Description:
BLANK CONFIGURED TO BE ERECTED INTO A BOX, AND A BOX FORMED OF SUCH BLANK Field of the invention The invention relates to a blank configured to be erected into a box. The invention also relates to a box formed of such a blank. Background art When designing a box, it is often desirous to take into account a number of different design criteria. The box should e.g. often be designed such that it makes efficient use of the material, is easy to transport to the point of use, is easy to prepare for use, and provides a strong structure. It is often desirable that it is strong during handling and stable in the erected state. Moreover, it should often be capable of being erected into a box without the use of any adhesive or similar means of keeping the erected, or at least with a minimum use of such adhesive of similar means. When designing a box, it is often desirous that the box may be locked in a simple manner in an erected state. When designing boxes, it is typically desirous to consider other aspects as well, such as that it should be stable to stack on top of other boxes and that is should be easy to carry. Boxes made from cardboard are beneficial since they do not take up much space before they are erected, during for example transport. There exist numerous attempts to address the above design criteria in connection to designing a box of cardboard material. US2005023161 A1 for instance discloses a box which comprises a bottom plate, two side rectangular bodies fixedly connected to two sides of the bottom panel and a lower side plates fixedly connected to the lower side of the bottom plate. The document further discloses how strength is achieved by having panels being “coiled”. Thus, it is e.g. disclosed that the two rectangular bodies of the box comprise an outer side piece, an upper side piece, an inner side piece and a lower side piece connected in sequence, such that the outer side piece is connected to the bottom plate. GB1210753 for instance discloses a box wherein a side wall of the box comprises auxiliary flaps which may be folded over the side wall. The document further discloses that cut-out portions of hand holes may be released towards the auxiliary flaps to lock the auxiliary flaps. However, it may be noted that the prior art documents do not adequately address the set of design criteria that the box should make efficient use of the material, be easy to erect and be locked in a simple manner in the erected state. The prior art document do neither adequately address the set of design criteria that the box should provide a strong structure, while being capable of being erected into a box without the use of any adhesive or any similar means of keeping the box erected and/or closed, or at least minimum use of such adhesive or similar means, while also being stable to stack and easy to carry. Summary of the invention It is an object of the invention to provide a box concept which addresses at least some of the design criteria described above, namely that the box should make efficient use of the material, be easy to erect, be locked in a simple manner in the erected state. Provide a strong structure and provide a box that may be erected into a box without the use of any adhesive or any similar means of keeping the box erected and/or closed, or at least minimum use of such adhesive or similar means, while also being stable to stack and easy to carry. This object has been achieved by a blank configured to be erected into a box. The blank comprising a first end wall panel, a first side wall panel, a second end wall panel and a second side wall panel, and a first end top panel and a first support panel being foldably connected one after the other to the first end wall panel as seen along a longitudinal direction of the blank, and a first bottom panel foldably connected to the first end wall panel, the first side wall panel, the second end wall panel, or the second side wall panel, wherein the first end wall panel is configured to form a first end wall of the box, wherein the first end top panel is configured to be folded in a first folding direction relative to the first end wall panel such that the first end top panel extends inwardly from the first end wall panel and forms a first top surface of the box, wherein the first support panel is configured to be folded relative to the first end top panel along the first folding direction such that the first support panel extends in an inclined direction downwardly and outwardly and into contact with an inside surface of the first end wall panel such that an upper portion of the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel form a triangle when the blank is erected into the box, and wherein the first end wall panel further comprises a cut-out and a cut- out locking flap being formed by the cut-out and being foldably connected to the first end wall panel, wherein the cut-out locking flap is configured to be folded in a second folding direction, opposite the first folding direction, inwardly and upwardly into contact with the first support panel, wherein the cut-out is positioned in a portion of the first end wall panel being at a height being beneath the height of the contact between the first support panel and the inside surface of the first end wall panel when the blank has been erected into the box. With the disclosed design, it is made possible to provide one blank comprising all the above-mentioned components, whereby the provision of a box which makes efficient use of the material and at the same time is easy to erect is facilitated. It is preferred that