Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plastic bottle crate according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Bottle crates are automatically loaded in bottling plants and breweries, i.e. the bottles are inserted as a whole bundle with gripping elements in their compartments in the box. Empty bottles are automatically removed in the same way.
  • automatic loading it is necessary for the bottles to have a certain freedom of movement in their compartments, which is also necessary because the diameter of the bottles and their roundness can fluctuate within an approved tolerance range.
  • the freedom of movement leads to the bottles hitting the boundary walls during transport on, for example, trucks. This creates unnecessary noise and the bottles in the stop area also wear out, causing unsightly damage. Bottle labels are particularly at risk here.
  • a bottle crate made of plastic which has several compartments for holding bottles.
  • the inner walls of the bottle crate have elastic fixing elements which end freely above the bottle bottom and are not connected to it.
  • the known fixation elements are composed of individual wall parts and form a truncated cone or pyramid. It is to be regarded as a disadvantage that the side of the fixing element facing the top of the bottle crate has such a large cross section that bottles inserted transversely or offset can damage the fixing elements consisting of individual wall parts, since the individual wall parts tear when the bottles are inserted or even from the compartment wall can be demolished.
  • the preamble of claim 1 corresponds to this prior art.
  • a cone is arranged approximately in the middle of the compartment wall.
  • a pair of cones can also be formed on the partition walls. It is sufficient for the cones to be arranged only on the compartment walls running in the longitudinal direction of the box or only on the transverse walls of the box. Even then, because of the paired arrangement of the cones, the bottles are prevented from moving in both mutually perpendicular directions.
  • the cones each have at least one longitudinal slot in the region of the compartments, which ends in front of the cone tip.
  • the cones then each have a longitudinal slot in the area of the two adjacent compartments.
  • the bottle crate made of plastic shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is divided into compartments for the only indicated bottles 2 in the usual way by internal compartment walls 1 running in the longitudinal and transverse directions of the crate.
  • the compartment walls 1 intersect at intersection points 3 and adjoin the box outer walls 4, which are shown in section in the right part of FIG. 1.
  • Hollow corner pillars 5 are provided in the box corners in the usual way for stiffening the box.
  • the box bottom is also formed in a known manner by a circumferential stacking edge 6 and ribs 7. Cutouts 8 of the stacking edge 6 also enable staggered stacking of boxes.
  • the compartment walls 1 have cutouts 9 which extend from the floor upwards and which serve in a known manner to save weight and provide better cleaning options.
  • the compartment walls 1 running in the longitudinal direction of the box have centering or clamping members in the lower region in the form of hollow cones 10 which are open to the floor, only one cone being provided in the edge region and pairs of cones each in the region of the middle compartments.
  • the cones 10 each protrude into adjacent compartments and hold the bottles 2 set there in the region of their base.
  • FIG. 3 shows such a cone 10 in more detail.
  • the cones 10 each have longitudinal slots 12 extending from the bottom in the area of each compartment. 5 shows more precisely that a longitudinal section 12 is present in the area of each compartment.
  • the section is made such that it runs through a slot in the left part and outside a slot in the right part.
  • the cone 10 is formed in the compartment wall 1 and is integrally formed with it.
  • the rounded bottom of the bottle slides down from the rounded tip of the cones 10 protruding into the compartment to the cylindrical part of the cones 10.
  • the walls of the cones 10 become resilient and with the narrowing of the gaps 12 in the direction of the compartment wall 1 pushed and hold the bottles 2 securely.
  • a single cone 10 is sufficient in the corner compartments because the bottle 2 is held on the side opposite the cone by the rounded inner wall of the corner column 5.
  • the bottle is held by two cones 10 in cooperation with the outer wall. There are four cones or cone halves in each of the inner compartments that define bottle 2.
  • compartment walls 1 which in the region of their intersections 3 have cutouts on the bottom, form compartments for the bottles 2.
  • Cones 21 are formed in the center of the lower part of the compartment walls 1, which, as shown in FIG. 6, deform resiliently inwards when a bottle is adjusted.
  • the cones 21 have an elliptical cross section, and their wall thickness is such that the Desired clamping force with not too high insertion resistance results.
  • the cones 21 are formed in the compartment walls 1 and formed in one piece with them.
