Definitions

  • the present invention relates to boxes for the transport of goods which enable to present the goods transported in the box to a consumer and facilitate access to the goods in the box to the same.
  • a plurality of products is transported in boxes which are open to the top.
  • a plurality of different box shapes are known in beverage industry to transport beverage bottles or smaller containers of beverage bottles (for example so called “sixpacks”) from the production to retailers.
  • the boxes are usually stacked, so that access is only possible from the top and thus products which are located in a box which is located in a bottom position in the stack may only be accessed when all boxes located above the same are removed. This is extremely uncomfortable, strenuous and time consuming.
  • such boxes are generally only designed for the transport of goods of a certain type, like e.g. bottles, so that for the transport of other goods other boxes have to be used.
  • a box may have a floor; at least two pairs of respectively opposing side walls, wherein a first one of the side walls extends upwards from the floor in a vertical direction at least partially only by a retrieval height which is lower than the height of one or several of the remaining side walls, to define a lateral opening with dimensions which enable an access to and the removal of products contained in the box through the lateral opening; and an insert for being arranged on the floor, wherein the insert is implemented depending on the products to be received in the box.
  • a system may have a box which may have a floor; at least two pairs of respectively opposing side walls, wherein a first one of the side walls extends upwards from the floor in a vertical direction at least partially only by a retrieval height which is lower than the height of one or several of the remaining side walls, to define a lateral opening with dimensions which enable an access to and the removal of products contained in the box through the lateral opening; and an insert for being arranged on the floor, wherein the insert is implemented depending on the products to be received in the box; wherein the system may further have a plurality of inserts structured for different products, wherein one of the inserts may optionally be arranged in the box.
  • Some embodiments of the present invention thus comprise a base or bottom and at least two pairs of respectively opposite side walls, wherein a first one of the side walls is implemented so that it enables a removal of products contained in the box.
  • the first side wall extends from the bottom or floor in the vertical direction at least partially by only a lower retrieval or unload height to the top which is lower than the height of one or several of the remaining side walls.
  • the retrieval height is determined so that from the first side wall a lateral opening is defined with a size or dimension which enables an access or the removal or retrieval of products contained in the box through the lateral opening.
  • embodiments of the invention provide a box of the above mentioned implementation which further includes a locking element which extends between the two opposite side walls which abut on the first side wall, and which is movable between a first position and a second position, wherein the locking element is arranged in the first position between the opposing side walls and spaced apart from the first side wall, wherein the locking element is arranged in the second position overlapping with the first side wall.
  • the locking element includes a bracket extending between the opposing side walls, and two struts arranged at the two opposing ends of the bracket, wherein a first end of the struts is arranged at the opposing ends of the bracket, and wherein a second end of the struts is arranged rotatably moveable at the corresponding side wall.
  • the opposing side walls and the first side wall may include recesses in order to receive or the bracket and the struts, wherein the recesses may be such that the struts and the bracket in the first or second position of the locking element are flush with one surface of the opposing side walls facing the first side wall or with an exterior surface of the one side wall.
  • a latching element may be provided which cooperates with the locking element in order to keep the locking element securely in the first or second position.
  • the struts and/or the bracket of the locking element may be implemented to engage portions of the opposite side walls or the first side wall, wherein according to embodiments the struts and/or bracket in this respect comprise one or several snap-in elements in order to cooperate with corresponding snap-in element receiving portions of the side walls.
  • the locking element may be arranged at the second position with a distance from the bottom or floor which corresponds to about a third, a half or two thirds of the height of the opposing side walls.
  • the locking element may be implemented to be additionally arranged at a further position spaced apart from the first side wall, wherein in this case the struts may be implemented telescopically, to arrange the locking element selectively at the second or at the further position.
  • embodiments of the invention provide a box of the above-mentioned type, further including an insert to be arrange on the floor of the box, the insert being implemented depending on the products to be received in the box.
  • the insert may be detachably connectable to the floor and/or the side surfaces, advantageously only using special tools.
  • the insert may be plate-shaped and a first surface of the insert facing the floor may be adapted to a structure of the floor.
  • the surface of the plate-shaped insert opposing the first surface is structured according to the product to be inserted.

  • the box is restricted in vertical direction to the top by the first side wall area (which may also be the complete side wall) extending from the bottom to the top, which has a lower retrieval height. I.e., above this first side wall area no further frictional connection between the adjacent side walls exists.
