Abstract

Depending on their type (high-wall crates which are stackable in columns or offset at a ratio of 3:4 or 3:2; low-wall crates), bottle crates are optimised differently in respect of their bottle crate function, e.g. dimensioning, statics and material consumption, and also in respect of their appearance. In this case, the construction of, in particular, gripping edge 22 and side wall 14, of the crate bottom 2 in the case of high-wall crates is matched to the construction of the crate corners and of stacking rib/stacking groove mating. <IMAGE>

Description

Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a bin case according to the preamble of claim 1.

2. Description of the Related Art Among the bottle cases, there are tall cases and short cases. In the lower case, the bottle projects upward from the case, so when the lower cases packed with the bottle are stacked one above the other, the bottoms of the upper cases contact the heads of the bottles arranged in the lower cases. In this case, the original support function in the stacked state is provided by the bottom of the case separately from the bottle. In lower cases, the bottom of the case is usually provided with a ring, so that the head of the bottle, for example the crown, is inserted into the lower case or cases of the layers immediately below it in the stacked state, while the bottle of the lower case is It is adapted to engage the ring so that it is centered and retained within the ring. On the contrary, in the high case, the bins are contained within the bin case such that when the cases are stacked one above the other, the respective upper bin cases rest directly on the walls of the underlying bin case layer.

However, the high cases are basically divided into three groups by structure and by stackability type.

The first group relates to tall cases where the columns can be stacked.
In the pillar stacking, the upper bin case is strictly supported by the lower bin case in a stacked state of the bin cases. Therefore, the entire bin case stack is divided into separate vertical bin case columns that are two-dimensionally arranged.

The other two groups are different from the first group in that bottle cases stacked in different layers located above and below are arranged so as to be offset from each other. Such a high case is further divided into two groups, that is, a second group and a third group. In the second group of bin cases, the vertical force lines pass through the corners of the bin case of one layer, and above and below that. Passing by the handle of a tall case that is staggered in layers, and in the third group of bin cases, the vertical force lines pass through the corners of the bin cases of one layer and are offset by the layers above and below it. Pass through the handle of the tall case. The third group is for alternating row stacking at a ratio of 3: 2, the second group is for other alternating row ratios, with the most common being an alternating row ratio of 3: 4.

The low case constitutes the fourth group in the discussion below.

During this time, a large number of bottle case structures were made public that were almost impossible to see, but the above grouping was to optimize the above four group of bin cases in the same direction, but differently. However, as far as it can be seen, it has not been systematized so far, but it has been considered consistently.

Within the scope of the description according to the invention some features known from other groups have been shown to exert new effects when added to new groups.

Moreover, the invention advantageously comprises the optimization of a bin case with compartments, but does not preclude the application of the invention to bin cases without compartments. The same applies to high cases with double-walled corners.

It can be said that, apart from the detailed consideration above, two generations of bin cases are known in the prior art. The first generation of bin cases are particularly characterized by single wall corner configurations. The second generation, in contrast, features double-walled corner configurations. As far as the high case is concerned, the present invention advantageously, but not exclusively, relates to an improvement of the high case having a double-walled corner configuration.

The second generation of bin cases is relatively different, only the stability of the corners of the bin case is put forward.

Problem to be Solved by the Invention The problem of the present invention is to create a third generation bin case, which is different according to different types of bin cases to further optimize the bin case function, material consumption and aesthetics. is there. More particularly, the object of the present invention is to provide a stack having a minimal outer surface crevice, which is of simple, stable and solid construction and yet allows good load absorption and unloading in the stack. To find a possible case.

Means for Solving the Problems Means of the present invention for solving the above problems are obtained by the features described in the first claim.

The other dependent claims describe at least advantageous embodiments of the invention, but do not elaborate on what sub-features may be known in these embodiments.

A particularly important solution idea of the invention, which is common to all groups, is to provide a configuration for carrying a given static load only where it is needed. Therefore, for the high cases of the second and third groups having the features of the superordinate concept described in claim 1, a structure in which extraordinary degree of deformation is strengthened by stopping the extra reinforcement and stabilization of the conventional general handle edge. Has been adopted. The lines of force of the laminating force extend through the handle and, if not necessary, rather an L-shaped profile at the handle edge is sufficient. However, in the high case of the third group according to the present invention, it is inevitable that the line of force passes through the handle, and in this case, it is necessary to provide a stable bridge at the handle. For this purpose, the E-shaped or EE-shaped profile known from the above-mentioned bottle cases remains in the construction of the handle. In this case, the EE profile is an E profile in which the central lateral flange is operatively divided into two central lateral flanges, so that there are four lateral flanges in total. By listing these two special profile types, the equivalent other profile types are also included.

