Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a packaging container made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard, paper or a combination of these materials, comprising a front wall and a rear wall and side walls connecting the front wall and rear wall, and a base structure and a lid structure, wherein the lid structure has at least one outer lid flap and one inner lid flap. The invention further relates to a blank of cardboard, corrugated cardboard, paper or a combination of these materials for producing a packaging container.

[0002] Containers or packaging made of cardboard, in particular folding boxes, are known in a large variety. Common cardboard containers or cardboard packaging are used, for example, for packaging powdered detergents. To make these packages easier to transport, they usually have carrying straps made of plastics that are attached to the side walls of the packages using metal rivets. However, the disadvantage of these known containers and packaging is that it is very difficult to recycle them by type and therefore to sort and dispose of them correctly by the consumer after use. In particular, separating the plastic carrying strap from the cardboard packaging is only possible with a high degree of force due to the intimate connection between the carrying strap and the packaging. In addition, when the carrying strap is separated from the packaging, the metal rivets used remain either on the cardboard side walls or on the plastic carrying strap. From an ecological point of view, it is therefore undesirable to use such a mix of materials.

[0003] It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a packaging container made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard, paper or a combination of these materials, as well as a blank for manufacturing such a packaging container, which ensure improved recyclability of the packaging container.

[0004] These objects are solved by means of a packaging container with the features of claim 1 and a blank with the features of claim 10. Advantageous embodiments of the subject matters according to the invention are described in the respective subclaims. Advantageous embodiments of the packaging container are to be considered as advantageous embodiments of the blank and vice versa.

[0005] A first aspect of the invention relates to a packaging container made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard, paper or a combination of these materials, comprising a front wall and a rear wall and side walls connecting the front and rear walls. The packaging container also comprises a base structure and a lid structure, wherein the lid structure has at least an outer lid flap and an inner lid flap. According to the invention, at least one connecting flap is hinged to the side of the outer lid flap. In addition, at least one carrying strap is formed integrally with the outer lid flap and the lateral connecting flaps and is defined and limited by means of corresponding perforation and / or cutting lines arranged in the outer lid flap and the connecting flaps. By providing the packaging container with a carrying strap in accordance with the invention, the usual plastic carrying straps, which are attached to the side walls of the known packaging with corresponding metal rivets, can be omitted. The packaging container therefore consists only of recyclable material, which leads to improved recyclability of the packaging container as a whole. In addition, this also simplifies and reduces the cost of the manufacturing process of the packaging container according to the invention, since, among other things, the manufacturing step of attaching a separate carrying strap can be dispensed with.

[0006] In further advantageous embodiments of the packaging container according to the invention, the connecting flaps are at least partially glued or sealed to corresponding outer surfaces of the side walls of the packaging container against which they rest, leaving out the respective area of the carrying strap. It is also possible for the side walls in the area of the adjacent carrying strap to have at least one area that can be pressed in and is defined and limited by perforation and / or cutting lines. On the one hand, this ensures a secure connection between the connecting flaps of the outer lid flap and the outer surfaces of the side walls of the packaging container. In addition, the design of the press-in area makes it possible for a movement space for the carrying strap to be released when the carrying strap is lifted in the area of the transition between the outer lid flap and the connecting flap hinged to it by pressing said area into the side wall. This movement space is necessary in order to be able to lift the carrying strap from the outer lid flap so that a user can reach into the space that has become free between the outer lid flap and the carrying strap.

[0007] It is also possible that the outer lid flap is at least partially glued or sealed to the inner lid flap, leaving out the area of the carrying strap. This also results in a secure connection between the outer and inner lid flap to close the lid side of the packaging container according to the invention.

[0008] In further advantageous embodiments of the packaging container according to the invention, an end region of the carrying strap is formed in each of the connecting flaps, the respective end regions being movably connected to the respective connecting flap via at least one bending line. In addition, the carrying strap can comprise a central area, which is designed as a holding and gripping element and has at least two bending lines running approximately parallel to each other. Furthermore, it is possible that at least two grip openings are formed in the outer lid flap for releasing the carrying strap from the outer lid flap. The aforementioned features are advantageously used for simple and easy release of the carrying strap from the outer lid flap and to increase wearing comfort, which is ensured in particular by the at least two bending lines in the holding and gripping element running approximately parallel to each other. When the carrying strap is released from the outer lid flap, edge regions of the holding and gripping element bend inwards along the bending lines running approximately parallel to each other, thus forming a reinforcement of this element.

