Abstract
A carton of a traditional glue end type contains an additional flap which is revealed when the end of the carton is opened and which allows the consumer to lift and lock it into place as a resealing feature for the open carton end. The additional flap is folded through 180° and is be held down behind an end flap of the carton with a small glue spot. A zone of weakness is defined in the carton to allow easy opening of the end of the carton at the correct place for proper functioning of the additional flap. Advantageously, a consumer may easily open the carton end since the consumer can easily puncture the zone of weakness. However, the extra flap may be used by the consumer to reseal the carton end multiple times.
Description
- This invention relates to a carton and to a carton blank. In particular, the application relates to a carton which is particularly suited for use in the pharmaceutical industry but which may also be used in other areas.
- Many cardboard cartons are manufactured in the well known “glue end” format. As the name suggests, in the “glue end” format, to seal the ends of a carton, one end flap overlaps and is glued to another end flap. Typically the largest two end flaps at each end, are glued together in this format. Such a format allows the manufacturer, such as a pharmaceutical manufacturer to insert their product and close the ends of the carton using glue. Although this form of carton closure is not considered to be tamper evident, it does address a number of issues related to product tampering and pilfering during the distribution cycle.
- Boxes used to distribute medications are usually in the conventional rectangular carton shape and are mostly made from cardboard. Some are in the “glue end” format. There are also versions of glue end format cartons that allow a consumer to easily open a glue end carton which rely on perforations defining a line of weakness adjacent the end of the carton which can be easily broken to open the carton.
- Existing versions of glue end cartons suffer from a number of problems as follows.
- First the end flaps are glued with a permanent adhesive. Often the consumer will find the process of opening the end flaps difficult and frustrating. Frequently, the consumer will have to destroy the end of the carton to open it.
- Secondly, once the end flaps have been opened, they cannot easily be resealed. Any medication in the carton (or other contents) is then free to fall out.
- Thirdly, existing carton erection and filling machines are generally limited to working with conventional glue end cartons. Any extra flaps or panels cannot easily be accommodated within normal machinery design parameters.
- The present invention aims to alleviate the problems of the prior discussed above.
- Any discussion of documents, acts, materials, devices, articles or the like which has been included in the present specification is solely for the purpose of providing a context for the present invention. It is not to be taken as an admission that any or all of these matters form part of the prior art base or were common general knowledge in the field relevant to the present invention as it existed before the priority date of each claim of this application.
- In a first broad aspect, the present invention provides a carton of a traditional glue end type but which contains an additional flap which is revealed when the end of the carton is opened and which allows the consumer to lift and lock it into place as a resealing feature for the open carton end.
- Typically, the additional flap will be held down with a small glue spot, although this is not essential.
- A zone of weakness associated with a thumb tab may be defined by the carton to allow easy opening of the end of the carton at the correct place for proper functioning of the additional flap.
- An advantage of the present invention is that a consumer may easily open the carton end since the consumer can easily puncture the thumb tab without destroying the end of the carton. However, the extra flap may be used by the consumer to reseal the carton end multiple times.
- More specifically, in one aspect the present invention provides a carton including side panels and at least two end flaps defined at each end of the carton wherein the carton is closed by gluing a first end flap at each end over a second end flap characterised by:
-
- preferably a line of weakness extending between a first flap of one end and an adjacent side panel; and
- an additional flap folded behind said end flaps;
- the arrangement being such that the carton may be opened along the line of weakness and resealed by means of the flap.
- Typically, the line of weakness defines a semicircular thumb tab portion which extends into the said adjacent side panel.
- The additional flap is typically attached to and folded behind the second end flap.
- The invention also encompasses a carton blank for making a carton embodying the present invention, the blank defining;
-
- a plurality of side panels; and
- end flaps;
- characterised by
- an additional flap hinged to one end flap of a pair of opposed end flaps in the assembled carton; and preferably
- a line of weakness linking the other end flap of opposed end flaps to a contiguous side panel.
- The un-erected carton, as delivered to the pharmaceutical manufacturer will be produced with the extra flap already folded back, and in some cases glued so that the flat carton will fit any suitable carton erection machine without modification.
- The present invention also encompasses an erected carton blank in which the additional flap is folded back onto and parallel to the one end flap.
- A specific embodiment of the present invention will now be described by way of example only and with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
-
FIG. 1 shows a carton blank embodying the present invention in its flat form before assembly; -
FIG. 2 shows the carton blank ofFIG. 1 assembled but before erection and end closure; -
FIG. 3 shows the carton fully erected in its final form prior to opening; -
FIG. 4 shows the carton after the consumer has opened the thumb tab to remove the contents; -
FIG. 5 shows the carton after the consumer has lifted the tuck flap; and -
FIG. 6 shows the carton after the consumer has tucked the flap behind the front panel to reseal the carton. - Referring to the drawings,
FIG. 1 shows the front face of a carton blank 10 prior to assembly. The carton blank is made from a sheet of material, typically cardboard, by the usual techniques of cutting and scoring. The carton blank 10 includes fourside panels smaller end flaps 20A to D, 22 respectively and aflap 24 for joiningside panel 12 toside panel 18 prior to erection and closure of the carton. The blank also includes two significant features not present in a typical glue end carton blank. The first feature is a perforated line ofweakness 26 between onelarger end flap 20A andside panel 14 which incorporates asemicircular tab portion 28. The second feature is an additionalfurther flap 30 foldably connected/hinged to endflap 20B of the carton blank. -
FIG. 2 shows the carton assembled prior to erection and closure, by gluingflap 24 to the rear face offlap 12.FIG. 2 illustrates that theadditional flap 30 has been folded over through 180°. The rear face of theflap 30 may be weakly glued, typically at a single spot, to the rear face ofend flap 20B. In the form shown inFIG. 2 , the assembled carton may be erected, filled and closed on standard glue end erection and filling machines. -
FIG. 3 shows the carton after it has been erected and filled with product. At one end,end flap 20D is glued overend flap 20C in typical “glue end” fashion. At the other end, the rear face offlap 20A is glued overflap 20B.Flap 12 is located behindflap 20B. As shown inFIG. 4 , when carton is opened by a consumer at the perforated line ofweakness 26,flap 20B opens withflap 30 located behind it. - In order to reseal the carton as illustrated in
FIGS. 5 and 6 , the consumer lifts theflap 30, (which, as discussed above, may be lightly glued to the end flap) and uses it to reseal the carton as shown inFIG. 6 . - Thus, the present invention provides a carton which can be erected and filled on existing carton erection and filling machines, but which is easier to open than traditional glue end cartons and which may be resealed.
- Whilst the line of weakness is a highly preferred feature, other means could be provided for ensuring that the end of the carton opens correctly for use of the additional flap.
- It will be appreciated by persons skilled in the art that numerous variations and/or modifications may be made to the invention as shown in the specific embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as broadly described. The present embodiments are, therefore, to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive.