  • the first side wall is at least partially less high than the surrounding side walls or than some of the surrounding side walls, so that access is possible also at the side of the box, in order to thus have easy access to products which are arranged in lower boxes of the stack, even if the boxes are stacked.
  • the height of the first side wall is still dimensioned such that the specific products transported in the box may not fall out of the box during transport.
  • the box is determined for the transport of bottles or of bottles prepacked in smaller containers, which is why the first side wall comprises a height which is sufficient to prevent falling out of individual bottles from the box.
  • the height is between 1 and 10 centimeters. In some further embodiments, this height is between 2 and 5 centimeters, or generally more than 2 centimeters.
  • the first side wall each comprises two side wall portions at its edges adjacent to the neighboring side walls which extend up to the height of the adjacent side walls in order to increase stability of the box.
  • the box comprises four side walls, wherein at least in the side walls adjacent to the first side wall grip openings or handle openings are arranged.
  • the grip openings here comprise an area running parallel to the bottom and also an area running perpendicular to the bottom.
  • the area running perpendicular to the floor or bottom is arranged in the direction of the first side wall.
  • apart from that the first horizontal opening section running parallel to the bottom passes into the vertical opening section with a radius which is large enough to be able to grip the box in the radius.

  • a larger supporting area for the products to be transported than on average in the remaining area of the floor.
  • the side walls adjacent to the first side wall at the front side where they abut on the first side wall are less high than at the front side opposing the side wall. I.e., in the direction of the opening, the side walls adjacent to the opening are lower, so that on the one hand the space available for retrieval is increased and so that on the other hand the light incidence or viewing angle into the interior of the box is increased in order to thus make the objects transported in the box, like for example bottles or the like better visible.
  • the remaining side walls which do not correspond to the first side wall are foldable or hinged with respect to the floor, so that the box may be brought into a folded state in which the remaining side walls are approximately parallel to the floor overlying the same or are located above the floor. By this, the box may be transported more efficiently and at lower costs in the empty state.
  • Some embodiments comprise an additional movable side wall area which extends above the first side wall in a vertical direction and which may either be removed or folded away. This may have the advantage that in the upfolded state the moveable side wall area additionally increases the stability or security so that no goods or products may fall out of the box. Further, in this unfolded state or down-folded state the moveable side wall area may be used to present product information or the like.
  • the moveable side wall area is implemented latticed or formed from a plurality of struts so that the box may be cleaned by pressure jets without separating the moveable side wall area from the box or inadvertently removing the same from the box by the high pressure.
  • the remaining side walls are coated or laminated with an foil or film which contains product information which may be read from the outside.
  • a light foil is provided so that by light reflection the object or bottles transported in the box may be optically better visible.
  • the remaining three side walls which do not correspond to the lower wall are of equal height so that the boxes may be stacked onto each other, wherein the floor of a box comes to lie on the remaining three side walls of the underlying box.
  • both in the floor and also in the top ends of the remaining side walls special recesses or contours may be provided into which the corresponding recesses or contours of the floor or the remaining side walls engage in order to thus enable stackability and guarantee secure standing.
  • the floor comprises a plurality of sleeves extending in the vertical direction from the floor upwards.
  • Sleeves are three-dimensional objects which are located on the floor and which are shaped such that the bottles are held or fixed by the outer boundary surfaces of the sleeves, so that falling out of the bottles is effectively prevented.
  • the sleeves only comprise a low height in the vertical direction, so that the same may also be referred to as sleeve stumps.
  • the height and the exterior shape of some sleeves is selected so that the same prevents falling out of the bottles through the lateral opening in connection with the first side wall.
  • the sleeves at their highest position are not higher than the first side wall.
  • the outer boundary surfaces of the sleeves have a varying height to adapt the same best as possible to the respective requirements.
  • the sleeves comprise a lower height in a direction in parallel to the side wall than in the direction towards the first side wall so that tilting in parallel to the first side wall is enabled, wherein tilting in a direction perpendicular to that is impeded and the bottles are held securely.

  • FIG. 11 finally shows a top view onto the embodiment of FIG. 5 , wherein it is obvious that the sleeve 54 c comprises a different geometrical form than the sleeves 54 a, 54 b, and 54 d or 54 e in order to enable placing sixpacks inside.
