Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein wiederverschließbares Ausgießelement zum Applizieren auf eine Mehrschichtverbundpackung, mit einem Grundkörper und einem einstückig mit diesem gelenkig verbundenen Ausgießrohr, das gleichzeitig als Öffnungselement zum Durchstoßen der Packungswandung der Packung in einer dafür vorgesehenen Schwächungszone ausgebildet ist, sowie eine dafür vorgesehene Packung.The invention relates to a resealable Pouring element for applying to a Multilayer composite, with a basic body and in one piece with this articulated Spout, which at the same time as opening element for Piercing the packing wall of the pack in one designed for this purpose weakening zone, as well as a designated pack.
Mehrschichtverbundpackungen sind in vielfacher Ausfertigung bekannt, beispielsweise als Flachgiebelverbundpackungen oder als Standbeutel. Sie finden vornehmlich auf dem Gebiet der Flüssigkeitsverpackung im Zusammenhang mit Kalt-, Kalt-Steril-, Heiß- und aseptischer Füllung Verwendung. Während diese Packungen zunächst nicht wiederverschließbar waren, sind heute nahezu ausschließlich solche Packungen mit wiederverschließbaren Ausgießelementen marktüblich.Multi-layer composite packages are more numerous Copy known, for example as Flat gable composite packages or as a stand-up pouch. she find primarily in the field of Liquid packaging in connection with cold, cold sterile, Hot and aseptic filling use. While these packs do not work at first were resealable today are almost only such packages with resealable Pouring elements customary in the market.
Dabei sind Mehrschichtverbundpackungen bekannt, die mit einem Ausgießelement versehen sind, welches zum erstmaligen Öffnen der Packung dient und zu seiner Wiederverschließbarkeit mit einem entsprechenden Verschlusselement ausgestattet ist (EP 0 580 593 B1). Dort ist im Bereich der Kartonschicht und äußeren PE-Schicht des Verbundmaterials der Packung eine Trennlinie zur Schwächung des Giebelmaterials vorgesehen, in die zum Öffnen der Packung ein mit dem Ausgießelement einstückig verbundenes Öffnungselement in das Packungsmaterial hineingedrückt wird. Am Grundkörper dieses bekannten Ausgießelementes ist weiterhin ein Deckel befestigt, welcher zum Wiederverschließen der Packung dient.In this case, multi-layer composite packages are known which with a pouring element are provided, which for first opening the pack serves and to his Reclosability with a corresponding Closing element is equipped (EP 0 580 593 B1). There is in the area of the cardboard layer and outer PE layer of the composite material of the packing a dividing line intended to weaken the gable material into which Open the package one piece with the pouring element connected opening element in the packing material is pressed into it. On the body of this known Pouring element is further attached a lid, which serves to reclosure of the pack.
Eine Weiterentwicklung ist in der DE 197 27 996 C2 beschrieben. Das daraus bekannte Ausgießelement weist ein Ausgießrohr auf, das gleichzeitig als Öffnungselement zum Durchstoßen der Packungswandung dient. Dieses bekannte Ausgießelement ist jedoch in mehrerer Hinsicht nachteilig. Einerseits weist dieses Ausgießelement eine relativ große Bauhöhe auf, die hinsichtlich Transport, Lagerung etc. der damit versehenen Packungen ungünstig ist. Andererseits ist ein sicheres und dichtes (Wieder-) Verschließen bei diesem Ausgießelement nicht zuverlässig gelöst. Darüber hinaus hat dieses bekannte Ausgießelement eine feste Schwenkachse, so dass die Membran das Ausgießrohr teilweise umgibt und im Bereich der Schwenkachse nach mehrmaligem Betätigen des Ausgießelementes beschädigt wird, was wiederum zu Undichtigkeit der Packung führt. Schließlich weist bei dem bekannten Ausgießelement die Öffnung des geschlossenen Ausgießrohres von der Gießkante der Verbundpackung weg; dies erfordert eine atypische Bewegung des Verbrauchers beim Öffnen.A further development is in DE 197 27 996 C2 described. The known pouring element has a Pouring on, which also serves as opening element for Piercing the packing wall is used. This known However, pouring element is in several ways disadvantageous. On the one hand, this pouring element has a relatively large height, which in terms of transport, Storage etc. of the packages provided therewith unfavorable is. On the other hand, a safe and dense (re-) Do not close reliably with this pouring element solved. In addition, this known pouring element a fixed pivot axis, so that the membrane Spout partly surrounds and in the area of Swivel axis after repeated actuation of the Pouring element is damaged, which in turn too Leakage of the pack leads. Finally, instructs the known pouring the opening of the closed spout from the pouring edge of the Composite pack away; this requires an atypical Movement of the consumer when opening.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, das eingangs genannte und zuvor näher beschriebene Ausgießelement derart zu verbessern, dass bei geringer Bauhöhe ein zuverlässig öffnendes und wiederverschließendes Ausgießelement erhältlich ist, welches für den Verbraucher in jeglicher Hinsicht die größtmögliche Benutzerfreundlichkeit aufweist. The invention is therefore based on the object, the mentioned above and described in more detail above To improve pouring element such that at low Height a reliable opening and resealable pouring element is available, which for the consumer in all respects the has the greatest possible user-friendliness.
Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass das Ausgießrohr mit einer umlaufenden flexiblen Membran mit dem Grundkörper verbunden und in geschlossenem Zustand flach gefaltet ist, so dass das flach gefaltete Ausgießrohr zwischen einer Klemmkante und einem Klemmsteg des Grundkörpers dichtend eingeklemmt wird.This object is inventively achieved in that the spout with a circumferential flexible membrane connected to the main body and in closed Condition is folded flat, so that the flat folded Spout between a clamping edge and a clamping bar of the body is sealingly clamped.
Erfindungsgemäß ist erreicht worden, dass durch das Flachfalten des Ausgießrohres die Bauhöhe des Ausgießelementes deutlich verringert werden konnte, was zu einer besseren Stapelbarkeit und einem harmonischeren Design führt. Dadurch, dass durch das Flachfalten und Einklemmen ein "flächiges Abdichten" des Ausgießrohres erfolgt, ist das erfindungsgemäße Ausgießelement auch nach dem Wiederverschließen zuverlässig dicht, so dass beispielsweise die Packung problemlos geschüttelt werden kann, ohne dass etwas vom Produkt austreten kann.According to the invention has been achieved that by the Flat folds of the spout the height of the Pouring element could be significantly reduced, which to a better stackability and a more harmonious Design leads. As a result of the flat folds and Pinching a "surface sealing" of the spout takes place, the pouring element according to the invention is also after resealing reliably tight, so that For example, the package can be shaken easily can, without something from the product can escape.
Eine weitere Lehre der Erfindung sieht vor, dass das Ausgießrohr und/oder die Membran Verstärkungen aufweist, die als Öffnungselement dienen. Auf diese Weise ist gewährleistet, dass das geschwächte Packungsmaterial unterhalb des Ausgießelements beim erstmaligen Öffnen der Packung zuverlässig zerstört wird.Another teaching of the invention provides that the Spout and / or the membrane has reinforcements, which serve as opening element. That way is ensures that the weakened packing material below the pouring element when first opening the Pack is reliably destroyed.
In bevorzugter Weiterbildung der Erfindung zeigt die Öffnung des Ausgießrohres in geschlossenem Zustand in Richtung der Gießkante der Packung, so dass beim Verbraucher eine "gewohnte Öffnungsbewegung" durch Anheben des Verschlusses von vorne möglich ist. In a preferred embodiment of the invention shows the Opening of the spout in the closed state in Direction of the pouring edge of the pack, so that when Consumers through a "usual opening movement" Lifting the closure from the front is possible.
