Abstract

The invention relates to a container designed for liquid transport and storage, including liquid detergents for use in the field of graphics, comprising a nearly rectangular vessel with rounded-off angles, a screwed closure, a vent pipe leading inside the container and, on its upper part, a hollow handle also acting as the vent pipe.

Description

Flüssigkeitsbehälter zum Transport und zur Lagerung- von Flüssigkeiten Liquid container for the transport and storage of liquids
Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Flüssigkeitsbehälter zum Transport und zur Lagerung von Flüssigkeiten, insbesondere von flüssigen Waschmitteln für das graphische Gewerbe, bestehend aus einem annähernd rechteckigen Gefäß mit abgerundeten Enden, einem Schraubverschluß, einem in das Innere des Behälters führenden Belüftungsrohr und einem am oberen Teil des Behälters befindlichen Tragegriff.The present invention relates to a liquid container for the transport and storage of liquids, in particular liquid detergents for the graphics industry, consisting of an approximately rectangular vessel with rounded ends, a screw cap, a ventilation pipe leading into the interior of the container and an upper part the carrying handle.
Derartige Flüssigkeitsbehälter sind bekannt und haben sich in der Praxis bewährt. Sofern derartige Flüssigkeitsbehälter kein in das Innere des Behälters führendes Belüftungsrohr aufweisen, neigen sie beim Entleeren zum "Gluckern" und somit zu einer ungleichmäßigen und schwer kontrollierbaren Entleerung.Such liquid containers are known and have proven themselves in practice. If such liquid containers do not have a ventilation pipe leading into the interior of the container, they tend to "gurgling" when emptied and thus to an uneven and difficult to control emptying.
Der Einbau von Entlüftungsrohren ist mit nicht unerheblichem Aufwand verbunden, und zwar gleichermaßen bei Metallbehältern wie bei Plastikbehältern.The installation of ventilation pipes is associated with a not inconsiderable amount of effort, both for metal containers and for plastic containers.
Die Erfindung hat sich die Aufgabe gestellt, einen Flüssigkeitsbehälter zu entwickeln, der ein in das Innere des Behälters führendes Belüftungsrohr aufweist aber dennoch leicht herstellbar ist.The object of the invention is to develop a liquid container which has an aeration pipe leading into the interior of the container but which is nevertheless easy to produce.
Diese Aufgabe kann überraschend einfach dadurch gelöst werden, daß der Tragegriff innen hohl ausgestaltet wird und gleichzeitig als Belüftungsrohr dient. Vorzugsweise geschieht dies dadurch, daß das eine Ende des hohl ausgestalteten Tragegriffs in offener Verbindung mit dem Inneren des Behälters steht und das andere Ende über die Befestigungsstelle des Griffes mit dem Behälter hinaus als offene Leitung ausgestaltet ist, die im Inneren des Schraubverschlusses endet . Bereits in der Praxis bewährt haben sich Behälter, die an den Befestigungsstellen des Tragegriffs mit dem Behälter Verstärkungsrippen aufweisen.This task can be solved surprisingly simply by making the handle hollow on the inside and at the same time serving as a ventilation tube. This is preferably done in that one end of the hollow carrying handle is in open connection with the interior of the container and the other end is configured beyond the attachment point of the handle with the container as an open line which ends in the interior of the screw cap. Containers that have reinforcing ribs at the fastening points of the handle with the container have already proven themselves in practice.
Um die erfindungsgemäßen Flüssigkeitsbehälter leicht und sicher übereinanderstapeln zu können, weist der Boden vorzugsweise Vertiefungen auf, die den Tragegriff und gegebenenfalls die Verstärkungsrippen umfassen. Sofern auch der Schraubverschluß so hoch ausgestaltet sein sollte, daß er beim Übereinanderstapeln der Behälter an die Unterseite des Behälters stößt, kann auch dieser Teil der Unterseite vertieft ausgestaltet sein.In order to be able to stack the liquid containers according to the invention easily and safely on top of one another, the base preferably has depressions which comprise the handle and, if appropriate, the reinforcing ribs. If the screw closure should also be designed so high that it bumps against the underside of the container when the containers are stacked on top of one another, this part of the underside can also be recessed.
Ein derartiger, gut stapelbarer Flüssigkeitsbehälter ist bereits bekannt aus dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster 89 09 327.5 der Anmelderin. Ein Nachteil dieses bekannten Behälters ist jedoch, daß ihm ein in das Innere des Behälters führendes Belüftungsrohr fehlt. Versuche ein derartiges Belüftungsrohr im Inneren des Behälters einzubauen und mit dem Behälter stabil zu befestigen, sind gescheitert.Such a well stackable liquid container is already known from the German utility model 89 09 327.5 of the applicant. A disadvantage of this known container, however, is that it lacks a ventilation pipe leading into the interior of the container. Attempts to install such a ventilation pipe in the interior of the container and to secure it with the container have failed.
Die erfindungsgemäße Flüssigkeit des Behälters ist in einer typischen Ausführungsform in den anliegenden Figuren 1 und 2 näher erläutert .The liquid of the container according to the invention is explained in more detail in a typical embodiment in the attached FIGS. 1 and 2.
Figur 1 zeigt den oberen Teil des erfindungsgemäßen Flüssigkeitsbehälter in der Seitenansicht und darüber hinaus im Schnitt die Weiterführung des Innen hohl ausgestalteten Tragegriffes bis in den Schraubverschluß.Figure 1 shows the upper part of the liquid container according to the invention in side view and also in section the continuation of the hollow handle designed into the screw cap.
Figur 2 zeigt den erfindungsgemäßen Behälter in der Aufsicht, wobei der Tragegriff und seine Befestigung auf einer Verstärkungsrippe erkennbar ist .Figure 2 shows the container according to the invention in top view, the handle and its attachment on a reinforcing rib can be seen.
Weiterhin erkennbar ist in beiden Figuren der Schraubverschluß, welcher jeweils zur Hälfte mit und zur Hälfte ohne den Deckel des Schraubverschlusses dargestellt ist. Also evident in both figures is the screw closure, which is shown in each case half with and half without the lid of the screw closure.
