Description

流体輸送コンテナFluid transport container
 本発明は、主としてグリース等の高粘性流体の輸送に好適に使用される流体輸送コンテナに関するものである。 The present invention relates to a fluid transport container that is suitably used mainly for transporting a highly viscous fluid such as grease.
 従来より、例えばグリース等の油脂類、印刷インキ、接着剤、塗料、マヨネーズ等の流動性食品その他の各種の粘性の高い所謂粘稠物である高粘性流体の輸送に使用するコンテナとしては、金属製やプラスチック製のタンクが一般に使用されていた。 Conventionally, containers used for transporting highly viscous fluids, which are so-called viscous materials such as oils and fats such as grease, fluid foods such as printing inks, adhesives, paints, and mayonnaise, and various other highly viscous materials, Tanks made of plastic or plastic were generally used.
 しかし、この種のタンクはかなり高価であり、また輸送先からの返送時の空タンクの輸送や空タンクの保管効率が劣る上、繰り返し使用するためのタンク内面や排出用管の洗浄が面倒なものであった。 However, this kind of tank is quite expensive, and the efficiency of transporting empty tanks and storing empty tanks when returning from the destination is inferior, and it is troublesome to clean the tank inner surface and the discharge pipe for repeated use. It was a thing.
 そのため、近年、可撓性を有する合成樹脂フィルム等よりなる袋体を折り畳みや分解が可能な剛性のある外枠と組み合わせて使用し、該袋体を1回の使用で廃棄するようにして、洗浄を簡略化した液体コンテナが提案されている(例えば、特許文献1)。 Therefore, in recent years, a bag made of a flexible synthetic resin film or the like is used in combination with a rigid outer frame that can be folded and disassembled, and the bag is discarded after being used once. A liquid container with simplified cleaning has been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1).
 この場合、粘性の低い液体の輸送においては、液体の流動性を利用して充填及び排出を容易に行うことができるが、粘性の高い前記のような高粘性流体の場合には、流体自体の流動性だけでは充填及び排出が行われ難いものである。そのため、例えば、底部に有する出入用口部からポンプの圧送力により高粘性流体を充填しあるいは排出することが行われている。 In this case, in transporting a low-viscosity liquid, filling and discharging can be easily performed using the fluidity of the liquid. However, in the case of a highly viscous fluid as described above, the fluid itself Filling and discharging are difficult to perform with only fluidity. Therefore, for example, a highly viscous fluid is filled or discharged by a pumping force from an inlet / outlet port at the bottom.
 ところで、ポンプによる圧送力で底部の出入用口部から高粘性流体を排出するようにした場合、高粘性流体が出入用口部に近い部分から前記ポンプにより吸引されて排出されることで、内部流体の上面(液面)では中央部から陥没し、これに伴って袋体の天部が中央部から引き込まれ、該袋体の一部が出入用口部に吸い込まれたりして、該口部を塞ぎ、その結果、高粘性流体の排出が阻害されることがあり、特に、袋体内の周辺部では流体が充分に排出されずに残存するおそれがある。 By the way, when the high-viscosity fluid is discharged from the inlet / outlet portion at the bottom by the pumping force by the pump, the high-viscosity fluid is sucked and discharged by the pump from the portion close to the inlet / outlet portion. On the upper surface (liquid level) of the fluid, the top of the bag sinks from the center, and the top of the bag is drawn from the center, and part of the bag is sucked into the entrance / exit port. As a result, the discharge of the highly viscous fluid may be hindered. In particular, the fluid may remain in the peripheral portion of the bag body without being sufficiently discharged.
 そのため、内装体の出入用口部に取着した筒状の排出体に、液体を通過させる長孔を有するフランジ筒を内方上向きに突設しておくことにより、袋体が出入用口部に吸い込まれて該口部を完全に塞ぐことになるのを防止するようにしたコンテナ用の内袋が提案されている(特許文献2参照)。
特許第3769653号公報 特開2004-182275号公報
Therefore, the bag body can be opened and closed by projecting the flange cylinder having a long hole through which the liquid passes through the cylindrical discharge body attached to the entrance and exit of the interior body. An inner bag for a container has been proposed that prevents the mouth from being completely blocked by being sucked into the mouth (see Patent Document 2).
Japanese Patent No. 3769653 JP 2004-182275 A
 前記のように出入用口部に対する袋体の密着を防いで完全に塞がないようにするだけでは、ポンプによる吸引により内部の高粘性流体が出入用口部の近辺から排出されることに変わりがないため、合成樹脂フィルム等の可撓性の袋体が前記排出体の外周面に吸着された場合に流体の排出を阻害するおそれがある。その上、袋内における周辺部の流体の排出促進には殆ど効果がなく、周辺部に流体が残存するおそれもある。このような問題は、高粘性流体の粘度が高い場合ほど顕著である。 By simply preventing the bag body from sticking to the entrance / exit port as described above and completely blocking it, the internal high-viscosity fluid is discharged from the vicinity of the entrance / exit port by suction by the pump. Therefore, when a flexible bag body such as a synthetic resin film is adsorbed on the outer peripheral surface of the discharge body, there is a possibility that the discharge of the fluid is hindered. In addition, there is almost no effect in promoting the discharge of the fluid in the peripheral part in the bag, and there is a possibility that the fluid remains in the peripheral part. Such a problem becomes more prominent as the viscosity of the highly viscous fluid is higher.
 また、前記提案のコンテナ用の内袋は、全体が合成樹脂フィルム等よりなる袋体よりなるものであるため、内容物の高粘性流体が排出されて減少するのに伴って、該袋体が幾重にも重なって畳まれた状態になり、流体が益々排出され難くなって、流体の残量が多くなる。 Further, since the proposed inner bag for a container is a bag made entirely of a synthetic resin film or the like, as the highly viscous fluid of the contents is discharged and reduced, The layers are folded and overlapped, and the fluid becomes more difficult to be discharged, and the remaining amount of fluid increases.
