Definitions
- the invention relates to a stacking container for the transport and storage of objects consisting of a rectangular bottom with side walls rising vertically from the bottom edges, the upper edge of the side walls projecting outwards as a bearing surface for the likewise outwardly projecting edge of a second structurally identical container is formed, wherein the top of the upper edge of the side walls and the bottom of the edge surrounding the bottom are complementary to each other.
- Such stacking containers are known per se. For example from the DE 78 07 870 U1 and the EP 2 664 556 A1 which discloses a stacking container according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the mutually interacting support surfaces, the upper edge of the side walls on the one hand and the lower edge surrounding the base are formed horizontally, that is to say at a right angle from the side wall.
- rainwater for example, can accumulate between the containers and can flow into the respective container below.
- the stackability is also impaired insofar as dirt particles or the like are located on the horizontally running flange-like edges can accumulate, so that a full surface contact of the container is not guaranteed.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of designing a stacking container of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that these disadvantages are reduced.
- the invention solves this problem according to the characterizing part of claim 1 in that in the course of the container circumference, partial surfaces of the upper edge or the edge are designed differently in terms of their angle of inclination, in such a way that the corner regions of the edge enclosing the base also lie between two abutting side walls are formed horizontally, while between the corner areas the upper edge or the edge are at least partially inclined from the level of the horizontal corner area plane outwards and downwards.
- the horizontal corner areas are the areas that accommodate the load on the container or containers stacked one above the other.
- the areas arranged in between and distributed obliquely downwards around the circumference of the container allow rainwater or washing water to flow downwards, as with a house roof, so that there is no danger that this water can penetrate into the container.
- Another advantage of these inclined areas is that dirt and foreign bodies have less grip on the inclined surface and therefore these surfaces are better kept clean.
- Another advantage of the container design is that due to the different distribution of inclinations around the circumference of the container, when two identical containers are placed one on top of the other, there is a certain form-fit and a self-centering effect.
- the transition area between the horizontal corner areas and the inclined portions is formed in a vertical projection from above triangular obliquely.
- the obliquely outwardly and downwardly inclined edge regions can be continuously inclined from the side wall of the container, it is alternatively provided according to claim 3 that the outwardly inclined sections merge into a narrow horizontal strip in their outer edge region. This narrow edge strip contributes to the stability of the container construction.
- the upper edge of the side walls is flange-like over the entire surface so that impinging water or dirt can run off on these surfaces.
- the complementary support does not necessarily have to be formed over the entire area in the floor area, in particular not in the area of the corners, which saves material.
- claim 5 provides that the side walls on their outside below the outwardly projecting upper edge are reinforced by horizontal and vertical ribs, which ribs can also be present in the area of the lower edge.
- the stacking containers according to the invention are advantageously produced from plastic in an injection molding process.
- a stacking container is shown and generally provided with the reference number 1. It consists of a base 2 and side walls 3 rising from the base 2. The side walls 3 have an upper edge 4 which, with its outwardly projecting bearing surface, is provided for an identical container 1 placed on the container 1.
- the upper edge in the corner area between two abutting side walls 3 is formed as a horizontal surface 5.
- the edge regions adjoining the horizontal bearing surface 5 laterally have an inclined outward and downward course and are provided with the reference number 6.
- the transition between the horizontal bearing surface 5 and the obliquely inclined partial surface 6 is formed by an approximately triangular surface 7 inclined obliquely both in the circumferential direction and perpendicularly thereto.
- the side walls 3 are reinforced by vertical ribs 9 and horizontal ribs 10.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Stapel-Behälter zum Transport und Lagern von Gegenständen bestehend aus einem rechteckigen Boden mit von den Bodenrändern vertikal aufsteigenden Seitenwänden, wobei die Oberkante der Seitenwände nach außen kragend als Auflagefläche für den den Boden umschließenden ebenfalls nach außen kragenden Rand eines zweiten baugleichen Behälters ausgebildet ist, wobei die Oberseite der Oberkante der Seitenwände und die Unterseite des den Boden umschließenden Randes komplementär zueinander geformt sind.The invention relates to a stacking container for the transport and storage of objects consisting of a rectangular bottom with side walls rising vertically from the bottom edges, the upper edge of the side walls projecting outwards as a bearing surface for the likewise outwardly projecting edge of a second structurally identical container is formed, wherein the top of the upper edge of the side walls and the bottom of the edge surrounding the bottom are complementary to each other.
Derartige Stapel- Behälter sind an sich bekannt. So zum Beispiel aus der
Darüber hinaus ist auch die Reinigung derartiger Behälter nicht ganz einfach.In addition, cleaning such containers is not very easy.
