Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Müllbehälter mit den Merkmalen des einleitenden Teils von Anspruch 1. Solche Müllbehälter sind aus der DE 3 224 950 A oder der DE-U-80 01 259 bekannt.The invention relates to a refuse container with the features of the introductory part of claim 1. Such refuse containers are known from DE 3 224 950 A or the DE-U-80 01 259 known.

Müllbehälter ( EP 0 178 491 A , DE 3 224 950 A ), die in der Regel aus Kunststoff gefertigt sind, besitzen im Bereich des Randes ihrer oberen Öffnung, die durch einen Deckel verschlossen werden kann, eine an der Außenseite der Wand des Behälters, die der Schwenkachse des Deckels gegenüberliegt, angeordnete, nach unten offene Nut (Kamm), die zum Behälter hin von der Wand des Behälters, nach oben hin durch einen Steg und nach vorne hin durch einen Schenkel begrenzt wird.Refuse container ( EP 0 178 491 A . DE 3 224 950 A ), which are usually made of plastic, have in the region of the edge of its upper opening, which can be closed by a lid, on the outside of the wall of the container, which is opposite to the pivot axis of the lid, arranged downwardly open groove (Comb), which is limited to the container from the wall of the container, upwards by a web and at the front by a leg.

Um die Nut so zu gestalten, dass sie den beim Benützen des Behälters, insbesondere beim Entleeren desselben, auftretenden Belastungen standhält, sind im Inneren der Nut quer zur Wand, an welcher die Nut vorgesehen ist, von der Wand des Behälters zum Schenkel hin verlaufende Versteifungsrippen vorgesehen. Bekannt ist es auch, etwa in der Mitte der Nut eine Zwischenrippe vorzusehen, die parallel zu der Wand des Behälters, an der außen die Nut vorgesehen ist, ausgerichtet ist.In order to make the groove so that it withstands the loads occurring when using the container, in particular when emptying it, inside the groove, transverse to the wall on which the groove is provided, stiffening ribs extending from the wall of the container towards the leg intended. It is also known to provide an intermediate rib approximately in the middle of the groove, which is aligned parallel to the wall of the container, on the outside of which the groove is provided.

Es hat sich nun gezeigt, dass die bekannten Nuten den insbesondere am Ende des Entleervorganges, wenn auf die Nut bzw. die sie begrenzenden Bauteile Biegekräfte einwirken, auftretenden Belastungen nur schlecht standhält und häufig, insbesondere im Randbereich, bricht.It has now been found that the known grooves, especially at the end of the emptying process, when the groove or the components that limit bending forces act on it, withstand only poorly and frequently, especially in the edge region, breaks.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, einen Müllbehälter der eingangs genannten Gattung zur Verfügung zu stellen, dessen Nut (Kamm) so ausgebildet ist, dass sie den beim Entleeren eines Müllbehälters auftretenden Belastungen besser als bisher standhält.The invention is based on the object to provide a refuse container of the type mentioned available whose groove (comb) is designed so that it better withstand the loads occurring during emptying of a refuse container than before.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe erfindungsgemäß mit einem Müllbehälter, welcher die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 aufweist.This object is achieved according to the invention with a refuse container, which has the features of claim 1.

Bevorzugte und vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Preferred and advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Dadurch, dass bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Müllbehälter die Nut (Kamm), insbesondere der sie begrenzende Steg und der Schenkel, durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung dadurch elastisch federnd ausgebildet ist, dass die Zwischenrippe wenigstens einen federnden Bereich, in dem die Zwischenrippe aus ihrer Ebene nach wenigstens einer Seite hin abweicht, aufweist, gibt die Nut, trotz hinreichender Stabilität, den insbesondere am Ende eines Entleervorganges auftretenden Belastungen unter definiertem elastischen Verformen nach, sodass die Gefahr eines Bruches der Wand des Behälters im Bereich der Nut, des Steges und/oder des Schenkels beseitigt oder doch wenigstens stark verringert ist.Characterized in that in the refuse container according to the invention, the groove (comb), in particular the she-limiting web and the leg, characterized by the inventive design is elastically resilient, characterized in that the intermediate rib at least one resilient region in which the intermediate rib from its plane to at least one Side deviates, has the groove, despite sufficient stability, the particular occurring at the end of an emptying loads under defined elastic deformation, so that eliminates the risk of breakage of the wall of the container in the region of the groove, the web and / or the leg or at least greatly reduced.

