[0001] The subject of this invention is the collapsible packaging.
[0002] In particular, the collapsible packaging is intended for food product storage, in
liquid as well as in solid (e.g. loose) form.
[0003] There are many various types of packaging in the form of containers intended for
products storage e.g. foodstuff dedicated for individual households. Such containers
enable easy access to commodities in shops, where they can be found in the form that
is convenient for purchasers, without the necessity of additional actions, such as
weighing.
[0004] Such packaging is made, for instance, of multilayer material that may contain paper
cardboard, aluminium foil and plastic foil, which form together a sheet of composite
material. It can be also a single-layer material, such as cardboard or plastic foil.
Within the space of many years, as this type of packaging has been used, the material
composition has been altered several times, but the rule of its multilayeredness has
remained unchanged. Such a sheet is bent along the bending lines and next is welded,
which forms the finished package.
[0005] Certain information on cardboard packaging in the form of a collapsible container
can be found in the Patent Document
US 3366308, which makes the closest state of the art for the present application. The container
is made of one sheet of multilayer paper-based material. The finished container has
two opposite main walls joined to side walls in such a way that they form the main
body of the section that is, in principle, rectangular, and the main walls and side
walls run vertically in the container in its basic position. The container has the
base perpendicular to the main walls, and, on the side of the main body that is opposite
the base, it has the triangular roof.
[0006] The main body of the container is made through gluing the sheet of material on its
folds, which are to be found on the outer edges of the sheet, after its bending according
to the intended bending lines.
[0007] In order to achieve that, the sheet of multilayer material is marked with the appropriate
sheet bending lines. In this solution of the state of the art there are four vertical
bending lines running vertically along the main walls, two main horizontal bending
lines running across the main walls and side walls in such a way that they run at
the point where the roof of the container begins, and at the point where the base
of the container begins.
[0008] Between the two main horizontal bending lines the sheet of multilayer material is
marked with the horizontal base bending line. The sheet, from which the container
is formed, is also marked with the horizontal roof bending line, which closes the
container from the top, and with the two vertical side-wall bending lines running
along the side walls in their axis of symmetry. The vertical side-wall bending lines
run along the side walls in their axis of symmetry from the horizontal base bending
line to the horizontal roof bending line.
[0009] On the diagonal of the rectangles formed by the main vertical bending lines, the
main horizontal bending line from the roof of the packaging and the vertical side-wall
bending line, there are diagonal roof bending lines, which are inward bending lines
of the collapsible packaging so that they meet at the top of the roof of the packaging.
[0010] The packaging, according to this Patent Document, has diagonal base bending lines
running along the diagonal of the rectangles formed by the main vertical bending lines,
the main horizontal bending line from the base of the packaging and the axis made
by the main vertical side-wall bending line, so that they meet at the main vertical
bending line of the packaging from the base, at the mid-point of the base of the packaging
and on the main horizontal bending line from the base.
[0011] The solution described above, according to
US 3366308, is opened through rending a piece of the roof so that it makes an opening that allows
to empty the container.
[0012] As the container has been emptied completely, it is possible to be fold up through
its side walls being bent towards the middle of the container, and its base being
unfolded only onto one of the side walls along the base bending lines. Until the container
has been folded by using force, its section remains unchanged.
[0013] As soon as the container has been opened, it becomes unsealed and the air flows inside,
which may affect the quality on the contents of the packaging.
[0014] A cardboard packaging in the form of a collapsible container is known from the description
of
WO 2005102848. The container is made of one sheet of multilayer paper-based material. The finished
container may have two opposite main walls joined to side walls in such a way that
it forms the main body of the section that is, in principle, rectangular, and the
main walls and side walls run vertically in the container in its basic position. The
container has the base perpendicular to the main walls, and, on the side of the main
body that is opposite the base, it has the roof which is triangular in the axial section.
The sheet, from which the container is made, according to this application, is marked
with the bending lines that are similar to those indicated in the description
US 3366308; however, the system of bending lines being marked onto the sheet allows the side
walls of the packaging to be bent only outwards and that comes after the container
has been completely emptied. Folding the emptied container is aimed at reducing its
volume for the purposes of storage or transporting the waste that is intended to be
recycled.
