  • the dismantled container Once the dismantled container has reached the filling station or is otherwise required for use, it must be reassembled, which again is both labour intensive and inconvenient. It is also found that the outlet valves on such containers through which the material is dispensed are often fully exposed during transport and thereby susceptible to damage.
  • a container arrangement comprising an outer support structure and flexible containing means attached to the structure and arranged to define a space to contain material therein, the assembly being generally collapsible substantially as an integral unit from a first, erect condition in which the containing means defines a relatively large space for containment of material, to a second, collapsed condition.

  • the torque bar 64 gradually moves the movable base plate 62 from a generally horizontal position (Fig. 7) to an inclined position (Fig. 8), in which material contained within the liner 68 drains towards the outlet valve arrangement 58. This ensures that little or no material remains trapped in the bottom of the liner 68 following dispensing.

  • the locking arrangements provided between the middle and upper sections 26,30 are also released, and the top structure 34 is lowered, the respective upright members 20 folding over respective sides of the base, as the assembly 12 is collapsed via the intermediate condition shown in Fig. 2 to the fully collapsed condition as shown in Fig. 3.
  • This collapsed condition enables space efficient return of the arrangement 10 to the filling station, or space efficient storage.
  • the arrangement 10 of the present invention collapses as a single unit, without the need for parts thereof to be removed. This results in a simple and efficient procedure for collapsing and erecting the arrangement 10. Whilst the openings 40 enable a forklift truck to be used if desired, it has been found that the arrangement 10 can be readily erected and collapsed by a single operative, easily and quickly. Moreover, since there is no dissociation of parts of the arrangement 10, there is no likelihood of any being misplaced. The gravitational action of the locking arrangement 42 also facilitates erection of the assembly.
  • the automatically inclining base plate 62 ensures that there is little or no material left in the liner 68 and therefore obviates the problem of wastage, without the need for an operative to take any action.
  • the locking arrangement may take any convenient form.
  • the torque bar 64 may be replaced by appropriate spring means to move the base plate 62 or any other appropriate formation to a position to direct material toward the outlet valve.
  • the pivots 32 may be adjacent the top structure 34, whereby the container can be collapsed to an even more compact configuration for transportation. Further, the perimeter wall may be removed where possible to reduce the cost of manufacture and weight of the container, whereby to ease transporta ⁇ tion etc.
  • a support member may be provided on the base to support the outlet.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un aménagement pour récipient (10) (fig. 5) qui comprend une structure de soutien ayant la forme d'un cadre que l'on assemble (12) et un élément flexible de contenance (14) relié à l'assemblage (12) en général à l'extrémité supérieure de l'élément (14) et disposé de manière à définir un espace (16) destiné à contenir du matériau (liquide ou en poudre). L'assemblage (12) est, en général, considérablement télescopable en une unité intégrale et il passe d'une position déployée et droite (figs. 1, 5), dans laquelle l'élément de contenance (14) définit un espace relativement grand (16) pour la contenance du matériau à une deuxième position, repliée (fig 3.), après ou pendant la distribution du matériau, pour le transport et/ou l'entreposage. Un plateau de base mobile (62) est relié par pivot le long de son côté à une soupape de distribution (58) autour d'une barre de torsion (64). La barre (64) est sous torsion lorsque le plateau de base (62) est au-dessus d'une base fixe (54) et elle n'est en général pas sous torsion lorsque le plateau de base (54) est incliné au-dessus du plateau de base (54) dans une direction qui descend vers la fente (56), de telle sorte que, au fur et à mesure, que le poids du matériau disposé dans le récipient et reposant sur le plateau de base mobile (62) diminue lors de la distribution du matériau à travers la soupape (58), le plateau (62) s'incline progressivement, descend vers la soupape (58) et guide le matériau vers la soupape (58) pour la distribution.