Für die federnde Ausgestaltung der Nut (des Kammes) ist in einer Ausführungsform vorgesehen, dass die quer zur Wand verlaufenden Versteifungsrippen in zwei zueinander versetzt angeordnete Abschnitte unterteilt sind, die mit ihren im Bereich der Mitte der Nut liegenden Enden an der parallel zur Wand des Müllbehälters, an dem die Nut vorgesehen ist, ausgerichteten Zwischenrippe ansetzen.For the resilient configuration of the groove (of the comb) is provided in one embodiment that the transverse to the wall stiffening ribs are divided into two staggered sections arranged with their lying in the middle of the groove ends at the parallel to the wall of the refuse container , where the groove is provided, set aligned intermediate rib.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Müllbehälter sind zwei Reihen von Versteifungsrippen vorgesehen, die durch wenigstens eine Zwischenrippe miteinander verbunden sind. Die Versteifungsrippen der wenigstens zwei Reihen können entweder zueinander versetzt oder miteinander fluchtend angeordnet sein. Bei der fertigungstechnisch etwas aufwändigeren Anordnung von versetzt zueinander angeordneten Versteifungsrippen ergibt sich eine Verbesserung der Gesamtelastizität der die Nut begrenzenden Teile des Müllbehälters.In the garbage container according to the invention two rows of stiffening ribs are provided, which are interconnected by at least one intermediate rib. The stiffening ribs of the at least two rows can either be offset from one another or arranged in alignment with one another. In the production engineering somewhat more complex arrangement of mutually stiffening ribs results in an improvement in the overall elasticity of the groove bounding parts of the refuse container.

Im federnden Bereich weicht die Zwischenrippe in einer Ausführungsform dadurch aus ihrer Ebene ab, dass sie gewellt oder gezackt ist. Dabei schließen die sich von der Wand des Behälters zur Zwischenrippe hin erstreckenden Versteifungsrippen an diesen Bereichen der Zwischenrippe an. Zwischen dem wenigstens einen nicht-geraden Bereich der Zwischenrippe und dem die Nut außen begrenzenden Schenkel sind in einer Ausführungsform keine Versteifungsrippen vorgesehen.In the resilient region, in one embodiment, the intermediate rib deviates from its plane in that it is corrugated or jagged. In this case, the stiffening ribs extending from the wall of the container to the intermediate rib close to these regions of the intermediate rib. Between the at least one non-straight region of the intermediate rib and in one embodiment, no stiffening ribs are provided in the leg limiting the groove on the outside.

Durch die in einer Ausführungsform vorgesehene Wellenkonstruktion ergibt sich eine Verbesserung der Federwirkung. Durch diesen beispielsweise durch Vorsehen von Wellen (gewellte oder gezackte Bereiche der Zwischenrippe), federnden Bereich der Zwischenrippe, der insbesondere im Bereich von wenigstens einer größeren (höherer) Versteifungsrippe vorgesehen ist, ergibt sich der Vorteil, dass im Bereich einer solchen größeren Versteifungsrippe ein Federweg möglich ist, sodass die beim Entleeren des Behälters auftretenden Kräfte vom Kamm federnd an den Behälter geleitet werden. Mit Vorteil ist die Federwirkung so bemessen, dass die Dehnung der größeren Versteifungsrippe gleich hoch ist wie die Dehnung im übrigen Bereich des Kammes an den kritischen Stellen.By provided in one embodiment shaft construction results in an improvement of the spring action. By this, for example, by providing waves (corrugated or serrated areas of the intermediate rib), resilient region of the intermediate rib, which is provided in particular in the region of at least one larger (higher) stiffening rib, there is the advantage that in the region of such a larger stiffening rib a spring travel is possible, so that the forces occurring during emptying of the container are fed by the comb resiliently to the container. Advantageously, the spring action is such that the elongation of the larger stiffening rib is the same as the strain in the remaining area of the comb at the critical points.

Durch das zeitgleiche Wirken aller kraftübertragenden Elemente (Versteifungsrippe, federnder/gewellter Bereich der Zwischenrippe) wird eine außerordentlich hohe Widerstandsfähigkeit erreicht, weiters werden durch eine Federwirkung auftretende Schlagbelastungen verringert.Due to the simultaneous action of all force-transmitting elements (stiffening rib, resilient / corrugated area of the intermediate rib) an extremely high resistance is achieved, furthermore, occurring by a spring effect impact loads are reduced.

