Description

[0001] The invention relates to a reusable packaging and a reusable packaging system.

[0002] Disposable packaging, such as cardboard boxes, is often used for transporting, especially shipping, items. The high resource consumption associated with packaging production and disposal is problematic.

[0003] Furthermore, reusable packaging for transporting objects exists. The disadvantage of this is that this reusable packaging is designed for specific objects, especially specific object dimensions.

[0004] Furthermore, damage may occur during transport, for example due to insufficient cushioning and / or fixing of the objects.

[0005] Another problem arises from the standard sizes of current packaging, as this results in wasted space and thus also in high resource consumption.

[0006] The object of the invention is to create a reusable packaging and a reusable packaging system, whereby the transport of transport goods is improved.

[0007] The objects are achieved according to the invention by a reusable packaging according to claim 1 and a reusable packaging system according to claim 17.

[0008] The reusable packaging according to the invention is, in particular, reusable transport packaging for transporting bottles, electronic circuit boards, or foodstuffs. The reusable packaging is preferably designed for shipping, in particular by parcel services. The reusable packaging has a base element, a cover element, and at least one outer wall arranged between the base element and the cover element, such that the base element, the cover element, and the at least one outer wall form an outer shell for packaging the transported goods, in particular one that encloses them on all sides. Preferably, at least one outer wall is connected to the base element and / or the cover element, preferably firmly connected, particularly preferably non-detachably connected. In particular, the at least one outer wall is joined to the base element and / or the cover element, e.g.sewn and / or glued and / or welded and / or made in one piece from the same material. It is possible, for example, for the reusable packaging to have a preferably single annular outer wall. The reusable packaging can preferably have several, for example three or four, in particular combined, outer walls. In particular, four individual, possibly interconnected outer walls are provided, so that a substantially cuboid-shaped reusable packaging is formed. According to the invention, the goods to be transported are thus enclosed by the packaging, in particular on all sides. Furthermore, the reusable packaging has at least one intermediate wall, arranged at least partially within the outer shell, for dividing the packaging into a plurality of compartments. The compartments are preferably designed to accommodate the goods to be transported, in particular to accommodate different, for example different sized, goods to be transported.Preferably, the plurality of compartments can be the same size or different sizes. In particular, the at least one partition wall forms compartments within the outer shell. The at least one partition wall is preferably arranged between the base element and the ceiling element, preferably connected to the base element and / or the ceiling element. Preferably, the at least one partition wall is designed perpendicular to the base element and / or the ceiling element. The at least one outer wall and / or the at least one partition wall is expandable. Expandable here means in particular that the outer wall and / or partition wall is designed to be height-adjustable so that the height of the outer wall and / or the partition wall can be increased or decreased. The expandability is implemented in particular to ensure that the reusable packaging is designed to be expandable, for example collapsible and / or foldable.The reusable packaging is preferably designed to be at least partially flexible. It is preferred that the reusable packaging accommodate one or more bottles and / or one or more electronic circuit boards and / or one or more food items.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the base element, the cover element, and / or a cross-section of the outer shell is substantially rectangular. Thus, the outer shell and / or the reusable packaging preferably has a cuboid shape.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the at least one outer wall and / or the at least one intermediate wall is designed as a bellows. The bellows design provides a particularly preferred implementation of expandability.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the reusable packaging has at least one pre-tensioning device which is designed to pre-tension the at least one outer wall and / or the at least one intermediate wall in a contracted manner. In this case, “contracted” means in particular that the outer wall and / or intermediate wall is held pre-tensioned in a preferably minimally reduced state. In particular, the pre-tensioning device is designed to implement self-retraction and / or self-contraction of the expandable outer wall and / or expandable intermediate wall, and preferably of the outer shell and / or the plurality of compartments, particularly preferably of the reusable packaging itself. It is preferred that the pre-tensioning device is pre-tensioned in tension. The pre-tensioning device in particular implements an enclosing and / or adjacent and / or fixing reception of the transported goods, preferably different transported goods, since it encloses the reusable packaging accordingly flush.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the pretensioning device comprises at least one tension spring and / or at least one tension band, for example a rubber band. The tension spring and / or the tension band are in particular pretensioned in tension. It is preferred that the pretensioning device, in particular the tension spring and / or the tension band, is connected to the at least one outer wall and / or the at least one intermediate wall. Preferably, a fixed, in particular inseparable connection is implemented, wherein the pretensioning device, in particular the tension spring and / or the tension band, is preferably joined to the outer wall and / or the intermediate wall, for example sewn and / or glued and / or welded and / or formed in one piece.