Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plastic barrel with a substantially cylindrical barrel wall, a flat disk-shaped barrel bottom and a corresponding barrel top, in which a closable bunghole opening is optionally arranged, and with a circumferential carrying and transport ring arranged in the vicinity of the barrel top on the barrel outer wall bottom-facing horizontal and inward-facing vertical contact surface for the gripper claws of a drum gripper.
  • a plastic barrel is such.
  • Usual sheet drums with the usual small bunghole openings can only be used for the storage and transportation of liquids; Because of the small bunghole opening (s) (2 inches), bung barrels are not suitable for viscous or particulate contents.
  • tough or solid filling goods such as bitumen, paint, fruit concentrates, granules, bulk goods or the like
  • EPS expandable polystyrene
  • a plastic drum which is particularly suitable for the transport of viscous or gritty products.
  • the barrel should be inexpensive to manufacture and also be handled with conventional barrel gripper tools.
  • This object is achieved in that in a plastic barrel with a substantially cylindrical barrel wall, a disk-shaped barrel bottom and a corresponding barrel top, in which a smaller closable bunghole opening is arranged laterally, and with a circumferential arranged in the vicinity of the barrel top on the barrel outer wall
  • Carrying and transport ring with downward-facing horizontal and inward-facing vertical contact surface for the gripper claws of a drum gripper, with the height level the top of the barrel is arranged above the level of the front edge of the carrying and transport ring, and in the flat top of the barrel a bung hole protruding in a recessed bung housing is arranged with an external thread, the inside diameter of which is at least 100 mm or larger, and this bung hole using a screw-on screw cap with a corresponding one Internal thread is gas and liquid tight
  • the diameter of the bunghole is approximately 150 mm. In another special embodiment, the diameter of the bunghole connector is approximately 225 mm. It is advantageous to use the same lid diameter sizes for different barrel sizes (e.g. 120 l, 220 l).
  • the L-ring barrel according to the invention with the large screw-in lid recessed in a sheet-skip is less expensive to produce than a conventional standard lid barrel and, on the other hand, has considerably better traps.
  • the different screw caps are also much cheaper to produce than a large drum lid (since they are already available in certain specified sizes), and there is also no need for an additional clamping ring.
  • the barrel is blown in one piece.
  • the barrel can of course also be welded together from an upper bottom (and possibly also underbody) separately prefabricated by injection molding with an extruded cylindrical barrel body blank made of two (or three) parts.
  • the barrel according to the invention can also be equipped with a circumferential stable floor rolling ring on the lower barrel edge in the transition region from the outer barrel wall and flat barrel bottom.
  • an important feature of the invention is that regardless of the capacity of the L-ring drums (eg 60 l, 120 l, 150 l, 160 l or even 220 l), the same dimensions always remain for a preferred size of the screw cap.
  • the smaller version of a screw cap has e.g. B. an outer diameter of about 180 mm, while the outer diameter of a larger screw cap is about 270 mm.
  • the bung has an external thread for the screw cap according to the invention, which is equipped with an internal thread; the usual small 2-inch bunghole spigots of normal bung barrels, on the other hand, always have an internal thread and the associated bung plug has a corresponding external thread.
  • the level of the screw cap screwed onto the bunghole connector is arranged at the same height or almost flush with the top of the barrel or below the top of the barrel.
  • the screw cap which is recessed in a bung in the top of the barrel, is optimally protected in the event of a barrel crash and does not come into direct contact with the floor in the event of a floor impact.
  • reference number 10 denotes a plastic drum (MAUSER L-ring drum HOT) according to the invention, which has a cylindrical drum wall 12, a disk-shaped drum bottom 14 and a corresponding drum top 16.
  • a circumferential carrying and transport ring 22 is formed with a downward-facing horizontal contact surface 24 and with an inward-facing vertical contact surface 26 for the gripper claws of a drum gripper that is customary for steel drums.
  • a recessed bung housing 28 is formed with a bung hole connector 30 with an external thread that protrudes or protrudes from the flat bung housing base 40.
  • the inside diameter of the bunghole connector 30 or the bunghole opening 20 (18) is at least 100 mm or more (larger) and is closed in a gas-tight and liquid-tight manner by means of a screw-on screw cap 34 (32) with a corresponding internal thread at the flange edge.
  • the smallest inside diameter of the bunghole should not be less than 100 mm, since the opening should be at least large enough to allow e.g. B. can reach for a sample by hand. Of course, this minimum opening width is also very advantageous for a complete interior cleaning of the barrel with multiple use.
  • the bunghole opening should not be significantly larger than half the barrel diameter; then on the one hand the cost advantage is lost and on the other hand the drop resistance can possibly be reduced because, for example, a strong elastic bulge in the top surface could possibly cause a leak on the screw cap.
  • FIG. 2 shows the upper barrel section with the larger bunghole opening 18 with an inside diameter of the bung 30 of approximately 225 mm.