Eine weitere Lehre der Erfindung sieht vor, dass das Ausgießrohr mindestens einen Belüftungskanal aufweist. Zweckmäßigerweise ragt dieser Belüftungskanal packungsseitig über das Ausgießrohr hinaus und dient der hinausragende Teil des Belüftungskanals gleichzeitig als Öffnungselement. Bevorzugt weist der Belüftungskanal mehrere Einzelkanäle auf, deren Querschnitt sich von der Öffnung des Belüftungskanals weg konisch verjüngt. Mit einer solchen Ausgestaltung wird eine Ventilwirkung beim Ausgießvorgang erreicht, die dafür sorgt, dass der Belüftungskanal stets einen ausreichenden Querschnitt aufweist.Another teaching of the invention provides that the Spout has at least one ventilation duct. Conveniently, this ventilation duct protrudes pack side beyond the spout and serves the protruding part of the ventilation duct simultaneously as Opening element. Preferably, the ventilation duct a plurality of individual channels whose cross section differs from the Opening of the ventilation duct tapered away. With Such a configuration is a valve effect in Pouring achieved, which ensures that the Ventilation channel always a sufficient cross-section having.
Dabei versteht sich von selbst, dass der im Ausgießrohr liegende Teil des Belüftungskanals nicht bis an die Öffnung des Ausgießrohres heranreichen kann, um ein sicheres Flachfalten dieser Öffnung nicht zu behindern. Dies ist jedoch auch nicht notwendig, für eine gute Belüftungsfunktion reicht es aus, dass der Belüftungskanal oberhalb des Produktstrahls liegt und bis in die Packung hinein reicht. Der Querschnitt des Belüftungskanals kann polygon, vorzugsweise sechseckig, oder rund bzw. oval sein.It goes without saying that the spout lying part of the ventilation duct not to the Opening of the spout can come up to a secure flat folding of this opening does not hinder. However, this is not necessary for a good one Ventilation function, it suffices that the Ventilation duct is above the product jet and up into the pack. The cross section of the Ventilation duct can be polygonal, preferably hexagonal, or be round or oval.
Damit die Packungswand im Bereich der Schwächungszone auf jeden Fall zuverlässig zerstört werden kann, sieht eine weitere Lehre der Erfindung vor, dass der als Öffnungselement dienende untere Teil des Belüftungskanals mit einer Schneide oder dergleichen versehen ist.So that the packing wall in the area of the weakening zone any case can be reliably destroyed, sees one Another teaching of the invention that as the Opening element serving lower part of the ventilation duct is provided with a cutting edge or the like.
In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass das Ausgießrohr weitere, packungsseitig über das Ausgießrohr hinausragende Verstärkungsstege aufweist, welche den Öffnungsvorgang unterstützen und bei geöffnetem Ausgießelement ein Offenhalten des Packungsmaterials sicherstellen. In vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung sind diese Verstärkungsstege profiliert ausgebildet, um eine bessere Steifigkeit zu erreichen. Hier ist beispielsweise ein Winkelprofil möglich. Zweckmäßigerweise sind diese Verstärkungsstege in Verlängerung des Ausgießrohres angebracht, um einen definierten Gießquerschnitt zu erreichen.In a further embodiment of the invention is provided that the spout more on the pack side over the Spout has protruding reinforcing webs, which support the opening process and at open pouring a hold open the Ensure packing material. In an advantageous manner Design these reinforcing bars profiled designed to achieve better rigidity. Here, for example, an angle profile is possible. Conveniently, these reinforcing webs are in Extension of the spout attached to a reach defined casting cross section.
Nach einer weiteren Lehre der Erfindung weist das Ausgießrohr in geöffneter Stellung einen polygonen, runden oder ovalen Querschnitt auf. Damit wird stets ein optimaler Gießquerschnitt erreicht und es ist auch möglich, das Ausgießrohr gleichzeitig als "Mundstück" zu benutzen.According to another teaching of the invention, the Spout in the open position a polygonal, round or oval cross section. This always becomes one optimal casting cross section is reached and it is too possible, the spout simultaneously as "mouthpiece" too to use.
Zur sicheren Entleerung des gesamten Packungsinhaltes beträgt der Aufklappwinkel des Ausgießrohres des erfindungsgemäßen Ausgießelementes bevorzugt zwischen 30° und 90°. Bei der Verwendung mit Standbeuteln sind jedoch auch Aufklappwinkel zwischen 20° und 170° denkbar.For safe emptying of the entire contents of the package is the flip angle of the spout of the pouring element according to the invention preferably between 30 ° and 90 °. However, when used with pouches are also hinged angle between 20 ° and 170 ° conceivable.
