Abstract

The invention concerns a container for ice-cream products, which comprises a tubular body which can be closed at the lower end by a sliding floor (4). The tubular body comprises at least two telescopic tube elements (1 to 3) which, when telescoped, expose the product at the upper end of the container.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Behälter entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a container according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ein bekannter Behälter dieser Art besteht aus einem zylindrischen offenen Rohrstück, in dem ein Schiebeboden angeordnet ist, der in seiner unteren Stellung durch zwei Reihen in Umfangsrichtung verlaufender innerer Vorsprünge normalerweise nach oben und unten arretierbar ist, jedoch bei Beaufschlagung mit einer bestimmten Kraft verschoben werden kann.A known container of this type consists of a cylindrical open tube piece, in which a sliding floor is arranged, which in its lower position can normally be locked up and down by two rows of inner projections extending in the circumferential direction, but can be shifted when a certain force is applied .

Derartige Behälter können nur eine begrenzte Produktmenge aufnehmen, da ab einer bestimmten Länge des Rohrstückes der Boden durch die Finger eines Benutzers nicht mehr über die gesamte Länge des Rohrstückes verschoben werden kann. In diesem Falle muß der Boden dann einen Stil entsprechender Länge zum Verschieben aufweisen, der jedoch beim Verpacken und Lagern stört.Such containers can only hold a limited amount of product, since from a certain length of the pipe section the bottom can no longer be moved by the fingers of a user over the entire length of the pipe section. In this case, the floor must then be of a suitable length for moving, but this is disruptive during packaging and storage.

Ein weiterer Nachteil solch eines Behälters liegt darin, daß der Druck auf den Schiebeboden, der zum Herausschieben des Produktes am oberen Ende des Behälters erforderlich ist, über das gesamte Produkt wirkt und dieses zusammenpreßt. Dies ist vor allem dann von Nachteil, wenn, wie dies häufig der Fall ist, das Produkt mehrere Bestandteile unterschiedlicher Konsistenz enthält, z.B. Eiscreme und Früchte. Diese Bestandteile werden dann durch den Druck miteinander vermischt, was hinsichtlich Geschmack und Aussehen unerwünscht ist.Another disadvantage of such a container is that the pressure on the sliding floor, which is required to push the product out at the upper end of the container, acts on the entire product and compresses it. This is particularly disadvantageous if, as is often the case, the product contains several components of different consistency, e.g. Ice cream and fruits. These ingredients are then mixed together by pressure, which is undesirable in taste and appearance.

Aus FR-A-1 049 134 ist ein Behälter aus mehreren Rohstücken, die teleskopisch verbunden sind, bekannt, Mittels eines am unteren Ende befindlichen Propfens kann die enthaltene Paste herausgedrückt werden.From FR-A-1 049 134 a container of several raw pieces, which are telescopically connected, is known. The paste contained can be pressed out by means of a plug located at the lower end.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, so einen Behälter für Speiseeisprodukte zu schaffen, der es ermöglicht, eine Abgabe des aufgenommenen Produkts am oberen Ende zu ermöglichen, ohne daß das Aussehen des Produktes beeinträchtigt oder dessen Bestandteile vermischt werden.The invention has for its object to provide a container for ice cream products, which makes it possible to dispense the picked up product at the upper end, without affecting the appearance of the product or mixing its components.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe gemäß der Erfindung durch die im kennzeichenden Teil des Ansprüches 1 angegebenen Merkmale. Zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 1. Appropriate embodiments of the invention result from the subclaims.

Bei einem in dieser Weise ausgebildeten Behälter erfolgt die Abgabe des aufgenommenen Speiseeisprodukts dadurch, daß zunächst das obere Rohrstück nach unten geschoben wird. Hierbei wird das aufgenommene Produkt nicht zusammengedrückt, so daß dessen Aussehen nicht geändert und dessen Bestandteile nicht vermischt werden.In the case of a container designed in this way, the ice cream product is dispensed by first pushing the upper tube piece downwards. The absorbed product is not compressed, so that its appearance is not changed and its components are not mixed.

Die einzelnen Rohrstücke, die zweckmäßigerweise aus einem elastischen verformbaren Material bestehen, sind in auseinandergezogener Stellung arretierbar. Hierfür weist jedes Rohrstück im Bereich des unteren Endes innen einen Ringwulst auf, die in eine Ringnut im Bereich des oberen Endes des zugehörigen Rohrstucks einrastbar sind. Zweckmäßigerweise hat auch das unterste Rohrstück im Bereich des unteren Endes einen Ringwulst, der den Schiebeboden hält.The individual pieces of pipe, which expediently consist of an elastic, deformable material, can be locked in an extended position. For this purpose, each pipe section in the area of the lower end has an annular bead which can be snapped into an annular groove in the area of the upper end of the associated pipe piece. Advantageously, the lowest tube section in the region of the lower end also has an annular bead which holds the sliding floor.