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the reusable packaging comprises a lashing device, particularly connected to the base element and / or the cover element, for lashing the reusable packaging together, preferably in a contracted manner. The lashing device is preferably attached to the base element and / or the cover element. The lashing device comprises, in particular, a preferably lockable strap.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the at least one partition wall is detachably connected on at least one side to the outer shell, preferably the floor element and / or the ceiling element. It is particularly preferred that the at least one partition wall is detachably connected to the outer shell, preferably the floor element and the ceiling element, on one side and firmly, preferably non-detachably, particularly preferably joined, e.g. sewn and / or glued and / or welded and / or integrally connected to the outer shell, preferably the floor element and / or the ceiling element, on the other side. The detachability of the at least one partition wall is particularly advantageous in that the interior of the outer shell can be exposed, so that preferably the entire interior, i.e. preferably substantially the entire internal volume of the outer shell, can be used to accommodate objects. Thus, for example,At least one further, in particular identical, reusable packaging is accommodated in the preferably flexible reusable packaging. Thus, in particular, a nesting function of the reusable packaging for at least one further, preferably several further, reusable packaging is implemented. The intermediate wall is in particular movable, preferably relative to the outer shell and / or within the outer shell.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the detachability of the partition is achieved by a hook-and-loop fastener and / or a button fastener and / or an eyelet fastener and / or a magnetic fastener. Thus, the partition and / or the outer shell, preferably the base element and / or the cover element, preferably has at least one of the following closure devices: a hook-and-loop fastener, a button fastener, a magnetic fastener, or an eyelet fastener. The partition preferably has part of this closure device, and the outer shell, preferably the base element and / or the cover element, has a corresponding counterpart.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the reusable packaging has at least one intermediate base for further dividing the packaging into several compartments. The at least one intermediate base is preferably designed parallel to the base element and / or the cover element. The at least one intermediate base is preferably designed to be insertable into the folds of the bellows for securing purposes.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the at least one intermediate floor is connected to the at least one intermediate wall, in particular firmly connected. The intermediate floor is preferably joined to the intermediate wall, e.g. sewn and / or glued and / or welded and / or constructed in one piece. It is preferred that the intermediate floor is constructed so as to be movable together with the intermediate wall, in particular relative to the outer shell. The intermediate floor is constructed so as to be loose from the at least one side wall and / or detachably connectable to the at least one side wall. The intermediate floor is preferably connected to the intermediate wall in a central region of the intermediate wall.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, one of the outer walls or a part of an outer wall is foldably connected to the base element or the cover element for opening and closing the packaging. It is particularly preferred that this outer wall is foldably connected firmly to the cover element and detachably connectable to the base element; and / or this outer wall is foldably connected firmly to the base element and detachably connectable to the cover element. The foldable outer wall thus particularly advantageously forms a closable lid for the reusable packaging. The detachability is implemented in particular by means of a closure. The closure has, for example, a quick-release fastener, a snap fastener, a latch, a hook-and-loop fastener, a button fastener, an eyelet fastener, a zipper and / or a magnetic closure.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, in particular as an alternative or in addition to the foldability of the outer walls, the base element and / or the cover element is designed to be at least partially foldable for opening and closing the reusable packaging, preferably for connecting the base element to the cover element. For example, the base element has a dimensionally stable region, for example a plate, and a flexible region, for example a tab. Furthermore, it is preferred that the cover element has, in particular, a dimensionally stable region, for example a plate, and a flexible region, for example a tab. Preferably, the flexible regions of the cover element and the base element can be connected to one another, in particular by folding them together, and in this way opening and closing of the reusable packaging can be implemented. For example.The interconnected flexible areas of the ceiling element and the floor element can be fixed together by a fastener.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the reusable packaging has a closure for securing the reusable packaging in a contracted state. The closure is preferably connected to the base element and / or the cover element, preferably designed to fasten the base element to the cover element. The closure has, for example, a hinge closure, a quick-release fastener, a snap fastener, a latch, a hook-and-loop fastener, a button closure, an eyelet closure, a zipper and / or a magnetic closure. Preferably, the closure is designed to secure the reusable packaging in a minimally packed state. The closure allows the reusable packaging to be secured, in particular, in a contracted, closed state. The closure is connected, in particular, to the flexible region of the cover element and / or the base element.

