Definitions
- the invention relates to a frame made of plastic with a base body for attachment in the edge region of an opening of a container, in particular a box for storing paints, varnishes or the like.
- Such a framework is out of the DE 10 2007 007 171 A1 known.
- the encircling frame protrudes inwards beyond the side wall of the container, for example a paint can, and can be snapped onto the edge region of the container opening.
- the frame is intended to prevent the liquid filling material in the container from readily escaping through the container opening during the movement of the container. Also, the frame allows a simple stripping of paint or paint from a tool, such as a brush. To close the container, a lid on the inside of the frame can be snapped or clamped.
- the invention has for its object to provide a frame of the type mentioned in such a way that provided with this frame container is easier and thus cheaper to manufacture.
- a frame in which a strap is connected via film hinges to the base body.
- the production of such a frame with integrated bracket is particularly easy and can be produced in injection molding with a shot.
- the attachment of the bracket to the frame has the advantage that the container can be filled or labeled in any orientation.
- a connection of the bracket on the side wall, as for example in the aforementioned DE 10 2007 007 171 A1 is described in this regard is unfavorable, since this type of connection makes an orientation of the container during labeling mandatory.
- DE 2050075 discloses a frame according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the profiled body of the frame for example, have a (circumferential) sink on which the film hinges are mounted to connect the bracket, the connection of the film hinges can extend longitudinally and / or transversely to the sink.
- the bow can be e.g. when stacking several containers on each other or when welding the frame on a side wall of the container in the sink dive.
- the bracket is protected in the sink against possible damage from the outside.
- the bracket may alternatively also be formed by an edge region of a circumferential ridge-shaped edge of the main body, which is formed by a cutout running along the circumferential direction of the edge, e.g. a gap is separated from the body.
- the web-shaped peripheral edge may be e.g. be attached to the inside or the outside of the frame.
- a ridge-shaped outer edge may e.g. when stacking a plurality of containers on each other enclose the bottom portion of a resting on the frame container and serve as a lateral fixation of the container during stacking.
- the bracket may be in its basic position, ie in that position, which occupies the bracket without a deflection by an operator, be aligned at a non-zero angle of attack to the body, so that the operator can grasp the bracket more easily.
- it is advantageous to align the bracket in its basic position parallel to the base body, as can be easily detected in such a position of the bracket even in a horizontal position.
- the film hinges are mounted on the outer edge of the base body and the bracket is above the body over to the outside.
- the bracket may be aligned in its normal position parallel to the plane of the annular body.
- this type of connection it is of course also possible with this type of connection to align the bracket in its normal position at an angle to the body.
- the choice of an angle of attack in this angular range allows easy gripping of the bracket by an operator.
- the angle of attack of the bracket can be specified here via a suitable shaping of the film hinges or the connection of the bracket to the film hinges.
- bracket and the base body may also consist of different plastic materials.
- the bracket and the base body may have different properties, for example, in terms of their color, strength, etc. It should be understood that care should be taken to choose two compatible materials of carbon, that is, two materials that adhere to each other a flow front in the film hinges can connect to each other.
- the frame may have a tamper-evident, which is broken when moving the bracket from its normal position.
- the tamper-evident can be formed in particular by a bridge between the bracket and the base body. It is understood that it is beneficial for the tamper-evident, if the distance between bracket and body in the basic position of the bracket is small, i.
- the tamper-evident device can be mounted in a particularly simple manner, in particular in cases where the angle of attack is small. The latter is e.g. the case when the bracket is aligned parallel to the plane of the body.
- the frame described above may be made by injection molding, wherein the entire frame can be made by using a single shot using only one plastic material.
- the manufacture of the plastic frame also makes it possible to construct the bracket with a desired geometry or shape, e.g. with a profiling, equip.
- transverse ribs for reinforcement on the lower and / or upper side of the frame.
- transverse ribs for reinforcement on the lower and / or upper side of the frame.
- a container in particular a can for storing paints, inks or the like, having a bottom, a circumferential side wall and a bottom opening opposite to the bottom, which has a frame which is formed as described above.
- the frame is mounted in the region of the opening along the container lining on the side wall.
- the frame can be connected to the peripheral side wall of the container in different ways.
- an irreversible, integral connection e.g. by welding, gluing or the like is also a positive and / or positive connection, e.g. by bouncing (frictional), screwing, latching or snapping the frame on the side wall possible.
