Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Verpackungsbehälter mit einem Aufhänger nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Ein derartiger Verpackungsbehälter mit einem Aufhänger ist beispielsweise aus der US-PS 4 349 102 bekannt geworden. Der bekannte Verpackungsbehälter mit einem Aufhänger hat den Nachteil, daß sein aus Kunststoff bestehender Verpackungsbehälter relativ aufwendig herzustellen ist, und zum Lesen von auf seinen Seitenflächen oder seiner Rückseite aufgedruckten Informationen von einem Träger abgenommen werden muß. Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen derartigen Verpackungsbehälter mit einem Aufhänger derart weiterzubilden, daß der Verpackungsbehälter aus einem umweltverträglicheren Material hergestellt werden kann, wobei gleichzeitig eine einfache Montage des Aufhängers gegeben sein soll. Weiterhin sollte es möglich sein, auf dem Verpackungsbehälter aufgedruckte Informationen ablesen zu können, ohne den Verpackungsbehälter von einem Träger abnehmen zu müssen.The invention relates to a packaging container with a hanger according to the preamble of claim 1. Such a packaging container with a hanger has become known, for example, from US Pat. No. 4,349,102. The known packaging container with a hanger has the disadvantage that its plastic packaging container is relatively expensive to manufacture and has to be removed from a carrier in order to read information printed on its side surfaces or its back. The invention has for its object to develop such a packaging container with a hanger such that the packaging container can be made from a more environmentally friendly material, while at the same time a simple assembly of the hanger should be given.

Beschreibung der AusführungsbeispieleDescription of the embodiments

Der Verpackungsbehälter ist eine Faltschachtel 10, die aus einem Zuschnitt 11 aus Pappe oder Karton besteht. Die Faltschachtel 10 hat die Form eines Quaders mit zwei schmalen Seitenwänden 12 und 13, einer Vorderwand 14 und einer Rückwand 15. Eine Längslasche 16 verbindet die schmale Seitenwand 12 mit der Vorderwand 14. An den Querenden der Seitenwände 12 und 13 sind schmale Faltlappen 18, und an der Vorder-14 und Rückwand 15 breite Verschlußlappen 19 und 20 angeformt. Die Faltlappen 18 an den Seitenwänden 12 und 13 haben eine geringere Höhe als die Verschlußlappen 19 und 20 an der Vorder-14 und Rückwand 15, deren Höhe der Breite der schmalen Seitenwände 12 und 13 entspricht. Zwei gegenüberliegende, einen Verschluß an einem Ende der Faltschachtel 10 bildende Verschlußlappen 20 haben je einen weitgehend V-förmig ausgebildeten Ausschnitt 22. Der Ausschnitt 22 teilt die Verschlußlappen 20 in je einen rechten und linken Flügel. Die Tiefe der Ausschnitte 22 der Verschlußlappen 20 beträgt mindestens deren halbe Höhe, so daß beim Übereinanderfalten der beiden Verschlußlappen 20 ein Loch 23 verbleibt.The packaging container is a folding box 10, which consists of a blank 11 made of cardboard or cardboard. The folding box 10 has the shape of a cuboid with two narrow side walls 12 and 13, a front wall 14 and a rear wall 15. A longitudinal flap 16 connects the narrow side wall 12 to the front wall 14. At the transverse ends of the side walls 12 and 13 there are narrow folding flaps 18, and wide flaps 19 and 20 formed on the front 14 and rear wall 15. The folding tabs 18 on the side walls 12 and 13 have a lower height than the closing tabs 19 and 20 on the front 14 and rear wall 15, the height of which corresponds to the width of the narrow side walls 12 and 13. Two opposing flaps 20 forming a closure at one end of the folding box 10 each have a largely V-shaped cutout 22. The cutout 22 divides the flaps 20 into right and left wings. The depth of the cutouts 22 of the flaps 20 is at least half their height, so that a hole 23 remains when the two flaps 20 are folded over one another.