 本発明は、前記の問題点を解決するためになしたものであり、特に、輸送対象の流体を収納する容器本体の構造、特には少なくとも底部を含む下部体の構造を工夫して、収納される流体が粘性の高い所謂高粘性流体であっても、出入用口部付近の中央部のみでなく周辺部からも同時に排出でき、しかも、最後まで殆ど残さずに流体を排出することができる流体輸送コンテナを提供するものである。 The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems, and in particular, the structure of the container body for storing the fluid to be transported, particularly the structure of the lower body including at least the bottom, is devised and stored. Fluid that can be discharged from not only the central part near the entrance and exit but also the peripheral part at the same time, and the fluid can be discharged almost without leaving to the end Provide shipping containers.
 上記の課題を解決する本発明の流体輸送コンテナは、流体を収納する容器本体と、該容器本体を支持する外枠とからなる流体輸送コンテナであって、前記容器本体は、少なくとも底部を含んでなる下部体と、該下部体の上部にシール状態に固着された可撓性シート材よりなる上部体とからなり、前記下部体は、前記少なくとも底部の全域にわたって流体が通過可能な多孔体よりなる内壁と非通液性の板材よりなる外壁との二重壁構造をなし、前記内外壁間に流体が流通できる間隙を保有するとともに、前記外壁における底部に流体の出入用口部が設けられてなることを特徴とする。 A fluid transport container of the present invention that solves the above-mentioned problems is a fluid transport container comprising a container main body that stores a fluid and an outer frame that supports the container main body, and the container main body includes at least a bottom portion. And a lower body made of a flexible sheet material fixed to the upper portion of the lower body in a sealed state, and the lower body is made of a porous body through which fluid can pass over at least the entire bottom. It has a double wall structure with an inner wall and an outer wall made of a liquid-impermeable plate, has a gap through which fluid can flow between the inner and outer walls, and has a fluid inlet / outlet at the bottom of the outer wall. It is characterized by becoming.
 この流体輸送コンテナは、主としてグリース等の粘性の高い所謂粘稠物である高粘性流体を収納して輸送するのに使用する。この使用において、前記容器本体における下部体の出入用口部より、内部の高粘性流体をポンプの圧送力で吸引して排出する際、前記容器本体における二重壁構造の下部体の内外壁間の間隙を通じて、前記ポンプによる吸引力が少なくとも底部の全域に及び、内部の流体が多孔体よりなる内壁を通して該底部の全域で略同時に吸引されて前記内外壁間の間隙から出入用口部に流れ排出される。 This fluid transport container is mainly used to store and transport a highly viscous fluid that is a so-called viscous material such as grease. In this use, when the internal high-viscosity fluid is sucked and discharged by the pumping force of the pump from the inlet / outlet portion of the lower body in the container body, the space between the inner and outer walls of the lower body of the double wall structure in the container body Through the gap, the suction force by the pump extends over at least the entire area of the bottom, and the internal fluid is sucked substantially simultaneously over the entire area of the bottom through the inner wall made of a porous body and flows from the gap between the inner and outer walls to the entrance / exit port. Discharged.
 また、収容されている流体が高粘性流体であっても、前記の排出によりその上面(液面)が全体的に降下するように減少するため、可撓性シート材よりなる上部体が局部的に吸い込まれることがない上、内部の流体の残量が少なくなって前記上部体が前記内壁に密着しても、外壁に形成された出入用口部を塞いでしまう虞がなく、該出入用口部から内外壁間の間隙を通じて吸引排出作用が最後まで確実に行われる。しかも、上部体のみが可撓性シート材よりなるものであるため、該上部体が前記内壁に沿うように畳まれても重なりが少ないこともあって、該上部体に付着する残量も少なくなる。 Moreover, even if the fluid contained is a highly viscous fluid, the upper body (liquid level) of the upper body made of a flexible sheet material is locally reduced because the upper surface (liquid level) of the fluid is lowered as a result of the discharge. In addition, even if the upper body is closely attached to the inner wall due to a small amount of fluid remaining inside, there is no risk of closing the entrance port formed on the outer wall. The suction and discharge action is reliably performed to the end through the gap between the mouth and the inner and outer walls. In addition, since only the upper body is made of a flexible sheet material, even if the upper body is folded along the inner wall, there is little overlap, and the remaining amount attached to the upper body is small. Become.
 前記の流体輸送コンテナにおいて、前記容器本体の下部体は、底部と側面下部領域を含んでなり、該底部と側面下部領域の全域にわたって流体が通過可能な多孔体よりなる内壁と非通液性の板材により形成された外壁との二重壁構造をなし、内外壁間に流体が流通できる間隙を保有した構成とすることができる。 In the fluid transport container, the lower body of the container main body includes a bottom portion and a side lower portion region, and an inner wall made of a porous body that allows fluid to pass through the entire bottom portion and the side lower portion region and a liquid-impervious portion. A double wall structure with an outer wall formed of a plate material can be formed, and a structure in which a gap through which a fluid can flow between the inner and outer walls can be provided.
 この場合、高粘性流体を吸引して排出する際には、前記ポンプによる吸引力が底部だけでなく側面下部領域にも及び、底部及び側面下部領域の全域で内部の流体が吸引されることになって、出入用口部から遠い周辺部でも流体の吸引排出が不足なく行われる。そのため、容器本体内の流体の排出が全体として均一化し、流体減少に伴う流体上面の降下も平均化し、可撓性シート材よりなる上部体が部分的に流体内に引き込まれることもない。 In this case, when sucking and discharging the highly viscous fluid, the suction force by the pump extends not only to the bottom but also to the lower side region, and the internal fluid is sucked across the entire bottom and side lower region. Thus, the fluid can be sucked and discharged without a shortage even in the peripheral part far from the entrance / exit part. Therefore, the discharge of the fluid in the container body is made uniform as a whole, the lowering of the upper surface of the fluid accompanying the decrease in the fluid is averaged, and the upper body made of the flexible sheet material is not partially drawn into the fluid.
