Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Behälter, insbesondere Schmuckstück, zum Einfüllen von Asche von Verstorbenen sowie ein Verfahren zum Befüllen desselben.The invention relates to a container, in particular piece of jewelry, for filling ash of the deceased and a method for filling the same.
Es besteht der Wunsch einen kleinen Teil der Asche kremierter Angehöriger in unauffälligen Behältern im Alltag mit sich zu führen. Dazu werden "Mini-Urnen" angeboten, die auch als "Aschen-Anhänger", "Aschen-Medaillons" oder "Memorial Schmuck" bezeichnet werden. Diese haben häufig die unauffällige Form eines Schmuckstücks und können zum Beispiel am Hals, Arm oder Finger getragen werden oder auch als Ansteckschmuck, z. B. Brosche. Aus praktischen Gründen, aber auch aus Pietät besteht dabei der verständliche Wunsch nach völliger Dichtheit des Behälters, so dass weder Asche verloren gehen kann, noch diese mit Feuchtigkeit vermischt werden kann. Allgemein besteht der Wunsch nach Behältern als Erinnerungsstück, z. B. als Accessoir. Dieses kann in vielfältiger Form ausgestaltet sein, z. B. als Kerzenständer, Handschmeichier (gerundetes Objekt, z. B. aus Stein oder Metall), Schlüsselanhänger und dergleichen.There is a desire to carry a small part of the ashes of cremated relatives in inconspicuous containers in everyday life with them. These are offered "mini urns", which are also referred to as "ash pendant", "ash medallions" or "Memorial jewelry". These often have the inconspicuous shape of a piece of jewelry and can be worn for example on the neck, arm or fingers or as Ansteckschmuck, z. B. brooch. For practical reasons, but also out of piety there is the understandable desire for complete tightness of the container, so that neither ash can be lost, nor this can be mixed with moisture. Generally there is a desire for containers as a memento, z. B. as an accessory. This can be configured in various forms, for. As a candlestick, Handschmeichier (rounded object, such as stone or metal), key chains and the like.
Dem Erfinder bekannte MiniUrnen werden durch Verklebung oder eine Schraubverbindung oder einer Kombination aus beidem verschlossen. Es besteht stets langfristig das Risiko, dass die angestrebte völlige Dichtheit verloren geht.Miniatures known to the inventor are closed by gluing or a screw connection or a combination of both. There is always the long term risk that the desired total tightness is lost.
Auch normale Urnen sollen aus Gründen nach dem Verschließen nicht mehr zerstörungsfrei geöffnet werden können. Üblicherweise wird ein aus Blech bestehender Deckel mit einer Spreizzange in Ausnehmungen im Randbereich der Urne hinein verformt.Even normal urns should not be able to be opened without destruction for reasons after closing. Usually, a lid made of sheet metal is deformed into recesses in the edge region of the urn with a spreading forceps.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen verbesserten Behälter, insbesondere Schmuckstück, zum Einfüllen von Asche von Verstorbenen sowie ein verbessertes Verfahren zum Befüllen desselben bereitzustellen.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide an improved container, in particular piece of jewelry, for filling ash of the deceased and an improved method for filling the same.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch den Behälter mit den Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs, sowie ein Verfahren zum Befüllen desselben mit den Merkmalen des nebengeordneten Anspruchs. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This object is achieved by the container having the features of the main claim, and a method for filling the same with the features of the independent claim. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.
