Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen kindergesicherten Trommeldeckel einer als zylindrische Trommel ausgebildeten Großpackung zur Aufnahme von pulverförmigen oder rieselfähigem Produkt. Zu den trommelför­migen Großpackungen gehören Rundtrommein, Eimer, Fässer und der­gleichen mit kreisförmigem Querschnitt.The invention relates to a child-resistant drum cover of a large package designed as a cylindrical drum for receiving powdery or free-flowing product. The drum-shaped large packs include round drums, buckets, barrels and the like with a circular cross-section.

Kindergesicherte Deckel für kleinere Behälter, z. B. Verpackungen für Arzneimittel oder Haushaltschemikalien, die eine relativ kleine, abzusichernde Entnahmeöffnung besitzen, sind im Verschlußbereich wegen der Verwendung mechanisch stabilen Materials, z. B. Glas, Metall oder Hartkunststoff, und/oder wegen des relativ kleinen Öff­nungsquerschnitts formstabil. Die Kindersicherung kann daher unter Ausnutzung der Formstabilität konstruiert werden. Das ist im allge­meinen bei Großpackungen für den Haushaltsbedarf, die in der Regel aus Pappe oder ähnlich biegsamem Material hergestellt werden, nicht ohne weiteres möglich. Solche Großpackungen können aber stark saure oder alkalische Produkte, z. B. Geschirrspülmaschinenreiniger, unmittel­bar oder zusätzlich verschlossen in einem Kunststoffsack enthalten, die gegenüber dem Zugriff von Kindern im gefährdeten Alter gesichert werden müssen.Childproof lids for smaller containers, e.g. B. packaging for pharmaceuticals or household chemicals, which have a relatively small, secure discharge opening, are in the closure area because of the use of mechanically stable material, eg. B. glass, metal or hard plastic, and / or because of the relatively small opening cross-section dimensionally stable. The child lock can therefore be constructed using the dimensional stability. In general, this is not readily possible with large packs for household needs, which are usually made of cardboard or similar flexible material. Such large packs can, however, be strongly acidic or alkaline products, e.g. B. dishwasher cleaner, directly or additionally sealed in a plastic bag, which must be secured against access by children at risk of age.

Zur Kindersicherung des Verschlusses eines Großgebindes wird in den DE-OS 32 32 535 und 32 06 531 vorgeschlagen, eine Kindersicherung durch einseitiges Spannen eines Tragegriffbandes über den Behälterdek­kel zu schaffen. Das bedeutet aber einen erheblichen zusätzlichen Verpackungsaufwand. Zu der ohnehin erforderlichen Stabilisierung der Entnahmeöffnung durch entsprechende Deckelkonstruktion addieren sich nämlich bei den bekannten Sicherungen hohe Kosten für das bei­spielsweise gespritze Griffband und für das zugehörige, das eigentliche Sicherheitselement bildende Verschlußteil sowie für dessen Montage am Großgebinde mit eventueller Anpassung der Abfüll-Linie.For child safety of the closure of a large container it is proposed in DE-OS 32 32 535 and 32 06 531 to create a child safety device by one-sided tensioning of a handle strap over the container lid. But that means a significant additional Packaging effort. In addition to the already necessary stabilization of the removal opening by means of a corresponding lid construction, the known safeguards add high costs for, for example, the injection molded grip tape and for the associated closure part forming the actual security element and for its assembly on the large container with possible adaptation of the filling line.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen kindergesicherten Verschluß für den Deckel einer trommelförmigen Haushaltsgroßpackung zu schaffen, der wirtschaftlich herstellbar ist, keine Veränderungen in der Abfüll-Linie erfordert, unabhängig vom Vorhandensein eines Tragegriffs ausgebildet sowie zu betätigen ist und für den Benutzer eine einfache, keinen wesentlichen Kraftaufwand erfordernde Handhabung ermöglicht.The invention has for its object to provide a child-resistant closure for the lid of a drum-shaped large household pack, which is economically producible, requires no changes in the filling line, is designed and operated independently of the presence of a handle and is simple for the user handling that does not require any significant effort.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung besteht für den eingangs genannten Trommeldeckel darin, daß dieser aus einem unlösbar auf den Rand der zu verschließenden Öffnung der Trommel aufzusetzenden Deckelring und einer darin lose eingepaßten Deckelscheibe besteht, daß der Deckel­ring an seiner inneren Peripherie eine umlaufende Auflagekante besitzt, daß an die innere Peripherie mit einem der Deckelscheibendicke ent­sprechenden Abstand von der Auflagekante auf der dem Trommelinnern abgewandter Seite mindestens zwei Hinterschneidungssegmente mit Abstand voneinander angesetzt sind und daß die Deckelscheibe an ihrem Umfang mit den Hinterschneidungssegmenten im wesentlichen deckungsgleiche Ausnehmungen bzw. Segmentvorsprünge besitzt.The solution according to the invention for the drum cover mentioned at the outset is that it consists of a cover ring which cannot be detached from the rim of the opening of the drum to be closed and a cover disk which is loosely fitted therein, that the cover ring has a circumferential support edge on its inner periphery that on the inner periphery with a distance corresponding to the cover plate thickness from the support edge on the side facing away from the inside of the drum, at least two undercut segments are spaced apart and that the cover plate has essentially congruent recesses or segment projections on its circumference with the undercut segments.

