Abstract

For packaging foodstuffs or semi-luxury goods, the invention proposes packaging in which a protective packaging means (21) contains an inner packaging means (11) which contains the material to be packaged. The two packaging means are each produced from a strip (3, 13) by the strip being guided together to form a flexible tube (14). The inner packaging means is connected, in the region of its one end, to the outer packaging means such that, when the outer packaging means, which constitutes a protective packaging means, is torn open, the inner packaging means, rather than being destroyed, remains in the one part of the torn-open protective packaging means. The inner packaging means can preferably consist of a different material to the outer packaging means.

Description

Beschreibung Verpackung für Lebensmittel Description Packaging for food
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verpackung, insbesondere für Lebensmittel und Genussmittel, sowie ein verpacktes Genussmittel. Die Erfindung betrifft ebenfalls ein Verfahren zum Verpacken eines Genussmittels beziehungsweise Lebensmittels.The invention relates to a package, especially for food and luxury items, as well as a packaged luxury food. The invention also relates to a method for packaging a stimulant or food.
Lebensmittel und Genussmittel werden häufig in kleinen einzeln verpackten Portionen dem Benutzer angeboten. Dabei kann es sich um zum unmittelbaren Verzehr bestimmte Lebensmittel handeln, wie beispielsweise Schokoladeriegel, oder auch um Güter, die noch behandelt werden müssen, wie beispielsweise Teebeutel. Auch einzeln verpackte noch aufzubrühende Kaffeeportionen sind bekannt. An dem Beispiel der Teebeutel und der Kaffeeportionen sieht man, dass diese Verpackungen geschlossen bleiben müssen, da sie den Inhalt während des Gebrauchs umhüllen.Food and stimulants are often offered to the user in small individually wrapped portions. These may be foods intended for immediate consumption, such as chocolate bars, or even goods to be treated, such as tea bags. Individually packaged still aufzubrühende coffee portions are known. The example of the tea bags and the coffee portions shows that these packages must remain closed because they wrap the contents during use.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Verpackung insbesondere für Lebensmittel und Genussmittel zu schaffen, die sich besonders einfach und sinngemäß handhaben lässt.The invention is based on the object to provide a packaging in particular for food and luxury food, which can be handled very easily and in a logical way.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung eine Verpackung mit den im Anspruch 1 genannten Merkmalen vor. Die Erfindung schlägt ebenfalls ein Verfahren zum Verpacken von Lebensmitteln und/oder Genussmitteln vor. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand von Unteransprüchen.To solve this problem, the invention proposes a package with the features mentioned in claim 1. The invention also proposes a method for packaging foods and / or luxury foods. Further developments of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.
Die Erfindung schlägt also eine Verpackung vor, bei der in einer Schutzverpackung eine Innenverpackung angeordnet ist, die das eigentliche zu verpackende Gut, beispielsweise ein Lebensmittel, enthält. Diese Innenverpackung ist mit der Schutzverpackung an einer Stelle zugfest verbunden. Wenn der Benutzer also die Schutzverpackung öffnet, beispielsweise mit der Hand, so bleibt die Innenverpackung mit dem verpackten Gut in der Schutzverpackung enthalten und fällt nicht heraus. Damit wird nicht nur die Handhabung vereinfacht, sondern es wird auch möglich, dass der Benutzer durch Handhaben der Schutzverpackung auch die Innenverpackung mit dem verpackten Gut bewegen und handhaben kann, ohne die Innenverpackung selbst anzufassen. Dies kann insbesondere für Lebensmittel von großem Vorteil sein.Thus, the invention proposes a packaging in which a protective packaging, an inner packaging is arranged, which contains the actual goods to be packaged, for example, a food. This inner packaging is with the protective packaging on one Place connected tensile strength. Thus, when the user opens the protective packaging, for example by hand, the inner packaging with the packaged product remains in the protective packaging and does not fall out. This not only simplifies handling, but also makes it possible for the user to be able to move and handle the inner packaging with the packaged good by handling the protective packaging without touching the inner packaging itself. This can be of great advantage, in particular for foods.
