Description

DECKBOGEN FÜR DRUCKPRODUKT UND VERFAHREN ZUR VERPACKUNG VON ZEITUNGEN ODER ZEITSCHRIFTENCOVER FOR PRINTED PRODUCT AND METHOD FOR PACKAGING NEWSPAPERS OR MAGAZINES
MITTELS DECKBOGENBY MEANS OF DECK BOW
Die Erfindung liegt auf dem Gebiete der Weiterverarbeitung von Druckprodukten und betrifft einen Deckbogen nach dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs. Die Hauptfunktion des Deckbogens besteht darin, das Druckprodukt, das insbesondere eine Zeitung oder Zeitschrift mit diversen Beilagen (z.B. weitere Zeitungen oder Zeitschriften, Prospekte, Broschüren, CDs oder andere Datenträger, Mustergegenstände) ist, zu einer für die Verteilung geeigneten, das heisst einfach handhabbaren Einheit zusammenzufassen. Die Erfindung betrifft zudem ein Verfahren zum Verpacken von Zeitungen oder Zeitschriften mittels Deckbogen.The invention is in the field of further processing of printed products and relates to a cover sheet according to the preamble of the independent claim. The main function of the cover sheet is to make the printed product, which in particular is a newspaper or magazine with various inserts (eg other newspapers or magazines, brochures, brochures, CDs or other data carriers, sample items), suitable for distribution, that is easy to handle Unit to summarize. The invention also relates to a method for packaging newspapers or magazines by means of cover sheets.
Es ist bekannt, insbesondere Zeitschriften gegebenenfalls mit Beilagen für die Ver- teilung einzeln in eine mindestens teilweise transparente Kunststoff folie einzuschlagen und diese um die Zeitschrift zu verschweissen. Dadurch wird eine für die Verteilung bereite Zeitschrift erstellt, die erstens gegen äussere Einflüsse, insbesondere gegen Nässe und Feuchtigkeit geschützt ist, die zweitens den Neuzustand der Zeitschrift garantiert, die drittens durch Ihre Transparenz die Zeitschrift samt verkaufs- fördernden Aufdrucken auf ihrer Aussenseite sichtbar erhält und die viertens die Zeitschrift mit Beilagen, die in der Zeitschrift eingesteckt oder dieser lose zugegeben sind, zu einer mehr oder weniger stabilen und einfach handhabbaren Einheit zusammenfassen. Derart verpackte Druckprodukte haben sich zuerst insbesondere da, wo sie per Post verteilt werden, durchgesetzt, sind aber auch immer mehr da, wo der Leser sie vom Verteiler (z.B. Kiosk) kauft, anzutreffen. Es wird auch bereits vorgeschlagen, Tageszeitungen in der genannten Weise verpackt anzubieten.It is known, in particular magazines with supplements for the distribution individually beat in an at least partially transparent plastic film and to weld this around the magazine. This creates a magazine ready for distribution, which is firstly protected against external influences, in particular moisture and moisture, which, secondly, guarantees the new condition of the magazine, which thirdly, through its transparency, keeps the magazine and its sales-promoting imprints visible on its outside Fourth, the magazine, with inserts that are inserted in the magazine or added to it loosely, to a more or less stable and easy to handle unit. Such packaged printed products have first of all where they are distributed by mail, enforced, but are also more and more where the reader buys them from the distributor (eg kiosk). It is also already proposed to offer daily newspapers packed in the said manner.
Die genannten, transparenten Kunststoffverpackungen haben aber andererseits den Nachteil, dass sie, sobald das Druckprodukt den Leser erreicht hat, als Abfall beseitigt werden müssen und dass das Verpacken durch Einhüllen in Kunststofffolie und Verschweissung bezüglich Zeit und Platz sehr aufwändig ist. Da bekannte Vorrichtungen zur Erstellung der Verpackungen üblicherweise eine sehr beschränkte Kapazität aufweisen, muss für die on-line Verarbeitung beispielsweise der von einer Ro- tationsdruckmaschine ausgestossenen Produkte eine Mehrzahl von parallel arbeitenden Verpackungsvorrichtungen vorgesehen werden. Diese stellen zusammen mit den für ihre Speisung notwendigen Mitteln zur Aufteilung des von der Rotation ausgelegten Druckproduktestromes und den ebenfalls notwendigen Mitteln zur Wiederzusammenfassung der Teilströme eine hohe Investition dar und benötigen sehr viel Platz.On the other hand, however, the above-mentioned transparent plastic packaging has the disadvantage that, as soon as the printed product has reached the reader, it must be disposed of as waste and the packaging by wrapping in plastic film and welding is very time-consuming and space-consuming. Since known devices for producing the packages usually have a very limited capacity, for the on-line processing of, for example, the products ejected from a rotary printing machine, a plurality of parallel-operating packaging devices must be provided. These, together with the means necessary for their feeding to divide the rotating printed product stream and the means also necessary for the recompression of the partial flows are a high investment and require a lot of space.
