tear-off element 32 via the adhesive point 46, is narrower than the width of the top of the tear-off element 32.
  • the opening of the folding box is described in the following:
  • the erected and closed folding box blank 1 is set up with the facial tissues arranged in such a way that the top wall 4 forms the top of the box.
  • two fingers are inserted into the grip openings 33 and 34, the film 39 spanning the grip openings 33 and 34 tearing along their perforations 41 in the region of these openings 33 and 34.
  • the tear-open element 32 is then torn out of the removal opening 28, in which it is fastened via the scratches or perforations 35 and 45, respectively.
  • the top wall 4 tears between the two inner ends of the two incisions or perforations 35 and 45, whereby a crack 47 (FIGS. 5 and 6) arises.
  • the film 39 continues to tear along its perforation 41 until section 43 is finally torn out of the film 39.
  • the tear-open element 32 detached from the removal opening 28 with the section 43 adhering to it via the adhesive point 46 is removed from the box, the contents of which are now accessible via the removal opening 28.
  • the offset score 35 and 45 and the crack 47 located between the two scores 35 and 45 form a relatively elastic lip 48 which forms the edge of the removal opening 28 and projects into the opening 28 itself.
  • a cosmetic tissue is now removed from the inside of the box, it pulls along lip 48 when it is pulled out of the box and bends it in the removal direction.
  • the lip 48 thus does not provide any appreciable resistance to the cosmetic tissue to be removed, so that the tissue is not damaged when it is pulled out of the box from the edge of the removal opening 28.
  • the film 39 spanning the removal opening 28 can be designed in such a way and its perforation 41 can be arranged in such a way that, after the section 43 has been torn out, it forms a lip 49 on both sides, along which the cosmetic tissue brushes as it is pulled out.
  • This embodiment also allows aesthetic considerations to be taken into account because now the film 39 can be seen partially from the outside through the removal opening 28. If the film 39 or its edge is now accentuated in color in the region of the removal opening 28, then aesthetically appealing design features can be created.
  • a simple removal of the first facial tissue lying on top from the inside of the box is facilitated in that the section 43 adheres to the uppermost facial tissue, so that when the tear-open element 32, which is connected to the section 43 via the adhesive point 46, the first and uppermost tissue is removed is at least partially pulled out of the packaging.
  • the other wipes inevitably follow, as is already known for such packaging.
