Definitions
- the invention relates to a crate with a bottom and vertical outer sidewalls and a partitioning grid disposed in the crate, dividing the interior of the crate into compartments in which cylinder formed containers are to be accommodated, and wherein supporting sidewall parts of at least one compartment define an imaginary cylinder whose axis diverge from vertical and slants by an angle relative to the bottom of the crate.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a crate of the above mentioned type which is suitable for a firm and reliable accommodation and transportation of cylinderformed containers in the compartments of the crate.
- crates to be used for the above mentioned purpose are known. All of these crates comprise bottlesupporting sidewall parts of the compartments which extend vertically to the bottom of the crate.
- the crates furthermore comprise a lot of different complicated clamping devices or features in the compartments with the aim of securing bottles of different diameters in the compartments. These clamping features make the crates difficult and expensive to produce. In fact a very odd number of these crates is known to be used commercially.
- CH-A 462 035 discloses a crate where two bottlesupporting sidewalls of rectangulary compartments diverge from vertical to the bottom of the crate and slants by an angle relative to the bottom.
- the crate is disclosed for the use of storing wine bottles in an inclined position to horizontal.
- the crate is only disclosed for the use of accommodation of wine bottles with the largest diameter which can be inserted during sufficient clamping action in the compartment. Due to the rectangulary cross section of the crate compartments, support of the large diameter wine bottles is only given in a few points or lines where the cylindrical bottles touch the primarily planar sides of the compartment. Should one try to place a bottle with a smaller diameter in the compartment, the bottle will try to raise or upright itself as much as possible in the compartment.
- the crate according to the invention is characterized in that the sidewall parts of the compartment, which define an imaginary cylinder, are at least partially formed by guide ribs connected to at least one sidewall of the compartment, said sidewall being non-parallel with the slanting axis of the imaginary cylinder.
- a cylinderformed container whose diameter is essentially the same as the diameter of the imaginary cylinder defined by the sidewall parts of the compartment of this novel design assumes a slanting position in the crate at an angle which is the same as the angle at which the axis of the imaginary cylinder slants relative to the bottom.
- a cylinderformed container of smaller diameter assumes a less slanting or so to say more upright position in the compartment of the crate, said smaller container being supported at the bottom at one side and at the top at the diagonally opposite side by the above mentioned sidewall parts of the compartment.
- Containers placed in the crate which have a diameter lying between a maximum and a minimum diameter determined by the shape of the compartment thus always assume a firm position in the compartment due to the support by the ribs.
- novel crate of the invention as it can be used with a special advantage for safe and firm accommodation and transportation of cylinderformed containers of different diameters such as the well-known glass bottles for beer and soft drinks and PET-bottles for mineral water and soft drinks.
- the angle between the axis of the imaginary cylinder and the bottom of the crate lies between 85° and 89°.
- Use of the novel crate has shown that this interval of the angle is very expedient when using the crate for accommodation and transportation of the above mentioned well-known bottles with diameters between 58 mm and 65 mm.
- the invention also relates to use of the crate according to the invention as defined in claim 10.
- Fig. 1 shows very diagrammatically a crate for the accommodation of bottleformed containers.
- the crate consists of a bottom 1 and vertical side walls 3 to 6.
- the side walls can be provided with grip openings 7 and 8.
- the crate contains a partitioning grid 9, dividing the interior of the crate into compartments 10, in which bottles or similar containers can be placed.
- the partitioning grid 9, together with the side walls 3 to 6, forms the side walls of the compartments 10.
- Fig. 2 shows diagrammatically a vertical compartment of a crate of the type shown in Fig. 1, having a partitioning grid 9 which divides the interior of the crate into compartments 10.
- the crate is symmetrical relative to the centre plane 11.
- Each compartment 10 has opposing sidewall parts 12, 13; 14, 15, which are designed for laterally supporting a container, such as a bottle 16 or 17, placed in a compartment 10.
- Said sidewall parts define an imaginary cylinder whose axis A slants at a certain angle ⁇ relative to the bottom 1 of the crate. Said angle lies, for example, between 85° and 89°, and preferably between 86° and 87°.
- the axes A of the imaginary cylinders slant towards the centre plane 11.
- Bottles of different diameters can be accommodated and held firmly in the compartments of the crate during transportation.
- Fig. 2 shows a bottle 16 placed in a compartment 10, which bottle has a diameter which is essentially the same as the diameter of the imaginary cylinder defined by the side wall parts 12 and 13. The bottle is therefore the largest bottle which can be accommodated in the compartment.
- Fig. 2 is also shown a bottle 17 of smaller diameter placed in a compartment 10. The bottle 17 is in fact the smallest bottle which can still be accommodated in a firm position in a compartment 10.
- the bottle 17 of small diameter stands in a vertical position with its full bottom on the bottom 1 of the crate and is supported laterally at the bottom at one side by the sidewall part 15 and at the top by the diagonally opposite sidewall part 14. There is a remaining space left at the bottom between the sidewall part 14 and the bottle 17.
- the bottle 16 of large diameter rests at the bottom side with its bottom edge on the bottom 1 of the crate, and is supported laterally both at the top and at the bottom by the opposing sidewall parts 12 and 13.
- the above means that bottles having a diameter greater than that of the smallest bottle 17 slants at an angle in the compartment, the angle at which the bottle slants increases with increasing diameter of the bottle, until the maximum accommodatable bottle diameter is reached together with slanting angle ⁇ .
- Figs. 4-7 show the design of the compartments of the crate according to the invention.
- compartment 21 and 22 are shown in Figs. 4-7.
- the compartment 21 adjoins the sidewall 6 of the crate, and the compartment 22 adjoins the centre plane 11 of the crate.
- the sidewall parts of the compartment 21 which define a slanting imaginary cylinder in this compartment are the slanting wall part 23 of the partitioning grid 9, which wall part is curved in the plane of Figs. 5-7, and the guide ribs 24 and 25 connected to said wall part 23, on the one hand, and the guide ribs 27, 28 and 29 connected to side wall 6 and hollow reinforcement columns 26, on the other.
- the sidewall parts of the compartment 22 which in this compartment define a slanting imaginary cylinder are the slanting curved wall part 23 and the guide ribs 30 and 31 connected thereto, on the one hand, and the guide ribs 33, 34 and 35 connected to the upright middle wall 32 of the partitioning grid 9, on the other.
- the wall part 23 and the guide ribs 24 and 25 are connected at the bottom side, near bottom 1 of the crate, to a foot lobe 36 curved in the plane of Figs. 5-7.
- the guide ribs 33, 34, 35 are connected at the bottom side, near the bottom 1 of the crate to a foot lobe 37 curved in the plane of Figs. 5-7.
- the foot lobes 36 and 37 provide better stability of the guide ribs, but they are not a determining factor for the diameter of the imaginary cylinder in a compartment. It is also possible to omit the foot lobes 36 and 37 and to make the wall part 23 and the guide ribs run through to the bottom 1 of the crate.
- edges of the wall part 23 coming into contact with the bottles and the guide ribs 24, 25 and 33, 34, 35 merge smoothly into the side of the foot lobe 36, 37 facing the inside of a compartment 21, 22 respectively, as can be seen in Figs. 4-7.
- the invention is explained for a crate in which the compartments are arranged in straight rows (for example, four across the width and six along the length of the crate).
- the principle of the slanting" compartments can also be used in crates of a different type with rows which are staggered relative to each other.
- the axes of the imaginary cylinders in the compartments can also slant towards both centre planes of the crate.
