Definitions

  • the invention relates to a floor stand according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a floor stand is known from EP-A-54 884, in particular FIG. 5.
  • the columnar base with the two side walls, a front wall and a rear wall has a relatively low height.
  • the side walls are divided by a vertical hinge line into a front and a rear partial surface.
  • tabs are arranged on the upper edges via hinge lines, which support the receptacle in the set-up position.
  • the flap adjoining the rear wall is divided into a pull flap and an end flap fastened to the bottom of the receptacle by a fold line parallel to the adjacent hinge line, the pull flap and the end flap lying flat against the bottom of the receptacle in the deployed position of the floor stand.
  • the receptacle is raised on a side that is not connected to the front flap, so that it pivots together with the front flap about the hinge line between this and the front wall.
  • the line of articulation between the front and rear flaps is pulled upwards, so that the two flaps form an increasingly acute angle with each other and thereby fold the two side walls of the base inwards about their vertical articulation lines, the distance between the front wall and the rear wall the base steadily reduced.
  • the base is folded into a flat package.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a floor stand of the type specified so that a better presentation of the objects arranged in the receptacle is achieved by the receptacle can be arranged obliquely on the floor stand, but without the support of the components of the base Set up and should be affected when folding.
  • the rear wall is initially formed higher than the front wall in the floor stand according to the invention.
  • a cutout is made in the two side walls of the base at the upper end, into which the receptacle protrudes in the set-up position of the floor stand. This cutout picks up the receptacle in the set-up position and supports it on the rear wall and towards the floor by corresponding edges that delimit the cutout.
  • the front flap is bent into the cutout around the front hinge line, so that the receptacle is then reliably held and supported via the flap, which then lies in the position defined by the front edges in the set-up position for use.
  • the floor stand can be easily folded with one hand into the non-use position; for this purpose, the receptacle is grasped in its upper, free edge and tilted around the front hinge line, the pull tab being carried along over the bottom of the receptacle, which in turn moves the rear wall against the front wall, so that the two side walls then fold inwards about the vertical hinge lines .
  • the rear edge of the cutout is aligned at right angles to the front edge and that in the two rear edges near the intersection with the front edges each have a substantially semicircular recess for pivoting the connecting line between the floor and Wall of the receptacle is incorporated.
  • This configuration of the floor stand has the advantage that the container rests with its wall and bottom on the straight edges of the cutouts, so that even heavy objects can be picked up without the base being deformed in its position of use.
  • a further embodiment of the invention provides that the rear wall and the associated rear partial surfaces of the two side walls have a circumferential, lower and a circumferential, upper bending line parallel to this and to the upper edge of the rear wall, the distance from which essentially the height of the corresponds to the front flap connected wall of the receptacle, with the distance of the upper bending line from the crease line between the pull tab and the end flap essentially the distance between this fold line and the in the folded non-use position of the floor stand Connection line between the wall and the bottom of the receptacle corresponds.
  • This configuration opens the possibility of folding the base so far in the folded state that it can be folded with its free end around the front hinge line and around the lower bending line onto the opening of the receptacle and thereby covers it.
  • a receptacle provided with four walls is completely closed. This enables a manufacturer to fill his goods for presentation or sale into the receptacle, which is ready for shipping to the dealer after the free part of the folded base has been folded over.
  • the floor stand consists of two parts, namely a base 10 and a receptacle 12. Both the base 10 and the receptacle 12 are folded from a single cardboard blank.
  • the cuboid-shaped receptacle 12 in the exemplary embodiment has a bottom 14, a front wall 16, a rear wall 18 and two longitudinal walls 20.
  • the base 10 is columnar in the set up state of use and open at the top and bottom. It consists of two side walls 22, a front wall 24 and a rear wall 26 which, when set up, form a rectangular or square cross section of the base 10.
  • the two side walls 22 are each divided by a vertical joint line 28 into a front partial surface 30 and a rear partial surface 32 of the same width but different height.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 also clearly show that the rear wall 26 is higher than the front wall 24.
  • the front wall 24 is connected to a front flap 36 via a hinge line 34, while the rear wall 26 is connected to a rear flap 40 via a hinge line 38.
  • the two hinge lines 34 and 38 run parallel to one another.
  • the rear flap 40 is divided by a fold line 42 parallel to the two joint lines 34 and 38 into a pull plate 44 lying between the joint line 38 and the fold line 42 and an end plate 46.
  • the receptacle 10 is fastened to the front bracket 36 with its front wall 16, while its bottom 14 is secured to the end bracket 46.
  • the front tab 36 and the end tab 46 are glued to the container parts mentioned.
  • the attachment of the end flap 46 to the bottom 14 of the receptacle 12 takes place in such a region of the bottom 14 that the rear flap 40 lies flat against the bottom 14 in the deployed use position of the floor stand and is angled about its hinge line 38 to the opposite, front flap 36 .
  • the two side walls 22 of the base 10 each have a cutout 48 at their upper ends, which is delimited by a front, straight edge 50 and a right, rear, straight edge 52 in the set use position of the floor stand.
  • a semi-circular recess 56 is machined into the two rear edges 52 of the cutouts 48 in the vicinity of the intersection 54 with the front edges 50. As FIG. 3 shows, this recess 56 serves to pivot the connecting line 58 between the base 14 and the front wall 16 of the receptacle 12.
  • the rear wall 26 of the base 10 and the rear partial surfaces 32 connected to it have a circumferential, lower bending line 60 and an upper bending line 62 parallel to and to the rear hinge line 38 and thus the upper edge of the rear wall 26.
  • the distance a between the two bending lines 60 and 62 essentially corresponds to the height h of the front wall 16 of the receptacle 12.
  • the distance b + c of the upper bending line 62 also corresponds to the crease line 42 between the pull tab 44 and the end tab 46 essentially the distance d between this kink line 42 and the connecting line 58 between the front wall 16 and the bottom 14 of the receptacle 12;
  • the dimension b is the distance between the upper bending line 42 and the rear hinge line 38, while the dimension c is the distance of the rear hinge line 48 from the kink line 42.
