Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closure for a transport container according to the preamble of claim 1
  • Closures according to the preamble are also called butterfly or butterfly closures and have long been known, for example by US 3,516,125 . Such closures are often used on transport containers for instruments and equipment that can be stacked in vehicles such as airplanes and trucks. To protect the closures they are designed such that the closing mechanism does not protrude beyond the surface of the transport container at least in the closed state by the use of the shells.
  • the closure according to the invention is characterized in that at least one spring is arranged such that the closure hook is pressed in the direction of the bottom of the second shell in a rest position. This ensures that the locking hook and the parts connected to it are pressed into the shell both in an open position and in a closed position by the spring.
  • At least one further spring is provided according to an advantageous embodiment, the force of which is oriented so that the closure hook can engage only with pressure from the outside behind the closure edge.
  • a slope is arranged, which guides the closure hook on a displacement in the direction of the closure edge from the rest position to the closure edge ,
  • closure hook is provided with a bevel, which guides the closure hook on a displacement in the direction of the closure edge from the rest position to the closure edge.
  • closure edge is part of an opening of a closure housing. It is preferably provided that the opening is closed by the other spring, which releases the opening on pressure from the outside.
  • the force of the other spring is greater than the force exerted by the closure hook by the action of the spring on the other spring.
  • An advantageous embodiment of this embodiment further consists in that the second spring is a leaf spring having an expression in the region of the opening of the closure housing.
  • a nut serving to displace the closure hook is rotatable by means of a wing handle and pins engaging in recesses of the nut abut are molded substantially at 90 ° bent parts of the wing handle.
  • a generic closure is characterized in that the closure hook in the direction of the bottom of the second shell can be pressed into a rest position, and that a lift located below the closure hook cooperates with a survey at the bottom of the second shell, that during rotation of the nut of the locking hook can be raised by the rising during the opening of the closure on the survey lifter from the rest position and lowered accordingly during closing in the rest position.
  • the lifter is another with the nut rotatable eccentric.
  • This embodiment can be designed such that the further eccentric has the shape of a spherical cap.
  • a further advantageous embodiment is that the lifter is arranged on the closure hook.
  • This embodiment can be configured in a particularly simple manner such that the lifter is formed by a fold of the closure hook.
  • the closure edge is part of an opening of a closure housing.
  • An advantageous and inexpensive producible further embodiment of the invention is that the elevation at the bottom of the second shell is an embossment.
  • first shell 1 and a second shell 2 which can be installed sunk into the two parts of the container to be developed (lid and container), including a respective flange 3, 4 is provided with corresponding holes for riveting or screws ,
  • the edges 3, 4 are cranked at 6, 7, 8, 9 to accommodate edge reinforcements of the container and lid.
  • the shell 1 carries a closure housing 10, in which a leaf spring 11 is located, which closes an opening 12 in the unlocked state ( Figures 2 and 3) and is therefore provided with a corresponding expression 13A.
  • the closure housing 10 is provided with a slope 10 which lifts the closure hook 14 when closing the transport container.
  • the closure hook 14 is movably mounted in a guide 15 in the longitudinal direction.
  • a guide 15 for movement or displacement of the closure hook 14 is a nut 21, which acts on a non-illustrated eccentric on the locking hook.
  • a wing handle 16 of the locking hook 14 can be moved (shortened or extended).
  • the guide 15 is tiltably mounted in a further housing 17, which is mounted on the bottom of the second shell 2, wherein a leaf spring 18 (Fig. 2 to 4), the guide and thus the locking hook towards the bottom of the shell. 2 suppressed.
  • a wire spring 19 serves as an axis for the tiltable guide 15 and is mounted in slots (not shown) in the housing 17, while the ends of the wire spring are fixed.
  • Fig. 2 shows the two parts of the closure away from each other, as occurs in the open transport container.
  • the two parts of the transport container are pushed together, so that the closure hook slides over a slope 20 on the closure housing 10. Since the leaf spring 11 exerts a stronger force on the closure hook than the spring 18, a force has to be exerted on the closure hook 14 in the direction of the arrow 25 for closing and locking.