- a cohesive connection of the frame with the side wall, in particular by welding, has proved to be particularly favorable.
- the beading edge in the region of the bottom and / or the beaded edge in the region of the opening can be web-shaped. This is convenient in order to stack the containers better each other.
- the inside of the web-shaped beaded edge in the region of the opening project further outwardly than the outside of the flanged edge in the region of the bottom (or vice versa) to achieve a lateral fixation of several stacked container.
- the crimping edge may have knobs in the region of the opening and / or the crimping edge in the region of the bottom. If adjacently arranged containers are brought into abutment with one another, the nubs of the containers engage in one another and fix their relative position to one another. By the nubs thus a lateral securing of several containers can be carried out relative to each other.
- the design of the studs is on the DE 20 2009 001 356 U1 referred to the applicant.
- the container can, as usual with cans, have a side wall with a cylindrical basic shape, ie the cross-sectional area of the container remains constant over its entire height. This is favorable inter alia for the labeling of the container. It is understood that containers having a cylindrical basic shape can have different cross-sectional geometries. In addition to a circle or an oval as a cross-sectional shape may also polygonal, in particular square or rectangular cross-sectional shapes be used. Also, if necessary, the container may have one of a cylindrical basic shape deviating, for example conical basic shape.
- the container may in particular also have a lid for closing the opening, which has a side edge for sealing connection with an inner edge of the frame.
- the lid can be attached to the frame, for example by latching or by bouncing.
- the inner edge of the frame may be formed by an axial web which seals with the outside of the side edge of the lid.
- the cover may also have a projecting beyond the inner edge of the frame projection on which preferably a stiffening, in particular in the form of transverse ribs is provided.
- a stiffening in particular in the form of transverse ribs
- a projection must be provided for lifting the lid.
- an opening aid for example in the form of a groove, may be provided for engagement with a tool on the cover and / or on the frame.
- the lid and / or the frame can possibly also be provided with a tamper-evident closure, which makes it possible to detect an opened and subsequently resealed container.
- the lid does not necessarily have to be made of a plastic material and, for example, also made of sheet metal, glass, etc. can be made.
- the container or parts of the container may e.g. be made of polyethylene or polypropylene. It is understood that different parts of the container may consist of different plastic materials. Thus, e.g. the frame or the lid are made of a different plastic than the main body (side wall and bottom) of the container.
- the container described herein is manufactured by injection molding. It will be understood, however, that particularly for small sized containers, individual parts of the container, e.g. the basic body (side wall and bottom) also in other ways, e.g. by deep drawing, can be produced.
- FIGS. 1a , B show a frame 1 , which has an annular, profiled base body 2 , to which a bracket 3 is connected via two film hinges 4a, 4b .
- the film hinges 4a, 4b are in this case mounted in a depression 5 , so that the bracket 3 can dip into the sink 5 and is protected in this way from damage.
- connection of the bracket 3 to the film hinges 4a, 4b designed so that the bracket 3 is aligned in its normal position at an angle ⁇ of about 5 ° to the plane formed by the base body 2.
- the orientation of the bracket 3 at an angle allows easy gripping of the bracket by an operator. From the basic position of the bracket can be spent in a substantially vertical position, as in Fig. 1b indicated by dashed lines.
- the bracket 3 can be aligned in its basic position at a different angle ⁇ with respect to the base body 2, wherein in particular angle of attack ⁇ between about 5 ° and about 40 ° have proven to be particularly favorable.

- the bracket 3 is in this case formed by an edge region of the web-shaped edge 6, which is separated from the base body 2 by a circumferential, semicircular cutout (slot) 7 .
- the film hinges 4a, 4b are in this case attached to the transition between the bracket 3 forming the edge region and the part of the web-shaped edge 6, which is not provided with a cutout.
- the edge region 3 forming the bracket is aligned parallel to the plane of the main body 2. This makes it possible to provide a short web 8 between the edge region 3 and the main body 2, which serves as a predetermined breaking point and forms a tamper-evident. If the edge region 3, which is easily accessible from the outside, is grasped by an operator and lifted upwards, the web 8 breaks and makes it possible to detect the lifting of the bow 3.
- b Frame 1 shown by suitable design of the film hinges 4a, 4b set a non-zero angle of attack of the edge portion 3.
- the bracket can be attached in an analogous manner to a web-shaped, further inner edge of the frame 1.
