Die in Fig. 2 wiedergegebene Dose besteht in an sich bekannter Weise aus einem Unterteil 1 zur Aufnahme des Doseninhalts und einem Deckel 2, der bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel auf ein Gewinde 3 am oberen Umfangsrand des Unterteils 1 aufgeschraubt wird. Anstelle eines Gewindes kann auch ein Schnappsitz oder eine andere an sich bekannte Art der Deckelbefestigung vorgesehen werden.The can shown in Fig. 2 is known per se Way from a lower part 1 for receiving the can contents and a cover 2, which in the illustrated embodiment screwed onto a thread 3 on the upper peripheral edge of the lower part 1 becomes. Instead of a thread, a Snap fit or another type of lid attachment known per se be provided.

Bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist auf dem unteren Abschnitt des Unterteils 1 auf dem Außenumfang an diametral gegenüberliegenden Stellen eine Abflachung 4 vorgesehen, die eine Standfläche bildet, so daß die Dose auch hochkant positioniert werden kann, wie dies aus Fig. 1 und 4 ersichtlich ist. In the illustrated embodiment is on the bottom Section of the lower part 1 on the outer circumference at diametrically opposite locations provided a flattening 4, the forms a footprint so that the can is positioned upright can be, as can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 4 is.

Eine derartige Abflachung 4 zur Ausbildung einer Standfläche kann sich auch über die gesamte Höhe der Dose einschließlich des Deckels 2 erstrecken, wenn anstelle eines Schraubverschlusses eine andere Art der Deckelbefestigung, beispielsweise ein Schnappverschluß, vorgesehen wird. Ebenso kann eine solche Standfläche 4 auch nur einseitig am Außenumfang der ansonsten runden Dose vorgesehen werden.Such a flattening 4 to form a footprint can also include the entire height of the can of the cover 2, if instead of a screw cap another type of lid attachment, for example a snap lock is provided. Likewise, a such footprint 4 only on one side on the outer circumference of the otherwise round box can be provided.

Wie Fig. 3 und 5 zeigen, ist der untere Abschnitt des Unterteils 1 auf dem gesamten Umfang von einem zusätzlichen Wandabschnitt 5 umgeben, der in einem radialen Abstand vom Dosenunterteil 1 angeordnet ist. Der Wandabschnitt 5 ist etwa auf halber Höhe des Unterteils 1 an einem radial abstehenden Flansch oder über den Umfang verteilte Stege 6 angesetzt bzw. angeformt, und er erstreckt sich senkrecht nach unten bis kurz über die Außenseite des Bodens des Dosenunterteils 1, wie Fig. 5 deutlicher zeigt. Die Abflachungen 4 sind auf diesem zusätzlichen Wandabschnitt 5 ausgebildet, so daß der Dosenunterteil 1 selbst seine runde Form wie bei einer üblichen Dose beibehält. Wenn einzelne Stege 6 vorgesehen werden, können diese auch abtrennbar ausgebildet sein.3 and 5 show, the lower portion of the lower part 1 on the entire circumference of an additional wall section 5 surrounded by a radial distance from the lower part of the can 1 is arranged. The wall section 5 is approximately on half the height of the lower part 1 on a radially projecting Flange or webs 6 distributed over the circumference or molded on, and it extends vertically down to short over the outside of the bottom of the can base 1, as Fig. 5 shows more clearly. The flats 4 are on this additional Wall section 5 formed so that the lower part of the can 1 itself retains its round shape as in a conventional can. If individual webs 6 are provided, they can also be detachable.

Der Dosenunterteil 1 besteht vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff, wobei der zusätzliche Wandabschnitt 5 angeformt werden kann, während der Deckel 2 vorzugsweise aus Blech besteht, aber auch aus anderen Materialien wie Kunststoff bestehen kann. Es ist auch möglich, den Wandabschnitt 5 mit Abflachungen 4 als gesondertes Bauteil vorzusehen, das beispielsweise mit Preßsitz oder Schnappsitz auf den Dosenunterteil 1 aufgeschoben werden kann.The lower part 1 of the can is preferably made of plastic, the additional wall section 5 can be molded on, while the lid 2 is preferably made of sheet metal, but also can consist of other materials such as plastic. It is also possible, the wall section 5 with flats 4 as a separate To provide component, for example, with a press fit or snap fit on the lower part 1 of the can can.

