Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Behälter, der für den Transport und zur Lagerung von Flüssigkeit verwendet werden soll und der an einer Abgabestelle auch dazu benutzt werden soll, um die Flüssigkeit mithilfe eines geeigneten Geräts aus dem Behälter auszugeben. Es soll also auf diese Weise ein Umfüllen aus größeren in kleinere Behälter vermieden werden.The invention relates to a container which is to be used for the transport and storage of liquid and which should also be used at a delivery point to dispense the liquid from the container by means of a suitable device. It should therefore be avoided in this way a transfer from larger to smaller containers.

Behälter dieser Art, die man auch als Flaschen bezeichnen kann, haben häufig einen kreisrunden Querschnitt, da in diesem Fall die Belastung durch das Gewicht beim Transport und bei der Lagerung sich gleichmäßig auf die Wände auswirkt. Solche kreiszylinderförmigen Behälter haben eine hohe Stabilität. Sie haben aber den Nachteil, dass sie beim Transport Platz verschwenden, da der Raum zwischen den Behältern frei bleibt.Containers of this type, which can also be referred to as bottles, often have a circular cross-section, since in this case the load due to the weight during transport and during storage has a uniform effect on the walls. Such circular cylindrical containers have a high stability. But they have the disadvantage that they waste space during transport, since the space between the containers remains free.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung einen Behälter mit einem Halter mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 vor. Dokument EPO53419A1 offenbart einen Behälter mit einem Haltes mit den Merkmalen des oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1.To solve this problem, the invention proposes a container with a holder with the features of claim 1. document EPO53419A1 discloses a container with a stop having the features of the preamble of claim 1.

Der Behälter enthält also vier einen rechteckigen Querschnitt bildende Wände, so dass der Behälter zusammen mit seinem Boden angenähert die Form eines Quaders aufweist. Dadurch wird bei der Lagerung der zur Verfügung stehende Platz vollständig ausgenutzt. Der Behälter enthält an seinem Boden eine Standeinrichtung, so dass er auch in gefüllten Zustand auf eine ebene Fläche aufgesetzt werden kann, wo er stehen bleibt und zur Abgabe der Flüssigkeit dienen kann. Wenn ein Halter eine solche ebene Standfläche aufweist, kann der Behälter in einen solchen Halter eingesetzt werden. Zur Verbesserung der Anbringung an einem Halter weist der Behälter an seiner Rückwand eine speziell ausgeformte Ausbildung auf, die die Verbindung mit einem Halter an der Rückseite des Behälters ermöglicht. Diese Ausbildung kann zur Verbesserung der Festigkeit und Haltbarkeit über praktisch die gesamte Höhe des Behälters vorhanden sein. Diese Verbindungsausformung an der Rückseite des Behälters ist durch einen Vorsprung mit einer glatten Frontfläche verwirklicht. Die glatte und ebene Frontfläche soll dazu dienen, dass der Vorsprung nur geringfügig über die Rückseite des Behälters vorspringt, so dass auch der Halter selbst nur eine geringe Tiefe aufzuweisen braucht. Die Verbindungsausbildung weist einen Hinterschnitt auf oder bildet einen Hinterschnitt. Dieser Hinterschnitt kann zur Verriegelung des Behälters gegenüber dem Halter dienen. Diese Verriegelung bedeutet, dass der Halter den Behälter richtig festhält, und dass kein Werkzeug erforderlich ist, um die beiden Teile miteinander zu verbinden. Die Verbindungsausbildung an der Rückseite des Behälters weist eine V-Form mit der Spitze nach unten auf. Dadurch kann der Behälter von oben eingesetzt werden, wobei er sich wegen der V-Form selbst zentriert.The container thus contains four walls forming a rectangular cross-section, so that the container, together with its bottom, has approximately the shape of a cuboid. As a result, the available space is fully utilized during storage. The container contains at its bottom a standing device, so that it can be placed in the filled state on a flat surface, where it stops and can serve to deliver the liquid. If a holder has such a flat base, the container can be inserted into such a holder. To improve the attachment to a holder, the container on its rear wall on a specially shaped training that allows connection to a holder on the back of the container. This design may be present to improve strength and durability over virtually the entire height of the container. This Verbindungsausformung at the back of the container is realized by a projection with a smooth front surface. The smooth and flat front surface is to serve that the projection only slightly protrudes over the back of the container, so that even the holder itself need only have a small depth. The connection training has an undercut or forms an undercut. This undercut can serve to lock the container relative to the holder. This lock means that the holder holds the container properly and that no tools are needed to connect the two parts together. The connection formation at the back of the container has a V-shape with the tip down. This allows the container to be inserted from above, centering itself on the V-shape.

