Abstract
Description
Background Art
[0001] The present invention relates to a push-in box including an inner part having a bottom wall and four first side walls, and an outer part having an upper wall and four second side walls, the outer part being capable of being pressed against the inner part. On the opposite side of the bottom wall, the inner part has a first opening defined by a first side wall edge for inserting and removing a product. On the opposite side of the upper wall, the outer part has a second opening defined by an edge of the second side wall for inserting and removing the inner part. The outer part and the inner part are made of cardboard, corrugated board, or another foldable flat material.
Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0002] Push-in boxes are used for a variety of different products, particularly dishwasher tablets, pharmaceuticals, household cleaning agents, candles, cosmetics, tobacco, and other products not intended to be within reach of children, because children often put them in their mouths, swallow them, or use them in other dangerous ways. This is particularly true for infants, toddlers, and pre-school children, i.e., children up to about 6 years old. Manufacturers of folding boxes typically manufacture printed blanks provided with fold lines, which are delivered to the filler of the product to be packaged in a stacked and flat state, and the inner part and the outer part are erected and adhered. In particular, when manufacturing the blank and erecting and adhering the inner part and the outer part, there can be tolerances that are not large enough to prevent the outer part from being pushed onto the inner part.
[0003] From this, the present invention is based on the object of creating a push-in box that is reliably protected from opening by children or other unintended opening. This should also be ensured taking into account the tolerances in the manufacture of the blank and the erection and adhesion of the push-in box.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0004] This objective is achieved by the pushbox described in claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the pushbox are specified in the dependent claims. The pushbox according to the present invention, made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard, and / or other foldable flat material, - An inner component having a bottom wall and four first side walls, - An outer component having an upper wall and four second side walls, - A first locking tab that abuts against the outside of two opposing first side walls, is connected to an inner component via a bend line, and forms a first locking edge having a lower edge below the upper wall, - It has a second locking tab that abuts against the inside of two opposing second side walls, is connected to the outer part via a bend line, and forms a second locking edge having an upper edge below the upper wall, - The first locking tab includes at least two layers of bendable flat material in which an inner component is formed, at least at the first locking edge, and / or the second locking tab includes at least two layers of bendable flat material in which an outer component is formed, - It has a first engagement hole located above the second locking edge within the two first side walls, and a second engagement hole located at the lower edge that opens downward. - As a result, when the outer part is pressed onto the inner part, the second locking edge is positioned below the first locking edge, and the first and second locking edges can be used to grip the outer part and prevent the outer and inner parts from being pulled apart by contacting each other, by engaging the thumb and index finger of one hand into the first gripping opening and partially pressing the first locking tab together, and the inner part can be gripped and the outer and inner parts can be pulled apart by engaging the thumb and index finger of the other hand into the second engagement opening.
[0005] In the push-in box according to the present invention, the first and second locking tabs form a lock when the outer part is pressed against the inner part. This is because the second locking edge is positioned below the first locking edge, and as a result, the second locking edge prevents the outer part from being pulled away from the inner part by abutting against or supporting each other. To pull the outer part away from the inner part, the lock between the outer and inner parts must be released. To do this, the user can engage the access opening with the thumb and index finger of one hand and press the first locking tab together to some extent so that the first locking edge no longer obstructs the path of the second locking edge. With the thumb and index finger of the other hand, the user can grasp the lower edge of the inner part through the second engagement opening and pull the outer and inner parts apart. In this case, the first locking tab slides over the tips of the user's thumb and index finger, and the first locking tab engages with the first engagement opening and presses together to some extent. Each first locking tab consists of two layers of the foldable flat material of the inner part at least at the first locking edge, and / or each second locking tab consists of two layers of the foldable flat material of the outer part at least at the second locking edge, thereby compensating for tolerances that may occur when manufacturing blanks and bonding the inner and / or outer parts upright. This ensures that the pushbox is securely lockable despite any tolerances. Unlocking by children can be prevented by dimending the pushbox so that children cannot engage the engagement opening as described above, given the relatively small size of children's hands. Furthermore, unlocking requires a sure understanding of the function of the locking mechanism, which is not yet present in children typically up to the age of six. As a result, children are unable to unlock the pushbox according to the present invention and are protected from the associated hazards. In addition, the pushbox according to the present invention is protected from unintended openings that can occur in conventional pushboxes, such as when the inner part slides out from the outer part when, for example, the inner part is lifted on the outer part without supporting it.
