[0007] The object of the invention is to propose a display stand, a method for setting up a display stand and a method for manufacturing a display stand, which allows realizing in a particularly simple and cost-effective manner a display stand which has an attractive appearance and which can be suitably used as signage or advertising medium. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] This object is solved by a display stand according to claim 1 and by a method according to claims 11 and 12. The dependent claims relate to advantageous embodiments of the invention.

[0009] The inventors started from the realization that for display stands used as signage or advertising media, it is important that they start out in a flat shape, whether for manufacturing, particularly printable, storage or transportation (distribution), but for use as a display stand, the three-dimensional shape needs to be as easy to manufacture as possible.

[0010] The display stand according to the present invention comprises at least one flat N It comprises a base body and a first and a second flat cover body, each of which consists entirely or partly of cardboard. The term "cardboard" is used here in particular to refer to a material having a mass of at least 150 g / m 2 It is understood to mean a flat, rigid paper product having a basis weight of 100 g. The term includes in particular pasteboard and thicker papers. The term can refer to single and multi-ply products, including structural products such as corrugated cardboard.

[0011] The flat base body comprises at least a first flat portion and a second flat portion, which are pivotally connected to each other by a set-up crease. The set-up crease is preferably embossed or otherwise manufactured so that the flat portions can pivot relative to each other by bending or folding the material along the set-up crease. The predefined set-up crease predetermines the path of the pivot edge when the base body is bent. This ensures, for example, a straight bend at a desired position.

[0012] No. 1 flat The inner surface of the cover body rests on the inner surface of the first flat portion of the base body and is partially bonded thereto. flat The inner surface of the cover body lies on the inner surface of the second flat part and is partially bonded thereto. Although it can be only partially covered, the inside of the first flat part and / or the second flat part is preferably mostly (i.e. more than 50% of the surface), particularly preferably at least almost completely (i.e. at least 90% of the surface) covered by the respective First and second flatIt is covered by a cover body. flat Cover body and second flat The cover body may be a separate cardboard element, but can also be formed together and / or with the base body from a continuous piece of cardboard, divided, for example, by folds. The bond can be formed by various types of adhesive and various application methods. For example, the bond can be formed by chemically or physically coagulating the adhesive, i.e. solvent-based adhesives, hot melt adhesives, polymeric adhesives, etc. Pressure-sensitive adhesives can also be used. The adhesive can be applied by spraying, printing or in other ways. Particularly preferably, the adhesive bond can be formed by one or more adhesive tapes, preferably double-sided adhesive tapes, i.e. a carrier with an adhesive surface on both sides, preferably a pressure-sensitive adhesive. Preferably, to form a two-dimensional adhesive area, First and second flat One or more strips of double-sided adhesive tape are disposed between the cover body and the inner surface.

[0013] No. 1 without adhesive Pocket area and No. 2 without adhesive The pocket area is flat Between the inside of the cover body and the inside of the first flat portion, and between the inside of the second flat portion and the Flat cover body and the inner side of the second flat portion. 1st and 2nd The pocket area is, in either case, First and second flat cover bodies Inside and 1st and 2nd The interior of the flat portions are considered to be continuous surface areas that overlap each other but are not connected by adhesive. 1st and 2nd The pocket areas are adjacent the set-up folds and preferably directly opposite one another at the set-up folds.

[0014] According to the invention, the flat metal strip is arranged to span (bridge) the set-up fold with a first portion thereof, preferably including a first end thereof, located in the first pocket area and a second portion thereof, preferably including a second end thereof, located in the second pocket area. In this case, the metal strip is First and second flat Cover body and 1st and 2ndThe metal strip is held in at least one pocket area without being connected by any material to the flat portion and therefore at least slightly displaceable, i.e. in particular without bonding (gluing). Preferably, the metal strip is displaceable at least in the longitudinal direction, i.e. transverse to the path of the set-up fold. As will be explained in more detail below, a minimum displacement, e.g. in the range of 1 mm or less, is sufficient. For example, the metal strip only needs to be accommodated in the pocket area at each end, but is preferably accommodated in the pocket area over at least essentially its entire length (i.e. e.g. 90% or more of its length), except for the short free area of ​​the set-up fold.

[0015] According to the invention, starting from a planar arrangement in which the first and second flat parts are aligned with each other in one plane, such a display stand can be brought into an angled arrangement by pivoting (folding) the first and second flat parts relative to each other at a set-up fold, so that the first and second flat parts are arranged at a set-up angle with respect to each other. The set-up angle can be, for example, 120° or less, preferably 100° or less. The metal strip plastically deforms upon pivoting (turning, bending) and holds the first and second flat parts at the set-up angle with respect to each other in the angled arrangement.

