Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kunststoffbehälter mit jeweils eine graphische Darstellung aufweisendem Behälterteil und Deckelteil, wobei der Behälterteil eine Stapelschulter und der Deckelteil einen seitlich abstehenden Griffteil aufweist.The invention relates to a plastic container, each having a graphic representation Container part and lid part, the container part a stacking shoulder and the Cover part has a laterally projecting handle part.

Kunststoffbehälter dieser Art sind beispielsweise bekannt durch die DE-B-3 3 263 69 oder die EP-B-0408515. Für die Anbringung einer graphischen Darstellung wird dieser mit einem bedruckten Kartonmantel versehen. Auch der auf dem oberen Flanschrand aufzusiegelnde Deckelteil erhält eine bedruckte, werbewirksame Aussenfläche. Nach ihrer separaten Herstellung werden die Behälterteile und Deckelteile in grosser Anzahl jeweils für sich gestapelt einer ortsfernen Füll- und Schliessanlage zugeliefert und in solcher gestapelten Anordnung in diese eingesetzt, um dort durch automatisch wirkende Werkzeuge miteinander verbunden zu werden. Aufgrund ihres zumindest im wesentlichen kreisförmigen Querschnitts können sich die ineinander gestapelten Behälter während ihrer Handhabung und beim Transport gegenseitig verdrehen, so dass die graphische Darstellung in Umfangsrichtung eine zufällige bzw. unbestimmte Ausrichtung erhält. Dies verhindert, dass die graphische Darstellung des Werbeträgers des Behälterteiles mit derjenigen des Deckelteiles in einem vorbestimmten, zueinander richtungsbezogenem Zusammenhang stehen kann, z.B. um eine bildliche Darstellung vom Umfang des Behälterteiles bis auf die Fläche des Deckelteiles fortzusetzen. Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Kunststoffbehälter der genannten Art zu finden, dessen Behälterteile in gestapelter Position gegen gegenseitige Verdrehung gesichert sind, so dass sein Deckelteil mit geringem Aufwand in vorgegebener Winkelposition relativ zum Behälterteil mit diesem verbunden werden kann.Plastic containers of this type are known for example from DE-B-3 3 263 69 or EP-B-0,408,515th For the attachment of a graphic representation, this is printed with a Provide cardboard jacket. Also the lid part to be sealed on the upper flange edge receives a printed, advertising-effective outer surface. After making them separately the container parts and lid parts are stacked in large numbers each one remote filling and locking system supplied and in such a stacked arrangement in these are used to be connected to each other by automatically acting tools become. Due to their at least substantially circular cross section, the containers stacked one inside the other during their handling and during transport twist so that the graphical representation in the circumferential direction is a random or indefinite one Get alignment. This prevents the graphic representation of the advertising medium of the container part with that of the lid part in a predetermined, to each other directional relationship, e.g. for a pictorial representation of Continue circumference of the container part up to the surface of the lid part. The invention is the task of finding a plastic container of the type mentioned, the container parts are secured in a stacked position against mutual rotation so that its Lid part with little effort in a predetermined angular position relative to the container part can be connected to this.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe der Erfindung erfolgt aufgrund der kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Patentansprüche und der folgenden Beschreibung an Hand der Zeichnungen zu entnehmen. Es zeigt:

  • Fig. 1 einen durch einen Deckelteil verschlossenen Kunststoffbehälter entsprechend dem Stand der Technik mit schematischer Darstellung von Werbeträgern,
  • Fig.2 einen erfindungsgemässen Kunststoffbehälter mit schematischer Darstellung von zueinander ausgerichteten Werbeträgern,
  • Fig.3 einen Axialschnitt durch den Behälterteil eines erfindungsgemässen Kunststoffbehäl-Behälters,
  • Fig.4 eine vergrösserte Darstellung des Bereichs IV der Fig.3,
  • Fig.5 einen vergrösserten Teilquerschnitt des Behälterteils nach Fig.3 im Bereich eines Rastelementes und einer Rastausnehmung und
  • Fig.6 Ansicht gegen die Unterseite eines erfindungsgemässen Kunststoffbehälters mit von der Kreisform abweichender Querschnittsform.
    • The object of the invention is achieved on the basis of the characterizing features of patent claim 1. Advantageous refinements of the invention are the subject of the dependent patent claims and the following description can be seen from the drawings. It shows:
  • 1 is a plastic container closed by a cover part according to the prior art with a schematic representation of advertising media,
  • 2 shows a plastic container according to the invention with a schematic representation of advertising media aligned with one another,
  • 3 shows an axial section through the container part of a plastic container container according to the invention,
  • 4 shows an enlarged view of area IV of FIG. 3,
  • 5 shows an enlarged partial cross section of the container part according to FIG. 3 in the region of a latching element and a latching recess and
  • 6 view against the underside of a plastic container according to the invention with a cross-sectional shape deviating from the circular shape.

