Definitions

  • This'invention relates to a bottle washing machine basket which has a plastics lining, e.g. of polypropylene, to protect the bottle necks when they experience impacts due to striking of the end of the baskets.
  • a bottle washing machine basket having a detachable plastics lining, such basket including a rectangular metal box having compartments into each of which there is driven a liner of a plastics material provided with a nose, the diameter of a liner being slightly larger than the inside width of the compartment into which it is inserted so that a slight deformation is required to drive the liner home and the liner is thereby clamped in the compartment.
  • FIG. 4 is a'fragmentary projective view of a plastic liner engaged with a wall of the box.
  • a bottle washing machine basket includes an elongated rectangular metal box 1 which is open at the top and bottom and which contains partitions 2 dividing the box into compartments 3.
  • the lower longitudinal edges of the box are bent over slightly towards one another to form conical edge portions 4 (see FIG. 2).
  • a cylindrical liner 5 of plastics material having a conical nose 6' is driven into each of the compartments 3 of the metal box 1.
  • the neck of a bottle when inserted in the compartment may pass through the nose 6 or not depending on the circumstances.
  • the diameter of a liner 5 is slightly larger than the inside dimensions of a compartment, so that a slight deformation is necessary when the liner is driven home and the liner is thereby reliably clamped in the compartment.
  • a triangular shaped projection 7 is formed on a portion of the outer surface of the liner 5 havingits lower side sloping downwardly from the apex toward the liner with its upper side being substantiallyperpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the liner and extending from the apex toward the liner.
  • the projection 7 adapted for engagement in a notch 8 formed in a wall of the compartment 3 to assistin retaining the liner 5' therein.
  • a basket constructed as described above presents the following advantages; I
  • a bottle carrier comprising:
  • each sleeve being open at the top and bottom, the outer diameter of each sleeve being slightly larger than the inner width of the compartment into which it is inserted so that a slight deformation occurs thereby fixedly clamping.
  • each sleeve tapering downwardly and inwardly to define an inverted conical end surface for receiving the top end portion of a bottle therein, each sleeve being of a length such that the bottom end extends downwardly from its compartment to a position beneath the bottom longitudinal edges of the sidewalls of the frame and g the bottom longitudinal edges of the frame sidewalls being bent inwardly towards one another at an acute angle so as to engage a portion of the outer surface of the conical end of the sleeve inserted in the compartment in a manner to position each sleeve in the compartment in which it is inserted.
  • each compartment having a recess formed in one of the sidewalls thereof;
  • each sleeve having an outwardly extending projection provided on its outer periphery and radially extending therefrom, the projection adapted for positive engagement in the sidewall recess for positioning and retaining the sleeve in the compartment into which it is inserted.
  • each compartment having a recess formed in one of the sidewalls thereof;
  • each sleeve having an outwardly extending projection provided on its outer periphery and radially extending therefrom, the projection adapted for horizontal upper surface for engagement with the top edge of the sidewall recess, and the lower surface of the a projection being tapered downwardly from the apex of the projection to the outer periphery of the sleeve.