  • the central sleeve 54 c may of course have the same design or form as the remaining sleeves, i.e. for example sleeve 54 a.
  • any other sleeves may have the form of sleeve 54 c.
  • the floor 12 in the area 50 adjacent to the first side wall 16 is constructed with a larger supporting area than the central supporting area of the complete floor in order to prevent an unwanted falling out of the bottles from the box.
  • FIG. 12 shows an enlarged illustration of the sleeves 54 a to 54 c, so that their special shape may be seen which enables, in cooperation with the first side wall 16 b, to hold the bottles both securely and also retrievable towards the front.
  • some embodiments of sleeves have an outer surface whose height is not constant in the vertical direction.
  • the hatched area 70 is to be regarded, i.e. the area or the area elements which limit the sleeves laterally, i.e. in any direction orthogonal to the vertical direction 18 .
  • the outer boundary surface or area 70 comprises a varying height, as already indicated above.
  • the sleeve in a first side surface area 75 which is parallel to the first side wall 16 b and secures a bottle to the back (in the direction 72 facing away from the first side wall 16 b ) is less high than in a second side surface area 76 which secures the bottle against a tilting in a direction 74 in parallel to the first side wall 16 b.
  • the function of preventing tilting backwards is executed by a first boundary surface area 75 which completes the sleeve basically in the direction in parallel to the first side wall 16 b.
  • a second boundary surface area 76 limiting the sleeve 54 b in the direction of the first side wall 16 b prevents tilting of the bottles in parallel to the first side wall 16 b.
  • the first side surface area 75 is lower than the second side surface area 76 to enable tilting when the bottles fall or tilt out to the front, without having to lift the bottle so far that it possibly already abuts on the floor of a further box which is stacked on the respective box.
  • the second boundary surface area 76 prevents tilting in the direction in parallel to the first side wall 16 b and may thus be higher in order to increase stability.
  • both the sleeves 54 a and 54 b as also the sleeve 54 c cause a maximum stability when simultaneously enabling tilting out towards the front as the sleeves in the direction in parallel to the side wall comprise a lower height than in the direction perpendicular to the side wall.
  • the sleeves in FIG. 12 are provided with outer boundary partial surfaces, which are concavely domed in between the tips of the basically diamond-shaped basic form, wherein the radius of the dome basically corresponds to the diameter of a bottle in order to still be able to securely hold the bottle.
  • FIG. 13 shows a box which basically corresponds to the box of FIG. 1 , so that a renewed description of the different elements already described with respect to FIG. 1 is omitted.
  • the box according to FIG. 13( a ) further includes a locking element 100 comprising a bracket 102 which includes two opposing ends.
  • first strut 104 is arranged and at a second end 102 b of the bracket 102 a second strut 106 is arranged.
  • the ends 104 a and 106 a of the struts 104 , 106 facing away from the bracket 102 are arranged rotationally moveable at the opposing side surfaces or end surfaces 14 a and 14 b.
  • the locking element or transport protection element 100 is located in a position which is between a first position and a second position.
  • FIG. 13( b ) the box illustrated in FIG.
  • FIG. 13( a ) is again illustrated, but now with the locking element 100 in a first position in which the bracket 102 extends between the side walls 14 a and 14 b, wherein the same is arranged spaced apart from the lower side wall 16 b.
  • the bracket 102 is located half way up the side walls 14 a and 14 b, wherein the present invention is not restricted to this arrangement. Rather, the bracket 102 may either be arranged lower or higher, depending on the circumstances.
  • the struts 104 and 106 are implemented such and supported such that when folding or turning the bracket 102 from the position illustrated in FIG. 13( a ) into the position illustrated in FIG.
  • the bracket 102 takes on a certain distance to the bottom, lower side wall 116 b.
  • the side walls 14 a and 14 b or the surfaces of these two end walls facing the lower side wall 16 b are structured to receive or include the struts 104 and 106 and the area in which the bracket 102 is connected to the struts 104 and 106 , i.e. the opposing ends 102 a and 102 b of the bracket 102 , in recesses or cut-outs such that a flush front surface results.
  • FIG. 14 shows a stacked arrangement of a box of FIG. 1 on which a box according to FIG. 13 is arranged, wherein here, however, the situation is illustrated in which the bracket 102 is arranged in a second position in which the same is arranged overlapping the lower side wall 14 b.
