Description

Container {CONTAINER}

The present invention relates to a container according to the preamble of the claims.

Such containers are known to be used, in particular, in fast food restaurants. These containers are used to hold food, for example, food such as sandwiches or hamburgers. After the sandwich or hamburger is placed in the bottom of the container, the container is closed and the closed container is delivered to the customer.

Rather than eating your own fast food at a fast food restaurant, it's common for you to take your food to another place or eat it on the way. Thus, the container must not only be able to fill easily and quickly, but also to be able to carry food safely (especially, not to spill) and to handle food while eating.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a container using as simple a construction as possible while meeting all these conditions.

This object is achieved by a container comprising the features of claim 1 of the claims.

The present invention is characterized in that at least one sidewall region of the bottom is pivotable with respect to the edge of the bottom region connecting the sidewall region and the bottom region. Thus, in particular, the side wall area is pivotable between the upwardly folded state and the outwardly or downwardly folded state in the form of a box for carrying food. In the downwardly folded state, that is, the side wall area can be especially aligned with the bottom, it is very easy to put food in or out of the bottom, which can reach the bottom in the vertical direction from above. Not only that, but the bottom side can be reached by the side wall folded downward.

More preferably, two, three or four sidewall regions are pivotable about the edge of the bottom region connecting the respective sidewall region and the bottom region. On the other hand, this offers the additional possibility of accessing the inside of the bottom. On the other hand, it may be assumed that each outwardly folded sidewall area in the outwardly folded state will be aligned with the bottom area, or may only assume a slightly inclined angle with respect to the bottom area. In this case, the bottom region and the outwardly folded sidewall region form a so-called food tray, the surface of which is the surface of the bottom region plus the surface of the outwardly folded sidewall region.

"Tray" is the maximum surface where the entire bottom can be folded flat, especially when the entire sidewall area of the bottom can be pivotable or folded relative to the bottom area. As the formed trays become larger, it is easier to prevent some of the food, such as dressings, from falling out or spilling out of the container.

The connecting lug is preferably provided between two adjacent sidewall areas. Such connection lugs offer various advantages. On the one hand, the connecting lugs can assist in transferring the movement of the side wall area while being pivoted inward or outward towards the adjacent side wall area, so that the connecting lug also participates in the movement. Secondly, the lug seals the contact edge between two adjacent sidewall areas in a position where at least a portion of the bottom overlaps, thereby preventing food from falling out or spilling outwards. Thirdly, the connecting lugs at the bottom in the unfolded tray-shaped position enlarge the surface of the tray. A connecting lug is also formed, in particular, on each corner where the two side wall areas of the bottom are adjacent.

The connecting lug preferably has a predetermined fold line along a dividing line between two adjacent sidewall areas. This helps to connect the connecting lugs inward when pivoting the side wall area relative to the bottom.

In the substantially box-shaped state, it is particularly preferable that the connecting lug protrudes toward the inside of the bottom. Therefore, the container can be closed better because the connecting lugs do not protrude outward from the bottom. Moreover, the connecting lugs inside the bottom can perform other advantageous tasks.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a recess is formed on the outer edge of the connecting lug, ie the edge of the connecting lug facing away from the bottom region. In the case where the corresponding side wall area is pivoted upwardly corresponding to the bottom area, the connecting lug projects into the bottom and the recess is formed therein. The recess may now function to securely hold the article, for example food, contained in the container.

More specifically, the recesses can be arranged symmetrically in an approximately intermediate region of the outer edge of the connecting lug, preferably with a dividing line between two adjacent sidewall regions. This has the effect that when the connecting lugs protrude into the bottom, one of the two parts of the recess is positioned on top of the other one on the opposite side of the dividing line, thereby forming an enlarged recess in this way.

In addition, the recess is preferably located at approximately half the height of the sidewall region relative to the bottom region when the sidewall region is pivoted upward relative to the bottom region. If the food is subsequently kept safe by this recess, it is particularly advantageous because heated or hot food is kept at a distance from the bottom region. As a result, there remains an air gap between the food and the bottom region that insulates the food relative to the bottom region. Thus, the food is kept hot for a long time and the handling of the container for the user is also improved.

