Plastic container

Abstract

A plastic container ( 1 ) including a bottom ( 2 ) having a cross section deviating from a circular cross section, with an injection point ( 4 ) being provided in a central area of this bottom ( 2 ). According to the invention, the bottom ( 2 ) has at least two first radially extending main ribs ( 6 a , 6 b ) which extend in a straight line across the bottom ( 2 ) in such a way that a geometric connection line (L 1 ) extends through the injection point ( 4 ), with the injection point ( 4 ) being located in a first recess ( 12 ) of the bottom ( 2 ), which recess ( 12 ) extends in the direction of the internal space of the plastic container ( 1 ) and which recess ( 12 ) separates the two first main ribs ( 6 a , 6 b ) from each other.

1 . A plastic container ( 1 ) including a bottom ( 2 ) having a cross section deviating from a circular cross section, with an injection point ( 4 ) being provided in a central area of this bottom ( 2 ), wherein the bottom ( 2 ) has at least two first radially extending main ribs ( 6   a ,  6   b ) which extend in a straight line across the bottom ( 2 ) in such a way that a geometric connection line (L 1 ) extends through the injection point ( 4 ), with the injection point ( 4 ) being located in a first recess ( 12 ) of the bottom ( 2 ), which recess extends in the direction of the internal space of the plastic container ( 1 ) and which recess ( 12 ) separates the two first main ribs ( 6   a ,  6   b ) from each other. 
   
   
       2 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the two first main ribs ( 6   a ,  6   b ) reach up to the recess ( 12 ). 
   
   
       3 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the bottom ( 2 ) has two second main ribs ( 8   a ,  8   b ) which extend in a straight line across the bottom ( 2 ) in such a way that a geometric connection line (L 2 ) extends through the injection point ( 4 ). 
   
   
       4 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the recess ( 12 ) separates the two second main ribs ( 6   a ,  6   b ) from each other. 
   
   
       5 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the first geometric connection line (L 1 ) is located essentially perpendicularly in relation to the second geometric connection line (L 2 ). 
   
   
       6 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least one main rib ( 6   a ,  6   b ,  8   a ,  8   b ) extends to an edge ( 20 ) of the bottom ( 2 ). 
   
   
       7 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the bottom ( 2 ) has a symmetrical cross section. 
   
   
       8 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein an edge ( 20 ) of the bottom ( 2 ) has four sections ( 22 ) extending essentially in a straight line. 
   
   
       9 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the edge ( 20 ) of the bottom ( 2 ) has four corner sections ( 24 ) with a specified radius of curvature. 
   
   
       10 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein between at least one first main rib ( 6   a ) and at least one second main rib ( 8   a ) a secondary rib ( 16   a ) is located, this secondary rib extending along a geometric line (N) which extends through the injection point ( 4 ). 
   
   
       11 . The plastic container as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein four secondary ribs ( 16   a ,  16   b ,  18   a ,  18   b ) are disposed between the main ribs ( 6   a ,  6   b ,  8   a ,  8   b ). 
   
   
       12 . The plastic container as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein each secondary rib ( 16   a ,  16   b ,  18   a ,  18   b ) is shorter than each of the main ribs ( 6   a ,  6   b ,  8   a ,  8   b ). 
   
   
       13 . The plastic container as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the connection lines (N 1 , N 2 ) of two secondary ribs ( 16   a ,  16   b ,  18   a ,  18   b ), respectively, are disposed essentially perpendicularly with respect to each other. 
   
   
       14 . The plastic container ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the main ribs ( 6   a ,  6   b ,  8   a ,  8   b ) extend either parallel or perpendicularly to the straight sections ( 22 )
