Description

[0013] An example design of the invention based on the drawings is explained in detail below.

[0014] The drawings illustrate:

[0015] FIG. 1 a perspective view of a package and

[0016] FIG. 2 an enlarged view of a packaged side of the package.

[0017] A package for holding packageable goods, not illustrated here, consists of a packaging body 1 which is formed in the present embodiment by a first packaging part 2 and a second packaging part 3. The first packaging part 2 and the second packaging part 3 encompass a package volume, and can be arranged in the object as packaged goods. The packaging body 1 is formed like a shoe box, the first packaging part 2 has a base side 4 and the edge of the same has narrow sides at right angles 5. The second packaging part 3 also has a base side 6 and narrow sides 7 at right angles.

[0018] In order to seal the packaging body 1, the first packaging part 2 and second packaging part 3 are brought into contact with each other, wherein marginal edges 8 of the first packaging part 2 and marginal edges 9 of the second packaging part 3 are positioned flush to each other. The edges 8, 9 thus form a circumferential boundary line G of the packaging body 1. The edges 8 of the first packaging part 2 and the peripheral edge 9 of the second packaging part 3 are arranged in an edge portion of the first packaging part 2 and the second packaging part 3. The first packaging part 2 and the second packaging part 3 are arranged in each case somewhat in a trough-shape, wherein the short sides 5, 7 of the packaging part 2 and 3 certainly can have different heights.

[0019] To put the packaging body 1 in a transport position, the first packaging part 2 and the second packaging part 3 are brought into abutment to each other, as is evident in FIG. 1. The edges 8, 9 of the first packaging part 2 or second packaging part 3 are positioned flush to each other so that a cuboid packaging body 1 or a cuboid-shaped packaging with opposing large packaging sides 10 and connecting the same small packaging sides 11 are formed. The small packaging sides 11 of the packaging body 1 respectively faun a narrow side of the packaging body 1 with a depth t that runs vertical to the boundary line G. The large packaging sides 10 of the packaging body 1 are designed to have a large area relative to the packaging body 1 and extent parallel to each other at the distance t.

[0020] To fix the first packaging part 2 with the second packaging part 3 and for preparation for manual transport, a handle strap 12 designed as a carrying handle is provided, which at the respective ends 13 features a locking adhesive element 14. The handle strap 12 runs along the boundary line G of the packaging body 1. In the present exemplary embodiment, the handle strap 12 runs along three narrow sides 11, 11′, 11″ of the packaging body 1. The locking adhesive elements 14 are arranged on opposite narrow sides 11′, which in the present exemplary embodiment are arranged offset from each other in parallel. A carrying loop 21 is arranged on an upper narrow side 11″ of the packaging body 1, which connects the two opposite, preferably upright, narrow sides 11′. The narrow side 11″ of the packaging body 1 forms an upper side of the packaging body 1 in the transport position.

[0021] The strip-shaped handle strap 12 features the locking adhesive element 14 solely on the ends 13, wherein the locking adhesive element 14 is located in a fixing section 13 of the handle strap 12. A non-fixing section 20 of the carrying handle 12 connects to the locking adhesive element 14 or the fixing section 13 of the carrying handle 12, which extends from the one locking adhesive element 14 to the other locking adhesive element 14. In the transport position, the non-fixing section 20 of the carrying handle 12 lies flat on the opposite narrow sides 11′ of the packaging body 1, while on the upper narrow side 11″ it runs at a distance from the narrow side 11″ when the carrying loop 21 is grasped. The flat, non-adhesive contact of the non-fixing section 20 on the narrow sides 11′ of the packaging body 1 results in a tension acting on the handle strap 12, which is extended due to the upwardly acting holding force of the carrying loop 21.

