DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
PRIOR ART
The invention is based on a package for spark plugs or defined hereinafter. Packagings of this kind are mainly used for packaging of ampoules, bottles or the like containing pharmaceutical products. It suggests itself also to use such packagings for other objects such as spark plugs. It is a disadvantage of the packaging disclosed for example in DE-GM 90 17 110.1 that it has a low degree of stability as a result of the single-layer structure between the two hollow walls so that it is preferably used as an insert in a folding cardboard box and therefore does not permit the type and number of packaged objects to be seen. As a result, it is necessary to open the packaging to check whether its contents are complete. Furthermore, sufficient protection against theft is not provided since individual objects can easily be removed from such a package.
ADVANTAGES OF THE INVENTION
The packaging according to the invention has, in contrast with the above, an advantage that as a result of an intermediate element which is arranged between the hollow walls and is connected integrally thereto, only one side of the packaging material blank can be viewed from the outside so that a cardboard box which is painted on one side can be used for the packaging material blank. In addition, the stability of the packaging is increased by the intermediate element.
By virtue of the developments disclosed hereinafter, improvements in the packaging disclosed are possible. By virtue of the features set forth, a defined seat and a selective guidance of the spark plugs in the packaging is achieved, which ensures definite positional securing. By virtue of one embodiment set forth herein use as a suspended display packaging is possible. In particular, the stability of the packaging is increased by the use of tabs. Particular protection against theft is ensured by use of a cover connected to the tabs. By virtue of this design, it is only possible to remove spark plugs from the packaging by obviously damaging it. After removing tear tabs which are bounded by perforations, spark plugs can be easily removed from the packaging.
DRAWING
Exemplary embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawing and explained in greater detail in the subsequent description. FIG. 1 shows a plan view of a packaging blank for packaging four spark plugs; FIG. 2 shows a diagrammatic view of the folded and bonded packaging material blank from FIG. 1, FIG. 3 shows a cross-section of the packaging with spark plugs in the plane along lines III--III from FIG. 2; FIG. 4 shows a diagrammatic view of a cover serving as a protection against theft; FIG. 5 shows a diagrammatic view of a sleeve serving as protection against theft; and FIG. 6 shows a diagrammatic view of a packaging, provided with a cover or a sleeve, for four spark plugs.
DESCRIPTION OF THE EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENT
A packaging material blank 10 (FIG. 1) consists of an elongated, essentially rectangular cardboard form which is painted and printed on one side. This packaging material blank 10 is divided up, by folding over along a transversely extending folding line 11, into a section which serves as a rear wall 12 and into a front wall 13 so that the painted and printed side of the cardboard box always points outwards. Two side tabs 14 are formed laterally on the rear wall 12. The front wall 13 is divided up into sections by a plurality of transversely extending folding lines 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22, which sections are folded as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 to form two spaced hollow wall portions 24 and 25. One hollow wall portion 24 which adjoins the folding line 11 has two walls 26 and 27 which project perpendicularly from the rear wall 12 and one wall 28 which is parallel thereto. The wall 27 is connected to the rear wall at folding line 18. The second hollow wall portion 25 is integrally connected to the first hollow wall portion 24 at the folding lines 18 and 19 by means of an intermediate section 30. The said second hollow wall portion 25 has two walls 31 and 32 which extend oblique
