Abstract

The invention relates to packaging for foodstuffs, in particular for animal foodstuffs. Said packaging consists of a casing that surrounds the foodstuffs. The packaging is characterised in that the casing has at least one zone containing perfumed substances that correspond to the foodstuffs contained in the packaging.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verpackung für Nahrungsmittel, insbesondere für Tiernahrungsmittel, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Schutzanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a packaging for foodstuffs, in particular for animal food, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Haustiere, insbesondere Hunde und Katzen, haben - wie auch der Mensch - Präferenzen für bestimmte Nahrungsmittel. Diese Präferenzen können von Mahlzeit zu Mahlzeit verschieden sein. Öffnet ein Tierhalter für sein Haustier eine Tiernahrungsmittelverpackung, beispielsweise eine Dose Katzenfutter, so kann es durchaus sein, daß das Haustier an diesem Tag diese bestimmte Nahrungsmittel-Zubereitung verschmäht.Pets, especially dogs and cats, have preferences for certain foods, as do humans. These preferences may vary from meal to meal. If an animal keeper opens an animal food package, such as a can of cat food, to his pet, it may well be that the pet spurns that particular food preparation that day.

Mittels prägnanter Farbgebung der Verpackung ist es heute bereits möglich, in gewissem Umfang dem Haustier eine Unterscheidungsmöglichkeit unterschiedlicher Tiernahrungsmittelverpackungen zu ermöglichen. Das Tier kann hier jedoch nur durch Erlernen und das Anwenden von Erfahrungswissen den für das Tier erkennbaren Farbunterschied der einzelnen Verpackungen den einzelnen unterschiedlichen darin enthaltenen Nahrungsmitteln zuordnen.By means of concise coloring of the packaging, it is already possible to a certain extent to enable the pet to differentiate between different animal food packages. However, the animal can only assign the color difference of the individual packagings recognizable to the animal to the different foods contained therein by learning and applying experience knowledge.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Verpackung für Nahrungsmittel, insbesondere Tiernahrungsmittel, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 so auszugestalten, daß auch ohne Erfahrungswissen über den Zusammenhang zwischen äußerem Erscheinungsbild einer Verpackung und deren Nahrungsmittelinhalt dem Tier eine Auswahlmöglichkeit gegeben wird.Object of the present invention is to provide a packaging for food, especially animal food, according to the preamble of claim 1 in such a way that the animal is given a choice even without knowledge of the relationship between the external appearance of a package and its food content.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer gattungsgemäßen Verpackung gemäß Anspruch 1 dadurch gelöst, daß die Mikrokapseln in einer Mikrokapselschicht angeordnet sind, die über eine Klebemittelschicht mit der Umhüllung bzw dem Träger verbunden ist und dass auf die Mikrokapselschicht eine abziehbare Versiegelungsfolie mittels einer weiteren Klebeschicht aufgebracht ist und die abziehbare Versiegelungsfolie in mehreren Schritten von der Mikrokapselschicht abziehbar ist, wobei sie in jedem Schritt nur von einem Teil der Mikrokapselschicht abziehbar ist und wobei sie nach dem Abziehen zur erneuten Bedeckung des freigelegten Teils der Mikrokapselschicht mit dieser wieder verklebbar ist.This object is achieved in a generic packaging according to claim 1, characterized in that the microcapsules are arranged in a microcapsule layer which is connected via an adhesive layer to the cover or the carrier and that a peelable sealing film is applied to the microcapsule layer by means of a further adhesive layer and the peelable sealing film is peelable from the microcapsule layer in several steps, wherein each step can only be peeled off from a part of the microcapsule layer and, after it has been peeled off, it can be glued to it again to cover the exposed part of the microcapsule layer.

Diese erfindungsgemäße Lösung ermöglicht es dem Tier, durch seinen Geruchssinn eine Auswahl zwischen unterschiedlichen Verpackungen und damit zwischen unterschiedlichen Nahrungsmittel-Inhalten zu treffen. Es riecht somit den Inhalt der Nahrungsmittelverpackung, obwohl diese noch geschlossen ist.This solution according to the invention makes it possible for the animal, through its sense of smell, to make a choice between different packages and thus between different food contents. It thus smells the contents of the food package, although it is still closed.

