Definitions

  • the invention relates to rectangular packages of thin cardboard or similar packaging material according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a cigarette pack which is referred to as "semi-rigid".
  • a cigarette block that is a group of cigarettes surrounded by an inner blank of paper or tinfoil, sits in an open-top, cup-shaped outer pack of thin cardboard.
  • the blank for the outer pack is provided with embossed fold lines for the formation of round edges or bevelled edges. Folding tabs for a bottom wall are defined by means of punched out as separate individual tabs ( EP 0 633 202 A2 ).
  • the invention relates to measures for an improved design of such or other packages, in particular with the aim of a high-performance, cost-effective production.

  • Blanks for the outer package of thin cardboard or other foldable packaging material increased dimensional stability can be produced without waste, so without the occurrence of stampings or pieces of waste, preferably by separating from a continuous web.
  • the special feature is the formation of transverse walls, ie in particular of the bottom wall and / or end wall.
  • a special design of folding flaps is provided, which ensures a machine controllable folding.
  • it is ensured, in particular in outer packages with round edges and / or beveled edges by special cutting and punching cuts, that cut pieces in the region of the transition of the transverse wall into the round edge or into the bevelled edge in the folding process reach a hidden, inner position.
  • line-shaped punches are provided in the area of the folding tabs of the transverse wall, rounded at round edges and straight edges at bevels, which limit a preferably triangular material gusset, which remains due to residual compounds during folding and then on the blank.
  • Another special feature is the formation of the folding tabs for the transverse wall, such that inside, defined by oblique folding lines folding tabs are substantially completely covered by an outer cover flap.
  • the outer package may advantageously be cup-shaped, ie with an upper open side.
  • the outer pack may be formed as a folding box with a hinged lid defined by the one-piece blank whose end wall is preferably formed according to the design and folding specifications of the bottom wall.
  • the package according to Fig. 1 contains a parallelepipedic package contents, namely a cigarette block 10, so a group formed of cigarettes (or other suitable objects), which is completely surrounded by an inner blank 11 of paper, tin foil or foil.
  • the cigarette block 10 is disposed in the outer pack 12, which is formed as a cup. The dimensions are selected such that an upper end region or an end face of the cigarette block 10 is visible on the open side of the outer package 12. About the free (front) side extends a band 13th
  • the outer package 12 has an increased rigidity or dimensional stability, consists in particular of thin cardboard.
  • the strength is preferably below that of the box for hard packs (200g / m 2 to 250g / m 2 ), but above the dimensional stability of the paper for soft cup packs (about 100g / m 2 ).
  • An advantage is a cardboard with 140g / m 2 to 150g / m 2 for the outer pack. As a result, more complex folds can be made possible.

  • the edge strip 28 is separated from the remainder of the blank by a fold line 29 (imagined or defined by embossing).
  • the width of the edge strip 28 corresponds approximately to the width of the bottom wall 20. In the present case, however, the edge strip 28 is formed with a slightly smaller width than the bottom wall 20.
  • the edge strip 28 includes all folding flaps of the bottom wall 20th
  • a preferred design feature of the package is the formation of upright packaging edges for delimiting the package walls 14, 15, 16, 17 against each other.

  • the adjacent folding flaps, namely side flaps 21 and part flaps 23 have adjacent to the arcuate cuts 35, 36 round punchings 37, 38.