the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel extend along a single, common plane, as seen in a flat-laid state of the blank. In a preferred embodiment, wherein the blank is erected to form the box, the first end top panel is at a right angle to the upper portion of the first end wall panel. Put differently, in a preferred embodiment, the triangle formed by the upper portion of the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel may be a right-angled triangle. With a triangle, and especially with a right-angled triangle, a more stable and strong structure is achieved. Further, by forming the triangle from the upper portion of the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel provides for that the structure is kept in place when the blank is erected to form the box. The disclosed design also provides for that the stiffness of the first end wall is improved. It may be noted that the first end top panel forms a first top surface which only covers a fraction of the geometrical top surface of the box. Thus, the box may be a so-called open top box or be closed by a lid. The first top surface may e.g. be used as a support surface when another box is stacked on top of the box according to the invention. With the disclosed design, where one blank comprises all the above discussed components, the provision of a box which makes efficient use of the material and at the same time is easy to erect is facilitated. It is preferred that the first end wall panel, the first side wall panel, the second end wall panel and the second side wall panel extend along a single, common plane, as seen in a flat-laid state of the blank. Since the cut-out is positioned in a portion of the first end wall panel being at a height being beneath the height of the contact between the first support panel and the inside surface of the first end wall panel when the blank has been erected into the box in combination with the fact that the cut-out locking flap being formed by the cut- out and being foldably connected to the first end wall panel is configured to be folded in a second folding direction, opposite the first folding direction, inwardly and upwardly into contact with the first support panel, a strong structure is achieved. By folding the cut-out locking flap inwardly and upwardly such that the cut-out locking flap is in contact with the first support panel provides for that the triangle formed by the upper portion of the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel being kept in place. Thus, the cut-out locking flap aids in keeping the triangle in the intended shape which provides for a high compressive strength. By having a structure with high compressive strength provides for strong and stable structure when the blank is erected to form the box. Further, with the disclosed design, wherein the triangle and the cut-out locking flap are collaborating in order to keep the structure in place, it facilitates provision of a structure which is capable of being handled without too easily being unfolded unintentionally. The length of the first end top panel, the length of the first support panel, and the length of the cut-out locking flap in combination with the height of the position of the fold line between the cut-out locking flap and the remaining portions of the first end wall panel are chosen such that the first support panel will come into contact with the inside surface of the first end wall panel at a position at a height located between on one hand the fold line between the first end wall panel and the first end top panel and on the other hand the fold line between the cut-out locking flap and the remaining portions of the first end wall panel. They are preferably also chosen such that the cut- out locking flap will come into contact with a first major surface of the part of the blank forming the first support panel which first major surface of the blank on the part forming first end wall panel forms an outside surface of the box. It may be noted that the first major surface which forms an outside surface on the part forming first end wall panel will along the extension of the first support panel face downwardly and inwardly into the box. This may alternatively be expressed as that the upper portion of the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel form a triangle and that the cut-out locking flap comes into contact with the first support panel on a surface of the first support panel facing away from the triangle. The cut-out locking flap is preferably connected to remaining portions of the first end wall panel about a fold line extending along an upper side of the cut-out such that the cut-out locking flap when folded in the second folding direction inwardly and upwardly leaves the cut-out open to act as a handle and extends from an upper side of the cut-out upwardly into contact with the first support panel. Thereby a force may be transmitted along a straight line from the first support panel, via the cut-out locking flap and via the fold line to the remaining portions of the end wall panel. The fold line is preferably a transversely extending fold line. The cut-out comprised in the first end wall panel may be used as a handle and thereby makes it easy to carry the box formed from the blank. Thus, there is provided a blank for a box having an integrated handle such that the box may be easy to carry when the box is in the erected state. The triangle and the cut-out may together form the handle of the box such that the box may not only be easy to carry but also comfortable to carry. Thus, there may be none, or a small amount, of sharp