Definitions
- the homopolymers and powdered copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene are extremely sensitive to pressure. For example, when filling, a certain bulk height must not be exceeded, otherwise the powder will cake together and error-free processing can no longer be guaranteed. Material squeezes caused by pressure can lead to defects in the molded articles produced therefrom, such as compacts or extrudates, which are unacceptable, particularly in the case of thin-walled products such as wire coatings or foils.
- the polymers mentioned must also be protected against dust and moisture.
- the polymers of tetrafluoroethylene are manufactured and processed with the greatest possible exclusion of dirt particles.
- the invention was therefore based on the object of providing a packaging system which ensures the maintenance of the named quality standard even when filling, transporting and removing the powder.
- a frame-container combination is known from US-A 5 275 289, each container being enclosed by a frame.
- the frames are designed such that they snap into stacks stacked above and below and into a pallet, preferably four of the stacks thus formed being arranged on a standard pallet.
- the container is made of cardboard.
- An outer wrapping made of cardboard or film can be provided for the transport. This system is unsuitable for powdery bulk goods.
- the design and the material of the outer container depend on the intended use.
- the outer container can more or less completely enclose the inner container and, for example, can also be designed in a lattice shape.
- the material can be metal, wood or plastic, or preferably cardboard.
- a completely closed form is preferred since it offers the inner container optimum protection.
- Disposal is one aspect of the design of the outer container: if the container is to be used several times, it is expediently designed to be collapsible. In these cases the material will preferably be metal or plastic. If it is to be used essentially as disposable packaging, it is advisable to choose cardboard that is easy to dispose of.
- a preferred embodiment of a cardboard outer container consists of an inner base part with a cover put over it, this so-called telescopic cover essentially enclosing the inner part.
- an additional covering by a film can be expedient, which offers additional protection against transport influences.
- the material of the outer container is cardboard, a surface protection in the form of a varnish or a film cover can also be advantageous.
- a standard pallet is usually equipped with an outer container.
- the outer container can be placed loosely on the pallet or connected to it permanently or releasably.
- a firm connection for example by means of screws, clips or gluing, can be considered if the pallet is to be reused as a packaging system.
- a detachable connection can, for example, be made of wires or strips in a manner known per se Metal or plastic or a film cover exist. Usually up to four of these units are stacked on top of each other.
- the basic size of the outer container advantageously matches that of the pallet. A protrusion of the outer container over the edge of the pallet is undesirable, since otherwise damage to the outer container can occur. If the pallet protrudes, on the other hand, valuable transport volume is given away.
- the pallet is preferably a standard pallet, for example with the standard dimensions 1000 x 1200 mm or 800 x 1200 mm.
- the pallet can be made of wood, cardboard, metal, plastic or a combination of these materials.
- the shape of the inner container is essentially cuboid, which should also be understood to mean cuboids, cubes, but also conical configurations, since this embodiment can be easily stacked into one another in the empty state and thus takes up little volume before filling and during return transport.
- the volume of the inner container is advantageously 20 to 100 l, since on the one hand smaller containers are less economical due to the use of materials and the volume required, and on the other hand larger containers with sensitive goods such as tetrafluoroethylene polymers can lead to clumping.
- Containers of 40 to 100 l, in particular 40 to 80 l, are particularly advantageous. Taking these volume ratios into account, the inner containers are designed in such a way that the volume of the outer container is optimally utilized. Usually four to six of these inner containers per layer and two to four layers are stacked one above the other in the outer container. The stiffness of the inner container is measured according to the number of layers and the resulting load on the filled containers. This is therefore considerably less than with the known plastic drums, which were previously stacked in up to four pallet stacks without an outer container.
- the material of the inner container consists of conventional plastics such as polyolefins, in particular polymers of ethylene and propylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyamides and polyesters. Polyethylene and polypropylene are preferred.
- the inner containers can be produced by conventional methods, advantageously by injection molding. They can have different configurations and can be equipped, for example, with carrying handles and stiffening ribs.
- the inner container can be firmly closed with a lid, which can be designed in the usual way, for example connected to the container or loose.
- a snap lock is preferred.
- the invention allows the inner container to be made relatively thin-walled, which not only results in considerable weight and material savings, but also allows the use of simpler and smaller machines and is therefore less energy-intensive with higher output.
- the resulting low weight of the inner container thus allows configurations of the entire packaging system with a considerable weight reduction or a favorable ratio of gross to net weight of the packaged goods, especially if the outer container is made of cardboard.
