- a support over the previously described stacking edges paragraphs 24, as has been described for the basic container 2 does not take place here. Nevertheless, this also creates a relatively space-saving stacking possibility, without requiring too much space is needed.
- the corresponding medium or agent is already introduced or inserted in the receiving space formed by the additional container 3, since the originality assurance has already been provided by the arranged enveloping element 29 or the outer part 30.
- a simple production of the container parts is achieved when at least one of the two container parts, namely the basic container 2 and / or the additional container 3, is thermoformed from a thermoformable film. But it would also be possible to produce at least one of the container parts by an injection molding process. If, for example, the base container 2 is thermoformed from a film or a foil composite, the additional container 3 can be produced by injection molding. In the case of injection molding, it is also possible to produce larger wall thicknesses or wall thicknesses of the container jacket 9 or the container bottom 10 that are different from one another in a simple way. As a result, in turn, the carrying capacity in the direction of the longitudinal axis 6 is increased despite the smaller cross-sectional dimension in the region of the container jacket 9 compared to the base container 2. In combination of the container shell 4 of the base container 2 with the smaller wall thickness and the enveloping element 29th or the outer part 30 and the stably designed additional container 3, an increased stability of the entire container combination 1 over previous embodiments is achieved.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Behälterkombination zu schaffen, die durch ihre Gestaltung und die Art ihrer Verwendbarkeit z.B. mittels des in dem Zusatzbehälter eingeschlossenen Produktes verkaufsfördernd wirkt und dabei eine ausreichende Stabilität aufweist.The present invention has for its object to provide a combination of containers, which acts by their design and the nature of their usability, for example by means of the enclosed in the additional container product promotion and thereby has sufficient stability.
Diese Aufgabe der Erfindung wird dadurch gelöst, dass der Grundbehälter jeweils an seinen voneinander distanzierten Enden Haltemittel aufweist und diese den Behältermantel nach außen überragen, wobei ein erstes Haltemittel im Bereich des Behälterbodens durch eine zumindest bereichsweise über den Umfang angeordnete erste Rasterhebung gebildet ist, und dass der Zusatzbehälter im Überlappungsbereich eine gegengleich zur ersten Rasterhebung ausgebildete erste Rastausnehmung aufweist und diese auf der vom Grundbehälter abgewendet Seite eine zweite Rasterhebung ausbildet und dass sich das mantelartige Außenteil in Richtung der Längsachse zwischen der zweiten Rasterhebung des Zusatzbehälters und dem am Grundbehälter auf der vom Bodenbereich abgewendeten Seite angeordneten zweiten Haltemittel erstreckt und sich sowohl an der zweiten Rasterhebung des Zusatzbehälters als auch am zweiten Haltemittel des Grundbehälters abstützt.This object of the invention is achieved in that the basic container each has at its spaced apart holding means and these project beyond the container shell to the outside, wherein a first holding means is formed in the container bottom by an at least partially over the circumference arranged first grid elevation, and that the additional container in the overlapping region has a first catch recess formed opposite the first grid elevation and forms a second grid elevation on the side remote from the base receptacle and the mantle-like outer part is deflected in the direction of the longitudinal axis between the second grid elevation of the additional receptacle and the base receptacle on the floor area Side arranged second holding means extends and is supported both on the second grid elevation of the additional container and on the second holding means of the base container.
