Abstract

A box for receiving bulk loose goods, in particular fruit, vegetables or the like, has a bottom (1), end and sidewalls (3, 4), and at least one handle (5, 6; 27, 28) hingedly linked to two opposite walls (3, 4 or 5, 6). The handle can be brought from a position in which the reception opening is clear into a position in which the reception opening is partially covered. The box, the hinge (16, 30) and the handle (7, 8; 27, 28) are made of the same material.

Description

Technical field

The present invention relates to a crate for storing piece goods, in particular fruits, vegetables and the like. with the bottom, the front and side walls as well as its cut.

P.QkffXajgX, stáv tečhDÁJsy.

Such crates are known and used in a variety of shapes and designs. In order to prevent the contents of such crates from accidentally falling out, the filled crates are usually sealed with a transparent expansion or shrink sleeve. As a result, the contents are held reliably in the crate and can also be visually evaluated externally, but disposing of such a mixed material container presents considerable problems. According to future provisions, for example, only one material must be present in one garbage container. In this case, the plastic liner must never be mixed with the cardboard box.

Large CH-PS-669 937 is a well-known conveyor, which is made including straps to be worn from one neck. A reinforcement strip can additionally be adhered to this support strap.

In the unfilled state, the strap is connected to the upper edge of the front wall section, thereby facilitating the conveying of the conveyor and its stacking especially in the unfilled state. After filling, the strap is rotated so that in the rest position against the support container the outer side of the strap points in the upright state inside the container.

The drawback of such a conveyor is, firstly, that the strap itself is not very stable and is therefore usually covered with a plastic belt. However, this conveyor again contains two different materials, the collection of which creates difficulties today. Furthermore, it is more difficult to raise the strap because it has to rotate into itself. This arrangement also greatly stresses the break line between the hinge clip and the carrier conveyor so that tearing may occur.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a crate of the aforementioned type in which the contents of the crate are retained without the use of different materials and yet nevertheless allows the goods to be recovered optically, in particular stability and handling.

To solve this problem, the two opposite walls are articulated by at least one bracket which can be moved from the position of releasing the insertion opening to a position partially covering the insertion opening, the crate, joint and strap or the bracket being made of the same material.

This fulfills both requirements. The crate, the hinge and the strap are made of the same material so that they can be collected together in one garbage container. The holder only partially overlaps the insertion hole so that the inserted product can be evaluated. For example, apples in this crate may also be turned to see if the apples have brown areas. This makes the crate very customer friendly.

In one embodiment of the invention, the crate is to be manufactured from a single shear, on the other hand, the holder or holders are also made of the same material, but are fixed separately to the pre-manufactured crate. In particular, a hinged connection is to be used here in a preferred embodiment. This hinged connection is formed by a simple roundel which, in the position of use, is seated in the eye of the hinge while the hinge is folded away from the holder. For example, the Eondel is bonded to one wall of the container. At the opposite end of the holder there is also a hinge with an eye which also rotates on a rondelle mounted on the opposite wall. Since the rondel is preferably punched out of the holder, there is a hinged connection with the same material which is also used for the crate or holder. In order to hold the roundel in the eye, it is preferably clamped between the wall of the crate and the corresponding ear, while the ear does not produce a clamping effect on the hinge itself. This prevents the curtain from sliding off the rondel.

Finally, it must be made clear that preference is given in particular to material which is largely compatible with the environment. This includes in particular recyclable cardboard. Accordingly, for the present invention, cardboard materials are preferably used for both the crate, the strap and the hinge.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, in which the entire manufacture of the crate is substantially simplified and cheaper, all crate parts, the joint and the strap are to be made from a single cut. For such an outline, the invention proposes several particular variants for the present example. This is particularly true of the articulated joint, whereby only the two articulated joints have the structure described above with the rondel seated in the eye. In another articulation, the strap is connected to the strap by means of a corresponding corner and remains attached to the strap when the strap is erected.

