Definitions

  • the invention relates to containers made of plastic, with a rectangular base and four side walls, the base having a first stacking contour on its underside on its outer edge, the side walls having a second stacking contour on their upper edge region, and when containers are stacked one on top of the other, the first stacking contour upper container and the second stacking contour of a lower container come into a centering engagement with each other.
  • a container for the transport and storage of goods is known, with a rectangular base and with four rigid or foldable side walls protruding from the base, the base having stacking edges on the underside and the side walls each having a stacking surface on the upper side, the stacking edges and the stacking surfaces having a Stacking of several containers are carried out permissively one on top of the other.
  • the side walls In the case of containers for sensitive goods, such as fruit, the side walls should be flexible to a certain extent, if possible, in order to avoid pressure points on the goods. On the other hand, this compliance of the side walls leads to the problem of an increased risk of buckling of the top edge of the side walls of lower, heavily loaded containers in a stack of loaded containers, making the stack unstable.
  • Containers with a reinforced upper edge area are also already known.
  • the document DE 296 01 187 U1 shows a load carrier made of foam, in particular made of particle foam, with at least one stacking edge, and deals with the problem of increasing the load-carrying capacity. To solve this, a stiffening profile is provided on at least part of the edge of the stack.
  • load carriers made of foam require relatively thick walls, but only a low mechanical load-bearing capacity and a rather small usable volume relative to the external dimensions are achieved. The use of such charge carriers is limited to applications with only low mechanical and thermal loads.
  • the outer wall can have a wall reinforcement profile on its upper edge, the upper side of which forms the support surface for the support of a stacked, adjacent packaging.
  • the wall reinforcement profile can be designed as a profile that can be plugged onto the top edge of the outer wall and preferably has an approximately U-shaped cross section.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to create containers of the type mentioned at the outset which have high mechanical stability and resilience, which can have side walls with a certain flexibility to protect the goods in the container and which allow loaded containers to be stacked securely on top of one another guarantee.
  • a first solution to the problem is achieved according to the invention with a container of the type mentioned at the outset, the upper edge region of at least two opposite side walls being reinforced by at least one reinforcement profile attached to the rest of the side wall in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner, and that the/each reinforcement profile is/are attached to its edge by the container pointing away upper side has at least one running in the longitudinal direction of the reinforcement profile, forming a slideway for a further container to be placed profile web.
  • the invention advantageously creates the possibility of reinforcing two or more side walls of the container with a reinforcing profile, the material of which can be selected independently of the material of the side wall itself. In this way, a particularly large reinforcing effect can be achieved with an appropriate choice of material for the reinforcing profiles.
  • the side walls of the container which are particularly stressed when containers are stacked one on top of the other, can be stabilized with relatively little technical effort in such a way that buckling of the upper edge of loaded containers in the container stack can be ruled out with normal stacking heights and loads.
  • the side walls can advantageously have a certain resilience that protects the goods in the container.
  • the/each reinforcement profile has on its upper side facing away from the container at least one profile web running in the longitudinal direction of the reinforcement profile and forming a slideway for another container to be placed on. It is therefore sufficient to first place an upper container on a lower container with only a partial overlap, and then to place the upper container to move along the slideway of the lower container to its final stacking position.
  • the stacking contour of the/each side wall having a reinforcement profile is formed on the upper side of the reinforcement profile.
  • the stacking contour is particularly stable and wear-resistant, which contributes to the long-term durability of the container.
  • the stacking contour of the/each side wall having a reinforcement profile is formed separately from the reinforcement profile on the upper side at the upper edge of the side wall.
  • the reinforcing profile is attached to the rest of the side wall with a positive and/or non-positive fit.
  • the/each reinforcement profile has a downwardly open groove or a downwardly pointing web in a lower area facing the side wall, that on the upper edge of the remaining side wall an upwardly pointing web or an upwardly open groove is formed and that the reinforcing profile is latched or clamped or pushed or welded or glued on with its groove onto the web of the side wall or latched or clamped or pushed or welded or glued with its web into the groove of the side wall.