[0021] It is preferred that the outer wall and / or the intermediate wall and / or the intermediate floor and / or the floor element and / or the ceiling element comprises or consists of plastic. In particular, the outer wall and / or the intermediate wall and / or the intermediate floor and / or the floor element and / or the ceiling element comprises one or more of the following materials, preferably consists of: polypropylene, preferably polypropylene fabric, and / or, preferably compressible, foam and / or bubble wrap and / or leather. It is preferred that the floor element and / or the ceiling element and / or the intermediate floor is dimensionally stable, for example has a dimensionally stable plate. The floor element and / or the ceiling element and / or the intermediate floor can, for example,Cardboard, in particular dimensionally stable plastic, and / or sheet metal, in particular sheet steel, with a combination of these materials with flexible plastic and / or film and / or fabric and / or leather being preferred. The outer wall and / or the partition wall and / or the intermediate floor and / or the floor element and / or the ceiling element are designed in particular to be cushioning, so that, for example, fragile transport goods can be packaged securely. It is particularly preferred that the reusable packaging is designed in such a way that it is recyclable at the end of its life cycle (EOL).In particular, the reusable packaging, preferably the outer wall and / or the intermediate wall and / or the intermediate floor and / or the floor element and / or the ceiling element, is therefore made of only a single recyclable material and / or a single group of materials, in particular in such a way that it can be recycled in one piece and / or the various elements can be easily separated at the EOL and then recycled.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the reusable packaging has a label surface arranged on an outer surface of the reusable packaging, in particular the base element and / or the cover element, for attaching shipping labels. The label surface has, in particular, a different surface, preferably with different adhesive properties, than the remaining outer surface. This allows, in particular, paper labels to be removed dry after completion of a transport route and, at the same time, ensures their secure hold during transport. These surface properties can preferably be achieved by commercially available, adhesive so-called label landing pads and / or by special coatings and / or varnishes and / or by special roughnesses created during production.The reason for a different surface for shipping labels is, in particular, that the roughness of the remaining packaging surface ensures that the packaged goods can be safely processed in standard parcel transport and sorting systems. This would be compromised by surfaces that are too smooth or too rough. This can be particularly advantageous for improving the removal of shipping labels. The label surface is, in particular, flat and / or rectangular.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the reusable packaging comprises an information device, in particular a machine-readable one, for example, a barcode and / or an RFID tag and / or a display. The information device is designed in particular for optical and / or wireless information reproduction. The display is in particular an e-paper display.

