Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Isolationsbehälter umfassend eine Wanne mit einer Öffnung und einen Deckel zum Verschließen der Öffnung, wobei die Wanne eine umlaufende Wand mit vier jeweils rechtwinklig zueinander orientierten Seitenwänden aufweist. Der Deckel und die Wanne sind aus selbsttragenden und isolierenden Schaumstoff- oder Kunststoffteilen gebildet. Bevorzugt sind der Deckel und die Wanne materialidentischen und jeweils einteilig. Die Wanne und der Deckel sind unmittelbar form- und/oder kraftschlüssig miteinander verbindbar und schließen ein Transportvolumen ein. Die umlaufende Wand der Wanne ist durch mindestens eine Lage von jeweils einteiligen und materialidentischen und isolierenden Eckteilen in einer Richtung X nach oben aufgestockt.The invention relates to an insulation container comprising a trough with an opening and a lid for closing the opening, wherein the trough has a peripheral wall with four each oriented at right angles to each other side walls. The lid and the tub are made of self-supporting and insulating foam or plastic parts. Preferably, the lid and the tub are identical to the material and each in one piece.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Isolationsbehälter aus mehreren einzelnen selbsttragenden und unmittelbar miteinander verbundenen isolierenden Bauteilen derart auszubilden und anzuordnen, dass das Bauvolumen des leeren Isolationsbehälters zum Transport und zum Einlagern verkleinert werden kann und der leere Isolationsbehälter gleichzeitig stapelbar ist.The invention has the object of providing an insulating container of a plurality of individual self-supporting and directly interconnected insulating components in such a way and to arrange that the volume of the empty insulation container for transport and to Storage can be reduced and the empty insulation container is stackable at the same time.
Gelöst wird die Aufgabe erfindungsgemäß dadurch, dass die Eckteile in Umfangsrichtung U um die Öffnung herum angeordnet sind. Jedes Eckteil weist eine rechtwinklige oder L-förmige Grundform auf und ist unmittelbar form- und/oder kraftschlüssig mit dem Deckel und/oder der Wanne verbindbar. Als Grundform ist die Anordnung der beiden, ein Eckteil bildenden Schenkel zu verstehen, die in der Ansicht in Richtung der X-Achse auf die Eckteile erkennbar ist. Die Grundform der Eckteile bildet die Geometrie der umlaufenden Wand. Die umlaufende Wand umfasst vier Seitenwände, wovon jeweils ein Paar Seitenwände parallel zueinander angeordnet sind und die beiden Paare Seitenwände in dem Winkel der Grundform zueinander verlaufen. Eine Seitenwand wird somit durch jeweils einen Schenkel von zwei Eckteilen gebildet.The object is achieved according to the invention in that the corner parts are arranged in the circumferential direction U around the opening. Each corner part has a rectangular or L-shaped basic shape and is directly positive and / or non-positively connected to the lid and / or the tub connectable. As a basic form, the arrangement of the two, a corner part forming leg is to be understood, which can be seen in the view in the direction of the X-axis on the corner parts. The basic shape of the corner pieces forms the geometry of the circumferential wall. The peripheral wall comprises four side walls, of which each pair of side walls are arranged parallel to one another and the two pairs of side walls extend at the angle of the basic shape to one another. A side wall is thus formed by a respective leg of two corner parts.
Durch die L-förmigen Eckteile wird erreicht, dass die Seitenwände in einer Richtung rechtwinklig zu den Seitenwänden Innendruck im Isolationsbehälter aufnehmen können, ohne nach außen umzufallen, weil sich jeweils ein Schenkel des L-Profils über die Ecke des L-Profils anheben müsste, wenn der andere Schenkel des L-Profils nach außen kippen würde.By the L-shaped corner pieces is achieved that the side walls in a direction perpendicular to the side walls can absorb internal pressure in the insulation container without falling over to the outside, because one leg of the L-profile would have to raise above the corner of the L-profile, if the other leg of the L-profile would tilt outwards.
