Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container for flat objects in a standing position according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • EP 0 109 325, FR 2 621 297 describe postal containers required for this purpose. These are made of plastic (PP) and have various stiffeners to achieve a required dimensional stability. These containers are designed so that they are at the same mutual alignment and one another are aligned with each other by 180 ° about the vertical axis twisted alignment stacked.
  • a corresponding container for flat objects, such as letters, in a standing position has also been described in DE 94 17 521 U1.
  • a container with a designed as a roller shutter end wall, which is displaceable down into a space in the ground (DE 92 11 696 U1).
  • This roller shutter solution is relatively heavy and requires a lot of space.
  • the invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a container for flat objects in a standing position, with the least one end face wall which is displaceable down into a space in the ground, which is carried out over the prior art, light and compact.
  • the material web consists of a flexible thin material web, which is stretched at its ends extending perpendicular to the longitudinal walls between two rods.
  • the lower rod is guided in the space in the ground and movable and the upper rod is displaceable between the bottom and upper end along the frontal boundary of the longitudinal walls.
  • the rods are at their lateral ends on each container longitudinal side together in a pivotally mounted on the longitudinal wall holding mechanism, the material web holding out.
  • the holding mechanism consists of rotatable levers, at whose ends directed to the container end of the upper rod is fixed. They are rotatably mounted approximately in the middle of their longitudinal direction on the lateral longitudinal walls, wherein the two axes of rotation are aligned and perpendicular to the longitudinal walls.
  • the tension elements are elastic and under a bias. As a result, occurring tolerances can be compensated, so that the webs of material can be kept constantly taut.
  • the lateral longitudinal walls advantageously have stops.
  • the lateral longitudinal walls have outside recesses in which the lever sunk rotatably and which can be closed by external covers. This avoids that the holding mechanism is obstructed during its movement.
  • the material web / s has / have a handle recess on the upper rod. This allows the upper bar to be used as a carry handle.
  • a plurality of thin, flexible material webs are fastened at a distance from one another on the two rods.
  • the bottom of the front side has between the webs lugs that dive into the slots between the webs and thus prevent entry of objects between the web and the bottom when opening the container.
  • the container has two lateral longitudinal walls 10 and two end walls.
  • the front walls can be opened and closed independently. The opening is done by simply pressing down the front wall and closing by simply pulling up the front wall.
  • An end wall consists of three wide, parallel, flexible thin material webs 1, which are spanned at their ends extending perpendicular to the longitudinal walls 10 between two rods 2.3.
  • the upper bar 2 is designed as a handle bar. In the middle of the handle bar, the middle material web has a corresponding handle recess (12).
  • the lower bar 3 is located in a space of the bottom.
  • the handle bar is on the side Ends are attached to two parallel levers 4, which are rotatably mounted on coaxial axes 5, perpendicular to the lateral longitudinal walls 10.
  • the levers 4 are recessed in recesses (11) guided whose boundaries form stop surfaces 7 for the lever 4, wherein the position of the stop surfaces 7 is selected so that the handle bar in the upper position just below the upper edge of the lateral longitudinal walls 10 and is in the lower position below the bearing surface of the soil.
  • the stop surfaces 7, the diameter of the handle bar and the thickness of the bottom are designed so that the handle bar is located in the area below the inner surface of the container bottom and above the outer surface of the container bottom, when the front of the container is open.
  • the longitudinal walls 10 have arcuate, extending beyond the floor extensions that prevent slipping through the gap between the longitudinal wall 10 and web 1 objects.
  • an elastic tension element 6 is fixed between the other end of the lever 4 and the lower rod 3 in the ground. It is deflected in each case at two rounded edges in the longitudinal wall 10 and is under a slight bias, whereby the end wall is clamped.
  • the levers 4 form with the between the handle bar / upper bar 2 and the lower bar 3 spanned material webs 1 and the tension elements 6 is a "closed unit" with an approximately constant arc length, which when opening and closing the container only is subject to slight fluctuations, which are compensated by the elastic tension elements 6.
  • the material webs 1, through which the end face of the container is closed, are when opening the container on the lower rod 3 by the tension elements 6 in the intermediate space pulled into the ground.
  • the webs of material 1 are pulled out of the gap in the ground and back up by the handle bar. So that when opening the container no flat objects are drawn into the gap between the webs 1 and the bottom, there are 1 spaces between the parallel webs of material.
  • the floor is extended in these areas by protruding lugs 8, which dive into the distances between the webs 1 and thus prevent entry of objects between web 1 and container bottom when opening the container.
  • the friction between the moving elements and the container increases, whereby the force for opening and closing and the own locking force of the entire locking mechanism is increased in the open and closed positions and in possible intermediate positions. Is sufficient own locking force of the locking mechanism by friction not because z. B. act by a tilting stack of flat objects forces on the handlebar, it is advantageous to provide an additional lock. This can, for. B. in the form of spring-loaded Kugelschnappern that engage in the closed position on one or both levers 2,3, are executed.
