Definitions

  • the invention relates to an erection box according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such an erection box is known for example from DE 33 02 972 C2.
  • This is designed as an open, stackable crate, in which tongues protruding from the end of the side walls engage in corresponding recesses at the end of the end walls and thus hold the box in an erect state.
  • the tongues lose their rigidity, so that the stability of the box is impaired.
  • the known erection box is therefore unsuitable for repeated use if, for transport reasons, it requires folding and re-erecting the box.
  • the tongues are also subjected to additional pressure when pressure is exerted against the side walls, which can also lead to a rapid loss of rigidity and thus the stability of the box.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an erection box that is stable, foldable and re-erectable in many ways, without affecting its stability, the folding and re-erection can also be carried out by inexperienced people.
  • the proposed design with the features of claim 1 gives a dimensionally stable box, in which the recesses or recesses are only exposed to the load caused by the slight prestressing of the inner wall part of the end walls. External loads, however, do not act on the recesses and wall parts engaging therein, so that they remain dimensionally stable and their function is not impaired.
  • locking tabs are provided in the corner area of the inner wall part of the end walls, which latch into correspondingly shaped recesses on the side walls.
  • the locking tab is not subjected to bending, but only to pressure in the material direction, which results in greater stability due to the higher resilience of cardboard or cardboard in this direction of stress.
  • the side walls are preferably also double-walled, the inner wall part containing the recesses for receiving the inner wall part or the locking tabs, so that they fold and rest on the outer wall part of the side walls, and are thereby securely fixed in position.
  • the outer wall part of the side walls advantageously contains through-holes in the area of the cutouts for pressing the locking tabs out of the cutouts, as a result of which the collapsing of the erected box is very simplified. If a large number of collapsed boxes are stacked on top of one another, bolts, rods, wires, strips or the like clamping means can be passed through the through holes, so that a compact, easily transportable package is obtained.
  • the erection box Since the erection box has an opening that is limited only by the narrow upper edges of the side and end walls, it can be used both on the one hand as a base part and on the other hand as a cover part for a closed box.
  • the bottom 1 of the erecting box 50 is connected via folds 2 and 3 to the outer parts 4 and 5 of the side walls 51, 52 and via folds 6 and 7 to the outer parts 8 and 9 of the end walls 53, 54.
  • the outer parts 4 and 5 are connected by folds 10 and 11 to inner parts 12 and 13 of the side walls 51, 52;
  • the outer parts 8 and 9 are connected via folds 14 and 15 to inner parts 16 and 17 of the end walls 53, 54.
  • the end and side walls 51, 52, 53, 54 are connected to one another by connecting lugs 18, which are each connected to the adjacent end of an outer part of the end and side wall to be connected via a fold 55, 56.
  • Each connecting plate 18 contains a diagonal fold 19, which starts from the associated corner 57 of the base 1 and divides the connecting plate 18 symmetrically. The folds are drawn in thinner lines than the outline.
  • the inner parts 12 and 13 of the side walls 51, 52 have cutouts 20 at their outer corners.
  • the outer parts 4 and 5 of the side walls 51, 52 are in the vicinity of the folds 2 and 3 and the provided with through holes 21 at the ends adjoining the connecting straps 18.
  • the inner parts 16 and 17 of the end walls 53, 54 carry two locking tabs 22 on each side of their outer edge 58 via a short bending fold 24; this outer edge 58 also contains a punched-out portion 23 in its center, which serves to engage the fingers when folded after use.
  • the shape of the locking tabs 22 corresponds to the cutouts 20, in which they engage in the folded and erected state of the erecting box 50 (cf. FIG. 3).
  • the wall part 9 has a punched-out viewing window 25, through which, in the erected state (FIG. 3), an inscription 26, for example, printed on the wall part 17 or fastened in some other way. B. is visible as a label.
  • the inner parts 12 and 13 of the side walls 51, 52 are bent inwards about the folds 10 and 11 and placed on the associated outer parts 4 and 5 and glued to them , so that the blank has the shape shown in FIG. 2.
  • the cutouts 20 lie in the inner parts 12 and 13 over the regions of the outer parts 4 and 5 containing the through holes 21.
  • the inwardly folded wall parts 12, 13, 16, 17 extend only over part of the height of the wall parts 4, 5, 8, 9 extend z. B. only over half, as indicated in dashed lines and the reference numerals 20 'and 22'.
  • the interlocking parts 20 'and 22' in contrast to FIG. 3, are not arranged in the area of the base part 1, but rather approximately half the height of the end or side walls 51, 52, 53, 54.
