The segmented tray of plastic to hold portions of foodstuff has portion bowls (1) separable along design parting lines (5) with corresponding material weakening. The design parting lines are constructed in wave form and the material of the edge flange (4) is broken along these parting lines with the exception of the narrow break sections forming the connection between adjacent edge flanges. The wave form of the parting lines corresponds to a sine form or something close to it.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Segmentschale aus einem Kunststoffmaterial zur Aufnahme von Portionen eines Lebensmittels, wie Schweinemett, mit voneinander trennbaren Portionsschalen, die nach außen abgewinkelte, in der Verbundlage in einer gemeinsamen Ebene liegende Randstege haben, von denen die einander benachbarter Portionsschalen entlang von Sollbruchlinien mit entsprechender Materialschwächung miteinander verbunden sind.The invention relates to a segmental shell made of a plastic material for receiving portions of a food, such as pigs, with separable serving bowls, which have outwardly angled, lying in the composite layer in a common plane edge webs, of which the adjacent portion shells along predetermined breaking lines are connected to each other with appropriate material weakening.

Bei bekannten Segmentschalen dieser Art erstrecken sich die die Randstege benachbarter Portionsschalen voneinander abteilenden Sollbruchlinien in gerader Richtung, sie sind dementsprechend geradlinig. Macht man die Materialschwächung im Bereich der Sollbruchlinien zu stark, ergibt sich ein labiler Verbund der Portionsschalen miteinander. Dies kann beim Befüllen und weiteren Handling noch vor dem bestimmungsgemäßen Abteilen der Portionsschalen voneinander zu einem Auseinanderbrechen der Segmentschale führen. Läßt man im Bereich der Sollbruchlinien das Kunststoffmaterial relativ dick, erschwert dies das Abtrennen einer der Portionsschalen von dem Verbund mit den übrigen.In known segment shells of this type, the edge webs of adjacent portion shells extend from each other dividing predetermined breaking lines in a straight line, they are accordingly rectilinear. If one makes the material weakening in the area of the predetermined breaking lines too strong, a labile combination of the portion shells results with one another. This can lead to a breakup of the segment shell during filling and further handling even before the intended compartmentalization of the portion cups. If the plastic material is made relatively thick in the region of the predetermined breaking lines, this makes it more difficult to separate one of the portion dishes from the composite with the others.

Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Segmentschale der vorgenannten Art zu schaffen, die zum einen für das Handling nach der Herstellung, für das insbesondere maschinelle Befüllen, den sich daran anschließenden Transport und die weitere Handhabung eine ausreichende Stabilität aufweist, andererseits jedoch ein Abtrennen der einzelnen Portionsschalen aus dem Verbund ohne großen Kraftaufwand ermöglicht.The invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a segment shell of the aforementioned type, on the one hand for handling after manufacture, for the in particular mechanical filling, the subsequent transport and further handling has sufficient stability, on the other hand, however, allows separation of the individual serving bowls from the composite without much effort.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Segmentschale der eingangs genannten Art nach der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß die Sollbruchlinien in Wellenform ausgebildet und entlang dieser gewellten Sollbruchlinien das Material der Randstege mit Ausnahme von schmalen Sollbruchstegen durchbrochen ist.This object is achieved with a segment shell of the type mentioned according to the invention in that the predetermined breaking lines formed in waveform and along these wavy lines of weakness the material of the edge webs is broken except for narrow break webs.