  • the reinforcement profile is thus connected to the associated side wall from above during the manufacture of the container.
  • the / each reinforcement profile in a lateral area facing the side wall has a groove open to the side or a web pointing to the side, that at the upper edge of the remaining side wall a web pointing to the side or a web open to the side Groove is formed and that the reinforcing profile is snapped or clamped or pushed or welded or glued on with its groove on the web of the side wall or snapped or clamped or pushed or welded or glued with its web into the groove of the side wall.
  • the reinforcement profile to the associated side wall from the side, ie in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the wall.
  • latching elements be formed on the side wall and on the associated reinforcing profile. These latching elements engage with one another when the reinforcing profile is attached to the rest of the side wall, so that the reinforcing profile cannot automatically detach from the side wall, but non-destructive removal or replacement of the reinforcing profile, if desired, remains possible.
  • a second solution to the above problem is achieved according to the invention with a container of the type mentioned at the outset, which is characterized in that the upper edge region of at least two opposite side walls is reinforced by at least one reinforcement profile each arranged in or on the side wall and running in the longitudinal direction of the side wall and that the/each reinforcement profile is offset relative to the stacking contour towards the bottom.
  • the reinforcement profile only has the function of reinforcement and can therefore be optimized for this purpose without restrictions.
  • a preferred further development of the container according to the second solution provides that the upper edge region of at least two opposite side walls is each formed with at least one slideway running in the longitudinal direction of the side wall separately from the reinforcement profile for another container to be placed on. This ensures that the second container can also be stacked one on top of the other in an ergonomically particularly favorable manner for handling personnel.
  • the/each side wall having a reinforcement profile is a two-component or multi-component injection molded part which is produced by successively injecting at least two different plastics into a side wall or container injection mold, with one plastic for the reinforcement profile being a reinforced plastic and a plastic for the remainder of the sidewall or container is unreinforced plastic.
  • the container can be produced inexpensively as a mass-produced part.
  • each side wall having a reinforcement profile can be reinforced by inserting a reinforcement profile formed by a reinforced, prefabricated component into a side wall or container injection mold and then injecting an unreinforced plastic forming the remaining side wall or the remaining container into the side wall or Container injection mold is generated.
  • This refinement also permits cost-effective mass production.
  • the invention further proposes that the reinforcement profile be unfused with the plastic of the side wall in or on the/each side wall having a reinforcement profile and is displaceable within small limits relative to the rest of the side wall.
  • the/each reinforcement profile can be latched or clamped or pushed together or welded or glued to the associated side wall.
  • the container that the upper edge region of two opposite, longer side walls is reinforced by a reinforcing profile that runs continuously over the length of the associated side wall. This effectively counteracts the naturally greater risk of bulging with the longer side walls.
  • the container can also be designed in such a way that the upper edge area of all side walls is reinforced by a reinforcing profile that runs continuously over the length of the associated side wall.
  • the vertical force dissipation in the container stack takes place predominantly via the corner regions of the stacked containers, then it is expedient that the upper edge region of end sections of two container corners adjacent side walls is reinforced by a reinforcing profile running across the corner.
  • a particularly large reinforcement effect can be achieved if the upper edge area of all side walls is reinforced by a single frame-shaped, circumferential reinforcement profile.
  • the side walls themselves or the container itself can therefore be made from a relatively inexpensive material, in particular as injection molded parts.
  • the reinforcement profiles can be manufactured from a more stable material.
  • the fibre-reinforced plastic is preferably reinforced with glass, carbon or natural fibres, from which the reinforcement profile can likewise advantageously be produced by injection molding.
  • the invention also provides that sections of the stacking contour of the base located below the side walls having the slideways are each designed with a groove, so that the slideways and grooves are each formed in such a way that when an upper container is placed on on a lower container in a position that is offset relative to one another in the longitudinal direction of the slideways and grooves, the upper container stands up in a raised position and can be moved on the slideways of the lower container and that during or after the upper container has been moved into a position congruent with the lower container Enter slideways under lowering of the upper container in a stack end position in the grooves.
