Abstract

PCT No. PCT/EP89/01496 Sec. 371 Date May 28, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date May 28, 1992 PCT Filed Dec. 6, 1989 PCT Pub. No. WO90/07455 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 12, 1990.A packaging container comprises a one-piece blank of cardboard or the like. The container has side walls which are joined to a base. The base comprises two main triangular panels which rise from a common diagonal fold, and each main triangle panel is connected via an intermediate triangular panel to the edges of the base. Longitudinal edge strips disposed on opposite longitudinal edges of the container body are secured to each other to close the sides of the container.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verpackungsbehälter aus einem einteiligen Zuschnitt aus im wesentlichen starrem, blattförmigem Material, insbesondere Pappe oder Karton, mit einem Behälterrumpf, der aus an Längskanten mittels aufeinanderliegenden Längsrandstreifen miteinander verbundenen Seitenwänden besteht, die mit einem gemeinsamen Behälterboden an Bodenrandkanten verbunden sind, wobei die den Behälterboden bildenden Zuschnitteile im mittleren Bereich des Zuschnitts liegen.The invention relates to a packaging container made of a one-piece blank of essentially rigid, sheet-like material, in particular cardboard or cardboard, with a container body which consists of side walls connected to one another on longitudinal edges by means of longitudinal edge strips lying one on top of the other, which are connected to a common container bottom at edge edges of the base, the the blank parts forming the container bottom are in the central region of the blank.

Verpackungsbehälter dieses grundsätzlichen Aufbaus sind in unterschiedlichen Ausführungsformen bekannt, beispielsweise als Faltschachtel, deren Behälterboden entweder von einem Verschluß mit Einstecklaschen oder von miteinander verklebten Verschlußklappen gebildet wird. Obwohl Faltschachteln für sehr weite Einsatzbereiche verwendbar sind, können Sie beispielsweise nicht als dichte, an der Innenseite beschichtete Behältnisse für Flüssigkeiten eingesetzt werden.Packaging containers of this basic construction are known in different embodiments, for example as a folding box, the container base of which is formed either by a closure with insertion tabs or by closure flaps glued together. Although folding boxes can be used for very wide areas of application, they cannot be used as sealed, liquid-coated containers on the inside, for example.

Hierfür sind aus Kunststoff-Metall-Verbundfolien bestehende Standbeutel bekannt, die unter Bildung eines Behälterbodens so gefaltet sind, daß sie sich nur mit ihrer beschichteten Innenseite berühren und deshalb durch eine Randversiegelung dicht verschlossen werden können. Die Standfestigkeit dieser Folienstandbeutel ist wegen der Flexibilität der verwendeten Verbundfolien jedoch gering.Stand-up pouches consisting of plastic-metal composite foils are known for this purpose, which are folded to form a container bottom in such a way that they only touch with their coated inside and can therefore be sealed tightly by an edge seal. The stability of these stand-up pouches is low due to the flexibility of the composite foils used.

Die Verwendung von Folienstandbeuteln ist deshalb auf die Aufnahme von Flüssigkeiten beschränkt.The use of plastic stand-up pouches is therefore restricted to the absorption of liquids.

Bei einem bekannten Verpackungsbehälter (EP-A 16 848) wird der im Grundriß viereckige Behälterboden, der zugleich die Standfläche für den Verpackungsbehälter bildet, als Behälterverschluß ausgeführt, vorzugsweise als herkömmlicher Faltschachtel-Stecklaschenverschluß. Die Stabilität dieses bekannten Verpackungsbehälters wird dabei im wesentlichen durch die Festigkeit des den Behälterboden bildenden Verschlusses bestimmt. Obwohl die Formsteifigkeit des sich nach oben verjüngenden Behälterrumpfes sehr hoch ist und die Verwendung von verhältnismäßig dünnem Material erlauben würde, erfordert der Aufbau des Verschlusses am Behälterboden eine gewisse Mindestdicke und Steifigkeit des verwendeten Materials. Außerdem ist dieser bekannte Verpackungsbehälter wegen seines Bodenverschlusses nur nach Art einer Faltschachtel verwendbar, d.h. nicht als dicht verschweißter Verpackungsbehälter für Flüssigkeiten oder rieselfähiges Gut.In the case of a known packaging container (EP-A 16 848), the container base, which is square in plan and which also forms the base for the packaging container, is designed as a container closure, preferably as a conventional folding box plug-in closure. The stability of this known packaging container is essentially determined by the strength of the closure forming the container base. Although the stiffness of the upwardly tapering container body is very high and would allow the use of relatively thin material, the construction of the closure on the container base requires a certain minimum thickness and rigidity of the material used. In addition, because of its bottom closure, this known packaging container can only be used in the manner of a folding box, i.e. not as a tightly welded packaging container for liquids or free-flowing goods.

