Abstract

A transport box (1) for handling fresh food such as meat, fish, vegetables or the like, comprises a bottom section (2), sidewalls (3, 4, 5, 6) and possibly a lid. The interior side of the bottom is provided with draining means (9) for draining liquid such as serum or the like that exudes from the food. The draining means comprise recesses or pits (8) arranged in the bottom section extending from the corners and along the sides of the box. At the underside of the bottom section, the recesses form projections or beads (11) that serve as supporting and guiding means when stacking the box on top of another. Additionally, this arrangement serve as reinforcement of the bottom section. Alternatively, the recesses may be interconnected with passages (10), or extend continuously along the sides of the box forming one sole recess.

Description

Foreliggende oppfinnelse vedrører en anordning ved en kasse for transport av ferskvare såsom kjøtt, fisk, grønnsaker eller lignende innbefattende en bunn og sidevegger, eventuelt innbefattet et lokk, hvor det innvendig i bunnen er anordnet dreneringskanaler for drenering av væske såsom blodvann e.l. som utsondres fra ferskvaren. The present invention relates to a device for a box for the transport of fresh produce such as meat, fish, vegetables or the like including a bottom and side walls, possibly including a lid, where drainage channels are arranged inside the bottom for draining liquid such as blood water etc. which is secreted from the fresh produce.

Det er tidligere kjent kasser for transport av fisk hvor isvann og blodvæske fra fisken dreneres ut av kassen via gjennomgående hull i hjørnene mellom veggen og bunnen i kassene. Med en slik løsning vil omgivelsene der kassene er plassert eller lagret bli forurenset av dreneringsvæsken fra kassene. There are previously known boxes for the transport of fish where ice water and blood fluid from the fish are drained out of the box via through holes in the corners between the wall and the bottom of the boxes. With such a solution, the surroundings where the boxes are placed or stored will be contaminated by the drainage liquid from the boxes.

Det er videre kjent å anordne en duk eller lignende i bunnen av en transportkasse eller lignende emballasje der duken er innrettet til å absorbere væske som avsondres fra ferskvaren. Anvendelse av en slik duk representerer en mer kostbar løsning på grunn av merarbeidet med å legge inn og ta ut duken, samt at duken i seg selv utgjør en merutgift. Denne løsningen er for øvrig ikke hygienisk tilfredsstillende i alle sammenhenger. It is also known to arrange a cloth or the like at the bottom of a transport box or similar packaging where the cloth is arranged to absorb liquid that is secreted from the fresh produce. The use of such a cloth represents a more expensive solution due to the additional work involved in inserting and removing the cloth, as well as the fact that the cloth itself constitutes an additional expense. Furthermore, this solution is not hygienically satisfactory in all contexts.

I søkerens eget norske patent nr. 162.335 er det vist en ytterligere kjent løsning der væske fra ferskvare som transporteres i en kasse er innrettet til å samles opp i hulrommet i kassens dobbeltbunn. In the applicant's own Norwegian patent no. 162,335, a further known solution is shown where liquid from fresh produce transported in a box is arranged to be collected in the cavity in the double bottom of the box.

Med denne kassen unngås forurensning av omgivelsene ved at væsken samles opp i dobbeltbunnen, men kassen egner seg ikke til gjenbruk da det er vanskelig å vaske eller rengjøre dobbeltbunnen innvendig (hulrommet). With this box, pollution of the surroundings is avoided by the liquid being collected in the double bottom, but the box is not suitable for reuse as it is difficult to wash or clean the inside of the double bottom (the cavity).

Med foreliggende oppfinnelse er det kommet frem til en kasse for transport av ferskvare hvor væske som avsondres fra ferskvaren er innrettet til å samles opp, men som samtidig er enkel å rengjøre og dermed hygienisk å anvende. Kassen er videre robust, er god og sikker å stable, er rimelig å fremstille og egner seg meget godt til gjenbruk. With the present invention, a box has been arrived at for the transport of fresh produce in which liquid secreted from the fresh produce is arranged to be collected, but which is at the same time easy to clean and thus hygienic to use. The box is also robust, is good and safe to stack, is inexpensive to manufacture and is very suitable for reuse.

Oppfinnelsen er karakterisert ved groper eller fordypninger som strekker seg fra hjørnene og langs sidene, idet fordypningene danner utspring på undersiden av bunnen som tjener som styreinnretninger ved stabling av kassen oppå en annen, og samtidig representerer en forsterkning av bunnkonstruksjonen, som angitt i vedføyde krav 1. The invention is characterized by pits or depressions that extend from the corners and along the sides, the depressions forming protrusions on the underside of the bottom which serve as control devices when stacking the box on top of another, and at the same time represent a reinforcement of the bottom construction, as stated in the attached claim 1 .

De uselvstendige kravene 2-4 definerer fordelaktige trekk ved oppfinnelsen. The independent claims 2-4 define advantageous features of the invention.