Wie bei den bekannten Mini-Urnen weist auch der erfindungsgemäße Behälter zum Einfüllen von Asche von Verstorbenen, welcher z. B. in Form eines Schmuckstücks ausgebildet ist, einen Grundkörper mit einem Hohlraum zur Aufnahme der Asche sowie einen mit dem Grundkörper verbindbaren Verschluss zum gasdichten Verschließen des Hohlraums auf. Erfindungsgemäß weist allerdings der Grundkörper und der Verschluss Einweg-Einrastmittel auf. Diese sind derart, dass der Hohlraum mittels des Verschlusses werkzeugfrei gasdicht verschlossen werden kann durch Drücken des Verschlusses gegen den Grundkörper. Die Verwendung von Einweg-Einrastmittel erlaubt eine unlösbare Verbindung durch einfaches Zusammenführen von zwei Bauteilen, nämlich den Grundkörper und dem Verschluss, was auch ohne Werkzeug erfolgen kann. Einweg-Einrastverbindungen werden bewirkt durch das Zurückfedern eines Rastkörpers in einer Ausnehmung des zu verriegelnden Gegenkörpers. Wenn der Rastkörper nach dem Einrasten nicht mehr zugänglich ist, ist ein zerstörungsfreies Lösen der Verbindung nicht mehr möglich. Ein gasdichtes Verschließen kann dabei beispielsweise durch elastische Dichtungen oder eine Presspassung oder gar eine Kombination erreicht werden, wie weiter unten ausgeführt. Das erfindungsgemäße "Einklicken" des Verschlusses wird als pietätvoll empfunden, da die Asche des Verstorbenen nicht im Gewinde eines Drehverschlusses oder in einem Klebstoff landet.As with the known mini urns, the container according to the invention for filling of ashes of deceased, which z. B. in the form of a piece of jewelry, a base body having a cavity for receiving the ashes and a connectable to the body closure for gas-tight closure of the cavity. However, according to the invention, the base body and the closure have disposable latching means. These are such that the cavity can be closed gas-tight by means of the closure tool-free by pressing the closure against the body. The use of disposable locking means allows a permanent connection by simply bringing together two components, namely the base body and the closure, which can be done without tools. One-way snap-in connections are caused by the spring-back of a locking body in a recess of the counter-body to be locked. If the locking body is no longer accessible after snapping, a non-destructive release of the connection is no longer possible. A gas-tight closure can be achieved for example by elastic seals or a press fit or even a combination, as explained below. The "clicking in" of the closure according to the invention is perceived as reverent because the ashes of the deceased do not end up in the thread of a screw cap or in an adhesive.
Werkzeugfrei im Sinn der Erfindung bedeutete, dass zum Verschließen keine Werkzeuge oder Kleber oder dergleichen zum Einsatz kommen müssen. Es reicht z. B. ein Einklicken von Hand durch leichten Druck. Unter "werkzeugfrei" fällt aber auch, dass zum Zusammendrücken von Grundkörper und Verschluss möglicherweise erhebliche Kräfte unter Einsatz des vollen Körpergewichts aufgewendet werden müssen.Tool-free in the sense of the invention meant that no tools or glue or the like must be used for closing. It is enough for. B. a manual click by light pressure. Under "tool-free" but also falls that may be used to compress the body and closure significant forces using the full body weight.
Vorzugsweise sind die Einweg-Einrastmittel derart ausgebildet, dass der gasdicht verschlossene Hohlraum nach dem Verschließen mittels des Verschlusses nicht geöffnet werden kann, insbesondere nicht gasdurchlässig gemacht werden kann ohne den Behälter oder Grundkörper oder Verschluss zu zerstören. Dies gibt die notwendige Gewissheit, dass die Asche im Behälter unberührt und vollständig ist, was bei den aus dem Stand der Technik vorbekannten verklebten oder verschraubten Behältern nicht der Fall ist.Preferably, the disposable latching means are formed such that the gas-tightly sealed cavity after closing by means of Closure can not be opened, in particular, can not be made gas-permeable without destroying the container or body or closure. This gives the necessary certainty that the ashes in the container are unaffected and complete, which is not the case with the previously known from the prior art glued or screwed containers.
