Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an outer packaging according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Outer packaging is known from the prior art, which is preferably made from cardboard or corrugated cardboard.
  • the outer packaging usually consists of four flat side walls, which can be folded flat in bundles of several outer packaging to save space, for example two sides on top of each other, in order to store and transport the outer packaging, and which can be unfolded for use, for example, into cubic or cuboid spatial shapes .
  • Goods to be packaged are then placed in the interior space formed and delimited in this way, so that they are better protected against possible damage during subsequent storage and transport.
  • Such outer packaging is available on the market in different sizes. However, they must then be procured and kept available in the required size.
  • cube-shaped or cuboid-shaped folding cartons - preferably made of corrugated cardboard - are known in which flaps located at the upper and lower ends are folded over to form a base and the Close cardboard box. When filling the box, the flaps are annoying because they stick out to the side.
  • the object is achieved by a method for producing an outer packaging with the characterizing features of claim 12.
  • the side walls can be built up from several closed rings of side walls up to a desired height. If the first ring has a height of, for example, only 50 cm, the packages of goods to be packed can be inserted into this ring and stacked up in it much more easily. The packing people no longer have to lift the packages of goods over side walls that are too high and then bend down deeply into a box to place the package in it.
  • a ring When a ring is mentioned in this description and the claims, this particularly refers to material surfaces connected to form a ring or a strand of material connected at opposite ends to form a ring, in which the partial material surfaces forming the side walls pass through at the edges to an adjacent side wall a kind of hinge are connected to each other, so that the ring can be used in angular spatial shapes.
  • the hinge can be formed by a folding of the material of the ring or a material weakening present in this area, or special materials are introduced in the hinge area, such as a film or the like, which allows a hinge-like pivoting of a side wall in relation to an adjacent side wall. Due to the hinge-like connection of the side walls to one another, a ring can be folded together to save space, but it can also be set up in its desired packaging volume.
  • a greater height of the side walls of the outer packaging is required after the provision of the first ring, it is sufficient to attach support strips in corner areas to the upper edges of the side walls in order to then insert a further ring of side walls onto the support strips from above.
  • a second ring with a height of, for example, 50 cm can be used here, or only one ring with a height of the side walls of 25 cm is used.
  • a third or fourth ring with a suitable height of the side walls can also be used accordingly be attached. In this way, outer packaging with a total height of the side walls of, for example, 75 cm, 1 m or other heights can be set up.
  • the side walls are divided in the horizontal direction, but they are sufficiently strong for packaging purposes because the rings are held together sufficiently firmly by the clamping tabs.
  • the support strips with the clamping tabs formed thereon can easily be slipped onto the upper edges of the side walls in corner areas of the outer packaging.
  • the upper ring of side walls is already fixed in its spatial position with a certain degree of strength. A better fixation results, however, if the support strips are placed on the upper edges of the side walls at, for example, all four corners of an outer packaging with a square base in the corner area.
  • the packing personnel can quickly attach the support strips to the lower ring and insert the upper ring into the clamping lugs of the support strips.
  • the components are connected without tools. They need rings from side walls and kept ready in boxes for removal Support strips can easily be provided at every packaging workstation.
  • the packaging personnel can set the height of the outer packaging by suitable combinations of ring heights as high as is required for the goods to be packed. In this way it can be avoided that shipping units that have a side wall height of 1 m, but only goods that are less than 50 cm high are packed into a shipping company for transport. If, in such cases, the height of the outer packaging is limited to 50 cm, the transport costs charged by the shipping company will decrease by 50% if they are calculated based on the volume.
  • An outer packaging that is fully stocked with goods can then be end-packed with tapes, stretch films and other means suitable for fixing the outer packaging.
  • the outer packaging is set with the lower side walls in a base part.
  • the bottom part can be a plate, tub with side walls protruding at the corners or the side edges, or a pallet.
  • the first ring can be connected to the base part via suitable connecting aids such as clips, glue, adhesive strips, tuck-in tabs with latching lugs or the like inserted into prepared slots, or the The first ring is only placed on the bottom part and the firm connection is only made at the end of the packaging process by means of tapes, strapping, stretch film or the like.