  • the locking hook is pressed into the opening 12, whereupon the locking hook 14 is tensioned against the action of the wire spring 19 by turning on the wing handle 16.
  • the movement of the locking hook 14 is effected by a rotatable nut 21 on which eccentrically a pin 22 is arranged, which engages in a corresponding recess of the guide 15.
  • cams are formed in a right angle bent portions, which engage in corresponding recesses in the nut 21.
  • the cams are rectangular and are loaded by a diaphragm spring, not shown, such that the wing handle 16 engages in the drawn flat or in an upwardly pointing position.
  • FIG. 5 shows parts of a further exemplary embodiment in which a closure hook 14 'which can be tilted in the direction of the double arrow 30 engages in the closed position behind a closure edge 26 which is formed by a rail 27 arranged on the shell 1.
  • a leaf spring 18 provided, which presses the guide 15 and thus the closure hook 14 'down.
  • Another leaf spring 28 prevents the closing of the closure before 29 pressure is exerted on the guide 15 in the direction of the arrow.
  • FIGS. 6 to 9 show further advantageous embodiments of the closure according to the invention.
  • first shell 1 'and a second shell 2' which can be installed sunk into the two parts of the container to be closed (lid and container), including a respective flange 3 ', 4' with corresponding holes for riveting or screws is provided.
  • the flanges 3 ', 4' are cranked at 6 ', 7', 8 ', 9' for adaptation to closing profiles of the container and the lid.
  • the shell 1 ' carries a closure housing 10' with an opening 12 '.
  • the closure hook 14 '' is movably mounted in a guide 15 'in the longitudinal direction.
  • a guide 15 ' For movement or displacement of the locking hook 14 '' is a nut 21 ', which acts on an eccentric, not shown on the locking hook 14 "by turning on a wing handle 16', the locking hook 14 '' shifted (shortened or extended)
  • the guide 15 ' is tiltably mounted in a further housing 17', which is mounted on the bottom of the second shell 2 ', wherein a leaf spring 18' ( Figures 7 and 9), the guide and thus the locking hook in the direction on the bottom of the shell 2 'presses.
  • a wire spring 19 ' serves as an axis for the tiltable guide 15' and is mounted in slots (not shown) in the housing 17 ', while the ends of the wire spring are fixed. As a result, a defined force is exerted in locking the closure, ie when tightening the closure hook 14 '' between the two shells 1 ', 2' despite existing tolerances.
  • Fig. 7a shows the two parts of the closure away from each other, as occurs in the open transport container.
  • Fig. 7b the two parts of the transport container are pushed together, with the locking hook 14 '' is above the opening 12 '.
  • This is effected by the fact that by rotation of the nut 21 'a dome-shaped eccentric 13' on a survey 11 'at the bottom of the second shell 2' runs.
  • FIG. 7c shows the closure hook 14 ' is advanced so far that it can engage in the opening 12' in the following locking process
  • wing handle 16 ' On the wing handle 16 'are formed in right angles bent portions 23', 24 'cam, which engage in corresponding recesses in the nut 21'.
  • the cams are rectangular and are loaded by a diaphragm spring, not shown, such that the wing handle 16 'engages in the flat or in an upwardly pointing position shown.
  • FIGS. 8a to 8d3 show parts of the embodiment according to FIGS. 6 and 7 in several phases of movement when the closure is opened.
  • Fig. 8a shows the zero position with the shutter closed, wherein the locking hook 14 "protrudes only slightly from the guide 15 '.
  • Figs. 8b and 8c show different positions during opening.
  • the closure hook 14 '' from the guide 15 ' is extended.
  • the locking hook is extended to 95%.
  • Fig. 8d1 the spherical cap 13 'begins to rise onto the elevation 11', whereby the closing hook 14 "begins the upward movement, which extends beyond the position shown in Fig. 8d2 to the end position according to Fig. 8d3
  • the sequence of movements is reversed, namely first lower and then close.
  • FIGS. 9a to 9c represent a second embodiment in which the lifting of the closure hook 14 '' 'is effected by means of an upstand 31' on the closure hook 14 '' 'which, upon extension of the Locking hook 14 '' 'from the guide 15' with a survey 11 '' at the bottom of the second shell 2 'cooperates.
