  • the present invention is based on the object, in particular for presentation foodstuffs such as fish and fish products to provide an appealing presentation of the product by simple means while avoiding damage.
  • the packaging according to the invention consists of a shell element and a sheath made of foil material.
  • the shell element has a bottom element and at least one Side wall.
  • the film material surrounds the shell element and holds the at least one sidewall in an upright position.
  • the erected Position forms the at least one side wall at an angle with the bottom element and is in particular inclined out of a main plane of the floor element.
  • the shell element is flat with the or Sidewalls. Is the envelope applied, the side wall is erect, the bent fold line prevents them from bending over on the bottom element, so that a cup-shaped Packaging is created.
  • Under a curved fold line in the context of the invention is any not completely straight line understood, so for example also piecewise straight Traverses or kinked sections with a piecewise straight or curved course.
  • two side walls are provided, which are opposite to each other Side of the floor element are articulated. But there are also configurations with one, three or more side walls possible.
  • the fold lines of the side walls are preferably curved in opposite directions, wherein the bottom element, starting from the center of the fold lines an increasing width has.
  • the floor element is given a waisted shape by the curved fold line.
  • the fold line has approximately the shape of a circular or hyperbola, wherein the fold lines are oppositely curved opposite each other.
  • each of the side walls has one along the Floor element varying wall height in the erected position. In the erected Position is the bottom element below and the edge of the side walls form the lateral upper edge of the shell.
  • the side walls have a curved top Edge, preferably with a region of greater wall height and a region of lesser Wall height.
  • the regions of each side wall preferably form a wavy top Edge.
  • the side walls are congruent, so formed the same shape, and with arranged opposite orientation on the bottom element, so that the area larger Wall height on one side wall the area with lower wall height on the other Side wall opposite.
  • the side walls have rounded corners.
  • Due to the curved fold line has the bottom element in the erected state of Sidewalls a curved shape in which the edges of the floor element between the Sidewalls are raised. With the curved fold line for the side elements emerges the flat blank a bowl - shaped container with two erected side walls and a curved floor element.
  • the bottom element preferably each has a straight edge between the Side walls, for example, parallel to each other.
  • a shrink film is preferred as a wrapper for the packaging according to the invention intended.
  • a shrink film exerts in the shrunk on one to the center of the Container directed force on the side walls. Usually this power makes one special design of the blank required, so that by the shrink film applied force of the container is not deformed.
  • the force of the shrink film is just exploited to the packaging in the to hold upright position.
  • the side walls can not due to the shrink film fold away to the outside.
  • a folding inwards to the bottom element is not possible because the fold lines are bent and so the appropriately deformed floor element a Folded inside prevents.
  • the insert may be the bottom element strengthen.
  • the shell element For the production of the shell element offer a number of different Materials on.
  • the shell element made of cardboard material, for example Paper or cardboard material to be made.
  • the cardboard material can with a corresponding be provided grease and water impermeable coating.
  • the shell element may also be made of a plastic material.
  • a plastic material for example polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE) or a mixture of these plastic materials.
  • foamed plastic as packaging material, for example Styropor® or a suction fleece layered applied on its outside a dense film and a has perforated film on the inside.
  • wood or wood veneer or To use combinations of other materials with wood are possible.
  • the object of the invention is also achieved by a method for packaging a Food with the features of claim 26 solved.
  • the inventive method is particularly for the packaging of fish and Fish products and fresh and smoked fish.
  • a first Process step is on an elongated blank with two opposite Side walls placed the food to be packaged.
  • the side walls are over one curved fold line connected to the blank.
  • Folding line is here again general any line in the blank which allows the sidewalls to bend, in particular also folded lines and rill lines.
  • a second step is at the inventive method of cutting with the food in a film tube introduced, which is locked at head and foot end.
  • the Shrunk film, with the side walls of the blank are erected and a Floor element is curved outwards.
  • the Food placed on a flat blank, from which a cup-shaped packaging which forms a shrink film.
  • the side walls are easily positioned so that the sealed Foil tube slightly straightens the side walls.
  • Foil tube and fold lines are in the inventive method dimensioned such that the sealed film tube the Sidewalls slightly upright.
  • the sizing follows so that when at a 20 to 60% shrink shrinking the side walls due to the shrinkage to be raised.
