Definitions
- the present invention relates to a lid for a container according to the preamble of claim 1.
- lids for bulk containers e.g. Octane, rectangle or round containers
- Commercially available lids for such containers are usually made of corrugated cardboard and are designed such that they are continuously closed on the lid surface and provided with glued short side elements.
- octabin lids for special stackable plastic octabins are also offered which are relatively expensive, heavy, and also not designed to guide suction tubes through the lid.
- the lid is that these covers can not accommodate suction tubes, quickly pollute and are very bulky and thus difficult to handle. In the case of a corrugated cardboard lid they are still easy to damage and not durable.
- the known lid In order to perform a filling or emptying of the container, the known lid must be completely removed or placed on the container to form a through-slot, so that a suction tube is inserted.
- plastic granules and powders for example, grain / flour in bakeries
- plastic granules and powders are also increasing partially closed lid due to the ambient conditions moisture from the air, resulting in additional post-drying and considerable energy costs.
- weather-related environment variables are a significant problem here.
- the suction tube With the suction tube simply plugged in, it can be used for off-center displacement of the suction tube and thus for inhomogeneous evacuation, e.g. in the case of granule mixtures with colored batch particles or recycled materials, which as a rule are distributed inhomogeneously in the container.
- the suction tube can change its own weight and its position with increasing emptying because it "floats" in the granules. This can lead to an uneven emptying process, with subsequently increased control and intervention costs.
- Such an inhomogeneous discharge process can result in significant quality variations in production.
- a slipping suction tube can push the lid away, which in turn can lead to increased contamination of the bulk material, or get jammed and / or only suck in air. In the worst case, it comes to production losses.
- the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a lid for containers of the type mentioned, which does not have the disadvantages mentioned above.
- the second cover elements can be folded below or above the first cover element and the second cover elements in particular each have the same or a smaller surface area than the first cover element.
- the foldable page elements can hereby less than 99.9%, more preferably less than 90%, more preferably less than 75% and at least 25%, more preferably at least 50%, more preferably at least 70% of the length of the lid member. In this way, a particularly compact folding of the lid with an optimized (minimized) space is created.
- first side of the lid member different second side of the lid member are provided two opposite this foldable first side elements.
- these side elements are designed so that they can be attached to the container wall and thus exert a fastening function.
- the first side elements are formed with connecting means for connecting the side elements to the container to be covered. This is particularly advantageous when the lid is combined with a tube for filling or emptying.
- the side elements also serve to stabilize the entire lid system.
- second side elements which are foldable on the second lid elements are connected via one or more folding edges and / or hinges and / or film hinges.
- These second page elements can turn with Be provided connecting means to fix them to the container wall.
- suitable as connecting means such as adhesive, Velcro or other connecting means such as For example, magnets, snap fasteners, hooks, eyes, tabs or straps.

- the holder of the suction tube is thus either 90 ° degrees to the lid but also executed in different variants with different inclinations and thus allows optimal emptying of the container.
- the inclinations are preferably carried out in fixed units and / or also variably rotatable in smaller steps and are fixed by means of locking elements.
- connection opening can be arranged substantially centrally, in particular, on the cover element. In this way is achieved that when the intake manifold is introduced a displacement of the lid due to asymmetrical force introduction via the suction pipe is avoided. But also an eccentric arrangement is conceivable, for example, to provide a balance, if the container is to be stored approximately on an inclined plane.
- the molded part with the connection opening can for example be inserted into two parallel running guide rails which are attached to the cover, so that it can be removed for folding the cover.
- connection opening is configured with a pierceable elastomer unit and / or a closure element.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Deckel für einen Behälter nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a lid for a container according to the preamble of claim 1.
Beispielsweise im Bereich der Kunststoffverarbeitung sind Deckel für Schüttgutbehälter, wie z.B. Oktabin-, Rechteck- oder runde Behälter, bekannt. Handelsübliche Deckel für solche Behälter bestehen in der Regel aus Wellpappe und sind derart gestaltet, dass diese auf der Deckeloberfläche durchgängig geschlossen und mit verklebten kurzen Seitenelementen versehen sind.For example, in the field of plastics processing, lids for bulk containers, e.g. Octane, rectangle or round containers, known. Commercially available lids for such containers are usually made of corrugated cardboard and are designed such that they are continuously closed on the lid surface and provided with glued short side elements.