Zur Erleichterung des Öffnens der Schutzverpackung kann erfindungsgemäß in Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, dass die Schutzverpackung eine sich längs einer geschlossenen Linie erstreckende Perforation oder eine sonstige Schwachstelle aufweist, die sich durch einfaches manuelles Betätigen öffnen lässt. Je nach Art des verwendeten Materials kann diese Schwachstelle auch so ausgebildet sein, dass die Schutzverpackung nur geschwächt ist, ohne durchgehende Öffnungen aufzuweisen.To facilitate the opening of the protective packaging may be provided according to the invention in a development that the protective packaging has a longitudinal line extending along a perforation or other vulnerability, which can be opened by simple manual actuation. Depending on the nature of the material used, this vulnerability can also be designed so that the protective packaging is only weakened without having through openings.
Als besonders sinnvoll hat es sich herausgestellt, dass die Schutzverpackung und gegebenenfalls auch die Innenverpackung eine langgestreckte Form aufweist, während die Perforation oder sonstige Schwachstelle quer zur Längsrichtung angeordnet ist. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Schutzverpackung an ihren beiden Enden jeweils eine Anfasslasche aufweist. Der Benutzer kann dann durch Ziehen an den Anfasslaschen die Schutzverpackung aufreißen. Nach dem Aufreißen der Schutzverpackung durch einfaches Ziehen kann er sofort erkennen, ob die Innenverpackung innerhalb des einen oder des anderen Teils der Schutzverpackung angeordnet ist.It has proven to be particularly expedient that the protective packaging and optionally also the inner packaging has an elongated shape, while the perforation or other weak point is arranged transversely to the longitudinal direction. In particular, it can be provided that the protective packaging has a grip tab at each of its two ends. The user can then tear the protective packaging by pulling on the grip tabs. After tearing open the protective packaging by simply pulling it, it can immediately recognize whether the inner packaging is located inside one or the other part of the protective packaging.
Die Schutzverpackung kann je nach den Umständen des Einzelfalles mehrere Innenverpackungen aufweisen. Für den in erster Linie angestrebten Zweck, nämlich einzelne Portionen in einer - -The protective packaging may have several inner packagings depending on the circumstances of the individual case. For the primary purpose, namely single portions in one - -
Schutzverpackung anzubieten, kann erfindungsgemäß in Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, dass in einer Schutzverpackung jeweils nur eine einzige Innenverpackung mit einer Portion des zu verpackenden Guts angeordnet ist. Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Innenverpackung und die Schutzverpackung angenähert die gleiche Größe aufweisen.To offer protective packaging, according to the invention may be provided in a further development that in a protective packaging each only a single inner packaging is arranged with a portion of the goods to be packaged. It can be provided that the inner packaging and the protective packaging have approximately the same size.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Innenverpackung und/oder die Schutzverpackung als Schlauchabschnitt aus einem Materialband hergestellt sind.In a further development of the invention can be provided that the inner packaging and / or the protective packaging are made as a tube section of a material strip.
Um bei der Herstellung aus einem zu einem Schlauch zusammengefügten Materialband einzelne Innenverpackungen und/oder Schutzverpackungen herzustellen, kann erfindungsgemäß in Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, dass der Schlauch an quer verlaufenden Trennstellen flachgedrückt und beide Seiten des Schlauchs miteinander verbunden werden, beispielsweise dadurch, dass die flachgedrückten Schlauchteile miteinander verklebt oder verschweißt werden.In order to produce individual inner packaging and / or protective packaging when producing from a material band assembled to form a tube, it can be provided according to the invention that the tube is flattened at transversely extending separation points and both sides of the tube are connected to one another, for example by the flattened tube parts glued or welded together.
Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass die flachgedrückten Abschnitte beidseits der Trennstellen gleichzeitig die Anfasslaschen bilden.In particular, it can be provided that the flattened portions on both sides of the separation points simultaneously form the grip tabs.
