Description

Behälter aus Kunststoff mit mindestens einem Saugnapf Plastic container with at least one suction cup
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Behälter aus Kunststoff mit mindestens einem Saugnapf zur Befestigung des Behälters an einer Wandfläche .The invention relates to a container made of plastic with at least one suction cup for fastening the container to a wall surface.
Es gibt Behälter verschiedenster Art, wie Flaschen oder Tuben, bspw. zur Aufnahme von Spülmittel, Reinigungsmittel, Duschgel, Shampoo oder dergleichen, die an den unterschiedlichsten Stellen zum Gebrauch bereit stehen, wie beispielsweise im Haushalt, in der Küche und im Bad oder auf Reisen im Hotel oder auch im Wohnwagen.There are containers of various kinds, such as bottles or tubes, for example, for receiving detergent, detergent, shower gel, shampoo or the like, which are available in various places for use, such as in the home, in the kitchen and in the bathroom or while traveling in the hotel or in the caravan.
Es ist der Nachteil derartiger bekannter Behälter, dass sie bei einer verhältnismäßig großen Höhe nur über eine kleine Standfläche verfügen und somit leicht umfallen können. Dies geschieht vor allem dann, wenn eine Vielzahl von Behältern auf engem Raum zusammensteht. Ein derartiger Zustand ist beispielsweise im Badezimmer gegeben, in dem Seifen- und Kosmetikflaschen auf einem Spiegelbord stehen oder in beengten Ablagen in einer Duschkabine angeordnet sind.It is the disadvantage of such known container, that they have only a small footprint at a relatively high altitude and thus can easily fall over. This happens especially when a large number of containers in a small space together. Such a condition is given, for example, in the bathroom, in which soap and cosmetics bottles are on a shelf or in cramped shelves are arranged in a shower cubicle.
Es sind bereits diverse Vorschläge bekannt geworden, Kunststoffflaschen in einer Behälterwand mit einer hinterschnittenen Haltevertiefung für den entsprechend hinterschnittenen Haltevorsprung am Außenscheitel eines Saugnapfes zu versehen, mit dem der Behälter an einer Wandfläche saugend befestigt werden kann (z.B. DE 201 07 912 Ul, DE 1 835 736 Ul) . Bei einem anderen bekanntenThere are already various proposals known to provide plastic bottles in a container wall with an undercut retaining recess for the corresponding undercut retaining projection on the outer apex of a suction cup, with which the container can be attached sucking on a wall surface (eg DE 201 07 912 Ul, DE 1 835 736 Ul). In another known
Kunststoffbehälter mit integriertem Saugnapf (DE 90 01 543 Ul) ist in der Behälterwand eine hohlsphärische Vertiefung für den Saugnapf vorgesehen, von deren Boden ein Stift mit einem Kugelkopf absteht, auf den sich ein Gummisaugnapf aufstecken .läßt, der hierzu eine hohlkugelige Vertiefung in seinem Fußvorsprung aufweist. Die Vertiefung soll der Versenkung des Saugnapfes aus optischen und verpackungstechnischen Gründen dienen.Plastic container with integrated suction cup (DE 90 01 543 Ul) is provided in the container wall, a hollow spherical recess for the suction cup, from the bottom of a pin protrudes with a spherical head, on which a rubber suction cup attach, which for this purpose has a hollow spherical depression in its foot projection. The depression is to serve the sinking of the suction cup for optical and packaging reasons.
Durch die Erfindung wird erreicht, einen mit integriertem Saugnapf versehenen Kunststo fbehälter zu schaffen, der gleicherweise gebrauchsfreundlich und verpackungsfreundlich gestaltet ist.The invention is achieved to provide a container provided with an integrated suction cup Kunststo fbehälter, which is also designed to be user-friendly and packaging friendly.
