Definitions

  • the invention relates to packaging for objects, consisting of of two interconnected parts, between which the object is arranged and the one part with one a pocket for enclosing the object Is plastic film.
  • Such packaging for items for their storage, Storage, transportation and presentation, for example Sales stands in the form of so-called blisters sufficiently committed. They basically consist of two parts, between which the object is arranged. One part it is usually a box that contains the product information and carries the back wall of the packaging forms. On this flat cardboard blank there is a clear one Plastic film attached, for example glued on. This is to enclose the object to be packaged Provide a plastic bag with a pocket accordingly.
  • a disadvantage of this known packaging is that it is complicated Objects cannot be held, for example Wet shavers, as well as the associated container and the associated Dispenser for the razor blade units.
  • Wet shavers as well as the associated container and the associated Dispenser for the razor blade units.
  • the item in the package is not theirs Maintain position and therefore back and forth within the packaging hike here. This can result in compound objects that these dissolve into their individual parts, so that the desired presentation character is disturbed. Furthermore the objects rattle undesirably in the packaging when moving.
  • DE-OS 37 00 698 proposes to provide packaging for two transparent packaging halves, each half pocket essentially of shape of the product, which from the level of the respective Project the remaining half of the packaging in one piece. So there will be half-shell-shaped plastic films formed on the edges are glued together and the object to be packaged lock in.
  • this packaging is being manufactured complex and therefore expensive, on the other hand, it guarantees not that composite objects in particular are not dissolve into its individual parts.
  • this type of packaging disadvantageous in terms of transport, storage and display.
  • EP-A-0 423 855 contains similar blisters Formation of flexible, corrugated areas reveals that enable a kind of spring clamp or the formation of Slit slots with the same effect.
  • the object of the invention is to create an improved packaging which, on the one hand, holds complicated objects correctly and without separation, and on the other hand can be produced with little economic effort.
  • the invention proposes that the first part is a flat, unshaped plastic film, and the second part is a plastic film provided with a bulge, which is formed by several different volumes merging into one another, the bulge being exactly the outer surface contour of the Packaged goods, seen in the packaging position from above and from the sides, corresponds.
  • the packaging is designed according to this technical teaching the advantage that the items contained therein safely in their Positions are held without the risk that the objects slip inside the packaging when moving, or that composite objects fit into theirs Dissolve individual parts. This is especially true of form complicated objects, such as wet shavers with the associated Holder and a dispenser for the razor blade units.
  • By appropriate bulging one of the two Plastic films make the objects safe on all sides held.
  • the profiling of the plastic film must be be essential such that the profiling exactly the contour corresponds to the surface of the object.
  • the Production of the packaging possible without great effort, since a of the two foils is a completely unshaped blank, so that the packaging can be manufactured economically can.
  • the packaging known in the art is that too intricate items made up of a variety of items are assembled without the individual parts together are permanently attached after the production process in their Use position packed nested, stored and across the entire distribution channel to the sales outlets can be transported.
  • the user sees in the Packing a combination of several items in your Position of use, with a neat impression by the Special configuration of the packaging according to the invention is guaranteed.
  • the packaging according to the invention can also be packaged in a high Speed running production process can be used at the same time the described advantage of the non-slip Item combination can be achieved in the position of use.
  • the bulge is caused by several different merging Volumes formed.
  • assembled objects indicate these in their layered state intended for packaging a very complicated outer contour in combination, through several different volumes is reproduced as a negative in the film to be bulged.
  • packaging is on the edge in front of the Joining edge molded in circumferential heel.
  • plastic films of the packaging preferably exist made of transparent plastic. This is especially true for the plastic film that defines the front cover.
  • the rear plastic film covering the back of the packaging forms, but can also consist of colored plastic.
  • the bulge or profiling of a plastic film is thus such that even a complicated, for example compound Item in the packaging arrangement of this Foil is covered so that all of the packaging is on top or surfaces accessible on the sides are scanned by the film will.
  • packaging 1 is for storage, Transport, storage and presentation of an object 2 shown.
  • This item is a wet shaver 3 with an associated holder 4, in which the shaver 3 is attached, as well as with a dispenser 5 for razor blade units for the wet shaver 3.
  • the box-shaped Dispenser 5 is in a slot-like recess in the Base part of the holder 4 inserted.
  • the packaging 1 consists of two plastic films 6, 6 ' transparent material, which lie against each other and on the edge are attached to each other. This attachment can, for example done by gluing. As shown in FIG. 2, the a plastic film 6, the substantially flat rear wall of the Packing 1, while the other plastic film 6 'is bulbous is and serves to accommodate the object 2.
  • the rear plastic film 6 is essentially perfect just trained.
  • a box 7 is arranged, which is just on the rear plastic film 6 is present and serves to include product information.
  • the object 2 is, as stated, between the two plastic films 6, 6 'of the packaging 1 held. To slip to prevent the object, it is held in such a way that it is supported on all sides.
  • the Plastic film 6 is an unshaped, essentially flat blank.
  • the plastic film 6 ' has a bulge, which in essentially congruent to the surface contours, in Packaging layer seen from above and the strings follows.
  • the Parts become essentially rattle-free and, above all, immovable held in their positions when between the at the points 9 glued foils are introduced.
  • Appropriate Tolerances or model variations can be dealt with essentially circumferential paragraph 8 in the film 6 'balanced will.
  • Plastic films 6 'profiled in this way can be easily produced by deep drawing.
