Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Packung gemäß dem Oberbegriff der Ansprüche 1 und 2, wie durch die US-A-4 312 473 bekannt.The invention relates to a package according to the preamble of claims 1 and 2, as known from US-A-4 312 473.

Solche Packungen werden häufig benötigt, um vor Gebrauch die in den verschiedenen Kammern befindlichen Füllgüter zu einer gebrauchsfertigen Mischung zu vermengen.Such packs are often required in order to mix the contents in the various chambers into a ready-to-use mixture before use.

Bislang hat man zu diesem Zweck Zwischenblätter in die Packung eingelegt und längs deren Ränder verklebt.So far, interleaves have been inserted into the package for this purpose and glued along the edges.

Ganz abgesehen davon, daß die Anbringung eines solchen Zwischenblattes schwierig zu bewerkstelligen ist, ist mit der solchermaßen hergestellten Packung keine zuverlässige Trennung der Güter in den Kammern möglich. Zum einen weil die Verklebung nur unzureichend an den Rändern stattfindet, zum anderen, weil die Packung beim Auffalten stellenweise sich von dem Zwischenblatt losreißen kann.Quite apart from the fact that the attachment of such an intermediate sheet is difficult to achieve, a reliable separation of the goods in the chambers is not possible with the pack produced in this way. On the one hand because the gluing takes place insufficiently at the edges, on the other hand because the package can tear away from the intermediate sheet in places when it is unfolded.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Packung gemäß dem Oberbegriff der Ansprüche 1 und 2 einfacher herstellbar sowie hinreichend zuverlässig dicht auszubilden.The invention is based on the object of making a pack in accordance with the preamble of claims 1 and 2 easier to manufacture and sufficiently reliably sealed.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Packung gemäß dem Oberbegriff der Ansprüche 1 und 2 erfindungsgemäß durch deren kennzeichnende Merkmale in überraschend einfacher Weise gelöst.This object is achieved in a package according to the preamble of claims 1 and 2 according to the invention by their characterizing features in a surprisingly simple manner.

So wird zum einen beispielsweise zumindest eine halbe Packung seitlich an eine vollständige Packung angesetzt und deren Seitenbereiche übergreifend festgelegt. Andererseits ist es auch möglich, zwei praktisch gleich große Packungen aber mit verschiedener Breite ineinander zu setzen und wenigstens bereichsweise miteinander zu verkleben.For example, on the one hand, at least half a pack is attached laterally to a complete pack and its side areas are defined across the board. On the other hand, it is also possible to place two packs of practically the same size but with different widths in one another and to glue them together at least in regions.

Mit ganz besonderem Vorteil läßt sich die erfindungsgemäße Packung als innerer Beutel einer Faltschachtel einsetzen, wie sie an sich bekannt ist (DE-U-84 11 704) ; weil sich bei Einsatz der erfindungsgemäßen Packung die Faltschachtel auch bei seitlichem Druck auf die Mittelfaltlinie öffnet, so daß eine automatische Weiterverarbeitung der aufeinander gestapelten flachen Faltschachteln ohne die Gefahr möglich ist, daß die als Blockbodenbeutel ausgebildete Packung reißt, weil dieser auch im aufgefalteten Zustand vollständig in der Faltschachtel deren vier Innenseiten und deren Boden fest und ohne Zwischenraum anlegt. Schließlich gestaltet sich das Ausschütten des Füllgutes aus jeder Kammer einfach, weil deren oberes, freies Ende jeweils zu einer Schmalseite der Faltschachtel hin als Ausgußtülle geformt werden kann, wohingegen die andere Kammeröffnung geschlossen gehalten oder gefaltet wird.The pack according to the invention can be used with particular advantage as an inner bag of a folding box, as is known per se (DE-U-84 11 704); because when the package according to the invention is used, the folding box opens even with lateral pressure on the middle folding line, so that an automatic further processing of the stacked flat folding boxes is possible without the risk that the package designed as a block-bottom bag will tear, because even in the unfolded state it will completely tear into the folding box creates its four inner sides and its bottom firmly and without space. Finally, the pouring out of the filling material from each chamber is simple, because its upper, free end can be shaped as a pouring spout towards a narrow side of the folding box, whereas the other chamber opening is kept closed or folded.

Zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbil- . dungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Appropriate configurations and training. Applications of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.

Ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnung näher erläutert. Es zeigt :

  • Fig. 1 den Beutel, in perspektivischer Darstellung und
  • Fig. 2 eine Druntersicht 11-11 gemäß Fig. 1 des inneren Beutels.
A preferred embodiment of the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing. It shows :
  • Fig. 1, the bag, in perspective and
  • Fig. 2 is a bottom view 11-11 of FIG. 1 of the inner bag.

Der insgesamt mit 16 bezeichnete innere Beutel ist ein sogenannter Klotz- oder Blockbodenbeutel, der hinsichtlich seiner Abmessungen, Breite und Tiefe im aufgefalteten Zustand dem Innenraum der Faltschachtel genau entspricht. Der ebenflächige Blockboden 17 (Fig. 2) ist hierbei unter Bildung zweier zueinander paralleler sowie gleich großer Beutelflachseiten 18 bzw. 19 längs seiner Symmetrielinie 20 V-förmig nach unten gefalzt.The inner bag, designated overall by 16, is a so-called block or block-bottom bag, which corresponds exactly to the interior of the folding box with regard to its dimensions, width and depth when unfolded. The flat block bottom 17 (FIG. 2) is folded down in a V-shape along its line of symmetry 20 to form two mutually parallel and equally large bag flat sides 18 and 19.

Der Beutel 16 wird deckungsgleich so auf eine der Innenseiten ohne die Mittelfaltlinien so aufgelegt, daß das untere Ende 23, 24 jeder Beutelflachseite 18, 19 an dem unteren Querfalz der Faltschachtel endet.The bag 16 is placed congruently on one of the inner sides without the middle fold lines so that the lower end 23, 24 of each flat side of the bag 18, 19 ends at the lower transverse fold of the folding box.

Beim wiedergegebenen Ausführungsbeispiel wird jede Beutelflachseite 18, 19 in dem Bereich der Innenseite, vorzugsweise in dessen Randbereich festgeklebt.In the exemplary embodiment shown, each flat side of the bag 18, 19 is glued in the area of the inside, preferably in the edge area thereof.

Der innere Beutel 16 weist hierbei zwei Kammern 30, 31 auf. Die Kammer 30 wird hierbei von einem fertig hergestellten Beutel 32 mit einer Faltenbreite 40 von der vorderen zu der rückwärtigen Flachseite 18 und vorgegebener Höhe 33 sowie beliebiger Breite der Flachseiten 18 auf. An die eine Schmalseite 35 des fertigen Beutels 32 ist ein deren Faltkanten 36 übergreifender Teilbeutel 37 angeordnet und im Bereich der Faltkanten 36, mit dem fertigen Beutel 32 verklebt. Der Teilbeutel 37 entsteht durch einen senkrechten Schnitt durch eine fertig hergestellte Packung durch die Flachseiten 18, 19 und parallel zu den Faltkanten 36 mit einer sich daraus ergebenden Breite 38, jedoch derselben Faltenbreite 40 wie der fertige Beutel 32.The inner bag 16 has two chambers 30, 31. The chamber 30 is opened by a finished bag 32 with a fold width 40 from the front to the rear flat side 18 and a predetermined height 33 and any width of the flat sides 18. On one narrow side 35 of the finished bag 32 there is a partial bag 37 which overlaps its folded edges 36 and is glued to the finished bag 32 in the area of the folded edges 36. The partial bag 37 results from a vertical cut through a finished pack through the flat sides 18, 19 and parallel to the folded edges 36 with a width 38 resulting therefrom, but the same fold width 40 as the finished bag 32.

Der Beutel 32 oder der Teilbeutel 37 können aus Verbundwerkstoffen und/oder verschiedenen Materialien bestehen.The bag 32 or the partial bag 37 can consist of composite materials and / or different materials.