Diese Abdeckungen werden in der Regel einmal oder nur wenige Male benutzt, verschmutzen und beschädigen leicht und werden insofern schnell unbrauchbar. Sie haben nur die Funktion, den Behälter zu verschließen und dessen Seitenwandungen ggf. in Form zu halten bzw. abzustützen. Sie sind insbesondere nicht geeignet, um marktübliche Granulat-Saugrohre durch den Deckel zu führen oder diese zu halten.These covers are usually used once or only a few times, dirty and damage easily and are therefore quickly unusable. They only have the function of closing the container and possibly holding or supporting its side walls in the form. In particular, they are not suitable for guiding conventional granulate suction pipes through the lid or holding them.
Es werden ferner z.B. schwere, hochfeste Oktabin-Deckel für spezielle stapelbare Oktabins aus Kunststoff angeboten, die relativ teuer, schwer und ebenfalls nicht dafür ausgelegt sind, um Saugrohre durch den Deckel zu führen.For example, heavy, high strength octabin lids for special stackable plastic octabins are also offered which are relatively expensive, heavy, and also not designed to guide suction tubes through the lid.
Erheblich nachteilig am Stand der Technik der Deckel ist, dass diese Deckel keine Saugrohre aufnehmen können, schnell verschmutzen sowie sehr sperrig und somit schwer zu handhaben sind. Sie sind im Falle eines Wellpappdeckels weiterhin leicht zu beschädigen und nicht langlebig.Significantly disadvantageous in the prior art, the lid is that these covers can not accommodate suction tubes, quickly pollute and are very bulky and thus difficult to handle. In the case of a corrugated cardboard lid they are still easy to damage and not durable.
Um eine Befüllung oder Entleerung des Behälters durchführen zu können, müssen die bekannten Deckel vollständig entfernt oder unter Bildung eines Durchgangsschlitzes auf den Behälter gelegt werden, damit ein Saugrohr einführbar ist.In order to perform a filling or emptying of the container, the known lid must be completely removed or placed on the container to form a through-slot, so that a suction tube is inserted.
Hierdurch entstehen unter anderem folgende Gebrauchsnachteile:
Bei der Teilauflage des Deckels zur Ausbildung eines Durchsteckschlitzes oder bei entferntem Deckel ist das Schüttgut vor Verschmutzung schlechter oder gar nicht geschützt. Insbesondere bei hochwertigen, statisch aufgeladenen und/oder transparenten Kunststoffgranulaten und/oder solchen für anspruchsvolle Anwendungen, ist eine Verschmutzung des Granulats oder Schüttguts jedoch unbedingt zu vermeiden. Aufgrund der beispielsweise unterschiedlichsten Granulattypen in der Kunststoffverarbeitung und der nicht selten umfangreichen Staubentwicklung müssen die Schüttgüter im Behälter gut geschützt werden. Die Verschmutzung des Schüttgutes führt ansonsten zu inakzeptablen Mehrkosten bei der Weiterverarbeitung.This causes, among others, the following disadvantages of use:
In the partial edition of the lid to form a through slot or with the lid removed, the bulk material is less well or not protected from contamination. In particular, in high-quality, statically charged and / or transparent plastic granules and / or those for demanding applications, contamination of the granules or bulk material, however, must be avoided. Due to, for example, the most varied types of granules in plastics processing and often extensive dust development, the bulk materials in the container must be well protected. The contamination of the bulk material otherwise leads to unacceptable additional costs during further processing.
Viele Kunststoffgranulate und Pulver (beispielsweise Getreide/Mehl in Bäckereibetrieben) nehmen zudem bei nur teilverschlossenem Deckel durch die Umgebungsbedingungen Feuchtigkeit aus der Luft auf, was zu zusätzlichem Nachtrocknen und erheblichen Energiekosten führt. Gerade die witterungsbedingten Umgebungsvariablen stellen hier ein erhebliches Problem dar.Many plastic granules and powders (for example, grain / flour in bakeries) are also increasing partially closed lid due to the ambient conditions moisture from the air, resulting in additional post-drying and considerable energy costs. Especially the weather-related environment variables are a significant problem here.