 前記の流体輸送コンテナにおいて、前記下部体の内壁を構成する多孔体が、高粘性流体が通過できる開孔が全域にわたって多数形成されている多孔板又は網体よりなるものとする。これにより、内部の流体が高粘性流体であっても、底部の全域あるいは底部と側面下部領域の全域で同時に流体排出を行うことができる。また、前記多孔体よりなる内壁が、外壁に対し脱着可能に設けられてなるものであると、該内壁を取り外すことにより下部体の内外壁を容易に洗浄できることになる。 In the fluid transport container, the porous body constituting the inner wall of the lower body is made of a perforated plate or a net having a large number of apertures through which a highly viscous fluid can pass. As a result, even if the internal fluid is a highly viscous fluid, the fluid can be discharged simultaneously over the entire bottom portion or the entire bottom portion and side surface lower region. Further, when the inner wall made of the porous body is provided so as to be removable from the outer wall, the inner and outer walls of the lower body can be easily cleaned by removing the inner wall.
 前記の流体輸送コンテナにおいて、前記下部体の外壁の底部が前記出入用口部に向かって傾斜した漏斗状をなし、前記内壁が前記外壁との対応形状をなして前記出入用口部を覆うように設けられてなるものが好ましい。すなわち、内部の流体の排出の際に、ポンプの圧送力で前記出入用口部より吸引することにより、前記下部体の内壁の略全面にわたって存する開孔から送出される流体を、該出入用口部に導いて確実に効率よく排出することができる。 In the fluid transport container, a bottom portion of the outer wall of the lower body has a funnel shape inclined toward the entrance / exit port, and the inner wall forms a corresponding shape with the outer wall so as to cover the entrance / exit portion. What is provided in is preferable. That is, when the internal fluid is discharged, the fluid delivered from the opening existing over substantially the entire inner wall of the lower body is sucked from the entrance / exit port by the pumping force of the pump, and the entrance / exit port It can be reliably discharged efficiently by guiding to the part.
 また、前記流体輸送コンテナにおいて、前記容器本体は、前記下部体が周縁部において外枠における下部の底受枠により受支されることにより支持されてなるものが好ましい。これにより、前記容器本体を外枠内に所定の高さ位置に安定性よく支持でき、また、該容器本体を外枠に対し脱着可能に設けることも容易に可能になる。 Further, in the fluid transport container, it is preferable that the container body is supported by the lower body being supported by a lower bottom receiving frame in the outer frame at the peripheral edge. Accordingly, the container body can be stably supported at a predetermined height position in the outer frame, and the container body can be easily provided to be removable from the outer frame.
 前記流体輸送コンテナにおいて、前記下部体の外壁の出入用口部には、流体の充填及び排出用管を連結可能な筒状の口部材が取着されてなるものが好ましい。これにより、前記充填及び排出用管を容易に連結できる。また、前記充填及び排出用管を取り外すことにより、洗浄も容易になる。 In the fluid transport container, it is preferable that a cylindrical mouth member capable of connecting a fluid filling and discharging pipe is attached to an entrance / exit portion of the outer wall of the lower body. Thereby, the said filling and discharge | emission pipe | tube can be connected easily. Also, cleaning is facilitated by removing the filling and discharging tube.
 前記流体輸送コンテナにおいて、前記上部体は、可撓性シート材の下端部が、前記下部体の上端部に付設した枠部材に対しパッキンを介してシール状態を保持するように固定されてなるものとするのが好ましい。これにより、下部体に、可撓性シート材による上部体をシール状態に確実に固着して使用することができる。また、上部体が損傷したときは該上部体のみを取り換えることにより、下部体を半永久的に使用することができる。 In the fluid transport container, the upper body is fixed such that a lower end portion of a flexible sheet material is held in a sealed state via a packing with respect to a frame member attached to the upper end portion of the lower body. Is preferable. Accordingly, the upper body made of the flexible sheet material can be securely fixed to the lower body in a sealed state and used. When the upper body is damaged, the lower body can be used semipermanently by replacing only the upper body.
 前記流体輸送コンテナにおいて、前記外枠は、少なくとも前記容器本体の上部体の四方の側面を覆う側板が設けられてなるものとする。これにより、前記容器本体の可撓性シート材よりなる上部体を、外部より支え、かつ保護できる。 In the fluid transport container, the outer frame is provided with side plates that cover at least four side surfaces of the upper body of the container body. Thereby, the upper body which consists of a flexible sheet material of the said container main body can be supported and protected from the exterior.
 上記したように、本発明の流体輸送コンテナによれば、容器本体の底部を含む下部体、あるいは底部と側面下部領域を含む下部体を、流体が通過可能な多孔体よりなる内壁と非通液性の板材よりなる外壁との二重壁構造にして、内外壁間に流体が流通できる間隙を保有し、外壁における底部に流体の出入用口部を設けたことにより、収納された内部の流体が粘性の高い高粘性流体であっても、出入用口部付近の中央部のみでなく周辺部からも同時に排出できて、流体排出をスムーズに行うことができる。しかも、内部流体の減少に伴って、流体上面が全体として略均等に降下し、これに追従して可撓性シート材よりなる上部体が下部体に沿うように畳まれても前記出入用口部に吸い込まれることがなく、最後まで殆ど残さずに流体を排出することができる。 As described above, according to the fluid transport container of the present invention, the lower body including the bottom of the container main body, or the lower body including the bottom and the side surface lower region, the inner wall made of a porous body through which the fluid can pass and the liquid non-permeable. The inner wall of the housed by having a double wall structure with an outer wall made of a conductive plate material, having a gap through which fluid can flow between the inner and outer walls, and providing a fluid inlet / outlet at the bottom of the outer wall Even if it is a highly viscous fluid having a high viscosity, it can be discharged simultaneously not only from the central part near the entrance / exit port but also from the peripheral part, and the fluid can be discharged smoothly. Moreover, as the internal fluid decreases, the upper surface of the fluid descends substantially evenly, and the upper and lower openings made of a flexible sheet material follow the above and the entrance / exit port is folded. The fluid can be discharged without being sucked into the part and hardly remaining until the end.
 次に本発明を実施するための最良の形態を図面に示す実施例に基づいて説明する。 Next, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described based on an embodiment shown in the drawings.