    • Die Darstellungen der Fig. 1 und Fig.2 zeigen schematisch je einen richtungsorientierten Teil 1 und 2 einer am Kunststoffbehälter 3 vorgesehenen graphischen Darstellung. Entsprechend dem Stand der Technik , wie er durch Fig. 1 veranschaulicht ist, ergibt sich eine zufällige und daher unterschiedliche Ausrichtung des Teils 1 zum Teil 2 der graphischen Darstellung, so dass zwischen ihnen keine vorgegebene darstellerische Beziehung möglich ist. Aufgrund der Erfindung wird hingegen erreicht, dass der Teil 1 der graphischen Darstellung des Deckelteils 4 stets die gleiche Ausrichtung zum Teil 2 der graphischen Darstellung des Behälterteils 5 des Kunststoffbehälters erhält, so dass beide entsprechend der Darstellung in Fig.2 ohne gegenseitige Versetzung ineinander übergehen können.The representations of FIGS. 1 and 2 schematically each show a direction-oriented part 1 and 2 of a graphic representation provided on the plastic container 3. Corresponding the prior art, as illustrated by Fig. 1, results in a random and therefore different orientation of part 1 to part 2 of the graph, so that between them there is no predetermined acting relationship. Due to the In contrast, the invention achieves that part 1 of the graphic representation of the cover part 4 always the same orientation to part 2 of the graphic representation of the container part 5 of the plastic container, so that both according to the illustration in Figure 2 without mutual transfer can merge.

    Aufgrund ihrer Herstellung im Tiefziehverfahren haben die Behälterteile 5 eine konische Form, die ihre raumsparende Stapelung ineinander ermöglicht. In dieser Anordnung werde sie einem Kunden zugeliefert, der sie auf diese Weise gestapelt in eine Füllanlage einsetzt. In dieser werden sie beispielsweise mit Joghurt gefüllt und anschliessend durch den mitgelieferten Deckelteil 4 durch Aufsiegeln verschlossen. Damit die gestapelten Behälterteile 5 während ihres Transports von der Herstellungsanlage bis in eine ortsferne Füllanlage sich nicht gegenseitig verdrehen, sind am Umfang der Behälterteile zueinander passende Rastelemente 6 und Rastausnehmungen 7 eingeformt, so dass beim Stapeln die Rastausnehmung 7 des einen Behälterteils 5 über das Rastelement 6 des anderen Behälterteils 5 einrasten kann. Due to their production in the deep-drawing process, the container parts 5 have a conical shape Shape that enables their space-saving stacking in one another. In this arrangement it is delivered to a customer who uses it in a stacked manner in a filling system. In They are filled with yoghurt, for example, and then with the supplied one Cover part 4 closed by sealing. So that the stacked container parts 5 during their transport from the manufacturing plant to a remote filling plant itself twist each other, are matching locking elements on the circumference of the container parts 6 and locking recesses 7 are formed, so that the locking recess 7 of one when stacked Container part 5 can snap over the locking element 6 of the other container part 5.

    Ein gegenseitiges Verdrehen von aufeinander gestapelten Deckelteilen 4 wird durch den seitlich von ihnen abstehenden Griffteil 14 verhindert.A mutual twisting of stacked lid parts 4 is by the side protruding handle portion 14 prevented.