Der sich durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 ergebende Vorteil liegt darin, dass bei sich in der Kupplungsstellung befindlichem Grundbehälter und Zusatzbehälter ein ungehinderter Einblick in den dort ausgebildeten Aufnahmeraum ermöglicht wird. Dies wird dann erreicht, wenn der Zusatzbehälter aus einem durchscheinenden bzw. transparenten Werkstoff in unterschiedlichster Herstellungsmethode gebildet ist. Dabei bildet der Zusatzbehälter ein weiteres Haltemittel für das Hüllelement aus, wodurch für das Hüllelement eine eindeutige Positionierung zwischen dem weiteren Haltemittel des Zusatzbehälters und dem Haltemittel am Grundbehälter geschaffen wird. Zusätzlich wird durch diese Umhüllung mit dem Hüllelement eine Sicherung gegen unberechtigte Abnahme des Zusatzbehälters vom Grundbehälter erreicht, ohne dass die gesamte Behälterkombination vom Hüllelement abgedeckt ist. Durch die bekannte Abdeckung mit der Schrumpffolie musste bei der Bedruckung und Positionierung derselben großer Aufwand getrieben werden, um einerseits einen sicheren Halt an den Behälterteilen und andererseits den freien Blick in den Zusatzbehälter nicht zu behindern. Weiters wird damit aber auch die Möglichkeit eröffnet, z.B. bei gleich bleibender Geometrie des Grundbehälters die Abmessungen des Zusatzbehälters im Bereich seines Aufnahmeraums zu variieren, da das Hüllelement und seine Positionierung zwischen den dafür vorgesehenen Haltemitteln unverändert beibehalten werden kann. Damit können Zusatzbehälter mit unterschiedlichen Höhen und damit verbundenem unterschiedlichen Aufnahmevolumen bei jeweils gleich gestaltetem Überlappungsbereich an den Grundbehälter angekuppelt werden, ohne dass eine Änderung des Hüllelements notwendig ist. Überdies wird auch noch die Stabilität des Grundbehälter im Bereich seines Behältermantels erhöht, wodurch mit sehr geringen Wandstärken in diesem Abschnitt das Auslangen gefunden werden kann und so wiederum Rohstoffe eingespart werden können.The resulting from the features of claim 1 advantage is that when located in the coupling position basic container and additional container unhindered insight into the receiving space formed there is possible. This is achieved when the additional container is formed from a translucent or transparent material in a variety of manufacturing methods. In this case, the additional container forms a further holding means for the enveloping element, whereby a clear positioning between the further holding means of the additional container and the holding means is provided on the base container for the enveloping element. In addition, a protection against unauthorized removal of the additional container from the basic container is achieved by this enclosure with the enveloping element, without the entire container combination is covered by the enveloping element. Due to the known cover with the shrink film had to be driven in the printing and positioning the same great effort, on the one hand not to hinder a secure grip on the container parts and the other hand, the free view of the additional container. Furthermore, this also opens up the possibility, for example, to vary the dimensions of the additional container in the region of its receiving space while maintaining the geometry of the base container, since the enveloping element and its positioning between the holding means provided for this purpose can be maintained unchanged. In order for additional containers with different heights and associated different receiving volume can be coupled with each identically designed overlap area to the basic container without a change of the Hüllelements is necessary. Moreover, the stability of the basic container in the region of its container shell is also increased, resulting in very small wall thicknesses in this section The Auslangen can be found and so in turn raw materials can be saved.
Vorteilhaft ist auch eine Ausführungsform nach Anspruch 2, da dadurch eine durchgehende satte Anlage über den gesamten Umfang der beiden miteinander gekuppelten Behälterteile geschaffen werden kann und so bei entsprechender Vorspannung ein dichter sowie gegebenenfalls auch hygienischer Abschluss des Aufnahmeraums des Zusatzbehälters bis vor der Abnahme desselben vom Grundbehälter erzielbar ist.Also advantageous is an embodiment according to
Vorteilhaft ist weiters eine Ausbildung nach Anspruch 3, da dadurch im Bereich des offenen Endes nicht nur die Möglichkeit eines hygienisch dichten Verschlusses des Innenraumes des Grundbehälters geschaffen wird, sondern auch die Kraftübertragung vom Siegelflansch auf das mantelartige Hüllelement verbessert wird.It is also advantageous embodiment according to
Durch die Ausbildung nach Anspruch 4 ist es möglich, dass die Entformung des Grundbehälters erleichtert und in weiterer Folge die Stapelbarkeit verbessert wird.Due to the construction according to claim 4, it is possible that the demolding of the base container facilitates and subsequently the stackability is improved.
