Denmark-Danmark (DK) (7¾) Oy Borenius & Co Ab (5 * 0 Assembled box especially for lozenges, etc. with a dosing opening - Hopfällbar ask, särskilt för pastiller osv. Och med en doseringsöppning

The invention relates to a collapsible box, in particular for lozenges, etc., having an upper side field with an emptying opening normally covered by an internal pusher, which pusher can be partially pulled out to expose the emptying opening, the pusher being connected at its outer edge closed by a fixed end field section.

Boxes of this type can normally be operated with one hand, whereby to open the emptying opening the box can be held in the hand and e.g. with a thumb acts on the push field to move it towards the open position, then the desired part of the box contents is poured into the other hand and the box is closed again. This push field is securely controlled by the sensation that it is hingedly connected to the box via said flap field, so that it is well secured against displacement or buckling when used with one finger, and this hinge connection also results in the push field being advantageously made as part of the blank. the box is erected.

In this context, it should already be noted that the above-mentioned words "top side field M and 'end field part' do not, of course, in any way mean limiting the orientation or proportions of the 2 61160 boxes, as the presentation is only facilitated if the box is generally considered to have a top side, where the discharge opening is located and below which the pushing field is arranged so that it can be operated from the front end of the box. In this way, the fields at the bottom, side and back of the box are also defined.

The most significant of the problems previously associated with this type of box are the control of the push field so that it is somewhat flat in the box against the underside of the top side field, i.e. without consuming space in the box and without supporting the box contents during movement, and the push field must be pulled out too far. the main object of the invention is to provide a box in which these problems are solved in a simple manner.

According to the invention, this is implemented in such a way that the box is arranged in the manner mentioned in the identifying part of the claim. Said side flap of the push field - suitably on both sides of the field - may simply be a part of the box blank in one piece, which can both keep the free inner end of the push field pressed against the lower side of the upper side field and form a push field pull-out response. The side flap is bent down on the side of the box so that it does not take up space in the box itself.

According to the invention, the side flap or flap can be used in two different ways to stabilize the pushing of the pusher into the lower side of the upper side, namely in the manner mentioned in claim 2 at the height of the top edge, which at the same time by means of the protruding front edge of said edge recess forms a desired pull-out response, or as mentioned in claim 3 the side flap or flaps may be folded so as to slidably press into the bottom field completely outside the box side field. below the top side field of the box without the side flap being able to press into the contents of the box, but still can form a pull-out response by pressing into the inner corner of the fixed front main field of the box.

As will be apparent from the following, the box according to the invention can be manufactured in such a way that it has numerous other advantages in terms of mechanical erection, filling and closing, as well as the so-called with regard to the provision of a warranty closure, in which case it is a closure which requires the parts of the box to be broken in order to open the filled box.

The invention will be explained in more detail below on the basis of the accompanying drawings.

Figure 9 shows a third embodiment when the box is partially erected.

Fig. 10 shows a fourth embodiment in a corresponding figure.

Figures 11 to H show, as different figures, a fifth embodiment of the box.

The box blank shown in Figure 1 has an upper side field 2, a bottom field 4, a rear end field 6, two inner side fields 8 and 10, two float fields 12 and 14, two front end strips, both designated 16, 4 61160, and a push field 18 with an opening 20. The sides 6 are provided with corner locking strips 22, which are intended in a known manner to cooperate with the locking notches 24 in the inner side fields 8 and 10. The pushing field 18 is connected to the bottom field 4 by a terminal flap portion 26 and its free end side edges have side flaps 28, the dimension of which in the transverse direction is smaller than the dimension of the side fields 8 ... 14. At the free end of the upper field 2 there is a protruding end strip 30, and between the other said fields there are fold lines shown in broken lines, but between the upper field 2 and the end strip 30 there is an open tear line 32. In addition there is a limited field 34 at the outer end of the upper side field 2. 36. At the bottom left, it is shown that the field 34 has a gripping strip 38, which will be explained in more detail below. It will also be explained in more detail below that the inner side fields 8 and 10 are provided with a recess 40 having a steep leading edge 42 in the outer edge region of these inner side fields.

The box blank is first erected as shown in Fig. 2, the side and end fields bordering the bottom field 4 being bent upwards and fastened on the one hand so that the corner locking strips 22 and the locking notches 24 in the inner side fields 8 and 10 are locked together in a known manner, and the front end strips 16 and the end flap portion 26 and the push field 18 are folded up without any gluing or any other fastening between the end flap portion 26 and the front end strips 16. In this position, the box folded upwards is ready to move under a filling device which, as shown, does not fill the desired contents into the box.

Thereafter, the carton blank is filled to move the container-closing device, which is not shown in more detail sees to it that the thrust field 18 shall be computed over the filled box (Figure 3), and then yläsivukenttä 2 will be calculated on the box. Finally, the outer side fields 12 and 14 protruding from the upper side field 2 and the end strip 30 are folded down, previously the adhesive is placed in the blank so that the fields 12 and 14 and the end strip 30 then adhere to the outer sides 8 and 10 and the end flap portion 26, respectively. as it appears.

