Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 陳列用容器 発明の技術分野 この発明は、陳列用容器に関する。この発明の容器は、互いから分離すること ができる1つのフードとトレイを含んでいる。 発明の技術的背景 この発明は、消費者用商品を製造施設から流通機構の販売店の棚に移送する上 での問題点の解決を目指す容器である。この発明がなされる以前は、流通機構の 販売店の従業員は、通常は、商品を容器から取り出し、これらを消費者用に陳列 するために手操作で棚に乗せなければならなかった。この作業は、それぞれの容 器を開口して、収容された商品を上から順に1つずつ取り出さなければならない ので、かなりの時間を要する非実際的なプロセスであった。前記の商品は、特に それらが比較的重い(2、3Kgまたはそれ以上)場合には、容器から取り出すこ とが困難であった。移送媒体手段に通常含まれる容器の数または流通機構の大型 販売店の取扱い量の大きさを考慮すれば、ボックスを開いて商品をとりだしてボ ックスを空にすることはしばしば言い訳に値する作業量であった。 この問題を処理するために、幾つかのいわゆる陳列用容器がその後に設計され た。そのような容器は一般に、通常トレイと称される内側部と、通常フードと称 される外側部とを含んでいる。例えば、DE 39 40 872 A1 は開くことが容易なメ カニズムを有する容器に言及している。 すなわち、トレイとフードの間の接着点が容器の側部に設けられたフラップに 位置しており、前記フラップは、これを掴んで引っ張ることによってトレイとフ ードを分離することができる。次いで、すべての収容商品を陳列するトレイを残 してフードが取り外される。DE 39 40 872 A1 の問題点は、フードを取り外す前 にまずフラップを開かなければならないので、容器を開口する操作がかなり繁雑 なままであるという点にある。DE 39 40 872 A1 記載の開口操作は、いくつかの ステップを必要とし、繁雑な点に変わりがない。開口操作に多少のステップを要 するという事実は、一人が1つの容器を開口するのであるから、あまり関係がな いように思われるかもしれない。しかしながら、開口の対象となる容器の数が増 大すると、繁雑な開口操作そのものが主要な作業と化す。これまでの先行技術に おいては、容器を開口する単一の操作と、容器の移送中およびその取り扱い中に おける容器の最大限の堅牢性を維持し、容器の内容物の調査可能性の持続とを結 合したものは存在しない。この発明は、容器の堅牢性を損なうことなく、また、 容器の内容調査が可能な、単一ステップの開封メカニズムを備える陳列容器を提 供する。 この発明においては、フードは片手の動きでトレイから取り外される。ひとた びフードが取り外されると、商品を収容したままの下部のトレイは流通機構の販 売店の棚に載置することができる。これまでよりも迅速で、単純な開口プロセス は、従業員の日常作業のロードを大いに軽減するであろう。 発明の概要 上部壁(2)と、底部壁(3)と、両側部壁(4,4´)と、前部壁(5)と 、後部壁(6)とを有し、一部が重なるトレイ(7)とフード(8)を含む容器 であって、 前記フードは、前記トレイの前記前部壁の全体、および、オプションによって は前記の前部壁の全体と前記前部壁と接続する前記トレイの前記両側部壁の一部 とで構成される前記トレイの部分(9)においてのみ、前記トレイに恒久的に固 定されており、 前記の部分は脆弱化線(10)によって前記トレイの他部から区画される点に 特徴を有する容器(1) 図面の簡単な説明 第1図は、この発明の容器の斜視図である。 第2図は、この発明の容器のフードとトレイの側面図である。 第3図は、この発明の容器のフードを取り外した状態を示す。 第4、5、6、7図は、考えられる色々な部分を備えるトレイを示す。 詳細な説明 この発明の容器(1)は、トレイ(7)と、フード(8)とを含んでいる。以 下はこの発明を限定するものではないが、トレイとフードはともにカードボード またはカードボードを含む素材から作られるものとして言及される。トレイは、 容器によって収容される商品を載置する底部である。トレイは、したがって、容 器の底部壁(3)を提供する。フードは上部であり、トレイと収容商品のための カバー体を提供する。フードはしたがって、容器の上部壁(2)を提供する。フ ードとトレイは部分的に重なることが必須条件であり、したがって、トレイとフ ードの双方は容器の前部(5)、後部(6)および両側部壁(4,4´)を提供 する。 この発明の容器においては、フードがトレイ内に挿入できるか、または、フー ドがトレイを包囲する。容器のあらゆる部分を強化するために、フードがトレイ 内に挿入される方が、その逆よりも好ましい。トレイの高さ(h)は、フードが ひとたび取り外されると、高さの大きいトレイは収容商品を陳列したり手に取っ たりすることができなくなるので、できるだけ小さくなければならない。したが って、この好ましい実施例においてはトレイの高さの最大値は、フードの高さの 最大値(h´)よりも小さい。 この発明の容器の必須の特徴は、フードとトレイが、選択された部分(9)に おいてのみ、恒久的な態様で一体に固定される点である。トレイの前記部分は、 トレイの前部壁の全体で構成されており、オプションによっては、トレイの両側 部壁の一部が前部壁と接続してもよい。前記の部分は、脆弱化線(10)によっ てトレイの残りの部分から区画される。前記の部分は前記トレイの前部壁の全体 を含まなければならないので、前記の脆弱化線は、前部壁と底部壁とが一致する 縁部(11)を、その全長に亘って通過する。図6に示すこの発明の最も簡素な 実施例においては、前記部分は前記両側壁の一部を含まない。この実施例におい ては、前記脆弱化線はさらに前記前部壁と、前記両側部壁とが一致する縁部(1 2)の全体を通過する。 しかしながら、図4、5、7に示すこの発明の好ましい実施例においては、フ ードとトレイとがはっきりと分離することができ、前記部分はさらに両側壁の一 部を含む。これらの実施例においては、脆弱化線は前記縁部(12)と、前記底 部壁、前部壁および両側部壁(14,14´)が一致するコーナ一部(13,1 3´)を通過し、前記側壁に沿ってトレイの側部壁の両上縁部に達する。図5お よび7に示すこの発明のより好ましい実施例においては、前記部分が、両側部壁 の一部を含み、前記脆弱化線は、前記両側部壁に沿って傾斜しており、最も好ま しくは図7におけるように、弧状をなしている。 以下は決して発明の限定ではないが、脆弱化線は、レーザー、酸または、指定 域内にある容器の素材の脆弱化を達成できる当業者に知られたその他の物理的、 化学的、機械的手段のいずれかの援用によって得られる。前記脆弱化線は、あら かじめ付与したミシン目または標的域に破壊を生じるその他のいかなる機械的、 化学的脆弱化手段であってもよい。例えば、前記脆弱化線は、容器を構成する素 材に完全な、または部分的な穿孔をもたらすことができる。発明の限定ではない が、当業者に知られた種々の穿孔手段を脆弱化線を創造する手段として応用して 、容器の前記素材の外層、内層またはその両方を除去することができる。 容器の前記部分が両側部壁の一部を含むこの発明の好ましい実施例では、前記 部分の長さ(高さ)が両側部壁の全長(全高)の1/2より小さく、より好まし くは1/3より小さく、最も好ましくは1/4より小さいことが好ましい。実際 、容器の実施例は、梃の作用から便宜がもたらされる開口のしやすさと開口後に 、大きく取り除かれた部分からもたらされる陳列のし易さと内部商品を手にとる ことができる便宜との妥協の産物である。 前記トレイと前記フードが前記の部分においてのみ恒久的に一体に固定される ことが必須条件である。前記の恒久的な固定は、当業者が利用できる多数の手段 によって実現が可能であり、前記手段には接着または物理的な接続が含まれる。 「恒久的」という用語は、この場合、容器の開口に対する固定抵抗力を意味して おり、その固定抵抗力によって、前記フードが取り外された後も、前記フードと 前記トレイが前記部分において固定されたままの状態を維持する。したがって、 ここにいう「恒久的」固定とは、脆弱化線よりも強い固定のことである。 取扱い中の衝撃に対する容器の抵抗力を増強するためには、トレイとフードが 非恒久的な態様で、前記の恒久的な固定部分以外の部分においてさらに固定され ることが好ましい。ここで用いられるように、非恒久的な固定とは、フードが取 り外されるときに破壊するような固定であり、脆弱化線と同程度であるかまたは これよりも強い固定を意味する。好ましくは、前記の非恒久的な固定は、両側部 壁および/または後部壁に位置付けられる。再度、当業者にとってはその様な非 恒久的な固定を実現するために色々な手段を利用することが可能である。例えば 、フードの後部壁または両側部壁に設けられる複数の小さな接着点が非恒久的な 固定として利用される。