Definitions
- the invention relates to a box according to the preamble of claim 1.
- bottles crates of this type usually have handles which are formed by substantially rectangular through openings in opposite narrow sides of a bottle crate. These push-through openings are arranged in such a way that a cross bar remains above them, which forms the handle of the bottle crate. For handling, in particular for transporting, these boxes are gripped with both hands, each hand being inserted through a through opening and encompassing the carrying bar remaining above the through opening. Such handles have undoubtedly proven themselves, which is why they are used predominantly, if not exclusively, in the bottle crates in question.
- the object of the invention is to provide a bottle crate which enables such wearing behavior. This should be ensured by structurally simple measures which essentially do not weaken the bottle crate, enable simple manufacture of the bottle crate in terms of production technology, and also allow stacking of bottle crates.
- the bottle crate is characterized in that the handle is formed by a vertical, that is perpendicular to the bottom of the bottle crate handle bar, which can be gripped because appropriate handle openings or recesses are provided on both sides of the handle bar.
- a handle allows, if it is conveniently arranged on opposite side walls of a bottle crate, a gripping of a bottle crate on both sides, but in particular it allows a comfortable grasping of the bottle crate with only one hand, so that the other hand for other purposes Is available, such as opening a door or the trunk lid of a vehicle.
- the handle is formed essentially centrally in the side wall.
- the arrangement of the handle bar in the upper half of the box is particularly preferred.
- the handle bar is expediently arranged above a level which contains the center of gravity of the bottle crate and runs parallel to the crate bottom. This arrangement has the advantage that the grip bar is above the center of gravity of the crate and thus the tilting moment of the bottle crate is minimized.
- the grip strip is part of a continuous support profile, which increases the stability of a bottle crate by further stiffening it.
- a robust design is also ensured in that the handle bar is formed by a hollow profile.
- the carrying can be further improved by the fact that the handle bar at its upper end merges into a transverse spar (either one side or both sides of the handle bar), whereby the bottle crate can also be carried in the usual way by including a transverse bar.
- This bottle crate then enables both the wearing behavior desired according to the invention and the previously customary carrying of a bottle crate by gripping the crate on both sides.
- the wearing behavior is further favored by the fact that, in particular in the region of the vertical grip bar, lamellar ribs are provided which run parallel to one another and closely spaced apart, and / or the grip bar has roughened grip surfaces.
- FIG. 1 shows schematically a perspective view of part of a bottle crate denoted by 1 from its narrow side, conventional components of a bottle crate, such as in particular the compartment division, being omitted to simplify the illustration.
- a handle 3 formed in the narrow side wall 2 has a vertically extending handle strip 4 which is delimited on both sides by through openings 5a and 5b. Both the handle bar 4 and the access openings 5a and 5b are dimensioned in terms of their length and width in such a way that you can reach through the access openings 5a and 5b by hand and grasp the handle bar 4.
- the grip strip 4 which can preferably be arranged on one or both narrow sides of the bottle crate, but also if necessary on the long sides of the bottle crate, is central in the exemplary embodiment shown, ie. H. arranged along the central axis of the side wall 2 designated by M.
- the through-openings 5a and 5b can have any suitable shape, in particular be semicircular or in the form of a semi-ellipse.
- the through openings 5a and 5b have an L-shaped plan.
- the grip strip 4 merges at its upper end into a cross member of the bottle crate, designated 6, which represents the upper part of the bottle crate.
- This cross member 6 expediently has a height in the illustrated embodiment, which allows a comfortable grasping of the handle 6 by hand, so that the bottle crate can also be gripped in the usual way along a horizontally extending handle bar formed here by the cross member 6.
- one or more handles of a conventional type can be provided, in particular on the side walls free of the vertical handle bar 4, which, for example, by i. W. rectangular passage opening are formed so that the cross bar remaining at the top of the box can serve as a handle.
- the grip strip 4 is designed as a hollow profile.
- the grip strip 4 is a section of a support profile 7 which can be seen more clearly in FIG. 2 and which extends from the upper box end to the box bottom at 8.
- This support profile 7 serves to stabilize, in particular stiffen, the bottle crate 1.
- This support profile 7 can, as is indicated by dash-dotted lines at the top left in FIG. 2, have a projection 9 which projects beyond the upper end of the crate and serves as a stacking aid.
