Abstract

The packaging consists of a mainly flat lower part (2) with holder (6) for a primary package (7), e.g. a pot (8) for a dessert, and a hood-shaped upper part (4). The upper part has at least two inward projecting stops (11) for each pot. After upper and lower parts have been connected, the stops are located above the edge of a pot for definition of height. There are at least two diametrically opposite stops for each pot, and the upper part has stepped recesses to define stops (11) for neighboring primary packages.

Description

Technisches GebietTechnical area

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sekundär-Verpackung, bestehend aus einem im wesentlichen flachen Unterteil mit mindestens einer Aufnahme für eine Primärverpackung in Form eines über seinen Rand mit einer druckempfindlichen Dessertmasse befüllten Bechers sowie einem haubenförmigen Oberteil, wobei Unterteil und Oberteil mindestens streckenweise über komplementäre Randbereiche lösbar miteinander verbunden sind und das Oberteil (4) je Becher (8) mindestens zwei in sein Inneres vorspringende Anschläge (11) aufweist, die nach dem Verbinden des Oberteils (4) mit dem Unterteil (2) zur Höhenbegrenzung über dem Becherrand (9) angeordnet sind.The invention relates to a secondary packaging, comprising a substantially flat lower part with at least one receptacle for a primary packaging in the form of a cup filled with a pressure-sensitive dessert mass over its edge and a hood-shaped upper part, wherein the lower part and upper part at least in sections on complementary edge regions releasably with each other are connected and the upper part (4) per cup (8) at least two in its interior projecting stops (11), which are arranged after connecting the upper part (4) with the lower part (2) to limit the height above the cup rim (9) ,

Es ist bekannt, die genannten Becher insbesondere mit einer cremigen oder pürierten Dessertmasse, z.B. Kastanienbrei (bekannt unter der Bezeichnung "Vermicelle"), Vanillecreme (bekannt unter der Bezeichnung "Diplomat") u.a. zu befüllen. Die Becher umschließen dabei das Unterteil der Dessertmasse, während das Oberteil weit über den Becher übersteht. So abgefüllt, behält die Dessertmasse ihre Form, bleibt aber druckempfindlich, d.h. sie kann zerdrückt oder zermatscht werden.It is known to fill the cups mentioned in particular with a creamy or pureed dessert mass, for example chestnut porridge (known under the name "Vermicelle"), vanilla cream (known under the name "Diplomat") and others. The cups enclose this Lower part of the dessert mass, while the upper part protrudes far above the cup. So bottled, the dessert mass keeps its shape, but remains sensitive to pressure, ie it can be crushed or crushed.

Der Becher stellt also erst eine Primärverpackung dar. Derartige Desserts im Becher gelangen üblicherweise weiterverpackt, d.h. in der Sekundär-Verpackung in den Handel. Die Sekundär-Verpackung besteht dabei aus einem relativ flachen Unterteil (Boden) sowie einem glocken- oder haubenförmigen Oberteil (Deckel). Das Oberteil kann über ein Scharnier mit dem Unterteil verbunden oder aber lose ausgebildet sein. Im letzterem Falle spricht man von einer zweiteiligen Sekundär-Verpackung.Thus, the cup represents only a primary packaging. Such desserts in the cup usually get further packed, i. in the secondary packaging in the trade. The secondary packaging consists of a relatively flat lower part (bottom) and a bell-shaped or hood-shaped upper part (cover). The upper part can be connected via a hinge to the lower part or loosely formed. In the latter case one speaks of a two-part secondary packaging.

