Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging blank comprising two large panels, linked by one narrow panel about which the large panels are folded at substantially right angles to wrap over a flat object and particularly a two-wheeled vehicle such as a bicycle. Furthermore the invention relates to a packing made from such a packaging blank.
  • Such a packing is used to pack complete products, especially bicycles coming from a production line in the factory, for transportation from factory to store and protection during transportation and handling.
  • the current packing used for 30 years or more, comprises two panels joined by a central narrow panel, so that they hang and protect each side of the bicycle. Once the blank is positioned on the bicycle, the packing is closed by means of tape and/or staples which needs relatively much time and handling. Because additional tools and other materials are required, there is a risk of poor positioning or incorrect or inadequate fixing of the packing. Because the current way of packing cost relatively much time, it constitutes a bottleneck in the production process of manufacturing bicycles.
  • the object of the invention is to solve these problems.
  • a packaging blank defined in the introduction which is characterised in that when the blank is folded about the flat object, the large panels are held in place together by at least one interlocking means formed using the material of the blank only.
  • an aperture for a projecting part of the flat object to be packed is provided.
  • the blank preferably comprises apertures for projections such as the handlebar stem, pedal mounts and saddle post of the bicycle.
  • a further aperture is provided, which aperture facilitates assembling, handling and/or identification of the object packed. Through these apertures the bicycle can be easier and better identified, handled and/or assembled.
  • the packaging blank according to the invention is further preferably characterised in that the or each interlocking means comprises a tab on one panel which is to be inserted into a slot in the panel to which it is to be linked.
  • the mutual connection between panels is unambiguous through given locations of tabs and corresponding slots. Correct and adequate fixing of the packing is guaranteed. Furthermor, this design of interlocking means can be readily disconnected, e.g. by manually reversing the process of insertion of a tab in a slot, in order to unpack the object at the retailer.
  • the or each interlocking means comprises a tab projecting from a flap attached to one panel. Precise positioning of opposed panels is guaranteed.
  • a flap is also attached to the other panel or panels, whereas the flaps form together a part of the packing structure.
  • the packing made of this blank has one closed end face.
  • one projecting tab is cut from a further flap attached to the flap from which said tap is projecting, and said further flap also forms a part of the packing structure.
  • the packing made of this blank also has its other end closed.
  • the material of the blank is carton board, corrugated container board or a material with similar properties. This kind of material gives sufficient strenght during handling and transportation in order to protect the object packed. Proper choice of material, e.g. the grade of corrugated, can permit the connection to be ruptured using a tool or some reasonable manual force applied to the interlocking means to tear it of or overcome the resistance provided by the engagement of the interlocking means.
  • the invention also relates to a packing made from the packaging blank as defined in one of the claims 1-7, which packing is held in an erected condition by use of one or more interlocking means.
  • the two large panels may be held in their folded position by use of one or more interlocking means at one end of the narrow panel, so as to allow the flat object which is to be packed to be inserted into the pre-erected packing from the other end.
  • one interlocking means holds together the large panels at the other end of the narrow panel, so as to close the packing after insertion of the flat object into the pre-erected packing.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates one embodiment of a packaging blank for a packing of a bicycle.
  • the blank includes two large flat panels 1,2 and an intermediate narrow panel 3.
  • the narrow panel 3 is joined to each large panel 1,2 by means of a folding line 4.
  • an aperture 5 is provided for the saddle post of the bicycle to be packed.
  • an aperture 6 is provided at the one end of the narrow panel 3 .
  • the large panels 1,2 are provided with apertures 7 for ease of identification of the bicycle packed.
  • each large panel 1,2 comprises an aperture 8 for ease of mounting a saddle to the saddle post after the bicycle is packed in the packing.
  • Flaps 9,10 and 11 respectively are attached to the panels 1,2 and 3 by means of folding lines 12. Three tabs 13 project from one flap 9, whereas three slots 14 are provided in the panels 2,3 abutting the other two flaps 10,11. Each tab 13 is to be inserted into a slot 14 in the panel 10,11 to which it is to be linked (see also Fig. 2). At the other end of the narrow panel 3, another flap 15 is attached to one of the large panels 2. This flap 15 is connected to the panel 2 by means of a folding line 16. Furthermore the flap 15 is extended with a further flap 17 which in the final packing lies against the inside surface of panel 1. In flap 17 another tab 18 is cut. Tab 18 on panel 2 is to be inserted into a slot 19 cut in panel 1 to which panel 2 is to be linked.
  • the packing By folding the large panels 1,2 at right angles to the narrow panel 3 and inserting the tabs 13 into the corresponding slots 14, after flap 11 is folded in (see Fig. 2), the packing is held in an erected condition.
  • the bicycle which is to be packed can be inserted into this pre-erected packing from the open end, i.e. the end of the packing being opposed the end closed by the interlocking means 13,14. This end is then closed by folding in flaps 15,17 and inserting tab 18 into slot 19 so that the large panels 1,2 are also held together at the other end of the narrow panel 3.
  • the packing is open at the bottom so that it still allows the bicycle packed to be wheeled along. Instead of holding the packing pre-erected, it is also possible to fold the blank over the bicycle directly from the pallet and then lock the tabs 13,18 into the corresponding slots 14,19.
  • interlocking means 13,14 and 18,19 resp. can differ in number and shape from the preferred embodiment shown.
  • the invention is therefore restricted solely by the content of the accompanying claims.
