Definitions

  • the invention relates to a drum with a drum closure provided in a drum wall, comprising an insert and a closure cap which can be placed in the insert, which insert is situated in a collar on the drum wall pointing towards the outside of the drum, and has a first flange which rests against the inside of the drum wall, and a second flange which is flanged radially outwards over the collar, a sealing ring which is wedged between the first flange and the inside of the drum wall to form a first seal, and an additional seal formed either by a sealing ring integral with the first sealing ring or by a separate sealing ring, which additional seal is provided between the collar and the insert lying opposite the collar.
  • Such a drum having a drum closure with a second, additional sealing ring formed integrally with the first sealing ring is known from US-A-3946894.
  • a drum having a drum closure with a second sealing ring which is separate from the first sealing ring is known from GB-A-943148.
  • the sealing action of the sealing rings is maintained as long as they are held firmly clamped between the insert and the collar. However, this clamping action can get lost if the drum falls, topside down, on a hard surface.
  • the insert and collar, which project with respect to the drum wall, are pressed inwards, which results in an increased spacing between the first flange and the drum wall. Thereby, the sealing action of the sealing rings is impaired.
  • the objective of the invention is to provide a drum with a drum closure which offers a better sealing even in case the insert and collar are pressed inwardly.
  • This objective is achieved in that in the area delimited by the outer peripheral edge of the first flange on the one hand, and of the top edge of the collar on the other hand, the insert and the container are in contact only with the sealing rings, in such a way that the sealing action is maintained even if the insert is pressed inward relative to the collar.
  • Figures 1, 2 and 3 show a first embodiment of the drum with drum closure.
  • Figures 4, 5 and 6 show a second embodiment.
  • the drum wall is indicated by 1.
  • An outward pointing collar 2 is formed in this drum wall and connects by means of the recessed wall part 3 to the remainder of drum wall 1.
  • Insert 4 also has a first flange 6 which lies opposite the recessed wall part 3.
  • a sealing ring 7 is provided between said wall part 3 and flange 6.
  • the insert also has an internal screw thread, into which another closing cap, not shown, can be screwed.
  • flange 6 and wall part 3 are pressed towards each other, in the course of which sealing ring 7 is compressed. In that state the flange 5 is flanged over collar 2, with the result that the sealing ring can be held under pre-tension.
  • an additional sealing ring 9 is fitted directly beside the sealing ring 7.
  • the collar 2 is widened a little at the underside.
  • FIG. 4 - 6 has a sealing ring 12 which is in one piece, and which essentially comprises the parts 13 and 14 which correspond to sealing rings 7 and 9 according to Figures 1 - 3.
  • the collar 11 is widened a little at the underside.