Der Innendurchmesser des zusätzlichen Wandabschnitts 5 ist so ausgelegt, daß dieser größer ist als der Außendurchmesser des mit dem Gewinde 3 versehenen oberen Abschnitts des Dosenunterteils 1 bzw. diesem im wesentlichen entspricht (Fig. 6), während der Außenumfang des unteren Abschnitts des Dosenunterteils 1 im Durchmesser etwas geringer ausgelegt ist als der obere Abschnitt, so daß zwischen Wandabschnitt 5 und der Außenseite des unteren Dosenabschnitts sich ein Ringraum 7 ergibt, der zur Aufnahme des oberen, mit dem Gewinde 3 versehenen Abschnitts eines anderen Dosenunterteils 1 geeignet ist. Damit können Dosenunterteile 1 übereinander gestapelt werden, wie dies Fig. 6 zeigt. Diese Stapelbarkeit der leeren Dosenunterteile bringt erhebliche Vorteile bei der Herstellung und dem Versand der leeren Dosenunterteile sowie bei deren Steuerung in einer automatischen Abfüllanlage mit sich.The inner diameter of the additional wall section 5 is so designed that this is larger than the outer diameter of the with the threaded 3 upper portion of the lower part of the can 1 or essentially corresponds to this (FIG. 6), while the outer periphery of the lower portion of the can base 1 is designed slightly smaller in diameter than the upper section, so that between wall section 5 and the An annular space 7 is located on the outside of the lower can section results in that for receiving the upper, provided with the thread 3 Section of another can base 1 is suitable. So can bottom parts 1 can be stacked one above the other, as shown in Fig. 6. This stackability of the empty can bases brings significant advantages in manufacturing and the dispatch of the empty can bases and their control in an automatic bottling plant.

Wie Fig. 6 zeigt, kommen die zusätzlichen Wandabschnitte 5 der Dosenunterteile 1 beim Stapeln übereinander zu liegen, wobei eine Zentrierung der Dosenunterteile relativ zueinander durch Anlage des Gewindes 3 am Innenumfang des schürzenförmigen Wandabschnitts 5 vorgesehen werden kann. Zusätzlich ist in dem Ringraum 7 am Außenumfang des Dosenunterteils 1 ein Absatz 8 ( Fig. 5 ) angeformt, an dem in Fig. 6 der obere Rand des benachbarten Dosenunterteils 1 zum Anliegen kommt. Hierdurch wird die Stabilität des Stapels verbessert.As shown in FIG. 6, the additional wall sections 5 come Can parts 1 to lie one above the other when stacking, whereby centering the lower parts of the can relative to each other Thread 3 abuts the inner circumference of the skirt Wall section 5 can be provided. In addition, in the Annular space 7 on the outer circumference of the lower part 1 of a can 8 (Fig. 5), on which in Fig. 6 the upper edge of the adjacent Can bottom part 1 comes to mind. hereby the stability of the stack is improved.

Die doppelwandige Ausgestaltung des Dosenunterteils 1 kann auch ohne Abflachungen 4 vorgesehen werden, um die Dosenunterteile 1 stapeln zu können. Umgekehrt kann eine Abflachung bzw. Standfläche 4 auch an einer ansonsten runden Dose ohne zusätzlichen Wandabschnitt 5 vorgesehen werden, beispielsweise durch Abflachung des Dosenkörpers selbst. Vorzugsweise wird eine Abflachung auf einem zusätzlichen Wandabschnitt 5 vorgesehen, wie dies in den Figuren dargestellt ist.The double-walled design of the lower part 1 of the can can also be provided without flattening 4 to the can bases 1 to be able to stack. Conversely, a flattening or Stand area 4 also on an otherwise round box without additional Wall section 5 are provided, for example by Flattening of the can body itself Flattening provided on an additional wall section 5, as shown in the figures.

Es sind weitere Abwandlungen der Erfindung möglich. So kann sich der schürzenförmige Wandabschnitt 5 auch nur um einen Teil des Umfangs eines Dosenunterteils 1 erstrecken, um eine Stapelbarkeit zu erreichen. Auch kann die Formgebung des zusätzlichen Wandabschnitts 5 in anderer Weise als dargestellt ausgebildet werden. Beispielsweise kann auf dem Außenumfang des Wandabschnitts 5 eine Riffelung oder dgl. vorgesehen werden, damit der Dosenunterteil 1 beim Aufschrauben des Deckels 2 besser gehalten werden kann. Hierfür dienen aber auch die als Standflächen vorgesehenen Abflachungen 4. Des weiteren kann der Außenumfang des Wandabschnitts 5 auch eine polygonale Form haben, wie Fig. 9 zeigt.Further modifications of the invention are possible. So can the apron-shaped wall section 5 is only one Extend part of the circumference of a can base 1 to a Achieve stackability. Also, the shape of the additional Wall section 5 in a different way than shown be formed. For example, on the outer circumference of the wall section 5, corrugation or the like can be provided, so that the lower part 1 when screwing the Lid 2 can be kept better. But serve for this also the flats 4 provided as standing surfaces. Furthermore, the outer circumference of the wall section 5 can also have a polygonal shape, as shown in FIG. 9.

