Abstract

A vending pack has a simple construction with a paper backing sheet of selected size onto which is bonded a cover sheet of any selected material, e.g. a transparent cover. The cover sheet is bonded to the backing sheet along three sides, leaving the fourth side for filling and access. Labelling is printed directly onto either sheet. The packs can be made in a continuous process using continuous feed sheet material.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Beutel zum Transportieren bzw. Aufbewahren von Gegenständen. insbesondere Lebensmittteln.The invention relates to a bag for transporting or storing objects. especially food.

Derartige Beutel sind bekannt. Sie dienen zum Verpacken insbesondere von Fleisch- und Wurstwaren sowie von Back- und Konditorwaren. Derartige Beutel werden aus einer zu einem Schlauch gebogenen Papierbahn mit seitlichen Falzen gefertigt, die an der Verbindungsstelle längs verklebt, geschnitten und am unteren Ende umgefalzt und ebenfalls verklebt wird.Such bags are known. They are used for packaging in particular meat and Sausages and pastry and confectionery. Such bags are from one to a Hose curved paper web with side seams made at the joint longitudinally glued, cut and folded at the bottom and also glued.

Allerdings sind die Möglichkeiten derartiger Beutel begrenzt. Zum einen ist es nicht möglich, einen Teil des Beutels transparent auszubilden, so daß der darin enthaltene Gegenstand erkennbar ist, was beispielsweise bei unterschiedlichen Sandwiches das Erkennen der verschiedenen Sorten erleichtert. Zum anderen ist es nicht möglich, sehr große Beutel, beispielsweise zum Transport mehrerer französischer Stangenweißbrote, anzufertigen, da es keine Maschinen gibt, mit denen eine Papierbahn entsprechend großer Breite zu einem Schlauch geformt werden kann.However, the possibilities of such bags are limited. For one thing, it is not possible make a part of the bag transparent, so that the object contained therein recognizable is what, for example, different sandwiches, the recognition of different varieties facilitated. On the other hand it is not possible to have very large bags, for example for transport several French bars of white bread, since there are no machines with which a paper web of correspondingly large width can be formed into a tube.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es somit, eine neue Art von Beuteln zu schaffen, die zumindest eines der oben genannten Probleme lösen und preisgünstig in großen Mengen herstellbar sind.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a new type of bags, at least one solve the above problems and inexpensive to produce in large quantities.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Beutel aus einer auf das Grundmaß des Beutels zugeschnittenen Papierbahn besteht, welche die erste Beutelseite bildet, und daß auf dieser ersten Beutelseite die zweite Beutelseite durch Kleben befestigt ist.This object is achieved in that the bag from a on the basic size the bag is cut paper web, which forms the first side of the bag, and that on this first side of the bag, the second side of the bag is attached by gluing.

Durch diese neue Art der Beutelfertigung werden neue Möglichkeiten eröffnet: Zum einen können Beutel gefertigt werden, deren Beutelseiten aus verschiedenen Materialien (z.B. Papier und transparenter Kunststoff) bestehen und zum anderen können mit herkömmlichen Maschinen größere Beutel als bisher gefertigt werden. Beide Vorteile können kombiniert werden, so daß aufgrund der vorliegenden Erfindung nunmehr auch größere Beutel als die bekannten mit Beutelseiten aus verschiedenen Materialien herstellbar sind. This new way of bag production opens up new possibilities: Firstly For example, pouches can be made whose pouches are made of different materials (e.g., paper and transparent plastic) and on the other can with conventional machines larger bags than previously manufactured. Both advantages can be combined, so that due to the present invention now also larger bags than the known with Bag sides made of different materials can be produced.

Eine erste Ausführungsform der Erfindung besteht darin, daß die zweite Beutelseite aus transparentem Material, insbesondere Kunststoff besteht.A first embodiment of the invention is that the second side of the bag transparent material, in particular plastic.

Hierdurch wird es möglich, den Beutelinhalt auch im verpackten Zustand zu erkennen, so daß beispielsweise ein Abpacken der Ware im voraus ermöglicht wird. Es können z.B. bereits in Beutel verpackte Sandwiches mit unterschiedlichen Füllungen durch den Kunden voneinander unterschieden werden, was zum einen hygienischer ist (das Befüllen kann unabhängig von dem Kassiervorgang erfolgen) und zum anderen einen Zeitgewinn beim Verkaufen in Stoßzeiten mit sich bringt.This makes it possible to recognize the bag contents even in the packaged state, so that For example, a packaging of the goods is made possible in advance. It can e.g. already in Bags packed sandwiches with different fillings by the customer from each other which is more hygienic (the filling can be independent of the Cashier process done) and on the other a time gain when selling at peak times brings.

Hierbei ist es zweckmäßig, daß die zweite Beutelseite mit drei Längsnähten an der ersten Beutelseite befestigt ist.It is expedient that the second side of the bag with three longitudinal seams on the first Bag side is attached.

Über die vierte offene Seite wird der Beutel befüllt.About the fourth open side of the bag is filled.

Weiterhin ist es sinnvoll, daß die zweite Beutelseite mit einem Heißschmelzkleber an der ersten Beutelseite befestigt ist.Furthermore, it makes sense that the second side of the bag with a hot melt adhesive on the first Bag side is attached.

