Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Transport- und/oder Lagerbehälter aus Außenbehälter und Innenbehälter in Form einer Blase aus thermoplastischem Kunststoff, die elastisch verformbar ist, wobei der Außenbehälter einen Behältermantel aus Stahlstäben, insbesondere Rundstahlstäben, und einen Außenbehälterboden aufweist, der Innenbehälter im Bereich seines Innenbehälterbodens eine Entleerungseinrichtung mit Entleerungsstutzen besitzt und der Innenbehälter mit einem Auslaufboden versehen ist, der sich im gefüllten Zustand des Innenbehälters unter elastischer Verformung auf den auslauffördernden Außenbehälterboden auflegt sowie so eingerichtet ist, daß in einem teilentleerten Zustand des Innenbehälters die Bodenfläche bzw. Bodenflächenbereiche des Innenbehälters sich rückfedernd einstellen. Der Außenbehälterboden kann ebenfalls aus Stahlstäben bestehen. Insbesondere können der Behältermantel und der Außenbehälterboden aus sich kreuzenden Stahlstäben bestehen, die an den Kreuzungspunkten miteinander verschweißt sind. Der Außenbehälterboden kann aber auch als Palette ausgeführt sein, die z. B. aus Holz bestehen kann. In diesem Falle ist der Behältermantel an die Palette angeschlossen. Füllstücke oder Formteile können zwischen dem Innenbehälter- und dem Außenbehälterboden angeordnet sein und gelten im Rahmen der Erfindung als Bestandteil des Außenbehälterbodens, an dem sie regelmäßig auch befestigt sind.The invention relates to a transport and / or storage container made of an outer container and an inner container in the form of a bladder made of thermoplastic material, which is elastically deformable, the outer container having a container jacket made of steel rods, in particular round steel rods, and an outer container bottom, the inner container in the region of its inner container bottom Has emptying device with emptying nozzle and the inner container is provided with an outlet base which, when the inner container is filled, rests on the outlet-promoting outer container base with elastic deformation and is set up in such a way that the bottom surface or bottom surface areas of the inner container adjust resiliently when the inner container is partially emptied . The outer container bottom can also consist of steel rods. In particular, the container jacket and the outer container base can consist of intersecting steel rods which are welded to one another at the crossing points. The outer container bottom can also be designed as a pallet, the z. B. can consist of wood. In this case the container jacket is connected to the pallet. Filling pieces or molded parts can be arranged between the inner container bottom and the outer container bottom and are considered within the scope of the invention as part of the outer container bottom, to which they are also regularly attached.

