Stainless-steel drum container

Abstract

In a stainless-steel drum container ( 1 ) for the transport, storage and keeping-ready of liquids, in particular of liquid chemicals, having a cylindrical container body ( 2 ), which has a lid ( 3 ), a base ( 4 ) and a container opening ( 6 ), a gas supply opening ( 8 ) and a liquid removal opening ( 9 ) are arranged on the container body ( 2 ) at a distance from the container opening ( 6 ) and at a distance from one another. The gas supply opening ( 8 ) and the liquid removal opening ( 9 ) are each arranged in the lid ( 3 ). The gas supply opening ( 8 ) has a filling valve ( 10 ) and the liquid removal opening ( 9 ) has a removal valve ( 11 ). The filling valve ( 10 ) and the removal valve ( 11 ) are essentially of the same design. The filling valve ( 10 ) or the removal valve ( 11 ) has a coupling device ( 13, 14 ), which opens the filling valve ( 10 ) or the removal valve ( 11 ) when the filling valve ( 10 ) or the removal valve ( 11 ) respectively is connected to an associated connection line. The drum container ( 1 ) has an annular lid frame ( 18 ) which projects beyond the filling valve ( 10 ) and the removal valve ( 11 ). The container opening ( 6 ) of the drum container ( 1 ) can be sealed by means of a lead seal.

1 . Stainless-steel drum container for the transport, storage and keeping-ready of liquids, in particular of liquid chemicals, having a cylindrical container body, which has a lid and a base, and having a container opening arranged centrally in the lid, where the drum container has an annular lid frame which projects beyond the container opening, characterised in that a gas supply opening ( 8 ) and a liquid removal opening ( 9 ) are each arranged in the lid ( 3 ) on the container body ( 2 ) at a distance from the container opening ( 6 ) and at a distance from one another, in that the gas supply opening ( 8 ) has a filling valve ( 10 ) and the liquid removal opening ( 9 ) has a removal valve ( 11 ), and in that the annular lid frame ( 18 ) projects beyond the filling valve ( 10 ) and the removal valve ( 11 ). 
     
     
         2 . Drum container according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the filling valve ( 10 ) and the removal valve ( 11 ) each have a quick-fit coupling device, which opens the filling valve ( 10 ) or the removal valve ( 11 ) when the filling valve ( 10 ) or the removal valve ( 11 ) respectively is connected to an associated connection line.
