Bei diesem Behälterträger wirken beim Tragen auf den Griffabschnitt starke Kräfte ein, sodass sich die Deckwand stark verformen kann. Ferner können durch die hohen Lasten die Verbindungsbereiche zwischen der Deckwand, den Seitenwänden und den Stirnwänden verformt werden. Insbesondere können sich unschöne Deformationen an den Ecken der Deckwand einstellen. Hierzu trägt die große unsymmetrische Schwächung der Deckwand durch die Griffverstärkungslasche bei.When carrying this container carrier act on the handle portion strong forces, so that the top wall can deform greatly. Furthermore, can be deformed by the high loads, the connection areas between the top wall, the side walls and the end walls. In particular, unsightly deformations can occur at the corners of the top wall. This is due to the large unbalanced weakening of the top wall by the handle reinforcement tab.
Die
Dieser Behälterträger weist die erforderliche Festigkeit im Griffbereich auf und hat eine verringerte Neigung zu Deformationen im Bereich der Seitenwände, Stirnwände und der Ecken.This container carrier has the required strength in the grip area and has a reduced tendency to deformation in the area of the side walls, end walls and the corners.
Davon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Behälterträger der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, der die Festigkeit im Griffbereich und Stabilität weiter verbessert.Based on this, the present invention seeks to provide a container carrier of the type mentioned, which further improves the strength in the grip area and stability.
Die Aufgabe wird durch einen Behälterträger mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen des Behälterträgers sind in Unteransprüchen angegeben.The object is achieved by a container carrier with the features of

- als Manschettenwände eine Bodenwand, eine Seitenwand, eine Deckwand und eine weitere Seitenwand, wobei benachbarte Manschettenwände an den Längsseiten aneinandergelenkt sind,
- zwei voneinander beabstandete, einen Steg seitlich begrenzende Eingriffsöffnungen in der Deckwand,
- eine Klebelasche an einer Längsseite einer Manschettenwand zum Verbinden mit einer weiteren Manschettenwand oder zwei voneinander getrennte Wandabschnitte einer Manschettenwand mit einem Überlappungsbereich zum Bilden der Manschettenwand durch miteinander Verbinden der Wandabschnitte in einander überdeckender Beziehung und
- an die Stirnseiten mindestens einer Manschettenwand angelenkte Stirnwände zum Schließen von Stirnöffnungen zwischen den Manschettenwänden und
- einen oberhalb der Gruppe Behälter anzuordnenden weiteren Zuschnitt aus Karton oder einem anderen faltbaren Flachmaterial umfassend:
- eine unter der Deckwand angeordnete Verstärkungswand,
- zwei voneinander beabstandete und unterhalb der Eingriffsöffnungen der Deckwand angeordnete weitere Eingriffsöffnungen in der Verstärkungswand und
- an die Längsseiten und/oder an die Querseiten der Verstärkungswand angelenkte Längsklappen und/oder Querklappen,
- angrenzend an die beiden weiteren Eingriffsöffnungen in der Verstärkungswand jeweils eine Verstärkungsklappe ausgestanzt ist, die die Eingriffsöffnungen teilweise umschließen und über zwei Anlenkungslinien an die Verstärkungswand angelenkt sind, die von verschiedenen Seiten der weiteren Eingriffsöffnungen vorstehen, und
- die Verstärkungsklappen zum Bilden eines verstärkten Griffabschnittes gegen den von den beiden weiteren Eingriffsöffnungen begrenzten weiteren Steg der Verstärkungswand klappbar sind.
- a blank of cardboard or other foldable sheet material for wrapping a group of bottles or other containers comprising:
- sleeve walls as a bottom wall, a side wall, a top wall and another side wall, wherein adjacent sleeve walls are hinged to each other at the longitudinal sides,
- two spaced apart, a web laterally limiting engagement openings in the top wall,
- an adhesive tab on one longitudinal side of a sleeve wall for connecting to another sleeve wall or two separate wall portions of a sleeve wall having an overlapping area for forming the sleeve wall by interconnecting the wall portions in mutually overlapping relation and
- on the end faces of at least one sleeve wall hinged end walls for closing end openings between the sleeve walls and
- a further blank of cardboard or another foldable flat material to be arranged above the group of containers, comprising:
- a reinforcement wall arranged under the top wall,
- two spaced-apart and below the engagement openings of the top wall disposed further engagement openings in the reinforcing wall and
- longitudinal flaps hinged to the longitudinal sides and / or to the transverse sides of the reinforcing wall and / or transverse flaps,
- adjacent to the two further engagement openings in the reinforcing wall in each case a reinforcing flap is punched out, which partially surround the engagement openings and are articulated via two hinge lines to the reinforcing wall, which protrude from different sides of the further engagement openings, and
- the reinforcing flaps are foldable for forming a reinforced grip portion against the further web of the reinforcing wall delimited by the two further engagement openings.