Für die Erfindung ist wesentlich, daß aufgrund der gewellten Sollbruchlinien die Randstege der miteinander verbundenen Portionsschalen sozusagen miteinander verzahnt sind. Dadurch ergibt sich insbesondere in der gemeinsamen Ebene, in der beim Verbund der Portionsschalen deren Randstege liegen, eine hohe Festigkeit. Andererseits lassen sich die schmalen Sollbruchstege im Bereich der Sollbruchlinien aufgrund deren Wellenform so anordnen, daß sie unterschiedliche Biegelinien aufweisen. Dies erhöht die Festigkeit der Portionsschalen senkrecht zur Ebene der Randstege in der verbundlage. Andererseits können deshalb die schmalen Sollbruchstege entlang den Sollbruchlinien so dimensioniert werden, daß dennoch ein leichtes Auseinanderbrechen der Portionsschalen möglich ist.For the invention is essential that due to the wavy lines of weakness, the edge webs of the interconnected portion shells are so to speak interlocked with each other. This results in particular in the common plane in which lie in the composite of the portion cups whose edge webs, high strength. On the other hand, the narrow breakaway webs can be arranged in the region of the predetermined breaking lines due to their waveform so that they have different bending lines. This increases the strength of the serving bowls perpendicular to the level of the edge webs in the composite layer. On the other hand, therefore, the narrow predetermined breaking webs along the predetermined breaking lines can be dimensioned so that nevertheless a slight breakup of the portion cups is possible.

Grundsätzlich können die Sollbruchstege dreieckig, rechteckig oder trapezförmig sein. In bevorzugter Ausführung haben die Sollbruchlinien die Form einer Sinuswelle oder ist die Wellenform zumindest der einer Sinuswelle angenähert.In principle, the predetermined breaking webs can be triangular, rectangular or trapezoidal. In a preferred embodiment, the predetermined breaking lines have the form of a sine wave or the waveform is at least approximated to that of a sine wave.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungsmerkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Further advantageous features of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung an einem Ausführungsbeispiel noch näher erläutert. Dabei zeigen:

Fig. 1
eine perspektivische Ansicht einer Segmentschale schräg von oben her gesehen und
Fig. 2
eine vergrößerte Draufsicht auf einen Abschnitt einer der Sollbruchlinien zwischen den Randstegen zweier benachbarter Portionsschalen der Segmentschale.
The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing of an embodiment. Showing:
Fig. 1
a perspective view of a segment cup seen obliquely from above and
Fig. 2
an enlarged plan view of a portion of the predetermined breaking lines between the edge webs of two adjacent portion shells of the segment shell.

Im einzelnen erkennt man an der in Figur 1 dargestellten Segmentschale vier Portionsschalen 1, die je einen Boden 2, Seitenwandungen 3 und davon abgewinkelte Randstege 4 aufweisen. Die vier Portionsschalen 1 sind in der Verbundlage gezeigt, jede einzelne Schale läßt sich aus dem Verbund ausbrechen, um ihren Inhalt zu verwerten. Vornehmlich handelt es sich dabei um ein empfindliches Lebensmittel, wie Schweinemett, welches je nach Bedarf in einer oder mehreren kleinen Portionen verzehrt werden kann. Deshalb ist jede der Portionsschalen 1 für sich nach dem Befüllen mittels einer Oberfolie verschlossen, die auf den jeweiligen Randsteg 4 aufgesiegelt ist.In detail, one recognizes four portion shells 1 on the segment shell shown in FIG. 1, each of which has a base 2, side walls 3 and edge webs 4 angled therefrom. The four serving dishes 1 are shown in the composite layer, each individual shell can break out of the composite to utilize their contents. First and foremost, it is a sensitive food, such as pig fat, which depending on Need can be consumed in one or more small portions. Therefore, each of the portion cups 1 is closed by itself after filling by means of a top film, which is sealed onto the respective edge web 4.

In der Verbundlage liegen die Randstege 4 aller Portionsschalen 1 in einer gemeinsamen Ebene. Zwischen den Randstegen 4 benach-barter Portionsschalen 1 sind Sollbruchlinien 5 ausgebildet, die eine Besonderheit aufweisen, denn sie verlaufen in einer Wellenform. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Sollbruchlinien 5 nach Art einer Sinuslinie gewellt, wodurch die Randstege 4 benachbarter Portionsschalen 1 durch die ausgeprägten Ausbuchtungen und Einbuchtungen miteinander verzahnt sind.In the composite layer, the edge webs 4 of all portion shells 1 lie in a common plane. Between the edge webs 4 adjacent Portionsschalen 1 break lines 5 are formed, which have a special feature, because they run in a waveform. In the exemplary embodiment, the predetermined breaking lines 5 are corrugated in the manner of a sine curve, as a result of which the edge webs 4 of adjacent portion shells 1 are interlocked with one another by the pronounced bulges and indentations.

