Abstract

The confectionery packaging (1) has a wall (5) limited by a square-shaped retaining chamber, where an upper layer (5.2) of the wall is fixed opposite to a lower layer (5.1) of the wall and moved relative to the lower layer of the wall. The upper layer of the wall is connected with the lower layer of the wall over a pull linkage (7) as a perforation, removable adhesive joint (6) and formed as a greeting card, face card, congratulation card and a thank you card. Visible surfaces of the upper and lower layers of the wall are printed with an image motif.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Süßwarenverpackung, insbesondere eine Schokoladenverpackung für Schokoladentafeln und -täfelchen, aus einem bedruckbaren, faltbaren Verpackungsmaterial wie beispielsweise Zellstoff mit einem von Wandungen umgrenzten, vorzugsweise quaderförmigen Aufnahmeraum für die Süßware.The invention relates to a confectionery packaging, in particular a chocolate packaging for chocolate bars and tablets, from a printable, foldable packaging material such as pulp with a bounded by walls, preferably cuboid receiving space for the confectionery.

Aus der DE 20 2008 002740 U1 ist so eine Süßwarenverpackung bekannt.From the DE 20 2008 002740 U1 is known as a confectionery packaging.

Süßwarenverpackungen der vorgenannten Art sind allgemein bekannt und dienen insbesondere zur Aufnahme von Schokoladentäfelchen und Napolitains. Diese sind üblicherweise aus einem faltbaren Zellstoffmaterial wie Pappe hergestellt und haben eine quaderförmige geometrische Gestalt mit seitlichen Einsteckdeckeln, die zu öffnen und zu schließen sind, um die Schokoladentafel aus der Verpackung zu entnehmen und nach teilweisem Verzehr wieder in die Verpackung zurück zu überführen. An ihren Sichtflächen sind solche Süßwarenverpackungen mit den verschiedensten Motiven versehen, sei es mit Markendarstellungen des Schokoladenherstellers aber auch mit Saisonmotiven wie beispielsweise Oster- und Weihnachtsdarstellungen. Solche Süßwarenverpackungen stehen in optisch sehr eindrucksvollen Gestaltungen zur Verfügung.Confectionery packaging of the aforementioned type are well known and are used in particular for receiving chocolate bars and Napolitains. These are usually made of a foldable pulp material such as cardboard and have a cuboid geometric shape with side Einsteckdeckeln that are open and close to remove the chocolate bar from the package and after partial consumption back into the package back. On their viewing surfaces such confectionery packaging are provided with a variety of motives, be it with brand representations of the chocolate maker but also with seasonal motifs such as Easter and Christmas scenes. Such confectionery packaging is available in visually very impressive designs.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die optische Darstellung der Süßwarenverpackung beizubehalten, diese jedoch für den Benutzer noch besser nutzbar zu gestalten.The object of the invention is to maintain the visual appearance of the confectionery packaging, but to make it even better usable for the user.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe sieht die für die Süßwarenverpackung der eingangs genannten Art vor, dass zumindest eine den Aufnahmeraum begrenzenden Wandung doppellagig ausgebildet ist und eine obere Lage der Wandung gegenüber einer unteren Lage der Wandung relativ beweglich an dieser unteren Lage der Wandung festlegbar ist, wobei die obere Lage der Wandung über eine Abreissverbindung mit der unteren Lage der Wandung verbunden und als Gruß- und/oder Bildkarte ausgebildet ist.To solve this problem provides for the confectionery packaging of the type mentioned that at least one wall bounding the receiving space is double-layered and an upper layer of the wall relative to a lower layer of the wall is relatively movable fixed to this lower layer of the wall, said upper layer of the wall connected via a tear-off with the lower layer of the wall and is designed as greetings and / or image card.