  • the diameter of the sheet pile housing measured in the height plane of the top of the barrel is between 300 mm and 400 mm, preferably approximately 330 mm, and the diameter of the flat sheet pile housing base is between 250 mm and 330 mm, preferably approximately 270 mm.
  • the larger screw cap 32 with an outer diameter of approx. 270 mm can be provided on its surface with projecting ring web pieces for attaching a key tool.
  • the other preferred embodiment with the smaller bunghole opening 20 with an inner diameter of the bung 30 of approximately 150 mm is shown in FIG .
  • the diameter of the sheet pile housing measured in the height plane of the barrel top, is between 200 mm and 300 mm, preferably approximately 230 mm, and the diameter of the flat sheet pile base is between 180 mm and 250 mm, preferably approximately 190 mm.
  • the smaller screw cap 34 with an outer diameter of approximately 180 mm is preferably provided with a flat surface.
  • the flat, disc-shaped surface of the screw cap is adjoined by a flange edge that protrudes at a right angle and has a height of approx. 40 mm.
  • the flange edge has an internal thread and the bunghole connector 30 has a corresponding external thread.
  • a second, somewhat shorter flange ring also protruding at right angles is formed on the inside of the screw cap.
  • a circumferential U-shaped groove is formed between the outer flange edge and the inner flange ring, into which a seal is inserted, which seals the screw cap against the upper end edge of the bunghole connector 30.
  • the level of the screw cap screwed onto the bunghole connector ends between the level of the top of the barrel and the level of the upper end edge of the carrying and transport ring 22.
  • the level of the top of the barrel is arranged above the level of the front edge of the carrying and transport ring.
  • a supporting internal pressure is advantageously built up in the stacked barrel before the stacking load is introduced into the carrying and transport ring.
  • FIG 4 another embodiment of the invention is shown in partial sectional view, in which a second small closable bunghole opening 38 z. B. is provided for machine filling or for the residual emptying of the barrel content.
  • this bunghole opening 38 initially remains closed at the bottom (inside) during the blow molding process. Lateral holes can only be drilled into the threaded connector if necessary or the disk-shaped base piece of the threaded connector is cut out.
  • the bunghole opening 38 can be closed with a corresponding conventional bung plug.
  • the level of the top 16 of the barrel is arranged below the level of the front edge 36 of the carrying and transport ring 22, while the screw cap 34 projects slightly above the top 16 of the barrel.
  • FIG. 5 shows a top view of the barrel design according to FIG. 4.
  • the additional bunghole 38 can, but must, for. B. not necessarily be formed when used for granular products.
  • At least one radially running water drainage channel 42 is formed in the barrel top 16, which opens on the inside into the bung housing 28 and on the outside into the engaging groove 44 running behind the carrying and transport ring 22 in the circumferential direction.
  • the connection of the bung housing and engaging groove prevents, for example, large amounts of rainwater from accumulating in the bung housing 28 when such a barrel is stored outdoors.
  • the rainwater that collects can flow through the gutter 42 out of the bung housing 28 into the deeper engaging groove 44 behind the carrying and transport ring 22.
  • At least one point, preferably at several points, through the connecting web of the carrying and transport ring, corresponding water drainage holes opening into the bottom of the engaging groove 44 are arranged, so that no rainwater can collect at all in the engaging groove 44.
  • FIG. 16 Another feature according to the invention is realized in FIG .
  • the top of the barrel 16 is here inclined slightly at an angle, namely - viewed in the normal position of the barrel - on the side of the additional residual emptying bunghole 38 between 2 mm and 12 mm, preferably about 8 mm, higher than on the side opposite the smaller bung hole 38.
  • the height difference of approximately 8 mm is also indicated in FIG. 4 by the dashed line of contour of the low barrel top area and the spacing arrows attached at right angles to it.
  • central support is provided via the screw cap 32 and circumferential support is provided via the carrying and transport ring 22 of the stacked drum.
  • corresponding attachment elements 46 can be arranged on the surface of the barrel top, as shown in FIG .
  • the attachment elements 46 are each flush with the carrying and transport ring 22.
  • eight web-shaped attachment elements 46 are provided which are evenly spaced from one another.
  • the attachment elements can of course also be another, e.g. B.
  • the screw cap barrel according to the invention is thus excellently suitable for particulate and liquid filling goods.
  • the large container opening is also advantageous for the use of an agitator (agitator) z. B. in the case of products that tend to separate (eg zinc oxide paint), which have to be mixed and homogenized before a product is removed.
  • the barrel is also suitable for multiple use, since it can be completely cleaned from the inside, in contrast to conventional sheet drums. And thanks to the large container opening, it is also possible for the first time to use or use an appropriate, thin-walled plastic liner for a closed L-ring barrel.
  • the screw cap 32 itself is equipped with a bung plug 50 having a degassing device 48, as a result of which pressure build-up inside the barrel is prevented.
  • the screw cap L-ring barrel according to the invention can of course also be equipped with a lower circumferential bottom rolling ring.