- a corresponding depression is formed on the bottom of the box, which, however, is not shown in the drawing, in which the bottle box located below with its projection 9 is immersed. This stabilizes a stack of bottles.
- the cross bar 6 is provided with lamella-like ribs 10 running parallel to one another and closely spaced apart, which improve the grip behavior of a handle.
- These lamellas or lamellar ribs 10 are also provided on the handle bar, in particular on the part of the handle bar 4 facing the inside of the box.
- the lamellae of the handle bar are not shown in the drawing.
- These slats expediently extend vertically or horizontally.
- the grip surfaces of the grip strip 4 are roughened, which also improves the grip behavior.
- an additional handle 11 can be seen in FIG. 2, right half, which delimits a transverse bar 12 at the top similar to the transverse bar 6, which ultimately serves as a carrying handle.
- the access openings on both sides of the handle are not closed, as in the illustrations in FIGS. 1 to 4, but are open at the top, that is to say formed by cutouts, so that the handle has a free end over the the lower side wall area protrudes upwards.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kasten gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a box according to the preamble of claim 1.
Insbesondere betrifft die Erfindung einen Flaschenkasten aus Kunststoff, der im Inneren in üblicher Weise einen Facheinteilung zur Aufnahme der Flaschen aufweist. Derartige Flaschenkästen weisen meist Handgriffe auf, die durch im wesentlichen rechteckförmige Durchgriffsöffnungen in gegenüberliegenden Schmalseiten eines Flaschenkastens ausgebildet sind. Diese Druchgriffsöffnungen sind so angeordnet, daß über ihnen ein Querholm verbleibt, der den Tragegriff des Flaschenkastens bildet. Zur Handhabung, insbesondere zum Transport dieser Kisten werden diese mit beiden Händen ergriffen, wobei jede Hand durch eine Durchgriffsöffnung gesteckt wird und den oberhalb der Durchgriffsöffnung verbleibenden Tragholm umgreift. Derartige Handgriffe haben sich zweifelsohne bewährt, weshalb sie auch überwiegend, wenn nicht gar ausschließlich bei den in Frage stehenden Flaschenkästen Verwendung finden.In particular, the invention relates to a bottle crate made of plastic, which has a compartment division for receiving the bottles in the usual way. Bottle crates of this type usually have handles which are formed by substantially rectangular through openings in opposite narrow sides of a bottle crate. These push-through openings are arranged in such a way that a cross bar remains above them, which forms the handle of the bottle crate. For handling, in particular for transporting, these boxes are gripped with both hands, each hand being inserted through a through opening and encompassing the carrying bar remaining above the through opening. Such handles have undoubtedly proven themselves, which is why they are used predominantly, if not exclusively, in the bottle crates in question.
Hat man sich bislang überwiegend mit diesen Handgriffen an Flaschenkästen abgefünden, weil man aufgrund deren Anordnung und Ausbildung ein ergonomisch günstiges Griffverhalten vermutet hat, so konnte überraschend festgestellt werden, daß unter ergonomischen Gesichtspunkten insbesondere aber ein Trageverhalten zweckmäßig ist, bei dem der Flaschenkasten nur mit einer Hand ergriffen wird und der Flaschenkasten hierbei seitwärts leicht schräg nach unten gerichtet ist. Solches erlaubt ein bequemes Tragen des Flaschenkastens mit nur einer Hand ohne daß die darin aufgenommenen Flaschen herausfallen.So far one has mainly found these handles on bottle crates because one suspected an ergonomically favorable grip behavior due to their arrangement and design, so it was surprisingly found that, from an ergonomic point of view, a wearing behavior is particularly expedient in which the bottle crate has only one Hand is gripped and the bottle crate is directed sideways slightly obliquely downwards. This allows the bottle crate to be carried comfortably with only one hand without the bottles contained therein falling out.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Flaschenkasten zu schaffen, der ein solches Trageverhalten ermöglicht. Dabei soll dies durch baulich einfache Maßnahmen gewährleistet sein, die im wesentlichen keine Schwächung des Flaschenkastens mit sich bringen, eine fertigungstechnisch einfache Herstellung des Flaschenkastens ermöglichen und auch einen Stapelung von Flaschenkästen erlaubt.The object of the invention is to provide a bottle crate which enables such wearing behavior. This should be ensured by structurally simple measures which essentially do not weaken the bottle crate, enable simple manufacture of the bottle crate in terms of production technology, and also allow stacking of bottle crates.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruches 1 enthaltenen Merkmalen gelöst.This object is achieved by the features contained in the characterizing part of claim 1.
