Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Maßnahmen hinsichtlich der Ausgestaltung und Fertigung von Verpackungen vorzuschlagen, die eine zuverlässige, gezielte Zerstörung der Banderole beim erstmaligen Öffnen der Packung gewährleisten und auch eine industrielle Fertigung solcher Packungen ermöglichen.The invention has for its object measures with regard to the design and propose packaging that will provide reliable, targeted destruction ensure the banderole when opening the package for the first time and also one enable industrial production of such packs.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist die erfindungsgemäße Verpackung dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Aufreißstreifen im Bereich der Steuerbanderole an der Innenseite der Steuerbanderole verläuft, derart, dass die Steuerbanderole beim Öffnen der Außenumhüllung durch den Aufreißstreifen ganz oder teilweise durchtrennbar ist.To achieve this object, the packaging according to the invention is characterized in that that the tear strip in the area of the tax label on the inside of the The control banderole extends in such a way that the control banderole when the outer casing is opened can be completely or partially severed by the tear strip.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung des Aufreißstreifens an der Innenseite der Banderole ist gewährleistet, dass beim Öffnen der Außen- bzw. Folienumhüllung mit Hilfe des Aufreißstreifens die Banderole durchtrennt wird. Der Aufreißstreifen wirkt im Bereich der Banderole wie ein Trennorgan.The inventive arrangement of the tear strip on the inside of the Banderole ensures that when opening the outer or foil wrapping with The banderole is cut with the help of the tear strip. The tear strip works in the Area of the banderole like a separator.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren sieht vor, dass eine fortlaufende Materialbahn nacheinander mit Banderolen und sodann mit dem fortlaufenden Aufreißstreifen versehen wird. Dieser liegt im Bereich der Banderole an deren Innenseite an.The method according to the invention provides that a continuous web of material in succession with banderoles and then with the continuous tear strip becomes. This lies in the area of the band on the inside.

In den Zeichnungen ist als Ausführungsbeispiel die Gestaltung von quaderförmigen Zigarettenpackungen 10 gezeigt. Diese sind quaderförmig gestaltet. Bei den meisten Typen von Zigarettenpackungen 10, insbesondere bei Klappschachteln (Hinge-Lid-Packungen) und Weichbecher-Packungen, ist die eigentliche Verpackung aus Papier, Karton oder dergleichen von einer Außenumhüllung 12 umgeben. Diese umschließt die eigentliche Verpackung vollständig. Bei Ingebrauchnahme der Verpackung wird die Außenumhüllung 11 entfernt.In the drawings, the design is an exemplary embodiment of rectangular cigarette packs 10 shown. These are cuboid design. For most types of cigarette packs 10, especially for hinged boxes (hinge-lid packs) and soft cup packs, is the actual packaging made of paper, cardboard or the like from an outer wrapper 12 surrounded. This encloses the actual packaging Completely. When the packaging is put into use, the outer wrapping 11 removed.

Die Außenumhüllung 11 besteht aus durchsichtigem bzw. glasklarem Verpackungsmaterial, nämlich aus dünnem Zellglas- oder Kunststoffolien. Fig. 2 zeigt einen Zuschnitt für eine derartige Außenumhüllung 11. Das Beispiel ist so gestaltet, daß die quaderförmige Verpackung nach dem Prinzip des Querwickelns umhüllt ist. Der Zuschnitt gemäß Fig. 2 besteht demnach aus Vorderwand 12, Rückwand 13, Seitenwänden 14 und 15. Letztere wird durch zwei einander teilweise überdeckende Wandlappen 16 und 17 jeweils am Rand des Zuschnitts gebildet. Der innere Wandlappen 16 wird bei der fertiggefalteten Außenumhüllung 11 von dem äußeren Wandlappen 17 überdeckt und ist mit diesem verbunden.The outer covering 11 consists of transparent or crystal clear Packaging material, namely from thin cellophane or Plastic films. Fig. 2 shows a blank for such a Outer casing 11. The example is designed so that the cuboid packaging wrapped according to the principle of cross winding is. 2 therefore consists of a front wall 12, rear wall 13, side walls 14 and 15. The latter is through two partially overlapping wall tabs 16 and 17 each formed on the edge of the blank. The inner wall rag 16 is in the finished folded outer envelope 11 by the outer wall cloth 17 covers and is connected to this.

