Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging device for an article, the device comprising a backing member and a packaging part which is in one piece with the backing member, the packaging part, together with a portion of the backing member, being configured to form a cavity intended to enclose the article, the packaging part having a wall, two side portions, a top portion and a bottom portion, one of said portions forming an integral transition between the backing member and the packaging part.
  • the known device in WO 03/043899 has many possibilities for displaying the article housed therein and the packaging encloses the article in an acceptable way, but although the device has the advantage that the adhesive flaps are easily attachable to the backing member in that they are located on the outside of the packaging part, there is the disadvantage that the adhesive flaps thus cover portions of the backing member in a disfiguring way, and also so as to prevent decoration or text from being presented in the attachment area for the adhesive flaps. In addition, the article is not enclosed tightly enough.
  • DE 29500833U teaches the use of a single adhesive flap that is adherable to a backing member outside the cavity housing the article.
  • none of the known solutions solve the problem of providing packaging that is as tight as possible, is easy to tear open, provides an aesthetically pleasing display of an article housed in the cavity, and also does not have visible and disfiguring adhesive flaps that are external in relation to said cavity.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to remedy the disadvantages present in the prior art, and the device mentioned above is characterised according to the invention in that two of said portions have tabs for cooperating with or adhering to the two other portions inside said cavity, and that three of said portions are each provided with an adhesive flap which is folded in relation to the respective portion so that the respective adhesive flap is located inside the cavity and there is stuck to the backing member.
  • Said wall or one of said portions may optionally be provided with weaknesses or perforations for tear-opening.
  • the backing member and/or the wall may be provided with a cut-out for display of at least a part of the article when it is housed in said cavity.
  • said wall, said bottom portion and a portion of the backing member between the cut-out and the bottom may be provided with weaknesses or perforations for tear-opening.
  • said wall or one of said portions may be provided with weaknesses or perforations for tear-opening.
  • the cut-out may be covered by a transparent material adhered or glued to the backing member on the surface thereof facing the cavity.
  • the backing member has said cut-out, it is possible to conceive that a part of the backing member in extension of the portion provided with weaknesses or perforations forms a tear-open grip tab,
  • the tear-open tab may optionally be provided with marking or article-related information.
  • At least one of the adhesive flaps is provided with at least one integral tab designed to cover a part of said cut-out.
  • This tab is optionally provided with marking or article-related information.
  • the wall has a cut-out for display of at least a part of the article when it is housed in said cavity
  • one of said portions may be provided with weaknesses or perforations for tear-opening.
  • the cut-out will advantageously be covered by a transparent material stuck to the wall on the surface thereof facing the cavity.
  • the tear-off portions are suitably configured to allow the packaging to be easily torn open for access to the article that is located in the packaging cavity.
  • said tab on at least on one of the adhesive flaps is advantageous so as to facilitate the covering of a part of said cut-out on the backing member.
  • Fig. 1 shows packaging for an article, where the packaging 1 is shown punched or cut out in one piece from a single piece of material and is shown flat, i.e., in an unfolded state, consisting of a backing member 2 which is in one piece with a packaging part 3.
  • the packaging part is, together with a portion of the backing member, configured to form a cavity 4 intended to enclose the article (not shown).

  • a tear-open panel 36 is shown in the bottom portion 26, provided with weaknesses or perforations 37.
  • a tear-open panel is arranged in the top portion 25 of the packaging or in one of the side portions 23, 24.
