Description

[0001] The invention relates to a protective packaging for receiving goods, in particular items of clothing, which comprises a rear side, at least one front side and end sides to form a receiving space.

[0002] From DE 20 2018 105 832 U1 a garment bag is known which comprises a wash and dry cleaning resistant plastic fabric.

[0003] Clothes are hung on hangers in the garment bag.

[0004] State-of-the-art garment bags are often made from non-recyclable materials.

[0005] In addition, many garment bags are designed to serve only one purpose, namely the one-time transport of the item of clothing, for example from a laundry to the user's wardrobe.

[0006] The invention is therefore based on the object of providing protective packaging for goods, in particular for clothing, that can be used for more than one purpose. Furthermore, the protective packaging should be capable of being recycled after its intended use has ended.

[0007] The goods, especially the clothing, should be protected from dirt and moisture in the protective packaging.

[0008] On the other hand, the protective packaging, in particular of the clothing items, should enable the clothing placed in the protective packaging to be smoothed out under the influence of heat.

[0009] The objects underlying the invention are achieved by a protective packaging for goods, in particular for items of clothing, which comprises a rear side, at least one front side and at least one end side to form a receiving space.

[0010] The invention is based on the assumption that the “good” that is placed in the protective packaging is at least one object of any kind and quality.

[0011] In the following, protective packaging will be described by way of example and not exclusively using the example of protective packaging for clothing.

[0012] The front side is designed to connect the back to the front.

[0013] The distance between the front and the back can be changed using the front panel.

[0014] The invention comprises a material comprising at least one "cellulose" as a raw material. The cellulose is in the form of a fibrous mass, which is preferably, but not exclusively, produced by the chemical digestion of plant fibers. The fibrous mass preferably comprises cellulose.

[0015] In the following, pulp is simply referred to as the raw material from which the protective packaging is made.

[0016] The back and / or the front and / or the end face are made of at least one material which comprises at least one preferably renewable raw material.

[0017] A raw material is a substance originally obtained from nature. The raw material can be processed and / or processed. Furthermore, the raw material can be a primary or secondary raw material.

[0018] According to one embodiment of the invention, the raw material present in the material is a renewable raw material. This refers to organic raw materials originating from an agricultural and / or forestry production process. Examples of raw materials include, but are not limited to, sugar, starch, or wood.

[0019] The organic raw material is free of inorganic chemical components, including 0% to 2% contamination. The definition of freedom from inorganic chemical components allows for a proportion of 0% to 2% inorganic chemical components in the organic raw material. This proportion is referred to as tolerable contamination of the raw material by inorganic chemical components.

[0020] The opposite of a renewable resource is a non-renewable resource.

[0021] In a further embodiment of the invention, the raw material arranged in the material is an animal and / or a human hair.

[0022] The invention understands a hair to be a top hair or a fur hair or a wool hair.

[0023] The invention further provides that the renewable raw material arranged in the material is a filament. The term filament refers to a natural thread of preferably unlimited length.

[0024] In an alternative embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the renewable raw material arranged in the material comprises at least one nonwoven fabric.

[0025] Nonwovens are primarily flexible, textile fabrics. They are easily bendable, with textile fibers as their main structural elements. Nonwovens are comparatively thin compared to their length and width. Nonwovens are traditionally used for insulation and upholstery materials.

[0026] According to a further embodiment of the invention, the renewable raw material arranged in the material is preferably designed as padding.

[0027] An additional embodiment of the invention provides that the renewable raw material arranged in the material is wool.

[0028] In contrast to outer hair, the invention refers to wool as the soft hair of the coat of an animal, preferably a sheep.

[0029] According to a further embodiment of the invention, the renewable raw material arranged in the material comprises wood wool.

[0030] An additional embodiment of the Erding provides that the renewable raw material arranged in the material comprises cotton.

[0031] The term “cotton” refers to tufts of long fibers obtained from the fruits of the cotton plant.

[0032] According to a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the renewable raw material included in the material is a reprocessed, recycled raw material.