Eine obere Stirnwand 18 und eine Bodenwand 19 der Außenumhüllung 11 bestehen aus einander teilweise überdeckenden und miteinander verbundenen Faltlappen. Randseitige Faltstreifen 20, 21 des im wesentlichen rechteckigen Zuschnitts für die Außenumhüllung 11 bilden diese Faltlappen. Das kuvertartige Faltprinzip für Stirnwand 18 und Bodenwand 19 ist bekannt und üblich.An upper end wall 18 and a bottom wall 19 of the outer casing 11 consist of partially overlapping and with each other connected folding flap. Edge folding strips 20, 21 of the substantially rectangular blank for the outer casing 11 form these folding tabs. The envelope-like folding principle for end wall 18 and bottom wall 19 is known and common.

Die so ausgebildete Außenumhüllung 11 umschließt die Verpackung vollständig, allseitig und weitgehend dicht. Zum Öffnen der Außenumhüllung 11 bei Ingebrauchnahme der Zigarettenpackung 10 ist die Außenumhüllung 11 mit einem Aufreißstreifen 22 versehen. Dieser erstreckt sich im oberen Bereich der Zigarettenpackung 10 bzw. der Außenumhüllung 11 ringsherum. Mit einer Griffzunge 23 an einem außenliegenden Ende des Aufreißstreifens 22 kann dieser erfaßt und abgezogen werden. Dabei wird die Folie der Außenumhüllung 11 im Bereich des Aufreißstreifens 22 durchtrennt. Bei ringsherumlaufendem Aufreißstreifen 22 wird so ein oberer Teil der Außenumhüllung 11 abgetrennt. Dieser kann wie eine Kappe von der Verpackung abgenommen werden. Der Aufreißstreifen 22 ist durch Siegeln bzw. durch Kleben mit der Folie der Außenumhüllung 11 verbunden, insbesondere an der Innenseite der Außenumhüllung 11.The outer wrapper 11 thus formed encloses the packaging complete, all-round and largely dense. To open the Outer wrapper 11 when the cigarette pack 10 is put into use the outer casing 11 is provided with a tear strip 22. This extends in the upper area of the cigarette pack 10 or the outer casing 11 all around. With a Handle tongue 23 at an outer end of the tear strip 22 this can be detected and deducted. The slide the outer covering 11 in the region of the tear strip 22 severed. In the case of tear strip 22 running around, it becomes so an upper part of the outer casing 11 is separated. This can be removed from the packaging like a cap. The tear strip 22 is by sealing or by gluing with the film connected to the outer casing 11, in particular on the inside the outer casing 11.

Eine Besonderheit der vorliegenden Zigarettenpackung 10 besteht darin, daß eine bei derartigen und ähnlichen Verpackungen übliche Steuerbanderole 24 an der Außenumhüllung 11 angebracht ist und nicht - wie bisher - an der eigentlichen Verpackung. Die Steuerbanderole 24 ist an der Innenseite der Außenumhüllung 11 befestigt, und zwar derart, daß die Sichtfläche der Steuerbanderole 24, also deren Aufdruck, nach außen gerichtet ist. Die durchsichtige Außenumhüllung 11 macht die Steuerbanderole 24 uneingeschränkt sichtbar.There is a special feature of the present cigarette pack 10 in the fact that it is common in such and similar packaging Tax band 24 is attached to the outer wrapper 11 and not - as before - on the actual packaging. The Tax band 24 is on the inside of the outer wrapper 11 attached, in such a way that the visible surface of the tax band 24, that is, its print is directed outwards. The transparent outer covering 11 makes the control sleeve 24 fully visible.

Die Steuerbanderole 24 kann auf verschiedene Weise an der Außenumhüllung 11 innenseitig befestigt sein. Im vorliegenden Falle sind hierfür (zwei) Leimpunkte 25, 26 vorgesehen. Diese sind mit Abstand voneinander angeordnet. Die Leimpunkte 25, 26 bestehen zweckmäßigerweise aus einem klarsichtigen Leim, der dünn aufgetragen ist und deshalb von außen nicht oder kaum erkennbar ist. Der Aufreißstreifen 22 ist dabei so positioniert, daß er zwischen den beiden Leimpunkten 25, 26 hindurchläuft, so daß die Steuerbanderole 24 zu beiden Seiten des Aufreißstreifens 22 fixiert ist.The control band 24 can be in various ways on the Outer casing 11 to be fastened on the inside. In the present Cases are provided for this (two) glue points 25, 26. This are spaced apart. Glue points 25, 26 expediently consist of a clear glue that is applied thinly and therefore not or hardly recognizable from the outside is. The tear strip 22 is positioned so that it runs between the two glue points 25, 26, so that the control band 24 on both sides of the tear strip 22 is fixed.