  • the container in this configuration offers several advantages.
  • an upper container to be placed on a lower container with the containers offset relative to one another and the upper container then to be moved onto the lower container into the congruent stacking position, which in particular makes it possible to manually stack the containers, especially when they are loaded handling personnel easier.
  • the upper container When the upper container is pushed onto the container arranged underneath, the upper container initially slides in an elevated position on the slideways of the lower container and only lowers into its end-of-stack position at the end of the displacement process.
  • a higher or larger gap between the two is advantageous when sliding Containers, specifically between the transported goods, such as fruits, in the lower container on the one hand and the underside of the bottom of the upper container on the other hand. In this way, sensitive goods in the lower container, especially fruit that protrude slightly beyond the edge of the container, are not damaged by rubbing or scratching.
  • the slideways are preferably designed in each case as a vertically aligned, continuous or interrupted web.
  • each sliding track is stepped or beveled or rounded at its end areas.
  • slideways on two long side walls are useful for the practical use of the containers.
  • slideways can be provided on two short side walls.
  • the two side walls not having the slideways have one or more spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction of these side walls on the upper side, a conventional container placed on a container according to the invention against displacement in Longitudinally have the slideways securing hump, the height of which corresponds to the height of the slideways.
  • the containers according to the invention may be rigid containers with the side walls integral or fixed to the base, or they may be collapsible containers with the side walls hinged to the base.
  • the figure 1 shows a container 1 with a base 2, with two opposing first, longer side walls 3 and with two opposing second, shorter side walls 4, viewed obliquely from above.
  • the container 1 is designed here as a collapsible container, in which the side walls 3, 4 are hinged to the base 2 so that they are between the in figure 1 shown, erected position of use and a rest position in which the four side walls 3, 4 are folded inwardly onto the floor 2, is adjustable.
  • the side walls 3, 4 are each provided in a manner known per se with a handle opening 31, 41 and with releasable locking means 43 for mutually locking the side walls 3, 4 in their position of use.
  • the bottom 2 and the side walls 3, 4 are here injection molded parts made of a thermoplastic material, with at least the side walls 3 having flexible wall areas 33 with a certain resilience in order to protect the goods stored or transported in the container 1.
  • a reinforcement profile 5 is attached to each of the two opposite, longer side walls 3 attached in a form-fitting manner, locked here.
  • the reinforcement profiles 5 are made of a material, in particular fiber-reinforced plastic or metal, which is more stable than the material from which the side walls 3 are made, usually an unreinforced plastic.
  • the reinforcement profiles 5 thus ensure that the side walls 3 have a particularly high level of stability in their upper edge region, as a result of which undesired exploitation of the upper edge of the side walls 3 in a container stack is avoided.
  • each reinforcement profile 5 has an upward-pointing profile web 50 running in the longitudinal direction of the reinforcement profile 5 and the associated side wall 3.
  • the profile webs 50 form a slideway 11 on their upper side, on which an upper container 1 on a lower container 1 after only a partial covering placement can be easily moved to its final stacking position.
  • the end regions 12 of the slideway 11 are beveled in order to move the upper container 1 in a higher position relative to the lower container 1 and to lower the upper container 1 only immediately before or when the congruent position of the upper container 1 relative to the lower container 1 is reached. As a result, the material in the lower container 1 is protected against damage caused by the upper container 1 being pushed open.
  • two projecting humps 44 are formed at a distance from one another on the upper edge of the shorter side walls 4 formed by the upper stacking contour 40. These humps 44 block a conventional container placed on the container 1 against unintentional displacement along the slideways 11 beyond a congruent stacking position relative to the container 1 arranged below.
  • figure 2 shows container 1 figure 1 in a front view of one of the longer side walls 3 with the reinforcement profile 5 attached to it. Below in figure 2 the bottom 2 with its stacking contour 20 is visible.