Zur Herstellung der Innenverpackung aus einem Materialband kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass eine Kante des Materialbandes nach außen umgefaltet wird, und dass die gegenüberliegende Kante mit der äußeren Lage des umgefalteten Bereichs verbunden wird, beispielsweise verklebt wird.To produce the inner packaging from a material strip, it can be provided according to the invention that one edge of the material strip is folded outward, and that the opposite edge is joined to the outer layer of the folded-over region, for example by gluing.
Es kann dabei vorgesehen sein, dass ein Randbereich des umgefalteten Randes des Materialbandes frei bleibt. Dieser freibleibende Rand des Materialbandes kann dazu dienen, eine Verbindung mit der Innenseite der Schutzverpackung herzustellen. - -It can be provided that an edge region of the folded edge of the material strip remains free. This non-reserving edge of the material band can serve to connect to the inside of the protective packaging. - -
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass zur Bildung der Schutzverpackung eine Kante des Materialbandes nach außen umgefaltet wird, und die gegenüberliegende Kante des Materialbandes mit der äußeren Lage des umgefalteten Randes verbunden wird.In a further development of the invention it can be provided that, to form the protective packaging, an edge of the material band is folded outward, and the opposite edge of the material band is connected to the outer layer of the folded-over edge.
Es wurde bereits erwähnt, dass ein Benutzer die Schutzverpackung einfach aufreißen können soll, und dass dann die das Lebensmittel enthaltende Innenverpackung in einem der beiden Teile der Schutzverpackung verbleibt. Um dies zu erreichen, kann erfindungsgemäß in Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, dass die Verbindung zwischen der Innenverpackung und der Schutzverpackung nur im Bereich eines Endes der Verpackung vorgesehen ist. An den restlichen Teilen besteht dann keine Verbindung zwischen der Schutzverpackung und der Innenverpackung.It has already been mentioned that a user should be able to easily tear open the protective packaging, and that then the inner packaging containing the food remains in one of the two parts of the protective packaging. To achieve this, it can be provided according to the invention in a development that the connection between the inner packaging and the protective packaging is provided only in the region of one end of the packaging. On the remaining parts then there is no connection between the protective packaging and the inner packaging.
Erfindungsgemäß kann in Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, dass das Materialband zur Herstellung der Innenverpackung aus einem anderen oder einem anders behandelten Material besteht als das Materialband zur Herstellung der Schutzverpackung. Beispielsweise kann für den Fall des eingangs erwähnten Teebeutels die Innenverpackung aus einem wasserdurchlässigen geschmacksneutralen Material bestehen, während die Schutzverpackung aus einem gasdichten Material besteht.According to the invention may be provided in a further development that the material strip for producing the inner packaging of another or a differently treated material than the material strip for producing the protective packaging. For example, in the case of the teabag mentioned above, the inner packaging may consist of a water-permeable taste-neutral material, while the protective packaging consists of a gas-tight material.
Die Erfindung schlägt ebenfalls ein Verfahren zum Verpacken von Lebensmitteln und/oder Genussmitteln vor, wie es im unabhängigen Verfahrensanspruch definiert ist.The invention also proposes a method for packaging food and / or luxury foods, as defined in the independent method claim.
Das Einbringen des zu verpackenden Guts in die Innenverpackung und das Einfügen der Innenverpackung in die Schutzverpackung kann erfindungsgemäß direkt nacheinander auf der gleichen Vorrichtung erfolgen.The introduction of the goods to be packaged in the inner packaging and the insertion of the inner packaging in the protective packaging can be carried out according to the invention directly successively on the same device.