In dem Loch 23 ist ein aus Kunststoff bestehender Aufhänger 25 verankert. Er wird in der Faltschachtel 10 befestigt, indem er zunächst in den Ausschnitt 22 eines der Verschlußlappen 20 eingeschoben wird, und anschließend beide Verschlußlappen 20 gegeneinander umgelegt werden, so daß die Verschlußlappen 20 einander überdecken, wobei der linke Flügel eines Verschlußlappens 20 den linken Flügel des anderen Verschlußlappens 20 überdeckt und der rechte Flügel des einen Verschlußlappens 20 unter dem rechten Flügel des anderen Verschlußlappens 20 liegt. Beide Verschlußlappen 20 sind miteinander verklebt.A hanger 25 made of plastic is anchored in the hole 23. It is fastened in the folding box 10 by first inserting it into the cutout 22 of one of the closure flaps 20, and then folding both closure flaps 20 against one another so that the closure flaps 20 overlap one another, the left wing of a closure flap 20 being the left wing of the covers other flap 20 and the right wing of one flap 20 is below the right wing of the other flap 20. Both flaps 20 are glued together.

Der Aufhänger 25 hat eine Aufhängeöse 26 und einen über einen Steg 27 mit diesem verbundenen Anker 28. Die Aufhängeöse 26 hat einen Längsschlitz 29 und mittig in diesem bogenförmige Aussparungen 31, die zusammen eine Aufhängeöffnung 32 bilden. Parallel zur Aufhängeöffnung 32 ist eine umlaufende Verstärkungsrippe 33 ausgebildet. Außerhalb der Verstärkungsrippe 33 hat die Aufhängeöse 26 vier Versteifungsrippen 34, deren Kanten 35 die Außenkontur der Verstärkungsrippe 33 tangieren. An die Aufhängeöse 26 schließt sich quer zu deren Längserstreckung der Steg 27 an, der einen symmetrisch kreuzförmigen Querschnitt hat. Am freien Ende des Stegs 27 hat der Anker 28 eine im wesentlichen kreisförmige Platte 36 mit zwei parallelen Kanten 37. Oberhalb der Platte 36 ist am Steg 27 ein Bund 40 angeordnet. Der Abstand zwischen dem Bund 40 und der Platte 36 entspricht mindestens der Dicke zweier Verschlußlappen 20, die zwischen der Platte 36 und dem Bund 40 angeordnet sind. Der Bund 40 hat eine rechteckige Auflagefläche 41, deren schmale Seiten 42 die Breite des Stegs 27 haben. Der Bund 40 dient als Eindrücksicherung für den Aufhänger 25 für den Fall, daß die kreisförmige Platte 36 unterhalb der schmalen Faltlappen 18 angeordnet ist. Die kreisförmige Platte 36 hat eine Auflagefläche 43, die größer ist als die Auflagefläche 41 des Bunds 40. Außerdem erleichtert eine möglichst kleine Auflagefläche 41 des Bunds 40 die Handhabung der Verschlußlappen 20 bei der Montage des Aufhängers 25 an der Faltschachtel 10.
An der Unterseite der Platte 36 sind zwei zueinander parallele Anschlagrippen 44 rechtwinklig zur Aufhängeöse 26 angeformt, die auch zum Entformen der Aufhängers 25 aus dessen Spritzwerkzeug dienen. Die Anschlagrippen 44 reichen von einer der Kanten 37 bis in die Mittelebene des Aufhängers 25. Für den Fall, daß die schmalen Faltlappen 18 unterhalb der kreisförmigen Platte 36 angeordnet sind, ist deren Höhe vorteilhafterweise so bemessen, daß die Faltlappen 18 seitlich bis an die Anschlagrippen 44 heranreichen, so daß beim Verdrehen der am Aufhänger 25 hängenden Faltschachtel 10 ein Druckpunkt überwunden werden muß. Aus funktionellen oder optischen Gründen können die den Auflageflächen gegenüberliegenden Flächen des Bunds 40 und der Platte 36 auch andersartig, zum Beispiel ballig ausgebildet sein.
Vorzugsweise sind in der Vorderwand 14 der Faltschachtel 10 Sichtfenster 46 ausgebildet, die wahlweise mit einer durchsichtigen Staubschutzfolie hinterlegt sind. Zum einfachen Öffnen der Faltschachtel 10 hat diese in ihrem unteren Bereich eine quer verlaufende Perforation 47.The hanger 25 has a suspension eye 26 and an anchor 28 connected to it via a web 27. The suspension eye 26 has a longitudinal slot 29 and in the center of this arcuate recesses 31, which together form a suspension opening 32. A circumferential reinforcing rib 33 is formed parallel to the suspension opening 32. Outside the reinforcing rib 33, the suspension eye 26 has four stiffening ribs 34, the edges 35 of which touch the outer contour of the reinforcing rib 33. The suspension eyelet 26 is adjoined transversely to the longitudinal extension thereof by the web 27, which has a symmetrically cruciform cross section. At the free end of the web 27, the armature 28 has an essentially circular plate 36 with two parallel edges 37. Above the plate 36, a collar 40 is arranged on the web 27. The distance between the collar 40 and the plate 36 corresponds at least to the thickness of two sealing tabs 20 which are arranged between the plate 36 and the collar 40. The collar 40 has a rectangular contact surface 41, the narrow sides 42 of which have the width of the web 27. The collar 40 serves as a pressure protection for the hanger 25 in the event that the circular plate 36 is arranged below the narrow folding tab 18. The circular plate 36 has a contact surface 43 which is larger than the contact surface 41 of the collar 40. In addition, the smallest possible contact surface 41 of the collar 40 facilitates the handling of the closure flaps 20 when the hanger 25 is mounted on the folding box 10.
On the underside of the plate 36, two mutually parallel stop ribs 44 are formed at right angles to the suspension eye 26, which also serve to demold the hanger 25 from its injection molding tool. The stop ribs 44 extend from one of the edges 37 to the central plane of the hanger 25. In the event that the narrow folding tabs 18 are arranged below the circular plate 36, the height of the latter is advantageously such that the folding tabs 18 laterally up to the stop ribs 44 reach so that a pressure point must be overcome when twisting the hanging box 10 hanging on the hanger 25. For functional or optical reasons, the surfaces of the collar 40 and the plate 36 opposite the bearing surfaces can also be designed differently, for example spherically.
Viewing windows 46 are preferably formed in the front wall 14 of the folding box 10 and are optionally backed with a transparent dust protection film. For easy opening of the folding box 10, the latter has a transverse perforation 47 in its lower region.