Wie im einzelnen aus Figur 2 hervorgeht, ist das Kunststoffmaterial, aus dem die gesamte Segmentschale besteht, im Bereich der Sollbruchlinien 5 durchbrochen, und die Verbindung zwischen benachbarten Randstegen 4 besteht lediglich in Gestalt von schmalen Sollbruchstegen 6, die nach Art eines Fadenabschnittes die durch die Sollbruchlinie 5 bestehende Trennlinie überbrücken. Zweckmäßig sind je Halbwelle der Wellenform der Sollbruchlinien 5 zwei der schmalen Sollbruchstege 6 vorhanden, von denen jeweils zwei benachbarte - wie Figur 2 deutlich macht - in unterschiedlichen Richtungen verlaufen, also nicht miteinander parallel sind. Dies ist dadurch erreicht, daß die schmalen Sollbruchstege 6 jeweils außerhalb der Scheitelbereiche der Wellenform der Sollbruchlinien 5 angeordnet sind. Im übrigen haben die Sollbruchstege 6 entlang jeder Sollbruchlinie 5 gleiche Abstände voneinander.As can be seen in detail from Figure 2, the plastic material from which the entire segment shell is broken in the region of the predetermined breaking lines 5, and the connection between adjacent edge webs 4 consists only in the form of narrow breaking webs 6, which in the manner of a thread section through the Fracture line 5 Bridge existing dividing line. Suitably, each half-wave of the waveform of the predetermined breaking lines 5 two of the narrow predetermined breaking webs 6 are present, of which two adjacent - as Figure 2 makes clear - run in different directions, so are not parallel to each other. This is achieved in that the narrow predetermined breaking webs 6 are each arranged outside the apex areas of the waveform of the predetermined breaking lines 5. Moreover, the predetermined breaking webs 6 have the same distances from each other along each predetermined breaking line 5.

Bei dem bevorzugten quadratischen oder rechteckigen Umriß der Segmentschale grenzen die nach außen abgewinkelten Randstege 4 der vier Portionsschalen 1 mit Ecken 7 aneinander, die jeweils so abgeflacht sind, daß zwischen den vier Ecken 7 aus dem Kunststoffmaterial ein Plättchen 8 gebildet ist, welches von zweiten, geradlinig sich erstreckenden Sollbruchstegen 9 eingefaßt ist. Das Plättchen 8 hat eine quadratische oder rhombische Form, und die Diagonalen dieser Form sind auf die Sollbruchlinien 5 zwischen den Randstegen 4 der Portionsschalen 1 ausgerichtet. So geht' jede der gewellten Sollbruchlinien 5 in eine der Ecken 10 der geraden zweiten Sollbruchlinien 9 über. Durch die Konfiguration der zweiten Sollbruchlinien 9 entstehen beim Auseinanderbrechen der Portionsschalen 1 an den Bruchstellen keine scharfen Spitzen.In the preferred square or rectangular outline of the segmental shell, the outwardly angled edge webs 4 of the four serving dishes 1 adjoin one another with corners 7 which are each flattened so that between the four corners 7 of the plastic material a small plate 8 is formed, which of second, rectilinearly extending predetermined breaking webs 9 is enclosed. The plate 8 has a square or rhombic shape, and the diagonals of this shape are aligned with the predetermined breaking lines 5 between the edge webs 4 of the serving dishes 1. Thus, 'each of the wavy predetermined breaking lines 5 in one of the corners 10 of the straight second predetermined breaking lines 9 over. Due to the configuration of the second predetermined breaking lines 9, no sharp points are formed when the portioned dishes 1 break apart at the break points.
