Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Karton mit einem faltbaren Isolierbehälter in seinem Kartoninnenraum, insbesondere einen Faltkarton.The present invention relates to a carton with a foldable insulated container in its interior, in particular a folding carton.

Die Erfindung geht von Kartons, insbesondere Faltkartons aus, auf deren Kartoninnenseite Isoliermaterial fixiert ist. Das Isoliermaterial kann aufkaschiert, aufgeklebt oder in sonstiger Weise fixiert werden. Da diese Kartons zum Falten Falze und/oder Lücken aufweisen, ist die Isolierung teilweise unterbrochen. Durch diese Unterbrechungen kann Wärme in das Kartoninnere gelangen und so die Isolierwirkung des Kartons beeinträchtigen.The invention is based on cardboard boxes, in particular folding cardboard boxes, on the inside of which cardboard insulating material is fixed. The insulating material can be laminated on, glued on or fixed in any other way. Since these boxes have folds and / or gaps for folding, the insulation is partially interrupted. As a result of these interruptions, heat can get inside the carton and thus impair the insulating effect of the carton.

Ausgehend hiervon liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Karton mit verbesserter Isolierung zu realisieren.Proceeding from this, the object of the invention is to realize a carton with improved insulation.

Diese Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmalskombination des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Die rückbezogenen Ansprüche beinhalten teilweise vorteilhafte und teilweise für sich selbst erfinderische Weiterbildungen dieser Erfindung.This object is achieved by the combination of features of claim 1. The back-related claims contain partially advantageous and partially inventive developments of this invention.

Die Erfindung beruht auf der Grundüberlegung, im Kartoninnenraum eines üblichen Kartons einen weiteren faltbaren und einstückigen Isolierbehälter anzuordnen. Dieser Isolierbehälter ist einteilig bzw. einstückig und kann so gefaltet werden, dass der in seine Endstellung gefaltete Isolierbehälter an den Kartoninnenraum angepasst ist. Wichtig ist dabei, dass der Isolierbehälter seinerseits in sich abgeschlossen ist, um eine Bildung von Wärmebrücken gegenüber den Innenwandungen des Kartons zu verhindern.The invention is based on the basic idea of arranging a further foldable and one-piece insulating container in the interior of a conventional carton. This insulating container is in one piece or in one piece and can be folded so that the insulating container folded into its end position is adapted to the interior of the box. It is important that the insulating container is self-contained in order to prevent thermal bridges from forming against the inner walls of the cardboard.

Dieser Isolierbehälter besteht aus Isoliermaterial, beispielsweise einer isolierenden Folie, Isoliermatten oder dergleichen. Beim aufgestellten Karton bzw. aufgefalteten Faltkarton liegen die Außenwandungen des Isolierbehälters an den Innenwandungen des Kartons an. Die Wandungen, also die Seitenwände, der Boden und der Deckel des Isolierbehälters sind in ihrer Größe so an die Wandungen des Faltkartons angepasst, dass der Isolierbehälter in den Kartoninnenraum des Faltkartons hinein passt. Vorteilhaft ist es, wenn der Isolierbehälter geringfügig größer ist als der Kartoninnenraum. Der Isolierbehälter kann dann immer noch problemlos in den Kartoninnenraum eingebracht werden. Allerdings wellen sich die Außenflächen der Wandungen des Isolierbehälters geringfügig, so dass Hohlräume oder Freiräume im Kartoninnenraum des Kartons vom Material des Isolierbehälters ausgefüllt bzw. ausgepolstert werden. Dieses geringfügige Übermaß des Isolierbehälters gegenüber dem Kartoninnenraum ist beispielsweise dadurch realisierbar, dass die Flächen der Wandungen des Isolierbehälters und die Flächen der jeweils benachbarten Wandungen des Kartons gleich groß sind und die Wandstärke der Wandungen des Isolierbehälters so dick gewählt sind, dass sie gleichsam in die vorerwähnten Hohlräume oder Freiräume hinein quillen.This insulating container consists of insulating material, for example an insulating film, insulating mats or the like. When the box is set up or folded up, the outer walls of the insulated container lie against the inner walls of the box. The walls, i.e. the side walls, the The size of the bottom and the lid of the insulated container are adapted to the walls of the folding carton so that the insulated container fits into the inside of the folding carton. It is advantageous if the insulating container is slightly larger than the inside of the box. The insulated container can then still be easily inserted into the interior of the box. However, the outer surfaces of the walls of the insulating container are slightly wavy, so that voids or free spaces in the interior of the cardboard box are filled or padded by the material of the insulating container. This slight oversize of the insulated container compared to the interior of the box can be realized, for example, by the fact that the surfaces of the walls of the insulated container and the surfaces of the adjacent walls of the cardboard are the same size and the wall thickness of the walls of the insulated container are selected so thick that they are, as it were, in the aforementioned Swell voids or open spaces.