Nach einer anderen Ausführungsvariante gemäß Anspruch 5 oder 6 wird eine vordefinierte Stapelhöhe von ineinander gestapelten Grundbehältern erzielt, ohne dass diese dabei im Bereich ihres Behältermantels aneinander anliegen, da ansonst das Entstapeln auf mechanischem Wege nur sehr schwierig bzw. nur mit hohem Aufwand gesichert durchgeführt werden kann. Darüber hinaus wird aber auch eine bessere Kraftübertragung, ausgehend vom mantelartigen Hüllelement hin auf die Haltemittel, erzielt. Weiters wird dadurch auch eine minimale axiale Stauchung des Grundbehälters ermöglicht, sodass die beiden in Richtung der Längsachse voneinander distanzierten Endbereiche des Hüllelements zur Kraftübertragung an den dafür vorgesehenen Haltemitteln bzw. Rasterhebungen sicher zur Anlage kommen.According to another embodiment variant according to
Vorteilhaft ist auch eine Weiterbildung nach Anspruch 7, da dadurch die Tragfähigkeit der Behälterkombination in Richtung der Längsachse gesehen, zusätzlich erhöht werden kann.Also advantageous is a development according to
Bei der Ausgestaltung nach Anspruch 8 oder 9 ist von Vorteil, dass dadurch eine flanschartig aneinander liegende Abstützfläche geschaffen wird und so auch in diesem Bereich höhere Lasten übertragen werden können, ohne dass dabei eine Beschädigung des Grundbehälters auftritt.In the embodiment according to claim 8 or 9 is advantageous that thereby a flange abutting support surface is created and thus higher loads can be transmitted in this area, without causing damage to the base tank occurs.
Durch die Weiterbildung nach Anspruch 10 wird erreicht, dass so Werkstoffressourcen eingespart werden können und nur auf die notwendige Dichtheit des Innenraums des Grundbehälters Bedacht genommen werden muss, da die Ableitung der Druckkraft auf das äußere Hüllelement übertragen wird.Through the development according to
Durch die Ausbildung nach Anspruch 11 oder 12 kann eine ausreichende Festigkeit des Zusatzbehälters mit einem maximalen Aufnahmevolumen erzielt werden. Weiters kann dadurch aber eine nahezu knickungsfreie Lastübertragung auf die Behälterwand des Zusatzbehälters erzielt werden. Darüber hinaus wird aber auch eine ausreichende Standfläche des Zusatzbehälters geschaffen.By the construction according to
Vorteilhaft ist auch eine Ausbildung nach Anspruch 13, da dadurch der Fügevorgang zwischen den beiden Behälterteilen erleichtert werden kann, ohne dass dabei die Kupplungs- bzw. Klemmwirkung zwischen den beiden miteinander in Eingriff stehenden Behälterteilen nachteilig beeinflusst wird.Also advantageous is an embodiment according to
Gemäß einer Ausbildung, wie im Anspruch 14 oder 15 beschrieben, kann die Gestaltungsmöglichkeit der gesamten Behälterkombination wesentlich erhöht werden, wobei je nach Wahl des Werkstoffes für das Außenteil unterschiedlich hohe Stapelkräfte von der gesamten Behälterkombination in Richtung der Längsachse gesehen übertragen werden können. Damit ist aber auch die Behälterkombination an unterschiedliche Einsatzbedienungen anpassbar. Weiters kann damit auch die Qualität des Druckbildes am Hüllelement verbessert werden, da der Druckvorgang in einer ebenen Fläche durchgeführt werden kann.According to one embodiment, as described in
Dabei erweist sich eine Ausgestaltung nach Anspruch 16 vorteilhaft, da durch die bewusst durchzuführende Ablösung des mantelartigen Außenteils ein gesicherter Originalitätshinweis geschaffen wird. Darüber hinaus wird das Auftrennen des Hüllelements an einer dafür vorbestimmten wesentlich erleichtert.In this case, an embodiment according to claim 16 proves advantageous, since a secure originality reference is created by the deliberately carried out detachment of the shell-like outer part. In addition, the separation of the Hüllelements is facilitated at a predetermined for much easier.
