  • Patent number: 8863978
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pallet container (10), with a thin-walled, rigid inner container (12) composed of thermoplastic material for the storage and transport of liquid or pourable contents, with a trellis tube support casing (14) tightly enclosing the plastic container (12), and with a base pallet (16), on which the plastic container (12) rests and to which the support casing (14) is rigidly connected, wherein the trellis tube support casing (14) is constructed of vertical and horizontal tubes (18, 20) that are welded to each other, with the peripheral horizontal tubes (18) being rigidly connected to each other. The connection of the horizontal tubes (18) is accomplished by a positive clinched joint (24) disposed on the inside of the horizontal tubes (18), wherein the outside of the horizontal tubes (18) is free from any clinched joint deformations.

  • Patent number: 7897223
    Abstract: A pallet container includes a bottom pallet, a lattice frame, and a multilayer inner container made of thermoplastic material by a blow-molding technique and received in the lattice frame, for storing and transporting liquid fill material. The inner container has an exterior layer which is configured to be incapable of permanently retaining an electrostatic charge by allowing electric charges to be drained. The exterior layer contains an antistatic compound and has a layer thickness which does not or only insubstantially change a transparency or translucency of the exterior layer, allowing easy optical detection of a fill level of the liquid fill material in the container. The exterior layer includes a fusible, easily stretchable thermoplastic material (polymer). At least one of a center layer and an interior layer of the multilayer container includes a cold-impact-resistant HDPE material (High Density Polyethylene) with a high molecular weight.

  • Publication number: 20100200579
    Abstract: A pallet container for the storage and transport of liquid or free-flowing goods, includes a thin-walled inner container of thermoplastic material, a tubular lattice frame closely surrounding the inner plastic container in the form of a support jacket, and a bottom pallet upon which the inner plastic container rests and with which the tubular lattice frame is securely fixed. The inner plastic container includes for withdrawal of liquid goods at the lower side, approximately in mid-section in a side wall near its bottom a blown, calibrated tubular pipe for allowing attachment of a closeable discharge fitting which is fixedly welded with its tubular housing to the calibrated tubular pipe of the inner container.

  • Patent number: 3953108
    Abstract: In a digital light deflector which includes electrooptical polarization switches and birefringent prisms the influence of undesirably deflected radiation can be suppressed by providing, behind the final deflection stage, a lens for spatially separating the undesirably deflected radiation from the signal radiation and a radiation chopper which comprises a plurality of elements and is controlled in synchronism with the polarization switches.

  • Patent number: 3946370
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of making light dot distributions for the holographic storage of binary information with the aid of electronically controlled switching masks, characterized in that the individual elements of the switching mask are modulated in their path length through fading of the interference structure in the hologram associated with said elements.
