Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of producing a package made of sheet material.
  • Such packaging has the requirement to provide a reliable and sealed package which ensures long shelf life while providing a pleasing appearance for sale and ease of use for the consumer.
  • the packages are evacuated before sealing in the known methods and filled with a replacement gas such as CO 2 .
  • Such packages are often used for packaging foods that are already pre-portioned, such as e.g. sliced cheese or sliced sausage. Especially in times of smaller households, the content of such packaging is often not fully consumed at a given time, but only a part of the content is removed and the rest will be taken at a later date. This leads to the need to produce resealable packages.
  • a method for producing a package in which a packaging top part and a bottom packaging part are produced from a single film web. After filling the lower packaging part, the upper packaging part is folded over the upper packaging part, wherein between the two parts a kink is generated, which serves as a kind of hinge. Subsequently, the upper part of the packaging and the lower part of the packaging are sealed together. Since the packaging upper part and the lower packaging part are produced from the same film web, it is not possible with the packaging to use different materials for these two parts. However, it is often desired, for example, a transparent packaging shell and a colored packaging base.
  • the packaging base it is often necessary, for example, to produce the packaging base from a thick film, whereas for the packaging top, a thinner film would be sufficient. Since both are produced from the same film web, the more expensive thick film is therefore also used for the packaging upper part, which is disadvantageous for the production costs.
  • a method for producing a packaging in which the packaging upper part and the lower packaging part are also manufactured from the same web. In order to achieve a hermetic seal, a second film web is introduced and sealed between the lower packaging part and the upper packaging part. This method also has the disadvantage that the same material is necessarily used for the packaging upper part and the lower packaging part.
  • a reclosable package having a body member of semi-rigid preformed plastic having a first planar edge portion and a center portion shaped to provide a packaging chamber.
  • a base member has a corresponding second flat edge portion and a center member, so that a closure for the packaging chamber is provided.
  • the body member and the base member are fixedly connected along a pair of adjacent sides of the first and second edge portions.
  • a hinge is disposed on the pair of adjacent sides.
  • the DE 27 18 234 A1 discloses a packaging container, which consists of a thin-walled, the plastic material to be packaged receiving base with open, surrounded by a punching and peripheral edge top and on or in this open top matching, in the upper edge region hinged or attached to the lower lid.
  • the lid is designed as a hinged lid.
  • packaging is known in which the packaging upper part and the packaging lower part are each made of separate film webs and these are then joined together by sealing. With these packages, different film materials can be used for the packaging top part and the bottom packaging part. In the known packings, a sealing takes place between the packaging upper part and the packaging lower part along a peripheral contour. For these packages, either on initial opening, a complete separation of upper and lower packaging parts or the seal is released along multiple sides and remains on one side of the packaging.
  • the manufactured packaging has the advantage that a hermetic seal is made possible prior to the first opening and, in addition, that different materials can be used for the packaging top part and the packaging bottom part. Furthermore, the package can be repeatedly opened and closed reliably and it is ensured that the package remains in an open state, if desired.
  • the higher productivity packaging can be made with a thermoforming packaging machine, rather than packaging whose packaging top and packaging bottom are made from a single web of sheet material.
  • the inventive method enables the production of the advantageous packaging and at the same time a productive operation of the packaging machine.
  • the packaging 1 consists of an upper packaging part 2 and a lower packaging part 3.
  • the packaging upper part 2 is formed by deep drawing of a first sheet-like material in the form of a thermoplastically deformable plastic film.
  • the lower packaging part 3 is formed by deep drawing from a second sheet-like material in the form of a second thermoplastically deformable plastic film.
  • the packaging upper part 2 has a flat peripheral edge 20 which delimits a concavity or depression 21 which is formed by the material of the packaging upper part 2 being formed by deep drawing to one side away from the peripheral edge 20. Furthermore, a bulge 22 is formed on one side within the peripheral edge 20, which is formed in the opposite direction from the peripheral edge 20 away. The bulge 22 has a side surface 23 which extends substantially in a vertical direction away from a side of the peripheral edge 20. On the side surface 23, a projection 24 is formed.
  • the trough 21 of the upper packaging part 2 has a further shape, which is substantially adapted to the shape of a product to be packaged. It may also have grooves or projections which increase the rigidity of the upper packaging part 2.
  • the packaging base 3 also has a flat peripheral edge 30 delimiting a concavity or shell 31 formed by deforming the material of the packaging base 3 by drawing it to one side away from the peripheral edge 30 so that the packaging base 3 is deformed
  • Substantially has the shape of a shell.
  • the bottom 32 of the shell 31 is provided with grooves 33 which increase the rigidity of the packaging base 3 and allow some gas circulation to the product from below. It can also be provided a more extensive shape, which is adapted to the shape of the product to be packaged.
  • a side wall 34 of the shell 31, which extends substantially perpendicular to the peripheral edge 30, is provided with a concavity 35 for cooperation with the projection 24, as best in the FIGS. 5 and 6 you can see.
  • the upper packaging part 2 and the lower packaging part 3 are brought together so that the peripheral edge 20 of the upper packaging part 2 and the peripheral edge 30 of the lower packaging part 3 lie flat on each other when the packaging is closed, as in FIGS Fig. 1 . 5 and 6 is shown.
  • the projection 24 of the upper packaging part 2 engages with closed package 1 in the concavity 35 of the packaging part 3 a.
  • a portion 20 a of the peripheral edge 20 of the Packing upper part 2 and a portion 30 a of the peripheral edge 30 of the packaging base 3 firmly welded together, as in the enlarged side view in Fig. 4 is shown for an opened pack.
  • Firmly welded means that the compound produced is not soluble during normal use of the packaging.