- FIGS. 5a , B is an embodiment of the frame 1 is shown, in which the bracket 3 projects beyond the circumference of the annular base body 2.
- the film hinges 4a, 4b are mounted in this case on the outer circumference of the base body 2 and are above the base body 2 via, to connect the bracket 3 spaced from the base body 2 can.
- the bracket 3 as well as in the FIGS. 4a, b shown embodiment aligned parallel to the plane of the base body 2 and arranged between the base body 2 and 3 bracket web 8 serves as tamper evidence.
- FIGS. 5a, b embodiment shown by suitable shaping of the film hinges 4a, 4b set a non-zero angle of attack of the bracket 3,

- the upper bead 14a is formed on the outside of the frame 1.
- the frame 1 is connected to the side wall 12 in the present example by welding, but it is understood that the connection between the frame 1 and the side wall 12 can be made in other ways, for example via a positive connection and / or a frictional connection, ie
- the frame 1 can in particular also be attached to the container 10 via a detachable (snap-fit or latching) connection.
- the upper and the lower bead 14a, 14b are web-shaped, wherein the inside of the web-shaped upper flange 14a protrudes further outwardly than the outside of the web-shaped lower flange 14b.
- the web-shaped lower flange 14b' of the further container 10 ' When stacking a further container 10 ' on the container 10, the web-shaped lower flange 14b' of the further container 10 'serves as a standing edge and rests on a circumferential radial bearing surface 16 of the frame 1 of the lower container 10.
- the upper web-shaped beaded edge 14a of the container 10 in this case encloses the lower web-shaped beaded edge 14b of the further container 10 'with little play, so that the two containers 10, 10' are fixed in their relative position to one another during stacking.
- nubs can be provided on the beaded edges 14a, 14b, which project beyond the respective beaded edge 14a, 14b to the outside. If containers arranged adjacent to one another are brought into contact with one another, the knobs on the containers engage one another and fix their relative position. By the nubs thus a lateral securing of several juxtaposed containers can be carried out relative to each other to fix them during transport suitable, as in the DE 20 2009 001 356 U1 the applicant is shown in detail.
- the bracket 3 can be spent from the basic position down in a substantially horizontal position parallel to the plane of the annular frame 1. When stacking the bracket 3 is in this case held down by an annular, raised portion of the bottom 11 'of the other container 10'. Also, the bracket 3 can be moved over the horizontal position further down to the bracket 3 in the between the support surface 8 and a support surface 17 formed sink 5 of the frame 1 record.
- the frame 1 For attachment of the lid 13, the frame 1 has an axially extending inner web 18 which can be brought into sealing contact with a (not shown) side wall of the lid 13, so that the lid 13 closes the opening 15 sealingly.
- the lid 13 has at its outer edge a in Fig. 6a shown projection 19 , which engages over the axial web 18 of the frame 1 and the cover 13 via a press fit to the frame 1, fixed.
- the projection 19 formed on the cover 13 may have a stiffening, for example in the form of transverse ribs. This is favorable if, for releasing the lid 13, a tool, for example a screwdriver, is introduced into the intermediate space formed between the projection 19 of the lid 13 and the supporting surface 17 of the frame 1 in order to lift the lid 13 from the frame 1.
- the frame with integrated bracket does not necessarily have to be designed annular. Rather, the frame may have a shape adapted to the respective container geometry and e.g. be designed oval or polygonal. Also, if necessary, additional mold elements, for example in the form of reinforcing ribs, may be provided on the frame.
- the frame with integrated bracket can also be attached to containers that have no cylindrical, over the height of the container constant cross-section, for example on conical containers. In any case, the manufacturing costs for the container can be reduced by the integration of the bracket in the frame.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Rahmen aus Kunststoff mit einem Grundkörper zur Anbringung im Randbereich einer Öffnung eines Behälters, insbesondere einer Dose zur Aufbewahrung von Farben, Lacken oder dergleichen.The invention relates to a frame made of plastic with a base body for attachment in the edge region of an opening of a container, in particular a box for storing paints, varnishes or the like.
