Definitions
- German patent 41 36 123 by the same applicant discloses a waste container of this type, in which a bag-shaped or bag-shaped case with an open edge is proposed for receiving the bag-shaped inner container.
- the bag-shaped inner container is only relatively difficult to insert because of its locking and bending cross folds, since bending of the inner container or tilting makes handling more difficult.
- the case shown in the application 43 09 232 by the same applicant for receiving the bag-shaped inner container is designed as a two-walled case, which comprises two arched, superimposed walls, which are firmly connected below a crease line. Two walls run out of the resulting lower flap, the cut above the fold line of which is adapted to the cut of the inner container to be accommodated. Along the side walls Running guides between the two walls with guide slots, in which the inner container can be inserted, have adhesive devices that can be detached for inserting the inner container. However, these detention devices tend to become dirty and closed; Moreover, this arrangement is relatively complex to manufacture and difficult to handle. It is also particularly problematic that the heat generated by the residual embers of the ashes / cigarettes is insufficiently insulated from the outside, so that a significantly perceptible heat occurs on the outer surfaces of the case.
- the inner container can be inserted into the case very simply by opening the case and inserting the inner container into the pocket formed between the rear wall and the insert wall part and then closing it. Since the case is usually transported in the state folded around the transverse folds of the inner container, no closure device is required to fix the inner container. Nevertheless, the case completely surrounding the inner container provides adequate heat and odor insulation. If the front wall of the case is also inserted into the insert wall part, the case is also in the opened condition even better and more tightly closed. On the side of the case on which the upper receiving part covers the lower storage part when closed, there is satisfactory thermal insulation. According to the invention, the storage area is now also satisfactorily insulated on the other side of the case by the plug-in wall part and the front wall set therein.
- Bending lines are preferably provided on the case, each of which is congruent with transverse folds of the inner container which can be accommodated in the case, in order to enable the case to be folded and thus the odor-insulating and heat-insulating enclosing of the inner container in the case.
- the case expediently has a closure in the form of a snap-in head in order to prevent unwanted opening and the associated odor nuisance.
- the edges of the insert flap preferably run diagonally across the rear wall in order to allow the inner container to be inserted stably and to provide good heat and odor insulation.
- the inside of the case is expediently coated with a very noble-smelling fragrance. Coating the inside is advantageous in that the fragrance is retained for a relatively long time compared to coating the outside.
- At least one closure flap formed on the insertion wall can be brought into engagement with an associated slot on the front wall of the case.
- This enables the case to be closed extremely reliably and at the same time in a functional manner, while also ensuring a visually appealing impression.
- At least one engagement recess is preferably provided on at least one locking tab in order to achieve particularly good securing in the closed state.
- the aesthetically pleasing impression is reinforced by the congruence of the closure flap with the rear wall, at least in the storage area.
- the problem can arise that the upper part of the case, which surrounds the receiving part of the bag-shaped inner container, does not remain, or only briefly, in a position angled in the region of the fold line of the inner case associated with the closure cross fold of the case, which prevents the universal usability of the waste container .
- a holding member is preferably on the plug-in wall part Stabilization of the case is provided in a position angled in the region of the bending line associated with the closure cross fold of the inner container.
- the upper part of the case, which surrounds the receiving part of the bag-shaped inner container reliably remains in a position angled in the region of the bending line assigned to the transverse cross fold of the inner container.
- the waste container can also be used reliably as a table ashtray. Since the upper part with the receiving part of the inner container that surrounds it, which contains ashes, cigarette butts, etc., does not tip over, contamination of the table on which the waste container rests is avoided by ash residues.
- the holding member has a tongue which runs back from its edge in the direction of the opening of the inner container and engages behind the case when the upper case part is angled in the region of the receiving part.
- a tongue which runs back from its edge in the direction of the opening of the inner container and engages behind the case when the upper case part is angled in the region of the receiving part.
- the plug-in wall part there is a tab which extends beyond the bending line assigned to the transverse locking fold and has a tab in the direction of the opening of the inner container in the retracting tongue because it is so easy to form.
- the tongue is expediently formed in the center of the plug-in wall part, since the case upper part surrounding the receiving part of the inner container is very well supported.
- the insert wall part having the holding member preferably extends at least approximately over the width of the front wall, since the holding member thus has a good and, in particular, non-rotatable hold on the insert wall part.
- this enables a holder to be held in the center of the plug-in wall part.
- a holder for a cigarette box and / or lighter can advantageously be removably attached to this holder.
- the flap with a bend line associated with the closure transverse fold of the inner container in the closed state of the case returning, overlapping the opening of the inner container tongue is provided.
- the fold-over tongue and the flap additionally stiffen the rear wall of the case in an angled position, thereby avoiding that the case upper part comprising the receiving part of the inner container bends back over the holding member and gets into an oblique to approximately flat position.
