Reclosable folding box with tamper-evident closure, and folding box blank for producing same

Abstract

The invention relates to a reclosable folding box (41, 42, 43) with a safety and tamper-evident closure (84), the lateral wall surfaces (2-6, 64, 65) of said folding box being made of a single-part blank (1, 1a, 1b) and being adhered together such that the folding box (41, 42, 43) cannot be opened without destroying an adhesive connection and / or at least one separable line of weakness region (16,17; 16a, 16b, 17a, 17b). The aim of the invention is to provide a solution for a reclosable medical packaging with a safety and tamper-evident closure, said solution providing an improved handling suitability and a visual detectability of a tear-open tab which forms at least the substantial part of the safety and tamper-evident closure. This is achieved in that an edge-side delimiting line (85) ofthe tear-open tab (18) reaches a folding box edge (39, 52) and is printed with a first linear pattern (20) on the folding box exterior, in particular a Guilloche pattern, at least one pattern line ofwhich at least partly extends over the line of weakness region(s) (16, 17; 16a, 16b, 17a, 17b). The first linear pattern (20) adjoins a region (21, 22) which is visible from the folding box exteriorand which is printed with color so as to contrast with the linear pattern (20), and the region is formed in the region of an edge-side delimiting edge (86) of the tear-open tab (18) on the exterior ona first lateral wall surface (2) so as to surround the tear-open tab (18) or at least cover the tear-open tab or in the region of the delimiting line (85) at least on a second lateral wall surface (3) region which faces the folding box exterior and is covered by the tear-open tab (18) and on the exterior of a third lateral wall surface (4), which is hinged to the second lateral wall surface (3) and which adjoins the tear-open tab (18) so as to transition into the tear-open tab.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a reclosable folding box having a tamper evident security closure comprising a pull tab, the side wall surfaces of which are formed from a single-piece blank and bonded to each other such that the folding box cannot be Opening without destroying the glued joint and / or at least one severable tear line region. [0002] Likewise, the present invention relates to a folding box blank for use in the manufacture of a reclosable folding box having a tamper evident security closure comprising a pull tab and having side wall surfaces formed from a single The part blanks are formed and glued to one another in such a way that the folding box thus formed cannot be opened without destroying the glued joint and / or the region of the at least one severable tear line. Background technique [0003] Due to statutory rules, the pharmaceutical industry is obliged to provide specific safety features for certain medical products intended for ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] These known types of packaging have the disadvantage that the only visual indicator to show the user whether the package in question has been opened is that the user has to check whether the perforation lines that would be broken during the opening process have actually been broken

Therefore, it is difficult for the user to grasp the boundary line of the pull tab for tearing the package

Also, these types of packages are not provided with a visual indicator showing the area of ​​the tab that is to be grasped to open