edges which may cut into the hand while carrying the box. It may especially be noted that the upper edge of the handle inside the cut-out is formed by the fold between the first end wall panel and the cut-out locking flap. When carrying the box, there are loads applied to the box, but with the disclosed design, wherein an improved stiffness is achieved, a stronger and more stable structure may be achieved as well. It may especially be noted that the fact that the cut-out locking flap on one hand forms part of the handle and on the other hand forms part in locking the triangular shape in place, the additional external forces applied to the box when the box is carried is automatically in a sense counter-acted by the same action, namely the act of lifting the box. The collaboration between the triangle and the cut-out locking flap provides for a stronger and more stable structure such that the possibilities of stacking boxes is improved. Thus, the disclosed design provides for a durable and sturdy box construction which is easy to lock in the erected state as well as being easy and stable to carry by using the triangle and the cut-out in collaboration. It may in this context be noted that blank may generally have a bottom formed by one or more bottom panels connected to one or more of the side and end wall panels. The cut-out may be an internal cut-out such that the cut-out may be surrounded by continuous remaining portions of the first end wall panel. With the cut-out being surrounded by continuous remaining portions, a strong and stable structure, when carrying the box by using the cut-out, may be provided. Thus, the forces that are applied to the box when carrying the box may be divided between the continuous remaining portions. With the cut- out being surrounded by continuous remaining portions may also provide for an easier and more user-friendly box to carry. The first support panel may comprise a cut-out recess configured to receive at least a cut-out locking flap portion of the cut-out locking flap of the cut-out. By the cut-out recess being configured to receive at least a portion of the cut-out locking flap, the cut-out locking flap may be kept in place without any need of adhesive or similar means. By having the cut-out locking flap kept in place, the triangle may be locked in place. Thus, the cut-out locking flap may be received by the first support panel of the triangle such that the triangle may be locked in place. This provides for a strong and stable structure. The cut-out recess may receive the whole width of the cut-out locking flap. The cut-out recess may receive only a portion of the width of the cut-out locking flap; the portion may e.g. be a protruding cut-out locking flap portion. The cut-out may be positioned at a height such that, when the cut-out locking flap is folded into contact with the first support panel, the cut-out locking flap may extend at least to the contact between the first support panel and the inside surface of the first end wall such that the cut-out locking flap may reach the cut-out recess. The cut-out may be positioned at a height such that, when the cut-out locking flap is folded into contact with the first support panel, the cut-out locking flap may extend beyond the contact between the first support panel and the inside surface of the first end wall and through the recess of the first support panel. By the cut-out locking flap extending at least to the contact between the first support panel and the inside surface of the first end wall, the cut-out locking flap may be configured to be received by the cut-out recess of the first support panel. Thus, the cut-out may be positioned at a height such that the cut-out locking flap may reach the cut-out recess and thereby being kept in place. The first support panel may comprise one or more support panel locking flaps extending upwardly away from the first support panel along the longitudinal direction as seen in a flat-laid state of the blank such that the support panel locking flaps may extend away from the first support panel in an inclined direction downwardly and outwardly when the blank has been erected into the box. The first end wall panel may comprise one or more recesses configured to receive the one or more support panel locking flaps of the first support panel. By the provision of one or more support panel locking flaps and the one or more recesses, the first support panel may be kept in place in relation to the first end wall panel. Thus, the one or more support panel locking flaps and the one or more recesses may be configured to keep the triangle in place when the blank is erected into the box. Thereby, the cut-out locking flap and the cut-out recess as well as the one or more support panel locking flaps and the one or more recesses may together be configured to keep the structure, especially the triangle, in place when the blank is erected to form the box. Thus, a strong and stable structure is achieved. Put differently, the one or more support panel locking flaps may be received by the one or more recesses such that the triangle may be folded in the correct way as well as being kept in place. Thereafter, the cut-out locking flap may be received by the cut-out recess such that the triangle may be locked in place. Thus, with the cut-out locking flap and the cut-out recess as well as the one or more support panel locking flaps and the one or more recesses, it facilitates provision of a structure which is strong, which is easy to erect and which is capable of being handled without easily being unfolded unintentionally. The one or more recesses