Description

[0001] The invention relates to a presentation arrangement for displaying a door cylinder, in particular a double cylinder and / or knob cylinder, which includes packaging.

[0002] Door cylinders are used in door locks, for example, in a mortise lock on a door leaf to either lock the door against unauthorized opening or allow it to be opened. A door cylinder typically has a cylinder core that can be rotated with a key. This core contains several pins. When a key is inserted into a keyway in the cylinder core, springs in the housing pins align them with corresponding pins, allowing the cylinder core to rotate. If the key is not inserted, the housing pins engage with corresponding holes in the cylinder core, preventing rotation.

[0003] Door cylinders can also be designed as double cylinders, allowing them to be operated from both sides of the door leaf into which the cylinder is installed, using a key. Furthermore, a knob cylinder design is also possible, where such a cylinder is operated by a rotating knob on one side, while the opposite side requires a key. For example, such a knob cylinder can be used to lock or unlock a front door from the inside of the house by turning the knob, whereas the corresponding key may be required to operate the cylinder from the outside.

[0004] Therefore, door cylinders exist in numerous variations and require different configurations and dimensions to accommodate door leaves of varying thicknesses. When presenting door cylinders for sale, manufacturers strive to provide a way to view the cylinder, allowing users to immediately see or at least estimate its length without having to search for information on the packaging. This can be achieved, for example, by inserting the cylinder into transparent, opaque compartments within the packaging. These compartments hold the cylinder securely in place while simultaneously allowing a view of it. Blister packs with transparent plastic compartments for the cylinder are one such option.

[0005] However, only a limited selection of materials is available for such transparent recordings and packaging, meaning that the packaging cannot currently be made from sustainable materials and can only be manufactured using plastics. Furthermore, such plastic packaging is undesirably complex to produce and can also be difficult for the customer to handle when removing the door cylinder.

[0006] Therefore, it is an object of the invention to create a presentation arrangement for displaying a door cylinder in which the door cylinder is visible from the outside in order to be able to perceive or estimate the dimensions of the door cylinder, and which is easier to manufacture and handle.

[0007] This problem is solved by a presentation arrangement having the features of claim 1.

[0008] The packaging of the presentation arrangement according to the invention has a receptacle for the door cylinder, wherein the receptacle has lateral openings for the door cylinder to protrude laterally from the receptacle. In addition, the presentation arrangement has a fixing device for securing the door cylinder in the receptacle against slipping out laterally.

[0009] In particular, the presentation arrangement can thus include a receptacle for packaging into which the door cylinder can be inserted, allowing the door cylinder to be presented and offered for sale within the packaging. However, since the receptacle is not completely closed but has lateral openings, the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle can protrude laterally, so that the door cylinder—or at least the portion protruding from the receptacle—can be directly viewed from the outside. This allows, for example, the length of a portion protruding from the receptacle, especially the portions protruding from both sides of the receptacle, to be used to directly determine the dimensions or overall length of the door cylinder.This can, for example, allow for quick identification of the correct door cylinder for a specific door leaf of a given thickness, if several different door cylinders are offered on a single shelf in various presentation arrangements. Furthermore, the type of door cylinder, such as a double cylinder or a knob cylinder, can be immediately identified by sections protruding from the holder, without having to examine the packaging.

[0010] In particular, it may be designed so that the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle protrudes from openings on both sides of the receptacle. In this respect, a section of the door cylinder may be visible on both sides of the receptacle when the cylinder is inserted. Accordingly, the receptacle may have two openings through which the inserted door cylinder can protrude.

[0011] To allow the door cylinder to protrude laterally and be clearly visible, while simultaneously ensuring its reliable retention in the receptacle, the display arrangement incorporates a fixing device. This device is designed to secure the door cylinder within the receptacle, preventing it from slipping out laterally through the receptacle's side openings. In particular, the fixing device can also be designed to center the door cylinder within the receptacle, ensuring, for example, that the cylinder protrudes from the receptacle with equal sections on both sides, thus presenting it symmetrically within the display arrangement.In this respect, in particular, a center point of the receptacle with respect to a transverse direction connecting the lateral openings can coincide with a center point of the inserted door cylinder, so that a door cylinder designed symmetrically with respect to this transverse direction to the center point of the door cylinder can protrude laterally from the receptacle with sections of equal length.

[0012] The fixing device allows the door cylinder to be held in the receptacle, meaning the receptacle does not need to completely surround and enclose the cylinder, but can instead have lateral openings for the cylinder to protrude. This lateral protrusion, in turn, allows the cylinder to be accessed even if the receptacle itself is not transparent. Therefore, the receptacle, and especially the packaging, can be made from virtually any material and is not limited by the requirement of a transparent receptacle. This means that cardboard, corrugated board, or other sustainable materials can be used. Furthermore, cardboard packaging can facilitate easy handling, as the cylinder can be easily removed, for example, by simply tearing or cutting open the packaging or the receptacle.Furthermore, the production of such packaging can also be easier compared to conventional packaging, whereby, for example, a flat-packed package can be transformed into a usable state by simply folding and / or gluing, as explained in more detail below.

[0013] In particular, the packaging may therefore be designed as cardboard or carton packaging and / or the packaging may consist of cardboard and / or carton, in particular - apart from any adhesive material for gluing individual layers or strata of the packaging.

[0014] Furthermore, the presentation arrangement can, in principle, be formed by the packaging, into which the door cylinder can be inserted. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the presentation arrangement can also include the door cylinder itself, which can be inserted into the receptacle.

[0015] Further embodiments are explained in the dependent claims, the description and with reference to the figures.

[0016] In some embodiments, the fixing device can include a fixing opening formed on an outer wall of the receptacle, through which a fastening means, in particular a screw, for fixing the door cylinder in the receptacle can be passed and in particular screwed into a faceplate screw bore of the inserted door cylinder.

[0017] In such embodiments, it is therefore particularly possible to use a mounting screw bore already present in a door cylinder, with which the door cylinder can, for example, be fixed in a door leaf, also to fix the door cylinder in the receptacle of the packaging. For this purpose, a mounting opening can be provided on an outer wall of the receptacle, which can be arranged in such a way that, when the door cylinder is inserted, the mounting opening is aligned with its mounting screw bore, so that a fastening element inserted through the mounting opening into the receptacle can be inserted into the mounting screw bore, in particular screwed in, and the door cylinder can be secured in the receptacle against slipping out.

[0018] Furthermore, the door cylinder can be pulled against the outer wall of the receptacle by screwing in the fastener, or the fastener can be screwed in only to the extent that the door cylinder is secured against slipping out, but a housing section of the door cylinder containing the faceplate screw bore, in particular a flange section, is not pulled towards the outer wall. It can also be generally provided that an outer surface of the fastening opening facing away from the receptacle forms a bearing surface for a screw head of the fastener in order to achieve reliable fixation of the door cylinder.

