Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Trageband für einen mit Deckel versehenen Behälter, bestehend aus einem halbsteifen, im Längsrichtung biegbaren Material und einem Verschlußstück zur Sicherung des Deckels des Behälters gegen unbeabsichtigtes Öffnen desselben.The invention relates to a carrying strap for a container provided with a lid, consisting of a semi-rigid material which can be bent in the longitudinal direction and a closure piece for securing the lid of the container against unintentional opening thereof.

In mit Tragebändern und mit einem leicht öffenbaren Deckel versehenen Behältern werden zahlreiche pulverförmige oder flüssige Produkte vertrieben. Bei einem unbeabsichtigten Öffnen des Deckels besteht nicht nur die Gefahr, dass der Behälterinhalt versehentlich verschüttet wird, sondern vor allen Dingen, dass Kinder den Deckel vom Behälter abnehmen und dadurch an den Inhalt herankommen, der nicht zum Verzehr bestimmt und häufig schädlich ist oder sogar ätzend wirkt.Numerous powder or liquid products are sold in containers with carrying straps and an easily openable lid. If the lid is opened unintentionally, there is not only the risk that the contents of the container are accidentally spilled, but above all that children remove the lid from the container and thereby get to the contents that are not intended for consumption and are often harmful or even caustic works.

Bei den bekannten Behältern, wie sie beispielsweise für Waschpulver, Spülmittel und dergleichen verwendet werden, ist das Trageband an beiden Enden an gegenüberliegenden Seiten der Behälterwandung angenietet und der Deckel ist leicht abnehmbar.In the known containers, such as those used for washing powder, washing-up liquid and the like, the carrying strap is riveted at both ends on opposite sides of the container wall and the lid is easily removable.

Die GB-A-271 275 beschreibt einen Behälter, dessen an gegenüberliegenden Punkten des oberen Behälterrandes befestigtes Trageband mit einem Halteband aus Metall für den Behälterdeckel kombiniert ist. Vor dem Befestigen am Behälterrand wird das Trageband durch je ein Loch an den Enden des Haltebandes gesteckt, derart, dass das letztgenannte zwischen dem die Behälteroberseite überspannenden Bogen des Tragebandes und der Behälteroberseite zu liegen kommt. Nachdem die Behälteröffnung mit dem Behälterdeckel verschlossen ist, wird das Halteband an seinen gegenüberliegenden Enden entlang des Tragebandes nach unten geschoben und fest gegen den Behälterdeckel gedrückt. Danach wird das Trageband um seine gegenüberliegenden Befestigungspunkte geschwenkt und nach unten gedrückt. Solange das Trageband in dieser Stellung ist, kann der Behälterdeckel nicht entfernt werden. Das Trageband kann aber jeder Zeit ohne Kraftanstrengung oder Schwierigkeiten in Arbeitsstellung geschwenkt werden. Da dabei auch das Halteband lockerer wird, kann der Behälterdeckel gelöst und abgenommen werden.GB-A-271 275 describes a container whose carrying strap attached at opposite points of the upper container edge is combined with a metal holding strap for the container lid. Before being fastened to the edge of the container, the carrying strap is inserted through a hole at each end of the holding strap, such that the latter comes to rest between the sheet of the carrying strap that spans the top of the container and the top of the container. After the container opening is closed with the container lid, the retaining strap is pushed down at its opposite ends along the carrying strap and pressed firmly against the container lid. The lanyard is then pivoted around its opposite fastening points and pressed down. As long as the lanyard is in this position, the container lid cannot be removed. However, the lanyard can be pivoted into the working position at any time without effort or difficulty. Since the tether is also loosened, the container lid can be loosened and removed.

Aus der CH-A-537 844 ist ein Spannband aus flexiblem Material bekannt, das dazu dient, in Form einer Schlaufe ein Bündel in verstellbarer und selbstarretierender Weise zu umgeben. Das Spannband besteht aus einem Streifen, dessen eine Seite mit einer Vielzahl von in Längsrichtung im Abstand voneinander angeordneten und in Querrichtung verlaufenden sägezahnförmigen Streifenzähnen versehen ist. An einem Streifenende ist ein Spannkopf vorgesehen, dessen Wände eine Öffnung für einen Durchtritt des Streifens einschliessen. In die Öffnung ragt eine Rastklaue, in der entsprechende Streifenzähne des Streifens beim Spannen des Bandes einrasten, wobei ein optimales Zusammengreifen der Schliessteile erreicht wird. Auf diese Weise werden Bündel fest zusammengehalten und durch eine nach oben wirkende Kraft am Streifen, beispielsweise beim Tragen des Bündels durch Festhalten am Streifen, wird die arretierte Lage sehr intensiv beibehalten.From CH-A-537 844 a tension band made of flexible material is known, which serves to surround a bundle in the form of a loop in an adjustable and self-locking manner. The tensioning band consists of a strip, one side of which is provided with a plurality of sawtooth-shaped strip teeth which are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction and extend in the transverse direction. A tensioning head is provided at one end of the strip, the walls of which include an opening for a passage of the strip. A locking claw protrudes into the opening, into which corresponding strip teeth of the strip engage when the strap is tensioned, whereby an optimal engagement of the closing parts is achieved. In this way, bundles are held firmly together and the locked position is maintained very intensively by an upward force on the strip, for example when the bundle is carried by holding on to the strip.