In den Publikationen US-5632476 (F372), EP-0019606 oder US-4160687 wird vorgeschlagen, Zeitschriften dadurch für die Verteilung besser handhabbar zu machen, dass mindestens ein adhesiver Streifen auf der Frontseite aufgeklebt, über eine offene Zeitschriftenkante gespannt und auf der Rückseite wieder aufgeklebt wird. Diese ad- hesiven Streifen halten zwar die Zeitschrift und gegebenenfalls darin eingesteckte Beilagen als Einheit zusammen, sind aber, wenn sie ohne Deckbogen verwendet werden, in keiner Weise fähig, diese zu schützen.In publications US Pat. No. 5,632,476 (F372), EP-0019606 or US Pat. No. 4,160,687, it is proposed to make magazines easier to handle for distribution, in that at least one adhesive strip is glued to the front side, stretched over an open magazine edge and again on the back side is glued on. These adhesive strips, while uniting the magazine and any inserts inserted therein, are in no way capable of protecting them when used without coverslips.
In der Publikation EP-0676354 (F373) wird auch vorgeschlagen, Druckprodukte wie beispielsweise Zeitschriften mit einem gefalzten Deckbogen zu versehen und diesen in geeigneter Weise zu verschliessen, so dass ebenfalls eine für die Verteilung geeig- nete Einheit entsteht und das Druckprodukt zudem mindestens in beschränktem Masse geschützt ist. Der Deckbogen weist beispielsweise einen Vorfalz auf, der für den Verschluss über die Kante der Zeitschrift geschlagen und auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite des Deckbogens beispielsweise durch Ankleben befestigt wird. Der Vorteil von Verpackungsverfahren mit Hilfe von Deckbogen gegenüber dem eingangs erwähnten Verpackungsverfahren mit Hilfe von Kunststofffolie besteht darin, dass für die Verpackung dieselben Vorrichtungen verwendet werden können wie für das Zusammenstellen des zu verpackenden Druckproduktes (z.B. Vorrichtungen zum Einstecken oder zum Sammeln von Druckprodukteteilen oder von Druckprodukt und Beilagen), ohne dass diese Vorrichtungen für die Zusatzfunktion wesentlich erweitert oder angepasst werden müssten. Bekannte Vorrichtungen für die genannten Arbeitsschritte weisen auch Kapazitäten auf, die ausreichen, um einen von einer Rotation ausgelegten Druckproduktestrom ohne Aufteilung on-line weiter bearbeiten zu können. Wie die Kunststofffolie ist aber auch der Deckbogen ein Gegenstand, der zu- sätzlich zum Druckprodukt geliefert werden muss und der unmittelbar nach der Auslieferung vom Empfänger als Abfall in geeigneter Weise beseitigt werden muss. Ferner weist der Deckbogen gegenüber der Kunststofffolie den Nachteil auf, dass er üblicherweise nicht transparent ist und deshalb zur Identifizierung des Druckproduktes gegebenenfalls entsprechend bedruckt werden müsste.In the publication EP-0676354 (F373) it is also proposed to provide printed products such as magazines with a folded cover sheet and to close it in a suitable manner, so that a suitable for the distribution also suitable. nete unit arises and the printed product is also protected at least to a limited extent. The cover sheet has, for example, a prefold, which is struck for the closure over the edge of the magazine and fixed on the opposite side of the cover sheet, for example by gluing. The advantage of packaging methods with the aid of cover sheets compared to the above-mentioned plastic film packaging method is that the same devices can be used for packaging as for assembling the printed product to be packaged (eg devices for inserting or collecting printed product parts or printed product and supplements), without these devices for the additional function would have to be significantly extended or adapted. Known devices for the mentioned steps also have capacities which are sufficient to be able to further process a stream of printed products designed for rotation without splitting on-line. Like the plastic film, however, the cover sheet is also an article which must be supplied in addition to the printed product and which must be disposed of by the recipient as waste in a suitable manner immediately after delivery. Furthermore, the cover sheet over the plastic film has the disadvantage that it is usually not transparent and therefore, if necessary, would have to be printed accordingly to identify the printed product.