Heißschmelzkleber ermöglichen das Verkleben unterschiedlicher Materialien miteinander und sind zudem in lebensmittelechter Qualität erhältlich.Hot melt adhesives allow the bonding of different materials together and are also available in food grade quality.

Erfindungsgemäß ist ebenfalls vorgesehen, daß die erste Beutelseite auf einer Seite, vorzugsweise auf ihrer der zweiten Beutelseite zugewandten Seite, bedruckt ist.According to the invention it is also provided that the first side of the bag on one side, preferably on its side facing the second bag side, is printed.

Durch die transparente Beutelseite wird der Aufdruck nach Entnahme des Inhalts aus dem Beutel sichtbar und kann in einem Sachbezug zu dem Inhalt stehen.Through the transparent side of the bag, the imprint is removed after removing the contents from the bag visible and can be in a reference to the content.

Hierbei ist es vorteilhaft, daß die bedruckte Seite zur Versiegelung des Aufdrucks mit einer Beschichtung versehen ist. It is advantageous that the printed side to seal the imprint with a Coating is provided.

Die Beschichtung verhindert den direkten Kontakt zwischen dem Inhalt des Beutels und dem Aufdruck.The coating prevents the direct contact between the contents of the bag and the Imprint.

Ein anderes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung besteht darin, daß die erste Beutelseite an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten umgefalzt ist, daß die zweite Beutelseite auf die Falze geklebt ist und daß an einer der verbleibenden Seiten die erste Beutelseite über die zweite Beutelseite gefalzt ist.Another embodiment of the invention is that the first bag side to two Folded opposite sides, that the second side of the bag is glued to the folds and on one of the remaining sides, the first side of the bag is folded over the second side of the bag.

Dieses Ausführungsbeispiel ist vor allem für sehr große Beutel von Bedeutung, wie sie für mehrere französische Stangenweißbrote verwendet werden (beispielsweise vom Format 40 x 85 cm), da durch die drei Falze eine große Stabilität des Beutels erreicht wird. Die aufgeklebte zweite Beutelseite wird somit nur geringfügig belastet.This embodiment is particularly important for very large bags, as they are for several French stick white breads are used (for example, 40x85 cm), since the three folds a great stability of the bag is achieved. The glued on second side of the bag is thus charged only slightly.

Nachfolgend werden Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung anhand von Zeichnungen beschrieben.Hereinafter, embodiments of the invention will be described with reference to drawings.

Wie aus den Fig. 1a und 1b ersichtlich, besteht der erfindungsgemäße Beutel aus einer ersten Beutelseite 1, die im vorliegenden Beispiel aus Papier besteht, und einer zweiten Beutelseite 2, welche hier aus transparentem Kunststoff besteht. Die zweite Beutelseite 2 ist mit drei Längsnähten 3aus Heißschmelzkleber (hotmelt) mit der ersten Beutelseite 1 verbunden. Auf der ersten Beutelseite 1 ist - auf der der zweiten Beutelseite 2 zugewandten Seite - ein Aufdruck 4 aufgebracht, der durch eine Beschichtung von dem Beutelinhalt getrennt ist und durch die transparente zweite Beutelseite 2 hindurch lesbar ist. Bei Entnahme des Inhalts aus dem Beutel wird der Aufdruck 4 sichtbar. As can be seen from FIGS. 1a and 1b, the bag according to the invention consists of a first one Bag side 1, which in the present example is made of paper, and a second bag side 2, which is made of transparent plastic. The second bag side 2 is three Longitudinal seams 3 made of hot melt adhesive (hotmelt) are connected to the first side of the bag 1. On the first side of the bag 1 is - on the side facing the second side of the bag 2 - an imprint. 4 applied, which is separated by a coating from the bag contents and through the transparent second bag side 2 is readable. When removing the contents from the bag the imprint 4 becomes visible.

Die Fig. 2a und 2b zeigen einen Großbeutel vom Format 85 x 40 cm. Dieser wird aus einer ersten Beutelseite 1 gebildet, die an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten umgefalzt wird. Auf die Falze 5 wird eine zweite (kleinere) Beutelseite 2 aufgeklebt. Anschließend wird an einer der verbleibenden Seiten ein weiterer Falz 5 um die zweite Beutelseite 2 gelegt und auf dieser verklebt. Es entsteht so ein sehr großer Beutel, der dennoch auf Maschinen von herkömmlicher Größe aus Papierbahnen in großen Mengen und somit wirtschaftlich gefertigt werden kann. Auch hier kann die zweite Beutelseite 2 aus transparentem Material bestehen, so daß der Beutelinhalt sichtbar ist.Figs. 2a and 2b show a large bag of the format 85 x 40 cm. This will be from a first Bag side 1 is formed, which is folded over on two opposite sides. On the folds 5 a second (smaller) bag side 2 is glued. Subsequently, at one of the remaining sides another fold 5 placed around the second side of the bag 2 and on this bonded. The result is a very large bag, yet on conventional machines Size of paper webs in large quantities and thus can be manufactured economically. Also Here, the second side of the bag 2 made of transparent material, so that the bag contents is visible.