Eine weitere Ausführungsform, bei der ein Behälterdeckel durch eine Halterung gesichert ist, ist aus der US-A-4 067 493 bekannt. Hier wird der Deckel durch einen Haltebügel gesichert, der aus einem relativ kurzen elastischen, über den Deckel gespannten Halteband und einem relativ langen, nicht elastischen Bügel besteht. Halteband und Bügel sind fest miteinander verbunden und durch je ein an den Enden des Bügels und Haltebandes befestigtes T-förmiges Verschlußstück am Behälterrand gehalten. Die Verschlußstücke werden durch je ein Langloch an gegenüberliegenden Stellen der Behälterwand gesteckt und durch Verdrehen der T-Balken am Herausrutschen aus den Langlöchern gehindert. Eine besondere Sicherung bildet aber ein solcher Verschluss nicht, da durch Schwenken des Haltebügels auch die T-förmigen Verschlußstücke gedreht werden und dabei aus den Langlöchern herausrutschen können.A further embodiment in which a container lid is secured by a holder is known from US-A-4 067 493. Here the lid is secured by a retaining bracket, which consists of a relatively short elastic retaining strap stretched over the lid and a relatively long, non-elastic bracket. Retaining strap and strap are firmly connected to each other and held by a T-shaped closure piece attached to the ends of the strap and strap at the container edge. The locking pieces are inserted through an elongated hole at opposite points on the container wall and prevented from slipping out of the elongated holes by rotating the T-bar. However, such a closure does not provide any special security, since the T-shaped closure pieces can also be rotated by pivoting the retaining bracket and can slide out of the elongated holes.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Trageband zu schaffen, das durch ein Verschlußstück fest über die Oberseite des Deckels eines Behälters gespannt werden kann und in dieser Stellung gehalten wird und nur durch beabsichtigtes und bekanntes Betätigen des Verschlußstücks das Trageband aus der den Deckel haltenden Stellung gelöst und der Deckel freigegeben wird.The object of the invention is to provide a lanyard that can be stretched tightly over a top of the lid of a container by a closure piece and is held in this position and only released the lanyard from the position holding the lid by intentional and known actuation of the closure piece and the lid is released.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Trageband der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, dass es an einem Endstück mit einer Verzahnung oder Riffelung versehen ist, dieses Endstück durch ein an der Wand des Behälters befestigtes hülsenförmiges Verschlußstück gesteckt und darin längsverschiebbar ist, an der der Verzahnung oder Riffelung am Trageband zugekehrten Innenseite des Verschlußstücks mindestens ein mit der Verzahnung oder Riffelung zusammenwirkendes Rastglied vorgesehen ist, dem ein Auslöser zum Ausklinken aus dem Eingriff in der Verzahnung oder Riffelung zugeordnet ist.This object is achieved by a carrying strap of the type mentioned in that it is provided with a toothing or corrugation at one end piece, this end piece is inserted through a sleeve-shaped closure piece fastened to the wall of the container and is longitudinally displaceable therein, on which the toothing or corrugation at least one latching element cooperating with the toothing or corrugation is provided on the inside of the closure piece facing the carrying strap, to which a trigger for releasing from the engagement in the toothing or corrugation is assigned.

Zweckmässige Ausführungsformen sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Appropriate embodiments are characterized in the subclaims.