[0033] For the purposes of this invention, "recycling" refers to any recovery process by which waste is processed to produce products, materials, or substances for their original purpose. However, the waste can also be processed for other purposes.

[0034] Furthermore, it is intended that the renewable raw material incorporated into the material be a natural product. For the purposes of the invention, a natural product is understood to be a material and / or mixture of substances that originated from nature itself, largely without human intervention.

[0035] According to a further embodiment of the invention, the renewable raw material contained in the material is a mixture of substances. This can be a homogeneous mixture of substances. However, the mixture of substances can also have a heterogeneous composition. Solids, liquids, and gaseous substances can be mixed together in the mixture. By way of example and by no means exclusively, a mixture, a suspension, or an emulsion can be present.

[0036] The embodiments in which the materials are present can be present individually or in combination with one another.

[0037] By way of example but not exclusively, it is assumed below that the back and / or the front and / or the end face of the protective packaging are made of a material comprising fibres. item of clothing

[0038] The invention defines clothing as, preferably but not exclusively, trousers, shirts, and / or blouses. A dress or jacket also constitutes clothing.

[0039] It goes without saying that the above list is intended only as an example and is by no means exclusive. The garment may be made of various materials.

[0040] The garment may be at least part of everyday clothing or work clothing.

[0041] The garment may be intended for a formal and / or social occasion. It may be used for sports or be intended as leisure wear. recording room

[0042] The protective packaging for garments includes a receiving space. The receiving space is intended for the protective storage of the garment.

[0043] The garment can be arranged hanging or lying in the receiving space. The receiving space can include vertical and / or horizontal dividers relative to the back of the protective packaging.

[0044] The room dividers of the reception room are at least partially detachably connected to the rear and / or the front and / or the end faces.

[0045] The at least one room divider of the receiving space is made of the same material as the front and / or the back and / or the front side of the protective packaging.

[0046] The recording space is adapted to the length and / or width of the garment.

[0047] The receiving space of the protective packaging is adaptable to the thickness of at least one item of clothing arranged in the receiving space.

[0048] The recording room is accessible from the outside for recording a piece of clothing.

[0049] To insert an item of clothing into the receiving space of the protective packaging, at least one end face has at least one opening.

[0050] The opening extends at least partially along the length of the front side of the protective packaging.

[0051] The opening in the front of the protective packaging can be closed at least in part.

[0052] The item of clothing can also be inserted into the receiving space of the protective packaging in such a way that an opening is preferably made in the front.

[0053] The opening in the front of the protective packaging extends perpendicularly relative to the front of the protective packaging. The opening in the front of the protective packaging can also run perpendicular to the front. The opening can also extend at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the front.

[0054] The receiving space is formed by the front and back sides, as well as at least one end face of the protective packaging. The at least one end face can be the upper end face located in the area of ​​a coat hanger. The at least one end face located in the area of ​​the coat hanger is connected to the front and / or back side of the protective packaging.

[0055] In the following, it is assumed that preferably at least two end faces are provided. By way of example, but not exclusively, one end face extends approximately transversely to the longitudinal axis of the front face. The end face can also be arranged parallel to the longitudinal axis of the front face.

[0056] The front and back of the protective packaging are arranged opposite each other to form the receiving space. At least two end faces are positioned opposite each other.

[0057] The front side may comprise at least two halves of a front side. The back side may comprise at least two halves of a back side.

[0058] At least in some areas, the front and back of the protective packaging are connected to each other via at least one end face.

[0059] In the area of ​​at least one end face, at least one recess is provided in the material of the end face.

[0060] The recess serves to identify the garment.

[0061] Alternatively, the recess is sealed with a transparent or translucent film to protect it from dirt.

[0062] The recess can of course be arranged in any area of ​​the front and / or the back and / or an end face of the protective packaging.

[0063] Viewed in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the front of the protective packaging, there is an opening on the upper end of the protective packaging through which the hook of a coat hanger can be passed.

