Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft Stapel von Paneelen, insbesondere Laminatpaneelen, die zum Transport oder Lagern verpackt sind. Laminatpaneele sind im Allgemeinen in geschichteten Stapeln mit beispielsweise je 4 bis 10 Stück Paneelen verpackt. Die Stapel sind im Allgemeinen in transparente Folie eingeschweißt und / oder in speziell geformte bzw. gefaltete Verpackungspappe eingepackt. Bei den Folien handelt es sich beispielsweise um Schrumpffolien auf der Basis von Polyethylen, Polyvinylchlorid, oder Polyethylenterephthalat, Die Verpackung bzw. Folien sind gemäß der Verpackungsverordnung so hergestellt, dass Volumen und Masse auf das unmittelbar notwendige Maß begrenzt werden. Die Verpackung bzw. die Folie weist den Nachteil auf, dass sie leicht von Hand oder einem spitzen Gegenstand eingerissen werden können, um einzelne Paneele zu entnehmen.The present invention relates to stacks of panels, in particular laminate panels, packed for transport or storage. Laminate panels are generally packaged in stacked stacks of, for example, 4 to 10 panels each. The stacks are generally shrink-wrapped in transparent film and / or wrapped in specially formed or folded paperboard. The films are, for example, shrink films based on polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, or polyethylene terephthalate. The packaging or films are produced in accordance with the Packaging Ordinance in such a way that the volume and mass are limited to the amount which is strictly necessary. The package or film has the disadvantage that it can easily be torn by hand or a pointed object to remove individual panels.

Dies kann beispielsweise in einem Baumarkt der Fall sein. Regelmäßig wird die im Baumarkt ausgestellte Mitnahmeware von den Kunden geöffnet, um einzelne Paneele beispielsweise zwecks besserer Beurteilung der Oberflächengestaltung aus der Verpackung teilweise oder ganz herauszuziehen. Ferner kann bei senkrechtem Transport der Stapel in Verbindung mit der Scharfkantigkeit der Paneele die Folie an den äußeren Enden punktuell überbelastet werden und einreißen. Diese, insbesondere die in der Verpackung außen liegenden Paneele, lassen sich hinterher nur mühselig oder gar nicht wieder in die Verpackung einbringen. Aufgrund der bei Käufern im Allgemeinen vorhandenen Skepsis gegenüber geöffneten Verkaufspackungen hinsichtlich des Zustandes und der Qualität der Ware, sind die geöffneten Stapel im Allgemeinen nur schwer verkäuffich.This can for example be the case in a hardware store. The takeaway goods issued in the hardware store are regularly opened by the customers in order to partially or completely pull out individual panels from the packaging, for example, for a better assessment of the surface design. Further, in vertical transport of the stack in conjunction with the sharp edge of the panels, the film can be selectively overloaded at the outer ends and tear. These, in particular the outer panels in the packaging, can be laboriously or not put back into the packaging afterwards. Due to the general skepticism among buyers regarding open sales packs regarding the Condition and the quality of the goods, the opened piles are generally difficult to miss.

EP-A 1 437 456 offenbart in Fig. 8 und 9 einen Stapel aus mehreren geschichteten Paneelen, mit einer Verpackung des Stapels, mit Mitteln gegen Entfernen der Paneele aus der Verpackung, wobei die Mittel gegen Entfernen der Paneele wenigstens ein an einer Seite des Stapels, insbesondere der Schmalseite, angebrachtes aus gefalzter Pappe hergestelltes Haltelement aufweisen. EP-A 1 437 456 discloses in Figs. 8 and 9 a stack of several layered panels, with a package of the stack, with means for removing the panels from the package, the means for removing the panels at least one attached to one side of the stack, in particular the narrow side have made of folded cardboard holding element.

Vor dem Hintergrund der oben beschriebenen Nachteile ist es daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein en hinsichtlich der Verpackung verbesserten Stapel aus Paneelen zu schaffen.In view of the disadvantages described above, it is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a stack of panels which is improved in terms of packaging.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine gattungsgemäße Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved by a generic device with the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments emerge from the subclaims.

