Im Vordergrund der Erfindung stehen Zigarettenpackungen des Typs Weichbecher in einer modifizierten Ausführung, nämlich vorzugsweise aus einem einzigen Zuschnitt aus Papier oder vergleichbarem Verpackungsmaterial. Zur Erhöhung der Formstabilität einer derartigen Packung ist diese mindestens in einem Bereich benachbart zu einer Stimwand mit einer ringsherum laufenden Mehrfachfaltung versehen, nämlich insbesondere einer Z-Faltung (US 4 508 218). Weiterhin kann eine derartige Zigarettenpackung im Bereich einer Bodenwand mit Materialverstärkungen versehen sein, nämlich einem doppellagigen Materialstreifen, aus dem entsprechend doppellagige Boden-Faltlappen der Bodenwand gebildet sind (US 5 762 186). In the foreground of the invention are cigarette packs of the soft cup type a modified version, namely preferably from a single blank Paper or comparable packaging material. To increase the dimensional stability of a such a pack is at least in an area adjacent to a bulkhead provided with a multiple fold running around, namely in particular a Z-fold (US 4,508,218). Furthermore, such a cigarette pack in Be provided in the area of a bottom wall with material reinforcements, namely a double-layer Strips of material, from which the corresponding double-layered floor-folding flap Bottom wall are formed (US 5 762 186).

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Packungen der vorgenannten oder ähnlicher Ausführung so auszugestalten, dass eine Verbesserung des äußeren Erscheinungsbildes und eine verbesserte Qualitätssicherung für den Packungsinhalt gewährleistet sind.The invention has for its object packs of the aforementioned or similar Design in such a way that an improvement of the external appearance and an improved quality assurance for the package contents are guaranteed.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist die erfindungsgemäße Packung dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass zwischen den durch Leim miteinander verbundenen Faltlappen einerseits und dem Packungsinhalt andererseits ein Abdecklappen angeordnet ist gegen die Übertragung von Leim auf den Packungsinhalt.To achieve this object, the pack according to the invention is characterized in that that between the folding flaps connected by glue on the one hand and the Package contents on the other hand a cover flap is arranged against the transmission of glue on the package contents.

Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass die Beleimung von Faltlappen der Packung, insbesondere die Beleimung von Boden-Faltlappen einer Bodenwand, die Gefahr in sich birgt, dass Leimpartikel auf den Packungsinhalt übertragen werden, insbesondere auf Endbereiche der zur Bodenwand der Packung benachbarten Zigaretten gegen Leimübertragung.The invention is based on the finding that the gluing of folding tabs Pack, in particular the gluing of bottom-folding flaps of a bottom wall, the There is a risk that glue particles may be transferred to the package contents, in particular to end areas of the cigarettes adjacent to the bottom wall of the pack against glue transfer.

Zweckmäßigerweise ist der Abdecklappen im Bereich der Bodenwand Teil des Zuschnitts, also mit diesem verbunden, und zwar vorzugsweise als Verlängerung bzw. Ergänzung oder Ansatz eines üblicherweise innenseitig positionierten Boden-Ecklappens. Dieser ist eine Fortsetzung einer der schmalen, aufrechten Seitenwände der Packung.The cover flap is expediently part of the cut in the region of the bottom wall, connected with it, preferably as an extension or supplement or approach of a floor corner flap which is usually positioned on the inside. This is a continuation of one of the narrow, upright side walls of the pack.

Bei einer Packung analog zu US 5 762 186 wird erfindungsgemäß so vorgegangen, dass der Abdecklappen Teil des doppellagigen Materialstreifens im Bereich der Bodenwand ist, jedoch nicht an der Verstärkung der Packung in desem Bereich teilnimmt. Vielmehr wird durch entsprechende Stanzschnitte ein Boden-Ecklappen geschaffen, dessen Länge der Breite des doppellagig zu faltenden Materialstreifens entspricht. Bei der fertigen Packung liegt dieser verlängerte Boden-Ecklappen an der Innenseite der Bodenwand an und bildet den Abdecklappen.In the case of a package analogous to US Pat. No. 5,762,186, the procedure according to the invention is as follows: that the cover flap is part of the double-layer material strip in the area of the bottom wall is, but does not participate in the reinforcement of the pack in its area. Rather, a floor corner flap is created by appropriate die cuts, whose length corresponds to the width of the double-layered material strip. at In the finished pack, this extended bottom corner flap lies on the inside of the Bottom wall and forms the cover flap.