The size of the bottom area preferably corresponds approximately to the size of the cover area, or at least partially smaller than the cover area. Therefore, the container becomes easy to use especially in the closed state which a lid part covers a bottom part.

It is preferable that the three flanks of the lid part are fixed to each other, so that they are each formed substantially perpendicular to the lid area. This makes the lid particularly stable and also has a box-like structure so that the lid can overlap with the bottom.

In order to design the cover part as permanently as possible as possible, it is preferable to bond two adjacent flanks of the cover part together. Alternatively, other kinds of concatenations are likewise possible.

In another improved variant of the invention, at least one flank of the cover has a fold along the dividing line between the connecting edge connecting the flank and the covering area and the connecting edge connecting the flank to an adjacent flank. have. This allows the corresponding flanks to be folded or pivoted in a flat position in the cover area, thus reducing the space required for them.

It is further preferred that the two opposing flanks of the cover part have a fold line along the dividing line between the connecting edge connecting each of the flanks and the cover area and the connecting edge connecting each flank and the adjacent flank. The advantage is that two opposing flanks are pivotable with a flat lay on the cover area, the flank transfers this movement through the fold line to the central flank, so that the flank is also folded and flat on the cover area. To be placed. Thus, the lid as a whole can be folded in a flat state with all of its components laid flat on top of each other. Therefore, this also uses the bottom which can be folded flat, so that the whole material used for the container can be folded in a flat state, and there is an advantage that many containers can be stacked in a space-saving manner. Thus, this provides a tremendous advantage in logistics.

One method of forming the fold line includes a method of forming a perforation in the material of the container at the corresponding position of the container. This can be done more technically, ie making it easier to predetermine the extension of the fold line and also more easily at the line due to the weakened material.

In order to facilitate the transport of the articles contained in the container, it is advantageous if the container can be folded in a closed state, in which the bottom is in a box shape and the lid part overlaps the bottom. This has the advantage that the cover portion overlaps the bottom to prevent the pivotable sidewall area of the bottom from pivoting toward the bar tip, thus keeping the bottom in a box shape. The articles contained in the container can be transported in this manner, eliminating the risk of inadvertently opening the container.

More preferably, the flank of the lid part is in a state substantially parallel to the side wall of the box-shaped bottom part and arrange | positioned on the outer side in the state in which the container was closed. In this way, the flanks can double the corresponding sidewalls of the bottom, leaving the air gap inside the double walls. These two factors significantly improve the insulation of the container.

Another advantage of the design is that the side wall area is connected to the first edge of the covering area and at the opposite edge the first edge is connected to the bottom area. Thus, an axis on which the lid can pivot relative to the bottom is located on the upper edge of the side wall of the box-shaped bottom. The lid can thus be pivoted particularly easily in an overlapping state with the bottom.

In another advantageous variant, at least one flank of the cover part has a grip recess. This allows the bottom to be gripped with at least one finger in the closed and closed state so that the bottom can be maintained even while the lid is pivoted upward relative to the bottom.

It is particularly advantageous here that the grip recess is formed at the end of the flank which is located in the vicinity of the edge connecting the lid and the bottom. Thus, the grip recess is positioned as close as possible to the pivot axis connecting the lid and the bottom, which is particularly advantageous when handling the container, in particular when pivoting upwards of the lid.

Chamfering the corners on the corresponding flanks can be technically simple and more aesthetically pleasing.

Another improvement of the container according to the invention is that at least one side wall of the bottom comprises a closing lug which can be inserted into the closing opening or the closing pocket with the container closed. The closing lugs and the closing openings or closing pockets certainly limit the freedom of movement of the lid relative to the bottom in the closed state of the container, thus allowing the container to remain closed more reliably.

The container may also be made of an integral blank. Likewise possible, and also for variants where the lid and bottom are formed separately first, the integrated blank offers the advantage of easier and faster production. The blank here may for example be produced by a punch tool.

It is also possible to simplify the production in that the container can be formed from one symmetrical blank. In general, a number of different materials can be used as the container material, as well as the material that can be folded. In order to simplify the handling and manufacture of the container, as the collapsible material, for example, plastic, paper, cardboard, or other cellulose material is preferable.