    Die Anordnung von z.B. vier im Abstand von 90° zueinander vorgesehenen Rastelementen 6 erfolgt vorzugsweise an einem Stapelrand 8 des Behälterteiles 5, während die Rastausnehmungen 7 in einem Randwulst 9 des Behälterbodens 10 eingeformt sind. Der Stapelrand 8 hat die Aufgabe, zwischen den gestapelten Behälterteilen 5 einen axialen Abstand vorzusehen, so dass sie sich nicht ineinander verkeilen. Somit stützt sich der in einen anderen eingesetzte Behälterteil 5 mit seinem bodenseitigen Randwulst 9 auf der Stapelschulter 8 des ihn umschliessenden anderen Behälterteiles 5 ab, wobei die Ausnehmung 7 des Randwulstes über das Rastelement 6 gleitet, so dass sich eine in Umfangsrichtung des Behälterteiles 5 wirksame Verrastung ergibt.The arrangement of e.g. four latching elements 6 provided at a distance of 90 ° to one another is preferably carried out on a stack edge 8 of the container part 5, while the locking recesses 7 are formed in an edge bead 9 of the container bottom 10. The stack edge 8 has the task of providing an axial distance between the stacked container parts 5, so that they don't wedge into each other The container part inserted into another is thus supported 5 with its bottom-side edge bead 9 on the stacking shoulder 8 of the one surrounding it other container part 5, with the recess 7 of the bead over the Locking element 6 slides so that an effective in the circumferential direction of the container part 5 Latching results.

    Vorzugsweise hat das Rastelement 6 eine sich nach oben verjüngende Form, so dass seine Bewegung in die Rastausnehmung 7 hinein unterstützt wird.The latching element 6 preferably has a shape which tapers upwards, so that its Movement into the recess 7 is supported.

    Die Ausbildung des bodenseitigen Randwulstes 9 und der Stapelschulter 8 ergibt sich beispielsweise durch eine zwischen beiden eingeformte, umlaufende zylindrische Ausnehmung 11, so dass die Stapelschulter 8 durch den Übergang von einem zylindrischen zu einem konischen Bereich der Behälterseitenwand 12 gebildet ist.The formation of the bottom edge bead 9 and the stacking shoulder 8 results, for example through a circumferential cylindrical recess formed between the two 11, so that the stacking shoulder 8 through the transition from a cylindrical to a conical Area of the container side wall 12 is formed.

    Der bodenseitige Randwulst 9 erfüllt die zusätzliche Aufgabe, die die graphische Darstellung tragende Papiermanschette 13 formschlüssig zu untergreifen.The bottom edge bead 9 fulfills the additional task of the graphic representation to grip under the supporting paper sleeve 13 in a form-fitting manner.

    Die Darstellung der Fig.6 zeigt das Beispiel einer Behälterform, deren Querschnitt etwas von der Kreisform abweicht. Hierbei hat die erfindungsgemässe Verdrehsicherung von gestapelten Behälterteilen den zusätzlichen Vorteil, dass ein gegenseitiges Verkeilen durch Verdrehen der Behälterteile verhindert wird. Solches würde zu einer erschwerten Entnahme in der Füllanlage mit deren möglichen Funktionsstörung führen.The illustration in FIG. 6 shows the example of a container shape, the cross section of which is somewhat different deviates from the circular shape. Here, the anti-rotation device according to the invention has stacked Container parts have the additional advantage that a mutual wedging by twisting the container parts is prevented. This would make removal in the filling system difficult with their possible malfunction.

    Aufgrund der Herstellung des Behälterteils 5 durch Tiefziehen einer Kunststofffolie sind seine Profilierungen z.B. zur Ausbildung der Stapelschulter 8, des Rastelementes 6 und der Rastausnehmung 7 in Form von entsprechend geformten Ausbuchtungen der Kunststofffolie ausgeführt.Due to the production of the container part 5 by deep drawing a plastic film, its Profiling e.g. to form the stacking shoulder 8, the locking element 6 and the locking recess 7 executed in the form of correspondingly shaped bulges of the plastic film.