Weiterhin kann es bei einfach eingestecktem Saugrohr zur außermittigen Verlagerung des Saugrohres und damit zur inhomogenen Entleerung, z.B. bei Granulatmischungen mit Farbbatchpartikeln oder Rezyklaten kommen, die sich in der Regel inhomogen im Behälter verteilen. Das Saugrohr kann das Eigengewicht und seine Lage mit zunehmender Entleerung ändern, weil es im Granulat eingesteckt "schwimmt". Es kann hierdurch zu einem ungleichmäßigen Entleerungsprozess kommen, mit nachfolgend erhöhtem Kontroll- und Interventionsaufwand. Ein derartig inhomogener Entleerungsprozess kann erhebliche Qualitätsschwankungen in der Produktion zur Folge haben. Ein verrutschendes Saugrohr kann den Deckel wegdrücken, was wiederum zur erhöhten Verschmutzung des Schüttgutes führen kann, oder sich verklemmen und/oder nur noch Luft ansaugen. Im schlimmsten Fall kommt es dann zu Produktionsausfällen.Furthermore, with the suction tube simply plugged in, it can be used for off-center displacement of the suction tube and thus for inhomogeneous evacuation, e.g. in the case of granule mixtures with colored batch particles or recycled materials, which as a rule are distributed inhomogeneously in the container. The suction tube can change its own weight and its position with increasing emptying because it "floats" in the granules. This can lead to an uneven emptying process, with subsequently increased control and intervention costs. Such an inhomogeneous discharge process can result in significant quality variations in production. A slipping suction tube can push the lid away, which in turn can lead to increased contamination of the bulk material, or get jammed and / or only suck in air. In the worst case, it comes to production losses.

Die wenigstens eine Öffnung ist bevorzugt rund und weist dabei vorzugsweise einen Durchmesser von 76 bis 36 cm, bevorzugt weniger als 20 cm, weiter bevorzugt weniger als 10 cm und noch weiter bevorzugt weniger als 5 cm auf. In die Anschlussöffnung kann insbesondere ein Saugrohr oder ein Schlauch oder dergleichen eingesteckt werden. Bevorzugt weist die Anschlussöffnung ein Formteil aus Kunststoff- oder/und Metall- und/oder Naturwerkstoffen auf. Dieses Formteil dient als Adapter zum Anbringen des Saugrohrs oder dergleichen.Preferably, it is further provided that for the optimized storage position the second cover elements and in particular the first side element are placed in a transport or storage position with its inner surface on the cover element. According to the invention, it is provided that the cover element has at least one connection opening for filling or emptying. Also, a plurality of such openings may be provided to allow about the emptying of the container into several production lines. The at least one opening is preferably round and preferably has a diameter of 76 to 36 cm, preferably less than 20 cm, more preferably less than 10 cm and even more preferably less than 5 cm. In particular, a suction tube or a hose or the like can be inserted into the connection opening. Preferably, the connection opening on a molding of plastic and / or metal and / or natural materials. This molding serves as an adapter for attaching the suction pipe or the like.
Die genannten Kunststoff- oder Metallformteile, die die mindestens eine Durchstecköffnung ausbilden und/oder rahmen und/oder versteifen, können mit unterschiedlichen Innen- und Außendurchmessern, und/oder mit unterschiedlichen Führungselementen, und/oder unterschiedlichen Längen der Führungselemente, vorzugsweise als Rohrstutzen ausgebildet sein.The named plastic or metal moldings which form and / or frame and / or stiffen the at least one through-opening can have different inner and outer diameters, and / or with different guide elements, and / or different lengths of the guide elements, preferably be designed as a pipe socket.
Das Formteil ist dabei vorzugsweise mit mindestens einer Durchstecköffnung und entweder dichtend oder weitgehend dichtend zum einzusteckenden Saugrohr ausgebildet, wobei der Deckel und/oder das Formteil zusätzliche Zuluftöffnungen oder -spalten oder luftdurchlässige Vorrichtungen mit Trocknungsmitteln zum Druckausgleich aufweisen können. Alternativ oder ergänzend kann das Formteil nicht dichtend zum Saugrohr ausgebildet sein, um Nebenluft zum Druckausgleich zu ermöglichen.The molded part is preferably formed with at least one through opening and either sealing or largely sealing the einzusteckenden suction tube, wherein the lid and / or the molded part can have additional Zuluftöffnungen or columns or air-permeable devices with drying means for pressure equalization. Alternatively or additionally, the molded part may not be designed to be sealing to the suction pipe in order to allow secondary air for pressure equalization.