[0016] The manufacturing method of the present invention provides a flat cardboard base body having first and second flat portions and a set-up fold pivotally connecting them to one another, the inner surfaces of the first and second flat cardboard covers being applied to and partially bonded to the first and second flat portions, No. 1 The pocket area is flat a set-up fold formed between an inner surface of the cover body and an inner surface of the first flat portion adjacent to the set-up fold; Second The pocket area is the second flatThe flat metal strip is formed between an inner surface of the cover body and an inner surface of the second flat portion adjacent the set-up fold, the flat metal strip having a first portion disposed in the first pocket area and a second portion disposed in the second pocket area, and spanning the set-up fold. First and second flat Cover body and 1st and 2nd Without any material being used to connect to the flat area, 1st and 2nd A metal strip is movably held in at least one of the pocket regions. The sequence of process steps is not necessarily fixed, for example, the metal strip may already be disposed in one or both of the pocket regions when the pocket regions are formed, or may be introduced subsequently.

[0017] To be able to hold the set-up angle in place, a metal strip, for example a steel sheet with a thickness of 0.1-0.15 mm, has proven to be suitable. In general, the material, thickness and width of the metal strip must be selected so that on the one hand good bending properties are obtained and on the other hand sufficient holding force is obtained.

[0018] The metal strip is completely attached to one or both sides of the set-up fold, i.e., its entire surface is 1st and 2nd It may be arranged in a pocket area, so that the metal strip is held on at least one side over its entire surface only by the border of the pocket area and without any material connection, i.e. in particular not by adhesive. However, instead, on at least one side, the metal strip is held over a large part of its surface (i.e. more than 50%, preferably more than 75%, particularly preferably more than 90%) on each side of the fold. Depo are placed in the socket area, but still, at one or more points, e.g. 1st and 2nd One or more edges of the pocket area may also be secured by adhesive, and in particular, the use of a partially flexible adhesive and only a small portion of the surface area allows the metal strip to move only a minimal amount during bending, despite a proportionally small amount of adhesive.

[0019] The display stand according to the invention and the method according to the invention therefore enable the spatial shape of the display stand to be produced in a particularly simple manner: the desired set-up angle generated by the pivoting (swivel, bending) can be maintained by plastic deformation of the metal strip.

[0020] The display stand according to the invention is particularly suitable for visually attractive presentation, e.g. as advertising medium. For this purpose, e.g. printing can be applied to one or both of the inner surface and the opposite outer surface of the first and / or second flat part. By means of set-up folds, precisely localized straight edges can be produced. Due to the movable metal strip, compression of the material of the metal strip and / or the base body during pivoting is prevented, and no cracks, bulges or other undesirable deformations occur, especially on the outer surface. First and second flat cover bodies By only partially bonding the inner surface of the base body with the metal strip, a pocket area suitable for holding a metal strip is formed in a particularly simple manner.

[0021] The metal strip may be movably held in only one of the pocket regions and fixed in the other pocket regions. First and second flat It is held in both pocket areas so as to be movable without any material connection with respect to the cover body, which proves to be favorable in particular to avoid or reduce deformation of the base body when setting up the display stand, i.e. when the flat parts are pivoted relative to each other to form an angled arrangement.

[0022] Preferably, the first flat The inner surface of the cover is bonded to the inner surface of the first flat portion in a first bonding area, the first bonding area being: No. 1 It surrounds the pocket area on three sides. No. 1The pocket area is surrounded by a continuous adhesive area, the fourth side of which is preferably formed by a set-up fold. Similarly, the second adhesive area is preferably flat The cover body and the second flat portion are formed between the cover body and the second flat portion, Second Encircling the pocket area.

[0023] According to a further development, the first flat Cover body and / or second flat The cover body may be formed integrally with the base body. First and second flat The cover body may, for example, be a first and / or a second cover at the end fold. flat The portion may be pivotally connected to the First and second flat The cover body is folded at the end crease, First and second flats respectively The base body may be disposed on an inner surface of the portion. First and second flat It is particularly preferred that the end folds are integrally formed with the cover body.The end folds preferably run parallel to the set-up folds.

[0024] The inside of the base body is, for example, two That is, the first and second flat However, the set-up fold on the inner surface of the base body may be completely covered by the cover body. First and second flat An arrangement in which it is not covered or is not covered at all by a cover body is preferred.

[0025] According to a preferred embodiment, the first flat Cover body and second flat The cover bodies are spaced apart from one another along the set-up folds, which makes it particularly easy to pivot the parts relative to one another about the set-up folds to form the angled arrangement. First and second flat The spacing and resulting free area between the covers eliminates the need to move material or reduces the amount of material that needs to be moved when pivoting or folding. 1st and 2nd Undesirable deformation of the flat portion and the set-up fold is reduced or avoided entirely. flat Cover body and second flat The interval (distance) between the cover bodies can be, for example, 0.3 to 5 mm, preferably 0.5 to 3 mm, and particularly preferably 1 to 2 mm.