Neben der Nut selbst und der groß dimensionierten Versteifungsrippe wird das Widerstandsmoment auch durch die Verbindung der äußeren, vom Behälter entfernt liegenden Reihe von Versteifungsrippen mit der seitlichen Schürze (seitliches Ende des der Nut nach außen begrenzenden Schenkels) erreicht. Auch in diesem Bereich gibt es bei den derzeit bekannten Konstruktionen von Müllbehältern das Problem, dass er isoliert von den anderen Bereichen, also nicht gleichzeitig, wirkt. Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Konstruktion eines Müllbehälters ist in einer Ausführungsform der Radius der Verbindung so gewählt, dass auch dieser Bereich zeitgleich und dehnungsgleich mit den anderen Bereichen wirkt.In addition to the groove itself and the large-sized stiffening rib, the resistance moment is also achieved by the connection of the outer, remote from the container row of stiffening ribs with the side skirt (lateral end of the groove outwardly limiting leg). Also in this area, there is the problem with the currently known constructions of garbage containers that it acts in isolation from the other areas, ie not at the same time. In the construction of a refuse container according to the invention, in one embodiment, the radius of the connection is chosen such that this area also acts simultaneously and with the same extent as the other areas.

Im Ergebnis kann bei einem erfindungsgemäßen Müllbehälter vorgesehen sein, dass die Dehnungen und übertragbaren Kräfte aller Bereiche im optimalen Bereich des Werkstoffes liegen und zeitgleich arbeiten. Zudem wird der Nut (Kamm) eine Elastizität gegeben, so dass der erfindungsgemäße Müllbehälter auch den Belastungen durch Trägheitsmomente standhält.As a result, it can be provided in a refuse container according to the invention that the strains and transferable forces of all areas are within the optimum range of the material and work simultaneously. In addition, the groove (comb) is given an elasticity, so that the refuse container according to the invention also withstands the loads due to moments of inertia.

Es ist davon auszugehen, dass in allen in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsformen von Müllbehältern, also auch in jenen der Fig. 2 bis 11, die nicht dargestellte Hälfte der Nut 1 zur dargestellten Hälfte der Nut 1 spiegelsymmetrisch ausgebildet ist.In the in the Figures 1 and 1a From two different angles shown known refuse container, the downwardly open groove 1 (the Fig. 1 and 1a show - as well as the other figures - only one half of the groove 1 in the direction along the outside of the wall 3 of the container from bottom to top, so looking away from the bottom of the refuse container into the interior of the groove) container side of the wall 3 of the Container, bounded at the top by a connected to the upper end of the wall 3 of the container web 5 and by a distance from the wall 3 to this substantially parallel aligned leg 7. It is assumed that in all embodiments shown in the drawings of garbage containers, including in those of Fig. 2 to 11 , the half of the groove 1, not shown, formed to the illustrated half of the groove 1 is mirror-symmetrical.

In der Nut 1 sind über die Länge der Wand 3 verteilt mehrere, zur Wand 3 im Wesentlichen senkrecht stehende Versteifungsrippen 9 vorgesehen, die vom äußeren Schenkel 7 zur Wand 3 des Behälters hin durchgehend ausgebildet sind. Etwa in der Mitte der Nut 1 ist eine längslaufende (parallel zur Wand 3 verlaufende) Zwischenrippe 11 vorgesehen.In the groove 1 are distributed over the length of the wall 3 a plurality of, substantially perpendicular to the wall 3 stiffening ribs 9 are provided which are formed from the outer leg 7 to the wall 3 of the container through. Approximately in the middle of the groove 1 is a longitudinal (parallel to the wall 3 extending) intermediate rib 11 is provided.

Im Bereich des Ecken des Behälters sind in der Nut 1 Ringe 13 ausgebildet. Jeder Ring 13 weist in das Innere der Nut 1 und ist zur Aufnahme von Clips zur Kennzeichnung/Erkennung des Müllbehälters vorgesehen.In the region of the corners of the container 1 rings 13 are formed in the groove. Each ring 13 points into the interior of the groove 1 and is provided for receiving clips for identification / recognition of the refuse container.