Der in den Figuren 1 bis 5 dargestellte Behälter besteht aus Kunststoff und weist angenähert die Form eines Quaders auf, mit einer ebenen Vorderseite 1, einer Rückseite 2, zwei Seitenwänden 3, einem Boden 4 und einer Oberseite 5, in der eine Öffnung angeordnet ist, die mithilfe eines Deckels 6 verschlossen ist.The in the FIGS. 1 to 5 shown container is made of plastic and has approximately the shape of a cuboid, with a flat front 1, a back 2, two side walls 3, a bottom 4 and a top 5, in which an opening is arranged, which is closed by means of a cover 6 ,

Die Vorderseite 1, siehe auch Figur 2, ist glattflächig ausgebildet, so dass man hier ein Etikett aufkleben kann, das dann vom Benutzer gelesen werden kann und das Aufschluss über den Inhalt des Behälters geben kann. Da der Behälter aus einem durchscheinenden bis durchsichtigen Kunststoff besteht, kann man an dieser Stelle auch erkennen, wie hoch der Flüssigkeitsspiegel in dem Behälter steht.The front 1, see also FIG. 2 , is formed smooth surface, so that you can stick a label here, which can then be read by the user and can provide information about the contents of the container. Since the container consists of a translucent to transparent plastic, it can also be seen at this point how high the liquid level is in the container.

Die beiden Seitenwände 3 sind, siehe Figur 1, mit horizontalen verlaufenden Rippen 7 versehen, die flach und abgerundet verlaufen und die eine gewisse Verstärkung der Stabilität des Behälters bewirken. Zusätzlich erleichtern sie das Anfassen, wenn man den Behälter hochheben will.The two side walls 3 are, see FIG. 1 , Provided with horizontal extending ribs 7, which extend flat and rounded and which cause a certain increase in the stability of the container. In addition, they make it easier to touch when you want to lift the container.

Auf der Unterseite des Behälters, siehe auch Figur 4, sind ebenfalls Rippen 8 ausgeformt, die in der Untenansicht der Figur vier U-förmig ausgebildet sind und zwischen sich einen Zwischenraum 9 freilassen. Diese Rippen 8 liegen mit ihren Kanten in einer Ebene, die damit eine Standfläche für den Behälter bildet. Der zwischen den Rippen 8 liegende Teil des Bodens 4 kann sich daher in gewissem Ausmaß verformen, ohne dass dadurch die Standfestigkeit des Behälters leidet. Die Höhe dieser Rippen 8 ist nur klein, so dass kein Raum verschwendet wird, der nicht zum Unterbringen der Flüssigkeit dient.On the bottom of the container, see also FIG. 4 , Ribs 8 are also formed, which are formed in the bottom view of the figure four U-shaped and leave a gap 9 between them. These ribs 8 lie with their edges in a plane which thus forms a footprint for the container. The lying between the ribs 8 Part of the bottom 4 can therefore deform to some extent, without the stability of the container suffers. The height of these ribs 8 is only small, so that no space is wasted, which does not serve to accommodate the liquid.