Ein bekannter Verpackungsbehälter der eingangs genannten Gattung (BE-A-534 852) weist einen Behälterboden mit einem schmalen, länglichen , sechseckigen Grundriß und zwei verhältnismäßig breite, einander gegenüberliegende Seitenwände auf. Sein Behälterboden hat eine obenliegende Faltkante, die sich über die ganze Länge des Behälterbodens erstreckt und von der zwei Bodenflächen dachartig zu den Bodenrandkanten abfallen. Ein solcher Behälterboden ist nur von geringer Stabilität. Wenn der Verpackungsbehälter aus verhältnismäßig dünnem Material ausgeführt wird, was allgemein aus Gründen der Materialersparnis angestrebt wird, dann besteht die Gefahr, daß sich der dachförmige Behälterboden nach unten durchdrückt. Die beiden Bodenrandkanten werden dann nach außen weggedrückt, zumal sie auch durch die verhältnismäßig großen Seitenflächen des Verpackungsbehälters keine Versteifung erfahren.A known packaging container of the type mentioned at the beginning (BE-A-534 852) has a container base with a narrow, elongated, hexagonal layout and two relatively wide, opposite side walls. Its container base has an overhead folding edge which extends over the entire length of the container base and from which two base surfaces fall like a roof to the edge of the base edge. Such a container bottom is of little stability. If the packaging container is made of relatively thin material, which is generally sought for reasons of material savings, then there is Danger of the roof-shaped container bottom pushing down. The two bottom edge edges are then pushed outwards, especially since they do not experience any stiffening due to the relatively large side surfaces of the packaging container.

Ein anderer bekannter Verpackungsbehälter (US-A-3 317 118, Fig. 6) der aus einem einteiligen Zuschnitt besteht, weist an seinen beiden Enden jeweils einen im Grundriß viereckigen Behälterboden auf, der jeweils aus vier Bodendreiecken besteht. Jeweils zwei Bodendreiecke, die durch eine gemeinsame Faltkante voneinander getrennt sind, steigen von einer in der Bodengrundfläche liegenden Diagonalfaltkante zu zwei einander diametral gegenüberliegenden Längskanten an. Die Faltkante, die jeweils die beiden benachbarten Bodendreiecke trennt, ist bei diesem bekannten Verpackungsbehälter erforderlich, um den Behälter im fertig geklebten Zustand flachliegend zu stapeln und zu transportieren. Im aufgerichteten Zustand verursacht diese Faltkante eine Schwächung der Bodenkonstruktion.Another known packaging container (US-A-3 317 118, Fig. 6), which consists of a one-piece blank, has at both ends of a square container bottom in plan, each consisting of four bottom triangles. In each case two floor triangles, which are separated from each other by a common folding edge, rise from a diagonal folding edge lying in the base area to two diametrically opposite longitudinal edges. The folding edge, which separates the two adjacent floor triangles, is required in this known packaging container in order to stack and transport the container lying flat in the finished, glued state. When erected, this folded edge weakens the floor structure.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, einen Verpackungsbehälter der eingangs genannten Gattung so auszugestalten, daß er bei einfachem Aufbau und einfacher Verarbeitungsmöglichkeit für sehr unterschiedliche Anwendungsfälle, insbesondere als Behälter für Flüssigkeiten oder rieselfähiges Gut einsetzbar ist. Dieser Verpackungsbehälter soll die vorteilhaften Eigenschaften einer Faltschachtel mit denen eines Standbeutels verbinden, ohne deren jeweilige bauartbedingte Nachteile aufzuweisen. Insbesondere soll der Verpackungsbehälter im Bodenbereich auch bei der Verwendung von verhältnismäßig dünnem Material eine hohe Steifigkeit aufweisen.The object of the invention is therefore to design a packaging container of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that it can be used for very different applications, in particular as a container for liquids or free-flowing material, with a simple structure and simple processing options. This packaging container is intended to combine the advantageous properties of a folding box with those of a stand-up pouch without having their respective design-related disadvantages. In particular, the packaging container should also be in the bottom area Use of relatively thin material have high rigidity.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Behälterboden im Grundriß viereckig ist und aus zwei Bodendreiecken besteht, die von einer in der Bodengrundfläche liegenden Diagonalfaltkante zu zwei einander diametral gegenüberliegenen Längskanten ansteigen und mit den Bodenrandkanten über jeweils ein Zwischendreieck verbunden sind, das jeweils an der Innenseite einer Seitenwand anliegt, und daß im Behälterinneren ein Kunststoffbeutel, vorzugsweise aus einem Folien-Schlauchabschnitt, aufgenommen ist.This object is achieved in that the container floor is square in plan and consists of two floor triangles, which rise from a diagonal folding edge lying in the floor base to two diametrically opposed longitudinal edges and are connected to the bottom edge edges via an intermediate triangle, each connected to the Bears against the inside of a side wall, and that a plastic bag, preferably made of a film tube section, is received in the interior of the container.