- This favorable relation is achieved according to the invention in that the outer packaging takes on the stacking load and the protection against transport influences to a considerable extent.
- this carton In contrast, in small containers for household items and cosmetics, in which a plastic container is surrounded by a carton, this carton often only serves as an advertising medium and does not have the protective and support function for the absorption of high loads in one as in the present invention the pallet load weight in the range between 300 and 600 kg.

Abstract
Description
Die Homopolymeren und pulverförmigen Copolymeren des Tetrafluorethylens sind extrem druckempfindlich. So darf beispielsweise bei der Abfüllung eine gewisse Schütthöhe nicht überschritten werden, da sonst ein Zusammenbacken des Pulvers eintritt und eine fehlerfreie Verarbeitung nicht mehr gewährleistet ist. Durch Druck hervorgerufene Materialquetschungen können zu Fehlstellen in den daraus hergestellten Formkörpern wie Preßlingen oder Extrudaten führen, die insbesondere bei dünnwandigen Erzeugnissen wie Drahtüberzügen oder Folien nicht hinnehmbar sind.The homopolymers and powdered copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene are extremely sensitive to pressure. For example, when filling, a certain bulk height must not be exceeded, otherwise the powder will cake together and error-free processing can no longer be guaranteed. Material squeezes caused by pressure can lead to defects in the molded articles produced therefrom, such as compacts or extrudates, which are unacceptable, particularly in the case of thin-walled products such as wire coatings or foils.
Die genannten Polymeren sind außerdem vor Staub und Feuchtigkeit zu schützen. Als eine wesentliche Voraussetzung für die Gewährleistung der erforderlichen Qualitäten werden die Polymeren des Tetrafluorethylens unter weitestgehendem Ausschluß von Schmutzteilchen hergestellt und verarbeitet.The polymers mentioned must also be protected against dust and moisture. As an essential prerequisite for ensuring the required qualities, the polymers of tetrafluoroethylene are manufactured and processed with the greatest possible exclusion of dirt particles.
Der Erfindung lag deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verpackungssystem bereitzustellen, das die Aufrechterhaltung des genannten Qualitätsstandards auch bei Abfüllung, Transport und Entnahme der Pulver gewährleistet.The invention was therefore based on the object of providing a packaging system which ensures the maintenance of the named quality standard even when filling, transporting and removing the powder.
Es ist heute üblich, pulverförmige Polymere des Tetrafluorethylens in runde Kunststoff- oder Fibertrommeln abzufüllen. Diese Trommeln müssen so stabil sein, daß sie die Last von mindestens drei darübergestapelten, befüllten Trommeln pro Palettengebinde und von bis zu vier solcher Palettenstapel im Lager oder von zwei Palettenstapeln auf dem Transport tragen können. In der Praxis hat es sich aber gezeigt, daß selbst dickwandige Konstruktionen aus Polyethylen und Polypropylen bei Lagertemperaturen von bis etwa 60 ° C zu einer Deformation der untersten Trommeln bei einem solchen Stapelgewicht führen können. Beim dadurch bedingten Einstürzen eines derartigen Stapels kann es - neben hohem Sachschaden - auch zu Personengefährdung kommen. Ein weiterer Nachteil dieser runden Trommeln ist, daß sie die Grundfläche üblicher Paletten nur unzureichend ausfüllen, so daß bis zu 25 % an wertvollem Transportvolumen ungenutzt bleibt.It is common today to fill powdered polymers of tetrafluoroethylene into round plastic or fiber drums. These drums must be so stable that they can carry the load of at least three stacked, filled drums per pallet container and up to four such pallet stacks in the warehouse or two pallet stacks during transport. In practice, however, it has been shown that even thick-walled constructions made of polyethylene and polypropylene at storage temperatures of up to about 60 ° C. can lead to a deformation of the lowest drums with such a stack weight. If a stack of this type collapses as a result, it can - in addition to high property damage - also endanger people. Another disadvantage of these round drums is that they fill the base of conventional pallets insufficiently, so that up to 25% of valuable transport volume remains unused.
