Definitions

  • the invention relates to a blister pack for purchased items, in particular for tools, scissors or the like.
  • blister packs which consist of a back and a front side, wherein between the back and the front one or more interiors form in which the object of purchase is arranged.
  • the front side material may be made transparent, so that the presented in the interior product is clearly visible to the potential buyer.
  • the object of purchase is located in the closed interior of the blister pack, whereby a theft of one or more items disposed in the blister pack purchase items is almost avoided without destroying the packaging.
  • One of the disadvantages is that direct contact of the object of purchase arranged inside the blister pack is not possible.
  • the external appearance of the purchased object can be adversely affected by the overlying, transparent front by, for example, any light reflections negatively.
  • the Utility Model DE 8 410 675 U1 discloses a blister pack for a pair of scissors, which corresponds to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a blister pack for purchased items, which avoids the disadvantages mentioned above, in particular a blister pack is created, which is simple in design, allows a good presentation of the object purchased and also offers a high level of security against theft.
  • the core idea of the present invention is to provide a blister pack with a rear side and a profiled executed front side, which has at least a plurality of externally accessible receiving areas.
  • each receiving area extends in the direction of the rear side and is essentially adapted to the contour of the object of purchase.
  • the profiling is formed by the receiving area extending in the direction of the rear side.
  • Between the front and the back of an interior is formed, which is limited at least by the front, back and the receiving area.
  • the purchased items can be any products such as tools, tool accessories such as drills, chisels, pliers, saw blades, hammers, screwdrivers or scissors ect.
  • the back and the front side are positively and / or positively and / or materially connected, wherein the externally arranged receiving area is formed as a kind of concavity.
  • the externally arranged receiving area is formed as a kind of concavity.
  • trough-shaped concavity of the respective object of purchase can be introduced, the outward-facing surface is exposed and is not covered by the front.
  • the potential buyer can at least feel this freely accessible arranged area of the object of purchase, whereby the quality of the show of the product in the blister pack is substantially improved.
  • the front side and the rear side of the blister pack are to be understood in the present invention as independent elements which are connected to each other.
  • the blister pack has a theft protection, which is arranged in particular in the interior, on the front or on the back.
  • the anti-theft device can have at least one codable security tag, so that it is ensured that each blister pack can be read by a corresponding reader and, if necessary, deactivated. Without reading or deactivating the security label, a warning signal, in particular a warning tone, can be automatically emitted by the corresponding reading device.
  • the security label consists of a metal and / or magnetic label.
  • the security label may in another embodiment be an RFID tag. But it can also consist of a so-called barcode label.
  • the security label is strip-like, so that in addition to the largest possible coding surface a space-saving arrangement of the blister pack is possible.
  • Said security label can be positively and / or positively and / or cohesively attached to the front or the back.
  • the security label may be glued to the front or back.
  • the security label can be located inside the interior, wherein the security label does not necessarily have to be fixed to the front or the back. In this embodiment of the invention it is ensured that the security label can not or only with difficulty be removed. At least opening of the blister pack is necessary, which is simultaneously associated with a destruction of the blister pack. Another advantage of an arrangement of theft protection inside the interior can be seen in a quick and easy attachment to the blister pack.
  • each receiving area has openings through which a holding element for fixing the object extends.
  • the retaining element may be, for example, a plastic strip that intractably holds the article in the receiving area.
  • the plastic band is designed narrow to cover as possible, the object slightly.
  • the openings are arranged on the rear side facing surface of the receiving area.
  • the rear side is also formed with openings that lie directly below the openings of the receiving area.
  • the tether extends through the openings and is located directly on the object of purchase, wherein the free ends of the tether are located on the side facing away from the front side of the front side.
  • the free ends of the tether can be connected to each other in a variety of ways.
  • the holding strap has a latching means and a counter-latching means, which engage in one another inseparably on the side of the rear side opposite the front side.
  • the holding element may consist of different materials.
  • the holding element is a plastic tape.
  • a metal wire as a holding element.