Beim Abziehen der Versiegelungsfolie, die über die weitere Klebeschicht auf den Mikrokapseln der Mikrokapselschicht anhaftet, werden die Mikrokapseln zerstört und die darin enthaltenen Duftstoffe werden freigegeben. Diese Ausführungsform ist deshalb von Vorteil, weil die Verpackung, solange die Versiegelungsfolie noch nicht abgezogen ist, geruchsneutral ist. Des weiteren verbleiben die Duftstoffe auch bei längerer Lagerung in den Mikrokapseln, ohne daß sie sich, wie dies bei einer einfachen Imprägnierung der Verpackung der Fall wäre, mit der Zeit verflüchtigen.Upon peeling off the sealing film which adheres to the microcapsules of the microcapsule layer via the further adhesive layer, the microcapsules are destroyed and the fragrances contained therein are released. This embodiment is advantageous because the packaging is odorless as long as the sealing film has not yet been peeled off. Furthermore, the fragrances remain even after prolonged storage in the microcapsules without them, as would be the case with simple impregnation of the packaging, with time, volatilize.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist dabei, daß die abziehbare Versiegelungsfolie in mehreren Schritten von der Mikrokapselschicht abziehbar ist, wobei sie in jedem Schritt nur von einem Teil der Mikrokapselschicht abziehbar ist und wobei sie nach dem Abziehen zur erneuten Abdeckung des freigelegten Teils der Mikrokapselschicht mit dieser wieder verklebbar ist. Dies erlaubt eine mehrmalige Freisetzung der Duftstoffe. So kann beispielsweise dem Haustier eine Auswahl von mehreren Verpackungen vorgelegt werden, wobei sich das Haustier dann an dem Duft der einzelnen Verpackungen orientieren und eine Auswahl treffen kann. Die nicht ausgewählten Verpackungen können dann durch Wiederverkleben der Versiegelungsfolie für eine nächste Mahlzeit ungeöffnet aufgehoben werden, wo das Tier dann erneut die Möglichkeit hat, von dieser bereits einmal zur Auswahl gestandenen Verpackung eine Duftprobe zu nehmen.It is particularly advantageous that the peelable sealing film is peelable in several steps from the microcapsule layer, wherein it is removable only in a part of the microcapsule layer in each step and wherein it can be glued after peeling to re-cover the exposed part of the microcapsule layer with this again , This allows a repeated release of the fragrances. Thus, for example, the pet can be presented with a selection of several packages, with the pet then being able to orientate itself to the scent of the individual packages and make a selection. The unselected packages may then be unopened by re-adhering the sealing foil for a next meal, where the animal will again have the opportunity to take a sample of the fragrance from this once-selected package.

Aus der DE 44 44 440 A1 ist es grundsätzlich bekannt, eine Verpackung aus Papier, Pappe oder Karton mit einem Geruchsstoff zu versehen, der für Ungeziefer unangenehm ist und daher auf das Ungeziefer eine abschreckende Wirkung hat. Auf diese Weise soll der Inhalt der Verpackung vor Ungezieferbefall geschützt werden können.From DE 44 44 440 A1 it is generally known to provide a packaging made of paper, cardboard or cardboard with an odorant, which is unpleasant for vermin and therefore has a deterrent effect on the vermin. In this way, the contents of the packaging should be protected against vermin infestation.

Das deutsche Gebrauchsmuster 298 09 384 U1 offenbart Duftstreifen zur Geruchsverbesserung, in denen ein auf den Duftstreifen aufgebrachter Duftstoff mit einer Schutzfolie versiegelt ist.German Utility Model 298 09 384 U1 discloses fragrance strips for improving odor, in which a fragrance applied to the fragrance strip is sealed with a protective film.

Eine Verpackung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 ist aus US-A-4 720 423 bekannt.A package according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from US-A-4,720,423.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnung näher erläutert in dieser zeigt die einzige Figur eine Tierfutterdose, die entsprechend der vorliegenden Erfindung einen Duftstoffe enthaltenden Bereich aufweist.The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing, in which the sole figure shows an animal feed can which, according to the present invention, has an area containing fragrances.

Die Figur zeigt eine Tierfutterdose 1, die beispielsweise aus Weißblech besteht und an ihrem Außenumfang mit einer Bedruckung oder einer Banderole 10 aus Papier oder Kunststoff versehen ist. Auf dem oberen stirnseitigen Deckel 12 der Dose 1 ist ein Bereich 2 vorgesehen, der Duftstoffe enthält, die den gleichen Geruch abgeben wie das in der Tierfutterdose enthaltene Tiernahrungsmittel. Es ist dort ein Trägerstreifen 14 angebracht, der eine Mikrokapselschicht 16 aus Duftstoffe enthaltenden Mikrokapseln 18 aufweist. Die Mikrokapselschicht 16 ist mittels einer ersten Klebemittelschicht 20 auf dem oberen Deckel 12 der Dose 1 befestigt. Auf der von der Dose 1 abgewandten Seite der Mikrokapselschicht 16 ist diese mit einer weiteren Klebemittelschicht 22 versehen, die eine Schutz- oder Versiegelungsfolie 24 auf der Mikrokapselschicht 16 fixiert.The figure shows an animal food can 1, which consists for example of tinplate and is provided on its outer periphery with a printing or a band 10 made of paper or plastic. On the upper front cover 12 of the can 1, a region 2 is provided which contains fragrances that give off the same odor as the animal food contained in the animal feed can. There is attached a carrier strip 14 having a microcapsule layer 16 of microcapsules 18 containing perfume. The microcapsule layer 16 is fixed by means of a first adhesive layer 20 on the upper lid 12 of the can 1. On the side facing away from the can 1 of the microcapsule layer 16, this is provided with a further adhesive layer 22 which fixes a protective or sealing film 24 on the microcapsule layer 16.

