Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verpackungsbehälter aus Kunststoff, mit einem Behälterkörper, der am vorderen Ende eine Stirnwand mit einem Anschlussstutzen aufweist und am rückwärtigen Ende vor der Befüllung offen ist.The invention relates to a packaging container made of plastic, with a container body which has an end wall with a connecting piece at the front end and is open at the rear end before filling.

Derartige Verpackungsbehälter dienen zur Aufnahme von Dichtmasse, Fugenmasse, Kleber u. dgl. Sie enthalten einen mit dem Kartuschenkörper zusammenwirkenden Kolbenboden, der mittels eines Auspresswerkzeugs vorgeschoben werden kann, um die Masse aus dem Anschlussstutzen auszupressen. In dem Verpackungsbehälter ist die Masse hermetisch gegen die Umgebung abgeschlossen. Zum Öffnen wird mit einem Schneidwerkzeug ein Teil des Anschlussstutzens entfernt, so dass eine Öffnung im Anschlussstutzen freigelegt wird. Die Anwendung eines Schneidwerkzeugs ist umständlich und es besteht in der Anwendung Verletzungsgefahr. Sie erfordert das Aufnehmen des Schneidwerkzeugs, dessen Ansetzen an der richtigen Stelle des Anschlussstutzens und schließlich das Abtrennen. Das abgetrennte Teil ist lose und fällt in der Regel auf den Boden.Such packaging containers are used to hold sealant, grout, adhesive u. Like. They contain a co-operating with the cartridge body piston crown, which can be advanced by means of a Auspresswerkzeugs to squeeze the mass of the connecting piece. In the packaging container, the mass is hermetically sealed against the environment. To open a part of the connecting piece is removed with a cutting tool, so that an opening in the connection piece is exposed. The use of a cutting tool is cumbersome and there is the risk of injury. It requires picking up the cutting tool, setting it in place on the fitting, and finally cutting it off. The separated part is loose and usually falls to the ground.

Ein Verpackungsbehälter, der am Anschlussstutzen einen Handgriff aufweist, ist beschrieben in PCT/EP2007/059478 (nicht vorveröffentlicht). Bei diesem Verpackungsbehälter kann das Abreißteil manuell von dem Anschlussstutzen abgerissen werden, ohne dass ein Werkzeug benötigt wird.A packaging container which has a handle on the connection piece is described in PCT / EP2007 / 059478 (not pre-published). In this packaging container, the tear-off can be torn off manually from the connection piece, without a tool is needed.

Ein Verpackungsbehälter, von dem der Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 ausgeht, ist beschrieben in EP 149 1460 A2 . Dieser Verpackungsbehälter weist einen Behälterkörpers mit einem Anschlussstutzen auf. Der Anschlussstutzen ist über eine Sollbruchstelle mit einem Abreißteil verbunden. Das Abreißteil ist mit einem Handgriff zum manuellen Entfernen des Abreißteils von dem Anschlussstutzen verbunden.A packaging container from which the preamble of claim 1 proceeds is described in EP 149 1460 A2 , This packaging container has a container body with a connection piece. The connecting piece is connected via a predetermined breaking point with a tear-off. The tear-off is connected to a handle for manually removing the tear-off of the spigot.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Verpackungsbehälter zu schaffen, der mit einer Applikationsdüse ausgestattet ist, welche im Lagerzustand in einer definierten Position gehalten wird.The invention has for its object to provide a packaging container, which is equipped with an application nozzle, which is held in the storage state in a defined position.