[0006] In this application, positional specifications such as "below" and "above," "downward" and "upward," and "below" and "above" refer to the arrangement of the press-fit box, where the outer component is pressed over the inner component, the top wall is oriented horizontally, and the second side wall is oriented vertically downward starting from the top wall.
[0007] It is clear that the inner component on the opposite side of the bottom wall includes a first opening defined by the edge of the first side wall for inserting and removing the product. Furthermore, on the opposite side of the top wall, the outer component has a second opening defined by the edge of the second side wall for inserting and removing the inner component.
[0008] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the first locking tabs are connected to the first sidewall by a first fold line at their upper edges. As a result, the inner component including the first locking tabs can be formed from a one-piece blank. The first locking tabs are securely connected to the inner component by the first fold line.
[0009] According to a further embodiment, the first locking tab has an inner first locking tab that abuts against the outside of the first sidewall and an outer first locking tab connected to the lower edge of the inner first locking tab via a second fold line and abutting against the outside thereof, the lower edges of the inner first locking tab and the outer first locking tab jointly form a first locking edge. The inner first locking tab and the outer first locking tab form a common double-layer first locking tab, the double-layer properties of which are particularly present in the first locking edge. The double-layer first locking tab compensates for tolerances that may occur when manufacturing the blank and when the inner and outer parts are standing and bonded together, so that the press box is reliably lockable despite the tolerances.
[0010] According to a further embodiment, the inner first locking tab is connected to the edge of the first sidewall via a first fold line. The inner first locking tab is directly connected to the first sidewall, and the outer first locking tab is indirectly connected to the first sidewall.
[0011] In a further embodiment, the inner first locking tab is connected to the edge of the first sidewall via a first fold line. Thus, the outside of the cardboard forming the first sidewall may also be the outside of the outer first locking tab. This allows for a uniform appearance of the inner component.
[0012] In a further embodiment, the first fold line is a perforation line, and / or the second fold line is a cut line. Thus, the perforation line and the cut line are processed into the cardboard material with relatively little effort, reducing the effort required to fold the inner first locking tab and the outer first locking tab in different directions. The second fold line is preferably in the form of a cut line, as it forms a particularly straight edge, and the second fold line also defines the first locking edge.
[0013] In a further embodiment, the first locking tab is connected to the outside of the first side wall by adhesive, preferably the inner first connecting tab is connected to the outside of the first side wall by adhesive, and the outer first adhesive tab is connected to the outside of the inner first adhesive tab by adhesive. In a preferred embodiment, these adhesive bonds have already been made by the folding box manufacturer. In a further embodiment, the adhesive is applied in the form of parallel glue tracks or adhesive strips. In a further embodiment, the glue tracks or adhesive strips extend parallel to the first fold line.
[0014] In a further embodiment, the first side wall has inclined portions on both sides adjacent to each of the first locking tabs. This facilitates pressing the outer component against the inner component. In a preferred embodiment, Slope It forms a 45° angle with the adjacent edge of the first side wall.
[0015] According to a further embodiment, the second locking tab is connected to the lower edge of the second side wall of the outer part via a third fold line. As a result, the outer part having the second locking tab can be formed from a one-piece blank. The second locking tab is securely connected to the outer part via the third fold line.
