Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Halteelement für eine Faltflasche. Faltflaschen lassen sich nach dem Entleeren in Richtung ihrer Längsachse zusammendrücken und erleichtern somit den Transport in entleertem Zustand.The invention relates to a holding element for a folding bottle. Foldable bottles can be compressed in the direction of their longitudinal axis after emptying and thus facilitate transport when empty.

Aus der US-5 240 130 ist bereits eine zusammendrückbare Flasche bekannt, die einen Behälter aufweist, der das untere Ende der Flasche umfaßt. Die Flasche ist mit einer faltbaren Wand ausgebildet, die zusammengedrückt werden kann, so daß die axiale Länge der Flasche verkürzt und das Volumen verringert wird. Der Behälter weist einen elastischen Rand auf, der nach dem Zusammendrücken der Flasche über deren oberen Rand schnappt und unter Vorspannung radial nach innen gleitet. Auf diese Weise wird nach der Entleerung die Flasche durch den Behälter zusammengedrückt gehalten. In einer besonderen Ausführungsform sind am oberen Teil des Behälters mindestens zwei Verschlußarme gelenkig und unter Spannung angeordnet. Nach dem Zusammendrücken der Flasche schnappen diese Arme über deren Oberteil und halten sie im zusammengedrückten Zustand.A compressible bottle is already known from US Pat. No. 5,240,130 which has a container which comprises the lower end of the bottle. The bottle is formed with a foldable wall that can be compressed so that the axial length of the bottle is shortened and the volume is reduced. The container has an elastic edge which snaps over the upper edge after compression of the bottle and slides radially inwards under pretension. In this way, the bottle is kept compressed by the container after emptying. In a special embodiment, at least two locking arms are arranged articulated and under tension on the upper part of the container. Snap after squeezing the bottle these arms over their top and keep them squeezed together.

Diese bekannte Flasche hat den Nachteil, daß ein zusätzlicher Behälter erforderlich ist, der die Abfallmenge erhöht. Die Herstellung der Halteeinrichtungen am oberen Rand des Behälters ist sehr aufwendig. Außerdem läßt sich diese Flasche dann nicht mehr entfalten.
Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Halteelement für eine Faltflasche zur Verfügung zu stellen, das einfach herstellbar ist und nur einen geringen zusätzlichen Materialeinsatz erfordert, sowie eine Entriegelbarkeit und Wiederbefüllung der Flasche zuläßt.
Bei der Lösung geht die Erfindung von folgenden Grundgedanken aus.This known bottle has the disadvantage that an additional container is required, which increases the amount of waste. The manufacture of the holding devices at the top of the container is very complex. In addition, this bottle can then no longer be unfolded.
In contrast, the invention has for its object to provide a holding element for a folding bottle, which is easy to manufacture and requires little additional material, and allows the bottle to be unlocked and refilled.
In the solution, the invention is based on the following basic ideas.

Das Halteelement ist auf das Oberteil, bzw. den Flaschenhals einer Faltflasche aufsetzbar und umgibt mit mindestens einer Wand mindestens teilweise das Oberteil der Faltflasche. An der Innenseite jeder Halteelementwand ist mindestens ein Vorsprung vorgesehen, der in eine zugehörige Nase am unteren Ende der Faltflasche einrastbar ist. Im entleerten Zustand wird die Faltflasche dann im völlig zusammengedrückten Zustand gehalten, wobei ein platzsparender Transport des Leerguts ermöglicht wird.The holding element can be placed on the upper part or the bottle neck of a folding bottle and at least partially surrounds the upper part of the folding bottle with at least one wall. At least one projection is provided on the inside of each retaining element wall and can be snapped into an associated nose at the lower end of the folding bottle. In the emptied state, the folding bottle is then kept in the fully compressed state, which enables space-saving transport of the empties.

Der Vorteil der Erfindung liegt in einer einfachen und zuverlässigen Handhabung und der Austauschbarkeit des Halteelements, wenn z.B. eine Flasche defekt ist. Vorteilhafterweise läßt sich das Halteelement nach dem Transport der Flasche im zusammengedrückten Zustand vom Hersteller zum Befüller vor dem Befüllen durch Druck auf das Halteelement leicht öffnen, wonach sich die Faltflasche selbsttätig entfaltet und befüllt werden kann.The advantage of the invention lies in simple and reliable handling and the interchangeability of the holding element when e.g. a bottle is broken. After the bottle has been transported, the holding element can advantageously be easily opened from the manufacturer to the filler by pressure on the holding element before being filled, after which the folding bottle can be automatically unfolded and filled.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform des Halteelements 1 als Bestandteil eines Flaschenverschlusses 6. Das Halteelement weist an seinem offenen Ende, am Ende der Wand 1a Vorsprünge 3 auf. Das Unterteil 2d der Faltflasche weist an seinem Rand Nasen 2c auf, die im völlig zusammengedrückten Zustand in Aussparungen (siehe Fig. 3a) der Vorsprünge 3 einschnappen. Auf diese Weise wird eine besonders stabile Haltung im zusammengedrückten Zustand, z.B. beim Transport des Leerguts ermöglicht. Vorzugsweise sind die Vorsprünge 3 starr mit der Wand 1a verbunden. Die Wand 1a umgibt das Oberteil 2a der Faltflasche 2 mindestens teilweise.1 shows an embodiment of the holding element 1 according to the invention as part of a bottle stopper 6. The holding element has projections 3 at its open end, at the end of the wall 1a. The lower part 2d of the folding bottle has lugs 2c on its edge, which snap into recesses (see FIG. 3a) of the projections 3 in the completely compressed state. In this way, a particularly stable posture in the compressed state, e.g. enabled when transporting the empties. The projections 3 are preferably rigidly connected to the wall 1a. The wall 1a surrounds the upper part 2a of the folding bottle 2 at least partially.

