Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verpackungssystem zum gemeinsamen Verpacken mehrerer Objekte.The invention relates to a packaging system for the common packaging of multiple objects.
An der Schnittstelle zwischen Großhandel und Einzelhandel treffen unterschiedliche Anforderungen an verwendete Verpackungssysteme aufeinander. Einerseits ist es im Großhandel erwünscht, große Mengen an Waren gleichzeitig und möglichst unkompliziert bewegen zu können. Dafür werden die Waren häufig gemeinsam in relativ großen Systemen, wie beispielsweise in großen Kisten, zusammengepackt. Andererseits ist es im Einzelhandel wünschenswert, Waren auch in kleineren Mengen gut handhaben zu können, um beispielsweise Regale schnell auffüllen zu können. Zudem ist ein ausreichender Schutz der Waren und derer Verpackung vor äußeren Einflüssen, wie beispielsweise Nässe oder Abriebeffekten erwünscht, um die Waren schließlich dem Kunden unter einem guten äußeren Eindruck und schadensfrei präsentieren zu können.At the interface between wholesalers and retailers, different requirements apply to the packaging systems used. On the one hand, in wholesale it is desirable to be able to move large quantities of goods at the same time and as uncomplicated as possible. For this, the goods are often packed together in relatively large systems, such as in large boxes. On the other hand, it is desirable in retail to be able to handle goods well in smaller quantities, for example, to fill shelves quickly. In addition, a sufficient protection of the goods and their packaging against external influences, such as moisture or abrasion effects is desired in order to present the goods finally the customer under a good external impression and damage.
Bisher gibt es viele Verpackungssysteme, welche den Anforderungen des Großhandels gerecht werden. Darunter fallen unter anderem unterschiedlichste Kistenformate, Paletten-Systeme oder gar Container, welche einen einfachen Transport großer Mengen einzeln verpackter Waren ermöglichen.So far, there are many packaging systems that meet the requirements of the wholesale trade. These include, inter alia, a wide variety of box formats, pallet systems or even containers, which enable easy transport of large quantities of individually packaged goods.
Ein Verpackungssystem mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs von Anspruch 1 ist aus der
Um nun auch den Anforderungen des Einzelhandels gerecht zu werden, ist es wünschenswert ein Verpackungssystem bereitzustellen, welches eine einfache Handhabung mehrerer Waren, welche zum Beispiel in ein gemeinsames Regal eingeräumt werden sollen, ermöglicht und nebenbei einen Schutz der einzelnen Waren, beziehungsweise deren Verpackungen, gegenüber äußeren Einflüssen gewährleistet.In order to meet the requirements of the retail trade, it is desirable to provide a packaging system, which allows easy handling of several goods, which are to be given, for example, in a common shelf, and incidentally, a protection of the individual Goods, or their packaging, guaranteed against external influences.
Damit ist es eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Verpackungssystem bereitzustellen, welches sowohl eine einfache Handhabung mehrerer zusammengehöriger Waren ermöglicht als auch einen ausreichenden Schutz der Waren und ihrer Verpackung gewährleistet.Thus, it is an object of the present invention to provide a packaging system which allows both easy handling of several related goods as well as ensuring adequate protection of the goods and their packaging.
Die vorstehende Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung wird durch die Kombination der Merkmale des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen finden sich in den abhängigen Ansprüchen.The above object of the present invention is achieved by the combination of the features of
Im Folgenden wird die Gesamtheit aus einer Wareneinheit und seiner für den Verkauf vorgesehenen Verpackung als "Objekt" bezeichnet. Dabei kann der Begriff Wareneinheit entweder eine einzelne Ware (wie beispielsweise einen Schraubenzieher) bezeichnen, oder auch eine Summe aus Einzelwaren (wie beispielsweise eine bestimmte Menge Schrauben) bezeichnen, welche gemeinsam in der für den Verkauf vorgesehenen Verpackung untergebracht sind und in dieser Form gemeinsam verkauft werden sollen. Anschaulich gesprochen bedeutet dies, dass das, was im Folgenden als "Objekt" bezeichnet wird, dem entspricht, was ein Kunde schließlich im Regal eines Geschäfts vorfindet.In the following, the entirety of a unit of goods and its packaging intended for sale is referred to as an "object". In this case, the term commodity unit can either denote a single product (such as a screwdriver), or also a sum of individual goods (such as a certain amount of screws), which are housed together in the intended packaging for sale and sold together in this form should be. In a nutshell, this means that what is referred to below as an "object" corresponds to what a customer eventually finds on the shelf of a store.
