Description

Caja de base octogonal. Octagonal base box.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

La presente invención se refiere a una caja de fondo octogonal, materializada en cartón a partir del desarrollo de una lámina con líneas de corte y doblez para conformar el fondo y las paredes laterales de la caja. The present invention relates to an octagonal bottom box, materialized in cardboard from the development of a sheet with cut and fold lines to form the bottom and side walls of the box.

El objeto de la invención es conseguir una caja de cartón de fácil armado, resistente en su estructura, en virtud precisamente de la configuración octogonal que presenta la caja, y cuya configuración viene determinada por cuatro lados mayores y cuatro lados menores intercalados con los anteriores, pudiendo los cuatro lados mayores ser de distinta The object of the invention is to achieve an easily assembled cardboard box, resistant in its structure, by virtue of precisely the octagonal configuration presented by the box, and whose configuration is determined by four major sides and four minor sides interspersed with the foregoing, the four major sides can be different

o igual longitud, es decir, determinando una caja abierta superiormente, de planta cuadrada o de planta rectangular, con sus vértices achaflanados. or equal length, that is, determining a top open box, square or rectangular, with its chamfered vertices.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Se conocen cajas de cartón para el transporte de productos, aunque en aquellos casos en los que el cartón es simple, e incluso corrugado y de grosor notable, la caja no ofrece la suficiente rigidez y resistencia para soportar el desplazamiento interior de los productos contenidos en la misma, deformándose y llegándose a producir una rotura de la propia caja con la consiguiente caída de los productos. Cardboard boxes are known for the transport of products, although in those cases in which the cardboard is simple, and even corrugated and of notable thickness, the box does not offer sufficient rigidity and resistance to withstand the internal displacement of the products contained in the same, deforming and becoming a breakage of the box itself with the consequent fall of the products.

Dicho problema se resuelve en parte dotando a la caja de un contorno octogonal, donde la resistencia es mucho mayor que la clásica caja rectangular, y donde el contorno octogonal está formado por dos lados laterales mayores, dos lados laterales menores o testeros y cuatro lados intercalados con los anteriores de escasa anchura y que corresponden a las esquinas. This problem is solved in part by providing the box with an octagonal contour, where the resistance is much greater than the classic rectangular box, and where the octagonal contour is formed by two major lateral sides, two minor lateral sides or front and four intercalated sides. with the previous ones of little width and that correspond to the corners.

Una caja del tipo referido es la descrita en el Modelo de Utilidad 200700752 que se refiere a una caja de cartón, en donde los cuatro laterales mayores están delimitados por sectores de escasa anchura formando los cuatro lados que determinan el contorno octogonal de la caja. A box of the type referred to is that described in Utility Model 200700752 which refers to a cardboard box, where the four major sides are delimited by sectors of small width forming the four sides that determine the octagonal contour of the box.

De los lados tanto mayores como menores, es decir los laterales de la caja, emergen solapas que convenientemente plegadas van a formar el fondo de la propia caja, presentando cada una de esas solapas un tramo inicial trapecial. From the sides both major and minor, that is to say the sides of the box, flaps emerge that conveniently folded will form the bottom of the box itself, each of those flaps presenting an initial trapecial section.

El problema que presentan este tipo de cajas es que en el armado del fondo, es decir en la superposición de la solapa por parejas que han de formar dicho fondo, se requieren medios que vinculen entre si unas solapas con otras, cuyos medios lógicamente son aplicados con posterioridad al armado de la caja, pudiendo ser cintas adhesivas, encolados, etc., lo que indudablemente lleva consigo un encarecimiento y complejidad a la hora de armar la caja. The problem presented by this type of boxes is that in the assembly of the fund, that is to say in the overlapping of the flap by pairs that have to form said fund, means are required that link some flaps with each other, whose means are logically applied after the assembly of the box, being able to be adhesive tapes, glued, etc., which undoubtedly entails an increase in cost and complexity when assembling the box.

Otro inconveniente es que cada una de las solapas que van a formar el fondo presentan en todos los casos un tramo inicial trapecial, lo que da origen a que en la fase de plegado en línea o automático durante el proceso de fabricación de la caja se necesiten útiles especiales para formar esas configuraciones trapeciales iniciales de las solapas, lo que indudablemente también encarece el producto final o caja propiamente dicha. Another drawback is that each of the flaps that are going to form the bottom in all cases have an initial trapecial section, which gives rise to the need for in-line or automatic folding during the process of manufacturing the box special tools to form these initial trapezoidal configurations of the flaps, which undoubtedly also increases the price of the final product or box itself.