In all embodiments, it is common that the bottom is connected by break lines to the front and side walls and the side walls again by means of discarded straps with straps. In this case, it is contemplated that the lateral walls of the ears are at least partially in contact with the front surfaces when in use and are connected to them, for example by gluing. In the present invention, when referring to decommissioned lines or shunting, the term " cuts " Furthermore, the punched lines are usually not continuous but interrupted by the corresponding holding points. These holding points will later break apart so that the strap can be removed from the side walls. The same applies to roundels in the eye.

The aforementioned ear serves for the aforementioned attachment of the roundels between them and the front wall of the crate when a pivoting joint with a roundel rotating in the eye is used. In another example, the ear serves to attach the side wall to the end walls.

Preferably, double strips for sidewalls and holders are provided, wherein the double strips are connected to the holders by means of a break line. They have a connection with each other using corresponding embossed lines. In the manufacture of the crate, these additional strips bend around the above-mentioned break line so that they abut top or bottom onto the side wall and the bracket and can be fixed to them by gluing. The two punched lines are also superimposed so that they can be broken together. Furthermore, additional ears may be preformed on the outermost belt.

A simple method of the invention uses a joint which is formed by the aforementioned tip. This tip is located between the two brackets, in turn, the end of the embossed line, at angles to each other, which extend from the end of the embossed line between the side wall and the bracket. It is therefore framed by the aforementioned handle on the side wall and the auxiliary handle on the erection of the holder, the two just mentioned lines break, so that the holder rotates about a point as defined. Finally, the tip touches the ear from the outside.

However, a preferred embodiment with a roundel which is placed in the aforementioned eye is preferred. In this case, it is preferred to provide a design in which the hinge is molded to the handle itself, for example the hinge may be cut out at least partially from the ear. When assembling, the reinforcement strips are placed downwardly on the bracket and side wall so that the handles and rondels as well as the hinge are supported by the aforementioned side ear at the outermost belt. An essential advantage of this arrangement is that only one adhesive must be applied once for all the parts to be joined to each other, and only from one side.

In a second embodiment, on the other hand, the hinge is shaped laterally on the belt attached to the holder or cut out of the side ear. In this case, the reinforcement strips are then applied to the side walls and the holder, but for example the roundel must be provided with a layer of glue on both sides. This is an extra task. Incidentally, the previously punched lines should be bent. It has been shown that these curved embossed lines, although having fewer attachment points, are holding much better together. On the other hand, it is easier to break them later than with a straight line due to the lower number of holding points.

Overall, a crate is formed which can be cost-effectively made from a single cut in a single operation, and which is in particular made entirely of a single material, so that the collection does not create any difficulties.

An embodiment of the invention

In FIG. 1 and 2, the carton box shown has a bottom X, two end walls 2, and two side walls 6, 6. The carton is formed from a one-piece cut and the walls 2 to 5 are glued to each other in a known manner in a known manner.

A special feature of the crate for the packing of fruits, fruits and the like is the cardboard strips in the form of holders 7, 8 which, as parts on the end walls 2, 4 of the glued handles 10, 10 extend from one plane of the front wall above the side walls to the second front wall. This is in the so-called open position of the crate, i. with free container opening. In this position (fig.

1) goods (eg fruit) can be filled into a crate.

The cardboard holders 7, S can be tilted upwards (closed position, see Fig. 2) by using an external force, in order to prevent unwanted dropping of the goods, while at the same time guaranteeing a good view of the goods.

In the planes of the front wall, the parts 7, 7 and 8, 8 respectively of the holders 7 and 8 are folded along the lines when folded out.

11. 12, which form a tip 16 of each other 16

they are designed to hold the holders in the open position or in the closed position using the elasticity of the carton.

Both the holders 7, 8 and the side walls S / Z have at least one recess 13, 14 into which they can be inserted by machine or, optionally, with a finger, to swing the holders up.

As mentioned at the outset, this container construction, using only one raw material (carton), can produce a packaging that is suitable for packing fruit, fruits, etc.

The flat design of the crate makes it possible to reinforce the various crate parts by crimping.

Figure 3 shows a flat cut of the carton used to form the crates of Figure 3. 1 and 2. The various parts of the cut are marked accordingly.