Schließlich ist aber auch eine Ausbildung wie im Anspruch 17 beschrieben möglich, da dadurch kostengünstig in hohen Stückzahlen herstellbare Behälterteile geschaffen werden können.Finally, however, an embodiment as described in
Die Erfindung wird im nachfolgenden anhand der in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert.The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings.

Der Grundbehälter 2 weist seinerseits einen Behältermantel 4, einen Behälterboden 5, sowie in Richtung einer Längsachse 6 voneinander distanzierte Enden 7, 8 auf. Bei dem hier dargestellten Grundbehälter 2 handelt es sich um einen bevorzugt tiefgezogenen, becherförmigen Aufnahmeteil, wobei das erste Ende 7 eine Aufnahmeöffnung aufweist und das weitere Ende 8 durch den Behälterboden 5 in bekannter Weise verschlossen ist. Der Behältermantel 4 wird üblicherweise, ausgehend von dem hier offenen Ende 7 hin in Richtung auf das weitere Ende 8 bzw. den Behälterboden 5 konisch verjüngend ausgebildet. Die Querschnittsform des Grundbehälters 2 kann frei nach dem bekannten Stand der Technik, wie beispielsweise rund, quadratisch, rechteckig, mehreckig, oval oder ähnlich ausgebildet sein.The
Der Zusatzbehälter 3 weist seinerseits ebenfalls einen Behältermantel 9, einen Behälterboden 10, sowie in Richtung der Längsachse 6 voneinander distanzierte Ende 11, 12 auf. Der Zusatzbehälter 3 ist auch becherförmig ausgebildet und in seinem Querschnitt an den des Grundbehälters angepasst, wobei das Ende 11 ist ebenfalls offen ausgebildet ist.The
Der Zusatzbehälter 3 übergreift mit seinem dem Grundbehälter 2 zugewendeten und hier offen ausgebildeten Ende 11 in einem Überlappungsbereich 13 das Ende 8 mit dem Behälterboden 5 des Grundbehälters 2 in Richtung seines Behältermantels 4. Durch dieses Übergreifen des Behältermantels 9 des Zusatzbehälters 3 wird bei entsprechender, gegenseitiger Ausbildung der miteinander in Eingriff stehenden Abschnitte eine Kupplungsvorrichtung zwischen diesen beiden Behälterteilen geschaffen, welche nachfolgend noch näher beschrieben wird.The
Der Grundbehälter 2 weist jeweils an seinen voneinander distanzierten Enden 7, 8 Haltemittel 14, 15, welche den Behältermantel 4 nach außen, also auf die von der Längsachse 6 abgewandten Seite, überragen. Das erste Haltemittel 14 ist im Bereich des Behälterbodens 5 vorgesehen und durch eine zumindest bereichsweise über den Umfang angeordnete erste Rasterhebung 16 gebildet. Das am Grundbehälter 2 ausgebildete erste Haltemittel 14 bzw. die erste Rasterhebung 16 kann dabei durch eine über den Umfang durchlaufend ausgebildete Schulter 17 gebildet sein. Das am Grundbehälter 2 ausgebildet zweite Haltemittel 15 kann in bekannter Weise durch einen über den Umfang durchlaufend ausgebildeten Siegelflansch 18 bzw. Siegelrand gebildet sein. An diesem Siegelflansch 18 kann nach dem Befüllen des Innenraums des Grundbehälters 2 ein Verschlusselement aufgesiegelt werden, um so einen hygienischen dichten Abschluss gegenüber den äußeren Umweltbedingungen zu schaffen, welches jedoch nicht dargestellt ist.The