Durch die Erfindung wird demgemäß ein aus einem Deckelring und einer Deckelscheibe bestehender Deckel für eine Trommel geschaffen, wobei der Deckelring mit der Trommel, unlösbar verbunden wird und die Deckelscheibe innerhalb des Deckelrings, gegebenenfalls unter Betätigung dort vorgesehener Kindersicherungselemente, drehbar ist.The invention accordingly provides a cover for a drum consisting of a cover ring and a cover disc, the cover ring being connected to the drum in a non-detachable manner and the cover disc inside the cover ring, optionally under Actuation of child safety elements provided there is rotatable.

Als zusätzliche Kindersicherungselemente wird gemäß weiterer Er­findung eine Konstruktion vorgesehen, bei der die auch als Stirn­flächen-Auflageband zu bezeichnende Auflagekante, vorzugsweise auf einen Bereich von mehr als 90°, eine Teilaussparung besitzt, welche an ihrem einen Ende in einen Viertelbogen ausläuft und an ihrem anderen Ende ein Federsegment mit einem Knopf umgibt; außerdem wird die Deckelscheibe in einer Ausnehmung mit einem Betätigungs­loch ausgestattet, das etwa den gleichen Durchmesser wie der Knopf besitzt und durch Drehen der Scheibe mit dem Knopf zur Deckung zu bringen ist. Die gegenseitige Zuordnung wird dabei so vorgesehen, daß bei verschlossenem Deckel der mit einem Federsegment ausgerüste­te Knopf in das Betätigungsloch der Deckelscheibe einrastet.As an additional child safety element, a construction is provided according to another invention, in which the support edge, which can also be referred to as an end-face support tape, preferably has a partial cut-out, preferably at an area of more than 90 °, which ends in a quarter arch at one end and at the other End of a spring segment with a button; in addition, the cover disk is provided in a recess with an actuation hole which has approximately the same diameter as the button and can be made to coincide with the button by rotating the disk. The mutual assignment is provided so that when the cover is closed, the button equipped with a spring segment snaps into the actuating hole of the cover plate.

Die erfindungsgemäße Deckelscheibe ist also nur von dem Deckelring bzw. der verschlossenen Trommel abzunehmen, wenn zunächst der Knopf eingedrückt und dann die Scheibe so lange gedreht wird, bis ihre am Umfang vorgsehenen Ausnehmungen mit den Hinterschneidungs­segmenten des Deckelrings zur Deckung kommen. Die Kindersicherung ist demgemäß in der einfachsten Ausbildung des Tromeldeckels dadurch gegeben, daß vor einem Abheben der Deckelscheibe von ihrer Auflage im Deckelring um einen ganz bestimmten Winkel relativ zum Ring gedreht werden muß. In einer zweiten Stufe wird die Kindersicherung gemäß weiterer Erfindung noch dadurch verbessert, daß die Drehung nur möglich ist, wenn zuvor der die Drehung normalerweise ausschlies­sende Betätigungsknopf niedergedrückt wird.The cover plate according to the invention can therefore only be removed from the cover ring or the closed drum if the button is first pressed in and then the plate is rotated until its recesses provided on the circumference come to coincide with the undercut segments of the cover ring. The childproof lock is accordingly provided in the simplest design of the drum cover in that, before the cover plate is lifted from its support in the cover ring, it must be rotated relative to the ring by a very specific angle. In a second stage, the child safety device according to a further invention is further improved in that the rotation is only possible if the actuation button, which normally excludes the rotation, is depressed beforehand.