Fig. 2a zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform, wobei das Halteteil 1 separat ausgebildet ist. Das Halteteil 1 ist in eine Nut 5 am Flaschenhals (2e) eingeschnappt und hält mit den Vorsprüngen 3 die am Unterteil 2d in die Nase 2c eingerastet sind, die Faltflasche 2 im völlig zusammengedrückten Zustand.Fig. 2a shows an embodiment according to the invention, wherein the holding part 1 is formed separately. The holding part 1 is snapped into a groove 5 on the bottle neck (2e) and holds the projections 3 in the nose 2c on the lower part 2d are engaged, the folding bottle 2 in the fully compressed state.

In Fig. 2b ist eine Draufsicht auf die Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 2a dargestellt. In dieser Ausführungsform wird die Faltflasche 2 nur an zwei Seiten von dem Halteelement 1 gehalten. Das Halteelement kann an den jeweiligen Querschnitt einer Flasche (quadratisch, rechteckig, rund, sechseckig, achteckig) angepaßt werden. Dabei genügt es, zwei diagonal gegenüberliegende Nasen 2c bzw. Aussparungen 3a anzuordnen. Es ist jedoch möglich, die Faltflasche an mehreren Stellen zu halten.FIG. 2b shows a top view of the embodiment according to FIG. 2a. In this embodiment, the folding bottle 2 is only held on two sides by the holding element 1. The holding element can be adapted to the respective cross section of a bottle (square, rectangular, round, hexagonal, octagonal). It is sufficient to arrange two diagonally opposite lugs 2c or cutouts 3a. However, it is possible to hold the folding bottle in several places.

Fig. 3a zeigt einen vergrößerten Ausschnitt der linken Oberkante des Halteelements 1 in den Figuren 2a und 2b mit einer in eine Aussparung 3a des Vorsprungs 3 eingerasteten Nase 2c am Unterteil 2d der Faltflasche, und in Fig. 3b wird der vergrößerte Ausschnitt gemaß Fig. 3a in der Draufsicht und teilweise aufgeschnitten dargestellt. Das Einschnappen der Nase 2c in die Aussparung 3a erfolgt, nachdem die Falten 2b völlig zusammengedrückt wurden, wobei die Schräge 3c der Vorsprünge 3 ein leichtes Abgleiten der Falten 2b in Richtung des Zusammendrückens gewährleistet. Das Öffnen der Faltflasche aus dem zusammengedrückten Zustand erfolgt durch seitlichen Druck auf die Schräge 3c, wodurch das Halteelement nach außen gedrückt und die Nase 2c von der Aussparung 3a freikommt. Zusätzlich kann vertikale Druckeinwirkung auf die zusammengedrückte Faltflasche ausgeübt werden.3a shows an enlarged section of the left upper edge of the holding element 1 in FIGS. 2a and 2b with a nose 2c latched into a recess 3a of the projection 3 on the lower part 2d of the folding bottle, and in FIG. 3b the enlarged section is measured according to FIG. 3a shown in plan view and partially cut away. The snapping of the nose 2c into the recess 3a takes place after the folds 2b have been completely compressed, the bevel 3c of the projections 3 ensuring that the folds 2b slide easily in the direction of the compression. The folding bottle is opened from the compressed state by lateral pressure on the bevel 3c, as a result of which the holding element is pressed outwards and the nose 2c is released from the recess 3a. In addition, vertical pressure can be exerted on the compressed folding bottle.

Fig. 4a zeigt einen Querschnitt durch ein Halteelement 1 ohne Faltflasche, und in Fig. 4b wird das Halteelement gemäß Fig. 4a in der Draufsicht dargestellt. Die Öffnung 1b kann auf eine Nut 5, wie in Fig. 2a dargestellt, aufgeschnappt werden. Das Halteelement 1 kann aber auch durch Vorsprünge oder Klemmen am Flaschenhals 2e, die in die Öffnung 1b eingreifen, an der Faltflasche 2 gehaltert werden.FIG. 4a shows a cross section through a holding element 1 without a folding bottle, and in FIG. 4b the holding element according to FIG. 4a is shown in a top view. The opening 1b can be snapped onto a groove 5, as shown in FIG. 2a. However, the holding element 1 can also be held on the folding bottle 2 by means of projections or clamps on the bottle neck 2e which engage in the opening 1b.

Die Seitenwand 1a des Halteelements 1 eignet sich gut für eine Beschriftung z.B. des in der Faltflasche befindlichen Produkts oder zu Werbezwecken. Auf diese Weise läßt sich der Verwendungszweck der Faltflasche auch im zusammengedrückten Zustand noch erkennen. Die Beschriftung kann als Aufdruck oder Aufkleber an der Außenwand 1a des Halteelements angebracht sein. Es ist jedoch auch eine entsprechende Materialausprägung möglich. Weiterhin kann das Halteelement einoder mehrfarbig ausgebildet sein.The side wall 1a of the holding element 1 is well suited for labeling e.g. of the product in the folding bottle or for advertising purposes. In this way, the intended use of the folding bottle can still be seen even when compressed. The lettering can be attached as a print or sticker on the outer wall 1a of the holding element. However, a corresponding material specification is also possible. Furthermore, the holding element can be designed in one or more colors.

Das Halteelement 1 ist aus Kunststoff, vorzugsweise aus Polypropylen herstellbar.The holding element 1 can be produced from plastic, preferably from polypropylene.
