Definitions
- the invention relates to a closure for special containers, in particular gastronorm containers, which are provided for receiving perishable goods, the lid and special container being equipped with a corresponding edge.
- the object of the present invention is to create a container, in particular a gastronorm container, which enables a negative pressure to be generated.
- the cover has a stepped edge with a cover surface and a support surface lying against the side wall of the special container, in that the cover is designed to be rigid, has a sealing element on the cover surface and a Schneilverschlußschlü ⁇ kktschkupplung or valve.
- gastronorm containers can be used which are simply provided with a corresponding cover which not only has the valve or closure arrangements necessary for generating the negative pressure, but also as such for stiffening the gastronorm container or other container
- ERS AT2BLATT can serve. Because of the stepped edge, the gastronorm container supports the side wall of the special container, which is stiffened in this way. It is particularly advantageous that existing gastronorm containers can be retrofitted so that the user incurs minimal costs.
- the containers can then be used as before and can also be used as vacuum containers. There is no time-consuming refilling in foils and vacuum bags, further the shrinkage is eliminated, the same applies to removal from the foils or vacuum bags and the problem of disposal of the mostly co-extruded foils and vacuum bags is eliminated. Cooling problems are largely eliminated by the fact that, in contrast to large containers, the material under vacuum has direct contact with the container, and cooling problems, as in the case of large containers, do not arise due to the lack of heat-conducting media or walls.
- the cover is made of transparent plastic. This makes it easy to identify and identify the contents of the container as such.
- the cover is provided with a valve arranged on the edge.
- This valve in particular enables the vacuum to be released if, for example, the dishes or other substances are to be removed from the gastronorm container or other container.
- the assignment to the edge leaves the gastronorm container stackable. With a transparent lid, the labeling of the container or the content is advantageously omitted.
- the sealing element is detachably attached to the cover surface, because separate cleaning is thereby possible.
- Easy assembly and disassembly of the valve is possible by having the valve and cover with the correct sponding threads are provided and a sealing ring is arranged between the two parts.
- a cover with a stepped edge it can also have a grooved edge according to the invention, which has the advantage that the cover is also laterally fixed, so that a precise fit is guaranteed from the outset and thus a secure support and stabilization of the upper edge of the container.
- the lid is made of metal.
- the invention is characterized in particular by the fact that the inherent stability and the special design of the lid make it possible to generate a vacuum even in conventional gastronorm containers or similar small containers, which ensures long and safe storage of food and other items possible perishable substances.
- the otherwise quite unstable container is stabilized by the stabilization in the lid area or in the area of the upper edge in such a way that the forces arising from the vacuum are absorbed without problems, with larger containers possibly having the bottom by means of appropriate reinforcements or profiles can also be stabilized.
- FIG. 1 a gastronorm container with a stabilizing lid in section
- FIG. 2 a lid with a grooved edge
- FIG. 3 a lid with a stepped edge.
- Fig. 1 shows a gastronorm container 3, which has a Cover 1 is closed.
- the cover 3 consists here, for example, of transparent plastic. It has a stepped edge 10, as it is additionally shown in FIG. 3 and according to FIG. 2 and the right illustration according to FIG. 1 has a grooved edge 13.
- a sealing element 2 is arranged, which is detachably connected to the cover surface 11. 2 and 3 show the same.
- the side wall and the supporting surface of the special container 3 are designated by 12 and 13, it being clear that here these individual surfaces or walls can be created by the chord lock check coupling or the valve 4 without the lateral wall manure 15 of the special container 3 can deform significantly. After a relatively short deformation path, it abuts the side wall 15 of the cover 1, so that a corresponding stabilization then occurs.
- the quick-release check coupling or the corresponding valve is sealed by the sealing ring 5 so that even with a screw-in version, as shown in FIG. 1, leaks cannot occur.
- the otherwise quite unstable special container 3 is given the necessary stability to be able to withstand the forces that occur in a vacuum, whereby Larger containers may be in the ground, e.g. B. can be reinforced by profiles.
- a hose (not shown here) is plugged between the quick-release feedback coupling 4 and a high-performance vacuum pump or a vacuum packaging machine with a device for extracting external containers. Aeration of the special container 3 happens by plugging only the hose onto the quick release check coupling 4, which is sufficient to unlock the quick release check clutch 4 so that the special container 3 is vented.