Ein Trageband mit einem solchen Verschlußstück kann an dem mit der Verzahnung oder Riffelung versehenen Ende nach unten gezogen und fest an die Oberseite des Deckels des Behälters gelegt und gespannt werden. Das Rastglied greift dabei in die Verzahnung oder Riffelung am Trageband ein und arretiert dieses in der Haltestellung für den Deckel, so dass dieser nicht abgenommen werden kann. Erst wenn der Auslöser betätigt wird, wird das Trageband entrastet bzw. entriegelt und kann in seine Arbeitsstellung, sei es zum seitlichen Umlegen beim Füllen des Behälters oder bei der Produktentnahme aus dem Behälter oder in Tragestellung, hochgezogen werden, so dass der Deckel freigegeben wird. Zum Entrasten und Hochziehen des Tragebandes sind stets zwei Hände erforderlich, nämlich eine zum Betätigen des Auslösers oder der Auslöser des Verschlußstücks und eine zum Hochziehen des Tragebandes. Da zudem auch noch der Behälter von oben niedergedrückt werden muss, um einen Gegendruck dem nach oben gerichteten Zug am Trageband entgegenzusetzen, ist es für ein Kind praktisch unmöglich, das Trageband aus der Verrastung zu lösen und hochzuziehen. Damit ist eine kindersichere und einwandfreie Halterung des Deckels am Behälter gewährleistet.A carrying strap with such a closure piece can be pulled down at the end provided with the toothing or corrugation and placed firmly on the top of the lid of the container and tensioned. The latching element engages in the toothing or corrugation on the carrying strap and locks it in the holding position for the lid, so that it cannot be removed. Only when the trigger is actuated is the strap released or unlocked and can be in its working position, be it to fold it sideways when filling the container or when removing the product from the Container or in the carrying position, so that the lid is released. To unlock and pull up the lanyard, two hands are always required, namely one to actuate the trigger or the trigger of the closure piece and one to pull up the lanyard. Since the container also has to be pressed down from above to counteract the upward pull on the carrying strap, it is practically impossible for a child to release the carrying strap from the catch and pull it up. This ensures child-proof and flawless retention of the lid on the container.

Das zur Verrastung des Tragebandes 1 dienende Federglied 6 ist an der der Behälterwand zugekehrten Wand 5a der Hülse 5 angeformt und der Drehpunkt 7 wird durch eine Ausnehmung am Ansatz des Federgliedes 6 an der Hülsenwand 5a gebildet. Im entspannten Zustand ragt das freie Ende 6' des Federgliedes 6 in das Innere der Hülse 5 und greift in eine Zahnlücke der Verzahnung 2 am Endstück 1a des Tragebandes 1 ein (Fig. 5).In the embodiment shown (FIGS. 1 and 5), the end piece 1a of the carrying strap 1 is inserted through the sleeve 5 of the closure piece V such that the toothing 2 faces the wall of the container B. The spring member 6 serving to lock the carrying strap 1 is formed on the wall 5a of the sleeve 5 facing the container wall and the fulcrum 7 is formed by a recess at the shoulder of the spring member 6 on the sleeve wall 5a. In the relaxed state, the free end 6 'of the spring member 6 projects into the interior of the sleeve 5 and engages in a tooth gap in the toothing 2 on the end piece 1a of the carrying strap 1 (FIG. 5).

Ein von aussen zugänglicher, jedoch unauffälliger Auslöser ist dem Federglied zugeordnet. Er kann beispielsweise als Drucktaste 9 ausgeführt und in einer Ausnehmung 9a der Hülse 52 eingesetzt sein (Fig. 3a). Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform des Verschlußstücks zeigen die Fig. 3 und 4. Die Rückwand 5a der flachen Hülse 5 weist T-Form auf und an der Unterkante des Querbalkens 5' der T-Form ist zu beiden Seiten des Längsbalkens 5", jedoch frei von diesem, je ein Federglied 6 angeformt und durch einen dünnen Steg 6a mit der Rückwand 5a der Hülse 5 verbunden. Durch diesen Steg 6a wird die Ausnehmung für den Drehpunkt 7 des Federgliedes 6 geschaffen.An externally accessible but inconspicuous trigger is assigned to the spring element. It can be designed, for example, as a pushbutton 9 and inserted in a recess 9a of the sleeve 5 2 (FIG. 3a). A preferred embodiment of the closure piece is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. The rear wall 5a of the flat sleeve 5 has a T-shape and on the lower edge of the crossbeam 5 'of the T-shape is on both sides of the longitudinal bar 5 ", but is free of this , a spring member 6 is formed and connected to the rear wall 5a of the sleeve 5 by a thin web 6a, which creates the recess for the pivot point 7 of the spring member 6.

