Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The presently disclosed invention relates to containers and, more particularly, shipping containers for protecting glass vessels and other fragile objects.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- Various types and styles of containers for protecting sensitive or fragile objects are known in the prior art. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 2,493,380 describes a protective enclosure that separates an internal container from an outer container by various ribs between the sides and bottom of the two containers. The protective container is made of upper and lower portions with the upper portion forming a protective cap for the inner container. As another example, U.S. Pat. No. 2,500,786 describes a double wall protective container that includes spacers between the sides and bottom of the inner wall of the protective container and the outer surfaces of the container that is housed therein. The protective container includes upper and lower portions that engage each other to envelop the enclosed container.
- Safety containers have been used to protect breakable containers such as glass bottles that contain flammable or hazardous materials. U.S. Pat. No. 4,245,685 shows a protective container that is integrally closed on the bottom and has a cone-shaped lid at the top. The lid snap-fits into the body and the cone-shaped portion is sized to receive a portion of the neck of the breakable container that is housed therein. The container includes side ribs and bottom ribs that engage the side of the breakable container to hold the breakable container in a relatively fixed position inside the protective container. Other protective containers include a series of ribs that are located at the bottom end to provide increased strength and durability. Examples are shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,300,612 which has a shatter resistant protective covering that is used to protect glass containers that are housed therein.
- In some cases, such protective containers have used a foam cushion to protect vessels housed therein. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,241,209 describes a safety container with a flange that engages the neck of a breakable container housed therein to stabilize the breakable container within the outer container. Cushioning material is inserted into other portions of the interstitial space between the outer container and the breakable container. In addition, an overcap engages the flange to protect the cap of the breakable container. U.S. Pat. No. 6,793,076 describes a protective enclosure for glass bottles in which internal shock absorbers extend between the sides and bottom of the internal surface of the protective enclosure and the external surface of the glass bottle. The enclosure also has a cap that includes shock absorbing protrusions.
- In another design, U.S. Pat. No. 5,704,484 shows a protective jacket for bottles. The protective container has interlocking top and bottom. The bottom includes channeled edges that reinforce the bottom and that cooperate with an insert to space the enclosed bottle from direct contact with the bottom of the container and blunt forces that are applied to the outside of the protective jacket. U.S. Pat. No. 3,900,121 describes a protective container that includes an interior member that is intended to stabilize the bottle within the container.
- Difficulties and disadvantages have attended all of these prior designs. In some cases, these designs have afforded means to buffer a force that was applied to the side of the container such as when the container is accidentally dropped or impacted by another object. When the prior art design has attempted to account for external impacts, they generally have been in the form of a cushion or shock absorber that transfers unabsorbed energy to discrete areas where the cushion or shock absorber. While this design allows the fragile internal container to survive stronger impacts, it still resulted in breakage because the transferred energy was focused on a relatively small area of the vessel.
- Protective container designs that fully cushioned the inner vessel with foam inserts and the like still relied on mechanical means for absorbing the energy from an impact. Due to the mechanical nature of these designs, energy that was not absorbed was transferred to the breakable vessel in an uneven loading that still resulted in frequent destruction of the interior vessel.
- Accordingly, there was a need in the prior art for a more effective way to protect fragile or breakable items such as vessels that contain flammable or hazardous materials.
- In accordance with the presently disclosed invention, a container for protecting vessels includes a continuous flexible wall that encircles the vessel at times when the vessel is placed in the container. The flexible wall defines an air gap between the outer surface of the vessel and the wall. A base is integrally connected to one end of the flexible wall and a cap is connected to the opposite end of the flexible wall. The base defines a well that receives a portion of the vessel and centers the vessel in the flexible wall. In this way, the air gap between the flexible wall and vessel is substantially the same as all angular locations of the flexible wall. The cap is threadingly engaged with the end of the flexible wall that is opposite from the base.
- The cap and treaded portion of the flexible wall are gaped to allow air flow from the air gap between the flexible wall and vessel to outside the container in response to flexing of the wall toward the vessel. The rate of air flow between the cap and threaded portion of the flexible wall is limited. The rate of flow is selected to be low enough to allow flexure of the wall to absorb energy by developing air pressure within the air gap. The rate of flow is selected to be high enough to limit the pressure that is applied to the surface of the vessel.
- Forces that deflect the flexible wall toward the vessel are transferred to the surface of the vessel by fluid pressure. In this way, the forces are more uniformly transferred to the surface of the vessel than by mechanical means such as mechanical shock absorbers.
- Preferably, a base defines a shoulder between the perimeter of the well and the integral connection between the flexible wall and the base. This structure further strengthens the bottom portions of the container.