Das Unterteil weist in aller Regel Vertiefungen zur Aufnahme der Becher auf. In diese Vertiefungen lassen sich Becher leicht einsetzen und daraus auch wieder mühelos entnehmen. Für den Transport der Sekundär-Verpackung müssen die darin enthaltenen Primärverpackungen einen festen Sitz bekommen, d.h. sie müssen immobilisiert werden. Dies geschieht mittels Anschlägen am Oberteil, welche bei geschlossener Verpackung zur Höhenbegrenzung über dem Becherrand angeordnet sind.The lower part usually has recesses for receiving the cups. Cups are easy to insert into these recesses and can be removed effortlessly. For the transport of the secondary packaging, the primary packaging contained therein must have a tight fit, i. they have to be immobilized. This is done by means of stops on the upper part, which are arranged with the packaging closed to limit the height above the edge of the cup.

Bei einer bekannten Ausführungsform gemäß der US-B1-6 176 375 (TRUSCELLO FRANCO ET AL ) sind die Anschläge als Rille ausgebildet, und zwar seitlich am haubenförmigen Oberteil. So kann eine Primärverpackung mit ihrem Becherrand an zwei gegenüberliegenden Stellen erreicht und immobilisiert werden. Dies gilt für jede weitere Primärverpackung derselben Reihe genauso.In a known embodiment according to the US-B1-6 176 375 (TRUSCELLO FRANCO ET AL ), the stops are formed as a groove, namely the side of the hood-shaped upper part. Thus, a primary packaging can be achieved with its cup edge at two opposite locations and immobilized. This applies equally to every other primary packaging in the same series.

Werden dagegen die aneinandergereihten Primärverpackungen nicht beidseitig von einer Haubenfläche begleitet, was ab einer zweireihigen Anordnung bereits der Fall ist, so versagt diese Form der Sicherung.If, however, the juxtaposed primary packaging is not accompanied on both sides by a hood surface, which is already the case from a double-row arrangement, this form of securing fails.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Hier setzt die Erfindung an. Sie will eine Sekundär-Verpackung dahingehend weiterbilden, dass für Primärverpackungen auch bei mehrreihiger Anordnung ein sicherer Sitz für den Transport gewährleistet ist.This is where the invention starts. She wants to develop a secondary packaging to the effect that a secure fit for transport is guaranteed for primary packaging, even with multi-row arrangement.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen von Anspruch 1. Zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen geben die nachgeordneten Ansprüche an.This object is achieved with the characterizing features of claim 1. Advantageous developments give the subordinate claims.

Die vorgeschlagenen neuartigen Anschläge kommen dort zum Einsatz, wo die bekannten unwirksam bleiben. Dagegen können die bekannten Anschläge dort nach wie vor verwirklicht werden, wo sie den Becherrand erreichen.The proposed novel attacks are used where the known remain ineffective. In contrast, the known attacks there can still be realized where they reach the cup edge.

So kommt auch weiter in Betracht, dass seitlich Anschläge jeweils vom unteren Ende einer Rille, Sicke oder dgl. unmittelbar am haubenförmigen Oberteil gebildet sind.So it is also further considered that the side stops each from the lower end of a groove, bead or the like. Are formed directly on the hood-shaped upper part.

Die Rille oder Sicke kann sich vom Anschlag aus auch noch in schwächerer Ausprägung nach unten fortsetzen, was den Anschlag noch formstabiler macht.The groove or bead can continue from the stop even in weaker form down, which makes the attack even more dimensionally stable.

Vorteilhaft sind die Anschläge so auf den Becherrand gerichtet, dass ggfs. eine Krafteinwirkung unter einem Winkel ≤ 45° in Bezug auf die Vertikale erfolgt. Hierbei wirkt jeweils noch eine wesentliche Kraftkomponente senkrecht in Richtung Aufnahme, welche den Becher in der Aufnahme hält, und erweist sich so der Becher auch am formstabilsten. Eine solche Krafteinwirkung kann auch dazu genutzt werden, dass sich die Anschläge schon beim Verbinden des Oberteils mit dem Unterteil am Becherrand andrücken und den Becher ab da in seiner Aufnahme immobilisieren.Advantageously, the attacks are directed to the edge of the cup, that if necessary. A force at an angle ≤ 45 ° with respect to the vertical takes place. In this case, in each case still a substantial force component acts vertically in the direction of recording, which holds the cup in the recording, and thus proves to be the cup even in the form-stable. Such a force can also be used to press the attacks already when connecting the upper part of the lower part of the cup rim and immobilize the cup from there in his recording.