[0064] It goes without saying that the longitudinal axis can also be the longitudinal axis of the back. However, for the purposes of example, the following assumes the longitudinal axis of the front. Front side of the protective packaging

[0065] The protective packaging has two opposite ends along the longitudinal axis of its front side.

[0066] In the case where, for example, a shirt is hung on a coat hanger in the protective packaging, one front side extends at least partially over the shoulder area of ​​the shirt.

[0067] The opposite front side extends at least partially along the bottom edge of the shirt.

[0068] Additional end faces extend parallel to the longitudinal axis of the front of the protective packaging to connect the front with the back.

[0069] To produce the protective packaging, the back of the protective packaging can be connected in one piece to at least two end faces.

[0070] At least one end face is also integrally connected to the front of the protective packaging.

[0071] Alternatively, the back of the protective packaging is connected to one half of each front side via one end side.

[0072] In the two previous alternatives, the two end faces extend parallel to the longitudinal axis of the front of the protective packaging.

[0073] To produce the protective packaging, the front and back of the protective packaging are connected to each other in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the front via at least one end face.

[0074] To form the protective packaging, the front and back sides are preferably placed one above the other in a congruent manner. The front and the congruently arranged back sides are connected to each other by at least two end faces extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the front side to form the receiving space.

[0075] With reference to the options available for producing protective packaging for garments, the system for storing the protective packaging is explained in more detail below.

[0076] In one embodiment of the invention, the end face between the back and the front of the protective packaging for garments runs parallel to the longitudinal axis, in the longitudinal direction of the front.

[0077] In another embodiment of the invention, the end face runs transversely to the front face of the protective packaging. The end face preferably extends transversely to the longitudinal axis of the front face.

[0078] In one embodiment of the invention, the front side is at least easily foldable parallel to the longitudinal axis of the front side.

[0079] It goes without saying that the front panel can also be double- or triple-folded. The distance between the front and back of the protective packaging can be increased or decreased by unfolding or folding the folds of the front panel in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the front panel.

[0080] It goes without saying that the end faces of the protective packaging, which extend transversely to the longitudinal axis of the front side, are also at least easily foldable.

[0081] Because the folds of the front side can be unfolded or folded transversely to the longitudinal axis of the front side, the distance between the front side and the back of the protective packaging can be increased or decreased.

[0082] The distance between the front and back of the protective packaging can be changed depending on the width of the respective fold.

[0083] The folds have folding edges that run in the longitudinal direction of the front.

[0084] The transitions between the individual folds on each end face can also be arched.

[0085] The same applies, of course, to the folds on the front side, which extend transversely to the front side relative to the longitudinal axis.

[0086] The end faces may comprise at least two folds, preferably four folds, particularly preferably six folds.

[0087] In a further embodiment of the invention, the respective front side is releasably connected to the rear side at least in some areas.

[0088] The front side is at least partially detachably connected to the front side.

[0089] The detachable connection between the front side and the back and / or the front side is achieved by arranging in particular a double-sided adhesive tape.

[0090] The connection can also be made using a hook-and-loop fastener. It goes without saying that the front side can be welded to the back and / or front side. The connection can also be made by gluing. This has the advantage that the respective front side and / or back and / or front side do not have any seams, which can tear, especially under excessive stress.

[0091] Material reinforcements can be provided in the area of ​​the front sides.

[0092] This ensures that the material is not destroyed even in areas subject to greater stress.

[0093] A further embodiment of the invention provides that at least one perforation line is provided on at least one end face, at least in some areas. The perforation line can be an entry profile, a separation profile, or an opening profile.

[0094] It goes without saying that the perforation line can also be arranged in the area of ​​a front and / or a back of the protective packaging.

[0095] The perforation line has the advantage that protective packaging that is stored in a rollable or stackable manner within the protective packaging storage system can be separated from one another without destroying the protective packaging itself.

[0096] This will be discussed in more detail below in connection with the system for storing protective packaging.

