Definitions
- the invention relates to a thermal insulation container according to the preamble of claim 1 or according to the preamble of claim 5.
- Insulating container of the type mentioned are used, inter alia, for the transport of hot or refrigerated food. They have a container base with a bottom and from the bottom vertically upwardly extending walls that surround a receiving space rings. On a peripheral upper edge of the container base a lid is placed, which closes the receiving space upwards. Both the container base and the lid are made of a particle foam and formed in one piece.
- insulated containers are known in which on two opposite walls over the outer surface protruding beads are formed, forming the handles for the user.
- each bead is completely covered by the lid, whose outer contour is adapted in the region of the bead for this purpose to the outer contour of the bead.
- a vertical outer surface at the outer edge of the lid is in alignment with a vertical outer surface of the bead. This causes an increase in the height of the bead when the cover is put on, so that the user who attacks with his fingers underneath the bead can often not embrace it by placing the handball on an upper roof surface of the bead.
- the invention is based on the idea that the trained in the form of a bead handles are not increased by covering by means of the lid, so that they can be encompassed by the user's hand by this puts the palm of your hand on the roof surface of the handle.
- the insulated container can thus be better grasped.
- the outer edge of the lid is aligned at least on the walls having the handles and preferably on all walls with the outer surface of the respective wall. This has the added benefit that for the insulated container with molded handles the same lid can be used as for a Isolier practicer same dimensions, but does not have the handles. In addition, less material is needed for such a lid, so that it is cheaper to manufacture.
- the handles on their underside each have a downwardly open recessed grip, so that the user can intervene there with his fingers.
- the gripping of the insulated container is facilitated if, according to an advantageous development, the handles each have a roof surface sloping downwards from the outer surface of the respective wall.
- the lower part of the container expediently has a region of lesser wall thickness at the inner sides, facing the receiving space, of the walls having the gripping cut-outs so that, for example, a food container stored in the insulated container can be gripped better.
- the region of lesser wall thickness extends from the upper edge downwards and ends above the upper end of the first section of the gripping cutout, so that both reductions in the wall thickness are arranged at different locations.
- Thermal insulated containers are often stacked during transport. If an insulated container is placed on a soiled surface, so dirt particles can adhere to the underside of its bottom, which are transferred to another lid when stacking on another insulating container. In particular, when the insulated container is used for the transport of food, a dirt adhesion to the customer visible top of the lid is undesirable because it suggests a lack of hygiene.
- the feet are arranged so that they rest against a stack edge surrounding the recess in the lid when the container base is placed on the lid. As a result, stacked insulated containers are secured against lateral slipping.
- the cover expediently has a first sealing part facing the receiving space, which rests against an inner side of the upper edge. Furthermore, it is preferred that the cover has a second sealing part resting against an outer side of the upper edge facing away from the receiving space, so that the upper edge is at least partially encompassed by the lid. As a result, a good sealing effect is achieved.
- the second sealing part can be interrupted in the area of the handles in order to be able to better produce an inner skin on the lower part of the container.
- the thermal insulating container 10 according to the first embodiment (FIG. Fig. 1a . 1b . 2 ) has a container base 12 which is made in one piece of a particle foam, in the present embodiment expanded polypropylene (EPP), and a lid 14 made of the same material.
- the container base 12 has a bottom 16 with a rectangular outline, from which extending two longitudinal walls 18 and two transverse walls 20 vertically upward, each of the longitudinal walls 18 is connected to the two transverse walls 20 and vice versa.
- the walls 18, 20 form a circumferential upper edge 22, on which the lid 14 rests.
- the container bottom 12 and the lid 14 include a receiving space 24 and thermally isolate this from the environment.
- each handle 28 is bounded by a roof surface 32 inclined sloping at an acute angle to the outer surface 26 of the respective transverse wall 20 in a direction away from the receiving space 24.
- the cover 14 surrounding the surrounding outer edge 34 is circumferentially arranged with the outer surfaces 26 of the walls 18, 20 in alignment, so that the cover 14, the roof surfaces 32 is not covered.
- the thermal insulating container 110 according to the second embodiment differs from the thermal insulated container described above 10 in some details. Identical features are therefore provided with the same reference numerals.
- the insulated container 110 has a container base 12 with a bottom, two longitudinal walls 18 and two transverse walls 20 and a lid 14, wherein the container base 12 and the lid 14 enclose a receiving space 24 and thermally insulated from the environment.
