Abstract

The objective is to manufacture a screw top (eco-friendly) for disposable bottles of any diameter, size, color or model. The idea is that the top does not detach from the bottle. This top cannot be removed when discarding the bottle, facilitating its complete collection (the top attached to the neck of the bottle), minimizing pollution, and avoiding its consumption by wild animals.
The idea is to adapt a handle -of the same material of the bottle- which is joined permanently to the ring or security band when opening the bottle.

Description

TECHNICAL BACKGROUND.

Nowadays, the tops of disposable bottles once they are separated from the ring they are easy to lose and very difficult to recover them (not all the times they reach the garbage dumps). We can see how they arrive to the most unbelievable and unrecoverable, contaminating the environment.
This new screw top (eco-friendly) is simple and affordable; it allows its collection because it is attached to the bottle, something that is impossible with the current tops because most of them get into the rivers, lakes, seas, shores, forests, streets, avenues, stomach of wild animals and so on.
This new impossible to lose screw top (eco-friendly) will always be reachable together with its bottle to which it is attached permanently making easier its collection, therefore the result is a less polluted environment, which is totally opposite with the current top.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DESIGN:

On figure A, we can see the impossible to lose screw top (eco-friendly) attached to the security ring by means of a handle or band as short as possible, which connects the upper part (the top itself) with the security ring below.
On figure B, we can see how the impossible to lose screw top (eco-friendly) remains attached to the security ring once it is separated from the disposable bottle after opening, it will always be attached to the security ring by the handle or band.
On figure C, we see the impossible to lose screw top (eco-friendly) in an open position to consume the liquid from the disposable bottle; it is always attached to the security ring by the handle or band.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION:

The invention consists of joining the top itself to the security ring with a handle or band of the same material, turning the top into an impossible to lose screw top (eco-friendly). The band or handle is flexible enough to allow elongation making possible to unscrew it and open up the bottle, and then, close it if there is some liquid left to be consumed later, or just not to drop it on the floor to pollute the environment.
The ring has a raise strip (crest) along the inner wall in an oblique plane with respect to it.
The highest section of the crest is attached to the upper border of the ring and thus, to the top; and the lowest section of the crest is attached to the lower border of the ring, in which the handle or band is (side view as an oblique line). When turning the top to open it, the opposed area of the hand or band is separated first, facilitating its opening without detaching it from the ring.

Claims

CLAIMS:

I am the sole owner of the idea of the impossible to lose screw top (eco-friendly) which consists of:
A cylindrical top, closed on the top to hold liquids and gases contained in the disposable bottle, with a screw in its inner wall which allows it to turn right or left to open or close, respectively. On its outer wall, it has vertical edges, so it doesn't slip between the fingers or hands when unscrewing to open it.
A security ring also constitutes the impossible to lose screw top. This security ring has in its inner wall a strip which prevents its going out of the bottle. This strip should be positioned obliquely with respect to the ring to rotate the top. It starts getting off progressively from the top of the ring until the very bottom, where it is attached to the top with the band or handle.
Indistinctly, the handle or band of the impossible to lose screw top (eco-friendly) made up of the same material (plastic) joins both outer walls of the top with the ring permanently, conforming a handle, which allows the top, once open, remains stuck to the security ring.
This handle or band is strong enough to allow elongation when unscrewing and opening the bottle easily to drink the liquid, and then, close it back in case there is liquid left or simply not to let it fall on the ground.