[0097] A further embodiment provides that a punching can be provided in addition to and / or alternatively to the perforation line.

[0098] The punchings are arranged particularly in the area of ​​the front sides.

[0099] The arrangement of the punchings makes it easier to fold the respective end face against the front and / or back of the protective packaging.

[0100] Additionally, the front end is designed to be arcuate, at least in some areas. The front end can also be partially circular. The partial circle is the area separated by a secant, e.g., of a circle.

[0101] In the direction of the longitudinal axis of the front, in the upper area of ​​the protective packaging, a coat hanger is connected in the receiving area in the interior of the protective packaging, in particular to the lateral end faces of the protective packaging.

[0102] The curved design of the front panel near the coat hanger allows the protective packaging to adapt to the curvature of the garment in the shoulder area. This ensures that the garment is not crushed and / or damaged by the front panel of the protective packaging.

[0103] The protective packaging is designed to be variable in length with respect to the longitudinal axis of the front of the protective packaging.

[0104] It goes without saying that the protective packaging can also be designed variably in terms of its width.

[0105] The width of one end of the protective packaging corresponds to the maximum depth of the protective packaging. The depth of the protective packaging determines the maximum distance between the front and back of the protective packaging. Protective packaging

[0106] The invention understands the term material to mean a material comprising fibers.

[0107] The material is, at least in part, made of paper or cardboard.

[0108] The fiber-containing material is mainly obtained from wood.

[0109] It goes without saying that the material in the form of pulp can include wood waste and / or waste paper.

[0110] The material can be made from renewable raw materials. However, it can also be obtained from a paper recycling process.

[0111] The material may comprise at least one filler. At least one dye and / or at least one sizing agent may be added to it.

[0112] It goes without saying that the material can also be produced using other manufacturing processes.

[0113] The material of the protective packaging exhibits high adhesive strength. This ensures that the fibers contained within the material are strongly bonded to one another. These bonding forces between the fibers make the material of the protective packaging particularly resistant to shear forces.

[0114] The fiber-rich material for the protective packaging can be kraft paper. Kraft paper offers extreme strength. This ensures that the protective packaging for clothing can be hung up without tearing after loading at least one item of clothing.

[0115] Depending on the required quality of the material, any other paper and / or cardboard quality can be used.

[0116] It goes without saying that tissue paper, for example, can also be used.

[0117] The material used in the invention is obtained from renewable raw materials. The material is biodegradable without leaving residues.

[0118] The pulp used can be used primarily in the form of raw wood pulp, eliminating the need for additional finishing of the material.

[0119] This saves manufacturing costs and eliminates contamination of the material, which would be detrimental to a recycling process.

[0120] In this way, the disposal costs, which must be borne by the person who places the protective packaging on the market, for example, can be significantly reduced.

[0121] It goes without saying that the material used must be highly water-resistant.

[0122] The fiber-containing material can be a woven fabric. It can be a knitted fabric. It goes without saying that the material can also be a fiber material.

[0123] It goes without saying that the material comprising fibers can also be present in a different connection form than those mentioned above.

[0124] The material can have a gross weight of, in particular, 29–400 grams per square meter. Of course, the material can also have a different weight.

[0125] An additional embodiment of the invention provides that the material comprising fibers is coated at least in some areas.

[0126] The material may have a different coating on the interior side facing the receiving space than on its exterior side facing the environment.

[0127] The coating can be single-colored. It can also be multi-colored. The respective coating can be applied using different coating processes. At least one coating is applied in a gaseous form, at least in certain areas.

[0128] The coating can be applied in liquid and / or dissolved state.

[0129] Likewise, the coating may comprise solids at least in some areas.

[0130] The coating can serve as optical decoration.

[0131] The coating can also serve functional purposes.

[0132] The functional purpose can be, for example, improved tear resistance.

[0133] In addition, heat resistance of the material can be guaranteed.

[0134] The coating can be applied as a foil. A varnish can also be applied.