Bei einem zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel einer Faltschachtel 10a (Fig. 3), die sich besonders zur automatischen Herstellung eignet, sind die Längslasche 16a und die schmalen Seitenwände 12a und 13a des Zuschnitts 11a jeweils halb so breit wie die Vorderwand 14a bzw. die Rückwand 15a. Der der Vorderwand 15a zugeordnete Verschlußlappen 20a hat einen rechteckigen Ausschnitt 22a mit einer Breite B, dessen größte Tiefe mindestens die halbe Höhe des Verschlußlappens 20a beträgt. Zum Einführen eines Aufhängers 25a ist der Ausschnitt 22a an seiner oberen Seite V-förmig ausgeschnitten. Der andere Verschlußlappen 20b hat einen im wesentlichen V-förmigen Ausschnitt 22b, dessen größte Tiefe größer ist als die Tiefe des rechteckigen Ausschnitts 22a, und dessen Kontur insbesondere so gewählt ist, daß die kreisförmige Platte 36a des Aufhängers 25a bei geschlossener Faltschachtel 10a stets mit seitlichem Abstand zum Ausschnitt 22b angeordnet ist. Die beiden Faltlappen 18a haben im Ausführungsbeispiel annähernd die gleiche Höhe wie die Verschlußlappen 20a und 20b, wobei die dem Verschlußlappen 20a abgewandten Seiten der Faltlappen 18a schräg abgeschnitten sind, so daß sich die Platte 36a bei geschlossener Faltschachtel 10a drehen läßt, ohne die schmalen Faltlappen 18a zu berühren.In a second exemplary embodiment of a folding box 10a (FIG. 3), which is particularly suitable for automatic production, the longitudinal flap 16a and the narrow side walls 12a and 13a of the blank 11a are each half as wide as the front wall 14a and the rear wall 15a. The closure flap 20a associated with the front wall 15a has a rectangular cutout 22a with a width B, the greatest depth of which is at least half the height of the closure flap 20a. To insert a hanger 25a, the cutout 22a is cut out in a V-shape on its upper side. The other flap 20b has a substantially V-shaped cutout 22b, the greatest depth of which is greater than the depth of the rectangular cutout 22a, and the contour of which is chosen in particular such that the circular plate 36a of the hanger 25a with the folded box 10a always with a lateral one Distance to the cutout 22b is arranged. In the exemplary embodiment, the two folding flaps 18a have approximately the same height as the closing flaps 20a and 20b, the sides of the folding flaps 18a facing away from the closing flap 20a being cut off obliquely, so that the plate 36a can be rotated when the folding box 10a is closed, without the narrow folding flaps 18a to touch.

