Abstract

Stackable can comprising at its top a handle and at its bottom a housing located in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the handle in such a way as to allow superimposition with a relative angular position of 90 DEG , characterised in that the handle is in two sections 6a, 6b separated by a gap 7 and the housing 8 comprises a partition 10 intended to lodge in the gap 7 of the handle of the can 1 placed below.

Description

L' invention concerne un bidon avec des caractéristiques de gerbage ameliorees.  The invention relates to a can with improved stacking characteristics.

On connait des bidons gerbables comportant sur leur partie superieure plane une poignée et un goulot situé dans son prolongement et à leur partie inférieure un logement dans un plan perpendiculaire au plan de la poignée, et aux extremites éiargies. La poignee vient ainsi se loger dans le logement et le goulot avec son bouchon dans l'une ou l'autre des extrémites élargies, lorsqu'on empile des bidons avec croisement à 90'. Stackable containers are known having on their upper flat part a handle and a neck located in its extension and at their lower part a housing in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the handle, and at the widened ends. The handle is thus housed in the housing and the neck with its cap in one or other of the extended ends, when stacking cans with cross 90 '.

Hais les piles obtenues manquent de stabilité.But the resulting batteries lack stability.

L'invention fournit donc un bidon gerbable dont la poignée est en deux parties séparées par un espace et dont le logement de la partie inférieure comporte une cloison destinée à venir se loger dans l'espace ménagé dans la poignée du bidon place en dessous. The invention thus provides a stackable container whose handle is in two parts separated by a space and whose housing of the lower part comprises a partition intended to be housed in the space in the handle of the can located below.

De préférence, l'espace ménagé dans la poignée et la cloison sont centrés par rapport aux faces inférieure et superieure du bidon. Preferably, the space in the handle and the partition are centered relative to the lower and upper faces of the can.

De preference encore, les deux parties de la poignée sont inégales, la partie avant plus petite étant destinée à loger l'index de l'utilisateur. More preferably, the two parts of the handle are unequal, the smaller front part being intended to house the index of the user.

L'invention va maintenant étre décrite en référence aux dessins annexés qui représentent a titre purement illustratif un bidon de forme particulière et dans lesquels
la figure 1 est une vue de côté d'un bidon selon l'invention,
la figure z est une vue de dessus du bidon,
la figure 3 est une vue de dessous du bidon.
The invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, which represent, for purely illustrative purposes, a can of particular shape and in which
FIG. 1 is a side view of a can according to the invention,
FIG. z is a view from above of the can,
Figure 3 is a bottom view of the container.

Le bidon represente sur les figures a une forme particuliere mais il est bien entendu que l'invention n'est pas limitee aux seuls bidons de cette forme et s'applique a tout modèle de bidon de surfaces inferieure et supérieure sensiblement planes. La description qui suit sera faite essentiellement en se rapportant a cette forme particulière mais les modifications à apporter en fonction de la forme adoptee seront indiquées ou évidentes. The can shown in the figures has a particular shape but it is understood that the invention is not limited to the only cans of this form and applies to any bottle model of lower surfaces and substantially planar surfaces. The description which follows will be made essentially in reference to this particular form, but the modifications to be made according to the form adopted will be indicated or obvious.

Le bidon 1 comporte une face supérieure 2 et une face inférieure 3 ayant la forme d'un octogone régulier, les deux faces 2 et 3 sensiblement planes étant réunies par une paroi verticale 4 å quatre grands pans et quatre petits pans, les raccordements avec les faces planes se faisant par exemple à pans coupés. The can 1 has an upper face 2 and a lower face 3 having the shape of a regular octagon, the two substantially planar faces 2 and 3 being joined by a vertical wall 4 to four large faces and four small faces, the connections with the planar faces being made for example with cut sides.

La partie supérieure 2 comporte un orifice formant goulot 5 sur lequel vient se fixer un bouchon d'un type couvercle. Le goulot est ici place dans le prolongement d'un petit pan de la paroi verticale mais il pourrait entre placé selon une arête d'un bidon de forme cubique, au centre d'un pan de paroi quelconque, etc. Divers types de bouchon, à vis, à capsule, à dispositif d'inviolabilité,... peuvent être envisagés et conditionnent la structure extérieure du goulot 5 qui n'est pas limite à celle des figures 1 et 2.  The upper part 2 comprises a neck opening 5 on which is fixed a plug of a lid type. The neck is here placed in the extension of a small part of the vertical wall but it could between placed on a ridge of a cubic can, in the center of any wall, etc. Various types of plug, screw, capsule, tamper device, ... can be envisaged and condition the outer structure of the neck 5 which is not limited to that of Figures 1 and 2.