[0135] The coating can be designed in such a way that the material of the protective packaging matches the color of the garment.

[0136] The coating of the material is biodegradable and is made from renewable raw materials.

[0137] The coating may include a wax coating, which further improves water resistance.

[0138] The coating further improves the material's tear resistance. The fiber-comprising material used in the protective packaging achieves excellent tear resistance values ​​in pull and burst tests.

[0139] The material can be printed in different ways in the area of ​​the outer side of the protective packaging and / or in the area of ​​the protective packaging facing the receiving space.

[0140] In this way, the protective packaging can also be used as sales packaging and / or gift packaging for presentation by the retailer to prospective buyers.

[0141] In this way, the protective packaging has a dual function.

[0142] On the one hand, the buyer receives the item of clothing he has purchased in visually appealing and / or high-quality packaging (protective packaging).

[0143] The buyer of the garment removes the garment from the protective packaging.

[0144] However, contrary to previous practice, the protective packaging is not disposed of after the garment has been removed for the first time.

[0145] Rather, the primary packaging (protective packaging) can continue to be used if the buyer has had the garment cleaned after repeated wear. The protective packaging in which the user received the garment from the retailer now serves its secondary and final purpose.

[0146] In the second function, the protective packaging serves, for example, to enable the item of clothing to be transported from the cleaning site to the home, particularly after cleaning, without the cleaned item of clothing becoming accidentally soiled.

[0147] In both functions, the front side and / or the back side and / or the end sides of the protective packaging facing the receiving space are designed in a so-called “zero-colour” representation.

[0148] In contrast, the outside of the protective packaging is printed in multiple colors.

[0149] The material of the protective packaging can be reinforced in areas that show significant signs of wear and tear due to frequent use.

[0150] Reinforcement can be achieved by applying additional coatings. The material can also be reinforced by using additional layers of fibers.

[0151] The protective packaging is explained using the example of a material containing fibers. The fibers are preferably natural fibers. The material can, of course, also have a different shape and / or composition.

[0152] The term "natural fibers" refers to all fibers that originate from natural sources such as plants, animals, or minerals. Natural fibers can be directly processed and / or processed without further chemical conversion reactions.

[0153] Natural fibers are organic, meaning they are of plant or animal origin. They can be of organic origin. Forms of protective packaging

[0154] A further embodiment of the invention provides that the front and / or the back of the protective packaging comprise at least two halves that can be moved relative to one another.

[0155] The front and / or the back is divided into two halves, particularly along the longitudinal axis of the front.

[0156] The two halves overlap each other.

[0157] A gap without any material can also remain between the two halves on the front or back.

[0158] The respective item of clothing can be inserted into the receiving space of the protective packaging through the separated halves on the front or back of the protective packaging.

[0159] Furthermore, it is provided that at least one pocket is provided on the front and / or on the back and / or on at least one end side.

[0160] The pocket can preferably be a patch pocket.

[0161] In particular, a tie and / or matching stockings and / or pocket squares can be placed in the at least one pocket, which are intended to complement the garment when it is used.

[0162] In a further embodiment of the invention, at least one viewing window is arranged on the front and / or rear side and / or on one end face of the protective packaging. The viewing window is formed as a recess in the material.

[0163] The viewing window is used to identify the item of clothing stored in the protective packaging.

[0164] This gives the user the opportunity to select other items of clothing and / or accessories that match the item of clothing stored in the protective packaging without having to remove the item of clothing from the protective packaging.

[0165] According to another embodiment of the invention, the receiving space of the protective packaging is adapted to the outer contour of the garment with respect to its inner contour.

[0166] This ensures that the user receives protective packaging that is specifically designed and adapted to his or her trousers, for example.

[0167] A further advantage is that the user is provided with protective packaging that is precisely tailored to the width and / or length of the respective garment.

[0168] Additionally, we ensure that the protective packaging also takes the thickness of the garment into account. Particularly valuable collars and / or hoods are neither compressed nor squashed in the protective packaging.

