Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to packaging containers and cartons for consumable items, and more particularly to packaging which is acceptable both for shipment and for display of items on retail shelves.
  • the invention has been developed primarily for use with cardboard and paperboard cartons and will be described predominantly with reference to this application. It will be appreciated, however, that the invention is not limited to this particular field of use, being also adaptable to other sheet material including corrugated cardboard.
  • Cartons and packaging made from cardboard, paperboard, or similar materials are well known and used for transporting and storing various types of products including retail products and grocery items.
  • a plurality of such products are packed into cartons by the manufacturer and shipped to retail stores for display and individual sale.
  • individual packets, cans, bottles, bags or boxes may be packaged in the larger carton.
  • Such cartons are generally used for storage and transport only. Once the carton is delivered to a retail store, the contents are manually removed from the carton and placed or stacked on display shelving or racks where the product may be seen, selected and taken by customers for purchasing.
  • a problem associated with the cartons of this nature is that the process of removal of stock from the carton and placement on shelves or "filling" is relatively time consuming and can only realistically be performed manually. Naturally this makes the process relatively costly to the store. As a result, store owners are looking for ways in which to reduce costs for stacking shelves. [0007]
  • One solution has been to place the entire carton including its contents on the shelf. This provides a faster filling procedure as the product does not have to be removed from the carton and can be lifted onto the shelf simultaneously.
  • SRP Shelf Friendly or Shelf Ready Packaging
  • SRP is designed from the outset to include removable portions to create access to the product so it can be seen and easily removed by the consumer.
  • SRP takes a number of different forms.
  • Tray and lid solutions are one of the most basic forms of SRP.
  • the packaging includes two individual components which come together to form a carton.
  • An upper removable lid section covers the goods during transit and storage, while a lower tray section supports the goods and is used to lift the goods onto display.
  • the lid is designed to be discarded when placed on the shelf.
  • One problem with tray and lid solutions is that by nature they comprise multiple piece construction and require the assembly of at least two separate parts. This adds significant cost to the carton filling process, in either additional manual labour or costly specialist machinery.
  • Wrap around cases and regular slotted cases include a perforation or "zip" section separating an upper lid section from a lower tray along lines of weakness. To open the carton and prepare for shelf presentation, the carton is torn along the lines of weakness. However, these tear lines are positioned such that they often do not leave a clean cut finish when opened which make the cartons unsightly.
  • the invention provides a carton having a lid, the carton including a carton base and a detachable lid connected to the base along a line of weakness providing for toolless removal of the lid from the base, the carton base including:
  • the detachable lid includes a top wall and a plurality of lip side-lips corresponding to each carton side-wall, each the side-lip disposed along a peripheral edge of the top-wall and attached to the corresponding inner side-wall panel along the line of weakness.
  • the carton base includes a front wall and a base wall.
  • each the side-wall includes an outer side wall panel an inner side wall panel and a separation panel.
  • the line of weakness is disposed on the separation panels.
  • the invention provides a flat pack or "collapsed" carton.
  • the flat-pack carton may be more efficiently shipped to other locations where it may be expanded into a carton before being filled with product and sealed closed.

  • crease lines are a dash-dot line and perforations as dash lines. It is noted however, that the use of various crease, cut and score lines on the blank will depend upon the manufacturer, the base material used to form the blank and carton and its resistance to folding.
  • the blank is formed of sheet carton board having a range of thicknesses between 250 ⁇ and 1 ,000 ⁇ .
  • sheet products of other thicknesses and materials may also be used including laminates, corrugated cardboard, plastic materials, waxed card, metallic or partially metallic sheet materials or any combination thereof.

  • the blank may be printed by any known process suitable for the material. It may also undergo printing after cutting.
  • the blank includes an inner face which predominantly forms the inside surface of the carton, and an outer face which predominantly forms the outer surface of the carton. For this reason, the carton blank 4 is generally only printed on the outer face which ultimately forms outer visible surface; however printing on the inner face is possible if required.
  • the blank generally includes a carton base forming part 5 and a detachable lid forming part 6. These parts of the blank are split generally by a line of weakness 7, which allows for tool-less separation of the base from the lid once the carton has be assembled.
  • the blank is configured such that once the carton is formed; the line of weakness is generally located on an inner panel of the completed carton base such that post lid detachment, the line of separation on the base is predominantly hidden from view.
  • the line of weakness is provided by perforating the sheet material.
  • the relative strength or weakness of the line of weakness can be adjusted. For instance by providing many small perforations, known as micro perforation the strength of the line of weakness is reduced such that it becomes easier to separate.

It is when attempting to fold the carton particularly along foldline 35 that the convergence apertures 26a provide space for convergence of the inner and separation panels of the carton. This is caused by bending three layers of the carton together which otherwise places the outer panels in tension at the fold line and the inner panels in compression. By providing the convergence apertures, the inner and separation panels are allowed to converge, reducing tension in the outer wall panel and reducing the risk of tearing.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une ébauche (4) pour fabriquer un carton avec un couvercle d'une seule pièce. L'ébauche comprend une partie de formation de base de carton (5) et une partie de formation de couvercle de carton (6) qui sont assemblées et conçues pour être séparées le long d'une ligne de moindre résistance (7). L'ébauche est pliée et collée de telle sorte la partie de formation de base forme une base de carton (2) et la partie de formation de couvercle forme un couvercle de carton (3). La ligne de moindre résistance est généralement disposée sur un panneau de séparation interne ou adjacente à ce dernier (20, 21, 22), de telle sorte que le couvercle peut être détaché sans utiliser d'outils et que ladite ligne de moindre résistance est sensiblement cachée dans le carton, ce qui la rend appropriée pour détacher le couvercle après présentation.