Bei dem bekannten Transport- und Lagerbehälter, von dem die Erfindung ausgeht (FR-A-2 573 388), ist der Innenbehälter in der Bodenmitte mit einer mit einem geringen Gefälle in Richtung auf die Entleerungseinrichtung ausgestatteten Ablaufrinne versehen. Diese Ablaufrinne liegt zwischen zwei Bodenbrettern einer ebenen Holzpalette. Weiterhin ist der Innenbehälterboden beidseitig mit einem geringen Gefälle zu dieser Ablaufrinne hin ausgeführt. Damit dieser Auslaufboden eben auf der Palette liegen kann, sind in gewissen Abständen in Richtung auf die Ablaufrinne hin verlaufende Sicken vorgesehen. In gefülltem Zustand legt sich der Boden auch zwischen den Sicken flach auf die Palette auf. Im geleerten Zustand stellt sich die gesamte Bodenfläche wieder in ihre ursprüngliche Formgebung zurück. So läßt sich das gewünschte Ablaufgefälle zur Ablaufrinne hin bilden. Die beschriebenen Maßnahmen sind jedoch in fertigungstechnischer Hinsicht verhältnismäßig aufwendig. Im übrigen bedeuten die Sicken eine Vergrößerung der Oberfläche des Innenbehälterbodens, so daß in störendem Maße Restmengen einer eingefüllten Flüssigkeit durch Adhäsion festgehalten werden können.In the known transport and storage container from which the invention is based (FR-A-2 573 388), the inner container is provided in the center of the bottom with a drainage channel which is provided with a slight slope in the direction of the emptying device. This drainage channel lies between two floor boards of a flat wooden pallet. Furthermore, the bottom of the inner container is made on both sides with a slight slope to this gutter. In order for this outlet floor to lie flat on the pallet, beads are provided at certain intervals in the direction of the drainage channel. When filled, the floor also lies flat on the pallet between the beads. When empty, the entire floor area returns to its original shape. In this way, the desired drainage gradient can be formed towards the drainage channel. However, the measures described are relatively complex in terms of production technology. Otherwise, the beads mean an enlargement of the surface of the inner container bottom, so that residual quantities of a filled liquid can be held in place by adhesion.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Transport- und/oder Lagerbehälter des eingangs beschriebenen Aufbaues so auszubilden, daß die beschriebenen, zur Ablaufrinne hin verlaufenden Sicken und die Ablaufrinne der bekannten Gestaltung nicht mehr erforderlich sind und eine sehr vollständige Entleerung erreicht werden kann.The invention has for its object to provide a transport and / or storage container of the structure described above so that the described, extending towards the gutter and the gutter of the known design are no longer required and a very complete emptying can be achieved can.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe lehrt die Erfindung, daß der Außenbehälterboden zum Bereich des Entleerungsstutzens des Innenbehälters hin auslauffördernd mit gegen die Horizontale geneigten Schrägflächen ausgeführt ist und seinen tiefsten Punkt im Bereich des Entleerungsstutzens aufweist, und daß der Innenbehälter eine Bodenfläche bzw. Bodenflächenbereiche aufweist, deren Neigungswinkel gegen die Horizontale im teilentleerten bzw. entleerten Zustand des Innenbehälters größer ist als der entsprechende Neigungswinkel am auslauffördernden Außenbehälterboden.To achieve this object, the invention teaches that the outer container bottom is designed to promote discharge towards the emptying nozzle of the inner container with inclined surfaces inclined against the horizontal and has its lowest point in the region of the emptying nozzle, and that the inner container has a bottom surface or bottom surface regions whose angle of inclination against the horizontal in the partially emptied or emptied state of the inner container is greater than the corresponding angle of inclination on the outlet-promoting outer container base.

Das läßt sich im einzelnen auf verschiedene Weise verwirklichen. Insbesondere kann der Außenbehälterboden insoweit gleichsam trichterförmig mit sehr flachem Trichterwinkel gestaltet sein, wobei der Trichterauslauf sich im Bereich des Entleerungsstutzens befindet.This can be achieved in various ways. In particular, the outer container bottom can be designed as it were funnel-shaped with a very flat funnel angle, the funnel outlet being located in the region of the emptying nozzle.

Es besteht aber auch die Möglichkeit, die Anordnung so zu treffen, daß der auslauffördernde Außenbehälterboden in der Draufsicht im wesentlichen Y-förmige Biegebereiche aufweist, in denen die Stahlstäbe des Außenbehälterbodens zur auslauffördernden Form umgebogen sind, wobei der Y-Steg zum Entleerungsstutzen hin geneigt verläuft. Eine andere Ausführungsform ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der auslauffördernde Außenbehälterboden eine umgekehrt firstförmige Gestalt besitzt, deren Firstlänge zum Bereich des Entleerungsstutzens hin geneigt verläuft. - Wenn im Rahmen der Erfindung davon gesprochen wird, daß der Außenbehälterboden besonders gestaltet ist, so ist darunter zu verstehen, daß die Stahlstäbe, aus denen der Außenbehälterboden zusammengesetzt ist, entsprechend geformt sind. Das kann leicht und mit einfachen Werkzeugen durch Biegen geschehen und ist einfacher als die Verformung eines entsprechenden Blechteils. Es ist darunter aber auch zu verstehen, daß entsprechend gestaltete Zwischenstücke oder Formteile zwischen einer Palette und dem Innenbehälter angeordnet sind.But there is also the possibility to make the arrangement so that the outlet-promoting outer container bottom has, in plan view, essentially Y-shaped bending areas in which the steel rods of the outer container bottom are bent over to the outlet-promoting shape, the Y-web being inclined towards the emptying nozzle . Another embodiment is characterized in that the outlet-promoting outer container bottom has an inverted ridge-shaped shape, the ridge length of which slopes towards the region of the emptying nozzle. - If it is spoken in the context of the invention that the outer container bottom is specially designed, it is to be understood as meaning that the steel rods from which the outer container bottom is composed are shaped accordingly. This can be done easily and with simple tools by bending and is easier than the deformation of a corresponding sheet metal part. It is also to be understood, however, that appropriately designed intermediate pieces or molded parts are arranged between a pallet and the inner container.

