Definitions
- the present invention relates to coupling closures and docking devices containing these coupling closures. Furthermore, the invention relates to a flexible container and a hose containing the coupling closures according to the invention, the use of the docking devices according to the invention for environmentally-friendly filling, decanting and emptying of containers, and a method for environmentally-friendly filling, decanting and emptying of containers. The invention also relates to a method for producing a coupling closure according to the invention.
- Liquid or solid bulk goods are produced as intermediate or end products in a variety of processes and, unless they are supplied to their destination or final destination via piping systems, are to be transported and placed on the market in the form of containers of a certain size. Since some products have a very toxic effect on the human organism even in small quantities or are very sensitive to air or moisture, very high demands are made on the environmental tightness when decanting such products, for example for further processing into intermediate or end products. In addition to avoiding contamination of the environment, especially in the processing industry, high air requirements are also regularly placed on the purity of the starting or intermediate products used, which is why contamination from outside from every point of the process sequence and not only in the manufacture and insulation of the starting products is to be avoided.
- Docking devices of a simpler design can also be formed according to DE 196 24 189 AI from a first docking element, which is designed in the form of a funnel, and a second docking element, which is connected to the funnel-shaped docking element in a form-fitting manner, in particular by forming a spherical contact surface. To ensure gas tightness, the contact surface must have a guinma-elastic surface.

- the joint 28 can represent, for example, a hinge, a sequence of several hinges or a film hinge.
- the joint 28 is expediently located in the region of the transition from the top 14 to the outside 22 of the first strip 2.
- a sixth closure element 32 is incorporated in the closure cover 30, which is designed in shape, size and position in such a way that when the closure cover 30 is placed over the tops 14 and 16 of the first and second strips 2 and 4, a locking interaction with the fourth closure element 20 takes place on the top 16 of the second strip 4.
