Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Schutzecke zum Schutz einer Abstellfläche oder einer Umwicklung eines Behälters gegen Beschädigungen durch Standfüße des Behälters nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a protective corner for protecting a storage surface or a wrapping of a container against damage by feet of the container according to the preamble of claim 1.

In medizinischen Einrichtungen wie Krankenhäusern, Arztpraxen und ähnlichen Einrichtungen werden häufig größere Schalen oder Körbe mit oder ohne Standfüße zur Aufnahme von medizinischen Geräten und Instrumenten verwendet, wobei die Behälter entweder in Aufnahmegestelle eingesetzt sind oder auf einer Tischfläche abgestellt werden. Beim Verschieben auf einer Tischfläche, die nicht ausreichend gehärtet ist, können leicht Kratzer entstehen, wenn die Schalen stark beladen sind und aus Metall bestehen.In medical facilities, such as hospitals, medical practices and similar facilities, larger trays or baskets, with or without feet, are often used to hold medical equipment and instruments, with the containers either being placed in a receiving rack or placed on a table surface. When moving on a table surface that is not sufficiently hardened, scratches can easily occur when the trays are heavily loaded and made of metal.

Derartige Behälter werden jedoch auch zur Aufnahme von Geräten und Instrumenten verwendet, die zu sterilisieren sind. Hierbei wird der gesamte Behälter, einschließlich der darin befindlichen Instrumente und Geräte, mit einem dampfdurchlässigen Kreppvlies umwickelt und in dieser Weise in eine Sterilisiereinrichtung oder einen Autoklaven eingeführt. Sowohl beim Umwickeln als auch beim Einführen und Herausnehmen in und aus der Sterilisiervorrichtung kann das Kreppvlies leicht durch die Kanten des Behälters und insbesondere der Standfüße des Behälters beschädigt werden.However, such containers are also used to hold equipment and instruments that are to be sterilized. Here, the entire container, including the instruments and equipment therein, wrapped with a vapor-permeable crepe non-woven and introduced in this way in a sterilizer or autoclave. Both during wrapping and during insertion and removal in and out of the sterilizer, the crepe web can easily be damaged by the edges of the container and in particular the feet of the container.

Es ist bekannt, Standfüße oder Ecken derartiger Behälter dadurch zu schützen, dass eckförmig ausgebildete Papier- oder Pappelemente an oder unter die Eckelemente bzw. Standfüße der Behälter gesetzt werden. Derartige Schutzecken verbleiben bei der Sterilisierung des Behälters in der Umwicklung durch das Kreppvlies und werden nach Entfernen des Kreppvlieses zusammen mit diesem entsorgt.It is known to protect feet or corners of such containers in that eckförmig trained paper or cardboard elements are placed on or under the corner elements or feet of the container. Such protective corners remain during the sterilization of the container in the wrapping through the crepe nonwoven and are disposed of after removal of the crepe nonwoven together with this.

Solche Schutzecken bestehen in der Regel aus Papier oder Pappe und werden aus einem geeigneten Zuschnitt aufgestellt. Derzeit auf dem Markt angebotene Schutzecken bestehen aus einem Pappzuschnitt, dessen Grundfläche mit Einschnitten versehen ist, die zusammengeschoben werden können, um damit eine Schutzecke zu bilden. Die zusammengeschobenen Elemente des Zuschnitts weisen jedoch Vorsprünge und Kanten auf, die eine Beschädigung des Kreppvlieses hervorrufen können. Sie sind außerdem schwer handhabbar. Eine andere Art von Schutzecken besteht aus bereits fertig vorgeformtem Silikon. Diese können mehrfach verwendet werden. Eine Mehrfachverwendung von Hilfsprodukten im Work-Flow einer Sterilisationseinrichtung ist jedoch hinderlich und sollte vermieden werden.Such protective corners are usually made of paper or cardboard and are placed from a suitable blank. Protective corners currently available on the market consist of a cardboard blank, the base of which is provided with incisions which can be pushed together to form one Protective corner to form. The collapsed elements of the blank, however, have projections and edges which can cause damage to the crepe mat. They are also difficult to handle. Another type of protective corners consists of already preformed silicone. These can be used multiple times. However, multiple use of auxiliary products in the work flow of a sterilizer is a hindrance and should be avoided.

