Description

Moritz Eiskonfekt GmbH 2000 Haabur?

The invention relates to a box for storing small objects, in particular confectionery, in the form of a column with a hexagonal cross-section, with an upper bag-shaped hinged lid opening and a lower base with a base.

By cutting the cardboard to the right size, boxes can be made in almost any shape, especially hexagonal. After punching, the ends of the cardboard cut that are far apart from each other are joined together to create a box that can be closed at the top and bottom, for example with a hinged lid.

However, previous folding boxes of the aforementioned type have the disadvantage that a large number of often complicated steps have to be carried out from the cutting to the production of the finished container. For example, putting the parts of the lid and base together is complicated and can actually only be done by hand, which leads to considerable costs.

The invention is based on the object of designing a cardboard blank for a box of the type mentioned above in such a way that, by means of essentially a

folding box can be produced.

This is achieved by the box being formed from a single piece of flat material, preferably cardboard, by punching, folding, gluing and gluing, both the base and the part of the lid closing the opening of the container being formed from extension parts of the individual shell pieces connected by folding edges, two diametrically opposed sides of the extension pieces adjacent to one another - top and bottom - being designed to be equilaterally triangular in shape from their respective folding edges and being connected to the adjacent sides of the triangles by folding edges, and that one of the extension parts - top and bottom - has a hexagonal shape corresponding to the size of the cross-section of the container and the other diametrically opposed extension parts - top and bottom - has essentially a rectangular shape with a longitudinal extension corresponding to the width of the container, the hex angle on both sides from the folding line to the adjacent triangular Extension parts are formed with a substantially triangular recess and the rectangular extension part is connected at the bottom in the region of its free ends via a folded edge to the adjacent triangular side parts via web parts.

After the cardboard blank has been produced and the outer ends of the blank have been joined together, a self-contained structure is created that can still be taped and transported in a flat form. The cardboard blank for the box according to the invention can only be folded into the desired shape by applying pressure from the side, both from one side and from the diametrically opposite side.

open position of the box and both the base and the lid area assume the final intended position. To complete the box according to the invention it is then only necessary to apply glue between two parts of the extension pieces of the side parts and to press the corresponding parts together. It is obvious that in the production of a box of the type described above, complete automation is possible without sextcrss, which could not be achieved with previously known boxes.

The invention is explained below by way of example with reference to the drawing.

The figure shows a plan view of a cardboard blank for a box according to the invention.

In the figure, fold lines between two connected parts are indicated by dash-dotted lines, while those parts which are hidden in the illustration by parts in front of them are shown in dashed lines.

The figure shows the transport position of a cardboard blank, whereby after punching out the blank, the ends of the blank have already been joined together to obtain a self-contained structure.

With 20/ 30 and 40 are three front side surfaces of the J Box according to the invention. Below this &tgr;

Side panels are the opposite side panels, but they -&rgr; are completely hidden and are therefore in the

Illustration not visible. The diametrically opposite to the side part 30 g

The opposite part can be seen through the transparent window 90 in the side part 30.

The bottom is located in the lower area 10. The lid 11 of the box according to the invention is located in the upper area. In principle, however, both parts are designed to match each other; the lid construction will be discussed below.

The front side part 20 is designed in the upper area with a triangular extension part 21/where these two parts 20 and 21 are connected to one another via a folded edge. The side part 40 is designed in a corresponding manner with an extension part 41. The side parts not shown, which are concealed behind the parts 20 and 40, are designed accordingly with extension parts 71 and 51 in a likewise essentially triangular shape.

The front side part 30 is formed with a fold line with an essentially rectangular extension part 31, which has a fold line in its upper area. Between the two fold lines, the rectangular extension part 31 has essentially the length of the width of the later container. It is also connected to the triangular extension parts 21 and 41 via fold lines so that four square recesses are created. A hexagonal part 61 is also attached to the extension part hidden directly behind the front side part 30 via a fold line, the floor plan of which corresponds to the area of the intended box. The hidden upper boundary line should in and of itself correspond to the fold line in the rectangular extension part 31, for the purposes of

• * m ·

However, for clarity of representation, these lines are spatially separated from each other.

The bottom area 10 of the box is shown accordingly.

The front side part 30 is designed with a substantially rectangular extension part 32 via a fold line, it is connected via fold lines to the adjacent extension part of the adjacent side parts 20 and 40. The side part 20 is therefore designed with a triangular extension part 22, which is connected via a fold line to a web part, which in turn is connected to the extension part 32 via a fold line. The side part 40 is designed with a triangular extension part 42, which is formed in one piece via a fold line and a web-shaped part and another fold line over the rectangular extension part 32.

The side part located behind the side part 20 is formed with a triangular extension part 72. The side part located behind the side part 40 is formed with a triangular extension part 52. The triangular extension parts 22 and 72 are connected to one another via an adjacent fold line, whereas the extension parts 42 and 52 are connected to one another via a fold line.

The side part located behind the side part 30 is in the

lower area with a hexagonal extension part 62

which corresponds to part 61 in upper area 11.

The upper part of the box according to the invention is formed by a

Cutting line 91. Behind the cutting line in the area of the three side parts 20, 30 and 40 are the

'4 side parts with protruding parts 80, 81 and 82

I. Overall, this creates a lid that extends over

the fold line between the part 61 and the side part located behind the side part 30 can be pivoted.

-" In the closed position of the container, the

; front part of the lid, namely the edge that consists of the

parts 23, 33 and 43, in front of the guide pieces 80, 81 and 82.

f The box shown in the figure can be replaced by a

¹ single handle or by pressure force from the left

and applied from the right to the fold line between the side parts 20 and the adjacent side part or the side part 40 and the adjacent side part

&eacgr; are placed in a position in which the

* Box represents a hexahedral column. According to the

Connection of the individual extension parts, these I extension parts fold both in the base and in the lid area

φ into the final intended position, whereby the

rectangular side parts 31 and 32 with a dot of adhesive

or strips so that a bond I between the outside of these parts 31 and 32 and the

I inside of parts 61 and 62 is easily possible.

t Overall, the invention creates a box

I have been easily manufactured as a cardboard cut,

transported in a space-saving manner and before filling by simple 'k sideways directed forces into the final shape

P can be brought.
