Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a hanging packaging and to a hanger for a product packaging of a hanging packaging.
  • Certain hanging packaging is known and for example is used in a commercial environment for display packaging, i.e. for product packaging that allows the customer or purchaser to see the packaged article.
  • US patent application US 2013/0228666 A1 discloses a hanging device which is secured to a product group. As can be discerned, the product group is hung from the supporting structure by placing the supporting face of the curved portion of the first hook-shaped portion of the hanging device on one of the two parallel bars and by placing the supporting face of the curved portion of the second hook-shaped portion of the hanger on the other of the two parallel bars.
  • the present disclosure describes improvements to previously known hanging packaging and to a hanger for a product packaging of a hanging packaging.
  • the hanging packaging should not only serve for presentation of the product in the salesroom, but should also be suitable for re-use by the customer who has purchased the product once the hanger has been removed, for example in order to store the product therein.
  • a removable hanger for a product packaging which can be attached to the product packaging so that the system as a whole consisting of hanger and product packaging is stable in two perpendicular directions in the horizontal, for example in a left-to-right direction and in a back-and-forward direction, when the packaging is hung from a product carrier running substantially horizontally.
  • the hanging packaging should serve not only for presentation of the product in the shop, but should also be suitable for re-use by the customer who has purchased the product once the hanger has been removed, for example in order to store the product therein.
  • the hanging packaging comprises a product packaging and a hanger connected to the product packaging, which hanger is preferably removable.
  • the hanger preferably can be connected to the product packaging reversibly and serves to hang the product packaging.
  • the hanger should in any case be removable.
  • the product packaging has a height direction (x), a width direction (y), and a depth direction (z).
  • the height direction which runs along the x-axis, is a vertical.
  • the width and depth preferably lie along two main axes of the product packaging.
  • a center of gravity of the product packaging can lie at any point within the product packaging.
  • the totality formed by the product packaging and the associated product that a center of gravity of this totality can lie at any point within the product packaging.
  • the hanging element of the removable hanger serves to hang the removable hanger, for example from a horizontally running bar, which serves as a product carrier.
  • a hanging element of this type for example can comprise a hook or a Euro cutout.
  • the first and the second connection element serve to fasten the hanger to the product packaging.
  • the corresponding connection points are referred to as the first and second connection point.
  • the first connection element of the removable hanger is connected at the first connection point to the product packaging, and the second connection element of the removable hanger is connected at the second connection point to the product packaging. It is expedient if the first connection element and the second connection element can be detached from the product packaging reversibly.
  • the web element running between the first connection element and the second connection element serves to provide a reinforcement between the first and second connection point.
  • the product packaging can thus be stabilized advantageously in the plane which is defined by the two connection points and a connection line running in the web element.
  • the product packaging can also be stabilized along a direction by means of the hanging element of the removable hanger. In the case of a Euro cutout, this is along the direction of the slot, for example. It is expedient if the stability direction produced by the web element and the stability direction produced by the hanging element enclose an angle greater than 0°, wherein 90° is preferred.
  • the first connection element and the second connection element are to be spaced apart from one another at least in the width direction y or in the depth direction z. They can also be spaced apart from one another in the width direction y and in the depth direction z. They can additionally be spaced apart from one another in the height direction x. A spacing in the width direction y and in the height direction x or in the depth direction z and in the height direction x is often expedient.
  • This feature also causes the web element to be stabilized along a plane which is parallel to a vertical.
  • the stability direction produced by the hanging element is perpendicular to the stability direction mentioned in the previous sentence.
  • the product packaging also has a third connection element for cooperation with the first connection element.
  • the product packaging also has a fourth connection element for cooperation with the second connection element.
  • first, second, third and fourth connection element is mechanical. It is also preferred if all connection elements of the first, second, third and fourth connection element are mechanical.
  • the first connection element has a hook.
  • the third connection element serves to receive or fasten the first connection element.
  • the third connection element has a groove or a cutout for receiving the first connection element. This can be a groove or a cutout in a contact frame of a shell, for example.
  • the hook of the first connection element which can be formed in an elongate manner, can be inserted into the groove or the cutout of the contact frame, onto which a further contact frame of a further shell is placed, whereby the hook of the first connection element is fastened.
  • connection element of the hanger can be a connection lug, for example, which is preferably formed in an elongate manner along a predefined direction.
  • the fourth connection element of the product packaging can be a slot, for example.
  • first connection element and the third connection element can be connected in a first connection direction and can be released in a first release direction.
  • connection element and the fourth connection element can be connected in a second connection direction and can be released in a second release direction.
  • first and the second release direction are oppositely directed.
  • oppositely directed is understood to mean, for vectors, that the two vectors enclose angle greater than 90°, with angles ranging from 150° to 210°, in particular also 180°, being expedient.
  • the feature of this embodiment has the advantage that the hanger is fixedly connected to the product packaging and cannot become released on its own from the product packaging. When the hanger is released from the product packaging it is necessary to move the first connection element of the hanger along the first release direction and to move the second connection element of the hanger along the second release direction.
  • first connection element and the second connection element are connected by the web element, and since the first and the second release direction enclose an angle greater than 90°, forces must act here which can be referred to as being oppositely directed.
  • the web element runs substantially in the height direction x. This has the advantage that the stabilizing force which the hanger can exert onto the product packaging along a horizontal direction is greater than in a case in which the web element is arranged along a horizontal direction.