[0016] According to a further embodiment, the second locking tab has an inner second locking tab that abuts against the inside of the second side wall, and an outer second locking tab connected to the upper edge of the inner second locking tab via a fourth fold line and abutting against its outside. The inner second locking tab and the outer second locking tab form a two-layer second locking tab. As a result, tolerances during the manufacturing of the blank, and the erection and bonding of the outer and inner parts can be compensated, and a secure locking of the press box can be ensured.
[0017] According to a further embodiment, the second locking tab is connected to the lower edge of the second sidewall via a third fold line. As a result, the outer second locking tab is directly connected to the second sidewall, and the inner second locking tab is indirectly connected to the second sidewall via the outer second locking tab. The arrangement of the outer second locking tab facilitates the pushing and secure locking of the outer part onto the inner part, as the outer locking tab forms a smooth inner surface of the outer part.
[0018] According to a further embodiment, the outer second locking tab is designed for this purpose to completely cover the inner second locking tab. For this purpose, the outer second locking tab is the same size as the inner second locking tab or larger than the inner second locking tab.
[0019] In a further embodiment, the third fold line is a notch line, and / or the fourth fold line is a notch line. In particular, the straight edges are formed by notches. This is especially advantageous for the second locking edge. Since the inner second locking tab and the outer second locking tab are folded in the same direction, the notches on the same side can be introduced into the cardboard material. This is possible with relatively little effort.
[0020] According to a further embodiment, the second locking tab is connected to the inside of the second side wall by an adhesive. Preferably, the inner second locking tab is connected to the inside of the second side wall by an adhesive, and the outer second locking tab is connected to the inner second locking tab by an adhesive. According to a further embodiment, the adhesive is in the form of parallel glue tracks or parallel adhesive strips. According to a further embodiment, the glue tracks or adhesive strips extend parallel to the third folding line.
[0021] According to a further embodiment, the first engagement hole is circular, elliptical, or rectangular, and / or the second engagement hole has the shape of the upper half of a circle, ellipse, or rectangle.
[0022] According to a further embodiment, the first side wall and the second side wall are Fibers connected to the adjacent side wall via a folding line extending perpendicular to the direction. This is advantageous for a particularly straight formation of the edges on the above-mentioned folding line.
[0023] According to a further embodiment, the shortest distance between the first finger hole and / or the second finger hole along the outside of the upper and / or lower part is such that a child up to the age of 3 years, preferably up to 4 years, preferably up to 5 years, preferably up to 6 years cannot unlock the push-in box with both hands and pull the outer part away from the inner part. The dimensions are based on the average body measurements of children in the EU, regardless of gender, in each age group.
[0024] According to a further embodiment, the distance between the outsides of the second side walls is 50 - 120 mm, preferably 70 - 100 mm, preferably 80 - 90 mm. As a result, a child cannot engage their hands simultaneously with all the access holes to unlock the folding box. However, this is easily possible for an adult.
[0025] According to a further embodiment, the second side wall The length that protrudes downward from the lower side of the cover wall is such that at least the first side wall protrudes upward from below the lower wall of the inner part It is greater than or equal to its length.This ensures that the dynamic pressure within the stack of push-in boxes according to the invention is transmitted via the outer parts. This is particularly advantageous for the stability of the push-in boxes. According to a further embodiment, the second side wall The length that protrudes downward from the lower side of the cover wall is such that the first side wall projects upward from under the lower wall of the inner part It is length. . This ensures that the dynamic pressure within the stack is transmitted downward via both the outer part and the inner part, which is particularly advantageous for the stability of the push-in boxes.
[0026] According to a further embodiment, the inner part is manufactured from a one-piece blank and / or the outer part is manufactured from a one-piece blank. This facilitates the production of the folding box. According to one preferred embodiment, blanks with pre-adhered locking tabs are stacked flat on top of each other and delivered to the packer by the producer of the folding box. The packer stands up the push-out box, creates the necessary further adhesive bonds thereto, and packs the product into the push-out box.