Gemäß der Erfindung ist ein Behälter aus Kunststoffmaterial mit einer Behälterwand geschaffen, an der mindestens ein Saugnapf zur Befestigung des Behälters an einer Wandfläche angebracht ist. Der in seiner Gebrauchslage über die Außenkontur der Behälterwand hinausragende Saugnapf weist eine konkave Innenseite auf, die von Innenflächen einer Bodenwand und eines von diesem abstehenden Saugmantels gebildet wird, der sich von der Innenfläche der Bodenwand aus in seinem Durchmesser erweitert und elastisch flachdrückbar ist. An der der Innenfläche abgewandten Seite der Bodenwand ist ein Haltevorsprung ausgebildet, der in einer komplementären, sacklochartigen Haltevertiefung befestigt ist, die in der Behälterwand ausgebildet ist . In der Behälterwand ist rings der Haltevertiefung eine flache Aufnahmemulde ausgebildet und der Saugmantel ist so gestaltet, dass er bis in eine Verpackungsposition flachdrückbar ist, in welcher der Saugmantel in der flachen Aufnahmemulde ausgebreitet ist . Die Aufnahmemulde entspricht in ihrer Umfangsgröße wenigstens der Umfangsgröße des ausgebreiteten Saugmantels und in ihrer Tiefe der Dicke des Saugmantels, und die Haltevertiefung ist von der Außenkontur der Behälterwand zurückgesetzt, so daß die Innenflächen der Bodenwand und des ausgebreiteten Saugmantels sich im wesentlichen bündig mit der Außenkontur der Behälterwand erstrecken. Durch die Erfindung kann daher der Saugmantel elastisch soweit in die flache Aufnahmemulde in der Behälterwand hinein ausgebreitet werden, dass er mit seinem Umfangsrand in dem Umfangsbereich der Aufnahmemulde zu liegen kommt . Da außerdem die Haltevertiefung, in welcher der Haltevorsprung am Außenscheitel des Saugnapfes eingreift, im Abstand von der Außenkontur der Behälterwand am Boden der Aufnahmemulde ausgebildet ist, greift auch die Bodenwand des Saugnapfes in die Aufnahmemulde ein, so dass die Innenfläche des Saugnapfes bei in die Aufnahmevertiefung ausgebreitetem Saugmantel ein im wesentlichen bündige Fortsetzung der Außenkontur der Behälterwand im Bereich der Aufnahmemulde bildet und nicht über die Außenkontur vorsteht .According to the invention, there is provided a plastic material container having a container wall to which at least one sucker for attaching the container to a wall surface is attached. The in its position of use on the outer contour of the container wall projecting suction cup has a concave inner side, which is formed by inner surfaces of a bottom wall and a projecting from this Saugmantels which extends from the inner surface of the bottom wall in its diameter and is elastically flattening. On the side facing away from the inner surface of the bottom wall, a holding projection is formed, which is fixed in a complementary, blind hole-like holding recess which is formed in the container wall. In the container wall, a flat receiving trough is formed around the holding recess and the suction jacket is designed so that it can be flattened into a packaging position in which the suction sheath is spread in the flat receiving trough. The receiving trough corresponds in its peripheral size at least the circumferential size of the spread suction jacket and in depth of the thickness of the suction jacket, and the retaining recess is set back from the outer contour of the container wall, so that the inner surfaces of the bottom wall and the spread suction jacket is substantially flush with the outer contour of the Container wall extend. By means of the invention, therefore, the suction jacket can be spread elastically into the shallow receiving recess in the container wall so far that it comes to lie with its peripheral edge in the peripheral region of the receiving recess. In addition, since the holding recess, in which engages the retaining projection on the outer apex of the suction cup, at a distance from the outer contour of the container wall at the bottom of the receiving trough, engages the bottom wall of the suction cup in the receiving trough, so that the inner surface of the suction cup in the receiving recess Spreading Saugmantel forms a substantially flush continuation of the outer contour of the container wall in the region of the receiving trough and does not project beyond the outer contour.
Im ausgebreiteten Zustand des Saugmantels werden daher die Kontur und das Design des zumeist flaschenförmigen KunstStoffbehälters nicht unterbrochen. Außerdem können mehrere Behälter versandfertig aneinandergestapelt werden, ohne dass der Saugnapf dabei stört oder dieIn the expanded state of the suction jacket therefore the contour and the design of the mostly bottle-shaped KunstStoffbehälters are not interrupted. In addition, several containers can be stacked ready to ship without the suction cup interfering or the
Verpackungseinheit vergrößert. Gleichwohl steht der Saugnapf beim Verbraucher unmittelbar gebrauchsfertig zur Verfügung, ohne dass der Saugnapf gesondert geliefert und erst nachträglich in die Haltevertiefung eingeknöpft werden muß.Packaging unit enlarged. Nevertheless, the suction cup is the consumer immediately ready for use available without the suction cup supplied separately and must be buttoned into the retaining recess later.