[0015] A packaging made from a sheet of cardboard, and intended for middle- and high-volumed
solid articles is known from Patent Document
US 4094458. The packaging has two pairs of opposite walls and one of the pairs is marked with
bending lines that run along the vertical axis of the packaging and allow folding
up the container through bending down the walls towards the inside of the container.
The packaging has the closing top and the closing bottom, which are flat. When the
container is unfolded, it has a shape of a cuboid. In order to store the container,
its side walls are folded inwards after its top and bottom have been opened.
[0016] A packaging for liquid articles is known from the Patent Document
PL 198329. The packaging contains a collapsible sachet with at least two flexible parts that
are mutually connected on the edges of the inward area, which remains non-connected,
and that are separated from each other in the part of the rim in the edge area, which
makes an opening leading to the inward area limited by flexible parts in their inward
area. The packaging is equipped with the dosing device, which has the empty base tightly
attached to the flexible parts along the opening; it has the lip sticking out from
the base and finished with the tip with the exhaust outlet, and it also has the outlet
duct stretching from the inward area of the packaging, through the base and the lip,
to the exhaust outlet. The empty base has two opposite walls that include part of
the outlet duct having been formed by them; the walls end at the proper edge ends,
at which they meet and where each wall outlines the outward surface part tightly attached
to one of the flexible parts along the sachet opening.
[0017] Across the outlet duct, the packaging has the resilient valve that is fastened tightly
and has the self-sealing gap, which opens in response to the pressure increased in
comparison with the outer pressure, and can be found on the side of the valve that
faces inwards so that it allows the flow.
[0018] A packaging for liquid articles, which, in section, has oval shape similar to the
shape of a bottle with discharge neck and has the non-return valve in the discharge
neck, is known from the Patent Document
US 6578740. The packaging keeps the position upright and secures the inside of the packaging
against the air flow. As the packaging is made of plastic, it also, to some degree,
secures the contents against damages in case of a fall.
[0019] The types of packaging already known either do not provide suitable protection against
the air flowing inside, which can significantly precipitate the process of perishing
of the contents, or do not provide good conditions for recycling of packaging waste.
[0020] Those problems have been solved by the present collapsible packaging, according to
the invention.
[0021] According to the invention, the rectangular-based collapsible packaging is made from
one sheet of material that is bent and joint at several points through folds placed
on at least three edges of the sheet of material. The collapsible packaging has two
main walls and two side walls joined to the main walls in such a way that they form
the main body of the collapsible packaging that is, in principle, rectangular in section
and matches the shape of the base. The main walls and the side walls are joined to
the bottom that constitutes the base, as well as with the upper part that constitutes
the roof, which is triangular in axial section through the side walls. The sheet of
material is a flat template, with its height running along the main walls and its
width running across the main walls, and has the following:
- four main vertical bending lines, which run vertically along the main walls and the
side walls of the collapsible packaging;
- two main horizontal bending lines, which run across the main walls and the side walls
in such a way that the first main horizontal bending line runs through the point where
the roof of the collapsible packaging begins and the second main horizontal bending
line runs through the point where the base of the collapsible packaging begins;
- the horizontal base bending line passing between the main horizontal bending lines
from the longitudinal axis of the first side wall to the longitudinal axis of the
second side wall;
- the horizontal roof bending line closing the roof from the top of the collapsible
packaging;
- two vertical side-wall bending lines running vertically along the axis of symmetry
of the side walls from the horizontal base bending line to the horizontal roof bending
line;
- diagonal roof bending lines, which are the collapsible bending lines of the packaging
inward and run along the diagonal of the rectangles formed by the main vertical bending
lines, the main horizontal bending line from the roof of the collapsible packaging,
the horizontal roof bending line and the vertical side-wall bending lines in such
a way that they meet at the top of the roof of the collapsible packaging;
- diagonal base bending lines running along the diagonal of the rectangles formed by
the main vertical bending lines, the main horizontal bending line from the base of
the collapsible packaging, the straight line, on which the horizontal base bending
line is situated, the line going through the centre of the bottom and the axis made
by the vertical side-wall bending lines, in such a way that they meet at the intersection
of the main vertical bending lines of the collapsible packaging and the main horizontal
bending line from the base, and on the axes made by the vertical side-wall bending
lines.