[0009] In a further advantageous embodiment of the packaging container according to the invention, at least one reinforcing tape or strap made of plastic, textile, metal, reinforced cardboard or paper or a combination of these materials is arranged on a side of the carrying strap facing the inner lid flap. This ensures additional reinforcement of the carrying strap so that even larger packaging containers containing corresponding goods with a relatively high weight can be easily carried. The materials of the reinforcing tape are selected in particular in such a way that the recyclability of the packaging container as a whole is not affected or only affected to a small extent.

[0010] In further advantageous embodiments of the packaging container according to the invention, the packaging container comprises at least one tear strip, which is delimited by means of corresponding perforation lines and is designed to open the packaging container and to separate a container base body from a lid of the packaging container. The lid formed in this way can be formed above the tear strip at an end of the packaging container opposite the base structure. The lid comprises a lid front wall and lid side walls connecting the lid rear wall, whereby the lid as a whole is connected to the rear wall of the packaging container via a bending line. The design of the tear strip ensures that the packaging container is easy to open. After removal of the tear strip, the said lid is formed, which is also designed to reclose the packaging container.

[0011] In further advantageous embodiments of the packaging container according to the invention, the packaging container comprises an inner frame made of cardboard, paper or corrugated cardboard, which is at least partially glued and / or sealed to the inner surfaces of the front and / or rear wall and / or the side walls connecting the front and rear walls. On the one hand, the inner frame serves to reinforce the packaging container, in particular in the area of the storage space of the packaging container. In addition, the inner frame can be dimensioned in such a way that it protrudes beyond the remaining edge of the front wall and the side walls when the packaging container is open, i.e. after removal of the tear strip. This ensures that when the packaging container is reclosed, the lid comes to rest on the protruding areas of the inner frame and is also securely held back there via friction effects. A front wall of the inner frame can be dimensioned in such a way that a lid front wall formed by opening the packaging container by means of the tear strip can be brought into contact with an inner side of the front wall to reclose the packaging container. Furthermore, it is also possible for the inner frame to have press-in perforation areas defined and limited by perforation and / or cutting lines in the area of the press-in areas of the side walls. These perforation areas in the inner frame also serve to increase the space for movement of the carrying strap of the packaging container. By deflecting in the direction of the storage space of the packaging container, these perforation areas, as well as the aforementioned press-in areas of the side walls in the area of the adjacent carrying strap, serve to form a movement space for the carrying strap.

[0012] The term "bending line" or "bending lines" refers to lines along which corresponding elements of the container according to the invention can be brought into a predetermined angle to one another. Bending lines are also understood to mean creasing or folding lines. Combinations of these lines are also possible. However, it is also possible for the bending, creasing or folding lines to be formed in combination with one or more cutting or perforation lines. The term "outer lid flap" defines a flap of the packaging container that delimits the packaging container from its surroundings. The terms "cutting line", "cutting lines", "perforation line" or perforation lines" are understood to mean lines that create a partial or complete separation of material in the corresponding element of the packaging container. The term "inner lid flap" is defined as a flap of the packaging container which, on the one hand, rests at least partially against the "outer lid flap" and, on the other hand, delimits a storage space of the packaging container on the lid side when the packaging container is closed.

[0013] A second aspect of the invention discloses a blank of cardboard, corrugated cardboard, paper or a combination of these materials for producing a packaging container comprising a front wall and a back wall and side walls connecting the front and back walls. The blank also has a base structure and a lid structure, wherein the lid structure has at least one outer and one inner lid flap. In addition, the blank according to the invention is formed in one piece. At least one connecting flap is hinged to the side of the outer lid flap. At least one carrying strap is formed integrally with the outer lid flap and the lateral connecting flaps and is defined and limited by means of corresponding perforation and / or cutting lines arranged in the outer lid flap and the connecting flaps. The blank according to the invention for producing a packaging container has a carrying strap integrated in the outer lid flap. This makes it possible for the blank to be made from a single recyclable material, for example cardboard, corrugated cardboard, paper or possibly a combination of these materials. A mix of materials including metal and plastic parts - as is the case with conventional blanks for the production of packaging containers - is no longer necessary. This results in a significantly improved recyclability of the blank and the packaging container produced with it.