Der erfindungsgemäße Stapel besteht aus mehreren geschichteten Paneelen. Beispielsweise handelt es sich um Laminatponeele, Platten aus Sperrholz, Faserplatten oder Holzpaneele. Der Stapel weist ferner eine Verpackung auf. Es sind ferner Mittel gegen Entfernen der Paneele aus der Verpackung vorgesehen. Beispielsweise stellen diese Mittel einen welt reichenden Schutz vor Beschädigungen der Verpackung dar. Die Beschädigung kann beispielsweise durch mechanische Einwirkungen auf die Verpackung hervorgerufen werden. Beispielsweise entstehen diese mechanischen Beanspruchungen beim Transport des Stapels oder durch beabsichtigtes Einwirken mit einem spitzen Gegenstand auf die Verpackung. In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung schränken die Mittel gegen Entfernen der Paneele die Bewegungsfreiheit der Paneele im Stapel zusätzlich ein und stellen somit gegenüber herkömmlichen Verpackungen einen zusätzlichen Schutz gegen das Entfernen einzeiner Paneele aus der Verpackung dar. Dadurch wird vorteilhaft das Herausziehen und Herausnehmen einzelner Paneele aus dem Stapel erschwert oder verhindert.The stack according to the invention consists of several layered panels. For example, it concerns laminate pelées, sheets of plywood, fiberboard or wood panels. The stack also has a packaging. Means are also provided for removing the panels from the package. For example, these means represent a world-wide protection against damage to the packaging. The damage can be caused for example by mechanical effects on the packaging. For example, these mechanical stresses arise during transport of the stack or intentional exposure to a sharp object on the packaging. In a further embodiment, the means against removal of the panels additionally restrict the freedom of movement of the panels in the stack and thus provide additional protection against the removal of individual panels from the packaging in comparison to conventional packages. This advantageously makes it possible to extract and remove individual panels from the stack makes it difficult or impossible.

Gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung umfassen die Mittel gegen Entfernen der Paneele vorteilhaft ein Band um den Stapel. Durch das Band werden die Paneele aneinander fixiert. Ein Entfernen in Richtung des Bandverlaufes ist nicht bzw. nur nach Durchtrennen des Bandes möglich. Darüber hinaus können mehrere Bänder vorgesehen sein. In einer Ausgestaltung umfassen die Bänder den Stapel in Längs- und Querrichtung um den Stapel in allen Richtungen gegen ein Herausziehen einzelner Paneele abzusichern. Das Band besteht beispielsweise aus Papier, Polyethylen, Polypropylen oder Polyethylenterephthalat. Das Band kann in einer Ausgestaltung bedruckt sein, um zusätzlich als Werbeträger zu fungieren. Dessen vergleichsweise feste Fixierung am Stapel sorgt dafür, dass die auf dem Band vorgesehene Information nicht verloren geht oder die werbewirksame Wirkung nicht verloren geht.