Definitions
- the invention relates to a napkin with a square basic shape.
- DE 20 2006 017 180 U1 discloses a paper sheet which has a multiple fold to form a closed pocket, in particular for receiving cutlery.
- a bag outside forming field of the paper sheet has a serving as a slot punched out.
- DE 20 2005 005 882 U1 shows a napkin made of pulp, paper or a similar material, wherein the single-ply ground plan shape is brought into a multi-ply use form by intersecting folding lines.
- a multiple folding an open to a narrow side insertion pocket is formed, for example, serves to receive cutlery, information or the like, wherein the Einstecktaschen- opening edge is aligned parallel to and spaced from the adjacent napkin edge.
- a first folding section is about a napkin edge parallel and opposite first folding line umge- folds.
- a further fold runs centrally in the middle of the first fold line and after this a fold is made around a central second fold line then present in order to achieve the form of use having the insert pocket.
- the object is achieved by a slot which is spaced from at least one outer edge and has a length for pushing through at least a portion ei ⁇ nes cutlery.
- the piece of cutlery is inserted through the slot and the napkin is placed so that the food contact portion of the cutlery portion rests hygienically on the napkin.
- a handle portion of the cutlery is in this at least partially covered by the napkin.
- Serving staff can stockpile such a napkin with cutlery.
- the napkin is weighted with cutlery and waiters can touch the cutlery over the napkin when laying a table. After a user has removed the cutlery associated with the napkin, the napkin is to be used for appropriate protective and cleaning purposes during or after eating, wherein the slot does not interfere.
- the paper of the napkin may, for example, be a so-called airlaid nonwoven. In an embodiment, two or three parallel aligned slots are provided.
- the cutlery parts are quasi threaded through, after which the cutlery pieces are more or less covered by the napkin. Due to the large number of slots, the cutlery parts are optically appealing to the napkin, which is reliably connected to the cutlery parts.
- the slots extend in a rectangular basic shape parallel to a narrow side and spaced from the two longitudinal sides.
- one slot is sized longer than the other slots.
- the longer slot has a favorable effect on receiving a deformed region of a fork or a spoon, wherein all the slots have a length such that at least two pieces of cutlery can be inserted side by side.
- a long slot which extends almost to the longitudinal sides, may be provided both in the upper and in the middle area, when the napkin has a plurality of slots.
- the slot is knife-edge-like.
- no material is cut out of the napkin, as is known, for example, from the prior art. Rather, the entire surface of the napkin for proper covering and cleaning is available during or after the meal.
- a square arc is multiply closed a rectangular basic shape folded.
- the square sheet may correspond in size to a standard napkin and, for example, have a side length of about 400 mm.
- the multiple folding creates a kind of pocket and a free end of the cutlery pieces inserted into the slot is supported inside the pocket, while another end of the cutlery pieces projects into the open.
- the square arc in its settlement centrally and parallel to two of its opposite outer edges a first fold line to the perpendicular and equidistant fold lines, each with opposite folding directions, whereby the arc into a four by two matrix with fields of the same Size is divided into the rectangular basic shape.
- the slots are arranged either in a peripheral or a middle field.
- an outer rectangle covers the rectangular basic shape with the slots at least in regions. Accordingly, the cutlery parts are in an envelope and are largely protected from contamination.
- the upper slot is in an upper Quarter of the field arranged.
- the lower slot is disposed in a lower eighth of the field.
- Fig.l a development of a napkin according to the invention in a first embodiment
- FIG. 2 is a plan view of the napkin of FIG. 1 in the folded state
- FIG. 3 shows a plan view of the napkin according to FIG. 1 according to an alternative folding
- FIG. 5 is a plan view of the napkin of FIG. 4 in the folded state
- FIG. 7 is a plan view of the napkin of FIG. 6 in the folded state
- 8 is a plan view of the napkin in the folded state in a fourth embodiment
- FIG. 11 is a plan view of the napkin of FIG. 10 in the folded state.
- the napkin is shown in FIG. 1 of a square sheet 1 made of paper, the multiply to a rectangular
- Basic shape 2 is folded.
- the sheet 1 in the middle of its development as well as parallel to two of its opposite outer edges 3 has a first fold line 4 to which fold lines 5 run perpendicularly and equidistantly with opposite folding directions, thereby forming the sheet into a four by two matrix is divided with fields 6 of the same size in the rectangular basic shape 2.
- the field 6 in the upper right position has three parallel and spaced aligned slits 7, which extend perpendicular to the longitudinal edges 8 of the basic shape 2 and thus the corresponding field 6.
- the o- bere slot 7, which is slightly longer than the two underlying slots 7, is, seen in the longitudinal direction of the field 6, arranged in an upper quarter of the field 6, the middle slot 7 is below the center and the lower Slot 7 is arranged in a lower eighth of the field 6.
- In the slots 7 are Inserted cutlery in such a way that the grips are inserted in the top slot 7, emerge from the middle slot 6 and then inserted into the bottom slot 7.
- the ends of the handles of the cutlery pieces are therefore on the formed by a fold line 4 reversal of the sheet 1.
- a folding of two corners takes place in the area opposite the field 6 with the slots 7 after the sheet 1 is folded twice in each case in the middle of a square.
- Sonach a triangular envelope 9 is formed, which covers the field 6 with the slots 7 and thus also in the slots 6 side by side aligned recorded cutlery parts partially.
- a rectangular envelope 10 according to FIG. 3 is according to the corresponding one
- a knife-cut-like slot 7 is inserted into the field 6 in the upper right position, into which the cutlery pieces are inserted such that the grip pieces are covered by the field 6 and the areas in the field coming into contact with the food 6 of the
- slots 7 provided.
- the sheet 1 is further folded according to FIGS. 7 and 8 so that the slots 7 are in the rectangular basic shape 2 of the napkin, in which it is placed on a table for use, and the, as previously explained, in the slots 7 inserted
- the middle slit 7 is dimensioned to be longer than the other two slits 7 of equal length.
- FIG. 9 only two slits 7 are cut into the upper third of the second upper panel 6 of the napkin sheet 1, the upper one Slot 7 is dimensioned longer than the lower slot 7.
- a slot 7 in the upper quarter is embedded in the field 6 in the upper right position.
- the sheet 1 is folded to form the rectangular envelope 10 of FIG. 11, which completely covers the field 6 provided with the slot 7.