Der erfindungsgemäße Behälter, beispielsweise eine Flasche oder eine Tube oder dergleichen, kann an jede glatte Fläche, beispielsweise den Wandfliesen einer Duschkabine, in beliebiger Position griffbereit angebracht werden. Dies hat wie bei den bekannten Behältern mit integriertem Saugnapf den Vorteil, dass der Behälter weder umfallen noch zu Boden fallen kann, sondern fest an seiner zugriffsgünstigen Stelle gehalten ist. Erfindungsgemäße Behälter werden vorzugsweise im Kunststoffspritzverfahren oder im Blasverfahren hergestellt .The container according to the invention, for example a bottle or a tube or the like, can be attached to any smooth surface, for example the wall tiles of a shower cubicle, in any desired position. This has the advantage, as in the known containers with integrated suction cup, that the container can neither fall over nor fall to the floor, but is firmly held at its accessible position. Containers according to the invention are preferably manufactured by plastic injection molding or by blow molding.
Wenn ein erfindungsgemäßer Behälter mit mehreren Saugnäpfen ausgestattet ist, können die Saugnäpfe in einer gemeinsamen Aufnahmemulde angeordnet sein. Vorgezogen wird jedoch, für jeden der Saugnäpfe eine gesonderte erfindungsgemäße Aufnahmemulde rings der jeweiligen Haltevertiefung für den Haltevorsprung des Saugnapfes vorzusehen.If a container according to the invention is equipped with a plurality of suction cups, the suction cups can be arranged in a common receiving trough. However, it is preferred to provide a separate receiving recess according to the invention for each of the suction cups around the respective holding recess for the holding projection of the suction cup.
Wenngleich die Innenfläche des Saugmantels entlang dessen Mantellinien leicht konkav gekrümmt sein kann, wird es bevorzugt, die Innenfläche und im übrigen auch die Außenfläche des Saugmantels kegelförmig mit geraden Mantellinien verlaufen zu lassen. Die kreisförmigeAlthough the inner surface of the suction jacket may be slightly concave curved along its generatrices, it is preferred that the inner surface and otherwise the outer surface of the suction jacket to extend conically with straight generatrices. The circular
Innenfläche der Bodenwand des Saugnapfes ist vorzugsweise eben.Inner surface of the bottom wall of the suction cup is preferably flat.
Wenngleich ferner die Wanddicke des Saugmantels über dessen gesamte Ausdehnung hin konstant sein kann, nimmt dieFurthermore, although the wall thickness of the suction jacket can be constant over its entire extent, the
Wanddicke vorzugsweise vom an die Bodenwand des Saugnapfes angrenzenden Fuß des Saugnapfes bis zu dessen Umfangsrand gleichmäßig ab.Wall thickness preferably from evenly adjacent to the bottom wall of the suction cup foot of the suction cup to its peripheral edge.
Ferner wird aus Fertigungsgründen die Haltevertiefung in der Behälterwand bevorzugt hinterschneidungsfrei gestaltet, so dass die gesamte Ausnehmung in der Behälterwand aus Aufnahmemulde und Haltevertiefung hinterschneidungsfrei geformt werden kann. Der Saugnapf kann bei einer solchen hinterscheidungsfreien Gestaltung der Haltevertiefung ebenfalls hinterschneidungsfrei gestaltet und in die Haltevertiefung eingeklebt werden. Hierbei kann die Haltevertiefung sehr flach gestaltet sein, so dass sie im wesentlichen für die Anbringung des Saugnapfes zentrierend zu wirken und ein Abscheren der Klebverbindung zu verhindern braucht .Furthermore, the retaining recess in the container wall is preferably designed without undercuts for manufacturing reasons, so that the entire recess can be formed without undercuts in the container wall of receiving trough and holding recess. The suction cup can also be designed without undercuts and glued into the retaining recess in such a non-distinctive design of the retaining recess. Here, the holding recess may be designed very flat, so that they are centering for the attachment of the suction cup substantially act and prevent a shearing of the adhesive bond needs.