It is sectional drawing of the state near discharge completion.
 本発明に係る流体輸送コンテナAは、輸送対象の流体、例えば高粘性流体を収納する容器本体1と、該容器本体1を支持する外枠3とよりなり、通常、前記外枠3の下部にはパレット部4が一体に設けられている。 The fluid transport container A according to the present invention includes a container main body 1 that stores a fluid to be transported, for example, a highly viscous fluid, and an outer frame 3 that supports the container main body 1. The pallet part 4 is integrally provided.
 前記容器本体1は、図4に示すように、金属等の剛性を有する素材により形成され、かつ少なくとも底部10aを含んでなる下部体10、好ましくは底部10aとこれに連続する側面下部領域10bを含んでなる下部体10と、前記下部体10の上端部にシール状態に固着された非通液性の可撓性シート材よりなる上部体20とから構成されてなり、前記下部体10の底部10aに出入用口部11が設けられている。符号5は前記出入用口部11に連結された流体の充填及び排出用管である。 As shown in FIG. 4, the container body 1 is formed of a material having rigidity such as metal and includes a lower body 10 including at least a bottom 10a, preferably a bottom 10a and a side lower region 10b continuous therewith. The lower body 10 includes a lower body 10 and an upper body 20 made of a non-liquid-permeable flexible sheet material fixed to the upper end of the lower body 10 in a sealed state. The entrance / exit part 11 is provided in 10a. Reference numeral 5 denotes a fluid filling and discharging pipe connected to the inlet / outlet port 11.
 前記上部体20は、側面上部領域20bと天部20aとの有天筒状をなしており、天部20aの一部にキャップ付きの空気抜き用の口部21が設けられている。この上部体20を構成する非通液性の可撓性シート材としては、ポリエチレンフィルム等の合成樹脂フィルムの単層もしくは複層のシートのほか、これらのシートを繊維で補強した形態のターポリン等の防水性シート、あるいはこれらと他の素材シートとの組み合わせよりなる複合シート、あるいはゴム製の袋材等の非通液性で可撓性のある各種のシート材を用いることができ、特に繰り返し使用に耐えるシート材を用いるのが好ましい。 The upper body 20 has a cylindrical shape with a side surface upper region 20b and a top portion 20a, and a mouth portion 21 with an air vent with a cap is provided on a part of the top portion 20a. Examples of the non-liquid-permeable flexible sheet material constituting the upper body 20 include a single-layer or multi-layer sheet of a synthetic resin film such as a polyethylene film, and tarpaulins in a form in which these sheets are reinforced with fibers. Water-resistant sheets, composite sheets made of combinations of these with other material sheets, or various non-liquid-permeable and flexible sheet materials such as rubber bag materials, etc. It is preferable to use a sheet material that can withstand use.
 前記下部体10は、内外二重壁構造をなし、このうち内壁12は、少なくとも底部10aよりなる下部体、好ましくは図のように前記底部10aと側面下部領域10bとよりなる下部体10の全域にわたって輸送対象の高粘性流体が通過可能な多孔体、すなわち、流体が通過できる開孔を多数有する多孔体よりなり、また、外壁13は、ステンレス鋼板やその他の金属製等の適度に剛性を有する板材により液密に形成されてなり、前記内外壁12,13間に高粘性流体が通過できる所要の間隙Sを有している。前記間隙Sは、前記内壁12を構成する多孔体の開孔率や流体の粘性等によっても異なるが、例えば10~30mm好ましくは15~25mm程度とする。 The lower body 10 has an inner / outer double wall structure, and the inner wall 12 is a lower body comprising at least a bottom 10a, preferably the entire lower body 10 comprising the bottom 10a and a side lower region 10b as shown in the figure. A porous body through which a highly viscous fluid to be transported can pass, that is, a porous body having many openings through which the fluid can pass, and the outer wall 13 has moderate rigidity such as a stainless steel plate or other metal. It is formed liquid-tight by a plate material, and has a required gap S between the inner and outer walls 12 and 13 through which a highly viscous fluid can pass. The gap S varies depending on the open area ratio of the porous body constituting the inner wall 12 and the viscosity of the fluid, but is, for example, about 10 to 30 mm, preferably about 15 to 25 mm.
 前記内壁12は、前記外壁13の内面に対し脱着可能にかつ前記間隙Sを保有するように取り付けられている。その手段として、前記外壁13の内面における底部及び側面下部領域における所要個所にスペーサーとしての役目をなすナット部材14を溶接等の手段により固設しておいて、該ナット部材14に対し内壁12を貫通して螺合するボルト等のネジ部材15により前記内壁12を固定しており、前記ネジ部材15を抜脱することにより内壁12を外壁13から分離できるようになっている。前記内壁12は、多孔体により一体に形成しておくこともできるが、外壁13に対する分離を容易にするため、底部と四面の側面下部領域等の複数部分に分割構成しておくのが望ましい。 The inner wall 12 is attached to the inner surface of the outer wall 13 so as to be removable and to hold the gap S. As a means for this, a nut member 14 serving as a spacer is fixed to a required portion in the bottom and side lower regions of the inner surface of the outer wall 13 by means such as welding, and the inner wall 12 is attached to the nut member 14. The inner wall 12 is fixed by a screw member 15 such as a bolt that penetrates and is screwed, and the inner wall 12 can be separated from the outer wall 13 by removing the screw member 15. The inner wall 12 can be integrally formed of a porous body, but it is desirable to divide the inner wall 12 into a plurality of parts such as a bottom portion and four side surface lower regions in order to facilitate separation from the outer wall 13.