In der Figur ist dargestellt, daß die Versiegelungsfolie 24 etwa zu zwei Dritteln von der Mikrokapselschicht 16 abgezogen ist, wobei in diesem freigelegten Teil 16', 16" der Mikrokapselschicht 16 die mikrokapseln 18 durch das Abziehen der Versiegelungsfolie 24 und der mit ihr verbundenen weiteren Klebeschicht 22 zerstört worden sind, so daß die darin enthaltenen Duftstoffe freigesetzt worden sind. In dem Teil 16"' der Mikrokapselschicht 16, auf dem die Versiegelungsfolie 24 noch unverändert klebt, sind die Mikrokapseln 18 noch unzerstört und die Duftstoffe sind in diesen Mikrokapseln 18 noch enthalten. Die Mikrokapselschicht 16 ist im gezeigten Beispiel mit drei Abschnitten 16', 16'', 16"' von Mikrokapseln versehen, die durch Stege 17 voneinander getrennt sind. Auf diese Weise kann der Trägerstreifen 14 dreimal geöffnet werden, wobei jeweils die Mikrokapseln 18 eines einzigen der Abschnitte 16', 16" , 16" ' zerstört und deren Duftstoffe freigesetzt werden. Die Tierfutterdose 1 kann somit zu drei unterschiedlichen Zeitpunkten dem Haustier zur Auswahl angeboten werden.The figure shows that the sealing film 24 is stripped about two-thirds of the microcapsule layer 16, in which exposed portion 16 ', 16 "of the microcapsule layer 16 the microcapsules 18 are peeled off the sealing film 24 and the further adhesive layer bonded thereto In the part 16 "'of the microcapsule layer 16, on which the sealing film 24 still adheres unchanged, the microcapsules 18 are still intact and the fragrances are still contained in these microcapsules 18 , The microcapsule layer 16 in the example shown is provided with three sections 16 ', 16'',16'"of microcapsules separated by webs 17. In this way, the carrier strip 14 can be opened three times, with each microcapsule 18 of a single destroyed the sections 16 ', 16 ", 16"' and released their perfumes become. The animal food can 1 can thus be offered to the pet for selection at three different times.

Das in der Figur gezeigte Ausführungsbeispiel der erfindungsgemäßen mit einem Duftstoff versehenen Verpackung ist einfach und kostengünstig zu fertigen, da die bislang verwendeten Verpackungen, unabhängig davon, ob es sich um Weißblechdosen oder um Kartonverpackungen oder um vakuumverschweißte Beutel handelt, unverändert weiter eingesetzt werden können; sie müssen lediglich mit einem entsprechend dem gezeigten Beispiel der Erfindung ausgebildeten Trägerstreifen 14 mit Duftstoffe enthaltenden Mikrokapseln 18 zusätzlich versehen werden.The embodiment shown in the figure of the invention provided with a fragrance packaging is simple and inexpensive to manufacture, since the packaging used so far, regardless of whether it is tinplate cans or cardboard packaging or vacuum-sealed bags, can continue to be used unchanged; they merely need to be provided with microcapsules 18 containing scents containing fragrance-containing carrier strips 14 in accordance with the illustrated example of the invention.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf das obige Ausführungsbeispiel beschränkt, das lediglich der allgemeinen Erläuterung des Kerngedankens der Erfindung dient. Im Rahmen des Schutzumfangs kann die erfindungsgemäße Verpackung vielmehr auch andere als die oben beschriebenen Ausgestaltungsformen annehmen.The invention is not limited to the above embodiment, which merely serves to generally explain the essence of the invention. Within the scope of protection, the packaging according to the invention may assume other than the embodiments described above.

Bezugszeichen im Anspruch, der Beschreibung und den Zeichnungen dienen lediglich dem besseren Verständnis der Erfindung und sollen den Schutzumfang nicht einschränken.Reference signs in the claim, the description and the drawings are only for a better understanding of the invention and are not intended to limit the scope.