  • the hanger is formed in one part. This has the advantage that such a hanger can be manufactured in a single process step and does not have to be assembled together. Furthermore, there is no risk that the number of parts of the hanger will separate from one another.
  • the hanger is formed in two parts.
  • a first part of the hanger comprises the hanging element and the first connection element and a second part of the hanger comprises the second connection element and the web element. Since, when the hanger is used as intended, the hanging element is located at the top, the first part of the hanger is located at the top and the second part of the hanger is located at the bottom when the hanger is used as intended.
  • the positional references such as “top” and “bottom”, relate to the intended use of the hanging packaging, the product packaging, or the hanger.
  • This embodiment on the one hand has the advantage that the first part of the hanger can be exchanged in order to use a different hanging element.
  • a further advantage of this embodiment is that the second part of the hanger can also be exchanged. This is expedient if the size and shape of the second part of the hanger has to be adapted to the used product packaging.
  • a first part of the hanger comprises the hanging element and a second part of the hanger comprises the first connection element, the second connection element, and the web element.
  • This embodiment has the same advantages as the embodiment disclosed previously.
  • a further advantage is that, since the two connection elements are arranged on the second part of the hanger, the product packaging is connected only to the second part of the hanger. An adaptation to the product packaging merely with the aid of the second part and an adaptation to the hanging element merely with the aid of the first part are thus possible.
  • the third connection element is preferably arranged at an upper position of the product packaging.
  • the product packaging comprises a first shell and a second shell.
  • first shell and the second shell can be separated from one another reversibly.
  • first and the second shell are connected to each other by means of a hinge, so that the two shells can be folded open and closed.
  • only part of the first shell is folded away from the second shell, whereas another part of the first shell is immovable.
  • the first shell lies by means of a first contact frame on a second contact frame of the second shell
  • the second contact frame of the second shell comprises a fastening element for receiving the first connection element of the hanger.
  • the fastening element for receiving the hanger is preferably a cutout or a groove in the second contact frame. This has the advantage that the hanger can be easily fastened in the product packaging by inserting the first connection element into the cutout or the groove of the second contact frame and by placing the first shell by means of the first contact frame against the second shell.
  • the first connection element of the hanger is hereby clamped between the two shells.
  • the hanging element of the hanger has a Euro cutout.
  • the Euro cutout (or the “Euro slot”) is often chosen in order to hang the product straight in the width direction.
  • the present invention continues this concept and allows straight hanging also in the depth direction. This can be achieved even in the case of centers of gravity of the packaging and product that are significantly shifted from the center of volume of the packaging.
  • an expected center of gravity of the product packaging lies between a first fastening point and a second fastening point.
  • the intermediate positioning of the center of gravity is estimated to be arranged in a horizontal plane.
  • the orientation of the hanger and the product packaging is important.
  • the upper part of the hanger is arranged vertically, i.e. that a connection path between the hanging point of the hanging element and the first fastening point is parallel to the vertical.
  • the product packaging is fastened to a hanger of this type.
  • the location of the anticipated center of gravity is estimated in such a position.
  • the anticipated center of gravity of the product packaging on the one hand and the first and second fastening points on the other hand are projected onto a horizontal plane.
  • the projected anticipated center of gravity lies between the projected first and second fastening point.
  • the overall system consisting of the hanging packaging and product does not hang completely straight downwardly, but the connection line between the points of the hanging element from which the hanger hangs and the anticipated center of gravity runs through a point of the web element lying between the two fastening points.
  • the path between the hanging point and the first connection point is thus only slightly inclined relative to the vertical.
  • anticipated center of gravity of the product packaging is dependent on a product to be used, although said product does not form part of the subject matter of the claimed hanging packaging.
  • anticipated center of gravity thus relates to the center of gravity of the hanging packaging with a product in the product packaging.
  • the anticipated center of gravity of the overall system, formed by the hanging packaging and the product, and the hanging point can be directly connected to a vertical connection line.
  • the anticipated center of gravity is directly beneath the hanging point of the hanging element, which means that the overall system formed of hanger, product packaging and product is stable in the position just described.
  • a hanging point of the hanger comprises a flat material and this flat material runs vertically.
  • the flat material remains vertical and stable in the previously described position.
  • a first part of the hanger also comprises a rail, which runs substantially horizontally, and the second part of the hanger also comprises a slider.
  • the slider can be fastened to the rail and can be moved relative to the rail.
  • This embodiment has the advantage that the center of gravity of the second part of the hanger can be moved relative to the stationary center of gravity of the first part. It can thus be achieved that the center of gravity of the overall system, i.e. the first part and the second part of the hanger, is located beneath the hanging point of the hanging element, so that the first part of the hanger hangs straight down.
  • the product packaging preferably comprises plastic. It is also preferred that the product packaging is fabricated from plastic.
  • a hanger for a product packaging of a hanging packaging also forms part of the subject matter of the present invention.
  • a hanger of this type has a first connection element and a second connection element, wherein the first connection element and the second connection element are designed so that they can be connected to a product packaging to be connected to the hanger, wherein the connection is established at two different points of the product packaging. It is preferred if the first and second connection element can be connected to the product packaging reversibly.
  • the hanger can be connected to the product packaging at the two different points of the product packaging so that, if the hanger and the product packaging are hung as a whole, the product packaging hangs in a predefined position and the product packaging is stable in the event that the product packaging is deflected perpendicularly to the vertical.