[0022] The collapsible packaging is characterized by the fact that the vertical side-wall
bending lines run throughout the whole height of the sheet of the collapsible packaging,
and the horizontal base bending line run throughout the whole width of the sheet of
the collapsible packaging, and the sheet of material has the bottom bending line,
which is the inward bending line of the collapsible packaging, made at the junction
of the fold from the base of the collapsible packaging and the extensions of the main
walls and the side walls.
[0023] It is favourable when the horizontal base bending line is divided into: the first
horizontal base bending line running across the first main wall, the second horizontal
base bending line running across the first side wall, the third horizontal base bending
line running across the second main wall, and the fourth horizontal base bending line
running across the second side wall; and the vertical side-wall bending lines between
the horizontal roof bending line and the horizontal base bending line are the inward
bending lines of the collapsible packaging; and, between the horizontal base bending
line and the main horizontal bending line from the base, are the outward bending lines
of the collapsible packaging; and, between the main horizontal bending line from the
base and the horizontal bottom bending line, are the inward bending lines of the packaging;
and the first horizontal base bending line and the third horizontal base bending line,
both running along the main walls of the collapsible packaging, are the inward bending
lines of the collapsible packaging; and the second horizontal base bending line and
the fourth horizontal base bending line, both running along the packaging's side walls,
are the outward bending lines of the collapsible packaging.
[0024] It is also favourable when in the sheet of the collapsible packaging, in the base,
along the extensions of the side walls, one can find recesses running, in principle,
along the main vertical bending lines as well as along the diagonal base bending lines
from the outward of the template of the collapsible packaging.
[0025] It is favourable, too, when in the sheet, in one of the walls of the roof of the
packaging, one can find the opening, in which the outlet pipe is planted in the collapsible
packaging.
[0026] It is favourable, too, when the outlet pipe is supplied with the cap.
[0027] It is favourable when the outlet pipe is supplied with the non-return valve.
[0028] It is also favourable when the non-return valve, with which the outlet pipe is supplied,
is placed in the cap.
[0029] It is favourable when the outlet pipe's cap is supplied with the closure top.
[0030] It is also favourable when the non-return valve planted in the outlet pipe, in one
of the walls of the roof of collapsible packaging, is a plate valve.
[0031] It is also favourable when the non-return valve is supplied with the plate flap,
which, in the closed position of the valve, leans on the protrusions in the outlet
pipe.
[0032] It is favourable, too, when the non-return valve is supplied with the lip flap, which,
in the closed position of the valve, leans on the inside walls of the outlet pipe.
[0033] The subject of the invention has been illustrated in the execution examples, where
Fig. 1 shows the template of the sheet of material of which the collapsible packaging
is made; Fig. 2 shows the template of the sheet of material of which the collapsible
packaging is made with the recesses_formed therein; Fig. 3 shows the collapsible packaging

outlet pipe; and Fig.11 shows the details of the outlet pipe of the collapsible packaging
with the non-return valve placed in the top supplied with the crown cap, in the section
through the outlet pipe in compressed position with the non-return valve being open.
[0034] The collapsible packaging 1 for foodstuff, but not only, particularly in a liquid
or semi-liquid state, but not limited to, has the rectangular base 5, from which the
two parallel main walls 2a, 2b diverge. The edges of the main walls 2a, 2b are joined
to the edges of the side walls 3a, 3b, which are opposed to each other; that forms
the section of the collapsible packaging 1 that is basically rectangular in filled
state.
[0035] As shown in this embodiment, of the collapsible packaging 1, the-section of the collapsible
packaging 1 is a square. The main walls 2a, 2b of the collapsible packaging 1 in the
upper part evolve into the roof 4, which is triangular in the longitudinal section
through the main wall 2a, 2b. The side walls 3a, 3b in the upper part evolve into
the roof 4 of the collapsible packaging 1. The roof 4 of the collapsible packaging
1 is closed with the folds 6. which are the extensions of the main walls 2a and 2b.