- the fold-over tongue overlapping the opening of the inner container ensures that the opening-side closure area of the inner container is folded down together with the tongue, so that a closure element, such as a snap-in head on the flap, can be snapped into a counterpart on the plug-in wall part without the opening-side closure region of the inner container between the snap head and the counterpart.
- a holding element for stabilizing the receiving part in the state angled with respect to the storage part is provided on the rear wall of the case, which simplifies the use of the waste container as a table ashtray simply and inexpensively.
- the case 1 shown in FIG. 1 has a plug-in wall part 2, into which a bag-shaped inner container 3 can be inserted very easily by inserting it.
- the bag-shaped inner container 3 expediently has somewhat shorter outer dimensions than the rear wall 4 of the case 1.
- the front wall 5 of the case 1 can be brought to cover by folding around the axis AA located between the rear wall 4 and front wall 5, that is to say about the one side edge 9 of the inner container 3, with the rear wall 4, so that the bag-shaped inner container 3 on all sides except the upper opening side is enclosed by the case 1 according to FIG. 2.
- the folding down of the front wall 5 of the case 1 is facilitated here by material weakening along a longitudinal longitudinal line 6 shown in FIG. 1, here approximately 2 mm wide, which is approximately congruent with a side edge 9 of the inserted inner container 3.
- the closed state of the case 1 is usually fixed by inserting the front wall 5 into the plug-in wall part 2.
- a pocket insert 7 made of cardboard, plastic or the like can be arranged in the case 1, the lower edge 8 and / or the side edge 10 of the inner container 3 is closed and is open towards the upper edge and preferably at least one side edge 9 of the inner container 3; this pocket insert significantly supports the heat and odor insulation of the case 1, which is of great importance in particular in the lower storage part 14 of the inner container 3. It can also be coated with a fine-smelling fragrance.
- a piece of nonwoven can also be arranged in two layers in the case 1 at least on the rear wall 4, preferably on the front and rear walls, and e.g. be glued.
- the front and rear walls of the case are spaced apart from one another when the inner container is opened in the region above a transverse fold 12 or 12 of the inner container and the ash is introduced into the upper receiving part 13 of the inner container 3. Opening the inner container 3 and case 1 on the lower transverse fold 12 enables use with a hand-held case 1, while opening the inner container on the upper transverse fold 11 and folding the inner container and case on the upper transverse fold 11 serve as table ashtrays.
- the opening of the inner container 3 can be significantly facilitated by bending lines 11a, 12a formed on the case 1, each congruent to the transverse folds 11, 12, with material weaknesses of the case 1.
- this holding device is designed as a fixing tab 17 punched out on the rear wall 4, which is provided here with a fastening device in the form of a recess 18 which can be brought into engagement with the counterpart 16.
- a snap head 15 and a counterpart 16 designed for this purpose e.g. the use of a Velcro fastener is possible.
- a slot for receiving a wall of a hinged match letter can also be provided on the case 1.
- the inner sides of the case 1 when folded can be coated with a noble-smelling scent.
- Figure 3 shows a further embodiment of a case 1 for a waste container according to the invention.
- the plug-in wall part 2 has two locking tabs 19, 20 which are connected here via the web 21 for stabilization and for aesthetic reasons.
- the closure tabs 19, 20 cover almost the entire surface of the rear wall of the storage part 14 of the case 1 and offer very good Thermal insulation of the cigarette ash to the outside, in particular by the approximately congruent under or overlap of the rear wall 4 by the plug-in wall part, here the closure flap 20.
- This is for closing the case 1 around the inner container 3 in each case on the front wall 5, parallel to the side edges 9, 10 extending slots 22,23 insertable.
- engagement recesses 24 - 31 are provided on the side edges of the locking tabs 19, 20 and on the slots 22, 23, respectively.
- the engagement recess 24, 25 of the upper closure tabs 19 engage in the engagement recesses 28, 29 of the upper slot 22 and the engagement recesses 26, 27 of the lower closure tab 20 engage in the engagement recesses 30, 31 of the lower slot 23.
- the plug-in wall part 3 with only one locking tab, for example at the level of the storage part 14. Because of the very deep engagement there is a reliable closure of the case 1.
- engagement recesses 24 - 31 for example diamond-shaped or slit-like shape or a different number.
- the case 1 according to FIG. 3 enables an aesthetically very appealing design in the closed state.
- at least one wire running parallel to a side edge 5, 10 of the case 1 can also be inserted in the case.
- the case 1 of the waste container according to the invention can, for example, also be attached to the car by means of Velcro strips or suction cups or through a loop etc. on the belt etc.
- FIG. 5 shows the use of the waste container, a cigarette 32 being deposited in a recess in the inner container 3, the ashes of which fall into the receiving part 13.