- the insulating container 110 does not have any handles projecting from the outer surfaces 26 of the walls 18, 20, but the container lower part 12 is provided with gripping cutouts 36 in the region of the base 16.
- Each of the gripping cutouts 36 has a first portion 38 which is open to the outer surface 26 of one of the transverse walls 20 and extends slightly upwards in the respective transverse wall 20, and a second portion 40 in the bottom 16 which leads to an underside 42 of the Floor 16 is open and extends in the bottom 16 to just below the receiving space 24, so that a user can insert his fingers completely or almost completely in the second portions 40.
- the insulating container 110 at the receiving space 24 facing inner sides 44 of the transverse walls 20 each have a region 46 with a smaller wall thickness, which extends from the upper edge 22 down.
- the region 46 of lesser wall thickness ends above the upper end 48 of the first section 38 of the associated gripping cutout 36.
- Both illustrated insulating container 10, 110 have from the bottom 42 of the bottom 16 downwardly projecting feet 50 and on the receiving space 24 facing away from the top 52 of the lid 14 from a stack edge 54 rings surrounded by recess 56.
- the feet 50 are arranged so that when the insulating container 10, 110 is stacked on an identical insulating container 10, 110, engage in the recess 56 of the lid 14 and there abut the side of the stacking edge 54.
- the height of the feet 50 is less than the depth of the recess 56, so that the mounting surfaces 58 of the feet 50 do not come into contact with the lid 14.
- the lid has a circumferential first sealing portion 60 which bears against an inner side of the upper edge 22 facing the receiving space 24, and a second sealing portion 62 which abuts against an outer side of the upper edge 22 facing away from the receiving space 24, so that the upper edge 22 is embraced to achieve better thermal insulation.
- the second sealing part 62 has an interruption 64 in the area of the handles 28 or in the region of the gripping cutouts 36.
- the walls 18, 20 have gripping recesses 66 in the region of the upper corners below the upper edge 22.
- the inner sides 44 of the walls 18, 20, the lower space 68 of the base 16 bounding the receiving space 24 and the underside 70 of the lid 14 upwardly delimiting the receiving space 24 are also provided with an inner skin, as in FIG DE 20 2010 005 090 U1 whose disclosure in this respect is included in the present application.
- the invention relates to a thermal insulation container 10 with a bottom 16 and upwardly extending from the bottom 16, a receiving space 24 enclosing walls 18, 20 having one-piece container bottom part 12 of a particle foam and with a peripheral edge on a peripheral 22 of the container base 12 resting, the receiving space 24 upwardly closing lid 14 made of the particle foam, wherein the container base 12 on two opposite walls 20 each have a remote from the receiving space 24 outer surface 26 above, integrally molded handle 28.
- the handles 28 in each case protrude horizontally over an outer edge 34 of the lid 14.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen thermischen Isolierbehälter gemäß Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 bzw. gemäß Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 5.The invention relates to a thermal insulation container according to the preamble of claim 1 or according to the preamble of claim 5.
Isolierbehälter der eingangs genannten Art werden unter anderem für den Transport von warmen oder gekühlten Lebensmitteln verwendet. Sie weisen ein Behälterunterteil mit einem Boden und sich vom Boden senkrecht nach oben erstreckenden Wänden auf, die einen Aufnahmeraum rings umschließen. Auf einem umlaufenden oberen Rand des Behälterunterteils ist ein Deckel aufgesetzt, der den Aufnahmeraum nach oben verschließt. Sowohl das Behälterunterteil als auch der Deckel sind aus einem Partikelschaumstoff gefertigt und einstückig ausgebildet.Insulating container of the type mentioned are used, inter alia, for the transport of hot or refrigerated food. They have a container base with a bottom and from the bottom vertically upwardly extending walls that surround a receiving space rings. On a peripheral upper edge of the container base a lid is placed, which closes the receiving space upwards. Both the container base and the lid are made of a particle foam and formed in one piece.
