Definitions

  • the present invention relates to article carriers and blanks therefor provided of paper web material, such as corrugated cardboard or other paperboard material, for transporting a variety of goods, such as parcels.
  • Such article carrier with a closable cuboid structure are well known.
  • These article carriers are usually made of a one-piece blank, each having rectangular side and end walls and whose adjacent side edges are hinged together. On a free side edge a transverse tab is hinged, which is glued to the corresponding side or end wall or otherwise attached thereto.
  • Adjacent to the bottom edges of the end and side walls is disposed a floor structure comprising four rectangular bottom wall surfaces.
  • the bottom panels are hingedly connected together and to the bottom edges of the side or end panels as appropriate.
  • Adjacent to the top edges of the end and side walls is a ceiling structure comprising four rectangular top panels and each top panel is hingedly connected at its inside edge to the top edge of each adjacent end or side panel.
  • the bottom wall surfaces are formed such that the bottom wall surfaces adjacent the side walls in the erected article carrier are folded into face-touching and fully overlapping relationship and the bottom wall surfaces adjacent the end walls are folded into one surface-contacting relationship with the end walls are folded and with their vertical side edges in a fixed abutting relationship with the adjacent side walls.
  • Article carriers of the type described above are mass-produced goods whose profitability depends crucially on the production costs and the best possible utilization of the production machines used. Storage costs continue to make possible a space-saving storage of glued, but otherwise lying object carrier blanks desirable.
  • a blank for an article carrier having side panels and end panels.
  • the wall surfaces are hinged together along adjacent side edges and on one of the two free side edges a fastening tab is articulated.
  • Ceiling panels are each hingedly connected to the top edges of the side panels and the end panels.
  • First bottom panels are disposed adjacent the bottom edges of the side panels and second bottom panels are disposed adjacent the bottom edges of the end panels.
  • the first bottom panels are hingedly connected to the bottom edges of the side panels and the second bottom panels are hingedly connected along a side edge thereof to the first bottom panel therebetween.
  • the length of the side edges of the bottom panels is shorter than the length of the top and bottom edges of the end panels, and further includes locking means by which, in an erected condition, the second bottom panels may each be locked in face-to-face, partially overlapping relationship with respect to the end panels.
  • the locking means comprise bending tabs formed in the second bottom panels and hinged to each along a longitudinal bending line Floor panel are connected.
  • the bending tabs are substantially rectangular.
  • the bending tabs have a nose-like extension at their end opposite the longitudinal bending line.
  • the locking means further comprise recesses for respectively receiving the nose-like extensions of the bending tabs, the recesses being formed in the bending line connecting one side wall surface and one end wall surface and in the bending line connecting the other end wall surface and the fastening tab, respectively.
  • a Handgrifflasche is punched out of the end wall surfaces and the handle grips are each connected via a folding line with the end wall surfaces, so that in each case a handle opening is formed, each with formed in the second bottom wall surfaces handle openings in the erected state are aligned.
  • a second aspect of the present invention provides an article carrier having sidewall surfaces and end panels.
  • the wall surfaces are hinged together along adjacent side edges and on one of the two free side edges a fastening tab is articulated.
  • Ceiling panels are each hingedly connected to the top edges of the side panels and the end panels.
  • First bottom panels are disposed adjacent the bottom edges of the side panels and second bottom panels are disposed adjacent the bottom edges of the end panels.
  • the first bottom panels are hingedly connected to the bottom edges of the side panels and the second bottom panels are hingedly connected along a side edge thereof to the first bottom panel therebetween.
  • the length of the side edges of the bottom wall surfaces is shorter than the length of the top and bottom edges of the end wall surfaces and further comprising locking means, by means of which the second bottom wall surfaces each in a surface-touching, partially overlapping relationship with respect to the end wall surfaces are locked.
  • the locking means comprise bending tabs formed in the second bottom panels and each hingedly connected to the bottom panel along a longitudinal bending line.
  • the bending tabs are substantially rectangular.
  • the bending tabs have a nose-like extension at their end opposite the longitudinal bending line.
  • the locking means further comprise recesses for respectively receiving the nose-like extensions of the bending tabs, the recesses being formed in the bending line connecting one side wall surface and one end wall surface and in the bending line connecting the other end wall surface and the fastening tab, respectively.
  • a handgrip bottle is punched out of the end wall surfaces and the handle grips are each hingedly connected to the end wall surfaces via a fold line, so that a handle opening is formed in each of these, each being aligned with handle openings formed in the second bottom wall surfaces.
  • FIG. 1 shows the inner surface of a blank for an article carrier according to the invention.
