Definitions
- the invention relates to a storage container with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
- Storage containers in particular plastic bottles, for active substance fluids such as cleaning agents and disinfectants are referred to as storage containers as a generalized description. It is known to use storage containers with a mostly multi-part receptacle and a common closure cap for the multi-part receptacle if one wishes to apply several active substance fluids simultaneously, which should or must be stored separately from one another.
- storage containers with a mostly multi-part receptacle and a common closure cap for the multi-part receptacle if one wishes to apply several active substance fluids simultaneously, which should or must be stored separately from one another.
- the parallel patent application 102 38 431.2 (DE 102 38 431 A1), which does not represent prior published prior art and the disclosure content of which is made in its entirety by reference to the disclosure content of the present patent application.
- this prior art which has not been previously published, there are also extensive references to further, previously published prior art.
- the teaching is based on the problem of the storage container known from the aforementioned previously published prior art to optimize in such a way that the openings can be effectively closed at the same time.
- the claimed supply container solves the problem mentioned above with the features of claim 1. Preferred refinements and developments are the subject of the dependent claims.
- an optimized sealing of the openings by the closure cap is achieved in that the seal is ensured by the blunt, sealing abutment of a separate closure area on the edge of the respective opening. Butt coming into abutment means that the closure area of the closure cap is only applied to the edge in the axial direction with respect to the opening. This takes place under a certain axial pressing force, so that a secure positive seal is achieved because the closure cap assumes a precisely defined closure position in the closed state of the storage container. Due to the solution according to the invention, lateral displacements of the closure area with respect to the edge of the opening are possible within a considerably larger tolerance range than with sealing techniques for individual closure caps known from the prior art.
- a particularly expedient embodiment of the storage container according to the invention is obtained if both the closure cap and the receptacle are made of plastic and two different plastics, namely plastics with different shore hardness, are brought into contact with one another at the openings for the purpose of sealing.
- closure cap is frictionally fitted onto, or, in particular, snapped onto, the receptacle in a specific closure position.
- the storage container according to the invention is particularly preferably designed as a dispenser bottle as is the subject of the older patent application 102 38 431.2. This unpublished patent application is again pointed out here. Their disclosure content has been made in full by reference to the disclosure content of the present patent application.
- Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a storage container according to the invention in a perspective view
- Fig. 2 in section and schematically simplified the area of the closure cap of a storage container from Fig. 1 and
- FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of the invention in a simplified representation corresponding to FIG. 2.
- FIG. 1 shows, in a representation that is taken from the older, but not prepublished, patent application referred to, a storage container with a receiving container 2 closed by a closure cap 1.
- this is designed as a two-chamber container, that is, it has two interconnected ones Partial container 2a, 2b. These can each take up an active substance fluid, so that with such a supply container 2, active substance fluids that are not stable in storage can be stored with one another and applied together.
- the teaching of the invention is not limited to storage containers with a receiving container 2 consisting of a plurality of partial containers 2a, 2b, but is generally concerned with a storage container with a receiving container 2.
- each sub-container has at least one outlet for the active substance fluid contained therein. But even with a single, continuous receptacle 2, it can be useful to provide several outlets. It is also provided here that a head piece 2c common to both partial containers 2a, 2b houses the outlets.
- Fig. 2 shows a preferred embodiment of a storage container according to the invention, in which the closure cap 1 on the upper end of the receptacle 2 or the head piece, which is schematically indicated here 2c is attached.
- the receptacle 2 has a continuous receptacle volume for an active substance fluid. If a receptacle 2 with two sub-containers 2a, 2b is provided here as in FIG. 1, the two chambers of the receptacle 2 must be separated from one another.
- a spout 3 via which the active substance fluid located in the receiving container 2 can be supplied to the respective outlet.
- the closure cap 1 serves for the simultaneous closure of at least two openings 5 on the receptacle 2 each formed by an edge 4, here on the spout 3.
- An opening 5 can be round, but also oval, polygonal, in particular triangular or square, and slit-shaped or star-shaped. It is provided that the closure cap 1 in the closed state with the receptacle 2, as shown in Fig. 2, is permanently, if detachably, connected.
- this connection can be frictional or positive, for example also a combination of frictional engagement by a press fit and positive locking by means of a catch.
- sealing caps close openings formed by an edge, for example with a cone seal. It has been shown that this type of closing of corresponding openings is problematic when several openings are closed at the same time.