El propio solicitante es titular del modelo de utilidad U200502691, en la que se describe una caja de fondo octogonal, que si bien soluciona la problemática anteriormente expuesta, presenta una estructuración compleja, lo que dificulta su montaje y encarece su producción, motivos por los que se propone esta nueva estructuración. The applicant himself is the holder of the utility model U200502691, in which an octagonal bottom box is described, which, although it solves the problem described above, presents a complex structuring, which makes assembly difficult and increases its production, which is why This new structuring is proposed.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

La caja de fondo octogonal que se preconiza presenta una serie de novedades y particularidades que permiten solventar la problemática anteriormente expuesta. The octagonal bottom box that is recommended presents a series of novelties and particularities that allow to solve the problem previously exposed.

La caja de la invención presenta dos laterales mayores, en funciones de gualderas, dos laterales menores o testeros y cuatro sectores de menor anchura intercalados entre éstos elementos, de manera que de los laterales que determinan las gualderas y los testeros emergen inferiormente sendas solapas, para formar el fondo, dos de ellas de idéntica anchura a la de los testeros, y las otras dos, ligeramente mas anchas, con un sector inicial trapezoidal-isoscélico, de lados acordes a la anchura de los sectores menores que determinan los chaflanes de la caja. The box of the invention has two major sides, depending on the width, two minor sides or front and four sectors of smaller width interspersed between these elements, so that from the sides that determine the roofs and the roofs, lower flaps emerge inferiorly, for form the bottom, two of them of identical width to that of the heads, and the other two, slightly wider, with an initial trapezoidal-isoscellic sector, with sides according to the width of the smaller sectors that determine the chamfers of the box .

De acuerdo con otra de las características de la invención, las solapas derivadas de los laterales mayores presentan en su borde libre, un escalonamiento longitudinal, que afecta a la mitad de dicho borde, de manera que, se definen respectivas aletas destinadas a engarzar entre sí con respecto al escalonamiento o borde complementario de la solapa opuesta, con la particularidad de que la anchura de dichas solapas, sin tener en cuenta la anchura de las aletas, coinciden con la mitad de la anchura prevista para la caja, quedando engarzadas entre sí dichas aletas en su pliegue hacia el interior de la caja. According to another of the features of the invention, the flaps derived from the major sides have a longitudinal step in their free edge, which affects half of said edge, so that respective fins are defined to be crimped together. with respect to the stepping or complementary edge of the opposite flap, with the particularity that the width of said flaps, without taking into account the width of the fins, coincide with half the width provided for the box, said links being crimped together. fins in its fold towards the inside of the box.

Otra característica de novedad es que las solapas derivadas de los laterales menores son rectas y de la misma anchura que la anchura de esos laterales menores, no requiriendo efectuar la configuración trapecial inicial de la solapa, como se requiere convencionalmente, lo que indudablemente da lugar a una mayor sencillez constructiva y de armado de la propia caja y que van por fuera. Another characteristic of novelty is that the flaps derived from the minor sides are straight and of the same width as the width of those minor sides, not requiring the initial trapecial configuration of the flap, as conventionally required, which undoubtedly results in a greater constructive simplicity and armed of the own box and that go outside.

En cuanto a la longitud de éstas solapas menores, la misma podrá variar, cubriendo parcialmente el fondo definido por las solapas mayores, de manera que, en una variante de realización, las mismas podrán incorporar una escotadura en un caso y una lengüeta, en el otro trapezoidales, sobre su extremidad libre, que en situación de montaje queden enrasadas, encajando entre sí. As for the length of these minor flaps, it may vary, partially covering the bottom defined by the major flaps, so that, in a variant embodiment, they may incorporate a recess in a case and a tongue, in the another trapezoidal, on its free limb, which are flush mounted, fitting together.

Estas y otras características se expondrán en relación con los dibujos que se van a explicar, dando lugar a una caja mas sencilla estructuralmente que las convencionales del mismo tipo, de mas fácil montaje y lo que es mas importante, una mayor eficacia en el montaje sin necesidad de elementos adicionales iniciales como se requiere convencionalmente. These and other characteristics will be exposed in relation to the drawings that are going to be explained, giving rise to a structurally simpler box than conventional ones of the same type, of easier assembly and, more importantly, greater efficiency in assembly without need for additional initial elements as conventionally required.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

Como se puede ver en las figuras referidas, y en relación concretamente con la figura 1, la caja de la invención se obtiene a partir del desarrollo de una lámina de cartón, que puede ser cartón corrugado, de doble pared, o de cualquier otro tipo, presentando dos sectores (1) mayores, rectangulares y dos sectores (2) menores, que pueden ser también rectangulares o incluso cuadrangulares, intercalados con las anteriores, estando los sectores (1, 2) separados por sectores (3) de escasa anchura y en todos los casos de la misma altura. As can be seen in the aforementioned figures, and specifically in relation to Figure 1, the box of the invention is obtained from the development of a cardboard sheet, which can be corrugated cardboard, double wall, or any other type , presenting two sectors (1) larger, rectangular and two sectors (2) smaller, which can also be rectangular or even quadrangular, interspersed with the previous ones, the sectors (1, 2) being separated by sectors (3) of small width and in all cases of the same height.

