Definitions

  • the invention relates to a packaging means for elongated Objects, in particular for ampoules, according to the generic term from claim 1.
  • the usually very fragile For example, items must be in a box are stored individually and must not be mutually exclusive touch.
  • the use of corrugated material strips has therefore long been known and used for such purposes.
  • the receiving compartments in cross section as honeycombs open upwards.
  • packaging materials integrated in a box are, for example in FR-A 1 049 050 or in CH-A 263 453 described.
  • the advantage of the open honeycomb is that the ampoules are inserted from above and that the individual ampoules are clamped.
  • a disadvantage of this known packaging means however, in that the ampoules are not in the axial direction are supported. For blows and bumps are therefore straight the sensitive ampoule skewers are exposed to high loads, which often leads to an ampoule break.
  • a support shoulder is created in the axial direction that the object can support.
  • the middle section can be curved or angled. In both Cases can be a pinching, pincer-like detection of the Reach objects.
  • Both side walls are preferred a receiving compartment symmetrically with such a central section trained, but it would be axially stable storage also sufficient, a central section only on one side wall to provide.
  • a support shoulder of sufficient depth is particularly easy achieve well by the fact that the compartment between the both side walls has a bottom, the width of the Area of the middle section is smaller than the width in Area of the end sections. In extreme cases, they could Middle sections practically converge in the area of the floor.
  • the storage compartment can be between the two Side walls in the plane of the wave crests a fill opening have, whose width in the region of the central sections is greater than the width in the area of the end sections. This measure helps to insert the To lighten objects from above somewhat, so no too great resistance must be overcome.
  • the width of the The filling opening could also be the same as the width between the two end sections.
  • the Middle sections through a folded edge in two in one blunt Surfaces inclined at an angle to each other are divided, whereby in the area of the middle sections the receiving compartment approximately has hexagonal cross section.
  • the ampoule is on this Holds in a line at four points. If the elongated object itself a polygonal cross section has, it could also be appropriate, the middle section to be designed as a curved wall section, so that in in any case, the elongated object is only in line.
  • the end sections are advantageously offset from the central section by an incision. In certain cases, however, an intermediate space could also be provided between the central section and the end sections.
  • a simple and expedient production is achieved in that the material strip extends in an angular manner in the area of the end sections, for example at right angles in a meandering manner.
  • the advantages according to the invention could also be achieved, for example, with a sinusoidal strip of material.
  • the packaging means can be connected directly to a wall section of a box, for example to the bottom section. However, it is also conceivable to design the packaging means as a separate packaging insert which is subsequently placed in a box. In such a case, the wavy material strip would be stabilized with a carrier section.
  • the invention also relates to a method for filling a Packaging means according to the invention by the features is characterized in claim 9.
  • the individual wave crests can always be in layers Dodge the direction towards the adjacent tray, in which is currently not inserted.
  • Place items sequentially in the trays.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show the structure of a packaging insert 1, which consists of an elongated strip of material 3 Cardboard, plastic or from a laminate is formed. At the illustrated embodiment has the packaging insert over a total of five compartments 4, each through Spaces 5 are separated from each other. Is completed the material strip through an end wall 12 or 12 ', which is loose in the box on the side wall of the box is present.
  • the dash-dotted lines in FIG. 1 represent fold edges 13 represents, while on the solid lines 14 and 15 of the material strips is separated by an incision.
  • the Folded edges and incisions divide the flat material strip when erecting in the configuration according to Figure 2 in individual wall sections.
  • Each storage compartment 4 is laterally a total of one Side wall 6 and 6 'limited.
  • the side walls are below connected by a bottom 9.
  • the gaps 5 form the actual waves with the wave crests or Top sides 11.
  • Each side wall 6 or 6 ' is divided into the two end sections 7 and 7 'and the intermediate Middle section 8.
  • the middle sections 8 are in the present embodiment angled outwards, which is particularly evident from FIG. 4.
  • Each middle section 8 is defined by a folded edge 13 or divided by cuts 14 into two surfaces 16, 16 ', which converge at an obtuse angle ⁇ . Without that pre-marked division into two areas would be the Bend the middle section 8 in an arc. Obviously the cross-section of the Enlarged compartments, in the present case by forming an approximately hexagonal cross section.
  • Figure 3 shows the arrangement of the packaging insert 1 according to Figure 2 in a box 17 made from a single blank can be made of the same material as the packaging insert.
  • the deposit will be advantageous immediately during the manufacture of the box with the box bottom 18 glued.
  • the box has the two Long side walls 19 and 19 ', the two transverse side walls 20 and 20 'and via a hinged hinged lid 22, which with an insertion tongue 23 is provided.
  • the packaging interior is on the side protected by the dust flaps 21 and 21 '.
  • the filling process is also shown schematically in FIG shown.
  • the individual ampoules 2 are each simultaneously in a first layer 24 and in a second layer 25 inserted.
  • the first row 24 is from the left seen to the right, the first, the third and the fifth Storage compartment filled.
  • the wave crests 11 can each in the direction of the arrow x towards the empty receiving compartment dodge.
  • the second layer 25 is then inserted, the second and fourth compartments are also filled become. Again, the wave crests can dodge the already filled compartments.
  • a simultaneous it is not possible to insert them in all of the compartments possible because the width B4 of an ampoule is larger than the width B1 of the receiving openings.