Es ist erkennbar, dass bei den in den Fig. 1 und 1a gezeigten, bekannten Ausführungsformen die Nut 1 durch die Versteifungsrippen 9 über ihre ganze Länge ausgesteift ist, also praktisch keine Federwirkung zeigt, sodass die eingangs geschilderten Probleme, insbesondere am Beginn eines Entleervorganges, wenn wegen des Trägheitsmomentes des anzuhebenden Behälters auf die die Nut begrenzenden Teile des Behälters (insbesondere den Steg 5 und den Schenkel 7) Kräfte einwirken, die diesen zu verformen suchen. Sinngemäßes gilt auch am Ende des Entleervorganges, wenn der Behälter gerüttelt wird und im Wesentlichen um eine parallel zur Nut 1 verlaufende Achse unter Verformen, insbesondere des Steges 5 und des Schenkels 7, hin und her kippt, auftreten.It can be seen that in the in the Fig. 1 and 1a shown, the groove 1 is stiffened by the stiffening ribs 9 over its entire length, so the initially described problems, especially at the beginning of an emptying process, if due to the moment of inertia of the container to be lifted on the groove bounding parts of the Container (in particular the web 5 and the leg 7) act forces that seek to deform this. The same applies at the end of the emptying process, when the container is shaken and substantially tilts around a parallel to the groove 1 axis under deformation, in particular of the web 5 and the leg 7, back and forth, occur.

Bei der in Fig. 2 gezeigten, ersten Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Müllbehälters sind im Inneren der am oberen Rand der der Schwenkachse eines Deckels des Müllbehälters gegenüberliegenden Wand 3 des Müllbehälters angeordneten Nut 1 zwei Reihen 15, 17 von Versteifungsrippen 19, 21 vorgesehen. Dabei sind die Versteifungsrippen 19 der einen Reihe 15 gegenüber den Versteifungsrippen 21 der anderen Reihe 17 versetzt angeordnet.At the in Fig. 2 shown, first embodiment of a garbage container according to the invention are arranged inside the at the top of the pivot axis of a lid of the refuse container opposite wall 3 of the refuse container arranged groove 1 two rows 15, 17 of stiffening ribs 19, 21. Here are the stiffening ribs 19 of a row 15 offset from the stiffening ribs 21 of the other row 17 arranged.

Die einander benachbarten Enden der Versteifungsrippen 19, 21 beider Reihen 15, 17 schließen an eine Zwischenrippe 11 an, wobei im Bereich der behälterwandseitigen Reihe 15 von Versteifungsrippen 19 eine weitere längslaufende Zwischenrippe 11' vorgesehen ist.The adjacent ends of the stiffening ribs 19, 21 of both rows 15, 17 close to an intermediate rib 11, wherein in the region of the container wall side row 15 of stiffening ribs 19, a further longitudinal intermediate rib 11 'is provided.

Die äußere Zwischenrippe 11 ist im Bereich einer in der oberen Abschlusswand (Steg 5) der Nut 1 ausgebildeten Stufe 23 vorgesehen.The outer intermediate rib 11 is provided in the region of a step 23 formed in the upper end wall (web 5) of the groove 1.

Um die Elastizität der Nut 1, insbesondere die Elastizität des Steges 5 und des äußeren Schenkels 7, der die Nut 1 begrenzt, zu erhöhen, ist eine größer, insbesondere höher ausgebildete Versteifungsrippe 19' vorgesehen, die mit ihrem von der Wand 3 abgekehrten Ende die Stufe 23 im Steg 5 übergreift und einen etwa sinus-förmig gewellt ausgebildeten Abschnitt 12 der Zwischenrippe 11 querend endet. In dem gewellten Bereich 12 sind keine äußeren Versteifungsrippen 21 vorgesehen, sondern es sind die zwei neben dem Bereich 12 liegenden Versteifungsrippen 21 miteinander durch eine Zick-Zack-förmige Rippe 25 verbunden, wobei die zur Behälterwand 3 hin weisenden Spitzen der Zick-Zack verlaufenden Rippe 25 mit der dort (Bereich 12) zum Schenkel 7 hin konvex gebogenen Teil der gewellt ausgebildeten Zwischenrippe 11 verbunden sind.In order to increase the elasticity of the groove 1, in particular the elasticity of the web 5 and the outer leg 7, which limits the groove 1, a larger, in particular higher-trained stiffening rib 19 'is provided, with its turned away from the wall 3 end the Level 23 engages over the web 5 and ends an approximately sinusoidally wavy formed portion 12 of the intermediate rib 11 crossing. In the corrugated region 12, no outer stiffening ribs 21 are provided, but it is the two adjacent to the region 12 stiffening ribs 21 connected to each other by a zigzag-shaped rib 25, wherein the container wall 3 facing the tips of the zig-zag extending rib 25 with the there (area 12) to the leg 7 convexly bent part of the corrugated intermediate rib 11 are connected.