[0022] The locking adhesive element 14 is—much like the handle strap 12—designed to be flat and features on one side 15 a bonding surface and also features a non-adhesive surface on the second 16. The locking adhesive element 14 is circular in design and has a size between the two opposite edges 17 of the adhesive surface or a diameter d in the range of 5 mm to 200 mm. The dimension of the locking adhesive element 14 is large enough that after removing a protective film, a formed self-adhesive film adhesive surface is exposed 15 so that after application of same to the marginal edge 8 of the first packaging part 2 and the peripheral edge 9 of the second packaging part 3, the edge portions of the two packing parts 2, 3, these are securely connected with each other. In the example presented, the locking adhesive elements 14 are preferably mounted at the same height on the opposite small packaging sides 11 of the packaging body 1, preferably equal marginal portions of the first packaging part 2 and the second packaging part 3 will be encompassed by the adhesive surface 15. The diameter of the locking adhesive element 14 may be in a range between 10 mm to 200 mm, preferably in the range of 10 mm to 80 mm, for example 35 mm. For example, the width of the strap handle 12 is 10 mm.

[0023] So that from the handle strap 21 for grasping fauns a carrying strap, the two locking adhesive elements 14 each form an adhesive point in such an area of the packaging sides 11 and are arranged so that the distance between the formed adhesive points along the packaging sides 10, 11 is less than the length the handle strap 12. Here it is assumed that the length of the handle strap 12 is defined by the distance between the two end locking adhesive elements 14 when the handle strap is extended 12.

[0024] Adhering the locking adhesive elements 14 thus forms a carrying strap 21, so that the packaging body 1 can be manually collected and transported.

[0025] In the present exemplary embodiment, due to the flush contact of the narrow sides 5, 7 of the first packaging part 2 with the second packaging part 3, the sum of the depths of these narrow sides 5, 7 corresponds to the depth t of the narrow side 11, 11′, 11″ of the packaging body 1. The locking adhesive element 14 features a dimension d that runs transverse to the handle strap 12 or transverse to the boundary line G, which is less than the depth t of the narrow side 11, 11′, 11″ of the packaging body 1 and which is larger than the half-depth t of the narrow side 11, 11′, 11″ of the packaging body 1. In the direction of the boundary line G and in the direction of the handle strap 12, the dimension d of the locking adhesive element 14 is less than the depth t of the narrow sides 11, 11′, 11″ of the packaging body 1 and greater than the half-depth t of the narrow sides 11, 11′, 11″ of the packaging body 1.

[0026] The dimension d of the locking adhesive element 14 is greater in the direction of the boundary line G and/or transverse to the boundary line G, and/or is unequal to a breadth b of the carrying strap 12 in the non-fixing section 20 of the same.

[0027] The first packing part 2 and the second packaging part 3 are preferably of equal size and respectively serve as packaging halves of the packaging body 1.

[0028] The handle strap 12 is integrally connected with the locking adhesive elements 14. The handle strap 12 may consist of a paper, plastic-natural material or a combination of these materials. The packaging body 1 may consist of a paper, cardboard, plastic material or non-woven material.

[0029] After the packaging body 1 has been transported to the desired location, by tearing away the locking adhesive elements 14 at the ends of handle strap 12 from the packaging body 1, it can be reopened, so that the packaged goods can be removed. The packaging material, which is formed by the container body 1 and the handle strap 12 and the locking adhesive elements 14 should, preferably, be made of the same material, so that all can be disposed together.

[0030] In an alternative, not depicted design of the invention, it is possible to use more than two locking adhesive elements 14 between the ends of the handle strap 12 or the carrying strap. Preferably, the locking adhesive elements 14 should be arranged an equal distance from each other or in an area near the end of the handle strap 12 rather than an area towards the center of the handle strap 12.

[0031] The locking adhesive elements 14 each form a fixing section of the handle strap 12. In a middle area of the handle strap 12 features a gripping section (carrying loop 21).

[0032] In an alternative, not depicted design of the invention, the locking adhesive elements 14 may also be polygonal or oval-shaped.

[0033] In an alternative, not depicted design of the invention, the peripheral edges 8, 9 of the packaging parts 2, 3 can also overlap, one above the other. The locking adhesive elements 14 cover this overlapping portion.

[0034] In an alternative, not depicted design of the invention, the packaging body 1 may also consist of more than two package parts. For sealing of the packaging body 1, at least at two portions thereof extend along the packaging parts so that the corresponding locking adhesive elements 14 can be mounted.