Aus der US-A 5 275 289 ist eine Rahmen-Behälter-Kombination bekannt, wobei jeder Behälter von einem Rahmen umschlossen ist. Die Rahmen sind so ausgestaltet, daß sie in darüber und darunter gestapelte sowie in eine Palette einrasten, wobei vorzugsweise vier der so gebildeten Stapel auf einer Normpalette angeordnet sind. Der Behälter besteht aus Karton. Für den Transport kann eine Außenumhüllung aus Karton oder Folie vorgesehen sein. Dieses System ist für pulverförmige Schüttgüter ungeeignet.A frame-container combination is known from US-A 5 275 289, each container being enclosed by a frame. The frames are designed such that they snap into stacks stacked above and below and into a pallet, preferably four of the stacks thus formed being arranged on a standard pallet. The container is made of cardboard. An outer wrapping made of cardboard or film can be provided for the transport. This system is unsuitable for powdery bulk goods.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verpackungssystem überwindet die genannten Nachteile und führt mit geringem Aufwand zu einer Verpackung, die den gestellten Anforderungen nachkommt und ganz allgemein für empfindliche Schüttgüter, vor allem für Pulver, geeignet ist. Das erfindungsgemäße System ist gekennzeichnet durch
- a) einen Außenbehälter aus hinreichend steifem Material, dessen Grundfläche im wesentlichen der einer üblichen Palette entspricht,
- b) der mit nebeneinander in Lagen angeordneten, im wesentlichen quaderförmigen Innenbehältern aus Kunststoff von je 10 bis 120 I Volumen befüllt ist, wobei diese Innenbehälter so ausgestaltet sind, daß bis zu vier Lagen übereinandergestapelt sein können.
- a) an outer container made of sufficiently rigid material, the base of which essentially corresponds to that of a conventional pallet,
- b) which is filled with essentially parallelepiped-shaped inner containers made of plastic, each with a volume of 10 to 120 liters, which are arranged next to one another in layers, these inner containers being designed such that up to four layers can be stacked on top of one another.
Bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung werden im folgenden näher erläutert.Preferred embodiments of the invention are explained in more detail below.
Die Ausgestaltung und das Material des Außenbehälters richten sich nach dem Einsatzzweck. So kann der Außenbehälter die Innenbehälter mehr oder weniger vollständig umschließen und beispielsweise auch gitterförmig ausgestaltet sein. Dementsprechend kann das Material Metall, Holz oder Kunststoff oder aber vorzugsweise Pappe sein. Bevorzugt ist aber eine vollständig geschlossene Form, da sie dem Innenbehälter optimalen Schutz bietet.The design and the material of the outer container depend on the intended use. For example, the outer container can more or less completely enclose the inner container and, for example, can also be designed in a lattice shape. Accordingly, the material can be metal, wood or plastic, or preferably cardboard. However, a completely closed form is preferred since it offers the inner container optimum protection.
Ein Gesichtspunkt für die Ausgestaltung des Außenbehälters ist die Entsorgung: Wenn der Behälter mehrfach verwendet werden soll, wird er zweckmäßig zusammenklappbar ausgestaltet. In diesen Fällen wird das Material vorzugsweise Metall oder Kunststoff sein. Soll er im wesentlichen als Einwegverpackung dienen, wählt man zweckmäßigerweise Pappe, die einfach zu entsorgen ist.Disposal is one aspect of the design of the outer container: if the container is to be used several times, it is expediently designed to be collapsible. In these cases the material will preferably be metal or plastic. If it is to be used essentially as disposable packaging, it is advisable to choose cardboard that is easy to dispose of.
Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform eines Karton-Außenbehälters besteht aus einem inneren Bodenteil mit darübergestülptem Deckel, wobei dieser sogenannte Teleskopdeckel das Innenteil im wesentlichen umschließt.A preferred embodiment of a cardboard outer container consists of an inner base part with a cover put over it, this so-called telescopic cover essentially enclosing the inner part.
Insbesondere dann, wenn der Außenbehälter die Innenbehälter nicht vollständig umschließt, kann eine zusätzliche Umhüllung durch eine Folie zweckmäßig sein, die einen zusätzlichen Schutz vor Transporteinflüssen bietet. Wenn das Material des Außenbehälters Pappe ist, kann auch ein Oberflächenschutz in Form einer Lackierung oder eine Folienhülle vorteilhaft sein.In particular, if the outer container does not completely enclose the inner container, an additional covering by a film can be expedient, which offers additional protection against transport influences. If the material of the outer container is cardboard, a surface protection in the form of a varnish or a film cover can also be advantageous.