[0027] According to a further embodiment, the inner part consists of cardboard or corrugated board and / or the outer part consists of cardboard or corrugated board The invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings of exemplary embodiments.

[Figure 6] This is a perspective view of the fully erected and glued outer components, seen from diagonally above and the side. [Figure 7] This figure shows the outer and inner parts before the outer part is pressed against the inner part in a fluoroscopic X-ray image. [Figure 8] This figure shows an outer component pressed against an inner component in a fluoroscopic X-ray image. [Figure 9] This is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of the outer part pressed against the inner part. [Modes for carrying out the invention] [Examples]
[0029] According to Figure 1, the first blank 1 for the inner component has a bottom wall 2, which is connected at its side edge to four first side walls 3, 4, 5, and 6 via fold lines. The bottom wall 2 and the first side walls 3, 4, 5, and 6 are each rectangular.
[0030] The first side wall 3 is connected to the first locking tabs 9 and 10 on opposing sides via first fold lines 7 and 8. The first locking tabs 9 and 10 include inner first locking tabs 9.1 and 10.1 which are directly connected to the first side wall 3 via the first fold lines 7 and 8. Furthermore, the first locking tabs 9 and 10 include outer first locking tabs 9.2 and 10.2 which are directly connected to the outer edges of the inner first locking tabs 9.1 and 10.1 via second fold lines 11 and 12.
[0031] The first side wall 5 is connected to dust tabs 13 and 14 on both sides by parallel fold lines. On the side of the first side wall 5 opposite to the side connected to the bottom wall 2, the side wall 5 is connected to a cover tab 15 via further fold lines, which are connected to two outer adhesive tabs 16 and 17. The cover tab 15 is connected to a further cover tab 18 via further fold lines, which are connected to the bottom tab 19 at the opposite edge of the edge opposite to the edge connected to the side wall 5 via fold lines.
[0032] As shown in Figure 2, in the first step, the outer first locking tabs 9.2 and 10.2 are folded against the outside of the inner first locking tabs 9.1 and 10.1 and glued thereto. Then, the cover tabs 15 and 18 are folded against the side wall 5 and bottom wall 2 around the fold line between the cover tab 15 and the side wall 5, and the bottom tab 19 is glued to the bottom wall 2 in this process. These steps can also be carried out by the packaging producer. A large number of pre-glued, flattened first blanks 1 can be stacked and transported to the packer.
[0033] The inner part is erected by folding all of the first side walls 3, 4, 5, and 6 vertically upward relative to the bottom wall 2, folding and gluing the dust tabs 13 and 14 inward to the side walls 4 and 6, and folding and gluing the adhesive tabs 16 and 17 inward to the dust tabs 13 and 14. Then, the inner first locking tabs 9.1 and 10.1 are folded outward to the side walls 3 and 5 and glued there. The inner part 20 erected and glued in this manner is shown in Figure 3. Between the side walls 3, 4, and 6 and the cover tab 15, the inner part 20 has a first opening 20.1 facing the bottom wall 2.
[0034] According to Figure 4, the second blank 21 for the outer component includes a cover wall 22 connected to the second side walls 23, 24, 25, and 26 at four side edges via fold lines. The top wall 22 and the second side walls 23, 24, 25, and 26 are each rectangular, with the top wall 22 being approximately square and the second side walls 23, 24, 25, and 26 forming elongated rectangles.
[0035] The second side walls 23, 24, 25, and 26 are connected to the second dust tabs 27, 28, 29, and 30 at their parallel lateral edges via fold lines, respectively. Furthermore, the second side walls 23 and 25 are connected to the second locking tabs 33 and 34 via third fold lines 31 and 32 at the edges opposite to the edges that connect to the upper wall 22. The second locking tabs 33 and 34 include outer second locking tabs 33.1 and 34.1 that are directly connected to the second side walls 23 and 25 via third fold lines 31 and 32. Furthermore, they include inner second locking tabs 33.2 and 34.2 that are connected via fourth fold lines 35 and 36 to the edges of the outer second locking tabs 33.1 and 34.1 that are opposite to the edges having the third fold lines 31 and 32.