 前記内壁12を構成する多孔体としては、輸送対象の流体、特には高粘性流体が通過できる開孔12aが全域にわたって多数形成されているパンチングメタル等の多孔板又は網体が好適に用いられる。中でも、パンチングメタル等の丸孔や角孔の縦横の少なくとも一方向の並列、あるいは千鳥並列、長孔の並列、異形孔の並列等による金属製の多孔板が特に好適に用いられる。もちろん、他の素材の多孔板、金属製の網体、簾状網体、剛性のある合成樹脂材の網体、その他の種々の多孔板や網体を用いることができる。 As the porous body constituting the inner wall 12, a perforated plate or a net body such as a punching metal in which a large number of apertures 12a through which a fluid to be transported, in particular, a highly viscous fluid can pass, is formed is preferably used. Among them, a metal perforated plate such as a punching metal or the like in which the round holes and the square holes are arranged in at least one direction in the vertical and horizontal directions, or in a staggered arrangement, a parallel arrangement of long holes, and a parallel arrangement of deformed holes is particularly preferably used. Of course, other materials such as a perforated plate, a metal net, a cage net, a rigid synthetic resin net, and various other perforated plates and nets can be used.
 前記多孔体の開孔12aの開孔率、すなわち孔径や配列ピッチ、開孔密度等については、輸送対象の流体の粘性等に応じて適宜設定できる。例えば、開孔12aが直径10~40mmの丸孔のパンチングメタルの場合、並列ピッチ20~50mm、孔間隔5~30mmとする。もちろん、前記以外の開孔径や配列による実施も可能である。前記多孔体の開孔率は、下部体の全面にわたって同一である必要はなく、中央部と周辺部で開孔率を異ならせる等、部分的に開孔率を異ならせることができる。 The aperture ratio of the apertures 12a of the porous body, that is, the pore diameter, the arrangement pitch, the aperture density, and the like can be appropriately set according to the viscosity of the fluid to be transported. For example, when the holes 12a are punched metal having a round hole with a diameter of 10 to 40 mm, the parallel pitch is 20 to 50 mm and the hole interval is 5 to 30 mm. Of course, it is also possible to implement with other hole diameters and arrangements than those described above. The porosity of the porous body need not be the same over the entire surface of the lower body, and the porosity can be partially varied, for example, by varying the aperture ratio between the central portion and the peripheral portion.
 前記外壁13の底部における中央部に前記出入用口部11が設けられている。図の場合、前記外壁13は、底部が前記出入用口部11に向かって四方から逆四角錐状に傾斜した漏斗状をなしており、また、前記多孔体よりなる内壁12は、前記外壁13と対応形状をなしてかつ前記出入用口部11を該口部との間に前記間隙Sを保ったまま全体を覆うように設けられている。すなわち、前記下部体10の底部10aが漏斗状をなし、流体排出時に前記内壁12を通過する流体が前記出入用口部11に流れ込み易くなっている。なお、前記底部10aの傾斜角度は、流体の流れ効果等を考慮して適宜設定できるが、傾斜角度が大きくなるほど収納効率が悪くなり、また傾斜角度が小さくなるほど流れ効果が得られなくなるので、実施上は前記出入用口部11を有する中央部に対する傾斜角度を15°~45°、好ましくは20°~30°とする。 The entrance / exit port 11 is provided at the center of the bottom of the outer wall 13. In the case of the figure, the outer wall 13 has a funnel shape in which the bottom portion is inclined in a reverse quadrangular pyramid shape from four directions toward the entrance / exit port portion 11, and the inner wall 12 made of the porous body is the outer wall 13. And the entrance / exit port 11 is provided so as to cover the whole while maintaining the gap S between the port 11 and the entrance / exit port 11. That is, the bottom 10a of the lower body 10 has a funnel shape, and the fluid passing through the inner wall 12 easily flows into the inlet / outlet port 11 when the fluid is discharged. The inclination angle of the bottom portion 10a can be appropriately set in consideration of the fluid flow effect, etc., but the storage efficiency becomes worse as the inclination angle becomes larger, and the flow effect cannot be obtained as the inclination angle becomes smaller. In the upper part, the inclination angle with respect to the central part having the entrance / exit port 11 is 15 ° to 45 °, preferably 20 ° to 30 °.
 前記出入用口部11には、図2に拡大して示すように、前記充填及び排出用管5を接続するための筒状の接続用口部材16が溶接等の手段により一体的に取設されており、該口部材16の筒端部と、前記充填及び排出用管5の管端部とが、クランプ式の連結手段7により、パッキン(図示省略)を介して突き合わせ状態にして液密に連結されるようになっている。前記充填及び排出用管5は、エルボ形の管体51に開閉バルブ52を備えるとともに、圧送用のポンプを備える他の配管やホース等(図示せず)が接続可能な口金具53を備えてなる。前記充填及び排出用管5は、前記口部材16に連結されてパレット部4上に押さえ部材を含む取付具6により固定される。 As shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 2, a cylindrical connection port member 16 for connecting the filling and discharging pipes 5 is integrally attached to the access port 11 by means such as welding. The tube end portion of the mouth member 16 and the tube end portion of the filling and discharging tube 5 are brought into butt contact with each other via a packing (not shown) by a clamp-type connecting means 7. To be connected to. The filling and discharging pipe 5 is provided with an open / close valve 52 on an elbow-shaped pipe body 51 and a fitting 53 to which other pipes or hoses (not shown) having a pump for pressure feeding can be connected. Become. The filling and discharging pipe 5 is connected to the mouth member 16 and fixed on the pallet portion 4 by a fixture 6 including a pressing member.
 前記下部体10の側面下部領域10bの立ち上がりの高さHは、容器本体1内の周辺部での流体の排出効果等を考慮して、容器本体1の側面高さの1/2以下の範囲で、内部の流体が略完全に排出された状態において、前記上部体20を構成するシート材が内壁12の内面全体に沿って接した状態になるように適宜設定できるが、実施上は、前記上部体20のシート材が前記内壁12の内面に沿って接した状態において過度の重なりを生じないように、前記容器本体1の側面高さの1/5以上でかつ1/2以下に設定しておくのが好ましい。 The rising height H of the lower side surface region 10b of the lower body 10 is in a range of ½ or less of the side surface height of the container body 1 in consideration of the effect of discharging the fluid at the peripheral portion in the container body 1 and the like. Thus, in a state where the internal fluid is almost completely discharged, the sheet material constituting the upper body 20 can be appropriately set so as to be in contact with the entire inner surface of the inner wall 12. The height of the side surface of the container body 1 is set to 1/5 or more and 1/2 or less so that the sheet material of the upper body 20 is not excessively overlapped in a state where the sheet material is in contact with the inner surface of the inner wall 12. It is preferable to keep it.