[0024] In the preferred design, all individual parts of the reusable packaging are firmly connected to one another so that they cannot be lost during multiple transport cycles.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the reusable packaging is designed to accommodate at least one further, preferably identical, reusable packaging. In particular, the reusable packaging, preferably the outer shell, particularly preferably the at least one outer wall, is designed to be flexible so that it can be expanded to accommodate it. The flexibility of the reusable packaging is implemented, for example, via the at least one expandable outer wall, preferably in the form of a bellows. Alternatively or additionally, it is preferred that the interior of the reusable packaging, in particular the outer shell, is exposed so that essentially the entire interior, preferably essentially the entire volume of the interior, serves to accommodate it. The exposure is implemented in particular by the moveability and / or detachability of intermediate walls and / or intermediate floors of the reusable packaging.The reusable packaging is designed, in particular, to at least partially, preferably completely, accommodate at least one additional reusable packaging within the reusable packaging. It is further preferred that this design allows the use of the undivided interior space for larger packages; in other words, the same packaging can be used both with and without the compartment structure without having to remove it.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the reusable packaging has at least one, preferably anti-slip, damping element. The damping element is, for example, a cushion. The damping element in particular comprises or consists of plastic. The damping element is preferably connected to the outer wall and / or the intermediate wall and / or the intermediate floor and / or the floor element and / or the ceiling element, for example, joined thereto, such as sewn, glued, or welded; received therein; and / or formed integrally therewith. The damping element is designed in particular for the damped reception of the goods to be transported, e.g., bottles, electronic circuit boards, or food.

[0027] The reusable packaging system according to the invention comprises a first reusable packaging with one or more features of the reusable packaging according to the invention. Furthermore, the reusable packaging system comprises at least one, in particular a plurality of, further reusable packaging(s). This at least one further reusable packaging preferably also comprises one or more features of the reusable packaging according to the invention. The at least one further reusable packaging is arranged, at least partially, within the outer shell of the first reusable packaging, preferably accommodated therein. Preferably, the at least one further reusable packaging is arranged entirely within the first reusable packaging. By accommodating the at least one further reusable packaging in the first reusable packaging, in particular the transport of several empty packagings as just one package can be implemented. This leads in particular to significant savings in the transport of the empties.It is preferred that, for the arrangement, in particular for receiving, of the at least one further reusable packaging in the first reusable packaging, the interior of the first reusable packaging is exposed and / or the first reusable packaging is designed to be flexible. Preferably, the at least one further reusable packaging is, in particular minimally, contracted and / or lashed together and / or closed.

[0028] The invention further relates in particular to the use of a reusable packaging having one or more features of the reusable packaging according to the invention. The use of the reusable packaging preferably comprises packaging one or more bottles and / or one or more electronic circuit boards and / or one or more food items in the reusable packaging.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, when using reusable packaging, at least one transport item, preferably several transport items, particularly preferably several different transport items, are accommodated in the reusable packaging. Preferably, the at least one transport item is packed in the reusable packaging, preferably transported in the reusable packaging, and particularly preferably shipped in the reusable packaging.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, when using the reusable packaging, at least one further reusable packaging, preferably a plurality of reusable packagings, is arranged, in particular accommodated, in the reusable packaging. The at least one further reusable packaging preferably has one or more features of the reusable packaging according to the invention. It is preferred that the interior of the reusable packaging, in which the at least one further reusable packaging is accommodated, is exposed. Preferably, the at least one further reusable packaging is contracted, in particular minimally, and / or lashed together and / or closed.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, when using reusable packaging, the goods are transported, in particular shipped, using the reusable packaging, followed by further transport, in particular return transport, of the reusable packaging. During the further transport, in particular return transport, of the reusable packaging, at least one additional reusable packaging is transported in the reusable packaging.

[0032] The invention is explained in more detail below using preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] They show: Fig. 1 a perspective front view of an embodiment of a reusable packaging according to the invention, Fig. 2 a perspective side view of the reusable packaging from Fig. 1, Fig. 3 reusable packaging Fig. 1 in a second state, and Fig. 4 a perspective front view of an embodiment of a reusable packaging system according to the invention with embodiments of reusable packaging according to the invention.

[0034] Similar or identical components or elements are identified in the figures with the same reference numerals or variations thereof (e.g., 16 and 16a, 16b, 16c). For improved clarity, preferably already identified elements are not provided with reference numerals in all figures.

