Description

The invention relates to a pallet-like base for Transport and storage container for liquids with one Inner container made of plastic with a closable Filling opening and an emptying nozzle for connecting one Withdrawal valve and an outer jacket made of a metal grille or sheet metal, the base with one on support feet a middle runner and two outer runners on the floor Including the inner container and the outer jacket is.

The need to save raw materials as well as Transport and storage costs and the statutory Environmental regulations force the relevant industry in addition to liquids for transport and storage in large volume, offered on the market as reusable containers usable containers of the generic type according to the DE 42 06 945 C1 instead of as previously in barrels with essential to fill less capacity.

The disadvantage of the generic pallet containers that dripping liquid during the removal and through a leaky tap from the inner container liquid dripping out of control can escape into the open can.

The invention is based on the object Generic pallet-like base for transport and  Develop storage containers for liquids that the Offers the possibility of using the tap of the To catch the dripping liquid.

This object is achieved by a Pallet-like base for liquid containers with the Features of claim 1.

The sub-claims contain advantageous and expedient Developments of the base frame according to the invention.

The new pallet-like base for Liquid container is with one in the middle runner under the Removal valve of the plastic inner container integrated Collection vessel for liquid dripping from the tap equipped, which is a simple uncontrolled Escape of liquid from the liquid container into the Free prevented.

The invention is below with reference to drawing figures explained, which represent the following:

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a transport and storage container for liquids with a pallet-like underframe,

Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the center skid of the base and

Fig. 3 is a front view of the center runner of FIG. 2 with an outer support leg arranged under the removal fitting of the liquid container.

The transport and storage container 1 for liquids used as a disposable and reusable container has as its main components an exchangeable, cuboid-shaped inner container 2 made of plastic, which has a filler neck 3 in the upper base 5 , which can be closed with a lid 4, and an emptying nozzle 6 in the region of the lower base 7 is equipped for the connection of a removal fitting 8 , an outer jacket 9 made of intersecting horizontal and vertical bars 10 , 11 made of metal and a pallet-like base frame 12 with length and width dimensions in accordance with European standards, each with a central support leg 13 and two outer support legs 14 , 15 of a middle runner 16 and of two outer runners 17 , 18 lying on the floor 19 for receiving the inner container 2 and the outer jacket 9 .

The center runner 16 and the two outer runners 17 , 18 of the base frame 12 are made of plastic, and the bottom 19 of the base frame is made of sheet metal.

The outer support leg 14 of the central runner 16 of the base frame 12, which is arranged under the removal fitting 8 of the inner container 2 in the outlet area of the fitting, is designed as a collecting vessel for liquid dripping from the withdrawal fitting 8 .

The vessel-like outer support leg 14 of the center runner 16 is formed by a base 20 , two side walls 21 , 22 , a rear wall 23 and a front wall 24 with a recess 25 , and the front wall 24 of the support leg 14 is connected to the two side walls 21 via predetermined breaking points 26 , 22 connected.

When opening a z. B. falling from a transport vehicle or falling from a crane transport and storage container 1 with the base 12 on the floor is provided with the predetermined breaking points 26 front wall 24 of the support leg 14 formed as a collecting vessel 14 of the center runner 16 by the downward pressing and forward pushing removal fitting 8 broken out, so that damage to the removal fitting is avoided and thus leakage of the container is prevented.

The bottom 20 of the vessel-like support leg 14 of the middle runner 16 of the base frame 12 has a drain hole 27 which can be closed by means of a plug 28 which is captively fastened to the support base 14 or the base 19 of the base frame 12 with a band or a wire 29 .

When storing transport and storage containers 1 outdoors, the drain hole 27 in the bottom 20 of the vessel-like support leg 14 of the center runner 16 is not closed by a stopper 28 , so that no rainwater accumulates in the support leg.

In a modification of the described embodiment, the runners 16-18 of the base frame 12 of the transport and storage container 1 can be made of metal and the bottom 19 of the base frame can be made of wood or plastic.
