Abstract

The invention discloses an inflator arrangement for inflating containers with non-rigid walls such as bags, which includes a body including inflating means adapted to inflate containers with non-rigid walls such as bags, and having gripping means adapted to assist a user to hold the body; and an enclosure cap member adapted to at least partially enclose the body, and having at least one control member for operating the inflating means.

IPC Classes  ?

• B63B 25/24 - Means for preventing unwanted cargo movement, e.g. dunnage
• B65B 3/14 - Methods of, or means for, filling the material into the containers or receptacles by application of pressure to material pneumatically
• F04F 5/14 - Jet pumps, i.e. devices in which fluid flow is induced by pressure drop caused by velocity of another fluid flow the inducing fluid being elastic fluid
• B61D 45/00 - Means or devices for securing or supporting the cargo, including protection against shocks
• B65B 31/02 - Filling, closing, or filling and closing, containers in chambers maintained under vacuum or superatmospheric pressure or containing a special atmosphere, e.g. of inert gas

Abstract

The invention discloses a dunnage bag arrangement for securing loads, which includes an inflatable dunnage bag having a gastight inflatable bladder, a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge and a second side edge; and at least one inflation valve adapted for inflating the gastight inflatable bladder and being located along the first side edge and/or the second side edge.

IPC Classes  ?

• B65D 81/05 - Containers, packaging elements, or packages, for contents presenting particular transport or storage problems, or adapted to be used for non-packaging purposes after removal of contents specially adapted to protect contents from mechanical damage maintaining contents at spaced relation from package walls, or from other contents
• B60P 7/06 - Securing of load
• B60P 7/16 - Protecting against shocks
• B61D 45/00 - Means or devices for securing or supporting the cargo, including protection against shocks

Abstract

The invention discloses a deflator arrangement, which includes a deflator cap member including at least one aperture and being adapted to be locked to an inflation valve of an inflatable dunnage bag and thereby adapted to allow air in an inflated inflatable dunnage bag to escape via the aperture(s). The deflator cap member is removably screwed to the inflation valve.

IPC Classes  ?

• B65B 1/04 - Methods of, or means for, filling the material into the containers or receptacles
• B65B 3/04 - Methods of, or means for, filling the material into the containers or receptacles
• F16K 15/18 - Check valves with actuating mechanism; Combined check valves and actuated valves
• F16K 15/20 - Check valves specially designed for inflatable bodies, e.g. tyres