Oppfinnelsen skal i det etterfølgende beskrives nærmere ved hjelp av eksempel og under henvisning til tegningsfigurene hvor: Fig. 1 viser, sett ovenfra, et utfoldet materialemne som kassen i henhold til oppfinnelsen In what follows, the invention will be described in more detail by means of an example and with reference to the drawings where: Fig. 1 shows, viewed from above, an unfolded blank as the box according to the invention

er dannet av. is formed by.

Fig. 2 viser en kasse dannet av materialemnet vist i Fig. 1, sett i perspektiv mot det ene Fig. 2 shows a box formed by the blank shown in Fig. 1, seen in perspective towards one

hjørnet, delvis ovenfra. corner, partly from above.

Fig. 3 viser den samme kassen sett i perspektiv nedenfra. Fig. 3 shows the same box seen in perspective from below.

Fortrinnsvis kan kassen i henhold til oppfinnelsen være av en sammenleggbar type av termoplast som egner seg spesielt godt til gjenbruk. En slik kasse er nærmere vist og beskrevet i søkerens norske patent nr. 172283. Fig. 1 viser et utfoldet materialemne 1 av en slik kasse, innbefattende en bunn 2 og sider 3,4,5,6 som er leddbart forbundet med bunnen. I bunnen, innvendig i kassen er det anordnet dreneringskanaler 9 som munner ut i fordypninger eller groper 8 som er avrundet ved hjørnene av kassen og strekker seg utover langs sidene. Det er også anordnet kanaler 10 mellom fordypningene 8 slik at væske kan strømme fritt mellom disse. Derved sikres at alle fordypningene vil kunne fylles opp med væske for å sikre maksimal væskeoppsamlingskapasitet. Eventuelt, istedenfor kanalforbindelser 10 mellom separat anordnete fordypninger 8 som vist i Fig. 1, kan det være anordnet en sammenhengende fordypning rundt hele kassen ved sidene (ikke nærmere vist). Avhengig av bruksområde, vil fordypningen(e) kunne romme et volum tilsvarende fra 2-5% av kassens volum. F.eks. til transport av kjøtt, vil en kasse på ca. 40 liter kunne være forsynt med fordypninger som rommer fra 1 til 1,5 liter væske. Preferably, the box according to the invention can be of a collapsible type of thermoplastic which is particularly suitable for reuse. Such a box is shown and described in more detail in the applicant's Norwegian patent no. 172283. Fig. 1 shows an unfolded material blank 1 of such a box, including a bottom 2 and sides 3, 4, 5, 6 which are hingedly connected to the bottom. At the bottom, inside the box, drainage channels 9 are arranged which open into depressions or pits 8 which are rounded at the corners of the box and extend outwards along the sides. Channels 10 are also arranged between the recesses 8 so that liquid can flow freely between them. This ensures that all the recesses can be filled with liquid to ensure maximum liquid collection capacity. Optionally, instead of channel connections 10 between separately arranged recesses 8 as shown in Fig. 1, a continuous recess may be arranged around the entire case at the sides (not shown). Depending on the area of use, the recess(es) will be able to accommodate a volume corresponding to 2-5% of the box's volume. E.g. for the transport of meat, a box of approx. 40 liters could be provided with recesses that hold from 1 to 1.5 liters of liquid.

En av hensiktene med fordypningene er som beskrevet i det ovenstående å kunne "oppta" væske. En annen viktig hensikt er å utnytte fordypningene til å forsterke bunnen i kassen. Som det fremgår av Fig. 2 og 3 danner fordypningene nedoverrettede vulster eller fremspring 11 som strekker seg nedenfor kassens bunn og sider. Disse vulstene fremtrer som "korrugeringer" i den flate bunnen og gir øket stivhet og opptak av større bøyespenninger i bunnkonstruksjonen. One of the purposes of the depressions is, as described above, to be able to "absorb" liquid. Another important purpose is to use the recesses to reinforce the bottom of the box. As can be seen from Fig. 2 and 3, the depressions form downwardly directed beads or projections 11 which extend below the bottom and sides of the box. These beads appear as "corrugations" in the flat bottom and provide increased stiffness and absorption of greater bending stresses in the bottom construction.

Vulstene har også en tredje funksjon, nemlig å tjene som støtte og styreinnretninger ved stabling av kassen oppå en annen. Således er vulstene slik utformet at de passer innvendig og vil ligge an mot innsiden av veggen i en underliggende kasse. Eller dersom den underliggende kasse har lokk, vil vulstene kunne passe inn i utsparinger i lokket, eller ligge an mot fremspring på dette (ikke nærmere vist). The beads also have a third function, namely to serve as support and control devices when stacking the box on top of another. Thus, the beads are designed so that they fit inside and will lie against the inside of the wall in an underlying box. Or if the underlying box has a lid, the beads will be able to fit into recesses in the lid, or rest against protrusions on this (not shown).