Vorzugsweise wird zum Verschließen des Behälters das Zusammenspiel zwischen zwei korrespondierenden Nuten, nämlich einer Außennut und einer dazu koaxialen und in derselben Ebene liegenden Innennut, welche in Richtung auf die Außennut geöffnet ist, genutzt. Je nach Konstruktion des Verschlusses sind Lösungen realisierbar, bei denen der Verschluss einer Außennut und der Grundkörper eine Innenut trägt, oder umgekehrt. Entscheidend ist, dass sich jeweils eine Außennut und Innennut gegenüberstehen und ein Verriegelungselement, insbesondere einen Sprengring, welcher sich in den beiden korrespondierenden Nuten erstreckt, aufnehmen können. Dieser Sprengring ist in den korrespondierenden Nuten derart versteckt, dass er nicht mehr geöffnet werden kann durch Spreizen oder Zusammendrücken. Demzufolge weist also vorzugsweise der Grundkörper eine Innennut bzw. Außennut und der Verschluss eine korrespondierende Außennut bzw. Innennut auf, wobei die beiden korrespondierenden Nuten in derselben Ebene liegen und gegeneinander geöffnet sind, wenn der Hohlraum verschlossen ist.Preferably, to close the container, the interaction between two corresponding grooves, namely an outer groove and a coaxial thereto and lying in the same plane inner groove, which is open in the direction of the outer groove used. Depending on the construction of the closure solutions are feasible, in which the closure of an outer groove and the body carries an inner groove, or vice versa. It is crucial that each face an outer groove and inner groove and a locking element, in particular a snap ring, which extends in the two corresponding grooves record. This snap ring is hidden in the corresponding grooves so that it can not be opened by spreading or squeezing. Accordingly, preferably, the base body has an inner groove or outer groove and the closure has a corresponding outer groove or inner groove, wherein the two corresponding grooves lie in the same plane and are mutually open when the cavity is closed.
Ferner kann daher als Einweg-Einrastmittel ein Sprengring vorgesehen sein, welcher in den beiden korrespondierenden Nuten gehalten ist, wenn der Hohlraum verschlossen ist.Further, therefore, as a one-way Einrastmittel a snap ring may be provided, which is held in the two corresponding grooves when the cavity is closed.
Ein Sprengring dient im Maschinenbau zur formschlüssigen, axialen Festlegung von Bauteilen wie Rädern oder Lagern auf Achsen, Wellen bzw. Lagern, Achsen etc. in Bohrungen. Der Sprengring selbst besteht aus Federstahl-Draht mit gleichbleibendem Querschnitt, der zu einem Ring gebogen ist. Auf eine Welle in einer Außennut aufgebrachte Sprengringe werden auch als Wellensicherungsringe bezeichnet, während in eine Bohrung in eine Innennut eingebrachte Sprengringe als Bohrungssicherungsringe bezeichnet werden. Die Erfindung benutzt wahlweise beide Arten von Sprengringen und unterscheidet dabei nicht explizit zwischen den beiden Arten. Dies ergibt sich zwangsläufig aus den unterschiedlichen Einsatzorten.A snap ring is used in mechanical engineering for the positive, axial fixing of components such as wheels or bearings on axles, shafts or bearings, axles etc. in bores. The snap ring itself consists of spring steel wire with constant cross section, which is bent into a ring. Snap rings applied to a shaft in an external groove are also referred to as shaft securing rings, while snap rings introduced into a bore into an internal groove are referred to as bore securing rings. The invention uses alternatively both types of snap rings and does not differentiate between the two types explicitly. This inevitably results from the different locations.
