Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a packing insert for secure packing of ice cones, the insert including shaped cavities, each adapted for receiving stacked ice cones.
  • Baked ice cones e.g. in the form of circular flat wafers which are rolled into cones, are very difficult to package in a way such that the baked, crisp ice cones do not break and at the same time maintain their tasty, crispy character.
  • the invention has the purpose of indicating a new and improved packing insert for use in secure packing of baked, crisp ice cones.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide an insert which is an environmental product consisting of decomposable natural products.
  • a packing insert for secure packing of ice cones including shaped cavities, each adapted for receiving stacked ice cones, wherein the insert is designed as a stackable shell, and where the insert consists of decomposable natural fibres.
  • the shaped cavities are formed in such a way that the stacked ice cones are supported along the part of the cone which is in contact with the cavity.
  • the shaped cavities will therefore vary in size, depending on the cone size they are intended for. This means that if the cone is large, the shaped cavity will also be large, but if the cone is small, the shaped cavity will be correspondingly small.
  • the insert is designed as a shell consisting of decomposable natural fibres.
  • the decomposable natural fibres will be processed into a kind of paper pulp with a given thickness.
  • Use of the decomposable natural fibres means that the insert can be reduced to vegetable mould.
  • the insert therefore does not contain any artificial substances that are to be disposed in a special way, providing the insert as an environmentally friendly item.
  • Paper in this application is to be understood as a mass achieved by processing the decomposable natural fibres.
  • cones and “ice cones” in the application is meant approximately conical cones in which ice can be placed.
  • decomposable natural fibres means that a CO 2 -neutral product is achieved, making the insert further environmentally friendly.
  • the paper thickness of the shell is preferably 200-320 g/m 2 , more preferred 230-290 g/m 2 , most preferred 260 g/m 2 .
  • the insert is made by compression moulding of the paper material for achieving the desired shell shape.
  • Shell shape in this regard is to be understood such that the paper material is formed into a shell where elevations at the front side of the insert will entail depressions/hollows at the back side, and vice versa.
  • the front side of the insert is meant the side where the cones are arranged for packing whereas the back side will be the opposite side.
  • the thickness of the paper for the insert will be approximately uniform for the entire insert.
  • the design of the insert with several cavities entail that in spite of the choice of material there is achieved a rigidity of the material, including rigidity against twisting, such that the insert is not deformed during transport and handling and thereby continuously protects the ice cones.
  • the shell will be designed in such a way that the inserts can be stacked as the compression moulding entails that elevations at the front side will result in hollows at the back side. This means that elevations from a first insert will fit into hollows on another insert, and vice versa. This causes that each insert during stacking will only fill a volume corresponding to the thickness of the paper.
  • the shell is therefore very space-saving, in particular with regard to storage of unused inserts.
  • the decomposable natural fibres are straw, sugar cane fibres, rice husks, reeds, or a mixture of one or more thereof.
  • Material from straw, sugar cane fibres, rice husks and reeds can easily be suspended in water for achieving a paper-like pulp which can be used for compression moulding of the insert.
  • the straw can e.g. be straw from durum wheat, wheat, rye, barley and/or from oats. Straw from other cereals can be used as well.
  • the straw is a mixture of straw from one or more cereals.
  • the decomposable natural fibres are 100% biologically decomposable.
  • all components in the insert are biologically decomposable.
  • the insert therefore does not contain e.g. additives which are not biologically decomposable. This has great significance to the decomposition of the insert as now it can be decomposed completely, for example in the nature or at disposal sites.
  • residual humidity is meant the amount of liquid left in the end product.
  • the residual humidity in the insert is preferably 0.01-5%, including residual humidity in the insert being 0.1-1%, including in particular residual humidity in the insert of about 0.5%.
  • 0.01-5% including residual humidity in the insert being 0.1-1%, including in particular residual humidity in the insert of about 0.5%.
  • the shaped cavities are arranged in parallel with each other.
  • utilisation of the insert is optimised for packing as many cones as possible per insert.
  • the cavities include an upright support part at at least one end.
  • the upright support part means that several inserts filled with cones can be stacked upon each other without destroying the cones. This is achieved in that during stacking, the projecting support part will provide spacing between a first insert with the projecting support part and a second insert which is superposed the first insert, as the upright support part supports the back side of the second insert. Spacing is thereby created between the first and second insert whereby the cones do not come into contact with the second insert.
  • the projecting support part is designed with a support face and a depression adapted in shape in continuation of the shaped cavity.
  • the shaped depression is adapted to the outermost cone in the stack why the entire cone is outermost and is to be supported. This means that the adaptation in shape will consist of a narrowing from the diameter corresponding to the top of the ice cone to the tip of the ice cone (the pointed end).
  • the support face of the support part on the first insert bears on the back side of the second insert.
  • This part of the insert will be elevated relative to the part of the support part which includes the shaped depression. Hereby is achieved spacing from the outermost cone in the first insert to the back side of the second insert.
  • the part of the support part including the shaped depression is at the same level as the shaped cavity.
  • the stacked cones lie at the same level. It is hereby prevented that the cones in the stack are twisted within themselves such that the cones more easily break, for example in that pieces are broken off along the upper edge of the cone.
  • the part of the support part including the shaped depression is at a level above the shaped cavity.
  • the part of the support part including the shaped depression starts at the same level as the shaped cavity, but the pointed end of the ice cone ends at a level above the shaped cavity.
  • the pointed end of the ice cone is hereby protected by being located at a higher level than the rest of the ice cone.