Die Steuerbanderole 24 kann jede geeignete geometrische Form aufweisen und auch an unterschiedlichen Stellen der Außenumhüllung 11 angebracht sein. So ist es möglich, bei entsprechender Abmessung und Gestaltung der Steuerbanderole 24 diese im Bereich mehrerer Wandungen der Außenumhüllung 11 anzubringen, also beispielsweise im Bereich der Seitenwand 14 und in Teilbereichen der angrenzenden Vorderwand 12 und/oder Rückwand 13. Die Steuerbanderole 24 kann dabei innerhalb der fertigen Zigarettenpackung 10 U-förmig oder winkelförmig gefaltet sein.The control band 24 can have any suitable geometric shape have and also in different places of the outer casing 11 be attached. So it is possible with appropriate Dimension and design of the tax band 24 this in the area to attach several walls of the outer casing 11, for example in the area of the side wall 14 and in partial areas the adjacent front wall 12 and / or rear wall 13. The control band 24 can be within the finished cigarette pack 10 U-shaped or angularly folded.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist aber hinsichtlich der Anbringung der Steuerbanderole 24 das in den Zeichnungen dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel. Hier erstreckt sich die Steuerbanderole 24 ausschließlich im Bereich der geschlossenen Seitenwand 14. Die rechteckige Steuerbanderole 24 hat eine geringfügig geringere Breite als die Seitenwand 14 und eine deutlich geringere Höhe. But is particularly advantageous with regard to the attachment of the Steuerbanderole 24 the embodiment shown in the drawings. Here the tax band 24 extends exclusively in the area of the closed side wall 14. The rectangular tax band 24 has a slightly smaller one Width than the side wall 14 and a significantly lower height.

Die Steuerbanderole 24 ist im oberen Bereich der Seitenwand 14 angeordnet, bis unterhalb der Stirnwand 18.The control band 24 is in the upper region of the side wall 14 arranged until below the end wall 18th

Besonders wichtig ist das Zusammenwirken der Steuerbanderole 24 mit dem Aufreißstreifen 22. Dieser erstreckt sich im Bereich der Steuerbanderole 24. Dies hat zur Folge, daß beim Öffnen der Außenumhüllung 11 mit Hilfe des Aufreißstreifens 22 die Steuerbanderole 24 von dem Aufreißstreifen 22 durchtrennt wird. Dadurch ist die Steuerbanderole 24 "entwertet". Im vorliegenden Falle ist die Relativstellung von Aufreißstreifen 22 und Steuerbanderole 24 derart, daß letztere etwa mittig quer durch die Fläche der Steuerbanderole 24 hindurchläuft und dadurch diese etwa mittig trennt.The interaction of the tax stamp 24 is particularly important with the tear strip 22. This extends in the area the tax band 24. This has the consequence that when opening the Outer covering 11 with the help of the tear strip 22, the tax stamp 24 is severed by the tear strip 22. Thereby the tax stamp 24 is "canceled". In the present Trap is the relative position of tear strip 22 and tax stamp 24 such that the latter approximately in the middle across the Surface of the tax band 24 passes through it separates approximately in the middle.

Die Steuerbanderole 24 kann in technisch einfacher Weise an der Außenumhüllung 11 angebracht werden. Der Zuschnitt derselben wird von einer fortlaufenden Materialbahn 27, also einer Folienbahn, abgetrennt, so daß Zuschnitte gemäß Fig. 2 entstehen. Auf die Materialbahn 27 wird der Aufreißstreifen 22 positionsgerecht aufgebracht. Der Aufreißstreifen kann durch Siegeln über Heißkleber oder mit Hilfe eines Dauerklebers mit der Materialbahn 27 durchgehend verbunden werden. Die Steuerbanderolen 24 werden ebenfalls positionsgerecht, nämlich unter Berücksichtigung der Trennschnitte zum Herstellen der Zuschnitte gemäß Fig. 2, auf der Materialbahn 27 fixiert. Fig. 3 zeigt die Materialbahn 27 in Vorderansicht, also die bei der Außenumhüllung 11 nach außen weisende Seite. Auf der Rückseite, also innen, werden die Steuerbanderolen 24 angebracht. Der Aufreißstreifen wird danach aufgetragen, derart, daß im Bereich der Steuerbanderole 24 der Aufreißstreifen 22 innenliegt, also die Innenseite der Steuerbanderole überdeckt. Dadurch ist beim Aufreißvorgang das Durchtrennen der Steuerbanderole 24 gewährleistet.The control band 24 can in a technically simple manner on the Outer casing 11 are attached. The cutting of the same is from a continuous material web 27, i.e. a film web, separated so that blanks according to FIG. 2 arise.