- the teaching of the invention therefore proposes that a closure area 6 is present or formed on the closure cap 1 with respect to each opening 5 and that, in the closed state, as shown in FIG. 2, the respective closure area 6 at the edge 4 of the opening 5 is blunt, comes into sealing contact with the system.
- Such a system which is only realized as a pressure seal, is less sensitive to tolerances than typical conical seals, as are normally used frequently for sealing caps of the type in question.
- a secure sealing of the openings 5 by the sealing areas 6 of the sealing cap 1 requires a minimum sealing pressure.
- the closure cap 1 on the receptacle 2 in the closed state of the storage container assumes a precisely defined closure position in which the closure regions 6 come to bear against the edges 4 under a slight axial pressing force.
- the realization of a reproducibly ascertainable pressing force requires exact handling on the part of a user. Therefore, according to preferred teaching, it is recommended to connect the closure cap 1 to the receptacle 2 in a form-fitting manner, for example via a snap-in connection.
- a screw connection for example as a quick screw connection (screw movement over only a small part of a full circle), if the sealing regions 6 of the sealing cap 1 are designed appropriately.
- both openings 5 of the receptacle 2 are forcibly and effectively sealed by means of the closure regions 6.
- reaching or closing position is signaled or ensured by abutment edges 7 coming into contact with one another.
- closure regions 6 of the closure caps 1 are defined only geometrically, that is, not to physically train them. However, this is not shown in the drawings. In such a case, the inner surface of the closure cap 1 could in principle be made smooth.
- the closure regions 6 of the closure cap 1 would be the regions which lie on the edges 4 of the openings 5 when the closure cap 1 is in the closure position and lead to the desired sealing effect.
- the embodiment shown and preferred in so far shows a different design, namely such that the closure areas 6 of the closure cap 1 are each formed as a lenticular curvature on the material of the closure cap 1.
- a particularly effective seal is obtained here by the linear contact between the edge 4 and the lens-shaped closure region 6.
- the edge 4 and / or the closure area 6 consists of a thermoplastic.
- the cap 1 and the receptacle 2 are made of a thermoplastic material.
- the material of the receptacle 2 is preferably a polyolefin, in particular a polypropylene (PP), a polyethylene (PE), a polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or a glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate (PETG).
- a similar material can also be used for the closure cap 1.
- the illustrated and preferred embodiment shows that a further plastic material can be used.
- the edge 4 on the one hand and the closure area 6 on the other hand consist of materials of different hardness. 2, for example, consists of a polypropylene
- the closure areas 6, on the other hand consist of an elastomer plastic, namely a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), which is softer and provides the sealing effect.
- TPE thermoplastic elastomer
- the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 2 is characterized in that the closure region 6 is made of a different material, namely a different plastic than the closure cap 1.
- the closure region 6 is molded onto the material of the closure cap 1, preferably in a two-component injection molding process. Other joining methods are also conceivable for connection, for example gluing, clamping, welding, plugging etc.
- closure cap 1 it is also possible, for example, to coat the inner surface of the closure cap 1 over a large area with an elastomer plastic or another particularly well-sealing material and thus to form the closure regions 6 in this form only on the inside of the closure cap 1. This would in particular be harmonized with a screwing of the closure cap 1 on the receptacle 2. Then, however, it would be advisable to design the edges 4 of the openings 5 in a correspondingly spherical manner or to provide them with a different curvature.
- the edge 4 consists of a different material than the receptacle 2 in the rest or a head piece 2c of the receptacle 2 in the rest. It is provided here that the edge 4 is molded onto the material of the receptacle 2 or of a head piece 2c of the receptacle 2, preferably in a two-component injection molding process.
- the upper section of the grommets 3, by which the edge 4 is formed, is made of a different material than the grommets 3 in the rest.
- the edge 4 is formed on both openings 5 as a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) in a two-component injection molding process.
- TPE thermoplastic elastomer
- the curvature is on the cap 1, but which consists of the material of the cap 1 itself and is formed only on the cap 1, in contact with the respective edge 4.
- an edge 4 for sealing expedient material for example an elastomer plastic, it would be possible to successfully implement only a flat design of the inside of the closure cap 1 with appropriately curved edges 4 of the openings 5 which serve to seal.
- a storage container in the sense of the teaching of the present patent application can in particular be a dispenser bottle as described in the older patent application DE 102 38 431.2 referred to.
