Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zigarettenpackung nach Art einer Klappschachtel, mit einem Schachtelteil, einem mit dem Schachtelteil gelenkig verbundenen Deckel, einem Kragen, der mit einem unteren Teilbereich im Schachtelteil verankert ist und der mit einem oberen Teilbereich in Schließstellung des Deckels innerhalb desselben angeordnet ist, und mit einem abnehmbaren Druckträger.The invention relates to a cigarette pack like a Hinged box, with a box part, one with the Box part hinged lid, a collar that is anchored with a lower section in the box part and with an upper section in the closed position of the Lid is arranged within the same, and with a removable print carrier.

Klappschachteln - auch Hinge-Lid-Packungen genannt - sind Weltweit als Verpackungen für Zigaretten bekannt. Eine Zigaretten-Gruppe ist innerhalb der Klappschachtel von einer Innenumhüllung aus Stanniol oder Papier umgeben. Die Klappschachtel besteht aus einem Schachtelteil und einem gelenkig mit einer Rückseite desselben verbundenen Deckel. In Schließstellung liegen Schachtelteil und Deckel entlang einer Schließkante im Bereich einer Vorderwand und im Bereich von Seitenwänden bündig aneinander. Die Packung ist üblicherweise mit einer Außenumhüllung aus Zellglas oder Kunststoffolie versehen.Folding boxes - also called hinge-lid packs - are worldwide known as packaging for cigarettes. A cigarette group is inside the folding box with an inner wrapping surrounded by tin foil or paper. The folding box exists from a box part and an articulated one Back of the same connected lid. Lie in the closed position Box part and lid along a closing edge in the area a front wall and flush in the area of the side walls to each other. The pack is usually with an outer wrapper made of cellophane or plastic film.

Bei derartigen Packungen besteht zunehmend ein Bedürfnis, auf gesonderten Druckträgern Informationen für den Verbraucher anzubringen. Dabei kann es sich um Werbehinweise, um Sachinformationen, aber auch um Gutscheine bzw. Teilnahmescheine für Veranstaltungen handeln. Eine Klappschachtel für Zigaretten ist von Haus aus wenig geeignet für das Anbringen eines derartigen Druckträgers. With such packages there is an increasing need to separate information for the consumer. This can be advertising information, factual information, but also for vouchers or participation certificates for Act events. There is a hinged box for cigarettes inherently not very suitable for attaching such Print medium.

Aus der EP-A-0 476 882 ist eine Zigarettenpackung nach Art einer Klappschachtel, bestehend aus Deckel, Schachtelteil, innen eingesetztem Kragen und in Folie eingehüllter Zigarettengruppe bekannt. Eine Kragenvorderwand weist nach oben einen Fortsatz auf, der als Druckträger dient und entlang einer Schwächungslinie abtrennbar ist. Die auf dem Druckträger vorgesehenen Informationen sind bei geschlossener Packung nicht erkennbar.EP-A-0 476 882 describes a cigarette pack according to Art a hinged box, consisting of a lid, box part, collar inserted inside and cigarette group wrapped in foil known. A collar front has one up Extension on, which serves as a print carrier and along one Line of weakness is separable. The provided on the print medium Information is not recognizable when the package is closed.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Klappschachteln für Zigaretten so zu gestalten, daß ein Druckträger in Gestalt eines Etiketts oder dergleichen in sinnvoller Weise an bzw. in der Packung angebracht und bei geschlossener Packung außen erkennbar ist.The invention is based, folding boxes for the task To design cigarettes so that a print carrier is in shape a label or the like in a meaningful manner on or in attached to the pack and recognizable on the outside when the pack is closed is.

Zur Lösung dieser Augabe ist die Zigarettenpackung durch folgende Merkmale gekennzeichnet:

  • a) der Druckträger besteht aus einem gesonderten Zuschnitt aus dünnwandigem Material, wie Papier, Folie oder dünnem Karton, der mit einem oberen Verankerungsteil innerhalb des Deckels angeordnet ist,
  • b) der Druckträger ragt mit einem unteren Sichtteil aus der geschlossenen Klappschachtel über einen Schließspalt zwischen Schachtelteil und Deckel heraus und liegt mit dem Sichtteil an einer Vorderwand des Schachtelteils ohne Verbindung mit dieser an,
  • c) die Klappschachtel ist von einer klarsichtigen Außenumhüllung umgeben, so daß der Sichtteil an der Vorderwand und unter der Außenumhüllung liegt,
  • d) der Druckträger erstreckt sich mit dem Verankerungsteil über die volle Innenfläche einer Deckel-Vorderwand
    • To solve this issue, the cigarette pack is characterized by the following features:
  • a) the print carrier consists of a separate blank made of thin-walled material, such as paper, film or thin cardboard, which is arranged with an upper anchoring part within the cover,
  • b) the print carrier protrudes with a lower visible part from the closed hinged box over a closing gap between the box part and the lid and lies with the visible part against a front wall of the box part without being connected to it,
  • c) the hinged box is surrounded by a clear outer wrapping so that the visible part lies on the front wall and under the outer wrapper,
  • d) the pressure carrier extends with the anchoring part over the full inner surface of a cover front wall

    • Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Ausführung der Verpackung ist demnach der aus einem eigenständigen Zuschnitt bestehende Druckträger teilweise innerhalb und teilweise außerhalb der Packung angeordnet. Es kann deshalb von außen auch vor Ingebrauchnahme der Packung erkannt werden, ob ein Druckträger vorhanden ist. Die bei Klappschachteln für Zigaretten übliche Außenumhüllung aus einer Klarsichtfolie macht ebenfalls den Druckträger bzw. den aus der Klappschachtel herausragenden Teil sichtbar.Accordingly, in the embodiment of the packaging according to the invention the print carrier consisting of an independent cut partly inside and partly outside the pack. It can therefore also be used from the outside Package can be recognized whether a print carrier is present. The usual outer wrapping for folding boxes for cigarettes a transparent film also makes the print carrier or the part protruding from the hinged box is visible.

    Erfindungsgemäß ist der Verankerungsteil des Druckträgers lösbar in der Packung bzw. im Deckel fixiert. Beispielsweise kann der Druckträger mit Leimpunkten an der Innenseite des Deckels befestigt sein. Statt dessen oder zusätzlich kann ein Endabschnitt des Verankerungsteils innerhalb des Deckels durch Faltlappen desselben verankert sein, beispielsweise durch bei Klappschachteln übliche Deckel-Ecklappen, die innen an einer Deckel-Oberwand anliegen. Der Endabschnitt des Verankerungsteils ist dabei erfindungsgemäß zwischen den beiden Deckel-Ecklappen einerseits und der Deckel-Oberwand andererseits fixiert.According to the anchoring part of the pressure carrier is releasable fixed in the pack or in the lid. For example the print carrier with glue dots on the inside of the lid. Instead or in addition can have an end portion of the anchoring part inside the lid must be anchored by folding flaps, for example, with lid flaps that are common in hinged boxes, which lie on the inside of a top wall of the lid. Of the End section of the anchoring part is according to the invention between the two lid corner flaps on the one hand and the Lid top wall, on the other hand, fixed.

    In den Zeichnungen ist als bevorzugtes Anwendungsbeispiel eine Klappschachtel 10 gezeigt. Diese besteht bekanntermaßen aus einem Schachtelteil 11 und einem Deckel 12. Die insgesamt quaderförmige Klappschachtel 10 dient zur Aufnahme einer Zigarettengruppe, die unter Bildung eines Zigaretten-Blocks 13 von einer Innenumhüllung 14 aus Stanniol oder Papier umgeben ist. Der so ausgebildete Zigaretten-Block 13 sitzt mit dem überwiegenden, unteren Bereich im Schachtelteil 11. Ein aus diesem herausragender oberer Teil wird in Schließstellung von dem Deckel 12 umgeben. In the drawings is a preferred example of use a hinged box 10 is shown. This is known to exist from a box part 11 and a lid 12. Die overall cuboidal hinged box 10 is used for receiving a group of cigarettes forming a Cigarette blocks 13 from an inner wrapper 14 Tinfoil or paper is surrounded. The trained one Cigarette block 13 sits with the predominant, lower one Area in the box part 11. An outstanding of this the upper part is closed by the cover 12 surround.

    Schachtelteil 11 und Deckel 12 bestehen aus einem einstückigen Zuschnitt aus dünnem Karton. Der Deckel 12 ist so gefaltet, daß Deckel-Seitenwände 15, 16 aus aneinanderliegenden Deckel-Seitenlappen 17, 18 bestehen. Mit den innenliegenden Deckel-Seitenlappen 18 der Deckel-Seitenwände 15, 16 ist jeweils ein Deckel-Ecklappen 19, 20 verbunden. Die beiden Deckel-Ecklappen 19, 20 liegen an der Innenseite einer Deckel-Oberwand 21 an.Box part 11 and lid 12 consist of one piece Cut from thin cardboard. The lid 12 is like this folded that lid side walls 15, 16 from adjacent Cover side tabs 17, 18 exist. With the inside Lid side tabs 18 of the lid side walls 15, 16, a lid corner flap 19, 20 is connected. The two lid corner flaps 19, 20 lie on the inside a lid top wall 21.

    Eine Deckel-Vorderwand 22 ist mit einem innen angeordneten Deckel-Innenlappen 23 versehen. Im oberen Teil des Schachtelteils 11 ist ein ebenfalls üblicher Kragen 24 mit Kragen-Vorderwand 25 und Kragen-Seitenlappen 26 angeordnet. Ein oberer Bereich des Kragens 24 ragt aus dem Schachtelteil 11 heraus.A lid front wall 22 is arranged with an inside Lid inner tab 23 provided. In the upper part of the box part 11 is a collar 24 which is also common Collar front wall 25 and collar side tabs 26 arranged. An upper area of the collar 24 protrudes from the box part 11 out.