[0019] Furthermore, it can generally be provided that the diameter of the screw-in hole corresponds to the diameter of a faceplate screw hole of the door cylinder.

[0020] In some embodiments, the outer wall can be formed by a rear wall of the packaging or by a front wall of the receiver.

[0021] For example, the fastening element can be inserted into the receptacle from a rear wall of the packaging, so that in such embodiments the fastening element for fixing the door cylinder may not be visible from a front of the presentation arrangement. Alternatively, however, it can also be provided that the fastening element can be inserted into the receptacle through a front wall of the receptacle, in order, for example, to be screwed into a faceplate screw hole of the door cylinder from the front and thereby fix the door cylinder.

[0022] In some embodiments, it may also be provided that a respective fastening opening is provided on both a rear wall of the packaging and on a front wall of the receiver in order to fix the door cylinder on both sides by means of respective inserted fastening means or a fastening means passed through both fastening openings and thereby in particular center it and secure it against any deflections.

[0023] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the receptacle may be formed by a rear wall of the packaging, and a second mounting opening may be provided on a front wall of the receptacle opposite the rear wall. A second mounting element and / or the mounting element for centering the door cylinder in the receptacle can be passed through this opening and, in particular, screwed into a faceplate screw hole (or the faceplate screw hole) of the inserted door cylinder. The second mounting opening may therefore also have a diameter corresponding to a faceplate screw hole of the door cylinder and / or, when the door cylinder is inserted and centered, be aligned with the faceplate screw hole of the door cylinder.

[0024] In some embodiments, the packaging may include a stabilizing device to stabilize the fixing of the door cylinder by the fastening means.

[0025] Particularly when fixing the door cylinder using a fastener that passes through an outer wall of the receptacle, the stability of the fixation ultimately depends on the stability of the fastener's guide. However, for example, the limits of the fixing opening can be subjected to mechanical stress during handling of the display assembly, such as during transport or when the assembly is set up to present the door cylinder. This stress can cause the fastener to deflect, potentially leading to wear and tear of the fixing opening. In turn, this can impair the reliable fixing and / or centering of the door cylinder in the receptacle.

[0026] The stabilizing device, on the other hand, can be designed in particular to protect the limits of the fastening opening surrounding the fastening element inserted into the receptacle from any loads and / or to strengthen these limits in order to achieve stable guidance of the fastening element and stable fixation of the door cylinder in the receptacle.

[0027] In some embodiments, the stabilizing device may include an external wall reinforcement for the outer wall.

[0028] In particular, such embodiments may provide for the outer wall to be reinforced by the stabilizing device, for example, to provide a reinforced and / or thickened outer wall in the area of ​​the mounting opening, so that the fastener can be inserted into the receptacle through such a reinforced area and thereby held securely. Specifically, the outer wall reinforcement may reinforce the entire outer wall or only a section in the immediate vicinity of the mounting opening to achieve the desired stabilization.

[0029] In some embodiments, the outer wall reinforcement can be formed on an inner side of the recess facing the inserted door cylinder.

[0030] In such embodiments, the outer wall reinforcement can therefore be concealed, in particular by the inserted door cylinder, and thus not visible from the outside, so that the outer wall reinforcement and / or the stabilizing device do not visually impair the packaging. Rather, the outer surface of the container or the outer wall can be completely smooth, so that a customer holding the display, for example, in their hand, will not notice the outer wall reinforcement on the inside.

[0031] In some embodiments, the outer wall can be formed by a first layer of packaging material which has the fastening opening, wherein the stabilizing device, as outer wall reinforcement, can comprise a second layer of packaging material lying against the inside of the outer wall, wherein the second layer can have a further fastening opening which can be aligned with the fastening opening of the first layer. Furthermore, the fastening means for fixing the door cylinder can be passed through the fastening opening and the further fastening opening.

[0032] In such embodiments, the stabilizing device can therefore, in particular, provide a double-layered boundary of the receptacle on its outer wall, so that the fastening element can, in a sense, be passed through a thicker layer of packaging material - a double layer - in order to achieve more stable guidance of the fastening element.

[0033] In some embodiments, the second layer can form a local outer wall reinforcement in a stabilizing section of the receptacle surrounding the mounting opening, whereas the receptacle in sections extending laterally beyond the stabilizing section can be limited by a single layer of the outer wall.

[0034] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the second layer can be folded down towards the outer wall from a base section of the receptacle, on which the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle is supported at its underside. In such embodiments, the base section of the receptacle can therefore have an opening, particularly in the area from which the second layer is folded down to reinforce the outer wall. However, this opening can also be covered, particularly from above by the inserted door cylinder and from below by other components of the packaging, and therefore not be visible from the outside.

[0035] In some embodiments, the packaging can be provided flat in an initial state and can be brought into a state of use by folding, whereby the second layer of packaging material can be brought into alignment with the first layer of packaging material by folding.

[0036] Providing the packaging in a flat initial state can facilitate the transport and storage of large quantities of packages, as they can be stacked at a low height. Folding the packaging from its initial state into its usable state also allows for easy assembly, with the option of additionally gluing different sections of the packaging together.

[0037] In some embodiments, the first layer can form a rear wall of the packaging, and the second layer can be formed by a flap that can be folded open on the inside of the receptacle facing the inserted door cylinder. As already explained, the flap can, in particular, be folded open from a bottom section of the receptacle towards the rear wall of the packaging, in order to align the additional mounting opening with the mounting opening.

[0038] Alternatively or additionally to such a second layer, the stabilizing device in some embodiments may also include a limiting reinforcement to strengthen the boundary of the mounting opening. For example, the stabilizing device may have a reinforcing ring, made of metal or plastic, which can be inserted and / or clipped into the mounting opening to reinforce the boundary of the mounting opening all around. In such embodiments, the fastener can therefore be inserted into the receptacle through a reinforcing ring in order to transfer any forces to the reinforcing ring and prevent direct interaction with the boundary of the mounting opening.

[0039] Furthermore, as an alternative to folding over a flap or attaching a second layer of packaging material by folding, a second layer of packaging material can also be glued to the outer wall, and especially its inner side, as reinforcement. In some embodiments, the packaging can also be placed on the base of the storage box. This can offer an alternative to hanging the packaging from designated hanging points, thus expanding the possibilities for displaying the door cylinder.

[0040] In general, the packaging can therefore be suspended and / or stood upright in some embodiments. To enable suspension, the packaging can, in particular, have one or more, especially two, suspension openings arranged above the mounting point. Two laterally offset suspension openings can be provided, especially for long door cylinders to be presented, in order to prevent the suspended packaging from tipping over.