  • the blank which is preferably formed from corrugated cardboard, has side wall surfaces 1, 2 and end wall surfaces 3, 4. These panels are hinged together along adjacent side edges. Along the outer side edge of the end wall surface 4, a transversely extending fastening tab 5 is articulated.
  • two longitudinal gripping holes 24, 25 and 26, 27 may be punched out, and in the upper sections of the end wall surfaces 3, 4 there is preferably one longitudinal gripping tab 22, 23 along a longitudinal bending line 30 , 31 hinged.
  • These handle grips 22, 23 each define a handle opening in the end panels 3, 4.
  • Top panels 10, 11, 12 and 13 are each pivotally connected to the top edges of the side panels 1, 2 and the end panels 3, 4.
  • First bottom panels 6, 8 are adjacent the bottom edges of the side panels 1, 2 and second bottom panels 7, 9 are disposed adjacent the bottom edges of the end panels 3, 4.
  • In the lower portions of the second bottom wall surfaces 7, 9 are preferably transversely extending handle holes 28, 29 punched out.
  • the first bottom wall surfaces 6, 8 are hingedly connected to the bottom edges of the side wall surfaces 1, 2, and the second bottom wall surfaces 7, 9 are hingedly connected along a side edge to the first bottom wall surface 8 interposed therebetween.
  • the length L1 of the side edges of the first and second bottom panels 6, 7, 8 and 9 is shorter than the length L2 of the top and bottom edges of the end panels 3, 4.
  • the blank further includes locking means by means of which, in an erected condition, the second bottom panels can each be locked in face-to-face, partially overlapping relationship with respect to the end panels.
  • each have a substantially rectangular bending tabs 14, 15 is formed, which is hingedly connected via a longitudinal bending line 18, 19 with the bottom wall surface.
  • the bending tabs 14, 15 folded out of the plane of their bottom wall surface over an angle of 180 ° and in the upright Article carrier are brought into an abutting relationship with the adjacent first side wall surface 1, as shown in Figure 2.
  • the bending tabs 14, 15 at the bending line 18, 19 opposite end each carry a nose-like extension 16, 17.
  • Corresponding to these nose-like extensions 16, 17 are in the side wall surface 1 and the end wall surface 3 and the end wall surface 4 and Fastening tab 5 connecting bending lines recesses 20, 21 are formed, which take the nose-like extensions 16 and 17 in the erected article carrier.
  • the bending tabs 14 and 15 are additionally fixed, which is advantageous when acting on the cuboid article carrier from the outside forces such as shock or pressure forces.
  • transverse gripping holes 28, 29 are punched out in the lower portions of the second bottom panels 7, 9.
  • the handle grips 22, 23 and the handle holes 28, 29 are accurately positioned and the handle grips 22, 23 are folded along their bend lines 30, 31 through the handle holes 28, 29 into the interior of the article carrier.
  • the handle grommets 28, 29 and the handle grips 22, 23 thus provide, if desired, an additional means for fixing the second bottom panels 7, 9 in the erected article carrier.
  • FIG. 2 shows the floor structure of an article carrier provided according to the invention. Thereafter, the first bottom wall surfaces 6 and 8 are folded into a surface-contacting, but only partially overlapping relationship. The same applies to the second bottom wall surfaces 7 and 9 in relation to the end wall surfaces 3 and 4, respectively. Bend tabs 14 and 15 are folded out of the plane of their bottom wall surfaces 7, 9 over an angle of 180 ° and face with their bending line Tab edge in fixed abutting relationship with the adjacent side panel 1. The side edge of bottom panel 7 and 9, respectively, is in fixed abutting relationship with the adjacent side panel 2.
  • the tab extensions 16 and 17 of the tab tabs 14 and 15 are in the recesses 20 , 21 engaged taken and thus secure the bending tabs 14, 15 additionally in their position, which is advantageous when acting on the cuboid-shaped article carrier from the outside, in particular on the side walls of shock and pressure forces.
  • the blanket structure according to the invention thus provides a blank for an article carrier which, given a given width and length of ceiling, side and end wall surfaces, significantly reduces the overall blank width.
  • the associated material savings are just as evident as the resulting space-saving storage of bonded flat-lying article carrier blanks.
  • the article carrier provided from the blank according to the invention also has the required stability and strength, because the floor structure according to the invention keeps the correspondingly folded bottom wall surfaces securely in position without the need for additional means for fixing these wall surfaces such as adhesive strips or staples.
  • the object carriers according to the invention are made of corrugated cardboard, then the utilization of the corrugated board production plants can finally be optimized with the blank according to the invention.
  • the overall cutting width can be considerably shortened by means of the provided bottom structure, so that three instead of the otherwise only two "benefits" are possible in the aforementioned conventional corrugated board production systems.
