Abstract

Bottle-type containers which have an annular bead at the container neck can be equipped with a grip aid to facilitate handling. A grip aid of this type is a finger grip which consists of a grip part and a ring part. The ring part has several elastic blocking portions on the inside of the ring. After mounting the finger grip, the blocking portions prevent the finger grip from slipping back over the bead of the container neck. The finger grip preferably consists of a flexible material, especially a thermoplastic. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Fingergriff für ein flaschenartiges Gefäß, das am Gefäßhals einen ringförmigen Wulst aufweist.The invention relates to a finger grip for a bottle-like vessel, which has an annular bead on the neck of the vessel.

Es ist bekannt, flaschenartige Gefäße, insbesondere Glasgefäße, mit Griff- und Gießhilfen auszurüsten, die in Form von Grifflöchern oder Griffösen fest am Gefäßhals angeformt sind. Solche integrierten Griffe sind sowohl aus produktionstechnischen als auch aus sicherheitstechnischen Gründen nachteilig, da sie nicht bruchsicher sind und den Benutzer auch zum unsachgemäßen Tragen der Gefäße verleiten.It is known to equip bottle-like vessels, in particular glass vessels, with grip and pouring aids which are integrally formed on the neck of the vessel in the form of grip holes or grip eyelets. Such integrated handles are disadvantageous for both production and safety reasons, because they are not shatterproof and also tempt the user to carry the vessels improperly.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist die Bereitstellung einer Griffvorrichtung für ein flaschenartiges Gefäß, die aus einem bruchsicheren Material besteht und irreversibel am Gefäßhals angebracht werden kann.The object of the invention is to provide a handle device for a bottle-like vessel, which consists of a shatterproof material and can be irreversibly attached to the neck of the vessel.

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Fingergriff für ein flaschenartiges Gefäß, das am Gefäßhals einen ringförmigen Wu7st aufweist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß er aus einem Griffteil und einem Ringteil besteht, das an der Ringinnenseite elastische Sperrabschnitte aufweist.The invention relates to a finger grip for a bottle-like vessel which has an annular bead on the neck of the vessel, characterized in that it consists of a handle part and a ring part which has elastic locking sections on the inside of the ring.

Der erfindungsgemäße Fingergriff besteht vorzugsweise aus einem flexiblen Material, insbesondere einem thermoplastischen Kunststoff. Besonders geeignete Kunststoffe sind Polyamide, Polyester und vor allem Polyolefine, z.B. Polyethylen mit hoher Dichte.The finger grip according to the invention preferably consists of a flexible material, in particular a thermoplastic. Particularly suitable plastics are polyamides, polyesters and especially polyolefins, e.g. High density polyethylene.

Der Fingergriff ist dadurch besonders vorteilhaft, daß er an handelsüblichen Gefäßen, die am Gefäßhals einen ringförmigen Wulst aufweisen, nachträglich angebracht werden kann.The finger grip is particularly advantageous in that it can be retrofitted to commercially available vessels that have an annular bead on the neck of the vessel.

Ein wesentliches Merkmal des erfindungsgemäßen Fingergriffs ist das Vorhandensein von elastischen Sperrabschnitten an der Innenseite des Ringteils. Die Anzahl der Abschnitte beträgt - je nach Größe des Ringteils - vorzugsweise 2 bis 12. Die Abschnitte sind so geformt, daß sie elastisch nachgeben, wenn der Fingergriff mit dem Ringteil über den Wulst des Gefäßhalses gezogen wird, ein Zurückgleiten aber verhindern und dadurch den Fingergriff irreversibel mit dem Gefäßhals verbinden. Die Sperrabschnitte sind durch Ausschnitte voneinander getrennt, die jeweils dieselbe Tiefe aufweisen oder auch, insbesondere bei einer Vielzahl von Sperrabschnitten, verschieden tief sind. Eine Ablösung des Fingergriffs von dem Gefäß ist ohne Zerstörung des Fingergriffs nicht möglich.An essential feature of the finger grip according to the invention is the presence of elastic locking sections on the inside of the ring part. The number of sections is - depending on the size of the ring part - preferably 2 to 12. The sections are shaped so that they give way elastically when the finger grip with the ring part is pulled over the bulge of the neck of the vessel, but prevent sliding back and thereby the finger grip connect irreversibly to the neck of the vessel. The locking sections are separated from one another by cutouts which each have the same depth or, in particular in the case of a large number of locking sections, are of different depths. Detachment of the finger grip from the vessel is not possible without destroying the finger grip.