Eine Schutzecke aus Pappe ist aus der US 3 843 038 bekannt.A protective corner made of cardboard is from the US 3,843,038 known.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schutzecke zum Schutz einer Abstellfläche oder einer Umwicklung eines Behälters anzugeben, die einfach und kostengünstig hergestellt werden kann, leicht aufstellbar ist und eine Beschädigung der Umwicklung eines Behälters möglichst vermeidet.The invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a protective corner to protect a shelf or a wrap of a container that can be easily and inexpensively manufactured, is easy to set up and avoids damage to the wrapping of a container as possible.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Anspruch 1 angegebene Erfindung gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in Unteransprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by the invention defined in claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in subclaims.

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Schutzecke zum Schutz einer Abstellfläche oder einer Umwicklung eines Behälters gegen Beschädigungen durch Ecken oder Standfüße des Behälters, wobei die Schutzecke aus einem flächigen Zuschnitt gebildet ist, der zur Verwendung derart auffaltbar ist, dass eine ebene Grundfläche gebildet ist, die an zwei Kanten aufragende Seitenwände enthält.The invention relates to a protective corner for protecting a storage area or a wrapping of a container against damage by corners or feet of the container, wherein the protective corner is formed from a flat blank which is unfoldable for use such that a flat base is formed, the Contains upstanding side walls on two edges.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist die Schutzecke aus einem im Wesentlichen rechteckigen oder quadratischen Papp-, Papier- oder Kunststoffblatt gebildet. An zwei aneinander angrenzenden Kanten sind erste und zweite Flächenteile über Faltkanten von der verbleibenden Grundfläche abgegrenzt. Die rechteckigen Flächenteile sind durch einen Schnitt entlang einer Faltkante voneinander getrennt. Im zweiten Flächenteil ist in einem Winkel von 45° eine Faltlinie gebildet, wobei das dadurch gebildete dritte Flächenteil über eine Klebstoffverbindung mit dem von dem ersten Flächenteil über die Faltkante des zweiten Flächenteils gebildeten Abschnitt verbunden ist. Zum Zusammenlegen und Aufrichten der Schutzecken sind die die Seitenteile bildenden Flächenteile entlang der Faltkanten auf die Grundfläche einklappbar und davon aufrichtbar.According to the invention, the protective corner is formed from a substantially rectangular or square paperboard, paper or plastic sheet. At two adjoining edges, first and second surface parts are delimited over folding edges from the remaining base surface. The rectangular surface parts are separated by a cut along a folding edge. In the second surface part, a folding line is formed at an angle of 45 °, wherein the third surface part formed thereby is connected via an adhesive connection with the section formed by the first surface part via the folding edge of the second surface part. For collapsing and erecting the protective corners, the surface parts forming the side parts can be folded along the folded edges onto the base surface and can be erected therefrom.

Die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung der Schutzecke erlaubt die Herstellung aus einem flächigen Papp-, Papier- oder Kunststoffzuschnitt, bei dem nur zwei Flächenelemente durch eine Klebeverbindung miteinander verbunden werden. Eine geschickte Ausbildung der Faltkanten ermöglicht es, dass die seitlichen Flächenteile auf die Grundfläche aufgefaltet werden können. Dadurch ist es möglich, eine Schutzecke auszubilden, die in unbenutztem Zustand als flächiges Element nur eine Größe aufweist, welche der Größe der Grundfläche entspricht. Zur Benutzung werden lediglich die seitlichen Flächenteile aufgerichtet, ohne dass ein Ineinanderschieben zweier Flächenteile erforderlich wäre.The inventive design of the protective corner allows the production of a flat cardboard, paper or plastic blank, in which only two surface elements are connected by an adhesive bond. A clever design of the folded edges makes it possible that the lateral surface parts can be unfolded on the base. This makes it possible to form a protective corner, which has in the unused state as a flat element only one size, which corresponds to the size of the base area. For use, only the lateral surface parts are erected, without a telescoping of two surface parts would be required.

Nach Gebrauch können derartige Schutzecken ohne weiteres entsorgt werden.After use, such protective corners can be easily disposed of.