On the other hand, in the high case capable of stacking in alternating rows according to claim 1 (and in the high case of the third group according to the present invention, the bottom of the bin case does not play a role of supporting the load, and the laminating force is exclusively underlined in the bin case ( It is ensured by the special design of the case bottom so that it can be transmitted by means of (possibly along with the corners), which allows the identification of the case bottom under load without compromising stackability. Not only is the deformability of the case possible, but it is also possible to make the internal structure of the case, for example, the partition, and the case bottom itself not too strong. Is weaker than the double corners by arranging the corners as a so-called pseudo double wall with the inner wall being at least partially omitted. Transmission of definitive load is performed between the bottle bottom and bottle, via a side wall structure including a corner portion of the bottle case is possible in order not performed.

With the above features, the complete static load bearing function can be guaranteed at the same time by the group uniquely, and material saving can be obtained. Of course, the above function can be improved within the conventional cost frame. A certain material cost is sometimes a problem, but only where it is actually needed. Therefore, the measures according to the invention do not lead to a loss of shape stability in the correct construction type, especially in the laminated state.

Other combined features contribute, in part, to functional improvements and in part to aesthetic improvements. Although some discounts are available depending on the group, the following optimization effects can be obtained: The side wall that constitutes the advertising surface facing forward is, as is well known, an undercut structure inside the bin case. It has drawbacks that must be taken into consideration when extracting from. However, within the scope of the combination according to the invention, the following combination effects, which are adapted to the combination of features, are obtained, for example an optimal aesthetic impression due to the surface with minimal tears, and also for the same reasons: Reduced ease, good cleanability in automatic bottle wash section or other washer, minimal material overlap, soft vibration to finger grip when lifting bin case, optimal pre-programming of force transmission etc. In that case, in particular, the outer surface of the handle edge can be exactly aligned with the advertising surface, but this is not strictly necessary.

The measures described in claims 14 and below allow the outer dimensions of the entire bottle case to be reduced by the amount of the stacking ribs. Up until now, a group of stacking ribs usually protruded on the outer surface of the bin case, and the stacking grooves were provided between the stacking ribs because they were arranged slightly offset from each other on the facing sides of the case. In addition, the bottom of the stacking groove was almost located on the outer surface of the bin case, which is the starting surface from which the stacking rib projects. In the present invention, since the stacking groove is formed on the outer surface of the bin case separately from the stacking rib, the lateral dimension when the bin cases are arranged side by side is reduced by the height of the stacking rib. In this case, not only the material of one stacking rib is saved and the stacking location is obtained, but also the other dimensions of the whole case can be chosen slightly different, i.e. on a given palletizing surface. The wall of the bottle case is offset to the outside to the extent permitted, and a slight increase in storage space is obtained.

The dependent claims to which it belongs are arranged so that the weakening of the side wall of each bottle case can be accommodated by a suitable stacking groove without substantial damage or the influence of the weakening is reduced. Depending on the type of bottle case, these additional measures are more or less important.

In the third group of high cases that can be stacked in alternating rows at a ratio of 3: 2, the bridge structure around each handle has sideways on the handle edge, but left and right vertical columns or supports for each handle. It can be said that it is advantageous if it is constructed with an E-shaped or EE-shaped profile connected to the ribs. In the second group of high cases, i.e. the groups which can be stacked in alternating rows in a ratio of 3: 4, the corresponding vertical support ribs or struts are provided in each case, especially if the handle is provided only at the end face of the bin case. It may extend to the left and right of the handle (provided that the handle of the general construction provided on the longitudinal side wall is within the vertical force line of the load support).

According to a further dependent claim, the bin bottom is located higher than the load-bearing edge area, or the corners are correspondingly higher or the upper strut area of the bin case projects. Need only be performed to a relatively small extent, and because it is performed to a very small extent, it is clear that the predetermined force flow remains exclusively within the range that supports the load even when flexed under load. is there.

