R~R~ROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention This invention pertains to a fibre drum, and more particularly, a drum with an integral skid to allow the drum to be handled by mechanized means. The drum also has features which allow several drums to be stacked safely.
Description of the Prior Art Fibre drums are frequently used for shipping and storing various goods. They are preferred in certain fields over other types of drums, such as metallic drums because they are lightweight, yet strong. Frequently, to save storage space, it is desirable to stack several drums on top of each other. However, the fibre drums produced until now had flat tops and bottoms and could not be stacked safely.
Another consideration for drums is that a filled drum can be quite heavy and must be handled by using mechanized means, such as fork lifts. However, fibre drums made until now could not be handled easily with fork lifts. Therefore, frequently fibre drums are mounted on external skids. However, these skids are expensive, and furthermore securing a drum to a skid is time consuming and may compromise the integrity of the drum.
OBJECTIVE8 AND 8UNMARY OF THE lNv~ lON
In view of the above-mentioned disadvantages of fibre drums, it is an objective of the present invention to provide a fibre drum with nesting means whereby several drums can be stacked on top of each other.
A further objective is to provide a drum with a built in skid so that it can be maneuvered easily using the mechanized means.
Yet a further objective is to provide an improved fibre drum which remains lightweight, strong, and is easy and efficient to make.
Other objectives and advantages of the invention shall become apparent from the following description of the invention.
Briefly, a fibre drum constructed in accordance with this invention comprises a drum body with a continuous sidewall means and a bottom, and a cover for covering the drum body. A lower skirt member is secured to the bottom, for example, by a band which partially overlaps both the drum body and the lower skirt member.
The lower skirt member is made with cutouts for engagement by a mechanized drum handling means such as a hydraulic lift. The cover may also be provided with an upper skirt. The upper and lower skirts are dimensioned so that they partially fit or telescope into each other to permit vertical stacking of the drums.

DETAILBD DE~CRIPTION OF THE lNv~:~.,lON
Referring now to the drawings, a fibre drum 10 constructed in accordance with this invention consists of a tubular body 12 with a continuous body sidewall 14, and a cover 16 with a continuous cover sidewall 18. The cover 16 fits over the body with the cover sidewall 18 overlapping and fitting tightly over the body sidewall 14 to form an interference fit therewith. Thus, the body and the cover cooperate to form a container for shipping and storing various dry, semi-liquid or liquid goods. If necessary, the drum may be sealed with a sealing tape (not shown) applied partially or fully on the interface between the cover and the body as shown in FIGURE 1. As shown in FIGURE 2, an upper skirt 20 is formed on the cover by taking, for example, a strip of material and securing it with an adhesive to an upper section of cover sidewall 18. The skirt 20 is disposed so that it extends above the top surface 22 to form a disk shaped cavity 24 therewith. Preferably skirt 20 is formed from the same material as the body 12 and cover 16.
The drum is also provided with a lower skirt 26 as follows. First a first bottom skirt member 28 is formed having an outer perimeter of the exact shape and size as the body sidewall 14. This member 28 is then placed adjacent to the bottom surface 30 of body 12 with the skirt member 28 forming an extension for the sidewall 14 as shown in FIGURE 2. A band 32 is then positioned to overlap both the skirt member 28 and a lower portion of body 12 to secure the skirt member 28 to body 12. Although band 32 may be made to form an interference fit with both the skirt member 28 and the lower portion of the body 12, preferably, band 32 is secured adhesively to these elements. Thus, lower skirt 26 is formed of skirt member 28 and band 32. Lastly on two opposite sides of the lower skirt, two corresponding cutouts 34, 36 are made. These cutouts are sized and shaped to permit the drum to be lifted and manipulated by mechanized means such as a hydraulic lift.
Preferably the skirt member 28 has a section which extends below the band 32 to form a section 38 therebetween. The purpose of this shoulder is explained below. Thus, the lower skirt provides in effect a built in skid, thereby eliminating the need for external and more expensive external skids. In addition, the upper and lower skirts 20, 26 reinforce the drum and furthermore cooperate to allow several drums to be stacked vertically as described more fully below. In the embodiment shown in FIGURES 4 - 6, the sidewall of the drum 10 is continuous, consisting of four substantially equal sections having a very large radius of curvature around the vertical axis of the drum, such as section A
in FIGURE 4. These sections are joined by four sections, such as section B, having a much smaller radius of curvature. The resulting structure is similar to a container having a square cross-section, and shares its advantages in that it utilizes space more efficiently. However, such a container is easier to make than a square container, it is stronger, and it lacks sharp corners which are easily damaged.
.~.
FIGURE 6 further shows a drum 10 with its cutouts 34 being engaged by the tines 40 of a hydraulic lift.
FIGURE 7 shows two drums constructed in accordance with the above description and FIGURES 1-6. The elements of the top drum are identified by the letter A and the elements of the bottom drum are identified by the letter B for the sake of clarity. As can be seen from these FIGURES, the skirts of the drums are sized and shaped so that the drums can be stacked easily and securely on top of each other. More particularly, the tubular section of the skirt member 28A extending below shoulder 38A fits into the cavity 24B. Because this member 28A has the same diameter as the bodies 12A, 12B, while skirt 20A has a slightly larger diameter due to the fact that cover 16A is slightly larger, there is a small clearance C radially between the two drums to ensure that there is no interlock therebetween. If member 28A and skirt 20B would have identical nominal dimensions, then the two drums may interlock.
Furthermore, the drums can be made with larger tolerances. There is sufficient lateral support provided by the skirts so that several drums can be stacked vertically on top of each other. The skirts are further useful in aligning the vertically stacked drums.
As shown in FIGURE 7, the drums lOA, lOB may be made from one or more layers of fibre.
In FIGURES 8 and 9 an alternate embodiment of the invention is shown in which the drum 10' is cylindrical. Drum 10' also includes a body 12' with a lower skirt 26' having cutouts ,~
, (such as 34') for handling by a hydraulic lift. Drum 10' further has an upper skirt 20'. Drum 10' may be used in a manner identical to the drum shown in FIGURES 1 - 7.
Obviously numerous modifications may be made to the present invention without departing from its scope as defined in the appended claims.
