Abstract

The container has a body and a lid, which occupies a closed position on the body from which it can be released by means of a lifting mechanism. A carrying handle (14) is mounted on the body in an articulated manner. The lifting mechanism comes into operation by pivoting the carrying handle (14) about its coupling axis. The lifting mechanism can be activated and deactivated by an adjusting action therefor.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Behälter mit einem Korpus von konischer Rundform, das einen Boden und eine umlaufende Seitenwand hat, spiegelsymmetrisch zu einer Längsmittelebene und einer Quermittelebene durch einander gegenüberliegende Scheitel ist und sich zu einer oberen Öffnung hin erweitert.The invention relates to a container having a body of conical round shape, which has a bottom and a circumferential side wall, is mirror-symmetrical to a longitudinal center plane and a transverse center plane through opposing vertex and widens toward an upper opening.

Derartige Behälter sind aus der Praxis als Eimer bekannt, in denen Beschichtungsstoffe, insbesondere Farbmittel (umgangssprachlich Farbe, Malerfarbe) konfektioniert sind. Die Eimer sind Spritzgußteile aus Kunststoff.Such containers are known in practice as pails, in which coating materials, in particular colorants (colloquially color, paint painter) are made up. The buckets are plastic injection molded parts.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen in seiner geometrischen Form optimierten Behälter der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen.The object of the invention is to provide an optimized in its geometric shape container of the type mentioned.

Die Seitenwand des diese Aufgabe lösenden Behälters folgt drei Kreisbögen, und zwar je einem Kreisbogen an den Scheiteln und einem Kreisbogen dazwischen, der stetig und mit gleicher Steigung (glatt) in die Kreisbögen an den Scheiteln übergeht. Die Kreisbögen haben also an ihrem Übergang die gleiche Tangente.The side wall of the container solving this problem follows three circular arcs, one circular arc at each vertex and a circular arc between them, which merges continuously and with the same slope (smooth) in the circular arcs at the vertices. The circular arcs thus have the same tangent at their transition.

Einschlägige Behälter, insbesondere Eimer aus Kunststoff mit kreisrundem, ovalem und abgerundet-rechteckigem Grundriß und einer Entformungskonizität sind aus der Praxis vielfältig bekannt. Bemerkenswerterweise tritt die Erfindung in einem intensiv bearbeiteten technischen Gebiet mit einer innovativen neuen Form hervor.Relevant containers, in particular buckets of plastic with circular, oval and rounded-rectangular plan and a Entformungskonizität are widely known in practice. Notably, the invention appears in an intensively engineered technical field with an innovative new shape.

Die Formgebung eines Eimers für Farbe ist das Ergebnis eines multiparametrigen Optimierungsprozesses, der in seiner Komplexität kaum zu überschätzen ist. Die nachfolgende Darstellung beschränkt sich auf einige wichtige Teilaspekte:The design of a bucket for paint is the result of a multiparametric optimization process that is difficult to overestimate in its complexity. The following presentation is limited to a few important aspects:

Die Eimer werden üblicherweise in Stapeln übereinander auf Paletten gelagert und transportiert. Die Paletten sind rechteckig. Eine optimale Ausnutzung der Palettenfläche würde mit einem Eimer von rechteckigem Grundriß und möglichst steilen Seitenwänden erreicht.The buckets are usually stacked on pallets and transported on pallets. The pallets are rectangular. Optimum utilization of the pallet surface would be achieved with a bucket of rectangular outline and as steep as possible sidewalls.

Problematisch sind die Kanten an den Seitenwänden, die ein solcher Eimer aufweist. Die Kanten behindern das Entnehmen der Farbe aus dem Eimer und das Säubern des Eimers. Häufig wird weiße Farbe abgetönt und dazu mit Abtönfarbe versetzt und vermischt, was vorzugsweise durch Rütteln des Eimers geschieht. Die erwähnten Kanten können die Homogenität der Abtönung beeinträchtigen.The edges on the side walls, which has such a bucket, are problematic. The edges hinder the removal of the paint from the bucket and the cleaning of the bucket. Often white color is tinted and mixed with tinting and mixed, which is preferably done by shaking the bucket. The mentioned edges can affect the homogeneity of the tinting.

Zur Wahrung der Homogenität der Farbe wäre ein Eimer von kreisrundem Grundriß ideal. Ein solcher Eimer nutzt aber die Palettenfläche nicht gut aus. Für eine eher länglich-schlanke Form des Eimers spricht auch der höhere Tragkomfort, die größere Sichtfläche an der Breitseite des Eimers und der Umstand, daß sich eine Rolle besser in den Eimer eintauchen läßt.To maintain the homogeneity of the paint, a bucket of circular outline would be ideal. But such a bucket does not use the pallet surface well. For a rather elongated-slender shape of the bucket speaks also the higher comfort, the larger viewing area on the broad side of the bucket and the fact that a roll can better be immersed in the bucket.

