  • the partially opened outer packaging can be stacked on shelves to save space, so that a lateral access to the goods in the outer packaging is desirable.
  • the partial opening of outer packaging takes place even at high throughput, such as in the goods picking, often by hand, which on the one hand exposes the user to a risk of injury and on the other hand can lead to damage of the product in the outer packaging.

  • FIGS. 8 to 13 show exemplary embodiments of knives 120 with which such a non-drawing perforation cut can be made.
  • a first embodiment of a knife 120 is a circular blade in FIG. 8 which has on its outer circumference a ring gear 130 with radially extending teeth 122 which are separated by dental valleys 124.
  • the teeth 122 may be pointed or have cutting edges at their faces that are tangent to the circumference or along the circumference of the circular blade.
  • the tooth roots 124 are also formed as cutting, so that the blade 120 has two cutting depths.
  • the outer package 90 is formed of corrugated board having an outer skin 94 and an inner skin 96 between which a corrugated intermediate layer 96 of a material, e.g. Paper, is arranged. If the circular blade is placed on the surface of the wall 92 of the outer package 90, this pierces the outer skin 94 and the intermediate layer 96 with the teeth 122 and punctures the inner skin 98. The respective tooth base 124 cuts through the outer skin 94.
  • a material e.g. Paper
  • a current cutting depth of the teeth 122 can be adjusted via a spacer unit 140, which slides with a foot 142 over the wall 92 of the outer package 90, while an immersion depth of the circular blade in which a height adjustment 144 of the spacer unit 140, for example in the form of a slot, is adjustable.
  • the outer skin 94 is cut through and a near-surface region of the intermediate layer 96 is cut, while the inner skin is only punctured and the cut is easy to open. If the cutting path is completely closed or at least almost closed, the area surrounded by the cutting path can easily be pierced and taken out of the wall 92.
  • FIG. 9 shows a further embodiment of a blade 120 with adjustable depth of cut for a perforation cut, which consists of two partial blades 152, 154, which in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 are shown.
  • the depth of cut is changed by turning both part-cutters 152, 154 against each other by one tooth width.
  • the first dividing knife 152 has cutting edges at the free ends of the teeth 122, while the tooth bottoms 124 have no cutting edges.
  • the second knife 154 has cutting edges on both the free ends of the teeth 122 and the teeth roots 124.
  • the teeth 122 of both part knives 152, 154 are chamfered in the radial direction, so that when they are placed back to back, they yield a knife 120 with a defined sharp edge 156.
  • the first part diameter 152 has a larger circumference than the second part diameter 154.
  • the two partial blades 152, 154 are rotated relative to one another such that the teeth 122 of the second partial blade 154 are arranged between the teeth 122 of the first partial blade 152.
  • the two dividing knives are further rotated by a tooth width, so that the tooth valleys 124 of the second dividing knife 154 are arranged between the teeth 122 of the first dividing knife 152.
  • FIGS. 12 and 13 This is in the FIGS. 12 and 13 shown. It shows FIG. 12 the attachment of a perforation in a thin corrugated cardboard of an outer packaging with the perforator FIG. 9 with low cutting depth, and FIG. 13 attaching a perforation in a thick corrugated cardboard with the knife 120 from FIG. 9 with great depth of cut.
  • the knife 120 may additionally be provided with a spacing unit 140 as in FIG FIG. 8 (not shown) interact.
  • FIG. 12 It can be seen that the blade at a setting with radially small distance between the cutting edges of the dividing blades 152, 154, the thin corrugated cardboard of the outer packaging 90 on the outer skin 94 with the teeth 122 of the first part diameter 152 and the teeth 122 of the second part diameter 154th completely cuts through and the intermediate layer 96 largely cuts, while the inner skin 98 is pierced only by the teeth 122 of the first part diameter 152.
  • FIG. 13 It can be seen how a thick corrugated cardboard with the knife 120 with the setting with radially large distance between the cutting edges of the dividing blades 152, 154 is perforated.
  • the corrugated cardboard has two intermediate layers 96, 97, which are separated by an intermediate skin 95.
  • the outer skin 94 and the first intermediate layer 96 and the intermediate skin 95 are completely severed by the teeth 122 of the first indexer 152 and the tooth valleys 124 of the second indexer 154, while the inner skin 98 and the second intermediate layer 97 only from the teeth 122 of the first indexer 152th be pierced.