Die in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Einzelheiten betreffen Weiterentwicklungen und Verbesserungen an (Zigaretten-)Packungen insbesondere in der Ausführung gemäß US 4 508 218 und US 5 762 186.The details shown in the drawings relate to further developments and Improvements to (cigarette) packs, in particular in the version according to US 4,508,218 and US 5,762,186.

Die in Fig. 1 perspektivisch dargestellte (Zigaretten-)Packung des Typs Weichbecher in modifizierter Ausführung besteht aus einem einzigen, einstückigen Zuschnitt (Fig. 7, Fig. 8). Der rechteckige Zuschnitt umgibt den Packungsinhalt (eine Gruppe von Zigaretten) derart, dass Vorderwand 10, Rückwand 11 und Seitenwände 12, 13 entstehen. Die Seitenwand 13 ist aus zwei randseitigen Seitenlappen 14, 15 gebildet, die einander teilweise überdecken, wobei der breitere Seitenlappen außen liegt und nahezu die Breite der Seitenwand 13 überdeckt. Die Seitenlappen 14, 15 sind durch Klebung miteinander verbunden, bei dem vorliegenden Beispiel durch eine Mehrzahl von Leimpunkten 16.The (cigarette) pack of the type soft cup shown in perspective in FIG modified version consists of a single, one-piece blank (Fig. 7, Fig. 8th). The rectangular blank surrounds the contents of the pack (a group of cigarettes) such that front wall 10, rear wall 11 and side walls 12, 13 are formed. The side wall 13 is formed from two edge-side flaps 14, 15, which partially overlap each other cover, with the wider side flap on the outside and almost the width the side wall 13 covers. The side tabs 14, 15 are glued together connected, in the present example by a plurality of glue points 16.

Oben bildet der Zuschnitt eine Stimwand 17. Gegenüber liegend befindet sich eine Bodenwand 18. Stimwand 17 und Bodenwand 18 sind durch mehrere einander teilweise überdeckende Faltlappen gebildet. Die Bodenwand 18 besteht aus Boden-Faltlappen, nämlich Boden-Längslappen 19 und 20 sowie Boden-Ecklappen 21, 22 andererseits. Die jeweils zapfenförmigen Bodenlängslappen 19, 20 sind mit der Vorderwand 10 einerseits und der Rückwand 11 andererseits verbunden. Die schmaleren Boden-Ecklappen 21, 22 sind mit der Seitenwand 13 andererseits verbunden bzw. Fortsetzungen derselben. Die Boden-Ecklappen 21, 22 bilden die Innenseite der Bodenwand 18, während die Boden-Längslappen19, 20 außen liegen. Die Boden-Längslappen 19, 20 sind durch Klebung miteinander verbunden, zum Beispiel durch Leimpunkte oder dergleichen.At the top, the blank forms an end wall 17. A floor wall is located opposite 18. End wall 17 and bottom wall 18 are partially separated by several overlapping folding flaps formed. The bottom wall 18 consists of bottom folding tabs, namely bottom longitudinal tabs 19 and 20 and bottom corner tabs 21, 22 on the other hand. The each pin-shaped longitudinal floor flaps 19, 20 are on the one hand with the front wall 10 and the rear wall 11 connected on the other hand. The narrower floor corner flaps 21, 22 are connected to the side wall 13 on the other hand or continuations thereof. The Floor corner tabs 21, 22 form the inside of the bottom wall 18, while the bottom longitudinal tabs 19, 20 are outside. The bottom longitudinal tabs 19, 20 are by gluing interconnected, for example by glue points or the like.

Ein bodenseitiger Bereich des Zuschnitts bzw. der Packung, nämlich ein Faltstreifen 24, ist doppellagig ausgebildet. Der Faltstreifen 24 besteht aus zwei Teilstreifen 25, 26. Der äußere, am freien Rand gebildete Teilstreifen 26 ist entlang einer Faltlinie 27 zur Bildung des doppellagigen Faltstreifens 24 umgefaltet. Aus dem doppellagigen Faltstreifen 24 werden die beschriebenen Bodenlappen gebildet.A bottom area of the blank or package, namely a folding strip 24, is double-layered. The folding strip 24 consists of two partial strips 25, 26. The outer partial strip 26 formed at the free edge is along a fold line 27 for formation of the double-layer folded strip 24 folded over. From the double-layered folding strip 24 the floor lobes described are formed.