[0035] Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a reusable packaging 10 according to the invention.

[0036] The reusable packaging 10 comprises a base element 12 and a parallel, opposite cover element 14. Arranged between the base element 12 and the cover element 14 are three outer walls 16a, 16b, 16c, which are connected to the cover element 14 and the base element 12, for example, by joining or forming a single piece.

[0037] The floor element 12, the ceiling element 14, and the outer walls 16a-16c together form an outer shell 18. An interior space 19 for accommodating transported goods (not shown) is spanned by the outer shell 18. The interior space 19 thus has a storage volume. The reusable packaging, preferably the outer shell, thus forms a packaging for the transported goods, in particular one that encloses them on all sides.

[0038] Furthermore, an intermediate wall 20 is arranged between the floor element 12 and the ceiling element 14, in particular in the interior space 19. The intermediate wall 20 is connected to the floor element 12 and the ceiling element 14. In particular, a detachable connection of the intermediate wall 20 to the outer shell 18 is implemented. It is preferably implemented that the intermediate wall 20 can be detachably connected to the ceiling element 14 on one side 21 by means of a fastener 44, e.g., a hook-and-loop fastener. On the other side 23, the intermediate wall 20 is connected, in particular, firmly, e.g., joined or integrally, to the floor element 12. On the other hand, however, it is also possible, for example, for the intermediate wall 20 to be detachably connected to the floor element 12 or to be detachably connected to the floor element 12 and the ceiling element 14.

[0039] A preferably dimensionally stable intermediate floor 22 is connected to the intermediate wall 20, particularly in a central region. The connection between the intermediate floor 22 and the intermediate wall 20 is particularly solid, for example, joined or constructed in one piece.

[0040] The interior space 19 is divided into four compartments 24 by the partition wall 20 and the intermediate floor 22. The compartments 24 are shown as having the same shape and size. A design with more or fewer compartments 24 and / or with differently designed compartments 24 is also possible.

[0041] The base element 12 has, in particular, a dimensionally stable region 11, e.g., a plate, and a flexible region 13, e.g., a tab. Furthermore, it is preferred that the cover element 14 has, in particular, a dimensionally stable region 15, e.g., a plate, and a flexible region 17, e.g., a tab. The flexible regions 13, 17 can preferably be connected to one another, in particular by folding them together, thus closing the reusable packaging 10. For example, the interconnected flexible regions 13, 17 can be secured to one another by a closure 32.

[0042] Instead of the illustrated embodiment with an exposed front side, it is also possible, in particular, for the reusable packaging 10 to have a further (not illustrated) outer wall 16d, in particular on the front side. This outer wall 16d, or a part of an outer wall, is hingedly connected to the base element 12 and detachably connected to the cover element 14 for opening the packaging; or is hingedly connected to the cover element 14 and detachably connected to the base element 12. The detachability is implemented, in particular, by means of a closure.

[0043] The outer walls 16a-16c and the intermediate wall 20 are designed to be expandable, so that they are height-adjustable. The outer walls 16a-16c and the intermediate wall 20 are designed as bellows to achieve expandability. In particular, due to the flexibility of the outer walls 16a and 16c, they can be pressed together at the front loading opening so that their edges, which are reinforced with the rigid strips 28 and 30, lie on top of one another and can then be locked, thus closing the packaging. The reusable packaging 10 can thus be adjusted between an expanded state and a contracted state. This particularly advantageously allows the packing dimensions of the reusable packaging 10 and / or the size of the compartments 24 to be changed. The intermediate floor 22 can preferably rest releasably in the folds of the bellows of the outer walls 16a-16c, thus securing the intermediate floor 22.

