Definitions

  • the invention relates to a storage container having the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • Storage containers are generally referred to as receptacles, in particular plastic bottles, for active fluids such as detergents and disinfectants. It is known to use storage containers with a usually multi-part receptacle and a common cap for the multi-part receptacle, if you want to apply several active fluids simultaneously to be stored separately or must be.
  • the claimed storage container solves the above-mentioned problem with the features of claim 1. Preferred embodiments and further developments are the subject of the dependent claims.
  • an optimized sealing of the openings is realized by the closure cap in that the seal is ensured by blunt, sealing installation of a separate closure region at the edge of the respective opening.
  • Stump coming to the plant means that the closure region of the cap is applied only in the axial direction relative to the opening to the edge. This is done under a certain axial pressure force, so that a secure positive seal is achieved because the cap occupies a precisely defined closure position in the closed state of the Vorratsgebindes.
  • a particularly expedient embodiment of the storage container according to the invention results when both the closure cap and the receptacle made of plastic and at the openings for the purpose of sealing two different plastics, namely plastics with different Shore hardness, are brought to bear against each other.
  • Fig. 1 shows in a representation that is taken from the referenced earlier, but not previously published patent application, a storage container with a closed by a cap 1 receptacle 2.
  • This is executed in the illustrated embodiment as a two-chamber container, thus has two interconnected sub-containers 2a, 2b , These can each receive a drug fluid, so that stored with such a storage container 2 not storage-stable drug fluids and can be applied together.
  • the teaching of the invention is not limited to storage containers with a receptacle 2 consisting of a plurality of sub-containers 2a, 2b, but is generally concerned with a storage container with a receptacle. 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 may be appropriate to provide multiple outlets. It is further provided here that a common for both sub-containers 2a, 2b header 2c 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 schematically indicated here upper end of the receptacle 2 and the head piece 2c is attached.
  • the receptacle 2 has a continuous receiving volume for a drug fluid.
  • a receptacle 2 with two sub-containers 2a, 2b as in Fig. 1 provided, the two chambers of the receptacle 2 must be separated from each other.
  • a spout 3 via which the drug contained in the receptacle 2 can be supplied to the respective outlet.
  • the closure cap 1 is used for the simultaneous closing of at least two each of an edge 4, here on the spout 3, formed openings 5 on the receptacle 2.
  • An opening 5 may be round, but also oval, polygonal, in particular triangular or quadrangular, and slot-shaped or star-shaped.
  • This compound can, as in the prior art in different variants to determine ( EP 0 570 276 B1 . EP 0 839 735 B1 . WO 03/059768 A1 . EP 0 743 259 B1 ) frictionally or positively, for example, a combination of frictional engagement by a press fit and positive engagement by a catch.
  • closures close openings formed by a rim, for example with a cone seal. It has been found that this type of closure of corresponding openings is problematic in the simultaneous closure of multiple openings.
  • the teaching of the invention therefore proposes that on the cap 1 with respect to each opening 5, a closure region 6 is present or formed and in the closed state, as in Fig. 2 shown, the respective closure portion 6 at the edge 4 of the opening 5 butt, sealingly comes to rest.
  • a pressure seal plant is less sensitive to tolerances than typical cone seals, as they are commonly used for caps of the type in question.
  • a secure sealing of the openings 5 through the closure regions 6 of the closure 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 rest under a slight axial pressure force at the edges 4. This results already by the inherent elasticity of the cap 1, at least if this is made of thermoplastic material.
  • the closure cap 1 In a frictional connection of the closure cap 1 with the receptacle 2, the realization of a reproducible detectable pressing requires precise handling by a user. Therefore, it is recommended according to a preferred teaching, the closure cap 1 positively, for example, to connect via a latching connection with the receptacle 2.
  • the realization of a screw for example as a Quickverschraubung (screwing over only a small part of a full circle) is possible if the closure portions 6 of the cap 1 designed to match.
  • both openings 5 of the receptacle 2 by means of the closure portions 6 are forcibly and effectively sealingly closed.
  • the achievement of the closure position is signaled or ensured in the illustrated and preferred embodiment by coming to rest adjacent investment edge 7.
  • the edges 4 of the openings 5 for example, with a spherical contour also expedient to define the closure areas 6 of the caps 1 only geometrically, so not physically particularly form. This is not shown in the drawings.
  • the inner surface of the closure cap 1 could be basically smooth.
  • the closure regions 6 of the closure cap 1 would be the regions which rest on the edges 4 of the openings 5 when the closure cap 1 is in the closed position and lead to the desired sealing effect.
  • the illustrated and in so far preferred embodiment shows another design, namely such that the closure portions 6 of the closure cap 1 are each formed as a lenticular bulge on the material of the closure cap 1.
  • the closure portions 6 of the closure cap 1 are each formed as a lenticular bulge on the material of the closure cap 1.
  • the edge 4 and / or the closure region 6 consists of a thermoplastic material.
  • the closure cap 1 and the receptacle 2 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 cap 1.
  • the illustrated and preferred embodiment shows that another plastic material can be used. It is in the illustrated embodiment of Fig. 2 provided that the edge 4 on the one hand and the closure region 6 on the other hand consist of materials of different hardness. While the cap 1 in the embodiment of Fig. 2 For example, consists of a polypropylene, the closure regions 6, in contrast, of an elastomeric plastic, namely a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), which is softer and gives the sealing effect.
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • FIG. 2 illustrated embodiment is characterized in that the closure portion 6 made of a different material, namely a plastic other than the cap 1 in the rest.
  • the closure region 6 on the material of the closure cap 1 preferably in a two-component injection molding process, is formed.
  • joining other joining methods are conceivable, such as 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 elastomeric plastic or another particularly well sealing material and thus form the closure regions 6 in this form only on the inner side of the closure cap 1. This would be particularly consistent with a screw the cap 1 on the receptacle 2 in line. Then, however, it would be expedient to design the edges 4 of the openings 5 correspondingly spherical or to provide them with another curvature.
  • Fig. 3 shows another embodiment of a storage container according to the invention, which is characterized in that the edge 4 of a different material than the receptacle 2 in the rest or a head piece 2c of the receptacle 2 in the rest.
  • the edge 4 on the material of the receptacle 2 or a head piece 2c of the receptacle 2, preferably in a two-component injection molding process is formed.
  • the upper portion of the spouts 3 is formed by each of the edge 4, of a different material than the spouts 3 in the rest.
  • the edge 4 is formed at both openings 5 as a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) in the two-component injection molding process.
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • the curvature of the cap 1 but consists of the material of the cap 1 itself and is formed only on the cap 1, in abutment with the respective edge 4.
  • an edge 4 for the seal expedient material such as an elastomeric plastic, could be a merely planar design of the inside of the cap 1 at correspondingly curved, the sealing serving edges 4 of the openings 5 realize successfully.
