FOLDING BOX COMPRISING A CARDBOARD TRAY

Description

[0001] The invention relates to a folding box comprising a tray made of cardboard.

[0002] Rigid cardboard boxes are used for packaging cosmetics, perfumes, books, CDs, cutlery, mobile phones, and other high-quality items or gifts. This packaging consists of particularly thick cardboard coated with printed paper or another covering material. Rigid cardboard boxes are particularly used for products for Christmas, Easter, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, etc. They must be hand-made and delivered assembled from the manufacturer to the manufacturer of the product to be packaged. The production and transport of rigid cardboard boxes from the packaging manufacturer to the manufacturer of the product to be packaged is complex and expensive.

[0003] EP 2 072 408 B1 describes a tray made from a one-piece cardboard blank, in which a bottom wall is connected at the lateral edges via fold lines to outer side wall parts, which are connected via fold lines at the upper edges to inner side wall parts which are folded against the outer side wall parts, wherein an inner side wall part is connected at a lower edge via a fold line to an additional wall part which rests on the bottom wall.

[0004] CN 103 387 075 A describes a folding box in which a reinforcement plate is foldably connected to a base plate of a tray-shaped lower part via connecting plates. This reinforces the folding box.

[0005] US 2007 / 235513 A1 discloses a folding box with a rectangular bottom wall, outer side wall parts, corner flaps and inner side wall parts, and with a cardboard insert arranged on the inside of the bottom wall, wherein the grain direction of the cardboard of the insert is aligned at an angle of 90° to the grain direction in the bottom wall of the cardboard of the tray.

[0006] Based on this, the object of the invention is to provide a folding box which has further increased strength and stability and requires less material.

[0007] The object is achieved by a folding box having the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the folding box are specified in subclaims.

[0008] The folding box according to the invention comprises a cardboard tray having a rectangular bottom wall, outer side wall parts connected to the edges of the bottom wall via fold lines, corner flaps connected to the lateral edges of outer side wall parts via lateral fold lines, and inner side wall parts connected to the upper edges of the outer side wall parts via fold lines, wherein the corner flaps are each folded against an adjacent outer side wall part and the inner side wall parts are folded against the inner sides of the outer side wall parts and the corner flaps adjacent thereto, and a cardboard insert arranged on the inner side of the bottom wall, wherein the grain direction of the cardboard of the insert is aligned at an angle to the grain direction in the bottom wall of the cardboard of the tray, preferably at an angle of 90°, characterized in thatthat the inner side wall parts of the shell are connected at their lower edge via fold lines to bottom wall flaps which rest against the inside of the bottom wall or the insert and the bottom wall flaps have bevels on the lateral edges, whereby adjacent bottom wall flaps with bevels support each other.

[0009] According to the invention, a particularly strong folding box is achieved by using a so-called "carded tray" as the tray, in which the side walls are formed as a double-layer. Furthermore, the corner flaps provide reinforcements at the corners of the tray and stabilize the tray in the upright position. Finally, the base of the tray is particularly strong, as it is formed by the base wall and the cardboard insert arranged on the inside of the base wall. The strength of the base significantly exceeds the strength of a conventional tray made from a one-piece blank with a two-layer base according to EP 2 072 408 B1, as the reinforcement is formed by a cardboard insert that is aligned with respect to the base wall such that the grain direction of the cardboard of the insert is perpendicular or at a different angle to the grain direction of the cardboard of the base wall.The grain direction is the direction in which the pulp fibers are preferentially aligned in the carton due to manufacturing reasons. Surprisingly, it was found that the stability of the tray base can be greatly improved by aligning the grain direction of the tray base wall at an angle to the grain direction in the insert. In addition, the folding box has the advantage that it can be stored and transported flat in stacks, so that the storage and transport effort is significantly reduced compared to conventional rigid cardboard boxes. In particular, stacked blanks of the tray can be stored and transported in a space-saving manner. A further advantage is that the folding box can be erected without gluing and is stable in the erected configuration.This is achieved by securing the corner flaps between the inner and outer sidewalls, and by supporting the inner sidewalls against each other and against the base or insert. A further advantage is that the folding box can be made from high-quality, printable cardboard, making it very similar to a rigid cardboard box in terms of printing. The inner surface of the folding box is also very easy to print. Finally, considerable weight savings can be achieved compared to a rigid cardboard box.

[0010] According to one embodiment, the folding box comprises a lid with a top wall for covering the tray. According to another embodiment, the lid is made of cardboard. According to another embodiment, the tray is inserted into an outer packaging or closed at the top by a transparent cardboard film, which is, for example, sealed onto the upper edge of the tray.

