Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a transportable container.
  • trunks In the wide product category of transportable containers it is possible to list trunks, crates, suitcases, trolleys, backpacks and other products, which differ in terms of shape, dimensions, materials and/or functionality, as well as for their intended use, the type of goods that can be transported and/or the customers of reference
  • Such a transportable container is for example known from EP 0 940 099 A2 .
  • These containers typically comprise a pair of mutually articulated half-shells, which are made of a material that is rigid and strong enough to ensure the capability to transport a considerable load and/or withstand even forceful impacts without being deformed and most of all without compromising the integrity of what is accommodated in the compartment delimited by said half-shells.
  • the accommodation (and therefore the transport) of the tools occurs tidily by virtue of a plurality of pockets, straps, and other retention means, which can be first of all distributed along the internal walls of the half-shells (which are appropriately lined).
  • resorting to these retention means facilitates the task of the user, who finds more easily and quickly what he needs in each instance, and at the same time avoids or in any case limits the risk of damage, preventing contacts and collisions among the tools or against the walls.
  • each panel is hinged to a supporting element, which in turn is fixed rigidly to one of the half-shells (while the other sides can be rested on respective brackets that protrude from the half-shells), obviously to prevent their free movement within the compartment and ensure stable support to the respective tools, furthermore avoiding the danger of losing them.
  • the aim of the present invention is to solve the problems described above, providing a container that offers practical methods for removable coupling for an internal panel.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a container that offers quick and easy methods for the coupling of a panel to one of the external half-shells that compose said container.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a container that allows to couple detachably an internal panel safely and with minimal risk of breakage, at the same time ensuring practical methods for at least temporary removal of said panel.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a container that allows a user to couple a panel to an external half-shell without requiring excessive care or attention during assembly.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a container that ensures high reliability in operation.
  • Another object of the invention is to propose a container that adopts a technical and structural architecture that is alternative to those of containers of the known type.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a container that can be obtained easily starting from commonly commercially available elements and materials.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a container that has low costs and is safe in application.
  • the reference numeral 1 generally designates a transportable container of the type of a suitcase, trunk, crate, trolley, and the like.
  • containers 1 More generically, it is specified that any reference that will be made in the present description to containers 1 is to be understood as extended to any type of product capable of accommodating objects and tools of various kinds, both for private use and for professional use.
  • the container 1 mainly for professional use, is a sort of rigid suitcase, made of a polymeric material with high impact resistance and optionally provided with appropriate solutions that ensure its completely hermetic seal.
  • the container 1 accommodates (tidily, as will become apparent) tools and equipment of various kinds which the user (a technician, a maintenance worker, a specialized worker, or the like) can thus easily transport to the work/intervention site, in order to have them easily available when needed.
  • the protective scope claimed herein is to be understood as referring also to other types of rigid or nonrigid containers 1 which are even adapted for other purposes and are made of any material.
  • the container 1 comprises two half-shells 2a, 2b which are mutually movable between a first configuration for closing an internal compartment 3 and at least one second configuration for free access to said compartment 3.
  • the two half-shells 2a, 2b both have a box-like shape and can constitute the two halves (of equal size) of the external shell that forms in practice the container 1, or can have different shapes and dimensions (in particular height), for example with a first half-shell 2a that is higher and the second half-shell 2b that acts as a lid.
  • the half-shells 2a, 2b can directly delimit the compartment 3, as in the embodiment of Figures 1 and 2 .
  • additional elements such as the one visible in Figures 3 and 5
  • the half-shells 2a, 2b are not shown but are immediate and evident to provide for a person skilled in the art (and for any other person, even lacking specific notions in the field).
  • the container 1 comprises at least one panel 4 which can be arranged inside the compartment 3.
  • the container 1 comprises a unit 6 for the removable engagement of the panel 4 to a wall 7 for delimiting the compartment 3.
  • Figures 10-12 and 13-15 relate to two different versions of the unit 6. A further version of the unit 6 is shown in Figures 21-22 , without thereby exhausting the possibilities that are in any case included within the protective scope claimed herein.
  • the unit 6 comprises a band 8 which is coupled to a profiled element 9, which in turn is rigidly anchored to an edge of the panel 4 (by adhesive bonding, by welding, by means of screws, nails, rivets or the like, or in yet other manners). Furthermore, the unit 6 comprises a pair of teeth 10, which extend from the band 8 on the opposite side with respect to the profiled element 9.
