Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container for solid, pasty, as well as pourable and creatively products, especially for food products, comprising a container bottom for receiving the product and a container lid designed as a container top, wherein the container base 1 has a closed, running around its container opening edge, in that the container upper part consists of a collar element extending around the container opening and comprising a collar-like cover element such that the cover element is fastened to the collar element and is fastened detachably by gluing and / or welding to the edge of the container lower part.
  • a container in which a lid member is fixed to a collar member, wherein the collar member has a circumferential, with its free end directed to the lid member protrusion surface on which the lid member is fixed.
  • the lid member is not attached to the edge of the container.
  • containers i.d.R. Made of plastic material and i.d.R. be prepared by known injection molding techniques.
  • Containers of this or similar type are commercially available in a wide variety of sizes and are used in the most diverse shapes for all sorts of products which are to be packed hygienically or germ-free.
  • Products that are offered for example in such containers as packaging units in grocery stores, for example, dairy products of all kinds, meat and sausage products, but also vegetables and fruit products and finished products in chilled and uncooled form.
  • the generic containers are mass products which are intended to absorb the products of the type described above by way of example hygienically, germ-free and airtight, they must be very cost-effective to produce from the market, ie on the one hand by the manufacturers of the products and on the other hand by the consumers to be accepted. Furthermore, such containers must be as complete as possible, many times Sufficient information is also provided on the content, composition of the product, the energy content of the product, information on the date of manufacture and expiry, as well as certain other information required by law in certain countries on the health-friendliness of the product contained in the container and the like.
  • such containers are i.d.R. provided with separate labels that declare such information and the corresponding parameters about the product to the consumer.
  • labels and manufacturer names specially protected brands and the like. Attached and i.d.R.
  • the product itself is also depicted, for example the sausage product, the cheese product or a product in the form of liver pate or the like.
  • the separate labels have the disadvantage that they significantly increase the production of the container, since then the container are applied to the container after filling the product and closing the container either on the container itself, the container base or if necessary. On the container lid and the actual container got to.
  • a third variant of containers is known in which a lid produced in the course of the production of the container lid by the method of the so-called "Immolded Label (IML)" in the injection mold is already connected to the film which forms the outer end of the container lid and an edge region of the film projecting beyond the container lid is connected to the container.
  • Such containers show the serious disadvantage that the unreinforced in the edge region of the container lid label or the film tears uncontrollably when opening the container or tear and also by the notch effect when tearing between the film and container lid, despite using the technique according to the method of "Immolded Label", the foil from the Be psychologist dekkel uncontrollably tears off and the container can only be opened with foreign tools such as a pair of scissors or a knife. It goes without saying that such an opened lid is no longer able to close the container opening even if only in a makeshift manner when the product received in the container is not yet completely removed.
  • Another major disadvantage is that many pollution of the environment or the consumer or user himself is the result of wanting to open a container designed in this way.
  • a significant cost-driving factor are the high production costs of the tools for the injection molds for the production of the above-described, in particular the generic container. With some exceptions, it can be said that the manufacturing costs of injection molds or tools are the lower, the allegedly simpler the products produced therewith.
  • the term "simplicity" in the context of the final product produced should be understood to mean that it can be made in fewer and fewer process steps yet form a highly complex but highly efficient end product upon completion. It is therefore desirable that a simple production tool is provided, with which a possibly real highly complex, highly effective end product, here a container of the generic type, can be produced in a simple manner. Although this goal is achieved in principle in the generic container in its entirety.
  • the production of the injection molding tool is a very cost-intensive factor, see above, which is directly received in the final production costs of these containers, depending on the number of containers produced therewith. Roughly, the statement can be made that the simpler the injection molding tool is designed, the lower its manufacturing cost and the simpler the injection mold is formed, the easier the process steps with the tool regularly executable to the complete container, but especially the container top ( Cover), and the faster the container or its components can be made.
  • the collar member has a projection which forms an imaginary space with the container bottom with an approximately triangular cross-section in the closed state of the container by the bottom of the container attached container top, and with a circumferential, with its free End directed onto the lid member projecting surface is directed to the edge of the container base, wherein on the protruding surface, the lid member is fixed and the free end rests directly or via the intermediate lid member on the edge.
  • the advantage of the solution according to the invention consists essentially, as desired, is that the actual sheet-like cover part is also integral here and together with the circumferential collar member, which forms a mechanical support to ensure the dimensional stability of the lid member here, the container base, ie the content
  • the attachment of the lid member to the lid member directed to the projection surface, which is formed at the free end of the collar member, a formation of the attachment of the lid member on the collar member is possible, which is quasi allowed in a manufacturing step, the production of the collar member and the lid member.
  • Another significant advantage of this offered solution according to the invention consists essentially in the fact that the injection molding tool can be configured so constructive that the attachment, as desired, can be virtually realized in one operation with the production of the collar member, if necessary. Also in one operation with the Production of the lid, wherein it is also possible according to the invention to perform collar element, cover element and attachment in one step with correspondingly designed injection molding tool.
  • the lid member is secured to the edge such that it covers it at least partially, that is, depending on the material of the lid member and / or in dependence of the material of the container base and / or in dependence of a material which causes the attachment of the lid member on the edge. If necessary, the mounting width of the lid member can be selected on the edge, whereby the choice of the actual mounting width on the edge depending on the size of the container is possible. Low-weight food products taken in the container Will not require the width of the fixture like heavy weight products.
  • the edge of the container base is at least partially formed in the manner of a circumferential flange, i.
  • container bases as generally in the simplest containers, for example the well-known sogn. Yogurt containers and its modifications, are known.
  • the container bottom can thus be designed very simply, without thereby impairing the operability of the container, i. the above-described interaction of the container top with the container base is adversely affected.
  • peripheral flange of the container base to the opening of the container base, the peripheral edge around the opening of the container base, based on a thinking on a substrate resting on the container base substantially parallel to the ground, i. this reference - underground - always to maintain the formation of the circumferential flange, regardless of the cross-sectional shape of the actual container base.
  • containers or container bases may have any suitable cross-sectional shapes per se, for example trapezoidal, rectangular, bottle-shaped but also cup-shaped structures and the like.
  • the flange is always parallel to a reference plane, namely here the ground formed.
  • the lid member is fixed inside the projection surface, which has the advantage that the production the connection between the cover element and the edge element can be done quasi in a manufacturing process, since, if the elements are made of plastic sprayable needs to be sprayed from one side only in the injection mold of the plastic.
  • this embodiment of the invention also has the advantage that the fastening or the fastening area between the cover element and the edge is not visible from the outside, ie there is a visual protection and also a mechanical protection, because the cover element is then also in front of an "upstand". or tearing off ".
  • the cover element may preferably also be fastened to the outside of the projection surface, which would be an alternative way of fastening, for example, in the desirable case if one wishes to make the externally visible, available surface of the cover element as large as possible because one endeavors for certain purposes, as much information as necessary for the consumer, for example, from the outside visible on the cover element accommodate.
  • the edge regions of the cover element, on which the connection with the collar element takes place could be fully utilized for printing and the like.
  • the lid member itself is formed according to a further very advantageous embodiment of the container of a foil-like body, it may also be advantageous to form the lid member together with the circumferential collar member in one piece, which z. B. technically feasible in that the entire container top can be made in a single injection molding process in a single suitably shaped injection mold, wherein at the same time by the method the aforementioned "Immolded Label (IML)" the application of the visible from the outside of the viewer visual information about the contents of the container as well as other information in the injection mold in the course of production of the container shell can be done.
