Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transportable arrangement of a plurality of flat adjacent enveloping envelopes and a package therefor, wherein the plurality of one of the side by side parallel lined lower longitudinal edges of the envelopes Envelope formed underside, one of the juxtaposed parallel upper longitudinal edges of the envelopes Envelope, two of The narrow sides formed perpendicular to the underside and the top side parallel to one another and arranged side by side of the enveloping envelopes, one end side formed by an address side of a first envelope envelope of the plurality and another end side formed by a flap side of a last envelope envelope of the plurality.
  • Envelope envelopes are envelopes for letters and documents that are automatically filled with contents in inserting machines. This means that they have to be processed automatically in very large numbers in a very rapid sequence. It is important that the empty, to be filled enveloping envelopes are always fed properly in the same orientation, so that the provided in the inserter filling mechanism can also work accordingly, without causing stoppers. Such stoppers would be extremely expensive, since they cause a shutdown of the entire filling and inserting and the staff must intervene manually.
  • the supplied envelopes envelopes must be placed on a feed belt or in a feed chute, in such a way that then the feed mechanism can make the mentioned alignment simple and reliable.
  • the envelopes are then automatically fed into the inserter and filled there and further processed.
  • envelopes are packaged in cardboard boxes made of gray cardboard or corrugated cardboard.
  • a certain number of, for example, 750, 800 or 1000 insert envelopes are each protected in a cardboard box and can be transported on pallets.
  • the operator of the inserter takes each a cardboard box, opens it, takes out the envelopes, in which he takes with his two palms from the outside the outermost envelopes and holds between the hands, puts the stack thus obtained on the feed belt or in the feed chute of the feed mechanism , attach it to the previous envelopes and then dispose of the now empty cardboard box.
  • postboxes for enveloping envelopes have come into use.
  • These mailboxes are themselves used for transporting ordinary, filled envelopes by a mail-order company such as For example, Deutsche Post AG, but can also be used for the temporary storage of insert envelopes.
  • These postboxes form a kind of open-topped pan, into which an operator of the inserter machine or optionally also a machine can reach in and remove the stack of inserter envelopes and insert it into the feed chute or onto the feed belt of the feed mechanism of the inserting machine.
  • postboxes are made of plastic and are reusable and can be used as mentioned for other purposes, which keeps the numbers high and thus the manufacturing and storage costs despite the very complex structure within reasonable limits. Due to their shape, they can be stacked in a relatively space-saving way, but these postboxes also take up a relatively large amount of space as well as weight after their emptying and are comparatively complex in their manufacture.
  • the material is again plastic, on the one hand a film-like type of plastic for the envelope and on the other hand, a thermoplastic resin for the reinforcement, which must be disposed of separately or further treated. If the thermoplastic used heats up during storage and transport, in particular due to the film-like plastic covering, then it can cause twists of the packaging with its contents and thus bent and not optimally aligned enveloping envelopes come. In addition, just the delicate upper and lower longitudinal edges of the envelopes are unprotected.
  • the plurality of insert envelopes is surrounded by a consisting of a cardboard-like material hood body that surrounds the plurality of envelopes envelopes on its underside, its top and around the two end sides around or in part and leaving on the narrow sides, that the hood body includes two pressure-resistant rectangular discs, which are arranged on the other components of the hood body so that they lie on the two end sides of the plurality of insert envelopes, that the two rectangular discs relatively stronger than the other components of the hood body are formed, and in that the hood body has a pull tab which is arranged on one of the end sides of the plurality of insert envelopes and allows a tearing of the hood body and a peeling of the hood body of the plurality.
  • the basic idea of the invention is to use a paperboard strip of a width which is approximately the width of an insert envelope and preferably has a slightly smaller width, said paperboard strip containing the plurality of envelopes to be packaged on the long sides of the envelopes in the manner of a carton surrounds two missing pages and covers at the same time as a hood.
  • the total length of this paperboard strip with respect to this paperboard web is slightly longer than the sum of the four sides of the plurality of enveloping envelopes to be wrapped by the cap body.
  • the resulting from this extension small overlap with a specially designed for sealing and ripping once formed adhesive strip with preferably a handle element.
  • the optionally provided grip element preferably consists of a flat, non-elastic and hand-friendly material, in particular of a non-prone to cutting into a hand material. Also possible is an elastic material with similar properties.
  • One possible material for this is a polyethylene, a polypropylene or a fiber-reinforced plastic, for example a material offered under the Tyvek® brand.
  • the grip element can also be provided in the form of a larger sticker.
  • This sticker can be stuck on the outermost edge of the cardboard strip so that it protrudes over this, is folded over by 180 ° and thus comes to rest on both sides of the cardboard strip. As a result, an operator no longer has to touch the gray cardboard of the cardboard strip, but simply grips and pulls on this sticker on both sides.
  • Such labels may also be used for quite different purposes anyway and may indicate, for example, an indication of the manufacturer of the envelopes or of one type or type of the packaged envelopes and thus serve a dual purpose.
