Definitions

  • the invention relates to a packaging in the form of an outer wrapping made of thin or low-strength packaging material, in particular paper, for forming a bundle pack containing a group of individual cigarette packs, the outer wrapping having recesses for making markings in the region of the end faces or bottom surfaces which has cigarette packs (known from EP-A-0 519 257).
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing blanks for the outer wrapping of such packaging.
  • the invention has for its object to propose packaging, in particular packs for cigarette packs, in which the outer wrapper consists of an inexpensive material, in particular paper, but nevertheless there is sufficient resistance to (tensile) stresses in the material.
  • the packaging according to the invention is characterized by local reinforcements, at least in the region of the recesses, which increase the tear resistance of the outer casing.
  • the idea of the invention therefore consists in providing packaging material which has a low tear strength with local reinforcements, specifically in the area of increased tear loads. In this way, inexpensive packaging material can be used on the one hand, but the durability of the packaging can be guaranteed on the other hand.
  • the reinforcements are designed as tear-resistant, narrow reinforcement strips which are arranged at a distance from one another and extend over the entire length of the blank.
  • the reinforcement strips are preferably made of tear-resistant plastic and are attached to the inside of the outer casing by gluing or thermal sealing.
  • a large-area reinforcement label can be attached locally to the outer wrapping by gluing or sealing.
  • this reinforcement label is located in the region of the recesses, these being preferably surrounded all around by the reinforcement label provided with corresponding recesses.
  • the reinforcements are attached to the continuous material web or to the blank for the outer covering after it has been separated from the material web.
  • the attachment of the reinforcements is integrated in the continuous conveying or manufacturing process of the blanks.
  • Each elongated, cuboid pack of packs (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2) contains ten cuboid packs of cigarettes 10. These are arranged in a special formation, namely in two rows, such that narrow, elongated side surfaces 11 of adjacent packs of cigarettes 10 in a row. Smaller end faces 12 or bottom faces 13 are directed sideways or upward or downward, in any case lie without contact with neighboring cigarette packs 10.
  • the group of cigarette packs 10 arranged in this way is surrounded by an outer wrapper 14.
  • this consists of paper, but can also consist of other material, such as plastic film or thin cardboard.
  • the group of cigarette packs 10 is from the Outer casing 14 completely surrounded.
  • the outer wrapper 14 consists of a rectangular blank (FIG. 5, FIG. 6, FIG. 8) which is separated from a continuously supplied material web of a corresponding width and is fed to a packaging station.
  • the blanks for the outer covering 14 are provided with reinforcements which locally increase the tensile strength, in particular in areas of increased stress on the outer covering 14.
  • a plurality of reinforcing strips 15, 16, 17, 18 are provided, which extend in the conveying direction of a material web (not shown) for the blanks of the outer wrappings 14 or in the transport direction thereof.
  • the reinforcement strips 15..18 can consist of a suitable material, in particular of a plastic with increased tear resistance.
  • the reinforcements can preferably be connected to the inside of the outer covering 14 or the continuous material web over the entire surface by gluing or by thermal sealing. The connection is such that there is a composite effect with the reinforcements with regard to the durability of the packaging or the outer wrapper 14.
  • the narrow reinforcement strips 15..18 are arranged at equal distances from one another in the exemplary embodiment mentioned, namely in accordance with the width of the cigarette packs 10.
  • a total of four reinforcement strips 15..18 running in parallel are provided here. They each extend in the levels between adjacent groups of two of the cigarette packs 10.
  • the outer casing 14 is provided with windows or recesses 19. These are positioned so that the end faces 12 or the bottom surfaces 13 of all the cigarette packs 10 are in the Extend area of a recess 19. As a result, markings, in particular control stamps, can be applied to the exposed end faces 12 or bottom faces 13 of the cigarette packs 10 with the outer wrapper 14 closed.
  • the recesses 19 are arranged in the region of a side wall 20 of the outer casing 14, namely over the entire length thereof.
  • the recesses 19 are delimited from one another by a continuous longitudinal web 21 in the longitudinal direction of the side wall 20 and by transverse webs 22.
  • the latter extend from a large-area upper wall 23 to an opposite lower wall 24.
  • the recesses 19 accordingly extend to this upper wall 23 or to the lower wall 24.
  • the reinforcing strips 15..18 are arranged in such a way that they run in the region of the transverse webs 22, specifically in the middle of the latter.
