Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine wiederverschließbare, mit einem unverklebten, unsichtbaren Verschluss versehene Faltschachtel.The invention relates to a resealable, provided with a unverklebten, invisible closure carton.

Faltschachteln spielen im Verpackungsbereich von hochwertigen Produkten, z. B. Cremes oder Parfums eine immer wichtigere Rolle. Damit die Faltschachtel als Verpackung mit dem Qualitätsanspruch des darin befindlichen Produktes in Einklang gebracht werden kann, werden an das äußere Erscheinungsbild der Verpackung immer höhere Anforderungen gestellt. Eine Anforderung ist dabei, den Verschluss der wiederverschließbaren Faltschachtel mit einer ästhetischen Schmucklasche zu versehen.Folding cartons play in the packaging of high-quality products, such. As creams or perfumes an increasingly important role. In order for the carton to be reconciled as packaging with the quality standard of the product contained therein, more and more demands are placed on the external appearance of the packaging. A requirement is to provide the closure of the resealable carton with an aesthetic jewelry tab.

Bekannte Faltschachteln mit Schmucklasche verwenden zum Verschließen beispielsweise ein Gummiband, das die Schmucklasche derart hält, dass der Verschluss im geschlossenen Zustand von außen nicht sichtbar ist. Des Weiteren können zusätzliche äußere Laschen, die von rechts und links die Deckellasche verschließen, oder ein Klebeetikett verwendet werden, das auf die das Produkt enthaltende, geschlossene Verpackung aufgeklebt wird, um sie endgültig zu verschließen. Alternativ werden permanent haftende Klebepunkte unter einer Verschlusslasche angebracht, die mehrfach geöffnet und wieder verschlossen werden können.Known folding boxes with jewelry tab use for closing, for example, a rubber band that holds the jewelry tab such that the closure is not visible from the outside in the closed state. Furthermore, additional outer tabs closing the lid flap from right and left, or an adhesive label may be used which is adhered to the closed package containing the product to finally seal it. Alternatively, permanent adhesive dots are placed under a closure flap that can be opened and closed several times.

Alle diese bekannten Verschlusselemente weisen den Nachteil auf, dass sie in einem weiteren Verpackungsschritt nach Einbringen des Produktes in die Faltschachtelverpackung zusätzlich angebracht werden müssen. Dies verlängert den Verpackungsprozess, erhöht den Materialaufwand und führt damit zu höheren Produktionskosten.All of these known closure elements have the disadvantage that they must be additionally mounted in a further packaging step after introducing the product into the carton packaging. This prolongs the packaging process, increases the cost of materials and thus leads to higher production costs.

Üblicherweise werden Faltschachtelverpackungen beim Verpackungshersteller zugeschnitten, bedruckt und vorkonfektioniert, d. h. derart vorbereitet, dass in einer Verpackungsmaschine der bekannten und weit verbreiteten Art die vorkonfektionierte Faltschachtel nur noch aufgestellt und nach Einbringen des Produktes auf möglichst einfache Art und Weise mit den der Verpackungsmaschine zur Verfügung stehenden Mitteln verschlossen werden muss.Folding box packaging is usually cut to size, printed and prefabricated by the packaging manufacturer, d. H. so prepared that in a packaging machine of the known and widely used type, the prefabricated carton only needs to be placed and closed after introduction of the product in the simplest possible way with the means available to the packaging machine.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es deshalb, eine verbesserte wiederverschließbare Faltschachtel mit einer Schmucklasche bereitzustellen, die den ästhetischen Anforderungen genügt, wie eine herkömmliche Faltschachtel bei der Konfektionierung einfach und schnell handhabbar ist und dabei ohne zusätzlich anzubringende Verschlussmittel und Verklebung auskommt.Object of the present invention is therefore to provide an improved reclosable carton box with a jewelry tab that meets the aesthetic requirements It suffices how a conventional folding box can be handled easily and quickly during assembly, and does not require any additional fastening means and adhesive bonding.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Lehre des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Ausführungsformen sind dabei in den Unteransprüchen erläutert.This object is achieved by the teaching of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments and embodiments are explained in the subclaims.