Die Montierbarkeit des Behälters wird vorzugsweise dadurch erreicht, dass vor dem Drücken / Einsetzen des Verschlusses gegen den Grundkörper der Sprengring in der einen Innennut bzw. der einen Außennut eingesetzt ist. Der Sprengring wird also in eine der beiden korrespondierenden Nuten eingesetzt. Zum Verschließen sind nun Keilflächen in Richtung auf die korrespondierende andere Innennut bzw. die korrespondierende andere Außennut vorgesehen, welche beim Hereinführen und Drücken des Verschlusses gegen den Grundkörper ein Spreizen bzw. Zusammendrücken des Sprengrings bewirken, so dass der Sprengring in die korrespondierende Innennut bzw. die korrespondierende Außennut federn kann. Je nach konstruktiver Ausgestaltung können die Keilflächen Bestandteil des Verschlusses, des Grundkörpers oder auch des Sprengringes sein.The mountability of the container is preferably achieved by inserting the snap ring into the one inner groove or one outer groove before pressing / inserting the closure against the base body. The snap ring is thus inserted into one of the two corresponding grooves. For closing now wedge surfaces are provided in the direction of the corresponding other inner groove or the corresponding other outer groove, which cause the spreading and squeezing of the closure against the main body spreading or compression of the snap ring, so that the snap ring in the corresponding inner groove or the corresponding outer groove can spring. Depending on the structural design, the wedge surfaces may be part of the closure, the body or the snap ring.
Vorzugsweise ist zu Dichtzwecken eine elastische Dichtung, insbesondere ein O-Ring, zwischen Grundkörper und Verschluss vorgesehen, welche unter Druckspannung steht, wenn der Hohlraum verschlossen ist. Diese Dichtung kann dabei verborgen sein, so dass sie wenigen Umwelteinflüssen ausgesetzt ist und somit länger hält.Preferably, for sealing purposes, an elastic seal, in particular an O-ring, is provided between the base body and closure, which is under compressive stress when the cavity is closed. This seal can be hidden, so that it is exposed to a few environmental influences and thus last longer.
Ferner vorzugsweise ist der Verschluss napfartig ausgebildet mit einem Bodenbereich und einem Wandbereich mit einem oberen Rand. Zum pietätvollen Befüllen kann daher der Napf auf dem Tisch stehend bequem mit Asche gefüllt werden. Danach wird der Grundkörper von oben auf den Napf gesetzt und somit der Napf, also der Verschluss von unten in den Hohlraum des Grundkörpers eingeführt, bis die Einweg-Einrastverbindung einschnappt. Falls vorhanden, wird dabei vorzugsweise die Dichtung zwischen Hohlraum und oberem Rand eingequetscht zum Bilden eines gasdichten Verschlusses.Further preferably, the closure is cup-shaped with a bottom portion and a wall portion with an upper edge. For pietätvollen filling therefore the bowl can be easily filled standing on the table with ash. Thereafter, the main body is placed on top of the cup from above and thus the cup, so the closure is inserted from below into the cavity of the body until the one-way snap-in snaps. If present, the seal between the cavity and the upper edge is preferably squeezed in to form a gas-tight seal.
Wenn die Außenseite des Bodenbereichs bündig mit der Außenseite des Grundkörpers abschließt, ergibt sich ein unauffälliges und ästhetisches Erscheinungsbild und der Verschluss wird nicht als solcher erkannt. Dies stärkt auch das Vertrauen in die völlige Dichtheit des Behälters.If the outside of the bottom area is flush with the outside of the body, this results in an inconspicuous and aesthetic Appearance and the shutter is not recognized as such. This also strengthens confidence in the complete tightness of the container.
Vorzugsweise ist alternativ oder ergänzend zur Dichtung vorgesehen, dass der Verschluss und der Hohlraum zumindest in einem Bereich, vorzugsweise im Bodenbereich, eine Presspassung bilden, wenn der Hohlraum verschlossen ist. Dies gibt weitere Sicherheit und vor allem signalisiert dem Anwender, dass auch bei Alterung der Dichtung ausreichend Dichtigkeit gegeben ist.Preferably, as an alternative or in addition to the seal, it is preferably provided that the closure and the cavity form an interference fit at least in one region, preferably in the bottom region, when the cavity is closed. This provides additional safety and, above all, signals to the user that even with aging of the seal is given sufficient tightness.