Es sind Isolierbehälter bekannt, bei denen an zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Wänden über deren Außenfläche vorstehende Wulste angeformt sind, die Handgriffe für den Benutzer bilden. Bei den bekannten Isolierbehältern wird jeder Wulst vollständig vom Deckel überdeckt, dessen Außenkontur im Bereich des Wulsts zu diesem Zweck an die Außenkontur des Wulsts angepasst ist. Eine senkrechte Außenfläche am Außenrand des Deckels fluchtet mit einer senkrechten Außenfläche des Wulsts. Dies bewirkt bei aufgesetztem Deckel quasi eine Vergrößerung der Höhe des Wulsts, so dass der Benutzer, der mit den Fingern unterhalb des Wulsts angreift, diesen oft nicht durch Auflegen des Handballens auf eine obere Dachfläche des Wulsts umgreifen kann.There are insulated containers are known in which on two opposite walls over the outer surface protruding beads are formed, forming the handles for the user. In the known insulating containers each bead is completely covered by the lid, whose outer contour is adapted in the region of the bead for this purpose to the outer contour of the bead. A vertical outer surface at the outer edge of the lid is in alignment with a vertical outer surface of the bead. This causes an increase in the height of the bead when the cover is put on, so that the user who attacks with his fingers underneath the bead can often not embrace it by placing the handball on an upper roof surface of the bead.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen thermischen Isolierbehälter der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, dass er einfacher zu handhaben ist.It is therefore an object of the invention to develop a thermal insulation container of the type mentioned in such a way that it is easier to handle.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch einen thermischen Isolierbehälter mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This object is achieved by a thermal insulation container with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
Der Erfindung liegt der Gedanke zugrunde, dass die in Form eines Wulsts ausgebildeten Handgriffe nicht durch Überdecken mittels des Deckels zusätzlich erhöht werden, so dass sie von der Hand des Benutzers umgriffen werden können, indem dieser den Handballen auf die Dachfläche des Handgriffs legt. Der Isolierbehälter kann damit besser gegriffen werden. Dabei wird bevorzugt, dass der Außenrand des Deckels zumindest an den die Handgriffe aufweisenden Wänden und vorzugsweise an allen Wänden mit der Außenfläche der jeweiligen Wand fluchtet. Dies hat den zusätzlichen Nutzen, dass für den Isolierbehälter mit angeformten Handgriffen derselbe Deckel verwendet werden kann wie für einen Isolierbehälter gleicher Abmessungen, der die Handgriffe aber nicht aufweist. Zudem wird für einen solchen Deckel weniger Material benötigt, so dass er günstiger zu fertigen ist. Zweckmäßig weisen die Handgriffe an ihrer Unterseite jeweils eine nach unten offene Griffmulde auf, so dass der Benutzer dort mit den Fingern eingreifen kann. Zudem wird das Greifen des Isolierbehälters erleichtert, wenn gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung die Handgriffe nach oben jeweils eine von der Außenfläche der jeweiligen Wand weg nach unten geneigte Dachfläche aufweisen.The invention is based on the idea that the trained in the form of a bead handles are not increased by covering by means of the lid, so that they can be encompassed by the user's hand by this puts the palm of your hand on the roof surface of the handle. The insulated container can thus be better grasped. It is preferred that the outer edge of the lid is aligned at least on the walls having the handles and preferably on all walls with the outer surface of the respective wall. This has the added benefit that for the insulated container with molded handles the same lid can be used as for a Isolierbehälter same dimensions, but does not have the handles. In addition, less material is needed for such a lid, so that it is cheaper to manufacture. Suitably, the handles on their underside each have a downwardly open recessed grip, so that the user can intervene there with his fingers. In addition, the gripping of the insulated container is facilitated if, according to an advantageous development, the handles each have a roof surface sloping downwards from the outer surface of the respective wall.
Es sind desweiteren Isolierbehälter der eingangs genannten Art bekannt, die statt über die Außenflächen des Behälterunterteils vorstehende Handgriffe Greifausschnitte im Behälterunterteil aufweisen. Diese Isolierbehälter weisen geringere Abmessungen auf als die Isolierbehälter mit angeformten, vorstehenden Handgriffen, so dass durch Einhaltung eines Standardmaßes vier solche Isolierbehälter in einer Ebene auf einer Standardpalette transportiert werden können. Dabei besteht das Problem, dass ein zu tiefer Greifausschnitt die Wanddicke des Behälterunterteils zu stark verringert, so dass in seinem Bereich die Isolierwirkung eingeschränkt ist, während ein zu flacher Greifausschnitt schlecht zu greifen ist.There are also known Isolierbehälter of the aforementioned type, which instead of over the outer surfaces of the container base protruding handles have gripping cutouts in the container bottom. These insulated containers have smaller dimensions than the insulated container with molded, protruding handles, so that four such insulated containers can be transported in one plane on a standard pallet by observing a standard dimension. In this case, there is the problem that too deep a gripping cutout reduces the wall thickness of the container lower part too much, so that in its area the insulating effect is limited, while a too flat gripping cutout is difficult to grasp.
Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe, einen vorbekannten Isolierbehälter derart weiterzubilden, dass er einfacher zu handhaben ist, wird daher alternativ durch die in Anspruch 5 wiedergegebene Merkmalskombination gelöst. Dieser erfindungsgemäßen Lösung liegt der Gedanke zugrunde, den Greifausschnitt teilweise im Bereich des Bodens anzuordnen, wo er nahezu beliebig weit in Richtung quer zur betreffenden Wand verlaufen kann, ohne diese zu schwächen. Dabei wird bevorzugt, den zweiten Abschnitt jedes der Greifausschnitte bis direkt unter den Aufnahmeraum zu führen, so dass der Benutzer das Behälterunterteil im Bereich der Greifausschnitte über die volle Länge seiner Finger untergreifen und sicher hochheben kann.The problem underlying the invention to further develop a previously known insulated container in such a way that it is easier to handle is therefore achieved, alternatively, by the feature combination reproduced in claim 5. This solution according to the invention is based on the idea to arrange the gripping cutout partially in the region of the bottom, where it can run almost arbitrarily far in the direction transverse to the relevant wall, without weakening it. In this case, it is preferable to guide the second section of each of the gripping cutouts to just below the receiving space, so that the user can reach underneath the container base in the region of the gripping cutouts over the full length of his fingers and lift them up safely.
Zweckmäßig weist das Behälterunterteil an den dem Aufnahmeraum zugewandten Innenseiten der die Greifausschnitte aufweisenden Wände jeweils einen Bereich geringerer Wanddicke auf, so dass beispielsweise ein im Isolierbehälter gelagerter Lebensmittelbehälter besser ergriffen werden kann. Dabei erstreckt sich der Bereich geringerer Wanddicke vom oberen Rand nach unten und endet oberhalb des oberen Endes des ersten Abschnitts des Greifausschnitts, so dass beide Verringerungen der Wanddicke an unterschiedlichen Stellen angeordnet sind.The lower part of the container expediently has a region of lesser wall thickness at the inner sides, facing the receiving space, of the walls having the gripping cut-outs so that, for example, a food container stored in the insulated container can be gripped better. In this case, the region of lesser wall thickness extends from the upper edge downwards and ends above the upper end of the first section of the gripping cutout, so that both reductions in the wall thickness are arranged at different locations.
Thermische Isolierbehälter werden beim Transport oft aufeinander gestapelt. Wird ein Isolierbehälter auf einem verschmutzten Untergrund abgestellt, so können an der Unterseite seines Bodens Schmutzpartikel anhaften, die beim Stapeln auf einen anderen Isolierbehälter auf dessen Deckel übertragen werden. Insbesondere dann, wenn der Isolierbehälter für den Transport von Lebensmitteln benutzt wird, ist eine Schmutzanhaftung auf der einem Kunden sichtbaren Oberseite des Deckels unerwünscht, da sie mangelnde Hygiene suggeriert. Es wird daher erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, alternativ oder zusätzlich zu den oben genannten Maßnahmen den Boden mit aus seiner dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandten Unterseite vorstehenden Füßen zu versehen, während der Deckel an seiner dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandten Oberseite eine rings umrandete Vertiefung aufweist, die zur Aufnahme der Füße eines baugleichen Isolierbehälters bestimmt ist, wobei die Höhe der Füße kleiner ist als die Tiefe der Vertiefung zumindest in dem Bereich, in dem sie beim Stapeln der Isolierbehälter die Füße aufnimmt. Die gegebenenfalls verschmutzten Aufstellflächen der Füße kommen dann nicht in Kontakt mit dem Deckel, so dass eine Übertragung der Verschmutzung durch Abrieb vermieden wird.Thermal insulated containers are often stacked during transport. If an insulated container is placed on a soiled surface, so dirt particles can adhere to the underside of its bottom, which are transferred to another lid when stacking on another insulating container. In particular, when the insulated container is used for the transport of food, a dirt adhesion to the customer visible top of the lid is undesirable because it suggests a lack of hygiene. It is therefore proposed according to the invention, alternatively or in addition to the above measures, to provide the floor with its bottom facing away from the receiving space underside protruding feet, while the lid facing away from the receiving space Upper side has a ring-shaped depression, which is intended to receive the feet of a similar insulating container, wherein the height of the feet is smaller than the depth of the recess at least in the area in which it receives the feet when stacking the insulating. The optionally contaminated footprint of the feet then do not come into contact with the lid, so that transmission of contamination by abrasion is avoided.