In the bin case, it is even possible to draw further conclusions regarding the construction of the bottom of the case in the sense of the task setting on which the invention is based. In a high case where the case bottom does not contribute to load transmission in the stack, the vertical distance between the steps of the bins housed in the stacked high cases depends on the configuration of the case bottom according to claim 6. Can be reduced. The feature a) of claim 6 is diverted from the lower case. The concept of "bin head" may be that the crown is clamped to the bottle.
Characteristic b) is considered new in the bottle case in the first place as long as the drawer part of the ring serves only as a travel distance limiter (stopper) for the bottle head or the crown part, which is usually arranged at some distance. Therefore, in the low case, the drawer portion has conventionally served as an intermediate layer for supporting a load between the upper bottle bottom and the lower bottle head. Claim 6 is already itself a solution to the problem of the invention for high cases, but is particularly important in connection with the other solution ideas mentioned above. The reduction in the vertical distance between each step in the bin case stack also means a smaller structural height in each bin case. Furthermore, the demands on the static load absorption capacity of the laminate can be correspondingly reduced. These two things result in reduced material consumption. In this case, the feature b) of claim 6 ensures that the head of the lower bin in the stack does not directly hit the bottom of the upper bin. As a result, even if the bins of each stage that are continuous in the vertical direction in the stack get closer to each other due to, for example, the vibration during transportation in a vehicle, the head of the lower bin directly cracks against the bottom of the upper bin. Guaranteed to be risk free.

The embodiment as claimed in claim 7 is a stacked case of a bin case containing a bin in a bin case having a partition (or correspondingly another predetermined approximate bin arrangement in the case). Prevent tightening or locking at.

According to claim 8, the structural height savings of the high case may be equal to or higher than the order crown height, i.e. a few% of the height of each bin case even in the high case. This may correspond to a structural height savings up to the order of 1, because the bin head can be placed closer to the bottom of the bin immediately above it than before.

Along with the function of reducing the distance of the bottle case according to claim 6 and absorbing the shock, according to claim 9 a third function is to collect liquid in or on the ring, for example There is provided a method of dripping rainwater, and advantageously so that the dripping liquid does not hit the upper part of the bottle head, for example the entire cork or crown. This is particularly useful in connection with the measures according to claim 7, but in general always when the drip edge is sufficiently far from the bin axis or the vertical axis of each ring in the radial direction. It is valid.

The embodiment as claimed in claim 6 comprises a method in which the drawer of the ring is closed in its upper region and the dripping of liquid is carried out, optionally via the outer surface of the ring. However (according to claim 10) the drawn-out area of the ring is of a partially open configuration, so that the liquid is also guided downwards by the inner surface of the ring and in some cases the patent Advantageously, it is dripped according to claim 9.

Claims 11 and 12 relate to the configuration of the case bottom, respectively, and these configurations have a good function of the case described in claim 10 and the case bottom configured according to claim 6. , Combine with static configuration. Especially when deformable plastic is used for ring production,
The drawer part of the ring according to claim 6 also has a tendency to tilt, for example on a transport vehicle, for the individual fixing of the bottle heads in the stack, in particular also in the arrangement according to claim 12. It can also be used to reduce

Example All the bin cases have a case bottom 2 with a normal type of partition 4 on top of them, the partitions 4 being arranged inside a four-sided case wall 6 and having a height smaller than this case wall. have. In the short case according to FIG. 4, this difference in height is relatively unimportant and in the tall case it is noticeable.

In all of the higher cases, the corners of the case, where each two case walls border each other, have a double wall structure with an outer wall 8 and an inner wall 10. In the low case according to FIG. 4, the inner wall 10 is recessed into two wall bases 10a extending from the outer wall, so that this corner is in the form of a single wall corner consisting of the outer wall 8 located outside. The corner of the heavy wall collapses. " Each illustrated bin case has two long sides and two short sides, forming a generally rectangular parallelepiped that opens upwards.

The case wall 6 has side walls 14 in addition to the column-shaped case corners 12, the side walls 14 providing an advertising surface 16 on a flat outer surface. The outer surface of the side wall 14 which provides the advertising surface 16 is slightly recessed from the outer wall 8 of the case corner and the projections 18 at the bottom of the case, which are substantially in the same row as this outer wall 8, and other outer webs which may be present. There is.