[0169] In addition, the protective packaging's storage space allows for up to three shirts at a time. The storage space also accommodates at least two pairs of trousers. It goes without saying that other items of clothing can also be accommodated in the storage space, in different quantities.

[0170] Depending on the number of items of clothing that are to be hung up in the storage room, the protective packaging provides a corresponding number of corresponding coat hangers.

[0171] As already explained above, the coat hangers are fitted into the receiving space of the protective packaging as an integral part of it.

[0172] At least one end face facing a hook of a coat hanger is adapted in shape and circumference to an outer circumference of the coat hanger.

[0173] This ensures that an air gap remains between the protective packaging and the garment placed on the hanger to allow ventilation.

[0174] Particularly in the area of ​​the end faces, the connections between the folding strips of the end faces and / or connecting areas between the end faces and the front and / or the back of the protective packaging are made in a manner that allows maximum expansion capacity of the end face.

[0175] In this respect, gluing the corresponding surfaces is not necessary.

[0176] In a further embodiment of the invention, the fiber-comprising material in the area of ​​the front and / or back and / or end faces of the protective packaging is designed, at least in some areas, to allow steam, in particular, to pass from the outside to the garment arranged in the receiving space via a perforated pattern. This allows the garment to be ironed in the receiving space, but it remains protected from heat that would destroy the material.

[0177] The protective packaging serves as a hangable ironing pad with a hole pattern. System for storing protective packaging for clothing

[0178] The invention provides a system for storing protective packaging for items of clothing, in which at least two protective packagings are detachably connected to one another at the end.

[0179] Two detachably connected protective packagings are detachably connected to each other via at least two end faces of the respective protective packaging, which are opposite each other along the longitudinal axis of the front face of the protective packaging.

[0180] In other words, another embodiment of the invention provides that at least two protective packaging units are detachably connected to each other via two end faces each. The two protective packaging units are connected to each other via the respective end faces, which each extend parallel to the longitudinal axis of the front faces of the protective packaging units.

[0181] It is also intended that the protective packaging be connected to each other in a rollable manner.

[0182] Another embodiment of the invention provides that the protective packaging is connected to one another in a stackable manner within the system for storing the same.

[0183] The system for storing protective packaging provides for two protective packaging units to be connected to each other via one end face each.

[0184] The areas where the end faces of the respective protective packaging are connected to each other preferably have perforation lines so that the individual protective packaging can be separated from each other.

[0185] Another embodiment of the invention provides that at least one end face includes a serrated perforation line. The serrated perforation line prevents a user of the protective packaging from injuring themselves on the otherwise sharp-edged, preferably lower end face. The serrated perforation line can be formed by separating two protective packaging pieces that were previously connected to each other, preferably at a perforation line.

[0186] When the connection between the two protective packaging is removed, the connections between the end faces and the front and / or back of the respective protective packaging remain undamaged.

[0187] The protective packaging can be connected to each other in the system of storing protective packaging in the form of an endless roll.

[0188] Likewise, the stackable protective packaging is connected to each other in an endless zigzag shape.

[0189] In the system for storing protective packaging for clothing, the connecting areas between the individual protective packaging – as already mentioned above – feature predetermined breaking points, preferably in the form of perforations. This ensures quick and effortless separation of the connections between the two protective packaging items.

[0190] When the interconnected protective packaging is separated from one another, the connections between the front and / or the back and / or the end faces of the respective protective packaging remain intact.

[0191] In one embodiment, a dispenser is provided. At least two interconnected protective packagings are rolled up on a roll in the dispenser.

[0192] The roller can be arranged transversely to the longitudinal axis of the front side. The roller can also be positioned parallel to the longitudinal axis of the front side.

[0193] One embodiment of the invention provides that a perforation line extends at least partially in the at least one end face and / or in the back face and / or in the front face.

[0194] In another embodiment of the invention, at least two perforation lines extend parallel to each other in at least one end face and / or in the back face and / or in the front face of the protective packaging.