Der erfindungsgemäße, aus Weichgummi oder Weichkunststoff hergestellte Saugnapf wird in seiner ausgebreiteten Verpackungsposition vorzugsweise von einer Abdeckfolie gehalten. Die Abdeckfolie kann hierbei den gesamten Behälter oder auch mehrere zusammengestapelte erfindungsgemäße Behälter umhüllen. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, die Abdeckfolie als Klebeetikett zu gestalten, das auf den ausgebreiteten Saugnapf und den die Aufnahmemulde umgebenden Bereich der Behälterwand aufgeklebt ist und beispielsweise einen Balkenkode oder sonstige Beschriftung aufweisen kann.The suction cup according to the invention, made of soft rubber or soft plastic is preferably held in its expanded packaging position by a cover sheet. The cover film can in this case envelop the entire container or even several containers stacked together according to the invention. However, it is also possible to make the cover as an adhesive label, which is glued to the spread suction cup and the receiving trough surrounding area of the container wall and may have, for example, a bar code or other labeling.
Ein gemäß der Erfindung gestalteter Behälter eignet sich auch hervorragend für den Gebrauch auf Reisen, weil auch hierzu der Saugnapf mit einer üblichen Klebefolie oder einem üblichen Klebeband in seinem ausgebreiteten Zustand gehalten werden kann. Auf diese Weise kann der Behälter, beispielsweise eine Duschgelflasche, bequem auf Reisen mitgenommen werden und steht dann am Reiseort nach Ablösen der Klebefolie wieder für das Anheften einer glatten Wandfläche gebrauchsfertig zur Verfügung, ohne dass hierzu gesonderte Saugnäpfe mitgeführt zu werden brauchen.A container designed according to the invention is also excellently suited for travel use, because for this purpose too, the suction cup can be held in its spread state with a conventional adhesive film or a conventional adhesive tape. In this way, the container, such as a shower gel bottle, can be easily taken on trips and is ready to use at the travel location after detachment of the adhesive film for pinning a smooth wall surface available without the need for separate suction cups need to be carried.

Derartige Behälter haben erfahrungsgemäß einen kleinflächigen Boden 11 als Standfläche und verfügen deshalb über keine stabile Standfestigkeit, sondern neigen leicht zum Umfallen und Herunterfallen.Such containers have experience, a small-scale bottom 11 as a base and therefore have no stable stability, but are prone to falling over and falling down.
Diese Nachteile werden durch den erfindungsgemäßen Behälter 10 behoben. Zu diesem Zweck sind in einer Wand des Behälters 10, beim Ausführungsbeispiel in der Frontwand 12, zwei übereinander angeordnete Halteelemente in Form von Saugnäpfen 13 vorgesehen. Die Anzahl der Saugnäpfe 13 an der Behälterwand 12 kann variieren und wird in Abhängigkeit von der Größe und dem Gewicht des Behälters gewählt. Im einfachsten Fall ist lediglich ein Saugnapf in die Behälterwand integriert.These disadvantages are eliminated by the container 10 according to the invention. For this purpose, two superimposed holding elements in the form of suction cups 13 are provided in a wall of the container 10, in the embodiment in the front wall 12. The number of suction cups 13 on the container wall 12 can vary and is chosen depending on the size and weight of the container. In the simplest case, only a suction cup is integrated into the container wall.