Der erfindungsgemäße Verpackungsbehälter ist durch den Patentanspruch 1 definiert. Er hat an dem Anschlussstutzen eine Sollbruchstelle, wobei ein mit einem Handgriff versehenes Abreißteil von der Sollbruchstelle abgerissen werden kann. Weiterhin ist eine am Behälterkörper befestigte Applikationsdüse zur Anbringung an dem Anschlussstutzen vorgesehen. Vorzugsweise ist diese Applikationsdüse ebenfalls ohne Zuhilfenahme eines Schneidwerkzeugs gebrauchsfertig. Ein Ziel besteht in der Schaffung eines Applikationssystems, bei dem der Anwender keinerlei Werkzeug benötigt, und zwar weder zum Öffnen des Verpackungsbehälters noch zur Benutzung der Applikationsdüse.The packaging container according to the invention is defined by the patent claim 1. He has at the connection piece a predetermined breaking point, wherein a tear-off provided with a handle can be demolished by the predetermined breaking point. Furthermore, an application nozzle attached to the container body is provided for attachment to the connecting piece. Preferably, this application nozzle is also ready for use without the aid of a cutting tool. One goal is to create an application system the user does not need any tools, neither to open the packaging container nor to use the application nozzle.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist die Applikationsdüse eine flexible Lasche auf, die an dem Anschlussstutzen befestigt ist. Des weiteren ist die Applikationsdüse nach dem Entfernen des Abreißteils unter Biegung der Lasche auf den Anschlussstutzen aufsetzbar und mit diesem verbindbar. Einerseits ist die Applikationsdüse dadurch bereits im Lieferzustand unverlierbar mit dem Verpackungsbehälter verbunden. Andererseits braucht sie lediglich unter Biegung der Lasche auf den geöffneten Anschlussstutzen aufgesetzt und mit diesem verbunden zu werden. Wenn der Handgriff sich mit dem Abreißteil noch an dem Anschlussstutzen befindet, ist eine Befestigung der Applikationsdüse an dem Anschlussstutzen nicht möglich. Eine solche Befestigung kann erst nach dem Entfernen des Abreißteils erfolgen. Die Lasche bildet gewissermaßen ein Gelenk zum Aufsetzen der Applikationsdüse auf den Anschlussstutzen. Die Lasche der Applikationsdüse kann an dem Anschlussstutzen drehbar gelagert sein, damit die Applikationsdüse nach dem Entfernen des Abreißteils auf den Anschlussstutzen aufgeschraubt werden kann.In a preferred embodiment, the application nozzle has a flexible tab attached to the spud. Furthermore, after removal of the tear-off part, the application nozzle can be placed on the connecting piece with bending of the tab and can be connected to it. On the one hand, the application nozzle is thereby already in the delivery state captive connected to the packaging container. On the other hand, it only needs to be placed under bending the tab on the open connection piece and connected to this. If the handle is still with the tear-off on the Connection piece is located, it is not possible to attach the application nozzle to the connection piece. Such attachment can only be made after removal of the tear-off. The tab forms a kind of hinge for placing the application nozzle on the connection piece. The tab of the application nozzle may be rotatably mounted on the connection piece, so that the application nozzle can be screwed onto the connection piece after removal of the tear-off part.

Zweckmäßigerweise hat die Lasche einen Ring, der in einer umlaufenden Nut des Anschlussstutzens sitzt. Dadurch ist die Lasche unverlierbar am Anschlussstutzen befestigt. Beim Abreißen des Abreißteils bleibt die Nut unbeschädigt. Die Nut ist oben und unten durch eine Flanke begrenzt, so dass der Ring der Lasche darin einrastet.Conveniently, the tab has a ring which sits in a circumferential groove of the connecting piece. As a result, the tab is captively fastened to the connection piece. When tearing off the tear-off the groove remains undamaged. The groove is bounded above and below by an edge, so that the ring of the tab snaps into it.

Die Lasche weist eine Aussparung für den Durchgang des Handgriffs beim Anbringen der Lasche am Behälter auf. Dadurch wird die Lasche sowohl gegen Verdrehung in Bezug auf den Anschlussstutzen als auch gegen vorzeitiges Hochbiegen gesichert. Hierzu reicht der Handgriff bis nahe an die Stirnwand und an den Außenumfang des Kartuschenkörpers heran. Da der Handgriff an dem Anschlussstutzen angebracht ist, wird die Applikationsdüse im Lagerzustand in einer definierten Position in Bezug auf den Handgriff gehalten. Hierdurch wird eine einheitliche Ausrichtung der Applikationsdüsen aller Verpackungsbehälter sichergestellt. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass jede Düse immer positionsgenau zur Kartusche angebracht ist, wodurch die Kartusche ebenfalls positionsgenau in einen Umkarton automatisch verpackt werden kann und später im Regal des Baumarktes alle Kartuschen gleich aufgestellt werden können.The tab has a recess for the passage of the handle when attaching the tab to the container. As a result, the tab is secured against rotation with respect to the connecting piece as well as against premature bending up. For this purpose, the handle reaches close to the end wall and on the outer circumference of the cartridge body. Since the handle is attached to the spigot, the application nozzle is held in the storage state in a defined position with respect to the handle. This ensures a uniform alignment of the application nozzles of all packaging containers. This has the advantage that each nozzle is always positioned exactly to the cartridge, so that the cartridge can also be accurately packed into a carton accurately positioned and later on the shelf of the hardware store all cartridges can be placed the same.

