Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closed serving container for liquids, in particular condensed milk, with a hollow base made of plastic, in the top of which a receptacle is provided, and whose downwardly extending container walls run out into an approximately horizontal, circumferential bottom flange which forms a filling opening of the Surrounds the container and to which a bottom which closes the filling opening and is adapted to the plan of the container is fastened.
  • the container is filled with the bottom removed.
  • the base also consists of a plastic which has approximately the same thickness as the wall material.
  • this plastic floor is made using ultrasonic welding Bottom flange connected. This process is relatively difficult to use and requires expensive machines. It is also possible to glue the floor in place, but this is even more complex and often does not meet the high tightness requirements.
  • handle part and pouring part are molded into the container wall, whereby the filling volume of the container can be increased, but on the other hand there are dead corners in the container which make it difficult to clean the container beforehand, which has a negative effect on the durability of the condensed milk can. Pouring out the milk is also difficult in the known container.
  • the bottom is formed in several parts by a heat sealable, sealing the filling opening sealing film is sealed on the bottom flange, the outside of which is covered by a rigid plastic lid held on the bottom flange.
  • a particularly simple fastening of the plastic cover to the base flange is obtained if an apron, which extends downward and surrounds the external periphery of the plastic cover and into which the plastic cover is clamped, adjoins the outer periphery of the base flange.
  • an inward circumferential locking shoulder is formed on the lower inner edge of the apron, which engages under the outer ring of the plastic cover. This allows for a particularly simple assembly of the plastic cover, and above all it ensures that the end consumer avoids removing the plastic cover.
  • the plastic lid cannot be recognized as such, since the outer edge is covered by the inward-facing locking shoulder of the apron. it would also be possible to attach detents distributed over the circumference that could similarly ensure the holding function, but then the outer edge of the plastic cover would be recognizable under certain circumstances.
  • the plastic cover is S-shaped in cross-section in the outer edge area, the lower part of the S-shape forming a circumferential standing bead and the upper part of the S-shape forming the outer edge of the plastic cover, which lies against the base flange and the contour of the Apron to rest shoulder follows. Since the riot bead extends below the lower edge of the apron, it is e.g. B. possible to design the container in two colors by giving the plastic lid a different color than the base body of the serving container. The riot bead also stiffens the plastic cover. At the same time, the radially elastic compliance of the cover is achieved through the cross-section S-shaped outer edge area, which facilitates the insertion of the plastic cover into the apron.
  • the central region of the plastic cover is arranged at a distance from the film. On the one hand, this protects the heat-sealable film even better; on the other hand, this space between the film and the plastic lid achieves a certain insulating effect, which ensures that even if only small amounts of milk are left in the serving container and the serving container is on the table for a long time, the temperature of the milk rises less strongly, than with conventional serving containers, so that the milk stays fresh longer.
  • the heat-sealable film is designed as a plastic-clad metal film, in particular aluminum film.
  • plastic-clad metal film in particular aluminum film.
  • composite films that have been used in the disposable container area for a long time.
  • the handling of the serving container when pouring out the condensed milk is made considerably easier if the presentable removal opening in the top of the base body is at least partially surrounded by a pouring rim which forms a pouring spout and extends upwards beyond the top side of the base body.
  • the pouring spout is separated from the tear-open removal opening, so that a uniform pouring stream can always be formed which is completely unaffected by whether the removal opening is torn open or whether burrs have remained there. Since these improved pouring properties also occur when the bottom is closed in a different way, independent protection is sought for the special design and arrangement of the pouring rim.
  • the pouring rim is arranged in the edge region of the upper side, where it merges into the container walls, the pouring rim encloses a relatively large area, which creates a pouring situation which comes very close to conventional milk jugs made of porcelain or the like.
  • the pouring properties are further improved if the tear-open removal opening is arranged in the region of the pouring spout and is delimited by two interconnected weakening lines which run in the material of the upper side and which end on the edge side of the removal opening facing away from the pouring spout into a common pivot hinge line oriented transversely to the pouring spout .
  • This is associated with a further advantage that the removal opening can be reclosed.
  • the removal opening is only opened in the area of the two lines of weakness.
  • the swivel hinge line running transversely to this end is also weakened with respect to the material of the upper side, but it is thicker than the weakened lines intended to be torn open.
  • a tear ring is also attached between the lines of weakness in the area of the tip of the tear-open removal opening.
  • the base body of the container is formed essentially from two truncated cones arranged one above the other, the inner sides of the container inner walls enclosing the cavity being essentially rotationally symmetrical to the vertical axis of the container.
  • the base body of the container is formed essentially from two truncated cones arranged one above the other, the inner sides of the container inner walls enclosing the cavity being essentially rotationally symmetrical to the vertical axis of the container.
  • the interior is more easily accessible for flushing and cleaning if the upper truncated cone is more inclined to the horizontal than the lower truncated cone.
  • the upper edge of the pouring rim lies essentially in a common plane which is parallel to the bottom surface of the container. In this way it is possible to stack the containers that are open on the bottom into one another without having to pay attention to the orientation of the containers about their vertical axis.