Nach Maßgabe der Erfindung zeichnet sich der Flaschenkasten dadurch aus, daß der Handgriff durch eine vertikal, also senkrecht zum Flaschenkastenboden verlaufende Griffleiste gebildet ist, die dadurch gefaßt werden kann, weil beidseits der Griffleiste entsprechende Durchgriffsöffnungen oder Aussparungen vorgesehen sind. Ein derartiger Handgriff erlaubt, wenn er, was zweckmäßig ist, an gegenüberliegenden Seitenwänden eines Flaschenkastens angeordnet ist, auch ein beidseitiges Greifen eines Flaschenkastens, insbesondere aber ermöglicht er ein bequemes Erfassen des Flaschenkastens mit nur einer Hand, so daß die andere Hand für andere Zwecke zur Verfügung steht, etwa Öffnen einer Tür oder des Kofferraumdeckels eines Fahrzeuges.According to the invention, the bottle crate is characterized in that the handle is formed by a vertical, that is perpendicular to the bottom of the bottle crate handle bar, which can be gripped because appropriate handle openings or recesses are provided on both sides of the handle bar. Such a handle allows, if it is conveniently arranged on opposite side walls of a bottle crate, a gripping of a bottle crate on both sides, but in particular it allows a comfortable grasping of the bottle crate with only one hand, so that the other hand for other purposes Is available, such as opening a door or the trunk lid of a vehicle.
In diesem Zusammenhang ist es zweckmäßig, wenn der Handgriff im wesentlichen zentrisch in der Seitenwand ausgebildet ist. Besonders bevorzugt ist die Anordnung der Griffleiste in der oberen Kastenhälfte. Zweckmäßigerweise ist die Griffleiste oberhalb einer Ebene angeordnet, die den Schwerpunkt des Flaschenkastens enthält und parallel zum Kastenboden verläuft. Diese Anordnung hat den Vorteil, daß die Griffleiste oberhalb des Schwerpunkts des Kastens liegt und damit das Kippmoment des Flaschenkastens minimiert wird. Wird ein derart ausgebildeter Flaschenkasten mit einer Hand ergriffen, so kann dieser bequem mit einer Hand in einer Stellung getragen werden, in der der Flaschenkasten leicht schräg vom Träger absteht, so daß die Flaschen nicht hinausfallen können und die Seitenwand sowie der Boden des Flaschenkastens vom Träger des Kastens weggerichtet sind, was die Gefahr von Verschmutzungen der den Kasten tragenden Person aufgrund Kontaktes mit dem Flaschenkasten vermeidet.In this context, it is expedient if the handle is formed essentially centrally in the side wall. The arrangement of the handle bar in the upper half of the box is particularly preferred. The handle bar is expediently arranged above a level which contains the center of gravity of the bottle crate and runs parallel to the crate bottom. This arrangement has the advantage that the grip bar is above the center of gravity of the crate and thus the tilting moment of the bottle crate is minimized. If such a bottle crate is gripped with one hand, it can be comfortably carried with one hand in a position in which the bottle crate protrudes slightly from the carrier so that the bottles cannot fall out and the side wall and the bottom of the bottle crate from the carrier the box are directed away, which avoids the risk of contamination of the person carrying the box due to contact with the bottle crate.
In besonders vorteilhafter Weise ist die Griffleiste Bestandteil eines durchgehenden Stützprofiles, wodurch die Stabilität eines Flaschenkastens durch weitere Versteifung desselben erhöht wird. Eine robuste Bauart wird auch dadurch gewährleistet, daß die Griffleiste durch ein Hohlprofil gebildet ist.In a particularly advantageous manner, the grip strip is part of a continuous support profile, which increases the stability of a bottle crate by further stiffening it. A robust design is also ensured in that the handle bar is formed by a hollow profile.