An der Innenseite der Bodenwand 18 ist ein Abdecklappen gebildet, und zwar zwischen der Bodenwand 18 und dem Packungsinhalt. Der Abdecklappen schützt den Packungsinhalt vor Übertragung von Leimpartikeln bei der Verklebung von Boden-Faltlappen.On the inside of the bottom wall 18, a cover flap is formed, between the bottom wall 18 and the package contents. The cover flap protects the contents of the pack before transferring glue particles when gluing floor folding flaps.

Der Abdecklappen wird bei dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel durch einen Bodenlappen gebildet, und zwar durch den mit der Seitenwand 12 verbundenen Boden-Ecklappen 21. Der Boden-Ecklappen 21 ist zu diesem Zweck nicht doppellagig ausgebildet. Vielmehr bleibt der Boden-Ecklappen 21 in der durch die Breite des Faltstreifens 24 vorgegebene Länge, ist also im wesentlichen doppelt so lang wie der Boden-Ecklappen 22. Der Zuschnitt ist hierfür durch Stanzlinien 28, 29 vorbereitet. Diese erstrecken sich an den seitlichen Begrenzungen des Boden-Ecklappens 21, und zwar im Berich des Faltstreifens 24 also bis zur Faltlinie 27. Dadurch können die Bereiche des Teilstreifens 26 zur Bildung der Boden-Längslappen 19, 20 und der Boden-Ecklappen 22 umgefaltet werden, während der Boden-Ecklappen 21 ungefaltet bleibt und dadurch eine entsprechend größere Länge aufweist. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ergibt sich eine zusätzliche Länge durch enen an der freien Seite des Faltstreifens 24 angebrachten Randstreifen 30. Dieser erstreckt sich bei der fertigen Packung als innenseitige Verstärkung im Bereich von Vorderwand 10, Rückwand 11 und Seitenwänden 12, 13 (Fig. 2.).The cover flap is in the embodiment shown by a bottom flap formed, namely by the bottom corner flap connected to the side wall 12 21. The floor corner flap 21 is not double-layered for this purpose. Much more remains the bottom corner flap 21 in the predetermined by the width of the folding strip 24 Length, that is essentially twice as long as the bottom corner flap 22. The blank is prepared for this by punching lines 28, 29. These extend to the lateral boundaries of the bottom corner flap 21, namely in the area of the folding strip 24 thus up to the fold line 27. As a result, the regions of the partial strip 26 folded over to form the bottom longitudinal tabs 19, 20 and the bottom corner tabs 22 be, while the bottom corner flap 21 remains unfolded and thereby a corresponding has greater length. This results in the present exemplary embodiment an additional length by attaching it to the free side of the folding strip 24 Edge strips 30. In the finished pack, this extends as an inside reinforcement in the area of front wall 10, rear wall 11 and side walls 12, 13 (Fig. 2.).

Der entsprechend in Längsrichtung der Seitenwand 12 bemessene Boden-Ecklappen 21 erstreckt sich entlang der Bodenwand 18 innenseitig bis zum gegenüberliegenden Boden-Ecklappen 22 bzw. über diesen hinweg (Fig. 2, Fig. 3). Der Packungsinhalt ist demnach vollflächig durch die Boden-Ecklappen 21, 22 abgedeckt gegenüber den außen anliegenden Boden-Längslappen 19, 20. Diese werden in einer zu der Stirnwand 17 anlalogen Weise gefaltet und miteinander verbunden. Die Beleimung der Boden-Faltlappen, nämlich der Boden-Längslappen 19, 20 erfolgt zweckmäßiger Weise in einer Stellung entsprechend Fig. 2 und Fig. 3. Der Packungsinhalt, nämlich die zugekehrten Enden der Zigaretten, sind dabei durchgehend abgedeckt, nämlich durch den einlagigen Boden-Ecklappen 21 einerseits und durch den anschließenden Boden-Ecklappen 22 andererseits.The bottom corner flap 21 correspondingly dimensioned in the longitudinal direction of the side wall 12 extends on the inside along the bottom wall 18 to the opposite bottom corner flap 22 or across it (Fig. 2, Fig. 3). The package contents are accordingly fully covered by the floor corner flaps 21, 22 compared to the outside adjacent longitudinal flaps 19, 20. These are analogous to the end wall 17 Folded and bound together. The gluing of the bottom folding flaps, namely the bottom longitudinal tab 19, 20 is advantageously carried out in one position corresponding to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3. The package contents, namely the facing ends of cigarettes are covered throughout, namely by the single-layer Floor corner flap 21 on the one hand and by the adjoining floor corner flap 22 on the other hand.