Materialband 3 horizontal herangeführt und über eine Umlenkeinrichtung 4 senkrecht nach unten umgeleitet. Über eine nicht dargestellte Formschulter wird das Materialband 3 zu einem Schlauch gebildet. An der dem herangeführten Materialband 3 abgewandten Seite des Füllrohrs 1 ist ein Siegelbacken 5 angeordnet, der gegen das Materialband 3 angedrückt werden kann, siehe den Pfeil 6 in Figur 1 , und der eine Verbindung der beiden Ränder des Materialbandes herstellen kann. Dadurch wird das Band zu einem Schlauch geformt. Das Band wird mithilfe nicht dargestellter Einrichtungen nach unten abgezogen. In den Fülltrichter 2 wird jeweils ein Quantum des zu verpackenden Guts eingefüllt, das durch das Füllrohr 1 nach unten rutscht und sich in dem unteren Bereich des Schlauchs ansammelt. Der Schlauch wird dann von einer Trenneinrichtung 8 in der Weise behandelt, dass der Schlauch zusammen gedrückt und dann die beiden dadurch aufeinander liegenden Lagen des Schlauchs miteinander verbunden werden. Anschließend erfolgt durch ein Messer 9 der Trenneinrichtung ein Abtrennen der Innenverpackung. Die Trenneinrichtung 8 weist zwei Backen 10 auf, die zur gegenseitigen Berührung gegeneinander bewegt werden können.Material band 3 brought horizontally and redirected via a deflector 4 vertically downwards. About a form shoulder, not shown, the material strip 3 is formed into a tube. On the side of the stuffing tube 1 facing away from the material strip 3, a sealing jaw 5 is arranged, which can be pressed against the material strip 3, see the arrow 6 in FIG. 1, and which can establish a connection between the two edges of the material strip. This will form the band into a tube. The tape is pulled down using unillustrated facilities down. In the hopper 2, a quantum of the material to be packaged is filled in each case, which slides down through the filling tube 1 and accumulates in the lower region of the tube. The tube is then treated by a separator 8 in such a way that the tube is pressed together and then the two superimposed layers of the tube are connected together. Subsequently, a separation of the inner packaging is effected by a knife 9 of the separating device. The separator 8 has two jaws 10 which can be moved against each other for mutual contact.

Diese einzelnen Innenverpackungen 11 fallen dann in ein zweites Füllrohr 12, um das in ähnlicher Weise wie in der oberen Hälfte aus einem Materialband 13 ein Schlauch 14 gebildet wird. Die Ränder des Materialbandes 13 werden mithilfe eines Schweißbackens 15 miteinander verbunden. Auch dieser Schweißbacken 15 ist, siehe den Pfeil 16, gegen das Füllrohr 12 bewegbar und kann auf diese Weise die beiden Ränder des Materialbandes 13 miteinander verbinden.In this way, individual inner packaging is filled in the upper part of the representation and separated from the hose formed from the material band 3. These individual inner packaging 11 then fall into a second filling tube 12 around which a tube 14 is formed in a similar manner as in the upper half of a material strip 13. The edges of the material strip 13 are connected to each other by means of a welding jaw 15. Also, this welding jaws 15 is, see the arrow 16, movable against the filling tube 12 and can connect in this way the two edges of the material strip 13 together.
Auch hier wird der Schlauch 14 nach unten abgezogen und durch eine Trenneinrichtung 18 hindurchgeführt. Diese Trenneinrichtung 18 ist in - -Again, the tube 14 is pulled down and passed through a separator 18. This separator 18 is in - -
gleicher Weise aufgebaut wie die Trenneinrichtung 8 in der oberen Hälfte der Figur, enthält also ein Messer 19 und zwei Backen 20. Als Ergebnis ist am Ende der Vorrichtung eine Innenverpackung 11 vorhanden, die in einer Schutzverpackung 21 untergebracht ist. Während die Innenverpackung 11 aus dem Materialband 3 hergestellt wird, wird die Schutzverpackung 21 aus dem Materialband 13 gebildet.constructed as the separator 8 in the upper half of the figure, thus containing a knife 19 and two jaws 20. As a result, at the end of the device, an inner packaging 11 is provided, which is housed in a protective packaging 21. While the inner packaging 11 is made of the material strip 3, the protective packaging 21 is formed from the material strip 13.