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the means for removing the panels advantageously comprise a band around the Stack. Through the band, the panels are fixed together. A removal in the direction of the belt is not possible or only after cutting the tape. In addition, several bands may be provided. In one embodiment, the bands comprise the stack in the longitudinal and transverse directions to secure the stack in all directions against pulling out of individual panels. The tape consists for example of paper, polyethylene, polypropylene or polyethylene terephthalate. The band can be printed in one embodiment to additionally act as an advertising medium. Its comparatively firm fixation on the stack ensures that the information provided on the tape is not lost or the advertising effect is not lost.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung verläuft das Band quer zur Längsrichtung der Paneele. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass dadurch ein Verschieben der Paneele quer zum Bandverlauf also in Längsrichtung der Paneele in ausreichendem Maße verhindert wird und zusätzliche Bänder in Längsrichtung vorteilhaft entfallen können. Beispielsweise ist das Band elastisch, besteht zum Beispiel aus Dehnfolie und ist so ausgelegt, dass es die einzelnen Paneele klemmend hält. In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung liegt das Band so eng am Stapel an, dass es bei Herausziehen eines Paneels, insbesondere der äußeren Paneele, in Längsrichtung des Stapels verkantet und so klemmend ein weiteres Herausziehen hindert. Durch die Anordnung des Bandes quer zur Längsrichtung des Stapels, wird darüber hinaus die Stapelbarkeit mehrerer Stapel aufeinander nicht nachteilig beeinflusst. Beispielsweise weist ein im Vergleich zum Stapel schmales, in Längsrichtung verlaufendes einzelnes Band den Nachteil auf, dass aufgrund der Stärke des Bandes die Stapel nicht flächig aufeinander aufliegen und damit mehrere Stapel instabil d.h. nicht flächig aufeinander aufliegen, was letztlich die maximale Stapelhöhe negativ beeinflusst.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the tape runs transversely to the longitudinal direction of the panels. It has been found that thereby a displacement of the panels is prevented transversely to the strip so in the longitudinal direction of the panels to a sufficient extent and additional bands in the longitudinal direction can advantageously be eliminated. For example, the band is elastic, for example, consists of stretch film and is designed so that it holds the individual panels by clamping. In a further embodiment, the tape is so close to the stack that it canted when pulling out a panel, in particular the outer panels, in the longitudinal direction of the stack and thus prevents clamping further withdrawal. Due to the arrangement of the tape transversely to the longitudinal direction of the stack, moreover, the stackability of multiple stacks on one another is not adversely affected. For example, has a narrow compared to the stack, longitudinally extending single band the disadvantage that due to the strength of the tape, the stack does not lie flat against each other and thus several stacks unstable, ie not flat lie on each other, which ultimately adversely affects the maximum stack height.