Erfindungsgemäß weist die wiederverschließbare Faltschachtel als Karton wenigstens einen Verschluss, der maschinell verschließbar ist, ohne dass es eine Verklebung der Verschlusselemente bedarf, wobei der Verschluss eine Deckelklappe mit einer Schließ- bzw. Schmucklasche, deren Innenfläche erste Haltemittel aufweist, und an einem Rumpffeld ausgebildete zweite Haltemittel auf, die mit den ersten Haltemitteln im geschlossenen Zustand des Verschlusses derart in einander greifen, dass der Verschluss durch Reibungskraft geschlossen gehalten ist, wobei die Schmucklasche die ersten und zweiten Haltemittel verdeckt. Damit wird lediglich mittels Reibungskraft der ineinander greifenden Haltemittel dafür gesorgt, dass der Verschluss geschlossen bleibt, aber auch durch die Betätigung in entgegengesetzter Richtung wieder geöffnet werden kann.According to the invention, the reclosable folding carton has as carton at least one closure which can be closed by machine without the need for gluing the closure elements, wherein the closure has a lid flap with a closing or ornamental tongue, the inner surface of which has first holding means, and second formed on a trunk field Holding means which engage with the first holding means in the closed state of the closure into each other such that the closure is held closed by frictional force, the jewelry tab covering the first and second holding means. This ensures that only the frictional force of the interlocking holding means ensures that the closure remains closed, but can also be opened again by the operation in the opposite direction.

Mit Vorteil sind die ersten Haltemittel als an einer Seite der Schmucklasche angeordnete Haltelasche ausgebildet, die zumindest teilweise mit der Innenfläche der Schmucklasche verklebt ist. Dadurch ergibt sich eine Fläche, die durch die Eigenvorspannung des Kartonmaterials eng an der Schmucklasche anliegt und gleichzeitig mit den zweiten Haltemitteln ineinander greifen kann.Advantageously, the first holding means are formed as arranged on one side of the jewelry tab retaining tab which is at least partially bonded to the inner surface of the jewelry tab. This results in a surface which fits tightly by the self-bias of the cardboard material on the jewelry tab and at the same time can engage with each other with the second holding means.

Vorteilhafter Weise ist die Haltelasche mittels einer Rilllinie an der Schmucklasche ausgebildet. Damit ist die Schmucklasche integral mit der Haltelasche ausgebildet, wodurch ein zusätzliches externes Bauelement vermieden werden kann. Das entsprechende Falten und geeignete Kleben der Haltelasche kann bereits bei der Konfektionierung der Faltschachtel durchgeführt werden.Advantageously, the retaining tab is formed by means of a crease line on the jewelry tab. Thus, the jewelry tab is formed integrally with the retaining tab, whereby an additional external component can be avoided. The corresponding folding and suitable bonding of the retaining tab can be carried out already during the assembly of the carton.

Mit weiterem Vorteil sind die zweiten Haltemittel als Zunge ausgebildet, und der Übergang zwischen der Rumpffeldkante und der Zunge weist Ausnehmungen auf, die eine Führung der ersten Haltemittel entlang der Zunge ermöglichen. Daraus ergibt sich, dass die Zunge aus dem Kartonzuschnitt durch geeignetes Anbringen von Rilllinien und Einschnitten am Rumpffeld ohne weitere Bauelemente ausgebildet werden kann. Die Einschnitte, also die seitlichen Begrenzungen der Zunge, sind bevorzugt so dimensioniert, dass sie etwas länger sind als die Breite der Haltelasche. Auf diese Weise kann die Eingreiffläche angepasst werden.With further advantage, the second holding means are formed as a tongue, and the transition between the fuselage edge and the tongue has recesses, which allow a guide of the first holding means along the tongue. It follows that the tongue can be formed from the carton blank by suitable attachment of score lines and cuts on the fuselage without further components. The cuts, so the lateral boundaries of the tongue, are preferably dimensioned so that they are slightly longer than the width of the retaining tab. In this way, the engagement surface can be adjusted.