[0026] For this purpose, preferably, for example, the first and / or second flat portions of the base body are First and second flat It has a length (measured perpendicular to the set-up fold) that is greater than the length of each of the cover bodies. First and second flat By shortening the cover body, a gap or free area is provided inside the set-up crease, making it easier to fold along the set-up crease and avoiding or reducing undesirable deformation.

[0027] For example, the first and / or second flat The length of the first part is flat Cover body and / or second flat It can be made longer than the length of the cover body by an amount of 0.2 to 2 mm.

[0028] The dimensions of the overall display stand, and in particular the dimensions of the pocket area, can be selected differently depending on various requirements. According to a preferred embodiment, the first pocket area and / or the second pocket area are each a first and / or a second pocket area, measured perpendicular to the set-up fold. flat The pocket area may have a length of less than 80% of the length of the portion. Each pocket area (and preferably the metal strip contained therein) extends over only a portion of the length of the respective portion of the base body. A preferred dimension of the length of each pocket area and / or the length of each portion of the metal strip contained therein may, for example, be at least 10%, preferably at least 20%, of the length of the respective portion.

[0029] According to a preferred embodiment, at least one slot is formed in the first flat portion and / or the second flat portion and / or the first flat cover body or the second flat cover body, which 1st and / or 2nd Flat area or First and / or second flatthrough the cover body. The slots can be positioned and dimensioned so that the metal strip can be inserted into the first pocket area and / or the second pocket area. Preferably, only one slot is formed in one of the pocket areas, particularly preferably in the area of ​​its end facing away from the set-up fold. The slot is preferably arranged so that the metal strip can be pushed therethrough in its longitudinal direction.

[0032] Figure 1 1 shows a first embodiment of a display stand 10, which has two cardboard base bodies 12. That is, the first and second The flat portions 14a, 14b form an angled arrangement with respect to each other at a setup angle α. Such a display stand 10 can function, for example, as a sign or advertising medium, and the outer surface of the base body 12 shown in FIG. 1 can be printed on. The display stand can be mounted on the base body 12 as shown in FIG. 1 or at a setup angle α of less than 90°. 1st and 2nd It can be set up at the edges of the flat portions 14a, 14b or it can be set up at one of the outer surfaces, as shown below with reference to the second embodiment (Figures 5 and 6).

[0033] In either case, the prerequisite is that the setup angle α is maintained, which is not guaranteed solely by the cardboard material of the base body 12. As shown in FIG. 1st and 2nd The flat portions 14a, 14b have hidden metal strips 20 which are plastically deformable as they pivot relative to the set-up fold 16, thereby maintaining the set-up angle α in the angled position shown in FIG.

[0034] FIG. 2 shows the display stand 10 in an unfolded configuration. 1st and 2nd The base body 12, having flat portions 14a, 14b and a set-up fold 16 formed therebetween, is integrally formed from cardboard material with first and second flat cover bodies 18a, 18b which are foldably or pivotally connected to the base body 12 via end folds 28a, 28b. Measured perpendicular to the set-up fold 16, in the illustrated embodiment: 1st and 2nd The flat portions 14a and 14b each have the same length B1, and the adjacent First and second flatThe cover bodies 18a, 18b also have the same length B2 (although the lengths may differ depending on the embodiment). First and second flat The length B2 of the cover bodies 18a and 18b is the length 1st and 2nd It is shorter than the length B1 of the flat portions 14a, 14b by a predetermined amount, for example, 1 to 2 millimeters.

[0035] 1st and 2nd Adhesive regions 24a and 24b are formed on the inner surface of the base body 12, and each of them is a non-adhesive region that is not bonded from three directions. The first and second pocket regions as Surrounds 22a and 22b. First and second pockets The regions 22 a and 22 b are located on opposite sides (opposite each other) of the set-up fold 16 .

[0036] The sequence of Figures 3a-3c shows one possible order of steps in the manufacture of the display stand 10. By interposing the set-up fold 16 and the end folds 28a, 28b, 1st and 2nd Flat portions 14a, 14b and First and second flat Starting with a flat piece of cardboard material separated into cover bodies 18a, 18b, 1st and 2nd After adhesive is applied to adhesive areas 24a, 24b (not shown in Figs. 3a-3c), the end creases 28a, 28b are folded over to form a 1st and 2nd The inside of the flat portions 14a and 14b First and second flat The insides of the cover bodies 18a and 18b are folded together. Prior to this, the metal strip 20 is First and second pockets Alternatively, the metal strips may be disposed in the regions 22a and 22b (not shown in FIGS. 3a-3c). 20 can also be inserted later.