Letzteres ist insbesondere in Baumärkten von besonderem Nachteil, da das Publikum einerseits nicht gefährdet werden darf, andererseits Stellfläche kostbar ist. Darüber hinaus ist durch diese Anordnung das Band vergleichsweise kurz, was im Hinblick auf die oben genannte Verpackungsverordnung und das darin enthaltene allgemeine Gebot, die Verpackungsmittelmengen zu reduzieren, von Vorteil ist.The latter is particularly disadvantageous in hardware stores, since the audience is not allowed to be endangered on the one hand, on the other hand, space is precious. Moreover, with this arrangement, the band is comparatively short, which is advantageous in view of the above-mentioned packaging regulation and the general requirement contained therein to reduce the packaging quantities.

Bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist das Band beabstandet zur einer Seite des Paneels angeordnet. Dadurch wird verhindert, dass das Band vom Stapel abrutschen kann, insbesondere wenn beim Transport die Paneele gegeneinander verschoben werden. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass ein Abstand von mehr als 5cm zwischen Band und Seite des Paneels bzw. des Stapels bei den üblichen mechanischen Belastungen, dem der Stapel beispielsweise beim Transport ausgesetzt ist, reicht, ein Abrutschen des Bandes vom Stapel in ausreichendem Maße sicherzustellen. Durch Versuche wurde herausgefunden, dass dadurch sichergestellt wird, dass beim Herausziehen eines Paneels sich die klemmende Wirkung des Bandes entfalten kann. Wird beispielsweise ein Paneel längs des Stapels in Richtung der anderen Stirnseite des Stapels herausgezogen, reichen die in umgekehrte Richtung gesehen hinter dem Band verbleibenden Paneelabschnitte aus, um ein Verkanten bzw. Klemmen des Bandes sicherzustellen.In a further advantageous embodiment, the band is arranged at a distance from one side of the panel. This prevents the tape from slipping off the stack, especially if the panels are moved against each other during transport. It has been found that a distance of more than 5 cm between band and side of the panel or the stack in the usual mechanical stresses to which the stack is exposed, for example, during transport, sufficient to ensure slipping of the tape from the stack sufficiently. Through experiments it has been found that this ensures that when pulling out a panel, the clamping effect of the tape can unfold. For example, when a panel is pulled out along the stack toward the other end face of the stack, the panel portions remaining behind the band in the reverse direction are sufficient to ensure that the band is jammed.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Stapels sieht vor, dass das Band aus Polyvinylchlorid besteht. Dadurch kann das Band vergleichsweise preiswert hergestellt werden.A further advantageous embodiment of the stack according to the invention provides that the band consists of polyvinyl chloride. As a result, the band can be produced comparatively inexpensively.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung besteht das Band vorteilhaft aus Schrumpffolie. Dabei handelt es sich um kalt gereckte, thermoplastische Kunststoffe, die sich bei Wärmebehandlung wieder auf ihren Urzustand zusammenziehen. Durch dieses Schrumpfen wird erreicht, dass das Band nach Abkühlung fest auf dem Stapel aufsitzt, um die Paneele klemmend zu halten.In a further embodiment, the band is advantageously made of shrink film. These are cold-stretched, thermoplastic materials that undergo heat treatment to contract back to their original state. This shrinkage ensures that the tape sits firmly on the stack after cooling to hold the panels clamped.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform weist das Band eine Breite von wenigstens 2 cm auf. Versuche haben gezeigt, dass dadurch ein klemmendes Halten der Bänder sicher gestellt ist, andererseits die Menge der Verpackungsmittel im Sinne der Verpackungsverordnung nicht unnötig erhöht wird.According to another embodiment, the band has a width of at least 2 cm. Experiments have shown that thereby a clamping holding the tapes is ensured, on the other hand, the amount of packaging material within the meaning of the Packaging Ordinance is not unnecessarily increased.

Eine weitere Ausführungsform sieht vor, dass das Band im Wesentlichen durchsichtig ist. Beispielsweise weist das Band durchsichtige Abschnitte auf oder ist ganz durchsichtig. Dadurch kann beispielsweise die Oberfläche des Paneels trotz des Bandes begutachtet werden oder zwischen Band und Paneelen angeordnete Produktbeschreibungen oder Verlegeanleitungen studiert werden.Another embodiment provides that the band is substantially transparent. For example, the band has transparent portions or is completely transparent. As a result, for example, the surface of the panel can be inspected despite the band or product descriptions or installation instructions arranged between the band and the panels can be studied.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung umfassen die Mittel gegen Entfernen der Paneele wenigstens ein an einer Seite des Stapels angebrachtes Halteelement. Durch das Haltelement wird ein Verschieben der Paneele gegeneinander vermieden. Das Halteelement kann beispielsweise an der Verpackung befestigt sein, beispielsweise in eine Verpackungsfolie mit eingeschweißt sein. Das Halteelement kann alleine und in Kombination mit den zuvor beschriebenen Bändern vorgesehen sein.According to a further embodiment, the means for removing the panels comprise at least one retaining element attached to one side of the stack. By the holding element, a displacement of the panels is avoided against each other. The holding element may be attached to the packaging, for example, be welded into a packaging film, for example. The retaining element may be provided alone and in combination with the bands described above.

