Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to containers, and more particularly to containers with attached lids.
  • Containers with attached lids are used for many purposes. These containers generally include a pair of opposing side walls and a pair of opposing end walls integrally molded with a base. A pair of lids are each hingeably connected to one of the side walls. The lids include a plurality of tongues that interlock in the middle of the container in the closed position.
  • the container After being emptied, the container must be washed prior to reuse.
  • the container In order to wash the container, the container is inverted on a conveyor with the lids open.
  • the lids In order to prevent water from accumulating on the upper surfaces of the open lids, the lids may be tied up at an angle.
  • the container may also be tipped onto its side by another conveyor to further assist in the drainage.
  • a container includes a base and a plurality of sidewalls. At least one lid is pivotably connected to one of the walls. The lid includes at least one projection that contacts at least one rib on the exterior surface of the wall when the lid is pivoted to an open position. This prevents over-rotation of the lid, such as when the lid and container are resting on the wall of the autoclave prior to dumping.
  • the lid includes at least one projection from an interior surface of the lid proximate the axis.
  • the at least one projection contacts the support surface thereby pivoting the lid to a position where it is not parallel to the floor, thus ensuring that water drains from the lid during washing.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a container according to one embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a top view of the container of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 3 is an end view of the container of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 4 is a side view of the container of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the container of FIG. 1 with the lids in the open position.
  • FIG. 6 is an enlarged perspective view of the container of FIG. 5 .
  • FIG. 7 is an end view of the container of FIG. 1 in an inverted position with the lids open on a support surface.
  • FIG. 8 is an enlarged view of the hinge area of the container of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 9 is a section view through one of the side walls and one of the lids in the open position.
  • FIG. 1 A container 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1 .
  • the container 10 includes a base 12 integrally molded with opposing side walls 14 and opposing end walls 16 .
  • a lip 20 protrudes outwardly and downwardly from a periphery of the upper edges of the side walls 14 and end walls 16 .
  • the side walls 14 each include a pair of outer ribs 21 and inner ribs 22 extending vertically on an exterior surface of the side wall 14 .
  • the outer ribs 21 extend downwardly from the lip 20 further than the inner ribs 22 .
  • the outer ribs 21 are also a little deeper than the inner ribs 22 .
  • the end walls 16 each include an integrally molded handle 26 defining a hand opening 28 between the handle 26 and the end walls 16 .
  • Ribs 30 are formed in the handle 26 and face upwardly.
  • the container 10 includes a pair of lids 34 , each connected to an uppermost edge of one of the side walls 14 by a hinge 36 .
  • Each of the lids 34 includes an outer reinforcement portion 40 and an inner reinforcement portion 41 . Both reinforcement portions 40 , 41 are elongated in a direction generally parallel to an axis of the hinge 36 .
  • the outer reinforcement portions 40 are shorter than the inner reinforcement portions 41 in a longitudinal direction.
  • the outer reinforcement portions 40 each include an interlocking portion 42 at each end, projecting upwardly further than the outer reinforcement portion 40 .
  • Each lid 34 also includes a latch portion 46 for latching to the lip 20 .
  • the lids 34 further include interleaved tongues 48 , as is known in the art.
  • FIG. 2 is a top view of the container 10 . As can be seen in FIG. 2 , the handle 26 projects outwardly from the footprint of the container 10 .
  • FIG. 3 is an end view of the container 10 .
  • FIG. 4 is a side view of the container 10 . Again, it can be seen that the handles 26 project outwardly of the footprint of the container 10 and outwardly of the lip 20 .
  • FIG. 5 is perspective view of the container 10 with the lids 34 open.
  • Each of the lids 34 includes a pair of projections 50 projecting downwardly from an interior surface of the lid 34 .
  • FIG. 6 is an enlarged view showing one of the projections 50 on the interior surface of the lid 34 , proximate the hinge 36 .
  • the projections 50 are positioned proximate the hinges 36 .
  • the projections 50 are positioned much closer to the hinge 36 than the opposite edge of the lid 34 .
  • the distance between the axis of the hinge 36 and the projections 50 is less than a tenth of the distance between the axis of the hinge 36 and an opposite edge of the lid 34 .
  • FIG. 7 is an end view of the container 10 inverted, with the lids 34 open and resting on a support surface S, which could be a floor or conveyor.
  • a support surface S which could be a floor or conveyor.
  • the projections 50 contact the support surface S and cause the lids 34 to pivot upwardly as shown.
  • the container 10 is supported solely on the projections 50 , such that the weight of the container is used to pivot the lids 34 to this drainage position.
  • the lids 34 are approximately thirty degrees relative to the support surface S.
  • the lid 34 is automatically in pivoted to a drainage position for washing. This will prevent water from accumulating on the exterior surface of the lids 34 .
  • FIG. 9 is a section view through one of the side walls 14 and lids 34 in the open position.
  • the outer reinforcement portion 40 contacts the inner ribs 22 on the side wall 14
  • the inner reinforcement portions 41 contact the outer ribs 21 on the side wall 14 .
  • the outer reinforcement portions 40 do not contact the outer ribs 21 , because they are too short.
  • the weight of the container 10 would be born by the ribs 21 , 22 via the lid 34 , and not solely by the hinge 36 as in the prior art.
