Definitions

  • This invention relates to the field of nestable thin-wall plastic containers of the disposable variety incorporating stacking means in the bottom wall thereof having a configuration which prevents jamming between adjacent telescopically arranged containers.
  • a stacking facility at a place other than the container side wall to provide more area for printing of the container, and to maintain a smooth side wall shape for aesthetic purposes.
  • rim stacking or stacking means incorporated in the bottom wall of a container.
  • Rim stacking may be successfully employed with certain types of containers, usually those which do not have a substantial volume or capacity due to the limitations placed on the axial height of the rim area. In the final analysis, rim stacking cannot be successfully employed over the wide range of container sizes which have been distributed in the market place, and thus bottom stacking techniques are the most likely alternative to the side wall stacking techniques of my aforesaid patent.
  • Another object is to provide a thin-wall plastic container having a bottom stacking device which is not difficult to form, consistently functions as a stacking device and yet does not interfere, to any great extent, with the volume or capacity of the container.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a bottom stacking means in a thin-walled seamless thermoplastic container which, in other forms of the present invention, is easy to remove from molding machinery and yet provides a stacking function consistent with industry standards.
  • a stacking protuberance formed in the bottom wall of a seamless, nestable container of thermoplastic material, the stacking protuberance including an upper stacking shoulder and a lower stacking shoulder which are connected by an intermediate wall section, at least portions of the intermediate wall section being upwardly and inwardly directed relative to the lower stacking shoulder, and the upper stacking shoulder in the vicinity of the upwardly and inwardly directed portions of the intermediate wall section being both radially outwardly and inwardly offset relative to the lower stacking shoulder to provide a shelf portion which engages the lower shoulder of a similarly configured container to limit the extent of telescopic association of such containers and thereby prevent jamming.
  • FIG. 1 is a fragmentary perspective view, partially in section, showing a seamless thermoplastic nestable container embodying one form of bottom stacking device constructed in accordance with the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view showing a pair of nested containers each incorporating the stacking device depicted in FIG. 1 and being arranged in stacked relationship relative to one another;
  • FIG. 3 is a fragmentary perspective view showing the bottom section of a seamless thin-wall nestable plastic container which includes a modified form of stacking device in the bottom wall thereof;
  • FIG. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary section view similar to FIG. 2, but showing stacking of the containers by way of the stacking means disclosed in FIG. 3 of the drawlngs;
  • FIG. 5 is a fragmentary perspective view similar to 3 FIG. 3, and showing yet another modified form of the present invention.
  • FIG. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view similar to FIGS. 2 and 4, and showing stacking of containers by utilizing the stacking form shown in FIG. of the drawings;
  • FIG. 7 is a fragmentary perspective view, partially in section, similar to FIG. 3 of the drawings and showing another form of stacking device coming within the purview of the present invention
  • FIG. 8 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view similar to FIG. 2 which utilizes the stacking means shown in FIG. 7 of the drawings;
  • FIG. 9 is a fragmentary perspective view, partially in section, similar to FIG. 3, but showing yet another modified form of stacking device incorporated in the bottom wall of a container;
  • FIG. 10 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view similar to FIG. 2 which provides stacking of the containers by utilizing the means shown in FIG. 9 of the draw-
  • FIG. 11 is a fragmentary perspective view partially in section, also similar to FIG. 3 illustrating still another form of stacking device coming within the scope of the present invention
  • FIG. 12 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view showing stacking of a pair of adjacent containers in the same manner as FIG. 2, but utilizing the stacking means shown in FIG. 11 of the drawings;
  • FIG. 13 is a fragmentary perspective view, partially in section, after the fashion of FIG. 3, and depicting another stacking embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 14 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view also similar to FIG. 2 of the drawings which utilizes the stacking means illustrated in FIG. 13;
  • FIG. 15 is a fragmentary perspective view, partially in section, similar to FIG. 3 showing the last illustrated form of stacking device constructed in accordance with the present invention.
  • FIG. 16 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view similar to FIG. 2 of the drawings, and showing stacking of a pair of nested containers utilizing the stacking means illustrated in FIG. 15 of the drawings.
  • cup or container 10 which incorporates the stacking facility of the present invention is illustrated in FIG. 1 of the drawings.
  • the cup or container 10 is preferably made into a seam-less, thin-wall construction from a thermoplastic material such as polystyrene, and is formed into a frustc conical shape including a bottom wall 12, and a peripherally continuous side wall 14 which diverges upwardly and outwardly therefrom and which terminates in a rim portion 16 in the vicitnity of the open mouth or open upper end of the container 10.