Bevorzugter Weise sind die zweiten Haltemittel auf der Außenseite des Rumpffeldes aufgeklebt.Preferably, the second holding means are glued to the outside of the hull field.

Mit besonderem Vorteil ist der Zuschnitt der erfindungsgemäßen Faltschachtel einteilig ausgebildet. Damit ist die Faltschachtel mit Schmucklasche durch Versehen mit Rilllinien, Zuschneiden und Vorkleben derart vorkonfektionierbar, dass das Verpacken des Produktes und das Verschließen der Faltschachtel beim Hersteller des Produktes mittels bekannter Verpackungsmaschinen einfach und kostengünstig erfolgen kann.With particular advantage, the blank of the folding box according to the invention is integrally formed. Thus, the carton with jewelry tab by mistake with creasing lines, cropping and Vorkleben so prefabricated that the packaging of the product and the closing of the carton can be done easily and inexpensively by the manufacturer of the product by means of known packaging machines.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend unter Bezugnahme auf das in der Zeichnung dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel näher beschrieben. Es zeigt:

Fig. 1
den flachliegenden Kartonzuschnitt einer Faltschachtel gemäß einer Ausführungs-form der Erfindung.
The invention will be described in more detail with reference to the embodiment shown in the drawing. It shows:
Fig. 1
the flat carton blank of a carton according to an embodiment of the invention.

Die Fig. 1 zeigt den flachliegenden Kartonzuschnitt 100 einer erfindungsgemäßen Faltschachtel. Der Zuschnitt 100 besteht aus Rumpffeldern 101, 102, 103, 104, wobei sich an das Rumpffeld 101 eine Klebelasche 105 anschließt und endseitig an den Rumpffeldern 102, 104 jeweils Verschlusslaschen 106 und 107 angebracht sind. An dem Rumpffeld 101 ist eine Bodenklappe 108 angebracht, an der dem Rumpffeld gegenüberliegend eine Einstecklasche 109 angeordnet ist.The Fig. 1 shows the flat carton blank 100 of a carton according to the invention. The blank 100 consists of hull fields 101, 102, 103, 104, wherein an adhesive tab 105 adjoins the hull field 101 and end tabs 106 and 107 are respectively attached to the hull fields 102, 104. On the fuselage 101 a bottom flap 108 is attached to the fuselage field opposite a tuck 109 is arranged.

Weiterhin weist das Rumpffeld 101 an der der Bodenklappe 108 gegenüberliegenden Seite eine Deckelklappe 110 auf, die an der dem Rumpffeld 101 gegenüber liegenden Seite eine Rilllinie 111 aufweist, an der die Schmucklasche 112 angeordnet ist. An den Seiten der Schmucklasche 112 sind über Rilllinien 114 je eine Haltelasche 113 angelenkt. Diese Haltelaschen 113 werden bei der Vorkonfektionierung auf die Innenseite der Schmucklasche 112 über die Rilllinien 114 gefaltet und an den Klebflächen 115 auf der Innenseite der Schmucklasche 112 festgeklebt. Dadurch bildet sich jeweils an den ineinander gerichteten Innenseiten der Haltelasche 113 ein Bereich aus, der durch die Rilllinie 116 etwas von der Innenfläche der Schmucklasche 112 herausragt. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform haben die dadurch gebildeten seitlichen Kanten 117 der Haltelasche 113 einen Abstand von ca. 1 mm von der Innenfläche der Schmucklasche 112 im vorkonfektionierten Zustand.Furthermore, the hull field 101 on the side opposite the bottom flap 108 has a cover flap 110 which has a crease line 111 on the side opposite the trunk field 101, on which the jewelry tab 112 is arranged. On the sides of the jewelry tab 112 each retaining tab 113 are articulated via score lines 114. These retaining tabs 113 are folded in the prefastening on the inside of the jewelry tab 112 via the score lines 114 and glued to the adhesive surfaces 115 on the inside of the jewelry tab 112. As a result, an area forms on each of the inner sides of the retaining tab 113 that are directed toward one another, which protrudes somewhat from the inner surface of the jewelry tab 112 through the creasing line 116. In a preferred embodiment, the thus formed lateral edges 117 of the retaining tab 113 a distance of about 1 mm from the inner surface of the jewelry tab 112 in the prefabricated state.