Durch den erfindungsgemäßen Bodenaufbau, der aus dem mittleren Teil des einteiligen, keinerlei Einschnitte aufweisenden Zuschnitts besteht, wird ein in sich sehr formsteifer Behälterboden geschaffen, der damit auch dem Behälterrumpf und somit dem gesamten Verpackungsbehälter eine erhöhte Steifigkeit gibt. Deshalb kann vergleichsweise dünnes Material verwendet werden. Diese Steifigkeit des Behälterbodens reicht auch aus, um die bei Verwendung eines Kunststoff-Innenbeutels (d.h. als kartongestützte Weichverpackung) durch hohen Flüssigkeits-Innendruck auftretenden erheblichen Druckbelastungen des Bodens aufzunehmen.The bottom structure according to the invention, which consists of the central part of the one-piece blank, which has no incisions, creates a container base which is inherently very rigid and which therefore also gives the container body and thus the entire packaging container increased rigidity. Therefore comparatively thin material can be used. This rigidity of the container base is also sufficient to absorb the considerable pressure loads on the base which occur when using a plastic inner bag (i.e. as a cardboard-supported soft packaging) due to the high liquid internal pressure.

Diese besondere Formsteifigkeit erhält den Behälterboden einerseits dadurch, daß er aus miteinander faltbar verbundenen Dreiecken besteht, die räumlich angeordnet sind und nicht durch Faltlinien geschwächt sind, und zum anderen dadurch, daß die Längsrandstreifen der Seitenwände insbesondere auch im Bodenbereich aufeinanderliegen und miteinander verbunden sind, und zwar vorzugsweise auch mit an den Zwischendreiecken anschließenden Randstreifen, wie dies gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Erfindungsgedankens vorgesehen ist.This particular stiffness of the container bottom is given on the one hand by the fact that it consists of triangles which are foldably connected to one another, which are arranged spatially and are not weakened by fold lines, and on the other hand by the fact that the longitudinal edge strips of the side walls, in particular also in the bottom area lie on one another and are connected to one another, and preferably also with edge strips adjoining the intermediate triangles, as is provided in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the inventive concept.

Ein wesentlicher Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Verpackungsbehälters ist dadurch begründet, daß sich an allen Verbindungsstellen nur Innenseiten des Verpackungsmaterials berühren, wobei es sich um eine flächige Berührung von Randstreifen handelt. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, den Zuschnitt mit einer einseitigen, heißsiegelfähigen Beschichtung zu versehen, die im Bereich der aufeinanderliegenden Randstreifen eine flüssigkeitsdichte Versiegelung ermöglicht. Die so geschaffene Flüssigkeitsverpackung hat im Gegensatz zu Folienstandbeuteln eine hohe Formsteifigkeit und ein gutes Stehvermögen, so daß derartige Flüssigkeitsverpackungen als wesentlich größere Verpackungseinheiten ausgeführt werden können, als dies bei Folienstandbeuteln der Fall ist.A major advantage of the packaging container according to the invention is due to the fact that only the inside of the packaging material touches at all connection points, which is a flat contact of edge strips. In this way it is possible to provide the blank with a one-sided, heat-sealable coating which enables a liquid-tight seal in the region of the edge strips lying one on top of the other. In contrast to foil stand-up pouches, the liquid packaging thus created has a high level of dimensional stability and good stamina, so that such liquid packagings can be designed as much larger packaging units than is the case with foil stand-up pouches.

Unter Beibehaltung des grundsätzlichen Aufbaus des Behälterbodens können auch andere Formen des Behälterrumpfes, beispielsweise quaderförmig mit rechteckiger, quadratischer, rautenförmiger oder sonstiger viereckiger Grundfläche verwendet werden, wobei der obere Behälterabschluß als herkömmlicher Stecklaschenverschluß oder als aus zwei Dreiecken bestehender, versiegelter Verschluß ausgeführt sein kann.While maintaining the basic structure of the container bottom, other forms of the container body, for example cuboid with a rectangular, square, diamond-shaped or other square base, can be used, the upper container closure being designed as a conventional plug-in closure or as a seal consisting of two triangles.