Bei der in Fig. 2 gezeigten Ausführungsform ist neben der höheren Versteifungsrippe 19' eine gewöhnliche Versteifungsrippe 19 vorgesehen, die nur bis zur Stufe 23 reicht. Bei der in Fig. 2 gezeigten Ausführungsform ist der Ring 13 zwischen zwei Versteifungsrippen 19 der behälterwandseitigen Reihe 15 von Versteifungsrippen 19 vorgesehen und berührt die Zwischenrippe 11.At the in Fig. 2 shown embodiment, an ordinary stiffening rib 19 is provided in addition to the higher stiffening rib 19 ', which extends only to the level 23. At the in Fig. 2 As shown embodiment, the ring 13 is provided between two stiffening ribs 19 of the container wall side row 15 of stiffening ribs 19 and contacts the intermediate rib eleventh

Die Fig. 3 zeigt eine zweite Ausführungsform des erfindungs-gemäßen Müllbehälters, die ähnlich der in Fig. 2 gezeigten ausgeführt ist, wobei eine (gewöhnliche) Versteifungsrippe 19, die neben der höheren Versteifungsrippe 19' angeordnet ist, bis zum gewellten Abschnitt 12 der Zwischenrippe 11 reicht und mit ihrem freien Ende mit dem einen Bogen des Bereiches 12 und einer zum Behälter hin weisenden Zacke der Rippe 25 verbunden, z.B. einstückig ausgebildet ist. Der Ring 13 ist bei der in Fig. 3 gezeigten zweiten Ausführungsform mit seiner Mitte näher zur Zwischenrippe 11 hin versetzt angeordnet, sodass er in dieser Ausführungsform nur als Teilring vorliegt.The Fig. 3 shows a second embodiment of the inventive refuse container, similar to the in Fig. 2 is shown, with an (ordinary) stiffening rib 19, which is arranged adjacent to the higher stiffening rib 19 ', to the corrugated portion 12 of the intermediate rib 11 extends and with its free end to the one arc of the area 12 and a pointing towards the container point of the Rib 25 connected, for example, is integrally formed. The ring 13 is at the in Fig. 3 shown second embodiment arranged with its center closer to the intermediate rib 11 out, so that it is present in this embodiment only as a partial ring.

Die Figuren 4 und 4a zeigen eine dritte bzw. vierte Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Müllbehälters ähnlich jenen der Fig. 2 und 3, in jeweils anderer Ansicht, wobei zu erkennen ist, dass zwei Reihen 15, 17 von zur Behälterwand 3 im Wesentlichen normal stehenden Versteifungsrippen 19, 21 vorgesehen sind, die durch eine Zwischenrippe 11, die parallel zur Behälterwand 3 ausgerichtet verläuft, und an der die Enden der Versteifungsrippen 19, 21 jeder der beiden Reihen 15, 17 anschließen und mit dieser Zwischenrippe 11 z.B. einstückig verbunden sind. In den Fig. 4 und 4a ist auch die Ausbildung der Zick-Zack verlaufenden Rippe 25, des gewellt verlaufenden Bereiches 12 der Zwischenrippe 11 und der höher ausgebildeten Versteifungsrippe 19' dargestellt. Bei den in den Fig. 4 und 4a gezeigten Ausführungsformen sind neben der größeren Versteifungsrippe 19' keine Versteifungsrippen 19 (anders als erfindungsgemäß bei der Ausführungsform von Fig. 3) vorgesehen.The FIGS. 4 and 4a show a third and fourth embodiment of a refuse container according to the invention similar to those of Fig. 2 and 3 , in each case different view, wherein it can be seen that two rows 15, 17 of the container wall 3 substantially normal stiffening ribs 19, 21 are provided, which extends through an intermediate rib 11, which is aligned parallel to the container wall 3, and at the Ends of the stiffening ribs 19, 21 connect each of the two rows 15, 17 and are connected in one piece with this intermediate rib 11, for example. In the Fig. 4 and 4a is also the formation of the zig-zag extending rib 25, the wavy extending portion 12 of the intermediate rib 11 and the higher-trained stiffening rib 19 'shown. In the in the Fig. 4 and 4a shown embodiments, in addition to the larger stiffening rib 19 'no stiffening ribs 19 (unlike the invention in the embodiment of Fig. 3 ) intended.