Die Erfindung stellt sich nun die Aufgabe, den oben kurz beschriebenen Deckbogen für Druckprodukte, insbesondere für Zeitungen und Zeitschriften mit Beilagen weiter zu entwickeln. Der erfindungsgemässe Deckbogen soll die Vorteile der oben genannten Verpackung in transparente Kunststofffolie und der Verpackung in einen Deckbogen weitestgehend vereinen, deren Nachteile aber möglichst ausschalten. Das heisst mit anderen Worten, der erfindungsgemässe Deckbogen soll sich dafür eignen, das Druckprodukt zu einer für die Verteilung geeigneten, einfach handhabbaren Einheit zusammenzufassen und mindestens in beschränktem Masse zu schützen, wobei es einfach möglich sein soll, das Druckprodukt ohne entsprechende Bedruckung des Deckbogens zu identifizieren, wobei es der erfindungsgemässe Deckbogen trotzdem - A -The invention now has the task of further developing the cover sheet briefly described above for printed products, in particular for newspapers and magazines with inserts. The inventive cover sheet is intended to combine the advantages of the above-mentioned packaging in transparent plastic film and the packaging in a cover sheet as far as possible, but eliminate the disadvantages as possible. In other words, the cover sheet according to the invention should be suitable for combining the printed product into an easy-to-handle unit suitable for the distribution and for protecting it at least to a limited extent, whereby it should simply be possible to print the product without corresponding printing of the cover sheet identify, wherein it is the inventive cover sheet anyway - A -
möglich machen soll, die Druckprodukte mit bekannten Vorrichtungen und hohen Kapazitäten zu verpacken, und wobei der erfindungsgemässe Deckbogen insbesondere das Abfallproblem der Verpackung aus Kunststofffolie oder der bekannten Deckbogen relevant reduzieren soll. Ferner ist es die Aufgabe der Erfindung ein ent- sprechendes Verpackungsverfahren aufzuzeigen.make possible to package the printed products with known devices and high capacities, and wherein the inventive cover sheet in particular to reduce the waste problem of the packaging of plastic film or the known cover sheet relevant. Furthermore, it is the object of the invention to show a corresponding packaging method.
Diese Aufgaben werden gelöst durch den Deckbogen, bzw. durch die Einheit aus Deckbogen und Druckprodukt, insbesondere die Einheit aus Deckbogen, Zeitung oder Zeitschrift und Beilagen, und durch das Verfahren zur Verpackung von Zeitungen und Zeitschriften wie sie in den Patentansprüchen definiert sind.These objects are achieved by the cover sheet, or by the unit of cover sheet and printed product, in particular the unit of cover sheet, newspaper or magazine and supplements, and by the process for packaging newspapers and magazines as defined in the claims.
Der erfindungsgemässe Deckbogen hat, wie bekannte solche Deckbogen, ein rechteckiges oder quadratisches Format, das im wesentlichen doppelt so gross ist wie das zu verpackende Druckprodukt oder er ist leicht grösser. Der erfindungsgemässe Deckbogen besteht aus Papier oder einem Kunststoffmaterial mit einer Steifigkeit etwa wie Papier und er ist vorteilhafterweise, ebenfalls wie bekannte Deckbogen, in eine Frontseite und eine Rückseite gefaltet oder er weist eine etwa mittige Rückenlinie mit einer Struktur auf, die es erlaubt, den Bogen einfach entlang dieser Rückenlinie zu biegen oder zu falten. Zusätzlich weist der erfindungsgemässe Deckbogen mindestens einen ganz oder teilweise ausgestanzten Bereich auf, wobei der ausgestanzte Bereich durch die Ausstanzung und gegebenenfalls durch eine entsprechende Bedruckung für eine von der Deck- bzw. Verpackungsfunktion verschiedene Funktion ausgerüstet ist.The inventive cover sheet has, as known such cover sheet, a rectangular or square format, which is substantially twice as large as the printed product to be packaged or it is slightly larger. The inventive cover sheet is made of paper or a plastic material having a rigidity such as paper and it is advantageously, also known cover sheet, folded into a front and a back or he has an approximately central back line with a structure that allows the bow simply bend or fold along this back line. In addition, the inventive cover sheet has at least one completely or partially punched-out area, wherein the punched-out area is equipped by the punching and optionally by a corresponding printing for a different function of the cover or packaging function.
