DE20314142U1 - Plastic bucket for cleaning has cover with drying opening and mounting for washing roller - Google Patents

Abstract

The plastic bucket (1) has a cover (2) with a rotatably mounted handle loop (9). The bucket has roller mountings (7) for a washing roller extending across it and form locking with it. The bucket has cut outs (6) to receive the roller mountings. The cover can be a flat lid with an opening to allow drying of the bucket.

Description

The innovation concerns a lid for a plastic bucket with a pivoted handle, the plastic bucket with roller holders for one Bucket spanning Has washing roller.

As state of the art is from the DE 298 17 020 U1 a packaging for a plastic bucket with a rotatably mounted handle is known, the packaging consisting of a cardboard box which surrounds the bucket on at least four sides. Plastic buckets with such packaging are often offered for sale in hardware stores, with other items, e.g. B. cleaning tool. Those interested in such plastic buckets often open the packaging in order to gain access to the cleaning tools in the plastic bucket. In the event that such opened plastic buckets with damaged packaging are ultimately not purchased by the customer, they cannot be resold by the hardware stores and must be removed from the market.

The innovation is based on the task, one Packing for to offer a plastic bucket, which u. a. destructively open and can be closed again. Furthermore, the innovation is the The task is to offer a plastic bucket with such a closure.

This task is covered by a lid for one Plastic bucket with the features of claim 1 solved. advantageous embodiments of the lid are described in subclaims 2-8. For the plastic bucket the task is solved by the features of the protection claim 9. A advantageous embodiment of the plastic bucket is described in dependent claim 9

The new lid for a plastic bucket with The swivel-mounted handle is form-fitting with the plastic bucket connectable and has recesses for receiving the roll holders. This allows the lid to inspect the contents of the plastic bucket and in particular cleaning tools located therein and be closed again. Destruction of packaging, like with the described prior art, no longer takes place. Open and Resealed plastic buckets can continue to be offered for sale become. This enables the new lid a significant cost saving compared to the conventional way through plastic packaging buckets sealed according to the state of the art of the technique.

For positive and detachable connection the lid has in particular projections ("clips") which have an upper edge of the plastic bucket springy and cover the lid with a certain holding force Removable plastic bucket Fasten. Such resilient projections allow frequent detachment and replace the cover without wear.

After another advantageous one embodiment the lid is designed as a flat component and covers the top of the plastic bucket as a flat Element. Plastic buckets covered in this way can Storage purposes can be stacked. Such a stacking is particularly then relieved when the at the top of the plastic bucket existing roll holders, which over the attached lid protrude into corresponding recesses on the underside of the plastic bucket, which is parked on a lower plastic bucket.

According to another advantageous embodiment the lid is designed as a plastic part and can be inexpensively Injection molding process become.

If the lid and the rim of the Plastic bucket with attached and resting on the plastic bucket Cover each other without overlap, the size of the plastic bucket is not changed when the lid is on. Possibly can be a slight supernatant the lid over the edge of the plastic bucket occur to grasp the protrusions of the Lid to allow the edge of the plastic bucket.

The lid advantageously has at least one opening with any geometric shape (e.g. circular, square etc.) for drying those in the plastic bucket wet objects, z. B. from cleaning tool. When using the plastic bucket and cleaning tools These are often used for cleaning purposes after the cleaning process has ended turned off, the cleaning tools often not yet completely dried out are and have residual moisture.

The new lid with attached opening allows one Closure of the plastic bucket after the cleaning process to further pollution of the interior to avoid the plastic bucket. Through the opening provided nevertheless, the cleaning tools ingested dry out.

Alternatively or in addition can the lid can also be attached to the plastic bucket at a distance, ventilation openings between the lid and plastic bucket for drying the in Objects located in plastic buckets, in particular cleaning tools, are attached. Through such ventilation openings in the plastic bucket Existing moisture from the side of the plastic bucket in all directions escape.

The plastic bucket described is used to attach a lid with recesses in the plastic bucket. The plastic bucket can be opened and covered again and again, without packaging of the plastic bucket damaged must become.

The innovation is based on examples of execution explained in the drawing figures. It demonstrate:

1 a plastic bucket with a lid on,

2 a side view of a plastic bucket with a lid and

3 a side view of a plastic bucket with spaced lid.

1 shows a schematic representation of a plastic bucket 1 with a handle 9 and an attached lid 2 whose projections 3 the edge 4 of the plastic bucket 1 grasp releasably and positively. The tabs 3 have the function of "clips" which are resilient and the edge 4 of the plastic bucket 1 include.

The lid 2 is designed as a flat component and in particular as a plastic part and can therefore be produced inexpensively. Through openings 5 of the lid 2 can from inside the plastic bucket 1 Moisture can escape and therefore can be in the plastic bucket 1 cleaning tools known per se and not shown (e.g. wipers, sponges, etc.) are dried. At the same time, the top of the plastic bucket remains 1 through the attached lid 2 largely completed, so that no further contamination inside the plastic bucket 1 occurs.

recesses 6 of the lid 2 are used to hold the roll holders 7 of the plastic bucket 1 , The roll holders 7 serve with the cover removed 2 to accommodate a known washing roll (not shown in detail).

2 shows how the ledges 3 of the lid 2 the edge 4 of the plastic bucket 1 embrace. The plastic bucket 1 can have recesses at the bottom 8th (e.g. depressions), which when stacking several plastic buckets 1 with the lid on 2 serve the roll mounts 7 lower plastic bucket 1 take.

In the embodiment according to 3 is the lid 2 spaced apart by a distance 10 on the plastic bucket 1 appropriate. Between the ledges 3 there are ventilation openings 11 to dehumidify the content of the plastic bucket 1 ,