At least end faces of all the bottle cases are formed with a handle port 20 extending vertically. In the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 3, a suitable handle is also provided on the longitudinal side of the bottle case, whereas in the embodiment according to FIGS. 2 and 4 the longitudinal side is closed.

The transition portion where the outer surface of the side wall 14 constituting the advertising surface 16 transitions to the corner portion 12 of the case and the protrusion 18 is not substantially right angle as in the known configuration, but is formed to have a roundness with a large radius of curvature. The corners are designed to be as clean as possible. The same applies advantageously to the other corners of the bottle case, and possibly also to the corners of the inner case structure. A horizontal handle edge 22 extends horizontally above the handle port 20 when viewed in the normal upright position of the bottle case.
The grip edge 22 is a vertical flange 24 in all embodiments.
Has a profile that is vertically aligned with each sidewall 14.

In the embodiment according to FIGS. 1, 2 and 4, the handle edge 22 has an L-shaped profile, the lateral flanges 26 of the profile each pointing inward as the upper limit of the handle port 20. Also, the bottom surface constitutes a gripping surface that can be grasped from below by the hand of a person who is trying to lift this bottle case.

In contrast, FIGS. 3a to 3d show a tall bottle case with a handle rim 22 which is normally constructed as an E or EE profile (FIGS. 3c or 3b). ing. Instead of the profile shape shown, it is also possible to take into account a shape in which the inner surface of the handle edge is significantly shaped and the outer surface has a shallow notch. Figures 3b and 3c
In the shape shown, each handle 20 is bounded upwardly by a complicated rib-shaped handle edge 22 and laterally by a vertical support web 28. Such a supporting web 28 can be provided on the side of the handle 20 in all other embodiments, but this supporting web is not necessary, since it is perpendicular to the handle in the stacked state, This is because no force is transmitted in the vertical direction. Therefore, in all the other embodiments shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 4, each handle edge 22 is designed as an L-shaped profile. At the top of the profile, at the same time, a ridge 30 which constitutes the upper edge can be provided. The raised portion 30 replaces the lateral flange by slightly narrowing the upper lateral flange of the E or EE profile of FIGS. 3c or 3b.

The inner surface of the handle edge further projects inward, thus forming an undercut with respect to the side wall 14.
Is located on the outside of the undercut, which gives a very smooth outer wall shape for all the bin cases and at the same time the possibility of obtaining a space within the case interior space. In this case, the side wall 14 continues to the case corner 12 in a region approximately in the center of the case corner space formed by the one outer wall 8 and the other inner wall 10 or the wall base 10a.

In particular, as can be seen from FIGS. 1c and 1d, the high cases of FIGS. 1 to 3 further have downwardly projecting stacking ribs 32 on the underside of the bottom of each case. In the alternate row stacking according to the figure, this stacking rib 32 is notched in the range of the support lines of the upper and lower bin cases which are staggered in order to relatively match the bin cases located above and below in the stack, The notch engages with the upper edge of the bottle case. Each bin case is placed on the floor via this stacking rib 32. In the stack itself, the stacking ribs do not have the function of supporting the load. In all high bin cases, the load-bearing function is rather carried by the supporting surfaces at the case edges or case corners that contact the upper edges of the bin cases located in the lower part of the stack.

In the pillar stacking according to FIGS. 1a to 1j, the transmission of the load in the stack takes place only via the double-walled case corners 12. According to FIGS. 1a and 1b, in order to remove the burden of the load supporting function from the side wall 14 which constitutes the rest of the case wall 6, the case corners are projected slightly downward (so-called low corner parts). 34) and / or according to Figures 1c and 1d there is a slight upward rise (high corner 36) (both against the side wall 14 between the case corners).

As can be seen from the stacking method pattern shown in FIG. 2a or FIG. 3a, the case corners of the bin cases arranged in different layers in the alternate stackable type are also arranged vertically. The requirements for pillar stacking are no longer met. In this case, rather the case wall must also fulfill the load bearing function. On the other hand, in tall bottle cases, the support function of the case walls should be as functionally separated as possible from the function of the bottom of each case, which has no support function in the stack and merely holds the bottles. is there. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 2b and 3d, the lowermost surface 38 of the case bottom 2 is higher than the edge 40 supporting the upper bin case in the stack (high position). Is the
2b and 3d upside down, with an upside-down bin case cross-section, and for a normal upside down bin case).