Nach den Fig. 1-3 besteht eine einreihige Sekundär-Verpackung 1 aus einem etwa rechteckigen, relativ flachen Boden oder Unterteil 2 mit einem umlaufenden Randbereich 3 sowie einem haubenförmigen Deckel oder Oberteil 4 mit einem ebenfalls umlaufenden Randbereich 5. Die Randbereiche 3,5 sind in ihrem Profil wie auch in ihrer Verformbarkeit so aufeinander abgestimmt, dass sich der Randbereich 5 des Oberteils 4 über den Randbereich 3 des Unterteils 2 stülpen lässt, um so Oberteil 4 und Unterteil 2 lösbar miteinander zu verbinden. Je nach Verwendungszweck kann es auch schon ausreichen, dass zumindest streckenweise komplementäre Randbereiche gegeben sind und damit eine lösbare Verbindung zwischen Oberteil 4 und Unterteil 2 besteht.After the Fig. 1-3 a single-row secondary packaging 1 consists of an approximately rectangular, relatively flat bottom or lower part 2 with a peripheral edge region 3 and a hood-shaped cover or upper part 4 with a likewise peripheral edge region 5. The edge regions 3,5 are in their profile as well as in their Deformability matched to one another so that the edge region 5 of the upper part 4 can be put over the edge region 3 of the lower part 2, so as to detachably connect upper part 4 and lower part 2 with each other. Depending on the intended use, it may also be enough for you to do so at least in parts complementary edge regions are given and thus there is a detachable connection between the upper part 4 and lower part 2.

Das Unterteil 2 weist im vorliegenden Fall zwei leicht konische Vertiefungen als Aufnahme 6 für eine Primärverpackung 7 auf. Letztere umfasst einen relativ niedrigen Becher 8 mit einem oberen Rand 9, wobei in den Becher 8 eine Dessertmasse 10 so abgefüllt ist, dass sie mit ihrem ersteiften Oberteil den Becherrand 9 deutlich überragt. Das so in der Primärverpackung 7 gebundene Dessert soll dekorativ und appetitlich wirken, bedarf aber im Weiteren des Schutzes der Sekundär-Verpackung 1.The lower part 2 has in the present case two slightly conical depressions as a receptacle 6 for a primary packaging 7. The latter comprises a relatively low cup 8 with an upper edge 9, wherein in the cup 8 a dessert mass 10 is filled so that it clearly projects beyond the cup rim 9 with its ersteiften upper part. The dessert thus bound in the primary packaging 7 is intended to have a decorative and appetizing effect, but further requires the protection of the secondary packaging 1.

Die Aufnahmen 6 sorgen zunächst für eine ausreichende Beabstandung der Primärverpackungen 7 untereinander wie auch vom Oberteil 4 der Sekundär-Verpackung 1. Sie wirken jedoch nur so lange, wie die Sekundär-Verpackung 1 sich in Ruhestellung in der abgebildeten Lage befindet. Wird die Sekundär-Verpackung 1 dagegen ruckartig bewegt, geschüttelt oder gekippt, geraten die Primärverpackungen 7 aus ihrem ordnungsgemäßen Sitz und kann die nach wie vor druckempfindliche Dessertmasse 10 beschädigt werden.The receptacles 6 initially provide for a sufficient spacing of the primary packaging 7 with each other as well as the upper part 4 of the secondary packaging 1. However, they only act as long as the secondary packaging 1 is in the rest position in the illustrated position. If, on the other hand, the secondary packaging 1 is jerked, shaken or tilted, the primary packaging 7 gets out of its proper position and the still pressure-sensitive dessert mass 10 can be damaged.