[0041] In some embodiments, the receptacle can be limited by a rear wall of the packaging and a boundary section extending along a top and a front of the inserted door cylinder, the packaging also having a bottom section on which the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle can be supported on an underside.

[0042] In such embodiments, the limiting section can form a kind of belt to surround the inserted door cylinder or a part of the inserted door cylinder that does not protrude laterally from the receptacle and thereby hold it in the receptacle. In particular, in such embodiments, four of the six sides of the door cylinder can thus be enclosed by the packaging, whereas the door cylinder extends out of the receptacle on the remaining two sides, but can be secured against slipping out by the fixing device.

[0043] In some embodiments, the packaging may have a display section arranged below the receiver in a state of use, which may have a measuring scale for measuring the length of the inserted door cylinder.

[0044] In such embodiments, the length of the door cylinder can be read from the measuring scale. The measuring scale can be positioned, in particular, directly below the section(s) of the door cylinder protruding laterally from the receptacle, so that the length of the door cylinder can be read without difficulty. For example, such embodiments can therefore make it possible, even from a greater distance, to pre-select from various presented door cylinders based on the protruding cylinder(s) from the receptacle, with regard to a door cylinder potentially suitable for a particular application, in order to then check, using the measuring scale, which door cylinder actually has the correct length in the relevant presentation arrangements.In this respect, the selection of a suitable door cylinder from a large number of door cylinders presented in various display arrangements can be made easier and faster.

[0045] In some embodiments, the packaging may include a storage box for holding operating instructions and / or at least one key for the door cylinder, wherein the storage box may be arranged, in particular, below the storage compartment in a used state of the presentation arrangement. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the storage box may also be formed, in particular, by folding a package that is flat in its initial state.

[0046] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the aforementioned display section can be arranged on the front of the storage box, so that the storage box can be used on the one hand to store the instruction manual and / or the key, but its front can also be used to check the length of the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle.

[0047] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the packaging can be placed on the base of the storage box. This can offer an alternative to hanging the packaging from the respective hanging openings, thus expanding the possibilities for presenting the door cylinder.

[0048] In general, the packaging can therefore be suspended and / or stood upright in some embodiments. To enable the packaging to be suspended, it can, in particular, have one or more, especially exactly one or exactly two, suspension openings arranged above the mounting point. Two laterally offset suspension openings can be provided, especially for long door cylinders to be presented, in order to prevent the suspended packaging from tipping over.

[0049] In some embodiments, the receptacle can be arranged centrally or off-center with respect to the longitudinal extent of the door cylinder inserted or to be inserted into the receptacle on the packaging.

[0050] In particular, the receptacle can be arranged on the packaging such that a mounting opening and / or the center point of the receptacle is aligned with a faceplate screw bore of a door cylinder to be inserted, and the door cylinder can be positioned within the packaging by insertion such that the center of gravity of the door cylinder, with respect to a longitudinal axis of the inserted door cylinder, lies in the center of the packaging. This can, in particular, make it possible to suspend the presentation arrangement from a centrally aligned suspension opening without the packaging tilting, whereby the arrangement of the receptacle can be adapted to a specific door cylinder and its center of gravity relative to the faceplate screw bore.

[0051] In some embodiments, the packaging can be provided flat in an initial state and can be transformed into a state of use by folding, in which the receptacle is formed, wherein the packaging in the initial state can in particular be provided as a stamped part.

[0052] As already explained, in some embodiments it may also be necessary to glue one or more sections of the packaging together to finally bring the packaging into the state of use.

[0053] In some embodiments, the packaging may have a back wall section which, in the used state, forms a back wall of the packaging, wherein the back wall section may be connected to a structural section of the packaging by a crease line, in particular a fold. Furthermore, the opening can be formed by folding the structural section.

[0054] In such embodiments, the packaging, which is flat in its initial state, can be divided, in particular by the fold line, into the back wall section on the one hand and the structural section on the other, wherein the structural section can in particular have further fold lines in order to give the packaging the structure desired in the state of use, in particular with the receiving, by folding along the fold lines.

[0055] In general, one, a selection of several or all of the crease lines mentioned below can be formed by respective folds to enable precise and easy folding of the packaging.

[0056] In some embodiments, the rear wall section may have a mounting opening through which a fastening element for securing the door cylinder in the receptacle can be inserted. In particular, this may be the aforementioned mounting opening through which a fastening element of the fixing device can be inserted into the receptacle from the rear, and thus through the rear wall of the packaging.

[0057] Therefore, in some embodiments, the rear wall section can form the aforementioned outer wall of the receiver.

[0058] In some embodiments, the structural section may include a support section that is foldable relative to the rear wall section. Both the support section and the rear wall section may have suspension openings that can be aligned with each other by folding, and the display arrangement may be suspended from these suspension openings. In particular, the packaging may therefore be two-layered in the area where the support section extends, with the suspension openings, defined by the two layers, enabling stable and reliable suspension of the packaging or the display arrangement, especially when a door cylinder is inserted into the receptacle.

[0059] In some embodiments, one or two suspension openings can be provided on the rear wall section and the support section. In particular, embodiments with two suspension openings can allow the packaging to be suspended at two suspension points, for example, to secure display arrangements with heavy or long door cylinders against tipping.

[0060] In some embodiments, the support section may have a U-shaped recess, wherein a boundary section of the packaging may be held on the underside of the U-shaped recess facing the fold line and connected to the support section by an underside fold line. The boundary section may further be foldable along the underside fold line relative to the support section, and may be subdivided by a further fold line into a top section and a front section that is foldable along the further fold line relative to the top section. The top section may be configured to extend along the top side of the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle in the state of use, whereas the front section may be configured to extend along the front side of the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle in the state of use.

[0061] The limiting section can therefore be, in particular, the limiting section already mentioned above, which can encircle the door cylinder in the receptacle in a manner similar to a belt, in order to hold the door cylinder in the receptacle. The arrangement, or at least partial arrangement, of the limiting section in the U-shaped recess of the support section can, in particular, make it possible to fold the limiting section out of the support section, so that the upper section (in the state of use) can extend essentially perpendicular to the support section, whereas the front section (in the state of use) can extend essentially parallel to the support section.

[0062] In some embodiments, the front section may have a second mounting opening through which a second fastening element and / or the aforementioned fastening element for centering the door cylinder in the receptacle can be passed and, in particular, screwed into a faceplate screw hole of the inserted door cylinder. In particular, this allows for the aforementioned two-sided fixing of the door cylinder in the receptacle and / or the front section can form a front wall of the receptacle.