Schließlich ist auch die Stapelbarkeit insofern beeinträchtigt, als sich auf den horizontal verlaufenden flanschartigen Kanten Schmutzpartikel oder ähnliches ansammeln kann, so dass ein vollflächiges Aufliegen der Behälter übereinander nicht gewährleistet ist.Finally, the stackability is also impaired insofar as dirt particles or the like are located on the horizontally running flange-like edges can accumulate, so that a full surface contact of the container is not guaranteed.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Stapelbehälter der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, dass diese Nachteile vermindert werden.The invention is therefore based on the object of designing a stacking container of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that these disadvantages are reduced.
Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 dadurch, dass im Verlauf des Behälterumfangs Teilflächen der Oberkante bzw. des Randes in ihrem Neigungswinkel unterschiedlich ausgebildet sind, derart, dass auch die Eckbereiche des den Boden umschließenden Randes zwischen jeweils zwei aneinander stoßenden Seitenwänden horizontal ausgebildet sind, während zwischen den Eckbereichen die Oberkante bzw. der Rand zumindest stückweise vom Niveau der horizontalen Eckbereichsebene nach außen und unten schräg geneigt ausgebildet sind.The invention solves this problem according to the characterizing part of
Somit sind die horizontalen Eckbereiche die Bereiche, die die Auflast des Behälters bzw. der Behälter, der/die übereinander gestapelt sind, aufnehmen. Die dazwischen angeordneten, um den Umfang des Behälters verteilten schräg nach unten geneigten Bereiche lassen Regenwasser oder auch Waschwasser wie bei einem Hausdach nach unten außen abfließen, so dass keine Gefahr besteht, dass dieses Wasser in die Behälter eindringen kann. Ein weiterer Vorteil dieser schräg geneigten Bereiche ist darin zu sehen, dass Verschmutzungen und Fremdkörper auf der schrägen Fläche weniger Halt haben und diese Flächen daher besser sauber zu halten sind.Thus, the horizontal corner areas are the areas that accommodate the load on the container or containers stacked one above the other. The areas arranged in between and distributed obliquely downwards around the circumference of the container allow rainwater or washing water to flow downwards, as with a house roof, so that there is no danger that this water can penetrate into the container. Another advantage of these inclined areas is that dirt and foreign bodies have less grip on the inclined surface and therefore these surfaces are better kept clean.
Ein weiterer Vorteil der Behälterausgestaltung liegt darin, dass durch die unterschiedliche Neigungsverteilung um den Umfang des Behälters herum beim Aufeinandersetzen zweier gleichartiger Behälter eine gewisse Formschlüssigkeit und ein Selbstzentrierungseffekt gegeben sind.Another advantage of the container design is that due to the different distribution of inclinations around the circumference of the container, when two identical containers are placed one on top of the other, there is a certain form-fit and a self-centering effect.
Gemäß Anspruch 2 ist vorgesehen, dass der Übergangsbereich zwischen den horizontalen Eckbereichen und den geneigt ausgebildeten Teilstücken in vertikaler Projektion von oben dreieckförmig schräg verlaufend ausgebildet ist.According to
D.h., dass der horizontale Eckbereich nicht abrupt in den schräg geneigten Randbereich übergeht, sondern im Hinblick auf die bessere Waschbarkeit und Handhabbarkeit harmonisch ineinander übergeht.This means that the horizontal corner area does not abruptly merge into the sloping edge area, but rather blends into one another with a view to better washability and handling.
Obwohl die schräg nach außen und unten geneigten Randbereiche von der Behälterseitenwand nach außen durchgehend schräg ausgebildet sein können, ist alternativ gemäß Anspruch 3 vorgesehen, dass die nach außen geneigt verlaufenden Teilstücke in ihrem Außenrandbereich in einen schmalen horizontalen Streifen übergehen. Dieser schmale Randstreifen trägt zur Stabilität der Behälterkonstruktion bei.Although the obliquely outwardly and downwardly inclined edge regions can be continuously inclined from the side wall of the container, it is alternatively provided according to
Gemäß Anspruch 4 ist vorgesehen, dass die Oberkante der Seitenwände flanschartig vollflächig ausgebildet ist, damit auftreffendes Wasser oder Verschmutzungen an diesen Flächen ablaufen können. Demgegenüber braucht die komplementäre Auflage im Bodenbereich nicht unbedingt vollflächig ausgebildet zu sein, insbesondere nicht im Bereich der Ecken, wodurch eine Materialersparnis gegeben ist.According to
Zur Verstärkung des Behälters sieht Anspruch 5 vor, dass die Seitenwände auf ihrer Außenseite unterhalb der nach außen kragenden Oberkante durch horizontale und vertikale Rippen verstärkt sind, wobei diese Rippen auch im Bereich der Unterkante vorhanden sein können.To reinforce the container,
Die erfindungsgemäßen Stapelbehälter werden vorteilhafterweise gemäß Anspruch 6 aus Kunststoff im Spritzgießverfahren hergestellt.The stacking containers according to the invention are advantageously produced from plastic in an injection molding process.
Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden anhand von Zeichnungen dargestellt und erläutert.The invention is illustrated and explained below with reference to drawings.
