Definitions

  • the invention relates to a spray can with a can body for receiving the Spray material, with the can body being assigned a spray device for the spray material is, and a lid to protect the spray device, the can body or the cover a color recognition element to display the color of the Spray material is assigned.
  • Spray cans of the type mentioned above have long been known in practice and exist in a wide variety of embodiments.
  • the can body usually designed cylindrical, the spray device on one of the Base areas of the cylinder is arranged.
  • the spray device is usually by one Spray head formed with a spray valve.
  • the lid is also often in the Essentially cylindrical, with a base of the cylinder is omitted in order to couple to the can body in the region of the spray device.
  • Spray cans of the type mentioned at the outset are often used to spray colored paint Paints used.
  • Lacquer is often either the lid according to the one taken Paint color completely colored or part of the can body painted accordingly. This means, for example, when buying the spray can, the color of the in the can body recorded paint can be determined safely.
  • the color detection element is frequently problematic in the known spray cans again from the can body or the lid - e.g. B. for separate recycling of these components - to solve.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of a spray can to design and develop in such a way that a simple Detach the color recognition element from the can body or the lid is achieved with structurally simple means.
  • the above object is achieved by means of a spray can
  • the spray can in question formed such that the color detection element as a ring-like outer jacket a hollow spherical layer or a hollow truncated cone, each with one upper smaller and a lower larger passage is formed and the Outer jacket extends substantially from the upper passage to the lower one Passage extending through slot and / or that Color detection element has a predetermined breaking point and / or that the color detection element has an engagement passage or an engagement recess.
  • the color detection element could be a predetermined break at a predetermined breaking point furthermore, they can then simply be detached from the can body or lid.
  • the engagement passage or the engagement recess could be dimensioned in this way be that the color recognition element either with the hand or a finger or graspable with a special instrument and from the can body or Lid would be detachable.
  • the color recognition element could be the can body or reversibly assigned to the lid or preferably in the lid be arranged reversibly. This enables the color recognition element in the event of an inadvertently incorrect assignment to the can body or the Lids are removed again and a correct color recognition element is assigned can be. Furthermore, with regard to recycling the spray can their use a separation of the components of the spray can - in this case one Separation of the color recognition element from the can body - possible. If that Color detection element made of a different material than the can body is a material-specific disposal or reuse of the Components are done.
  • the outer jacket could be assigned to the can body in this way or on the Can bodies are arranged so that the spray device quasi from the top smaller passage protrudes. In other words, the sprayer would be in in this case surrounded by the outer jacket.
  • the outer jacket has a relative large color recognition area, which simplifies the overall color recognition.
  • the outer jacket has a predeterminable material thickness that depends on the respective Use case is to be stopped. Especially if the design is not too thick of the outer jacket, the outer jacket could have a certain elasticity. A plastic material is particularly suitable for the outer material on. Due to an existing elasticity, the outer jacket could have areas of the can body provide a mutual clamping effect, which leads to a safe Assignment of the color recognition element to the can body contributes. With in other words, an unintentional loosening of the color recognition element largely avoided by the can body.
  • Spray cans for paints or varnishes usually have a sealing fold, which ultimately is ring-shaped directly around the spray device. This creates a seal reached between the can body and the spray device, which is usually as separate element is attached to the can body. Furthermore, a conventional one Spray can have another fold or sealing fold, the one in the top Area of the can body is formed and ultimately as a reinforcement serves. With regard to a particularly simple assignment of the outer casing the can body could be the inner edge of the upper passage of the outer jacket - widening inwards - beveled. When assigning the outer jacket due to the bevel, the outer jacket slips to the can body thus easier via the ring-like sealing fold between the spraying device and the can body.
  • the outer jacket in the area of Outer edge of the lower passage - to the lower passage or to its free end - be tapered.
  • Such an outdoor area of the outer sheath provided tapering of the outer sheath quasi in the direction its inner axis makes it easier to slide or slide along Outer jacket along the ring-like fold or sealing fold in the upper area of the Can body.
  • the inside diameter of the top passage may be slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the um the spray device formed, ring-like sealing fold of the can body.
  • the sealing fold should be one Have area with a smaller outer diameter.
  • the outer jacket could have a smaller outer diameter as far as that Sealing fold are guided until the outer sheath quasi below the sealing fold in arrives in an area of smaller diameter.
  • the outer jacket could be the outer edge of the lower passage preferably in a form-fitting manner on the inner circumference of the in the upper region of the can body trained, ring-like sealing fold can be arranged.
  • This sealing fold forms a connection between a side surface and an upper one Base area of the can body.