- Also preferably, the flexible wall is made of transparent material so that the condition of the vessel and labeling on the vessel can be viewed through the container without removing the vessel from the container.
- Other features, advantages, and objects of the presently disclosed invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art as a description of a presently preferred embodiment thereof proceeds.
- The presently disclosed invention is shown and described in connection with the accompanying drawings herein:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a presently preferred embodiment of the container disclosed herein. -
FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the container that is shown inFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 3 is a side elevation view of the container shown inFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 4 is a side elevation view of the container shown inFIG. 1 from a position orthogonal to the view inFIG. 3 . -
FIG. 5 is a bottom plan view of the container that is shown inFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 6 is an elevation view of the container that is shown inFIGS. 1-5 except thatFIG. 6 further depicts an exemplary vessel which is a glass bottle and illustrates the air gap between the container and the bottle. -
FIGS. 1-6 show a presently preferred embodiment of the invention wherein acontainer 10 is a protective container for a fragile vessel such asglass bottle 12 which is contained incontainer 10.Container 10 is a molded plastic container that is comprised of clear polyethylene. -
Container 10 includes aflexible wall 14 that is in the form of a circular cylinder that has alongitudinal axis 15.Flexible wall 14 encirclesbottle 12 and defines afirst end 16 and asecond end 18.Flexible wall 14 is sized so that the diameter D1 of the cylinder is larger than the diameter D2 of thebottle 12 so that agap 19 is defined between theflexible wall 14 and the surface ofbottle 12. Thefirst end 16 of the flexible wall is integrally connected to a base 20 that supports the container at times when the container is oriented in an upright position. -
Base 20 includes anarea 22 that has a longitudinal position alongaxis 15 in the direction further away fromflexible wall 14 than the rest ofbase 20 so thatbase 20 defines a well 24 witharea 22 at the bottom of the well.Area 22 is generally circular and intersected at the center point byaxis 15. The diameter D3 ofarea 22 is selected to be less than D1 and greater than D2. In that way, well 24 is large enough to receive one end ofbottle 12 and, whenbottle 12 is placed in well 24,bottle 12 tends to be centered with respect tolongitudinal axis 15 andflexible wall 14. Sincebottle 12 is centered with respect toflexible wall 14, thegap 19 betweenflexible wall 14 andbottle 12 is substantially the same at all angular positions aroundlongitudinal axis 15. - The
second end 18 offlexible wall 14 is threadingly connected to acap 26 bythreads 27 in thesecond end 18 offlexible wall 14 andthreads 28 incap 26.Threads cap 26 to thesecond end 18 offlexible wall 14, but still have an air gap that will allow a limited flow of air betweenthreads container 10. -
Flexible wall 14 is made of a clear, resilient material such as polyethylene.Flexible wall 14 has a wall thickness that is large enough to withstand substantial impact forces, butwall 14 is also thin enough that impact forces will causewall 14 to deflect inwardly towardbottle 12. Preferably,wall 14 has a thickness in the range of 0.5 mm. to 1.5 mm. - When
wall 14 is impacted by a force sufficient to deflectwall 14 towardbottle 12, the air pressure ingap 19 tends to increase, applying opposing forces both againstwall 14 and the surface ofbottle 12. The increased air pressure tends to absorb energy of the impact force. As the air pressure insidecontainer 10 increases, the pressure differential between the inside and outside ofcontainer 10 causes air to flow at a limited rate betweenthreads container 10 to the outside. - Because the air flow rate between
threads flexible wall 14 does not readily deflect to the surface ofbottle 12. Instead, the deflection continues to be slowed by opposing forces of the elevated air pressure ingap 19. The opposing force ingap 19 is determined by the rate at which air ingap 19 is displaced by the deflection ofwall 14 and the rate at which air flows betweenthreads container 10 are buffered by air ingap 19 so thatbottle 12 is protected. Thus, the opposing force ingap 19 is governed by air flow gap betweenthreads - The mechanical strength of
container 10 is increased by structure at thefirst end 16 andsecond end 18 ofwall 14. More particularly, because the diameter D3 of well 24 is less than the diameter D1 offlexible wall 14,base 20 forms ashoulder 30 betweenfirst end 16 and theperimeter 32 ofwell 24.Shoulder 30 provides increased rigidity forcontainer 10 in the region of the first end offlexible wall 14. - At the
second end 18 ofwall 14,threads cap 26, cooperate to provide additional mechanical strength and rigidity forcontainer 10. - While a presently preferred embodiment of the invention, the presently disclosed invention is not limited thereto, but can be otherwise variously embodied within the scope of the following claims.
