  • Fig. 10 shows a plan view of a web of material of standard size comprising four of the blanks 10 shown in Figure 1.
  • the invention relates to a blank for forming a carton and a method of manufacturing the same.
  • a blank 10 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention is shown in Figure 1, the carton and enlarged portions of it are shown in Figures 7 and 2-6 respectively.
  • the blank 10 and carton constructed therefrom seek to provide an improvement over a carton formed from and blank 'P' of the prior art shown in Figure 8 and seek to provide a more efficient method of manufacturing blanks for forming cartons.
  • the blank 'P' of the prior art and blank 10 of the present invention are foldable to form cartons that can each accommodate 12 similarly sized cans, in this case twelve 440ml cans arranged in four rows of three cans each.
  • the cans (C) (as shown illustratively in Figures 2 - 4 and schematically in figure 11) are substantially cylindrical and have chamfered or tapered portions around their upper and lower rims.
  • Such beverage cartons are of standard dimensions, having a height (L) of 150mm, a maximum diameter (Dl) of 66mm and an inner minor diameter (D2) of approximately 57mm.
  • the aforementioned blanks 10, 'P' and resulting cartons are formed of paperboard. It is envisaged that other suitable foldable sheet material could be used; however a beneficial aspect of the invention is derived from the fact that cutting machines used in the field of packaging have limitations in the size of sheet material they can accommodate and the present invention presents a method of optimising the number of blanks that can be formed from a single sheet.
  • a paperboard sheet having the maximum dimensions of 1018mm x 692mm can be accommodated, for larger sheets of material a different machine having an increased sheet capacity is required for example a Format 6 cutting and printing machine can accommodate a sheet of material up to maximum dimensions of 1400mm x 1010mm.
  • a Format 7 cutting and printing machine is needed to accommodate larger sheets up to maximum dimensions of 1590mm x 1082mm.
  • the maximum dimensions of sheet material that a cutting and printing machine can accommodate determines the number of blanks that such a machine can cut at any one time.
  • the throughput of the machine can be measured by the number of carton blanks that can be printed and cut within an hour of machine running time. It is advantageous to maximise this.
  • the size of articles to be accommodated within a carton is a factor in determining the total area of a single blank which, when folded can securely contain a grouped array of articles.
  • the specific dimensions of a single blank and their nested arrangement on a sheet of material determine the number of blanks that can be cut from a single sheet of material at a time by a cutting and printing machine having a set capacity as described above.
  • the blank 'P' is provided with four main panels for forming the top, bottom and side walls of a carton having a rectangular cross-section.
  • Each of the top, bottom and side walls are hinged to an end closure panel which are constructed to form an end closure structure to secure the articles therein.
  • the construction of the end closure structure is facilitated by the use of web structures hinging between adjacent ones of the end closure panels. These web structures cause one of the associated end closure panels automatically to be brought into a closed position when the other of the end closure panels is folded upwardly.
  • the blank 'P' already known in the art has a total length Bl (see Figure 9) of 721.5mm and a width of 432mm.
  • the area required on a larger sheet of material from which this blank is cut is therefore 311688mm 2 .
  • the cutting and printing machine that can accommodate a sheet of maximum dimension of 1400mm x 1010mm can accommodate a sheet comprising three blanks 'P' (as shown in Figure 9).
  • This machine is known to be able to operate at a rate of 3000 sheets per hour. As such, with blank 'P', a maximum of 9000 blanks per hour are produced.
  • End closure panels 54a, 50a, 52a and 58a are hinged to the top 20, bottom 12 and side walls 16, 24, respectively. These end closure panels can be folded to construct an end closure structure to secure the articles therein.
  • the construction of the end closure structure is facilitated by the use of web structures 82a/86a, 80a/76a, 90a/88a, 96a/98a hinging between adjacent ones of the end closure panels 54a/52a, 52a/50a, 54a/58a and 58a/50a respectively.
  • These web structures operate in a similar way to those shown in the prior art.
  • the blank 10 has a total length D (see Figure 10) of only 695mm. This reduction in length is achieved because of the introduction of corner panels 14, 18, 22, 26 which utilise the tapered shape of the cans (C) to cut across the corners producing a carton (see Figure 7) of octagonal cross-section that more closely follows the contour and shape of the packaged group of articles.
  • the width of this blank 10 is 432mm. The area required on a larger sheet of material from which this blank is cut is therefore 300240mm 2 . Due to the reduced length of the blank 10, it is now possible to nest four blanks 10 on a sheet of material that can be accommodated by the format 6 printing and cutting machine. The new arrangement of blanks 10 of the present invention is illustrated in Figure 10.
  • each web structure 82a/86a, 80a/76a, 90a/88a, 96a/98a comprises two articulating portions or gusset panels 82a, 86a, 80a, 76a, 90a, 88a, 96a and 98a.
  • FIG. 4 A step in the construction of the end closure structure is shown in Figure 4.
  • Side end closure panels 52a, 58a have been folded outwardly of the carton causing the web structures to fold about hinge lines 82a, 92a and causing the top end closure panel 54a and associated bevel panel 56a to be folded into a closed position wrapping around an endmost can (C).
  • first articulating portions 86a, 88a are each folded atop the endmost can (C) and into overlapping relationship therewith.
  • Second articulating portions 84a, 90a are drawn towards the side end closure panels 52a, 58a.
  • the web structures provide a further advantage given that the fully enclosed carton as shown in Figure 7 comprises bevelled corners defined by panels 56a and 66a/64a.
  • These bevelled corner panels enable the carton to be supported by the contents and advantageously create a carton with high stacking strength. Because the carton fits closely around the contents, even though they may be curved, the are no or only very few empty spaces within a fully loaded carton and as such the cartons susceptibility to crushing or damage at empty corners is substantially eliminated.
  • These bevelled panels enable the minor end closure panels 54a, 50a/62a to follow the contour of a cylindrical or at least non- rectangular article (see figure 4). As a result of this cornered bevelled edge 56a, 66a/64a, the completely formed package of carton and articles is secure.
  • the articles fit tightly within the carton and cannot rattle or bump into other articles. Such bumping could cause damage to the articles and/or failure of the carton.
  • the bevelled corners of the end closure structure are disposed at 90 degrees or at least substantially perpendicularly (see blank of figure 1 and relation between fold lines 72a/74a and 34/36). Once the blank is set up into a carton the web structures having two articulating portions and the shaped aperture formed therebetween assists in the formation of an end closure structure that is substantially rectangular for a tubular structure of octagonal cross-section.
  • the exact size and shape of the panels, corner panels and web structures may be adjusted to accommodate articles of differing size or shape tolerance relative to the precise measurements given in the afore described example.
  • the total length of a single blank is in the range 1390 to 1400mm.
  • the packaged articles have a differently angled taper at their upper rim compared to their lower rim and therefore the width of the corner panel between panel 16 and panels 12, 20 may be different from the width of the corner panel between panel 24 and panels 12 and 20.
  • the total width of the blank in other embodiments is sized according to the height and maximum and minimum diameter of an article.
  • hinged connection should not be construed as necessarily referring to a single fold line only; indeed it is envisaged that hinged connection can be formed from one or more of the following, a short slit, a frangible line or a fold line without departing from the scope of the invention.