  • the lower side wall 16 b is also structured by recesses or cut-outs to receive the bracket 102 in the second position illustrated in FIG. 14 so that a flush front surface of the side wall 16 b results.
  • the opposing ends 102 a and 102 b of the bracket 102 are implemented such that the same enclose the corresponding side wall 14 a and 14 b in the first position illustrated in FIG. 13( b ) in order thus guarantee a latching and a secure positioning of the bracket 102 .
  • a secure positioning of the bracket 102 is achieved by corresponding engagement elements formed in the low wall engaging the bracket 102 .
  • an additional transport protection element is provided which is arranged in the position illustrated in FIG. 13( b ) during transport and thus may act upon products located within the box to prevent a movement of the same in the direction of the opening, in other words, to provide a further barrier against falling out of the products.
  • the bracket is rotatably connected to the side surfaces or end surfaces of the box and may easily be moved from the closed position illustrated in FIG. 13( b ) into the open position so that free access onto the products located within the box is possible.
  • the invention is not restricted to the examples described with reference to FIGS. 13 and 14 , and rather, instead of the arrangement of the bracket 102 half way up the end walls, also another positioning may be selected, for example the distance from the low wall 16 b may be selected at one third of the height of the side walls or at two thirds of the height of the side walls. Further, according to one embodiment it may be provided to implement the struts 104 and 106 telescopically in order to thus arrange a positioning of the bracket 102 based on the situation of FIG. 14 at different heights along the height of the side walls so that the height of the locking element 102 may be set flexibly depending on the products located within the box.
  • FIG. 15 shows a box which was already described with respect to FIG. 1 but which is different with respect to the implementation of the floor 12 .
  • an insert 112 is provided which is detachably mounted to the floor of the box.
  • the insert 112 illustrated in FIG. 16 includes a top surface 112 a on which a first strut 114 is illustrated which extends in parallel to the opposing end walls 14 a and 14 b across the complete depth of the box up to the back wall 16 a.
  • a further strut, the cross strut or cross brace 116 is provided which extends from the side wall 14 a about half way of the depth of the box up to the first strut 114 .
  • the insert 112 may for example be provided to receive products packed in cardboard boxes having dimensions corresponding to the compartments resulting in the insert 112 . Apart from such products any products may be provided to be included in the box according to FIG. 16 , wherein according to the invention for different products also different inserts 112 may be detachably arranged in the box.
  • FIG. 16 some embodiments for the implementation of the inserts 112 are given, wherein for example the surface 112 a in FIG. 16( a ) may be provided with rectangular and circular recesses to simultaneously take up products comprising a corresponding foot print.
  • FIG. 16( b ) shows, similar to FIG. 15 , the arrangement of struts on the top surface 112 a of the insert 112 , and according to FIG. 16( c ) sleeves may be provided on the top surface 112 a similar to what was described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 12 .
  • FIG. 16( b ) shows, similar to FIG. 15 , the arrangement of struts on the top surface 112 a of the insert 112 , and according to FIG. 16( c ) sleeves may be provided on the top surface 112 a similar to what was described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 12 .
  • FIG. 16( b ) shows, similar to FIG. 15 , the arrangement of struts on the top surface 112
  • 16( d ) shows a lower surface 112 b of the insert 112 , wherein elements 118 a to 118 d arranged at the corners are illustrated which serve to engage corresponding elements or recesses in the floor 12 of the box, wherein the elements 118 are advantageously implemented so that for example after latching with the box floor a detachment from the box floor is only possible using special tools so that a box provider may assemble the boxes in a different way according to the requirements of the customer without the customer who uses the box having a possibility to exchange the insert for using the same with other products.
  • the boxes may be assembled according to the requirements of the customers and in particular increased demand for boxes with certain inserts may be reacted on when boxes for other products are currently not as much in demand.
  • beverage cans and any other cylindrical objects like, for example, hair spray, deodorants cans or the like may be transported using the inventive boxes.
  • the boxes with a lateral opening may also be used for a completely different type of products which may deviate from a cylindrical base shape.
  • the boxes are universally usable for any products as they enable to laterally take out the product from the box in the stacked state. This great advantage is not restricted to the type of transported goods.
