Abstract

A packaging for foodstuffs and/or semi-luxury products produced in the form of bars, such as chocolate bars, containing two or more bars lying on top of each other, wherein each bar is wrapped in a sheet on all sides and the bars thus wrapped are enveloped by a wrapper sheet, characterized in that all bars lie flatly on top of each other in the form of a stack of bars and all bars lying on top of each other are embraced by a single continuous wrapper sheet, namely on at least three adjacent sides of each individual bar, with all fold lines of the wrapper sheet running parallel to each other.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verpackung für tafelförming produzierte Lebens- und/oder Genussmittel, wie Schokoladetafeln, zwei oder mehrere übereinanderliegende Tafeln enthaltend, wobei jede Tafel allseitig in eine Folie eingeschlagen ist, die so eingeschlagene Tafel von einer Umschlagfolie ummantelt ist und sämtliche Tafeln flächig in Form eines Tafelstapels übereinanderliegen.The invention relates to a packaging for tabular produced food and / or luxury products, such as chocolate bars, containing two or more superimposed panels, each panel is wrapped in a foil on all sides, the panel so wrapped is covered by a wrapper and all panels in shape stacked on top of each other.

Gemäß dem Stand der Technik sind Schokoladetafeln von der Umschlagfolie (Banderole) in Umfangsrichtung geschlossen ummantelt, sodass die Umschlagfolie eine geschlossene Schleife bildet, die sich über den gesamten Umfang der Schokoladetafel erstreckt, wobei die Enden der Umschlagfolie an der Rückseite der Schokoladetafel übereinander zu liegen kommen und miteinander verklebt sind. Die Schokoladetafel wird beim Auspacken aus der Umschlagfolie quer zur Umfangsrichtung herausgeschoben und aus der Folie ausgewickelt. Hierbei ist die Schokoladetafel meist in der in Kuvertform gefalteten Folie eingeschlossen, wobei die Kuvertklappen an der Unterseite bzw. Rückseite der Schokoladetafel zu liegen kommen.According to the prior art, chocolate bars are wrapped circumferentially closed by the wrapper so that the wrapper forms a closed loop that extends over the entire circumference of the chocolate bar with the ends of the wrapper overlapping each other at the back of the chocolate bar and glued together. When unpacking, the chocolate bar is pushed out of the envelope film transversely to the circumferential direction and unrolled out of the film. In this case, the chocolate bar is usually enclosed in the folded in envelope film, the envelope flaps come to rest on the bottom or back of the chocolate bar.

Gelangen solche Schokoladetafeln einzeln in Verkehr, erfordern sie eine bestimmte Mindestdicke, um einen Transport bzw. das Einschlichten in Verkaufsregale und weiters die Entnahme durch einen Kunden, das Verstauen in einem Einkaufssack oder -korb etc. unzerbrochen zu überstehen. Will man diese Mindestdicke unterschreiten, ist es erforderlich, jede Tafel mit einem Karton, der ebenfalls von der Umschlagfolie ummantelt ist, zu unterstützen.When such chocolate bars are individually placed on the market, they require a certain minimum thickness in order to survive uninterrupted transport or finishing on store shelves and further removal by a customer, stowage in a shopping bag or basket, etc. If you want to go below this minimum thickness, it is necessary to support each panel with a cardboard, which is also covered by the envelope film.

Bei einem Verzicht auf einen solchen Karton ist es für besonders dünne Schokoladetafeln wiederum erforderlich, diese jeweils mit einer Umschlagfolie ummantelten Tafeln zu stapeln und in einer separaten Schachtel, die für den Transport erforderliche Steifheit aufweist, unterzubringen.In the absence of such a carton, for very thin chocolate bars, again, it is necessary to stack these panels, each wrapped in a wrap-around foil, and place them in a separate box having the rigidity required for transport.