Ein ganz ausgestanzter Bereich des erfindungsgemässen Deckbogens ist insbesondere ein Fenster, durch das hindurch relevante Bereiche des verpackten Druckproduktes, insbesondere Titel und/oder Schlagzeile der verpackten Zeitung oder Zeitschrift sichtbar sind. Ein teilweise ausgestanzter, beispielsweise durch eine Perforationslinie eingegrenzter und dadurch einfach und ohne Hilfsmittel vom Deckbogen trennbarer Bereich des erfindungsgemässen Deckbogens wird beispielsweise durch entsprechende Bedruckung oder weitere Ausrüstung für eine weitere Funktion ausgerüstet. Ein solcher abtrennbarer Bereich ist beispielsweise eine Antwortkarte, ein Bon, ein Sammelobjekt, ein Spielzeug (z.B. Puzzle oder Basteibogen), ein Umschlag für eine CD oder einen anderen flachen Gegenstand oder ein Teil der genannten Gegenstände. Die teilweise Ausstanzung eines Bereiches kann sich auch auf eine Oberflächenschicht eines mehrschichtigen Deckbogens beziehen, wobei die Oberflächenschicht durch einen schälbaren Kleber an einer inneren Schicht haftet und der ausgestanzte Bereich abgeschält und anderswo aufgeklebt werden kann. Wie noch zu zeigen sein wird, kann ein teilweise ausgestanzter Bereich auch als Mittel zum Verschliessen des Deckbogens um die darin verpackten Druckprodukte ausgerüstet sein.A completely stamped region of the cover sheet according to the invention is, in particular, a window through which relevant regions of the packaged printed product, in particular the title and / or headline of the packaged newspaper or magazine, are visible. A partially punched, for example by a perforation line limited and thus easily separable without the aid of the cover sheet area of the inventive cover sheet is equipped for example by appropriate printing or other equipment for another function. Such a detachable area is, for example, a reply card, a ticket, a collection object, a toy (eg a puzzle or a bow tie), an envelope for a CD or other flat object or a part of said objects. The partial punching of a region may also refer to a surface layer of a multilayer cover sheet, the surface layer being adhered to an inner layer by a peelable adhesive and the punched-out region being peeled off and adhered elsewhere. As will be shown, a partially punched-out area can also be equipped as a means for closing the cover sheet around the printed products packed therein.
Für die Verpackung werden die erfindungsgemässen Deckbogen um die zu verpak- kenden Druckprodukte gelegt, wofür Deckbogen und Druckprodukte beispielsweise einem Einstecksystem zugeführt werden. Dabei werden die Deckbogen zuerst in die Einsteckabteile eingeführt und geöffnet und dann die Druckprodukte in die Deckbogen eingesteckt. Zum Verschliessen der Deckbogen werden beispielsweise in an sich bekannter Weise Klebstreifen verwendet oder es werden durch Aufsprayen eines Kunststoffs Klebstreifen-ähnliche Bereiche erzeugt. Zum Verschliessen können auch über die zu verpackenden Druckprodukte vorstehender Bereich des Deckbogens mit anderen Bereichen verklebt oder verheftet werden. Gegebenenfalls werden die für das Verschliessen des Deckbogens ausgerüsteten Bereiche des Deckbogens vor dem Verschliessschritt in geeigneter Weise durch örtliche Verstärkung, durch Anbringen von Klebstoff, durch teilweises Abtrennen vom Deckbogen, durch Falten und/oder durch Entfalten vorbereitet. Solche Vorbereitungsschritte können bei der Herstellung der Deckbogen und/oder unmittelbar vor oder während dem Verpacken durchgeführt werden. Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren wird beispielsweise mit Hilfe eines Einstecksystems (z.B. Einstecktrommel) durchgeführt, wobei das Einstecksystem vorteilhafterweise auch für die Schritte des Verschliessens der Deckbogen ausgerüstet ist. Es ist auch möglich, die Zeitung oder Zeitschrift in einem Zusatzaggregat zusammenzubringen und zusammen dem Einstecksystem zuzuführen, wobei im Einstecksystem die Beilagen zugefügt werden. Die Verpackung und insbesondere der Schritt des Verschliessens kann auch durchgeführt werden, während die Produkte beispielsweise durch einen oder mehrere Greiferförderer gefördert werden.For the packaging, the cover sheets according to the invention are laid around the printed products to be packaged, for which cover sheets and printed products are supplied, for example, to a plug-in system. The cover sheets are first inserted into the Einsteckabteile and opened and then plugged the printed products in the cover sheet. To close the cover sheet adhesive strips are used for example in a conventional manner or it will be generated by spraying a plastic adhesive-like areas. For closing, the region of the cover sheet projecting above the printed products to be packaged may also be glued or stitched to other regions. Optionally, the portions of the cover sheet finished to close the cover sheet are appropriately prepared prior to the sealing step by local reinforcement, by application of adhesive, by partial separation from the cover sheet, by folding and / or by unfolding. Such preparatory steps may be performed during the manufacture of the coversheets and / or immediately before or during packaging. The method according to the invention is carried out, for example, with the aid of a plug-in system (for example inserting drum), wherein the plug-in system is advantageously also equipped for the steps of closing the cover sheet. It is also possible to bring together the newspaper or magazine in an additional aggregate and feed it together to the insertion system, wherein the inserts are added in Einstecksystem. The packaging, and in particular the sealing step, can also be carried out while the products are conveyed, for example, by one or more gripper conveyors.