  • a thermoplastic material such as polystyrene
  • the side wall 14 may incorporate various types of finger gripping rings or protuberances to facilitate grasping as well as thermally insulate the hand of the user, there may be a desire to retain the smooth side walls shape as illustrated in the drawing when using the stacking facility of the present invention.
  • the stacking means or facility 18 is formed integrally with the bottom wall 12 of the container by conventional thermoforming techniques.
  • the stacking facility or means comprises a protuberance formed in the bottom wall 12 of the container which includes a lower external stacking shoulder 20 at the outermost peripheral extent of an end wall section 22 which is generally aligned with, but radially spaced from, the bottom wall 12, an upper internal stacking shoulder 24 axially upwardly spaced from and both outwardly and inwardly offset from a plane parallel to the container axis containing the lower external stacking shoulder 20 and an intermediate connecting wall section 26 which is upwardly and inwardly directed relative to the lower stacking shoulder 20 and inter-connects the lower and upper stacking shoulder 20, 24 respectively to each other.
  • a downwardly and outwardly directed connecting wall 28 integrally joins the stacking protuberance by way of its upper stacking shoulder 24 to the bottom wall 12 of the container.
  • this stacking arrangement enables containers to be nested one within the other without jamming or sticking therebetween due to the manner in which the stacking protuberances of superposed containers cooperate with one another to limit the extent of telescopic association of adjacent nested containers.
  • the lower stacking shoulder 20 of the uppermost container in FIG. 2 of the drawings rests upon a supporting shelf which is defined by the radially inwardly and outwardly directed upper stacking shoulder associated with the lowermost container.
  • the arrangement of parts limits the extent of telescopic association of adjacent nested containers, and virtually makes impossible any jamming or sticking therebetween during normal handling functions encountered in the storage, transportation and dispensing of plastic containers.
  • the stacking protuberance does not interfere, to any great extent, with the volume or capacity of the container, and this is an important factor in determining the ultimate usage of a particular stacking facility.
  • the lower stacking shoulder 20 and its end wall section 2 the upper stacking shoulder 24, and the intermediat connecting wall section 26 define the outer boundaries of a recess 30 formed in the stacking protuberance 18 of each container 10, the recess being of sizable proportions to receive a quantity of liquid therein. It will be recognized that were each stacking means or protuberance 18 not provided with the recess 30, a substantial reduction in the volume or capacity of the container would result. It will be appreciated, therefore, that the stacking means or protuberance 18 not only provides a consistently functioning stacking device but does so without causing a substantial reduction in the volume or capacity of the container.
  • FIGS. 3-16 of the drawings Reference is now made to the other forms of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 3-16 of the drawings, and in describing the various embodiments, similar reference numerals will be employed to identify parts corresponding with the FIGS. 1-2 embodiment, and also including a different letter sufiix for each form of the invention shown to distinguish from the FIGS. 1-2 embodiment and the various other embodiments shown in FIGS. 3-16.
  • the stacking means or protuberance 18a formed in the bottom wall of the container 10a differs from the FIGS. 1-2 embodiment in that the height and shape of the intermediate wall section 26a is materially different. Specifically, the axial height of the intermediate wall section 26a of the stacking protuberance 18a is less than the axial height of the connecting wall section 28a which will cause the end wall section 22a and the lower external stacking shoulder 20a to be positioned axially above and out of alignment with the bottom wall 12a. This arrangement will permit a smaller stack height for containers incorporating this particular stacking protuberance over the form of invention shown in FIGS. 1-2 as will be evident.
  • a further distinguishing feature from the FIGS. 1-2 embodiment relates to the inclined or back tapered intermediate wall section 26a which structurally differs from the first upwardly direct portion and then inwardly directed portion of the intermediate wall section 26.
  • the stacking means 18b of each container is formed by utilizing a radially directed slot within an inverted frusto-conical area of the stacking means.
  • the portions of the stacking protuberance 18b which surrounds the radially extending slot 30b define the end wall section 22b and its peripherally extending lower shoulder 20b, the intermediate section 26b, and the juncture of the intermediate section 26b with the upper stacking shoulder 24b.
  • the axial height of the intermediate wall section 26b is inclined or back tapered with respect to the container axis in the same manner as the FIGS.
  • FIGS. 7-8 depict another modified form of invention which differs materially in appearance of those embodiments above discussed.
  • the stacking means or protuberance 180 of each of the containers 100 in the FIGS. 7-8 embodiment also includes the lower and upper stacking shoulders 20c, 24c respectively and the intermediate wall section 26c joining the shoulder.