Los sectores (1) van a constituir los laterales mayores de la caja, mientras que los sectores (2) van a constituir los laterales menores o testeros, en el caso de que la caja sea rectangular, ya que podría ser también cuadrangular, mientras que los sectores (3) de menor anchura, es decir que son de muy pequeña anchura, van a determinar cuatro lados a modo de chaflán en correspondencia con las esquinas de la caja, dando lugar a un contorno octogonal en el armado de ésta, como se representa en la figura 4. The sectors (1) will constitute the major laterals of the box, while the sectors (2) will constitute the minor laterals or tester, in the case that the box is rectangular, since it could also be quadrangular, while the sectors (3) of smaller width, that is to say that they are of very small width, will determine four sides as a chamfer in correspondence with the corners of the box, giving rise to an octagonal contour in the assembly of the latter, as represented in figure 4.

El fondo de la caja obtenido mediante plegado de los sectores (1, 2, 3), y cerrado el contorno mediante una solapa extrema (4), se consigue mediante parejas de solapas (5, 6), de manera que las solapas mayores (5) derivan de los sectores (1) correspondientes a las paredes laterales, mientras que las solapas menores (6) derivan de los sectores que van a formar los laterales menores. The bottom of the box obtained by folding the sectors (1, 2, 3), and closing the contour by means of an extreme flap (4), is achieved by pairs of flaps (5, 6), so that the major flaps ( 5) derive from the sectors (1) corresponding to the side walls, while the minor flaps (6) derive from the sectors that will form the minor sides.

Las solapas (5, 6) se pliegan para formar el fondo, de manera que inicialmente se pliegan las solapas mayores (5), cubriendo entre ambos lo que sería el fondo de la caja octogonal, como se representa en la figura 4, mientras que las 5 solapas (6) cubrirían parte de ese fondo determinando en éste una doble pared para dar consistencia al fondo, colaborando en el armado, dando estabilidad al conjunto e impidiendo que las solapas (5) salgan de su enclavamiento. The flaps (5, 6) are folded to form the bottom, so that initially the larger flaps (5) are folded, covering between them what would be the bottom of the octagonal box, as depicted in Figure 4, while The 5 flaps (6) would cover part of that fund, determining in it a double wall to give consistency to the bottom, collaborating in the assembly, giving stability to the assembly and preventing the flaps (5) from leaving its interlocking.

Para dicho enclavamiento, se ha previsto que las solapas (5), incorporen un borde libre escalonado, en el que se define un escalón (8) y una lengüeta (7), que afectan a la mitad de la longitud de dicho borde libre, y que en situación de montaje quedan encajadas entre sí, tal como muestra la figura 2, consiguiéndose así que el fondo quede perfectamente For said interlocking, it is provided that the flaps (5) incorporate a stepped free edge, in which a step (8) and a tongue (7) are defined, which affect half the length of said free edge, and that in mounting situation they are fitted together, as shown in figure 2, thus achieving that the bottom is perfectly

10 montado sin necesidad de elementos de sujeción complementarios, llevando a cabo finalmente el plegado de las solapas menores (6), que quedarán superpuestas a las solapas mayores (5), formando un doble fondo, aunque los elementos correspondientes a las solapas menores (6) serán en este caso de menor longitud. 10 mounted without the need for complementary fastening elements, finally carrying out the folding of the minor flaps (6), which will be superimposed on the major flaps (5), forming a double bottom, although the elements corresponding to the minor flaps (6 ) will be shorter in this case.

De esta forma, al plegarse las solapas menores (6) después de las solapas mayores (5), se evita que se desarme la caja. In this way, folding the minor flaps (6) after the major flaps (5) prevents the case from being disassembled.

15 En una variante de realización, la mostrada en la figura 5, la longitud de los testeros es idéntica a la de las gualderas, mientras que, las solapas menores (6) presentan en la zona media de su borde libre, respectivamente, una escotadura 15 In a variant embodiment, the one shown in Figure 5, the length of the heads is identical to that of the slats, while the smaller flaps (6) have a recess in the middle area of their free edge, respectively.

(9) y una lengüeta (10), que en situación de montaje, tal y como muestra la figura 6, quedan enrasadas, y acopladas a la perfección. (9) and a tongue (10), which in assembly situation, as shown in Figure 6, are flush, and perfectly coupled.