In weiterer Ausbildung der Erfindung wird die flach gefaltete Öffnung des Ausgießrohres mittels einer am Grundkörper vorgesehenen Klemmkante dicht verschlossen gehalten. Auf diese Weise wird zuverlässig verhindert, dass vor dem erstmaligen Verbrauch Schmutz ins Innere des Ausgießrohres gelingen kann und darüber hinaus erfolgt beim Verbraucher eine "Rückmeldung" beim Wiederverschließen, indem das flach gefaltete Ausgießrohr im geschlossenen oder wiederverschlossenen Zustand in die Klemmkante hinein geclipst wird, so dass eine akustische und taktile Wahrnehmung möglich ist. Um eine besonders sicheres Flachfalten zu erreichen, weist die Wand des Ausgießrohres eine Mehrzahl von Sollfaltstellen auf, die wie Filmscharniere wirken.In a further embodiment of the invention, the flat folded opening of the spout by means of an am Body provided clamping edge tightly closed held. In this way it is reliably prevented that before the first consumption of dirt inside the Spout can succeed and beyond the consumer a "feedback" when Reclose by the flat-folded spout in the closed or reclosed state in the Clamping edge is clipped into it, so that an acoustic and tactile perception is possible. To be a special To achieve safe flat folding, the wall of the Spout to a plurality of Sollfaltstellen, the how film hinges work.
Eine weitere Lehre der Erfindung sieht vor, dass das Ausgießelement ein Originalitätssiegel aufweist. Bevorzugt ist als Originalitätssiegel eine Verbindung zwischen flach gefaltetem Ausgießrohr und Grundkörper vorgesehen, welche dann beim erstmaligen Öffnen des Ausgießelementes zerstört wird.Another teaching of the invention provides that the Pouring a tamper-evident seal. As a seal of authenticity, a compound is preferred between flat folded spout and body provided, which then when you first open the Pouring element is destroyed.
Die Erfindung betrifft weiter eine Flachgiebelpackung, insbesondere quaderförmige Karton-/Kunststoffverbundpackung, welche optimal auf das Applizieren des Grundkörpers ausgerichtet ist.

In Fig. 1 ist ein erfindungsgemäßes Ausgießelement in
geschlossener Stellung dargestellt, und zwar in der Form,
wie es auf eine (nicht dargestellte) Packung appliziert
wird. Es besteht im wesentlichen aus einem rahmenartigen
Grundkörper 1 mit einem umlaufenden Applikationsflansch 2
und einem erst in geöffneter Stellung gemäß Fig. 2
vollständig erkennbaren Ausgießrohr 3. Von diesem
Ausgießrohr 3 ist in Fig. 1 nur die flach gefaltete
Oberseite 3A zu erkennen. Das Ausgießrohr 3 ist von einer
umlaufenden flexiblen Membran 4 umgeben, die wiederum
einstückig mit dem Grundkörper 1 verbunden ist. Im
dargestellten und insoweit bevorzugten
Ausführungsbeispiel weist die Membran 4 eine Mehrzahl von
vier- bzw. dreieckigen Einzelflächen auf, von denen die
Flächen 4 A bis 4G in Fig. 2 erkennbar sind.In Fig. 1 is an inventive pouring in
closed position, in the form,
as applied to a package (not shown)
becomes. It consists essentially of a frame-
Zur besseren Darstellung ist in den Fig. 3 bis 5 das
perspektivisch dargestellte Ausgießelement aus Fig. 2 in
drei verschiedenen Ansichten und in Fig. 9 im
Längsschnitt dargestellt. Man erkennt deutlich einen
Belüftungskanal 5 im Inneren des Ausgießrohres 3 und den
Öffnungsvorgang unterstützende Verstärkungsstege 6, wobei
sowohl der Belüftungskanal 5 als auch die
Verstärkungsstege 6 in geöffneter Stellung zur
Freihaltung eines definierten Gießquerschnittes des bei
der Öffnung der Packung seitlich weggedrückten
Packungsmaterials dienen. Der Belüftungskanal 5 ragt, wie
weiter oben dargestellt, packungsseitig über das