  • the primary difierence of this embodiment from those previously discussed is the manner in which the stacking means or protuberance 18c is directed or projects outwardly away from the bottom wall 120 in this form of the invention.
  • the stacking means or protuberance of the present invention may be either inwardly directed after the fashion of the FIGS. l-2 embodiment, for example, or may be outwardly directed relative to the bottom wall.
  • the remainder of the stacking structure is similar in shape to the FIGS. 3-4 embodiment.
  • This embodiment makes it ap parent that the upper stacking shoulder, or for that matter the lower stacking shoulder, need not be horizontally or radially directed and still accomplish its intended function in the environment of the present invention.
  • the upper stacking shoulder 24d would include part of the connecting wall 28d even though the lower stacking shoulder 20d of the uppermost container does not come into contact therewith.
  • the upper stacking shoulder 24d in this embodiment provides a line contact engagement with the lower stacking shoulder 20d which is all that is necessary in achieving the overlapping interference desired in this present invention.
  • FIGS. 11-12 and FIGS. 13-14 are somewhat similar in that the stacking protuberances in each instance are tilted or inclined with respect to the axis of the containers to provide the overlapping function for stacking purposes.
  • the stacking protuberance 18a of each container e is radially inwardly directed whereas in the FIGS. 13-14 embodiment, the stacking means or protuberance 18 is radially outwardly directed.
  • the tilting or inclination of the stacking protuberance will provide an overlapping between at least portions of the upper and lower stacking shoulders associated with adjacent containers to provide stacking interference which is greater than the material thickness of the container at the point of overlap or contact.
  • the stacking interference or overlapping of the type mentioned will be provided.
  • FIGS. 13-14 embodiment will conserve the volume or capacity of the container, the same will not be true of the FIGS. 1l-12 embodiment.
  • the stacking protuberances 18e and :18 can be easily removed from the molding apparatus since there is no annular or peripheral undercut involved from the standpoint of stripping containers having such protuberances from their mold parts.
  • FIGS. 15-16 The last described embodiment illustrated in the drawings is shown in FIGS. 15-16.
  • each stacking protuberance 18g there are a plurality of stacking protuberances 18g for each container 10g, each stacking protuberance 18g having the lower stacking shoulder 20g, the upper stacking shoulder 24g, and the intermediate wall section 26g.
  • the lower stacking shoulder 20g and the upper stacking shoulder 24g of adjacent stacking protuberances 18g are joined to each other by way of a second intermediate wall section 32 which finds no counterpart in previously discussed embodiments.
  • the stacking protuberance 18g at the far right in FIG. 16 of the drawings is joined to the bottom wall 12g through the intermediate wall section 26g.
  • the least optimum stacking position is shown for a pair of nested containers in FIG. 16 of the drawings, and it should be recognized that when this occurs, the bottom wall 12g to the far right as viewed in FIG. 16 will cooperate with the upper stacking shoulder 24g of a lowermost container in limiting the extent of telescopic association of adjacent containers.
  • the stacking protuberances 18g are designed on adjacent containers to effectively limit jamming or sticking of the containers in the same manner as described in the previous embodiments.
  • the thin-wall character of the material which is on the order of .01" in thickness and its inherent flexibility which is derived from the thermoplastic material will provide a certain amount of resiliency in various forms of the invention where the structure of the stacking protuberance will work with and not against this desired result. It is conceivable that there could be various stacking configurations which, although constructed in accordance with the present invention, will not take advantage of the resiliency of the material to provide a shock absorbing technique for the containers when subjected to the normal handling functions. This is, however, a very desirable result, and should be utilized in all instances where possible.
  • a seamless container of thermoplastic material having a bottom wall and a side wall which diverges upwardly and outwardly therefrom to an open upper end, and -a stacking protuberance formed in the bottom wall of said container including an upper stacking shoulder and a lower stacking shoulder connected by an intermediate wall section, at least portions of the intermediate wall section being upwardly and inwardly directed relative to the lower stacking shoulder, said upper stacking shoulder in the vicinity of the upwardly and inwardly directed portions of said intermediate wall section being both radially outwardly and inwardly offset relative to the lower stacking shoulder to provide a shelf portion which engages the lower shoulder of a similarly configured container to limit the extent of telescopic association of said containers and thereby prevent jamming, said intermediate wall section first extending upwardly from the lower stacking shoulder and then inwardly toward the container axis, the inwardly directed portions of the intermediate wall section and the inwardly offset portions of the upper stacking shoulder being superposed relative to one another.
