Description

CONTAINER WALL, CONTAINER WITH SUCH A CONTAINER PANEL WALL AND TRANSPORT CONTAINER WITH SUCH

CONTAINER

The invention relates to a container side wall for containers and a container with at least one such container side wall. Furthermore, the invention relates to a transport goods container with such container.

The container side wall acts as a stabilizer. Such stabilizers, e.g. So-called "sandwich structures", are well known and find use in a variety of applications, such as insulation, truck -building, hall construction, billboards, stage construction, furniture, etc. Sandwich structures usually comprise two rigid cover layers, between which a lighter In the production of such sandwich structures, for example, first the cover layers are placed in a mold and held from the outside by means of pressure plates in the desired spacing or in shape and then filled with polyurethane foam, for example dimensionally stable core materials the cover layers are clamped with the core material in a mold and pressed, glued or welded This production is relatively labor-intensive and costly and requires additional forms and machines, which, for example, also consuming to reach Shape of the sandwich structure or shapes of the starting materials must be adjusted, which in turn makes the production of sandwich structures more expensive.

Container for contents and corresponding container side walls are also well known. An example of such containers are tons or barrels, cardboard boxes or termediate bulk container "(" IBC "), which are rigid and often rigid (" intermediate bulk container "," RIBC ") or also light and flexible (" flexible intermediate bulk container "," FIBC "), the latter also" These are often large bags of rectangular or round cross-section.The RIBCs, often made of metal or plastic, are often used for the transport of liquid or pasty substances, and FIBCs are frequently used for the transport of bulk materials, eg building materials such as sand. Grains or stones, but also of pharmaceutical substances, foodstuffs or their intermediates A description of such FIBCs can be found in the DIN EN standard 1898 (definition for flexible large packaging (FIBC)).

Due to the flexibility of the FIBCs, especially their side surfaces, bulk materials filled into a FIBC supported on a solid ground push its side surfaces outwards so that they assume a convex shape and the FIBC even tends to reach a spherical shape when suspended. As a result, on the one hand due to a smaller footprint a stability of the filled FIBCs is negatively affected, and on the other hand deteriorates an efficient use of space during transport or storage due to a "bulging" of the FIBCs.

So far, to reduce "bulging", rigid wood or plastic sheets have been placed in the FIBC, but in this case the sheets contact the stuffing and shipping goods and the sheets must be secured against tipping or falling over which makes handling before and during the filling process difficult and costs Alternatively, to stabilize the FIBC, also corner-applied tension is used, which however also contacts the filling and / or transport goods, then the plates must be provided with passage openings, since otherwise a more uniform filling of the FIBC is made more difficult only a moderate straightening of the outer shape of the FIBCs can be achieved, since pressure forces generated by the filling and / or transport material in the Substantially recorded and / or transmitted, which in turn reduces stability or handling of the FIBCs or difficult. Furthermore, FIBCs are also stabilized by means of an inner and an outer surface Asked or inserted, rigid plates, for example made of wood or metal, but due to a need for adjusting or insertion material surplus in inner and an outer surface, so a "game" between these surfaces, the handling of such FIBCs in particular before the filling difficult and the stability is reduced.

An object of the invention is accordingly to provide a lightweight, stable, easy to produce and inexpensive container side wall for containers. In addition, a lighter, easy-to-use container with at least one such container side wall to be specified, which in particular is foldable and is characterized by a good dimensional stability, especially in the filled state. Furthermore, a transport goods container, which comprises at least one such container to be specified.

This object is achieved with a container side wall with the features of claim 1. For this purpose, at least one connecting means for the two boundary surfaces in the region of the cavity is provided in the case of a container side wall with two parallel-oriented boundary surfaces which at least partially define a cavity, wherein the cavity is at least partially filled or fillable with a shape-stabilizable material. This results in a simple production and packaging of the container side wall, since a shape of the container side wall can be determined by means of a shape of the cavity. A labor, material and cost is thus reduced, since a use of complex forms or machines deleted. In addition, the container side walls can be flexible, stretchable or both. In addition, this provides a high cutting and puncture resistance, as well as a high tear propagation resistance. For example, at least one stiffened by the shape-stabilizable material and / or dimensionally stabilized container side wall with at least one flexible element, such as a flexible container side wall connected, for example, sewn, glued, welded or the like.

With respect to the container, this object is achieved in that the container, which is provided for receiving a cargo, comprises a plurality of side walls, wherein at least one of the side walls is formed as a container side wall of the type described above and below. This results in a lightweight construction of the container, which also flexible, so for example, at least partially foldable, is. In addition, a good shape stabilization, for example, after an erection of the container, in particular in the filled state, guaranteed. For example, a container with a filling volume of 1000 cm ^{3 could} weigh 5 to 15 kg.