[0014] In a further advantageous embodiment of the blank according to the invention, an end region of the carrying strap is formed in each of the connecting flaps, the respective end regions being connected to the respective connecting flap via at least one bending line. Advantageously, the carrying strap can thus be formed completely within the outer lid flap and the connecting flaps adjoining it.

[0015] In a further advantageous embodiment of the blank according to the invention, it is possible that the carrying strap comprises a central area which is designed as a holding and gripping element. The holding and gripping element has at least two bending lines running approximately parallel to each other. To release the carrying strap from the outer lid flap, at least two grip openings are formed in the outer lid flap. The user can reach into these grip openings and release the carrying strap from the outer lid flap.

[0016] In a further advantageous embodiment of the blank according to the invention, at least one reinforcing tape made of plastic, textile, metal, reinforced cardboard or paper or a combination of these materials can be arranged on an inner side of the carrying strap. This significantly increases the strength and load-bearing capacity of the carrying strap. The material of the reinforcing tape is selected in particular in such a way that the material of the reinforcing tape is also fully or predominantly recyclable.

[0017] Further features and their advantages of the blank according to the invention can be taken from the description of the first aspect of the invention, wherein advantageous embodiments of the first aspect of the invention are to be considered as advantageous embodiments of the second aspect of the invention and vice versa.

[0018] Another independent aspect according to the invention is a set for producing a packaging container comprising a first blank according to the second aspect of the invention and a second blank for producing an inner frame. The second blank for producing the inner frame comprises a front wall, a rear wall and side walls connecting the front and rear walls, which are each connected to one another via bending lines or adhesive flaps. The inner frame or the blank for manufacturing the inner frame is usually made of cardboard, paper or corrugated cardboard. It is also possible that the second blank comprises indentable perforation areas defined and limited by perforation and / or cutting lines. In the folded state of the packaging container, these perforation areas are in partial or complete overlap with corresponding press-in areas of the side walls of the packaging container. Furthermore, it is possible that the inner lid flap of the packaging container according to the invention is dimensioned in such a way that it rests on an upper end edge of the inner frame when the packaging container is closed.

[0019] Further features and their advantages of this aspect of the invention are to be taken from the descriptions of the first and second aspect of the invention, wherein advantageous embodiments of the first and second aspect of the invention are to be considered as advantageous embodiments of this further aspect of the invention and vice versa.

[0020] Further features of the invention are apparent from the claims, the exemplary embodiments and from the drawings. The features and combinations of features mentioned above in the description and the features and combinations of features mentioned below in the exemplary embodiments can be used not only in the combination indicated in each case, but also in other combinations, without departing from the scope of the invention. Figure 1shows a schematic view of a blank according to the invention; Figure 2shows a schematic view of a blank of an inner frame of the packaging container according to the invention; Figure 3ashows a schematic view of the packaging container according to the invention in an oblique side view; Figure 3bshows a schematic view of the packaging container according to the invention in another lateral view; Figures 4a to 4cshow schematic views of a carrying strap of the packaging container according to the invention in different positions; and Figure 5 showsa schematic view of an outer lid flap of the packaging container according to the invention in a view of an inner surface of the lid flap.

[0021] Figure 1 shows a schematically view of a blank 100 for manufacturing a container 10 (see also Figures 2 to 4c). The blank 100 is produced in one piece from a cardboard panel element. The blank 100 comprises a front wall and a rear wall 12, 16 as well as side walls 14, 18 connecting the front and rear walls 12, 16. The front wall 12 is connected to the side walls 14, 18 via bending lines 146, 152. The rear wall 16 is connected to the side wall 14 via a bending line 148. To join the blank 100 together, an adhesive flap 20 is articulated to the rear wall 16 via a bending line 150. In the folded state of the blank 100, the adhesive flap 20 is bonded or sealed to the side wall 18, in particular an inner surface of the side wall 18, by means of the bonding area 104.

