Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zum Kennzeichnen von Transportkästen für darin einstellbare Transportgegenstände, wie beispielsweise Behälter, insbesondere zum Kennzeichnen von Getränkekästen mit Getränkeflaschen, wie Mehrwegkästen, mit wenigstens einem den Kasten umgebenden geschlossenen oder verschließbaren, die jeweilige Kennzeichnung oder dergleichen Informationen aufweisenden Band. Die Erfindung bezieht sich weiterhin auf einen Transportkasten, insbesondere Getränkekasten für Getränkeflaschen, mit einem solchen Band sowie auf ein Band zur Anordnung an einem solchen Transportkasten.The invention relates to a method for identifying transport boxes for therein adjustable transport items, such as containers, in particular for labeling beverage boxes with beverage bottles, such as reusable boxes, with at least one box surrounding closed or lockable, the respective label or the like information having tape. The invention further relates to a transport box, in particular drinks box for beverage bottles, with such a band and on a tape for placement on such a transport box.

technologischer Hintergrundtechnological background

In der Getränkeindustrie kommen immer mehr sogenannte Einheitskästen für Getränkeflaschen zum Einsatz, um diese nach dem Rückfluss vom Endverbraucher über den Handel zu den Getränkeherstellern wiederverwenden zu können.In the beverage industry more and more so-called unit boxes for beverage bottles are used in order to reuse them after the return flow from the end user via the trade to the beverage manufacturers.

Um eine Markenerkennbarkeit zu erreichen, weisen derartige Pool-Kästen Sichtöffnungen auf, welche die auf der Getränkeflasche aufgebrachte Marke des jeweiligen Getränkeherstellers erkennen lassen sollen. Diese Sichtöffnungen reichen jedoch nicht aus, um den Anforderungen an individuelles Produktmarketing zu genügen.In order to achieve brand recognition, such pool boxes have viewing openings which are intended to reveal the brand of the respective beverage manufacturer applied to the beverage bottle. However, these viewing openings are not sufficient to meet the requirements for individual product marketing.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Insoweit ist es bereits bekannt, Getränkekästen mit Banderolen, Papier-, Haft-, oder Adhäsionsetiketten zu versehen. Nachteilig bei den so gekennzeichneten standardisierten Kästen ist jedoch, dass für die Verwendung innerhalb eines Pools, in welchem mehrere Getränkehersteller zusammengeschlossen sind, die von anderen Getränkeherstellern des Pools stammenden Etiketten und/oder Banderolen vor der Wiederverwendung der Kästen zunächst entfernt werden müssen, was mit entsprechendem Aufwand verbunden ist.In that regard, it is already known to provide beverage boxes with banderoles, paper, adhesive, or adhesive labels. A disadvantage of the so-marked standardized boxes, however, is that for use within a pool in which several beverage producers are affiliated, originating from other beverage manufacturers of the pool labels and / or bands must first be removed before reuse of the boxes, which with appropriate Effort is connected.

Aus der EP-A-13 057 ist ein Kunststoffkasten für die Getränkeindustrie bekannt, mit einer auf den Behälter aufgeschrumpften und sich um diesen herum erstreckenden Kunststofffolie, welche mit dem Firmen- oder Markennamen oder sonstiger spezieller äußerer Kennzeichnung des jeweiligen Herstellers oder Handelsunternehmens versehen ist. Dabei soll das Band bei Bedarf durch Verwendung eines Messers entfernt werden können.From EP-A-13 057 a plastic box for the beverage industry is known, with a shrunk onto the container and extending therearound plastic film, which is provided with the company or brand name or other special external identification of the respective manufacturer or retail company. The tape should be removed if necessary by using a knife.

Problemproblem

Davon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zum Kennzeichnen von Transportkästen, insbesondere für Getränkekästen, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1, sowie einen Transportkasten, insbesondere einen Getränkekasten, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 4 dahingehend weiterzubilden, dass eine einfache Kennzeichnung des Kastens und ebenso eine einfache und schnelle Entfernung der Kennzeichnung ermöglicht ist.Based on this, the present invention seeks to further develop a method for identifying transport boxes, especially for beverage crates, according to the preamble of claim 1, and a transport box, in particular a beverage crate according to the preamble of claim 4, that a simple label of the box and also a simple and quick removal of the marking is possible.

Verfahrenstechnisch wird die Aufgabe gelöst durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1.Technically, the object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 1.

Dabei ist es vorgesehen, dass der Kasten von einem geschlossenen Band beziehungsweise Banderole umgebenden ist, aus der wenigstens eine Schlaufe gebildet ist, welche durch eine in der Umfangswandung des Kastens vorhandene Sichtöffnung hindurchgeführt wird und mindestens einen Transportgegenstand beziehungsweise eine als Sperrflasche dienende Getränkeflache derart umschlingt, dass das Band in Anlagestellung an dem Kasten gehalten ist.It is envisaged that the box is surrounded by a closed band or band, from which at least one loop is formed, which is provided by an existing in the peripheral wall of the box viewing opening is passed through and at least one transport item or serving as a stopper bottle surface so wraps around that the tape is held in abutment position on the box.