With regard to the transport goods container, this object is achieved by comprising at least a first and a second container of the type described above and below. The transport goods container is therefore on the one hand light and flexible, so at least partially foldable, and on the other hand stable, especially in the filled state. For example, a high lateral stability can be given, in particular when filled with liquid or pasty substances. Furthermore, the production of the transport goods container is simple and inexpensive, since essentially the same machines are used for the production of the first and second containers and / or similar work steps take place.

Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the respective subclaims. Relationships used here point to the further development of the subject-matter of the independent claim by the features of the respective company. teranspruches out; they should not be construed as a waiver of obtaining independent, objective protection for the feature combinations of the dependent claims. Furthermore, with a view to an interpretation of the claims in a closer specification of a feature in a subordinate claim, it is to be assumed that such a restriction does not exist in the respective preceding claims.

In a preferred embodiment of the container side wall, at least one of the boundary surfaces is at least partially made of a fabric. This ensures high flexibility and low weight. In addition, a good force absorption and force distribution over the tissue is ensured.

Particularly preferred as the fabric, a ribbon fabric, a thread fabric or a combination thereof is provided. In this case, the fabric can comprise, for example, monofilament fibers, multifilament fibers or a combination thereof.

Preferably, the fabric at least partially comprises a synthetic and / or natural polymer, in particular a biopolymer. In addition, the fabric may be at least partially coated with such a polymer. As a result, according to a selection of the polymer, good stability as well as e.g. achieved a resistance to solvents and also ensures a low-cost production.

In this case, the polymer can be selected from a group comprising polyolefins, polyesters, polyamides or a combination. This ensures a high weather resistance, good food compatibility or good hygiene properties. Most preferably, the polymer is polypropylene. When the natural polymer is a biopolymer, for example, a biopolymer selected from a group comprising a polyhydroxyl kanoate, polylactate or a combination thereof, good biodegradability and / or recyclability is ensured after use, for example.

Preferably, a web, a seam, a rivet, a button, an adhesive bond, a welded joint or a combination thereof acts as a connecting means. If the connecting means is a web, this may in particular be at least a ribbon, a thread, a monofilament fiber, a multifilament fiber, or a binding chain of the fabric, which ensures easy production of the container side wall.

Particularly preferably, the cavity is structured by means of a plurality of webs in communicating fields. As a result, a substantially uniform filling is ensured and thus reduces manufacturing costs and reduces costs; In addition, a uniform force absorption and power transmission is ensured due to a substantially uniform material thickness.

Further preferably, the shape-stabilizable material may comprise, for example, a granulate, a liquid, a gel, a gas, a foam or a combination thereof. This material is thus easily and inexpensively fillable in the cavity, e.g. by pouring, pouring, injecting, blowing, sucking or the like. In addition, this provides a substantially uniform fillability of the cavity and / or distributability of the moldable material in the cavity. For example, the material may include polyurethane, a resin, Betonit or the like.

The dimensionally stable material is particularly preferably a rigid polyurethane foam. This is light and dimensionally stable after solidification, which on the one hand a low weight and second, good stabilization properties. Furthermore, thus a good thermal insulation is guaranteed against both heat and cold.

Particularly preferably, the shape-stabilizable material in the cavity is at least temporarily convertible into a substantially dimensionally stable form. This can e.g. can be achieved by polymerization, by curing, solidification, fusing, gluing or the like, and may be provided for a limited time or permanently.

The shape-stabilizable material can be filled into the cavity, for example by means of a, in particular closable, filling opening. If the filling opening can be closed after the shape-stabilizable material has been introduced into the cavity, it is ensured that, when a material that slowly merges into a dimensionally stable shape is filled, it remains in the cavity until at least partial stabilization has been achieved. In addition, the closeability allows the shape-stabilizable material to be easily distributed in the cavity, e.g. by inverting, pivoting or the like.

Preferably, edges of a first boundary surface are at least partially connected to edges of a second boundary surface to form the cavity. The edges may be e.g. be connected by means of a seam, a welded joint, an adhesive bond or a combination thereof. Thus, the cavity is simple and inexpensive moldable and a tightness of the connection with respect to the dimensionally stable material is guaranteed.

Preferably, the container side wall has a rod-shaped or planar geometry and, moreover, it can also be shaped or shaped along at least one axis; This ensures a good adaptability to a form eg of transport and / or stored goods. For example, a flat container side wall as a pallet, eg for Piece goods or the like, be provided and / or can be used for example on this (or on a conventional pallet) arranged goods for lateral stabilization.

In a preferred embodiment of the container, the container comprises at least one, adjacent to at least one side wall first opening for insertion or filling of the transported goods. Additionally or alternatively, the first opening may be an integral part of the boundary surface, or the first opening may at least partially replace a side wall, in particular an upper side wall.