In weiterer vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung hat eine Wandung des Isolierbehälters eine größere Fläche als die ihr zugeordnete Wandung des Kartons. Auf diese Weise wellen sich wiederum die Außenflächen der Wandungen des Isolierbehälters nach außen und können so in Hohlräume oder Freiräume des Kartoninnenraums des Faltkartons eindringen und diese ausfüllen.In a further advantageous embodiment, a wall of the insulating container has a larger area than the wall of the carton assigned to it. In this way, the outer surfaces of the walls of the insulating container in turn wave outwards and can thus penetrate into and fill in cavities or free spaces in the cardboard interior of the folded cardboard.

Sofern in diesem Text der Begriff "Wandung" verwendet wird, kann es sich alternativ um die Vorderwand, Seitenwand, Rückwand, den Boden oder den Deckel des Kartons und/oder des Isolierbehälters handeln. Der Begriff "Wandung" soll gleichsam als Oberbegriff für ein Wandelement stehen unabhängig, ob dies den Boden, den Deckel oder eine wie auch immer geartete Wand des Faltkartons bzw. des Isolierbehälters betrifft.If the term "wall" is used in this text, it can alternatively be the front wall, side wall, rear wall, the bottom or the lid of the carton and / or the insulating container. The term "wall" is, as it were, a generic term for a wall element, regardless of whether this concerns the floor, the lid or any type of wall of the folding carton or the insulating container.

Die vorliegende Erfindung eignet sich besonders gut für Faltkartons. Allerdings ist die Wirkung des Isolierbehälters auch mit andersartig aufgebauten Kartons realisierbar. Beispielsweise kann der Karton auch zusammengesteckt sein. Die Erfindung eignet sich also für sämtliche Arten von Kartons.The present invention is particularly suitable for folding cartons. However, the effect of the insulated container can also be achieved with differently constructed cartons. For example, the box can also be put together. The invention is therefore suitable for all types of cartons.

In weiterer vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung ist die Fläche des Isolierbehälterbodens größer als diejenige des Kartonbodens. Dies bewirkt die bereits angesprochene Wellung des Isoliermaterials des Isolierbehälters. Die Randbereiche zwischen den Seitenwänden des Isolierbehälters bilden auf diese Weise polsterungsartige Wülste bzw. Aufpolsterungen aus. Nach Art von Dichtringen oder Dichtgummis füllen diese wulstartigen Randbereiche des Isolierbehälters die von den Seitenwänden eines Faltkartons gebildeten Eckbereiche aus. Da gerade in den Eckbereichen Rillungen oder Schwächungen zum Falten der Seitenwände eines Faltkartons ausgebildet sind, verbessern diese Wülste die Dichtwirkung des Isolierbehälters insbesondere in entsprechenden Randbereichen eines Faltkartons.In a further advantageous embodiment, the surface of the insulating container base is larger than that of the cardboard base. This causes the corrugation of the insulating material of the insulating container already mentioned. In this way, the edge areas between the side walls of the insulating container form upholstery-like beads or upholstery. In the manner of sealing rings or sealing rubbers, these bead-like edge areas of the insulating container fill the corner areas formed by the side walls of a folding carton. Since creases or weaknesses are formed in the corner areas for folding the side walls of a folding box, these beads improve the sealing effect of the insulating container, in particular in corresponding edge areas of a folding box.

In weiterer vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung sind die Außenwandungen des Isolierbehälters an den Innenwandungen des Kartons fixiert, beispielsweise mit Hilfe einer Klebefolie angeklebt. Auf diese Weise ist es beispielsweise möglich, den faltbaren Isolierbehälter bereits am aufgefalteten Zuschnitt eines Faltkartons zu adaptieren und den aus Faltkarton und faltbarem Isolierbehälter bestehenden Faltkarton in einem einzigen Faltvorgang aufzustellen. Dies kann der Kunde somit selbst bewerkstelligen. Auch ist es vorteilhaft, den Faltkarton mit dem daran adaptierten Isolierbehälter vor oder nach dem Transport teilweise oder ganz aufzufalten, um so den Faltkarton flach lagern zu können oder ihn flachbauend und damit platzsparend transportieren zu können.In a further advantageous embodiment, the outer walls of the insulating container are fixed to the inner walls of the cardboard, for example glued on with the aid of an adhesive film. In this way it is possible, for example, to adapt the foldable insulated container to the unfolded blank of a folding box and to set up the folding box consisting of a folding box and a foldable insulated container in a single folding operation. The customer can do this himself. It is also advantageous to partially or completely unfold the folding box with the insulated container adapted thereon before or after transport, in order to be able to store the folding box flat or to be able to transport it flat and thus saving space.

