Abstract
A container, in particular a bottle, made of a plastic which can be elastically deformed. The container has a pipe for filling and removing the contents. The container has a part which can be folded in in its main part or in its shoulder section. The pipe can be brought into an inclined position relative to the axis of the container by a folding-in operation, by which the container contents can be emptied or poured out at an angle while the container is held vertical but upside down.
Claims12
Container, in particular a bottle, made of a plastic which can be elastically deformed, with a filler and emptying pipe, characterized in that at least one part, which can be folded in, of the container wall has predetermined or nominal bending lines in the form of line-like or strip-like weakened areas, at which the container wall can be bent or folded in such a way that the pipe can be tilted relative to a portion of the container from a stable normal position into a stable inclined position and vice versa, and
- (a) the part which can be folded in is bounded by nominal bending lines, which when viewed in the direction of the folding axis, diverge from one side of the container toward the other;
- and
- (b) between the nominal bending lines is located at least one wall surface inclined to the axis of the container, this wall surface widening from one side of the container toward the other.
