[0082] FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a container fastening system 1 according to the invention. In FIG. 2 the holder is illustrated in a further view (rotated by 180) but without a fastening means that is provided ex works. The following description is first carried out with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. The container fastening system 1 has a holder 4 and a fastening means 7. The holder 4 has a receptacle region 5 which is specified for receiving a container (not illustrated). To this end, the holder 4 is formed from a plurality of portions of a single continuous round rod 6 that is bent in portions and forms the receptacle region 5. The round rod 6 is composed of stainless steel and has a diameter of 4.0 mm. Whenever the term round rods or round rod is used hereunder, this herein also refers to portions of the continuous round rod 6.

[0083] The receptacle region 5 comprises a base 8, a rear part 9, and a front part 10. The front part 10 has a pair of round rods 19, running in parallel in the longitudinal direction LR of the holder 4, for forming front support elements 55 of a length of 80 mm, which have a mutual spacing of 80 mm, or according to a second embodiment of the holder 4, of 65 mm.

[0084] Said round rods 19 in an upper region of the front part 10 are connected by way of a bent feature that is oriented so as to be substantially transverse to the longitudinal direction LR. The bent feature is likewise formed by around rod 11.

[0085] The base 8 in a first portion has a pair of round rods 20 of a length of 20 mm said round rods 20 running so as to be mutually parallel and transversely (90) to the longitudinal direction LR in a first plane. The mutual spacing of said round rods 20 in this first portion of the base 8 is a=20 mm. As is explained in more detail below, these round rods form a first fastening region 51.

[0086] In a second portion of the base 8, the round rods 20 of the first portion of the base 8 transition into two round rods 21 of a length of 25 mm, or according to a second embodiment of the holder 4 of a length of 40 mm, that are outwardly buckled by 45, the mutual spacing of said round rods 21 steadily increasing as the distance from the first portion of the base 8 increases, wherein the round rods 21 of the second portion of the base 8 likewise run in the first plane so as to finally transition in a short arc into the round rods 19 of the front part 10 that run substantially in the longitudinal direction LR of the holder 4.

[0087] The rear part 9 in a first portion has a pair of round rods 22 of a length of 40 mm, said round rods 22 in a second plane running in parallel in the longitudinal direction LR of the holder and thus perpendicularly to the round rods 20 of the first portion of the base, and which have a mutual spacing of b=20 mm. As is explained in more detail below, said round rods 22 form a second fastening region 52.

[0088] A further pair of round rods 23 running in parallel in an oblique manner, specifically at an angle of 45 to the round rods 20 of the first portion of the base 8 and in a third plane, are disposed running in an intermediate part of the holder 4 between said round rods 22 of the first portion of the rear part 9 and the round rods 20 of the first portion of the base 8 in such a manner that said further pair of round rods 23 running in parallel, having a length of 28 mm, connect the round rods 20 of the first portion of the base 8 to those of the first portion of the rear part; the respective round rods thus in each case transition into one another in a short arc. The spacing of the round rods 23 in the intermediate part is also c=20 mm. As is explained in more detail below, these round rods form a third fastening region 53.

[0089] The round rods above the round rods 22 of the first portion of the rear part 9, by way of a short bend, transition into a pair of round rods 54, running in parallel, of the second portion of the rear part 8. The round rods 54 of the second portion of the rear part 9 are disposed so as to run obliquely, in the present case specifically at an angle of 45, to the round rods 22 of the first portion of the rear part 9, specifically so as to be directed inward, and thus running in a fourth plane. The spacing of these round rods 54 which have a length of 18 mm is also d=20 mm. As is explained in more detail below, said round rods 54 form a fourth fastening region 54. Said round rods of the second portion of the rear part 9, by way of a short bend, transition into round rods 25 of the end portion of the rear part 9. The round rods 25 of the end portion of the rear part 9 are disposed so as to run outward perpendicularly, that is to say at an angle of 90, to the round rods 24 of the second portion of the rear part. A constriction of the receptacle region 5 is formed on account of the short inwardly directed bend between the round rods 25 of the end portion of the rear part 9 and the round rods 24 of the second portion of the rear part 9.

