Patent number: 7578426Abstract: A folded box has side walls and a base unit and/or a lid unit. At least one of the side walls has a convex curvature when the folded box is folded up. At least one supporting unit is connected to the inner wall of the convexly curved side wall and has a first adhesive tab and a second adhesive tab, which are connected to the inner wall and which are arranged spaced apart from each other in the direction of the curvature. Between the first and second adhesive tab there is a supporting tab, which is connected to the first and the second adhesive tab via a first and a second supporting tab fold, respectively. The length of the supporting tab corresponds to the distance between the first and the second adhesive tab. When the box is folded up, the supporting tab can be folded into the interior of the folded box or, folded up automatically into the interior of the folded box.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2004Date of Patent: August 25, 2009Assignee: CD Cartondruck AGInventors: Lucien Wende, Ralf Kenner

Patent number: 6955290Abstract: A folding box (10) has a polygonal outer contour unit (12), which is closed in cross section and has outer wall elements (30.1, 30.2, 30.3, 30.4) connected via outer-contour folding lines (32), a lid unit (18), a base unit (20), and a reclosable removal opening (80). The box includes a bottom inner contour unit (14), regions of which are polygonal in cross section and which has bottom inner wall elements (40.1, 40.2, 40.3) connected via bottom inner-contour folding lines (42.1, 42.2). The bottom inner contour unit is present in a folded state in the interior of the outer contour unit (12) and is connected to the outer contour unit (12) via a connecting folding line (28). The box further has a polygonal top inner contour unit (16) which is closed in cross section, has a removal opening (80) and top inner wall elements (50.1, 50.2, 50.3, 50.4) connected via top inner-contour folding lines (52.1, 52.2, 52.3).Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2003Date of Patent: October 18, 2005Assignee: CD Cartondruck AGInventor: Lucien Wende