Die Erfindung bezweckt die Vermeidung dieser Nachteile und Schwierigkeiten und stellt sich die Aufgabe, eine neuartige Verpackung der eingangs beschriebenen Art für tafelförmig produzierte Lebens- und/oder Genussmittel zu schaffen, die es ermöglicht, solche Tafeln auch sehr dünn auszubilden und unter minimalem Verbrauch von Verpackungsmaterial gegen Zerbrechen weitestgehend geschützt auf den Markt zu bringen.The invention aims to avoid these disadvantages and difficulties and has set itself the task of creating a novel package of the type described above for tabular produced food and / or luxury food, which makes it possible to form such panels very thin and with minimal consumption of packaging material protected against breakage as far as possible on the market.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass sämtliche übereinanderliegende Tafeln von einer einzigen zusammenhängende Umschlagfolie umschlungen sind, und zwar an mindestens drei aneinander grenzenden Seiten jeder einzelnen Tafel, sodass die Umschlagfolie mindestens zwischen zwei übereinanderliegenden Tafeln des Tafelstapels angeordnet ist, wobei alle Faltlinien der Umschlagfolie zueinander parallel verlaufen.This object is achieved according to the invention in that all overlapping panels are looped around by a single contiguous cover sheet on at least three adjoining sides of each individual panel so that the cover sheet is arranged at least between two superimposed panels of the panel stack, with all fold lines of the cover sheet together run parallel.

Eine weitere Ausführungsform einer erfindungsgemäβen ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass sämtliche übereinanderliegende Tafeln in einer einzigen zusammenhängenden, diese beiden bzw. diese mehreren Tafeln umschlingenden Umschlagfolie eingeschlagen sind, und zwar an mindestens drei, vorzugsweise an vier aneinander grenzenden Seiten jeder einzelnen Tafel, wobei die Tafeln in einer in Kuvertform gefalteten Folie eingeschlossen sind und jeweils eine Kuvertklappe an einem Abschnitt der sie umgebenden Umschlagfolie befestigt, vorzugsweise angeklebt, ist.A further embodiment of a device according to the invention is characterized in that all overlapping panels are wrapped in a single contiguous envelope wrapping these two or more panels on at least three, preferably four adjoining sides of each individual panel are enclosed in an envelope-folded film and each attached an envelope flap at a portion of the surrounding envelope film, preferably glued, is.

Folgender Stand der Technik ist bekannt:The following prior art is known:

Die US 2,210,194 A zeigt eine Verpackung für Kaugummi, in der die einzelnen Kaugummistreifen jeweils in Folie geschützt eingeschlagen sind und ebenfalls wie Tafeln auf einem Stapel übereinander liegen. Der Stapel der einzelnen Kaugummistreifen ist mit einer bedruckbaren Umschlagfolie versehen, die allerdings nur außen den gesamten Stapel an zwei oder mehreren Seiten umhüllt.The US 2,210,194 A shows a packaging for chewing gum, in which the individual chewing gum strips are wrapped in each case protected in foil and also like tablets on a stack one above the other. The stack of individual chewing gum sticks is provided with a printable envelope foil which, however, only envelopes the outside of the entire stack on two or more sides.

Die US 2005 252 809 A1 zeigt eine Verpackung für Nahrungs- und Genussmittel etc., welche aus zwei separaten Fächern (oberes und unteres Fach) besteht. Jedes der Fächer wird von einem eigenen separaten Pappumschlag gebildet. Die Umschläge werden gefaltet, wodurch die Fächer gebildet werden. Danach wird das untere Fach so an dem oberen Fach befestigt, dass das untere Fach später entlang einer Perforation abgetrennt werden kann, wenn es leer ist.The US 2005 252 809 A1 shows a packaging for food and beverages, etc., which consists of two separate compartments (upper and lower compartment). Each of the compartments is formed by its own separate cardboard envelope. The envelopes are folded, forming the compartments. Thereafter, the lower tray is attached to the upper tray so that the lower tray can be separated later along a perforation when it is empty.

Aus der US 2,192,473 A geht eine Verpackung der eingangs erwähnten Art für Kaugummi hervor, welche sich buchartig öffnen lässt und mehrere (in der Zeichnung sechs) Fächer für die Kaugummistreifen aufweist. Die einzelnen Fächer für die Kaugummis sind dabei nebeneinander angeordnet.From the US 2,192,473 A goes out a packaging of the type mentioned for chewing gum, which can be opened like a book and several (in the drawing six) compartments for having the chewing gum sticks. The individual compartments for the chewing gum are arranged side by side.