In this case, the lowermost surface 38 circulates beyond the corners 12 of the case, but this does not have to be strictly so in order to give a point-like transmission only in alternating row stacks.

It has become common in recent years to provide a stacking rib 41 group and a stacking groove group 42 on the outer surface 44 of the bin case in the above-mentioned bin cases and in all other bin cases. The stacking rib and the stacking groove are provided by the outer wall 8 of the case corner 12 and the stacking rib 41 engages in the corresponding stacking groove 42 so that the bin cases are juxtaposed in the same layer. Helps achieve alignment in both horizontal directions. This does not limit the commonality shown, for example, in Figures 1c and 1d. Thus stacking ribs
41 and the stacking groove 42 have in the horizontal direction the same adjusting role as the stacking rib 32 in the vertical direction, cooperating with the open inner diameter cross section of the upper part of the bottle case (so-called key and groove).

In the embodiment of Figures 1c and 1d, for example, an upper group 46 which is horizontally aligned, a central group 48 which is vertically aligned and a lower group 50 which is horizontally aligned are provided. The function does not change even if the sorting method is selected in reverse. In order to obtain a smooth outer surface in the central area for bundling the palletized bin cases, the central group 48 is omitted and the upper and lower groups are more clearly defined, in this case one another. Embodiments configured to have different orientations are also available.

The stacking ribs 41 further project from the outer surface 44, as shown in more detail for the upper group 46 and the lower group 50 in FIG. 1e, or more particularly in FIG. However, as described above, the stacking rib 41 does not have a stacking groove between them. The stacking grooves are formed separately rather than alternating with the stacking ribs and are cut into the associated outer surface 44, preferably to a depth of less than 0.5 mm.

Of course, the above-mentioned notch in the outer surface 44 formed on the outer wall 8 weakens the outer wall 8 to some extent. In order to minimize this weakening, according to FIG. 5, groups 46, 48,
50 are each divided into at least two subgroups (labeled a and b). In this case, it is possible for the stacking ribs 41 or the stacking grooves 42 to have the same or different characteristics in each of the subgroups located next to one another. Therefore, it is possible to consider the same arrangement in each group 46, 48, 50, and to exchange the stacking ribs and the stacking grooves between the lower groups in the same group. However, replacement is recommended, so that it is not necessary that the grooves / protrusions in each subgroup consisting of the stacking ribs 41 and the stacking grooves 42 all have the same features with respect to the same reference numeral a or b.

According to FIG. 1e, the stacking ribs and the stacking grooves are preferably constructed in a relatively dull shape with rounded flanks.

As shown in FIG. 1i, the wall section, which is preferably constructed by means of a handle, is also ergonomic at the corners.
isch) is configured.

Finally, as also applies to all other embodiments, from FIG. 1i the underside 52 of each handgrip 20 provided on the lateral flange 26 of the handgrip 22 is advantageously not horizontal and bends in a substantially vertical direction. And it turns out that it is extending. As a result, the ergonomic fit to the curve of the human hand grasping the case is optimized. This curvature can be provided not only in the horizontal direction along the corresponding case wall 6, but also in the direction of the depth of the handle opening, if desired.

The high case divider 4 according to Figure 1i is also visible in Figure 1f. The partition divides the inside of the case into a substantially square compartment 54 below the handle port 20. The shape of the partition is known and its geometric shape can be seen from Figure 1i. A bin 56 (see Figure 6a) can be inserted into each compartment. The bin rests on the case bottom 2 and the case bottom 2 is on the 1st f
According to the figures (see also Fig. 6a, or also Figs. 6b to 6g) it is configured as a so-called ring bottom. The ring bottom portion constitutes each ring 55 at the center of the bottom portion of each compartment 54. The head of each bottle placed in the compartment 54 of the bin case (high case in this case) of the layer below the case bottom 2 in the case laminated state, in the case of Fig. 6a and Fig. 6g. Part 58
Can enter the ring 55 from below.

