Description

Paint container

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a container for painting of the type used in wall painting and surfaces in general.

Background of the invention

The use of buckets to contain the paint and drain the brushes or rollers These cuvettes are constituted by a body resistant, usually thick plastic or sheet metal, which  you can have handles for your grip and transport and a rack Removable for draining rollers and brushes.

In this way, each time the bucket, it gets dirty with paint and must be washed conveniently before it can be used with a paint other color. When paints of different colors are used to painting the different rooms of a house or an enclosure is it is necessary to have a bucket for each paint, which increases the space needed to store and work with different buckets, the risk of the paints mixing altering its original colors and the difficulty of transporting all the material.

Storage of paint debris in these buckets often cause the paint to dry, which prevents proper cleaning of the cuvette for later reuse, so that the bucket is unusable and it is necessary replace it with a new one, with the consequent added cost.

On the other hand, when using paints of specific colors, obtained by mixing pigments or paints of different colors, it is common to save the excess paint to make subsequent adjustments or adjustments, since obtaining of an identical color is especially complicated. In these cases the excess paint is usually stored in any available container (canned cans, bottles, etc.), with the risk of deterioration of the paint due to poor conservation and confusion of the paint contained in the container with the product originally packaged in said container.

Description of the invention

The paint container of this invention presents a series of technical peculiarities that allow a use easier and cleaner of the bucket, a considerable reduction of expense incurred in the purchase of buckets and saving the paint leftover comfortably and suitable for conservation.

The container object of this invention, It comprises a main bucket and auxiliary buckets replaceable, attachable to the inner hollow of the main bucket and whose upper mouth is attachable to the upper mouth of the bucket, of so that in the position of use the replaceable cuvette covers the inner surface of the main bucket, as a cover inside. In this way the paint to be used is poured into the auxiliary cuvette positioned inside the main cuvette, without staining the main cuvette that acts as a structure for support and transport.

These auxiliary cuvettes have a thickness significantly lower than the main bucket, so its cost is also much smaller and can be used as disposable spare parts.

Given the thinnest constitution of the cuvettes auxiliary handling problems may exist when extracting or insert said auxiliary cuvettes into the main cuvette, to avoid this problem the upper mouth of the auxiliary cuvettes is  equipped with integrated side handles for handling introduction and extraction in the main bucket with all comfort and without risk of deterioration.

According to the invention, these auxiliary cuvettes they can have a closing lid, simply attachable by pressure, so that the mentioned auxiliary cuvettes can be used to store excess paint. The auxiliary tray in use, it can be removed from the main bucket to replace it with another auxiliary bucket containing the paint to be used, which allows you to use the same main bucket to position in your inside the auxiliary tray containing the paint to be used in each case, significantly reducing the cost of the material necessary.

It is planned that the auxiliary cuvettes and covers are preferably made of a lightweight material, preferably plastic, low thickness and low manufacturing cost, so They can be discarded after use.

The proper use of cuvettes auxiliary guarantees that the main tray is always clean, so it has a longer duration, without any maintenance.

The main tray has at least one side wall inclined inwards, which defines a support area where the brushes or rollers loaded with paint run off so that they do not drip during painting.
tado.

Auxiliary cuvettes, attachable in the inside the main bucket, they also have a wall inclined analogous to that of the main bucket and provided with bulging or protruding prominences to facilitate draining of Rollers or brushes These bulging prominences, for example of conical shape, allow a better draining of the brushes or rollers and do not accumulate paint, since this runs through said prominences descending down the inclined wall, to unlike other forms such as transverse ribs, the which retain the painting in an accused way.

In one embodiment, the inclined wall of the main bucket also shows some prominences in correspondence with the bulging prominences of the bucket replaceable auxiliary to reinforce them during the use of the container. This prevents the bulging prominences of the auxiliary tray are crushed during the roller draining operation and Brushes.

Description of the figures

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to facilitate the understanding of characteristics of the invention, is attached herein descriptive a set of drawings in which, for illustrative purposes and not limiting, the following has been represented:

- Figure 1 shows an exploded view in perspective of an embodiment example of the container for painting, formed by a main bucket with handles, a bucket replaceable auxiliary and the corresponding closing cover of said auxiliary tray

- Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the auxiliary cuvette of the previous figure, without the cuvette Main and closed with the lid.

- Figure 3 shows an exploded view in perspective of a variant embodiment of the container, of Rounded configuration for paint trimming jobs.

- Figure 4 shows a perspective view of the auxiliary tray of the previous figure with the closing cover to preserve a rest of paint.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As can be seen in the figures referenced the container comprises a main cuvette (1) with an upper mouth (11), replaceable auxiliary cuvettes (2) and attachable to the inner hollow of the main tray (1) and some covers (3) attachable on the upper mouth (21) of the auxiliary cuvettes (2) for the storage and preservation of excess paint.

Said upper mouth (21) comprises integrated protruding side handles (22) for gripping remain external to the mouth (11) of the main cuvette (1) when both cuvettes (1 and 2) are coupled.

In the example shown in the figures the cuvette main (1) is made of sturdy rigid plastic and It has handles (4) for grip and transport. Said bucket main (1) has a side wall (12) inclined towards within and provided with prominences (13). In the example shown in figure 1, the main cuvette (1) presents a configuration rectangular in plan and trapecial side profile.

The auxiliary cuvettes (2) are made of thin plastic material, which allows them to be manufactured at a reduced price and used as
disposable replacement.

The auxiliary cuvettes (2) have a wall inclined for draining brushes and rollers, provided with bulging prominences (23), in this case conical and distributed in a rectangular matrix, in correspondence with the prominences (13) of the cuvette (1) responsible for proportional the necessary resistance so that they do not deform when they are pressed by the roller or brush to drain.

The covers (3) attachable to the mouth (21) of the auxiliary cuvettes (2), they are also of a plastic material of little thickness, to allow the closing of said auxiliary cuvettes (2) whether they are housed in a bucket (1) or if They are extracted from the bucket.

As shown in figure 4, the cuvettes
(1, 2) may have a rounded configuration, which is more suitable for transport and handling when the container is used to make brush cuts of painted areas.

Once nature is sufficiently described of the invention, as well as a preferred embodiment, for the appropriate purposes that the materials, form, size and arrangement of the elements described may be modified, as long as this does not imply an alteration of the essential features of the invention claimed in continuation.