  • a cover part is placed on the upper side walls of the outer packaging.
  • the cover part can be a flat plate or a cover with side walls which are drawn down at the corners or the side edges and which overlap the side parts of the rings.
  • anti-slip elements are applied to the top of the cover part. If several outer packaging are stacked on top of one another during transport, the anti-slip elements can prevent or at least reduce the risk that the outer packaging will slide on one another and one outer packaging will fall from an outer packaging located below.
  • the clamping lugs formed on the inner and outer edges are spaced apart from the clamping lugs arranged adjacently on the same side of the inner or outer edge.
  • the clamping lugs are not formed continuously over the full length of the support strips. This saves material on the support strips. With the same amount of material, the support ledges can become longer, whereby the forces acting on them are more even and not only be able to transfer them selectively in the direct corner area to the rings connected to the support ledge.
  • the clamping lugs formed opposite one another on the inner and outer edges are arranged offset to one another.
  • the holding forces from the clamping lugs act alternately from outside and inside over the length of the support bar on the surfaces of the rings contacted by the clamping lugs. Since the side walls bulge slightly in the direction of the force under the acting force, the result is a slight wave shape
  • the support strips have kinks with material recesses or material weaknesses.
  • the support strips can be manufactured inexpensively as an injection-molded extruded profile as an endless bar product or as an individual part using the injection molding process. So that the support strips can still be processed in the corner area as a component connecting across a corner in an outer packaging, it is necessary to design a support strip produced as an endless extruded profile or as a single part using the injection molding process so that it is bent as an extruded profile into a corresponding shape can. That is possible in that a support bar has material recesses or material weakenings in the area of a provided kink, which simplify a corresponding kinking of the extruded profile of the support bar. In the case of an endless extruded profile, the material recesses or material weakenings must be made in the extruded profile after the endless strand emerges from the tool.
  • adjacent clamping tabs forming a corner are connected to one another by a film hinge.
  • the purpose of the film hinge is to transfer forces acting on one leg of a support bar across the corner to the leg on the other side of the corner. In this way, the film hinge helps to increase the strength of the connection between the two rings.
  • clamping lugs formed on the inner edge protrude higher over the support bar than clamping lugs formed on the outer edge.
  • the higher clamping lugs help to position the upper ring as precisely as possible over the lower ring and the clamping lugs and to align it as precisely as possible before the upper ring is inserted into the insertion channel assigned to it is pushed in.
  • the clamping tabs have stiffening ribs.
  • the clamping brackets are overall more rigid, without the material expenditure for the support strips increasing significantly. Due to the greater rigidity, the support strips are overall more stable, less prone to breakage and increase the protective effect of the outer packaging for the goods packed therein.
  • the clamping lugs have clamping lugs or barbs protruding from the surrounding surface of the clamping lug on their inside facing the support bar.
  • the clamping lugs or barbs on the clamping lugs should press into the material of the side walls or even penetrate into the material of the side walls when the side walls are inserted into the insertion channel, so that the ring can only be pulled out of the insertion channel again with much greater effort. As a result, a ring is held better in its installation position, and the outer packaging is more stable overall.
  • the side walls are made of corrugated cardboard.
  • Corrugated cardboard is a proven and particularly well-suited material for packaging purposes, which on the one hand is sufficiently light so as not to make packaging and transport unnecessarily difficult, but on the other hand offers a high level of protection against damage to the goods packed with it.
  • the clamping lugs have a shape through which the insertion channel is widened at its insertion end in relation to the deeper sections. The expansion makes it easier to thread the edges of the rings into the insertion channel.
  • a Euro pallet 2 lying on the floor is shown, on which a floor part 4 is placed.
  • the bottom part 4 can have side walls 6 attached to the side and projecting upwards.
  • a lower ring 8 can be placed on the bottom part 4, which is shown in FIG Fig. 2 is shown.
  • the ring 8 has four standing side walls 10.