[0063] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the limiting section can be held centrally or off-center on the support section. As already explained, this can allow for alignment with the respective door cylinder to be used, such that the center of gravity of the door cylinder coincides with the center of gravity of the packaging.

[0064] In some embodiments, the front section can transition into a display section, which, with respect to its width perpendicular to the vertical direction leading from the rear section to the structural section in the initial state, can be wider than the front section. In particular, the display section can have a width corresponding to that of the support section. In a sense, this widening from the front section to the display section allows the packaging to transition from the narrower opening, which allows the door cylinder to protrude laterally, back to a standard packaging width.

[0065] In some embodiments, the display section may include a measuring scale for measuring the length of the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle and protruding laterally from it. This measuring scale may, in turn, be positioned directly below the front section (in the operating state) to allow for easy reading of the door cylinder's length.

[0066] In some embodiments, the display section can be connected to a rear section by a lower bottom section, wherein the lower bottom section can be connected to the display section by a first bottom fold line and to the rear section by a second bottom fold line. Furthermore, the rear section can be brought into contact with the rear section by folding the packaging along the first bottom fold line and along the second bottom fold line.

[0067] Furthermore, the lower bottom section can, in particular when viewed along the aforementioned vertical direction, have a length corresponding to the aforementioned upper top section of the recording, so that the display section in the operating state can extend in particular parallel to the rear wall section and the lower bottom section can extend parallel to the upper top section.

[0068] In some embodiments, the lower base section can be oriented essentially perpendicular to the display section in the operating state. Furthermore, in the operating state, the display section, the lower base section, and the rear section can define a storage box for holding an instruction manual and / or at least one key.

[0069] By allowing the lower bottom section, as explained above, to have a length corresponding to the upper section of the boundary section, the storage box can thus be designed with a depth corresponding to the receiving area. Furthermore, orienting the lower bottom section perpendicular to the display section can make it possible to place the packaging on the lower bottom section to present an inserted door cylinder, particularly as an alternative to presentation when the packaging is suspended.

[0070] In some embodiments, the display section, the lower bottom section, and / or the rear section can be connected by respective folding lines to laterally extending closure sections, allowing the storage box to be closed laterally by folding these closure sections. In particular, the storage box can therefore be closed like a package by folding over the respective closure sections.

[0071] In some embodiments, the rear section may be glued to the back panel section in its used state. Therefore, the packaging may also be double-layered in the area of ​​the rear section in its used state.

[0072] In some embodiments, the rear section can be connected to a bottom section by a receiving fold line. This bottom section can be folded along the receiving fold line into an orientation substantially perpendicular to the rear section and can be configured to form a base of the receptacle in the operating state, supporting the inserted door cylinder against its underside. The bottom section can therefore be, in particular, the aforementioned bottom section.

[0073] Furthermore, in embodiments with a storage box, the bottom section can be designed to define the upper edge of the storage box. In particular, the bottom section can also be connected via a folding line to a closure section, especially one on each side, whereby the storage box can be closed by folding the closure section in conjunction with the other closure sections.

[0074] In some embodiments, a tab can be formed on the bottom section, which is connected to the rear section at the receiving fold line and which, in the operating state, can be brought into contact with the rear section. The tab can also have an additional mounting opening, which, in the operating state, can be aligned with a mounting opening of the rear section. As already explained, by folding the tab relative to the bottom section, an outer wall reinforcement can be formed to reliably support a fastening element for securing the door cylinder, which is guided through the mounting opening and the additional mounting opening.

[0075] In some embodiments, the base section can be connected by a fastening fold line to a fastening section, which, in the operating state, can be attached, in particular glued, to an inner wall of the display section. By attaching or gluing the fastening section to an inner wall of the display section in this way, the packaging, and in particular the aforementioned storage box, can be reliably closed so that all sections can be arranged according to the desired orientation in the operating state.

[0076] In some embodiments, the lower bottom section and the bottom section can be aligned in the operating state, with the door cylinder not inserted into the receptacle, in a position essentially parallel to the rear wall section, thereby allowing the packaging to be folded flat for transport. In particular, this can also involve straightening the aforementioned limiting section at the further fold line to compensate for any protrusion of the receptacle beyond the support section during transport of the packaging.

[0077] For example, the packaging can be converted into its transport state by pulling or pushing the display section away from the support section. Providing such a transport state makes it possible, in particular, to pre-assemble the packaging almost completely, especially except for folding over any closure sections, and, for example, to pre-glue sections of the packaging that are to be glued together, while still allowing the packaging to be transported or stored in a flat transport state without requiring excessive space. However, the packaging can be easily converted back from the transport state to its use state by simply moving it back, so that the door cylinder can be inserted into the receptacle as needed and, in appropriate embodiments, a storage box can be filled, allowing the display arrangement to then be used to present the door cylinder.

[0078] In some embodiments, the length of the structural section may be approximately twice the length of the back wall section, and in particular, the length of the structural section may be 1.5 to 2.5 times or 1.8 to 2.2 times the length of the back wall section. In particular, the length may be measured along the aforementioned vertical direction.

[0079] In some embodiments, the presentation arrangement may further include an insert into which the door cylinder can be inserted. With the door cylinder in place, the insert may be placed into the receptacle of the packaging and may have an opening for securing the insert, into which a fastening means for fixing the door cylinder in the receptacle can be inserted.

[0080] In particular, the fastening element can be screwed into the insert mounting opening after the insert has been placed in the receptacle. Furthermore, it can be provided that, when the insert is in place, the insert mounting opening aligns with the aforementioned mounting opening on an outer wall of the receptacle, so that the door cylinder can be secured in the receptacle via the insert.

[0081] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the insert cannot extend laterally out of the receptacle. Therefore, in such embodiments, the insert can be designed to accommodate only a central section of the door cylinder positioned within the receptacle, without itself being visible outside the receptacle. An insert dimensioned in this way can thus be used and inserted into the receptacle without impairing the presentation of the door cylinder and, in particular, the sections of the door cylinder protruding from the receptacle.

[0082] In some embodiments, the door cylinder can have a cylinder shape with a core receiving section that is essentially circular in cross-section for receiving a rotatable cylinder core and a flange section projecting radially from the core receiving section for receiving at least one housing pin and at least one housing spring. The insert can further have an insertion recess into which the flange section can be inserted with essentially no play, and the insert, when the door cylinder is inserted, can extend perpendicularly to the flange section at least to the outermost section of the core receiving section located perpendicular to the flange section. In addition, the insert can have a straight back wall with which the insert, when inserted into the receptacle, can be supported against an outer wall of the receptacle.