Die erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform ist vorteilhaft, weil die Bauhöhe dieses Transport- und/oder Lagerbehälters nicht in störender Weise beeinträchtigt wird. Im gefüllten Zustand füllt der Innenbehälter das gesamte Volumen aus, seine Rückfederung wird in vorteilhafter Weise zur Verbesserung des Auslaufens und der Vollentleerung ausgenutzt, weil steile Auslauf- oder Ablaufflächen entstehen.The embodiment according to the invention is advantageous because the overall height of this transport and / or storage container is not adversely affected. When filled, the inner container fills the entire volume, its springback is advantageously used to improve the leakage and full emptying, because steep discharge or drainage surfaces are created.

Der in den Figuren dargestellte Transport- und/oder Lagerbehälter besteht aus einem Außenbehälter 1 und einem Innenbehälter 2 in Form einer Blase aus thermoplastischem Kunststoff, die elastisch verformbar ist. Der Außenbehälter 1 besitzt einen Behältermantel 3 und einen Außenbehälterboden 4 aus sich kreuzenden Stahlstäben 5. Es handelt sich dabei vorzugsweise um Rundstahlstäbe. Die Stahlstäbe 5 sind an den Kreuzungsstellen und an Verbindungsstellen miteinander verschweißt. Der Innenbehälter 2 besitzt im Bereich seines Innenbehälterbodens 6 eine Entleerungseinrichtung, z. B. in Form einer Rinne 7, an die sich der Entleerungsstutzen 8 mit Ventil 9 oder dergleichen anschließt.The transport and / or storage container shown in the figures consists of an outer container 1 and an inner container 2 in the form of a bubble made of thermoplastic material, which is elastically deformable. The outer container 1 has a container jacket 3 and an outer container bottom 4 made of intersecting steel rods 5. These are preferably round steel rods. The steel rods 5 are welded together at the crossing points and at connecting points. The inner container 2 has Area of its inner container bottom 6 an emptying device, for. B. in the form of a gutter 7, to which the drain port 8 with valve 9 or the like connects.