  • Fig. 1 shows a developed blank 10 for the packaging according to the invention.
  • Blank has a bottom element 12 and two side walls 14 and 16.
  • the side walls 14 and 16 are hinged on curved fold lines 18 and 20 on the bottom element, wherein the Folding lines can be designed as creasing or scoring lines.
  • the bottom member 12 has two edges 22 and 24 which are parallel between the side walls 14 and 16 are lost.
  • the bottom element 12 has a quadrangular shape with two parallel have edges 22 and 24 and two inwardly curved fold lines 18 and 20. hereby the bottom element 12 is given a waisted shape.
  • the side walls 14 and 16 are congruent and reversed on different sides of the Floor element 12 articulated.
  • the side wall 14 has an upper edge 22, so that the Side member has a varying along the bottom element 12 height. In the unwound representation in Fig. 1, the height of the side wall 14 results by the distance the upper edge 22 of the fold line 18.
  • Side wall 16 has the same course of the upper edge 28, however, the change in sidewall height is in opposite Direction to the side wall 14.
  • the packaging has only two upright Side walls.
  • Fig. 2 shows a perspective view of the package with a shrink film 30.
  • the shrink film 30 is indicated by a few lines.
  • the However shrink film is without wrinkles, creases or the like on the blank 10th shrunk.
  • the side walls 14 and 16 close a right Angle with the bottom element 12 a.
  • the shrink film 30 runs around the shell, so the Floor element and the side walls 14 and 16.
  • an auxiliary line A is shown, which has a storage area for the packaging suggests. It can be clearly seen that the packaging along the edges 22 and 24 of the Substrate is spaced by the height h. The distance h depends on the curvature of the Folding lines 18 and 22 from. By raising the edges 22 and 24, the bottom element 12 forms a trough-like receptacle for the fish or fish products to be packaged (not shown).
  • a receptacle for the absorption of water and / or fat be provided, which consists for example of a coated nonwoven material. It is too possible to insert into the bottom element 12 an additional reinforcing insert, which is the Reinforced floor element.
  • the packaging may vary depending on the fish or fish product to be packaged consist of different materials.
  • a cardboard in addition to a fat and water-impermeable layer is provided.
  • a plastic foam material for example made of Styrofoam® provided be.
  • Figure 4 shows schematically a view of the packaging process.
  • a first step 32 the flat blank 10 is supplied, the fish to be packaged on the bottom element 12th placed.
  • the shell member 10 may be provided with an absorbent nonwoven material. This can either be done separately - before the fish is placed on the shell element be placed or glued to the shell element.
  • a second stage 34 is the Shell element inserted in a film tube and welded to the head and foot. The circumference of the film tube placed around the package is at the rebate depth Final volume of the packaging and the amount of gas in the inert gas atmosphere matched.
  • the Foil material can either already be available as a closed film tube, or as a film web which is closed along the longitudinal direction to a tube.
  • the film bag thus formed is sealed in step 34 prior to sealing with a Protective gas atmosphere filled.
  • the finished bag 36 subsequently enters a Shrink tunnel 38.
  • throughput speed and temperature are the same matched so that the film bag 36 shrinks to the desired final volume.
  • the Film quality is chosen so that the film shrinks by 40 to 60%.
  • the Rebate depth of the fold line is chosen here depending on the material used. The erection of the side walls takes place in the shrink tunnel 38 with contraction of the Shrink film.
  • Figure 5 a shows a cross section through the not erected shell element with the Floor element 12 and the side walls 14 and 16. As from the circled detail view identifiable, this was the folding lines 18 and 20, a groove depth of one-third of Material thickness selected.
  • FIGS. 5 b and c show the result at this groove depth Shrink wrap 30 force is not sufficient to the side walls 14 and 16 fully erect. The resistance exerted by the fold lines is too large. As well as can be seen in Figure 5 c, form outwardly inclined side walls.
  • Figures 6 a to 6 c show the opposite case, with a groove depth of approximately two-thirds the material thickness was selected.
  • the too deep groove depth, about two thirds of the Material strength, leads to too weak a drag force through the side walls, so that the Shrink film the side walls inwardly tends (see Figure 6 c).
  • Figures 7 a to 7 c show the embodiment of the invention, in which the groove depth is approximately half the material thickness is. With this groove depth is achieved that at the Processing the pages substantially erect upright.