[0083] In particular, the insert can effectively straighten the shape of the door cylinder, so that after inserting the cylinder into the insert, the entire assembly with a straight back wall can be inserted into the receptacle. This allows the straight back wall of the insert to be pulled against a straight outer wall of the receptacle, especially by inserting the fastener, thus achieving a stable fixation of the door cylinder in the receptacle. This prevents any tilting moments from being transmitted to the limits of the mounting opening due to deflection of the fastener, as such moments can be dissipated via the straight, adjacent surfaces of the insert and the receptacle.

[0084] Such an insert can therefore serve in particular to stabilize the fixing of the door cylinder in the receptacle and thus form a component of the aforementioned stabilizing device.

[0085] Furthermore, the flange section can be curved and / or arc-shaped on an underside opposite the core receiving section. Similarly, the insertion recess in such embodiments can be curved and / or arc-shaped on an underside.

[0086] In some embodiments, the mounting opening of the insert can align with a faceplate screw bore formed in the flange section when the door cylinder is inserted, whereby the fastening means for fixing the door cylinder in the receptacle can be inserted through the mounting opening of the insert into the faceplate screw bore. In such embodiments, the fastening means can also pull the door cylinder against a limit of the insert to ensure reliable fixation of the door cylinder.

[0087] In some embodiments, the insert can have a second mounting opening opposite the first. The insert itself can therefore also be provided with two opposing mounting openings to allow the insert, and thus the door cylinder, to be fixed in the receptacle from two opposite sides.

[0088] In some embodiments, the insert part may have a locking lug, in particular an elastically deformable one, which is designed to engage in a locking lug recess of the door cylinder when the door cylinder is inserted and to secure the door cylinder in the insert part.

[0089] In particular, the door cylinder can have a locking lug that extends radially beyond the aforementioned core receiving section and is rotatable by rotating a cylinder core held in the core receiving section, for example, to drive a bolt of a door lock. To enable this, the housing of the door cylinder can have a locking lug recess in which the locking lug can move during such rotation. In particular, such a locking lug recess can point towards the flange section and / or – in the operating state of the door cylinder – be located above a faceplate screw bore. Furthermore, in a door cylinder designed as a double cylinder, the locking lug can be located, in particular, centrally between two halves of the double cylinder, so that when the lock cylinder is inserted into the receptacle, the locking lug can also be located centrally in the receptacle.

[0090] The locking lug recess can create an edge on the door cylinder or its housing, which may face the core receiving section and against which the locking lug engages to prevent the cylinder from being removed from the insert. Due to an elastically deformable design of the locking lug, it can also be displaced and / or compressed when the cylinder is inserted into the insert. However, after the cylinder is fully inserted, it snaps back against the elastic deformation and engages an edge formed on the locking lug recess. To further facilitate the insertion of the cylinder, the locking lug may also have a displacement ramp facing the cylinder being inserted.

[0091] In some embodiments, a key for operating the door cylinder may be assigned to it, whereby the locking lug of the door cylinder may be deflected out of the locking lug recess when the key is removed. The locking lug may further be designed to engage in the locking lug recess on the opposite side of the deflected locking lug.

[0092] In such embodiments, the deflection of the locking lug out of the locking lug recess can create a space on the side opposite the deflected locking lug that is not occupied by the locking lug and can therefore be cleverly used for the engagement of the locking lug.

[0093] In some embodiments, the insert part can have a through-opening opposite the locking lug for the arrangement of the deflected locking lug. In particular, this allows a space to be created in the insert part into which the deflected locking lug can engage after the door cylinder has been inserted.

[0094] In some embodiments, the insert component can be a 3D-printed part. In particular, the insert component can therefore have a layered structure, allowing it to be built up successively through individual layers created using a 3D printing process. Such a 3D printing process can, in particular, enable the production of insert components of any desired and varied shape, allowing them to be easily manufactured to correspond with the respective door cylinder being presented. Furthermore, sustainable materials can be used in such a process to create an overall sustainable presentation arrangement.

[0095] In some embodiments, the presentation arrangement may further include the door cylinder, which may be designed in particular as a double cylinder and / or as a knob cylinder. The door cylinder may also be inserted into the receptacle and extend laterally out of the receptacle, in particular on both sides.

[0096] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the presentation arrangement may include a key for the door cylinder, which may be contained in a storage box of the packaging located below the receptacle.

[0097] The foregoing has described in particular various embodiments in which a fastening element for securing the door cylinder can be inserted into the receptacle through a respective fastening opening in the packaging and / or the receptacle. For the sake of completeness, however, it should be noted that a fastening opening preformed in the packaging for securing the door cylinder by means of a fastening element is by no means mandatory. A fastening element and / or a screw can, for example, simply be inserted and / or screwed through the packaging material in order to engage, for instance, a faceplate screw hole in the door cylinder and / or the aforementioned fastening opening of the insert part, thereby securing the door cylinder in the receptacle. This too is covered by the fundamental concept of the present disclosure.

[0098] The invention further relates to an insert for receiving a door cylinder, which can be inserted into a receptacle of packaging for a presentation arrangement of the type disclosed above. The insert can have an insert mounting opening into which a fastening means for fixing the door cylinder in the receptacle can be inserted.

[0099] As explained above, such an insert can in particular form a component of a stabilizing device of a presentation arrangement of the type described above, but can also be provided independently of the packaging described above in order to work together with the packaging and to fix the door cylinder in the receptacle.

[0100] In some embodiments, the mounting opening of the insert can be designed to align with a faceplate screw bore formed on a flange section of the door cylinder when the cylinder is inserted. Furthermore, the mounting opening of the insert can, in particular, have a diameter corresponding to the diameter of the faceplate screw bore, so that a fastener passing through the mounting opening can be inserted directly into the faceplate screw bore to fix the door cylinder in the insert.

[0101] In some embodiments, the door cylinder can have a cylinder shape with a core receiving section that is essentially circular in cross-section for receiving a rotatable cylinder core and a flange section projecting radially from the core receiving section for receiving at least one housing pin and at least one housing spring. The insert can have an insertion recess into which the flange section can be inserted with essentially no play. When the door cylinder is inserted, the insert can extend perpendicularly to the flange section at least to the outermost section of the core receiving section, and the insert can have a straight back wall designed to bear against an outer wall of the packaging when the insert is inserted.

[0102] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the insert part may have a locking lug, in particular an elastically deformable one, which is designed to engage in a locking lug recess of the door cylinder when the door cylinder is inserted and to secure the door cylinder in the insert part.

[0103] Furthermore, the insert can be a 3D printed component.

[0104] Furthermore, one or more of the features of the insert part or the door cylinder that can be inserted therein may be implemented in the insert part disclosed here, which have already been explained above in connection with the presentation arrangement.

[0105] The invention is explained below by way of example with reference to the drawings.