Um ein Abheben der Deckelscheibe vom Deckelring ohne vorheriges Drehen der Deckelscheibe in die Offenstellung auszuschließen, sind mindestens je zwei diametral gegenüberliegende Hinterschneidungsseg­ mente des Deckelrings und diesem entsprechende Segmentvorsprünge zwischen je zwei Ausnehmungen am Rand der Deckelscheibe erforder­lich. Die Hinterschneidungssegmente und die Ausnehmungen würden dann um etwa 90° gegeneinander versetzt angeordnet werden und sich jeweils ebenfalls über etwa 90° erstrecken.In order to prevent the cover plate from lifting off the cover ring without first turning the cover plate into the open position, there are at least two diametrically opposite undercut segments elements of the cover ring and this corresponding segment projections between two recesses on the edge of the cover plate required. The undercut segments and the recesses would then be offset from one another by approximately 90 ° and would likewise each extend over approximately 90 °.

Für die Praxis und Stabilität kann es aber noch günstiger sein, wenn der Deckelring drei um etwa 120° versetzt angeordnete Hinterschnei­dungssegmente besitzt und wenn sich die Hinterschneidungssegmente überjeweils 60° erstrecken. Die Deckelscheibe soll dann drei ebenfalls um 120° veretzt angeordnete Ausnehmungen und diesen entsprechende Segmentvorsprünge besitzen, wobei sich dann die Segmentvorsprünge über etwas weniger als 60° des Deckelscheibenumfangs erstrecken sollen.In practice and stability, however, it can be even more favorable if the cover ring has three undercut segments arranged offset by approximately 120 ° and if the undercut segments each extend over 60 °. The cover plate should then have three recesses likewise arranged at 120 ° and corresponding segment projections, the segment projections then extending over a little less than 60 ° of the cover plate circumference.

Zum Erreichen einer ausreichenden Stabilität und Dichtheit des erfin­dungsgemäßen Trommeldeckels ist es im allgemeinen günstig, wenn die Auflagekanten in radialer Richtung deutlich breiter, z. B. um den Faktor 5, als die Hinterschneidungssegmente gemacht werden.To achieve sufficient stability and tightness of the drum cover according to the invention, it is generally advantageous if the contact edges in the radial direction significantly wider, z. B. by a factor of 5 when the undercut segments are made.

Anhand der schematischen Darstellung eines Ausführungsbeispiels werden Einzelheiten der Erfindung erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine Draufsicht auf einen Deckelring;
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt längs der Linie II-II von Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 einen Schnitt längs der Linie III-III von Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 4 eine Draufsicht auf eine Deckelscheibe; und
  • Fig. 5 einen Schnitt längs der Linie V-V von Fig. 4.
Details of the invention are explained on the basis of the schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment. Show it:
  • Figure 1 is a plan view of a cover ring.
  • Fig. 2 is a section along the line II-II of Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is a section along the line III-III of Fig. 1;
  • 4 shows a plan view of a cover plate; and
  • 5 shows a section along the line VV of FIG. 4th

In den Fig. 1 bis 3 wird ein insgesamt mit 1 bezeichneter Deckelring mit drei an dessen innere Peripherie angeformten Hinterschneidungsseg­menten 2 schematisch dargestellt. Die Hinterschneidungssegmente 2 sind um 120° versetzt angeordnet und erstrecken sich jeweils über 60°. Zwei der Hinterschneidungssegemente besitzen jeweils an einem Längsend je einen einseitigen Anschlag 3. Zum Deckelring 1 gehört außerdem eine an der inneren Ring-Peripherie umlaufende Auflagekante 4, die auf einem Bereich von etwas mehr als 90° eine Teilaussparung 5 aufweist. Die Teilaussparung 5 läuft am einen Ende in einen Viertel­kreisbogen 6 aus und umgibt im Bereich des anderen Endes ein Feder­segment mit einem Knopf 8.1 to 3, a cover ring, generally designated 1, with three undercut segments 2 formed on its inner periphery is shown schematically. The undercut segments 2 are arranged offset by 120 ° and each extend over 60 °. Two of the undercut segments each have a one-sided stop at one longitudinal end 3. The cover ring 1 also includes a peripheral edge 4 on the inner ring periphery, which has a partial recess 5 in an area of somewhat more than 90 °. The partial recess 5 ends at one end in a quarter-circle arc 6 and surrounds a spring segment with a button 8 in the area of the other end.