Das darin verpackte Druckprodukt 2 ist im dargestellten Falle eine Zeitschrift oder eine Zeitung im Tabloidformat, kann aber genau so gut irgend ein anderes Druckprodukt wie beispielsweise eine gebundene Broschüre oder eine zweimal gefaltete Zeitung sein. Zusammen mit dem genannten Druckprodukt 2 können im Deckbogen 1 beliebige Beilagen oder andere Druckprodukte untergebracht sein, wobei diese in das erste Druckprodukt eingesteckt und/oder mit diesem zusammen einen Stapel bilden. Der Deckbogen 1 weist eine Frontseite 1.1 und eine Rückseite 1.2 auf, die über eine FaIt- oder Rückenlinie 3 miteinander verbunden sind. Der Deckbogen ist in an sich bekannter Art und Weise zu einer Verpackung verschlossen durch über die offenen Seiten geklebte, adhesive Streifen 4. Zusätzlich kann auf dem Deckbogen 1 auch ein den Inhalt identifizierender, elektronischer Speicher 5 angeordnet sein.FIGS. 1 to 3 show a first, exemplary embodiment of the cover sheet 1 according to the invention. The printed product 2 packaged therein is a magazine or a newspaper in tabloid format but may as well be any other printed product such as a bound booklet or a booklet be twice folded newspaper. Together with said printed product 2 1 any supplements or other printed products can be accommodated in the cover sheet, which inserted into the first printed product and / or together with this form a stack. The cover sheet 1 has a front 1.1 and a back 1.2, which are connected to each other via a FaIt- or back line 3. The cover sheet is sealed in a manner known per se to a packaging by glued over the open sides, adhesive strips 4. In addition, on the cover sheet 1, a contents identifying, electronic memory 5 may be arranged.
Die Frontseite 1.1 des Deckbogens 1 weist als vollständig ausgestanzten Bereich ein Fenster 6 auf, das derart positioniert ist, dass dadurch beispielsweise der Titel und gegebenenfalls die Schlagzeile des Druckproduktes 2 sichtbar ist. Das Fenster 6 ist gegebenenfalls mit einer transparenten Materialschicht abgedeckt, wobei die transparente Materialschicht auf der Innen- oder Aussenseite des Deckbogens angebracht sein kann. Zusätzlich zum Fenster 6 weist der Deckbogen gemäss Figuren 1 bis 3 nur teilweise ausgestanzte, beispielsweise durch eine Perforationslinie eingegrenzte und dadurch einfach vom Deckbogen abtrennbare Bereiche 7 auf, die im dargestellten Falle durch entsprechende gegebenenfalls doppelseitige Bedruckung als Bon 8 (Frontseite des Deckbogens) oder Bogen von Sammelkarten 9 (Rückseite des Deckbogens) ausgestaltet sind. In derselben Weise können auf der Front- oder Rückseite des Deckbogens auch beispielsweise Antwortkarten oder Faltbogen zum Erstellen von dreidimensionalen Konstrukten (Basteibogen) oder flache als Spielobjekte ausgebildete und durch Perforation aus dem Deckbogen trennbare Bereiche 7 vorgesehen werden.The front side 1.1 of the cover sheet 1 has, as a completely punched-out area, a window 6 which is positioned in such a way that, for example, the title and optionally the headline of the printed product 2 are thereby visible. The window 6 is optionally covered with a transparent material layer, wherein the transparent material layer may be mounted on the inside or outside of the cover sheet. In addition to the window 6, the cover sheet according to Figures 1 to 3 only partially punched, for example, bounded by a perforation line and thus easily separable from the cover sheet areas 7, in the case shown by appropriate optionally double-sided printing as Bon 8 (front of the cover sheet) or bow of trading cards 9 (back of the cover sheet) are configured. In the same way, for example, reply cards or folded sheets for creating three-dimensional constructs (base arch) or flat areas designed as game objects and separable from the cover sheet by perforation can also be provided on the front or back of the cover sheet.