In der sich nach oben verjüngenden Ausführungsform ist der erfindungsgemäße Verpackungsbehälter vor allem auch als Ausgießbehälter für Flüssigkeiten oder Schüttgut geeignet; die Entnahme kann durch einen besonderen Verschluß oder durch Abschneiden einer oberen Behälterecke erfolgen. In ähnlicher Weise kann der Verpackungsbehälter als eine Tube für pastöses Füllgut verwendet werden, das durch diesen Verschluß oder die abgeschnittene Ecke ausgepresst werden kann. In den nur aus Karton bestehenden Verpackungsbehälter ist ein Innenbeutel aus Kunstoffolie eingesetzt, beispielweise aus Folien-Schlauchabschnitten.In the upwardly tapering embodiment, the packaging container according to the invention is particularly suitable as a pouring container for liquids or bulk goods; the removal can be done by a special closure or by cutting an upper corner of the container. Similarly, the packaging container can be used as a tube for pasty filling material, which can be pressed out through this closure or the cut corner. An inner bag made of plastic film is inserted into the packaging container, which consists of cardboard only, for example made of film tube sections.

Jedes Bodendreieck 8 ist mit den zwei zugeordneten Bodenrandkanten 7 über zwei faltbar angelenkten Zwischendreiecken 10 verbunden, die jeweils an der Innenseite einer Seitenwand 2 anliegen.Each floor triangle 8 is connected to the two associated floor edge 7 via two foldable intermediate triangles 10, each of which abuts the inside of a side wall 2.

An den beiden diametral gegenüberliegenden Längskanten 4 sind die jeweils angrenzenden Seitenwände 2 an aufeinanderliegenden Längsrandstreifen 11 miteinander verbunden, beispielsweise durch Klebung oder Versiegelung, wobei Ultraschall- oder Hochfrequenz-Heißsiegelverfahren in herkömmlicher Weise verwendet werden können.On the two diametrically opposed longitudinal edges 4, the respectively adjacent side walls 2 are connected to one another on longitudinal edge strips 11 lying one on top of the other, for example by gluing or sealing, whereby ultrasonic or high-frequency heat sealing methods can be used in a conventional manner.

Auch die Zwischendreiecke 10 sind an ihrem außenliegenden Rand faltbar mit einem Randstreifen 12 verbunden. Wie man aus der vergrößerten Schnittdarstellung in Fig. 4 erkennt, liegen diese beiden Randstreifen 12 aufeinander und zwischen den Längsrandstreifen 11, mit denen sie in der schon beschriebenen Weise verbunden sind.The intermediate triangles 10 are also foldably connected to an edge strip 12 on their outer edge. As can be seen from the enlarged sectional view in FIG. 4, these two edge strips 12 lie on top of one another and between the longitudinal edge strips 11, with which they are connected in the manner already described.

Aus Fig. 1 erkennt man, daß auch entlang dem oberen Behälterabschluß 5 zwei aufeinanderliegende Randstreifen 13 miteinander verbunden sind, so daß der gesamte Verpackungsbehälter dicht verschlossen ist.From Fig. 1 it can be seen that two superimposed edge strips 13 are also connected to one another along the upper container end 5, so that the entire packaging container is tightly sealed.

Aus der Darstellung des Zuschnitts in Fig. 5 erkennt man die Lage der beschriebenen Behälterteile. Man erkennt, daß alle diese Behälterteile nur durch Faltkanten miteinander verbunden sind und daß innerhalb des Zuschnitts oder vom Rand her in den Zuschnitt hinein keinerlei Einschnitte verlaufen. Der Behälterboden 6 ist aus dem mittleren Bereich des Zuschnitts gebildet.5 shows the position of the container parts described. It can be seen that all of these container parts are connected to one another only by folded edges and that no incisions run into the blank or from the edge into the blank. The container bottom 6 is formed from the central region of the blank.

Der in den Fig. 1 bis 4 als Ausführungsbeispiel dargestellte Verpackungsbehälter enthält einen (nicht dargestellten) Innenbeutel aus Kunststoffolie und bann kann beispielsweise Pulver oder Flüssigkeit wie flüssiges Waschmittel oder Motoröl aufnehmen und nach dem Abschneiden entleert werden.The packaging container shown as an exemplary embodiment in FIGS. 1 to 4 contains an inner bag (not shown) made of plastic film and can, for example, absorb powder or liquid such as liquid detergent or motor oil and can be emptied after being cut off.

