Definitions

  • This invention relates to reinforced containers formed from corrugated board or similar packaging materials which are suitable for containing fluid filled bags, such as bags of mixer syrups for making beverages, and other products requiring extra packaging support or stacking strength.
  • Syrups used for the production of soft drinks are packaged in flexible plastics bags which are in turn supported by a protective box for transportation and storage. Such syrups are heavy and the protective box must therefore be sufficiently strong to contain the bag during storage, handling and dispensing of the syrup through a closure attached to the bag and supported by one end of the box. Boxes suitable for such syrup bags must have a predetermined stacking strength and burst resistance, otherwise the sides of the box can bulge and rupture thereby risking loss or contamination of the contents.
  • the invention therefore provides a container formed from corrugated board or similar packaging materials, including a base panel, a top panel, side panels and end panels which together form a closed container, said side panels having extension portions which are folded and secured to form double thickness end flaps which are foldable inside the end panels, the extension portions at at least one end of the side panels having a further portion which is secured to reinforce each side panel.
  • a container of the above defined configuration has increased stacking strength and burst resistance using standard grade board thereby resulting in significant cost savings.
  • the extension portions at one end of the side panels form double thickness end flaps, while the extension portions at the other end form both double thickness end flaps and side panel reinforcing portions.
  • the extension portions defining the first mentioned double thickness end flaps are further extended to provide part of the side panel reinforcement.
  • the extension portions at one end of the side panels include portions defining double thickness end flaps for one end of the container, side panel reinforcing portions and a portion forming double thickness end flaps with the extension portions at the other end of the side panels.
  • the corners of the container are substantially reinforced by the folded and secured extension portions thereby creating a container having superior stacking strength and burst resistance than the prior art container using a lower grade less expensive board.
  • the invention further provides a blank for forming a reinforced container, including a central panel portion defining a base panel, a top panel and end panels, side panel portions extending from said central panel portion defining side panels and reinforcing extension portions which are foldable and securable to form double thickness end flaps, at least one extension portion having a further portion which is securable to reinforce each side panel.
  • Typical embodiments of the blank are illustrated in Figures 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the accompanying drawings, as described further below. Brief Description of the Drawing
  • Figure 2 illustrates some of the steps involved in converting the blanket Figure 1 to a container
  • FIGS 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 illustrate modified blanks for forming containers embodying the invention
  • Figure 8 is a perspective view of a container formed from the blank of Fig. 7. Description of Preferred Embodiments
  • the blank from which the box or container embodying the invention is formed includes a base panel 1, a top panel 2, side panels 3 and 4, and end panels 5 and 6 which together form a closed container for a fluid-filled bag (not shown).
  • the side panels 3 and 4 are each formed with extension portions 7 and 8, which are adapted to be folded along lines 9 and 10 and glued to form double thickness end flaps 11 and 12 (Figure 2), said extension portions 7 and 8 having side wall reinforcing portions 13 and 14 extending therefrom and adapted to be adhesively secured to the side wall panels 3 and 4 as illustrated in Figure 2.
  • the top panel 2 include narrow securing flaps 15, 16 and 17 which are adapted to be folded against the side panels 3 and 4 and end panel 5 and adhesively secured thereto to square and close the container. It will be appreciated that the securing flap 17 is folded and glued to the end panel 5 only after the bag has been inserted into the box. It will also be noted that the end panel 5 is formed with a push out portion 18 adapted to receive a known dispensing valve attached to the fluid-filled bag. It will of course be appreciated that the end panels 5 and 6 are also adhesively secured to the double thickness end flaps 11 and 12 for further structural rigidity.
  • the double thickness end flaps 11 and 12 and the side panel reinforcing portions 13 and 14 formed by folding and gluing the extension portions 7 and 8 provide substantial reinforcement of the closed box, particularly at the corners, to provide a significant improvement in stacking strength and bulge resistance.
  • the blank illustrated in Figure 1 can be cut from standard grade corrugated board and the resulting box has strength characteristics which are superior to the prior art boxes for a lower overall cost.
  • extension portion 7 does not include portion 13, while extension portion 8 is dimensioned to extend from one end of side panels 3 and 4 to the other.
  • extension portion 8 is dimensioned to extend from one end of side panels 3 and 4 to the other.
  • extension portion 7 defines only a single end flap 18 while the extension portion 8 includes an additional end flap 19 which overlies and is glued to the end flap 18 when the extension portion 7 is folded as defined above. It has been found that this blank is more easily machine erected since only one extension portion needs to be folded.
  • FIG. 5 is similar to the embodiment of Figure 4 with the exception that the securing flaps 15 and 16 are centrally interrupted, as illustrated at 20, to increase the stacking strength provided by the side wall reinforcing portions 13 and 14. It will be appreciated that the embodiments of Figures 1 and 3 may be similarly modified.
  • the additional end flap 19 overlies the end flap 18 and is glued thereto.
  • the additional end flap 19 is shorter than the end flap 18 to allow for push in portion 18B which overlies push in portion 18A in the end panel 5 to facilitate access to the dispensing valve of the bag within the box.
  • this embodiment is similar to the embodiment of Figure 4.
  • the top panel 2 of the previous embodiments is centrally divided and securing flaps 15 and 16 are cut from the further flaps 14 as illustrated, and the side panels 3 and 4 have hand hold 22 cut therefrom.
  • the further panels 14 are secured to the side walls 3 and 4 with the intermediate panels 23 folded along the lines 10 to form double thickness end reinforcing portions as illustrated in Figure 8 of the drawings.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un contenant formé à partir de carton ondulé ou de matières d'emballage similaires, comprenant un panneau inférieur (1), un panneau supérieur (2), des panneaux latéraux (3, 4) et des panneaux de bout (5, 6), formant ensemble un contenant fermé. Ces panneaux latéraux possèdent des extensions (7, 8) pliées et fixées afin de former des rabats de bout ayant une double épaisseur, pliables à l'intérieur des panneaux de bout, les extensions (7, 8) d'au moins un bout des panneaux latéraux comprenant une partie supplémentaire (13, 14) fixée afin de renforcer chaque panneau latéral.