Ein weiterer, nur teilweise ausgestanzter Bereich 7 des Deckbogens gemäss Figuren 1 bis 3 ist durch eine auf der Innenseite des Deckbogens aufgebrachte Taschenschicht 10 als Tasche für eine CD 11 oder einen anderen flachen Gegenstand ausgerüstet. Die Tasche (teilweise ausgestanzter Bereich 7 und daran haftende, gegebenenfalls transparente Taschenschicht 10) kann auf einer Seite offen oder ganz geschlos- sen sein und ist als Ganzes einfach aus dem Deckbogen 1 trennbar. Selbstverständlich kann die Taschenschicht 10 auch auf der Aussenseite des Deckbogens 1 angebracht sein.Another, only partially punched out area 7 of the cover sheet according to Figures 1 to 3 is equipped by a force applied to the inside of the cover sheet pocket layer 10 as a pocket for a CD 11 or other flat object. The pocket (partially punched-out area 7 and optionally transparent pocket layer 10 adhering thereto) can be open or completely closed on one side and can be easily separated from the cover sheet 1 as a whole. Of course, the pocket layer 10 may also be mounted on the outside of the cover sheet 1.
Die in den Figuren 1 bis 3 dargestellten Klebstreifen 4, mit deren Hilfe der Deckbogen nach dem Einbringen des Druckproduktes geschlossen wird, werden vorteilhaf- terweise vor dem Zusammenbringen von Deckbogen und Druckprodukt am Deckbogen angebracht und werden nach dem Zusammenbringen um die Druckproduktekante gelegt und auf der Gegenseite angedrückt. Offensichtlich können anstelle von separat zuzuführenden Klebstreifen auch über das Druckprodukt bzw. über den Rand des Deckbogens vorstehende Deckbogenbereiche mit einem Klebstoff beschichtet und nach dem Zusammenbringen mit dem Druckprodukt um die Druckproduktekante gelegt und auf der Gegenseite angeklebt oder in einer anderen geeigneten Art und Weise befestigt werden. Solche vorstehenden Bereiche werden vorteilhafterweise vor dem Zusammenbringen von Deckbogen und Druckprodukt gebildet (z.B. durch Wegschneiden oder Ausstanzen von benachbarten Bereichen) und mit Klebstoff beschichtet.The adhesive strips 4 illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3, with the aid of which the cover sheet is closed after the introduction of the printed product, are advantageously applied to the cover sheet before the covering sheet and printed product are brought together and are placed around the printed product edge after being brought together Pressed against the other side. Obviously, instead of adhesive tape to be supplied separately, cover sheet areas protruding beyond the printed product or over the edge of the cover sheet may also be coated with an adhesive and placed around the printed product edge after being brought into contact with the printed product and adhered to the opposite side or fastened in another suitable manner , Such protruding areas are advantageously present formed the bringing together of cover sheet and printed product (eg by cutting away or punching out of adjacent areas) and coated with adhesive.
Figur 4 zeigt einen ähnlichen Deckbogen, wie der Deckbogen gemäss Figuren 1 bis 3, der wiederum auf seiner Frontseite 1.1 ein Fenster 6 aufweist. Weitere teilweise ausgestanzte Bereiche 7 sind an einem die Frontseite 1.1 überragenden Bereich 20 der Deckbogenrückseite 1.2 vorgesehen, wobei der überragende Bereich 20 des Deckbogens vorteilhafterweise in den Deckbogen eingefaltet ist und für die Abtrennung der teilweise ausgestanzten Bereiche 7 ausgeklappt wird. Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, einen derartig eingefalteten Bereich an der Innenseite des Deckbogens 1 zu befestigen und dadurch eine oder mehrere Taschen zu bilden, die dann entlang einer entsprechenden Perforationslinie als Ganzes vom Deckbogen 1 abtrennbar sind. Ein die Rückseite oder Frontseite des Deckbogens überragender Bereich 20, wie er in der Figur 4 dargestellt ist, kann auch mindestens teilweise als Ver- Schlussmittel dienen, indem er über die Druckproduktekante gelegt und an der gegenüberliegenden Seite des Deckbogens beispielsweise durch Verklebung befestigt wird. Von den in der Figur 4 dargestellten, abtrennbaren Bereichen 20 könnten also beispielsweise die äusseren beiden auf der Innenseite mit Klebstoff beschichtet sein und zum Verschliessen des Deckbogens 1 auf dessen Frontseite 1.1 befestigt werden.FIG. 4 shows a similar cover sheet as the cover sheet according to FIGS. 1 to 3, which in turn has a window 6 on its front side 1.1. Further partially punched-out areas 7 are provided on a front side 1.1 projecting portion 20 of the cover sheet back side 1.2, wherein the projecting portion 20 of the cover sheet is advantageously folded into the cover sheet and is unfolded for the separation of the partially punched out areas 7. Of course, it is also possible to attach such a folded region on the inside of the cover sheet 1 and thereby form one or more pockets, which are then separated along a corresponding perforation line as a whole from the cover sheet 1. A region 20 projecting the rear side or front side of the cover sheet, as shown in FIG. 4, can also serve at least partially as a closure means by being placed over the printed product edge and secured to the opposite side of the cover sheet, for example by gluing. Of the separable regions 20 shown in FIG. 4, for example, the outer two could be coated on the inside with adhesive and fastened on the front side 1.1 thereof for closing the cover sheet 1.