Der Eimer muß hohen Stabilitätsanforderungen unter statischer und dynamischer Last genügen. Dabei gilt es, mit einer möglichst geringen Wanddicke auszukommen, um Material und Gewicht zu sparen. Die Stabilitätsanforderungen müssen bei sommerlichen und winterlichen Temperaturen gleichermaßen erfüllt sein.The bucket must meet high stability requirements under static and dynamic load. It is important to use the smallest possible wall thickness to save material and weight. The stability requirements must be equally met in summer and winter temperatures.

Ein all diesen teilweise widersprüchlichen Anforderungen optimal entsprechender Eimer wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch charakterisiert, daß seine Seitenwand drei Kreisbögen von paarweise verschiedenem Radius folgt, und zwar je einem Kreisbogen an den Scheiteln und einem Kreisbogen dazwischen, der stetig und mit gleicher Steigung (glatt) in die Kreisbögen an den Scheiteln übergeht. Es ist so eine glatte Rundform des Eimers ohne störende Kanten an der Seitenwand und eine gleichermaßen sehr gute Annäherung an die favorisierte Rundung eines Kreises und den platzsparenden rechteckigen Grundriß gewährleistet. Die Rundung eines Kreises wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Rundung von drei glatt ineinander übergehenden Kreisbögen approximiert. Die Stabilität des Eimers in den Seitenwandrundungen, speziell in den Eckrundungen, die von dem Übergangs-Kreisbogen mit kleinem Radius gebildet sind, ist hoch.A bucket optimally corresponding to all of these partially contradictory requirements is inventively characterized in that its sidewall follows three circular arcs of pairs of different radius, one arc at each vertex and a circular arc between them, continuous and with equal slope (smooth) in the circular arcs at the crests. It is such a smooth round shape of the bucket without disturbing edges on the side wall and an equally good approach to the favored curve of a circle and the space-saving rectangular floor plan guaranteed. The rounding of a circle is inventively approximated by the rounding of three smoothly merging circular arcs. The bucket's stability in the sidewall curves, especially in the corner fillets formed by the small radius transition arc, is high.

Bei Spiegelsymmetrie zu Längsmittelebene und Quermittelebene und über die Höhe konstantem Konuswinkel ist die geometrische Form des erfindungsgemäßen Behälters durch das Verhältnis zweier Längen und das Verhältnis zweier Radien eindeutig definiert. Die Längen sind der Abstand der einander gegenüberliegenden Scheitel, und die Radien die der Kreisbögen an den Scheiteln. Aufgrund der Konizität des Eimers sind Längen und Radien am Boden des Eimers kleiner, als an seiner oberen Öffnung. Das Verhältnis der Längen und Radien ist aber in allen Horizontalebenen des Eimers gleich, und es variiert von Gebindegröße zu Gebindegröße allenfalls geringfügig. Der erfindungsgemäße Eimer läßt sich also bei gleicher geometrischer Form skalieren, um verschiedene Füllvolumina zu realisieren.In the case of mirror symmetry with respect to the longitudinal center plane and the transverse center plane and the conical angle constant over the height, the geometric shape of the container according to the invention is clearly defined by the ratio of two lengths and the ratio of two radii. The lengths are the distance between the opposite vertices, and the radii are the arcs at the vertices. Due to the taper of the bucket lengths and radii are smaller at the bottom of the bucket, as at its upper opening. The ratio of the lengths and radii is the same in all horizontal planes of the bucket, and it varies only slightly from the size of the container to the size of the container. The bucket according to the invention can thus be scaled with the same geometric shape in order to realize different filling volumes.

Zur Vereinfachung der Terminologie wird festgelegt, daß längs größer ist als quer. Das ist willkürlich. Die Begriffe "längs" und "quer" bezeichnen zwei zueinander senkrechte Richtungen in der Horizontalen.
Die Begriffe sind austauschbar.
To simplify the terminology, it is determined that longitudinal is greater than transverse. That's arbitrary. The terms "longitudinal" and "transverse" designate two mutually perpendicular directions in the horizontal.
The terms are interchangeable.