However, the ring bottom known in certain lower cases projects until the head of the lower bin 56 passes through each ring 55 and directly contacts the bottom of the upper case, while 1f and FIG. 6a or the other FIG. 6b to FIG.
In the configuration according to FIG. 6f, the upper part 60 of each ring 55 is pulled out.
Is drawn out so that it only constitutes the head of the bottle 56, the stopper for the crown 58 in FIG. 6a. According to FIG. 6a, the bottle head or crown 58 is located below the case bottom 2 with a further slight distance 57. However, for example, due to differences in the manufacturing error of the bottle, or for example, foreign substances (stones, debris,
Bottles whose heads or crowns 58 are slightly raised above other bottles because they do not fully contact the bottom of the compartment due to the presence of sand etc. can be engaged in the ring 55 without hindrance. (See Figure 6a). Even in the stacked case of the bottle case, the head of the bottle or the crown portion 58 was placed on the case bottom portion 2 of the tall case where special consideration was given to it by the vibration during transportation (upper according to FIG. 6a). It does not hit the bottom and is gently suppressed by the withdrawn upper part 60 as a stopper, even if the bottle is popped by the vibration of the transportation.

Bottle head, each ring surrounding the crown 58 according to Figure 6a
The 55 area has radial play. This play 62
Is sized so that the bottle head or crown 58 can engage the ring without being clamped, regardless of the position of each lower bin 56 within the compartment 54. In that case, the lower limit of the ring, which is configured as a drip strip 64, is fitted with a bottle so that the dripping liquid does not drip onto the crown 58 of the bottle or other upper surface, for example another closure member, cork or the like. Positioning outside the head is achieved at the same time. The depth of penetration of the lower bottle head into the ring 55 is exactly or approximately equal to the height of the crown 58. In this case, the plunge depth is preferably greater than the height of the upper part 60 withdrawn.

According to FIGS. 6e and 6f, the upper part 60 which has been pulled out is configured in a completely closed state. Instead of the horizontally extending plate-like arrangement according to FIG. 6e, the centrally outwardly sloping arrangement according to FIG. 6f is suitable for guiding liquid to the outer edge of the ring 55 and from there to the drip strip 64. Is. Each compartment
An advantageous horizontal, or other curved type of bin mounting surface 66 for the bins located within 54 can be provided by a guide groove structure 68 provided on the upper surface of the ring 55. .

Also, as shown in FIGS. 1f and 6a to 6d, the upper portion drawn out may be cut out so as to allow water to pass therethrough, so that the liquid may be distributed along the inner wall surface of the ring 55. It can flow to the drip strip 64. In FIG. 6d, the notch is formed by each opening 70. However, one central opening 72 according to FIGS. 1f, 6a to 6c is advantageous.

According to FIG. 6c, the upper part 60 of the ring 55, which is pulled out, can be obtained by constructing the ring cross section into a frustoconical shape. Ring wall 76 of ring 55 as shown
Can be constructed with strips of constant thickness.

Alternatively, the ring wall 76 of the ring 55 can be configured as a stepped molding 78 (FIGS. 1f, 6a, 6b, 6d-6g). Ring wall step 78 is shown in Figures 1f and 6a.
In the figures, Figures 6d to 6g, it is T-shaped, in the case of Figure 6b it is L-shaped, and the web below each step forming part simultaneously forms a drip strip 64. The drip strip 64 is constructed in the embodiment according to FIG. 6c by an oblique overall strip which constitutes the ring wall 76. In general, the drip strips may have different drip edges, for example the inner edge 80 or the outer edge of the ring wall 76 which is broadly configured depending on whether liquid is guided through the inner surface of the ring wall 76 to the drip edge or through the outer surface. 82.

As can be seen in FIG. 6a, it is advantageous if the bin 56 has a mounting surface that is larger than the lateral dimension of each ring 55. Therefore, the ring 55 is contained in a lattice structure 84 (Fig. 1f), which together with the ring constitutes the case bottom 2. The girder 86 of the lattice structure 84 supporting the ring 55 may have the same profile as the ring wall of the ring, for example in the example of FIG. 1f it has the T-shaped profile of FIG. 6a. However, this is not always necessary. 1f
The reference numeral 86 extends parallel to the case wall 6 and parallel to the partition 4 while being divided in half, and is connected to the case wall 6 through a fork-shaped branch tip 88. Is advantageous.

Advantages of the Invention The bottle case according to the invention exhibits increased technical advantages, such as weight reduction and space optimization. In addition, the bottle case is easy to use for the user, for example, due to the structure of the handle part, and because of its surface structure, it shows a better cleaning property in the automatic cleaning section, and the appearance is smooth. Is good. The latter also offers brandability and ad effectiveness. There is also the possibility of using the space above the bottom edge as advertising surface if desired.