  • the coupling between the band 8 and the profiled element 9 can be of the rigid type or preferably can allow one or more mutual movements (an example will be seen in this regard hereinafter).
  • the teeth 10 can enter respective seats 11 that have a substantially corresponding shape and are provided along the wall 7. It is specified that the expression "substantially corresponding shape” is understood to mean that the seats 11 have, at least in one of their portions, a transverse cross-section that substantially coincides with the cross-section of the teeth 10, thus allowing the free sliding (insertion and extraction) of the latter.
  • respective mutually opposite protrusions 12 protrude normally from opposite faces of each tooth 10.
  • the protrusions 12 are elastically movable in order to allow removable interlocking coupling with the seats 11, following the return to the respective non-deformed configurations.
  • the protrusions 12 are in fact moved elastically and temporarily from their non-deformed configuration, to which they return when insertion is completed, in order to contrast subsequent extraction by interlocking.
  • the invention achieves the intended aim: the coupling of the panel 4 to the container 1 (to the wall 7 of the compartment 3) occurs in a practical and easy manner simply by inserting completely the teeth 10 in the seats 11, first temporarily overcoming the elastic reaction generated by the protrusions 12, to then allow it to provide the interlocking coupling.
  • the removable engagement of the panel 4 can occur for two opposite orientations of the latter.
  • each tooth 10 comprises a respective flattened plate, which is coplanar to the band 8.
  • Each plate is provided with a curved notch 13 (which is preferably U-shaped), which delimits an elastically oscillating central tab.
  • the protrusions 12 are constituted by respective mutually opposite expansions, which have an increased thickness and are provided on opposite faces of the tab.
  • the teeth 10 are preferably arranged at respective terminal portions of the band 8, so as to ensure a more stable engagement.
  • the seats 11 are constituted by respective slits, which are delimited by the wall 7 and by a contoured plate 7a, which is fixed to said wall 7.
  • Each seat 11 is thus open toward a free end of the wall 7 to allow the insertion of the teeth 10.
  • the plate 7a is provided with a pair of orifices 14 which are arranged in further communication with respective slits, in order to allow the elastic return of the corresponding protrusion 12 to the non-deformed configuration, with consequent interlocking coupling (when the tooth 10 reaches its stroke limit and is completely inserted in the seat 11).
  • the wall 7 can belong to one of the half-shells 2a, 2b, as in the accompanying Figures 1 and 2 , but it can also be part of a further internal component.
  • the seats 11 are constituted by respective slits, which are provided within the thickness of the wall 7 and are open toward a free end of the latter, in order to allow the insertion of the teeth 10.
  • the wall 7 has a pair of orifices 14, arranged in further communication with respective slits, in order to allow the elastic return of the corresponding protrusion 12 to the non-deformed configuration, with consequent interlocking coupling, and to allow subsequent extraction of the panel 4.
  • the wall 7 can belong to one of the half-shells 2a, 2b or, as indeed in the accompanying Figures 3 and 5 and as will be described in greater detail in the pages that follow, can be part of a further internal component.
  • the two protrusions 12 of the same tooth 10 can be movable in a mutually independent manner or preferably can be mutually integral.
  • each seat 11 has, on the opposite side with respect to the respective orifice 14, an elastically deformable back wall 15.
  • the back wall 15 can be made, preferably but not exclusively, like the rest of the container 1, of a polymeric material which is identical or different with respect to the one used for the other components.
  • the elastic deformability of the back wall 15 can be obtained simply by giving it a minimal thickness or in any case a thickness that is significantly lower than that of the surrounding elements.
  • the elastic deformability can be obtained by providing a cut around the back wall 15, so as to allow it to oscillate independently with respect to the surrounding structure.
  • the elastic deformability of the back wall 15 allows the elastic oscillation of the protrusions 12 during the insertion of the teeth 10 in the corresponding seats 11.
  • the protrusions 12 (which, as shown, are preferably able to move in a mutually integral manner) in fact have different shapes and dimensions. Therefore, when one proceeds with the insertion of the teeth 10 in the seats 11, one of them touches the wall 7 first and causes the corresponding oscillation of both.
  • the protrusion 12 that first touched the wall 7 tends to retract toward the profile of the plate, while the other one tends to protrude further on the opposite side, and this movement is assisted indeed by the temporary elastic deformation of the back wall 15, which then returns to the non-deformed condition when the first protrusion 12 in turn returns to the non-deformed configuration, engaging in the corresponding orifice 14.
  • the band 8 is coupled to the profiled element 9 by means of at least one connecting strip 16, which is made of flexible material and extends substantially parallel to the band 8 and to the profiled element 9.