Bei einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist der Handgriff horizontal, im wesentlichen parallel beabstandet zur Stirnwand des Behälterkörpers angeordnet und mit dem Abreißteil des Anschlussstutzens verbunden. Die Lasche der Applikationsdüse ist hierbei entweder oberhalb oder unterhalb des Handgriffs mit dem Anschlussstutzen verbunden. Ist die Verbindung unterhalb des Handgriffs, so kann zuerst das Abreißteil entfernt werden und die Applikationsdüse dann auf den Anschlussstutzen gebogen werden. Ist die Verbindung oberhalb des Handgriffs, so muss die Lasche der Applikationsdüse zuerst entfernt werden, um dann das Abreißteil zu entfernen.In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the handle is arranged horizontally, substantially parallel spaced from the end wall of the container body and with the tear-off of the connecting piece connected. The tab of the application nozzle is here either above or below the handle connected to the connection piece. If the connection is below the handle, the tear-off part can be removed first and then the application nozzle can be bent onto the connecting piece. If the connection is above the handle, the tab of the application nozzle must first be removed to then remove the tear-off.

Zweckmäßigerweise ist der Handgriff ergonomisch gestaltet und er weist hierzu eine örtlich variierende Dicke auf. Es besteht die Möglichkeit, den Handgriff einseitig mit dem Abreißteil zu verbinden, oder auch, um ein Abdrehen des Abreißteiles zu ermöglichen, flügelartig an mindestens zwei Seiten mit dem Abreißteil zu verbinden.Conveniently, the handle is ergonomically designed and it has for this purpose a locally varying thickness. It is possible to connect the handle on one side with the tear-off, or to allow a twisting of the tear-off, wing-like connect at least two sides with the tear-off.

An der Sollbruchstelle kann eine permeationsvermindernde Schicht angeordnet sein. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass auch im Bereich der Sollbruchstelle eine erhöhte Barrierewirkung der Verpackung gegeben ist und das Verpackungsgut gegen externe Einflüsse geschützt wird. Die permeationsvermindernde Schicht, die beispielsweise aus einer Metall- oder Kunststofffolie besteht, kann auch die Sollbruchstelle bilden.At the predetermined breaking point, a permeation-reducing layer can be arranged. This ensures that even in the region of the predetermined breaking point an increased barrier effect of the packaging is given and the packaged goods are protected against external influences. The permeation-reducing layer, which consists for example of a metal or plastic film, can also form the predetermined breaking point.

Vorzugsweise hat die Applikationsdüse eine Ausgabeöffnung mit einem werkzeuglos entfernbaren Verschluss. Dieser Verschluss kann aus einem Abreißteil bestehen, das ein Greiforgan zum Abbrechen aufweist, oder aus einer aufgesetzten Kappe. Die Applikationsdüse kann auch mehrere unterschiedlich große Düsenöffnungen haben, die manuell abbrechbar sind, so dass eine Düsenöffnung gewünschter Größe und/oder Form auswählbar ist.Preferably, the application nozzle has a dispensing opening with a tool-free removable closure. This closure may consist of a tear-off part, which has a gripping member for breaking off, or of an attached cap. The application nozzle may also have a plurality of different sized nozzle openings, which are manually abbrechbar, so that a nozzle opening of desired size and / or shape is selectable.

Der Verschluss kann auch aus einer aufgesetzten Kappe bestehen, die abnehmbar bzw. durch ein mitgeliefertes weiteres Düsenteil ersetzbar ist.The closure may also consist of an attached cap, which is removable or replaceable by a supplied additional nozzle part.

Im Folgenden werden unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung näher erläutert.In the following, embodiments of the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawings.