Vorteilhaft kann es hierzu auch sein, wenn jeweils vier Eckteile der einen Lage die Öffnung bilden, wobei das jeweilige Eckteil in mindestens zwei Richtungen rechtwinklig zur Richtung X unmittelbar formschlüssig mit der Wanne und/oder mit dem Deckel über einen Anker verankert ist.It may also be advantageous for this purpose if four corner portions of the one layer form the opening, wherein the respective corner part in at least two directions at right angles to the direction X directly form-fit with the trough and / or anchored to the lid via an anchor.
Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass durch Aufstocken der Wanne die Öffnung nach oben verlegt wird. Durch die formschlüssige Verbindung wird bei Druckbelastung eines oder mehrerer Eckteile ein Verschieben des oder der Eckteile durch den formschlüssigen Anker in Richtung X verhindert, weil der Anker der Druckbelastung in derselben Richtung rechtwinklig zur Richtung X entgegen wirkt und ein Verschieben verhindert. Durch den Anker erfährt das Eckteil bei Druckbelastung ein Drehmoment um den Anker. Dieses Drehmoment würde dann zum Verkippen des Eckteils und damit auch zum Anheben eines der beiden L-förmigen Schenkel führen, wenn das jeweilige Eckteil nicht auch durch den Deckel oder eine weitere Lage Eckteile in Richtung rechtwinklig zur Richtung X verankert wäre. Da die Eckteile im beladenen Zustand des Isolationsbehälters, jedoch in Richtung X, also von oben auch mit Druck durch den Deckel belastet sind, wird der Anker geschlossen gehalten.This ensures that the opening is laid up by topping up the tub. The positive connection prevents displacement of the one or more corner pieces by the positive armature in the direction X when pressure load of one or more corner parts, because the armature counteracts the pressure load in the same direction perpendicular to the direction X and prevents displacement. Due to the anchor, the corner part experiences a torque around the anchor under pressure load. This torque would then lead to tilting of the corner part and thus also to raise one of the two L-shaped legs, if the respective corner part would not be anchored by the lid or another position corner pieces in the direction perpendicular to the direction X. Since the corner pieces in the loaded state of the insulation container, but in Direction X, so loaded from above with pressure through the lid, the anchor is kept closed.
Weiter ist es vorteilhaft, dass der Anker als eine in Richtung X ineinander steckbare und in Umfangsrichtung U um den Isolationsbehälter verlaufende Nut- und Federverbindung ausgebildet ist, wobei die Wanne eine Nut, der Deckel eine Feder und die Eckteile jeweils auf der einen Seite eine Nut und auf der anderen Seite eine Feder aufweisen. Eine durch Innendruck erzeugte Kraft wirkt somit auf die Flanke der jeweiligen Nut bzw. Feder, sodass ein mögliches Drehmoment um die linienförmige Nut- und Federverbindung resultiert. Dadurch, dass die Nut- und Federflanken parallel zur Seitenwand ausgebildet sind, ist die Nut- und Federverbindung auch ohne Druckbelastung von oben sicher, wenn der Innendruck im Isolationsbehälter rechtwinklig auf die Seitenwände wirkt, ohne dass es einem Druck von oben bedarf.Further, it is advantageous that the armature is designed as a plug-in in the direction X and extending in the circumferential direction U around the insulation container groove and tongue, wherein the trough a groove, the lid a spring and the corner parts each on one side a groove and on the other side have a spring. A force generated by internal pressure thus acts on the flank of the respective groove or spring, so that a possible torque results around the linear tongue and groove connection. Characterized in that the tongue and groove flanks are formed parallel to the side wall, the tongue and groove connection is safe even without pressure load from above, when the internal pressure in the insulation container acts at right angles to the side walls, without the need for a pressure from above.
Besonders vorteilhaft kann es sein, wenn die Eckteile zwei unterschiedliche Geometrien aufweisen, wobei jeweils zwei gleiche Eckteile der ersten Geometrie und jeweils zwei gleiche Eckteile der zweiten Geometrie eine Lage bilden. Dadurch wird eine Modularität erreicht, bei der jedes Eckteil durch ein anderes Eckteil der gleichen Form ersetzt werden kann.It can be particularly advantageous if the corner parts have two different geometries, wherein in each case two identical corner parts of the first geometry and two identical corner parts of the second geometry form a layer. As a result, a modularity is achieved in which each corner part can be replaced by another corner part of the same shape.