  • the reinforcement profile 5 is connected to the side wall 3 at the upper edge of the side wall 3 .
  • Below a middle section of the reinforcement profile 5 is the handle opening 31 in the side wall 3.
  • a middle surface area of the side wall 3 bordered by the four edge areas of the side wall 3 forms the flexible wall area 33, which has a certain resilience.
  • figure 3 shows one of the longer side walls 3 and a reinforcement profile 5 not yet attached to it, in a view obliquely from above.
  • the side wall 3 has an upwardly pointing web 35 on its upper edge, on which latching elements 34 in the form of latching lugs projecting from the surface of the web are formed at regular intervals.
  • the shown above the side wall 3, not connected to this reinforcement profile 5 has on its underside a groove 53, with which the reinforcement profile 5 in the vertical direction from top to bottom on the web 35 can be plugged in a form-fitting manner.
  • latching elements 54 in the form of latching openings arranged in the correct position in the reinforcement profile 5, the locking profile 5 is reliably latched, but releasably if necessary, to the latching elements 34 on the side wall 3, as a result of which the desired reinforcement and stiffening of the upper edge region of the side wall 3 is achieved.
  • hinges 32 visible, with which the side wall 3 is articulated to the bottom 2 of the container 1, not shown here, connected in a known manner.
  • figure 4 shows part of the longer side wall 3 and the reinforcement profile 5 now connected to it figure 3 in an enlarged detail view. Left below in figure 4 part of the side wall 3 with the handle opening 31 is visible. The reinforcement profile 5 runs over this.
  • One of the pairs of locking elements 34, 54 can be seen on the right above the handle opening 31, the locking element 34 of the side wall 3 having the shape of a locking lug, which engages in the latching element 54 of the reinforcement profile 5 designed as a latching opening.
  • the reinforcement profile 5 has on its side facing the inside of the container several parallel lateral profile wings 51, which make the reinforcement profile 5 particularly rigid with relatively little use of material.
  • figure 5 shows part of the longer side wall 3 and the reinforcement profile 5 connected to it in an enlarged representation, partly in elevation and partly in a first vertical section.
  • Lying section surface can be seen how the reinforcing profile 5 is placed with its groove 53 on the web 35 on the upper edge of the side wall 3 in a form-fitting manner.
  • the reinforcing profile 5 also has lateral profile wings 51 running parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction of the reinforcing profile 5 for effective reinforcement on its surface facing away from the observer and pointing towards the inside of the container.
  • figure 6 shows part of the longer side wall 3 and the reinforcement profile 5 connected to it in an enlarged representation, partly in elevation and partly in a second vertical section.
  • the section here runs through one of the pairs of latching elements 34, 54, so that their interaction can be seen particularly clearly here.
  • figure 7 shows a container 1, each with a reinforcement profile 5 on two opposite, longer side walls 3, in view of a shorter side wall 4. Left and right in figure 7 is therefore one of the two longer side walls 3. Below in figure 7 lies the floor 2 with its underside stacking contour 20.
  • the container 1 On the upper side, the container 1 has the stacking contour 40 forming the upper edge of the shorter side wall 4 facing the viewer. At a distance from the top edge A grip opening 41 is offset downwards in the transverse center of the side wall 4. Above the grip opening 41, parallel to the surface of the side wall 42, are two spring-loaded locking means 43 that can be displaced in the horizontal direction. On the upper edge of the side wall 4 there are two spaced-apart humps 44 that protrude upwards formed, which serve to secure a conventional container placed on the container 1 with the same base area dimensions in its congruent stacking position relative to the container 1 and to block a displacement of the upper, conventional container along the slideways 11 from the congruent stacking position.
  • the stacking contours 30 are each formed here by one of the reinforcement profiles 5 snapped onto the top of the remaining side wall 3 and each having a profile web 50 running in the longitudinal direction on the upper side, the upper side of which forms a slideway 11 in each case.