[0036] The collapsible packaging 1 presented above is shown in the execution example in
Fig. 3, where both the main wall 2a and the side wall 3a can be found. In Fig. 3 one
can also see the roof 4 closing the collapsible packaging 1 from the upper part and
coming from the main walls 2a and 2b on their extension, and joined at the top with
the folds 6, and Fig. 3 fully depicts only this part of the roof 4 that comes from
the main wall 2a and, partly, the roof 4 side wall coming from the side wall 3a of
the collapsible packaging 1.
[0037] Fig. 4 presents the collapsible packaging 1 in another perspective, showing the walls
of the collapsible packaging 1 which are opposite to those shown in Fig. 3, i.e. both
the main wall 2a and the side wall 3b can be seen. One can also see the base 5 of
the collapsible packaging 1, which is its bottom.
[0038] As shown in Fig. 4, the collapsible packaging 1, on one of the sides of the roof
4, can be supplied with the outlet pipe 71, closed with the cap 8.
[0039] The collapsible packaging 1 shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 is made of one sheet of material
which, in this case, is a composite material containing a layer of cardboard, plastic
and aluminium foil. Obviously, the collapsible packaging 1, according to the invention,
can be made of any material, both single-layer and multi-layer, and the used material
may be e.g. only cardboard or cardboard combined with plastic foil. And the choice
of material sheet 10, of which the collapsible packaging 1 is made, is irrelevant
from the point of view of the present invention. It is important, however, that the
material of which the sheet 10 used for the collapsible packaging 1 is made, shall
be possible to bend along the intended bending lines, both inwards and outwards the
packaging. The term 'inwards' the collapsible packaging means in this case such bending
that in the finished collapsible packaging 1 on the bending line results in convex
surface relative to the inside of the packaging 1 from the product placed therein.
The term 'outwards' the collapsible packaging 1 means in this case such bending that
in the finished collapsible packaging 1 on the bending line results in concave surface
relative to the inside of the collapsible packaging 1 from the product placed therein.
[0040] The sheet material 10 from which the collapsible packaging 1 is made is shown in
an embodiment in Fig. 1, which shows actual or theoretical bending lines of the same
sheet 10 to form the collapsible packaging 1 as well as for its subsequent use.
[0041] As shown in Fig. 1, the sheet material 10 is a flat template, with its height running
along the main walls 2a and 2b of the collapsible packaging 1, and its width running
across the main walls 2a and 2b of the collapsible packaging 1, and has the following:
- four main vertical bending lines 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d;
- two main horizontal bending lines 12a, 12b;
- horizontal base bending line 13;
- horizontal roof bending line 14;
- two vertical side-wall bending lines 15a, 15b;
- diagonal roof bending lines 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d;
- diagonal base bending lines 17a, 17b, 17c,17d, 17e, 17f, 17g, 17h,
- bottom bending line 18
[0042] The four main vertical bending lines 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d run vertically along the
main walls 2a and 2b and the side walls 3a and 3b of the collapsible packaging 1.
[0043] The two main horizontal bending lines 12a and 12b run across the main walls 2a and
2b and the side walls 3a and 3b of the collapsible packaging 1.
[0044] The horizontal roof bending line 14 closes the roof 4 from the upper part of the
collapsible packaging 1.
[0045] The two vertical side-wall bending lines 15a, 15b run throughout the whole height
of the template 10 of the collapsible packaging 1, and the horizontal base bending
line 13 run throughout the whole width of the sheet 10 of the collapsible packaging
1. The sheet material 10 has the bottom bending line 18, which is the inward bending
line of the collapsible packaging 1, made at the junction of the fold 6 from the bottom
5 of the collapsible packaging 1 and the extensions of the main walls 2a, 2b and the
side walls 3a, 3b.
[0046] The diagonal roof bending lines 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, which are the inward bending
lines of the collapsible packaging 1, run along the diagonal of the rectangles formed
by the main vertical bending lines 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d, the main horizontal bending
line 12 from the roof 4 of the collapsible packaging 1, the vertical side-wall bending
lines 15a, 15b and the horizontal roof bending line 14.
