Patent ID: 8365938

Claim:
A detonation-proof, in the closed state, gas-tight container of circular cross section, openable and having an interior which can be made accessible by the fact that two container parts obtained in the separation of the container are axially displaced from each other, in which both the parts, upon opening of the container, one from the other demarcated and relatively from each other displaceable container parts, upon closure of the container, are lockable one against the other by a locking ring, characterized in that the container is a transport container for the storage and transport of detonation-dangerous or suspected detonation-dangerous material, that the locking ring is arranged between the container parts, that the locking ring has a multi-toothed double-sided bayonet coupling with coupling elements mutually facing the container parts, whilst the two container parts, in turn, having coupling elements matched to their respective bayonet coupling, that the coupling elements of the respective container parts which are facing towards the locking ring are constituted by a plurality of locking teeth, which are disposed along an outer end edge of the respective container parts facing, in the coupled-together state, towards the locking ring and extend radially outwards and inwards along radially outer and inner peripheries respectively of said end edge, whereby said locking teeth together form a double-sided toothed rim which closes off a wall of the container and that the locking ring, in turn, has a locking groove matched to each such end edge, each of which locking grooves having been matched to the end-closing double toothed rim of the respective container part and that the locking ring is rotatably arranged relative to the container parts transversely to their mutually facing end edges and which locking ring is locked in both container parts in one and the same locking operation.