Zur weiteren Verbesserung der Dichtwirkung ist vorgeschlagen, die schwenkbaren Laschen an den Oberkanten bzw. den Unterkanten der Seitenwände des Isolierbehälters mit dem jeweils benachbarten Isolierbehälterdeckel oder Isolierbehälterboden zu verbinden. Wird der Isolierbehälter in seine Transportstellung aufgefaltet, bilden sich zwischen den Laschen und dem Isolierbehälterdeckel bzw. Isolierbehälterboden Überlappungen und doppeln so das Dichtmaterial in diesem Bereich gleichsam auf. Auch diese Maßnahme führt zu einer Verbesserung der Isolierwirkung in den neuralgischen Kantenbereichen bzw. Eckbereichen.To further improve the sealing effect, it is proposed to connect the pivotable tabs on the upper edges or the lower edges of the side walls of the insulating container to the respectively adjacent insulating container cover or insulating container bottom. If the insulated container is unfolded into its transport position, overlaps form between the tabs and the insulated container lid or insulated container bottom, thus doubling up the sealing material in this area. This measure also leads to an improvement in the insulating effect in the sensitive edge areas or corner areas.

Auch wirken diese Überlappungen einem Absinken der Isolierleistung des Isolierbehälters entgegen, wenn der Karton in Kantenbereichen beispielsweise beschädigt ist.These overlaps also counteract a decrease in the insulating capacity of the insulating container if the carton is damaged in edge areas, for example.

Anhand des nachfolgenden Ausführungsbeispiels ist die Erfindung mit weiteren Einzelheiten beschreiben. Es zeigen:

Der in Fig. 1 im aufgefalteten Zustand dargestellte Karton 1 ist ein Faltkarton und besteht aus einer Kartonvorderwand 2, zwei Kartonseitenwänden 3, einer Kartonrückwand 4, einem Kartonboden 5 sowie einem Kartondeckel 6. An ihren oberen Rändern tragen die Kartonseitenwände 3 Schwenklaschen 7. An den Unterseiten der Kartonseitenwände 3 sind schwenkbare Verstärkungslaschen 8 angeordnet, welche ihrerseits an jeweils einer Randkante eine Stecklasche 9 tragen. An der Unterseite der Kartonvorderwand 2 ist eine Stabilisierungslasche 10 schwenkbar gelagert. Die Stabilisierungslasche 10 weist seitlich eine Stecktasche 11 auf. Ebenso weist der Kartonboden 5 eine Stecktasche 11 auf. In jede Stecktasche 11 wird eine der Stecklaschen 9 beim aufgefalteten Karton 1 hineingesteckt. Aus dem oberen Rand der Kartonvorderwand 2 ist schließlich eine Schließzunge 12 ausgeschnitten. Am vorderen Rand des Kartondeckels 6 ist ein zur Schließzunge 12 komplementärer Aufnahmeschlitz 13 vorgesehen, um den Kartondeckel 6 im Bereich der Kartonvorderwand 2 verschließen zu können. Im Bereich des Aufnahmeschlitzes 13 ist auch eine zusätzliche Verschlusslasche 14 schwenkbar gelagert.The in Fig. 1 The carton 1 shown in the unfolded state is a folding carton and consists of a carton front wall 2, two carton side walls 3, a carton rear wall 4, a carton bottom 5 and a carton lid 6 pivotable reinforcement tabs 8 are arranged, which in turn carry a plug-in tab 9 on each edge. On the underside of the cardboard front wall 2, a stabilizing tab 10 is pivotally mounted. The stabilizing tab 10 has a pocket 11 on the side. Likewise, the cardboard bottom 5 has a pocket 11. In each pocket 11 one of the tabs 9 is inserted when the carton 1 is unfolded. Finally, a closing tongue 12 is cut out of the upper edge of the cardboard front wall 2. At the front edge of the cardboard cover 6, a receiving slot 13 complementary to the closing tongue 12 is provided in order to be able to close the cardboard cover 6 in the region of the cardboard front wall 2. In the area of the receiving slot 13, an additional locking tab 14 is also pivotally mounted.

Analog zum vorstehend beschriebenen Karton 1 weist der in Fig. 2 dargestellte Isolierbehälter 15 eine Behältervorderwand 16, zwei Behälterseitenwände 17, eine Behälterrückwand 18, einen Behälterboden 19 und einen Behälterdeckel 20 auf. An den Oberkanten und den Unterkanten der Behältervorderwand 16 und den Behälterseitenwänden 17 sind jeweils zusätzliche Isolierlaschen 21 schwenkbar gelagert. Die Isolierlaschen 21 sind dabei mit Überlappungen 22 mit dem jeweils benachbarten Behälterdeckel 20 oder Behälterboden 21 verbunden.Analogous to the carton 1 described above, the in Fig. 2 Insulated container 15 shown a container front wall 16, two container side walls 17, a container rear wall 18, a container bottom 19 and a container lid 20. Additional insulating tabs 21 are each pivotably mounted on the upper edges and the lower edges of the front wall 16 of the container and the side walls 17 of the container. The insulating tabs 21 are connected with overlaps 22 to the adjacent container lid 20 or container bottom 21.