Vorteilhaft kann es auch sein, wenn jeweils zwei Eckteile in Umfangsrichtung U um die Wand und in einer Richtung rechtwinklig zur Umfangsrichtung U formschlüssig aneinander anliegen. Hierdurch wird ergänzend zu den vorstehend beschriebenen Maßnahmen die Sicherung der Eckteile gegen Verschieben aufgrund von Innendruck und ein mögliches Verkippen der Eckteile verhindert.It may also be advantageous if in each case two corner parts in the circumferential direction U around the wall and in a direction perpendicular to the circumferential direction U form-fitting abut each other. As a result, in addition to the measures described above securing the corner pieces against Displacement due to internal pressure and possible tilting of the corner pieces prevented.
Besonders kann es vorteilhaft sein, wenn in das durch die Wanne mit geschlossenem Deckel gebildete Transportvolumen alle Eckteile von mindestens einer Lage hineinpassen. Nach dem Entleeren des Isolationsbehälters wird die auf die Wanne aufgesetzte Lage von Eckteilen abgenommen, in die Wanne gelegt und die Wanne mit dem Deckel verschlossen. Hierzu sind die Eckteile maximal so hoch wie die Innenhöhe der Wanne, damit der Deckel geschlossen werden kann. Der Isolationsbehälter bildet somit teilweise seinen eigenen Stauraum, der alle Bauteile für eine Volumenvergrößerung aufnimmt.In particular, it can be advantageous if all the corner parts of at least one layer fit into the transport volume formed by the pan with the lid closed. After emptying the insulation container, the patch on the tub position of corner pieces is removed, placed in the tub and closed the tub with the lid. For this purpose, the corner parts are as high as the inner height of the tub, so that the lid can be closed. The insulation container thus partially forms its own storage space, which accommodates all components for an increase in volume.
Für den Fall, dass mehrere Lagen von Eckteilen aufgesetzt sind, wird zumindest eine Lage der Eckteile nach dem Ausladen abgebaut und im Behälter verstaut und der Behälter wieder mit dem Deckel verschlossen. Dabei kann eine Lage von Eckteilen aufgesetzt bleiben oder bei vorteilhafter Gestaltung alle Eckteile der beiden Lagen von Eckteilen in der Wanne verstaut werden.In the event that several layers of corner pieces are placed, at least one layer of corner pieces is dismantled after unloading and stowed in the container and the container is closed again with the lid. In this case, a position of corner parts remain put on or be stored in an advantageous design all corner portions of the two layers of corner pieces in the tub.
Hierzu ist es vorteilhaft, dass die innere Höhe der Wand der Wanne mindestens der Höhe der Eckteile entspricht, sodass die Eckteile in die Wanne hineingestellt werden können.For this purpose, it is advantageous that the inner height of the wall of the tub at least equal to the height of the corner parts, so that the corner parts can be placed into the tub.
Von besonderer Bedeutung kann für die vorliegende Erfindung sein, wenn die Wand und/oder das jeweilige Eckteil mehrere, parallel zueinander verlaufende Stege mit einem T-förmigen oder hinterschnittenen Profil aufweist, wobei die Stege von der Wanne und von den Eckteilen Richtung X zueinander fluchten. Durch jeweils zwei solcher T-förmigen oder hinterschnittenen Profile wird eine Aufnahme für Kühlakkus gebildet. Die Breite der Kühlakkus entspricht dabei im Wesentlichen dem Abstand von zwei Stegen, die Dicke der Kühlakkus entspricht der Höhe der Stege.Of particular importance may be for the present invention, when the wall and / or the respective corner part has a plurality of mutually parallel webs with a T-shaped or undercut profile, wherein the webs of the tub and of the corner parts X direction aligned with each other. By two such T-shaped or undercut profiles a receptacle for cooling batteries is formed. The width of the cooling batteries corresponds essentially to the distance of two webs, the thickness of the cooling batteries corresponds to the height of the webs.