Während bei der Ausgestaltung mit Abflachung eine ansonsten runde Dose vorgesehen wird, kann bei der Ausgestaltung nach der Erfindung mit einem schürzenförmigen Wandabschnitt 5 am Dosenumfang auch eine andere Dosenform vorgesehen werden, beispielsweise eine polygonale.While otherwise in the design with flattening round box is provided, can be designed according to the invention with an apron-shaped wall section 5 am Another can shape can be provided, for example a polygonal.

Ein schürzenförmiger Wandabschnitt 5 mit vorzugsweise zwei Abflachungen 4 an diametral gegenüberliegenden Stellen kann auch als Verpackungselement in der Weise ausgebildet sein, daß ein beispielsweise aus Karton oder anderem Material vorgeformter Wandabschnitt 5 auf den Dosenunterteil 1 zu Präsentationszwecken aufgesteckt wird, um eine Dose hochkant aufstellen zu können und um den Dosenunterteil 1 beim Füllen und dgl. leichter positionieren zu können, während beim Gebrauch der Dose dieser Wandabschnitt 5 auch abgenommen werden kann. Hierbei hat der zusätzliche Wandabschnitt auch eine Schutzfunktion, indem er den Dosenunterteil gegen Verkratzen durch Kanten und dgl. schützt.An apron-shaped wall section 5 with preferably two Flattenings 4 at diametrically opposite locations can also be designed as a packaging element in such a way that a pre-formed one, for example, from cardboard or other material Wall section 5 on the lower part 1 for presentation purposes is attached to stand up a can to be able and around the lower part 1 of the can when filling and the like. easier to position while using the Can this wall section 5 can also be removed. in this connection the additional wall section also has a protective function, by protecting the lower part of the can against scratching through edges and the like protects.

Fig. 7 zeigt eine Dose in Seitenansicht und im Querschnitt und getrennt davon einen Wandabschnitt 5 in Form eines gesonderten Ringkörpers, der auf die Dose aufsetzbar ist, wie die unteren Abbildungen in Fig. 7 zeigen. Hierbei sind auf dem Innenumfang des Ringkörpers 5 vorzugsweise elastisch verformbare Lippen 9 angeformt, mit denen der Ringkörper am Dosenumfang zum Anliegen kommt.Fig. 7 shows a can in side view and in cross section and separate from it a wall section 5 in the form of a separate one Ring body that can be placed on the box, like the lower ones 7 show illustrations. Here are on the inner circumference of the ring body 5, preferably elastically deformable lips 9 integrally formed, with which the ring body to bear on the circumference of the can comes.

Fig. 8 zeigt eine Ausführungsform des Dosenunterteils mit über den Umfang beabstandeten Nasen 10 im Anlagebereich der Lippen 9 des Ringkörpers 5, die in die Zwischenräume zwischen den Nasen 10 eingreifen. Auf diese Weise wird eine Schnappverbindung zwischen Ringkörper 5 und Dosenunterteil ausgebildet. Fig. 8 shows an embodiment of the lower part of the can with the circumference spaced lugs 10 in the contact area of the lips 9 of the ring body 5, which in the spaces between the Intervene 10. This way, a snap connection formed between the ring body 5 and the lower part of the can.

Bei einer solchen Schnappverbindung ist es möglich, den Ringkörper 5 gegenüber dem Dosenkörper beispielsweise so auszurichten, daß die Standfläche 4 der Beschriftung des Dosendekkels oder dgl. entspricht. Hierfür genügt es, wenn nur einzelne Nasen bzw. Rippen 10 auf dem Dosenumfang vorgesehen werden.With such a snap connection, it is possible for the ring body 5 to be aligned with the can body, for example, that the footprint 4 of the label of the can lid or the like. For this it is sufficient if only a few Noses or ribs 10 are provided on the can circumference.

Das Vorsehen eines separaten Ringkörpers 5, der auf die Dose aufsetzbar ist, hat auch den Vorteil, daß unterschiedliche Ausführungsformen des Ringkörpers für ansonsten gleiche Dosen verwendet werden können. Hierbei können verschiedene Abnehmer mit unterschiedlichen Gebindeformen versorgt werden, indem auf die ansonsten gleichen Dosen verschiedene Ringausführungen aufgesetzt werden.The provision of a separate ring body 5 on the can is attachable also has the advantage that different Embodiments of the ring body for otherwise identical cans can be used. Different customers can do this can be supplied with different container shapes by otherwise the same cans are different ring designs be put on.