3つの側部で切られており第4の側部においてトレイに 蝶着されたトレイ片を、容器の後部でフード壁内の開口部に押し込むことができ る。非恒久的な固定として利用されるフラップによって、取扱い中および移送中 にフードとトレイを一体に支持することが可能である。 図3に示すように、この発明の容器は、フードをその後部壁の近傍で掴んで容 器の前方に回動するという単一の操作で開口する。フードが前方に回動されるの で、この操作が前記脆弱化線を強制的に破壊し、それによって、恒久的な固定部 分をトレイから弛める。前部を持たないトレイがこのようにして得られ、幾つか の実施例においては、収容商品を陳列し、かつ、手に取ることが最も便利な高さ の低い両側壁が得られる。フードが回動されるので、オプションで採用する非恒 久的な固定部分もまた破壊される。容器の構造がフードの取り外しに必要な努力 を最小化しているので、開口操作はこのように容易でかつ迅速である。 この発明の好ましい実施例においては、前記フードは、前記の恒久的固定部分 のほぼ反対側の位置、例えば上部壁または好ましくは後部壁に位置する掴み手段 (15)を含む。前記手段は、フィンガートラップ、ハンドルまたはグリップで 構成される。 この発明の容器は包装済みの複数の商品を収容することを意図する。そのよう な商品は、典型的には、ビン、缶、裸のパック、袋、香料袋(sachets)、バッグ 、函等である。ひとたびフードとトレイが上記の態様で分離されてトレイが流通 販売店の棚の上に載置されれば、消費者は商品を確認して、手に取って眺めるこ とができる。Description Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a display container. The container of the present invention includes a single food and tray that can be separated from each other. Technical Background of the Invention The present invention is a container which aims to solve the problems in transferring consumer goods from a manufacturing facility to shelves of a store of a distribution organization. Prior to the invention, employees at distribution outlets typically had to remove goods from containers and manually put them on shelves for display to consumers. This operation was a time-consuming and impractical process, since each container had to be opened and the contained goods had to be removed one by one from the top. Said products were difficult to remove from the container, especially if they were relatively heavy (2, 3 kg or more). Taking into account the number of containers normally included in the transport medium or the volume handled by the large distributors of the distribution mechanism, opening a box and removing goods and emptying the box is often an excuse for work. there were. To address this problem, several so-called display containers were subsequently designed. Such containers generally include an inner portion, commonly referred to as a tray, and an outer portion, commonly referred to as a hood. For example, DE 39 40 872 A1 refers to a container with an easy-to-open mechanism. That is, the point of adhesion between the tray and the hood is located on a flap provided on the side of the container, and the flap can separate the tray and the hood by grasping and pulling it. The hood is then removed leaving the tray displaying all the stored goods. The problem with DE 39 40 872 A1 is that the operation of opening the container remains quite complicated, since the flap must first be opened before the hood can be removed. The opening operation described in DE 39 40 872 A1 requires several steps and remains complicated. The fact that the opening operation requires some steps may seem less relevant since one person is opening one container. However, as the number of containers to be opened increases, the complicated opening operation itself becomes a major task. In the prior art to date, a single operation of opening a container and maintaining the maximum robustness of the container during the transfer and handling of the container and maintaining the possibility of examining the contents of the container. There is no binding. The present invention provides a display container having a single-step opening mechanism that allows the contents of the container to be inspected without impairing the robustness of the container. In the present invention, the hood is removed from the tray by one-handed movement. Once the hood is removed, the lower tray, containing the merchandise, can be placed on the shelves of the retail outlet of the distribution mechanism. A quicker and simpler opening process than before will greatly reduce the daily work load of employees. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It has a top wall (2), a bottom wall (3), both side walls (4, 4 '), a front wall (5) and a rear wall (6), partly overlapping. A container comprising a tray (7) and a hood (8), wherein the hood connects to the entire front wall of the tray and optionally to the entire front wall and the front wall. Only at a part (9) of the tray constituted by a part of the side walls of the tray, the part is permanently fixed to the tray, and the part of the tray is weakened by a line of weakness (10). A container characterized by being distinguished from other parts (1) Brief description of the drawings FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a container of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a side view of the hood and tray of the container of the present invention. FIG. 3 shows a state in which the hood of the container of the present invention is removed. Figures 4, 5, 6, and 7 show a tray with various possible parts. DETAILED DESCRIPTION The container (1) of the present invention includes a tray (7) and a hood (8). In the following, but not limiting the invention, the tray and the hood are both referred to as being made from cardboard or a material containing cardboard. The tray is the bottom on which the goods contained by the container are placed. The tray thus provides the bottom wall (3) of the container. The hood is at the top and provides a tray and a cover for contained goods. The hood thus provides the upper wall (2) of the container. It is imperative that the hood and tray partially overlap, so both the tray and the hood provide the front (5), rear (6) and side walls (4, 4 ') of the container. In the container of the present invention, the hood can be inserted into the tray, or the hood surrounds the tray. It is preferred that the hood be inserted into the tray to strengthen all parts of the container, and vice versa. The height (h) of the tray should be as small as possible because once the hood is removed, the larger tray will not be able to display or pick up the stored goods. Thus, in this preferred embodiment, the maximum tray height is less than the maximum hood height (h '). An essential feature of the container according to the invention is that the hood and the tray are fixed together in a permanent manner only at the selected part (9). Said part of the tray is made up of the whole of the front wall of the tray, and optionally, some of the side walls of the tray may be connected to the front wall. Said part is delimited from the rest of the tray by a line of weakness (10). Since the part must cover the entire front wall of the tray, the line of weakness passes through the edge (11) where the front and bottom walls coincide, over its entire length. . In the simplest embodiment of the invention shown in FIG. 6, said part does not include part of said side walls. In this embodiment, the line of weakness further passes through the entire edge (12) where the front wall and the side walls coincide. However, in the preferred embodiment of the invention shown in FIGS. 4, 5 and 7, the hood and tray can be clearly separated, said part further including a part of the side walls. In these embodiments, the line of weakness marks the edge (12) and the corner portions (13, 13 ') where the bottom, front and side walls (14, 14') coincide. And passes along said side walls to both upper edges of the side walls of the tray. In a more preferred embodiment of the invention shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, said part comprises a part of the side walls, said weakening line being inclined along said side walls, most preferably As shown in FIG. 7, it has an arc shape. The following is by no means a limitation of the invention, but the line of weakness may be laser, acid or other physical, chemical, or mechanical means known to those skilled in the art that can achieve weakening of the material of the container within the designated area. Obtained by any of the following. The line of weakness may be a pre-applied perforation or any other mechanical or chemical means of weakening that causes a break in the target area. For example, the line of weakness can cause a complete or partial perforation of the material comprising the container. By way of non-limiting example, various perforation means known to those skilled in the art can be applied as a means of creating a line of weakness to remove the outer layer, the inner layer, or both, of the material of the container. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, wherein said part of the container comprises a part of the side walls, the length (height) of said part is less than half the total length (total height) of the side walls, more preferably 1%. It is preferably smaller than / 3, most preferably smaller than 1/4. In fact, the embodiment of the container is a compromise between the ease of opening resulting from leverage and the ease of display resulting from the largely removed parts after opening and the convenience of being able to pick up the internal goods. It is a product of It is an essential condition that the tray and the hood are permanently fixed only in the above-mentioned part. Said permanent fixation can be achieved by a number of means available to those skilled in the art, including means of gluing or physical connection. The term "permanent" in this case means a fixed resistance to the opening of the container, by means of which the hood and the tray are fixed in the part even after the hood is removed. Keep it as it is. Therefore, “permanent” fixation here is fixation stronger than the line of weakness. In order to increase the resistance of the container to shocks during handling, it is preferred that the tray and the hood are further fixed in a non-permanent manner at parts other than the permanent fixing parts mentioned above. As used herein, non-permanent fixation is fixation that breaks when the hood is removed and means fixation that is comparable to or greater than the line of weakness. Preferably, said non-permanent fixation is located on the side walls and / or the rear wall. Again, various means are available to those skilled in the art to achieve such non-permanent fixation. For example, a plurality of small bonding points provided on the rear wall or both side walls of the hood are used as a non-permanent fixing. A piece of tray cut on three sides and hinged to the tray on the fourth side can be pushed into the opening in the hood wall at the rear of the container. The flap, which is used as a non-permanent fixing, allows the hood and tray to be supported together during handling and transport. As shown in FIG. 3, the container of the present invention is opened by a single operation of grasping the hood near the rear wall and rotating the container forward. As the hood is pivoted forward, this action forcibly breaks the line of weakness, thereby loosening the permanent securing portion from the tray. A tray without a front is thus obtained, and in some embodiments, low side walls that are most convenient to display and pick up the stored goods. As the hood is pivoted, the optional non-permanent fixings employed are also destroyed. The opening operation is thus easy and quick, since the construction of the container minimizes the effort required to remove the hood. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the hood comprises gripping means (15) located at a location substantially opposite the permanent fastening part, for example at the top wall or preferably at the rear wall. Said means comprises a finger trap, handle or grip. The container of the present invention is intended to contain a plurality of packaged goods. Such commodities are typically bottles, cans, naked packs, bags, sachets, bags, boxes and the like. Once the food and tray are separated in the manner described above and the tray is placed on a shelf in a retail outlet, the consumer can view the product and pick it up for viewing.
