Definitions
- the invention relates to a bottle crate according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Bottle crates of this type are used for the transport and storage of beverage bottles in particular.
- the plastic bottles which have become increasingly widespread in recent times, in particular the light PET bottles, pose an additional problem compared to the transport of relatively heavy glass bottles, namely that they are very easily transported by the wind when transported on the loading area of a truck, can be lifted out of the bottle crate by vibrations or the interaction of both.
- a generic bottle crate is known from WO-A-92 16416 (see FIGS. 1-9).
- this preferably has cavities arranged in a square grid, which are separated from one another by separating elements and / or webs, each cavity having a rigid or elastically expandable or deformable constriction on the inside wall, by means of which an inserted bottle in the region of its shoulder or in Transition area of the bottle body to the bottle neck is held.
- Another generic bottle crate is known from DE-A-38 01 224 (see FIGS. 5-8) and has elastic clamping elements. These are designed as tongues protruding downwards, bent outwards and then downwards on separating columns made of two crossed tabs projecting from the floor or fastened laterally to a truss cross. Their job is to prevent twisting of glass bottles transported in the bottle crate and to ensure that the labels on the bottles face a window in the side wall of the bottle crate and thus remain visible from the outside. In practice, however, there is a risk of breakage or other injury to the clamping element due to improper handling of the bottle crate.
- a third generic bottle crate is known from BE-A-613 221 (see FIG. 12) and has column-shaped whole or half separating elements which are obviously arranged in a square grid. These separating elements are designed as elastic hollow bodies which have bulges in the area near the floor. They can also be pear-shaped overall, in this case the bulges are spaced from the ground by a constriction. These bulges are more or less deformed when the bottles are inserted and thus contact the bottle surface in an undefined manner.
- partitions were dispensed with, which, for example, could connect the partition elements to one another so that they can be reached a sufficient stability of the bottle crate, considerably more material and space had to be used for the floor or wall construction, which hardly takes today's goals in terms of material and space optimization into account.
- a fourth generic bottle crate is known from DE-A-38 06 924 (see FIGS. 3-5) and has separating elements known as quills, which are offset from one another in the circumferential direction and each have springs intended for contact with a bottle.
- the space delimited by these springs between the same and the intermediate or side walls of the bottle crate is smaller than the dimensions of a bottle.
- Partitions are provided for subdivision and stabilization of the bottle crate, which can also separate one bottle unit (e.g. 6-pack) from the next. Due to the described arrangement of separating elements and side or intermediate walls, retaining springs contact the bottles used only on one side, but in any case in an area that is smaller than half the circumference of the bottle.
- the invention is intended to remedy this.
- the invention as specified in claim 1 and further developed in the dependent claims, creates a bottle crate with elastic clamping elements which have a relatively steep spring characteristic, so that a sufficient contact pressure is developed even with slight deformation.
- the bottle crate shown in the figures has a bottom 1, from which protrude separation columns which are designed as hollow pins 2 which are open at the bottom.
- the hollow pins 2 are spaced apart from one another and form a regular pattern, preferably they are arranged in the corners of squares which form compartments 3 and are connected by low dividing walls 4.
- the bottom sections in the compartments are formed by ribs and rings 5 connected to the hollow pins 2 and the dividing walls 4.
- the bottom 1 is surrounded by side walls 6, which can be provided with windows and on which the hollow pin 2 correspondingly designed half-hollow pin 2 'are arranged.
- the hollow pins 2 have an approximately square cross section. Each of the four compartments 3, which abut one of them, the hollow pin 2 turns to one of its side wall sections 7, which are connected by beads 8 at the edges to form a substantially closed side wall. At the upper end of the hollow pin 2, the side wall sections 7 converge approximately pyramid-like. At the top there is an opening 9 which allows the drainage of Liquid allows when the bottle crate - with the bottom up - is washed.
- Each of the side wall sections 7 has a substantially vertically oriented bracket 10, which itself forms part of the same, but is separated from the wall regions bordering on both sides by narrow slots 11 and protrudes somewhat into the compartment 3 to which the side wall section 7 faces.
- the bracket 10 merges into the inclined part of the side wall section 7, at its lower end into a foot part 12 of the hollow pin 2 that widens slightly downwards.
- It consists of a lower section 13, which is slightly behind the side wall section 7 inclined on the outside, approximately vertically aligned and an upper section 14 which is bent towards the hollow pin 2.
- it has a longitudinal rib 15 protruding into the interior of the hollow pin 2 on each edge.
- the bracket 10 If a bottle 16 (shown in dashed lines) is inserted into the compartment 3, the bracket 10 is pressed slightly against the hollow pin 2 and, owing to the anchoring on both sides thereof, develops a relatively large contact pressure which pushes the lower section 13 of the bracket 10 to the outside the bottle 16 presses, d. H. is effective on a fairly large area, so that there is a reliable frictional connection.
- the high bending stiffness of the hollow pin 2 even with a small wall thickness, ensures that the contact pressure is not reduced when the bottle crate is only partially filled by bending the hollow pin 2 sideways against an unfilled neighboring compartment.