The container can e.g. a, at least one boundary surface adjacent, comprise a second opening for removal of the transported goods; This results in a simple removability of the cargo, e.g. by pouring out, falling out, trickling out, running out or the like. In this case, e.g. be provided that the removal opening is integrated into a bottom of the container.

If the container comprises a first opening, it may be closable, eg by means of a cover flap of flexible or non-flexible material, eg a fabric; if the container comprises a first and a second opening, the first, the second opening or both openings may be closable. In addition or alternatively, for at least one opening, an insertion or filling aid and / or a removal aid, for example a nozzle, a funnel, a chute, a projection and the like may be provided. This can at least partially consist of a flexible material, eg a fabric. For example, if a neck or a funnel made of a flexible material is present, this can be closed, for example, by means of a clip, a clip, a binder, a band or the like. In addition or alternatively, the removal opening can be produced, for example, for removal, for example by means of a cut. For example, on the surface of one of the containers nerseitenwände be provided a preferred place and this can be marked for better findability, eg marked in color, be.

Particularly preferably, the first and second openings are arranged opposite to each other, so that a simple and substantially complete insertion and / or filling and removal of the transported material is ensured. For example, the first and second openings may be associated with upper and lower side walls.

Preferably, the container comprises at least one suspension; this makes a simple transport, e.g. hanging, guaranteed. For example, the container comprises one, two, four or more suspensions. The suspension may e.g. be connectable with at least one boundary surface or a junction of at least two boundary surfaces. Additionally or alternatively, the suspension can be an integral part of the boundary surface and / or the connection point. This ensures a safe, simple and inexpensive realization of the suspension.

Particularly preferably, the container is designed as at least partially foldable, in particular in a substantially empty state. This ensures space-saving and inexpensive storage and transport of the container.

In a preferred embodiment of the transport goods container according to claim 27, an outer contour of the first container is adapted to an inner contour of the second container such that the second container can receive or receive the first container. In particular, the first container may be provided for receiving the cargo. The first container is referred to here and below as the inner part and the second container as the outer part. Particularly preferably, at least one container side wall of the first container and / or of the second container is effective for stabilizing the shape of the transport goods container. This results in a material savings and a simplification of the production and thus a cost reduction.

Particularly preferred two opposite container side walls of the first container and two opposite container side walls of the second container for stabilizing the shape of the transport goods be effective, the opposite container side walls of the first container relative to the opposite container side walls of the second container are arranged such that there are a total of four shape-stabilizing container side walls ,

In this case, the transport container can at least one support, e.g. metal, wood, plastic, biopolymer composite or the like for stabilization. The at least one support may be, for example, tubular, rod-shaped, flat or the like, e.g. an angular element, be; additionally or alternatively, the support may e.g. be arranged in at least one corner region.

In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the container side wall according to the invention has at least one over the entire height of the side wall extending and acting as a hinge movement strip which is free of stabilizable material and whose width corresponds at least to the length of the connecting means. Advantageously in this case both boundary surfaces at least partially made of a tissue and the tissues are impermeable to each other in the region of the moving strip over the entire height of the container side wall for the dimensionally stable material. The connection takes place in particular by sewing or interweaving the two fabrics together. When filling the container side wall with the shape-stabilizable material, the movement strip thus formed remains free of form-stabilizable material and thus retains its flexibility, so that the movement strip can work as a hinge. This ensures that the container side wall is also foldable in filled with shape stabilizable material state. Advantageously, the container side wall at two opposite ends in each case a movement strip and a third movement strip between the two first movement strips. Again, the strips are each free of dimensionally stable material and the width thereof corresponds at least to the length of the connecting means. By this embodiment, an even better foldability of the container side wall is achieved when it is connected to further container side walls to a container. In a particularly preferred embodiment of a container according to the invention, at least two opposing container side walls are equipped with one or more embodiments of the aforementioned movement strip or strips. Advantageously, the container has a substantially cubic shape with four container side walls according to the invention, of which at least two opposing container side walls each have three movement strips of the aforementioned type. As a result, a space-saving folding of the container in the deflated state is possible. The bottom and the ceiling of the container are preferably formed by a fabric, each with a closable opening for filling or emptying of the container.

In the following, elements with the same effect - if appropriate - will be given a uniform reference number.

Fig. 1 shows a schematic perspective view of a cross section through a container side wall 10 according to the invention with two parallel boundary surfaces 12a, 12b, e.g. of a fabric 14a, 14b joined together at the edges 16, e.g. sewn, are and so limit a cavity 18. In addition or alternatively, the edges 16 can be glued, welded or connected to each other in a similar manner. In the area of the cavity 18, the two boundary surfaces 12a, 12b are connected by a plurality of connection means 20, here webs 22a, 22b, 22c, 22d, e.g. made of polypropylene tapes, interconnected so that the boundary surfaces 12a, 12b do not substantially exceed a distance determined by a length of the webs 22a, 22b, 22c, 22d. As a result, communicating fields 24 are formed whose shape is determined by an arrangement of the webs 22a, 22b, 22c, 22d in the cavity 18. This structure is referred to here and below as a double spacer fabric 25. Additionally or alternatively, the connecting means may comprise multifilament fibers or the like.