Die zweiten Haltemittel, die mit den ersten Haltemitteln ineinander greifen, sind in der dargestellten Ausführungsform an dem Rumpffeld 103 ausgebildet. Die zweiten Haltemittel sind hier in Form einer Zunge 118, die aus einem Abschnitt des Rumpffeldes 103 gebildet ist, wobei die Zunge 118 zur Verschlussseite hin von der Seitenbegrenzung des Rumpffeldes 103, zum Rumpffeld 103 hin durch die Rilllinie 119 und auf ihren Seiten durch die Einschnitte 120, 121 begrenzt ist. Ausnehmungen 122, 123 sind an den Übergängen des Rumpffeldes 103 zur Zunge 118 in dem Bereich ausgebildet, wo die Einschnitte 120, 121 austreten. Die Einschnitte 120, 121 und die Ausnehmungen 122, 123 sind derart dimensioniert, dass sie eine ausreichende und vollständige Führung der seitlichen Kanten 117 der Haltelaschen 113 bieten. Im vorkonfektionierten Zustand kann die Zunge 118 durch eine geeignete Materialvorspannung derart konfiguriert sein, dass ihr freies Ende ca. 1 mm von der Seitenbegrenzung des Rumpffeldes 103 absteht. Dies vereinfacht das Ineinanderschieben bzw. -greifen der Haltemittel.The second holding means, which engage with the first holding means, are formed on the fuselage 103 in the illustrated embodiment. The second holding means are here in the form of a tongue 118, which is formed from a portion of the fuselage 103, the tongue 118 to the closure side of the side boundary of the fuselage field 103, the fuselage 103 through the crease line 119 and on their sides through the incisions 120, 121 is limited. Recesses 122, 123 are formed at the transitions of the fuselage field 103 to the tongue 118 in the region where the recesses 120, 121 emerge. The incisions 120, 121 and the recesses 122, 123 are dimensioned such that they provide sufficient and complete guidance of the lateral edges 117 of the retaining tabs 113. In the prefabricated state, the tongue 118 may be configured by a suitable material bias so that its free end protrudes about 1 mm from the side boundary of the fuselage field 103. This simplifies the telescoping or gripping the holding means.

Der Schließvorgang während des Zusammenfaltens des in der bevorzugten Ausführungsform dargestellten Faltschachtelzuschnitts erfolgt, nachdem der vorkonfektionierte Zuschnitt aufgestellt und die Bodenplatte 108 mittels der Einstecklasche 109 verschlossen wurde. Nach dem Einklappen der Verschlusslaschen 107 wird die Schmucklasche 112 an der Rilllinie 111 um ca. 90° gegenüber der Deckelklappe 110 gefaltet, derart, dass die nicht geklebten Abschnitte der Haltelasche 113 in einem möglichst spitzen Winkel auf die freiliegende Kante der Zunge 118 treffen. Schiebt man die Schmucklasche nun weiter in Richtung Bodenklappe, so greifen die freiliegenden Flächen der Haltelaschen 113 an den Einschnitten 120 und 121 immer tiefer ein, bis die Deckelklappe 110 im Wesentlichen vollständig aufliegt. Die Schmucklasche 112 wird über die an der Zungeninnenfläche und Haltelaschenaußenfläche wirkenden Haltekräfte geschlossen gehalten, und zwar umso besser, je stärker die Außenfläche der Zunge 118 und die Innenfläche der Schmucklasche 112 aneinander anliegen.The closing operation during the folding of the folding box blank shown in the preferred embodiment takes place after the prefabricated blank has been set up and the bottom plate 108 has been closed by means of the tuck tab 109. After folding the closure tabs 107, the jewelry tab 112 is folded at the score line 111 by about 90 ° relative to the lid flap 110, such that the non-glued portions of the retaining tab 113 meet at an acute angle as possible to the exposed edge of the tongue 118. If the jewelry tab is now pushed further in the direction of the bottom flap, the exposed surfaces of the retaining tabs 113 engage deeper and deeper at the notches 120 and 121 until the cover flap 110 rests substantially completely. The jewelry tab 112 is kept closed by the holding forces acting on the tongue inner surface and retaining tab outer surface, and the better, the more the outer surface of the tongue 118 and the inner surface of the jewelry tab 112 abut each other.