Der Verpackungsbehälter besteht aus einer starren Kartusche aus einem langgestreckten zylindrischen Behälterkörper 10 aus Kunststoff. Der Behälterkörper 10 ist am rückwärtigen Ende 11 offen und er weist am vorderen Ende 12 eine Stirnwand 13 auf. Im Zentrum der Stirnwand befindet sich ein nach vorne abstehender Anschlussstutzen 14 mit einem Schraubgewinde 15. Der Anschlussstutzen 14 weist eine ringförmige Sollbruchstelle 16 und ein Abreißteil 17 in Form einer Kappe auf. In der Kappe ist eine permeationsvermindernde Schicht 18 angeordnet, die sich an der Innenseite des Anschlussstutzens erstreckt und die Sollbruchstelle 16 innen überdeckt. Die Schicht 18 besteht beispielsweise aus einer Metallfolie oder einem anderen Material mit hoher Barrierewirkung für Dämpfe und Gase, wodurch die Sollbruchstelle 16, die eine verminderte Wanddicke hat, dicht gemacht wird.The packaging container consists of a rigid cartridge of an elongated cylindrical container body 10 made of plastic. The container body 10 is open at the rear end 11 and has an end wall 13 at the front end 12. In the center of the front wall is one after Front projecting connecting piece 14 with a screw thread 15. The connecting piece 14 has an annular predetermined breaking point 16 and a tear-off 17 in the form of a cap. In the cap, a permeation-reducing layer 18 is arranged, which extends on the inside of the connecting piece and the predetermined breaking point 16 covers inside. The layer 18 is made, for example, of a metal foil or other material with high barrier action for vapors and gases, whereby the predetermined breaking point 16, which has a reduced wall thickness, is made dense.

Das Abreißteil 17 ist mit einem Handgriff 20 einstückig verbunden. Der Handgriff 20 hat generell ringförmige Gestalt, so dass mit einem Finger in ihn eingegriffen werden kann. Bestandteil des Handgriffs 20 ist Ansatz 21, welcher mit dem Abreißteil 17 verbunden ist. Der Handgriff 20 befindet sich in einer Radialebene E in Bezug auf die Längsachse des Verpackungsbehälters. Er reicht bis nahe an die Stirnwand 13 heran und taucht in eine Mulde 13a der Stirnwand ein. Der Handgriff 20 erlaubt es, das Abreißteil 17 von dem Anschlussstutzen 14 manuell abzureißen, ohne dass es hierzu eines Werkzeugs bedarf. Das Abreißteil 17 mit dem Handgriff 20 wird dann entfernt.The tear-off 17 is integrally connected to a handle 20. The handle 20 has a generally annular shape, so that it can be intervened with a finger in it. Part of the handle 20 is approach 21, which is connected to the tear-off 17. The handle 20 is located in a radial plane E with respect to the longitudinal axis of the packaging container. It reaches close to the end wall 13 and dips into a depression 13a of the end wall. The handle 20 allows the tear-off 17 to tear off the connecting piece 14 manually, without the need for a tool for this purpose. The tear-off 17 with the handle 20 is then removed.

Zu dem Verpackungsbehälter gehört eine Applikationsdüse 25, die unverlierbar mit dem Verpackungsbehälter verbunden ist. Die Applikationsdüse 25 ist ein rohrförmiges Teil, das an einem Ende eine Gewindemuffe 26 mit einem Innengewinde 27 aufweist, welches auf das Außengewinde 15 des Anschlussstutzens 14 aufgeschraubt werden kann. Die Applikationsdüse weist einen langgestreckten kegelstumpfförmigen vorderen Teil 28 auf, der in einer offenen Spitze 29 endet. An dem rückwärtigen Ende der Muffe 26 ist eine Lasche 30 angeformt. Diese besteht aus einem flexiblen breiten Streifen, der von der Längsachse der Applikationsdüse 25 radial absteht. Die Lasche 30 bildet im Abstand von der Applikationsdüse 25 einen Ring 31, der in einer umlaufenden Nut 32 am Fuße des Anschlussstutzens 14 sitzt. Der Ring 31 rastet in der Nut 32 ein, so dass die Lasche nur mit Gewalt von dem Anschlussstutzen entfernt werden kann.To the packaging container includes an application nozzle 25 which is captively connected to the packaging container. The application nozzle 25 is a tubular member having at one end a threaded sleeve 26 with an internal thread 27 which can be screwed onto the external thread 15 of the connecting piece 14. The application nozzle has an elongate frusto-conical front portion 28 terminating in an open tip 29. At the rear end of the sleeve 26, a tab 30 is formed. This consists of a flexible wide strip which projects radially from the longitudinal axis of the application nozzle 25. The tab 30 forms at a distance from the application nozzle 25 a ring 31 which sits in a circumferential groove 32 at the foot of the connecting piece 14. The ring 31 snaps into the groove 32 a, so that the tab can only be removed by force from the connecting piece.