  • the crosspieces 22 are particularly secured against destruction due to increased tensile stresses. These can arise in particular during the packaging process if the blank for the outer wrapper 14 is kept ready in a plane transverse to the direction of transport of the cigarette packs 10 to be wrapped and is folded around them in a U-shape.
  • the blank for the outer wrapper 14 is positioned so that the group of cigarette packs 10 are conveyed with their end faces 12 or bottom faces 13 against the side wall 20.
  • the transverse webs 22 are exposed to increased tensile forces which are absorbed by the reinforcing strips 15. 18. These extend over the full dimension of the blank for the outer wrapping 14 in the transport direction thereof, so that the finished pack is wrapped by the reinforcing strips 15. 18 (FIG. 1 or FIG. 2).
  • the reinforcement strip 15 is also designed as a tear strip with a grip tab 25 at one end.
  • Fig. 7 and 8 show an alternative for a local reinforcement of the blank for the outer covering 14 in accordance with the loads that occur or in accordance with the material weaknesses given due to the design of the pack.
  • a material reinforcement surrounding the recesses 19 is provided. It is a strip-shaped reinforcement label 26 made of paper or plastic film with increased tear strength. The reinforcement label 26 is preferably attached to the inside of the blank for the outer wrapper 14 by gluing or thermal sealing.
  • the reinforcement label 26 is designed as a material strip which extends across the full dimension of the blank for the outer covering 14 transversely to the conveying direction thereof, that is to say transversely to the direction of a material web for the blanks.
  • the reinforcement label 26 not only covers the full surface of the side wall 20, but also side flaps 27 adjoining both ends. These are part of a side strip 28 or 29 of the blank for forming end walls 34 of the pack of packs.
  • the reinforcement label 26 also extends across the side wall 20 in width. Edge strips 30, 31 of the reinforcement label 26 run in the area of the adjoining top wall 23 and bottom wall 24 or in the area of longitudinal tabs 32, 33 of the side strips 28, 29 Reinforcement label 26 covers, so that the package pack receives increased stability.
  • the blanks for the outer casing 14 reinforced in the manner described are produced in a special way.
  • the blanks are made from a continuous material web divided by transverse separating cuts.
  • the reinforcement strips 15..18 are previously continuously applied to the material web during transport of the material web and connected to it. After cutting from the material web, the blanks thus finished can be fed in the known, usual manner by continuing the transport in the same direction to a packaging station of the packaging machine.
  • the reinforcement namely the reinforcement label 26
  • the reinforcement is applied during a transport of the blank directed transversely to the conveying direction of the material web. This sideways or transverse transport of the blank takes place in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the reinforcement label 26. This is applied to the blank during the transverse movement as part of a continuous strip of material and separated from the strip of material in the correct position.
  • the cutouts 19 are stamped in this exemplary embodiment. The punching accordingly detects the reinforcement label 26 and the side wall 20 covered by it. As a result, the recesses 19 are exactly surrounded by the appropriately designed reinforcement strip 26.
  • the blanks according to FIG. 5 on the one hand and according to FIG. 6 and FIG. 8 on the other hand differ in terms of their construction and folds in the region of end walls 34 of the packs of packs.
  • a strip of material adjoins the free side of the lower wall 24 to form a side wall 35 opposite the side wall 20.
  • This is connected in the finished packaging to a connecting strip 36 (by gluing) which is formed on the free side of the top wall 23.
  • the connecting strip 36 lies against the inside of the side wall 35 (FIG. 1).
  • the end walls 34 are designed such that the side tabs 27 adjoining the side wall 20 and the side tabs 37 adjoining the side wall 35 are located on the inside, namely directly on the contents of the package. Then the inner longitudinal flap 32 is folded, in an envelope-like fold with diagonal or oblique folding lines 38.
  • the longitudinal flap 33 serves as the outer cover, which is formed by separating cuts 39, 40 from the adjacent side flap 27 or from a continuation of the connecting strip 36 Folding tab 41 is separated.
  • the outer longitudinal tab 33 thus serves as a cover tab that completely covers the surface of the end wall 34.
  • a corresponding folding geometry is provided in the embodiment according to FIG. 6 or 8.
  • the outer longitudinal tab 33 is located here at one end of the side strip 28, 29.
  • the outer longitudinal tab 33 is separated from the adjacent side tab 27 by a separating cut 42.
  • the outer longitudinal tab 33 completely covers the end face 34.
  • the connecting strip 36 is connected to the side wall 35 in this embodiment of the blank.