Hereinafter, two preferred embodiments of the container according to the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 shows a blank for a container according to the invention.

2 is a perspective view of one embodiment of a container according to the present invention having a bottom folded sidewall;

3 is a perspective view of the container shown in FIG. 2 with the sidewalls pivoted upwards of the bottom;

4 is a vertical sectional view of the container at the position indicated by line IV-IV of FIG.

5 is a perspective view of the container shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 in a closed position;

6 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of a container according to the present invention;

Like components are designated by like reference numerals throughout the drawings.

1 is a top view of a flat blank 1 of a preferred embodiment of a container 2 according to the invention. The blank is preferably composed of a collapsible material such as paper or cardboard. The blank may be a punched out portion of the material.

In the smallest area, the blank 1 shown in FIG. 1 forms a fourth edge, for example a pivot edge 3. Hereinafter, for convenience of description, the fourth embodiment will be described as the pivot edge 3 to explain the present embodiment. In the top view shown in FIG. 1, the blank portion of the left side from the pivot edge 3 represents the lid 4 of the container 2, while the part of the right side of the pivot edge 3 is the bottom 5. ). In the embodiment shown in the figure, the container 2 is formed integrally with the lid part 4 and the bottom part 5 respectively being part of the integral blank 1.

The lid part 4 comprises a lid area 6 which is basically rectangular, here in particular square, which later forms the top or the lid area of the container 2 in the closed state of the container 2. do. The cover region 6 is pivotally connected to the bottom 5 via a pivot edge 3 which is one of the lateral edges of the cover region 6. Here the pivot edge 3 functions as a pivot axis. At three different edges 7, 8, 9, the covering area 6 is flanked 10, 11, 12, ie two mutually opposite lateral flanks 10, 12 and exactly a pivot edge 3. It is connected to the center flank 11 opposite to). The two lateral flanks 10, 12 each have an adhesive lug 13, 14, which are separated from the central flank 11 by cutouts 15, 16.

The bottom part 5 has a central bottom area 17, which is also rectangular, in particular here square. At the four edges 18, 19, 20, 21, the bottom region 17 is connected to each side wall region 22, 23, 24, 25, so that the bottom region 17 and the side wall region 22, 23, 24 and 25 are formed in a cross shape as a whole.

A connecting lug 26 is formed between each adjacent pair of side wall areas. Each connecting lug 26 has a substantially triangular shape in which the two sidewall edges 27, 28 contact adjacent sidewall areas 22, 23, 24, 25 and the connecting lug 26, and the outer The edge 29 faces away from the bottom region 17. In its central region, a recess 30 is formed on the outer edge 29. These recesses, which are approximately semicircular here, are arranged symmetrically in two adjacent sidewall areas 22, 23, 24, 25.

Cutting cutouts 31, 32 may be formed, respectively, in such a way that the sidewall edges 27, 29 facilitate the folding of the connecting lugs 26 along the sidewall edges 27, 28. Further, each connecting lug 26 is formed along a dividing line between adjacent sidewall areas 22, 23, 24, 25 with a predetermined fold line 33, the extension of which is to be determined in particular by drilling. Can be.

In the illustrated embodiment, each sidewall region 22, 23, 24, 25 can be pivoted relative to the bottom region 17 through joint edges 18, 19, 20, 21. The side wall area 25 closest to the cover part 4 is in contact with the bottom area 17 through the edge 21, while the edge of the side wall area 25 opposite the edge 21 is covered by the cover part 4. ) And a pivot edge (3) pivotally connecting the bottom (5).

It can be seen that small stepped portions 34 are formed on both sides of the blank in the pivot edge 3 region. Although the stepped portion 34 is inclined here, the vertical dimension of the bottom region 17 is slightly smaller than the corresponding dimension of the lid region 6. This is an advantage later when pushing the bottom 5 into the lid 4 in the closed state of the container 2.