In der Lasche ist ferner eine schlitzförmige Aussparung 33 in Form einer durch das Material hindurchgehenden Öffnung vorgesehen. Diese Aussparung 33 dient zur Aufnahme des unteren Teils des Handgriffs 20. Dadurch wird eine Drehfixierung der Lasche 30 erreicht, die in Bezug auf den Handgriff 20 die gleiche radiale Ausrichtung erhält. Auf diese Weise wird eine definierte Ausrichtung der Applikationsdüse 25 in Bezug auf den Handgriff 20 erreicht. Dies ist vorteilhaft beim Lagern zahlreicher Verpackungsbehälter in einem Karton, wobei die definierte Ausrichtung der Applikationsdüsen platzsparend ist, und andererseits ist es auch vorteilhaft bei der Präsentation der Verpackungsbehälter in Verkaufsregalen, wobei sämtliche Verpackungsbehälter ein geordnetes gleichmäßiges Erscheinungsbild zeigen. Bei der Montage bzw. bei der Konfektionierung der Applikationsdüse 25 an den Anschlussstutzen 14 dient die Aussparung als Durchgangsöffnung zum Überstülpen der Lasche 30 über Bereiche des Handgriffs.In the tab, a slot-shaped recess 33 is further provided in the form of an opening passing through the material. This recess 33 serves to receive the lower part of the handle 20. This rotational fixation of the tab 30 is achieved, which receives with respect to the handle 20, the same radial orientation. In this way, a defined orientation of the application nozzle 25 with respect to the handle 20 is achieved. This is advantageous when storing numerous packaging containers in a carton, the defined orientation of the application nozzles is space-saving, and on the other hand, it is also advantageous in the presentation of packaging containers on shelves, all packaging containers show an orderly uniform appearance. During assembly or during assembly of the application nozzle 25 to the connecting piece 14, the recess serves as a passage opening for slipping over the tab 30 over areas of the handle.

Nach dem Abreißen des Abreißteils 17 mit dem Handgriff 20 kann die Applikationsdüse 25 durch flexibles Umbiegen der Lasche 30 um etwa 180° geschwenkt werden, so dass die Spitze 29 nach vorne zeigt und das Gewinde 27 vor dem Anschlussstutzen 14 angeordnet ist. Durch Drehen der Applikationsdüse werden die Schraubgewinde 15 und 27 in Eingriff gebracht und die Applikationsdüse wird an dem Behälterkörper 10 festgeschraubt. Hierbei dreht sich der Ring 31 in der Nut 32. Ein wichtiger Aspekt besteht darin, dass die Applikationsdüse 25 permanent an dem Behälterkörper angebracht ist und zum Aufschrauben nicht vom Behälterkörper gelöst werden muss. Sie ist vor der Anwendung gegen Verdrehen und/oder Verschwenken gesichert.After tearing off the tear-off 17 with the handle 20, the application nozzle 25 can be pivoted by flexible bending of the tab 30 by about 180 °, so that the tip 29 points forward and the thread 27 is disposed in front of the connecting piece 14. By turning the application nozzle, the screw threads 15 and 27 are brought into engagement and the application nozzle is screwed to the container body 10. In this case, the ring 31 rotates in the groove 32. An important aspect is that the application nozzle 25 is permanently attached to the container body and does not have to be loosened from the container body for screwing. It is secured against twisting and / or pivoting before use.

Wie Figur 2 zeigt, ist der Handgriff 20 innerhalb der Umfangskontur UK des Behälterkörpers 10 angeordnet. Dies bedeutet, dass er nicht seitlich aus der Kontur herausragt. Das obere Ende des Handgriffs überragt nicht das Abreißteil 17. Auf diese Weise bestehen in allen Richtungen eindeutige Begrenzungen.As FIG. 2 shows, the handle 20 is disposed within the circumferential contour of the container body 10 UK. This means that he does not sideways out of the Outline of contour. The upper end of the handle does not protrude beyond the tear-off portion 17. In this way, there are clear boundaries in all directions.