Der Kopf der Faltschachtel 10a wird verschlossen, indem die schmalen Faltlappen 18a übereinandergelegt und gegebenenfalls miteinander verklebt werden. Anschließend wird die Verschlußlasche 20a umgefaltet und mit den Faltlappen 18a verklebt. Dann wird der Aufhänger 25a in den Ausschnitt 22a der Verschlußlasche 20a eingeführt. Zuletzt wird die Verschlußlasche 20b auf die Verschlußlasche 20a umgefaltet und mit dieser verklebt.The head of the folding box 10a is closed by placing the narrow folding tabs 18a on top of one another and possibly gluing them together. The closure flap 20a is then folded over and glued to the folding tabs 18a. Then the hanger 25a is inserted into the cutout 22a of the locking tab 20a. Finally, the closure flap 20b is folded over onto the closure flap 20a and glued to it.

Der bei der Faltschachtel 10a verwendete Aufhänger 25a hat im Bereich seines Ankers 28a zwischen dem Bund 40a und der kreisförmigen Platte 36a zwei in etwa gleich hohe Abschnitte 48, 49, wovon der sich an den Bund 40a anschließende erste Abschnitt 48 einen U-förmigen Querschnitt mit zwei äußeren Führungsflächen 45 besitzt (Fig. 8) Insbesondere entspricht die Breite b des Abschnitts 48 mit dem U-förmigen Querschnitt der Breite B des Ausschnitts 22a des Verschlußlappens 20a. Der zweite Abschnitt 49, der der kreisförmigen Platte 36a zugewandt ist, hat einen halbschalenförmigen Querschnitt. Die Höhe des Abschnitts 49 entspricht mindestens der Dicke der beiden Verschlußlaschen 20a, 20b. Vorteilhafterweise ist dabei der Umfang der Halbschale, wie in der Fig. 9 dargestellt, größer als ein Halbkreis, wobei der äußere Durchmesser d der Halbschale kleiner oder gleich ist als die Breite b des Abschnitts 48.
Ergänzend wird darauf hingewiesen, daß der Querschnitt des Abschnitts 48 andersartig, insbesondere rechteckig ausgebildet sein kann.The hanger 25a used in the folding box 10a has in the region of its anchor 28a between the collar 40a and the circular plate 36a two sections 48, 49 of approximately the same height, of which the first section 48 adjoining the collar 40a has a U-shaped cross section has two outer guide surfaces 45 (FIG. 8). In particular, the width b of the section 48 with the U-shaped cross section corresponds to the width B of the cutout 22a of the closure flap 20a. The second section 49, which faces the circular plate 36a, has a half-shell-shaped cross section. The height of section 49 corresponds at least to the thickness of the two locking tabs 20a, 20b. Advantageously, the circumference of the half-shell, as shown in FIG. 9, is larger than a semicircle, the outer diameter d of the half-shell being less than or equal to the width b of section 48.
In addition, it is pointed out that the cross section of section 48 can be designed differently, in particular rectangular.

