Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein- oder zweiteilige quaderförmige Verpackungsbehälter für aufeinandergestapelte bandförmige Aufzeichnungsträger, welche auf mit inneren Bohrungen versehene Kerne aufgewickelt sind.The invention relates to one- or two-part cuboid packaging containers for stacked tape-shaped recording media, which are wound on cores provided with inner bores.
Weltweit werden von den Magnetband-Fabriken sogenannte Rohwickel-Einheiten in großen Mengen verkauft. In diesen ist das Magnetband auf Kerne, beispielsweise flanschlose Wickelkerne, entweder die sogenannten NAB-Kerne oder stapelbare Wickelkerne gemäß US 4 081 151 oder andere Kerne, aufgewickelt. Diese Pancakes werden zur Zeit entweder einzeln oder in Sammelgebinden verpackt und mit einer Schrumpffolie überzogen oder durch verschiedene Kartonagen gehalten.Worldwide, so-called raw winding units are sold in large quantities by the magnetic tape factories. In these, the magnetic tape is wound onto cores, for example flangeless winding cores, either the so-called NAB cores or stackable winding cores according to US Pat. No. 4,081,151 or other cores. These pancakes are currently either packaged individually or in collective containers and covered with shrink wrap or held in different cardboard boxes.
Der Nachteil bei der Einzelverpackung besteht darin, daß ein großer Teil von Verpackungsmaterial eingesetzt werden muß.The disadvantage of individual packaging is that a large part of packaging material has to be used.
Magnetband-Sammelverpackungen sind in den Veröffentlichungen US 3 543 922, US 4 708 246, US 4 955 471, EP 0 320 751, DE-U 89 00 709, DE-U 89 12 747 sowie DE-U 89 12 749 genannt. Diese Verpackungen bestehen entweder aus relativ voluminösem Styropor, was ein an sich nutzloses hohes Transportvolumen bedeutet und welches nach Auspacken des Inhalts entsorgt werden muß oder die Verpackung wird durch Kunststoff-Paletten und Hülsen zusammengehalten, wobei die Hülsen relativ kompliziert aufgebaut sind und wobei teilweise die Seitenteile des Verpackungsgutes ungenügend geschützt sind, da sie lediglich durch eine über die Verpackung aufgeschrumpfte Folie bedeckt ist. Daher muß diese Verpackung zum Transport noch zusätzlich in einen Außenkarton gesteckt werden.Magnetic tape collective packaging is mentioned in the publications US 3 543 922, US 4 708 246, US 4 955 471, EP 0 320 751, DE-U 89 00 709, DE-U 89 12 747 and DE-U 89 12 749. These packages either consist of relatively voluminous styrofoam, which means a useless high transport volume and which has to be disposed of after unpacking the contents, or the packaging is held together by plastic pallets and sleeves, the sleeves being relatively complicated and partially the side parts of the packaged goods are insufficiently protected, since it is only covered by a film shrunk onto the packaging. Therefore, this packaging must also be placed in an outer carton for transport.
Pancake-Verpackungen, welche die Verwendung von Styropor vermeiden und welche wiederverwendbar oder recyclingfähig sind, sind in dem DE-GM 90 11 867 sowie in der deutschen Anmeldung P 40 25 906 beschrieben. Diese Verpackungsbehälter bedingen jedoch Teilevielfalt und bieten teilweise ungenügenden Schutz des Inhalts beim Transport sowie gegen Staub. Deshalb bestand die Aufgabe, eine Verpackung für Pancakes zu finden, welche gleichzeitig folgende Bedingungen erfüllt:
- Beschränkung des Anteils der wegzuwerfenden Verpackungsmaterialien auf das geringste nur mögliche Maß
- einfacher Aufbau
- transport- und staubsichere Unterbringung der Pancakes
- einfach zusammenzusetzen und auszupacken
- geringes Volumen beim Rücktransport
- wiederverwendbar
- keine zusätzliche Außenverpackung erforderlich.
- Limitation of the proportion of packaging materials to be discarded to the lowest possible extent
- easy construction
- transport and dustproof storage of the pancakes
- easy to assemble and unpack
- low volume for return transport
- reusable
- no additional outer packaging required.