[0044] As shown, the outer walls 16a, 16c have, in particular joined or formed integrally therewith, a prestressing element in the form of a tension band 26 of a prestressing device 25, wherein the tension band 26 prestresses the outer walls 16a, 16c in the contracted state, and thus the prestressing device 25 in particular prestresses the reusable packaging 10 in the contracted state. Thus, in particular, a self-retraction mechanism is implemented, which ensures that the reusable packaging 10 returns to the contracted state or is held there by the prestress. The prestressing device 25 can in particular have further prestressing elements. It is preferred that the rear outer wall 16b and / or the intermediate wall 22 each also have a prestressing element, preferably a tension band 26.

[0045] Due to the detachability of the intermediate wall 20, the interior 19 of the reusable packaging 10 can be exposed. For example, it is possible to detach the intermediate wall 20 at the side 21 from the cover element 14 by means of the closure 44 and then to place the intermediate wall 20 on the inside of the base element 12. Preferably, in this case, the intermediate floor 22 is also movable, so that the intermediate floor 22 can also be placed on the inside of the base element 12. This allows the interior to be exposed, so that essentially the entire volume of the outer shell 18 can be used to accommodate objects to be transported, in particular also to accommodate another, preferably identical, reusable packaging 10 (cf. Fig. 4) is available. Fig. 3 shows the exposed state of the reusable packaging 10 from Fig. 1.

[0046] As shown, the reusable packaging 10 has a closure 32 for securing the reusable packaging 10 in a contracted state. The closure 32 has, for example, two hinged elements 34, 36 (see Fig. 2), in particular hinge elements, which are connected to the base element 12, preferably the flexible region 11 of the base element 12. In the contracted state of the reusable packaging 10, the element 36 can be folded over the outside of the cover element 14, preferably the flexible region 11 of the cover element 14, and there create a closure with a counterpart 30. For example, a magnetic closure can be provided so that the element 36 connects magnetically to the counterpart 30 and / or a hooking closure can be provided, for example such that the eyelet 38 is connected to a corresponding opposite eyelet in the counterpart 30, e.g. by means of a push-through seal. These commercially available push-through seals made of, for example, plastic are designed for this purpose in such a way that they can be destroyed without tools and thus allow access to the packaging, which is not possible when the seal is closed.

[0047] The floor element 12, the ceiling element 14, one or more of the outer walls 16a, 16b, 16c, the intermediate wall 20, and / or the intermediate floor 22 are preferably made of polypropylene, for example, with the outer walls 16a to 16c preferably being made of polypropylene fabric. The floor element 12, the ceiling element 14, and / or the intermediate floor are preferably designed to be at least partially dimensionally stable, for example, by means of an internal plate. The intermediate floor 22 and / or the dimensionally stable region 11 of the floor element 12 and / or the dimensionally stable region 15 of the ceiling element 14 comprises, in particular, a plate, e.g., a hollow structural plate.

[0048] Fig. 2 shows a side view of the reusable packaging 10 from Fig. 1.

[0049] A label surface 42 is shown arranged on the base element 12. The label surface 42, in particular, has a surface-optimized element, allowing for simplified removal of shipping labels. Alternatively or additionally, the lid element 14 can have the label surface.

[0050] Furthermore, an information device 44, for example in the form of a barcode and / or an RFID tag and / or a display, for displaying information is connected to the floor element.

[0051] Fig. 3 shows the exposed state of the reusable packaging 10 from Fig. 1.

[0052] The partition wall 20 is in a contracted state. The intermediate floor 22 connected to the partition wall 20 is thus retracted in the area of ​​the floor element 12, exposing the interior space 19.

[0053] Fig. 4 shows the reusable packaging 10 from Fig. 1 in the exposed state of the interior 19 (cf. Fig. 3), wherein a further, in particular identical, reusable packaging 10", preferably in the contracted state, is accommodated within the reusable packaging 10. It is thus possible, in particular, to package, preferably transport, and particularly preferably ship, the reusable packaging 10, 10" and in particular further (not shown) reusable packaging accommodated in the reusable packaging 10 together.