[0090] The holder (FIG. 2) presently has four fastening regions 51, 52, 53, 54 that are in each case formed by a pair of round rods 20, 22, 23, 24 running in parallel, the fastening means 7 being able to be fixed to said fastening regions 51, 52, 53, 54. The fastening means in FIG. 1 is fixed to the first fastening region such that the connector means 60, which will be described in more detail below, obscures the view onto the round rods that in FIG. 1 form the first fastening region.

[0091] The fastening means 7 illustrated in FIG. 1 has a clamping device 12 by means of which the fastening of the holder 4 to the objects can be performed. The clamping device 12 has a first clamping jaw 13 and a second clamping jaw 14, wherein the spacing of the first clamping jaw 13 from the second clamping jaw 14 is variable by an in particular manually activatable screw device 15 in such a manner that the clamping jaws are convergeable and divergeable. In the embodiment illustrated, the second clamping jaw 14 is configured so as to be plate-shaped, wherein the effective clamping region 140 of the second clamping jaw 14 has a convexity which is adapted to the shape of a bar-shaped or rod-shaped object. The first clamping jaw 13 is composed of round rods running in parallel. At a distal end of the clamping jaw 13, the two round rods are interconnected by way of a tight bend in order for the effective clamping region 130 of the first clamping jaw 13 to be formed. The effective clamping region 130 of the first clamping jaw 13 is thus adapted to the shape of a plate-shaped, planar object that extends in a planar manner. The clamping device 12 is specified for being able to be fastened to bar-shaped or plate-shaped objects of a thickness or wall thickness of 10 to 50 mm, in particular 15 to 45 mm. The two round rods at the proximal end are articulated on the proximal end of the second clamping jaw 14.

[0092] The regions 130, 140 of the clamping jaws that in terms of the clamping effect are effective on an object have in each case one plastic cover in order for the surface of the object to be protected.

[0093] The second clamping jaw 14 has a bore through which a lower portion of a bolt pin 63 (described in more detail below) is routed. Prior thereto, the bolt pin 63 is routed between the round rods of the first clamping jaw 13.

[0094] The second clamping jaw 14 is simultaneously a detent for the connector means 60 (described in more detail below) of the fastening means 7.

[0095] FIGS. 3a to 3d show the holder 4 having the fastening means 7 that is fixed to the four different fastening regions 51, 52, 53, 54 as follows, wherein the reference signs refer to the illustration of FIGS. 1 and 2:

[0096] FIG. 3a corresponds to the illustration of FIG. 1. The fastening means 7 is fixed to the first fastening region 51 such that the fastening means 7 can assume a first holding position. The receptacle region 5 of the holder 4 in this first holding position is aligned in such a manner that the container in the first holding position is receivable so as to be substantially standing upright. The first holding position presently enables the user to fasten the fastening means 7 to an object that in the space extends parallel to a horizontal plane, such as for example a bar or a table edge. The object plane thus runs horizontally.

[0097] The fastening means 7 in FIG. 3b is fixed to the second fastening region 52 such that the fastening means 7 can assume a second holding position. The receptacle region 5 of the holder 4 in this second holding position is also aligned in such a manner that the container in the second holding position is receivable so as to be substantially standing upright. The second holding position presently enables the user to fasten the fastening means 7 to an object that extends vertically in the space. The object plane thus runs vertically.

[0098] The fastening means 7 in FIGS. 3c and 3d is fixed to the third fastening region 53 (FIG. 3c) or to the fourth fastening region 54 (FIG. 3c), respectively, such that the fastening means 7 can assume a third holding position (FIG. 3c), or a fourth holding position (FIG. 3d). Consequently, the receptacle region 5 of the holder 4 in these holding positions is also alignable in such a manner that the container is receivable so as to be substantially standing upright. The third and the fourth holding position presently enable the user to fasten the fastening means 7 to an object that extends obliquely in the space. The object plane in these cases thus runs obliquely.

[0099] The connector means 60 in the manner described hereunder with reference to FIG. 4a is specified for being able to manually move, in particular displace, the clamping device 12 between each of the first to fourth holding positions.