Das Materialband 13 durchläuft, bevor es über eine Formschulter zu dem Schlauch 14 geformt wird, eine Station 22, die ebenfalls zwei aufeinander zu bewegbare Backen 23 aufweist. Hier wird allerdings das Material nicht zertrennt, sondern eingekerbt oder perforiert. Dies hängt von den Umständen des Einzelfalls ab. Diese Einkerbung oder Schwachstelle wird in regelmäßigen Abständen erzeugt, wobei darauf geachtet ist, dass die Einkerbung etwa in der Mitte der Längserstreckung einer Schutzverpackung zu liegen kommt.The material band 13, before it is formed via a forming shoulder to the tube 14, passes through a station 22, which also has two jaws 23 which are movable towards one another. Here, however, the material is not cut, but notched or perforated. This depends on the circumstances of the case. This indentation or weak point is generated at regular intervals, whereby it is ensured that the notch comes to lie approximately in the middle of the longitudinal extent of a protective packaging.
Figur 2 erklärt, wie aus einem flachen Materialband 3 ein Schlauch geformt werden kann. Um das Rohr 1 aus Figur 1 ist eine Formschulter 25 gebildet, zwischen deren Innenseite und der Außenseite des Rohrs 1 ein schmaler Spalt freigelassen ist. Das horizontal herangeführte Materialband 3 wird zwischen zwei Rollen 26 hindurchgeführt, die es an dieser Stelle antreiben, und um eine Umlenkrolle 27 schräg nach oben geführt. Dort wird das Materialband 3 durch den Schlitz zwischen der Formschulter 25 und dem Rohr 1 hindurchgeführt und dabei um die Außenseite des Rohrs 1 herum gelegt. Das Abziehen des Materialbandes nach unten kann mit Rollen, Walzen oder dergleichen geschehen, die hier nicht dargestellt sind. Zum Verbinden der dann übereinander gelegten Ränder des Materialbandes 3 dient der Siegelbacken 5, der in Figur 1 auch schon erwähnt wurde.FIG. 2 explains how a tube can be formed from a flat strip of material 3. Around the tube 1 of Figure 1, a forming shoulder 25 is formed, between the inside and the outside of the tube 1, a narrow gap is released. The horizontally brought up material strip 3 is passed between two rollers 26, which drive it at this point, and guided by a guide roller 27 obliquely upwards. There, the material strip 3 is passed through the slot between the forming shoulder 25 and the tube 1 and thereby placed around the outside of the tube 1 around. The removal of the material strip down can be done with rollers, rollers or the like, which are not shown here. For connecting the then superimposed edges of the material strip 3 is the sealing jaws 5, which has already been mentioned in Figure 1.
Das was in Figur 2 für das Materialband 3 dargestellt wurde, gilt natürlich auch für das Materialband 13 für die Schutzverpackung. - -That which was shown in Figure 2 for the material strip 3, of course, also applies to the material strip 13 for the protective packaging. - -
Figur 3 zeigt in einem Ausschnitt, wie das Material band 3 durch die in Figur 2 schematisch dargestellte Einrichtung angeordnet wird, um die Innenverpackung zu bilden. Ein Rand des Materialbandes 3 ist umgefaltet, so dass das Materialband 3 an dieser Stelle doppellagig angeordnet ist. Es wird also im Inneren des dadurch gebildeten Schlauchabschnitts eine Faltkante 28 gebildet. Der gegenüberliegende Rand 29 des Materialbandes 3 wird auf die Außenseite des doppellagigen Teils gelegt und dort mit der äußeren Lage verbunden. Zwischen dieser Kante 30 des Materialbandes 3 und der ehemals gegenüberliegenden Kante 31 des Materialbandes 3 bleibt ein Streifen 32 frei.Figure 3 shows in a section, as the material band 3 is arranged by the device shown schematically in Figure 2, to form the inner packaging. An edge of the material strip 3 is folded over, so that the material strip 3 is arranged double-layered at this point. Thus, a folding edge 28 is formed inside the tube section formed thereby. The opposite edge 29 of the material strip 3 is placed on the outside of the double-layered part and connected there to the outer layer. Between this edge 30 of the material strip 3 and the formerly opposite edge 31 of the material strip 3, a strip 32 remains free.
