PACKAGING FOR THE PADDED WRAPPING OF ARTICLES AS WELL AS CUT-OUT, METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING SUCH PACKAGING

摘要

The invention relates to packaging (1) for the padded, shock-resistant wrapping of articles (9) ready for dispatch. The invention also relates to a cut-out (2), a method and a device for producing packaging (1) of this type which consists of an internal packing (11) intended for an outer envelope (12) receiving same. A flexible padding/holding section (60) which contacts the article to be packaged (9) is embodied by a closed twist (6) which holds said article (9) in place. The twist (6) is preferably a spiral twist and tightly closed such that it elastically absorbs any shocks. A spring-elastic padding (4) integrated in the packaging (1) is preloaded by the fact that the twist (6) engages at least one padding section (31, 321) in such a way that said padding section (31, 321) is held in a displaced position against a restoring force. According to said method characteristics (K) of the article to be packaged are detected and used to control the degree of twist (68) so as to adjust the holding force and/or elasticity of elongation of the twist (6) and thus to ensure that the packaging (1) with integrated preloaded padding (4) has the shock-absorbing effect appropriate for the article (9) to be packaged. The invention also relates to a device for carrying the said method which comprises electronic connecting and processing means for controlling the degree of twisting (68).