  • the respective side walls 10 are connected to one another via the respective corners to form adjacent side walls 10, so that the ring 8 is closed on the circumference.
  • the ring 8 is set up in such a way that a cuboid three-dimensional shape results. Goods for packaging purposes can be placed in the interior of the ring 8.
  • the ring 8 has an upwardly pointing upper edge 12 on which a support bar 14 can be placed.
  • the support bar 14 is in Fig. 3 shown in more detail.
  • the support ledge 14 has an inner edge 16 and an outer edge 18.
  • clamping lugs 20 which extend upwards and downwards from the support ledge plane. From the representation in Fig. 3 it can be seen that the inner clamping lugs 20 attached to the inner edge 16 protrude higher up and down than the clamping lugs 20 attached to the outer edge 18.
  • the clamping lugs 20 delimit between each have an insertion channel 22 into which the side walls 10 of the upper and lower ring 8, 38 can be inserted.
  • Fig. 3 the support bar 14 is shown in an embodiment bent to a right angle.
  • the kink 26 in which, in the exemplary embodiment, the two legs of the support bar 14 are only connected to one another by a film hinge 28.
  • the film hinge 28 connects two adjacent clamping tabs 20, which are arranged adjacent to one another in the region of the kink 26.
  • a material recess 30 which allows one of the two legs of the support bar 14 to be pivoted in relation to the other leg by 90 ° to a support bar 14 extending over a corner.
  • clamping lugs 20 each have stiffening ribs 32, which in the exemplary embodiment are formed in the edge region.
  • barbs 34 on the side of the clamping lugs 20 facing the support bar 14.
  • the barbs 34 can dig into the material of the side walls 10 when it is inserted into the insertion channel 22.
  • the barb 34 is shaped in such a way that it counteracts a pull-out movement of a side wall 10 from the insertion channel 22.
  • the widenings 36 can be seen, which are formed on the inner surfaces of the clamping lugs 20 for the insertion opening of the insertion channels 22.
  • the clamping lugs 20 arranged on the inner edge 16 and the outer edge 18 are each arranged at a distance from one another, and there are large free spaces between the clamping lugs 20 on one side of the support bar 14.
  • the clamping tabs 20 attached to the opposite inner and outer edges 16, 18 are, however, offset from one another as seen in the longitudinal direction of the support bar 14, so that wherever there is a clamping tab 20 on one side of the support bar 14, it is on the opposite side of the support bar 14 no clamping lug 20 is formed.
  • the Fig. 4 now shows what the outer packaging looks like after first the various support strips 14 in the corner areas of the ring 8 and then the upper ring 38 has been inserted into the upwardly pointing insertion channel 22 of the support strip 14 on the upper edges 12 of the side walls 10 of the ring 8 .
  • the clamping lugs 20 are connected both on the outside and on the inside to the lower ring 8 and the upper ring 38 and connect these two rings 8, 38 to one another.
  • the upper ring 38 corresponds to the lower ring 8 in terms of its length and shape, side walls 10 which are subdivided in their height and which are each formed by the corresponding surfaces of the rings 8 and 38 result after the upper ring 38 has been slipped on. From the comparison of the Figures 2 and 4th it can be seen that it is much easier to first place the ring 8 as in Fig. 2 shown to be filled with goods to be packaged before the upper ring 38 is placed on it.
  • more than two rings 8, 38 can also be stacked on top of one another.
  • the support strips 14 are comparatively long, so that the upper ring 38 is connected and supported with the lower ring 8 over almost the entire length of the upper edge 12.
  • the support bar 14 can of course also be shorter.
  • Fig. 5 an outer packaging is shown on which a cover part 40 is also placed.
  • slip-resistant elements 42 are applied, which at least make it more difficult for a pallet that is placed on the cover part 40 to slip.
  • the invention is not restricted to the exemplary embodiment described above.
  • the person skilled in the art does not have any difficulties in modifying the exemplary embodiment in a manner that appears suitable to him in order to adapt it to a specific application.