Der in der Behälterwand 12 untergebrachte und gehaltene Saugnapf ist aus einem weichelastischen Material hergestellt. In die Behälterwand 12 ist eine Ausnehmung 17 eingeformt, die eine Haltevertiefung 15 und eine konzentrisch zu derselben und rings derselben liegende Auf ahmemulde 18 aufweist. In der Haltevertiefung 15 ist ein Haltevorsprung 16 des Saugnapfes 14 gehalten, beispielsweise durch eine Klebung oder in dem die Seitenwände der Vertiefung 15 eineThe suction cup accommodated and held in the container wall 12 is made of a soft elastic material. In the container wall 12, a recess 17 is formed, which has a holding recess 15 and a concentric to the same and lying around the same onemeham 18. In the holding recess 15, a retaining projection 16 of the suction cup 14 is held, for example by gluing or in which the side walls of the recess 15 a
Hinterschneidung aufweisen, die der Haltevorsprung 16 hintergreift. In der Aufnahmemulde 18 ist im Nichtbefestigungszustand des Behälters 10 der Saugmantel 19 des Saugnapfes 14 untergebracht . Damit der Saugmantel 19 im Nichtbefestigungszustand des Behälters nicht über die Behälterwand 12 hinausragt,, sondern bündig mit der Außenfläche der Behälterwand 12 abschließt, ist eine abziehbare Abdeckfolie 20 über den Bereich derHaving undercut, which engages behind the retaining projection 16. In the receiving trough 18 of the suction cup 19 of the suction cup 14 is housed in the non-attachment state of the container 10. So that the suction jacket 19 does not protrude beyond the container wall 12 in the non-attachment state of the container, but terminates flush with the outer surface of the container wall 12, a removable cover film 20 is over the area of
Aufnahmemulde 18 und den Saugnapf 13 auf die Außenfläche der Behälterwand 12 aufgeklebt .Receiving trough 18 and the suction cup 13 adhered to the outer surface of the container wall 12.
Diese Maßnahme erleichtert das Verpacken und den Transport sowie den Verkauf des Behälters 10.This measure facilitates the packaging and transport as well as the sale of the container 10.
Nach dem Abziehen der Abdeckfolie 20 von der Behälterwand 12, wobei zum leichteren Abziehen der Abdeckfolie 20 an derselben eine nicht an der Behälterwand 12 angeklebte Grifflasche 21 vorgesehen ist, richten sich die Saugmäntel 19 auf und überragen nun die Behälterwand 12. In dieser Lage kann der Behälter 20 durch Andrücken an eine Wandfläche in sicherer Lage befestigt werden. Ein Umfallen oder Herunterfallen von seinem Standplatz ist für den Behälter nun nicht mehr möglich.After peeling off the covering film 20 from the container wall 12, wherein for easier removal of the cover 20 is provided on the same not adhered to the container wall 12 grip tab 21, the suction jackets 19 and now dominate the container wall 12. In this position, the Container 20 are secured by pressing against a wall surface in a secure position. Falling over or falling down from his stand is no longer possible for the container.
Andererseits kann der Behälter 10 leicht von der Wandfläche abgenommen werden, um bspw. auf eine Reise mitgenommen zu werden. Zu diesem Zweck können die Saugnäpfe 13 durch erneutes Aufkleben der Abdeckfolie 20 oder eines anderen Klebestreifens wieder in ihre Ausnehmung 17 zurückgedrückt und gehalten werden. Zur Aufbewahrung und Bereithaltung kann die Abdeckfolie während des Befestigungszustandes auf der Rückwand 22 des Behälters 10 aufgeklebt werden, wie dies in Figur 1 gestrichelt dargestellt ist.On the other hand, the container 10 can be easily removed from the wall surface, for example, to be taken on a journey. For this purpose, the suction cups 13 can be pushed back into its recess 17 and held by re-adhering the cover sheet 20 or another adhesive strip. For storage and maintenance, the cover film can be adhered to the back wall 22 of the container 10 during the fastening state, as shown in dashed lines in FIG.
Wie insbesondere aus den Ausführungsformen entsprechend der Einheiten A und B aus den Figuren 1 und 2 gezeigt, weist der Saugnapf einen in der Gebrauchslage über die Kontur 34 der hälterwand 12 hinausstehenden Saugmantel 19, dessen fnungswinkel 120 bis 150 Winkelgrad beträgt, und eine denwand 32 auf, an deren Rückseite ein Haltevorsprung 16 sgebildet ist . In der bevorzugten Gestaltung hat der ugmantel 19 eine hohlkegelförmige Innenseite 30 und eine gelförmige Außenseite 31 und die kreisförmige Innenseite 33 der Bodenwand 32 ist eben ausgebildet. Die Wanddicke des Saugmantels 19 nimmt vom Umfang der Innenseite 33 der Bodenwand aus bis zum freien Umfangsrand 14 des Saugmantels stetig ab.As shown in particular from the embodiments corresponding to the units A and B of Figures 1 and 2, the suction cup has a in the position of use on the contour 34 of container wall 12 protruding suction jacket 19, the angle of rotation is 120 to 150 degrees, and a denwand 32, at the back of a holding projection 16 is formed. In the preferred embodiment, the ugmantel 19 has a hollow cone-shaped inner side 30 and a gel-shaped outer side 31 and the circular inner side 33 of the bottom wall 32 is flat. The wall thickness of the suction jacket 19 decreases continuously from the circumference of the inner side 33 of the bottom wall to the free peripheral edge 14 of the suction jacket.