Ein solcher Rahmen ist aus der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Rahmen der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, dass ein mit diesem Rahmen versehener Behälter einfacher und damit kostengünstiger herzustellen ist.The invention has for its object to provide a frame of the type mentioned in such a way that provided with this frame container is easier and thus cheaper to manufacture.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch einen Rahmen, bei dem ein Bügel über Filmscharniere an den Grundkörper angebunden ist. Die Herstellung eines solchen Rahmens mit integriertem Bügel ist besonders einfach möglich und kann beim Spritzgießen mit einem Schuss hergestellt werden. Auch hat die Anbringung des Bügels an dem Rahmen den Vorteil, dass der Behälter in beliebiger Orientierung befüllt bzw. etikettiert werden kann. Eine Anbindung des Bügels an der Seitenwand, wie sie z.B. in der eingangs genannten
Gemäß der Erfindung bestehen zwei Möglichkeiten für die Anbindung des Bügels an dem in der Regel profilierten Rahmen. So kann der profilierte Grundkörper des Rahmens beispielsweise eine (umlaufende) Senke aufweisen, an der die Filmscharniere zur Anbindung des Bügels angebracht sind, wobei die Anbindung der Filmscharniere längs und/oder quer zur Senke verlaufen kann. Durch das Vorsehen der Filmscharniere in der Senke kann der Bügel z.B. beim Stapeln mehrerer Behälter aufeinander oder beim Verschweißen des Rahmens an einer Seitenwand des Behälters in die Senke abtauchen. Auch ist der Bügel in der Senke gegen mögliche Beschädigungen von außen geschützt.According to the invention, there are two possibilities for the connection of the bracket to the usually profiled frame. Thus, the profiled body of the frame, for example, have a (circumferential) sink on which the film hinges are mounted to connect the bracket, the connection of the film hinges can extend longitudinally and / or transversely to the sink. By providing the film hinges in the sink, the bow can be e.g. when stacking several containers on each other or when welding the frame on a side wall of the container in the sink dive. Also, the bracket is protected in the sink against possible damage from the outside.
Der Bügel kann alternativ auch durch einen Randbereich eines umlaufenden, stegförmigen Randes des Grundkörpers gebildet sein, der durch eine entlang der Umfangsrichtung des Randes verlaufende Freisparung, z.B. einen Spalt, vom Grundkörper getrennt ist. Der stegförmige, umlaufende Rand kann z.B. an der Innen- oder der Außenseite des Rahmens angebracht sein. Ein stegförmiger Außenrand kann z.B. beim Stapeln mehrerer Behälter aufeinander den Bodenbereich eines auf dem Rahmen aufliegenden Behälters umschließen und so einer seitlichen Fixierung der Behälter beim Stapeln dienen.The bracket may alternatively also be formed by an edge region of a circumferential ridge-shaped edge of the main body, which is formed by a cutout running along the circumferential direction of the edge, e.g. a gap is separated from the body. The web-shaped peripheral edge may be e.g. be attached to the inside or the outside of the frame. A ridge-shaped outer edge may e.g. when stacking a plurality of containers on each other enclose the bottom portion of a resting on the frame container and serve as a lateral fixation of the container during stacking.
Der Bügel kann in seiner Grundstellung, d.h. in derjenigen Stellung, die der Bügel ohne eine Auslenkung durch einen Bediener einnimmt, unter einem von Null verschiedenen Anstellwinkel zum Grundkörper ausgerichtet sein, damit der Bediener den Bügel leichter greifen kann. Bei der Anbringung des Bügels am Außenrand des Rahmens ist es aber günstig, den Bügel in seiner Grundstellung parallel zum Grundkörper auszurichten, da bei solchen Anbringungen der Bügel auch in einer horizontalen Grundstellung problemlos erfasst werden kann.The bracket may be in its basic position, ie in that position, which occupies the bracket without a deflection by an operator, be aligned at a non-zero angle of attack to the body, so that the operator can grasp the bracket more easily. When attaching the bracket on the outer edge of the frame, it is advantageous to align the bracket in its basic position parallel to the base body, as can be easily detected in such a position of the bracket even in a horizontal position.
In einer Ausgestaltung, die kein Teil der Erfindung ist, sind die Filmscharniere am Außenrand des Grundkörpers angebracht und der Bügel steht über den Grundkörper nach außen über. Auch in diesem Fall kann der Bügel in seiner Grundstellung parallel zur Ebene des ringförmigen Grundkörpers ausgerichtet sein. Es ist aber selbstverständlich auch bei dieser Art der Anbindung möglich, den Bügel in seiner Grundstellung unter einem Anstellwinkel zum Grundkörper auszurichten.In one embodiment, which is not part of the invention, the film hinges are mounted on the outer edge of the base body and the bracket is above the body over to the outside. Also in this case, the bracket may be aligned in its normal position parallel to the plane of the annular body. However, it is of course also possible with this type of connection to align the bracket in its normal position at an angle to the body.