Wenn der in der Figur 4 dargestellte, die Rückseite 1.2 überragende Deckbogenbe- reich 20 erst nach dem Zusammenbringen von Deckbogen und Druckprodukt nach innen gefalzt wird, kann er vorher in an sich bekannter Weise im Sinne eines Vorfalzes zum Öffnen des Deckbogens verwendet werden.If the cover sheet area 20 projecting beyond the rear side 1.2 shown in FIG. 4 is folded inwards only after the cover sheet and printed product have been brought together, it can be used beforehand in a manner known per se in the sense of a prefold for opening the cover sheet.
Figuren 5 bis 7 zeigen eine weitere, beispielhafte Ausführungsform des erfindungs- gemässen Deckbogens 1. Figur 5 zeigt den leeren Deckbogen 1 von vorne, Figuren 6 und 7 zeigen den mit einem Druckprodukt 2 gefüllten und verschlossenen Deckbogen 1, wobei er in Figur 6 von vorne gesehen und in Figur 7 geschnitten (Schnittlinie VII-VII in Figur 6) dargestellt ist.FIGS. 5 to 7 show a further, exemplary embodiment of the cover sheet 1 according to the invention. FIG. 5 shows the empty cover sheet 1 from the front, FIGS and FIG. 7 show the cover sheet 1 filled and sealed with a printed product 2, being seen from the front in FIG. 6 and cut in FIG. 7 (section line VII-VII in FIG. 6).
Der Deckbogen weist zusätzlich zu einem Fenster 6, das beispielsweise auf den Titel des Druckproduktes 2 ausgerichtet ist, zwei aufeinander ausgerichtete, teilweise ausgestanzte Bereiche 7 auf, die für eine Verschliessfunktion ausgerüstet sind. Die teilweise ausgestanzten Bereiche 7, von denen in Figuren 5 und 6 nur derjenige in der Frontseite 1.1 des Deckbogens 1 sichtbar ist, sind durch eine Schnittlinie 21 und eine vorgefalzte Linie 22 begrenzt, wobei die vorgefalzte Linie 22 gegen den Rand des Deckbogens 1 gerichtet ist und für ein Falzen des Bereiches 7 nach der Aussenseite des Deckbogens ausgebildet ist. Zum Verschliessen werden die beiden teilweise ausgestanzten Bereiche 7 nach aussen gefaltet, über den Rand des Deckbogens gelegt und miteinander verbunden, beispielsweise durch Klebung, Prägung oder Heftung (Heftklammer 23), wie dies am besten aus der Figur 7 ersichtlich ist.The cover sheet has, in addition to a window 6, which is aligned for example on the title of the printed product 2, two mutually aligned, partially punched out areas 7, which are equipped for a closing function. The partially punched out areas 7, of which only the one in the front 1.1 of the cover sheet 1 is visible in Figures 5 and 6 are limited by a cutting line 21 and a pre-folded line 22, wherein the pre-folded line 22 is directed against the edge of the cover sheet 1 and is formed for a folding of the area 7 to the outside of the cover sheet. To close the two partially punched out areas 7 are folded outwards, placed over the edge of the cover sheet and connected to each other, for example by gluing, embossing or stapling (staple 23), as best seen in Figure 7.
