Definitions

  • the invention relates to a set consisting of at least two containers, each with different internal volumes, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Containers are used in many ways and are used in particular for storing, transporting, collecting and disposing of substances or materials, with containers of any size and shape being known. Waste containers that are intended for use in hospitals, veterinary clinics, doctor's and dentist's surgeries and in medical research and development laboratories, where infectious waste in particular is generated, are only used once or are disposed of together with the waste they contain after they have been removed appropriately sealed. For this reason it is necessary in these areas of application to have a correspondingly large number of new, empty containers in stock, which, for reasons of space, must be stackable, i.e. nestable. US4756420 discloses such a set of containers, each having different internal volumes and identical opening cross-sections, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a problem that arises when containers are stacked is that stacked containers are often extremely difficult to unstack, that is to say separate from one another. This is due to the fact that the lateral surfaces of containers stacked in one another rest against one another over a certain height and also slide along one another when pulled apart, so that on the one hand there is frictional resistance and on the other hand a vacuum is created in the space between the containers.
  • a second problem when storing the filled and sealed containers arises from the need to store and transport them in as space-saving a manner as possible. This requires that containers of different sizes can be safely stacked on top of each other. This means that the bottom surfaces of any size upper container will center neatly on the top surfaces of any size lower container.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a set of containers of the type mentioned at the outset that overcomes the aforementioned disadvantages and is characterized by space-saving stackability and easy unstacking.
  • the opening cross section of containers with different internal volumes it is already customary to design the opening cross section of containers with different internal volumes to be identical, so that identical lids can be used to close the containers.
  • the bottom of the various containers is also designed identically, which has the advantage that closed containers, i.e. containers provided with a lid, can be easily stacked. wherein the containers may have different internal volumes. This creates flexibility in the storage and use of containers of different sizes, which allows an optimal choice of the container size required in each case.
  • the vertical axis of the container coincides with the vertical and the term "straight section" is to be understood as a surface.
  • the positive effect of the inclined wall section can be increased if the containers in the set have several such wall sections. It is also possible for the entire lateral surface to be correspondingly inclined, so that the lateral surface of the container encloses an angle of at least 2 degrees, preferably between 2 degrees and 5 degrees, with the vertical all the way round.
  • the containers of the set must each have the same inclined straight line sections each have a differently designed transition section, which is located between the straight section and the floor and thus creates a connection between the straight section and the floor.
  • the transition section merges tangentially into both the straight section and the ground, with the course of the transition section consisting of arcs, circular arcs and elliptical arcs, or can be composed of them.
  • the containers of the set according to the invention therefore have different heights to create different internal volumes, which is compensated for by the different design of the respective transition section.
  • the at least two containers can have any internal volume, but internal volumes of 30 liters, 50 liters and 60 liters have proven to be particularly useful in practice. With regard to the durability and tightness of the containers, they can be made of plastic.
  • the containers can have any desired cross-section, that is, for example, can have a polygonal, round or elliptical cross-section. Mixed forms of round and angular cross sections are also possible, for example a rectangular cross section with rounded corners. Due to the fact that at least one wall section of the containers is inclined with respect to the vertical, an upper cross-sectional area is larger than a cross-sectional area below. The jacket can also be inclined overall with respect to the vertical.
  • the transition section is composed of two arc sections, with an arc section adjoining the straight section having a larger radius than an arc section adjoining the floor and the two arc sections tangentially merging into one another.
  • the transition section as such also has no kink.
  • the curved section adjoining the base has the same curvature for all containers in the set.
  • the arc length of the arc sections adjacent to the bottom of the different containers is different with the same curvature.
  • At least one arcuate section can be designed as a circular arc section, it being found to be advantageous if a circular arc section adjoining the base has a radius of between 12 mm and 18 mm, preferably a radius of 15 mm.
  • a top side of all containers in the set surrounding the opening cross-section is provided with a circumferential edge flange, which is equipped circumferentially with latching openings that are distributed and spaced apart from one another.
  • the containers of such a set are therefore suitable as waste containers in hospitals or other medical areas in which the containers are permanently closed with appropriate lids after they have been filled.
  • the known covers are characterized by circumferentially arranged snap hooks, which are introduced into the aforementioned snap-in openings.
  • the set according to the invention comprises a lid with a surface adapted to the bottom of the container and with an elevation adapted to the transition section of the at least one wall section and starting from a support surface. wherein in a stacked state of two containers, of which the lower one is provided with a lid, areas of the transition section are supported on contact surfaces of the elevation.
  • the elevation can also be interpreted as a bulge or step.
  • the lid designed in this way ensures that any container of the set can be closed, with another container of the set being able to be positioned on the container closed with the lid.
  • the set according to the invention can contain a number of identically designed lids corresponding to the number of containers in the set.
  • the containers are several Having wall sections with a straight section and a transitional section and the lid is accordingly equipped with several elevations, a particularly precise stacking of two containers is ensured.
  • the containers have a peripheral transition section and the cover(s) have a peripheral elevation.
  • the base of the at least two containers has a circumferential flat contact surface and a preferably centrally arranged depression in the direction of the inner volume, which preferably has an approximately rectangular cross section.
  • the lid can be provided with a centrally arranged handle without impairing the stackability of closed containers.
  • the geometry of the depression in the bottom of the container is then adapted to the geometry of the handle on the lid.

  • the containers 2 each have a rectangular cross section with rounded corners, the cross section decreasing continuously starting from an opening cross section 4 located on a top side 3 down to a bottom 5 . This is due to the fact that wall sections 6 of the jacket 7 of the individual containers 2 are inclined relative to a vertical axis 8 of the respective container 2 .
  • the three containers 2 On the upper sides 3, the three containers 2 each have a circumferential edge flange 9, which is provided with latching openings, not shown, for the introduction of corresponding snap hooks of a lid, not shown.