Für den Anstellwinkel des Bügels zum Grundkörper haben sich Winkelwerte zwischen 5° und 40°, bevorzugt zwischen 10° und 30° als günstig erwiesen. Die Wahl eines Anstellwinkels in diesem Winkelbereich ermöglicht ein leichtes Greifen des Bügels durch einen Bediener. Der Anstellwinkel des Bügels kann hierbei über eine geeignete Formgebung der Filmscharniere bzw. der Anbindung des Bügels an den Filmscharnieren vorgegeben werden.Angle values between 5 ° and 40 °, preferably between 10 ° and 30 °, have proved favorable for the angle of attack of the bow to the base body. The choice of an angle of attack in this angular range allows easy gripping of the bracket by an operator. The angle of attack of the bracket can be specified here via a suitable shaping of the film hinges or the connection of the bracket to the film hinges.
Insbesondere bei Verwendung eines Zwei-Komponenten-Spritzgießverfahrens bei der Herstellung des Rahmens können der Bügel und der Grundkörper auch aus unterschiedlichen Kunststoffmaterialien bestehen. In diesem Fall können der Bügel und der Grundkörper unterschiedliche Eigenschaften z.B. in Bezug auf ihre Farbe, Festigkeit, etc. aufweisen. Es versteht sich, dass darauf geachtet werden sollte, dass zwei kompatible Ktrnststoff-Materialien gewählt werden, d.h. zwei Materialien, die sich an einer Fließfront im Bereich der Filmscharniere miteinander verbinden können.In particular, when using a two-component injection molding in the production of the frame of the bracket and the base body may also consist of different plastic materials. In this case, the bracket and the base body may have different properties, for example, in terms of their color, strength, etc. It should be understood that care should be taken to choose two compatible materials of carbon, that is, two materials that adhere to each other a flow front in the film hinges can connect to each other.
Auch kann der Rahmen eine Originalitätssicherung aufweisen, die beim Bewegen des Bügels aus seiner Grundstellung aufgebrochen wird. Die Originalitätssicherung kann insbesondere durch einen Steg zwischen Bügel und Grundkörper gebildet sein. Es versteht sich, dass es für die Originalitätssicherung günstig ist, wenn der Abstand zwischen Bügel und Grundkörper in der Grundstellung des Bügels klein ist, d.h. die Originalitätssicherung kann insbesondere in den Fällen auf besonders einfache Weise angebracht werden, in denen der Anstellwinkel klein ist. Letzteres ist z.B. der Fall, wenn der Bügel parallel zur Ebene des Grundkörpers ausgerichtet ist.Also, the frame may have a tamper-evident, which is broken when moving the bracket from its normal position. The tamper-evident can be formed in particular by a bridge between the bracket and the base body. It is understood that it is beneficial for the tamper-evident, if the distance between bracket and body in the basic position of the bracket is small, i. The tamper-evident device can be mounted in a particularly simple manner, in particular in cases where the angle of attack is small. The latter is e.g. the case when the bracket is aligned parallel to the plane of the body.
Der oben beschriebene Rahmen kann insbesondere durch Spritzgießen hergestellt sein, wobei der gesamte Rahmen bei Verwendung nur eines Kunststoffmaterials durch einen einzigen Schuss hergestellt werden kann. Die Herstellung des Rahmens aus Kunststoff erlaubt es insbesondere auch, den Bügel mit einer gewünschten Geometrie oder Formgebung, z.B. mit einer Profilierung, auszustatten.In particular, the frame described above may be made by injection molding, wherein the entire frame can be made by using a single shot using only one plastic material. In particular, the manufacture of the plastic frame also makes it possible to construct the bracket with a desired geometry or shape, e.g. with a profiling, equip.
