Abstract

Bunghole-equipped barrel of a synthetic resin with a blow-molded sidewall with a bottom, and with a lid made of a plastic injection-molded component with integrally molded-on bungholes. The lid (4) has a central, trough-like indentation (9) which in a substantially upended position (1') of the barrel (1), forms a shallow drainage dome (10) sloping downward toward the bunghole orifices (7, 8). The lid (4) has an outer ring (12) having an L-profile serving as a supporting ring, carrying ring, and roller chime, projecting past the bungholes (5, 6) in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis (11-11) of the barrel. Ridges (15, 16) extend from the lid (4) at a spacing around the bungholes (5, 6) and have the same height (17) as the outer ring (12) for protecting the bungholes (5, 6) and for supporting a stacked barrel.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft Spundfässer aus Kunststoff, mit einem Mantelteil, einem Boden und einem Deckel mit einstückig angeformten Spunden und einer mittigen, muldenartigen Vertiefung, die bei Kopflage bzw. angenäherter Kopflage des Fasses eine zu den Spundöffnungen hin abfallende, flache Ablaufwölbung bildet, sowie mit einem über die Spunde in Richtung der Faßlängachse vorstehenden Außenring als Stütz-, Trage- und Rollring.The invention relates to plastic sheet piling, with a jacket part, a bottom and a lid with integrally molded bung and a central, trough-like depression, which forms a flat drainage curvature falling towards the bung openings when the barrel is at the top or near the top, and with a over the bung in the direction of the barrel longitudinal axis protruding outer ring as a support, carrying and rolling ring.

Bei aus der DE-A-2 219 519 bekannten Spundfässern der gattungsgemäßen Art sammelt sich das Regenwasser im Deckel. Ein weiterer Nachteil dieser Fässer ist deren ungenügende Stapelsicherheit.In the case of bung drums of the generic type known from DE-A-2 219 519, the rainwater collects in the lid. Another disadvantage of these barrels is their insufficient stacking security.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, das gattungsgemäße Spundfaß derart weiterzuentwickeln, daß sich kein Regenwasser im Deckel ansammeln kann und die Stapelsicherheit des Fasses verbessert wird.The invention has for its object to develop the generic bung barrel in such a way that no rainwater can accumulate in the lid and the stacking security of the barrel is improved.

Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch ein Spundfaß mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1.This object is achieved by a bung with the features of claim 1.

Das erfindungsgemäße Spundfaß zeichnet sich dadurch aus, die gestellte Aufgabe auf einfache und zweckmäßige Weise zu lösen.The bung barrel according to the invention is characterized in that the object is achieved in a simple and expedient manner.

Die Erfindung ist nachstehend anhand von zwei in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen naher erläutert. Es zeigt

Das aus Kunststoff hergestellte Spundfaß 1 besteht aus einem Mantelteil 2, einem Boden 3 und einem Deckel 4, wobei Mantelteil 2 und Boden 3 einteilig geblasen sind und der als Kunststoff-Spritzteil gefertigte Deckel 4 mit dem Mantelteil 2 bei 2a über den Umfang verschweißt ist.The bung 1 made of plastic consists of a jacket part 2, a bottom 3 and a lid 4, wherein the jacket part 2 and bottom 3 are blown in one piece and the lid 4 made as a molded plastic part is welded to the jacket part 2 at 2a over the circumference.

Der Deckel 4 weist zwei diametral gegenüberliegende, einstückig angeformte Spunde 5, 6 auf, die für einen Schraubverschluß eingerichtet sind und Spundöffnungen 7, 8 bilden, die mit entsprechenden Schraubstopfen verschlossen werden können.The lid 4 has two diametrically opposed, integrally formed bung 5, 6, which are set up for a screw closure and form bung openings 7, 8, which can be closed with appropriate screw plugs.

Der Deckel 4 hat eine mittige, muldenartige Vertiefung 9, die bei Kopflage 1′ bzw. angenäherter Kopflage des Fasses 1 gemäß Fig. 4 zur Restentleerung eine zu den Spundöffnungen 7, 8 hin abfallende, flache Ablaufwölbung 10 für die Restflüssigkeit bildet.The lid 4 has a central, trough-like recess 9, which at the top position 1 'or approximate top position of the barrel 1 according to FIG.

Ein am Umfang des Deckels 4 angeordneter, über die Spunde 5, 6 in Richtung der Faßlängsachse 11-11 vorstehender Außenring 12 mit einem L-Profil dient als die Spunde 5, 6 gegen Beschädigungen schützender Stützring zum Aufsetzen eines Fasses, als Tragering zum Anfassen für den Greifer eines Transportmittels und als Rollring.An on the circumference of the lid 4, over the bung 5, 6 in the direction of the barrel longitudinal axis 11-11 projecting outer ring 12 with an L-profile serves as the bung 5, 6 against damage protective support ring for placing a barrel, as a support ring for touching the gripper of a means of transport and as a rolling ring.

Aus der mittigen Vertiefung 9 des Deckels 4 führt eine flache Ablaufrinne 13 für Regenwasser in radialer Richtung durch den Außenring 12 nach außen. Zusätzlich sind über den Umfang des Außenringes 12 verteilte Ablauföffnungen 14 vorgesehen (Fign. 2 und 3).From the central recess 9 of the cover 4, a flat drainage channel 13 for rainwater leads radially through the outer ring 12 to the outside. In addition, drain openings 14 are provided over the circumference of the outer ring 12 (FIGS. 2 and 3).

Vom Außenring 12 des Deckels 4 verlaufen mit Abstand um die Spunde 5, 6 Schutzstege 15, 16, die die gleiche Höhe 17 wie der Außenring 12 aufweisen und als Stützstege für ein gestapeltes Faß dienen.From the outer ring 12 of the cover 4 run at a distance around the bung 5, 6 protective webs 15, 16, which have the same height 17 as the outer ring 12 and serve as support webs for a stacked barrel.

Bei der in Fig. 5 dargestellten Deckelausführung weisen die Schutz- und Stützstege 15, 16 für die Spunde 5, 6 Unterbrechungen 18 im Bereich des Außenringes 12 auf, damit die Greifer eines Transportmittels über den ganzen Umfang an dem Außenring 12 ungehindert angreifen können.In the cover design shown in FIG. 5, the protective and support webs 15, 16 for the bung 5, 6 have interruptions 18 in the region of the outer ring 12 so that the grippers of a means of transport can attack the outer ring 12 unhindered over the entire circumference.

Bei einer weiteren Deckelausführung entfallen die Schutzstege 15, 16 für die Spunde 5, 6.In a further cover design, the protective webs 15, 16 for the bumps 5, 6 are omitted.

In der Kopflage 1′ bzw. angenäherten Kopflage des Fasses 1 läuft die Restflüssigkeit über die Ablaufwölbung 10 des Deckels 4 und die Spundöffnungen 7, 8 nach außen in einen Auffangbehälter 19 (Fig. 4).In the top position 1 'or approximate top position of the barrel 1, the residual liquid runs through the drain arch 10 of the cover 4 and the bung openings 7, 8 to the outside in a collecting container 19 (Fig. 4).