La poignée est en deux parties a et 6b inégales séparées par un espace 7, qui peut prendre la forme d'un V dont la largeur va de quelques mm à environ lcm par exemple. Afin de faciliter l'usage du bidon, le goulot 5 est situé dans l'axe de la poignée. The handle is in two parts a and 6b unequal separated by a space 7, which can take the form of a V whose width ranges from a few mm to about 1cm for example. To facilitate the use of the can, the neck 5 is located in the axis of the handle.

La partie ôa de la poignée constituant la partie avant est de taille réduite car elle ne sert qu'a loger l'index de l'utilisateur tandis que la partie db loge trois doigts, le pouce venant se placer sur le dessus de la partie a
La face inférieure 3 comporte dans ie plan perpendiculaire au plan de la poignée un logement 8 dont la forme générale est celle d'un U légèrement évasé dans lequel viendra se placer la poignée du bidon inférieur de la pile. Les deux extrémités du logement comportent des parties biar$t~ 4 de di otlb convenables pour recevoir le goulot 5 et son bouchon.Une cloison 10 divise le logement 8 et vient se loger dans l'espace 7 de la poignee du bidon inferieur, en assurant ainsi le blocage des deux bidons l'un par rapport a l'autre.
Part 6a of the handle constituting the front part is of reduced size because it serves only to house the index of the user while the part db houses three fingers, the thumb being placed on top of the part a
The lower face 3 has in the plane perpendicular to the plane of the handle a housing 8 whose general shape is that of a slightly flared U in which will be placed the handle of the lower drum of the stack. The two ends of the housing comprise portions biar $ t ~ 4 of di otlb suitable for receiving the neck 5 and cap.A partition 10 divides the housing 8 and is housed in the space 7 of the handle of the lower can, in thus ensuring the locking of the two drums with respect to each other.

Pour ameliorer ce blocage, il est preférable de centrer l'espace 7 et la cloison 10 par rapport aux faces 2 et 3, comme représente sur les figure. To improve this blocking, it is preferable to center the space 7 and the partition 10 with respect to the faces 2 and 3, as shown in the figures.

Lors de l'empilement de bidons avec croisement a 90', la cloison 10 s'imbrique dans l'espace 7 de la poignée du bidon situé en dessous dans la pile, et empêche le bidon supérieur de glisser latéralement par rapport au bidon inférieur. Ceci confère à la pile une grande stabilité. En outre la cloison 10 confère au bidon une grande rigidité évitant toute déformation ou ecrasement partiel de la pile constituée. Il en résulte une plus grande sécurité dans les magasins de vente et une meilleure présentation. When stacking cans with a 90 'cross, the partition 10 fits into the space 7 of the can handle located below in the stack, and prevents the upper can slide laterally relative to the lower can. This gives the stack a great stability. In addition the partition 10 gives the can a high rigidity avoiding any distortion or partial crushing of the stack formed. This results in greater security in the stores and a better presentation.

On peut bien entendu réaliser des bidons de diverses contenances, 2, 5 ou 10 litres par exemple, pour divers produits liquides, comestibles ou non < eau, vin, huile de table, produits ménagers, produits industriels, etc.). It is of course possible to make cans of various capacities, 2, 5 or 10 liters for example, for various liquid products, edible or non-water, wine, table oil, household products, industrial products, etc.).

Des zones de marquage sont prévues sur la face inférieure à divers emplacements 11,12 < figure 3) ainsi qu'éventuellement sur les flans verticaux comme représenté en traits interrompus 13 sur la figure 1. Marking areas are provided on the underside at various locations 11, 12 (FIG. 3) as well as optionally on the vertical blanks as shown in broken lines 13 in FIG.

La forme du bidon peut être cubique et dans ce cas la poignée et le goulot occuperont une diagonale de la face carrée supérieure tandis que le logement occupera l'autre diagonale de la face inférieure; ou encore cylindrique, la poignée et le logement étant alors disposés selon des diamètres perpendiculaires. D'autres formes pourraient également être envisagées, a condition de placer dans des plans perpendiculaires ia poignée et le logement.  The shape of the can can be cubic and in this case the handle and the neck will occupy a diagonal of the upper square face while the housing will occupy the other diagonal of the lower face; or cylindrical, the handle and the housing being then arranged in perpendicular diameters. Other forms could also be envisaged, provided that the handles and the housing are placed in perpendicular planes.
