Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cup board consisting of a carrier material, which on at least one surface side with a surface-rough imprint is provided.
  • Cup boards of this type are described in WO-A1-98 / 26931 by the applicant described.
  • Starting point for the provision of surface roughness Beaker boards were problems when destacking boards, which are stored in stacks after punching occur. Due to the smooth surface on both sides, it is better known Cup boards, they stick together so strongly when destacking, that often two or more cup boards are destacked at the same time be what, especially when using the cup boards when sealing with foods such as dairy products filled containers, leads to problems.
  • the surface is rough Imprint on cup boards of the type mentioned in at least a portion of the surface that is rough with the surface Print is provided, is left out.
  • This recessed Area can advantageously be the connection area between Include cup board and packaged goods container. Because this connection by means of a sealable coating on the packaged goods facing side of the cup board is generated, this is Area also called the sealing zone, which is dimensioned in the essentially corresponds to the container edge. By sealing the A cup plate with the edge of the packaged goods container is created Sealing seam, which is covered by the sealing zone. Is now inside the sealing zone and possibly no surface rougher Imprint provided, that is the recessed area encompasses the sealing zone, so it holds through the sealing seam trained connection between cup board and container also very high requirements.
  • a possible embodiment for the invention Providing cup board 1 according to FIG. 1a from FIG. 1 is done in the same way in Fig. 1b, the sectional view of Fig. 1a, represented by a carrier material 8, which advantageously in rolls is present.
  • carrier material components for example Aluminum foils, paper layers or plastic foils individually or used in combination with each other.
  • plastics those based on polypropylene, polyethylene, Polyamide or polyethylene terephthalate.
  • the carrier material 8 can be printed on the side 12 facing away from the packaged goods 13 be provided, which in its surface configuration can be smooth or rough.
  • the carrier material 8, optionally provided with the imprint 13 is now on the side facing the package 9 with a sealable coating 10 provided.
  • a sealable coating 10 provided.
  • This can, for example, in In the form of a heat-sealable lacquer, an extrusion coating, a hot melt coating or in the form of laminated, sealable Plastic films are available.
  • Shape and arrangement of the surface-rough imprint 3 can by Design of the surface of the printing rollers used varies become. These have circular surfaces, for example Wells, which roughen the surface in shape and height Imprint 3, as shown for example in Fig. 1a, correspond. This exemplary, rough-surface imprint 3 appears to the The viewer is punctiform and has the shape in the section according to FIG. 1b so-called "geometric spacer" 11.
  • the shape and height of the geometric spacers 11 can, as in Fig. 4, can be varied many times. According to variant 11a from FIG. 4a, the spacers are just as punctiform as those according to FIG. 1.
  • the height dimensions h of the spacers 11 and 11a are in one Range from 1 to 100 microns, preferably from 20 to 50 microns.
  • the diameter d is 0.2 to 30 mm, preferably 1 to 3 mm.
  • the punctiform, geometric spacers, as used as variant 11a in 4a are shown, have another on their surface Structuring in the form of additional points.
  • FIG. 4 Further configurations of the geometric spacers as described in Fig. 4 are shown, for example, the ellipsoid Spacers 11b according to FIG. 4b or the spacers 11c and 11d 4c and 4d, which have the shape of a square or rectangle to have. It is also possible to use other geometric shapes, for example a triangle, as shown in variant 11e from FIG. 4e use.
  • spacer groups 14 groups of geometric spacers, So-called “spacer groups” 14 as a rough surface print 3 to be used. Special configurations of these spacer groups are shown in Fig. 5, the variant 14a according to Fig. 5a Square, the variant 14b according to FIG. 5b a triangle and the variant 14c according to FIG. 5c show a star-shaped motif.
  • FIG. 6 Another embodiment in the form of a surface-rough imprint 3 is shown in the form of lines 15 in FIG. 6. These can for example, form the shape of a grid 16. Instead of crossing Lines are also only parallel to each other Lines 15 conceivable.
  • the printing roller surfaces are like this designed that the dimensions a, b, h, y, preferably in a range from 0.2 to 30 mm, the dimensions a, l, x in range from 0.2 to 30 mm.
  • the resulting surface roughness is in a range of 1 to 100 microns, preferably in a range from 20 to 50 ⁇ m.
  • the cup boards according to the invention can be from 20 to 50 ⁇ m particularly easy and quick after being stored in stacks unstack.
  • the distances of the lines x, y are in a range of 2 to 15 mm.
  • the width of the lines z is preferably 0.3 to 5 mm, the height of the lines h is around the To ensure de-stackability, in a range from 1 to 100 ⁇ m, preferably in a range from 20 to 50 ⁇ m.
  • FIG. 2 shows the Cup board 2, which has a predetermined breaking point 6, for example in Form of a pre-punched or perforated line.
  • a predetermined breaking point 6 is possible for the consumer Pressing in or partially peeling off the cup board from the area around the cup, preferably in the area of the tab 7, the cup only partially open. This is particularly the case with liquid packaged goods, like drinking yogurt, beneficial because of the remaining Mug board the spilling of the packaged goods can be avoided can. Since this predetermined breaking point 6 both during storage and mechanically unstable when transporting the cup board Represents the cup board 2, this should not unnecessarily burdened, for example by printing.
  • the predetermined breaking point 6 comprehensive area 17 when printing by stipulation of Touch marks left out.
  • the design of the surface rough As far as imprint 3 is concerned, here are the variants as they are 4 to 6 are possible.
  • the area the sealing zone which is not shown here, but in FIG. 1 with 4 is designated.
  • a recessed area 18 By printing on cup boards 1 or 2 with a rough surface Imprint 3 and with the help of tactile marks, it is further possible, as shown in Fig. 3 on the basis of the cup board 1, to create a recessed area 18.
  • This has a printed image, referred to as "LOGO", which in its surface design can be smooth or rough.
  • the "LOGO" can the shape of letters, letter combinations or imaginative Have configurations.
  • 3a, "LOGO" 18 is included a rough surface print 3 and a recessed area in the sealing zone 4 shown.
  • the rough surface print 3 also be attached to the grip tab 5.
  • the rough surface print itself can be used as rough letter combinations in the form of "logos" 3 ' are provided whose surface roughness is in a range of 1 to 100 ⁇ m, preferably 20 to 50 ⁇ m.
  • Fig. 3d also shows the cup board 1 in the area of the grip tab 5 surface-rough "logo" 3 '.
  • these logos can be used in their Surface finish can also be smooth, so that a variety of recessed areas 18 is formed in the form of "logos".
  • the recessed Area 4,17,18 in rough surface print 3,3 'of the invention Cup boards 1 or 2 a satisfactory connection between the cup and the cup board, even if Predetermined breaking points 6, is made possible.
  • the recessed one Area 4, which corresponds to the sealing zone ensures that also sensitive packaged goods, such as dairy products, after prolonged use Transport or, if necessary, improper storage, without hesitation is edible.
  • the feature of a recessed Area in rough surface printing the consumption of printing inks reduced, but still a rapid unstacking after the Storage of the cup boards according to the invention is made possible. This is because there is sufficient air due to the rough surface printing between the respective geometric spacers, spacer groups or linear grid structures is included, which the sticking together of cup boards when unstacking prevented.