When applying the adhesive, care is taken that the outer side fields 12 and 14 only become glued to the inner side fields 8 and 10 along their lower edge, whereby the adhesive is applied either to the edge area A below the inner side fields or to the outer edge of the outer side fields 12 and 14. to area B, so that no gluing occurs in the upper area where the side flaps 28 projecting from the push field 18 are folded down at the upper edge of the inner side fields 8 and 10, such lowering automatically taking place in the step where the outer side fields 12 and 14 were folded down. The side flaps 28 are then folded down around the upper edge of the recess 40 of the respective fields 12 and 14, so that the pushing field 18 will move freely back and forth in the longitudinal direction of the box and at the same time receive support from said upper edges 40 so that the strip as a whole

However, the pushing field 18 cannot move due to the fact that the end-flap part 26 is glued to the end strip 30 and thus cannot turn outwards. The box cannot thus be opened without this being noticed.

If it is desired to open the box, a gripping strip 38 is gripped, which protrudes slightly from the front edge above the box, and the entire field 34 between the tear lines 32 and 36 is torn off, after which the box appears in the form shown in Fig. 5. Along the upper edge there are slightly protruding teeth 44 which remain at the upper edge of the terminal strip 30, which terminal strip as such is only a passive part glued to the terminal flap part 26. When the field 34 is torn off, the upper side of the front end of the pushing field 18 is revealed, so that the pushing field can now be pushed forward, e.g.

Fig. 6 shows the box at the beginning of the opening phase, with the leading edge of the opening 20 in the push field 18 just being exposed in front of the edge portion 46 exposed in the upper side field 2 when the field 34 is torn open. Fig. 7 shows the box fully opened with the whole or almost the entire opening 20 in front of said leading edge 46 so that the contents or part of the box can be poured out of the opening 20. As shown in Fig. 7, the pusher side flaps 28 are pulled forward so far along the edge of the recess 40 that they press on the upright edge portion 42 at their front end , in other words, clearly indicate that the box is now fully open and otherwise prevent the push field from being pulled out too far. After use, the box is closed simply by pushing the push field inwards lightly by pressing the leading edge of the protruding end flap part 26 inwards.

It will be appreciated that the side strips 28 support the push field 18 in the box, and that these side strips at the same time form the pull-out responses of the push field 18. The tear-off box 34 acts as a warranty lock after the box has been filled and closed, as the box can only be opened after this box has been torn off. The box is otherwise well suited for mechanical erection, filling and sealing by applying the method steps described.

The box can be locked without using the terminal strip 30, because e.g. by using an adhesive spot in the middle of the field 34, this field can be attached to the upper side of the push field 18. To open the box, either the field 34 can be torn off by breaking the adhesive joint, or by pressing vertically along the tear line 36, the field 34 can be detached from its connection to the top side field 2, after which the box 34 can be opened so that the field 34 remains in the push field 18. If the warranty is blocked fields 30 and 34 form without a terminal strip 30, and field 34 can be stamped off.

When the terminal strip 30 is used, the tear-off line 32 may possibly extend downwards along this strip as shown in Fig. 8, the end strip 30 'being provided with a notch 48, the upper edge of which acts as a gripping edge to tear off the field 34 and the respective upper part of the terminal strip 30'.

Fig. 8 further shows that the opening 20 in the pushing field can be positioned so that when this field is pulled forward it moves forward under the special pouring opening 30 in the upper side field 2.

Fig. 9 shows another embodiment in which the upper side field 2 is hinged to the bottom field 4 from the sides via the side field 8 ', and in which the pushing field 18' is unilaterally supported by a single projecting side flap 28 '. By folding the top side field 2 downwards and further folding the free side field 12 'of this top side field downwards for gluing along the lower area A of the bottom field 10' projecting from the bottom upwards, the box blank can be open at its rear end, filling it this way. The box is shown without a warranty lock, but of course such a lock can be made in exactly the same way as shown in Figures 1 ... 8, 7 61160

The side strip 28, 28 'projecting from the push field 18, 18' may support the push field other than that it is itself supported at the top of the inner side field 8, 10, 10 ', namely by being folded down to press into the bottom field 4, as shown in Fig. 10. , in which the side strips are marked 28 ". It is immediately seen that these side strips folded downwards inside the inner side fields 10 'and 8' to extend completely to the bottom field 4, on the other hand, will support or support the push field 18" so as to press down on the bottom side 2 , when the box is closed, and on the other hand form a pull-out response of the pusher 18 "so that their front edges will press into the inner side of the front end of the box when the pusher is pushed out. In this case, the side strips are completely outside the side surfaces of the box.