In den Fig. 4 und 5 wird eine Deckelscheibe 9 dargestellt, die drei unter 120° versetzt angeordnete Segmentvorsprünge 10 zwischen jeweils zwei Ausnehmungen 11 ihres Umfangs besitzt. Im Ausführungsbeispiel erstrecken sich die Segmentvorsprünge 10 jeweils über etwas weniger als 60°, Etwa mittig zwischen zwei Segmentvorsprüngen 10 wird auf dem gleichen Deckeldurchmesser wie der Knopf 8 von Fig. 1 ein Be­tätigungsloch 12 vorgesehen, dessen Durchmesser etwa demjenigen des Knopfes 8 entspricht.4 and 5, a cover plate 9 is shown, which has three segment projections 10 arranged offset at 120 ° between two recesses 11 of their circumference. In the exemplary embodiment, the segment projections 10 each extend over a little less than 60 °. About halfway between two segment projections 10, an actuation hole 12 is provided on the same cover diameter as the button 8 of FIG. 1, the diameter of which corresponds approximately to that of the button 8.

Bei Anwendung zum Verschließen einer (nicht gezeichneten) Trommel wird die Deckelscheibe 9 derart in den Deckelring eingelegt, daß der in Fig. 4 dargestellte Pfeil 13 mit dem in Fig. 1 die Bezeichnung "AUF" tragenden Pfeil 14 gegenübersteht. Der Deckelring 1 liegt dann auf der Auflagekante 4 auf. Durch Rechtsdrehung der Deckelscheibe 9 um 60° gegenüber dem Deckelring 1 gleiten die Segmentvorsprünge 9 in die Hinterschneidungssegmente 2 bis sie an die Anschläge 3 an­stoßen und bis der Knopf 8 in das Betätigungsloch 12 einrastet. Das Eintreten des Knopfes 8 in das Betätigungsloch 12 kann durch eine Feder-Vorspannung hörbar gemacht werden. Nach diesem Einrasten des Knopfes 8 in dem Betätigungsloch 12 sitzt die Deckelscheibe 9 gegen jede weitere Verdrehung gesichert, allseits schließend auf der Auflagekante 4 des Deckelrings 1 auf.When used to close a drum (not shown) the cover disk 9 is inserted into the cover ring in such a way that the arrow 13 shown in FIG. 4 is opposite the arrow 14 bearing the designation "UP" in FIG. The cover ring 1 then lies on the support edge 4. By turning the cover disk 9 clockwise by 60 ° relative to the cover ring 1, the segment projections 9 slide into the undercut segments 2 until they abut the stops 3 and until the button 8 engages in the actuation hole 12. The entry of the button 8 into the actuation hole 12 can be made audible by a spring bias. After this latching of the button 8 in the actuating hole 12, the cover plate 9 is secured against any further rotation, closing on all sides on the contact edge 4 of the cover ring 1.

Die Packung läßt sich trotzdem problemlos mit nur einem Finger öffnen. Dazu wird der Knopf 8 durch das Betätigungsloch 12 nieder­gedrückt, gleichzeitig wird die Deckelscheibe 9 nach links bis zur Markierung "AUF" entriegelt. Sie kann dann mit der Fingerkuppe angehoben werden.The pack can still be easily opened with just one finger. For this purpose, the button 8 is depressed through the actuating hole 12, at the same time the cover plate 9 is unlocked to the left up to the "OPEN" mark. It can then be lifted with the fingertip.

Kinder im gefährdeten Alter können jedoch die Deckelscheibe nicht bewußt in die Öffnungsposition im Deckelring bringen. Eine doppelte Kindersicherung wird demgemäß erzielt, wenn zwei überlagerte Bewe­gungen, nämlich das Eindrücken des Knopfes 8 und das Drehen der Deckelscheibe 9, gleichzeitig auszuführen sind.However, children at risk of age cannot consciously bring the cover plate into the open position in the cover ring. A double child lock is accordingly achieved if two superimposed movements, namely the pushing in of the button 8 and the turning of the cover plate 9, are to be carried out simultaneously.