[0037] First and second flat When the cover bodies 18a and 18b are folded, the inside and 1st and 2nd The inside of the flat portions 14a and 14b 1st and 2nd They are attached to each other by adhesive regions 24a, 24b. First and second pocketsRegions 22a, 22b form a pocket between their inner sides in which metal strip 20 is received. This is shown in cross section in Figure 4. Metal strip 20 spans (bridges) set-up fold 16 and is secured to the inner surface of the set-up fold 16 on either side. 1st and 2nd The metal strip 20 is received in the pocket areas 22a and 22b. 1st and 2nd The inner surfaces of the flat portions 14a and 14b First and second flat The cover bodies 18a, 18b are sandwiched and held between the inner surfaces of the cover bodies 18a, 18b, but there is no connection using any material, i.e., no bonding (adhesion) in particular.

[0038] 1st and 2nd The pocket areas 22a, 22b are slightly larger than the metal strip 20 so that the metal strip 20 is accommodated in the pocket areas with some play, ie, is able to move at least a little parallel to the inner surface.

[0039] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 4, First and second flat When the covering bodies 18a, 18b are folded over, in the region of the set-up fold 16 a free area 26 is formed between their edges, ie they form a gap (spacing) of, for example, a few millimeters.

[0040] The structure thus formed and shown in FIG. 4 can then be folded about the set-up fold 16, i.e. 1st and 2nd It is particularly suitable for pivoting the flat portions 14a, 14b towards each other to form the set-up angle α. The set-up crease 16 embossed in the material predetermines its position and linear path. During folding, the metal strip 20 undergoes plastic deformation, 1st and 2nd The ability to move within the pocket areas 22a, 22b ensures that the cardboard material does not stretch or compress, which could otherwise cause undesirable deformation or even tearing of the material. First and second flat The edges of the cover bodies 18a, 18b do not collide with one another (or at least not to a significant extent), whereby compression of the material is avoided or at least reduced.

[0041] Thus, due to the illustrated construction of display stand 10, the angled orientation of display stand 10 (FIG. 1) may be achieved particularly easily and stably, starting from an initial planar orientation (see, e.g., FIG. 3c), such that display stand 10 may, for example, be processed (e.g., printed), stored, and / or transported or shipped in a planar orientation, and only placed in the angled orientation (FIG. 1) when in use.

[0042] Many variations of the illustrated embodiment are possible. For example: 1st and 2nd The adhesive regions 24a and 24b are 1st and 2nd Although shown inside the flat portions 14a, 14b, alternatively or additionally, during manufacture, First and second flat Adhesive may be applied to the inside of one or both of the cover bodies 18a and 18b. 1st and 2nd Although the adhesive regions 24a, 24b are assumed to be continuous, the adhesive may be applied to these regions intermittently, for example in the form of dots or lines. 1st and 2nd Flat portions 14a, 14b and First and second pockets The dimensions and relative dimensions of regions 22a, 22b and metal strip 20 are merely exemplary and may vary in different embodiments, and in particular, base body 12 need not be symmetrically divided as shown. 1st and 2nd One of the flat portions 14a, 14b may have a different size and / or shape than the other.

[0043] 5 to 7 show a display stand 110 according to a second embodiment. The display stand 110 according to the second embodiment corresponds substantially to the display stand 10 according to the first embodiment. Identical parts and elements are provided with the same reference symbols. In the following, only the differences will be described in detail.

[0044] The display stand 110 according to the second embodiment has surfaces of different lengths, i.e., a first flat portion 14a and a first flatThe cover body 18a has a second flat portion 14b and a second flat portion 14c, as measured from the set-up fold 16. flat The length of the cover body 18b is significantly greater than that of the second flat portion 14b and the second flat portion 14c. 2nd flat The angle α may be at least twice the length of the cover body 18b. The angle α is less than 90°. The display stand 110 is therefore particularly suitable for setting up with the short second flat portion 14b as a base, and the first flat portion 14a standing up as a shield, as shown in FIG. 5, for example.

[0045] For inserting the metal strip 20, a slot 30 is formed in the second flat portion 14b, i.e., on the underside of the leg (see FIG. 6), which passes through the second flat portion 14b and is connected to the second flat portion 14b and the second flat portion 14c. flat Between the cover body 18b Second The pocket area 22b is accessible, as shown in cross section in Figure 7. The slot 30 allows the metal strip 20 to pass through the slot 30. 1st and 2nd To be able to insert into the pocket areas 22a and 22b, Second It is disposed at the longitudinal end of the pocket region 22b.