[0100] The connector means 60 comprises a bolt 61 having a plate-shaped bolt head 62 and a bolt pin 63, already mentioned above. Moreover a detent plate 64, wherein the detent plate 64 and the bolt head 62 are specified for captively receiving a pair of round rods, running in parallel, of the first or second or third or fourth fastening region of the holder between the detent plate 64 and the bolt head 62. To this end, the bolt head 62 has two correspondingly shaped convexities or undulations 65 that run in parallel. The round rods 20 that form a first fastening region are received in the illustrated case of FIG. 4a. The detent plate 64 has a bore through which an upper constricted bolt pin portion 66 that is proximal to the bolt head is routed. To this end, the bolt pin 63 in this upper portion has a reduction in the diameter D thereof to D1. The longitudinal extent of the constriction, that is to say the extent of the latter in the longitudinal direction L, is greater than the thickness of the detent plate 64. The bore of the detent plate is sufficiently large in order for the constricted bolt pin portion 66 to be received. However, said bore is sufficiently small in order to impact the non-constricted portion of the bolt pin such that the detent plate 64 is captively held without play in the longitudinal direction L between the bolt head 62 and the end of the constricted bolt pin portion 66. The bolt pin 63 below the detent plate 64 is routed, as described above, between the round rods of the first clamping jaw 13 and further through a bore of the second clamping jaw 14 (not illustrated in the partial view of FIG. 4a). A helical spring 67 is pulled over the bolt pin 63 between the clamping jaws 13, 14.

[0101] The bolt pin 64 is also part of the screw device 15 (FIG. 1). To this end, the bolt pin 63 has an external thread on a foot part. The screw device 15 moreover comprises a nut having an internal thread, which is screwed onto the foot part of the bolt pin 63. The nut in the case illustrated is configured as a manually activatable wingnut 68. According to an alternative embodiment, a knurled screw, in particular a star-shaped knurled screw, that is provided with a lock and is lockable by means of a separate key can be provided instead of the wingnut 68.

[0102] The force of the helical spring 67 that is pulled over the bolt pin 63 in a portion between the clamping jaws 13, 14 that acts in the longitudinal direction L of the bolt pin 63 presses the first clamping jaw 13 against the detent plate 64. In the embodiment illustrated, a washer 68 is disposed between the helical spring and the first clamping jaw 13, so as to be able to transmit the pressure of the helical spring 67 to the first clamping jaw 13 in a homogenized manner. By way of the pressure exerted (in the direction of the arrow, FIG. 4a) by the helical spring 67 on the detent plate 64, the detent plate 64 bears directly on the bolt head 62 such that the round rods that form a fastening region, in the case of FIG. 4a the round rods 20 that form the first fastening region, are held in a force-fitting and form-fitting manner between the detent plate 64 and the bolt head part 62. This state is schematically drawn in FIG. 4a.

[0103] In the case of the clamping device 12 being fastened to an object, the object is guided between the regions 130, 140 of the clamping jaws 13, 14 that are effective in terms of the clamping effect. Tightening by means of the activation of the wingnut 68 is subsequently performed such that the clamping jaws 13, 14 are first converged counter to the resistance of the helical spring and subsequently counter to the resistance of the clamped object. The first clamping jaw 13 here presses against the detent plate 64 with an increasing force and an increasing clamping effect such that the round rods that form the first fastening region 51 are held increasingly tightly and are fixed between the detent plate 64 and the bolt head part 62. Consequently, fastening of the holder 4 to the objects as well as the simultaneous force-fitting fixing of the clamping device to the first, or to the second, or to the third fastening region, or to the fourth fastening regions, is establishable by way of the screw device 15.

[0104] It has proven particularly advantageous for the holder 4 conjointly with the connector means 60 to be rotatable relative to the clamping jaws 13, 14, in particular to be rotatable by 360 about a longitudinal axis of the bolt pin, as is illustrated.