[0047] In the collapsible packaging 1 on the material sheet 10 the horizontal base bending
line 13 is divided into: the first horizontal base bending line 13a, the second horizontal
base bending line 13b, the third horizontal base bending line 13c, and the fourth
horizontal base bending line 13d.
[0048] The first horizontal base bending line 13a run across the first main wall 2a, the
second horizontal base bending line 13b run across the first side wall 3a, the third
horizontal base bending line 13c run across the second main wall 2b, and the fourth
horizontal base bending line 13d run across the second side wall 3b.
[0049] The vertical side-wall bending lines 15a, 15b between the horizontal roof bending
line 14 and the horizontal base bending line 13 are the inward bending lines of the
collapsible packaging 1; and between the horizontal base bending line 13 and the main
horizontal bending line 12b from the base 5 are the outward bending lines of the collapsible
packaging 1; and between the main horizontal bending line 12b from the base 5 and
the horizontal bottom bending line 18 are the inward bending lines of the collapsible
packaging 1. The first horizontal base bending line 13a and the third horizontal base
bending line 13c, both running along the main walls 2a, 2b of the collapsible packaging
1, are the inward bending lines of the collapsible packaging 1; and the second horizontal
base bending line 13b and the fourth horizontal base bending line 13d, both running
along the side walls 3a, 3b of the collapsible packaging 1, are the outward bending
lines of the collapsible packaging 1. The vertical bending side-wall bending lines
15a, 15b, between the main horizontal bending line 12b from the base 5 and the horizontal
bottom bending line 18 are the inward bending lines of the collapsible packaging 1.
[0050] As shown in Fig. 1, the diagonal base bending lines 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d, 17e, 17f,
17g, 17h running along the diagonal of the rectangles formed by the main vertical
bending lines 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d, the main horizontal bending line 12a from the base
5 of the collapsible packaging 1, the straight line, on which the horizontal base
bending line 13 is situated, the edge of the sheet 10 from the base 5 and the axis
made by the vertical side-wall bending lines 15a, 15b in such a way that they meet
at the intersection of the main vertical bending lines 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d of the collapsible
packaging 1 and the main horizontal bending line 12b from the base 5, and on the axes
made by the vertical side-wall bending lines 15a, 15b.
[0051] The bending lines shown in Fig. 1 are the basis to make the collapsible packaging
1 according to the principles of the invention; however, some modifications to the
template of the sheet 10 itself are possible without departure from the essence of
the invention. And, as shown in Fig. 2, in the sheet 10 one can make the recesses
that run, in principle, in the base 5 on the extensions of the side walls 3a, 3b and
basically run along the main vertical bending lines 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d and along the
diagonal bottom bending lines 17a, 17b, 17e, 17f from the outside of the sheet 10
of the collapsible packaging 1. Implementation of the above-mentioned recesses involves
removing the unnecessary portions of the material, and as a result, on the junction
areas of the collapsible packaging 1 one can find a smaller number of layers of combined
material that are overlapping, which is advantageous for use the collapsible packaging
1.
[0052] The collapsible packaging 1 is formed from a sheet of material 10 during a more or
less complex process of bending the sheet 10 and its joint, but the process is not
the subject of the invention.
[0053] In Fig.3, Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, which shows the collapsible packaging 1 in several views,
one can see the above-mentioned bending lines. Fig. 3 shows the collapsible packaging
1 from the side perspective view and shows the first main wall 2a and the first side
wall 3a. Both walls are joined by the edge, which is the first main vertical bending
line 11a. This first main vertical bending line 12a run along the main wall 2a and
the side wall 3a, the latter being connected with the former, also in the section
where the main wall 2a and the side wall 3a evolve into the section that constitutes
the base 5. The other main vertical bending lines: the second 12b, the third 12c and
the fourth 12d run, analogically, relative to the associated walls. Fig. 4 shows the
collapsible packaging 1 in the perspective view from the side and from below, and
shows the second main wall 2b and the second side wall 3b as well as the roof 4 from
the side that does not have the opening 7. The side wall 3b and the main wall 2b are
joined with the edge, which constitutes the third main vertical bending line 11c.
