Definitions

  • the present invention relates to plastic barrel for storing and transporting liquid, granular and pulverous materials.
  • the barrel includes a conical, stackable barrel body and a closing cover for the upper filling opening.
  • the conical wide-neck steel drums known from EP 0 471 918 A1 are equipped with a bunghole opening arranged in a lower bottom, wherein the bunghole opening can be closed in a liquid-tight manner by a cover.
  • the bunghole opening makes it possible to insert an auxiliary means, such as a pulling device or a turning spindle, through the bunghole opening in the bottom of the lower barrel in the stack in such a way that an operator can push the clamped inner drum of the stack with little force and without damaging the drum.
  • an auxiliary means such as a pulling device or a turning spindle
  • the wall of the barrel body has in the area of the bottom of the barrel inwardly directed stacking cams which are formed from the wall of the barrel body and are provided with support surfaces for supporting the barrel bottom of another barrel body stacked in the barrel.
  • the conical plastic barrel according to the present invention provides the advantage that when the barrels are stacked, gaps remain between the walls of the stacked barrels because of the inwardly directed stacking cams formed into the walls of the barrel body in the area of the bottom thereof with support surfaces for supporting the barrel body of another drum body stacked in the barrel, so that the barrels cannot clamp relative to each other and the barrels can be easily removed from the stack of barrels.
  • FIG. 1 is an exploded view of a plastic barrel according to the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a top view of the open barrel
  • FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view, on a larger scale, of the cover area of the barrel.
  • FIG. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view of the lower areas of a stack of four barrels.
  • the blow-molded plastic barrel 1 according to FIGS. 1 to 3 which preferably is used as a water barrel, has a conical barrel body 2 which is divided into 6 annular segments 3 to 8 whose diameter increases in stages from the barrel bottom 9 to the upper filling opening 10 , wherein the filling opening 10 can be closed by means of a cover 11 .
  • the closing cover 11 is fastened on the barrel body 2 by means of a bayonet-type closure 12 .
  • inwardly directed prismatic stacking cams 14 each having a triangular support surface 15 for supporting the barrel bottom 9 of a barrel body 2 stacked in the barrel are formed in the wall 13 of the barrel body 2 in the area of the barrel bottom 9 .
  • the stacking cams 14 provide the result that gaps 16 remain between the walls 13 of the barrels 1 , so that the barrels 1 cannot be clamped into each other and the barrels can be removed from the stack without difficulties.
  • the closing cover 11 of the plastic barrel 1 which is reinforced by radially extending stiffening ribs 19 which are formed from the cover 11 , has a central opening 20 which can be closed by means of a cover 21 and a clamping ring 22 .
  • the end of a downpipe of a gutter of a residential building can be placed into the central opening 20 of the closing cover 11 .
  • the water barrel 1 is used in agriculture, there is the possibility of mixing additives, for example, chlorine additives, into the water through the cover opening 20 .
  • formed on the closing cover 11 can be a bung pipe with a bung opening which can be closed by a bung plug.