Durch die Erfindung lässt sich in einfacher Weise ein Band oder eine Banderole mit der Kennzeichnung des jeweiligen Getränkeherstellers an einem neutralen Einheitskasten anbringen, so dass auch bei Mehrweg-Poolkästen das individuelle Produktmarketing aktiv unterstützt wird.By means of the invention, a band or a banderole with the identification of the respective beverage manufacturer can be attached to a neutral unit box in a simple manner, so that individual product marketing is actively supported even in returnable pool boxes.

Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann die wenigstens eine Schlaufe auch zu einer den jeweiligen Transportgegenstand beziehungsweise Getränkeflasche vollständig umschließende Schlinge ausgebildet sein, wodurch die Banderole verliersicher an dem Kasten gehalten ist.According to one embodiment of the invention, the at least one loop may also be formed into a loop completely surrounding the respective transport article or beverage bottle, as a result of which the band is held captive on the box.

In der gleichen einfachen Weise wie das Fixieren des Bandes beziehungsweise der Banderole an dem Getränkekasten gestaltet sich auch deren Lösen von dem Kasten. Hierzu wird lediglich die von der jeweiligen Schlaufe umschlungene Getränkeflasche (Sperrflasche) aus dem Kasten entnommen, wodurch die Banderole selbsttätig abfällt. Üblicherweise geschieht dies beim Getränkefachhandel oder beim Endverbraucher. Selbst wenn der zum Getränkehersteller gelangende Mehrweg-Kasten noch eine Banderole aufweisen sollte, lässt sich diese ohne nennenswerten Aufwand entfernen.In the same simple manner as the fixing of the tape or the band to the beverage box also their release from the box designed. For this purpose, only the embraced by the respective loop beverage bottle (blocking bottle) is removed from the box, causing the band drops automatically. This usually happens at the beverage trade or at the end user. Even if the reusable box reaching the beverage manufacturer should still have a banderole, it can be removed without significant effort.

Vorrichtungstechnisch wird die Aufgabe gelöst durch einen Transportkasten mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 4.Device technology, the object is achieved by a transport box with the features of claim. 4

Vorzugsweise ist dabei die Schlaufe durch eine Öffnung des Kastens an dessen Schmalseite in das Kasteninnere geführt, wodurch sich das Band beziehungsweise die Banderole ohne Unterbrechung breitflächig über die werbetechnisch wirksamere Breitseite des Kastens erstreckt.Preferably, the loop is guided through an opening of the box at its narrow side into the box interior, whereby the band or the band extends without interruption over a broad area on the advertising technically effective broadside of the box.

Im Rahmen der Erfindung liegt es auch, daß das Band aus elastischem Material besteht. Hierdurch lassen sich Herstellungstoleranzen bei der Fertigung des geschlossenen oder verschließbaren Bandes ausgleichen.In the context of the invention, it is also that the band consists of elastic material. As a result, manufacturing tolerances in the manufacture of the closed or lockable band can be compensated.

Um eine harmonische und damit optisch ansprechende Einbeziehung des Bandes in den Kasten zu erreichen, empfiehlt es sich nach der Erfindung, dass das Band eine Breite aufweist, welche höchstens der Höhe des zugeordneten Öffnung des Kastens entspricht. Vorzugsweise sollte die Breite des Bandes auf die Breite der jeweiligen Sichtöffnung abgestimmt sein.In order to achieve a harmonious and thus visually appealing inclusion of the band in the box, it is recommended according to the invention that the band has a width which corresponds at most to the height of the associated opening of the box. Preferably, the width of the band should be matched to the width of the respective viewing aperture.

Besonders günstig ist es, wenn das Band aus, vorzugsweise recycelfähigem, Kunststoffmaterial, insbesondere Polyethylen, Polypropylen oder dergleichen Polymerisationsprodukte besteht. Derartige Bänder lassen sich kostengünstig und in einfacher Weise herstellen sowie mit der jeweiligen Kennzeichnung des Getränkeherstellers versehen. Selbstverständlich liegt es auch im Rahmen der Erfindung, als Band etwa Papier einzusetzen.It is particularly favorable if the band consists of, preferably recyclable, plastic material, in particular polyethylene, polypropylene or similar polymerization products. Such bands can be produced inexpensively and in a simple manner and provided with the respective identification of the beverage manufacturer. Of course, it is also within the scope of the invention to use paper as a band.