of the first end wall panel may be internal recesses such that the one or more recesses may be surrounded by continuous remaining portions of the first end wall panel. With the one or more recess being surrounded by continuous remaining portions provides for a strong and stable structure when the blank is in the erected state. Thus, with the one or more recesses being surrounded by continuous remaining portions, the one or more support panel locking flaps may be kept in place when being received by the one or more recesses. The blank may further comprise a first bottom panel being foldably connected to the first end wall panel as seen along the longitudinal direction of the blank. Preferably, the first bottom panel forms a part of a bottom of the box, when the blank is erected to form the box. The blank may further comprise a second bottom panel being foldably connected to the second end wall panel as seen along the longitudinal direction of the blank. Preferably, the second bottom panel forms a part of a bottom of the box, when the blank is erected to form the box. The blank may further comprise an end wall flap being foldably connected to the first end wall panel along a first longitudinally extending side of the first end wall panel as seen in the flat-laid state of the blank. The end wall flap may be attached, such as adhesively attached, to a side wall at the opposing side of the blank as seen along the transverse direction of the blank. This attachment may be performed at the site of erection. Alternatively, this attachment may be performed as a pre-attachment such that the blank is transported to the site of erection in a pre-attached but still flat laid state. In this latter pre-attached configuration, the structure may be erected and kept in place without any need of adhesive or similar means when the blank is erected into the box. The first side wall panel, the second end wall panel and the second side wall panel may be foldably connected one after the other as seen along a transverse direction of the blank, wherein the first side wall panel may be foldably connected to the first end wall panel along a second longitudinally extending side of the blank. The second end wall panel may be foldably connected to a second end top panel and a second support panel as seen along the longitudinal direction of the blank, wherein the second end wall panel may be configured to form a second end wall of the box, wherein the second end top panel may be configured to be folded in a first folding direction relative to the second end wall panel such that the second end top panel may extend inwardly from the second end wall panel and form a second top surface of the box, wherein the second support panel may be configured to be folded relative to the second end top panel along the first folding direction such that the second support panel may extend in an inclined direction downwardly and outwardly and into contact with an inside surface of the second end wall panel such that an upper portion of the second end wall panel, the second end top panel and the second support panel form a triangle when the blank is erected to the box, and wherein the second end wall panel may further comprise a cut-out and a cut-out locking flap being formed by the cut-out and being foldably connected to the second end wall panel, wherein the cut-out locking flap may be configured to be folded in a second folding direction, opposite the first folding direction, inwardly and upwardly into contact with the second support panel. Effects and features of the second end wall panel, the second end top panel and the second support panel are analogous to those described above in connection with the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel. Typically, the second end top panel and the second support panel are designed such that their basic configuration is identical to the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel. However, it should be noted that minor differences may be allowed, as long as the triangle may be formed in a more or less similar way as the triangle discussed above. By having an identical or at least similar arrangement of the second end wall panel, the second end top panel and the second support panel as the first end wall panel, the first end top panel and the first support panel such that a triangle is formed also at the second end wall, the strength and stability of the structure is even further improved. It may be noted that it may also or alternatively be said that the second end wall panel, the second end top panel and the second support panel are foldably connected one after the other as seen along the longitudinal direction of the blank. The first side wall panel may be foldably connected to a first side wall inside panel along a first transversally extending side as seen in the flat-laid state of the blank and wherein the second side wall panel is foldably connected to a second side wall inside panel along the first transversally extending side as seen in the flat-laid state of the blank. Preferably, the first and second side wall inside panels are configured to be folded relative to the first and second side wall panels, respectively, when the blank is erected into the box, such that double-layer side walls are provided. Preferably, the first and second side wall inside panels are kept in place, when the blank has been erected into the box, by the triangles formed by the first end wall panel, the first end top panel, the first support panel and the second end wall panel, the second end top panel, the second support panel, respectively.