  • the bottom 2 has at its in figure 7 left and right longitudinal sides perpendicular to the plane of the drawing, downwardly open grooves 21 which are arranged congruently with the profile webs 50 . If an identical further container 1 is initially placed on the container 1 with an offset in the longitudinal direction of the slideways 11, the upper container 1 can, by means of its grooves 21, be placed on the slideways 11 of the lower container 1 in an elevated position during the displacement up to a position with the lower container 1 congruent stack end position are shifted, in which then the upper container 1 relative to the lower container 1 by interaction of the correspondingly designed slideways 11 and grooves 21 in its final stack position decreases.
  • figure 8 shows a further container 1, each with a reinforcement profile 5 on two opposite, longer side walls 3, viewed obliquely from above.
  • the reinforcement profiles 5 are designed as inserts, which are inserted into an injection mold as prefabricated parts during the manufacture of the container 1 or its side walls 3, in which the rest of the side wall is then injected, as a result of which the reinforcement profiles 5 are securely connected to the respective rest of the side wall 3 become.
  • the slideways 11 on the upper side of the stacking contours 30 of the longer side walls 3 are not part of the reinforcing profiles 5 here, but part of the remaining side walls 3 and are each formed on the upper side of a web 35 integral with the side wall 3 .
  • figure 9 shows one of the longer side walls 3 of the container figure 8 and separately an associated reinforcement profile 5, in a view obliquely from above.
  • the reinforcing profile 5 has two longitudinal webs 55 running parallel to one another and in the longitudinal direction of the reinforcing profile 5, as well as several transverse webs 56 connecting these to one another and spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction.
  • the plastic material of the remaining side wall 3 surrounds the transverse webs 56 of the reinforcing profile 5, whereby this is securely connected to the rest of the side wall 3.
  • figure 10 shows the side wall figure 9 with the associated reinforcement profile 5, again in a view obliquely from above.
  • the reinforcement profile 5 runs below the slideway 11 and forms part of the stacking contour 30 with its upper side together with the upper edge of the side wall 3 .
  • figure 11 shows one of the longer side walls 3 of another container 1 and a reinforcing profile 5 not yet connected to it, in a view obliquely from above.
  • the reinforcing profile 5 can be locked to the rest of the side wall by being inserted in the direction from top to bottom, for which purpose the side wall 3 has locking elements 34 and the reinforcing profile 5 has locking elements 54 which interact therewith.
  • the reinforcing profile 5 has a downward-pointing guide pin 57 here, which is close to each in a corresponding receptacle Side edges of the side wall 3 can be accommodated.
  • the guide pins 57 prevent tilting of the reinforcing profile 5, which here again has an upward-pointing profile web 50 with the upper slideway 11, on which, when containers 1 are stacked, the weight of the respective upper container is applied when it is pushed into the congruent stacking position.
  • figure 12 shows the side wall 3 figure 11 with associated reinforcement profile 5, also in a view obliquely from above.
  • the latching elements 34 of the side wall 3 and the latching elements 54 of the reinforcement profile 5 are now in latching engagement with one another and secure the reinforcement profile 5 in its mounting position on the side wall 3.
  • the profile web 50 running in the longitudinal direction of the reinforcement profile 5 protrudes upwards, the upper side of which is the slideway 11 forms with its beveled downwardly extending end regions 12.
  • figure 13 finally shows one of the longer side walls 3 of another container 1 and a reinforcing profile 5 connected thereto, in a view obliquely from above.
  • the reinforcement profile 5 is welded to the rest of the side wall 3 or that the side wall 3 including the reinforcement profile 5 is produced as a two-component injection molded part.
  • the reinforcing profile 5 is connected to the rest of the side wall 3 in a particularly strong and durable manner.
  • the slideway 11 is formed here on the upper side of a web 35 of the stacking contour 30 of the side wall 3, i.e. not part of the reinforcement profile 5 in this exemplary embodiment.