Der Abstand der längsseitigen Scheitel wird mit 1, der Abstand der querseitigen Scheitel mit b, der Radius des Kreisbogens am längsseitigen Scheitel mit RS und der Radius des Kreisbogens am querseitigen Scheitel mit RL bezeichnet. Bei Spiegelsymmetrie und konstantem Konuswinkel ist die Geometrie des erfindungsgemäßen Behälters durch die Verhältnisse 1 / b und RS / RL eindeutig definiert.The distance of the longitudinal apices is denoted by 1, the distance of the lateral apices by b, the radius of the circular arc at the longitudinal apical with R S and the radius of the circular arc at the transverse apical with R L. In mirror symmetry and constant cone angle, the geometry of the container according to the invention by the ratios 1 / b and R S / R L is clearly defined.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform besteht zwischen dem Abstand der längsseitigen Scheitel und dem Abstand b der querseitigen Scheitel ein Verhältnis 1 / b von 1,5 ± 0,2, vorzugsweise 1,5 ± 0,15.In a preferred embodiment, there is a ratio 1 / b of 1.5 ± 0.2, preferably 1.5 ± 0.15, between the distance of the long side apex and the distance b of the cross-side apex.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist der Radius RS des Kreisbogens am längsseitigen Scheitel größer als der Radius RL am querseitigen Scheitel.In a preferred embodiment, the radius R S of the circular arc at the longitudinal vertex is greater than the radius R L at the transverse vertex.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform besteht zwischen dem Radius RS des Kreisbogens am längsseitigen Scheitel und dem Radius RL des Kreisbogens am querseitigen Scheitel ein Verhältnis RS / RL von 1,25 ± 0,1, vorzugsweise 1,25 ± 0,05.In a preferred embodiment, there is a ratio R S / R L of 1.25 ± 0.1, preferably 1.25 ± 0.05, between the radius R S of the circular arc at the longitudinal vertex and the radius R L of the circular arc at the cross-side vertex.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist der Behälter folgende Beziehungskonstanten zwischen den Abmessungen an der Innenseite des Bodens auf, wobei RM der Radius des Übergangs-Kreisbogens zwischen den Kreisbögen an den Scheiteln ist: Gebinde 1/b R S /R M R L /R M 12,5 1 1,47 6,53 5,23 11 pro Lage 12,5 1 1,47 6,49 5,00 10 pro Lage 15.0 1 1,42 6,57 5,36 10 pro Lage 15,0 1 1,63 6,42 5,33 9 pro Lage Beziehungs konstante 1,5 ± 0,2 6,5 ± 0,2 5,2 ± 0,2 In a preferred embodiment, the container has the following relationship constants between the dimensions on the inside of the bottom, where R M is the radius of the transition arc between the circular arcs at the vertices: container 1 / b R S / R M R L / R M 12.5 1 1.47 6.53 5.23 11 per location 12.5 1 1.47 6.49 5.00 10 per location 15.0 1 1.42 6.57 5.36 10 per location 15.0 1 1.63 6.42 5.33 9 per location Relationship constant 1.5 ± 0.2 6.5 ± 0.2 5.2 ± 0.2

Die Angabe der Beziehungskonstanten zwischen den Abmessungen an der Bodeninnenseite wurde gewählt, um unabhängig von Kragengeometrie und Wanddicke des Behälters zu sein.The indication of the relationship constant between the dimensions on the bottom inside was chosen to be independent of the collar geometry and wall thickness of the container.

"Pro Lage" bedeutet, daß die Behälter in der angegebenen Anzahl nebeneinander auf eine Standardpalette mit einer Fläche von 1.200 mm x 800 mm passen. Die Behälter haben dabei keinerlei seitlichen Überstand."Per-layer" means that the number of containers in the specified number will fit next to each other on a standard pallet of 1,200 mm x 800 mm. The containers have no lateral projection.

Bei Einhaltung der angegebenen Toleranzen wirken die erfindungsgemäßen Behälter trotz unterschiedlicher Größe formgleich. Allein die Form des Behälters gewährleistet also einen Wiedererkennungswert.If the specified tolerances are maintained, the containers according to the invention have the same shape despite different sizes. Only the shape of the container ensures a recognition value.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform hat das Korpus des Eimers einen über seine Höhe im wesentlichen konstanten Konuswinkel. Dadurch ist eine einfache Entformbarkeit gewährleistet.In a preferred embodiment, the body of the bucket has a substantially constant cone angle over its height. This ensures easy demoldability.

Der Stapelstauchdruck wird am besten von steilen, idealerweise senkrechten Seitenwänden des Korpus aufgenommen. In der Kunststoff-Spritzgußtechnik bedarf es aber einer gewissen Entformungskonizität.The stack compression pressure is best absorbed by steep, ideally vertical side walls of the body. In the plastic injection molding but it requires a certain Entformungskonizität.