 すなわち、前記下部体10の前記内壁12を構成する多孔体の開孔12aにより少なくとも底部10aの全域において同時に排出できるため、前記下部体10の側面下部領域10bの底部周縁からの立ち上がりの高さHが、容器本体1の側面高さの1/5より低くても、流体の均等排出の効果は得られるが、側面下部領域10bの高さHがあまり低くなると、可撓性シート材よりなる上部体20が、内部流体の排出により内壁に沿って密着した状態において余裕があり過ぎて重なりが増加することになるので、前記の範囲とするのがより好ましい。 That is, since the porous body opening 12a constituting the inner wall 12 of the lower body 10 can simultaneously discharge at least the entire area of the bottom 10a, the rising height H from the bottom edge of the side surface lower region 10b of the lower body 10 However, even if the height of the side surface of the container body 1 is lower than 1/5, the effect of uniform fluid discharge can be obtained. However, if the height H of the side surface lower region 10b is too low, the upper portion made of the flexible sheet material is used. In the state where the body 20 is in close contact with the inner wall due to the discharge of the internal fluid, there is too much room and the overlap increases, so the above range is more preferable.
 前記上部体20を下部体10の上端部に対して液密に固着する手段として、図3に拡大して示すように、下部体10の側面下部領域10bの上端部、特に外壁13の上端部に取付用枠部材18が溶接手段により固設され、該枠部材18の上面にゴム等のシール材19を配して、上部体20を構成する可撓性シート材の下端部22を前記シール材19と押さえ用枠部材23との間に挟み込んで、長さ方向に所定のピッチ間隔(例えば50mm間隔)でネジ締結手段24により締結しており、該ネジ締結手段24による締め付けを解除することにより取り外すことができ、上部体20を構成するシート材の取り換えが可能になっている。前記のネジ締結手段24として、図の場合は、前記枠部材18にネジ軸部24aを突設し、このネジ軸部24aに対して前記シール材19及びシート材の下端部22並びに押さえ用枠部材23を、それぞれに有する係合孔の部分で嵌め合せてナット24bにより締め付けるように設けている。他の種々の固定手段、例えば接着手段あるいはリベット式の止め手段等を利用して固着することができる。 As means for fixing the upper body 20 to the upper end of the lower body 10 in a liquid-tight manner, as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 3, the upper end of the side lower region 10 b of the lower body 10, particularly the upper end of the outer wall 13. A mounting frame member 18 is fixed by welding means, and a sealing material 19 such as rubber is disposed on the upper surface of the frame member 18 so that the lower end portion 22 of the flexible sheet material constituting the upper body 20 is sealed. It is sandwiched between the material 19 and the pressing frame member 23 and fastened by the screw fastening means 24 at a predetermined pitch interval (for example, 50 mm interval) in the length direction, and the fastening by the screw fastening means 24 is released. The sheet material constituting the upper body 20 can be replaced. As the screw fastening means 24, in the case shown in the figure, a screw shaft portion 24a is projected from the frame member 18, and the sealing material 19, the lower end portion 22 of the sheet material, and a pressing frame are provided with respect to the screw shaft portion 24a. The members 23 are provided so as to be fitted to each other at the engagement hole portions and tightened by the nuts 24b. It can be fixed by using other various fixing means such as an adhesive means or a rivet type stop means.
 前記の容器本体1は、剛性のある下部体10の部分で外枠3に一体的に組み込んで構成しておくことも、また、前記下部体10の周縁部を外枠3における下部の底受枠31により受支するようにして、外枠3に対して脱着可能に設けることもできる。図示する実施例は、前記容器本体1を外枠3に対し組み込んで脱着可能に構成した場合を示している。 The container body 1 may be configured by being integrally incorporated in the outer frame 3 at a rigid lower body 10 portion, and the bottom edge of the lower body 10 may be a bottom receiving frame of the lower body 10. It can also be provided so as to be detachable with respect to the outer frame 3 so as to be supported by 31. The illustrated embodiment shows a case where the container body 1 is incorporated into the outer frame 3 and is detachable.
 図の実施例において、前記外枠3は、前記パレット部4上において、前記容器本体1の下部体10を受支する底受枠31と、該底受枠31の上に連結されて前記容器本体1の上部体20の四方側面を覆う側板32a,32b,32c,32dと、組み立てられた前記側板上に脱着可能に被着される上蓋としての上枠33とからなる。 In the illustrated embodiment, the outer frame 3 is connected to the bottom receiving frame 31 for receiving the lower body 10 of the container main body 1 and the bottom receiving frame 31 on the pallet portion 4. The side plates 32a, 32b, 32c, and 32d that cover the four side surfaces of the upper body 20 and the upper frame 33 as an upper lid that is detachably attached to the assembled side plates.
 前記底受枠31は、パレット部4の四隅部に立設された支持柱34の所要高さ位置において四方側面に沿って前記支持柱34,34間に横桟状の受枠部材35が架渡されて枠状をなしている。そして、前記受枠部材35が、図3に拡大して示すように、内側下部より内方向きに前記下部体10の底部10aの傾斜に対応して斜めに突出する受板部35aを有する断面略L字状をなしており、該受板部35aにより、外枠3内に上方より落とし込まれセットされる容器本体1の下部体10を周縁部で受支できるようになっている。 In the bottom receiving frame 31, a horizontal frame-like receiving frame member 35 is bridged between the supporting columns 34, 34 along the four side surfaces at the required height positions of the supporting columns 34 erected at the four corners of the pallet portion 4. It has a frame shape. And as the said receiving frame member 35 expands and shows in FIG. 3, the cross-sectional view which has the receiving plate part 35a which protrudes diagonally corresponding to the inclination of the bottom part 10a of the said lower body 10 inward from an inner lower part. The lower plate 10 of the container body 1 that is dropped into the outer frame 3 from the upper side and set by the receiving plate portion 35a can be supported by the peripheral edge portion by the receiving plate portion 35a.