During or after the manufacture of the crate for the crate according to the invention, further embossed lines must be formed. These include, on the one hand, embossed lines 17 and 18 for separating the front walls 2 and 4, so that they can be built around the fold lines j, 9.

Furthermore, it must be possible to separate the holders 7 and .g. from the respective side walls S and é. This is provided by the embossed lines 20 between the side walls S4 and the additional bands 5, 6 'and 7, 8. The strips 7, 8 are connected to the holder 7 or S by means of break lines 15, and additional grooves 5, 7 ', 7 ' and belts 7 and 8, respectively, and glued there for reinforcement.

Accordingly, there must also be another embossed line 23 between the bands 5 and 7 as well as 8 'and 6, which, after being folded according to the break line 15, lie above the embossed line 20. The two embossed lines 20 and 23 are not continuous, holding points 24 which are connected to one another, which only break when the holders 7 and 8 are erected.

Therefore, the belts 5 are lowered first. 7 as well as 6 > 8 ' around the break line 15 and glued to the side walls or grooves 8, 7 and 7, 7. Now the front walls 8 and 4 are built around the break line 19 and the thickened side walls 8 and 8 are erected. The brackets 7 and 8 around the break line 19 are then bent together with the tips 16 around the inclined lines 25, so that they strike outside the front walls 4 and 4 and stick there.

When the crate is filled with the corresponding product, the holders Z and 6 are erected and the stamped lines 20 and 23 or the holding points 24 break. Simultaneously with the erection of the holders Z and 6, the tips 16 are rolled over the line 11, and the line 12 is also broken. After the holders 7 and 8 have been erected, the tips 16 always lie between the handles 8 and 10 respectively.

According to FIG. 4, the bottom wall 1, the two end walls 6a and 6 and the two side walls 6a and 6b. The carton is formed from a one-piece cut and the walls 8 to 8 are bonded to one another in a manner known per se in a manner known per se.

The peculiarity of this crate for packing fruits, fruits, etc. is a strip of carton shaped holder 27 that forms a regular pivot joint with the remainder of the crate. For this purpose, it has a strip 27 separated from both sides by an inclined line 25a. one hinge 31a is connected, the rondel 32 being in the hinge, which is cut out of the hinge 31a so that it is held by only slightly retaining points and therefore remains in the hinge 31a. which is connected by the kink line 25 to the side wall £ ·

In the present embodiment, additional corner strips 38 and 39 between the side wall 8 and the ear 6, respectively between the holder 27 and the hinge 31a, are provided for shaping the tapered corners of the carton. These may or may not be created.

A stop edge 22 is formed on the ear 8, which, as will be described later, limits the rotational movement of the holder 27.

The holder 27 is connected to one δ by means of the embossed line 20

on the side with the side wall 5, and on the other hand, a reinforcement strip 27 is assigned to the holder by means of a break line 15.

Also, on the opposite side wall 2, a reinforcing strip 6 is provided by the break line 15, which in particular reinforces the upper edge of the edge of this side wall.

The folding of this example of embodiment according to the invention into a crate is carried out as follows:

First, the web 6 is placed on the side wall 6 and the web 27 on the holder 27 and glued. Then, the two front walls 2 and 4 are erected and the side wall 6 is erected, impacting the handles 2 externally on the face walls 3 and These handles 2 and the roundels 32 are glued externally to the front walls 3 and

Now, the side wall 4 is erected, two of which the side wall 6 formed by the ears 10 are now placed on the ears 2 and also overlap the roundels 32. However, the roundels 32 can, if desired, be overlapped with the additional 10. forms a pivot shaft between the handles 2 and 10, in which the hinges 31a of the holder 27 can be moved, as shown in FIG. 5 and 6. For example, for filling, the holder 27 remains in the position shown in FIG. 5 and is connected by means of the embossed line 20 to the side wall 6. After filling or for carrying the crate, the embossed lines 20 and 32 also break, so that the holder 27 can then rotate freely around the roundel

32. wherein said roundels 32 are located at eye 35.