An der Rückseite 2 ist ein flacher Vorsprung 10 ausgebildet, bei dem es sich einfach um eine Versetzung der Rückwand 2 des Behälters in einem bestimmten Bereich und um einen bestimmten Betrag handelt. Dieser Vorsprung weist also eine ebenfalls flache glattflächige Rückseite auf, die gegenüber der Rückseite 2 des Behälters nur geringfügig versetzt ist. Der Rand 11 des Vorsprungs verläuft im oberen Bereich, siehe Figur 5, längs eines Halbkreises, an den sich in Richtung nach unten zwei Kanten 12 anschließen, die V-förmig mit der Spitze nach unten ausgebildet sind. Das untere Ende 13 ist wieder abgerundet. Längs der beiden V-förmig angeordneten Kanten 12 des Vorsprungs 10 ist ein Hinterschnitt 14 gebildet, siehe Figur 3. Dies bedeutet, dass der Winkel zwischen der Rückseite 2 außerhalb des Vorsprungs 10 und den seitlich gerichteten Flächen eine Nut bildet, die einen Winkel von weniger als 90° aufweist.On the back 2 a flat projection 10 is formed, which is simply a displacement of the rear wall 2 of the container in a certain range and by a certain amount. Thus, this projection has a likewise flat smooth-surfaced rear side, which is offset only slightly with respect to the rear side 2 of the container. The edge 11 of the projection extends in the upper area, see FIG. 5 Along a semicircle, in the direction of downward two edges 12 follow, which are V-shaped with the tip down. The lower end 13 is rounded again. Along the two V-shaped edges 12 of the projection 10, an undercut 14 is formed, see FIG. 3 , This means that the angle between the back 2 outside the projection 10 and the laterally directed surfaces forms a groove which has an angle of less than 90 °.

Der Behälter, wie er in den Figuren dargestellt ist, kann zum Transport von Flüssigkeiten in der Weise benutzt werden, dass sich viele Behälter sehr eng aneinander heran rücken lassen, wobei wegen der Quaderform praktisch kein Raum verschenkt wird. Der Behälter ist andererseits so gestaltet, dass er wegen seiner Standfläche durch die Rippen 8 auf einem ebenen Untergrund stehen bleibt. Der Behälter kann sowohl zum Transport als auch zur Bereitstellung der Flüssigkeit dienen.The container, as shown in the figures, can be used to transport liquids in such a way that many containers can move very close to each other, with virtually no space is given away because of the cuboid shape. On the other hand, the container is designed so that it stops on a flat surface due to its footprint through the ribs 8. The container can serve both for transport and for providing the liquid.

Mithilfe des hinterschnittenen Vorsprungs 10 lässt sich der Behälter in einen Halter einsetzen, der eine dem hinterschnittenen Vorsprung 10 entsprechende Gegenform aufweist. Ein solcher Halter wird jetzt unter Bezugnahme auf die Figuren 6 bis 10 beschrieben.By means of the undercut projection 10, the container can be inserted into a holder which has a counter-shape corresponding to the undercut projection 10. Such a holder will now be described with reference to FIGS FIGS. 6 to 10 described.

Der in den Figuren 6 bis 10 dargestellte Halter enthält ein Plattenelement 20, das V-förmig ausgebildet ist. An seinem breiteren Ende, das das obere Ende ist, sind zwei Löcher 21 für das Durchstecken von Schrauben ausgebildet. Am gegenüberliegenden unteren Ende 22 ist ebenfalls ein solches Loch 21 vorhanden.The in the FIGS. 6 to 10 shown holder includes a plate member 20 which is V-shaped. At its wider end, which is the upper end, two holes 21 are formed for the passage of screws. At the opposite lower end 22, such a hole 21 is also present.