  • the upper container is supported with the upper inside of the lower truncated cone on the From the top edge of the pouring rim of the container below.
  • a handle is attached to the side of the hollow base body facing away from the pouring spout, the upper edge of which lies in the same plane as the upper edge of the pouring rim. Particularly when the pouring rim is not guided through 360 °, the top edge of the handle together with the top edge of the pouring rim provides uniform support for the stacked containers.
  • the serving container consists of an essentially hollow base made of plastic.
  • the base body is made up of two truncated cones 1 and 2 arranged one above the other, the upper truncated cone 1 having a much smaller average diameter than the lower truncated cone 2.
  • the angle of inclination ⁇ of the upper truncated cone is 15 ° and is therefore somewhat larger than the inclination of the lower truncated cone 2.
  • a tear-open removal opening 4 is provided in the essentially horizontal, flat upper side 3 of the upper truncated cone 1.
  • the removal opening 4, as can be seen more clearly from FIG. 2, is surrounded by a pouring rim 5, which runs forward into a pouring spout 6.
  • the pouring rim 5 is arranged on the outer edge of the top 3, where the top 3 merges into the container walls 7 sloping downwards.
  • the pouring spout 6 diametrically opposite a handle 8 is provided on the top of the lower truncated cone 2 and on the outer wall of the upper truncated cone 1.
  • the upper edge 9 of the handle 8 and the upper edge 10 of the pouring rim 5 lie in a common, also horizontal plane.
  • the radial extension of the handle 8 and the pouring rim 5 goes so far that the handle 8 and the pouring rim 5 are still within the upwardly extended lateral surface of the lower truncated cone 2.
  • the removal opening 4 is delimited by two weakening lines 11 tapering towards one another in the direction of the pouring spout 6.
  • the lines of weakness 11 are connected to a transverse pivot hinge line 12.
  • the lines of weakness 11 and the swivel hinge line 12 differ in essentially only in that the material thickness in the area of the weakening lines is less than in the area of the swivel hinge line.
  • a tear ring 13 known per se is attached on the spout 6 facing tip of the triangle formed by the weakening lines 11 and the pivot hinge line 12. With this ring, the triangle can be torn open beginning at the tip and then along the weakening lines 11 without the pivoting hinge line 12 running transversely thereto being damaged. This triangle can thus be used to reclose the removal opening by simply pivoting it back.
  • the container walls 7 run down into a radially outwardly extending, approximately horizontal, circumferential bottom flange 14 which surrounds a filling opening of the container.
  • This filling opening of the container is closed by a bottom adapted to the plan of the container.
  • This bottom is made of several parts and consists of a heat-sealable film 15 which is sealed onto the bottom flange 14 and seals the filling opening, and of a rigid plastic cover 16 which covers the film downwards.
  • the heat-sealable film is a commonly used aluminum composite film in this exemplary embodiment.
  • the outer edge 19 is also slightly frustoconical.
  • the lower part of the S-shape is designed as a circumferential standing bead 20 which extends below the lower edge of the apron 17 and on which the container stands.
  • the middle region of the cover 16 is arranged offset upwards with respect to the lower edge of the riot bead, but spaced from the underside of the film 15. This not only improves the protective function of the lid, at the same time creates an air space that contributes to the insulation of the floor.
  • the S-shaped design of the outer edge region of the cover 16 not only increases its torsional rigidity, but also allows a certain radially elastic compliance, which facilitates the insertion of the cover 16 into the apron 17.
  • the inner cavity of the container is essentially rotationally symmetrical about the vertical axis of the container.
  • the container itself, as well as the plastic lid 16, can be manufactured by injection molding.
  • Fig. 1 it is indicated how the containers can be stacked one inside the other. The containers can be stacked without having to pay particular attention to the orientation of the containers about their vertical axis.
  • the containers When the containers are then to be filled, they are removed from the stack and turned so that the bottom side faces upwards.
  • the container is rotated in this way from above, after which the film 15 is then sealed onto the bottom flange 14.
  • the plastic cover 16 is then inserted into the apron so that its outer edge 19 engages behind the locking shoulder 18. It is then no longer possible to remove the plastic cover 16.
  • the serving container filled in this way then goes to the trade and from there to the end user.
  • the serving container is ready to serve, ie it can be placed on the table without having to be transferred to another container. If you want to use the container, you open the removal opening 4 by pulling the tear ring 13 upwards. As a result, the approximately triangular removal opening 4 is opened.
  • the container can now be handled like a normal porcelain milk jug by gripping the handle 8 and pouring the milk in the container into a coffee cup or the like. The milk first emerges from the removal opening 4 and, bound by the pouring rim 5, reaches the pouring spout 6.
  • the not completely emptied container which is usually kept in the refrigerator, can be reclosed, since the triangle delimited by the lines of weakness 11 and closing the removal opening 4 can be pivoted back until it lies in the plane of the upper side 3. This allows a opened milk container to be kept in the refrigerator for some time without the milk spoiling.
