Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container with a lid, wherein the container has a container wall with an upper edge region, a container bottom and a container opening and in the edge region of the container opening a circumferential, opposite the container wall radially inwardly projecting frame to which the lid is releasably attached: and wherein the frame is snap-fastened to the edge region of the container opening, to which the frame and the upper edge region of the container wall are provided with cooperating Rastmrtteln, and wherein the frame has a peripheral outer region in the form of a downwardly open U-profile, which receives the upper edge region of the container wall and which has a peripheral web surrounding the container wall and an inside web, wherein the with. the container cooperating latching means of the frame are arranged on one of the two webs.
  • the frame to which the lid is attached thus made as a separate component, wherein for closing the container, the frame is latching to be attached to the container edge.
  • the lid can be preassembled on the frame or the lid is fixed to the frame only after attachment of the frame to the container.
  • a problem with generic containers is that a on the one hand the attachment of the frame to the container is very simple and should be automated by suitable machines, for example in automatic filling systems, on the other hand, the attachment between the container and the frame must be very stable.
  • Conventional containers, in which the lid is attached to a separate frame, but are usually made without outside circumferential flange, as it is often common in containers of containers in which the lid is attached directly to the container, for stabilizing the upper container edge area Due to the fact that the flange usually disappears in the case of generic containers with frames, the upper container region is relatively flexible, which is often further promoted by the fact that the container rim is provided with regions of lesser material thickness, for example in order to enable a latching connection with the frame.
  • the attachment area between the container and frame on the outside of the container should meet high visual requirements, i. have little or preferably no visible transition areas between the frame and container.
  • the invention is based on the object, a generic container with lid and latching attached to the container frame to provide, in which the latching connection between the container and the frame is easily accomplished by handling machines and handling robots and yet is stable.
  • a container with lid and frame according to claim 1, wherein one of the webs has a first contact area, which comes when vertical locking of the frame with the upper edge of the container area first by applying radial forces on this for abutment, and wherein the opposite
  • the web of the frame U-profile has a peripheral region which extends up to or below the first abutment region, which surrounds the first abutment region on the opposite side of the container wall and / or absorbs radial deformations of the container rim due to the radial forces exerted by the first abutment region.
  • the web of the frame U-profile which lies opposite the latching means of the frame can be up to or below the web area which has the latching means of the frame interacting with the container wall and which with the associated latching means of the container first engages when the frame is snapped on interacts, extending in the direction of the container bottom, so that when attaching the frame, a region of the locking means opposite web surrounds the upper edge of the container on the opposite side of the locking means, if or before the locking means of the container wall with the Rastmrttel having land portion of the frame come to interact.
  • the container snap edge can thus be arranged directly on the upper edge of the container.
  • the lower edge of one of the webs of the frame U-profile receiving the container catch rim thus overlaps the container catching edge before a region of the frame U-profile comes into contact with the container catching edge and can deform the upper container edge, or is arranged with the container latching edge at least at the same height, so that both webs come to rest almost simultaneously with the container latching edge and the opposite side of the upper container edge, so that through the lower edge of the web a kind of abutment or guide for the container top edge or the upper container edge is provided for the further latching operation.
  • This can generally be considered within the scope of the invention.
  • a deformation or dodging of the upper edge of the container, which would complicate or prevent clogging, is hereby prevented or reduced.
  • a snapping of the frame is also possible by robots easily and trouble-free.
  • the frame may be designed so that first the lower edge of the outer circumferential web of the frame engages over the upper container edge, so that bulging of the container edge is prevented radially outwardly by the cross frame web.

Only after this positive fixation of the upper edge of the container advantageously the locking means of frame and container are then brought together to attack and then locked together by further vertical pressing of the frame on the container frame and container wall. In this case, a certain deformation of the upper container edge region and / or the frame region, on which the latching means are provided, take place.
  • the latching means of the container and frame can be brought almost automatically and also by machine use with each other for engagement, since the upper edge of the container can not dodge because of the overarching frame web relative to the frame to the outside. Due to the possibility of an automatic machine vaulting of the frame and container, the containers can be handled and filled particularly easily and economically.

  • the outer circumferential fende web of the frame U-profile no locking means are arranged on the radially inner web of the frame.
  • the radially outer side of the frame or of the outer web can then be produced in an optimally smooth manner and without optical defects in order to give the container an appearance which corresponds to the highest optical requirements. This is attributed to the fact that the radially outer cooperating regions of the container wall and the frame are particularly accurate to produce, as here further profiling such as by locking lugs or by locking recesses are unnecessary.

  • the web can rest against the container wall at the level of the constriction, preferably radially on the outside, so that the frame Ü profile rests radially inwardly and outwardly on the container edge below the detent means and thus a particularly stable detent connection is formed.