  • the box is erected in such a way that the double-walled side walls 51, 52 around the folds 2 and 3 and the End walls 53, 54 are bent upwards about the folds 6 and 7 perpendicular to the bottom 1 (FIG. 4).
  • the connecting tabs 18 are bent along the diagonal fold 19 towards the inside of the box (right half of FIG. 4), their two mirror-image halves abutting one another.
  • the kinked connecting tabs 18 are then pressed in the direction of the respective outer part 8 or 9 of the end walls, and the corresponding inner part 16 or 17 is bent inward about the fold 14 or 15 then lying at the top, so that the side walls 51, 52 are vertical are erected and the connecting straps 18 are clamped between the outer part 8 and 9 and the inner part 16 and 17, respectively.
  • the side walls 51, 52 are also fixed in their vertical position.
  • the locking tabs 22 they carry, preferably provided, are bent at a right angle such that they point parallel to the side walls 51, 52 into the interior of the box.
  • the erection box shown in FIG is and has a high stability.
  • the degree of prestress can be varied. If, for example, the offset m of its outer edge 62 with respect to the fold 14 is chosen to be larger, as shown in broken lines in FIG. 1 is shown, the wall part 16 can be folded more easily over the wall part 8 and the clamping tab 18 clamped in between, so that the pretension is less.
  • the support edge 28 on the recess 20 in the corner region of the erecting box can also be realized in that instead of the double-walled design of the side walls 51, 52 one or more support strips 29, 30 are glued to the inside of the side wall 4, 5 with the omission of the wall part 12, 13 be, as shown in chain lines in Fig. 3.
  • the locking tabs 22 are slightly bent inwards through the through holes 21 from the outside by finger pressure, so that they are moved out of the cutouts 20.
  • the inner parts 16 and 17 are also moved parallel to the side walls 51, 52, so that they no longer coincide with the recesses 20 and can no longer spring back into them after being released by the finger.
  • the inner parts 16 and 17 are now gripped behind in the area of the punched-out areas 23 and bent outwards, so that the box 50 folded flat is obtained again according to FIG. 2.
  • a closed box can be formed from two erection boxes 60 serving as the bottom part and the lid part according to FIG. 3, the lid part being slightly larger than the bottom part in order to be able to be put over it.
  • the boxes can be used in such a way that their intended contents are transported from the supplier to the customer, that after the contents have been removed, the customer folds the boxes together and, preferably in large numbers, sends them back to the supplier, who sets them up again and can provide new content.
  • reusable use of the erecting boxes is e.g. B. possible as a shoe box.
  • the box can also be erected mechanically by folding up the end walls 53, 54 and pressing together the inner and outer parts 8, 9, 16, 17 until the snap connection snaps into the recess 20.
  • the half of the connecting bracket 18 facing the wall part 8, 9 is preferably attached to the wall part 8, 9, preferably glued or clamped, as shown in dotted lines.
  • a simplified embodiment is shown in the lower half of FIG. 5, which has no locking tabs 22 compared to the embodiment described above.
  • the snap-in connection in the erected state is achieved by engaging the outer edge 27 of the wall part 16, 17 in the recess 20, which are formed here by cutting edges of the wall part 13 offset by the dimension 31 relative to the fold 31. These cut edges also form the support edges 28 on which the outer edges 27 of the wall parts 16, 17 are supported in the erected state, as is shown in plan view in FIG. 6.
  • the through holes 21 are no longer provided in the side walls, but in the outer wall part 8 of the end wall, as indicated by the arrow 21 '(see FIG. 5, lower half). By pushing through the through holes 21 ', the inner wall part 16 is bent so that its two outer edges 27 slide out of the recess 20 and then the erection box can be folded flat again.
  • FIG. 7 shows a packaging formed from two erection boxes described above, an intermediate piece 42 being inserted between a base part 40 erected according to FIG. 3 and a cover part 41.
  • the intermediate piece 42 is preferably formed in one piece, which can be folded flat by folding over the four edges 43, 44, 45, 46, as is indicated in FIG. 8 by dashed lines with corresponding reference symbols 44 ', 45'.
  • the intermediate piece 42 can also be in several parts, for. B. be composed of two overlapping U-shaped sections.
  • end wall and side wall are not limited to the shorter or longer boundary wall of the erection box.
  • recess 20 on the longer side wall 51, 52 and the wall parts 16, 17 engaging therein are preferably provided with locking tabs 22 on the shorter end wall 53, 54, the arrangement can also be reversed.