Außerhalb der schräg verlaufenden Kanten 23 der Platte 20 sind zwei Flügel 24 mit jeweils einem Langloch 25 ausgebildet. Die Längserstreckung des Langlochs 25 verläuft dabei in Längsrichtung des Plattenelements 20.Outside the oblique edges 23 of the plate 20, two wings 24 are each formed with a slot 25. The longitudinal extent of the elongated hole 25 extends in the longitudinal direction of the plate member 20th

An der Rückseite des Plattenelements 20 sind im oberen Bereich hinter den Löchern 21 Abstandselemente 26 ausgebildet, siehe Figur 9, ebenso am unteren Ende hinter dem Loch 21 am unteren Ende 22 des Plattenelements.At the back of the plate member 20 21 spacer elements 26 are formed in the upper region behind the holes, see FIG. 9 , also at the lower end behind the hole 21 at the lower end 22 of the plate member.

Unterhalb der beiden Löcher 21 am oberen Ende des Plattenelements ragt ein im Querschnitt hakenförmiges Winkelelement 27 nach unten, das heißt parallel zu der Rückseite des Plattenelements 20. Mit diesem Hakenelement 27 kann das Plattenelement beispielsweise in eine Öffnung eingehängt werden.Below the two holes 21 at the upper end of the plate member protrudes a cross-sectional hook-shaped angle member 27 down, that is parallel to the back of the plate member 20. With this hook member 27, the plate member can be hung, for example, in an opening.

Die beiden schräg verlaufenden Begrenzungen 23 des Plattenelements 20 weisen jeweils eine nach vorne gerichtete Leiste 28 auf, siehe auch Figur 6. Diese etwa senkrecht zu der Fläche des Plattenelements 20 verlaufenden Leisten 28 weisen auf den einander zugewandten Innenseiten federnde Zungen 29 auf, die so ausgebildet sind, dass sie an der Vorderkante 30 der Leisten 28 weiter aufeinander zu vorspringen als in dem näher an dem Plattenelement 20 positionierten Bereich. Dort sind sie nicht mit dem Plattenelement verbunden, so dass sie dort federn können.The two obliquely extending boundaries 23 of the plate member 20 each have a forwardly directed bar 28, see also FIG. 6 , These approximately perpendicular to the surface of the plate member 20 extending strips 28 have on the mutually facing inner sides resilient tongues 29 which are formed so that they project on the leading edge 30 of the strips 28 on each other more than in the closer to the plate member 20 positioned Area. There they are not connected to the plate element, so that they can spring there.

Diese federnden Zungen 29 bilden dadurch einen in gewissem Ausmaß federnden Hinterschnitt der Leisten 28 an deren Innenseite.This resilient tongues 29 thereby form a resilient to some extent undercut of the strips 28 on the inside.

Der Winkel zwischen den beiden Leisten 28 entspricht dem Winkel zwischen den V-förmig verlaufenden Kanten 12 des Vorsprungs 10 des Behälters.The angle between the two strips 28 corresponds to the angle between the V-shaped edges 12 of the projection 10 of the container.

Der Halter lässt sich mit Schrauben an einer Wand oder einer Stütze oder einer Strebe festschrauben. Dann kann der Behälter in den Halter in der Weise eingesetzt werden, dass der Hinterschnitt 14 des Vorsprungs 10 des Behälters mit dem durch die federnden Zungen 29 gebildeten Hinterschnitt des Halters zusammen wirkt. Der Behälter ist damit sicher an dem Halter angebracht. Er kann nach oben entnommen werden, hängt aber fest und sicher in dem Halter. Die federnden Zungen 29 und damit die Leisten 28 wirken mit dem Vorsprung 10 zusammen, der sich über fast die gesamte Höhe des Behälters erstreckt. Daher ist auch trotz eines schweren Inhalts eine sichere Befestigung gegeben.The holder can be screwed with screws to a wall or a support or a strut. Then, the container can be inserted into the holder in such a way that the undercut 14 of the projection 10 of the container with the formed by the resilient tongues 29 undercut of the holder cooperates. The container is thus securely attached to the holder. It can be removed upwards, but hangs firmly and securely in the holder. The resilient tongues 29 and thus the strips 28 cooperate with the projection 10 which extends over almost the entire height of the container. Therefore, despite a heavy content, a secure attachment is given.