  • the volume of the receiving area / areas is at least 1/10, preferably at least 3/10, more preferably at least 4/10 and particularly preferably 5/10 the volume of the interior.
  • the height of the interior space is less than the height of the article. In this case, the product protrudes from the blister pack, which can increase the presentation effect.
  • Another measure improving the invention provides that the receiving area is designed such that the article is held positively and / or non-positively by the receiving area alone. In this embodiment of the invention, therefore, the purchased object is held solely by the walls of the receiving area.
  • a plurality of receiving areas are provided, which are at least a fictitious point or a fictitious area, which may be circular, for example can, are aligned.
  • an arcuate arrangement of the receiving areas to the said fictitious reference point is provided.
  • FIG. 1 a blister pack 10 according to the invention is shown, which has a rear side 11 and a front side 12. As can be clearly seen, in the present embodiment, the front side 12 on five receiving areas 13, in which a purchased item 20 is arranged in each case.
  • the purchase items 20 are various tools.
  • the receiving areas 13 are arranged to be accessible to the user from the outside, that is to say the objects of purchase 20 placed in the receiving area 13 can be felt by the potential buyer.
  • the receiving areas 13 essentially have the contour of the purchased item 20.
  • the receiving area 13 extends in the direction of the rear side 11, whereby a trough-shaped concavity is formed.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates the front side 12 is executed profiled due to the receiving areas 13.
  • the profile is formed by the individual receiving areas 13.
  • the front side 12 is a transparent, thermoformable plastic hard film, for example PET (polyethylene terephthalate, PP (polypropylene), PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) or PS (polystyrene).
  • the back 11 is made of cardboard, paper, cardboard or the like.
  • the back 11 may consist of a plastic film. It is particularly advantageous that the back 11 is made of a printable material, so that this back 11 can simultaneously serve as an information carrier.
  • the back 11 can be printed on both sides. Since the front side 12 is made of a transparent plastic, the front side 12 facing side of the back 11 can serve as information carrier for the customer readily.
  • the receiving areas or areas 13 are essentially formed by the walls of the inner space 14.
  • a purely schematically illustrated theft protection 16 which is designed as a security label in the form of an RFID label.
  • This security label 16 is inserted only in the interior 14 and is thus within the interior 14 by a movement of the blister pack 10 movable.
  • this anti-theft device 16 may be attached to the front side 12 or the back 11, which is not explicitly shown.
  • the blister pack 10 is further provided with openings 17 through which a plastic band 18 extends and at the same time holds the article 20 reliably in the respective receiving area 13.
  • each receiving area 13 each have two openings 17, which is sufficient for reliable fixation of the purchased item 20.
  • the free ends of the respective plastic strip 18 have on the front side 12th facing away from the back 11 latching and counter-locking means, which cause a permanent attachment of the object of sale 20.
  • the volume of the receiving areas 13 is approximately 3/10 of the volume of the inner space 14 in the case of the blister pack 10 according to the invention. This results in a compact arrangement of the purchased items 20 on the blister pack 10.
  • the purchased items 20 protrude a little out of the receiving area 13. This means that the height of the inner space 14 is made smaller than the height of the object 20.
  • the blister pack 10 has an edge region 19, in which the rear side 11 and the front side 12 lie directly on one another, the edge region 19 being arranged above, laterally and below the interior space 14.
  • the front side 12 is at 180 on the left, right and at the lower edge region 19 ° turned around the back 11, which is sufficient for reliable attachment of the back 11 on the front side 12.
  • the back 11 and the front side 12 may be connected to each other by other positive and / or non-positive and / or cohesive fasteners, which, however, is not shown.
  • the upper edge region 19 has two fastening openings 21, which are arranged at a distance from one another and against which the blister pack 10 can be suspended.
  • the five receiving areas 13 are arranged around a fictitious point 15 arcuate.
  • a compact arrangement of the articles 20 become.
  • the openings 17 arcuately positioned around the notional point 15 in the receiving area 13.