Das Trageberhalten kann ferner noch dadurch verbessert werden, daß die Griffleiste an ihrem oberen Ende in einen querverlaufenden Holm (entweder einseitig oder beidseitig der Griffleiste) übergeht, wodurch zugleich der Flaschenkasten auch in der üblichen Weise durch Umfassen eines querverlaufenden Holmes getragen werden kann. Dieser Flaschenkasten ermöglicht dann sowohl das erfindungsgemäß angestrebte Trageverhalten als auch das bislang übliche Tragen eines Flaschenkastens durch beidseitiges Greifen des Kastens.The carrying can be further improved by the fact that the handle bar at its upper end merges into a transverse spar (either one side or both sides of the handle bar), whereby the bottle crate can also be carried in the usual way by including a transverse bar. This bottle crate then enables both the wearing behavior desired according to the invention and the previously customary carrying of a bottle crate by gripping the crate on both sides.
Schließlich wird nach einer zweckmäßigen Weiterbildung das Trageverhalten noch dadurch begünstigt, daß insbesondere im Bereich der vertikalen Griffleiste lamellenartige Rippen vorgesehen sind, die parallel zueinander und eng beabstandet zueinander verlaufen, und/oder die Griffleiste aufgerauhte Grifflächen aufweist.Finally, according to an expedient development, the wearing behavior is further favored by the fact that, in particular in the region of the vertical grip bar, lamellar ribs are provided which run parallel to one another and closely spaced apart, and / or the grip bar has roughened grip surfaces.
Nachfolgend wird ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung an Hand der Zeichnungen beschrieben. Darin zeigen:
- Fig. 1 eine schematische perspektivische Teilansicht einer Ausführungsform eines Flaschenkastens,
- Fig. 2 eine teilweise geschnittene Seitenansicht einer entsprechenden Ausführungsform eines Flaschenkastens, wobei die linke Hälfte der Fig. 2 einen Teilschnitt von Fig. 3 zeigt,
- Fig. 3 eine Draufsicht auf den in Fig. 2 dargestellten Flaschenkasten, wobei die obere Hälfte links einen Teilschnitt aus Fig. 2 und die untere Hälfte links ebenfalls einen Teilschnitt aus Fig. 2 zeigt, sowie
- Fig. 4 eine Seitenansicht einer Schmalseite des dargestellten Flaschenkastens, wobei die linke Hälfte einen Teilschnitt aus Fig. 3 zeigt.
- 1 is a schematic perspective partial view of an embodiment of a bottle crate,
- Fig. 2 is a partially sectioned side view of a corresponding Ausfüh form of a bottle crate, the left half of FIG. 2 showing a partial section of FIG. 3,
- 3 shows a top view of the bottle crate shown in FIG. 2, the upper half on the left showing a partial section from FIG. 2 and the lower half on the left also showing a partial section from FIG. 2, and
- FIG. 4 shows a side view of a narrow side of the bottle crate shown, the left half showing a partial section from FIG. 3.
Figur 1 zeigt schematisch in perspektivischer Darstellung einen Teil eines mit 1 bezeichneten Flaschenkastens von seiner Schmalseite her, wobei zur Vereinfachung der Darstellung übliche Bauteile eines Flaschenkastens, wie insbesondere die Facheinteilung, weggelassen wurden. Ein in der schmalen Seitenwand 2 ausgebildeter Handgriff 3 weist eine vertikal verlaufende Griffleiste 4 auf, die an beiden Seiten durch Durchgriffsöffnungen 5a und 5b begrenzt ist. Sowohl die Griffleiste 4 als auch die Durchgriffsöffnungen 5a und 5b sind von ihrer Länge und Breite so bemessen, daß man mit der Hand durch die Durchgriffsöffnungen 5a und 5b greifen und die Griffleiste 4 fassen kann.FIG. 1 shows schematically a perspective view of part of a bottle crate denoted by 1 from its narrow side, conventional components of a bottle crate, such as in particular the compartment division, being omitted to simplify the illustration. A handle 3 formed in the
Die Griffleiste 4, die bevorzugt an einer oder beiden Schmalseiten des Flaschenkastens, aber auch bei Bedarf an den Längsseiten des Flaschenkastens angeordnet sein kann, ist im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel zentrisch, d. h. längs der mit M bezeichneten Mittelachse der Seitenwand 2 angeordnet.The grip strip 4, which can preferably be arranged on one or both narrow sides of the bottle crate, but also if necessary on the long sides of the bottle crate, is central in the exemplary embodiment shown, ie. H. arranged along the central axis of the