    Die so ausgebildete Klappschachtel ist üblicherweise durch eine Außenumhüllung 27 aus Zellglas oder Kunststoffolie umgeben.The hinged box thus formed is usually through an outer covering 27 made of cellophane or plastic film surround.

    Der insoweit beschriebenen Packung ist ein bedrucktes Etikett, nämlich ein Druckträger 28 zugeordnet. Dieser ist im vorliegenden Falle rechteckig ausgebildet und entspricht in der Breite etwa den Innenabmessungen der Klappschachtel 10. Des weiteren ist der Druckträger 28 so bemessen und angeordnet, daß ein Teilbereich desselben, nämlich ein Verankerungsteil 29, sich bei geschlossener Verpackung bzw. vor Ingebrauchnahme derselben innerhalb der Verpackung, und zwar innerhalb des Deckels 12, erstreckt. Der übrige Teil, nämlich ein Sichtteil 30 ragt aus der geschlossenen Klappschachtel 10 heraus und ist außen sichtbar. Dieser Sichtteil 30 liegt hier an der Außenseite einer Vorderwand 31 des Schachtelteils 11 an. Der Sichtteil 30 ist demnach von außen erkennbar, und zwar auch bei Vorhandensein der klarsichtigen Außenumhüllung 27.The pack described so far is a printed one Label, namely a print carrier 28 assigned. This is in the present case rectangular and corresponds about the width of the inside dimensions of the hinged box 10. Furthermore, the print carrier 28 is dimensioned and arranged that a portion of the same, namely a Anchoring part 29, when the packaging is closed or before use within the packaging, and indeed within the cover 12 extends. The rest, namely a visible part 30 protrudes from the closed hinged box 10 out and is visible from the outside. This visual part 30 here lies on the outside of a front wall 31 of the box part 11. The visible part 30 is therefore from recognizable from the outside, even if the clear-sighted are present Outer casing 27.

    Der Druckträger 28 ist innerhalb der Klappschachtel 10 lösbar verankert. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel erstreckt sich der Druckträger 28 an der Innenseite der Deckel-Vorderwand 22 bzw. des Deckel-Innenlappens 23 sowie an der Innenseite der Deckel-Oberwand 21, und zwar über deren volle Breite. Der Druckträger 28 bzw. dessen Verankerungsteil 29 ist hier durch Faltlappen der Klappschachtel 10 fixiert. Es handelt sich dabei um die Deckel-Ecklappen 19, 20. Der Verankerungsteil bzw. ein sich im Bereich der Deckel-Oberwand 21 erstreckender Endabschnitt 32 liegt zwischen der Deckel-Oberwand 21 und den beiden Deckel-Ecklappen 19, 20, ist hier demnach eingespannt.The print carrier 28 is inside the hinged box 10 detachably anchored. In the present embodiment extends the print carrier 28 on the inside of the Lid front wall 22 and the lid inner tab 23 and on the inside of the lid top wall 21, namely via their full width. The pressure carrier 28 or its anchoring part 29 is here by folding the hinged box 10 fixed. These are the lid corner flaps 19, 20. The anchoring part or one in the Area of the lid top wall 21 extending end portion 32 lies between the lid top wall 21 and the two Lid corner flaps 19, 20 is therefore clamped here.

    Beim Öffnen der Klappschachtel 10 wird der Druckträger 28 durch den Deckel 12 zunächst gehalten. Der Druckträger kann aber sehr leicht aus der Verankerung im Bereich der Deckel-Oberwand 21 herausgezogen werden. Üblicherweise wird der Druckträger 28 der Packung beim ersten Öffnen derselben entnommen und verwertet bzw. entsorgt.When the hinged box 10 is opened, the print carrier 28 initially held by the lid 12. The print medium can but very easy from anchoring in the area of Lid top wall 21 are pulled out. Usually the print carrier 28 of the package when it is first opened removed and recycled or disposed of.

    Der Druckträger 28 kann mit dem Verankerungsteil 29 auch auf andere Weise in der Klappschachtel 10 lösbar fixiert sein, insbesondere durch kleine Leimpunkte. Zum Beispiel kann der Druckträger 28 an der Innenseite der Deckel-Vorderwand 22 angeheftet sein, aber auch - mit der Rückseite - an einem aus dem Schachtelteil 11 herausragenden Bereich der Kragen-Vorderwand 25.The pressure carrier 28 can also with the anchoring part 29 otherwise releasably fixed in the hinged box 10 be, especially with small glue spots. For example can the print carrier 28 on the inside of the lid front wall 22 can be pinned, but also - with the back - On a protruding from the box part 11 Area of the collar front wall 25.

    Der Druckträger 28 besteht aus einem dünnwandigen, für die Bedruckung geeigneten Material, insbesondere aus Papier, (Kunststoff- oder Stanniol-)Folie oder dünnem Karton.The print carrier 28 consists of a thin-walled, for the Suitable material, especially paper, (Plastic or tinfoil) film or thin cardboard.
