Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Klappschachtel für Zigaretten, bestehend aus einem Schachtelteil, aus einem Deckel, der im Bereich einer Deckel-Rückwand mit einer Schachtel-Rückwand schwenkbar verbunden ist und aus einem innerhalb des Schachtelteils angeordneten, aus dem Schachtelteil mit einem oberen Bereich herausragenden Kragen, der aus Kragen-Vorderwand und aus Kragen-Seitenlappen besteht, wobei zwischen Kragen-Vorderwand und Kragen-Seitenlappen Kragen-Faltkanten angeordnet sind mit einer C-Stanzung zur Bildung eines seitwärts gerichteten Vorsprungs. Eine solche Schachtel ist z.B. aus DE-A-3037109 bekannt.The invention relates to a folding box for cigarettes, consisting of a Box part, consisting of a lid, which in the area of a lid rear wall with a Box rear wall is pivotally connected and from within the Box part arranged, from the box part with an upper area outstanding collar, the collar front wall and collar side tabs there is, between the collar front wall and collar side tabs Collar folded edges are arranged with a C-cut to form a sideways directed projection. Such a box is e.g. known from DE-A-3037109.

Zum standardmäßigen Aufbau einer Klappschachtel bzw. Hinge-Lid-Packung gehört ein Kragen, der üblicherweise aus einem separaten Zuschnitt aus dünnem Karton besteht. Der Kragen ist dabei U-förmig gefaltet, derart, dass Kragen-Seitenlappen an der Innenseite der Klappschachtel, nämlich an Seitenwänden des Schachtelteils anliegen.For the standard structure of a hinged box or hinge-lid pack includes a collar that is usually made from a separate blank of thin Cardboard consists. The collar is folded in a U-shape, such that collar side tabs on the inside of the hinged box, namely on the side walls of the Fit part of the box.

In der Praxis ist zu beobachten, dass häufig eine korrekte, spaltfreie Anlage der Kragen-Seitenlappen an den zugeordneten Seitenwänden nicht gegeben ist. Dieser Mangel tritt insbesondere dann auf, wenn der Packungsinhalt, nämlich ein Zigarettenblock - in einen Innenzuschnitt eingehüllte Zigarettengruppe - aufgrund In practice it can be observed that the correct, gap-free installation of the Collar side tabs on the associated side walls is not given. This deficiency occurs especially when the package contents, namely Cigarette block - cigarette group wrapped in an inner blank - due to

Further details of the invention are explained below with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. It shows:
Fig. 1
A hinged box with the lid open in front view,

Klappschachteln bestehen üblicherweise aus Schachtelteil 10 und Deckel 11. Beide sind miteinander verbunden über eine Gelenklinie 12, die eine Schachtelrückwand 13 mit einer Deckel-Rückwand verbindet. Zum Schachtelteil 10 gehören weiterhin eine Schachtel-Vorderwand 15 und Schachtel-Seitenwände 16. Letztere bestehen jeweils aus zwei einander überdeckenden Seitenlappen 17 und 18.Hinged boxes usually consist of box part 10 and Cover 11. Both are connected to one another Hinge line 12, the box back 13 with a lid back combines. The box part 10 also includes one Box front wall 15 and box side walls 16. The latter consist of two overlapping side tabs 17 and 18.

Im Schachtelteil 10 ist ein Kragen 19 positioniert. Dieser besteht aus einem gesonderten, wie die Klappschachtel im übrigen, aus dünnem Karton. Der Kragen 19 bildet drei Bereiche, nämlich eine mittige Kragen-Vorderwand und an diese zu beiden Seiten anschließende Kragen-Seitenlappen 21, 22.A collar 19 is positioned in the box part 10. This consists of a separate, like the hinged box in the remaining, from thin cardboard. The collar 19 forms three areas namely a central collar front wall and this to both Collar side flaps 21, 22 adjoining the sides.

Zur Positionierung des Kragens 19 im Schachtelteil 10 sind die Kragen-Seitenlappen 21, 22 in eine Position quer zur Kragen-Vorderwand gefaltet. Es entstehen so Kragen-Faltkanten 23, 24, die mit frontseitigen, aufrechten Packungskanten korrespondieren. Die Kragen-Vorderwand 20 ist mit einem unteren Teilbereich innenseitig an der Schachtel-Vorderwand 15 befestigt, insbesondere durch Klebung. Die Schachtel-Seitenlappen 21, 22 liegen innenseitig an den zugeordneten Schachtel-Seitenwänden 16 an, und zwar an dem innenliegenden Seitenlappen 17. To position the collar 19 in the box part 10 are the Collar side tabs 21, 22 in a position transverse to the collar front wall folded. This creates collar-folded edges 23, 24, the ones with front, upright packaging edges correspond. The collar front wall 20 is with a lower one Partial area on the inside of the box front wall 15 attached, especially by gluing. The box side tabs 21, 22 lie on the inside on the assigned Box side walls 16 on the inside Side tabs 17.

Der Kragen 19 ist so gestaltet, daß auf die Kragen-Seitenlappen 21, 22 Rückstellkräfte des Materials ausgeübt werden, die eine elastische Andrückkraft auf die Kragen-Seitenlappen 21, 22 zur Anlage derselben an den Schachtel-Seitenwänden 16 ausüben. Zu diesem Zweck sind die Kragen-Faltkanten 23, 24 entsprechend gestaltet.The collar 19 is designed so that on the collar side tabs 21, 22 restoring forces of the material are exerted, the one elastic pressing force on the collar side tabs 21, 22 for Exercise the same on the box side walls 16. To the collar folding edges 23, 24 are corresponding for this purpose designed.

