Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging for Two-component products with a first upper container and a second lower container, each with a lid have, the first upper container for formation a storage and transport unit on the lid of the second lower container arranged and detachable on this is fixed.
  • Such packaging for two-component products are known.
  • the first larger one is used for this type of packaging Containers, for example, to hold one component of a paint, while in the second lower smaller container an additional component, for example a low viscosity hardener that fill in the larger container is housed.
  • a packaging for two-component products with the features the preamble of claim 1 is on the market. This is the first in this known packaging large containers in the lid of the smaller second container locked without further securing element. With a such packaging has had good results however, the attachment between the two containers, the heavy loads during the storage and transport phase is still in need of improvement.
  • the present invention has for its object a To create packaging of the specified type, which can be found at a particularly good handling by a special good and secure fixation between the containers.
  • the lid of the second lower container at a distance from its edge that overlaps a curl of the second lower container, has a bead that is higher than the edge and concentric to it, on which the bottom of the first upper container is supported, the lower edge area of the first upper container has a radially recessed area and an adjoining lower, radially projecting edge with an approximately horizontal top, the lower edge of the first upper container engages at least partially in the annular groove formed between the edge and the bead of the lid of the second lower container, such that the upper sides of both edges are arranged at approximately the same height, for fastening both containers to one another a clamping ring with its wider upper flange comes into contact with the upper sides of both edges and the lid of the second lower container has a central opening with a closure, the maximum height of which in the state closing the opening is less than the height of the lid bead.
  • the first upper are larger Container containing, for example, a paint
  • the second lower smaller container for example has a hardener for this paint, connected to each other via a tension ring according to the invention with its wider upper flange on the Tops of the edge of the lid of the lower container and of the lower edge of the upper container.
  • the clamping ring acts directly in the tensioned state Opposing axial forces trying to separate both containers to separate.
  • the tension ring therefore bumps with his upper flange not only perpendicular to the wall of the upper container, but also lies, as mentioned, on the both edges so that a separation of the upper container is counteracted immediately by the lower container while in the prior art mentioned at the beginning of the clamping ring only applies a radially directed force so that the Relative danger of possible axial movements of the containers to each other when appropriate forces occur. According to the invention, this makes it particularly safe Fixation of both containers to each other reached.
  • the lid of the second lower container is on the lid of the second lower container at a distance from the edge of the lid and concentric a bead higher than the edge provided the top of which is the bearing for receiving the upper Container forms.
  • the upper container is thus supported starting on the top of the bead that is so tall is that a central in the lid of the second lower container Opening with associated closure may be provided can, the maximum height of the closure in the opening closing condition is less than the height of the cover bead.
  • the lower smaller container is therefore despite the Placement of the upper larger container on its lid provided with an opening with a closure so that the smaller Container into the larger container in a convenient way can be emptied. For this, the attachment between the two containers, i.e.
  • the tension ring relaxes, the upper container removed from the lower container and the Closure from that provided in the lid of the lower container Opening opened, after which the smaller container in the larger container emptied after opening its lid can be.
  • the invention can thus trained packaging for two-component products in addition to a particularly good fixation of the container, a more convenient one and easier handling than in the prior art achieve.
  • a clamping ring is used Attach the two containers to each other.
  • This The clamping ring has two functions: on the one hand, it serves the the aforementioned fastening of the containers to one another, on the other hand, it is used to attach the cover to the second lower container, so that in the transport and storage phase the packaging according to the invention in addition to a prevention the separation of the two containers from each other also ensured is that the lid is not from the lower container can solve.
  • the clamping ring engages with its lower one Flange the top edge (the curl) of the bottom Container, so that a safe system in this area the clamping ring is guaranteed, especially a Bearing the flange of the clamping ring against a radial surface of the lower container is reached.
  • the upper container can also be used to secure its lid be provided with a clamping ring on the container.
  • the lid of the second lower container preferably has an approximately ⁇ -shaped edge.
  • an edge closes the also preferably ⁇ -shaped Bead radially inwards, then in the radial direction further inward is an essentially flat lid base to the central opening with a lock follows.