Aus der US 2,210,196 A geht eine Verpackung für Kaugummi hervor, welche mehrere Kaugummis in ziehharmonikaartiger Weise miteinander verbindet. Die einzelnen Streifen sind zwar in Form eines Stapels angeordnet, jedoch bis auf den ersten Streifen nur an zwei Seiten von einer gemeinsamen Umschlagfolie bedeckt.From the US 2,210,196 A A packaging for chewing gum emerges, which connects several chewing gums in an accordion-like manner. Although the individual strips are arranged in the form of a stack, they are only covered on two sides by a common cover film except for the first strip.

Die DE 9100629 U1 zeigt eine Verpackung für zwei Stapel von Zellstofftüchern, bei welcher zwei Fächer gebildet werden, die jeweils einen dieser Stapel aufnehmen. Die die Fächer bildende Folie ist aus zwei miteinander verbundenen, mehrfach eingefalteten Folien gebildet.The DE 9100629 U1 shows a package for two stacks of tissue sheets, in which two compartments are formed, each receiving one of these stacks. The fan-forming film is formed from two interconnected, multi-folded films.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten erfindungsgemäßen Variante schließt die Umschlagfolie alle Tafeln an einer Seite, vorzugsweise einer Längsschmalseite, des Tafelstapels in Form eines geschlossenen buchartigen Rückens ein. Hierdurch lassen sich die Tafeln besonders einfach der Verpackung entnehmen, indem die Verpackung wie ein Buch aufgeschlagen wird.According to a preferred variant of the invention, the cover sheet includes all panels on one side, preferably a longitudinal narrow side, of the panel stack in the form of a closed book-like spine. As a result, the panels are particularly easy to remove the packaging by the packaging is opened like a book.

Vorzugsweise umschließt die Umschlagfolie die Tafeln unter Bildung einer mindestens zwei Seiten aufweisenden Buchform, wobei es möglich ist, dass jede der Seiten der Buchform wiederum zwei oder mehrere Tafeln beinhaltet.Preferably, the cover sheet encloses the panels to form a book form having at least two sides, wherein it is possible for each of the sides of the book form to again include two or more panels.

Eine bevorzugte Variante ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass nur zwei Tafeln von einer Umschlagfolie umhüllt sind, wobei zwischen den beiden übereinander angeordneten Tafeln jeweils eine Innenzunge der Umschlagfolie vorgesehen ist, sodass sich die Umschlagfolie ausgehend vom Bereich zwischen den beiden Tafeln um eine erste Tafel nach außen, um die erste Tafel herum und über die zweite Tafel hinweg bis wiederum in den Bereich zwischen den beiden Tafeln erstreckt.A preferred variant is characterized in that only two panels are enveloped by a cover sheet, wherein between the two superimposed panels each an inner tongue of the cover sheet is provided so that the cover sheet starting from the area between the two panels around a first panel to the outside, extends around the first panel and across the second panel and then into the area between the two panels.

Eine weitere zweckmäßige Variante ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass zwischen zwei übereinander angeordneten Tafeln eine hinsichtlich ihrer Steifheit die Umschlagfolie übersteigende Einlage, wie ein Karton, vorgesehen ist. Diese Einlage kann zur Erhöhung der Steifheit des gesamten Tafelstapels dienen, oder auch nur dazu, Informationen über den Inhalt und den Aufbau der Tafeln beizugeben.A further expedient variant is characterized in that between two sheets arranged one above the other there is provided an insert, such as a cardboard, which exceeds the cover sheet in terms of its stiffness. This insert can serve to increase the stiffness of the entire stack of sheets, or even just to provide information about the content and structure of the panels.

Vorzugsweise ist die Einlage zwischen zwei Abschnitten der Umschlagfolie eingelegt.Preferably, the insert is inserted between two sections of the cover sheet.

Eine andere bevorzugte Ausführungsform sieht vor, dass die von der Umschlagfolie eingeschlagenen Tafeln gegen Öffnen mittels einer Sicherungseinrichtung gesichert sind, wobei zweckmäßig die Sicherungseinrichtung von einem Klebeetikett gebildet ist.
Hierbei ist beim Auspacken der Tafeln die Sicherungseinrichtung entweder zu entfernen oder zu durchtrennen. Daher bildet eine solche Sicherheitseinrichtung gleichzeitig einen Garantiehinweis dafür, dass die Verpackung mitsamt den Tafeln noch unversehrt, also ungeöffnet, ist.Another preferred embodiment provides that the enveloped by the envelope sheet panels are secured against opening by means of a securing device, wherein expediently the securing device is formed by an adhesive label.
When unpacking the panels, the securing device must either be removed or severed. Therefore, such a safety device at the same time forms a guarantee that the packaging, together with the panels, is still intact, ie unopened.

