  • the disposable packaging used for delivering milk or other liquid or pasty foods are for cost reasons and from an environmental point of view, usually made so thin-walled that processing of the food therein using electrical equipment is not possible without the risk of destroying the packaging and causing the food to escape from the package.
  • this object is achieved by a development of the known disposable packaging, which is characterized essentially in that the packaging has a permanently installed therein treatment device, esp. In the form of a frother, for carrying out a treatment process, esp. Foaming process, in the package.
  • the invention is based on the finding that the problems in the preparation of liquid or pasty foods in disposable packaging, which are prominent in the state of the art, are due primarily to the use of conventional processing equipment in the form of mixers or the like, which are not just one Damage to the packaging walls may cause, but also bring additional cleaning of these devices.
  • the treatment of the products received in the packaging is carried out with a conditioning device permanently installed on the packaging, which can be carried out particularly easily and without appreciable additional material expenditure, depending on the desired preparation.
  • a conditioning device permanently installed on the packaging, which can be carried out particularly easily and without appreciable additional material expenditure, depending on the desired preparation.
  • no additional cleaning process for the treatment device is required. Therefore, despite the additional expense associated with the provision of the treatment device, an overall more favorable and environmentally friendly packaging in an overall balance can be provided.

  • the processing device is realized in the form of a frother, such an arrangement of permanently installed frothing is expediently chosen, in which the liquid is passed by shaking the packaging of the frother and absorbs bubbles to foam.
  • the frother can be realized, for example, in the form of a packaging insert forming a spokes in the packaging. It expediently has at least one opening provided for passing the liquid or pasty foodstuff in the packaging.
  • the frother is designed in the form of a perforated and fixed to the package film or plate-shaped board, which preferably extends approximately parallel to the upper boundary surface of the package.
  • packages according to the invention in the form of so-called Tetra Paks is also intended, it has proven particularly expedient with regard to the desired preparation, in particular foaming, of dairy products accommodated in the package if the package is one of a kind Upper edge toward a bottom thereof extending, esp. Cup-shaped container which is closed at the top with a cover.
  • the container may, starting from the upper edge in the direction of the bottom at least partially tapered frusto-conical shape. This favors the removal of products from the container.
  • a particularly reliable attachment of the cover to the upper edge of the container is made possible when the upper edge of the container has a radially outwardly extending sealing flange whose upper boundary surface is arranged approximately in a plane extending approximately perpendicular to the container axis.
  • the cover as in conventional yoghurt or cream cups, in the form of a sealing foil, such as aluminum, be realized, which is at least indirectly sealed to the upper edge of the container.
  • the processing device esp. The frother, expediently disposed within the packaging between the cover and the container bottom.
  • the processing device in particular the frother, comes in contact with the food.
  • the processing device in the closed space from the cover no additional expenses to ensure the required cleanliness of the treatment device are required.
  • it is usually only necessary to remove the cover or sealing film from the edge of the container and then to carry out the desired conditioning operation. It is no longer necessary to fix the processing device in or on the container, because the processing device is already firmly installed on the container.
  • the frother can have a substantially flat plate-like or foil-like frothing area interspersed with recesses.
  • the permeated by recesses esp. Perforated AufCum Saint a circulating the implementation of a drinking straw through the AufMum Bachelor enabling area annularly circulate.
  • the removal of the processed product from the container with the help of the drinking straw is facilitated if the surface of the lead-through area has at least 10% of the area of the foaming area. In this case, a satisfactory foaming can still be ensured if the area of the lead-through area is less than 50% of the area of the foaming area.
  • the AufMum Society can be performed approximately circular, wherein an inner edge of the annulus may have a diameter of more than 10%, esp. More than 20%, of the outer edge of the annulus.
  • the perforated frothing area may have at the outer edge a diameter which is more than twice the diameter at its inner edge so as to ensure a satisfactory foaming effect.
  • the perforations in the foaming area have a size of at least 2 mm 2 , preferably 5 mm 2 or more. The area of the perforation should not exceed 1 cm 2 .
  • Such packaging can be produced particularly favorably by first producing an intermediate product consisting of cover and frother and the intermediate product is then mounted on the upper edge of the container so that the frother is disposed between the cover and container bottom within the container.
  • the frother forms a stabilization of the cover, which is useful with a view to avoiding damage to the packaging during a transport process or delivery process.
  • the sealing film is sealed onto the upper edge of the container with the interposition of the foaming area of the foamer, the adhesion of the foaming area at the upper edge of the container being stronger than the adhesion of the sealing foil to the foaming area, so that the sealing foil or the cover can be removed from the container rim without thereby removing the foaming area from the container at the same time.
  • the packaging according to the invention has a detachable and essentially liquid-tight upper bounding surface of the frother facing away from the container bottom, forming a frothing volume Has container rim attachable AufDumhaube.
  • the AufGumhaube can also be placed on the upper edge of the packaging during delivery of the milk products in packaging according to the invention, in particular, be clipped.
  • the foaming hood is first removed from the upper edge of the container, then the cover or sealing foil removed from the upper edge of the container, then the foaming hood is placed back on the upper edge of the container and the desired conditioning operation or foaming process, for example by shaking the container with the milk product received therein executed.
  • the foaming hood of a package according to the invention one possibly by a predetermined breaking point formed and preferably covered by a sealing foil insertion area for a possibly be passed through the lead-through area of the frother straw, so that the processed food can be removed without removing the AufMum ceremoniess from the container.
  • the container may have a drinking straw integrated into the container and / or a drinking straw accommodated in the foaming volume between the foaming hood and the cover.
  • a frother for the production of such a packaging is essentially characterized in that it has a plate-like or foil-like, perforated and with a mounting surface on the upper edge of the container sealingly definable AufMumplatine on her the mounting surface Covering surface is covered by a cover, esp. Sealing film, which can be sealed on the AufMumplatine so as to close the container.
  • the foaming board and the sealing film can be coextruded in a common operation.