Der Behältermantel 4 des Grundbehälters 2 umfasst, ausgehend vom zweiten Haltemittel 15 bzw. dem hier offen ausgebildeten Ende 7, hin zum ersten Haltemittel 14 im Bereich des Behälterbodens 5 einen sich konisch verjüngend ausgebildeten Wandteil 19, welcher zur Längsachse 6 einen ersten Neigungswinkel 20 einschließt. Weiters umfasst der Behältermantel 4 des Grundbehälters 2 einen weiteren Wandteil 21, der ausgehend vom ersten Haltemittel 14 im Bereich des Behälterbodens 5 einen in einen Innenraum 22 vorspringenden Hinterzug 23 sowie einen den Hinterzug 23 mit dem ersten Wandteil 19 verbindenden Absatz 24 aufweist. Dieser Absatz 24 bildet in bekannter Weise eine Stapelkante aus, wobei bei mehreren übereinander angeordneten Grundbehältern 2 die durch die Rasterhebung 16 gebildete Schulter 17 des eingesteckten Bechers sich an dieser abstützt und so ein ineinander Verklemmen von übereinander angeordneten Grundbehältern 2 vermieden wird. Dabei ist bevorzugt der Hinterzug 23 sowie der Absatz 24 über den Umfang des Grundbehälters 2 durchlaufend ausgebildet.The container shell 4 of the
Der Zusatzbehälter 3 weist seinerseits im Überlappungsbereich 13 eine gegengleich zur ersten Rasterhebung 16 des Grundbehälters 2 ausgebildete erste Rastausnehmung 25 auf. Diese wiederum bildet aufgrund der geringen Wandstärke des Behältermantels 9 auf der vom Grundbehälter 2 abgewendeten Seite eine zweite Rasterhebung 26 aus. Weiters ist bevorzugt der Behältermantel 9 des Zusatzbehälters 2 im Überlappungsbereich 13 an den den Hinterzug 23 bildenden weiteren Wandteil 21 des Grundbehälters 2 zumindest bereichsweise anliegend ausgebildet. Zur besseren Abstützung und Kraftübertragung von auf den Siegelflansch 18 in Richtung der Längsachse 6 gerichteten Axialkräften ist es vorteilhaft, wenn am Behältermantel 9 des Zusatzbehälters 2 an dem dem Grundbehälter 2 zugewendeten offenen Ende 11, ein den Behältermantel 9 nach außen überragender Stützflansch 27 ausgebildet bzw. vorgesehen ist. Die Geometrie des Stützflansches 27 kann dabei so gewählt sein, dass dieser im gekuppelten Zustand der beiden Behälterteile, an dem durch den weiteren Wandteil 21 des Grundbehälters 2 gebildeten Absatz 24 anliegend ausgebildet ist. Der Absatz 24 sowie der Stützflansch 27 sind in etwa in senkrechter Richtung bezüglich der Längsachse 6 ausgerichtet. Durch die abgewinkelte Ausbildung des Stützflansches 27 werden scharfkantige Stoßränder vermieden und dadurch eine günstigere Krafteinleitung bzw. Kraftübertragung zwischen den Behälterteilen erzielt.The

Das mantelartige Außenteil 30 kann aus einem Papier- und/oder Kartonmaterial bzw. aber auch aus einer Kunststofffolie gebildet sowie auf der Außen- und/oder Innenseite bedruckt sein. Zur Herstellung des mantelartigen Außenteils 30 kann ein Zuschnitt zu einem Mantel gewickelt werden. Anschließend werden die einander zugewendeten Endbereiche miteinander verklebt. Dieses rohrförmige Außenteil 30 wird dann an den übereinander angeordneten und miteinander gekuppelten Behälterteilen zwischen den Haltemitteln, insbesondere dem Siegelflansch 18 und der weiteren Rasterhebung 26 montiert. Dies kann entweder durch Überschieben des geschlossenen Außenteils 30 oder durch Umwickeln der Behälterteile mit dem Außenteil 30 erfolgen. Beim Umwickeln wird die Haftverbindung zwischen den einander zugewendeten Endbereichen des Außenteils 30 unmittelbar bei diesem Vorgang hergestellt. Wesentlich dabei ist, dass sich das Außenteil an den dafür vorgesehenen Haltemitteln abstützt.The shell-like