Die durch den glatten Übergang von drei Kreisbögen definierte geometrische Form des erfindungsgemäßen Behälters ist eindeutig. Spiegelsymmetrie zu der Längs- und Quermittelebene und einen über die Höhe konstanten Konuswinkel voraussetzend, sind in dem kartesischen Koordinatensystem der Fig. 1 die Scheitel P1, P2 und die Mittelpunkte M1, M2 der Kreisbögen daran bis auf einen gebindegrößenabhängigen Proportionalitätsfaktor - gleichbedeutend mit dem Skalenfaktor der Zeichnung - eindeutig definiert: P1 (1/2, 0); P2 (0, b/2); M1 (1/2 - RS, 0); M2 (0, b/2 - RL). Damit lassen sich Kreisgleichungen für die Kreisbögen an den Scheiteln P1, P2 aufstellen. Die zunächst unbekannten Übergangspunkte S1, S2 zwischen den drei Kreisbögen liegen auf den Kreisbögen an den Scheiteln P1, P2, sind also durch je eine einzige Unbekannte definiert. Die Unbekannten lassen sich dadurch eliminieren, daß wegen übereinstimmender Steigung an den Übergangspunkten S1, S2 der Mittelpunkt M3 des dritten Kreisbogens auf den Radien M1 - S1, M2 - S2 liegt und von den Übergangspunkten S1, S2 gleichen Abstand hat. Damit sind der Mittelpunkt M3 des dritten Kreisbogens und sein Radius eindeutig definiert.The defined by the smooth transition of three circular arcs geometric shape of the container according to the invention is unique. Assuming mirror symmetry to the longitudinal and transverse center plane and a conical angle constant over the height, in the Cartesian coordinate system of FIG. 1 the vertices P 1 , P 2 and the midpoints M 1 , M 2 of the circular arcs thereof are equivalent to a size-dependent proportionality factor with the scale factor of the drawing - clearly defined: P 1 (1/2, 0); P 2 (0, b / 2); M 1 (1/2 - R s , 0); M 2 (0, b / 2 - R L ). This allows circle equations for the circular arcs to the Crochet P 1 , P 2 . The initially unknown transition points S 1 , S 2 between the three circular arcs lie on the circular arcs at the vertices P 1 , P 2 , are thus defined by a single unknown. The unknowns can be eliminated by the fact that due to matching slope at the transition points S 1 , S 2, the center M 3 of the third arc on the radii M 1 - S 1 , M 2 - S 2 and from the transition points S 1 , S 2nd same distance has. Thus, the center M 3 of the third arc and its radius are clearly defined.

Fig. 2 zeigt, daß die zuvor erwähnten Maße sinnvollerweise an der Bodeninnenseite eines Behälters abgenommen werden.Fig. 2 shows that the aforementioned dimensions are usefully removed at the bottom inside of a container.

Die Paletten gemäß Fig. 6, Fig. 10 und Fig. 11 haben eine Standardgröße von 1.200 mm x 800 mm. Die darauf stehenden Behälter sind mit Tragbügeln dargestellt.The pallets according to FIGS. 6, 10 and 11 have a standard size of 1,200 mm × 800 mm. The containers standing on it are shown with carrying straps.

Claims (6)

  1. A container with a body of conical round shape, which has a base and an encircling side wall, is mirror-symmetrical to a longitudinal central plane and a transverse central plane by mutually opposing apices and widens towards an upper opening, characterised in that the side wall follows three circular arcs of a radius varying in pairs, namely a respective circular arc at the apices and a circular arc therebetween which merges continuously and with like inclination (smoothly) into the circular arcs at the apices.
  2. A container according to Claim 1, characterised in that between the distance 1 of the long-sided apex and the distance b of the transverse-sided apex (arbitrarily greater longitudinally than transversely) there is a ratio 1 / b of 1.5 ± 0.2, preferably 1.5 ± 0.15.
  3. A container according to Claim 1 or 2, characterised in that the radius RS of the circular arc is greater on the long-sided apex (randomly greater longitudinally than transversely) than the radius RL on the transverse-sided apex.
  4. A container according to Claim 3, characterised in that between the radius RS of the circular arc on long-sided apex and the radius RL of the circular arc on the transverse-sided apex there is a ratio RS / RL of 1.25 ± 0.1, preferably 1.25 ± 0.05.
  5. A container according to any one of Claims 1 to 4, characterised by the following reference constants between the dimensions on the inside of the base, wherein RM is the radius of the transitional circular arc between the circular arcs at the apices: Multipack 1/b RS/RM RL/RM 12.5 l 1.47 6.53 5.23 11 per layer 12.5 l 1.47 6.49 5.00 10 per layer 15.0 l 1.42 6.57 5.36 10 per layer 15.0 l 1.63 6.42 5.33 9 per layer Reference constant 1.5 ± 0.2 6.5 ± 0.2 5.2 ± 0.2
  6. A container according to any one of Claims 1 to 5, characterised in that the body has a substantially constant cone angle over its height.