In einer geeigneten Form ist der Verpackungsbehälter einteilig ausgeführt und besteht, wie Figur 1 zeigt, aus einem flachen Teil, wobei Bodenteil (1), Deckelteil (2) sowie die vier Seitenteile (19) durch sogenannte Filmscharniere (24), knickbare Verbindungslaschen, zusammengehalten werden. Die Teile können abgewinkelt werden, so daß ein quaderförmiger Behälter daraus entsteht, wie Figur 2 zeigt. Durch ein (nicht gezeichnetes) Gurtband, welches um die umlaufende Vertiefung (25) des zusammengeklappten Behälters gelegt wird, wird dieser zum Transport gesichert. Zusätzlich kann das Gurtband einen Tragegriff enthalten, wobei an der Stelle des Tragegriffs die Außenseite der Verpackung eine Griffmulde enthalten kann. Mit Ausnahme dieses Gurtbandes sind alle Teile der neuerungsgemäßen Verpackung oftmalig verwendbar und zum Rücktransport geeignet.In a suitable form, the packaging container is made in one piece and, as shown in FIG. 1, consists of a flat part, the base part (1), cover part (2) and the four side parts (19) being held together by so-called film hinges (24), foldable connecting straps will. The parts can be angled so that a cuboid-shaped container arises therefrom, as shown in FIG. A belt strap (not shown), which is placed around the circumferential recess (25) of the folded container, secures it for transport. In addition, the webbing can contain a handle, wherein the outside of the packaging can contain a recessed grip at the location of the handle. With the exception of this webbing, all parts of the new packaging can often be used and are suitable for return transport.
Zum Öffnen des Behälters wird das Gurtband, welches aus einem Material besteht, wie es bei der Palettensicherung eingesetzt wird, abgetrennt. Das Deckelteil (2) wird angehoben und die Seitenteile (19) können auf einfache Weise weggeklappt werden. Die verpackten Pancakes sind damit frei zugänglich. Die auf Wickelkernen (13) aufgewickelten Pancakes sind auf einer besonders ausgeführten Kernstütze (11), welche noch detailliert beschrieben wird, übereinandergestapelt. Die Kernstütze hat einen integrierten Griff (14) mit welchem man die Stütze mit den Pancakes bequem aus der Verpackung heben und anschließend zum Verarbeitungsplatz bringen kann, der sich meist in einem Reinraum befindet. Die Verpackung selbst erzeugt keinen Staub, wie zum Beispiel Kartonverpackungen, und könnte auch als Einheit in einen Reinraum gebracht werden. Außerdem befinden sich an zwei gegenüberliegenden Ecken der Innenseite des Bodenteils Griffmulden (21) zum Herausheben der Pancakes.To open the container, the webbing, which consists of a material such as that used for securing pallets, is cut off. The cover part (2) is raised and the side parts (19) can be easily folded away. The packaged pancakes are thus freely accessible. The pancakes wound on winding cores (13) are stacked one on top of the other on a specially designed core support (11), which will be described in detail later. The core support has an integrated handle (14) with which you can easily lift the support with the pancakes out of the packaging and then bring them to the processing station, which is usually located in a clean room. The packaging itself does not generate dust, such as cardboard packaging, and could also be brought as a unit into a clean room. There are also recessed grips (21) on two opposite corners of the inside of the base part for lifting out the pancakes.
Die wieder flachliegende Verpackung kann unter Zuhilfenahme von integrierten Stapelhilfen auf einer Palette bequem und platzsparend gestapelt und so für den Rücktransport zum Hersteller vorbereitet werden. Durch die flache Form, ohne hervorstehende Ecken und Kanten kann die Verpackung leicht und vorteilhaft gereinigt werden. Fließmulden erleichtern dabei das Trocknen. Alle Ecken, an denen sich Reinigungsflüssigkeit stauen könnte, fehlen. Anschließend kann ein neuer Verpackungszyklus, wie bereits geschildert, beginnen.The flat-lying packaging can be conveniently and space-savingly stacked on a pallet with the help of integrated stacking aids and thus be prepared for return transport to the manufacturer. Due to the flat shape, without protruding corners and edges, the packaging can be cleaned easily and advantageously. Flow troughs make drying easier. All corners where cleaning fluid could jam are missing. A new packaging cycle can then begin, as already described.