Zum besonders einfachen Entnehmen einer Tafel ist die Verpackung dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Tafeln in einer in Kuvertform gefalteten Folie eingeschlossen sind, wobei jeweils eine Kuvertklappe an einem Abschnitt der sie umgebenden Umschlagfolie befestigt, vorzugsweise angeklebt, ist und wobei die Vorderseite jeder Tafel der Seite der Kuvertklappen zugewendet ist.For particularly simple removal of a panel, the package is characterized in that the panels are enclosed in an envelope-folded foil, one envelope flap attached to, preferably glued to, a portion of the surrounding envelope sheet, and the front side of each panel side of the panel Envelope flap is facing.

Vorzugsweise ist die Umschlagfolie für Tafeldicken von 2 bis 10 mm, vorzugsweise von 2 bis 5 mm, bemessen.Preferably, the cover sheet is sized for board thicknesses of 2 to 10 mm, preferably 2 to 5 mm.

Die Umschlagfolie kann mindestens zwei Tafeln spiralförmig umgeben, nach einer anderen Variante auch mäanderformig.The cover film can surround at least two panels spirally, according to another variant also meandering.

Ein Merkmal der Erfindung ist darin zu sehen, dass beide Endbereiche der Umschlagfolie zwischen zwei Tafeln zu liegen kommen.A feature of the invention is the fact that both end portions of the envelope film come to lie between two panels.

Die Erfindung ist nachfolgend anhand mehrerer in der Zeichnung dargestellter Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail with reference to several embodiments shown in the drawings.

Die Fig. 1 bis 21 veranschaulichen erfindungsgemäße Verpackungen jeweils im Schrägriss für unterschiedliche Varianten.The Fig. 1 to 21 illustrate packaging according to the invention in each case in oblique view for different variants.

Gemäß Fig. 1 sind zwei Schokoladetafeln 1 erfindungsgemäß verpackt, wobei die Schokoladetafeln 1 - es handelt sich beispielsweise um Schokoladetafeln 1 à 35 g - in Folien 2, beispielsweise in Silber- oder Goldfolien, in Kuvertform einzeln verpackt sind. Die beiden Schokoladetafeln 1 sind übereinander gestapelt angeordnet und werden von einer Umschlagfolie 3 umfangsmäßig bedeckt, wobei die kürzeren Schmalseiten 4 der Schokoladetafeln 1 von der Umschlagfolie 3 nicht bedeckt sind.According to Fig. 1 two chocolate bars 1 are packaged according to the invention, wherein the chocolate bars 1 - are, for example, chocolate bars 1 à 35 g - in films 2, for example in silver or gold foils, wrapped individually in envelope form. The two chocolate bars 1 are stacked on top of one another and are covered circumferentially by an envelope film 3, wherein the shorter narrow sides 4 of the chocolate bars 1 are not covered by the envelope film 3.

Die Umschlagfolie 3 erstreckt sich zwischen den Schokoladetafeln 1 mit einem Bug 10 über die Längsschmalseite 5 einer Schokoladetafel 1 über deren Außenfläche 6, sodann über die beiden Längsschmalseiten 5 der beiden Schokoladetafeln 1, über die Außenfläche 6 der zweiten Schokoladetafel 1 und wiederum mit einem Bug 10 über die Längsschmalseite 5 der zweiten Schokoladetafel 1 bis in den Bereich zwischen den Schokoladetafeln 1, sodass beide Endbereiche 7 der Umschlagfolie 3 jeweils zwischen zwei Schokoladetafeln 1 zu liegen kommen.The cover sheet 3 extends between the chocolate bars 1 with a bow 10 on the longitudinal narrow side 5 of a chocolate bar 1 on the outer surface 6, then on the two longitudinal narrow sides 5 of the two chocolate bars 1, on the outer surface 6 of the second chocolate bar 1 and again with a bow 10th over the longitudinal narrow side 5 of the second chocolate bar 1 into the area between the chocolate bars 1, so that both end areas 7 of the envelope film 3 each come to rest between two chocolate bars 1.