[0105] It has furthermore proven particularly advantageous for the connector means 64 to be specified for being able to manually displace the fastening means 7 between each of the first to fourth holding positions. As long as the clamping device 12 is not fastened to an object, the clamping jaws 13, 14 can be manually converged, for example between the thumb and the index finger of a user and counter to the light spring force of the helical spring. On account thereof, the detent plate 64 is relieved of the pressure of the helical spring, on account of which the pressure plate 64 is divergeable from the bolt head 62 by a dimension M, in the case illustrated by 5.0 mm, in the longitudinal direction L of the bolt pin 61 along the constricted bolt pin portion 66. This state is schematically drawn in FIG. 4b. The dimension M and the shaping of the detent plate 64 and of the bolt head part 62 are mutually adapted and specified such that the round rods that form the first, the second, the third, and/or the fourth fastening region are captively held also in this state of the maximum possible spacing between the detent plate 64 and the bolt head part 62. By contrast, the clamping device 12 in this state can be effortlessly displaced from one holding position to another. To this end, the dimension M and the shaping and dimension of the detent plate 64 and of the bolt head part 62 are mutually adapted and specified such that the connector means 60 is movable also across the short arcs which separate the fastening regions from one another such that the first to fourth holding positions illustrated in FIGS. 3a-3d are assumable. Since the round rods 25 of the end portion of the rear part 9 are disposed so as to run perpendicularly, that is to say in an outward manner at an angle of 90 to the round rods 24 of the second portion of the rear part, the dimension M is however not sufficient for moving the connector means 60 also across the short arc which connects the round rods 25 of the end portion to the round rods 24 of the second portion of the rear part. Therefore, the fastening means in the preferred embodiment cannot be completely separated from the holder.

[0106] On account thereof, the user is thus enabled in a particularly comfortable manner to provide different holding positions of the clamping device in order for the objects that specifically present themselves at the point of care to be able to be used in a flexible manner in order for the holder to be fastened.

[0107] In the embodiment of the container fastening system 1 illustrated, the fastening region plane, thus the plane in which the pair of round rods that form the respective fastening regions of the holder run in a holding position, is oriented so as to be parallel with an object plane, thus oriented in relation to a plane in which the objects run and to which the clamping device is fastenable in a respective holding position. FIGS. 5a and 5b show this in an exemplary manner. The clamping device 12 that forms the fastening means 7 here is fixed to the first fastening region 51 in the first holding position. In the application situation, the round rods that form the first fastening region run in the horizontally running plane, so as to be able to receive a container that is standing upright in the receptacle region of the holder (obscured in the view of FIGS. 5a and 5b by the connector means 60, thus not visible). The regions of the clamping jaws that in terms of the clamping effect are effective here are aligned such that said regions are fixable to objects which likewise run parallel with a horizontally running plane. In the case of FIG. 5a said object is schematically illustrated as a plate-shaped portion of a table edge 100. The object is schematically illustrated as a portion of a bed bar 101 in FIG. 5b. A horizontally running plane in FIGS. 5a and 5b is indicated by the mutually intersecting arrows X and Y. The object plane in both cases runs parallel with the fastening plane.

[0108] The parallelism of the fastening plane and the respective object plane has the advantage that the user who intends to fasten the container fastening system to an object at the point of care can vary rapidly take a decision pertaining to a suitable holding position, consequently the most suitable fastening region for fixing the fastening means 7 to the holder.

[0109] FIGS. 6a and 6b schematically visualize a further advantage of the particularly preferred embodiment of the invention described. A container 2 having a metering pump 31 is moved to a first use position according to FIG. 6a, said container 2 being suitable for receiving in the receptacle region of the holder 4 particularly in terms of the dimension of said container 2.

[0110] This first use position corresponds to a particularly suitable position in which the container 2 is received so as to be substantially standing upright in the receptacle region of the holder 4. An imaginary longitudinal direction LRF of the container 2 herein is aligned so as to be parallel with the longitudinal direction LR of the receptacle region of the holder 4.

[0111] Image 6b shows the container 2 once the latter has been transferred from the first use position to a second use position.

[0112] The first use position differs from the second use position at least by way of the degree of the inclination of the container relative to the longitudinal direction LR of the receptacle region. The second use position in the case illustrated is enabled in that the depth of the receptacle region 5 of the holder 4, proceeding from the base 8 of the holder 4, initially increases toward the top in that the round rods 23 in the third fastening region 53 bend outwards before said round rods 23 as the round rods 22 in the second fastening region 52 run substantially perpendicularly to the round rods 20, 21 that form the base 8 of the receptacle region 5, so as then, as round rods 24, bending inward to form the fourth fastening region 54 (cf. FIG. 2). On account thereof, space is achieved for the second use position, so to speak.