Es wird bevorzugt, dass die Füße so angeordnet sind, dass sie an einem die Vertiefung im Deckel umrandenden Stapelrand anliegen, wenn das Behälterunterteil auf den Deckel aufgesetzt wird. Dadurch werden aufeinander gestapelte Isolierbehälter gegen seitliches Verrutschen gesichert.It is preferred that the feet are arranged so that they rest against a stack edge surrounding the recess in the lid when the container base is placed on the lid. As a result, stacked insulated containers are secured against lateral slipping.
Zweckmäßig weist der Deckel eine dem Aufnahmeraum zugewandte erste Dichtpartie auf, die an einer Innenseite des oberen Rands anliegt. Desweiteren wird bevorzugt, dass der Deckel eine an einer dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandten Außenseite des oberen Rands anliegende zweite Dichtpartie aufweist, so dass der obere Rand zumindest abschnittsweise vom Deckel umgriffen wird. Dadurch wird eine gute Dichtwirkung erzielt. Die zweite Dichtpartie kann im Bereich der Handgriffe unterbrochen sein, um eine Innenhaut am Behälterunterteil besser herstellen zu können.The cover expediently has a first sealing part facing the receiving space, which rests against an inner side of the upper edge. Furthermore, it is preferred that the cover has a second sealing part resting against an outer side of the upper edge facing away from the receiving space, so that the upper edge is at least partially encompassed by the lid. As a result, a good sealing effect is achieved. The second sealing part can be interrupted in the area of the handles in order to be able to better produce an inner skin on the lower part of the container.

Beide dargestellten Isolierbehälter 10, 110 weisen von der Unterseite 42 des Bodens 16 nach unten abstehende Füße 50 sowie an der dem Aufnahmeraum 24 abgewandten Oberseite 52 des Deckels 14 eine von einem Stapelrand 54 rings umrandete Vertiefung 56 auf. Die Füße 50 sind dabei so angeordnet, dass sie, wenn der Isolierbehälter 10, 110 auf einen identischen Isolierbehälter 10, 110 gestapelt wird, in die Vertiefung 56 von dessen Deckel 14 eingreifen und dort seitlich am Stapelrand 54 anliegen. Die Höhe der Füße 50 ist dabei geringer als die Tiefe der Vertiefung 56, so dass die Aufstellflächen 58 der Füße 50 nicht in Berührung mit dem Deckel 14 kommen.Both illustrated insulating
Bei beiden Ausführungsbeispielen weist der Deckel eine umlaufende erste Dichtpartie 60 auf, die an einer dem Aufnahmeraum 24 zugewandten Innenseite des oberen Rands 22 anliegt, sowie eine zweite Dichtpartie 62, die an einer dem Aufnahmeraum 24 abgewandten Außenseite des oberen Rands 22 anliegt, so dass der obere Rand 22 zur Erzielung einer besseren thermischen Isolierung umgriffen wird. Um den Deckel 14 besser vom Behälterunterteil 12 abnehmen zu können, weist die zweite Dichtpartie 62 jeweils im Bereich der Handgriffe 28 bzw. im Bereich der Greifausschnitte 36 eine Unterbrechung 64 auf. Zudem weisen die Wände 18, 20 im Bereich der oberen Ecken unterhalb des oberen Rands 22 Greifausnehmungen 66 auf.In both embodiments, the lid has a circumferential first sealing
Die Innenseiten 44 der Wände 18, 20, die den Aufnahmeraum 24 nach unten begrenzende Bodenfläche 68 des Bodens 16 und die den Aufnahmeraum 24 nach oben begrenzende Unterseite 70 des Deckels 14 sind zudem mit einer Innenhaut versehen, wie in der
Zusammenfassend ist folgendes festzuhalten: Die Erfindung betrifft einen thermischen Isolierbehälter 10 mit einem einen Boden 16 und sich vom Boden 16 nach oben erstreckenden, einen Aufnahmeraum 24 rings umschließenden Wänden 18, 20 aufweisenden einstückigen Behälterunterteil 12 aus einem Partikelschaumstoff und mit einem auf einem umlaufenden oberen Rand 22 des Behälterunterteils 12 aufliegenden, den Aufnahmeraum 24 nach oben verschließenden Deckel 14 aus dem Partikelschaumstoff, wobei das Behälterunterteil 12 an zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Wänden 20 jeweils einen aus der dem Aufnahmeraum 24 abgewandten Außenfläche 26 vorstehenden, einstückig angeformten Handgriff 28 aufweist.