Die Applikationsdüse 25 weist ebenfalls einen manuell und ohne Werkzeuge zu öffnenden Verschluss auf. Dieser besteht in einem Falle aus einer die Öffnung der Spitze 29 verschließenden Kappe 35, die permeationsdicht ist. Die Kappe 35 kann nach Gebrauch der Applikationsdüse auf diese aufgesetzt werden und verhindert ein Aushärten des in der Applikationsdüse befindlichen Produkts.The application nozzle 25 also has a manually and without tools openable closure. This consists in a case of an opening of the tip 29 occlusive cap 35 which is permeation-tight. The cap 35 can be placed after use of the application nozzle on this and prevents hardening of the product located in the application nozzle.

Zusätzlich ist bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ein beidendig offenes Düsenteil 36 vorgesehen, das wahlweise auf die Kappe 35 oder auf die Applikationsdüse aufsetzbar ist und einen Fugenspachtel 37 bildet. Der Fugenspachtel 37 besteht ebenfalls aus einem rohrförmigen Teil mit daran befestigten flexiblen Flügeln 38, welche es ermöglichen, eine austretende Masse unverzüglich glatt zu streichen.In addition, in the present embodiment, a nozzle member 36 open at both ends is provided which can be placed either on the cap 35 or on the application nozzle and forms a joint spatula 37. The joint spatula 37 also consists of a tubular member with attached flexible wings 38, which make it possible to smoothly smooth an escaping mass.

Figur 4 zeigt eine weitere Ausführungsform einer Applikationsdüse 25a mit angeformter Lasche 30, wobei an dem vorderen Ende der Applikationsdüse ein Verschluss 40 aus hintereinander angeordneten einzeln abbrechbaren Ringen 41 gebildet ist. Jeder Ring 41 ist mit einem Greiforgan 42 als Handgriff ausgestattet. Das vordere Ende der Applikationsdüse 25a ist verschlossen. Durch gezieltes Abreißen oder Abbrechen der Ringe 41 kann die Größe der zu erzeugenden Düsenöffnung bestimmt werden. FIG. 4 shows a further embodiment of an application nozzle 25a with molded-on tab 30, wherein at the front end of the application nozzle, a closure 40 is formed of individually breakable rings 41 arranged one behind the other. Each ring 41 is equipped with a gripping member 42 as a handle. The front end of the application nozzle 25a is closed. By selectively tearing or breaking off the rings 41, the size of the nozzle opening to be generated can be determined.

Figur 5 zeigt ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer Applikationsdüse 25b mit mehreren Ringteilen 45, die durch ringförmige Sollbruchstellen 46 getrennt sind. Die einzelnen Ringe sind manuell abtrennbar, beispielsweise durch Abbrechen. Zu dieser Applikationsdüse kann zum Verschließen eine Kappe 35 vorgesehen sein. FIG. 5 shows an embodiment of an application nozzle 25b with a plurality of ring parts 45, which are separated by annular predetermined breaking points 46. The individual rings are manually separable, for example by canceling. A cap 35 may be provided for closing this application nozzle.

Der Verpackungsbehälter kann mit einer auf den Anschlussstutzen 14 gesetzten Schutzhaube oder Schutzhülse zum Schutz der Sollbruchstelle oder des Handgriffs versehen sein. Diese Schutzhaube kann auch Bestandteil der Lasche 30 der Applikationsdüse 25 sein.The packaging container can with a set on the connecting piece 14 protective cover or protective sleeve to protect the predetermined breaking point or the Handle be provided. This protective cover can also be part of the tab 30 of the application nozzle 25.

Der Behälterkörper kann auch aus einer flexiblen Hülle bestehen, die sich beim Auspressen in einem Auspresswerkzeug ziehharmonikaartig verformt. Die flexible Hülle kann aus ein- oder mehrschichtiger Verbundfolie zur Erzielung der gewünschten Barriereeigenschaften bestehen. Der Kolbenboden und die Stirnwand des Behälterkörpers können zusätzlich an die flexible Behälterwand angeformt und starr ausgeführt sein. The container body may also consist of a flexible shell, which deforms like an accordion when pressed in a Auspresswerkzeug. The flexible sheath may consist of single or multilayer composite film to achieve the desired barrier properties. The piston head and the end wall of the container body may additionally be formed on the flexible container wall and rigid.