[0011] According to a further embodiment, an additional cardboard insert is arranged on the inside of the top wall, the fiber direction of which is oriented at an angle to the fiber direction of the cardboard of the top wall, preferably at an angle of 90°. This results in a particularly stable top wall, so that the folding box as a whole is particularly stable. However, the invention also includes possible embodiments in which no additional cardboard insert is arranged on the inside of the top wall, for example, if the folding box has a viewing lid.

[0012] According to a further embodiment, the insert and the base wall are glued together using glue or another adhesive, and / or the further insert and the top wall are glued together using glue or another adhesive. This material composite creates a particularly rigid and stable base and / or lid. The gluing of the insert to the base wall and / or the further insert to the top wall preferably takes place at the folding box manufacturer. The pre-glued blanks can be stored flat in stacks and delivered from the folding box manufacturer to the manufacturer of the goods to be packaged or to a co-packer (contract packer). The co-packer then only needs to erect the folding box in the conventional manner.Alternatively, the base wall and insert and / or the top wall and the additional insert are not glued together by the folding carton manufacturer, but are delivered separately in stacks, lying flat on top of each other, to the manufacturer of the product to be packaged or to the co-packer. The co-packer assembles the packaging from the supplied blanks. The insert can either be placed loosely on the base wall or glued to it, and / or the additional insert can either be placed loosely on the top wall or glued to it.

[0013] According to a further embodiment, the insert and the base wall are glued together using several parallel lines of glue or strips of a different adhesive, and / or the further insert and the top wall are glued together using several parallel additional lines of glue or strips of a different adhesive. The parallel lines of glue or strips of a different adhesive can significantly increase the stability and rigidity. Full-surface bonding of the insert to the base wall and / or the further insert to the top wall is not necessary for this. By applying lines of glue or strips of adhesive, large quantities of adhesive can be saved compared to full-surface bonding.

[0014] According to another embodiment, three strips of adhesive are provided, with one or more central strips between two outer strips. This bonds the insert to the bottom wall or the top wall in such a way that the various layers are prevented from shifting or separating relative to one another.

[0015] According to a further embodiment, the strips are applied parallel to the bottom wall and / or the top wall in the direction of travel of the carton from which the folding box is formed and / or in the direction of travel of the carton from which the lid is formed. This promotes high production speeds.

[0016] According to a further embodiment, the folding box has a slip lid. The side walls of the attached slip lid further increase the stability of the side walls of the folding box. According to a further embodiment, an additional insert is arranged on the inside of the top wall of the slip lid, thereby increasing the stability of the top wall. According to another

[0017] In this design, no further insert is arranged on the inside of the cover wall of the faceplate, for example when the faceplate is designed as a viewing cover.

[0018] According to a further embodiment, the lid has a rectangular top wall, further outer side wall parts connected to the edges of the top wall via fold lines, further corner flaps connected to the further outer side wall parts via lateral fold lines, and further inner side wall parts connected to the lower edges of the further outer side wall parts via fold lines. The further corner flaps are each folded against an adjacent further outer side wall part, and the further inner side wall parts are folded against the inner sides of the further outer side wall parts and the adjacent further corner flaps. This forms a sleeve lid, which, like the shell of the folding box, is designed as a "fold-up tray," can be stored and transported flat in stacks, and can be erected into a stable configuration without adhesives.

[0019] According to a further embodiment, triangular flaps are connected to the lateral edges of outer side wall panels via lateral fold lines and are connected to each other in pairs via a central fold line between the lateral fold lines. The triangular flaps are folded around the central fold line against each other and against one of the adjacent outer side wall panels. In this embodiment, each corner flap is formed by a pair of triangular flaps. This creates a sealed and particularly stable connection between the adjacent outer side wall panels.According to a further embodiment, further triangular flaps are connected to the further outer side wall parts via lateral fold lines. These flaps are connected to each other in pairs via a central fold line between the lateral fold lines. The further triangular flaps are each folded around the central fold line against each other and against an adjacent further outer side wall part. In this further embodiment, each corner flap is formed by a pair of further triangular flaps. This creates a particularly stable and sealing connection between the adjacent further outer side wall parts at the corners.

