Abstract (en)

[origin: US5535791A] A container (1) for masses (17) which can be pumped and which flow freely consists of a sack-shaped bag (3) made of flexible, diffusion-impervious plastic sheet which is closed pressure tight and arranged in a holding frame (2). From a bottom area (9) of bag (3), a conduit (11) to which an intake conduit (13) can be coupled emerges from the bag's discharge opening (10), which can also serve as a filling hole. During removal of mass (17) from the bag (3), the latter is progressively raised by a hoist (16). In this way and under the action of the reduced pressure prevailing inside the bag (3), the latter assumes an increasingly slimmer pear shape. In this way, the mass (17) accumulates in the area of the mouth of the conduit (11), and the mass (17) can be completely removed from the bag without difficulty and without air inclusions. In order to laterally support and protect the bag (3) when it is full, a holding frame (2) has a wall (5). The bottom (4) of the holding frame (2) has a cavity (20) in its middle, from the lowest point of which the conduit (11) emerges. Via a valve (14) provided in the bag (3) at the top, air can be pumped out of the bag (3) while the latter is being filled with the mass (17) or while the mass (17) is being removed.