Auch bietet es sich an, das Band beziehungsweise die Banderole zusätzlich als Promotionsmittel einzusetzen. Beispielsweise können auf dem Band abnehmbare Sticker, Aufkleber, etwa für Kinder, aufgebracht sein.It also makes sense to additionally use the band or the band as a promotional tool. For example On the tape removable stickers, stickers, such as for children, can be applied.

Schließlich ist es nach der Erfindung vorgesehen, dass zur Bildung eines geschlossenen Bandes die Bandenden eines endlichen Bandabschnittes miteinander verschweißt und/oder verklebt sind.Finally, it is provided according to the invention that the band ends of a finite band section are welded together and / or glued together to form a closed band.

In den Figuren ist ein standardisierter Mehrweg-Getränkekasten dargestellt, wie er von Getränkeherstellern, die sich in einem Pool zusammengeschlossenen haben, verwendet werden.In the figures, a standardized reusable beverage box is shown, as it is used by beverage manufacturers who have merged into a pool.

Zur Markenerkennbarkeit, d.h. zur Kennzeichnung des jeweiligen Getränkeherstellers und/oder des jeweiligen Getränkes ist an diesem neutralen Einheitskasten ein Band 4 beziehungsweise eine Banderole angebracht, welche die entsprechende Kennzeichnung 3 oder Kennzeichnungen trägt.For brand recognition, i. for the identification of the respective beverage manufacturer and / or the respective beverage, a band 4 or a band is attached to this neutral unit box, which carries the corresponding marking 3 or markings.

Zur Fixierung wird das Band 4 zunächst lose um den Kasten 1 gelegt. Dann wird an der Schmalseite 9 des Getränkekastens 1 eine Schlaufe 5 aus dem Band 4 gebildet und durch die Sichtöffnung 6 an der Schmalseite 9 der Umfangswandung 8 des Kastens 1 in den Stellbereich einer am Rand der anzuordnenden Getränkeflasche 2 geführt. Dann wird die Getränkeflasche 2 in den Kasten eingestellt, so dass die Schlaufe 5 des Bandes 4 die als Sperrflasche für das Band 4 wirkende Getränkeflasche 2 umschlingt. Das Band 4 weist dabei eine solche Länge auf, dass das Band 4 gespannt wird und in Anlagestellung an dem Kastens 1 gehalten ist.For fixing the band 4 is first placed loosely around the box 1. Then, on the narrow side 9 of the drinks crate 1, a loop 5 is formed from the band 4 and guided through the viewing opening 6 on the narrow side 9 of the peripheral wall 8 of the box 1 in the adjustment range of a to be arranged beverage bottle 2. Then, the beverage bottle 2 is set in the box, so that the loop 5 of the band 4 wraps around acting as a stopper bottle for the band 4 beverage bottle 2. The band 4 has such a length that the band 4 is tensioned and held in abutment position on the box 1.

Verfahrenstechnisch kann es sich unter Umständen empfehlen, das Band 4 an dem bereits mit Getränkeflaschen bestückten Kästen 1 anzuordnen und zum Einführen der Schlaufe 5 die jeweilige Getränkeflasche lediglich anzuheben und wieder abzustellen.From a procedural point of view, it may be advisable to arrange the band 4 on the crates 1 already equipped with drinks bottles and to raise the respective beverage bottle for insertion of the loop 5 and to put it down again.

Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, dass die Schlaufe 5 im Bereich der Breitseite des Kastens 1 gebildet und durch eine Sichtöffnung 7 in der Umfangswandung des Kastens 1 eingeführt und mit einer Getränkeflasche 2 gehalten und gespannt wird.Of course, it is also possible that the loop 5 is formed in the region of the broad side of the box 1 and inserted through a viewing opening 7 in the peripheral wall of the box 1 and held with a beverage bottle 2 and tensioned.

Das Lösen des Bandes 4 beziehungsweise der Banderole von dem Kasten 1 gestaltet sich in gleicher einfacher Weise. Hierzu wird lediglich die Sperrflasche 2, welche in Anlagestellung des Bandes 4 an dem Kasten 1 von der Schlaufe 5 umschlungen ist, aus dem Kasten 1 herausgezogen, wodurch das Band 4 beziehungsweise die Banderole selbsttätig abfällt.The release of the band 4 or the band from the box 1 designed in the same simple manner. For this purpose, only the locking bottle 2, which is wrapped in contact position of the tape 4 on the box 1 of the loop 5, pulled out of the box 1, whereby the tape 4 or the band drops automatically.

Das Band 4 besteht bevorzugt aus reißfestem Kunststoffmaterial, wie beispielsweise Polyethylen, Propylen oder dergleichen Polymerisationsprodukte. Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, eine Banderole aus Papier einzusetzen.The band 4 is preferably made of tear-resistant plastic material, such as polyethylene, propylene or the like polymerization products. Of course it is also possible to use a paper band.