In einer Ausgestaltung ist das Halteelement an den jeweiligen Schmalseiten des Stapels angebracht und parallel zu den Schmalseiten verlaufen zwei den Stapel umfassende Bänder. Durch eine solche Auslegung der Mittel gegen Entfernen kann die Materialmenge, die zur Sicherung der Paneele benötigt wird vorteilhaft gering gehalten werden.In one embodiment, the holding element is attached to the respective narrow sides of the stack and parallel to the narrow sides extend two bands comprising the stack. By such a design of the means against removal, the amount of material needed to secure the panels can be advantageously kept low.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung besteht das Halteelement aus Pappe, insbesondere Wellpappe. Beispielsweise ist das Halteelement in einer die Stirnseite des Stapels umschließenden Abdeckung aus Pappe ausgebildet. Dabei ist die Pappenstärke zumindest an der Seite des Halteelements, die an der Stirnseite des Stapels anliegt, so gewählt, dass ein Aufreißen einerseits durch die im Stapel befindlichen scharfkantigen Paneele und andererseits ein Aufreißen von außen, sei es durch Manipulation an der Verpackung oder durch Stöße weitgehend verhindert wird. Wellpappe wird verwendet, um bei vergleichsweise geringem Gewicht, eine ausreichende Festigkeit des Halteelements zu erhalten. Das Halteelement ist beispielsweise durch eine Folieneinschweißung des Stapels samt Halteelement an dem Stapel fixiert.According to a further embodiment, the holding element made of cardboard, in particular corrugated board. For example, the holding element is formed in a cover of the front of the stack enclosing cardboard. The board thickness is at least on the side of the support member which rests against the end face of the stack, chosen so that tearing on the one hand by the sharp-edged panels in the stack and on the other hand tearing from the outside, either by manipulation of the package or by shocks is largely prevented. Corrugated board is used in order to obtain a sufficient strength of the holding element with comparatively low weight. The holding element is fixed to the stack, for example, by a foil welding of the stack together with the holding element.

Das Halteelement ist einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung wannenförmig ausgestaltet. Dadurch wird eine besonders gute Fixierung der Paneele erreicht, insbesondere wird eine sichere Lagerung der Paneele erreicht, wenn sonstige Verpackung oder die zuvor genannten Bänder entfernt sind.The holding element is configured trough-shaped in a further advantageous embodiment. As a result, a particularly good fixation of the panels is achieved, in particular a secure storage of the panels is achieved if other packaging or the aforementioned bands are removed.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung weist das Halteelement ein Verstärkungselement auf. Dieses ist beispielsweise an besonders belasteten Stellen des Haltelements vorgesehen. Beispielsweise ist es ein Halteelement aus Pappe, in dem Streifen aus Kunststoff vorhanden sind, vorgesehen. Dadurch kann die Stabilität des Halteelements besonders gesteigert werden. Die Stabilität dient einerseits dazu, die Widerstandsfähigkeit des Halteelements gegenüber mechanischen Belastungen hervorgerufen durch die anliegenden Paneele zu erhöhen. Andererseits wird so die Festigkeit des Halteelements gegenüber Versuchen, dieses zu zerreißen oder vom Stapel zu entfernen, erhöht. Es ist so nicht notwendig, auf stabilere aber gleichzeitig vergleichsweise teure Halteelemente bzw. Verpackungen zu wechseln.According to a further embodiment, the holding element has a reinforcing element. This is provided for example at particularly loaded points of the holding element. For example, it is a holding element made of cardboard, in which strips of plastic are provided provided. As a result, the stability of the holding element can be increased especially. On the one hand, the stability serves to increase the resistance of the holding element to mechanical stresses caused by the adjoining panels. On the other hand, the strength of the retaining element is increased compared to attempts to rip it or to remove it from the stack. It is not necessary to be more stable but at the same time comparatively expensive retaining elements or packaging to change.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung verläuft das Verstärkungselement wenigstens längs einer der Schmalseiten des Stapels. Es hat sich herausgestellt, dass die Belastung gerade an den Schmalseiten besonders hoch ist und dass die Neigung besteht, gerade an den Schmalseiten Paneelverpackungen aufzureißen.In an advantageous embodiment, the reinforcing element runs along at least one of the narrow sides of the stack. It has been found that the load is especially high on the narrow sides and that there is a tendency to tear straight on the narrow sides panel packaging.

Bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist das Verstärkungselement in der Nähe wenigstens einer Ecke des Stapels angeordnet. Die Ecken des Stapels, d.h. der Paneele weisen scharfe Kanten auf. Dadurch ist die mechanische Belastung auf das Haltelement insbesondere im Bereich der Ecken hoch. Durch die Verstärkung wird deren Stabilität vorteilhaft erhöht.In a further advantageous embodiment, the reinforcing element is arranged in the vicinity of at least one corner of the stack. The corners of the stack, i. the panels have sharp edges. As a result, the mechanical load on the holding element is high, in particular in the region of the corners. The reinforcement advantageously increases their stability.

Das Verstärkungselement ist in einer Ausgestaltung vorteilhaft bandförmig oder streifförmig. Dadurch kann vorteilhaft der mit der Verstärkung verbundene materielle Aufwand im Volumen und somit die Verpackungsmittelmengen vorteilhaft reduziert werden.In one embodiment, the reinforcing element is advantageously strip-shaped or strip-shaped. As a result, it is advantageously possible to advantageously reduce the volume of material involved in the reinforcement and thus the quantities of packaging material.

Bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist das Verstärkungselement vorteilhaft wenigstens teilweise zwischen der Verpackung und dem Stapel angeordnet. So kann die außen liegende Verpackung zumindest in dem Bereich vor Beschädigung geschützt werden, um unter anderem die Verletzungsgefahr durch außen liegende beschädigte Verpackungsteile zu reduzieren.In a further advantageous embodiment, the reinforcing element is advantageously arranged at least partially between the packaging and the stack. Thus, the outer packaging can be protected at least in the area from damage, among other things to reduce the risk of injury from outside damaged packaging parts.

Bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist das Verstärkungselement vorteilhaft wenigstens mit Teilen des Halteelements verklebt. Dadurch wird sichergestellt, dass das Verstärkungselement beim Transport oder sonstigen mechanischen Beanspruchungen des Stapels verrutscht. In einer Ausgestaltung wird das Band in ein Wellpappenstück eingeklebt, wodurch sich die Herstellung des erfindungsgemäßen Halteelements vorteilhaft vereinfacht.In a further advantageous embodiment, the reinforcing element is advantageously glued at least with parts of the retaining element. This ensures that the reinforcing element slips during transport or other mechanical stresses of the stack. In one embodiment, the tape is glued into a corrugated piece, whereby the Production of the holding element according to the invention advantageously simplified.

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung sieht vor, dass das Band und / oder das Halteelement als integraler Bestandteil der Verpackungsmittels ausgebildet sind. Beispielsweise ist das die Stirnseite umschließende Halteelement aus Pappe einstückig mit einer den Stapel umschließenden und entsprechend gefalteten Pappverpackung ausgestaltet. Das Band ist beispielsweise als ein verdickter Abschnitt in einer den Stapel umschließenden Folie ausgebildet.A further embodiment provides that the band and / or the holding element are formed as an integral part of the packaging means. For example, the end face surrounding holding element made of cardboard is integrally formed with a stack surrounding and correspondingly folded cardboard packaging. The tape is formed, for example, as a thickened portion in a sheet enclosing the stack.

In einer Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Halteelements bestehen die Verstärkungselemente aus Klebeband mit der Produktbezeichnung Sesame® Tape CR-2348 oder RPT® CR-2704B der Firma Adalis, Vancouver, Washington. Das Sesame® Tape CR-2348 weist beispielsweise synthetische Fasern als Trägermaterial und eine Bruchfestigkeit von 68kg und einen Dehnungswert von 1 3-23% auf. Das RPT® CR-2704B weist ein synthetisches Folienmaterial als Träger auf. Der Kleber ist wird beispielsweise mittels Wärme aktiviert.In one embodiment of the retaining element of the invention, the reinforcing elements consist of adhesive tape bearing the product Sesame ® Tape CR-2348 or RPT ® CR-2704B Company Adalis, Vancouver, Washington. The Sesame ® Tape CR-2348 has, for example, synthetic fibers as carrier material and a breaking strength of 68 kg and an elongation value of 1 3-23%. The RPT ® CR-2704B has a synthetic material foil as a carrier. The adhesive is activated, for example by means of heat.