In bevorzugter Gestaltung der Erfindung ist die Schutzecke am Schnittpunkt zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Flächenteil ausgestanzt oder ausgeschnitten. Dies erleichtert einerseits das Falten der Seitenteile und andererseits vermeidet es bei der Benutzung Eckausbildungen, in denen sich Flüssigkeit sammeln könnte.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the protective corner is punched or cut out at the intersection between the first and the second surface part. On the one hand, this facilitates the folding of the side parts and, on the other hand, it avoids corner formations during use in which liquid could collect.

Die äußeren Ecken der Grundfläche und/oder der seitlichen Flächenteile können abgerundet ausgebildet sein, um ein Verhaken oder Verletzen der Umwicklung eines Behälters zu vermeiden, und auch Irritationen der Hand eines Benutzers oder von Handschuhen, die der Benutzer trägt, zu vermeiden.The outer corners of the base and / or the lateral surface portions may be rounded to avoid snagging or hemming the wrapping of a container, and also to avoid irritation of a user's hand or gloves worn by the user.

Die Verbindung zwischen dem dritten Flächenteil und der Klapplasche des ersten Flächenteils erfolgt insbesondere über eine Klebstoffverbindung. Anstelle einer Klebstoffverbindung kann auch eine Prägeverbindung verwendet werden. Hierdurch kann auf die Verwendung eines Zusatzstoffes bei der Herstellung der Schutzecken verzichtet werden.The connection between the third surface part and the folding pocket of the first surface part takes place in particular via an adhesive connection. Instead of an adhesive connection and a stamped connection can be used. As a result, it is possible to dispense with the use of an additive in the production of the protective corners.

In einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann die Grundfläche eine diagonale Faltkante enthalten, über die eine Hälfte der Grundfläche auf die andere Hälfte aufgeklappt werden kann, um so die Grundfläche in doppelter Lage auszubilden. Dies kann hilfreich sein, wenn sehr schwere Instrumentenkörbe zu schützen sind, die einen erheblichen Standfußdruck ausüben.In a further embodiment of the invention, the base surface may include a diagonal fold edge over which half of the base can be opened onto the other half so as to form the base in a double position. This can be helpful when protecting very heavy instrument baskets that exert considerable foot pressure.

Die Schutzecke ist insbesondere aus Zellulosekarton, vorzugsweise einem standardisierten GC1-Karton, gebildet. Der verwendete Klebstoff ist insbesondere bis 150°C temperaturbeständig, um den Kleber auch im Sterilisationsbetrieb funktionsfähig zu halten.The protective corner is formed in particular from cellulose cardboard, preferably a standardized GC1 cardboard. The adhesive used is temperature resistant, in particular up to 150 ° C, in order to keep the adhesive functional even in sterilization operation.

The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to an embodiment. Show it:
Fig. 1
a blank of a protective corner of a flat cardboard,

Fig. 3
a view of a largely erected protective corner according to the invention.

Der in Fig. 1 dargestellte Zuschnitt enthält eine im Wesentlichen rechteckige, insbesondere quadratische Grundfläche 1 sowie erste und zweite Flächenteile 2 und 3, die über eine erste Faltkante 8 bzw. eine zweite Faltkante 9 von der Grundfläche 1 abgegrenzt sind. In Verlängerung der Faltkante 9 verläuft ein Spalt 7 sowie in Verlängerung der Faltkante 8 eine Faltlinie 14, über die eine Klapplasche 4 von dem ersten Flächenteil 2 abgegrenzt ist. Im Schnittpunkt der Faltkanten 8 und 9 befindet sich eine rechteckförmige oder runde Öffnung 10.The in Fig. 1 The blank shown contains a substantially rectangular, in particular square, base area 1 and first and second area parts 2 and 3, which are delimited from the base area 1 via a first folding edge 8 and a second folding edge 9, respectively. In extension of the folding edge 9, a gap 7 and in extension of the folding edge 8 a fold line 14, via which a folding flap 4 is delimited from the first surface part 2 extends. At the intersection of the folding edges 8 and 9 is a rectangular or round opening 10th

Von dem zweiten Flächenteil 3 ist ein Haltedreieck 5 über eine um 45° gegenüber der Faltkante 8 verlaufende Knicklinie 15 abgegrenzt.Of the second surface part 3, a support triangle 5 is delimited over a 45 ° to the folding edge 8 extending crease line 15.