  • a weakening 30b of the material is provided in the peripheral edge 30 of the packaging base 3 on the side of the fixed welding.
  • the weakening 30b of the material is given by a reduction in the cross-sectional area of the material in the direction of the film thickness. This weakening means that the material is weakened compared to the other sides of the peripheral edge. Bending or buckling of the material is facilitated in the area of weakening against the other areas of the material.
  • the weakening of the material is formed in the illustrated embodiment by a notch 30b in the weld of the fixed seal between the portions 20a and 30a on the side of the packaging base 3.
  • the notch is formed by melting a recess in the bottom of the portion 20a in the tight welding of the packaging top 2 and packaging bottom 3 between the portions 20a and 30a.
  • the notch may also be formed on the side of the upper packaging part 2.
  • the upper packaging part 2 and the lower packaging part 3 are first sealed together with filled product along the peripheral edges 20, 30 and non-detachably welded in the region of the sections 20a and 30a, so that the interior of the package is hermetically sealed.
  • a protective gas such as CO 2 or the like, be replaced to prevent spoilage of the filled product.
  • the seal between the upper packaging part 2 and the lower packaging part 3 is released by pulling them apart.
  • the corners 1 a and 1 b of the package opposite the side of the fixed seal are specially shaped as in FIGS Fig. 1, 2 and 3 is shown.
  • the lower packaging part 3 in the corners 1a and 1b on an offset 3a and 3b, which causes the packaging base 3 and the packaging shell 2 with closed packaging in the corners 1a and 1b are not completely on each other and thus of these starting can be easily pulled apart.
  • Such an offset may alternatively be formed on the packaging upper part 2.
  • the portions 20a and 30a do not separate from each other.
  • Fig. 4 is represented by the weakening of the material on the side of the fixed welding a kink fold is formed, which allows a folding of the package like a hinge.
  • the weakening shown in the region of the packaging base 3 causes a kinking in its material.
  • the packaging When reclosing the packaging, the packaging folds back around the point of weakening. On the opposite side of the package, a slight elastic deformation of the side surface 23 with the projection 24 and the side wall 34 with the concavity 35 is made possible.
  • the packaging can be closed so that the projection 24 engages in the concavity 35. By this latching mechanism, the package is securely held in the reclosed position.
  • packaging upper part 2 and the lower packaging part 3 are formed from mutually different sheet-like materials, e.g. different colored materials can be chosen or part of the packaging can be made transparent. Furthermore, different thicknesses of materials can be used, and thus the package can be realized at the same time cost and adapted to individual needs.
  • the package may be used as a portion-serving food service unit, such as e.g. cheese or sausage products in the form of a slice, of piece goods in solid form or else of goods in spreadable form, etc.
  • a portion-serving food service unit such as e.g. cheese or sausage products in the form of a slice, of piece goods in solid form or else of goods in spreadable form, etc.
  • the weakening may alternatively be produced by a perforation, a squeezing of the material or similar processing, as described above. It is important, however, that the weakening is designed such that unfolding the packaging is facilitated.
  • the latching mechanism which in the described embodiment by the projection 24th and the concavity 35 is formed, which form a tail can be formed differently.
  • a protrusion can be formed on the packaging base 3 and a matching concavity on the packaging upper part 2.
  • other locking mechanisms are possible, but are advantageous shapes that can be produced in a conventional deep-drawing process.
  • the locking mechanism must allow a stable reclosure.
  • the latching mechanism is located on the opposite side of the fixed welding, resulting in a particularly stable closure, however, it is also possible to arrange a latching mechanism laterally.
  • the package of the described embodiment has a substantially rectangular cross-section, it may also have other shapes depending on the requirements, e.g. triangular, polygonal, round, oval, etc.
  • Fig. 7 is shown schematically, in the packaging machine in a forming station 11 by means of deep-drawn packaging upper parts 2 of a first web-shaped material 6 in the form of a thermoplastically deformable plastic film is produced, which is subtracted from a film roll 9.
  • a previously arranged forming station 10 are formed by deep drawing packaging lower parts 3 of a second web-shaped material 7 in the form of a thermoplastically deformable plastic film, which is also deducted from a film roll 8.
  • the packaging upper parts 2 and the lower packaging parts 3 are brought together and in a sealing station 12, the re-releasable seal along the peripheral contour of the packaging is generated.
  • a filling station is arranged, which in the representation of Fig. 7 for the sake of simplicity is not shown.
  • the packaging is filled with products and eventually the packaging is evacuated and the atmosphere in it is replaced by inert gas.
  • a welding station 13 is arranged, in which the firm welding of the packaging upper part 2 and the packaging lower part 3 in the sections 20a and 30a is produced and the weakening of the material for producing the buckling fold is carried out.
  • a transverse cutting of the packages is carried out in a cross-cutting station 14 and in a following longitudinal cutting station 15, the produced packages 1 are completely separated out of the sheet-like material and deposited on a transport device 16 in the form of a conveyor belt.
  • the resealable sealing takes place along the peripheral contour in the sealing station 12 and at the same time the firm welding and creating the weakening as a melted groove at a higher temperature and a higher pressure in the welding station 13.
  • These two steps can alternatively also in a Station can be performed in combination.
  • the solid welding does not have to be done by introducing thermal energy, but can e.g. also by ultrasonic welding or the like.
  • the cutting of the package can also be done differently, e.g. in the form of a complete punching in one step.
  • the weakening may also be produced by creating a perforation or pinch, as described with respect to the packaging.
  • the sealing station 12 or the welding station 13 is formed accordingly or it is provided a corresponding separate station.
  • the implementation of the method according to the invention is made possible and a packaging can be produced which has the features and advantages of the described packaging.
  • the individual stations of the packaging machine are designed such that all the features of the packaging described above can be generated.