An den einander abgewandten Seitenkanten der beiden Federglieder 6 der Hülse 5 ist je ein Auslöser in Form einer Lasche 8 angeformt. Diese Laschen 8 stehen nach aussen zu beiden Seiten der Hülse 5 vor, so dass sie von aussen zugänglich sind. Durch die Eigenspannung der Federglieder 6 werden die Laschen 8 der Auslöser nach vorne gedrückt, wenn die Federglieder 6 im entspannten Zustand in Raststellung sind (Fig. 5). Zum Entrasten der Federglieder 6 werden die Laschen 8 nach innen gedrückt, wodurch dann die Federglieder 6 aus dem Eingriff in die Verzahnung 2 am Trageband 1 gelöst werden und dieses nach oben gezogen werden kann.A trigger in the form of a tab 8 is formed on the side edges of the two spring elements 6 of the sleeve 5 facing away from one another. These tabs 8 project outwards on both sides of the sleeve 5, so that they are accessible from the outside. Due to the internal tension of the spring members 6, the tabs 8 of the triggers are pressed forward when the spring members 6 are in the locked position in the relaxed state (FIG. 5). To unlock the spring members 6, the tabs 8 are pressed inward, as a result of which the spring members 6 are then released from engagement with the toothing 2 on the carrying strap 1 and this can be pulled upwards.

Die Rast- und Auslösereinrichtung kann auch in anderer Weise ausgebildet sein. So kann an der Unterkante des Querbalkens 5' der flachen Hülse 5 ein durchgehendes Federglied (nicht dargestellt) angelenkt sein, das die beiden einander zugekehrten Endkanten der beiden als Auslöser dienenden Laschen 8 miteinander verbindet. Aufgrund der Flexibilität des Materials, aus dem die Rast- und Auslösevorrichtung besteht, kann die Verrastung nur durch gleichzeitigen Druck auf beide Laschen 8 gelöst werden.The latching and triggering device can also be designed in a different way. Thus, a continuous spring member (not shown) can be articulated on the lower edge of the crossbar 5 'of the flat sleeve 5, which connects the two mutually facing end edges of the two tabs 8 serving as triggers. Due to the flexibility of the material from which the latching and triggering device is made, the latching can only be released by simultaneously pressing both tabs 8.

Die Verzahnung oder Riffelung (2) am Endstück 1a des Tragebandes 1 kann in verschiedener Weise ausgeführt sein. So kann sie quer über die gesamte Breite des Tragebandes verlaufen, oder lediglich in der Mitte der jeweils entlang der beiden Seitenkanten des Tragebandes angeordnet sein. Der Anordnung der Verzahnung wird das Rastglied und der dazu gehörige Auslöser angepasst. Das Verschlußstück kann auch an beiden Enden des Tragebandes vorgesehen sein.The toothing or corrugation (2) on the end piece 1a of the carrying strap 1 can be carried out in various ways. So it can run across the entire width of the lanyard, or only be arranged in the middle of each along the two side edges of the lanyard. The latching element and the associated trigger are adapted to the arrangement of the toothing. The closure piece can also be provided at both ends of the lanyard.

Die Verzahnung oder Riffelung (2) am Endstück 1a des Tragebandes 1 ist so ausgelegt, dass das Rastglied in der Hülse 5 des Verschlußstücks V das Trageband 1 gegen ein Hochziehen und dabei Freigabe des Deckels D sperrt. Dagegen kann das Endstück 1a und damit das Trageband 1 in entgegengesetzter Richtung, also in eine den Deckel D an den Behälter B drückende Stellung verhältnismässig leicht gezogen werden.The toothing or corrugation (2) on the end piece 1a of the carrying strap 1 is designed so that the locking member in the sleeve 5 of the closure piece V blocks the carrying strap 1 against being pulled up and thereby releasing the cover D. In contrast, the end piece 1a and thus the carrying strap 1 can be pulled relatively easily in the opposite direction, that is to say into a position pressing the cover D against the container B.

Um ein versehentliches Herausziehen des Tragebandes 1 aus dem Verschlußstück V zu verhindern, ist das mit der Verzahnung versehene Ende 3 des Tragebandes 1 verbreitert, und bildet einen Anschlag gegenüber der Hülse 5 des Verschlußstücks V. In dieser Verbreiterung ist zweckmässig ein Griffloch 4 vorgesehen, das die Handhabung des Tragebandes 1 beim Herunterziehen und Anlegen an die Oberseite des Deckels D des Behälters B erleichtert. Wenn das Trageband 1 nach oben gezogen wird, stösst das verbreiterte Ende 3 des Tragebandes 1 an die Unterkante der Hüise 5 des Verschlußstücks V und verhindert eine weitere Aufwärtsbewegung des Tragebandes.In order to prevent inadvertent pulling out of the carrying strap 1 from the closure piece V, the toothed end 3 of the carrying strap 1 is widened and forms a stop relative to the sleeve 5 of the closure piece V. In this widening, a grip hole 4 is expediently provided, which the handling of the lanyard 1 when pulling down and putting on the top of the lid D of the container B facilitated. When the lanyard 1 is pulled upwards, the widened end 3 of the lanyard 1 abuts the lower edge of the sleeve 5 of the closure piece V and prevents the lanyard from moving upward further.