Zwischen den beiden Endbereichen 7 der Umschlagfolie 3 ist ein Karton 8 eingelegt, der beispielsweise mit Informationen über das Produkt bedruckt sein kann.Between the two end portions 7 of the cover sheet 3, a box 8 is inserted, which may be printed, for example, with information about the product.

Wie aus Fig. 1 zu erkennen ist, bilden die beiden Schokoladetafeln 1 mitsamt der Umschlagfolie 3 eine Verpackung nach der Art eines Buches mit einem Rücken 9 und zwei Seiten, wobei ein Aufschlagen des Buches durch ein Klebeetikett 11, das sich über zwei Längsschmalseitenflächen 5 bzw. die Büge 10 der Schokoladetafeln erstreckt, verhindert ist.How out Fig. 1 can be seen, form the two chocolate bars 1 together with the cover sheet 3 a package in the manner of a book with a back 9 and two sides, wherein a beating of the book by an adhesive label 11, which extends over two longitudinal narrow side surfaces 5 and the straps 10 of Chocolate bars extends, is prevented.

Wie aus den Fig. 2 und 4 zu ersehen ist, werden die Schokoladetafeln 1 mit dem Kuvertverschluss 12 nach unten auf die Umschlagfolie 3, die beispielsweise für Schokoladetafeln 1 à 35 g ein Maß einer Länge von 220 mm und einer Breite von 121 mm aufweist, aufgelegt. Die Distanz 13 zwischen den Schokoladetafeln 1 beträgt knapp mehr als die Dicke 14 der beiden Schokoladetafeln 1. Die freien Endbereiche 7 der Umschlagfolie werden sodann über die Schokoladetafeln 1 gelegt, wodurch sich zwei Innenzungen 16 bilden. Durch Zusammenklappen in Richtung der Pfeile 15 wird das in Fig. 1 dargestellte Paket gebildet, worauf das Klebeetikett 11 angebracht wird, und zwar nach Einschieben des gegebenenfalls vorgesehenen Kartons 8. Die Verpackung weist dann z.B. ein Maß von 51x121x14 mm auf.Like from the Fig. 2 and 4 can be seen, the chocolate bars 1 are placed with the envelope seal 12 down on the cover sheet 3, which has a measure of length of 220 mm and a width of 121 mm, for example, for chocolate bars 1 à 35 g. The distance 13 between the chocolate bars 1 is slightly more than the thickness 14 of the two chocolate bars 1. The free end portions 7 of the envelope film are then placed over the chocolate bars 1, whereby two inner tongues 16 form. By folding in the direction of arrows 15, the in Fig. 1 formed package, whereupon the adhesive label 11 is attached, after insertion of the optionally provided carton 8. The packaging then has, for example, a measure of 51x121x14 mm.

Der Karton 8 ist nicht unbedingt notwendig; auf diesen kann auch verzichtet werden, sofern die sehr dünnen Schokoladetafeln 1 im gestapelten Zustand eine hinreichende Festigkeit gegen Bruch beim Transport aufweisen. Hierbei ist zu beachten, dass alleine durch die beiden Innenzungen 16 und die Kanten der Umschlagfolie 3 schon eine wesentliche Erhöhung der Festigkeit der Verpackung gegenüber herkömmlichen Schleifen, wie sie für Schokoladetafeln 1 verwendet werden, gegeben ist.The box 8 is not absolutely necessary; These can also be dispensed with, provided that the very thin chocolate bars 1 in the stacked state have sufficient resistance to breakage during transport. It should be noted that even by the two inner tongues 16 and the edges of the cover sheet 3 already a significant increase in the strength of the packaging over conventional loops, as used for chocolate bars 1, is given.

Das Klebeetikett 11 kann hinsichtlich seiner Form unterschiedlich gestaltet sein. Es ist auch denkbar, anstelle des Klebeetiketts 11 die Umschlagfolie 3 mit einer Bandschleife zu umfassen oder die Innenzunge 16 an den zur Anlage gelangenden Seiten miteinander zu verkleben.The adhesive label 11 may be designed differently in terms of its shape. It is also conceivable, instead of the adhesive label 11, the envelope film 3 with a ribbon loop or glue the inner tongue 16 together at the abutting sides.