Insbesondere aus einer vergleichenden Betrachtung der Fig. 2 bis 4 entnimmt man, daß der Außenbehälterboden 4 zum Bereich des Entleerungsstutzens 8 des Innenbehälters 2 hin als auslauffördernder Außenbehälterboden 4 mit gegen die Horizontale geneigten Schrägflächen ausgeführt ist, der seinen tiefsten Punkt im Bereich des Entleerungsstutzens 8 aufweist. Der Innenbehälter 2 ist mit einem entsprechend ausgeformten Auslaufboden 6 versehen. Aus der Fig. 2 entnimmt man, daß der auslauffördernde Außenbehälterboden 4 in der Draufsicht im wesentlichen Y-förmige Biegebereiche 10 aufweist, in denen die Stahlstäbe 5 des Außenbehälterbodens 4 zur auslauffördernden Form umgebogen sind, wobei der Y-Steg zum Entleerungsstutzen 8 hin geneigt verläuft. Bei der Ausführungsform nach Fig. 3 ist der auslauffördernde Außenbehälterboden 4 mit einer umgekehrt firstförmigen Gestalt versehen, deren Firstlinie 11 zum Bereich des Entleerungsstutzens 8 hin geneigt verläuft.In particular, from a comparative examination of FIGS. 2 to 4, it can be seen that the outer container bottom 4 is designed towards the area of the emptying nozzle 8 of the inner container 2 as an outlet-promoting outer container bottom 4 with inclined surfaces inclined towards the horizontal, which has its lowest point in the region of the emptying nozzle 8 . The inner container 2 is provided with a correspondingly shaped outlet base 6. From Fig. 2 it can be seen that the outlet-promoting outer container bottom 4 has in plan view substantially Y-shaped bending areas 10, in which the steel rods 5 of the outer container bottom 4 are bent to the outlet-promoting shape, the Y-web being inclined towards the emptying nozzle 8 . In the embodiment according to FIG. 3, the outlet-promoting outer container base 4 is provided with an inverted ridge-shaped shape, the ridge line 11 of which slopes towards the area of the emptying nozzle 8.

Von besonderer Bedeutung ist die Ausführungsform, die man bei einer vergleichenden Betrachtung der Fig. 3 und 4 erkennt. Der Auslaufboden 6 des Innenbehälters 2 besitzt hier eine Bodenfläche bzw. Bodenflächenbereiche, deren Neigungswinkel 12 gegen die Horizontale im teilentleerten oder entleerten Zustand des Innenbehälters 2 größer ist als der entsprechende Neigungswinkel 12 am auslauffördernden Außenbehälterboden 4. Die Anordnung und die Auslegung sind so getroffen, daß der Auslaufboden 6 sich im gefüllten Zustand des Innenbehälters 2 unter elastischer Verformung auf den auslauffördernden Außenbehälterboden 4 auflegt. Er ist so eingerichtet, daß im teilentleerten Zustand des Innenbehälters 2 der größere Neigungswinkel 12 der Bodenfläche bzw. der Bodenflächenbereiche des Auslaufbodens 6 am Innenbehälter 2 sich, zurückfedernd, einstellt. Das bedeutet, daß insoweit die Auslaufförderung infolge des größeren Neigungswinkels 12 besonders intensiv ist, so daß auch Flüssigkeiten mit hoher Viskosität verhältnismäßig schnell auslaufen. Der auslauffördernde Außenbehälterboden 4 besitzt im Bereich der Entleerungseinrichtung 7 eine rinnenförmige Ausbildung 14, in die sich die Entleerungseinrichtung 7 des Innenbehälters 2 einlegt. - Es versteht sich, daß der Außenbehälterboden wie beschrieben auch durch Formteile gestaltet sein kann, die mit einer Palette verbunden sind.Of particular importance is the embodiment that can be seen when comparing FIGS. 3 and 4. The outlet bottom 6 of the inner container 2 here has a bottom surface or bottom surface regions whose angle of inclination 12 relative to the horizontal in the partially emptied or emptied state of the inner container 2 is greater than the corresponding angle of inclination 12 on the outlet-promoting outer container bottom 4. The arrangement and design are such that the outlet base 6 lies on the outer container base 4, which promotes the outlet, in the filled state of the inner container 2 with elastic deformation. It is set up in such a way that in the partially emptied state of the inner container 2, the larger angle of inclination 12 of the bottom surface or the bottom surface regions of the outlet base 6 on the inner container 2 is set back, springing back. This means that the discharge is particularly intensive due to the larger angle of inclination 12, so that liquids with high viscosity leak relatively quickly. The outlet-promoting outer container base 4 has a channel-shaped design 14 in the region of the emptying device 7, into which the emptying device 7 of the inner container 2 is inserted. - It goes without saying that the outer container bottom can also be designed as described by molded parts which are connected to a pallet.