Das Griffteil des Fingergriffs ist so gestaltet, daß es maximal drei Finger aufnehmen kann. Durch diese kleine Auslegung des Griffteils soll eine nicht sachgemäße Anwendung, z.B. Tragen des Gefäßes über eine längere Strecke, erschwert werden.The grip part of the finger grip is designed so that it can hold a maximum of three fingers. Due to this small design of the handle part, improper use, e.g. Carrying the vessel over a longer distance may be difficult.

Die äußere Gestalt des Ringteils ist beliebig; sie ist zweckmäßigerweise ringförmig, kann aber auch eckig sein. Die Ringinnenseite muß der Form des Gefäßhalses, an dem der Fingergriff befestigt werden soll, angepaßt sein. Vorzugsweise liegt das Ringteil nicht fest am Gefäßhals an, sondern läßt einen geringen Abstand, so daß der Fingergriff drehbar ist.The outer shape of the ring part is arbitrary; it is expediently ring-shaped, but can also be angular. The inside of the ring must be adapted to the shape of the neck of the vessel to which the finger grip is to be attached. The ring part preferably does not lie firmly against the neck of the vessel, but leaves a small distance so that the finger grip can be rotated.

Der erfindungsgemäße Fingergriff besteht vorzugsweise aus einem Stück, das je nach Material in einem Arbeitsgang geformt wird, z.B. durch Pressen, Spritzgießen oder Stanzen. Er kann aber auch aus zwei Einzelteilen zusammengesetzt sein, wobei dann Griffteil und Ringteil in getrennten Arbeitsgängen hergestellt und anschließend miteinander verbunden werden; hierbei können Griffteil und Ringteil aus verschiedenen Werkstoffen bestehen. Einige Ausführungsformen der Erfindung werden durch die Zeichnung näher erläutert:

  • Figur 1 zeigt eine Draufsicht eines aus einem Stück bestehenden Fingergriffs mit einem für drei Finger vorgesehenen Griffteil 1 und einem runden Ringteil 2, das vier elastische Sperrabschnitte 3 aufweist, welche durch die Ausschnitte 4 voneinander getrennt sind.
  • Figur 2 zeigt einen Längsschnitt durch den in Figur 1 dargestellten Fingergriff längs 'der Linie II - II.
  • Figur 3 zeigt eine Draufsicht eines aus einem Stück bestehenden Fingergriffs mit einem für drei Finger vorgesehenen Griffteil 1 und einem runden Ringteil 2, das acht elastische Sperrabschnitte 3 aufweist, welche -durch die Ausschnitte 4 voneinander getrennt sind.
  • Figur 4 zeigt einen Längsschnitt durch den in Figur 3 dargestellten Fingergriff längs der Linie IV - IV.
  • Figur 5 zeigt eine Draufsicht eines aus einem Stück bestehenden Fingergriffs mit einem für zwei Finger vorgesehenen Griffteil 1 und einem nach außen eckigen Ringteil 2, das zwölf elastische Sperrabschnitte 3 aufweist, welche durch verschieden tiefe Ausschnitte 4 voneinander getrennt sind.
  • Figur 6 zeigt eine Draufsicht eines aus zwei Einzelteilen .zusammengesetzten Fingergriffs.
The finger grip according to the invention preferably consists of one piece, which is formed in one operation depending on the material, for example by pressing, injection molding or stamping. However, it can also be composed of two individual parts, the handle part and the ring part then being produced in separate operations and then being connected to one another; here handle part and ring part can consist of different materials. Some embodiments of the invention are explained in more detail by the drawing:
  • FIG. 1 shows a plan view of a one-piece finger grip with a grip part 1 provided for three fingers and a round ring part 2 which has four elastic locking sections 3 which are separated from one another by the cutouts 4.
  • FIG. 2 shows a longitudinal section through the finger grip shown in FIG. 1 along the line II-II.
  • FIG. 3 shows a plan view of a one-piece finger grip with a grip part 1 intended for three fingers and a round ring part 2 which has eight elastic locking sections 3 which are separated from one another by the cutouts 4.
  • Figure 4 shows a longitudinal section through the finger grip shown in Figure 3 along the line IV - IV.
  • FIG. 5 shows a plan view of a one-piece finger grip with a grip part 1 provided for two fingers and an outwardly angular ring part 2 which has twelve elastic locking sections 3 which are separated from one another by cutouts 4 of different depths.
  • FIG. 6 shows a top view of a finger grip composed of two individual parts.