Eine Verpackung ohne Karton ist in Fig. 3 veranschaulicht.A packaging without cardboard is in Fig. 3 illustrated.

Das Öffnen der Verpackung 1 geschieht nach Fig. 4, und zwar nach Entfernen des Klebeetiketts 11 oder nach Aufreißen desselben. Sodann wird das Paket auseinander geklappt, also das Buch aufgeschlagen, und es können die beiden Schokoladetafeln 1 entnommen werden. Vorteilhaft ist, wenn jeweils eine der Kuvertklappen 17 jeder der beiden Folien 2 an der Umschlagfolie 3 befestigt ist, z.B. angeklebt ist, sodass beim Hochheben der Schokoladetafeln 1 sich diese Kuvertklappen 17 automatisch öffnet, wie dies in Fig. 4 veranschaulicht ist. Die Schokoladetafeln 1 zeigt dann vorzugsweise die schöne Oberseite 18, die auch mit einem Muster verziert sein kann, dem Betrachter. Herkömmlich sind die Schokoladetafeln 1 so verpackt, dass beim Öffnen der Kuvertklappe die Rückseite der Schokoladetafel als erstes zu sehen ist.The opening of the package 1 happens after Fig. 4 , after removal of the adhesive label 11 or after tearing it. Then the package is unfolded, so the book opened, and it can be taken from the two chocolate bars 1. It is advantageous if in each case one of the envelope flaps 17 of each of the two films 2 is attached to the cover sheet 3, for example, is glued, so when you lift the chocolate bars 1, this envelope flap 17 opens automatically, as in Fig. 4 is illustrated. The chocolate bars 1 then preferably shows the beautiful top 18, which may also be decorated with a pattern, to the viewer. Conventionally, the chocolate bars 1 are packaged so that when you open the envelope flap, the back of the chocolate bar is the first to see.

Fig. 6 zeigt in zu Fig. 4 analoger Darstellung das Öffnen der Folie, wobei die Kuvertklappe 17 an der Innenseite der Innenzunge 16 befestigt ist. Fig. 6 indicates in Fig. 4 analogous representation of the opening of the film, wherein the envelope flap 17 is attached to the inside of the inner tongue 16.

Durch das Ankleben der Kuvertklappe 17 an der Umschlagfolie 3 ist auch ein Herausgleiten einer Schokoladetafel 1 aus der Umschlagfolie 3 zuverlässig verhindert.By sticking the envelope flap 17 to the cover film 3, a sliding out of a chocolate bar 1 from the cover film 3 is reliably prevented.

In den Fig. 8 bis 11 ist eine erfindungsgemäße Verpackung für drei übereinander gestapelte Schokoladetafeln 1 abgebildet, wobei eine der Schokoladetafeln 1 von der Umschlagfolie 3 umhüllt ist, analog zu der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Variante, und die beiden anderen übereinander liegenden Schokoladetafeln 1 von der sich in Spiralform erstreckenden Umschlagfolie 3 eingeschlossen sind.In the 8 to 11 a packaging according to the invention for three stacked chocolate bars 1 is shown, wherein one of the chocolate bars 1 is enveloped by the cover sheet 3, analogous to that in Fig. 1 illustrated variant, and the other two superimposed chocolate bars 1 are enclosed by the extending in a spiral form envelope 3.

Die Fig. 12 bis 16 zeigen eine Variante für vier gestapelte Schokoladetafeln 1, wobei jeweils zwei Schokoladetafeln 1 ebenfalls von einer sich in Spiralform erstreckenden Umschlagfolie 3 umschlossen sind.The Fig. 12 to 16 show a variant of four stacked chocolate bars 1, wherein in each case two chocolate bars 1 are also enclosed by a spiral-extending envelope 3.

Die Fig. 15 und 16 zeigen unterschiedliche Arten der Befestigung der Kuvertklappen 16 der Folie 2 der Schokoladetafeln 1 an der Umschlagfolie 3, wodurch sich unterschiedliche Öffnungsarten ergeben.The FIGS. 15 and 16 show different ways of securing the envelope flap 16 of the film 2 of the chocolate bars 1 to the cover sheet 3, resulting in different types of opening.