2 shows a perspective view of a container 2 according to the invention, which is formed from the blank shown in FIG. 1. For this purpose, the two laterally opposed flanks 10, 12 of the lid 4 are pivoted by 90 ° relative to the lid region 6. As a result, the adhesive lugs 13, 14 are pivoted by 90 ° towards the cover region 6 until it is directed parallel with the edge 8 of the cover region 6. Thus, the central flank 11 is pivoted upwards so that it is perpendicular to both two adjacent flanks 10 and 12 and the cover region 6. The adhesive adhesive between the adhesive lugs 13, 14 and the central flank 11 secures the three flanks 10, 11, 12 in a permanent manner to each other and also each flank 10, 11, 12. The lid 4 can be held in the state shown in FIG. 2 in which is directed in a direction perpendicular to the lid region 6.

Moreover, the lateral flanks 10 and 12 are each provided with the curved part 35 which has a big radius of curvature. This bend 35 is formed at the end of the lateral flanks 10, 12 closest to the pivot edge 3 connecting the lid 4 and the bottom 5. The bend 35 has a radius of curvature of a height that corresponds exactly to the height of each of the flanks 10, 12 relative to the lid region 6.

In FIG. 2, the bottom part 5 is located in the same flat state as in FIG. 1. The " tray state " By this planar arrangement, each component of the bottom 5 forms a so-called "tray", ie a plane.

FIG. 3 shows the container 2 already shown in FIG. 2. Unlike FIG. 2, FIG. 3 shows the bottom three sidewall regions 22, 23, 24 being pivoted or folded upward around the corresponding edges 18, 19, 20 relative to the bottom region 17. Are each perpendicular to the bottom region 17. To achieve this, and starting from the "tray state" in FIG. 2, in this state the two opposing sidewall areas 22, 24 can first be pivoted upwards by 90 °. Thus, the central sidewall area 23 is also pivoted upwards by 90 °. During this movement, the two connecting lugs 26 are folded around the side wall area 23 so that the fold line 33 is directed towards the inside of the bottom 5. As the central sidewall region 23 is pivoted by 90 ° relative to the bottom region 17, two halves of each connecting lug 26 defined by the fold line 33 are flat on top of each other. And the additional pivot of the side wall area 23 is prevented. In the state of the container 2 shown in FIG. 3, the lid region 6, the bottom region 17, and the central side wall region 25 are located in the cavity plane.

FIG. 4 shows a vertical cross section of an embodiment of the container 2 of the invention at the position indicated by the IV-IV line in FIG. 3, as shown in FIG. 3. As can be seen in the figure, the sidewall areas 22, 23, 24 are pivoted about the edges 18, 20, respectively, relative to the bottom area 17, so that they are approximately perpendicular to the bottom area 17. It is. In this state, the bottom part 5 is in a substantially box-shaped state, where the bottom part of the box is formed by the side wall of the box by the bottom area 17 and the side wall areas 22 and 24.

The connecting lugs 26 project obliquely into the inside of the box-shaped bottom 5. Since the recess 30 is arranged in the central region of the outer edge 29 of the connecting lug, as shown in the figure, the recess 30 is in the box-shaped state of the bottom 5 and the side wall region 22, It is arranged at about half of the height of 24).

An article 36, for example food, is accommodated between two recesses 30 as shown in the figure. It may be a sandwich or a hamburger. Since the article 36 is secured between the recesses 30, the article cannot move within the bottom 5. More specifically, the article may not fall onto the bottom region 17. Thus, an air gap 37 is maintained between the article 36 and the bottom region 17. In the case of a warm or heated article 36, the air gap 37 functions to insulate the article 36 relative to the container 2. This has the advantage that the article 36 cools slowly and the walls 17, 22, 24 of the container 2 are not heated, thus allowing the user to grasp more easily.

5 shows the container 2 of the invention in the closed state. In this state, the bottom portion 5 is boxed by pivoting all of the sidewall regions 22, 23, 24, 25 90 degrees upward relative to the bottom region 17. At all four corners of the bottom 5, the connecting lugs 26 protrude into the interior of the bottom 5 and thus can hold the article 36 on the bottom 5 in the manner shown in FIG. 4.

The cover part 4 is then pivoted about the pivot edge 3 so that the cover part 4 overlaps the bottom part 95 past the box-shaped bottom part 5. This overlap is made possible by the stepped portion 34 whose cross-sectional dimension of the bottom portion is slightly smaller than that of the lid portion 4.