[0106] They show: Fig. 1 a door cylinder designed as a double cylinder, Fig. 2 a packaging of a presentation arrangement with a receptacle into which the door cylinder can be inserted, Fig. 3A and Fig. 3B respective representations of packaging in an initial state which can be transformed into a state of use by folding, in which the recess for receiving the door cylinder is formed, Fig. 4A and Fig. 4B a perspective view as well as a front view of an insert for holding the door cylinder and Fig. 5 a perspective view of another embodiment of the insert for receiving the door cylinder.

[0107] Fig. Figure 1 shows the basic structure of an exemplary double cylinder 81, which extends along a longitudinal axis L and comprises a first single cylinder 11 and a second single cylinder 61. The single cylinders 11 and 61 are connected to each other via a connecting bridge 59. Such a cylinder 81 can, for example, be designed to be inserted into a mortise lock of a door or into a door leaf to allow the door to be locked or unlocked from either side. To fix the cylinder 81 axially with respect to the longitudinal axis L in such a mortise lock, the connecting bridge 59 has a screw hole 69, so that the double cylinder 81 inserted into the mortise lock can be prevented from being pulled out by inserting a screw (not shown) into the screw hole 69.

[0108] To enable the double cylinder 81 to be used for locking or unlocking, for example, a door, a respective cylinder core 31 is inserted into a respective outer housing 21 of the single door cylinders 11 or 61, which is rotatably mounted in a cylindrical core receiving section 23 of the outer housing 21. The cylinder cores 31 have respective key insertion openings 75 to allow the insertion of a suitable key (not shown) and the rotation of the cylinder cores 31 to selectively lock or unlock a door.

[0109] Furthermore, a rotation of the cylinder cores 31 can be transferred to a locking lug 73 of the door cylinder 81, for example to move a bolt of a mortise lock. The locking lug 73 projects radially beyond the core receiving sections 31 and is guided in a locking lug recess 33, but is deflected outwards relative to a flange section 25 of the door cylinder 81 when the key is removed.

[0110] To prevent the outer casings 21 of the individual door cylinders 11 and 61 from rotating during a locking operation and to ensure that the door cylinder 81 is mounted in a mortise lock in a rotationally fixed manner, the outer casings 21 have, in addition to the cylindrical core receiving section 23, a flange section 25 projecting radially away from it with respect to the longitudinal axis L. Furthermore, housing pins, pre-tensioned by housing springs in the direction of the associated cylinder core 31, can be mounted in the flange section 25. When the key is removed, these housing pins engage in bores in the cylinder core 31 and block the cylinder core 31 against rotation. By inserting the associated key into the key insertion openings 75, the core pins mounted in the cylinder core 31 can be aligned, and the housing pins can be forced out of the cylinder core 31 and into the flange section 25, whereupon the cylinder core 31 can be rotated by means of the key.The core receiving section 23 and the flange section therefore form a conventional door cylinder shape 147.

[0111] Such door cylinders 81, which are designed in various ways, particularly with different lengths, can in principle be used in a multitude of applications, for example, to be inserted into door leaves of varying thicknesses and used to lock the respective door. When such door cylinders 81 are presented, it is therefore necessary for potential buyers to be able to directly ascertain a dimension or length along the longitudinal axis L in order to select potentially suitable door cylinders 81 from the multitude of different door cylinders presented.

[0112] However, this often necessitates presenting door cylinder 81 in transparent packaging, for which only a limited selection of materials is available, meaning such packaging must usually be made of transparent plastic. Manufacturing from sustainable materials is generally not possible. Furthermore, such plastic packaging can be unduly complex to produce and may be unreasonably difficult for a customer to open.

[0113] Fig. Figure 2 therefore illustrates a presentation arrangement 13 with a packaging 15 in which a presentation of the door cylinder 81 or any other door cylinder can take place without the door cylinder 81 having to be included in a closed receptacle.

[0114] Rather, the packaging 15 has a receptacle 17 into which the double cylinder 81 can be inserted, the receptacle 17 having lateral openings 19 so that the double cylinder 81 inserted into the receptacle 17 protrudes from both sides of the receptacle 17 and can be directly seen and viewed from the outside of the packaging 15. To secure the door cylinder 81 inserted into the receptacle 17 and reliably hold it in place, the packaging 15 has a fixing device 35 designed to prevent the door cylinder 81 from slipping laterally out of the receptacle 17.

[0115] In the embodiment illustrated here, the fixing device 35 particularly comprises a fastening opening 39 formed on an outer wall 37 of the receptacle 17, through which a fastening element (not shown in the figures) can be inserted and into the receptacle 17 (see also Fig. 3A and Fig. 3B). Furthermore, the fastening element, in particular a screw, can be screwed into the aforementioned faceplate screw hole 69 when the door cylinder 81 is inserted into the receptacle 17, in order to secure the door cylinder 81 in the receptacle 17. Additionally, a second fastening opening 45 is provided on a front wall 43 of the receptacle 17 opposite the outer wall 37, which is formed by a rear wall 41 of the packaging 15. A second fastening element, also not shown in the figures, can be passed through this opening and inserted into the receptacle 17, so that the double cylinder 81 can be fixed on both sides in the receptacle 17 and thus held stably and centered.As an alternative to a second fastening means, it can also be provided that the fastening means inserted through the fastening opening 39 are inserted through the fastening opening 39 and the faceplate screw bore 69 of the inserted door cylinder 81 into the second fastening opening 45 in order to achieve a fixing and centering of the door cylinder 81 on both sides.

[0116] The packaging 15 of the presentation arrangement 13 thus makes it possible to insert the door cylinder 81 in such a way that sections of the door cylinder 81 protruding laterally from the receptacle 17 can be directly visible. The fixing device 35, in turn, prevents the door cylinder 81 from slipping out, so that the receptacle 17 does not have to completely surround the door cylinder 81 and therefore does not have to be transparent.

[0117] While the door cylinder 81 can thus protrude laterally from the receptacle 17, the receptacle 17, in addition to the aforementioned rear wall 41 or outer wall 37, has a boundary section 79 with a top section 117 extending above the inserted door cylinder 81 and a front section 119 extending along a front face 120 of the inserted door cylinder 81, which forms the aforementioned front wall 43 of the receptacle 17. Furthermore, a bottom section 65 is provided in the packaging 15 to support the door cylinder 81 on its underside 83 within the receptacle 17. Therefore, the inserted door cylinder 81 can ultimately be enclosed and held by the receptacle 17 on four of the six sides of the room, with the complete fixing of the door cylinder 81 being achieved by the fixing device 35.The limiting section 79 forms, in a sense, a belt enclosing the door cylinder 81, which, due to the fixing of the door cylinder 81 to the faceplate screw bore 69 in the receptacle 17, only covers a central section of the door cylinder 81 inserted into the receptacle 17, whereas the laterally protruding sections remain visible.