[0022] It can be seen that the blank 100 forms a base structure 24 and a lid structure 22. The lid structure 22 comprises an outer and an inner lid flap 26, 28. The outer lid flap 26 is hingedly connected to the front wall 12 via a bending line 108. The inner lid flap 28 is hingedly connected to the rear wall 16 via a bending line 106. Furthermore, it can be seen that connecting flaps 40, 42 are hinged to each side of the outer lid flap via corresponding bending lines. A carrying strap 44 is formed within the outer lid flap 26 and the lateral connecting flaps 40, 42. The carrying strap 44 is defined and limited by means of corresponding perforation and cutting lines 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56 arranged in the outer lid flap 26 and the connecting flaps 40, 42. Furthermore, it can be seen that an end region 142 of the carrying strap 44 is formed in each of the connecting flaps 40, 42. The respective end regions 142 are movably connected to the respective connecting flap 40, 42 via corresponding bending lines 88.

[0023] Furthermore, it can be seen from Fig. 1 that the carrying strap 44 comprises a central area which is formed as a holding and gripping element 140. The holding and gripping element 140 is arranged within the outer lid flap 26. It can also be seen that the holding and gripping element 40 has two bending lines 58, 60 running approximately parallel to each other. The bending lines 58, 60 improve the grip of the carrying strap 44 during use. Furthermore, at least two grip openings 62, 64 are formed in the outer lid flap 26, which allow the user to engage the outer lid flap 26 and thus facilitate the release of the carrying strap 44 from the outer lid flap 26. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the carrying strap 44 is defined by a sequence of cut and perforation lines 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56. However, it is also possible that only perforation lines or only cutting lines are used to define and limit the shape of the carrying strap 44.

[0024] The inner lid flap 28 also has bonding areas 102, which serve to connect the inner lid flap 28 to the outer lid flap 26. The arrangement of the bonding areas 102 is such that no bonding or sealing can take place with the carrying strap 44 formed in the outer lid flap 26.

[0025] Furthermore, it can be seen that press-in areas 92 are formed at the respective lid-side ends of the side walls 14, 18, wherein the areas 92 are each defined and delimited by perforation and / or cutting lines 94, 96. The areas 92 are also surrounded by bonding areas 90 which, when the blank 100 is in the folded state, serve to bond or seal it to the connecting flaps 40, 42. It can be seen that the bonding areas 90 are arranged in such a way that they do not come into contact with or adhere to the end regions 142 of the carrying strap 44. Accordingly, the shape of the areas 92 essentially corresponds to the shape of the end regions 142.

[0026] The bottom construction 24 of the blank 100 also comprises bottom flaps 32, 34, 36, 38, which are hingedly connected to the respective side walls 14, 18 as well as the front wall 12 and the rear wall 16 via corresponding bending lines 110, 112, 114, 116. It can be seen that the bottom flaps 34, 36, 38 each have bonding areas 98, which serve for mutual bonding or sealing and thus form or seal the floor construction 24.

[0027] The blank 100 also comprises a tear strip 66, which is delimited by means of corresponding perforation lines 68, 70. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the perforation lines 68, 70 run parallel to each other over almost the entire length of the tear strip 66. A gripping tab 72 is formed at one end of the tear strip 66 formed in the side wall 18, which serves to facilitate the release of the tear strip 66 from the blank 100. The tear strip 66 is used to open the packaging container 10 (see also Figs. 3a and 3b), which can be produced from the blank 100. The tear strip 66 separates a container base 84 (see for example Fig. 3a) from a lid 74 of the packaging container 10. The lid 74 thus formed comprises a lid front wall 76, a lid rear wall 78 and two lid side walls 80, 82. It can be seen that in an area above the tear strip 66 the bending lines 146, 152 merge into perforation lines 154, 156. This makes it possible to separate the lid front wall 76 from the lid side walls 80, 82 when the packaging container 10 made from the blank 100 is opened. The loose lid front wall 76 can then, for example, be inserted behind a corresponding front wall of an inner frame when the packaging container 10 is reclosed. This ensures a secure reclosing of the packaging container 10.

[0028] Furthermore, it can be seen that the rear wall of the lid 78 is hinged to the rear wall 16 via a bending line 30.

[0029] The blank 100 is also formed in one piece.

[0030] Fig. 2 shows a schematically view of a blank 118 of an inner frame of the packaging container 10. It can be seen that the blank 118 comprises a front wall 120, a rear wall 122 and a side wall 124 connecting the front and rear walls 120, 122 via corresponding bending lines 128. In addition, two side walls 126a, 126b are present which can be connected to each other by means of the bonding areas 134, 136. Furthermore, it can be seen that in an upper, i.e. lid-side region (relative to the packaging container 10), perforation areas 130 or partial perforation areas 132a, 132b are formed in the side walls 124, 126a, 126b by means of perforation lines 138. The perforation areas 130 or the partial perforation areas 132a, 132b can be at least partially removed from the side walls 124, 126a, 126b. In the folded state of the packaging container 10, the perforation area 130 and the partial perforation areas 132a, 132b are completely and at le18 of the blank 100. The blank 118 for producing the inner frame is made of corrugated cardboard. Other materials are also conceivable.