 図の場合、前記支持柱34が受枠部材35より上方に延び、その上端部に設けられた側枠部36が、前記のように受支される容器本体1の下部体10の上端部と略同高さにあるように設けられている。記受板部35aは、前記下部体10の底部10aの出入用口部11を除く略全面を受支するように設けることもできるが、前記下部体10が金属等の剛性素材であれば、前記底部10aの略全面を受支する必要はなく、図示するように下部体10の周縁部を受支するようにして実施することができる。 In the case of the figure, the support pillar 34 extends above the receiving frame member 35, and the side frame portion 36 provided at the upper end thereof is substantially the same as the upper end of the lower body 10 of the container body 1 received and supported as described above. It is provided to be at the same height. The recording plate portion 35a can be provided so as to support substantially the entire surface of the bottom portion 10a of the lower body 10 except for the entrance / exit port 11, but if the lower body 10 is a rigid material such as metal, It is not necessary to support substantially the entire surface of the bottom portion 10a, and the bottom portion 10a can be implemented so as to receive the peripheral portion of the lower body 10 as shown.
 いずれにしても、前記のように容器本体1の下部体10を底受枠31上に受支する場合は、受支した下部体10のガタつきや浮き上がりを抑制するように、前記下部体10を外枠3に係止する係脱可能なロック手段(図示省略)を設けておくのが望ましい。 In any case, when the lower body 10 of the container main body 1 is received and supported on the bottom receiving frame 31 as described above, the lower body 10 is adjusted so as to prevent rattling or lifting of the received lower body 10. It is desirable to provide a lock means (not shown) that can be engaged and disengaged with the outer frame 3.
 前記外枠3の四方の側板32a,32b,32c,32dは、それぞれ枠部材の内方に金属板や合成樹脂板、あるいはパーティクルボード等の各種のボード類その他の剛性を有する板材が内面を形成するように張設されたパネル体よりなり、前記容器本体1の上部体20を外部より支える役目を果たすように設けられている。前記各側板32a,32b,32c,32dは、それぞれ前記底受枠31の上部に連結されて立設され、かつ隣接する側板同士が相互に連結されて、平面矩形に組み立てられる。前記各側板32a,32b,32c,32dは、通常、前記底受枠31に対し分離可能に連結される。 The four side plates 32a, 32b, 32c, and 32d of the outer frame 3 each have an inner surface formed of various types of boards such as a metal plate, a synthetic resin plate, or a particle board, or other rigid members, inside the frame member. The panel body is stretched so as to be provided, and is provided to support the upper body 20 of the container body 1 from the outside. Each of the side plates 32a, 32b, 32c, 32d is connected to the upper portion of the bottom receiving frame 31 and erected, and adjacent side plates are connected to each other to be assembled into a planar rectangle. The side plates 32a, 32b, 32c, and 32d are normally connected to the bottom receiving frame 31 in a separable manner.
 図の場合、四面の側板32a,32b,32c,32dのうちの1面、例えば正面より見て左右一方の側板32bは、前記側枠部36に対しヒンジ部37を介して外側に折曲可能に連結されて開放できるように設けられており、該容器本体1のセット作業や洗浄あるいは容器本体1の上部体20の取り換え作業等を、前記の開放部分から行えるようになっている。 In the case of the figure, one of the four side plates 32a, 32b, 32c, 32d, for example, one of the left and right side plates 32b as viewed from the front, can be bent outwardly with respect to the side frame portion 36 through a hinge portion 37. The container main body 1 can be set and cleaned, or the upper body 20 of the container main body 1 can be replaced from the open portion.
 なお、前記各側板32a,32b,32c,32dについては、前記容器本体1の下部体10の上端部とほぼ同高さ位置にある側枠部36に対して順次高さを変えて内側へ折曲可能に連結し、輸送先からの空のコンテナの返送あるいは保管等の際には、容器本体1をセットした状態のままで嵩低く折り畳んでおけるように構成することもできる。また、前記各側板32a,32b,32c,32dは、前記底受枠31の側枠部36を省略して、前記受枠部材35の上に連結されて、底受枠31の側面を覆うように設けて実施することもできる。 The side plates 32a, 32b, 32c, and 32d are folded inward by sequentially changing the height with respect to the side frame portion 36 that is substantially at the same height as the upper end portion of the lower body 10 of the container body 1. It is also possible to configure such that the container body 1 can be folded with a low bulk while the container body 1 is set when returning or storing an empty container from a transportation destination. The side plates 32 a, 32 b, 32 c, and 32 d are provided so as to be connected to the receiving frame member 35 and cover the side surfaces of the bottom receiving frame 31, omitting the side frame portion 36 of the bottom receiving frame 31. It can also be implemented.
 上記の構成による流体輸送コンテナAは、グリース、印刷インキ、接着剤、塗料、マヨネーズ等の流動性食品その他の各種の流体、特には粘性の高い高粘性流体を輸送するのに使用するものであり、二重壁構造の下部体10とその上に連結した可撓性シート材よりなる上部体20とよりなる容器本体1を、予め所定の形状に組み立てた外枠3内に装入し、前記下部体10の周縁部を外枠3の底受枠31に有する受枠部材35で受支するようにセットする。前記下部体10の底部10aにおける出入用口部11に有する口部材16には、充填及び排出用管5をクランプ式の連結手段7により液密に連結して、取付具6によりパレット部4上に固定しておく。 The fluid transport container A configured as described above is used for transporting fluid foods such as grease, printing ink, adhesives, paints, mayonnaise, and other various fluids, especially highly viscous fluids. The container body 1 composed of the lower body 10 having a double wall structure and the upper body 20 made of a flexible sheet material connected to the lower body 10 is inserted into the outer frame 3 assembled in advance in a predetermined shape. The lower body 10 is set so that the peripheral edge of the lower body 10 is supported by the receiving frame member 35 provided on the bottom receiving frame 31 of the outer frame 3. A filling and discharging pipe 5 is connected in a liquid-tight manner by a clamp-type connecting means 7 to a mouth member 16 provided in the entrance / exit part 11 in the bottom part 10 a of the lower body 10. It is fixed to.