Die Aufnahmemulde 18 rings der Haltevertiefung 15 in der Behälterwand 12 ist in Anpassung an die Dicke des Saugmantels 19 flach ausgebildet und hat eine Größe, die wenigstens der Größe des Saugmantels 19 entspricht, wenn dieser bis in die Aufnahmemulde hinein flachgedrückt ist, was jeweils aus der Einzelheit A ersichtlich ist. Da die Haltevertiefung 15 etwa um die Dicke der Bodenwand 32 des Saugnapfes gegenüber der Kontur 34 der Behälterwand zurückgesetzt ist, liegt auch die Bodenwand 32 in der Aufnahmemulde 18 versenkt. Wenn dieThe receiving trough 18 of the retaining recess 15 in the container wall 12 is flat in adaptation to the thickness of the suction jacket 19 and has a size which corresponds to at least the size of the suction jacket 19 when this is flattened into the receiving recess, which in each case from Detail A can be seen. Since the holding recess 15 is set back by approximately the thickness of the bottom wall 32 of the suction cup with respect to the contour 34 of the container wall, the bottom wall 32 is sunk in the receiving trough 18. If the
Kontur 34 der Behälterwand 12 entlang einer Ebene verläuft, ist der Saugmantel 19 in der Verpackungsposition soweit in die Aufnahmemulde hinein ausgebreitet, daß die Innenseiten 30, 33 von Saugmantel 19 und Bodenwand 32 ebenfalls in einer gemeinsamen Ebene liegen, die mit der Ebene der Kontur 34 der Behälterwand 12 im wesentlichen übereinstimmt.Contour 34 of the container wall 12 extends along a plane, the suction jacket 19 in the packaging position as far into the receiving trough in that the inner sides 30, 33 of the suction jacket 19 and bottom wall 32 are also in a common plane, with the plane of the contour 34th the container wall 12 substantially coincides.
Die Erfindung kann auch angewendet werden, wenn die Außenfläche der Behälterwand 12 leicht konvex gekrümmt verläuft. In einem solchen Fall kann der Saugmantel 19 soweit ausgebreitet werden, daß er entlang seiner Innenseite in allen Radialschnitten des Saugnapfes mit der jeweiligen Konturlinie der Behälterwand übereinstimmt und daher im Beispiel entsprechend der Außenfläche gekrümmt verläuft. Bei der Ausführungsform aus den Fig. 4 und 5 weisen die Haltevertiefung 15 und der Haltevorsprung 16 jeweils eine Hinterschneidung auf, so daß der Saugnapf an seinem Haltevorsprung formschlüssig in der Haltevertiefung gehalten ist. Bei den Ausführungsformen aus den Fig. 6 bis 10 hingegen ist der Haltevorsprung 16 zylindrisch und die Haltevertiefung 15 ist ohlzylindrisch oder sich zu ihren Außenrand hin leicht konisch erweiternd ausgebildet . Hierbei wird der Haltevorsprung in der Haltevertiefung verklebt .The invention can also be applied when the outer surface of the container wall 12 is slightly convexly curved. In such a case, the suction jacket 19 can be spread so far that it coincides along its inner side in all radial sections of the suction cup with the respective contour line of the container wall and therefore in the example according to the outer surface is curved. In the embodiment of FIGS. 4 and 5, the retaining recess 15 and the retaining projection 16 each have an undercut, so that the suction cup is held on its holding projection in a form-fitting manner in the retaining recess. In the embodiments of FIGS. 6 to 10, however, the holding projection 16 is cylindrical and the holding recess 15 is ohlzylindrisch or slightly conically widening towards its outer edge. In this case, the retaining projection is glued in the retaining recess.