In a further preferred embodiment of the invention according to Figures 7 and 9, in particular, the movement, now as separate grooves 27 and 28 of the shaped carton strips, is substantially improved relative to the remaining crate parts. A regular swivel joint 30 is provided as described below.

There is a substantial difference in the shaping of the strips 27 and 28. At these ends, the hinges 31 are connected at both ends by an inclined line 25a, the hinge 31 having a roundel 32 which is cut from the hinge 31 so that it is only slightly held by the holding points. In addition, the hinge 31 is separated from the belts / 5 'by means of a continuously embossed line 33. possibly 5. In this case, the abutting edge 22, which limits the rotational movement of the holder 27 or 28, is already formed on the strips 5 and 41, respectively.

The composition of the present embodiment of the shear according to the invention is carried out as follows:

The belts 5 are folded first. 27 and 6, 28 around the fold lines 15 inwardly, so that they lie on the side walls < Desc / Clms Page number 3 > and the grooves 27 or ZS. This strengthens the side walls and grooves. A bond is made between the strips 5 and 6 and the side walls, as well as between the strips 27 'and 28' and the grooves 27 and ZS, and it can be seen that the handles 31 are not glued by gluing. However, each roundel 32 is provided with a layer of glue so that it holds Z or ZS on the ears. Now the front walls Z and 4 are erected and the side walls 3 and 3 are erected, while retaining 9 and 10 from the outside to the front walls Z and Z. insert the hinges 31 and side handles 34 which protrude laterally from the belts 5 and 6 and from which the hinge 31 is also molded. These side handles 34 must be provided with a layer of glue to hold externally on the front walls. the holding points Z a and each holder 27 or 28 can rotate freely, the eye 35 formed by cutting the roundel 32 rotating around the roundel ZZ. The movement of the holders 27 or 28 is limited by the stop edge 22.

The only drawback of this design is that for joining the strips 3, 3 or ZZ, 28 and the roundel 32, a top adhesive must be applied, and then the adhesive must be applied again to the side walls Z to fix the side ears 34 to the side walls. from the other side. Here, the cut according to FIG. 10 again a further improvement, wherein the corresponding crates of FIG. 11 and FIG. 12 may be formed from this pattern. The change concerns mainly the hinges 31a. They are in the continuation of the embossed line 20 formed by the continuous embossed line 33a from the ear 9 or 10. Their breaking line with the ZZ or 28 holder is part of the already defined oblique line 25.

In this example, belts 5, 27 and 6 are shown. 28 folds around the fold lines 15 outwards and thus engage under the side walls 3, 3 or ZZ, ZS grooves. This allows the adhesive to be applied from one side only to the individual elements, from the rear side. It is applied to the rear sides of the front walls 3 and 4 in the area where the handles 2/10 and the roundels 32 are seated, to the rear side of the handles 2 and 10 and the belts 5, 6, 27 and 28 and side handles 34a in the region of the roundels 32.

Further, in this exemplary embodiment, it can be seen that the embossed lines 20a and 23a are curved. This makes it possible to provide substantially less holding points 24a in the embossed line 20a or 23a, respectively, so that breaking of the holders 27 and 28 from the side walls 5 or 2 is easier. In contrast to the straight embossed lines according to the first two exemplary embodiments, the cut does not break so easily in the production machine so that filling and later erection of the holders 27 and 28 is substantially facilitated.

2a, holes 36 in the corner regions of the bottom 1 are also mentioned in this exemplary embodiment, which first improve the microclimate in the crate and secondly facilitate stacking of the crates. Unlike the straight corners, the crates do not become wedged when stacked.

In FIG. 12, it is further indicated that a price tag or other securing strip 37 can be folded over both holders 27 and 28, which shows that the crate is intact.

Furthermore, it can be seen from Figures 11 and 12 that the side ears 34a protrude somewhat over the front walls 2 and 4. This causes the corner portions of these brackets 22 and 28 or the hinge part 31 to be covered by the protruding parts of the side ears 34a and thus protected from mechanical onslaught from outside. This is another essential advantage of the present invention.