An dem Rahmenprofil können zusätzlich oder alternativ zu dem Bügel weitere Formelemente ausgebildet werden, beispielsweise Querrippen zur Verstärkung an der Unter- und/oder an der Oberseite des Rahmens. Allerdings hat sich gezeigt, dass für die Aufbewahrung von Lacken oder Farben die Verwendung einer rippenlosen Rahmenkontur in der Regel günstiger ist, da sich z.B. bei der Anbringung von Querrippen entlang der Oberseite des Rahmens Farbe oder Lack in den Zwischenräumen zwischen den Rippen sammeln und nur schwer wieder entfernt werden kann.On the frame profile, in addition to or as an alternative to the bracket, further shaped elements can be formed, for example transverse ribs for reinforcement on the lower and / or upper side of the frame. However, it has been shown that for the storage of paints or colors, the use of a ribless frame contour is usually cheaper because, for example, in the attachment of transverse ribs along the top of the frame paint or paint collect in the spaces between the ribs and difficult can be removed again.
Ein weiterer Aspekt der Erfindung betrifft einen Behälter, insbesondere eine Dose zur Aufbewahrung von Lacken, Farben oder dergleichen, mit einem Boden, einer umlaufenden Seitenwand und einer dem Boden gegenüberliegenden Öffnung, die einen Rahmen aufweist, der wie oben beschrieben ausgebildet ist. Der Rahmen ist im Bereich der Öffnung entlang des Behälterurnfangs an der Seitenwand angebracht. Durch die Integration des Bügels in den Rahmen kann auf die Anbringung des Bügels an der umlaufenden Seitenwand des Behälters verzichtet werden. Dies ist insbesondere bei Behältern mit rundem Querschnitt günstig, da der runde Behälter in diesem Fall bei der Etikettierung nicht orientiert werden muss.Another aspect of the invention relates to a container, in particular a can for storing paints, inks or the like, having a bottom, a circumferential side wall and a bottom opening opposite to the bottom, which has a frame which is formed as described above. The frame is mounted in the region of the opening along the container lining on the side wall. By integrating the bracket in the frame can be dispensed with the attachment of the bracket to the peripheral side wall of the container. This is particularly favorable for containers with a round cross section, since the round container in this case does not have to be oriented in the labeling.
Der Rahmen kann mit der umlaufenden Seitenwand des Behälters auf unterschiedliche Weise verbunden werden. Neben einer irreversiblen, stoffschlüssigen Verbindung, z.B. durch Verschweißen, Verkleben oder dergleichen ist auch eine kraft- und/oder formschlüssige Verbindung z.B. durch Aufprellen (Reibschluss), Verschrauben, Verrasten oder Aufschnappen des Rahmens an der Seitenwand möglich. Eine stoffschlüssige Verbindung des Rahmens mit der Seitenwand, insbesondere durch Schweißen, hat sich als besonders günstig erwiesen.The frame can be connected to the peripheral side wall of the container in different ways. In addition to an irreversible, integral connection, e.g. by welding, gluing or the like is also a positive and / or positive connection, e.g. by bouncing (frictional), screwing, latching or snapping the frame on the side wall possible. A cohesive connection of the frame with the side wall, in particular by welding, has proved to be particularly favorable.
Um eine Befüllung des Behälters auf konventionellen, für die Befüllung von Blech-Behältern ausgelegten Abfüll- bzw. Etikettieranlagen zu ermöglichen, kann im Bereich des Bodens und am Außenrand des Rahmens jeweils ein umlaufender Bördelrand gebildet sein, der über die Seitenwand nach außen übersteht. Während bei Blechbehältern Bördelränder eine notwendige Folge des Herstellungsprozesses sind, um die Einzelteile des Behälters (Boden, Seitenwand, ringförmiger Rahmen) miteinander zu verbinden, werden bei Kunststoff-Behältern herstellungsbedingt keine Bördelränder benötigt. Die Bördelränder erlauben es aber, die Rüstzeiten und Rüstkosten für das Umrüsten einer Abfüllanlage von Blechbehältern auf Kunststoffbehälter (und umgekehrt) zu minimieren.In order to allow a filling of the container on conventional, designed for the filling of sheet metal containers filling and labeling, can each be formed in the region of the bottom and the outer edge of the frame, a circumferential bead, which projects beyond the side wall to the outside. While in metal containers Bördelränder are a necessary consequence of the manufacturing process to connect the items of the container (bottom, side wall, ring-shaped frame) with each other, no Bördelränder are required for plastic containers production reasons. The Bördelränder but allow to minimize the set-up times and setup costs for the conversion of a filling system of sheet metal containers on plastic containers (and vice versa).