Fig. 1 zeigt auch die Option, in der Grundfläche 1 eine diagonale Faltlinie 11 einzuprägen. Ein dreieckförmiger Teil der Grundfläche 1 kann damit nach innen auf den übrigen Teil der Grundfläche aufgeklappt werden kann. Dadurch bildet sich eine doppellagige Grundfläche mit dreieckförmigem Grundriss. Ferner zeigt Figur 1 Abrundungen 13 an allen äußeren Ecken des Zuschnitts, die eine potenzielle Beschädigung einer Umwicklung des Behälters oder Irritationen von Handschuhen oder Händen verhindern können. Fig. 1 also shows the option to engrave in the base 1 a diagonal fold line 11. A triangular part of the base 1 can thus be folded inwards on the remaining part of the base. This forms a double-layered base with a triangular floor plan. Further shows FIG. 1 Roundings 13 at all outer corners of the blank which may prevent potential damage to the wrapping of the container or irritation of gloves or hands.

Zur Herstellung der Schutzecke wird der erste Flächenteil 2 entlang der Faltkante 9 um 90° nach oben aufgeklappt. Ferner wird die daran hängende Klapplasche 4 entlang der Faltlinie 14 um 90° eingeklappt. Das zweite Flächenteil 3 wird zusammen mit dem Haltedreieck 5 ebenfalls um 90° entlang der Faltlinie 8 aufgerichtet. Über die Klebfläche 6 wird die Klapplasche 4 nun mit dem dreieckförmigen Haltedreieck 5 verbunden. Damit ist die Schutzecke bereits komplett hergestellt.To produce the protective corner of the first surface part 2 is folded along the folding edge 9 by 90 ° upwards. Furthermore, the folding flap 4 hanging thereon is folded in along the folding line 14 by 90 °. The second surface part 3 is also erected together with the support triangle 5 by 90 ° along the fold line 8. About the adhesive surface 6, the flap 4 is now connected to the triangular support triangle 5. Thus, the protective corner is already completely made.

Durch Einknicken der Knicklinie 15 und weiteres Umfalten der ersten und zweiten Flächenteile 2, 3 auf die Grundfläche 1 lässt sich ein Zustand der Schutzecke ausbilden, der in Fig. 2 entsprechend dargestellt ist. Diese zusammengefaltete Schutzecke benötigt nur geringen Platz und kann daher in großer Stückzahl auf engem Raum gestapelt werden. In diesem Zustand erfolgt die Auslieferung der Schutzecke.By buckling the bending line 15 and further folding of the first and second surface parts 2, 3 on the base 1, a state of the protective corner can be formed, which in Fig. 2 is shown accordingly. This folded corner requires little space and can therefore be stacked in large quantities in a small space. In this state, the delivery of the protective corner.

Zur Benutzung wird eine derartige Schutzecke durch Anheben der ersten und zweiten Flächenteile 2 und 3 entlang der ersten und zweiten Faltkanten 8 und 9 in die Benutzungsstellung gebracht. Fig. 3 zeigt den Zustand einer Schutzecke kurz vor der vollständigen Aufrichtung. Es ist zu erkennen, dass die Klapplasche 4 mit dem Haltedreieck 5 verbunden ist und das Haltedreieck über die Kicklinie 15 so mit dem zweiten Flächenteil 3 verbunden ist, dass die Faltkanten 8 und 9 in Zusammenwirken mit der Knicklinie 15 und der Faltlinie 14 ein kombiniertes Faltgelenk bilden. Da die Unterseite der Klapplasche 4 beim Aus- und Einklappen die Grundfläche 1 berührt, ergibt sich auch eine Selbsthemmung der Schutzecke im aufgeklappten Zustand.For use, such a protective corner is brought into the use position by lifting the first and second surface parts 2 and 3 along the first and second folded edges 8 and 9. Fig. 3 shows the condition of a protective corner just before the complete erection. It can be seen that the flap 4 is connected to the support triangle 5 and the support triangle is connected via the kick line 15 with the second surface part 3, that the folding edges 8 and 9 in cooperation with the fold line 15 and the fold line 14 a combined folding joint form. Since the underside of the flap 4 touches the base 1 when unfolding and folding, there is also a self-locking of the protective corner in the unfolded state.