  • the outer diameter of the outer jacket could be in the area of the lower passage be slightly larger than the inside diameter of the top of the Can body formed, ring-like fold or sealing fold of the can body. This in turn could cause a clamping effect due to the elasticity of the Outer jacket can be reached in the area of the fold or sealing fold. This should have been a particularly secure arrangement of the outer jacket on the can body.
  • the outer jacket could ultimately extend from the sealing fold to the spraying device extend to the fold or sealing fold in the upper area of the box body.
  • a spray can with a can body
  • a spray device for the can body is assigned for the spray material.
  • This spray can also has a lid to protect the spray device, the cover being a color recognition element assigned to display the color of the spray material.
  • the color recognition element is preferably reversibly assigned to the lid or in the lid preferably arranged reversibly.
  • the lid or arrangement of the color recognition element in the lid has at least one recess for the color recognition element. This could cause the color recognition element to snap into the recess be made possible.
  • the cover could have at least one support web for resting on the Have can body.
  • a support web limits the positioning process of the lid on the can body up to the stop of the can body on the Support web.
  • the recess or the recess could be in the support web or be formed in the support webs. Such a recess could be in be realized in a simple manner by an interruption of the support web.
  • the recess could be a complete passage in the lid. hereby material could be saved in the manufacture of the cover. It could the size of the passage is matched to the size of the color recognition element be that the color recognition element the passage in with the lid assembled state essentially completely closed. The color recognition element could be quasi complementary to the lid, to form a complete cover only when assembled.
  • the lid could be elastic.
  • spray can also includes all known spray cans or aerosol cans includes.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic side view of the embodiment of an inventive Spray can.
  • the spray can has a can body 1 for receiving of the spray material, the can body 1 being a spray device 2 for the spray material is assigned. Furthermore, the spray can has a lid 3 Protection of the spray device 2. With a view to simplified production Reduced costs, the spray can is designed such that the can body 1 or the cover 3, a color recognition element 4 for displaying the color of the spray material assigned.
  • the color detection element 4 is at least in its outer area with the Paint sprayed, so that ultimately the same on the color recognition element 4 Sprayed material or the same paint is in the can body 1.
  • the lid 3 is designed to be transparent, so that the color recognition element 4 is also closed Cover 3 is visible from the outside.
  • the color recognition element 4 is reversibly assigned to the can body 1.
  • the Color detection element 4 is ultimately designed as a closed ring, wherein the color recognition element 4 more precisely as a ring-like outer jacket 5 one hollow spherical layer with an upper smaller and a lower larger one Passage 6 and 7 is formed. In other words, the color recognition element 4 bowl-shaped.
  • the outer jacket 5 is made of plastic, so that a simple Arranging the outer jacket 5 on the can body 1 is made possible.
  • the inner one Edge 8 of the upper passage 6 is beveled inwards to widen.
  • the outer jacket 5 is in the area of the outer edge 9 of the lower passage 7 tapered. This has the advantage that the outer jacket 5 easier to slide along a sealing fold 10 and a sealing fold 11 of the can body can, if the outer jacket 5 is placed on the can body 1.
  • the sealing fold 10 forms the transition from the upper part of the can body 1 to Spraying device 2.
  • the sealing fold 11 forms the transition from the cylindrical one Sheath of the can body 1 to the often conical upper part of the can body 1.
  • the inner diameter of the upper passage 6 is slightly smaller than that Outer diameter of the ring-like sealing fold 10. That means that the outer jacket 5 after its arrangement on the can body 1, virtually below the sealing fold 10 is engaged in a narrowed area below the sealing fold 10.
  • the outer jacket 5 is quasi with the outer edge 9 of the lower passage 7 positively on the inner periphery of the sealing fold 11 of the can body.
  • the outer diameter of the outer casing 5 could be in the area of the lower one Passage 7 may be formed slightly larger than the inside diameter of the Sealing fold 11. This would be a kind of nestling of the outer jacket 5 on the inner Scope of the sealing fold 11 realized.
  • the outer jacket 5 extends essentially from the upper sealing fold 10 the lower sealing fold 11.
  • the cover 3 has recesses 12 for a color recognition element 4. in this respect a color recognition element 4 could also be assigned to the cover 3.
  • the recesses 12 are formed in support webs 13 of the cover 3, which serve to rest on the can body 1.
  • the lid 3 is also elastic and made of plastic.
  • FIG 2 to 4 show the color detection element designed as an outer jacket 5 4 in a schematic side view, in a schematic top view and in FIG a perspective view, each enlarged.
  • the top passage 6 and the lower passage 7 can be seen particularly well.
