Description

PACKAGING ELEMENT
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a packaging element of the kind set forth in the preamble of Claim 1.
BACKGROUND ART
Similar packaging elements are disclosed in the International Patent Application No. DK 93/00310 (WO 94/06704). They are adapted to be positioned in pairs on opposite side or end parts of preferably box-shaped articles, such as electronic apparatus, e.g. transistor radios, amplifiers, loud speakers, video recorders etc., before placing these articles in an outer shipping envelope, such as a corrugated-paper box. The packaging elements serve in part to position the article within the outer shipping envelope, partly - not less important - to protect the article against shock and impact applied to the outer envelope during transportation and handling. These previously known packaging elements comprise a number of projections protruding upwardly above the level of the supporting surface and partly embracing the walls of the article in the side or end region to be supported by the packaging element. Pulp material as such is, however, rather un-elastic, causing the projections, having inclined side surfaces forming the taper angle made called for by the method of manufacture, to undergo some plastic deformation already when the packaging element is placed on the side or end region of the article, without, however, achieving that the packaging element is held quite securely on the article, e.g. while the latter is being placed in the outer shipping envelope. It is, however, not less fortunate that, when the outer envelope is subjected to powerful shock or impact, the packaged article is protected against being damaged by at least some of these projections being deformed in a shock-absorbing and predominantly plastic manner, possibly resulting in that the projections no longer lie in abutment with the side surfaces of the article so as to support the article from all sides. This means that the article may move relative to the packaging element and hence relative to the outer envelope. Although this will hardly reduce the ability of the packaging elements to absorb further shock and impact and protect the packaged article against damage to any degree worth mentioning, these previously known packaging element do, however, present a marked dis¬ advantage, especially in the retail trade, as is may be exceedingly difficult to convince a potential custumer that a commodity "lying loosely rattling in the box" has been packaged especially carefully to avoid damage during transportation and handling.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
On the above background, it is the object of the present invention to provide a packaging element of the kind referred to above with such a construction, that it will be held quite securely on the packaged article, both when the article is being placed in an outer shipping envelope and subsequently when, during transportation and handling of the packaged article, the packaging element has absorbed shock and impact against the outer shipping envelope, possibly by plastic deformation, and this object is achieved with a packaging element of said kind, which according to the present invention is characterized as set forth in Claim 1.
With this arrangement, the transverse wedge-shaped recesses at each end of the supporting surface will impart to the latter an ability for expand elastically in the longitudinal direction. This expansibility will partly make it possible to place the packaging element in such a manner on a side or end region of the article - although the side or end surface in question is longer than the supporting surface - that, when the element is placed on the article, the shorter side edges of the side or end surface will come into abutment with the wall parts connecting the shorter sides of the supporting surface with the base surface, thus causing an elastic expansion of the wedge-shaped recesses and hence a corresponding lengthening of the supporting surface. The result of this is also that, after the packaging element has been placed on the article, it is held securely on the side or end region of the article with an elastic pre-stressing force.
Corresponding to the wedge-shaped recesses, there are projections on the surface of the packaging element lying opposite to the base surface, said projections, when the article has been packaged in an outer shipping envelope, will lie in abutment against the latters inside wall, being able to absorb, by plastic deformation, forces from any shock or impact directed towards the envelope during transportation or handling, as such a plastic deformation of these projections has only little or no influence on the elastic grip of the packaging element on the packaged article, as forces directed to the latter in the longitudinal direction of the supporting surface will be completely or at least substantially absorbed by further elastic expansion of one or the other of the transverse wedge-shaped recesses.
For packaging articles with longer side or end surfaces, the packaging element is preferably constructed as set forth in Claim 2, as the projections on the opposite side of the packaging element corresponding to these further wedge-shaped recesses serve as additional shock-absorbing elements, and the recesses themselves will only impart the packaging element a certain further elasticity in the longitudinal direction.
Preferably, and as set forth in Claim 3, stiffening ribs are placed at the bottom of at least the transverse recesses. The effect of these stiffening ribs is that the elastic expansion of the transverse wedge-shaped recesses does not occur solely at the apex of the wedge- shaped recesses, but by an elastic deflection of their substantially plane side surfaces, thus to a high degree stabilizing and increasing the elastic pre-stressing force. Further preferred features of the packaging element according to the invention are set forth in the remaining dependent Claims.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS In the following detailed portion of the present description, the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the exemplary embodiment of a packaging element according to the invention shown in the drawings, in which Figure 1 shows the packaging element in perspective as viewed against the base surface,
Figure 2 shows the packaging element of Figure 1 in perspective as viewed against the side of the element opposite to the base surface, and Figure 3 shows the packaging element of Figures 1 and 2 as viewed from the side, partly in section along the line III-III in Figure 2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
The drawing shows a packaging element generally designated 1.