Außerdem sind bei diesen Ausführungsformen der Haltevorsprung und entsprechend die Haltevertiefung relativ flach ausgebildet. Insbesondere steht die Bodenwand 32 des Saugnapfes mit ihrer der Innenseite 33 abgewandten Seite über den an die Bodenwand angrenzenden ringförmigen Fuß 35 des Saugmantels 19 hinaus und bildet mit ihrem hinausstehend Querschnittsabschnitt den Haltevorsprung 16. Die Höhe des Haltevorsprungs 16 und entsprechend die Tiefe der Haltevertiefung 15 können hierbei weniger als die Hälfte der Dicke der Bodenwand betragen, wobei die Höhe des Haltevorsprungs geringfügig größer als die Tiefe der Haltevertiefung sein kann.In addition, in these embodiments, the retaining projection and accordingly the retaining recess are formed relatively flat. In particular, the bottom wall 32 of the suction cup with its side facing away from the inside 33 beyond the bottom wall adjacent to the annular base 35 of the suction jacket 19 and forms with its protruding cross-sectional portion of the retaining projection 16. The height of the retaining projection 16 and corresponding depth of the retaining recess 15 can less than half the thickness of the bottom wall, wherein the height of the retaining projection may be slightly larger than the depth of the retaining recess.
Weiter nimmt bei der Ausführungsform aus den Fig. 6 und 7 die Tiefe der Aufnahmemulde 18 entsprechend der Dickenabnahme des Saugmantels radial nach außen ab, wobei der Umfangsrand 36 der Aufnahmemulde nur um ein kleines Spiel größer als der Umfangsrand des ausgebreiteten Saugmantels 19 ist. Letzteres ist auch bei der Ausführungsform aus den Fig. 8 und 9 derFurther, in the embodiment of Figs. 6 and 7, the depth of the receiving cavity 18 decreases radially outward in accordance with the decrease in thickness of the suction jacket, with the peripheral edge 36 of the receiving cavity being larger than the circumferential edge of the expanded suction jacket 19 only by a small clearance. The latter is also in the embodiment of FIGS. 8 and 9 of
Fall, wobei jedoch die Aufnahmemulde 18 eine im wesentlichen konstante Tiefe hat . Bei der Ausführungsform aus den Fig. 10 und 11 nimmt die Tiefe der Aufnahmemulde 18 radial nach außen ebenfalls entsprechend der Dickenabnahme des Saugmantels 19 ab, so daß sie einen hohlkegeligen Boden hat. Bei dieser Ausführungsform jedoch setzt sich die Aufnahmemulde 18 über den Umfangsrand des ausgebreiteten Saugmantels radial nach außen hinaus fort, bis sie entlang einer überstumpfen Kante in die Außenkontur der Behälterwand 12 einläuft.Case, however, wherein the receiving trough 18 has a substantially constant depth. In the embodiment of Figs. 10 and 11, the depth of the receiving cavity 18 decreases radially outward also according to the decrease in thickness of the suction jacket 19 so that it has a hollow conical bottom. In this embodiment, however, the receiving trough 18 continues beyond the peripheral edge of the spread-out suction jacket radially outwards until it enters the outer contour of the container wall 12 along an obtuse edge.
In den Fig. 12 und 13 sind zwei erfindungsgemäße Saugnäpfe unterschiedlichen Außendurchmessers des Umfangsrandes 14 ihres Saugmantels 19 dargestellt. Ihr flach zylindrischer Haltevorsprung 16 hat jedoch bei den beiden Ausführungsformen den gleichen, relativ großen Durchmesser c. Das Verhältnis a:c des Durchmessers des Haltevorsprungs 16 zu dem desIn FIGS. 12 and 13, two suction cups according to the invention of different outer diameters of the peripheral edge 14 of their suction jacket 19 are shown. However, their flat cylindrical retaining projection 16 has the same, relatively large diameter c in the two embodiments. The ratio a: c of the diameter of the retaining projection 16 to that of
Umfangsrandes 14 des Saugmantels 19 beträgt bei dem kleineren Saugnapf gemäß Fig. 12 zwei bis zweieinhalb, und bei dem größeren Saugnapf gemäß Fig. 13 drei bis vier. Peripheral edge 14 of the suction jacket 19 is in the smaller suction cup of FIG. 12 two to two and a half, and in the larger suction cup of FIG. 13 three to four.
