Definitions
- the invention relates to a pack of a plurality of cuboid packs, which are surrounded by an outer wrapping made of cardboard, paper or plastic film, in particular a cigarette carton.
- cigarette packs Smaller products, for example cigarette packs, are packaged in larger containers for easier handling during transport and in retail. Individual packs of cigarettes are preferably combined by a further wrapper into cigarette packs. In some countries there are tax or customs regulations so that tax stamps must be affixed to the individual cigarette packets, shortly before delivery to the end user. Applying the brands therefore, packaging is not an option. Rather, the dealer must open the package, attach the tax stamps and then close the package again. Such an approach is time consuming and uneconomical.
- the object of the present invention is to design a pack so that individual packs can be provided with markings without the packaging or wrapping having to be opened for this. Furthermore, it is an object of the invention to provide a blank which is suitable for this purpose.
- the object is achieved in that the outer wrapper has recesses in the area of one outer side of the wrapped packs, which are suitable for the passage of stamp or other marking elements for attaching (control) stamps to the pack surface. As a result, it is no longer necessary to open the pack to attach markings.
- Each pack is advantageously assigned a separate recess in the outer casing, in particular in the area of a bottom surface of the packs.
- adjacent recesses are preferably delimited from one another by webs of the outer casing. In this way, the formation of recesses that are too large and thus sensitive to damage is avoided.
- a pack 10 is designed as a so-called cigarette rod with two rows 11, 12 of cigarette packs 13 arranged one above the other.
- An outer wrapping 14 made of cardboard, paper or plastic film holds the pack 10 in the form intended. 1 each shows bottom surfaces 15 of the cigarette packs 13.
- Markings 16 are provided on the floor surfaces 15.
- the outer covering 14 has recesses 17 in the region of the base surfaces 15, specifically one recess per base surface.
- the individual recesses 17 are separated from one another in the region of edges 18 between the bottom surfaces 15 and narrow sides of the pack by webs 19.
- the recesses 17 extend over the full width, that is, in the direction of the section line II-II, of the cigarette packs 13. This means that larger marking elements can also be used to mark the packs.
- the arrangement of the webs 19 above the adjacent edges 18 prevents individual cigarette packs 13 from escaping from the Package 10.
- FIG. 2 shows a special feature of the pack 10. This can be divided into two sub-packs 20, 21.
- the outer casing 14 is designed in a special way.
- the pack rows 11, 12 are each complete, but at the same time wrapped in a common blank 22 which forms the outer wrapper 14.
- the latter is explained in more detail in connection with FIG. 4.
- the two partial containers 20, 21 lie against one another in the region of large front walls 23 and rear walls 24 of the cigarette packs 13.
- Intermediate broad sides 25, 26 of the outer wrapper 14 are connected to one another in the area of a narrow outer surface 27 of the pack 10.
- a weakening line 28 is provided in the area of this connection, for example as a perforation.
- the line of weakness 28 is arranged approximately between the front walls 23 or rear walls 24 and the pack tops opposite the bottom surfaces 15.
- the recesses 17 are each arranged on the weakening line 28 opposite outer surfaces 29. In this way, the stability and the packaging function of the outer wrapper 14 are ensured to a particularly high degree.
- narrow sides 32, 33 are also part of the envelope.
- the former lying in the area of the weakening line 28 and the latter in the area of the recesses 17.
- the respective outer front walls and rear walls of the cigarette packs are covered by broad sides 34, 35 of the outer wrapper 14.
- side tabs 36, 37, 38 are provided, which partially overlap in the finished outer casing 14.
- the reference numerals 37, 38 denote longitudinal side flaps which are connected to the narrow sides 32 in a continuation thereof. 2 that the side longitudinal flaps 37, 38 are folded between the broad sides 25, 26 and the front walls 23 and rear walls 24 covered thereby.
- FIG. 3 shows a pack 10 similar to that in FIGS. 1 and 2, but with somewhat smaller recesses 39.
- transverse edge regions 40 delimiting the recesses 39 are provided for this purpose. This embodiment meets particularly high stability requirements.
- FIG. 4 shows the blank 22 which has been spread out to form the outer covering 14 according to FIG. 1.
- the blank 22 is essentially rectangular, with narrower cutting sides 41 extending parallel to the longitudinal edges 42 of the blank 22 folded to form the outer covering 14.
- the longitudinal edges 42 are marked in FIG. 4 as a continuous line and at the same time each represent a longitudinal edge of the broad sides 34, 35.
- the weakening line 28 is provided parallel to the narrow cut sides 41 and approximately midway between these two. Starting from the latter, a broad side 25 or 26, the narrow side 33, a broad side 34 or 35 and the narrow side 32 are provided in succession from the inside to the outside.
- the lateral longitudinal flaps 37, 38 each adjoin the latter.
- the recesses 17 are each arranged in the region of the narrow sides 33 and thus between the broad sides 25 and 34 or 26 and 35.
- Adhesives 43 for fixing the outer wrapping 14 in the finished pack 10 are provided on the side tabs 36 or side longitudinal tabs 37, 38.