The box shown in Figure 10 can, of course, be modified so that the second side of the push field 18 ", shown on the right in Figure 10, has a fully downwardly extending side strip 28", while the other side has a shorter protruding side strip (cf. Figures 1-7). , which press at the top of the inner field 10 ".

The bottom-pressing side strip of Figure 10 could also be used in the box shown in Figures 1-7 in accordance with the invention, replacing the small side tabs 28 with wider strips 28 ", making the edge recess 40 unnecessary. However, rapid mechanical handling of the box to erect, fill and close the box can cause problems. folding the wide strips 28 "and guiding them downwardly internally in the box as the push field 18 is lowered to a position corresponding to that shown in Figure 10. However, the box can be constructed to overcome this difficulty, and Figs. 11 to 13 show an example of this, the corresponding parts being indicated by the same reference numerals as in Figs.

The bottom field 4 of the box blank shown in Fig. 11 is laterally hinged to the top side field 2 via the side field 8 ', and the pusher field 18 and its end flap 26 protrude from the end of the top side field 2, but with a flap portion 27 having the same function as the end flap part 26. The blank is prepared for erection by folding the push field 18 and the end flap part 26 backwards along the fold line a, 8 61160 of the flap parts 26 and 27 and lowering them flat against the upper side field 2 as shown by the dashed line area. The blank is then ready for the initial erection, as shown in Figure 12. In other words, so that the top side field strip temporarily serves as the bottom of the box. When the side fields 8 'and 10' are folded up, the side flaps 28 "automatically fold up and settle inside the box, and once the respective end strips are folded up and in, the box can be filled and then closed by folding the bottom field 4 down and folding the side and end strips down and In the first erection, the end closure strips 16 are folded inwards, and the folded end flap 26, 27 is folded upwards against the outside of the inwardly folded end strips 16, but without gluing, while closing the front end strip 30 'is glued to the outer end 26.

Optionally, the box may be folded into the properly inverted position shown in Figure 13, with the rear end strips not closed so that the box can be filled from the rear end and then closed permanently.

When the box is opened, the tear-off line 36 is broken by pressing into the field 34 inside this line, after which the box can be handled in exactly the same way as described above, so that the push field 18 can be pulled out by turning out the folded end flap 26, 27 and the front end strip 30 *, the field 34 remains glued to the top of the push field 18.

A particular possibility of the invention is based on the fact that, as shown in Fig. 14, the blank can be folded flat by folding the side field 10 'inwards and then flatly folding the bottom field 4 inwards around this field and the inner side field without folding up or inwards the different end strips. in the box factory, a flat folded blank can be formed, which only then has to be erected in a rectangular tubular shape and then closed at both ends during the filling phase, whereby the machine equipment is correspondingly simplified.

When the flat blank is erected, the side flap 28 "shown in Fig. 14 is folded upwards so that, due to its natural resilience, it presses into the erected inner side field 8 'and thus does not pose a risk of contact with the contents of the box. On the opposite side of the box The side flap 28 "folded inwards with the 10 'will be so strongly pre-folded that it will not follow the vertical position of the side field 10' when the blank is erected, but will insert slightly in the box erected so that it may come into contact with the contents of the box when the pusher 18 is pulled out. For this reason, the side flap 28 "can suitably be completely omitted from the push field on the side which presses into the folded side field 10 '.

The purpose of Fig. 14 is otherwise to illustrate that there is no need for any opening in the push field 18 'in cooperation with the discharge opening of the upper side field 2, since it may be sufficient to pull the free end edge of the push field so that the upper side field 2 discharge opening or the edge of such an opening is exposed.

As mentioned above, it is not expedient to make the box blank according to Fig. 14 with side flaps 28 "on both sides, since such a flap cannot easily be completely folded again under the sharply folded flap 101 when the pipe blank is erected. for natural reasons, an edge-supported flap 28 is used (cf. Fig. 1 or 9), but this is made possible by applying the second folding method shown in Figs. 15 and 16. The blank shown in these figures has a narrow side flap above the flap 28 "compared to the blank in Fig. H. 28 *, and when folding, the bottom field 4 is first folded down, whereby the flap 28 'will protrude beyond the outer edge of the side field 12' as shown in Fig. 16. When the side field 10 'is then folded as shown by the arrows, and close to its outer edge is attached to the upper side of the field 12', the flap 28 'is forced to fold at the same time and remain unattached to the encountering box parts. The blank was thus not brought into its flat tubular shape, and when it is then erected tubular during filling, the flap 28 "is forced to be folded upwards, as in Fig. 14. The flap 28 'is also forced to be folded upwards because it is located between the side fields 10' and 12 ', so it will remain in place completely as shown in Figure 7, regardless of its tendency to fold back inward into the box. Figure 16 further shows that the flap 28 'does not necessarily need to be inserted into the recess at the edge of the side field 12' because the flap 28 "forms a push field pull-out response.