Der Bördelrand im Bereich des Bodens und/oder der Bördelrand im Bereich der Öffnung können stegförmig ausgebildet sein. Dies ist günstig, um die Behälter besser aufeinander stapeln zu können. Insbesondere kann hierbei die Innenseite des stegförmigen Bördelrands im Bereich der Öffnung weiter nach außen vorstehen als die Außenseite des Bördelrands im Bereich des Bodens (oder umgekehrt) um eine seitliche Fixierung mehrerer aufeinander gestapelter Behälter zu erreichen.The beading edge in the region of the bottom and / or the beaded edge in the region of the opening can be web-shaped. This is convenient in order to stack the containers better each other. In particular, in this case, the inside of the web-shaped beaded edge in the region of the opening project further outwardly than the outside of the flanged edge in the region of the bottom (or vice versa) to achieve a lateral fixation of several stacked container.
Zur Transportsicherung kann der Bördelrand im Bereich der Öffnung und/oder der Bördelrand im Bereich des Bodens Noppen aufweisen. Werden benachbart angeordnete Behälter miteinander in Anlage gebracht, greifen die Noppen der Behälter ineinander ein und fixieren deren relative Lage zueinander. Durch die Noppen kann somit eine seitliche Sicherung von mehreren Behältern relativ zueinander erfolgen. Für Einzelheiten im Zusammenhang mit der Ausgestaltung der Noppen sei auf die
Der Behälter kann, wie bei Dosen üblich, eine Seitenwand mit zylindrischer Grundform aufweisen, d.h. die Querschnittsfläche des Behälters bleibt über seine gesamte Höhe konstant. Dies ist u.a. für das Etikettieren des Behälters günstig. Es versteht sich, dass Behälter mit zylindrischer Grundform unterschiedliche Querschnittsgeometrien aufweisen können. Neben einem Kreis oder einem Oval als Querschnittsform können auch vieleckige, insbesondere quadratische oder rechteckige Querschnittsformen verwendet werden. Auch kann der Behälter ggf, eine von einer zylindrischen Grundform abweichende, z.B. konische Grundform aufweisen.The container can, as usual with cans, have a side wall with a cylindrical basic shape, ie the cross-sectional area of the container remains constant over its entire height. This is favorable inter alia for the labeling of the container. It is understood that containers having a cylindrical basic shape can have different cross-sectional geometries. In addition to a circle or an oval as a cross-sectional shape may also polygonal, in particular square or rectangular cross-sectional shapes be used. Also, if necessary, the container may have one of a cylindrical basic shape deviating, for example conical basic shape.
Der Behälter kann insbesondere auch einen Deckel zum Verschließen der Öffnung aufweisen, der einen Seitenrand zur dichtenden Verbindung mit einem Innenrand des Rahmens besitzt. Der Deckel kann an dem Rahmen beispielsweise durch Verrasten oder durch Aufprellen angebracht werden. Hierbei kann der Innenrand des Rahmens durch einen axialen Steg gebildet sein, der mit der Außenseite des Seitenrands am Deckel dichtend abschließt.The container may in particular also have a lid for closing the opening, which has a side edge for sealing connection with an inner edge of the frame. The lid can be attached to the frame, for example by latching or by bouncing. In this case, the inner edge of the frame may be formed by an axial web which seals with the outside of the side edge of the lid.
Der Deckel kann auch einen über den Innenrand des Rahmens überstehenden Vorsprung aufweisen, an dem bevorzugt eine Versteifung, insbesondere in Form von Querrippen vorgesehen ist. Typischer Weise verbleibt bei aufgesetztem Deckel zwischen dem Vorsprung und einer Abstützfläche an dem Rahmen eine Zwischenraum, in den ein Werkzeug, z.B. ein Schraubenzieher, eingeführt werden kann, um den Deckel vom Behälter abzuheben. Es versteht sich, dass zum Abheben des Deckels nicht zwingend ein Vorsprung vorgesehen werden muss. Auch kann an dem Deckel und/oder an dem Rahmen eine Öffnungshilfe, z.B. in Form einer Nut, zum Eingriff für ein Werkzeug vorgesehen sein. Es versteht sich, dass der Deckel und/oder der Rahmen ggf. auch mit einem Originalitätsverschluss versehen werden können, der es ermöglicht, einen geöffneten und nachträglich wieder verschlossenen Behälter zu erkennen. Es versteht sich weiterhin, dass der Deckel nicht notwendiger Weise aus einem Kunststoff-Material bestehen muss und z.B. auch aus Blech, Glas, etc. hergestellt werden kann.The cover may also have a projecting beyond the inner edge of the frame projection on which preferably a stiffening, in particular in the form of transverse ribs is provided. Typically, when the lid is placed between the projection and a support surface on the frame, there remains a gap into which a tool such as a screwdriver can be inserted to lift the lid off the container. It is understood that not necessarily a projection must be provided for lifting the lid. Also, an opening aid, for example in the form of a groove, may be provided for engagement with a tool on the cover and / or on the frame. It is understood that the lid and / or the frame can possibly also be provided with a tamper-evident closure, which makes it possible to detect an opened and subsequently resealed container. It is further understood that the lid does not necessarily have to be made of a plastic material and, for example, also made of sheet metal, glass, etc. can be made.