In Fig. 1 sind schließlich Klebestellen 23 erkennbar. Die Klebestellen 23 sind an den Innenseiten des Kartonbodens 5, der Kartonrückwand 4, der Kartonseitenwände 3 und der Kartonvorderwand 2 angeordnet. Ferner tragen auch die Verstärkungslaschen 8 und die Stabilisierungslasche 10 im Ausführungsbeispiel Klebestellen 23. Mit Hilfe dieser Klebestellen 23 ist der in Fig. 2 dargestellte Zuschnitt des Isolierbehälters 15 am Karton 1 vor dem Auffalten fixiert.In Fig. 1 finally glue points 23 can be seen. The adhesive points 23 are arranged on the inner sides of the carton bottom 5, the carton rear wall 4, the carton side walls 3 and the carton front wall 2. Furthermore, the reinforcing tabs 8 and the stabilizing tab 10 in the exemplary embodiment also carry glue points 23 Fig. 2 shown blank of the insulating container 15 fixed on the cardboard 1 before unfolding.

Mit Hilfe von Maßpfeilen sind jeweils die Eigenlänge 24 und die Eigenbreite 25 der Kartonvorderwand 2, der Kartonseitenwände 3, der Kartonrückwand 4, des Kartonbodens 5 und des Kartondeckels 6 des Kartons 1 einerseits sowie der Behältervorderwand 16, der Behälterseitenwände 17, der Behälterrückwand 18, des Behälterbodens 19 und des Behälterdeckels 20 des Isolierbehälters 15 andererseits angedeutet. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Eigenlänge 24 und die Eigenbreite 25 der Kartonvorderwand 2, der Kartonseitenwände 3, der Kartonrückwand 4 und des Kartondeckels 6 jeweils größer oder gleich der Eigenlänge 24 bzw. der Eigenbreite 25 der entsprechenden Behältervorderwand 16, Behälterseitenwände 17, Behälterrückwand 18 und Behälterdeckel 20. Im Falle des Behälterbodens 19 ist dessen Eigenbreite 25 größer als die Eigenbreite 25 des entsprechenden Kartonbodens 5. Auf diese Weise weist der Behälterboden 19 eine größere Fläche als der Kartonboden 5 auf.With the help of dimension arrows, the intrinsic length 24 and the intrinsic width 25 of the carton front wall 2, the carton side walls 3, the carton rear wall 4, the carton bottom 5 and the carton lid 6 of the carton 1 on the one hand and the container front wall 16, the container side walls 17, the container rear wall 18, of the Container bottom 19 and the container lid 20 of the insulating container 15 indicated on the other hand. In the exemplary embodiment, the intrinsic length 24 and the intrinsic width 25 of the carton front wall 2, the carton side walls 3, the carton rear wall 4 and the carton lid 6 are each greater than or equal to the intrinsic length 24 or the intrinsic width 25 of the corresponding container front wall 16, container side walls 17, container rear wall 18 and container lid 20 In the case of the container bottom 19, its own width 25 is larger than the own width 25 of the corresponding carton bottom 5. In this way, the container bottom 19 has a larger area than the carton bottom 5.

Der Karton 1 weist zwischen seinen schwenkbaren Elementen jeweils Falzkanten 26 auf. Nach dem Aufstellen des Faltkartons 1 und des mit dem Faltkarton 1 über die Klebestellen 23 verbundenen Isolierbehälters 15 bilden sich in Folge des Übermaßes des Isolierbehälters 15 gegenüber dem Innenraum des Faltkartons 1 Wülste oder dergleichen am Isolierbehälter 15 aus. Diese Wülste ragen in die Falzkanten 26 hinein und füllen die Falzkanten 26 am aufgestellten Karton 1 isolierend aus. Dasselbe gilt für die bereits erwähnten Überlappungen 22, die in Freiräume 27 am Karton 1 hineinragen.The carton 1 has fold edges 26 between its pivotable elements. After the folding box 1 and the insulating container 15 connected to the folding box 1 via the gluing points 23 have been set up, bulges or the like form on the insulating container 15 as a result of the excess of the insulating container 15 compared to the interior of the folding box. These beads protrude into the folded edges 26 and fill the folded edges 26 on the cardboard 1 set up in an insulating manner. The same applies to the overlaps 22 already mentioned, which protrude into free spaces 27 on the carton 1.