With the container 2 closed, the flank of the lid and the side wall area of the bottom 5 are faced on top of each other on the three side walls of the container 2. The flank 10 is plane parallel above the sidewall region 24, the central flank 11 is plane parallel above the sidewall region 23, and the lateral flank 12 is plane parallel above the sidewall region 22. . The single wall of the container is formed only by the side wall area 25 which is kept in a single layer. Because the flank and sidewall areas overlap, all three other sides of the container 2 are double layered, and there may still be air gaps between the sidewall areas associated with the flanks. Both the bilayer structure and the air gap further contribute to the thermal insulation of the container 2.

By the curved part 35, the overlap of the side wall area 24 by the flank 10 is not complete, but a grip recess 38 is maintained here. A corresponding grip recess 38 is also present on the opposite side wall of the container, where the flank 12 also does not completely cover the side wall 22 because of the bend 35. On the grip recess 38, the corresponding sidewall areas 22, 24 of the corresponding bottom 5 are exposed and can be gripped by the user. While the user holds the bottom 5 in this manner, the user can pivot the lid 4 relative to the bottom 5 with the other hand. Thus, the grip recess 38 makes the handling of the container 2 easier.

6 shows a second embodiment of a container 2 according to the invention. This embodiment is different in two respects from the previous embodiment. Both different points can be implemented independently of one another in the container 2.

The first difference between the container 2 shown in FIG. 6 and the preceding embodiment is that the container 2 in FIG. 6 comprises a closing mechanism. For this purpose, a closed lug 39 facing away from the bottom region 17 is formed on the edge of the side wall region 23. The closing lug is of elongate shape and is located in one plane with the side wall area 23.

The closing pocket 40 is formed on the cover part 4, and the closing lug 39 can be coupled to the pocket. The closing pocket 40 is formed by the cutouts in the adhesive lugs 13, 14, through which the closing lug (if the lid 4 is pivoted over the bottom 5 in the closed state of the container 2). 39 may pass in the space between the adhesive lugs 12, 14 and the central flank 11. It is also possible to form a closing opening by cutting in the edge 8 between the lid 6 and the central flank 11, after which the closing lug 39 can be engaged with the closing opening. . Since the closing lug 39 engages the closing pocket 40 or the closing opening, the freedom of movement of the lid 4 is limited to the facing bottom 5, so that the container 2 is more secure in the closed state. Can be transported.

Another difference of the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 in contrast to the previous embodiment is that the two opposing lateral flanks 10, 12 of the cover part 4 each have a fold line 41. The fold line 41 is a connecting edge 7, 9 of each edge relative to the cover region 6 and a connecting edge of the flanks 10, 12 with respect to the adhesive lugs 13, 14 assigned thereto. It is arrange | positioned along the dividing line in between. The extension of this segmentability 41 may be determined, for example, by perforation. Along the fold line 41, each of the flanks 10, 12 can be folded, so that the flanks 10, 12 lie flat on the cover area 6. By the fold line 41, this fold movement is transmitted to the central flank 11, so that the flank is also pivoted around the edge 8 relative to the cover area and laid flat on the cover area 6. Pass to the location. Although the adhesive lugs 13, 14 are still attached to the central flank 11, in this way the container 2 can be folded into a completely flat state. In this state, the containers may be stacked and transported very easily.

Starting from the embodiment shown, the container 2 according to the invention can be implemented in various ways. Naturally, the container 2 is not limited to using food. Instead, other articles 36 may be housed in, or transported in, the container 2. Moreover, the container 2 is not limited to the example square shape. For example, the lid and bottom regions 6, 17 may have a circular, triangular, polygonal, or any other geometric shape. The shape of the lid region 5 and the bottom region 17 need not be the same either. Naturally, this can also increase or decrease the number of side walls.

In addition, only one single sidewall region 22, 23, 24, 25, in particular the bottom being pivotable relative to the bottom region 17, while the remaining sidewall region is fixed relative to the bottom region 17. It may also include. This already provides an advantage because the pivotable sidewall area facilitates access to the article 36 located in the container 2.
