BOTTLE PACK CONTAINER

Abstract: A bottle pack container, made preferably of cardboard or pasteboard, assembled of two carrying belts (1) connected with a lock (2) forming a grip (4). Each carrying belt (1), appropriately formed, includes at least one partially cut-out ring (16) provided with a recess (17). A banding tape is introduced through holes (29) of each carrying belt (1) to fasten the container.

Description: Bottle Pack Container The subject of the invention is a bottle pack container, especially for bottles with contents, made preferably of cardboard or pasteboard Known from the Polish patent application P 307276, of the same applicant, the container for carrying bottles with contents, made preferably of cardboard or pasteboard, formed of a carrying belt symmetrical with regard to the axis along which the edge of folding is placed, outwards of which the shaft panel fitted with the lock hole is placed, which is separated by the bend from the bottom panel, which is separated by the bend from the face panel joint with the shaft panel with the clamping arms, whereas the clamping arms are formed by bending the arms of the face panel along the bends turning these arms and threading their ends through the lock hole, and finally, by folding both shaft panels with respect to the folding edge of the carrying belt This known solution has a disadvantage because the carrying belt is too long with regard to the width effecting technological difficulties Moreover, the container must be delivered to the work post, where bottles are loaded into it, in a completely assembled shape and thus in stiffed spatial dimensions Yet another drawback of this solution is lack of partitions between bottles causing their banging against each other duπng transport Also the inability of stable embedding in the nest of the container of more than only four bottles is a significant disadvantage The purpose of the invention is a bottle pack container which would not have disadvantages of the known solution, An another purpose of the invention is a bottle pack container suitable for industry, and thus for an automated production process This purpose has been already achieved by the bottle pack container, especially for bottles with contents, preferably made of cardboard or pasteboard, comprising two carrying belts forming double shaft , fitted with openings connected by lock forming the grip According to the invention, each carrying belt includes a partially cut-out πng provided with a recess The πng has two lateral wings bent at right angle along the linear bends / with regard to the base of the said πng This ring has also a frontal wing bent at right angle along the another linear bends with regard to the base of the said πng , and also a riser located at the elongation of the said frontal wing This riser is fixed to the reverse of the face of the carrying belt In the embodiment each carrying belt has two symmetrically distributed holes ,each of which is connected through cut with the edge of carrying belt Each hole is connected through linear bends with the edge of the carrying belt Preferably, holes are rectangular In the other embodiment each carrying belt additionally includes at least one partially cut-out πng provided with a recess In a vanant of this embodiment each carrying belt includes at least one partially cut-out half-ring formed by dividing the ring with regard to it symmetry axis, provided with a recess Containers produced in this way , are characterised by low material consumption, easy servicing requiring only a single move forming the spatial construction for filling with bottles, and increased possibilities of lifting bottles with content, effectively increasing the market value A girded tape threaded through holes in the face of both carrying belts assembles a bottle pack container and stabilise a set of carried bottles The use of a girded tape effectively eliminates the container clamping arms, simplifying the shape of the cut-out carrying belt, limiting its length and width to an essential minimum, and guaranteeing safety for the bottles transported in the container The recess of a partially cut-out ring forms the nest for the bottle, preventing its displacement along the bottom, and the bending of the lateral wings of the said ring facilitates separating three bottles from each other, placed in a row After loading the bottle set, the tape is blown into the face holes, where a cut and two bends connecting each hole with the edge of the carrying belt form an elastic trap preventing the girded tape from falling out, also after emptying the container and folding The subject of the invention is shown in embodiments on the drawing in which fig 1 presents the bottle pack container the carrying belt of which is expanded on the surface, fig 2 - the ring with wings expanded on the surface, fig 3 - container in the state ready for loading bottles in a perspective view The container is assembled of two identical carrying belts I (fig 1) The carrying belt I contains a lock 2 used for connecting two carrying belts I, a shaft 3 constituting the carrying wall of the container and a grip 4 fitted with an opening 5 The shaft 3 is separated from a bottom 7 with a bend 6, and the bottom 7 is separated with a bend 8 from a face 9 The shaft 3 includes in its middle part, a partially cut-out ring j_6 (fig 2) provided with a recess 17, two lateral wings J_8 and a frontal wing 19 The ring 16 has a bend 20 connecting this πng with the shaft 3, two bends 2_1 connecting with lateral wings 18 and two bends 22 connecting with frontal wings 19 The frontal wing 19 contains a riser 23 along its elongation fixing to the reverse of the face 9 Each carrying belt 1 has two symmetπcally distributed holes 29 The said holes may be of different shapes, preferably rectangular Each of the said holes 29 is connected through a cut 30 and bends 3J . with proper edge of the carrying belt 1 The container is formed into a flat construction m the following way the ends of two carrying belts 1 are bent along the bend 8, pressing reverse of the face 9 towards the initially glued frontal wings . 19 and πsers 23 Then, said carrying belts 1 are assembled into the double shaft 3 by the threading lock 2 of one belt through the opening 5 of the second belt 1 and the bending lock 2 into the grip 4 The concise flatted container is formed into a spatial construction in one move, by opening the bending angle of both carrying belts 1 along bends 8, preferably by an angle of 90 degree, what causes simultaneous bending of bends 6, 20 and 22 Bends 2! of the ring 16 bow down under the pressure of bottles fixed outside of this ring, placing lateral wings 18 at right angle to the base of the said πng 16, and the complete construction is stiffened by pushing it outwards by the volume of loaded bottles While blowing the tape into holes 29 and fastening its ends into the girded tape, preferably of polypropylene, is introduced into holes 29 through cuts 30 and directed to the propei position through elastic bends 31 located on both sides of each cut 30 By making an extra, at least one, partially cut-out πng J_6, after respective elongation of the width of the carrying belts 1 (fig 1), ten - or more - bottles can be packed into one container By making a half-ring, formed by dividing ring Jj3 with regard to symmetry axis, after respective diminishing of the width of the carrying belts 1, the packing of four bottles into one container is possible The above solutions are applicable as the bottle container, especially glass bottles for beer, wine or other drinks In this case, the height of the double shaft 3 is preferably equal to or lower than the height of the bottle placed in the container, what enables quick placement of the containers into rows, layers, and stacks The above solutions are also applicable as container for other than bottle type units, especially jars, cans or bags In this case, the units preferably reaches with its height as far as the base of the opening 5 uncovering the lock 2 of the shaft 3 of carrying belts 1 As the double shaft 3 of carrying belts 1 is connected by the lock 2 in the upper part of the said shaft 3, while setting containers into layers, the grip of the container from the lower layer fits between carrying belts 1 of the double shaft 3, and the bottom of-the container from upper layer is supported by the tops of lower units while settled in the stack In the case of the above indicated applications the effectiveness of using a container is dependent on the stiffness of the unit body and the symmetry of placing the double body of said units with regard to the double shaft 3_ of carrying belts 1