 輸送対象の流体、特に高粘性流体の充填は、前記充填及び排出用管5に接続した配管に備える圧送用ポンプ(図示せず)により圧送し前記容器本体1内に充填し収納する。このとき、ポンプにより圧送される流体は、容器本体1の二重壁構造をなす下部体10の底部10aに有する出入用口部11から二重壁の内壁12と外壁13との間に入り、内外壁12,13間の間隙Sを通じて周辺部に拡がり、底部10a及び側面下部領域10bの全域において、多孔体よりなる内壁12の開孔12aを通じて容器本体1内に送り込まれ充填される。この充填作用に伴って、折り畳まれた状態にあった可撓性シート材よりなる上部体20が外枠3の四方側面の側板32a,32b,32c,32dに沿うように膨らみ、ついには充填された流体(図示省略)により図1のように膨らんだ状態に保持される。 The filling of the fluid to be transported, particularly the highly viscous fluid, is carried out by being pumped by a pump (not shown) provided in a pipe connected to the filling and discharging pipe 5 and filled and stored in the container body 1. At this time, the fluid pumped by the pump enters between the inner wall 12 and the outer wall 13 of the double wall from the inlet / outlet port 11 at the bottom 10a of the lower body 10 forming the double wall structure of the container body 1, It spreads to the peripheral part through the gap S between the inner and outer walls 12 and 13, and is sent and filled into the container body 1 through the openings 12a of the inner wall 12 made of a porous body over the entire bottom part 10a and side surface lower region 10b. With this filling operation, the upper body 20 made of the flexible sheet material in the folded state swells along the side plates 32a, 32b, 32c, and 32d on the four side surfaces of the outer frame 3, and is finally filled. It is held in a swelled state as shown in FIG. 1 by a fluid (not shown).
 そして、輸送先において、内容物の流体を排出する際、前記充填及び排出用管5に接続した配管に備える圧送用ポンプの吸引力で送出を行う。このとき、前記ポンプの吸引力で、容器本体1の下部体10に有する出入用口部11から流体が吸引されると、このポンプによる吸引力が二重壁構造の内外壁12,13間の間隙Sにより少なくとも底部10aの全域、実施例の場合は側面下部領域10bの全域にまで及び、内部の流体が前記多孔体よりなる内壁12の開孔12aを通じて同時に一斉に吸引されて、前記内外壁間の間隙から出入用口部に流れ排出される。 And when discharging the fluid of the contents at the transport destination, it is sent out by the suction force of the pump for pumping provided in the pipe connected to the filling and discharging pipe 5. At this time, when the fluid is sucked from the inlet / outlet port 11 of the lower body 10 of the container body 1 by the suction force of the pump, the suction force by the pump is generated between the inner and outer walls 12 and 13 of the double wall structure. The gap S extends to at least the entire area of the bottom 10a, in the case of the embodiment, to the entire area of the lower side area 10b, and the internal fluid is simultaneously sucked through the openings 12a of the inner wall 12 made of the porous body. It flows from the gap between them to the entrance / exit, and is discharged.
 そのため、収容されている流体が高粘性流体であっても、前記の排出により、前記容器本体1内における流体の上面(液面)が全体的に略同時に降下するように減少し、この流体上面の降下に追従して、可撓性シート材よりなる上部体20の天部20aが潰れるように降下するが、可撓性シート材よりなる上部体20が局部的に吸い込まれることがない。その上、内部の流体の上面が前記下部体10の側面下部領域10bの高さより低くなり残量が少なくなるのに伴って、前記上部体20が下部体10の側面下部領域10b及び底部10aの内面に沿うように吸引されて密着するが、この際、下部体10の内壁12の全域で吸引されることになるため、仮に、一部が内壁12の一部に密着して一部の開孔12aを塞ぐことがあっても、外壁13に形成された出入用口部11を塞ぐことはない。それゆえ、前記出入用口部11から内外壁12,13間の間隙Sを通じて他の開孔12aより吸引排出作用が行われ、その結果、最後まで流体排出を良好に行うことができ、流体が殆ど残存することがない。 Therefore, even if the contained fluid is a highly viscous fluid, the upper surface (liquid level) of the fluid in the container main body 1 is reduced so as to drop substantially at the same time due to the discharge. The top body 20a of the upper body 20 made of the flexible sheet material descends so as to collapse, but the upper body 20 made of the flexible sheet material is not sucked locally. In addition, as the upper surface of the internal fluid becomes lower than the height of the lower side surface region 10b of the lower body 10 and the remaining amount decreases, the upper body 20 moves to the side surface lower region 10b and the bottom portion 10a of the lower body 10. At this time, suction is performed along the inner surface, and the entire inner wall 12 of the lower body 10 is sucked at this time. Even if the hole 12a is blocked, the entrance / exit 11 formed in the outer wall 13 is not blocked. Therefore, a suction / discharge action is performed from the other opening 12a through the gap S between the inner / outer walls 12 and 13 from the entrance / exit port 11, and as a result, the fluid can be discharged satisfactorily until the end. Almost no residue.
 なお、前記の流体輸送コンテナAを繰り返し使用する場合、収容する流体に応じて前記容器本体1内を洗浄して再使用することも、また洗浄せずに再使用することもできる。例えば、グリース等の場合は、前記容器本体1内を洗浄せずに繰り返し使用することができる。 In addition, when the fluid transport container A is repeatedly used, the inside of the container body 1 can be washed and reused according to the contained fluid, or can be reused without washing. For example, in the case of grease or the like, it can be used repeatedly without cleaning the inside of the container body 1.
 本発明は、グリース、印刷インキ、接着剤、塗料、マヨネーズ等の流動性食品その他の粘性の高い高粘性流体の輸送に好適に使用できる。 The present invention can be suitably used for transporting fluid food such as grease, printing ink, adhesive, paint, mayonnaise and other highly viscous fluids.