  • the entire packaging, so the cardboard strip with all elements of the hood body and the discs can be disposed of as paper; an exception might be the handle element when using Tyvek or another material that is not made of a cellulosic base consists. But even then there is at least the advantage that the entire package can be grasped as an element and further treated together, for example, to be led to a later material separation outside the space of the inserter and so does not claim the space available in this room.
  • the packaging material can be wholly or predominantly made of cellulose and disposed of in the paper cycle.
  • the packaging consists thus primarily of renewable raw materials and is environmentally friendly overall.
  • the resulting protection is practically like conventional boxes or boxes able to protect the envelopes on the bottom, the two end sides and additionally on the top against dust, moisture and other environmental influences, since it is surrounded on these pages each of the hood body. Since this is made of cardboard or cardboard, the heat and moisture of the production process can even radiate or evaporate far better.
  • the hood body In addition to a cardboard with two missing pages resembling circumferential main component or composite of the cardboard strip, the hood body on two sufficiently rigid rectangular discs on.
  • the two sufficiently rigid cardboard discs have the size and shape of the enveloping envelopes and support in this way faithfully the two ends of the stack to be packaged.
  • This hood body envelops the stack, but leaves the narrow sides of the stack with the side edges of the envelopes free.
  • the transportable arrangements are constructed in a package-like manner in floors on the pallet. It should be noted that the large number of envelopes envelopes are not each carried as a single arrangement to the inserter, but are usually piled up in bulk on pallets in turn. So there are so many stacked packaging on each other.
  • By providing the hood body according to the invention also results in an improved footprint of the enveloping envelopes on a pallet.
  • the stable hood body with cardboard sections and with the discs in the vertical and horizontal directions lead here to a defined additional protection of the individual varieties of enveloping envelopes in the bulk containers on the pallet.
  • the inventive concept makes it possible to achieve a solid stack structure and a strength and stability defined by the pressure.
  • the hood body forms a hollow body, since it has several in 90 ° to each other kinking cardboard areas. There are also the two rectangular windows.
  • the hood body thus represents two mutually opposing U-profiles with different strong profile sides. Overall, a three-dimensional, stabilizing profile, whereby the thickness of the discs can be kept relatively low.
  • punch outs can optionally be provided. These punches allow the operator or user of the inserter to free the envelope envelopes from the packaging and its packaging parts with particularly easy, simple handles.
  • the gripping element could also be provided by a suitably suitable punched in the hood body.
  • the hood body can also be formed by integrally or adhesively formed projections with punched the handle element.
  • the hood body is provided with additional reinforcing strips.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment is characterized in that the reinforcing strips are provided in the areas where the hood body extends from the bottom of the plurality of insert envelopes 90 ° up around one of the two end sides, and that the reinforcing strips transverse to the web of the hood body, ie parallel to the lower longitudinal edges of the enveloping envelopes run.
  • edge protection a simple adhesive strip made of a plastic or preferably of a fibrous cellulosic material which extends across the hood body from one side edge to the other side edge and is glued exactly on the edge arising here.
  • the reinforcing strip or strips can be applied to the hood body from outside or also from the inner sides adjacent to the enveloping envelopes.
  • the hood body is provided with alternative or additional reinforcing strips, that the reinforcing strips run along the hood body along its side edges, and that a reinforcing strip is provided on both side edges adjacent to the edge of the hood body.
  • the packaging components arranged around the envelopes are anyway made of cardboard and thus quickly penetrated by water, on the other hand these packaging components are not trough-shaped or trough-shaped, so Water in them is not caught, but can penetrate directly into the underlying sections with further insert envelopes.
  • the arrangements provided according to the invention employ enveloping envelopes which are relatively tightly pressed due to the hood bodies. Pressed paper has much less surface area available for air oxygen than loose, loose paper. If the oxygen therefore can not reach the paper surface, the corresponding pressed paper can not burn or a resulting fire can propagate only much slower and worse.
  • the enveloping envelopes pressed in the arrangements according to the invention therefore catch fire only delayed, compared with loose, loose paper, as is the case for example in conventional transport boxes in the form of enveloping envelopes set therein. Also in this context, it is of great advantage that the arrangements according to the invention manage without or with extremely few plastic components.
  • envelopes are inventively much more tightly packed and pressed than is handled in conventional transportable arrangements of envelopes with their packaging.
  • the envelope envelopes need namely in this way significantly less storage space.
  • the number of envelope envelopes stored in a specific volume in a storage room is significantly higher than in the loose, loose state. A considerable saving of storage space is possible.

  • a letter or other document having an address of an intended recipient located in the envelope envelope 10 may then be viewed and utilized by the window 17 by a mailing company.
  • the in the FIG. 1 hidden and away from the viewer flap side 16 serves to be able to open the inserter envelope automatically to place the letter or document and any facilities provided in the inserter envelope 10 and to close this after placement.
  • Such envelopes envelopes are processed by machine and this must be supplied manually or automatically in very large numbers corresponding insertion (not shown).

  • the enveloping envelopes 10 are first arranged to a plurality 20 of flat adjacent or lying envelopes. This arrangement is done by the manufacturer of enveloping envelopes 10. The stack thus formed is then suitably packaged and held together so that it forms a manageable object during transport and storage and can be placed as compact as possible and without problems on the conveyor belt of the inserter.