[0118] Furthermore, a display section 93 is provided below the door cylinder 81 inserted into the receptacle 17. This display section has a measuring scale 95, from which the actual length of the door cylinder 81 can be read directly. This allows a potential buyer to first make a preliminary selection of door cylinders that may be suitable for a particular application based on the visible part of the door cylinder 81, and then, based on this preliminary selection, to directly select the door cylinder 81 that is actually required by reading the measuring scale 95.

[0119] Furthermore, the display section 93 forms part of a storage box 97 located below the recording 17, into which, for example, an instruction manual and / or a key (not shown) associated with the door cylinder 81 can be inserted.

[0120] Since the presentation arrangement 13 with the packaging 15 thus offers a way to visibly present the door cylinder 81 within the packaging 15 without the door cylinder 81 having to be completely enclosed in a recess, the limiting section 79 in particular does not necessarily have to be made of a transparent material. Even if a central section of the door cylinder 81 is covered by the faceplate screw bore 69, the dimensions, length, and / or design of the door cylinder 81 can still be seen. Therefore, any material can be used for the packaging 15, so that the packaging 15 can, for example, also be made of cardboard or corrugated board without restricting the presentation of the door cylinder 81 within the packaging 15.

[0121] However, the construction of the packaging 15 from cardboard or corrugated board presents a particular problem: any deflection of a fastening element guided through the fastening opening 39 or the second fastening opening 45 can lead to a force transmission to the limits of the fastening openings 39 and 45, and thus to damage to these limits, which can, for example, result in the fastening openings 39 and 45 becoming loose. This, in turn, can impair the reliable fixation of the door cylinder in the receptacle 17.

[0122] To address this problem, the following approach is used: Fig. 2 illustrated presentation arrangement 13 further provides a stabilizing device 47 which is designed to stabilize the fixing of the door cylinder in the receptacle 17 through the fastening opening 39.

[0123] Based on Fig. In the embodiment illustrated in Figure 2, the stabilizing device 47 has, in particular, an outer wall reinforcement 49 for reinforcing the outer wall 37 in a stabilizing section surrounding the mounting opening 39. The outer wall reinforcement 49 is formed, for example, by a tab 71 that can be folded away from the base section 65 and which has a further mounting opening 63 that can be brought into alignment with the mounting opening 39 on the outer wall 37 by folding the tab 71 over.In this respect, the stabilizing device 47, in addition to a first layer 53 of packaging material formed by the rear wall 41 of the packaging 15 and thus the outer wall 37, provides a second layer 55 of packaging material in the form of the folded-over flap 71. This ensures that the fastening element for fixing the door cylinder 81 in the receptacle 17 is ultimately guided through two layers – layers 53 and 55 – of packaging material, thus stabilizing the fixing of the door cylinder 81. The flap 71 therefore defines, in a sense, a local stabilizing section around the fixing opening 39, in which the reinforcement of the outer wall 37 takes place.

[0124] By folding over the tab 71 in this way, the outer wall reinforcement 49 can be easily installed, and in particular without the need to attach an additional element or component to the packaging 15. Although this creates an opening 66 in the base section 65, from which the tab 71 is folded out, the door cylinder 81 can still be stably supported on the base section 65 due to its lateral projection. Furthermore, folding over the tab 71 in this way allows the outer wall reinforcement 49 to be positioned on an inner surface 51 of the receptacle 17, which, when the door cylinder 81 is inserted, is concealed by the door cylinder 81 and therefore not visible from the outside. In this way, the stabilizing device 47 and the outer wall reinforcement 49 can be formed without affecting the presentation of the door cylinder 81 in the packaging 15 or the visible visual design of the packaging 15.

[0125] The Fig. Figures 4A to 5 further illustrate that the stabilizing device 47 – alternatively or additionally to the outer wall reinforcement 49 – can have an insert 139, wherein in the Fig. 4A and Fig. 4B a first embodiment of the insert part 139 and based on Fig. Figure 5 illustrates a second embodiment of the insert part 139.

[0126] How Fig. As shown in Figure 4A, the insert part 139 has an insertion recess 145, which is modeled on the door cylinder shape 147 and into which, in particular, the flange section 25 of the door cylinder 81 can be inserted essentially without play. Furthermore, according to the embodiment of the Fig. 4A and Fig. 4B a support 155 for the core receiving section 23 of the door cylinder 81, on which the core receiving section 23 of the inserted door cylinder 81 can be supported.

[0127] Furthermore, the insert 139 extends to a section 140 of the core receiving section 21 that is located at its outermost perpendicular to the flange section 25 and has a straight insert back wall 151, so that by inserting the door cylinder 81 into the insertion opening 145 of the insert 139, the door cylinder shape 147 is ultimately straightened, and the arrangement of the door cylinder 81 and the insert 139 provides an arrangement with a straight insert back wall 151. The arrangement consisting of the insert 139 and the door cylinder 81 can therefore be supported by the insert back wall 151 against the outer wall 37 of the receptacle 17 when the insert 139 and the door cylinder 81 inserted therein are placed into the receptacle 17.This also allows for a stabilized fixing of the door cylinder 81 in the receptacle 17, by transferring any tilting moments from the insert's rear wall 151 to the outer wall 37 over a surface area, in order to protect the limits of the fixing openings 39, 45 and 63 from damage.

[0128] Furthermore, the insert 139 has an insert mounting opening 141 and a second insert mounting opening 143, which are designed to align with the mounting opening 39 and the second mounting opening 45, respectively, when the insert 139, with the door cylinder 81 inserted therein, is inserted into the receptacle 17. This allows a fastening element inserted through the mounting opening 39 or the second mounting opening 45 into the receptacle 17 to be inserted into the insert mounting openings 141 and 143, thereby securely securing the insert 139 in the receptacle 17.Furthermore, it can be provided that the insert mounting openings 141 and 143 are aligned with the faceplate screw bore 69 when the door cylinder 81 is inserted, so that the aforementioned fasteners can be screwed through the insert mounting openings 141 and 143 into the faceplate screw bore 69 of the inserted door cylinder 81 in order to secure the door cylinder 81 in the receptacle 17.

[0129] Furthermore, it illustrates Fig. 4B, that the insert part 139 has a particularly elastically deformable locking lug 149 which, when the door cylinder 81 is inserted, can engage in the locking lug recess 33 of the door cylinder 81 in order to secure the door cylinder 81 against removal from the insert part 139.