Bei der Montage des Aufhängers 25a in den Verschlußlappen 20a wird der Abschnitt 48 mit dem U-förmigen Querschnitt in den Ausschnitt 22a eingeführt, so daß die Aufhängeöse 26a mit ihren breiten Seiten parallel zu der Vorderwand 14a bzw. Rückwand 15a, und die Führungsflächen 45 formschlüssig im Ausschnitt 22a angeordnet sind. Dadurch wird ein Verdrehen des Aufhängers 25a in der Faltschachtel 10a verhindert, und ein einfaches Einfädeln der Aufhängeöffnung 32a auf einen Bügel an dem Verkaufsstand ermöglicht. Sobald die Faltschachtel 10a dort aufgehängt ist, wird sie nach unten gezogen, wodurch der Aufhänger 25a nach oben rutscht und der halbschalenförmige Abschnitt 49 in den Bereich des Ausschnitts 22 gelangt. Da der Durchmesser d des Abschnitts 49 kleiner oder gleich ist als die Breite b des Abschnitts 22a, läßt sich nun die Faltschachtel 10a am Aufhänger 25a in der gewünschten Weise drehen.When mounting the hanger 25a in the closure flap 20a, the section 48 with the U-shaped cross section is inserted into the cutout 22a, so that the suspension eye 26a with its broad sides parallel to the front wall 14a or rear wall 15a, and the guide surfaces 45 are form-fitting are arranged in the cutout 22a. This will cause twisting of the hanger 25a in the folding box 10a is prevented, and a simple threading of the hanging opening 32a onto a hanger at the sales stand enables. As soon as the folding box 10a is suspended there, it is pulled downward, as a result of which the hanger 25a slides upward and the half-shell-shaped section 49 reaches the area of the cutout 22. Since the diameter d of the section 49 is less than or equal to the width b of the section 22a, the folding box 10a can now be rotated on the hanger 25a in the desired manner.

In Abwandlung zu den beiden oben beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen einteiliger Faltschachteln 10 und 10a ist das dritte Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 10 als zweiteilige Faltschachtel 50 mit einem Grundkörper 51 und einem Deckel 52 ausgebildet. Zum Verankern des Aufhängers 25 haben die als Verschlußlappen dienenden Endwände 53 und 54 des Grundkörpers 51 und des Deckels 52 V-förmige Ausschnitte 55 und 56 mit ausgerundetem Grund, die nach dem Aufsetzen des Deckels 52 auf den Grundkörper 51 ein Loch freilassen. In diesem Loch ist der Aufhänger 25 wie beim zuerst beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel eingesetzt, wobei jedoch die Endwand 54 des Deckels 52 die Endwand 53 des Grundkörpers 51 vollständig deckt.In a modification of the two exemplary embodiments of one-part folding boxes 10 and 10a described above, the third exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 10 is designed as a two-part folding box 50 with a base body 51 and a cover 52. For anchoring the hanger 25, the end walls 53 and 54 of the base body 51 and the cover 52 serving as sealing flaps have V-shaped cutouts 55 and 56 with a rounded base, which leave a hole free after the cover 52 has been placed on the base body 51. In this hole, the hanger 25 is inserted as in the first embodiment described, but the end wall 54 of the cover 52 completely covers the end wall 53 of the base body 51.

Ergänzend wird darauf hingewiesen, daß nicht in jedem der den Verschluß bildenden Verschlußlappen 20 oder Endwänden 53 und 54 ein V-förmiger Ausschnitt 22, 55 oder 56 angeordnet sein muß. Der zweite Ausschnitt 22, 55 oder 56 kann entfallen, wenn der zweite Verschlußlappen beziehungsweise die zweite Endwand gegenüber dem ersten Verschlußlappen beziehungsweise der ersten Endwand kürzer ist, so daß diese nur bis zum Aufhänger 25 reicht und mit ihrer
Vorderkante das Loch für den Anker 28 begrenzt.In addition, it is pointed out that a V-shaped cutout 22, 55 or 56 need not be arranged in each of the closure flaps 20 or end walls 53 and 54 forming the closure. The second cutout 22, 55 or 56 can be omitted if the second closing flap or the second end wall is shorter than the first closing flap or the first end wall, so that it only extends to the hanger 25 and with it
Front edge of the hole for the anchor 28 is limited.

Weiterhin ist es denkbar, bei den Aufhängern 25, 25a auf den Steg 27 zu verzichten. In diesem Fall geht die Aufhängeöse 26 direkt in den Anker 28 über. Dadurch wird ein kompakterer und steiferer Aufhänger 25, 25a erzielt.Furthermore, it is conceivable to dispense with the web 27 in the hangers 25, 25a. In this case, the suspension eye 26 merges directly into the anchor 28. This results in a more compact and stiffer hanger 25, 25a.