Nun wird der Aufbau der Verpackung im einzelnen geschildert. Zur Gewährleistung des Staub- und Nässeschutzes des Verpackungsinhalts besitzt der Behälter an den im auseinandergeklappten Zustand freiliegenden Außenkanten der Seitenteile oder des Bodenteils oder des Deckelteils Dichtleisten (18), welche in komplementär geformte Nuten (20) der entsprechenden Teile beim Zusammenklappen eingreifen. Diese Leisten beziehungsweise Nuten können durch entsprechende technische Maßnahmen einrastbar gestaltet sein. Es können sich aber auch entsprechende Rasten im Scharnierbereich des Bodens (1) und der Seitenwände (19) befinden.The structure of the packaging is now described in detail. To ensure dust and moisture protection of the packaging contents, the container has sealing strips (18) on the exposed outer edges of the side parts or the base part or the cover part, which engage in complementarily shaped grooves (20) of the corresponding parts when folded up. These strips or grooves can be designed so that they can be snapped in by appropriate technical measures. However, there may also be corresponding catches in the hinge area of the base (1) and the side walls (19).
Die Kernstütze (11) ist in dem Verpackungsbehälter mit dem Bodenteil und Deckelteil (1, 2) im zusammengeklappten Zustand verdrehsicher verbunden. Dazu besitzen Boden- und Deckelteil in ihrer Innenseite in der geometrischen Mitte jeweils Vertiefungen (3, 4), aus denen einzelne Vorsprünge (5, 6, 7, 8) herausragen. Die Stirnflächen (9, 10) der teilzylindrisch gestalteten Kernstütze sind so geformt, daß sie in die Vertiefungen des Boden- und Deckelteils unverdrehbar eingesetzt werden können.The core support (11) is connected in the packaging container to the base part and cover part (1, 2) in the collapsed state so that they cannot rotate. For this purpose, the bottom and lid parts each have depressions (3, 4) in their inner side in the geometric center, from which individual projections (5, 6, 7, 8) protrude. The end faces (9, 10) of the partially cylindrical core support are shaped in such a way that they can be inserted non-rotatably into the depressions in the base and cover parts.
Weiterhin besitzt die Kernstütze, wie aus der Figur 3 hervorgeht, an ihrer unteren Stirnfläche (10), die dem Bodenteil (1) zugeordnet ist, einen Absatz (12) auf dem sich der zu unterst liegende Wickelkern (13) mit seiner der inneren Bohrung benachbarten Unterseite abstützen kann. An der Oberseite (9) hat die Kernstütze einen U-förmigen Tragegriff (14), der in einer bevorzugten Ausführung mit zwei Raststellungen versehen ist. In der oberen Raststellung ist der Griff zum Tragen des kompletten Pancake-Stapels geeignet und in der unteren Stellung ist der Griff in der Kernstütze zwecks Transport der geschlossenen Verpackung versenkt. Dazu sind die beiden Schenkel (15, 16) des Griffs in Ausnehmungen der Kernstütze einsteckbar.Furthermore, as can be seen in FIG. 3, the core support has on its lower end face (10), which is assigned to the base part (1), a shoulder (12) on which the winding core (13) to be located with its inner bore lies can support the adjacent underside. At the top (9), the core support has a U-shaped handle (14), which in a preferred embodiment is provided with two locking positions. In the upper locking position, the handle is suitable for carrying the entire pancake stack and in the lower position, the handle is recessed in the core support for the purpose of transporting the closed packaging. For this purpose, the two legs (15, 16) of the handle can be inserted into recesses in the core support.
Die beiden Schenkel (15, 16) des Tragegriffs (14) besitzen zweckmäßigerweise (nicht gezeichnete) Rastnasen, die den Griff im ausgefahrenen und eingefahrenen Zustand arretieren. Sollten die Gebinde zu schwer sein, kann der Tragegriff auch einstückig mit der Kernstütze ausgebildet sein. In diesem Fall ist ein Greifen durch die unter dem Griff vorgesehene Griffmulde (17) möglich.The two legs (15, 16) of the handle (14) expediently have locking lugs (not shown) which lock the handle in the extended and retracted state. If the containers are too heavy, the handle can also be made in one piece with the core support. In this case, gripping is possible through the recessed grip (17) provided under the handle.
Zum leichten Abnehmen einzelner Pancakes hat die Kernstütze über ihre gesamte Höhe zwei gegenüberliegende konkave Mulden (25, 26) in Kreisabschnittsform.For easy removal of individual pancakes, the core support has two opposing concave depressions (25, 26) in the shape of a circular section over its entire height.