Der Behälter oder Teile des Behälters können z.B. aus Polyethylen oder Polypropylen hergestellt sein. Es versteht sich, dass unterschiedliche Teile des Behälters aus unterschiedlichen Kunststoff-Materialien bestehen können. So kann z.B. der Rahmen oder der Deckel aus einem anderen Kunststoff hergestellt werden als der Grundkörper (Seitenwand und Boden) des Behälters. Typischer Weise wird der vorliegend beschriebene Behälter im Spritzgussverfahren hergestellt. Es versteht sich aber, dass insbesondere bei klein dimensionierten Behältern einzelne Teile des Behälters, z.B. der Grundkörper (Seitenwand und Boden) auch auf andere Weise, z.B. durch Tiefziehen, hergestellt werden können.The container or parts of the container may e.g. be made of polyethylene or polypropylene. It is understood that different parts of the container may consist of different plastic materials. Thus, e.g. the frame or the lid are made of a different plastic than the main body (side wall and bottom) of the container. Typically, the container described herein is manufactured by injection molding. It will be understood, however, that particularly for small sized containers, individual parts of the container, e.g. the basic body (side wall and bottom) also in other ways, e.g. by deep drawing, can be produced.

Es versteht sich, dass der Bügel 3 anders als oben dargestellt nicht zwingend glatt sein muss. Beispielsweise kann der Kunststoff-Bügel 3 mit einer Profilierung, z.B. mit Zacken, Wellen oder Fähnchen, versehen werden. Insbesondere bei der Verwendung eines Zwei-Komponenten-Spritzgießverfahrens ist es auch möglich, für den Grundkörper 2 und den Bügel 3 unterschiedliche Kunststoff-Materialien zu wählen, die sich entlang einer Fließkante im Bereich der Filmscharniere 4a, 4b vereinigen. Beispielsweise kann hierbei eine unterschiedliche Farbgestaltung des Bügels 3 im Vergleich zum Grundkörper 2 erfolgen oder es können Materialien mit unterschiedlicher Steifigkeit für Bügel 3 und Grundkörper 2 gewählt werden. Für den Fall, dass der Rahmen 1 nur aus einem einzigen Kunststoff-Material hergestellt werden soll, kann dieser in einem Spritzgießverfahren mit einem einzigen Schuss hergestellt werden.It is understood that the

Es versteht sich, dass der Rahmen mit integriertem Bügel nicht zwingend kreisringförmig ausgestaltet sein muss. Vielmehr kann der Rahmen eine an die jeweilige Behältergeometrie angepasste Form aufweisen und z.B. oval oder mehreckig ausgestaltet sein. Auch können gegebenenfalls zusätzliche Formelemente, beispielsweise in Form von Verstärkungsrippen, an dem Rahmen vorgesehen werden. Selbstverständlich kann der Rahmen mit integriertem Bügel auch an Behältern angebracht werden, die keinen zylindrischen, über die Höhe des Behälters konstanten Querschnitt aufweisen, beispielsweise an konischen Behältern. In jedem Fall können die Herstellungskosten für den Behälter durch die die Integration des Bügels in den Rahmen gesenkt werden.It is understood that the frame with integrated bracket does not necessarily have to be designed annular. Rather, the frame may have a shape adapted to the respective container geometry and e.g. be designed oval or polygonal. Also, if necessary, additional mold elements, for example in the form of reinforcing ribs, may be provided on the frame. Of course, the frame with integrated bracket can also be attached to containers that have no cylindrical, over the height of the container constant cross-section, for example on conical containers. In any case, the manufacturing costs for the container can be reduced by the integration of the bracket in the frame.