Eine andere Besonderheit der Erfindung bezieht sich ebenfalls auf die Gestaltung der Packung im Bereich mehrlagiger Ausbildung des Zuschnitts. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel geht es um einen benachbart zur Stimwand 17 bzw. unmittelbar unterhalb derselben ringsherum laufenden mehrlagigen Materialstreifen 31. Dieser ist als Z-Faltung ausgebildet.Another special feature of the invention also relates to the design of the Pack in the area of multi-layer training of the blank. In the present The exemplary embodiment is concerned with one adjacent to the end wall 17 or directly underneath the same multi-layer material strip 31 running all around. This is as Z-fold formed.

Der Zuschnitt (Fig. 7) ist zu diesem Zweck in einem stimseitigen Bereich mit einem Faltstreifen 32 versehen, der zur Bildung von Stim-Faltlappen dient, analog zur Ausgestaltung der Bodenwand 18. Es handelt sich demnach um die Bildung von Stimlängslappen 33, 34 sowie den schmaleren Stin-Ecklappen 35 und 36. Der Stim-Ecklappen 36 ist teilweise doppellagig ausgebildet, nämlich analog zur Seitenwand 13.For this purpose, the blank (FIG. 7) is in a front area with a folding strip 32 provided, which serves to form stim folding flaps, analogous to the design the bottom wall 18. It is therefore a matter of the formation of longitudinal stimuli 33, 34 and the narrower Stin corner flaps 35 and 36. The Stim corner flap 36 is partial formed of two layers, namely analogous to the side wall 13.

Zwischen dem Faltstreifen 32 und dem Bereich mit Vorderwand 10, Rückwand 11 etc. ist ein zusätzlicher Materialstreifen gebildet, nämlich ein Z-Faltstreifen 37. Dieser besteht aus zwei Teilstreifen, nämlich für Schenkel 38, 39 der Z-Faltung. Die streifenförmigen Schenkel 38, 39 sind voneinander durch eine Z-Faltkante 40 sowie von dem Faltstreifen 32 durch eine Faltkante 41 und von Vorderwand 10, Rückwand 11 etc. durch eine weitere Faltkante 42 abgegrenzt. Diese bilden jeweils Umlenkkanten des Materials bei der fertigen Z-Faltung (Fig. 5).Is between the folding strip 32 and the area with the front wall 10, rear wall 11, etc. an additional strip of material is formed, namely a Z-fold strip 37. This is made from two partial strips, namely for legs 38, 39 of the Z-fold. The stripe-shaped Legs 38, 39 are separated from each other by a Z-folded edge 40 and by the folded strip 32 by a folded edge 41 and front wall 10, rear wall 11 etc. by another Folded edge 42 delimited. These each form deflection edges of the material at the finished Z-fold (Fig. 5).

Im Bereich der Seitenwand 13 ergibt sich durch die Gestaltung des Materialstreifens 31 eine Anhäufung von Materiallagen (Fig. 6). Dies kann zu einer unerwünschten Öffnung der Faltung in diesem Bereich führen. Um dieser Erscheinung entgegenzutreten, sind in dem Überlappungsbereich Materiallagen beseitgt, so dass die Gesamtzahl der einander überdeckenden Lagen örtlich reduziert ist. Zu diesem Zweck sind vorzugsweise innen liegende, also nach außen abgedeckte Lagen, mit Ausnehmungen, Löschem, Ausstanzungen oder dergleichen versehen.The design of the material strip 31 results in the region of the side wall 13 an accumulation of material layers (Fig. 6). This can lead to an undesirable opening of folding in this area. To counteract this phenomenon, in the overlap area eliminates material layers so that the total number of each other overlying layers is locally reduced. For this purpose are preferably inside lying layers, i.e. layers covered to the outside, with recesses, deletions, cut-outs or the like.

Beim vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist im Bereich des Z-Faltstreifens 37 randseitig eine zu freien Rand hin offene Ausnehmung 43 angeordnet. Diese ist V-förmig ausgebildet und erstreckt sich annähernd mittig im Bereich des Z-Faltstreifens 37, also zu beiden Seiten der Z-Faltkante 40. In the present exemplary embodiment, the edge is in the area of the Z-fold strip 37 a recess 43 open towards the free edge is arranged. This is V-shaped and extends approximately centrally in the area of the Z-fold strip 37, that is to say both Sides of the z-fold edge 40.