In jedem Falle muß der Außenbehälter die Last der darübergestapelten weiteren Außenbehälter zuverlässig aufnehmen. Üblicherweise ist eine Normpalette mit einem Außenbehälter ausgestattet. Der Außenbehälter kann lose auf die Palette aufgesetzt sein oder mit dieser fest oder lösbar verbunden sein. Eine feste Verbindung, beispielsweise mittels Schrauben, Klammern oder Verkleben, kommt dann in Betracht, wenn die Palette als Verpakkungssystem wiederverwendet werden soll. Eine lösbare Verbindung kann beispielsweise in an sich bekannter Weise aus Drähten oder Bändern aus Metall oder Kunststoff oder einer Folienhülle bestehen. Normalerweise werden bis zu vier dieser Einheiten aufeinandergestapelt.In any case, the outer container must reliably bear the load of the other outer containers stacked on top. A standard pallet is usually equipped with an outer container. The outer container can be placed loosely on the pallet or connected to it permanently or releasably. A firm connection, for example by means of screws, clips or gluing, can be considered if the pallet is to be reused as a packaging system. A detachable connection can, for example, be made of wires or strips in a manner known per se Metal or plastic or a film cover exist. Usually up to four of these units are stacked on top of each other.
Das Grundmaß des Außenbehälters stimmt vorteilhaft mit dem der Palette überein. Ein Überstand des Außenbehälters über den Palettenrand ist unerwünscht, da sonst Schäden am Außenbehälter auftreten können. Bei einem Überstand der Palette wird andererseits wertvolles Transportvolumen verschenkt.The basic size of the outer container advantageously matches that of the pallet. A protrusion of the outer container over the edge of the pallet is undesirable, since otherwise damage to the outer container can occur. If the pallet protrudes, on the other hand, valuable transport volume is given away.
Bei der Palette handelt es sich vorzugsweise um eine Normpalette, zum Beispiel mit den Standardmaßen 1000 x 1200 mm oder 800 x 1200 mm. Die Palette kann aus Holz, Pappe, Metall, Kunststoff oder einer Kombination dieser Materialien bestehen.The pallet is preferably a standard pallet, for example with the standard dimensions 1000 x 1200 mm or 800 x 1200 mm. The pallet can be made of wood, cardboard, metal, plastic or a combination of these materials.
Die Form der Innenbehälter ist im wesentlichen quaderförmig, worunter Quader, Würfel aber vorteilhaft auch konische Ausgestaltungen verstanden werden sollen, da diese Ausführungsform im leeren Zustand leicht ineinander stapelbar ist und so vor der Befüllung und bei einem Rücktransport wenig Volumen einnimmt.The shape of the inner container is essentially cuboid, which should also be understood to mean cuboids, cubes, but also conical configurations, since this embodiment can be easily stacked into one another in the empty state and thus takes up little volume before filling and during return transport.
Das Volumen der Innenbehälter beträgt vorteilhaft 20 bis 100 I, da einerseits kleinere Behälter aufgrund des Materialeinsatzes und der Volumeninanspruchnahme weniger wirtschaftlich sind und andererseits größere Behälter bei empfindlichen Gütern wie Tetrafluorethylen-Polymeren zu einer Verklumpung führen können. Besonders vorteilhaft sind Behälter von 40 bis 100 I, insbesondere 40 bis 80 I. Unter Berücksichtigung dieser Volumenverhältnisse werden die Innenbehälter so ausgestaltet, daß das Volumen des Außenbehälters optimal ausgenutzt wird. Üblicherweise werden vier bis sechs dieser Innenbehälter pro Lage und zwei bis vier Lagen übereinander in den Außenbehälter gestapelt. Nach der Zahl der Lagen und der daraus resultierenden Last der gefüllten Behälter bemißt sich die Steifigkeit der Innenbehälter. Diese ist somit erheblich geringer als bei den bekannten Kunststofftrommeln, die bisher ohne Außenbehälter in bis zu vier Palettenstapeln übereinander gelagert wurden.The volume of the inner container is advantageously 20 to 100 l, since on the one hand smaller containers are less economical due to the use of materials and the volume required, and on the other hand larger containers with sensitive goods such as tetrafluoroethylene polymers can lead to clumping. Containers of 40 to 100 l, in particular 40 to 80 l, are particularly advantageous. Taking these volume ratios into account, the inner containers are designed in such a way that the volume of the outer container is optimally utilized. Usually four to six of these inner containers per layer and two to four layers are stacked one above the other in the outer container. The stiffness of the inner container is measured according to the number of layers and the resulting load on the filled containers. This is therefore considerably less than with the known plastic drums, which were previously stacked in up to four pallet stacks without an outer container.