Der Schiebeboden kann als Kappe ausgebildet sein, die sich nach oben konisch verjüngen kann und die eine Ringnut aufweisen kann, in die der Ringwulst des untersten Rohrstücks einrasten kann.The sliding floor can be designed as a cap which can taper conically upwards and which can have an annular groove into which the annular bulge of the lowermost tube section can snap.

Zweckmäßigerweise erweitern sich die Rohrstücke am unteren Ende zu einem Bund, so daß beim Zusammenschieben bei einem Behälter mit z.B. drei Rohrstücken und nach Entleeren des obersten Rohrstücks dessen Bund an dem des mittleren Rohrstücks angreift, so daß dieses nach unten geschoben werden kann.Expediently, the pipe sections widen at the lower end to form a collar, so that when pushed together in a container with, for example, three pipe sections and after emptying the uppermost pipe section, its collar on that of the middle Pipe piece attacks so that it can be pushed down.

Der Schiebeboden kann unten einen Stil aufweisen, mittels dem der Schiebeboden verschoben werden kann. Das unterste Rohrstück kann durch einen Boden verschlossen sein, der eine ausreichend große Öffnung hat, um den Schiebeboden verschieben zu können.The sliding floor can have a style at the bottom by means of which the sliding floor can be moved. The bottom tube section can be closed by a floor that has a sufficiently large opening to be able to move the sliding floor.

Wenn das unterste Rohrstück am unteren Ende offen ist, kann es innen einen zusätzlichen Ringwulst aufweisen, so daß der Schiebeboden in seiner unteren Stellung gegen eine Verschiebung nach oben und unten behalten wird.If the lowermost pipe section is open at the lower end, it can have an additional annular bead on the inside, so that the sliding floor is kept in its lower position against upward and downward displacement.

Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand der Figuren 1 und 2 beispielsweise erläutert. Es zeigt:

Fig. 1
in der linken Hälfte in Aufsicht und in der rechten Hälfte im Axialschnitt einen aus drei Rohrstucken bestehenden Behälter in auseinandergezogener Anordnung, und
Fig. 2
einen Querschnitt des zusammengeschobenen Behälters im Bereich des Schiebebodens.
The invention is explained below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, for example. It shows:
Fig. 1
in the left half in supervision and in the right half in axial section a container consisting of three pieces of pipe in an exploded arrangement, and
Fig. 2
a cross section of the collapsed container in the region of the sliding floor.

Der Behälter gemäß der Erfindung besteht aus drei ineinanderschiebbaren zylindrischen Rohrstüken 1 bis 3, von denen das obere Rohrstück 1 einen größeren Durchmesser als das mittlere Rohrstück 2 und dieses wieder einen größeren Durchmesser als das untere Rohrstück 3 hat.The container according to the invention consists of three telescoping cylindrical pipe pieces 1 to 3, of which the upper pipe section 1 has a larger diameter than the middle pipe section 2 and this again has a larger diameter than the lower pipe section 3.

Jedes Rohrstück hat im Bereich des unteren Endes einen inneren Ringwulst 5, der in eine äußere Ringnut 6 im Bereich des oberen Endes des zugehörigen Rohrstücks einrastet. Das obere Rohrstuck benötigt keine derartige Ringnut.Each pipe section has an inner annular bead 5 in the area of the lower end, which extends into an outer annular groove 6 in the area of the upper end of the associated pipe section snaps into place. The upper pipe piece does not require such an annular groove.

Der Ringwulst 5 des unteren Rohrstück 3 hält einen als Kappe ausgebildeten Schiebeboden 4. Alle Rohrstücke erweitern sich am unteren Ende zu einem Bund 7. Beim Zusammenschieben ist dadurch die Verschiebbarkeit des Rohrstücks 1 relativ zum Rohrstück 2 begrenzt, so daß das Rohrstück 2 durch das Rohrstück 1 nach unten geschoben werden kann.The annular bead 5 of the lower pipe section 3 holds a sliding base 4 designed as a cap. All pipe sections widen at the lower end to form a collar 7. When pushed together, the displaceability of the pipe section 1 relative to the pipe section 2 is limited, so that the pipe section 2 through the pipe section 1 can be pushed down.

Am oberen Ende kann der Behälter durch einen Deckel 8 oder ein ähnliches Verschlußelement, wie eine Folie oder derdl., verschlossen sein. Der Deckel kann ebenfalls durch einen Wulst 5, der in eine Ringnut 6 am oberen Rohrstück 1 einrastet, gehalten sein.At the upper end, the container can be closed by a lid 8 or a similar closure element, such as a film or the like. The cover can also be held by a bead 5, which engages in an annular groove 6 on the upper pipe section 1.