[0130] The embodiment according to Fig. 5 differs from the embodiment according to the Fig. 4A and Fig. 4B, in particular, in that in this embodiment no support 155 is provided for the core receiving section 21, but only the flange section 25 can be inserted into the insertion opening 145. Nevertheless, the insert part 139 extends perpendicularly to the flange section 25, with the door cylinder 81 inserted, up to an outermost section of the core receiving section 121, in order to enable the desired straightening of the door cylinder shape 147 and support against the straight back wall 151 of the insert part after insertion into the receptacle 17 of the packaging 15. Furthermore, according to the insert part 139 Fig. 5 a passage opening 153 is provided, into which the according to Fig. 1. With the key removed, the deflected locking lug 73 can engage. Such deflection of the locking lug 73 creates a clearance on the opposite side of the locking lug recess 33, in which, even in the embodiment according to Fig. 5 a locking lug 149 can engage in order to stably hold the door cylinder 81 in the insert part 139.

[0131] Both the insert part 139 according to the Fig. 4A and Fig. 4B as well as the insert part 139 according to Fig. 5 can in particular be a 3D printed component, whereby such manufacturing can in particular enable easy adaptation to the respective door cylinders to be used.

[0132] While Fig. 2 the packaging 15 in a state of use G in which the receptacle 17 is formed and the door cylinder 81 can be inserted into the receptacle 17, show the Fig. 3A and Fig. 3B the packaging 15 in a flat initial state A, in which the packaging 15 is provided as a flat die-cut part 99. However, by folding and, if necessary, gluing individual sections of the packaging 15, the packaging 15 can be easily transformed from the initial state A into the working state G.

[0133] The Fig. 3A and Fig. Figure 3B shows that the packaging 15 initially has a back wall section 101, which is connected by a fold line 103, in particular a crease, to a structural section 105, on which the receptacle 17 can be formed. To transition the packaging 15 from the initial state A to the state of use G, the structural section 15 can be folded relative to the back wall section 101, whereby a support section 107 of the structural section 105 comes into contact with the back wall section 101 and can, for example, be glued to it. The back wall section 101 and the support section 107 each have a suspension opening 109, which, through folding, come into overlapping contact with each other and can enable the presentation arrangement 13 to be suspended.In other embodiments not shown in the figures, however, two offset suspension openings 109 can be provided, for example, on the rear wall section 101 and the support section 107, in order to suspend, for example, heavy or long door cylinders without the risk of the packaging 15 tipping over. Furthermore, the figures show... Fig. 3A and Fig. 3B, for example, that the aforementioned fastening opening 39 may be formed in particular on the rear wall section 101 and thus on the rear wall 41 of the packaging 15.

[0134] The support section 107 further features a U-shaped recess 111, at the underside 91 of which the aforementioned limiting section 79 is held by an underside fold line 113. The limiting section 79 is subdivided into the aforementioned top section 117 and the front section 119, the top section 117 and the front section 119 being separated from each other by a further fold line 115. By appropriately folding the limiting section 79 at the underside fold line 113 and the further fold line 115, the top section 117 and the front section 119 can thus be brought into the desired orientation in order to extend along a top 118 and a front 120 of the door cylinder inserted into the receptacle 17.In addition, the front section 119 has the aforementioned second mounting opening 45, via which the inserted door cylinder 81 can, for example, be centered.

[0135] While Fig. Figure 3A illustrates an embodiment in which the limiting section 79 is held centrally on the support section 105, so that the receptacle 17 is also formed centrally on the packaging 15. Fig. 3B an embodiment with an off-center receptacle 17. By means of such an off-center arrangement, for example door cylinders can be held stably in the packaging 15, the center of gravity of which is offset from the faceplate screw bore 69.

[0136] The front section 119 then transitions into the previously mentioned display section 93, whereby during this transition the width of the packaging 15 increases, measured along a width direction perpendicular to a vertical direction extending from the rear wall section 101 to the structural section 105, and in particular reaches the width of the support section 107 again. The measuring scale 95 provided on the display section 93 in some embodiments is in the Fig. 3A and Fig. 3B not shown.

[0137] The display section 93 is connected via a first bottom fold line 123 to a lower bottom section 121, which in turn is connected via a second bottom fold line to a rear section 127. By folding the packaging 15 along the bottom fold lines 123 and 125, the lower bottom section 121 can be transferred, in particular, into an orientation perpendicular to the rear wall section 101, in order to, as Fig. Figure 2 shows how a base can be formed for the storage box 97. The rear section 127, which is connected to the lower base section 121 via the second base fold line 125, can, however, be aligned parallel to the rear wall section 101, for example, to be glued to the rear wall section 101. Furthermore, the packaging 17 can, for example, be stood upright on the lower base section 121 as an alternative to being hung from the suspension openings 93.

[0138] The rear section 127 is connected to the aforementioned bottom section 65 via a receiving fold line 133. The bottom section 65 can be folded to align it perpendicular to the rear wall section 101, forming a base for the receptacle 17 and supporting the door cylinder on its underside 83 within the receptacle 17. The bottom section 65 also features the aforementioned tab 71 with the additional fastening opening 63. By folding the bottom section 65 relative to the bottom section 65, this tab can be brought into contact with the rear wall section 101 and thus the outer wall 37 of the receptacle 17, forming the aforementioned outer wall reinforcement 49 of the stabilizing device 47.

[0139] Furthermore, the bottom section 65 is connected via a fastening fold line 135 to a fastening section 137, which can be brought into alignment with the display section 93 by folding, in particular on an inside of the storage box 97, and glued to it in order to stabilize the packaging 15 and in particular to close the storage box 97.

[0140] In the embodiment shown, the display section 93, the lower bottom section 121, the rear section 127 and the bottom section 65 are further connected via respective closure fold lines 129 to closure sections 131, which can close the storage box 97 by folding accordingly.

[0141] In summary, the packaging 15 can thus be transformed from the initial state A to the operating state G after the rear wall section 101 is folded relative to the support section 107, starting from the fastening section 137, by rolling it up in such a way that the fastening section 137 comes into contact with the display section 93 on an inside side of the storage box 97 formed thereby, and in addition, for example, the support section 107 can be glued to the rear wall section 101, the back side section 127 to the rear wall section 101 and / or the fastening section 137 to the inside of the display section 93.

[0142] Furthermore, the packaging 15 can, in some embodiments, be based on the one described in Fig.The packaging can be converted into a flat transport state by sliding the indicator section 93 away from the support section 107, in the operating state G shown in Figure 2, but especially when the locking sections 131 are not yet folded. In this flat state, the top section 117, the bottom section 65, and the lower bottom section 121 are essentially parallel to the support section 107. This transport state can, in particular, enable space-saving storage and / or transport of fully prepared but not yet assembled packages 15. Only when the package 15 is fitted with a door cylinder 81 can it then be converted from the transport state back to the operating state G to allow the door cylinder 81 to be inserted into the receptacle 17.