Das Material der Innenbehälter besteht aus üblichen Kunststoffen wie Polyolefinen, insbesondere Polymeren des Ethylens und Propylens, Polyvinylchlorid, Polyamiden und Polyestern. Bevorzugt sind Polyethylen und Polypropylen.The material of the inner container consists of conventional plastics such as polyolefins, in particular polymers of ethylene and propylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyamides and polyesters. Polyethylene and polypropylene are preferred.
Die Innenbehälter können nach üblichen Verfahren hergestellt werden, vorteilhaft durch Spritzguß. Sie können verschiedene Ausgestaltungen aufweisen und beispielsweise mit Tragegriffen und Versteifungsrippen ausgestattet sein.The inner containers can be produced by conventional methods, advantageously by injection molding. They can have different configurations and can be equipped, for example, with carrying handles and stiffening ribs.
Die Innenbehälter sind mit einem Deckel fest verschließbar, der in üblicher Weise ausgestaltet sein kann, also beispielsweise mit dem Behälter verbunden oder lose ist. Bevorzugt ist ein Schnappverschluß.The inner container can be firmly closed with a lid, which can be designed in the usual way, for example connected to the container or loose. A snap lock is preferred.
Aus der US-A 3 547 309 sind oben offene stapelbare Körbe für Obst und Gemüse bekannt, deren Versteifungsrippen sowohl ein Längs- als auch Querstapeln erlauben. Sie können so durch geeignetes Stapeln stabil auf Paletten angeordnet werden.From US-A 3 547 309 open stackable baskets for fruit and vegetables are known, the stiffening ribs of which allow both longitudinal and transverse stacking. They can be stably arranged on pallets by suitable stacking.
Die Erfindung erlaubt es demgegenüber, die Innenbehälter relativ dünnwandig zu fertigen, was nicht nur eine erhebliche Gewichts- und Materialersparnis mit sich bringt, sondern auch den Einsatz einfacherer und kleinerer Maschinen erlaubt und so bei höherem Ausstoß weniger energieaufwendig ist. Das resultierende geringe Gewicht der Innenbehälter erlaubt somit Ausgestaltungen des gesamten Verpackungssystems mit einer erheblichen Gewichtsreduzierung beziehungsweise eine günstige Relation von Brutto- zu Nettogewicht der verpackten Güter, insbesondere, wenn der Außenbehälter aus Karton besteht. Diese günstige Relation wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß die Außenverpackung in erheblichem Außmaß die Stapellast und den Schutz vor Transporteinflüssen übernimmt. Im Gegensatz dazu dient bei Kleingebinden für Haushaltsartikel und Kosmetika, bei denen ein Kunststoffbehälter von einem Karton umgeben ist, dieser häufig nur als Werbeträger und übt nicht in dem Maße wie bei der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Schutz- und Stützfunktion für die Aufnahme hoher Lasten bei einem auf der Palette lastenden Gewicht im Bereich zwischen 300 und 600 kg aus.In contrast, the invention allows the inner container to be made relatively thin-walled, which not only results in considerable weight and material savings, but also allows the use of simpler and smaller machines and is therefore less energy-intensive with higher output. The resulting low weight of the inner container thus allows configurations of the entire packaging system with a considerable weight reduction or a favorable ratio of gross to net weight of the packaged goods, especially if the outer container is made of cardboard. This favorable relation is achieved according to the invention in that the outer packaging takes on the stacking load and the protection against transport influences to a considerable extent. In contrast, in small containers for household items and cosmetics, in which a plastic container is surrounded by a carton, this carton often only serves as an advertising medium and does not have the protective and support function for the absorption of high loads in one as in the present invention the pallet load weight in the range between 300 and 600 kg.
Die DE-A 2 711 632 bezieht sich auf einen Umkarton zum Transport einer ungeraden Zahl von Behältnissen, die einen Griff im Deckelteil aufweisen. Durch einen Ausschnitt im Deckel des Umkartons kann der Griff des mittleren Behälters erfaßt und damit das gesamte Gebinde leicht von einer Person mit einer Hand transportiert werden. Die Innenbehälter sind vorzugsweise quaderförmige Flüssigkeitskanister.DE-A 2 711 632 relates to a cardboard box for transporting an odd number of containers which have a handle in the lid part. Through a cutout in the lid of the outer carton, the handle of the middle container can be gripped and thus the entire container can be easily transported by one person with one hand. The inner containers are preferably cuboidal liquid canisters.