Im Zusammenhang mit der erfindungsgemäßen Ausbildung und Anordnung kann es von Vorteil sein, wenn als Schaumstoff oder Kunststoff Polystyrol (PS), Expandierter Polystyrol-Hartschaum (EPS), Expandiertes Polypropylen (EPP), Polyurethane (PU).In connection with the design and arrangement according to the invention, it may be advantageous if polystyrene (PS), expanded polystyrene rigid foam (EPS), expanded polypropylene (EPP), polyurethanes (PU) as foam or plastic.
Außerdem kann es vorteilhaft sein, wenn zumindest eine in Richtung X stirnseitige Kante des Stegs eine Fase aufweist.In addition, it may be advantageous if at least one edge X of the web in the direction X has a chamfer.
Vorteilhaft kann es hierzu auch sein, dass der durch die Wanne gebildete Boden innenseitig Noppen aufweist, zwischen denen Kanäle zur Aufnahme von Kondensat gebildet sind.It may also be advantageous for this purpose that the bottom formed by the trough has nubs on the inside, between which channels for receiving condensate are formed.
Ferner kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass im Deckel innenseitig mindestens eine im Wesentlichen rechteckförmige Ausnehmung zur Aufnahme eines Kühlakkus vorgesehen ist.Furthermore, it may be advantageous that at least one substantially rectangular recess for receiving a cooling battery is provided on the inside of the cover.
Dabei kann es vorteilhafterweise vorgesehen sein, dass durch die Wanne mit ein und mehreren Lagen von Eckteilen und geschlossenem Deckel ein Transportvolumen zwischen 120 Liter und 500 Liter gebildet wird.It may be advantageously provided that a transport volume between 120 liters and 500 liters is formed by the tub with one and more layers of corner pieces and closed lid.
Dabei kann ein System von Vorteil sein, bestehend aus einem Isolationsbehälter mit mindestens einem Kühlakku. Bevorzugt weist der Kühlakku eines solchen Systems eine Länge auf, sodass er zwei Eckteile miteinander verbinden kann.In this case, a system may be advantageous, consisting of an insulation container with at least one cooling battery. Prefers The cooling battery of such a system has a length such that it can connect two corner parts together.
Vorteilhaft kann es ferner für das System, wenn die innere Höhe der Wanne in Richtung X der Länge des Kühlakkus entspricht. Dabei schließt der Kühlakku nach oben hin in Richtung X mit dem Rand der Wanne ab. In einer anderen Ausführungsform mit längeren Akkus oder mit Akkus, die in Richtung X versetzt sind, ist die Trennfuge zwischen der Wanne und der auf die Wanne aufgesetzten Lage von Kühlakkus abgedeckt. Dadurch wird die Leckage reduziert, die durch die Trennfuge entsteht.It can also be advantageous for the system if the inner height of the trough in the direction X corresponds to the length of the cooling battery. The cooling battery closes upwards in the direction X with the edge of the tub. In another embodiment, with longer batteries or with rechargeable batteries, which are offset in the direction X, the parting line between the tub and the patch on the tub layer of cold packs is covered. This reduces the leakage caused by the parting line.
Zusätzlich kann es vorteilhaft für das System sein, wenn die Höhe der Eckteile der Länge des Kühlakkus entspricht. Dabei ist die Trennfuge entweder zwischen der Wanne und dem Eckteil oder zwischen zwei übereinander angeordneten Eckteilen nicht durch den Kühlakku abgedeckt. Bei einer alternativen Ausführungsform mit längeren Akkus oder mit Akkus, die in Richtung X versetzt sind, ist die Trennfuge entweder zwischen der Wanne und dem Eckteil oder zwischen zwei übereinander angeordneten Eckteilen durch den Kühlakku abgedeckt.In addition, it may be advantageous for the system if the height of the corner parts corresponds to the length of the cooling battery. In this case, the parting line is not covered either by the cooling battery between the tub and the corner part or between two stacked corner parts. In an alternative embodiment with longer batteries or with rechargeable batteries which are offset in the direction X, the parting line is covered either between the trough and the corner part or between two stacked corner parts by the cooling battery.