Die Durchgriffsöffnungen 5a und 5b können jede geeignete Form aufweisen, insbesondere halbkreifsförmig oder in Form einer Halbellipse ausgebildet sein. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel weisen die Durchgriffsöffnungen 5a und 5b einen L-förmigen Grundriß auf. Dies rührt daher, weil die Griffleiste 4 im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel an ihrem oberen Ende in einen mit 6 bezeichneten Querholm des Flaschenkastens übergeht, der den oberen Teil des Flaschenkastens darstellt. Dieser Querholm 6 weist im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel zweckmäßigerweise eine Höhe auf, die ein bequemes Umfassen des Holms 6 durch die Hand zuläßt, so daß der Flaschenkasten auch in der üblichen Weise längs einer horizontal verlaufenden, hier durch den Querholm 6 gebildeten Griffleiste gefaßt werden kann. Zusätzlich zur vertikalen Griffleiste 4 kann insbesondere an den von der vertikalen Griffleiste 4 freien Seitenwänden ein oder mehrere Handgriffe üblicher Bauart vorgesehen sein, die beispielsweise durch i. W. rechteckförmige Durchgriffsöffnung gebildet sind, so daß der am oberen Kastenende verbleibende Querholm als Tragegriff dienen kann.The through-
Insbesondere aus Figur 3 geht hervor, daß die Griffleiste 4 als Hohlprofil ausgebildet ist. Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist hierbei die Griffleiste 4 ein Abschnitt eines besser aus Figur 2 ersichtlichen Stützprofils 7, welches sich vom oberen Kastenende bis zum Kastenboden bei 8 erstreckt. Dieses Stützprofil 7 dient zur Stabilisierung, insbesondere Versteifung des Flaschenkastens 1. Dieses Stützprofil 7 kann, wie in Figur 2 strich-punktiert oben links angedeutet ist, einen Vorsprung 9 aufweisen, der über das obere Ende des Kastens vorsteht und als Stapelhilfe dient. Hierzu ist am Kastenboden eine entsprechende Vertiefung ausgebildet, die in der Zeichnung allerdings nicht dargestellt ist, in welcher der untenliegende Flaschenkasten mit seinem Vorsprung 9 eintaucht. Dadurch erreicht man eine Stabilisierung eines Flaschenstapels.It can be seen in particular from FIG. 3 that the grip strip 4 is designed as a hollow profile. In the present exemplary embodiment, the grip strip 4 is a section of a
Wie insbesondere aus Figuren 3, unten rechts und Figur 4 oben links hervorgeht, ist der Querholm 6 mit lamellenartigen, parallel zueinander verlaufenden und eng beabstandeten Rippen 10 versehen, die das Griffverhalten eines Handgriffes verbessern. Diese Lammellen bzw. lamellenartigen Rippen 10 sind auch an der Griffleiste vorgesehen und zwar insbesondere an dem dem Kasteninneren zugewandten Teil der Griffleiste 4. Aus Gründen der vereinfachten Darstellung sind die Lamellen der Griffleiste zeichnerisch nicht festgehalten. Diese Lamellen erstrecken sich zweckmäßigerweise vertikal oder horizontal. Nach einer weiteren Ausgestaltung wird die Griffflächen der Griffleiste 4 aufgerauht, wodurch gleichfalls das Griffverhalten verbessert wird. Aus Figur 2, rechte Hälfte ist schließlich ein zusätzlicher Handgriff 11 ersichtlich, der oben einen querverlaufenden Holm 12 ähnlich dem Querholm 6 begrenzt, der schließlich als Traggriff dient.As can be seen in particular from FIGS. 3, bottom right and FIG. 4 top left, the cross bar 6 is provided with lamella-
Nach weiteren, zeichnerisch nicht festgehaltenen Ausführungsformen sind die beidseits der Giffleiste vorhandenen Durchgriffsöffnungen nicht in sich geschlossen, wie in den Darstellungen der Figuren 1 bis 4, sondern nach oben hin offen, also durch Aussparungen gebildet, so daß die Griffleiste mit einem freien Ende über den unteren Seitenwandbereich nach oben vorsteht.According to further embodiments not shown in the drawing, the access openings on both sides of the handle are not closed, as in the illustrations in FIGS. 1 to 4, but are open at the top, that is to say formed by cutouts, so that the handle has a free end over the the lower side wall area protrudes upwards.