Ausführungsformen eines Verpackungssystems umfassen einen Flachbeutel, welcher eine Außenwand aufweist. Diese Außenwand bildet eine Frontfläche und eine Rückfläche des Flachbeutels. Dabei ist der Flachbeutel an einer Unterkante, an einer Oberkante und an beiden seitlichen Kanten verschlossen. An der Frontfläche des Flachbeutels ist darüber hinaus eine Öffnung ausgebildet, die von einer Lasche abgedeckt sein kann. Neben dem Flachbeutel umfasst das Verpackungssystem auch eine Halterung. Diese Halterung verbindet Objekte, die im Inneren des Flachbeutels verstaut sind, miteinander, und weist einen Griffbereich auf, der an der Vorderseite des Flachbeutels aus der Öffnung des Flachbeutels herausragt und so direkt gegriffen werden kann. Dabei ist die Halterung so in dem Flachbeutel anordenbar oder angeordnet, dass der Griffbereich an einer vorhandenen Lasche vorbei aus der an der Vorderseite des Flachbeutels vorgesehenen Öffnung herausragt. Dabei ist eine oder sind beide seitlichen Kanten des Flachbeutels so geschwächt, dass eine Kraft, die eine Komponente senkrecht zur Frontfläche des Flachbeutels aufweist und auf die Halterung wirkt, um ein Herausziehen der über die Halterung verbundenen Objekte aus dem Flachbeutel zu bewirken, ein Aufreißen des Flachbeutels entlang der wenigstens einen geschwächten seitlichen Kante bewirkt.Embodiments of a packaging system include a flat bag having an outer wall. This outer wall forms a front surface and a rear surface of the flat bag. The flat bag is closed at a lower edge, at an upper edge and at both lateral edges. On the front surface of the flat bag, an opening is also formed, which may be covered by a tab. In addition to the flat bag, the packaging system also includes a holder. This holder connects objects, which are stowed inside the flat bag, with each other, and has a handle portion which protrudes from the opening of the flat bag at the front of the flat bag and can be grasped directly. In this case, the holder can be arranged or arranged in the flat bag such that the gripping area projects past an existing flap from the opening provided on the front side of the flat bag. In this case, one or both lateral edges of the flat bag are so weakened that a force which has a component perpendicular to the front surface of the flat bag and acts on the holder to cause withdrawal of the connected via the holder objects from the flat bag, a rupture of the Flat bag along the at least one weakened lateral edge causes.
In dieser Konfiguration sorgt das Verpackungssystem einerseits durch den Flachbeutel für einen ausreichenden Schutz der Objekte im Inneren des Flachbeutels gegen äußere Einflüsse wie Nässe oder Reibung und erlaubt gleichzeitig eine leichte gemeinsame Handhabung der von dem Flachbeutel aufgenommenen Objekte, da mehrere Objekte in einer vorbestimmten Zusammenstellung gemeinsam transportiert und gelagert werden können. Andererseits wird durch die Halterung, welche die Objekte im Inneren des Flachbeutels miteinander verbindet, ein leichtes gemeinsames Herausnehmen aller Objekte aus dem Inneren des Flachbeutels ermöglicht, was die gemeinsame Handhabung der Objekte bezogen auf eine Befreiung der Objekte aus dem Flachbeutel erleichtert. Auch kann so eine vorteilhafte Orientierung der Objekte bei ihrer Entnahme sichergestellt werden. Durch die wenigstens eine geschwächte seitliche Kante des Flachbeutels, die während des Herausnehmens der Objekte aus dem Flachbeutel aufreißen, wird die Befreiung der über die Halterung miteinander verbundenen Objekte aus dem schützenden Flachbeutel wesentlich erleichtert, da die Objekte den Flachbeutel so nicht über die Öffnung verlassen müssen. In der Folge kann die Öffnung möglichst klein ausgebildet sein, um das Eindringen von Schmutz und dergleichen sowie ein unbeabsichtigtes Entweichen der Objekte aus dem Flachbeutel zu verhindern.In this configuration, the packaging system on the one hand by the flat bag for a sufficient protection of the objects inside the flat bag against external influences such as moisture or friction while allowing easy joint handling of the objects taken from the flat bag, as several objects in a predetermined composition can be transported and stored together. On the other hand, by the holder, which connects the objects in the interior of the flat bag together, a slight common removal of all objects from the interior of the flat bag allows, which facilitates the joint handling of the objects with respect to a liberation of the objects from the flat bag. Also, such an advantageous orientation of the objects can be ensured during their removal. By the at least one weakened lateral edge of the flat bag, which tear during the removal of the objects from the flat bag, the relief of the interconnected via the holder objects from the protective flat bag is much easier because the objects need not leave the flat bag over the opening , As a result, the opening may be formed as small as possible in order to prevent the ingress of dirt and the like and inadvertent escape of the objects from the flat bag.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist die Öffnung des Flachbeutels durch eine verkürzte Ausbildung der Frontfläche des Flachbeutels gebildet. Dabei ist die Lasche einstückig mit der Rückfläche des Flachbeutels ausgebildet, auf die Frontfläche des Flachbeutels umgeschlagen und nahe den seitlichen Kanten an der Frontfläche des Flachbeutels befestigt, sodass die Lasche mit der Frontfläche des Flachbeutels überlappt und die auf der Vorderseite des Flachbeutels zwischen der Frontfläche des Flachbeutels und der Rückseite des Flachbeutels gebildete Öffnung des Flachbeutels abdeckt.According to one embodiment, the opening of the flat bag is formed by a shortened design of the front surface of the flat bag. In this case, the tab is integrally formed with the rear surface of the flat bag, folded onto the front surface of the flat bag and attached near the lateral edges on the front surface of the flat bag, so that the flap overlaps with the front surface of the flat bag and on the front of the flat bag between the front surface of the flat bag Flat bag and the back of the flat bag formed opening of the flat bag covers.