Durch das Anbringen des am Behältermantel 4 des Grundbehälters 2 verstärkenden Hüllelements 29 kann zumindest der erste Wandteil 19 des Behältermantels 4 des Grundbehälters 2 eine geringere Wandstärke bezüglich einer Wandstärke des Behältermantels 9 des Zusatzbehälters 3 aufweisen. In diesem Fall dient der Behältermantel 4 des Grundbehälters 2 zur flüssigkeits- bzw. gasdichten Bevorratung des im Innenraum 22 eingebrachten Speiseproduktes, wobei das Hüllelement 29 die Trag- bzw. Stützfunktion für den Grundbehälter 2 ausbildet.By attaching to the container shell 4 of the
Der Überlappungsbereich 13 zwischen dem Grundbehälter 2 und dem Zusatzbehälter 3 bildet eine Art Kupplungsvorrichtung zwischen diesen beiden Behälterteilen aus. Das mantelartige Hüllelement 29 umschlingt nicht nur den Grundbehälter 2, sondern auch den Zusatzbehälter 3 im Bereich jenes Wandteils, der ausgehend von der zweiten Rasterhebung 26 hin zum offenen Ende 11 erstreckenden Seite angeordnet ist. Durch dieses Umschlingen wird eine Art Originalitätssicherung erzielt, durch welche sofort erkennbar ist, ob aus dem Zusatzbehälter 3 bevorratete Medien bzw. Artikel, wie beispielsweise Sammelbilder, Geschenkartikel, Spielsachen bzw. Spiele für Kinder, Rezepte, insbesondere Zubereitungsrezepte, oder auch Karten für Gewinnspiele, Zubehörartikel, Essbesteck oder Zusatzstoffe für die im Innenraum 22 des Grundbehälters 2 bevorratete Speisen oder dergleichen unverändert darin enthalten sind.The overlapping
Eine Abnahme des Zusatzbehälters 3 vom Grundbehälter 2 ist dann möglich, wenn das Hüllelement 29 vom Benutzer wissentlich entfernt wird. Hierbei kann das mantelartige Außenteil 30 bzw. das Hüllelement 29 einen in bekannter Weise ausgebildeten Solltrennstreifen aufweisen, wie dieser beispielsweise in der
Um einen ausreichenden Lichtschutz des im Innenraum 22 des Grundbehälters 2 bevorrateten Speiseproduktes zu erhalten, wird bevorzugt ein opaker Werkstoff zur Bildung desselben gewählt. Ein zusätzlicher Licht- und UV-Schutz wird auch noch durch das mantelartige Hüllelement 29 bzw. Außenteil 30 erzielt. Um einen Einblick in den Aufnahmeraum des Zusatzbehälters 3 zu gewährleisten, wird dieser bevorzugt aus einem durchsichtigen bzw. oder aber auch vollständig transparenten Werkstoff gebildet, um so den Inhalt bei erster Betrachtung sofort und klar ersehen zu können.In order to obtain a sufficient light protection of the stored in the
In der
Eine einfache Herstellung der Behälterteile wird dann erreicht, wenn zumindest einer der beiden Behälterteile, nämlich der Grundbehälter 2 und/oder der Zusatzbehälter 3, aus einer thermisch verformbaren Folie tiefgezogen ist. Es wäre aber auch möglich, zumindest einen der Behälterteile durch einen Spritzgießvorgang herzustellen. Wird beispielsweise der Grundbehälter 2 aus einer Folie bzw. einem Folienverbund tiefgezogen, kann der Zusatzbehälter 3 durch Spritzgießen hergestellt werden. Beim Spritzgießen können auch auf einfachem Wege größere Wandstärken oder aber auch zueinander unterschiedliche Wandstärken des Behältermantels 9 bzw. des Behälterbodens 10 hergestellt werden. Dadurch wird wiederum die Tragfähigkeit in Richtung der Längsachse 6 trotz der gegenüber dem Grundbehälter 2 geringeren Querschnittsabmessung im Bereich des Behältermantels 9 erhöht. In Kombination des Behältermantels 4 des Grundbehälters 2 mit der geringeren Wandstärke und dem Hüllelement 29 bzw. dem Außenteil 30 und dem stabil ausgebildeten Zusatzbehälter 3 wird eine erhöhte Stabilität der gesamten Behälterkombination 1 gegenüber bisherigen Ausführungsformen erzielt.A simple production of the container parts is achieved when at least one of the two container parts, namely the