Die in Fig. 4 und 4a gezeigten Ausführungsformen sind insofern gegenüber den Ausführungsformen der Fig. 2 und 3 abgeändert, als die Reihe 15 der im Bereich der behälterseitig angeordneten Versteifungsrippen 19 jeweils Ringe 13 aufweist, welche zum Teil behälterseitige Versteifungsrippen 19 unterbrechen und zum Teil das der Zwischenrippe 11 benachbarte Ende von Versteifungsrippen 19 bilden. So wird die Elastizität der Nut 1 weiter erhöht. Die in Fig. 4a gezeigte fünfte Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Behälters unterscheidet sich von der in Fig. 4 gezeigten vierten Ausführungsform noch dadurch, dass außerhalb des äußersten Ringes in der Reihe 17 von Versteifungsrippen 21 zusätzliche Versteifungsrippen 21 vorgesehen sind.In the Fig. 4 and 4a Embodiments shown are so far compared to the embodiments of Fig. 2 and 3 modified, as the row 15 of the container side arranged stiffening ribs 19 each have rings 13 which partially interrupt container-side stiffening ribs 19 and partly form the intermediate rib 11 adjacent end of stiffening ribs 19. Thus, the elasticity of the groove 1 is further increased. In the Fig. 4a shown fifth embodiment of a container according to the invention differs from the in Fig. 4 shown fourth embodiment, in that outside of the outermost ring in the row 17 of stiffening ribs 21 additional stiffening ribs 21 are provided.

Die in Fig. 5 gezeigte fünfte Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Müllbehälters ist ähnlich aufgebaut wie die in Fig. 4a gezeigte vierte Ausführungsform, wobei die Anordnung der Ringe 13 unter-schiedlich ist. Bei der in Fig. 5 gezeigten Ausführungsform sind die Ringe 13 zum Teil unvollständig (ähnlich wie bei der in Fig. 3 gezeigten Ausführungsform) ausgebildet. Der zum Schenkel 7 hin konvexe Abschnitt des gewellten Bereichs 12 der Zwischenrippe 11 verläuft konzentrisch zu dem neben der höheren Versteifungsrippe 19' liegenden Ring 13 der in Fig. 5 gezeigten Ausführungsform. Die in Fig. 5 gezeigte Ausführungsform besitzt zusätzliche Versteifungsrippen 19, die bis zur behälterseitigen Zwischenrippe 11' reichen und jeweils zwischen zwei Ringen 13 angeordnet sind.In the Fig. 5 shown fifth embodiment of a refuse container according to the invention is constructed similar to those in Fig. 4a shown fourth embodiment, wherein the arrangement of the rings 13 is different. At the in Fig. 5 In the embodiment shown, the rings 13 are partly incomplete (similar to that in FIG Fig. 3 shown embodiment) is formed. The convex to the leg 7 portion of the corrugated portion 12 of the intermediate rib 11 extends concentrically to the next to the higher stiffening rib 19 'lying ring 13 of the Fig. 5 shown embodiment. In the Fig. 5 embodiment shown has additional stiffening ribs 19 which extend to the container-side intermediate rib 11 'and are each arranged between two rings 13.