[0113] In the case illustrated, the degree of the inclination of the container, that is to say the angle of a longitudinal direction of the container LRF in relation to a longitudinal direction LR of the receptacle region, is 10. Consequently, the second use position corresponds to a further suitable position in which the container is received obliquely, so as to be inclined toward the front, in the receptacle region of the holder. The second use position thus enables the metering pump to be activatable also by a pump impulse that is manually applied from obliquely above in order for the in particular liquid, in any case pumpable, cleaning or disinfecting agent to be dispensed in the case of a container that is provided with a simple, manually activatable, metering pump.

[0114] FIG. 7 schematically shows a container 2 which is drawn as a dotted line and which is received in the receptacle region of a container fastening system according to the invention. The container 2 in an exemplary manner has the shape of a cuboid having the height H, the depth T, and the width B. The height H is 16.0 cm. The depth T is 8.0 cm. The width B is 8.0 cm. The container 2 has a schematically indicated flange 3 to which a metering pump (not illustrated) can be flange-fitted.

[0115] Moreover the height FH, the width FB, and the depth FT of the receptacle region of the holder are drawn. The depth FT is 9.5 cm. It is here assumed that the depth FT of the receptacle region is understood to be defined by the spacing in the x-direction of those components of the holder that delimit the depth of the receptacle region. In the case illustrated, this is the spacing of the round rod 11 that forms the bend of the front part of the holder from the round rods 22 that form the second fastening region. The height FH of the receptacle region is 9.5 cm and corresponds to the maximum extent in the z-direction of those components of the holder that form the receptacle region. The width FB of the receptacle region is defined by the spacing in the y-direction of those components of the holder that delimit the width of the receptacle region. In the case illustrated, this is the mutual spacing of the two support elements of the front part of the holder, said spacing in the case illustrated being FB=8.0 cm.

[0116] It can moreover be seen that only an extremely small proportion of the faces of the four vertically oriented visible sides of the container 2 is obscured by the holder. On account thereof, the user has the opportunity of being able to be aware of potential items of information that are present on the visible faces, such as printed labels which are attached to the visible sides. In the case illustrated, only approximately 5% of a respective face is obscured by the round rods of the holder, such that approximately 95% of the respective face is freely observable and visible to the user.

[0117] FIG. 8 shows a further holder 41 of a container fastening system according to the invention, in which a first portion of the base 8 of the holder 41 is configured by a single round rod 20 in order for the first fastening region 51 to be formed. The first portion of the rear part 9 is also configured by a single round rod 22 in order for the second fastening region 52 to be formed. The second portion of the rear part 9 is also configured by a single round rod 24 in order for the fourth fastening region 54 to be configured. Finally, the third fastening region 53 is configured by a single round rod 23 of the intermediate part of the holder. By contrast, the second portion of the base 8 is formed by a pair of round rods 21 which, proceeding from the end of the round rod 20 of the first portion of the base 8, extend in the manner of a V by way of an increasing spacing, so as to by way of a short arc are to transition into round rods 19 which form the front support elements 55 of the holder 41.

[0118] A fastening means (not illustrated) can have, for example, a clamping device such as has been described with reference to FIG. 1. A connector means for connecting the clamping device to the holder 41 in such a case can be adapted to the shape of a single round rod such that the fastening means by means of the connector means is connectable to the first fastening region, as well as to the second fastening region, as well as to the third fastening region, as well as also to the fourth fastening region, and is movable across the fastening regions.

[0119] According to a further embodiment (not illustrated), the fastening regions 51, 52, 53, 54 illustrated in FIG. 8 are not formed by single round rods but by single plate-shaped components, in particular flat metal sheets. A connector means for connecting the clamping device to the holder 41 in such a case can be adapted to the shape of a respective metal sheet such that the fastening means by means of the connector means is connectable to the first fastening region, as well as to the second fastening region, as well as to the third fastening region, as well as to the fourth fastening region, and is movable across the fastening regions.