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Behälterträger wird der Griffabschnitt zwischen den beiden Eingriffsöffnungen und den weiteren Eingriffsöffnungen durch mindestens drei Lagen Karton stabilisiert. Eine erste Lage ist von dem durch die Eingriffsöffnungen in der Deckwand begrenzten Steg gebildet. Der den weiteren Eingriffsöffnungen begrenzte weitere Steg der Verstärkungswand bildet eine zweite Lage. Eine dritte Lage wird von den beiden Verstärkungsklappen gebildet, wenn diese so gegen die Verstärkungswand gefaltet werden, dass sie nebeneinander zwischen den weiteren Eingriffsöffnungen liegen. Wenn die Verstärkungsklappen übereinander gefaltet werden, bilden sie eine dritte und eine vierte Lage des Griffabschnittes. Die Anordnung der Verstärkungsklappen nebeneinander zur gemeinsamen Bildung einer dritten Lage des Steges wird bevorzugt, um eine übermäßige Schwächung der Verstärkungswand durch zu große Ausstanzungen zu vermeiden. Die Verstärkungswand stabilisiert zugleich die Seitenwände und Stirnwände und die Ecken der Deckwand. Die Längsklappen und/oder die Querklappen tragen zur Vermeidung von Deformationen der Seitenkanten und der Ecken bei. Für die Stabilität ist von Vorteil, wenn jede Verstärkungsklappe nur einen Teil des Steges bedeckt und die Verstärkungsklappen gemeinsam eine dritte Lage bilden, da dann die Stabilität der Deckwand nur geringfügig durch Ausstanzungen vermindert ist.In the container carrier according to the invention, the grip portion between the two engagement openings and the further engagement openings is stabilized by at least three layers of cardboard. A first layer is formed by the web defined by the engagement openings in the top wall. The further webs of the additional reinforcement limited web of the reinforcing wall forms a second layer. A third layer is formed by the two reinforcing flaps when folded against the reinforcing wall so as to lie side by side between the further engaging holes. When the reinforcing flaps are folded over each other, they form a third and a fourth layer of the handle portion. The arrangement of the reinforcing flaps next to each other to co-form a third layer of the web is preferred to prevent excessive weakening of the reinforcing wall due to excessive punching to avoid. The reinforcing wall also stabilizes the side walls and end walls and the corners of the top wall. The longitudinal flaps and / or the transverse flaps contribute to avoiding deformation of the side edges and the corners. For the stability is advantageous if each reinforcing flap covered only a portion of the web and the reinforcing flaps together form a third layer, since then the stability of the top wall is only slightly reduced by punching.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung sind die Verstärkungsklappen gegen die Verstärkungswand geklappt und mit dieser verklebt oder durch eine andere Verbindung in dieser Lage fixiert. Hierdurch wird die Verstärkungswand weiter verstärkt und sichergestellt, dass die Verstärkungsklappen beim Einschieben von Behältern durch die Stirnöffnungen nicht stören.According to a further embodiment, the reinforcing flaps are folded against the reinforcing wall and glued thereto or fixed by another connection in this position. As a result, the reinforcing wall is further reinforced and ensured that the reinforcing flaps do not interfere with the insertion of containers through the end openings.

Hierdurch wird der Griffabschnitt besonders vorteilhaft verstärkt.According to a further embodiment, the reinforcing flaps cover at least 80%, preferably at least 90% of the further web between the two further engagement openings. As a result, the handle portion is particularly advantageous reinforced.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung weisen die Querklappen Aussparungen auf, durch die hindurch die Kronkorkenbereiche von Flaschen beim Einschieben in die Stirnöffnungen des aufgerichteten Zuschnittes einschiebbar sind. Durch die Aussparungen wird vermieden, dass die Querklappen das Einschieben der Flaschen behindern.According to a further embodiment, the transverse flaps have recesses, through which the crown cork areas of bottles can be inserted when pushed into the end openings of the erected blank. The recesses avoid that the transverse flaps obstruct the insertion of the bottles.
Bei einer weiteren Ausgestaltung weisen die Querklappen eine zentrale Aussparung und/oder seitliche Aussparungen auf. Bevorzugt ist die mittlere Aussparung V-förmig. Weiterhin bevorzugt sind die seitlichen Aussparungen Anschrägungen an den Rändern der Querklappen, durch die sich die Breite der Querklappen mit zunehmendem Abstand von ihrer Anlenkung an die Verstärkungswand verringert.In a further embodiment, the transverse flaps on a central recess and / or lateral recesses. Preferably, the middle recess is V-shaped. Further preferably, the lateral recesses bevels at the edges of the transverse flaps, through which the width of the transverse flaps decreases with increasing distance from their articulation to the reinforcing wall.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung ist die Verstärkungswand im Wesentlichen deckungsgleich zur Deckwand. Hierdurch werden die Ecken und Kanten im Bereich der Deckwand im besonderen Maße stabilisiert. Bevorzugt sind Verstärkungswand und Deckwand deckungsgleich.According to a further embodiment, the reinforcing wall is substantially congruent to the top wall. As a result, the corners and edges in the top wall are stabilized to a particular extent. Preferably, reinforcing wall and top wall are congruent.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung sind von den Eingriffsöffnungen und/oder den Ausstanzungen der Verstärkungsklappen ausgehend in der Deckwand und/oder in der Verstärkungswand Faltlinien zu den benachbarten Ecken der Deckwand und/oder der Verstärkungswand erstreckt. Entlang der Faltlinien können die Kräfte in die Eckbereiche abgeleitet werden. Hierdurch wird der Behälterträger weiter stabilisiert.According to a further embodiment, folding lines to the adjacent corners of the top wall and / or the reinforcing wall extending from the engagement openings and / or the punched-out of the reinforcing flaps starting in the top wall and / or in the reinforcing wall. Along the fold lines, the forces can be diverted into the corner areas. As a result, the container carrier is further stabilized.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung verlaufen von den äußeren Bereichen der Eingriffsöffnungen der Deckwand und/oder der Ausstanzungen der Verstärkungsklappen der Verstärkungswand im Wesentlichen in Querrichtung jeweils zwei voneinander beabstandete Schwächungslinien bis zu den Längsseiten, von dort in die Seitenwände und/oder in die Längsklappen hinein.
