Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cardboard box, which is convertible into a tray.
  • a container receiving the food shall be designed such that on one hand it is suitable for handling and storing the food prior to delivering the same to the consumer, while simultaneously the container should give the consumer the opportunity to consume the food in a simple and comfortable manner.
  • EP 2 364 924 A1 discloses a plastic container which is particularly suitable for catering purposes onboard of aircrafts.
  • the container includes a lower part and an upper part wherein the lower part is connected to the upper part by means of a hinch and wherein the upper part is pivotable relative to the lower part between a closed position, in which the upper part is hinched onto the lower part, and an open position.
  • the container disclosed in the document includes a stop for limiting a pivoting of the upper part relative to the lower part such that in the open position of the container the bottom side of the lower part is aligned with the upper side of the upper part.
  • a tray position the box presents increased comfort for the consumer when consuming food by presenting a continuous tray surface, which in particular is substantially flat.
  • food received in the box may be handled, dispensed to a consumer and taken away by the consumer in a comfortable manner.
  • the consumer converts the box from the box position into the tray position, thereby presenting a continuous tray surface on which the food may be consumed, for example using cuttlery. It is particularly possible to include disposable cuttlery in the box.
  • the invention provides a multi-purpose box for handling and consuming food, said box being easy to handle.
  • the box which is the subject matter of the invention is manufactured from cardboard and therefore may be manufactured at relatively low cost.
  • FIG. 1 to 7 For explaining the invention in detail, the following references are made from FIG. 1 to 7 .
  • FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a integral cardboard blank 2 for manufacturing a box 4 (see FIG. 2 ) according to the invention.
  • the enclosure of the invention also includes geometrical relationships and technical conditions as well as the size ratio of components of the box 4 according to the invention, regardless of whether they are mentioned in the following description.
  • the cardboard blank 2 includes a lid part 6 which via a folding line 8 a rear wall part 10 is connected. To the end of the rear wall part 10 facing away from the lid part 6 a bottom part 10 is connected via a further folding line 12.
  • the first sidewall parts 18, 18' are hinched to the sides of the lid part 6 via folding lines 16, 16'.
  • a second sidewall part 22, 22' are hinched to the bottom part 14 via folding lines 20, 20'.
  • a third sidewall part 16 is hinched to the end of the lid part 6 facing away from the rear wall part 10.
  • a fourth sidewall part 30 is hinched to the end of the bottom part 14 facing away from the rear wall part 10.
  • a glue tab is provided respectively.
  • a single glue tab exemplarily is referenced by reference no. 32.
  • the sidewall parts 18, 18', 26, 22, 22' and 30 are aligned substantially perpendicularly relative to the lid part 6 and the bottom part 14 respectively and are fixed in this position by means of glueing the glue tabs 32.
  • the cardboard blank 2 is symmetrical along a symmetry axis which is symbolized in FIG. 1 by a dot-dashed line 34.
  • a dot-dashed line 34 symbolized in FIG. 1 by a dot-dashed line 34.
  • the first sidewall part associated with the lid part 6 is connected with the second sidewall part 22 associated with the bottom part 14 by means of a flaplike hinge element 36 which will be explained below in greater detail.
  • the hinge element 36 is embodied and provided with folding lines such that
  • first outer flap part 42 and the second outer flap part 46 have a triangular shape respectively, wherein the first outer flap part 24 is slightly smaller than the second outer flap part 46.
  • the triangle limiting the respective outer flap part 42, 46 is an acute triangle.
  • the longer side of the triangle constitute on hand hand the third flap folding line 48 at the first sidewall part 18 and the first flap folding line 40 at the center flap part 38, wherein the shorter side of the triangle defines the free rim of the first outer flap part 42.
  • the second outer flap part 46 is structured correspondingly.
  • the flap folding lines 40, 48 and 44, 50 respectively, associated with an outer flap part 42, 46 respectively, define an acute angle.
  • the center flap part 38 is separated from the rear wall part 10 by a triangular-shape cutout 52 (opening).
  • a third flap folding line 48 defines an acute angle with the folding line 48 between the lid part 6 and the rear wall part 10 and is inclined towards the center flap part. The same holds for the fourth flap folding line 50 relative to the folding line 12 between the rear wall part 10 and the bottom part 14.
  • the center flap part 38 is slightly asymmetrical along a symmetry axis 54 which is parallel to the folding lines 8, 12.
  • the center flap part 38 is almost symmetrical to the symmetry axis 54, however, has a distinct asymmetry which in connection with the slightly different size of the outer flap parts 42, 46 provides that the upper part of the box 4 overlaps the lower part, when the box 4 is converted from the tray position into the box position.
  • FIG. 2 shows the box 4 in the box position
  • FIG. 3 shows the box 4 in the tray position
  • fixing means for detachably fixing the box 4 in the box position.
  • a clamping tab 56 is located at the third sidewall part 26, said clamping tab 56 engaging a clamping cutout 58, provided at the fourth sidewall part.
  • clamping tabs 60, 60' are provided at the fourth sidewall part, said clamping tabs 60, 60' engaging a clamping cutout 62, 62' provided in the third sidewall part 26 in the box position of the box 4 (see FIG. 2 ).
  • the hinge element 36 in the tray position shown in FIG. 3 , the hinge element 36 is in an elongated position connecting the associated first and second sidewall parts 18, 22 at a distance.
  • the lid part 6, the rear wall part 10 and the bottom part 14 are located in the same plain and constitute a continuous tray surface, on which food received in the box 4 may be cosumed. Due to the continuous tray surface, it is particularly possible to consume food contained in the box 4 using cuttlery.
  • the box 4 with food contained therein is dispensed to a consumer in the box position (see FIG. 2 ).
  • the consumer opens the box 4 and brings the same into the tray position shown in FIG. 3 .
  • the operation of the hinge element 36 is explained for the different operations in which the box 4 is converted from the tray position into the box position.
  • FIG. 4 shows the box 4 in an intermediate position between the box position (closed position) and the tray position (open position).
  • FIG. 5-7 show an illustration model of the hinge element 36.
  • the upper part 64 of the box 4 constituted by the lid part 6 and the sidewall parts 18, 18' and 26 is hinged onto the lower part 66, constituted by the bottom part 14 and the sidewall part 22, 22' and 30 (see FIG. 3 and FIG. 2 ).
  • the hinge element 36 folds along the flap folding lines 40, 44, 48, 50, as can be seen from FIG. 4 .
  • FIG. 5 shows the hinge element 36 in an intermediate position approximately corresponding to FIG. 4 , in which the hinge element 36 begins to fold.
  • FIG. 7 shows the hinge element 36 in the end position of the folding operation, which corresponds to the closed position (box position) of the box 4, as shown in FIG. 2 .
  • the center flap part 38 abuts against the rear wall part 10 or is positioned with a slight distance towards the same.
  • the outer flap part 42, 46 abut against the center flap part 38 on the side facing away from the rear wall part 10 or are positioned with a slight distance to the same.
  • the invention provides a box 4, which is convertible into a tray which in a tray position gives the consumer a high comfort for consuming food by presenting a continuous tray surface, on which food may be consumed for example using cutlery.