[0020] According to a further embodiment, the inner side wall parts cover the insert at the edges and / or the further inner side wall parts cover the further insert at the edges. As a result, the insert and / or the further insert is supported at the edges on inner side wall parts and / or further inner side wall parts, and a particularly high level of stability of the folding box between the side walls and the base wall or the top wall is achieved. If the insert and / or the further insert are not glued in place, this embodiment can prevent the insert from falling out of the box and / or the further insert from falling out of the sleeve lid. For this purpose, the inner side wall parts preferably cover the insert on at least two opposite edges and / or the further inner side wall parts cover the further insert on at least two opposite edges.

[0021] According to a further embodiment, the additional inner side wall parts are connected to cover wall flaps via fold lines at their upper edges, which rest against the inside of the cover wall or the additional insert. The inner side wall parts can be better supported by the bottom wall flaps and / or the additional inner side wall parts can be better supported by the top wall flaps to hold the shell and / or the faceplate in the upright configuration. The top wall flaps have further bevels on the lateral edges, with adjacent top wall flaps having further bevels supporting each other.

[0022] According to a further embodiment, the bowl and / or the lid is designed according to ECMA Code B 10.02.00.00 or B 10.04.00.00.

[0023] According to a further embodiment, the lid is a sleeve. The sleeve comprises or consists of four sleeve walls that are hinged together via fold lines. One of the sleeve walls is also the top wall. One of the sleeve walls can consist of two overlapping sleeve wall sections that are glued or hooked together in the overlapping area. The tray can be inserted into the sleeve through one of the two openings at the ends of the sleeve. The sleeve can be made entirely of cardboard or of cardboard made of transparent plastic, with the top wall being at least partially made of transparent plastic to form a viewing lid. Furthermore, the sleeve can be made entirely of transparent plastic.

[0024] According to a further embodiment, the lid is a hinged lid. The hinged lid can be formed integrally with the tray or as an additional component. In a single-piece design, the hinged lid can be connected at one edge via a fold line to a connecting flap, which is connected via another fold line to the lower edge of an inner side wall part. In a multi-piece design, the hinged lid can be connected at one edge via a fold line to a connecting flap, which is connected at a lower edge to an insert flap that can be anchored between an inner side wall part and an outer side wall part.

[0025] According to a further embodiment, the insert has a plurality of parallel creasing lines and / or the further insert has a plurality of parallel further creasing lines. The creasing lines and / or the further creasing lines further increase the stability of the folding box. According to a further embodiment, the creasing lines of the insert run parallel or at an angle, preferably at an angle of 90°, to the grain direction of the cardboard of the insert and / or the creasing lines of the further insert run parallel or at an angle, preferably at an angle of 90°, to the grain direction of the cardboard of the further insert.

[0026] According to a further embodiment, the cardboard of the tray has a line at least on the side visible from the outside and the cardboard of the insert has a line at least on the top side and / or the cardboard of the lid has a line at least on the side visible from the outside and / or the cardboard of the further insert has a line at least on the bottom side. As a result, the tray and / or the lid has a line on the sides that the user can see when the folding box is unopened or opened. This gives the folding box a particularly high-quality appearance. For this purpose, according to a further embodiment, the folding box has a print on the same sides. The print on the coated side of the folding box is of particularly high quality.To further increase the quality of the print, the folding box has a line on each of the relevant sides that is formed in the same way, ie the same type, the same number and the same basis weight of the coating that forms the line.

[0027] According to a further embodiment, the tray has crease lines on at least one wall and / or the lid has additional crease lines on at least one wall. This further stabilizes the folding box.

[0028] According to a further embodiment, the bowl and the lid are formed from a single piece or from different pieces.

[0029] According to another embodiment, the tray and the insert are formed from different blanks. According to another embodiment, the lid and the additional insert are formed from different blanks.

[0030] According to another embodiment, the tray and the insert are made of cardboard with the same or different grammages. According to another embodiment, the lid and the additional insert are made of cardboard with the same or different grammages.

[0031] According to a further embodiment, an insert is inserted into the tray, which insert has at least one receptacle for inserting a product. According to a further embodiment, the insert is made of cardboard. According to a further embodiment, the insert has a horizontal upper wall with at least one cutout for receiving and laterally supporting a product and / or the insert has at least one vertical wall with at least one further cutout at the upper edge for placing and supporting a product inserted into the cutout on the periphery.

[0032] According to a further embodiment, the insert has a line at least on the side that is visible to a user when the folding box is opened. According to a further embodiment, the line has a print. According to a further embodiment, the line of the insert is designed in the same way as the line of the tray.

[0033] According to a further embodiment, all parts of the folding box have a line formed in the same way.