[0195] The invention defines the term "perforation line" as multiple and / or serial perforations in the material. The perforation can, in particular, also form a perforation pattern.

[0196] According to the invention, the perforation line can be in the form of a slit and / or hole punched into the material. The perforation line can be provided for separating, preferably, a single protective packaging from a series of protective packaging.

[0197] The at least one end face, the back face and the front face can preferably, but not exclusively, each be connected to one another via a first connecting means.

[0198] In the at least one area where the at least one end face and / or the rear face and / or the front face overlap, preferably, but not exclusively, at least one first connecting means is arranged. The first connecting means can be a single-sided adhesive or a double-sided adhesive tape. Any other connecting means can also be used.

[0199] In the overlapping area, the first connecting means is preferably delimited on at least one side by a perforation line from the respective surrounding or adjacent end face or rear face or front face.

[0200] To separate the releasably connected overlapping areas of the front side, back side, or front side from each other, at least one perforation line is severed. If at least two perforation lines run parallel to each other, a defined strip is separated from the overlapping area by opening the adjacent perforation lines to separate the overlapping areas. A circumferential perforation line results in a defined area being separated from the overlapping area when the perforation line is severed.

[0201] To releasably reconnect the at least one end face, the back face, or the front face, which have previously been separated from each other, additional connecting means can be connected to each other. The additional connecting means are provided for mutual connection in the overlapping areas of the at least one end face, the back face, and / or the front face.

[0202] The further connecting means is preferably, but not exclusively, arranged parallel to the first connecting means.

[0203] The fastener can be an adhesive fastener or an adhesive strip. A re-bonding adhesive can also be used as a fastener.

[0204] When removing the protective packaging from the dispenser, at least two protective packaging pieces are connected to each other along a perforation line. At least two interconnected protective packaging pieces are pulled out of the dispenser, at least partially.

[0205] At the perforation line, the last protective packaging is separated from a series of protective packaging and sent for use.

[0206] The dispenser may include a skiving device for separating two adjacent perforation lines between two protective packaging.

[0207] Further examples and embodiments of the invention are described in more detail with reference to the drawing.

[0208] Here we show: Fig. 1 the protective packaging with coat hanger in perspective view, Fig. 2 the protective packaging seen from above with an opening in the upper end face Fig. 3 the protective packaging seen from the side with a lateral end face and a cutout, Fig. 4 the protective packaging in the unfolded state, with a back, two end faces and two halves of a front face, and Fig. 5 a pattern for the protective packaging.

[0220] Inside the protective packaging 1, a receiving space 14 is shown, which is designed to receive an item of clothing (not shown).

[0221] Fig. 3 shows the protective packaging 1 according to the Fig. 1.

[0222] The Fig. 3 shows the protective packaging 1 in a side view of the front side 3.

[0223] The end face 3 has a U-shaped fold area 15. Alternatively, the fold area 15 can be V-shaped. However, it can also have a different geometric shape.

[0224] In the folding area 15, a side fold 16 and a side fold 17 are shown adjacent to each other.

[0225] The two side folds 16, 17 are connected to each other by a keel line 18.

[0226] To change the volume of the receiving space 14, the distance between the front side 5 and the rear side 2 can be changed.

[0227] To change the distance between the back 2 and the front 5 of the protective packaging 1, the two side folds 16, 17 of the front side 3 are moved around the keel line 18 in the direction of the arrow 19.

[0228] In the same way, the receiving space 14 of the protective packaging 1 is reduced by the side folds 16, 17 of the front side 3 in the Fig. 3 to be moved towards each other in the keel line 18 opposite to the direction of the arrow 19.

[0229] A recess 9 can be seen between the end face 3, which connects the front side 5 with the back side 2 of the protective packaging 1 parallel to the longitudinal axis 6.

[0230] The item of clothing 21 can be seen in the receiving space 14 of the protective packaging 1 through the recess 9.

[0231] In the area 7 of the front side 8 of the protective packaging 1, the hook 10 of the coat hanger 11 protrudes from the opening 28 of the protective packaging 1.