Bevorzugt ist die wenigstens eine Anschlussöffnung bzw. der Adapter so ausgebildet, dass er das wenigstens eine eingesteckte Saugrohr mit der Rohrlängsachse in einem Winkel zur Deckeloberfläche verläuft. Bevorzugt kann dieser Winkel 90° betragen, möglich ist aber auch, dass der Winkel vorzugsweise mehr als 75°, weiter bevorzugt mehr als 45° und noch weiter bevorzugt mehr als 30° und/oder 30° beträgt. Die Halterung des Saugrohrs ist also entweder 90° Grad zum Deckel aber auch in unterschiedlichen Varianten mit verschiedenen Schrägstellungen ausgeführt und ermöglicht so eine optimale Restentleerung des Behälters. Die Schrägstellungen sind vorzugsweise in festen Einheiten ausgeführt und/oder auch variabel in kleineren Schritten drehbar und werden über Rastelemente fixiert.Preferably, the at least one connection opening or the adapter is designed such that it extends the at least one inserted suction tube with the tube longitudinal axis at an angle to the lid surface. Preferably, this angle can be 90 °, but it is also possible that the angle is preferably more than 75 °, more preferably more than 45 ° and even more preferably more than 30 ° and / or 30 °.

The inclinations are preferably carried out in fixed units and / or also variably rotatable in smaller steps and are fixed by means of locking elements.
Die Anschlussöffnung kann dabei insbesondere am Deckelelement im Wesentlichen mittig angeordnet sein. Auf diese Weise wird erreicht, dass bei eingebrachtem Saugrohr eine Verschiebung des Deckels infolge asymmetrischer Krafteinleitung über das Saugrohr vermieden wird. Aber auch eine außermittige Anordnung ist denkbar, z.B. um einen Ausgleich zu schaffen, falls der Behälter etwa auf einer schiefen Ebene gelagert werden soll. Das Formteil mit der Anschlussöffnung kann z.B. in zwei parallel zueinander laufende Führungsschienen, die am Deckel angebracht sind, eingeschoben werden, so dass es zum Zusammenfalten des Deckels entfernt werden kann.The connection opening can be arranged substantially centrally, in particular, on the cover element. In this way is achieved that when the intake manifold is introduced a displacement of the lid due to asymmetrical force introduction via the suction pipe is avoided. But also an eccentric arrangement is conceivable, for example, to provide a balance, if the container is to be stored approximately on an inclined plane. The molded part with the connection opening can for example be inserted into two parallel running guide rails which are attached to the cover, so that it can be removed for folding the cover.
Bevorzugt kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Anschlussöffnung mit einer durchstoßbaren Elastomereinheit und/oder einem Verschlusselement ausgestaltet ist. Die Anschlussöffnung, die bevorzugt als Durchstecköffnung ausgebildet ist, kann mit Dichtlippen und/oder Gummimanschetten und/oder elastischen Ventilen selbstverschließend ausgebildet sein. Auf diese Weise wird sichergestellt, dass das Durchtreten von Verunreinigungen durch den Deckel in das Innere des Behälters vermieden wird. Auch kann der Deckel so im zusammen gefalteten Zustand gegenüber Verunreinigungen bei der Lagerung geschützt werden.It can preferably be provided that the connection opening is configured with a pierceable elastomer unit and / or a closure element. The connection opening, which is preferably designed as a through opening, may be self-closing with sealing lips and / or rubber sleeves and / or elastic valves. In this way it is ensured that the passage of contaminants through the lid is avoided in the interior of the container. Also, the lid can be protected in the folded state against contamination during storage.

Der erfindungsgemäße Deckel ist aus kompakten Platten und/ oder Stegplatten und/oder Mehrschichtplatten und/oder Leichtbauplatten aus handelsüblichen kompakten und/oder geschäumten Kunststoffen (z.B. PP, PE, PUR, PVC oder dergleichen) oder Wellpappe oder Organoblechen bzw. Faserverbundwerkstoffen hergestellt. Auch Kombinationen daraus sind möglich.The cover according to the invention is made of compact sheets and / or multi-layer sheets and / or lightweight panels of commercially available compact and / or foamed plastics (for example PP, PE, PUR, PVC or the like) or corrugated or organo sheets or fiber composites. Also combinations of these are possible.
Auch die Verwendung von handelsüblichen Holz- und/oder Bauplatten und/oder Compositeplatten und/oder Aluminiumplatten kann in speziellen Anwendungsfällen als Material für den Deckel vorteilhaft sein. Weiterhin kann das Deckelmaterial antistatisch ausgestattet sein, um Staubanhaftungen zu reduzieren.Also, the use of commercially available wood and / or building boards and / or composite panels and / or aluminum plates may be advantageous in special applications as a material for the lid. Furthermore, the lid material may be antistatic to reduce dust buildup.