Um die Primärverpackungen 7 gegen solche Einflüsse zu schützen, sind Anschläge 11 am Oberteil 4 vorgesehen, welche in das Innere des Oberteils 4 vorspringen und die Beweglichkeit der Primärverpackungen 7 einschränken, sobald das Oberteil 4 mit dem Unterteil 2 verbunden ist. Dann nämlich sind die Anschläge 11 dicht über dem Becherrand 9 angeordnet, so dass sich der Becher 8 praktisch nicht mehr von seiner Aufnahme 6 abheben kann, oder aber nur noch über ein unschädliches Spiel in seiner Aufnahme 6 verfügt.In order to protect the primary packaging 7 against such influences, stops 11 are provided on the upper part 4, which project into the interior of the upper part 4 and restrict the mobility of the primary packaging 7 as soon as the upper part 4 is connected to the lower part 2. Then namely the stops 11 are arranged close to the cup rim 9, so that the cup 8 practically can not stand out from its receptacle 6, or only has a harmless game in its receptacle 6.

Im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß den Fig. 1-3 sind die Anschläge 11 durch einfache seitliche Einprägungen im Oberteil 4 gebildet. Dabei sind je Becher 8 zwei sich diametral gegenüberliegende Anschläge 11 vorgesehen.In the illustrated embodiment according to the Fig. 1-3 the stops 11 are formed by simple lateral impressions in the upper part 4. In this case, each cup 8 two diametrically opposed stops 11 are provided.

Das erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß den Fig. 4-6 lässt eine mehrreihige Anordnung von Primärverpackungen 7 in einer Sekundär-Verpackung 1 erkennen. Dabei sind wiederum Anschläge 11 vorgesehen. Diese sind zum Teil unmittelbar an der Haube des Oberteils 4 angeordnet. Dort bilden sie das untere Ende einer von der Oberseite ausgehenden Rille 12, welche sich danach in schwächerer Ausprägung als Rille 13 formstabilisierend nach unten hin fortsetzt.The embodiment of the invention according to the Fig. 4-6 shows a multi-row arrangement of primary packaging 7 in a secondary packaging 1. Again, stops 11 are provided. These are arranged partly directly on the hood of the upper part 4. There they form the lower end of an outgoing from the top groove 12, which then continues in a weaker form than groove 13 stabilizing downwards.

Wie weiter erkennbar, gehen von der Oberseite des Oberteils 4 Eintiefungen 14 aus, welche sich zwischen benachbarten Primärverpackungen 7 erstrecken und mit ihrer Unterseite weitere Anschläge 11 bilden. Die Eintiefungen 14 haben hier die Form eines sich nach unten verjüngenden Kegelstumpfes. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel verteilen sich jeweils drei Anschläge 11 über den Rand 9 jedes Bechers 8. Die Wirkungsweise entspricht ansonsten derjenigen des zuvor beschriebenen Beispiels.As can further be seen, 4 recesses 14 extend from the upper side of the upper part, which extend between adjacent primary packaging 7 and form further stops 11 with their lower side. The recesses 14 here have the shape of a downwardly tapering truncated cone. In this embodiment, each three stops 11 are distributed over the edge 9 of each cup 8. The operation otherwise corresponds to that of the example described above.

Es versteht sich von selbst, dass die Eintiefungen 14 recht unterschiedlich gestaltet sein können, vor allem zapfenförmig mit unterschiedlichen Querschnitten (rund, oval, rechteckig, quadratisch, kreuzförmig), aber auch nutartig, also beispielsweise von Längsseite zu Längsseite und/oder Schmalseite zu Schmalseite des haubenförmigen Oberteils 4 durchlaufend, wie auch in anderer Form.It goes without saying that the recesses 14 can be designed quite differently, especially peg-shaped with different cross-sections (round, oval, rectangular, square, cross-shaped), but also groove-like, so for example from long side to long side and / or narrow side to narrow side the hood-shaped upper part 4 continuously, as well as in another form.