[0234] The two end faces 3, 4 each comprise a side fold 16 and 17. The two side folds 16 and 17 are each connected to each other via a keel line 18.

[0235] The side folds 16, 17 can each be moved relative to each other in the direction of the arrow 19.

[0236] Fig. 5 essentially corresponds to the Fig. 4 and shows the protective packaging 1 in the unfolded state 22.

[0237] The reference number 2 represents the back of the protective packaging 1.

[0238] On both sides of the back 2, one half 23, 24 is shown.

[0239] The back side 2 is connected to the two halves 23, 24 of the front side 5 via a fold area 15 each.

[0240] Each fold area 15 includes a keel line 18.

[0241] The keel line 18 of the folding area 15 connects the side fold 16 with the side fold 17 in the respective folding area 15.

[0242] The two side folds 16, 17 of the respective folding area 15 are movable around the keel line 18 in and against the direction of the arrow 19.

[0243] The fold area 15 of at least one end face 3, 4, 8, 12 is preferably V-shaped, at least in part, in the area of ​​its keel line 18. However, it can also be arcuate, partially circular, or trapezoidal.

[0244] A V-shaped design preferably ensures that the protective packaging 1 is stored in the most space-saving way possible.

[0245] In contrast, an arcuate or partially circular or trapezoidal design of the folding area 15 results in improved and / or resilient flexibility of the protective packaging in the folding area 15.

[0246] In a folded state (not shown), the two halves 23, 24 of the front 5 of the protective packaging 1 in the example of Fig. 5 are preferably releasably connected to one another via an adhesive surface 25.

[0247] The Fig. 5 designated fold areas 15 are each assigned to one end face 3 and one end face 4.

[0248] The front side 3 and the front side 4 connect the back side 2 with the two halves 23, 24 of the front side 5 of the protective packaging.

[0249] In the direction of the longitudinal axis 6 of the front side 5, the end faces 8 are shown on the upper side 7 of the protective packaging 1.

[0250] The end faces 8 connect the rear side 2 with the halves 23, 24 of the front side 5 of the protective packaging 1 in the direction of the longitudinal axis 6.

[0251] In the Fig. 5, the end faces 8 comprise adhesive surfaces 26, which are provided for the preferably detachable connection of the rear side 2 with the halves 23, 24 of the front side 5.

[0252] In the area of ​​the upper side 7, the end faces 8 are interrupted by the recesses 9.

[0253] The recesses 9 are in the Fig. 5 on the top side 7 of the protective packaging 1 in the folding areas 15.

[0254] In the fold areas 15 on the top side 7 of the protective packaging, Fig. 5 punches 27 are made in the material 13 in the area of ​​the recesses 9.

[0255] The respective punching 27 enables the side folds 16, 17 to be opened and closed around the keel line 18 in and against the direction of the arrow 19, without restricting the freedom of movement of the side folds 16, 17 against each other, in particular by further adhesives.

[0256] The punched portions 27 expose the recesses 9 in the end faces 3, 4. The recesses 9 allow the user to identify the item of clothing 21 (not shown) arranged in the receiving space 14 (not shown) from the outside without having to open the protective packaging. The end faces 8 are interrupted by an opening 28 in the area of ​​the rear side 2.

[0257] The opening 28 is intended to guide the hook 10 of the coat hanger 11 (both not shown) out of the protective packaging 1.

[0258] In the Fig. 5 shows a connecting edge 29 on the top side 7 of the protective packaging 1.

[0259] The connecting edge 29 is formed as a perforation line 30.

[0260] In the system for storing protective packaging 1, the perforation line 30 of the connecting edge 29 serves to connect two protective packaging 1 which are detachably connected to one another along the longitudinal axis 6 of the front side 5.

[0261] The detachable connection of the two interconnected protective packagings 1 is ensured by the fact that the connecting edge 29 of the front side 8 is designed as a perforation line 30.