An einer der Außenflächen der Verpackung kann ein vertieftes Etikettenfeld (28), welches zusätzlich Griffmulden zum Entfernen oder Auswechseln eines Etiketts besitzt, vorgesehen sein.A recessed label field (28), which additionally has recessed grips for removing or replacing a label, can be provided on one of the outer surfaces of the packaging.
Statt des geschilderten einteiligen Aufbaus kann der erfindungsgemäße Behälter auch zwei- oder mehrteilig ausgeführt sein, die Figuren 4 und 5 zeigen zwei mögliche Ausführungsformen, bei denen entweder Boden- und Deckelteil mit je zwei Seitenteilen verbunden sind oder aber das Bodenteil mit vier Seitenteilen, auf die das separate Deckelteil aufgesetzt wird.Instead of the one-piece construction described, the container according to the invention can also be made in two or more parts, FIGS. 4 and 5 show two possible embodiments, in which either the bottom and lid parts are each connected with two side parts or the bottom part with four side parts on which the separate cover part is put on.
Zum Sammeltransport mehrerer Verpackungsbehälter im aufgeklappten Zustand sind diese zweckmäßigerweise entlang der Außenkanten ihres Boden- oder Deckelteils mit Nuten (23) versehen, die in entsprechende komplementär geformte Leisten (18) der aufgeklappten Seitenteile (19) eingreifen und so einen rutschsicheren Transport mehrerer übereinandergestapelter Behälter ermöglichen. In der Figur 6 ist dies dargestellt. Zusätzlich kann jeder Behälter an den Außenflächen mit einer Noppenstruktur versehen sein, wie sie beispielsweise in der EP 0 217 254 beschrieben ist. Außerdem kann der Verpackungsbehälter an seiner Unterseite mit Standfüßen und Vertiefungen zum besseren Stapeln auf einer Palette ausgerüstet sein.For the bulk transport of several packaging containers in the opened state, these are expediently provided with grooves (23) along the outer edges of their base or cover part, which engage in corresponding complementarily shaped strips (18) of the opened side parts (19) and thus enable a non-slip transport of several stacked containers . This is shown in FIG. 6. In addition, each container can be provided with a knob structure on the outer surfaces, as described, for example, in EP 0 217 254. In addition, the underside of the packaging container can be equipped with feet and recesses for better stacking on a pallet.
In Figur 7 ist dargestellt, wie zwei (oder mehrere) vollständig auseinandergeklappte Verpackungen zum Rücktransport übereinandergestapelt werden, wobei Vorsprünge (5) an der Innenseite des Bodenteils in entsprechende Vertiefungen der Außenseite eingreifen.FIG. 7 shows how two (or more) completely unfolded packages are stacked one above the other for return transport, with projections (5) on the inside of the base part engaging in corresponding recesses on the outside.
Bei der zweiteiligen Form der Verpackung kann das Deckelteil gekröpft sein, um unterschiedliche Verpackungshöhen zu ermöglichen. Außerdem kann die umlaufende Dichtleiste unsymmetrisch ausgeführt sein, um je nach Einsatz unterschiedliche Verpackungshöhen bilden zu können.In the two-part form of the packaging, the cover part can be cranked to allow different packaging heights. In addition, the circumferential sealing strip can be designed asymmetrically in order to be able to form different packaging heights depending on the application.
Die Gestalt der Kernstütze ermöglicht, daß mehrere Kernstützen übereinandergestapelt werden können. Sie ist zweckmäßigerweise hohl, damit sie im Fertigungsprozeß auf einen Hilfsdorn aufgesteckt werden kann.The shape of the core support enables several core supports to be stacked on top of one another. It is expediently hollow so that it can be attached to an auxiliary mandrel in the manufacturing process.
Der Verpackungsbehälter besteht in bevorzugter Ausführung aus hartem Kunststoff wie Polypropylen oder Acrylnitril-Butadien-Styrol-Copolymer. Er ist vorzugsweise doppelwandig ausgeführt, entweder im Spritzgußverfahren oder in Extrusions-Blastechnik. Dadurch hat der Behälter zusätzlich einen hervorragenden Stoß- und Klimaschutz.In a preferred embodiment, the packaging container consists of hard plastic such as polypropylene or acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer. It is preferably double-walled, either by injection molding or by extrusion blow molding. As a result, the container also has excellent impact and climate protection.