Wie insbesondere aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich, sind die Kragen-Faltkanten 23, 24 einerseits durch Stanzschnitte definiert und andererseits durch Prägungen bzw. Rillungen im Material. Die Prägung bzw. Rillung, nämlich der stanzschnittfreie Bereich der Kragen-Faltkanten 23, 24 bewirkt die Rückstellkräfte.As can be seen in particular from FIG. 2, the collar fold edges are 23, 24 defined on the one hand by punch cuts and on the other hand through embossing or scoring in the material. The Embossing or creasing, namely the area of the die cut free area Collar folded edges 23, 24 cause the restoring forces.

In einem oberen Bereich jeder Kragen-Faltkante 23, 24 ist ein Stanzschnitt 25 von begrenzter Länge gebildet. Er schließt an eine im wesentlichen geradlinige Stanzung mit bogenförmigen Enden, also eine C-Stanzung 26. Diese definiert einen im Bereich der Kragen-Faltkanten 23, 24 abstehenden Vorsprung 27, der als "Deckelbremse" zur Fixierung des Deckels 11 in Schließstellung dient.In an upper area of each collar folding edge 23, 24 there is a Die cut 25 of limited length is formed. He connects an essentially straight punch with arcuate Ends, i.e. a C-punching 26. This defines one in Region of the collar folded edges 23, 24 projecting projection 27, the as "lid brake" for fixing the lid 11 in Serves the closed position.

Nach unten folgt auf die C-Stanzung 26 eine Prägung bzw. Rillung 28. Bei dieser handelt es sich um eine übliche Materialverformung, die vorzugsweise an der Außenseite des Kragens 19 angebracht wird. Die Rillung 28 endet mit einem geringen Abstand unterhalb der C-Stanzung 26. Bei der Positionierung des Kragens 19 im Schachtelteil 10 ergibt sich, daß aufgrund der gewählten Abmessungen die Rillung 28 vollständig im Schachtelteil verschwindet bzw. mit einem kleinen oberen Bereich über eine Schließkante 29 des Schachtelteils hinwegragt.An embossing or C stamping 26 follows downward Creasing 28. This is a common one Material deformation, which is preferably on the outside of the Collar 19 is attached. The groove 28 ends with a small distance below the C-punching 26. At the The collar 19 is positioned in the box part 10, that due to the selected dimensions, the groove 28th disappears completely in the box part or with a small upper area over a closing edge 29 of Box part protrudes.

Die Besonderheit besteht darin, daß im oberen, bei geöffnetem Deckel 11 sichtbaren Teil des Kragens 19 eine scharfkantige, im Querschnitt exakt rechtwinklige Kragen-Faltkante 23, 24 ausgebildet ist. In diesem Bereich werden nur geringe Rückstellkräfte auf die Kragen-Seitenlappen 21, 22 ausgeübt. Im unteren, verdeckten Bereich entsteht aufgrund der Rillung 28 eine Rundkante 30 als Abschnitt der Kragen-Faltkante 23, 24. In diesem Bereich werden größere, seitwärtsgerichtete Rückstellkräfte auf die Kragen-Seitenlappen 21, 22 ausgeübt. The peculiarity is that in the upper, when open Cover 11 visible part of the collar 19 a sharp-edged, in Cross section of exactly right-angled collar folding edge 23, 24 is trained. In this area, only minor Restoring forces exerted on the collar side tabs 21, 22. in the lower, concealed area arises due to the creasing 28 a round edge 30 as a portion of the collar folding edge 23, 24. In this area will be larger, sideways Restoring forces exerted on the collar side tabs 21, 22.

Eine seitwärtsgerichtete Vorspannung der Kragen-Seitenlappen 21, 22 ist insbesondere für eine exakte Positionierung des Kragens 19 innerhalb des Schachtelteils 10 von Bedeutung, wenn an der Innenseite der Schachtel-Seitenwände 16 Vorsprünge 31 gebildet sind zur Abstützung einer unteren Kragenkante 32 auf diesem Vorsprung 31. Der Vorsprung 31 ist zweckmäßigerweise nach Maßgabe von US 4,216,898 ausgebildet und kann nach den Vorschlägen von EP 547 449 hergestellt werden. Durch die seitwärtsgerichteten Rückstellkräfte im Bereich der Kragen-Seitenlappen 21, 22 ist sichergestellt, daß diese mit den Kragenkanten 32 zuverlässig auf den Vorsprüngen 31 abgestützt und damit in einer exakten Position fixiert sind.A sideways bias of the collar side tabs 21, 22 is particularly for an exact positioning of the Collar 19 within the box part 10 of importance if 16 projections 31 on the inside of the box side walls are formed to support a lower collar edge 32 this projection 31. The projection 31 is expedient trained in accordance with US 4,216,898 and can according to the Proposals are made by EP 547 449. Through the sideways restoring forces in the area of the collar side flaps 21, 22 ensures that this with the Collar edges 32 are reliably supported on the projections 31 and are thus fixed in an exact position.

Der Kragen 19 kann trotz der besonderen Ausgestaltung der Kragen-Faltkanten 23, 24 in einem einzigen Arbeitsgang komplett hergestellt werden. Werkzeuge für Stanzungen sind in diesem Fall auf einer gemeinsamen Walze durch Prägewerkzeuge ersetzt. The collar 19 can despite the special design of the Collar folding edges 23, 24 complete in a single operation getting produced. Tools for punching are in this Case on a common roller replaced by stamping tools.