Vorzugsweise weist der Behälter Befestigungsmittel, insbesondere eine Bohrung, zum Verbinden mit Schmuckstücken, insbesondere Kettchen, Halsreifen, Armreifen, Fingerringen auf. Dies erlaubte die Integration des Behälters in gängige Schmucksysteme und dient auch als Verlierersicherung. Ferner ist der Behälter stets sichtbar und somit für den Träger stets präsent.The container preferably has fastening means, in particular a bore, for connecting to jewelery, in particular small chains, collars, bangles, finger rings. This allowed the integration of the container in popular jewelry systems and also serves as a loser insurance. Furthermore, the container is always visible and thus always present to the wearer.
Aus diesem Grund kann der Behälter auch Fassungen zum Einsetzen von Steinen, Halbedelsteinen, synthetischen Edelsteinen, Edelsteinen, Fingerabdrücken in 2D oder 3D, Fotos - auch hinter transparenter Abdeckung - aufweisen. Wenn die Fassung unabhängig von dem aschegefüllten Hohlraum ist, kann eine Anpassung des Behälters an geändertem Geschmack erfolgen ohne die Asche freizulegen.For this reason, the container can also sockets for insertion of stones, semi-precious stones, synthetic gemstones, gemstones, fingerprints in 2D or 3D, photos - even behind transparent cover - have. If the socket is independent of the ash-filled cavity, the container can be adapted to a changed taste without exposing the ash.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zum Befüllen eines Behälters oder eines Schmuckstückes, insbesondere mit den oben beschriebenen Merkmalen mit Asche von Verstorbenen, kann in den folgenden Schritten erfolgen:
- a) Bereitstellen eines Grundkörpers mit einem Hohlraum zur Aufnahme von Asche von Verstorbenen, und
- b) Bereitstellen eines mit dem Grundkörper verbindbaren Verschlusses zum gasdichten Verschließen des Hohlraums,
wobei der Grundkörper und der Verschluss Einweg-Einrastmittel aufweisen derart, dass der Hohlraum mittels des Verschlusses werkzeugfrei gasdicht verschlossen werden kann durch Drücken des Verschlusses gegen den Grundkörper; - c) Befüllen des Hohlraumes mit Asche;
- d) Drücken des Verschlusses gegen den Grundkörper bis das Einweg-Einrastmittel einrastet.
- a) providing a body with a cavity for receiving ashes of deceased, and
- b) providing a closure which can be connected to the base body for gas-tight sealing of the cavity,
wherein the base body and the closure comprise disposable latching means such that the cavity can be gas-tightly closed by means of the closure without tools by pressing the closure against the base body; - c) filling the cavity with ash;
- d) pushing the closure against the body until the one-way latch engages.
Vorzugsweise ist der Verschluss napfartig ausgebildet und wird vor Schritt c) mit Asche gefüllt; und das Befüllen des Hohlraumes mit Asche im Schritt c) erfolgt durch Einführen des Verschlusses von unten in den Hohlraum des Grundkörpers.Preferably, the closure is cup-shaped and is filled with ash prior to step c); and the filling of the cavity with ash in step c) takes place by inserting the closure from below into the cavity of the main body.
Ferner vorzugsweise ist eine elastische Dichtung vorgesehen, welche bis zum Einrasten der Einweg-Einrasmittel zusammengedrückt werden muss beim Drücken des Verschlusses gegen den Grundkörper.Further, preferably, an elastic seal is provided, which must be compressed until the engagement of the disposable Einrasmittel when pressing the closure against the body.
In einer Weiterentwicklung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass ein Set aus zwei erfindungsgemäßen Behältern gebildet wird, welche über Verbindungsmittel miteinander verbunden sind. Diese Verbindungsmittel können als weiteres Bauteil, bzw. in Form eines Kupplungsstücks oder Rahmens oder als integriertes Bauteil der Behälter, z. B. Einrastkupplung, Dreh- oder Gewindeverschluss vorgesehen sein; aber als eine Kombination aus integrierten und externen Bauteilen.