In addition, the cavity 18 can be filled with a shape-stabilizable material 18a, for example a polyurethane foam, in particular a rigid polyurethane foam. In this case, the shape-stabilizable material 18a distributed in the fields 24, since they are in contact (communicating fields), so that after solidification of the foam results in a substantially rigid container side wall 10 with the ability to absorb power and distribution. A shape of the container side wall 10, for example a flat shape, results in Principle of a shape of the cavity 18, the distance between the boundary surfaces 12a, 12b and a filling volume. The lengths of the webs 22 determine a thickness of the container side wall 10, but in areas not connected by webs 22a, 22b, 22c, 22d, cushion-like bulges of the fields 24 may occur within certain limits. The filling of the cavity 18 with the shape-stabilized material 18a takes place for example via an at least partially open edge 16, or a filling opening 26. In the case of a filling opening 26, this can be closed after filling or solidifying the dimensionally stable material 18a, eg tied, sewn or like that.

FIG. 2 shows, schematically simplified, a cross-section through a further embodiment of a container side wall 10, which essentially corresponds to that described in FIG. 1. However, the webs 22a, 22b of the double pitch fabric 25 are here implemented as double webs 26a, 26b, 26c, 26d, e.g. as a binding chain 28a, 28b.

FIG. 3 shows a schematic perspective view of a further embodiment of a container side wall 10, which substantially corresponds to that described in FIG. 1. In this case, due to an arrangement of webs 22a-22h after filling the cavity 18, for example with polyurethane foam, convex support elements 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d, 30e project beyond an area of the container side wall 10 at least up and down. In this case, support elements 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d, 30e are advantageously located at least in corner regions 32a, 32b, 32c, 32d of container side wall 10. In addition, support elements 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d, 30e may be located in a middle region of container side wall 10. 4 schematically shows, in simplified form, a further embodiment of a container side wall 10, which essentially corresponds to that described in FIG. 3, but comprises support elements 30f, 30g along two opposite edges 16.

Alternatively, as shown in Figure 6c, the annular confining surface 40a may include a joint 44a. Fig. 7 shows a semi-transparent, schematic representation of another embodiment of a container 38 according to the invention with a rectangular cross-section. A side wall 40a-40d, here a lower side wall 46, corresponds in its construction to the container side wall 10 shown in FIG. 5, wherein it is connected to the adjacent container side walls. An upper side wall 48 includes a first opening 50 with a Einfüllhilfe 52, here a flexible, open-top filler neck 54, in which case the first and second openings 50, 34 are positioned substantially opposite one another. The filling aid 52 may be optional, or the first opening 50 may replace the upper side wall 48. In this case, the rectangular cross section may be, for example, square.

Two opposite side walls 40b, 40d are container side walls 10a, 10b of the type described herein and two opposite side walls 40a, 40c are flexible. In addition, two further container side walls 10c, 10d at one edge 16b, 16c are movably connected to the connection points 44b, 44d and thus foldable as by means of a hinge, resulting in a foldability of the container 38. Additionally or alternatively, upper, lower or both side walls 48, 46 (shown in FIG. 7) may also be container side walls 10 and movably connected to the connection points 44b, 44d, and thus be foldable or foldable.

This can e.g. tubular, rod-shaped or flat and made of metal, wood, plastic, biopolymer, composite material, e.g. a polyurethane-foamed rod-shaped element, or the like.

10a shows a semi-transparent, schematic representation of an outer part 58 of a further embodiment of a container 38 according to the invention. This corresponds essentially to the container 38 shown in FIG. 7, but two opposite side walls 40b, 40d are described as container side walls 10a, 10b as described above executed and two opposite side walls 40a, 40c are flexible.

For example, in this second container 60a (see Fig. 10a and / or 10b) can be used. In this case, two opposite side walls 40b, 40d container side walls 10a, 10b and two opposite side walls 40a, 40c are flexible. The first and second openings 50, 34 are connected to a filler neck 54 and a withdrawal nozzle 61, respectively. Preferably, the inner portion 60 has an outer edge length which is less than a corresponding inner edge length of the outer portion 58 (shown in FIGS. 6a and 6b) so that the inner portion 60 can be inserted into the outer portion 58 and thus both portions 60, 58 result in a transport container 62. In this case, the side walls of the inner and outer parts 60, 58 (see FIGS. 10 a, 10 b) can at least partially contact one another, for example in a form-fitting, non-positive or positive and non-positive manner.