Damit ist eine Süßwarenverpackung zur Verfügung gestellt, bei der aufgrund der doppellagigen Ausbildung zumindest einer der den Aufnahmeraum begrenzenden Wandung die obere Lage von der unteren Lage aufklappbar und mithin relativ beweglich ausgebildet ist und beispielsweise von einem Nutzer als Grußkarte beschriftet werden kann mit einem persönlichen Gruß an eine beispielsweise zu beschenkende Person. Vorzugsweise ist die obere Lage über lösbare Klebestellen an der unteren Lage fixiert, so dass die obere Lage von der unteren Lage gelöst werden kann für eine nachfolgende Beschriftung und dann zurückzuklappen ist und mit Hilfe der Klebepunkte wieder an der unteren Lage der Wandung zu fixiert werden kann. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann auch eine die obere Lage umschließende Banderole vorgesehen sein. Die so mit dem persönlichen Gruß ausgestattete Süßwarenverpackung kann nun an eine zu beschenkende Person übergeben werden. Die so beschenkte Person kann dann die Gruß- bzw. Bildkarte wiederum aufklappen und von der unteren Lage über die Abreißverbindung lösen und wie eine separate Gruß-, Glückwünsch-, Danksagungskarte und dgl. nutzen, und zwar unabhängig von der Süßwarenverpackung bzw. der darin verpackten Süßware.For a confectionery packaging is provided in which due to the double-layered training at least one of the receiving space bounding wall, the upper layer of the lower layer hinged and thus relatively movable and can be labeled as a greeting card example by a user with a personal greeting a person to be gifted, for example. Preferably, the upper layer is fixed on the lower layer via detachable splices, so that the upper layer can be detached from the lower layer for subsequent inscription and then folded back and can be fixed to the lower layer of the wall again with the aid of the adhesive dots , Alternatively or additionally, a band surrounding the upper layer can also be used be provided. The confectionery packaging so equipped with the personal greeting can now be handed over to a person to be gifted. The gifted person can then unfold the greeting or picture card in turn and release from the lower layer on the tear-off and how to use a separate greeting, congratulatory, Thanksgiving card and the like, regardless of the confectionery packaging or packaged therein confectionery.

Further advantageous embodiments are contained in further subclaims, the following description and the drawing. In the drawing shows:
Fig. 1
an embodiment of a cuboid confectionery packaging in the closed state of the upper layer of the wall in a perspective view,
Fig. 2
the embodiment according to Fig. 1 with an upper layer of the wall detached from the lower layer, and
Fig. 3
the embodiment of the Fig. 1 and 2 in the unfolded state of the upper layer of the wall.

Die Süßwarenverpackung ist in den Fig. 1 bis 3 allgemein mit 1 beziffert. Diese Süßwarenverpackung hat eine untere Wandung 2 sowie Seitenwandungen 3 und 4 und eine allgemein mit 5 bezifferte obere Wandung, die, wie die Fig. 2 und 3 näher zeigen, doppellagig ausgebildet ist mit einer unteren Lage 5.1 der Wandung und einer oberen Lage 5.2 der Wandung 5. Die obere Lage 5.2 der Wandung 5 ist mit der unteren Lage 5.1 der Wandung 5 über Klebestellen 6 zu verbinden und darüber hinaus über eine Perforation als Abreißverbindung 7. Die Abreißverbindung 7 kann beispielsweise auch alternativ als kerbenförmige Verbindung ausgebildet sein, die von einem Hilfsmittel wie z.B. einem Schneidmittel durchdrungen werden kann.The confectionery packaging is in the Fig. 1 to 3 generally numbered 1. This confectionery packaging has a bottom wall 2 and side walls 3 and 4 and a generally numbered with 5 upper wall, which, like the Fig. 2 and 3 show closer, double-layered is formed with a lower layer 5.1 of the wall and an upper layer 5.2 of the wall 5. The upper layer 5.2 of the wall 5 is to connect to the lower layer 5.1 of the wall 5 via splices 6 and beyond via a perforation as a tear-off 7. The tear-off 7, for example, may alternatively be formed as a notched connection, which can be penetrated by an aid such as a cutting means.

Die jeweils äußeren Sichtflächen der oberen Lage 5.2 und der unteren Lage 5.1 sind jeweils bedruckt, so dass nach Entfernen der oberen Lage 5.2 als Gruß- oder Bildkarte der Süßwarenverpackungscharakter erhalten bleibt, und die obere Lage 5.2 als Gruß- und/oder Bildkarte z.B. auf ihrer Rückseite 8 (Fig. 3) z.B. mit einem persönlichen Gruß beschriftet werden kann.The respective outer visible surfaces of the upper layer 5.2 and the lower layer 5.1 are printed in each case, so that after removal of the upper layer 5.2 as greetings or image card of confectionery packaging character is maintained, and the upper layer 5.2 as greetings and / or picture card eg on their Back side 8 ( Fig. 3 ) can be labeled, for example, with a personal greeting.