Die in Fig. 6 gezeigte sechste Ausführungsform ergibt die verbesserte Elastizität der die Nut 1 begrenzenden Wandteile (Wand 3, Steg 5, Schenkel 7), insbesondere des äußeren Schenkels 7, dadurch, dass wenigstens an einer Stelle die außerhalb der im Steg 5 vorgesehenen Stufe 23 angeordneten Versteifungsrippen 21 fehlen und dort die die beiden Reihen 15, 17 von Versteifungsrippen 19, 21 miteinander verbindende Zwischenrippe 11 gewellt ist (Bereich 12). Die Wellung ist dabei so gewählt, dass zwischen den angrenzenden Versteifungsrippen 21 die Zwischenrippe 11 im Bereich 12 nach außen (zum Schenkel 7 hin) konvex ist und die Grenze zwischen den beiden Bögen im Bereich der größeren wandseitigen Versteifungsrippe 19' liegt und mit dieser verbunden ist. Bei dieser Ausführungsform sind die Versteifungsrippen 21 der äußeren Reihe 17 (zwischen dem Schenkel 5 und der im Bereich der Stufe 23 angeordneten Zwischenrippe 11) zu den Versteifungsrippen 19 der behälterseitigen Reihe 15 nicht versetzt angeordnet, sondern die Versteifungsrippen 19 und 21 sind miteinander fluchtend angeordnet.In the Fig. 6 shown sixth embodiment gives the improved elasticity of the groove 1 limiting wall parts (wall 3, web 5, leg 7), in particular of the outer leg 7, characterized in that at least at one point outside the provided in the web 5 stage 23 arranged stiffening ribs 21 are missing and there the two rows 15, 17 of stiffening ribs 19, 21 interconnecting intermediate rib 11 is corrugated (area 12). The corrugation is chosen so that between the adjacent stiffening ribs 21, the intermediate rib 11 in the region 12 to the outside (towards the leg 7) is convex and the boundary between the two arches in the region of the larger wall-side stiffening rib 19 'is connected and connected thereto , In this embodiment, the stiffening ribs 21 of the outer row 17 (between the leg 5 and the intermediate rib 11 arranged in the region of the step 23) are not offset from the stiffening ribs 19 of the container-side row 15, but the stiffening ribs 19 and 21 are arranged in alignment with each other.

In Fig. 7 (siebente Ausführungsform) sind die beidseits der Zwischenrippe 11' angeordneten Abschnitte der Versteifungsrippen 19 zueinander versetzt. Im Übrigen entspricht diese Ausführungsform - abgesehen davon, dass der Ring 13 hier vollständig ist - der in Fig. 6 gezeigten sechsten Ausführungsform.In Fig. 7 (Seventh embodiment), the both sides of the intermediate rib 11 'arranged portions of the stiffening ribs 19 are offset from one another. Incidentally, this embodiment corresponds to - except that the ring 13 is complete here - the in Fig. 6 shown sixth embodiment.

Die Fig. 8 und 9 zeigen mit Fig. 6 bzw. 7 ähnliche Ausführungsformen (achte und neunte Ausführungsform), wobei jedoch dort die Versteifungsrippen 19 und 21 beider Reihen 15, 17 wie bei den anderen Ausführungsformen versetzt zueinander angeordnet sind und die Versteifungsrippen 19 je zwei zueinander versetzte Abschnitte aufweisen.The 8 and 9 show with Fig. 6 or 7 similar embodiments (eighth and ninth embodiment), but where there the stiffening ribs 19 and 21 of both rows 15, 17 are offset from each other as in the other embodiments and the stiffening ribs 19 each have two mutually offset portions.

Die Fig. 10 und 11 zeigen mit Fig. 6, 7 ähnliche Ausführungsformen (zehnte und elfte Ausführungsform), wobei jedoch dort die Versteifungsrippen 19 und 21 beider Reihen 15, 17 wie bei den anderen Ausführungsformen versetzt zueinander angeordnet sind und die Versteifungsrippen 19 nicht zueinander versetzt angeordnete Abschnitte aufweisen.The 10 and 11 show with Fig. 6, 7 Similar embodiments (tenth and eleventh embodiment), but where the stiffening ribs 19 and 21 of both rows 15, 17 are offset from each other as in the other embodiments and the stiffening ribs 19 have not staggered portions.

Der Schenkel 7 kann in allen Ausführungsformen an seinen seitlichen Enden gekrümmt sein, wobei bevorzugt ist, wenn die Krümmung zum Ende des Schenkels hin stärker (kleiner werdender Radius der Krümmung) wird. Bevorzugt ist eine Krümmung, die einer Viertel-Ellipse angenähert ist.The leg 7 may be curved at its lateral ends in all embodiments, it being preferred if the curvature becomes stronger towards the end of the leg (decreasing radius of curvature). Preference is given to a curvature which approximates a quarter ellipse.