  • the rotatable coupling of the band 8 to the profiled element 9 about an axis that is parallel to the profiled element 9, to the band 8 and to the edge of the panel 4 is achieved.
  • This rotatable coupling allows to rotate the panel 4 about the axis mentioned earlier (and in general parallel to the edge of said panel 4) when coupling to the wall 7 has already been provided, for example to have access to the portion of the compartment 3 that otherwise is closed by said panel 4.
  • the strip 16 can be made of a polymeric material (identical or different with respect to the one used for the half-shells 2a, 2b and/or for other components of the container 1) and the desired flexibility can be achieved by keeping the thickness sufficiently low.
  • the already mentioned slits extend from an interspace 17, which is provided proximate to the free end of the wall 7 and has an extension that corresponds to the extension of the band 8.
  • the balance 8 can thus enter partially the interspace 17 until it brings into abutment an end flap 8a thereof that has an enlarged transverse cross-section. This ensures a more stable coupling between the panel 4 and the wall 7; furthermore, the interspace 17 guides the insertion of the teeth 10 and of the band 8, indeed facilitating the engagement of the panel 4.
  • the band 8 can have a transverse shape that resembles an arrow, as in the accompanying figures, or be T-shaped, or it can have any other shape, without thereby abandoning the protective scope claimed herein.
  • the profiled element 9 can have a U-shaped transverse cross-section (such as for example in the unit 6 of Figures 10-12 or in the unit of Figures 21-22 ) in order to surround from the outside and from both sides the designated edge of the panel 4.
  • the profiled element 9 can have an L-shaped transverse cross-section (such as for example in the unit 6 of Figures 13-15 ) or can also be substantially flat, for example to be inserted in a groove provided along the designated edge of the panel 4 (or others still).
  • the wall 7 can be substantially constituted by a face of one of the half-shells 2a, 2b.
  • the seats 11 can be integrated within the thickness of the face of the half-shell 2a, 2b or, as indeed in the accompanying figures, be delimited by the face and by the plate 7a.
  • the wall 7 can be constituted substantially by a face of an at least partial internal lining of one of the half-shells 2a, 2b, which optionally can be removed independently.
  • the lining can affect only some faces of one of the half-shells 2a, 2b (even just one), or all of its faces, and for example can be formed by a sort of tray 18, which is indeed intended to be accommodated (preferably removably) in one of the half-shells 2a, 2b having a complementary shape.
  • the compartment 3 is at least partially delimited indeed by the tray 18.
  • the unit 8 has a transverse bracket 19, which protrudes from the profiled element 9, in order to constitute a support for additional elements or accessories.
  • the user can accommodate tools, equipment or other objects in the compartment 3, arranging them randomly or preferably tidily, to then carry them at will together with the container 1.
  • the panel 4, which in turn can be arranged in the compartment 3, allows to stably retain objects of various kinds by virtue of the retention means 5 that are distributed on one or both of its faces.
  • the invention offers practical methods for removable coupling of the panel 4 to the container 1 by virtue of the unit 6.
  • the oscillation allows first of all insertion and then ensures stable coupling, by virtue of the interlocking coupling achieved with the return to the non-deformed configuration of the mutually opposite protrusions 12 and of one in particular which enters the respective orifice 14.
  • the user simply has to press on the protrusions 12 that protrude from the orifices 14 to remove the interlocking coupling and be able to extract the teeth 10.
  • the container 1 according to the invention therefore offers practical methods for removable coupling the internal panel 4 to the wall 7 (and therefore, directly or indirectly, to one of the half-shells 2a, 2b). Engagement is in any case removable in an equally practical and easy manner.
  • the removable engagement of the panel 4 can occur equally regardless of which face of each tooth 10 is designed to be directed toward the compartment 3.
  • the panel 4 can be thus engaged with the rest of the container 1 in two different orientations, one of which can be obtained with a 180° rotation (tilting) of said panel 4 with respect to the other.
  • a preferred orientation between the two mentioned above is often provided: by virtue of the invention, even if the user distractedly couples the panel 4 to the wall 7 in the other orientation, correct operation and the possibility to remove it easily are in any case ensured, without running the risk of damaging the various components involved and/or of compromising the possibility of subsequently extracting said panel 4. Therefore, the removable engagement (in both orientations) can be provided without requiring excessive care or attention during the assembly step.
  • the materials used, as well as the dimensions, may be any according to the requirements and the state of the art.
