Definitions

  • the package comprises a sleeve having opposed open ends, wherein at least one of the tab members is wholly or substantially within the sleeve when in the closed position and can protrude from the sleeve through one or other of the open ends when moved in either of the first and second directions.
  • the or each tab member may be shorter than or equal to the length of the sleeve.
  • one or both of the tab members may include extended portions which protrude from the sleeve when said tab member is in the closed position, thereby enabling a user easily to grasp and pull the extended portion to open the package.
  • the box 10 includes a hollow rectangular body or sleeve 12 defining a through passage for housing a first tab member 14 and a second tab member 16.
  • the sleeve 12 has an upper wall 18, a lower wall 20, two side walls 22, 24 and two open ends 26, 28.
  • the box 10 also includes a planar divider 30 extending across the passage, between the open ends 26, 28 of the sleeve 12, and dividing the passage into upper and lower passages.
  • the tab members 14, 16 extend the length of the through passage and, in this embodiment, are dimensioned so that they can be accommodated wholly within the sleeve 12.
  • the first tab member 14 is housed in the lower passage, and the second tab member 16 is housed in the upper passage.
  • the tab members 14, 16 are movable back and forth, relative to the divider 30 and the sleeve 12, towards and away from one another.
  • FIG. 6 A further embodiment of the invention is shown in Figure 6 , in which the bonds 45, 46 are offset from one another, but are not equidistant from the plane Z.
  • movement of the first tab member 14 in the direction of arrow X, and movement of the second tab member 16 in the direction of arrow Y, is delimited by the second bond 46 reaching an end 37 of the belt path, despite the first bond 45 not reaching the other end 39 of the belt path.
  • the box 10 is in the first fully open position, whereby the tab members 14, 16 project from the sleeve 12 to a first maximum extent as indicated by the double-headed arrows 47.

    ein erstes und ein zweites Laschenelement (14, 16), die derart an dem Gurt (42) befestigt sind, dass, wenn das erste Laschenelement (14) in einer ersten Richtung bewegt wird, das zweite Laschenelement (16) durch den Gurt (42) angetrieben wird, sich in einer zweiten Richtung, die sich von der ersten Richtung unterscheidet, zu bewegen,
    wobei die Laschenelemente (14, 16) durch jeweilige Verbindungen (45, 46) an dem Gurt befestigt sind, wobei die Bewegung der Laschenelemente (14, 16) in beiden Richtungen dadurch begrenzt wird, dass wenigstens eine Verbindung (45, 46) ein Ende der Gurtbahn erreicht,
    dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass, wenn sich wenigstens eines der Laschenelemente (14, 16) in einer geschlossenen Stellung befindet, die zugeordnete Verbindung (45, 46) von den Enden der Gurtbahn aus nach innen angeordnet ist, so dass sich das Laschenelement (14, 16) aus der geschlossenen Stellung sowohl in die erste als auch in die zweite Richtung bewegen kann, bevor die Verbindung (45, 46) ein Ende der Gurtbahn erreicht, um die Bewegung zu begrenzen.
  2. Verpackung nach Anspruch 1, wobei die Verbindung (45, 46), welche die Bewegung des oder jedes Laschenelements (14, 16) begrenzt, im Wesentlichen auf halber Strecke zwischen den Enden (37, 39) der Gurtbahn angeordnet ist, wenn sich wenigstens eines der Laschenelemente (14, 16) in der geschlossenen Stellung befindet.
  3. Verpackung nach Anspruch 1, wobei die jeweiligen Verbindungen (45, 46) gegeneinander versetzt sind, wenn sich jedes der Laschenelemente in seiner geschlossenen Stellung befindet.
  4. Verpackung nach Anspruch 3, wobei die Verbindungen (45, 46) im Wesentlichen gleich weit von einer Ebene entfernt sind, die eine Trennwand (30) senkrecht an einer Position, im Wesentlichen auf halber Strecke zwischen den Enden (37, 39) der Gurtbahn, schneidet.
  5. Verpackung nach Anspruch 3, wobei die Verbindungen (45, 46) in unterschiedlichen Ausmaßen gegenüber einer Ebene versetzt sind, die eine Trennwand (30) senkrecht an einer Position, im Wesentlichen auf halber Strecke zwischen den Enden (37, 39) der Gurtbahn, schneidet.