Wie Fig. 5 zeigt, bilden die beiden Randstreifen 12 benachbarter Zwischendreiecke 10 und die anschließenden Längsrandstreifen 11 auf jeder der beiden Zuschnittseiten einen durchgehenden, nur durch Faltkanten unterbrochenen Zuschnitt-Randstreifen, die am oberen Behälterende, d.h. an den beiden Zuschnittenden, unmittelbar in den oberen Randstreifen 13 übergehen.As shown in Fig. 5, the two edge strips 12 of adjacent intermediate triangles 10 and the subsequent longitudinal edge strips 11 on each of the two cut sides form a continuous cut edge strip, which is only interrupted by folded edges, and which at the upper end of the container, i.e. at the two cut ends, go directly into the upper edge strip 13.

Von dem vorher beschriebenen, sich nach oben verjüngenden Verpackungsbehälter unterscheidet sich der Verpackungsbehälter nach Fig. 6 dadurch, daß er quaderförmig ausgeführt ist, d.h. die Längskanten 3 und 4 verlaufen senkrecht und parallel zueinander. Der Behälterboden 6 ist in der schon beschriebenen Weise aufgebaut. Zur besseren Erkennbarkeit ist der Verpackungsbehälter in Fig. 6 teilweise aufgebrochen und isometrisch räumlich dargestellt. Die einzelnen Zuschnitteile sind mit gleichen Bezugszeichen wie in den Fig. 1 bis 5 bezeichnet.The packaging container according to FIG. 6 differs from the previously described, upwardly tapering packaging container in that it is cuboid, i.e. the longitudinal edges 3 and 4 are perpendicular and parallel to each other. The container bottom 6 is constructed in the manner already described. For better visibility, the packaging container is partially broken open in FIG. 6 and is spatially isometrically represented. The individual cut parts are identified by the same reference numerals as in FIGS. 1 to 5.

Die Längskanten 3 und 4 verlaufen hierbei zu den Ecken eines vierckigen oberen Behälterabschlusses 14, der aus zwei mit den Seitenwänden 2 verbundenen dreieckigen Verschlußklappen 15 besteht, die längs einer Verschlußdiagonale 16 miteinander verbunden sind. Diese Verschlußdiagonale 16 verbindet die oberen Enden der beiden Längskanten 4. Hierzu weisen die beiden Verschlußklappen 15 an der Veschlußdiagonale 16 jeweils einen Randstreifen 17 auf, die miteinander verbunden sind.The longitudinal edges 3 and 4 run to the corners of a square upper container end 14, which consists of two triangular closure flaps 15 connected to the side walls 2, which are connected to one another along a closure diagonal 16. This closure diagonal 16 connects the upper ends of the two longitudinal edges 4. For this purpose, the two closure flaps 15 on the closure diagonal 16 each have an edge strip 17 which are connected to one another.

Aus der Darstellung des Zuschnitts (Fig. 7), der für den Verpackungsbehälter nach Fig. 6 verwendet wird, ist zu erkennen, daß die Verschlußklappen 15 mit den benachbarten Seitenwänden 2 durch jeweils einen zweiteiligen Einschlagzwickel 18 faltbar verbunden sind. Im übrigen ist der Zuschnitt nach Fig. 7 insbesondere im mittleren, den Behälterboden 6 bildenden Bereich in ähnlicher Weise gestaltet wie der Zuschnitt nach Fig. 5, so daß gleiche Bezugszeichen verwendet werden.From the representation of the blank (Fig. 7), which is used for the packaging container according to Fig. 6, it can be seen that the flaps 15 are foldably connected to the adjacent side walls 2 by a two-part gusset 18. Otherwise, the blank according to FIG. 7, in particular in the central area forming the container bottom 6, is designed in a similar manner to the blank according to FIG. 5, so that the same reference numerals are used.

Anstelle des in Fig. 6 dargestellten Behälterabschlusses 14 kann auch ein herkömmlicher Stecklaschenverschluß verwendet werden, so daß der Verpackungsbehälter an seinem oberen Behälterabschluß nach Art einer Faltschachtel verschlossen und geöffnet werden kann.Instead of the container closure 14 shown in FIG. 6, a conventional plug-in closure can also be used, so that the packaging container can be closed and opened at its upper container closure in the manner of a folding box.

Fig. 8 zeigt in Abwandlung gegenüber Fig. 7 einen Zuschnitt für einen Verpackungsbehälter mit rechteckigem Bodengrundriß. Die Zuschnitteile sind mit gleichen Bezugszeichen wie in den Fig. 5 und 7 bezeichnet.Fig. 8 shows, as a modification to Fig. 7, a blank for a packaging container with a rectangular floor plan. The blank parts are identified by the same reference numerals as in FIGS. 5 and 7.