Schiebt man die Schmucklasche entlang der Seitenfläche der Faltschachtel in Richtung der Deckelklappe 110 wieder nach oben, so muss man die Reibungs- und Haltekraft überwinden, bis die Haltelaschen 113 die Zunge 118 freigeben. Der Schließ- und Öffnungsvorgang kann beliebig oft wiederholt werden. Die Ausnehmungen 122 und 123 bewirken, dass die freiliegenden Kanten der Haltelaschen 113 die freiliegende Kante der Zunge 118 besser aufnehmen können, d. h. dass die Zunge 118 am Beginn des Einsteckbereiches schmäler ist. Die Schlitze 120 und 121 können in einer weiteren Ausführungsform an ihrer offenen Seite verbreitert sein und bis zur Rilllinie 119 konisch zulaufen.If you push the jewelry tab along the side surface of the carton in the direction of the lid flap 110 back up, you have to overcome the friction and holding force until the retaining tabs 113 release the tongue 118. The closing and opening process can be repeated as often as desired. The recesses 122 and 123 cause the exposed edges of the retaining tabs 113 can better absorb the exposed edge of the tongue 118, that is, that the tongue 118 is narrower at the beginning of the insertion area. The slots 120 and 121 may, in another embodiment, be widened at their open side and tapered to the score line 119.

Alternativ zur dargestellten Ausführungsform können die ersten und zweiten Haltemittel auch als separate Bestandteile auf der Innenfläche der Schmucklasche bzw. der Außenfläche des Rumpffeldes 103 angebracht sein. Ein Beispiel für eine derartige Ausgestaltung ist eine an der Innenseite der Schmucklasche angebrachte Zunge, die an eine auf der Außenseite der Rumpffeld angeordnete Tasche eingreift. Es ist ebenfalls möglich, dass die ersten Haltemittel integral mit der Schmucklasche ausgebildet sind, und die zweiten Haltemittel nicht integral mit dem Rumpffeld ausgebildet sind, und umgekehrt. Auf diese Weise werden den ästhetischen Anforderungen entsprechende aufwändige Ausgestaltungen der Schmucklasche ermöglicht.Alternatively to the illustrated embodiment, the first and second holding means may also be attached as separate components on the inner surface of the jewelry tab or the outer surface of the fuselage field 103. An example of such a configuration is a tongue attached to the inside of the jewelry tab, which engages a pocket arranged on the outside of the hull field. It is also possible that the first holding means are integrally formed with the jewelry tab, and the second holding means are not integrally formed with the fuselage field, and vice versa. In this way, the aesthetic requirements corresponding elaborate designs of the jewelry tab allows.

In der dargestellten Ausführungsform hat die Schmucklasche die Form von Bogenausschnitten, die im Wesentlichen symmetrisch zu einer Spitze hin zulaufen. Alternativ können andere, auch nicht symmetrische Ausgestaltungen der Schmucklasche gewählt werden, wie z.
