DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
Referring to the Figures, a fluid guiding arrangement for intermediate bulk containers in accordance with the invention, generally indicated by reference numeral 10, is shown.
The fluid guiding arrangement 10 for the bulk handling of fluid material, includes a fluid guiding member 12 having a spiral shape and made of plastics and being located in a bag 14.
The fluid guiding member 12 is adapted to create channels to assist the residual in the bag 14 to be discharged or decanted.
The fluid guiding member 12 can also include and/or consist of a coil and/or spring and/or spiral and/or flexible perforated material and/or porous material.
The fluid guiding member 12 is adapted to be inserted into the inner bag 14 to ensure that the product is sucked towards the product outlet 16 even once the inner bag 14 starts to clog up the product outlet 16. The fluid guiding member 12 is located in close proximity to the product outlet 16.
The fluid guiding member 12 is connected and/or joined to the product outlet 16.
The fluid guiding member 12 can be removably connected and/or joined to the product outlet.
The fluid guiding member 12 can be tubular or sheet material.
The channels can be located inside and/or outside and/or adjacent to the fluid guiding member 12.
The main function of the fluid guiding member 12 is to reduce the residual in the bag 14 during discharging or decanting of fluid material.
The fluid guiding member 12 is adapted to be located within an inner bag 14 for holding fluid material.
The inner bag 14 has a product inlet through which the fluid material can be introduced into the inner bag 14 and a product outlet 16 through which the fluid material can flow from the inner bag 14, and being adapted to assist in forcing the fluid material out of the inner bag 14 through the product outlet 16.
A surrounding member surrounds the inner bag 14 and is adapted to form at least one air pocket or air compartment between the surrounding member and the inner bag 14. The pocket has an air inlet through which air can be introduced into the pocket and thereby putting pressure on the inner bag 14 to force the fluid material out of the inner bag 14 through the product outlet 16. The fluid guiding arrangement 10 can be a loose part, namely the fluid guiding member 12, placed and mounted inside the inner bag 14 in the final stages of the inner bag 14 assembly process. The inner bag 14 will be closed off with fluid guiding member 12 inside, packed and shipped to a customer ready to use. The main function of the fluid guiding member 12 is to reduce the residual fluid material in the inner bag 14 during the decanting process. During the decanting process the lining of the inner bag 14 folds on the bottom of the Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) and creates pockets in which product is trapped. This increases the residual of the fluid material which cannot be pumped out of the inner bag 14. The fluid guiding member 12 in this case will serve the purpose of keeping the folded lining open during the decanting process and allowing the pump to pump the remainder of fluid material through the fluid guiding member 12 during the last stages of decanting. This will reduce the final residual fluid material in inner bag 14.
As mentioned above, the fluid guiding member 12 can be a loose device inserted into the inner bag 14.
The fluid guiding member 12 consists of plastics material.
The fluid guiding member 12 consists of an inert material.
The fluid guiding member 12 can be injection moulded.
The fluid guiding member 12 can be a one-piece integrally formed object.
The fluid guiding member 12 can be flexible.
The surrounding member consists of at least two layers. The surrounding member can have various air pockets or air compartments. The packaging container has a bladder shape.
The packaging container consists of transparent material to enable the fluids, pastes and/or powders to be visible from the outside.
The packaging box and/or packaging container is an intermediary bulk container (IBC).
The packaging container includes a liquid liner.
The fluid material can be powdery, paste-like, fluids and/or liquids.
The intermediate bulk container can have a capacity of 50 to 500 gallons or about 189 to 2000 litres.
The invention provides for a fluid guiding arrangement 10 for a packaging container for the handling of fluid material and being adapted to be located within an outer box and/or container, which includes
(a) an inner bag 14 adapted to hold fluid material, the inner bag 14 having a product inlet through which the fluid material can be introduced into the inner bag and a product outlet 16 through which the fluid material can flow from the inner bag 14;
(b) a surrounding member adapted to surround the inner bag 14 and adapted to form at least one air pocket or air compartment between the surrounding member and the inner bag 14, the pocket having an air inlet through which air can be introduced into the pocket and thereby putting pressure on the inner bag 14 to force the fluid material out of the inner bag 14 through the product outlet 16; and a fluid guiding member 12 located within the inner bag 14 to assist in forcing the fluid material out of the inner bag 14 through the product outlet 16.
