ABSTRACT:
An apparatus (10) for holding a collecting container (20) of low stiffness for collecting and packaging re-usable packages for filter tow, has erectable side parts (1) to (6), fastening strips (30) connected with the side parts (1 to 6) for fastening the collecting container (20) on the erected side parts (1 to 6); the side parts (1, 2, 6; 3, 4, 5) are divided into two groups (A) and (B) with the side parts (1, 2, 6) and (3, 4, 5) in each of the groups (A),(B) connected so as to be hinged, and the side parts (1, 2, 6) and (3, 4, 5) in the groups (A),(B) are connected so as to be hinged. The side parts (2, 3) and (5, 6) of the groups (A),(B) are foldable toward the outside away from the collecting container (20) so that the collecting container (20) can be removed from the apparatus (10) laterally or at the front face. The erectable side parts (1 to 6), after they are erected outside of the collecting container (20) delimit a space for accommodating the collecting container (20) and encompass the collecting container (20) or, after they are erected within the collecting container (20), are disposed so that they delimit the maximum amount of space within the collecting container (20) and are encompassed by the collecting container (20). The method is also described.