As shown in Figure 1, the packaging element 1 comprises a mainly plane base surface 2 that is substantually rectangular with rounded corners, and spaced from this base surface 2 a supporting surface 3, likewise being mainly rectangular and at its longitudinal sides being connected to the base surface 2 through wall parts 4, the transverse sides being connected to the base surface 2 through wall parts 5. The wall parts 4 and 5 form an obtuse angle with the base surface 2. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the supporting surface 3 is stepped corresponding to a side or end region of an article to be packaged, so that the supporting surface 3 comprises a longitudinal narrow segment 3' at a shorter distance from the base surface 2 than the remainder of the supporting surface 3.
At each end of the supporting surface 3, 3' and spaced from its short sides, there is a wedge-shaped recess 6 or 7 respectively, extending from locations close to the long sides of the base surface 2 transversely through the supporting surface 3, 3• . In the exemplary embodiment shown, the distance from the bottom of each recess 6 and 7 to the base surface 2 is approximately twice the distance from the supporting surface 3 to the base surface 2.
Placed symmetrically about the central axis of the base surface 2 and extending in the latter*s longitudinal direction from locations close to its short sides, there are at each end of the base surface 2 two wedge-shaped recesses 8, 9 and 10, 11 respectively, having the same depth and wedge angle as the recesses 6 and 7 and opening into the latter. At the same distance from the recesses 6 and 7 and situated closer to the center of the base surface 2 than these recesses, there are in each half of the base surface 2 two wedge-shaped recesses 12, 13 and 14, 15 respectively opposing each other in pairs and extending from locations close to the long sides of the base surface 2 and transversely to the latter to locations at a distance from the long sides of the supporting surface 3. The recesses 12, 13, 14 and 15 have the same depth and wedge angle as the recesses 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11.
In the bottom of each of the wedge-shaped recesses 6 and 7, and situated roughly in continuation of the long sides of the supporting surfaces 3, there are two stiffening ribs 16, 17 and 18, 19 respectively, and aligned with these stiffening ribs there is in the bottom of each of the recesses 12, 13, 14 and 15 a corresponding stiffening rib 20, 21, 22 or 23 respectively.
The height of each of these stiffening ribs 16-23 is preferably between 1/10 and 1/4 of the depth of the recesses 6-14.
In each of the recesses mentioned, there may, of course, be provided stiffening ribs in addition to those shown, as likewise corresponding additional stiffening ribs may be provided in the bottom of the longitudinal wedge-shaped recesses 8, 9, 10 and 11.
When a packaging element 1 is positioned on the side or end region of a mainly box-shaped article, the side or end surface of which is slightly longer than the supporting surface 3, 3• , the shorter side edges of the article will first come into abutment against the inclined wall parts 5 in the packaging element 1, and when the latter is forced onto the article, these wall parts 5 at each end of the packaging element 1 will be forced away from each other. In this manner, especially the transversel wedge-shaped recesses 6 and 7 are expanded elastically, so that their wedge angle is increased, at least in the region of the supporting surface 3, 3' , i.e. the supporting surface 3, 3' is expanded in its longitudinal direction, so that the side or end surface of the article may be brought into abutment against the supporting surface 3, 3• . This causes the packaging element 1 to hold itself on the article with the elastic pre-stressing force provided by this expansion of the recesses 6 and 7.
In order that this elastic expansion of the wedge- shaped recesses 6 and 7 will not occur solely by an elastic deformation of the pulp material in the bottom of the wedge-shaped recesses 6 and 7, stiffening ribs 16, 17 and 18, 19 respectively are placed in these locations to ensure that this elastic deformation occurs by deflection of the plane surfaces of the wedge-shaped recesses 6 and 7 converging at an angle. For the same deformation of the latter, this means that the elastic pre-stressing force will be greater but also more stable than if the deformation were to take place solely in the bottom of the recesses 6 and 7.
Corresponding comments may be made about the stiffening ribs 20-23 at the bottom of the wedge-shaped recesses 12-15; these recesses do not, however, contribute to the elastic elongation of the supporting surface 3,
3' to the same degree as the transverse recesses 6 and 7.
As will especially be evident from Figure 2, the projections on the side of the packaging element 1 lying opposite to the base surface 2 corresponding to the recesses 6-15 protrude to an equal height above the base surface 2 and lie within a substantially rectangular, box-shaped region.
Thus, a box-shaped article having a packaging element positioned on each of its side or end regions may be packaged in a box-shaped outer shipping envelope, e.g. a corrugated-paper box, so that the projections on the packaging element 1 lie in abutment against the inside of the box and position the article within the outer shipping envelope. Further, the projections are able, e.g. by plastic deformation, to absorb energy from shock or impact during transportation or handling, so that the packaged article will not be damaged. Such a plastic deformation of one or a number of these projections will not at all or only to a small degree influence the elastic grib of the packaging element 1 on the packaged article.