- FIGS. 7 to 12 A further case according to the invention is described below with reference to FIGS. 7 to 12, which, when used as a table ashtray, prevents the opened waste container from collapsing and falling over.
- the waste container for smoking and / or chewing gum waste shown in FIG. 7 also comprises a case 1 and an inner container 3 surrounded by a pocket insert 7.
- the case 1 comprises a rear wall 4, an insert wall part fixed to this in the area of a lower edge 8 and a side edge 10 2 and a front wall 5 which can be folded around the axis AA and inserted under the insert wall part 2.
- the waste container can be folded around the axis BB for transport in the state of the front wall 5 which is closed and inserted under the insert wall part 2.
- the receiving part 13 of the inner container 3 covered by the upper part 32 is about the axis BB in the region of the bending line associated with the locking cross fold 12 of the inner container 12a folded into a position angled upward from the storage area by about 90 ° and stabilized by distancing the front and back of the inner container 3 from one another by folding in the area of fold lines 48 on the inner container 3 and assigned bending lines on the case 1 above.
- the upper case 32 with the receiving part of the inner container 3 covered therewith is further stabilized by the tongue 34 of a holding member 35.
- the tongue 34 engages flatly on the outside of the front wall 5 of the case and prevents the case upper part 32 from folding back into a flat or oblique position in the direction of the arrow C about the axis BB.
- a flap 36 with a folding tongue 37 arranged thereon is arranged on the front wall 5 of the case, which, by stiffening the front wall 5 in the upper case 32, prevents this front wall from opposing the curvature shown in FIG buckles and bulges back over the tongue 34 of the holding member 35 in an approximately oblique position.
- the holding member 35 is formed in one piece on the plug-in wall part 2. In the illustrations shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, it extends upward over the height of the bending line 12a and the fold axis B-B.
- the holding member 35 is designed as a tab 38 which extends beyond the bending line 12a and the fold axis BB.
- a tongue 34 runs back from the tab 38.
- this tongue 34 can be brought behind the front wall 5 of the case 1 in the position of the upper case angled by approximately 90 °, so that it holds the upper case in a position angled by approximately 90 ° relative to the lower case.
- at least the tongue 34 shown in FIG. 9 is made of elastic material.
- the plug-in wall part 3 it can consist of elastic material such as synthetic leather etc. As shown here, it can be formed in one piece with the plug-in wall part 2 or sewn onto it or fastened in some other way.
- the tongue 34 can have integrated or applied elastic elements such as metallic elements, in particular steel springs, steel plates, etc.
- the holding member 35 is formed in one piece with the plug-in wall part 2, the tongue 34 and the tab 38 being formed by folding over and fastening with a seam 39.
- the tongue 34 of the holding member 35 is, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, arranged approximately in the middle of the plug-in wall part 2.
- the plug-in wall part 2 extends approximately over the width of the rear wall 4 in order to ensure a good hold of the holding member 35 and, in particular, to avoid its bending or folding.
- a receptacle 42 for a cigarette box 44 and a lighter 45 shown in FIGS. 11, 12 there is space in the area below the holding member 35 on the plug-in wall part 2 for a holder 40, to which, for example, a receptacle 42 for a cigarette box 44 and a lighter 45 shown in FIGS. 11, 12 can be removably attached.
- the receptacle 42 encompasses a cigarette box 44 and a lighter 45.
- the receptacle 42 can for example be made of plastic or leather etc.
- the receptacle shown in FIG. 12 has a counter-holder 41 assigned to the holder 40.
- holder 40 and counter-holder 41 consist of Velcro elements.
- the receptacle 42 can also be fix the receptacle 42 on the case 1 by means of a clip or by extending the tab of the holding member to form a ring which can be closed by a Velcro fastener.
- the receptacle 42 can also be rotatably attached to the case, for example by means of a rotatable locking head.
- An eyelet for a ring shown in FIG. 14, for example in the form of a keychain ring, can be attached to the case.
- the receptacle 42 can also comprise claws which engage elastically on the side of a cigarette box or on the lighter.
- a flap 36 with a flip-over tongue is used to further stiffen the upper case part in the state when it is folded by 90 ° relative to the lower case part 37 provided on the front wall 5.
- the folding tongue 37 as shown in FIG. 6, is sewn flat onto the flap 36, which is formed in one piece with the front wall 5.
- This arrangement has the particular advantage that when the receptacle is folded around the axis BB after use, the flip-over tongue 37 together with the likewise foldable closure region 43 of the inner container 3 must be folded over the axis DD, so that the inner container 3 closes reliably and prevents the odor and the snap-in head 15 can be snapped onto the counterpart 16 without the closure region 43 of the inner container 3 being able to lie between them.
- FIGS. 13-16 show another case suitable for use as a table ashtray with a holding member 35, by means of which the receiving part 13 is held in an upwardly angled position relative to the storage part 14 lying on a table, for example, and thus also kept open.