[0054] In the embodiment shown in Fig. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 the collapsible packaging
is provided with the outlet pipe 71, which is located at the point where the opening
7 is made in the sheet 10. The outlet pipe 71 is provided with the non-return valve
9 being the one-way valve and enabling the contents of the collapsible packaging 1
escape to the outside under the influence of an external force applied to the collapsible
packaging 1, and in particular to its main walls 2a and 2b. However, after removal
of the external forces the non-return valve 9 prevents the air from coming inside
the collapsible packaging 1 and the collapsible packaging 1 remains in the compressed
position. This position is all the more compressed the less the content remains in
the collapsible packaging 1.
[0055] In the extreme case, when the collapsible packaging 1 is completely or almost completely
empty of contents, the main walls 2a and 2b are adjacent to each other, through side
walls 3a and 3b, with the surfaces located inside the collapsible packaging 1.
[0056] The base 5 together with the extensions of the main walls 2a and 2b provides a stable
support for the collapsible packaging 1 to facilitate its storage in vertical position.
As the collapsible packaging 1 becomes empty, the base 5 is transformed into a bipod,
which as a stable support eases the use of the collapsible packaging 1.
[0057] The non-return valves 9 used in the collapsible packaging 1 may have, of course,
various design, and only by way of example preferred embodiments of this aspect of
the invention have been shown here.
[0058] As shown in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, it is possible to place the non-return valve 9 of
the flap type in the outlet pipe 71 embedded in the sheet 10, in the opening 7 of
the collapsible packaging 1. The flap or flaps of the non-return valve 9 remain in
the closed position, if inside the collapsible packaging 1 the pressure is not greater
than or close to the external pressure. In this situation, the interior of the collapsible
packaging 1 contains only the stored product without the air content of the atmosphere.
Exerting pressure on the main walls 2a and 2b of the collapsible packaging 1, preferably
combined with tilting of the collapsible packaging, causes deflection of the flaps
of the non-return valves 9 and the release of the contents.
[0059] The non-return valve 9 may be provided with a plate flap or flaps 91, which in the
closed position, lean against the protrusions 92 disposed in the outlet pipe 71. The
interaction between the plate flaps 91 and the protrusions 92 ensure a tight seal
of the non-return valve 9.
[0060] The non-return valve 9 may be provided with a lip flap or flaps 93, which in the
closed position lean against the inner wall of the outlet pipe 71.The interaction
between the lip flaps 91 and the wall of the outlet pipe 71 provides a tight seal
of the non-return valve 9.
[0061] A very important feature of the submitted solution of the collapsible packaging 1
according to the invention, is to protect the interior against air, which contributes
to multiplying extension of the expiry date of the products contained in the collapsible
packaging 1 after opening.
[0062] Another, not less important feature of the submitted solution of the collapsible
packaging 1 according to the invention is to reduce the volume of the collapsible
packaging to the state when the collapsible packaging becomes flat after completely
emptying the contents and it remains in this position. Such a reduction in the volume
of the collapsible packaging 1 radically reduces the problems with the utilization
or transferring to recycle the collapsible packaging 1, when its contents have been
used.

is bent and joint at several points through folds placed on at least three edges of
the sheet of material, and the collapsible packaging has two main walls and two side
walls joined to the main walls in such a way that they form the main body of the collapsible
packaging that is, in principle, rectangular in section and matches the shape of the
base; and the main walls and the side walls are joined to the bottom that constitutes
the base, as well as with the upper part that constitutes the roof, which is triangular
in axial section through the side walls. and the sheet of material is a flat template,
with its height running along the main walls and its width running across the main
walls, and has the following:
- four main vertical bending lines, which run vertically along the main walls and
the side walls of the collapsible packaging;
- two main horizontal bending lines, which run across the main walls and the side
walls of the collapsible packaging in such a way that the first main horizontal bending
line runs through the point where the roof of the collapsible packaging begins and

- two vertical side-wall bending lines running vertically along the axis of symmetry
of the side walls from the horizontal base bending line to the horizontal roof bending
line;
- diagonal roof bending lines, which are the inward bending lines of the collapsible
packaging and run along the diagonal of the rectangles formed by the main vertical
bending lines, the main horizontal bending line from the roof of the collapsible packaging,
