Abstract: The invention refers to a pallet container (10) for storage and transport of liquid contents with a thin-walled inner container (12) of thermoplastic material, with a support jacket (15) of wire cage bars or pipe bars which tightly enclose the inner container (12) and with a bottom pallet (16) suitable for application with a forklift and fixedly secured to the support jacket (14), wherein the inner container (12) is provided in the top plate (18) with a charging opening (20) and with a discharge valve (22) near the bottom. In order to improve the stacking capability and to increase the stackability, the top plate (18) of the inner container (12) is covered from above by a cover plate (26) which includes a central opening (28) for access to the upper charging opening (20) and is fixedly secured about its perimeter with the upper edge of the support jacket (14).

Abstract: The invention relates to a storage head for a blow moulding machine for discontinuous manufacture of multi-layer co-extruded and blow-moulded hollow bodies made of thermoplastic. To improve the product quality and to increase the throughput, each distributor element is designed as a spiral channel distributor (20) which distributes the individual molten plastic streams uniformly at the periphery. The ejector (14) consists of at least two concentric tubular pieces (42, 44) and the peripherally distributed plastic flows from the ejector (14) through an annular gap (46) into the storage space (16) in the storage head housing (10) below the ejector.

Abstract: The invention concerns a large-capacity stackable drum with a substantially cylindrical sidewall and top and bottom ends. To improve the stackability in particular the long-term stackability an internal hydrostatic pressure which supports the side wall is initially produced, when stacking several drums one on top of the other, in the gas space above the content and in the contents, of the drums stacked underneath, by virtue of the elastic flexibility of the top and/or the bottom of the drum, until a reduced stacking load acting through the top rim or grip ring of the drum into the drumwall is produced or support provided through the bottom rim or grip ring.

Abstract: A pallet container is disclosed as including a thin-walled container supported on a floor pallet and tightly surrounded by a wire grid connected to the floor pallet. The wire grid includes vertical edges which are joined together along a vertical junction region by a sheet-metal strip which is bent about the wire of the surrounding wire grid.

Abstract: A plastics processing machine, in particular a blow moulding machine, with mould halves of a first product mould secured to movable mould clamping plates, and separate mould halves of a second product mould clamped onto the mould halves of the first product mould. The machine is operated with the mould halves of the first product mould to produce a first product line. During this operation, the mould halves for the second product mould are removed. The machine is operated with the mould halves for the second product line by attaching these mould halves to the mould halves of the first product mould.

The ejector (14) consists of at least two concentric tubular pieces (42, 44, 46) and the peripherally distributed plastic streams issue from the front face of the ejector (14) and unite to form a single multi-layer flexible plastic tube in the storage space (16) in the storage head housing (10) below the ejector.

Abstract: Device for blow molding a hollow body with a blow molding device in which at least two solid flange rings are molded in the circumferential wall of the hollow body from the same thermoplastic synthetic material of the hollow body. The flanges are formed by compressing and fusing the material with a tandem slide. The movable slide parts travel unlike distances at unlike speeds of movement.

Abstract: A widemouthed, open topped steel drum of conical shape, having a large filling and emptying opening capable of being closed, in liquid-tight condition, by means of a lid and a tension ring. The sidewall of the drum has an encircling bead which, upon nesting of two empty drums, rests on the top edge of the drum beneath. The bottom of the drum has at least one closeable bunghole through which the upper drum can be engaged to remove it from the lower drum of a stacked pair.

Abstract: A bulk wide-necked drum open topped drum made from thermoplastic synthetic material for the transport of particularly dangerous liquid or solid contents. The drum body is of a lesser and conical diameter in the base portion than in the portion adjacent the top open end.

Abstract: A handle mounting for a container in which a bracket plate, removably fastened on the container circumference and made spreadably by at least one dividing slit, has an undercut formed in a projection around the periphery of its inner side, which in the installed state matingly engages a mushroom-like projection formed from the material of the container.

Abstract: Bunged vessel having solid carriage and transport rings formed in one piece with the shell of the vessel near the head surfaces of the vessel, wherein the horizontal lower edge of the ring and the vertical inner wall of the ring form the bearing surfaces for the vessel lifter. Each carriage and transport ring is connected in one piece with the vessel by a connecting ring formed of an axial prolongation of the cylindrical part of the shell of the vessel, while the bottom of the groove between the connecting ring and the part of the shell rising conically towards the head surface of the vessel is arranged at a distance below the horizontal bearing surface of the carriage and transport ring.

Abstract: A tension ring closure device for containers having a lever means for drawing together opposite ends of the ring for closure. The ring may be locked by means of a shackle extending from the ring through the tensioning lever and a second shackle-like loop extending from one end of the ring and through an opening in the other ring end.
