Definitions
- Container system for liquid consumables with interchangeable replacement containers
- the invention relates to a container system for receiving and dispensing dispensing of liquid consumables such as cosmetic articles.
- the container system consists of a main container, which can be connected to a pump device serving to dose the consumables and can be combined with replacement containers made of material-saving, weight-optimizing and / or completely recyclable materials, in particular renewable raw materials.
- Cosmetic articles offered on the market such as soap, bath additives or shower gel are mainly housed in containers made of plastic or glass.
- these containers In addition to the shape, which is very appealing in terms of shape, these containers often also have a pump device which is used for dosing and can be easily operated by the consumer by finger pressure. After use, these plastic containers, along with other plastic waste, also find their way into the environment to a considerable extent in an uncontrolled manner and represent an ever-increasing global problem.
- beverage cartons represent an advantageous alternative to conventional containers made of plastic or glass.
- the beverage cartons also known as composite packaging, are used for liquid or viscous contents. In particular, they serve as packaging for food, e.g. for milk or fruit juice.
- Such packaging is on the market under the well-known name Tetra Pak.
- Tetra Pak Often an opening with a cylinder-shaped outwardly protruding part is made on the top of the packaging.
- This packaging is suitable for "pouring out” the filling goods. In contrast to plastic or glass containers, these packages take up less space when folded.
- these Tetra Pak containers Due to their standardized size, these Tetra Pak containers can also be stacked easily and thus offer efficient logistical advantages. Furthermore, the empty packaging can advantageously be delivered to the filling plant in the form of a roll before filling. Material recycling of the emptied packaging is ensured by established disposal companies.
- the beverage cartons are currently also disposable packaging. However, the well-known Tetra Pak containers and stand-up pouches are the most ecologically sound solutions. The use of these beverage cartons for cosmetic articles is, however, opposed to the mainly possible “pouring function”.
- the object of the invention is therefore to create a container system with interchangeable containers that enables environmentally friendly storage and metering of the liquid consumables and provides the use of stand-up pouches as a replacement container through a possible problem-free connection between the stand-up pouch and the pumping device.
- replaceable replacement containers are used to hold consumables such as cosmetic items made of recyclable materials or other material-saving and / or weight-optimizing renewable raw materials.
- these replacement containers represent an environmentally friendly alternative, which also has a cost-reducing effect on logistics and the manufacturing price.
- the containers which are preferably made of cardboard or completely recyclable materials, are connected to metering pumps.
- the advantages of easy operation when removing the cosmetic articles are efficiently combined with an environmentally friendly and inexpensive design of the container.
- the interchangeable containers are alternatively accommodated in stationary receiving devices.
- the containers serve as so-called refill packs. It has proven to be beneficial if the conventional containers in their traditional design are separated into two parts that can be joined together. The upper part is connected to the metering pump in a conventional manner.
- the lid is placed on the basic container and then the
- Dosing pump screwed on The interchangeable container is placed in the interior of the joined parts.
- the dosing pump is inserted into the opening of the container.
- Stand-up pouches are preferably used as refill containers. After the stand-up pouches have been inserted into the interior of the main container, they can be rotated around their longitudinal axis due to their flexible nature. The torque generated during the process of screwing the dosing pump onto the stand-up pouch is transferred to the stand-up pouch and rotates it around its longitudinal axis.
- Fig. 1 the schematic representation of the assemblies of the container system
- Fig. 2 the schematic representation of the assembled container system with stand-up pouch
- Fig. 3 the fixation by means of cylindrical fixation elements
- Fig. 7 the fixation by means of curved elevations around the outlet opening of the container lid
- Fig. 12 the schematic representation of the container with a recess in the container bottom.
- FIG. 1 The schematic representation of Figure 1 shows the assemblies of the container system. It consists of the main container 1, the container lid 5 and the metering pump 3.
- the assembled container system with a generally known stand-up pouch 2 as a refill pack is shown in FIG.
- the stand-up pouch 2 is after his Emptying recycled in an environmentally friendly way.
- the external optical design of the container in this variant is identical to that of the original container. In this way, the visually pleasing design of the original container is retained.
- the metering pump 3 shown schematically in FIG. 2 is connected to the container cover 5 in a fixed or screwable manner. After the stand-up pouch 2 has been inserted into the interior of the main container 1, it can be rotated about its longitudinal axis due to its flexible nature.
- the pouring mold (spout) connected to the stand-up pouch 2 at the upper end is, as shown in FIG.
- four elevations 7 are made on the edge of the outlet opening 6.
- the upper part of the stand-up pouch 2 is inserted between the elevations 7 made on the underside of the container lid 5. This is done by placing the container lid 5 on the stand-up pouch 2.
- the schematic sectional view of FIG Prevent the stand-up pouch 2 from being screwed to the dosing pump 3.
- the elevations 7 can also be arranged on the weld-in surface of the spout 4 facing the outlet opening and engage in openings or depressions in the container lid.
- the outlet opening 6 of the container lid 5 is shown. This serves to fix the stand-up pouch 2, which is also provided with a matching molded body 13.
- the schematic sectional view in FIG. 6 shows the stand-up pouch 2 after it has been inserted into the container lid 5
- the pouring mold (spout) of the stand-up pouch 2 is screwed.
- FIG. 7 Another variant of the fixation of the inserted stand-up pouch 2 is shown in FIG. 7.
- Two semicircular elevations 7 arranged on the underside of the container lid 5 serve as fixing elements 2 leave. After the container lid 5 has been put on, the stand-up pouch 2 is then fixed between the two elevations 7. This fixed state with the screwed-on metering pump 3 is shown in FIG.
- the outlet opening 6 is designed in such a way that the stand-up pouch 2 inserted into the outlet opening 6 is fixed in the container lid 5 in a form-fitting manner.
- FIG. 11 shows the formation of a spout 4 with a shaped body 13 used for fixation.
- the molded body 13 is arranged above the weld-in surface 11 of the stand-up pouch 2.
- the connecting part of the spout 4 located at the top has a thread 12 which is used for screwing to the metering pump 3.
- FIG. 12 shows the design of the container with a recess 9 made in the container bottom 10.
- This recess 9 serves as a collection point for the remaining stocks of consumables.
