Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container for accommodating objects, for example Tools, small parts or the like.
  • objects for example Tools, small parts or the like.
  • Necessity to such containers, eg. B. for transport purposes, to stack and in Stacked state to connect.
  • a packaging container for stacking which is also for housing of tool is suitable.
  • Contains this packaging container four side walls, a bottom, a cover and one of the shape of the tools adapted interior.
  • the side walls and the floor are made a dimensionally stable material, and the outer surfaces of the side walls are with Locking means for engaging fasteners for connecting each provided with an overlying second packaging container.
  • the side walls, the front walls and the floor consist of one one-piece component.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a container, which is stack with a simple structure, has a high strength and optionally even in a stacked state still usable, so an access on its content.
  • the invention proposes a container with the in the claim 1 mentioned features. Further developments of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.
  • the container proposed by the invention thus contains two side walls, wherein the stacking between superimposed containers between the side walls is effective. So it takes a load above the vertical side walls, which are very stable in this direction are.
  • the body of the container, which is arranged between the side walls is, does not need to record any load caused by the stacking. It This makes it possible to form the container for stacking very stable, without having to have in all parts a stability that only for the Stacking would be required, but not for the other purposes of the container.
  • the stacking device complementary training at the top or bottom of the Has side walls. There are no additional facilities required which would have to be made as separate components.
  • foot-like projections and recesses formed on the top of the side walls are. It is not just a stacking option created here an alignment in the correct state causes, but also for each other container created a secure support on the ground.
  • the foot-like projections may also be useful if the container in the Individual case is not stacked, or for the lowest container.
  • the stacking device and / or the side walls are designed such that the corpora stacked containers have a distance from each other. Between The individual containers are thus, with the possible exception of the side walls, a vertical distance exists. It will be taken care of that too with tolerances in the production no load of the side walls connecting Parts of the container takes place.
  • connection device between the side walls is effective.
  • the connection device also absorbs certain forces. The displacement of this connection device on the side walls supports the possibility of the body only in Regard to its actual function, namely the placement of objects, train.
  • the Connecting device for two superimposed side walls having single connection element.
  • the connecting element can be locked with formations of at least one side wall. It This training may be projections that during manufacture the sidewall can be easily made with. This adds extra Manufacturing steps not required during production. It is conceivable that Form connecting means so that they exist as a separate element is that is attached after stacking two containers.
  • the connecting element is mounted on a side wall of the container, in particular pivotable. This is one way to attach the connector to attach the associated side wall captive.
  • the connector when a container is not stacked, does not bother, can be provided according to the invention in a development that the Connecting element on an associated side wall in a rest position can be attached.
  • the container handles having, in particular attached to the side walls.
  • the handles in their Rest position at least partially in recesses in the outside of the side walls lie. In this way, they are only slightly over and disturbing therefore only a little.
  • the depressions may be designed such that a user with your hand next to the handle can engage in it to the handle out in particular, swing out.
  • the body as a separate Component is formed, which then subsequently with the side walls is connected.
  • the side walls make the body from a completely different material.
  • One way of manufacturing is to make the body of aluminum, namely from a relatively thin aluminum sheet. This can then pressed or screwed to the side walls in the edge region become.
  • this additional Have side parts ie sheet metal parts, which are parallel to the existing plastic Sidewalls run.
  • These can be made of thin sheet metal be whose edges are bent vertically. These bent edges can then be connected to the rest of the corpus to which they are parallel become. This creates a circumferential double-walled edge, the for pressing the body with the plastic side walls can be exploited.
  • the border can contain cutouts that are called Rag pressed outwards. They form barbs when pressed in in corresponding grooves of the side walls in existing there openings intervention.
  • an elastic material be present. For example, in the groove Gummifaden be inserted, which is dimensioned so that he has a corresponding Bias generated. He then presses the barbs in the intended Holes.
  • the reinforced by additional side panels made of sheet metal body has the effect that it can be made very stable and warp-free. This is also true for relatively thin sheets, especially if the side walls connected to the plastic outer side walls become.
  • the connection can of course also other than above described happen, for example, in that the edges of the body be bent inwards and thereby form a flange. Through this Flange through a screw with the existing plastic Sidewalls are made.
  • This division of the different Functions of a container namely in the torsion-resistant body and the plastic side walls, has great advantages. All functions, that deal with stacking, transporting, touching and so on can be installed in the plastic side panels. There handles can be attached, rollers for transporting, aligning and Facilities for stacking the containers, etc.
  • the Body at least partially integral with one or both side walls train. This also has manufacturing advantages.
  • the Container has a bottom, a front wall, a rear wall and a lid, which can be opened.
  • the floor, the back wall and the front wall made from a single piece of aluminum sheet be, with the lid then close the remaining top can.
  • the lid may be both a sliding lid as well as a hinged lid.
  • the container can be constructed in that the body has a bottom, a rear wall and a top, while the front can be opened, for example in the manner of a Flap. In this case, it is possible to open the container even then, ie in to use its actual function if it is not in a stack at the is arranged at the highest point.
  • the body has drawers, for example can be moved in guides. Even then, the container can used when placed in a pile not at the top is.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show, simplified, two superimposed containers according to the invention.