Fig. 17 zeigt eine Variante, bei der vier gestapelt angeordnete Schokoladetafeln 1 insgesamt in einer Verpackung verpackt sind, wobei die Umschlagfolie 3 einerseits eine Schokoladetafel 1 und andererseits drei Schokoladetafeln 1 umschließt, wobei sich die Umschlagfolie 3 wiederum in Spiralform über die drei Schokoladetafeln 1 erstreckt. Auch hierdurch ist eine Verpackung in Buchform mit einem Rücken 9 und zwei Seiten gebildet, von denen eine drei Schokoladetafeln 1 und eine nur eine einzige Schokoladetafel 1 umfasst. Fig. 17 shows a variant in which four stacked arranged chocolate tablets 1 are all wrapped in a package, the envelope film 3 on the one hand a chocolate bar 1 and on the other hand three chocolate bars 1 encloses, wherein the envelope film 3 in turn extends in a spiral over the three chocolate bars 1. This also forms a book-shaped package with a spine 9 and two sides, one of which comprises three chocolate bars 1 and one single chocolate bar 1.

Gemäß Fig. 18, die eine weitere Ausführungsform für vier gestapelte Schokoladetafeln 1 veranschaulicht, erstreckt sich die Umschlagfolie 3 im Unterschied zu Fig. 17 in Mäanderform über drei der Schokoladetafeln 1.According to Fig. 18 , which illustrates another embodiment for four stacked chocolate bars 1, the cover sheet 3 extends unlike Fig. 17 meandering over three of the chocolate bars 1.

Eine mäanderförmige Umschlingung von vier Schokoladetafeln 1 ist in Fig. 19 veranschaulicht.A meandering loop of four chocolate bars 1 is in Fig. 19 illustrated.

Fig. 20 zeigt eine Variante für eine Verpackung von zwei Schokoladetafeln 1, gemäß der die Schokoladetafeln 1 nicht in Buchform verpackt sind; diese Verpackung lässt vielmehr eine Öffnung der Verpackung von beiden Längsschmalseiten 5 der Schokoladetafeln 1 zu, sodass auch beide Längsseiten des Paketes mit einem Klebeetikett 11 gesichert werden müssten. Fig. 20 shows a variant for a packaging of two chocolate bars 1, according to which the chocolate bars 1 are not packaged in book form; Rather, this packaging allows an opening of the packaging of both longitudinal narrow sides 5 of the chocolate bars 1, so that both sides of the package with an adhesive label 11 would have to be secured.

Fig. 21 zeigt wiederum eine Variante für fünf übereinander gestapelte Schokoladetafeln 1, wobei hier wiederum ein Rücken 9 gemäß einem Buch gebildet ist. Fig. 21 again shows a variant of five stacked chocolate bars 1, which in turn here a back 9 is formed according to a book.

Selbstverständlich ist es denkbar, die Schokoladetafeln bzw. andere tafelförmige Lebens- und/oder Genussmittel zuerst - also vor dem Einschlagen in die erfindungsgemäße Umschlagfolie - in einen Schlauchbeutel statt in ein Kuvert zu verpacken.Of course, it is conceivable to pack the chocolate tablets or other tabular foods and / or luxury foods first, ie before they are wrapped in the envelope film according to the invention, in a tubular bag instead of in an envelope.

Der Begriff "Folie" bzw. "Umschlagfolie" umfasst jegliches dünne biegsame Blatt, also auch aus Kunststoff, Metall, Papier etc.The term "film" or "envelope film" includes any thin flexible sheet, including plastic, metal, paper, etc.

Wesentlich für alle erfindungsgemäl3en Verpackungsarten ist, dass die einzeln in der Folie 2 eingeschlagenen Schokoladetafeln 1 von der Umschlagfolie an mindestens drei Seiten, von denen zwei die flächenmäßig größten sind, schützend bedeckt sind.It is essential for all types of packaging according to the invention that the chocolate bars 1 wrapped individually in the film 2 are covered by the envelope film on at least three sides, two of which are the largest in terms of area.