  • a sealing ring which for a tight seal between the top edge (the curling) of the second lower container and the lid provides.
  • the clamping ring used according to the invention can be of a conventional type Be of a construction type and must be detailed at this point not be described.
  • Such clamping rings are known to the person skilled in the art known and are generally C-shaped with a upper flange, a lower flange and a web formed, with the used according to the invention Clamping ring the upper flange is longer than that lower flange, as it recesses into the radially recessed Area of the lower wall area of the first upper Container extends and with the top of the radially protruding bottom of the upper container in plant occurs.
  • the first upper container can also be a suitable handle own, at opposite points of the container wall is attached. In this way, the Transport the upper container easily.
  • Both containers are made of tinplate, namely both actual container as well as the container lid.
  • the upper container preferably has one on its hull or several beads. It can be, for example around an upper stacking bead and / or one or more reinforcing beads act. Instead of reinforcing beads Corresponding ring grooves (grooves) can also be arranged in the fuselage his.
  • the two containers shown in Figures 1 and 2 form a packaging for Two-component products, for example in the upper A paint container and the corresponding one in the lower container Hardener for the paint is included.
  • the Both containers are connected using a clamping ring, this clamping ring at the same time the lid on lower container fixed.
  • Another clamping ring is used for Fix the lid of the upper container.
  • FIG. 1 shows a first upper container 1 with a slightly conical hull 3 and inserted into the container Lid 10.
  • a Carrying handle 2 is provided, which is attached to the fuselage in two places is.
  • the fuselage also has a stacking bead 7 and two reinforcement grooves 8.
  • the lower wall area of the container body 3 has one radially recessed area 5 and an attached to it subsequent lower radially projecting edge 6 with approximately horizontal top.
  • the container bottom 4 is opposite the bottom of the edge 6 is arranged offset upwards.
  • the associated second lower container 11 is the packaging shown in the side view in Figure 2. It is smaller than the first upper container and is approximately cylindrical Shape. At the top of the container 11 is a curl 13 provided. There is a similar one at the bottom Rolling 12.
  • the associated container lid 14 is in the Container 11 shown separate state and has a central opening 15, which can be closed via a clamping cover 20 is. Otherwise, the cover 14 of the second lower container 11 at a distance from its curling 13 of the second lower container overlapping edge 16 a higher than the edge 16 and formed concentrically to this Beading 17 on which is in the stacked state both containers the bottom 4 of the upper container 1 supported. Both the lid edge 16 and the bead 17 are approximately ⁇ -shaped, being within the edge 16 a suitable sealing ring 21 is arranged.
  • a clamping ring 18 is shown in Figure 2, the both the lid 14 on the container 11 and both containers fixed to each other.
  • the clamping ring 18 has, as in FIG. 3 shown a short lower flange 22 and a longer one upper flange 23, which are connected to one another via a web are. Otherwise, the clamping ring 18 is more conventional Design and via a suitable clamping device 19 braced.
  • Figure 3 shows a connection detail of the two containers in the superimposed Condition with tension ring attached Vertical section.
  • the lower container 11 with its Rolling 13 shown at the top. This rolling 13 is overlapped by the edge 16 of the container lid 14, wherein the sealing ring 21 arranged between them is compressed becomes.
  • an annular groove 24 is disposed inward therefrom an annular groove 24, in which in the attached state of the upper Container 1 engages the lower edge 6, and so wide that the tops of the lid rim 16 and the bottom Edge 6 of the upper container 1 is arranged approximately the same height are.
  • the bead 17 of the lid 14 is so high that the clamp closure 20 inserted into the lid opening 15 placing the upper container 1 on the lid 14 not disabled.
  • the upper container When the upper container is in place lies its bottom 4 on the top of the bead 17th on.
  • After loosening the clamping ring 18 and separating the two Containers from each other can therefore be the content of the bottom Container in a convenient way by removing the clamp 20 to be emptied into the upper container after whose cover has been removed.