Dieser freibleibende Streifen 32 des Materialbandes 3 kann dazu dienen, eine Verbindung mit dem Materialband 13 der Schutzverpackung herzustellen.This remaining free strip 32 of the material strip 3 can serve to establish a connection with the material strip 13 of the protective packaging.
Figur 4 zeigt einen Querschnitt durch eine Innenverpackung 11. Hier ist nocheinmal die Art der Verbindung der beiden Ränder 30, 31 des Materialbandes 3 zu sehen, wie dies schon in Figur 3 erläutert wurde. Zwischen der äußeren Lage des umgefalteten Randes des Materialbandes 3 und der Innenseite des gegenüberliegenden Rands ist eine Klebstoffschicht 33 aufgebracht, die zur Verbindung der Ränder dient. Auf den freigebliebenen Streifen 32 des Materialbandes 3 wird nun, siehe die Pfeile A, ebenfalls Kleber aufgebracht. Dann wird das Ganze mit der Schutzverpackung verbunden, wobei jetzt die Innenseite der Schutzverpackung über eine Klebeschicht 34 mit den freigebliebenen Rand 32 der Innenverpackung verbunden ist. Auch hier wird die eine Randkante des Materialbandes 13 für die Schutzverpackung nach außen umgefaltet und dieser nach außen umgefaltete Teil mit der Innenseite des gegenüberliegenden Rands mithilfe einer Klebeschicht 35 verbunden. Diese Verbindung zwischen Innenverpackung und Schutzverpackung geschieht nur an einem Ende der Schutzverpackung. - -FIG. 4 shows a cross section through an inner packaging 11. Here again, the type of connection of the two edges 30, 31 of the material strip 3 can be seen, as has already been explained in FIG. Between the outer layer of the folded edge of the material strip 3 and the inside of the opposite edge, an adhesive layer 33 is applied, which serves to connect the edges. On the left strips 32 of the material strip 3 is now, see the arrows A, also applied adhesive. Then the whole thing is connected to the protective packaging, wherein now the inside of the protective packaging is connected via an adhesive layer 34 with the free edge 32 of the inner packaging. Again, the one edge of the material band 13 is folded for the protective packaging to the outside and connected to the outside folded-over part with the inside of the opposite edge using an adhesive layer 35. This connection between inner packaging and protective packaging occurs only at one end of the protective packaging. - -
Das Ergebnis einer einzelnen Verpackung ist in Figur 6 dargestellt. Die zunächst für den Benutzer nur als einheitliches Objekt zu sehende Schutzverpackung ist langgestreckt ausgebildet und weist an ihren beiden Enden jeweils eine Anfasslasche 36 auf. Die Anfasslaschen 36 sind durch die in Figur 1 dargestellte Trenneinrichtung 18 beidseits der eigentlichen Trennstelle gebildet. Ungefähr in der Mitte zwischen den beiden Enden weist die Schutzverpackung eine Art Perforation 37 auf, die durch die Einrichtung 22 in Figur 1 hergestellt wurde. Diese Perforation 37 braucht im Übrigen für den Benutzer nicht sichtbar zu sein. Ob es sich tatsächlich um eine Perforation oder einer Einkerbung handelt, hängt von den Umständen des Einzelfalles beziehungsweise von dem zu verpackenden Lebensmittel ab.The result of a single package is shown in FIG. The first protective package to be seen by the user only as a unitary object is elongated and has a grip tab 36 at each of its two ends. The grip tabs 36 are formed by the separator 18 shown in Figure 1 on both sides of the actual separation point. Approximately midway between the two ends, the protective package has a type of perforation 37 made by means 22 in FIG. Incidentally, this perforation 37 need not be visible to the user. Whether it is actually a perforation or a notch depends on the circumstances of the individual case or on the food to be packaged.