In einem nicht dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind der Deckel und die Wanne aus jeweils unterschiedlichen Schaum- oder Kunststoffen gebildet.In one embodiment, not shown, the lid and the tub are each formed of different foams or plastics.
Die Wanne 3 weist einen Boden 32 und eine um die X-Achse umlaufende Wand auf. Die Wand wird durch vier rechtwinklig zueinander angeordnete Seitenwände 41-44 gebildet, die nach oben hin, in Richtung Deckel 2 in gleicher Höhe abschließen und eine Öffnung 31 bilden.The
Auf die Wanne 3 werden mehrere Lagen 6a-6c von Wänden aufgesetzt, die aus jeweils vier rechtwinkligen oder L-förmigen Eckteilen 71a-74c gebildet sind. Dabei bilden jeweils ein Schenkel von zwei aneinander gesetzten Eckteilen einer Lage eine der vier Seitenwände.On the tub 3 a plurality of

Für eine stabile Verbindung zwischen den Eckteilen 71a-74c und der Wanne 3 sowie zwischen den Eckteilen 71a-74c und dem Deckel 2 sind Nut- und Federverbindungen vorgesehen, die in den
In verbundenem geschlossenem Zustand des Isolationsbehälters 1 wird durch die Verankerung über Nut 75 und Feder 21 in rechtwinkliger Richtung zur Achse X erreicht, dass die Eckteile 71a-74c nicht durch Druck von innen im Isolationsbehälter 1 nach außen geschoben werden und auch nicht nach außen kippen. Der Druck von innen wird durch das Ladegut erzeugt, das durch das Eigengewicht und durch Transportbewegungen Kräfte auf die Innenwand des Isolationsbehälters 1 überträgt.In connected closed state of the
Zusätzlich zu dieser Verankerung mit Nut und Feder liegen die Eckteile 71a-74c in einer Richtung rechtwinklig zur X-Achse an ihren Verbindungsstellen aneinander an. In Figur 3a, einer vergrößerten Darstellung eines Details aus
Der Deckel 2 weist wie auch in
Auf der Innenseite der Eckteile 71a-74c und der Wanne 3 sind Stege 8 zur Befestigungen von Kühlakkus 9 vorgesehen. Die Stege 8 haben ein T-förmiges Profil, sodass durch die Hinterschneidung zwischen der Innenseite der Eckteile 71a-74c und dem Steg 8 eine Aufnahme für einen Kühlakku 9 gebildet wird. In
Der Kühlakku 9, der in die Aufnahmen von zwei Stegen 8 von zwei benachbarten Eckteilen 71a-74c eingeschoben ist, verbindet somit die beiden Eckteile 71a-74c formschlüssig. Dadurch wird die Stabilität des Isolationsbehälter 1 erhöht. Das Einschieben des Kühlakkus 9 wird durch eine Fase 82 an der Kante 81 des Stegs 8 erleichtert, wie es in den
Nach den hier dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen sind innen um den Isolationsbehälter 1 umlaufend 12 Kühlakkus 9 vorgesehen. Berücksichtigt man, dass die Länge 91 der Kühlakkus der Höhe 77 der Eckteile 71a-74c und der inneren Höhe 36 der Wanne 3 entspricht, so sind pro Lage 6a-c und in der Wanne 3 jeweils 12 Kühlakkus 9 vorgesehen. Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß
Auf dem Boden 32 der Wanne 3 sind Noppen 34 vorgesehen, wodurch Kanäle 35 zum Sammeln von Kondensat geschaffen werden, das sich bei der Kühlung im Behälter ansammelt.On the bottom 32 of the
Damit die Trennfugen 11 zwischen der Wanne 3 und den Eckteilen 71a-74c sowie die Trennfugen 11 zwischen den Eckteilen 71a-74c weniger Leckage erzeugen, werden die Kühlakkus 9 wie in Figur 9 dargestellt vor den Fugen 11 positioniert. Hierzu wird ein langer Kühlakku 9 durch einen kürzeren Kühlakku 9a nach oben verschoben.In order for the