[0031] Figs. 3a and 3b show different schematic side views of the packaging container 10. Identical reference signs correspond to identical features of the packaging container 10 or the blank 100 already described above. It can be seen that the packaging container 10 has a front wall 12 and side walls 14, 18, which are connected to the front wall 12 via bending lines 146, 152. The tear strip 66 is defined and limited by the perforation lines 68, 70 and extends from the side wall 18 over the front wall 12 to the further side wall 16 (not shown). The tear strip 66 comprises the grip tab 72. Furthermore, it can be seen that the packaging container 10 is divided by the tear strip 66 into the container base 84 and the lid 74. The lid 74 is formed within the lid structure 22.

[0032] The carrying strap 44 is formed in the outer lid flap 26 of the lid structure 22. The shape of the carrying strap 44 is defined and limited by means of the perforation and / or cutting lines 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56. It can be seen that grip openings 62, 64 are formed at the edges of the carrying strap 44. Furthermore, it becomes clear (see also Fig. 3b) that a corresponding end region 142 of the carrying strap 44 is formed in each of the connecting flaps 40, 42. Here, the respective end regions 142 are connected to the respective connecting tab 40, 42 via the aforementioned bending lines 88. In addition, it is clear that the connecting tabs 40, 42 are bonded to corresponding outer surfaces of the side walls 14, 18 against which they rest, leaving out the respective area of the carrying strap 44. Furthermore, the outer lid flap 26 is also bonded or sealed to the inner lid flap 28, leaving out the area of the carrying strap 44. With regard to the further features, reference is made to the description of the blank 100 according to Fig. 1.

[0033] Figs. 4a to 4c each show schematic views of the carrying strap 44 of the packaging container 10 in different positions. Thus, Fig. 4a shows the carrying strap 44 in an original state of the packaging container 10, namely in a non-detached state. It can be seen that the carrying strap 44 is integrated in the outer lid flap 26. Furthermore, it becomes clear that the carrying strap 44 comprises a central region which is formed as a holding and gripping element 140. The holding and gripping element 140 has two bending lines 58, 60 extending approximately parallel to each other. The bending lines 58, 60 are spaced apart from the perforation and cutting lines 44, 46, 48, 52, 56 defining the shape or the circumference of the carrying strap 44. In Fig. 4b, the packaging container 10 is shown with a slightly deformed carrying strap 44. The deformation of the carrying strap 44 begins in the area of the grip openings 62, 64 and along the bending lines 58, 60. It can be seen that the areas between the bending lines 58, 60 and the corresponding perforation and cutting lines 48, 52, 56 become detached from the outer lid flap 26. Fig. 4c clearly shows this increasing detachment of the carrying strap 44 from the outer lid flap 26. The release takes place in such a way that the hand of a user can engage in a space formed between the carrying strap 44 and the inner lid flap 28. In order for this to occur, the end portions 142 of the carrying strap 44 can make a movement towards the central portion 140 of the carrying strap 44. As already described with reference to Figures 1 and 2, this is made possible by the configuration of the press-in areas 92 and, where appropriate, the perforation areas 130, 132a, 132b of the inner frame, which are in each case pressed in or completely released by the application of force to the carrying strap 44. Furthermore, it can be seen that holding areas are created by means of the bending lines 58, 60, which serve to ensure comfortable handling of the carrying strap 44.

[0034] Fig. 5 shows a schematic view of the outer lid flap 26 of the packaging container 10 in a view of an inner surface of the lid flap 26. It can be seen that a reinforcing tape or strap 86 is arranged on an inner side of the carrying strap 44. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the reinforcing tape 86 is made of plastic. However, other materials are also conceivable. In particular, recyclable materials are also preferred for the design of the reinforcing tape 86. The reinforcing tape 86 serves to reinforce the carrying strap 44. With regard to the other features, it is referred to the descriptions of the preceding figures, with identical reference signs designating identical features.