Bei der Herstellung der Packung wird zuerst die Z-Faltung im Bereich des im Übrigen ebenen Zuschnitts gebildet (Fig. 8). Danach wird der Packungsinhalt durch den soweit vorberteiteten Zuschnitt umhüllt, wobei die Materalüberdeckung im Bereich der Seitenwand 13 entsteht. Die Ausnehmung 43 ist in dem dem (äußeren ) Seitenlappen 15 zugekehrten Bereich des Z-Faltstreifens 37 angeordnet. Durch die innen liegende Z-Faltung (Fig. 6) ist die Ausnehmung 43 bei der fertigen Packung außen überdeckt durch einen oberen Bereich des Steitenlappens 15. Unterhalb des Seitenlappens 14 ergibt sich durch die Gestalt und Anordnung der Ausnehmung 43 eine örtliche Material- bzw. Lagenreduzierung, und zwar im Bereich der Schenkel 38 und 39.When manufacturing the pack, the Z-fold in the area of the rest is first flat blank formed (Fig. 8). After that, the contents of the pack are replaced by the prepared blank wrapped, with the material covering in the area of the side wall 13 arises. The recess 43 is in the (outer) side tab 15 facing Area of the Z-fold strip 37 arranged. Due to the Z-fold on the inside (Fig. 6), the recess 43 is covered on the outside by the finished pack an upper area of the side tab 15. Below the side tab 14 results a local material or layer reduction due to the shape and arrangement of the recess 43, namely in the area of the legs 38 and 39.

Eine besonders korrekte und haltbare Vrbindung im Bereich der Überlappung der Enden des mehrlagigen Materialstreifens 31 ist dann gegeben, wenn im Bereich der geschaffenen Ausnehmung 43 Materiallagen durch Kleben miteinander verbunden sind. Bei dem vorliegenden Beispiel ist ein Leimpunkt 44 im Bereich der Ausnehmung 43 positioniert. Dadurch wird der (außen liegende) Seitenlappen 15 unmittelbar mit dem innen liegenden Seitenlappen 14 verbunden, durch die Ausnehmung 43 hindurch. Bei dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel (Fig. 8) ist die Anordnung des Leimpunktes 44 so gewählt, dass dieser mittig zu einer die Ausnehmung 43 begrenzenden (Doppel-)Kante 45 positioniert ist. Durch den Leimpunkt 44 wird dadurch zugleich auch der äußere Seitenlappen 15 mit dem zugekehrten Schenkel 39 des Z-Faltstreifens 37 verbunden.A particularly correct and durable connection in the area of the overlap of the ends of the multi-layer material strip 31 is given if in the area of the created Recess 43 layers of material are connected by gluing. In which In the present example, a glue point 44 is positioned in the region of the recess 43. As a result, the (outside) side tab 15 is directly connected to the inside Side tab 14 connected, through the recess 43. With the shown Embodiment (Fig. 8), the arrangement of the glue point 44 is chosen so that this is positioned centrally to a (double) edge 45 delimiting the recess 43 is. Through the glue point 44, the outer side tab 15 is thereby also at the same time the facing leg 39 of the Z-fold strip 37 connected.

Die beschriebenen Zuschnitte werden zweckmäßigerweise von einer fortlaufenden Materialbahn durch quergerichtete Trennschnitte abgeteilt, wobei sich der Z-Faltstreifen 37 zweckmäßigerweise in Längsrichtung der Bahn erstreckt. Die Ausnehmung 43 wird dabei durch bzw. mit einem quergerichteten Trennschnitt für die Zuschnitte angebracht durch entsprechende Ausgestaltung eines Trennmessers. Bei dem jeweils nachfolgenden Zuschnitt entsteht dadurch ein Vorsprung bzw. eine Zunge 46 in Gestalt der Ausnehmung 43 und in Fortsetzung des Z-Faltstreifens 37. Diese Zunge 46 verschwindet innenseitig bei der fertigen Packung. The cuts described are expediently made from a continuous material web divided by transverse separating cuts, the Z-fold strip 37 expediently extends in the longitudinal direction of the web. The recess 43 is attached by or with a transverse cut for the blanks by appropriate design of a cutting knife. With the following one This creates a projection or a tongue 46 in the shape of the recess 43 and in continuation of the Z-folding strip 37. This tongue 46 disappears inside the finished pack.