Wenn nun der Benutzer an den beiden Anfasslaschen 36 angreift und die Verpackung durch Ziehen in Richtung der Pfeile aufreißt, entsteht die in Figur 7 dargestellte Situation, wo die Innenverpackung 11 sichtbar wird. Da die Innenverpackung 11 mit der Schutzverpackung 21 im Bereich eines Endes verbunden ist, siehe Figur 5, bleibt die Innenverpackung 11 in dem in Figur 7 rechten Teil der Schutzverpackung 21 enthalten. Sie fällt also nicht heraus. Die Innenverpackung kann weiterhin durch Angreifen an der Anfasslasche 36 des Teils der Schutzverpackung, mit dem die Innenverpackung 11 verbunden ist, gehandhabt werden. Falls es sich bei dem Genussmittel beispielsweise um Tee handelt, kann der Benutzer die Innenverpackung in eine Tasse stecken, ohne die Innenverpackung 11 anfassen zu müssen. Er kann die Anfasslaschen 36 auch dazu verwenden, den Teebeutel nach der gewünschten Zeit wieder aus der Tasse herauszunehmen.If now the user attacks on the two grip tabs 36 and tears open the package by pulling in the direction of the arrows, the situation shown in Figure 7, where the inner packaging 11 is visible. Since the inner packaging 11 is connected to the protective packaging 21 in the region of one end, see FIG. 5, the inner packaging 11 remains contained in the right-hand part of the protective packaging 21 in FIG. So it does not fall out. The inner packaging may also be handled by engaging the grasping tab 36 of the portion of the protective packaging to which the inner packaging 11 is connected. For example, if the stimulant is tea, the user may put the inner wrapper in a cup without having to touch the inner wrapper 11. He can also use the grip tabs 36 to take the tea bag out of the cup again after the desired time.
Als Beispiel wird jetzt angenommen, es handele sich um eine Verpackung für Tee, also eine Art Teebeutel. Das zur Herstellung der Innenverpackung dienende Materialband ist doppellagig, wobei die - -As an example, it is now assumed that it is a packaging for tea, so a kind of tea bag. The serving for the production of the inner packaging material band is double-layered, the - -
spätere Innenseite der Innenverpackung aus Thermoplast und die spätere Außenseite aus Zellulosefasern besteht.later inside of the inner packaging made of thermoplastic and the later outer side consists of cellulose fibers.
Die Verwendung der Verbindung zwischen der Innenverpackung und der Schutzverpackung macht es möglich, ohne mechanische Klammern auszukommen.The use of the connection between the inner packaging and the protective packaging makes it possible to do without mechanical staples.
Anstelle der unter Bezugnahme auf die Figuren 4 und 5 erwähnten Klebeschicht kann natürlich auch eine direkte Verschweißung zwischen den thermoplastischen Teilen der entsprechenden Materialbänder 3 beziehungsweise 13 erfolgen, so dass ein zusätzlicher Kleber nicht mehr erforderlich ist.Of course, instead of the adhesive layer mentioned with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5, a direct welding between the thermoplastic parts of the corresponding material bands 3 and 13 may also take place, so that an additional adhesive is no longer required.
Zum Herstellen der Perforationslinie 37, siehe Figur 6, kann bei einem Teebeutel ein mechanisches Messer verwendet werden. Bei Kaffeeprodukten, die anders behandelt werden müssen, kann das Materialband der Schutzverpackung mit einem Lasersystem zur Bildung einer Schwächungslinie geschwächt werden, ohne die Barrierenschicht zu beeinträchtigen. For the production of the perforation line 37, see FIG. 6, a mechanical knife can be used in a tea bag. For coffee products that need to be treated differently, the protective wrap material band may be weakened with a laser system to form a line of weakness without affecting the barrier layer.