[0036] The outer second locking tabs 33.1 and 34.1 each have two sections; the first section adjacent to the third fold lines 31 and 32 is rectangular. The second section adjacent to the fourth fold lines 35 and 36 is trapezoidal and widens toward the first section. The inner second locking tabs 33.2 and 34.2 are also trapezoidal, and their lateral boundaries extend continuously to the boundary of the second trapezoidal part of the outer second locking tabs 33.1 and 34.1. Furthermore, the inner second locking tabs 33.2 and 34.2 are not as tall as the outer second locking tabs 33.1 and 34.1. In this example, they are only about a quarter of the height.
[0037] The second side walls 23 and 25 have first elliptical or circular engaging openings 37 and 38, respectively, which are located closer to the upper wall 22 than the second locking tabs 33 and 34. Furthermore, the second elliptical or circular engaging openings 39 and 40 are positioned with one half inside the second side walls 23 and 25 and the other half inside the outer second locking tabs 33.1 and 34.1.
[0038] As shown in Figure 5, in the first step, preferably by the packaging company, the inner second locking tabs 33.2, 34.2 are folded inward toward the outer second locking tabs 33.1, 34.1 and bonded thereto, and the outer second locking tabs 33.1, 34.1 are folded inward toward the second side walls 23, 25. The inner second locking tabs 33.2, 34.2 are then bonded to the inside of the second side walls 23, 25. The fourth fold lines 35, 36 are positioned between the first engagement openings 37, 38 and the third fold lines 31, 32.
[0039] The second blank 21, laid flat, is stacked on top of each other and sent to the packer.
[0040] Therefore, the side walls 23, 24, 25, and 26 are raised, and the second dust tabs 27, 28, 29, and 30 are bonded to the inside of the side walls 24 and 26. The outer component 41, raised and bonded in this manner, is shown in Figure 6.
[0041] The outer second locking tabs 33.1, 34.1 completely cover the inner second locking tabs 33.2, 34.2, so that the outer part 41 adjacent to its second opening 42 is smooth on the inside. The bending of the second locking tabs 33, 34 relative to the inside of the side walls 23, 25 forms second engagement openings 39.1, 40.1 on the lower edge of the outer part 41, opening downwards, and its contour corresponds to half of the contour in the blank 21.
[0042] Figure 7 shows the inner part 20 and the outer part 41 just before the outer part 41 is pressed against the inner part 20. The overlapping inner first locking tabs 9.1, 9.2, 10.1, and 10.2 form first locking edges 42 and 43 at the second fold lines 11 and 12. The overlapping inner and outer second locking tabs 33.1, 33.2, 34.1, and 34.2 form second locking edges 44 and 45 at the fourth fold line. When the outer part 41 is pressed against the inner part 20, the second locking edges 44 and 45 pass over the first locking edges 42 and 43 and are positioned beneath them. The push box 46 is shown in Figures 8 and 9.
[0043] When attempting to separate the outer part 41 from the inner part 20, the second locking edges 44, 45 abut against the first locking edges 42, 43, thereby preventing them from being pulled apart. The user can release this lock by reaching into the first engagement openings 37, 38 with the thumb and index finger of one hand and slightly pushing the first locking tabs 9, 10 inward. The second locking edges 44, 45 are then no longer blocked by the first locking edges 42, 43. At the same time, the user can reach into the second engagement openings 39.1, 40.1 with the thumb and index finger of the other hand, grasp the inner part 20 by its lower edge, and pull the outer part 41 and inner part 20 apart with both hands. This is impossible for a child. The cover tabs 15, 18 of the inner part 20 prevent a child from reaching into the box from below.
[0044] After removing a product, the user may close the push-in box 46 again to remove another product and, if necessary, open it in the manner described.