Vorteilhafterweise werden die Deckbogen unmittelbar vor dem Zusammenbringen mit den Druckprodukten für den Verschliessschritt vorbereitet, indem die teilweise ausgestanzten Bereiche nach aussen bewegt und gefalzt werden. Gegebenenfalls können die vorgefalzten Linien 22 und insbesondere deren Endbereiche durch Aufbringen einer Verstärkungsschicht verstärkt werden.Advantageously, the cover sheets are prepared immediately prior to being brought into contact with the printed products for the closing step by moving the partially punched-out portions outwards and folding them. Optionally, the pre-folded lines 22 and in particular their end regions can be reinforced by applying a reinforcing layer.
Figuren 8 und 9 zeigen eine weitere, beispielhafte Ausführungsform des erfin- dungsgmässen Deckbogens 1, in dem ein Druckprodukt 2 fertig verpackt ist. Figur 8 zeigt die Verpackung von vorne und Figur 9 im Schnitt (Schnittlinie IX-IX, Figur 8). Der dargestellte, nicht vollständig ausgestanzte Bereich 7 des Deckbogens 1 ist gleichzeitig für eine Fensterfunktion und eine Verschliessfunktion ausgerüstet. Der Bereich 7 ist gleich gross wie ein für den Titel und/oder die Schlagzeile des zu ver- packenden Druckproduktes vorzusehendes Fenster ausgebildet und ist auf drei Seiten ausgestanzt. Die gegen den Rand des Deckbogens 1 gerichtete Grenzlinie 22 des Bereiches 7 ist vorgefalzt. Vor, während oder nach dem Einbringen des Druckproduktes 2 in den Deckbogen 1 wird der ausgestanzte Bereich 7 entlang der vorgefalzten Grenzline 22 nach aussen gefaltet. Zum Verschliessen des Deckbogens 1 wird der teilweise ausgestanzte Bereich 7 über die offene Kante von Deckbogen 1 und Druckprodukt 2 gefaltet und auf der Rückseite 1.2 des Deckbogens 1 befestigt, beispielsweise angeklebt. Auch in dieser Ausführungsform mag es sinnvoll sein, den Deck- bogenbereich zwischen vorgefalzter Linie 22 und Deckbogenrand mit einer geeig- neten Verstärkungsschicht zu verstärkten.FIGS. 8 and 9 show a further, exemplary embodiment of the cover sheet 1 according to the invention, in which a printed product 2 is ready-packed. Figure 8 shows the packaging from the front and Figure 9 in section (section line IX-IX, Figure 8). The illustrated, not completely punched out area 7 of the cover sheet 1 is equipped for a window function and a closing function simultaneously. Range 7 is the same size as one for the title and / or the headline of the formed compressive product to be provided window and is punched out on three sides. The directed against the edge of the cover sheet 1 boundary line 22 of the area 7 is prefolded. Before, during or after the introduction of the printed product 2 into the cover sheet 1, the punched-out area 7 is folded outwards along the pre-folded boundary line 22. For closing the cover sheet 1, the partially punched-out area 7 is folded over the open edge of cover sheet 1 and printed product 2 and attached to the back of 1.2 of the cover sheet 1, for example, glued. In this embodiment, too, it may be useful to reinforce the cover sheet area between pre-folded line 22 and cover sheet edge with a suitable reinforcing layer.
Offensichtlich können die Merkmale der in den Figuren 1 bis 9 dargestellten Deckbogen, bzw. der in den Deckbogen verpackten Druckprodukte auch anders kombiniert werden, als dies in den Figuren dargestellt ist. Die dargestellten Mittel zum Verschliessen des Deckbogens können an der dem Faltrücken des Deckbogens ge- genüberliegenden Kante angeordnet sein oder auch beispielsweise an allen drei offenen Kanten der Verpackung. Entsprechend angepasste Mittel zum Verschliessen können auch an den dem Faltrücken gegenüberliegenden Eckbereichen vorgesehen werden. Durch die genannten anderen Merkmalskombinationen und durch die genannten Merkmalsvarianten entstehen weitere Ausführungsformen des Deckbogens, die ebenfalls zur Erfindung gehören. Obviously, the features of the cover sheets shown in FIGS. 1 to 9 or the printed products packed in the cover sheets can also be combined differently than shown in the figures. The illustrated means for closing the cover sheet can be arranged on the edge opposite the folding back of the cover sheet or also, for example, on all three open edges of the packaging. Appropriately adapted means for closing can also be provided on the corners opposite the fold back. By the said other combinations of features and by the mentioned feature variants arise further embodiments of the cover sheet, which also belong to the invention.