Ausgießrohr 3 hinaus und der hinausragende Teil 5A des
Belüftungskanals 5 ist gleichzeitig als Öffnungselement
ausgebildet. Bevorzugt weist dazu der hinausragende Teil
5A des Belüftungskanals 5 an seinem unteren Ende eine
Schneide 7 auf, die besonders deutlich in den Fig. 2 und
5 erkennbar ist.For better illustration in Figs. 3 to 5 the

Die perspektivische Darstellung in Fig. 2 zeigt das
Ausgießelement so, wie es das Spritzwerkzeug nach dem
Spritzvorgang verlässt, nämlich mit geöffnetem
Ausgießrohr 3. Das Ausgießrohr 3 weist im dargestellten
und insoweit bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel einen
sechseckigen Querschnitt auf, der in Fig. 6 deutlich zu
erkennen ist. Nach einer weiteren Lehre der Erfindung
weist die Wand des Ausgießrohres 3 eine Mehrzahl von
Sollfaltstellen 11 auf. Diese Geometrie des Ausgießrohres
3 ist besonders zweckmäßig, um das Ausgießrohr 3 bei
geschlossenem Ausgießelement vollkommen flach falten zu
können.The perspective view in Fig. 2 shows the
Pouring element as it is the injection mold after the
Spraying leaves, namely with
An der vorderen Kante des umlaufenden
Applikationsflansches 2 ist eine Klemmkante 8 zu
erkennen, der im oberen Bereich einen zum Ausgießrohr
weisenden Vorsprung 8A aufweist, der besonders deutlich
in Fig. 3 erkennbar ist. Des Weiteren ist die Klemmkante
8 in ihrem mittleren Bereich ausgespart, um einen als
Öffnungshilfe dienenden Vorsprung 9 (einer Verlängerung
der Oberseite 3A des Ausgießrohres 3) des Ausgießrohres 3
aufnehmen zu können.At the front edge of the revolving
Nachdem das Ausgießelement das Werkzeug verlassen hat,
wird das Ausgießrohr 3 flach gefaltet und nimmt die in
den Fig. 1, 7, 8 und 10 dargestellte Form an. Dabei

Das flach gefaltete Ausgießrohr 3 wird dabei über einen
vom Grundkörper 1 nach oben ragenden Klemmsteg 10 mit
leichter Vorspannung gebogen, wie insbesondere den Fig. 7
und 10 deutlich entnommen werden kann. Dadurch wird das
Ausgießrohr 3 von unten vom Klemmsteg 10 und von oben von
der Klemmkante 8 platt zusammen gedrückt, so dass seine
Öffnung zuverlässig abdichtend geschlossen wird. Dies
ermöglicht ein tropffreies Schütteln einer mit einem
erfindungsgemäßen Ausgießelement versehenen
wiederverschlossenen Getränkepackung und sorgt weiterhin
dafür, das ein Eindringen von Staub, Feuchtigkeit etc.
zuverlässig verhindert wird.The flat folded
Das erfindungsgemäße Ausgießelement kann dabei weiterhin
ein (nicht dargestelltes) Originalitätssiegel aufweisen,
welches beispielsweise zwischen Klemmkante 8 und zwischen
flach gefaltetem Ausgießrohr 3 angeordnet sein kann und
beim erstmaligen Öffnen einer mit einem erfindungsgemäßen
Ausgießelement versehenen Packung zerstört wird, so dass
der Verbraucher auf einen Blick sehen kann, ob sich die
Packung noch im ungeöffneten Zustand befindet oder nicht.The pouring element according to the invention can continue
have a tamper-evident seal (not shown),
which, for example, between clamping
Im dargestellten und insoweit bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel beträgt der Aufklappwinkel ca. 65°. Dies ist für ein vollständiges tropffreies Entleeren der Packung ausreichend, jedoch ist auch technisch jeder Aufklappwinkel zwischen 30° und 90° möglich. Wird das erfindungsgemäße Ausgießelement mit Standbeuteln verwendet, sind auch Aufklappwinkel zwischen 20° und 170° denkbar.In the illustrated and insofar preferred Embodiment, the Aufklappwinkel is about 65 °. This is for a complete non-drip emptying of the Pack enough, but is technically everyone Tilt angle between 30 ° and 90 ° possible.
