The invention relates to a draining device and a package (10) with such a draining device for a liquid material. The draining device (2) comprises a housing part (4) and a draining part (6), which is articulated around an axis (A) in relation to the housing part (4). The housing part (4) comprises a first channel (20) with an inlet (22) which ends on the inside (14) of the package (10). The draining part (6) comprises a second channel (26) with an outlet (29) which ends on the out-side (13) of the package (10). The housing part (4) is arranged to be attached on the outside of the wall (8) of the package (10). The draining part (6) is arranged with at least one puncturing device (7) in its end (9) being arranged opposite to the outlet (29). The puncturing device (7) is arranged to puncture the wall (8) of the package (10) so that at least one passage (15) is formed through which liquid material (11) being located in the package (10) may be made to flow out through the draining part (6) to the outside (13) of the package (10).
Draining device for a package for a liquid material, wherein the draining device (2) comprises a housing part (4) and a draining part (6) which is arranged movable in relation to the housing part (4), wherein the draining part (6) is attached articulated to the housing part (4) around an axis (A) in a joint (32), wherein the housing part (4) comprises a first channel (20) with an inlet (22) which ends towards the inside (14) of the package (10) during draining of the contents and an outlet (24) which ends in the section surface between the housing part (4) and the draining part (6), and wherein the draining part (6) comprises a second channel (26) with an inlet (28) which ends in the section surface between the housing part (4) and the draining part (6) and an outlet (29) which ends on the outside (13) of the package (10), characterized in that the housing part (4) of the draining device (2) is arranged to be attached on the outside (12) of the wall (8) of the package (10), essentially vertical in the normal draining position of the package (10) and that the draining part (6) is arranged with at least one puncturing device (7) in its end (9) being opposite to the outlet (29), which puncturing device (7) is arranged to puncture the wall (8) of the package (10) so that at least one passage (15) is formed in the wall (8) of the package (10) through which passage (15) liquid material (11) located in the package (10) may be made to flow out through the draining part (6) to the outside (13) of the package (10) whereby the package may be emptied via the draining device (2), wherein the outlet (24) of the channel (20) in the housing part (4) is arranged to change from not being in contact with to partially abut the inlet (28) of the channel (26) in the draining part (6) in a position where the channel (26) in the draining part (6) inclines at least somewhat downwards in the direction towards its outlet (29) in relation to the horizontal plane.
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the draining part (6) comprises a cylinder formed articulation cylinder (16) and that the housing part (4) exhibits a cylinder formed articulation bowl (18), wherein the articulation bowl (18) at least partly encloses the articulation cylinder (16) over more than 180°, whereby the draining part (6) is kept attached articulated to the housing part (4).
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the outlet (24) of the channel (20) in the housing part (4) is arranged not to be in contact with the inlet (28) of the channel (26) in the draining part (6) in a position where the channel (26) in the draining part (6) inclines at least somewhat upwards in a direction towards its outlet (29) in relation to the horizontal plane.
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the outlet (24) of the channel (20) in the housing part (4) is arranged displaced in a direction upwards in relation to the inlet (28) of the channel (26) in the position where the channel (26) in the draining part (6) is in a horizontal position.
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the draining part (6) is arranged to be folded to a position essentially parallel to the wall (8) of the package (10).
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that a seal (35) is arranged to be attached on the side (8) of the package (10) when the draining part (6) is folded to a position essentially parallel to the wall (8) of the package (10) in such a way that the seal (35) covers the outlet (29) of the draining part (6).
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that a recess (36) is arranged on the upper side of the housing part (4) in order to allow the draining part (6) to be moved close to the wall (8) of the package (10).
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the draining part (6) is arranged elongated in order to create a long lever which facilitates manoeuvring of the draining device (2).
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the draining part (6) comprises a grip part (30) arranged to facilitate manoeuvring of the draining part (6).
Draining device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the inlet (28) of the draining part (6) is displaced along the axis (A) in relation to the outlet (24) of the channel (20) in the housing part (4).
Package, characterized in that the package (10) comprises a draining device (2) according to any one of the preceding claims.