  • the support face is designed with a straight surface for placing the second insert in a stable way.
  • the filled inserts are hereby stacked in a simple way and can easily be removed from each other again.
  • the support face can be designed with e.g. a depression which can engage a projection at the back side of the second insert.
  • a simple reversible fastening ensuring that the second insert does to slide relative to the first insert, whereby the stack of filled ice cone inserts can overturn, causing destruction of ice cones.
  • the shaped cavities include recesses which due to the compression moulding will act as elevations at the back side of the insert.
  • the elevations or some of the elevations can function as support points for the support face.
  • additional spacing is created between two inserts stacked upon each other.
  • the compression moulding is performed in such a way that the surface of the support points is modified so that greater friction is attained between the support points and the support faces.
  • the modification can e.g. be done by changing the structure of the surface into a more coarse one.
  • the surface of the support faces can also be modified as described for the support points.
  • the support part has an aperture for receiving a pointed end of the stacked ice cones in continuation of the shaped depression.
  • the aperture is disposed and is of such size that the pointed end of the cone can be placed in the aperture.
  • the size of the aperture will therefore depend on the size of the cone and on how far the pointed end is to be put into the aperture, meaning if it is only the outermost part of the pointed end or e.g. a third of the pointed end.
  • the position of the stacked cones can be retained in relation to the shaped cavities during transport and handling.
  • the aperture is situated in such a way that the cone rests in the shaped depression and the shaped cavity when the pointed end is located in the aperture. If this is not the case, the cone may easily be destroyed during transport and handling.
  • the part of the pointed end passed through the aperture will be disposed in a hollow formed by the support part.
  • the hollow is formed due to the shell shape of the insert and by a part of the support part being at a different level than the part including the shaped depression, and which includes the support face.
  • the support parts are arranged alternatingly at opposite sides of the insert.
  • the stacked cones are hereby disposed in opposing directions such that the pointed ends of two rows placed in the shaped cavities beside each other will not be placed at the same side.
  • the second insert When the inserts are stacked, the second insert is turned 180° relative to the first insert before the second insert is disposed upon the first insert in order that it will be possible for the support faces to rest against the back side of the second insert and hereby create spacing between the inserts. If no turning of the second insert relative to the first insert is performed, the projecting support parts will be situated at the same place, and the support part of the first insert will be introduced in the hollow formed by the support part on the second insert. The second insert will hereby bear directly on the stacked cones in the first insert, and spacing will not be formed between the inserts and the cones will consequently break more easily.
  • This invention furthermore describes use of an insert as described above for packing and transporting ice cones.
  • the insert is designed such that it can be stacked in a space-saving way in the storeroom before use. It is usually a problem to find sufficient storage space for the present space-consuming inserts for packing ice cones why the shell shape design of the insert is very advantageous.
  • the insert is adapted to a cardboard box such that inserts filled with stacked cones can be put into standard cardboard boxes for packing.
  • the ice cones will thus be packed and protected during handling and transport.
  • Figs. 1-2 illustrate the front side of an embodiment of an insert 1 as seen from opposite sides.
  • Figs. 3-4 illustrate the back side of the same embodiment of an insert 1, as seen from opposite sides, where Figs. 1 and 4 and Figs. 2 and 3 show the insert 1 from the same side.
  • the insert 1 includes five parallel rows of shaped cavities 3a,b,c,d,e.
  • Each cavity 3a,b,c,d,e includes at one end an upright support part 5a,b,c,d,e which includes a support face 7a,b,c,d,e and a shaped depression 9a,b,c,d,e.
  • the support face 7a,b,c,d,e in this embodiment is an approximately horizontal surface.
  • the support part 5a,b,c,d,e includes an aperture 11a,b,c,d,e for locating the pointed end of the cone.
  • the shaped cavities 3a,b,c,d,e have a size which is adapted to the size of the stacked cones so that the cones are supported by the cavity 3a,b,c,d,e and are thereby protected during transport and handling. More specifically, this means that the size of the cavity corresponds to the size of the diameter at the top of the ice cones. The last ice cone of the stacked ice cones will be completely exposed. In order to support the conical structure of the last ice cone, the shaped depressions 9a,b,c,d,e are designed corresponding to the conical structure of the ice cone.
  • the insert 1 is designed as a shell wherein the material thickness is approximately the same for the entire insert 1.
  • the upright support parts 5a,b,c,d,e will be designed as hollows 17a,b,c,d,e as seen from the back side.
  • the aperture 11a,b,c,d,e in the support part will provide that the pointed end of the cone is located in the hollow 17a,b,c,d,e, why the pointed end is protected against destruction.
  • the shaped cavities 3a,b,c,d,e include depressions 13a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j ( Figs. 1 and 2 ) which at the back side form elevations 15a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j in part acting as support points ( Figs. 3 and 4 ) for the support face 7a,b,c,d,e.
  • an insert 1 as depicted in Fig. 1 will be placed upon an insert 1 as depicted in Fig. 2 , meaning that the two inserts 1 are turned 180° in relation to each other.
  • the support faces 7a,b,c,d,e at the lowermost insert 1 can hereby rest on the support points 15a,b,c,d,e at the back side of the upper insert 1 and thereby prevent the cones from being crushed between the two inserts 1.
  • the inserts 1 are stacked in that two superposed inserts are not rotated relative to each other.
  • the support parts 5a,b,c,d,e from the lower insert 1 will be disposed in the hollows 17a,b,c,d,e in the upper insert 1, why an insert 1 in a stack of inserts 1 will only fill the material thickness of the insert 1.