Bevorzugt sind auch zumindest imprägnierte und/oder lackierte und/oder kunststofffolien- und/oder kunststoffgewebekaschierte Platten und/oder Pappen sowie Naturfasermaterialien. Zur besseren Haltbarkeit, Abwischbarkeit und aus Kostengründen sind Deckschichten und/oder Folien aus handelsüblichen Kunststoffen (Homo- oder Copolymere) insbesondere Polypropylen (PP), Polyethylen (PE), Polyurethan (PUR) und Polyvinylchlorid (PVC) und/oder damit beschichtete Gewebe und/oder Textilien bevorzugt.Preference is also given to at least impregnated and / or lacquered and / or plastic-film and / or plastic-fabric-laminated panels and / or boards as well as natural fiber materials. For better durability, wiping and cost reasons are outer layers and / or films of commercially available plastics (homopolymers or copolymers) in particular polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PUR) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and / or coated therewith fabric and / or textiles preferred.
Für besondere Anwendungen, die insbesondere von der Art des in den Behälter zu füllenden Gutes abhängig sind, ist nach einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung vorgesehen, dass der Deckel auf seiner - dem Behälter in der Gebrauchsstellung zugewandten - Innenseite eine feuchtigkeitsaufnehmende Einrichtung mit Trockenmittel (z.B. Silikate oder andere hygroskopische Stoffe), vorzugsweise eine auswechselbare Trockenmitteleinheit mit Lüftungsöffnungen, aufweist. Auf diese Weise kann in dem Behälter oder im darin befindlichen Schüttgut vorhandene störende Feuchtigkeit absorbiert werden.For special applications, which depend in particular on the nature of the goods to be filled into the container, according to a further embodiment of the invention, the lid on its - the container in the use position facing - inside a moisture-absorbing device with desiccant (eg silicates or other hygroscopic substances), preferably a replaceable desiccant unit with ventilation openings. In this way, existing disturbing moisture can be absorbed in the container or in the bulk material therein.
Weiter kann der Deckel eine Erdungseinrichtung zur Ableitung einer statischen Aufladung aufweisen. Dadurch kann die nachfolgende Verarbeitung des Schüttgutes vereinfacht werden, da dies sich infolge der inneren Reibung beim Entleeren des Behälters sonst aufladen würde. Dies wird mit der Erdung sicher vermieden.Further, the lid may have a grounding device for dissipating a static charge. Thereby, the subsequent processing of the bulk material can be simplified, as this would otherwise charge due to the internal friction during emptying of the container. This is certainly avoided with the grounding.
Zudem kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Deckel einstückig hergestellt ist. Zum Beispiel kann er gestanzt oder aus zusammengefügten, zum Beispiel geklebten und/oder verschweißten, Elementen aufgebaut sein. Faltkanten können aus dem Deckelmaterial durch Prägung, Stanzung, Perforation, Ultraschallschweißung oder -prägung gebildet werden und/oder durch die faltbaren Elemente verbindenden flexiblen Folien und/oder textilen Materialien oder Gewebe gebildet werden. Diese verbindenden Materialien können auf das Deckelmaterial aufgeschweißt und/oder geklebt und/oder auch über Filmscharniere oder Doppel-/Mehrfachfalze direkt durch Kunststoffverbindungen gebildet werden.In addition, it can be provided that the lid is made in one piece. For example, it may be stamped or constructed of assembled, for example glued and / or welded, elements. Folded edges may be formed from the lidding material by embossing, die cutting, perforation, ultrasonic welding or embossing, and / or formed by flexible films and / or textile materials or fabrics connecting the foldable elements. These connecting materials can be welded onto the lid material and / or glued and / or formed by film hinges or double / multiple folds directly by plastic compounds.
Schließlich kann der Deckel wenigstens eine zusätzliche Öffnung aufweisen. Diese dient dazu Messtechnik, insbesondere Messsonden oder Messfühler oder Entlüftungs- oder Druckausgleichseinrichtungen, in das Innere des Behälters zu führen, um Aufschluss über den Zustand des Schüttgutes - z.B. dessen Feuchtigkeit oder Temperatur - zu erhalten.Finally, the lid may have at least one additional opening. This serves to guide measuring technology, in particular measuring probes or measuring sensors or venting or pressure compensation devices, into the interior of the container in order to provide information about the state of the bulk material - e.g. its humidity or temperature - to get.
