Abstract

Extension element (1), which is guided coaxially in a receiving device (2), consists of a material suitable for aspirating drinking liquid (3) from a drinking container (4) and is provided with an extension device (5) with which the extension element (1 ) is extendable over at least a part of its length, part of its length is designed as a ring bellows (6), the receiving device (2) together with extension element (1) act on the Archimedean buoyancy principle and the lower part (10) of the extension element (1) in Area of the annular bellows (6) from the vertical axis of the drinking container (4) towards the edge (8) of the drinking container bottom (9) is deflected and so the entire contents of the drinking container (3) can be removed by suction with the mouth.

Description

The invention relates to a receiving device including one or more parts extension element mainly of plastic, which are used together in a cylindrical or cuboid drinking container, and you can suck with this recording device together with extension element drinking liquid from a drinking container with the features of the preamble of claim 1.

Drinking straws for aspirating drinking liquids with the mouth, which are known in drinking containers, such as cans made of sheet metal or plastic or beverage bottles made of glass or plastic, at the top of a container closure in which drinking straws are included and emerge when opening upwards ,

Likewise, drinking straws, which are stored in plastic film containers on plastic cardboard drinking containers and are taken out to drink or attached to a screw cap inside and removable and are introduced through a perforation in the drinking container, known and in use.

The disadvantage, however, is that it is usually not ensured that the straws are far enough and permanently lifted out of the drinking container and the extension of the drinking straw by simple access and sufficiently strong extending is possible.

A further disadvantage is that receiving devices for drinking straws in drinking vessels, which form a unit with the container lid before the closing of the drinking container and are firmly connected to each other, can be used in currently known bottling only by consuming conversion or retrofitting of the bottling plant.

Since a large number of drinking container bottoms have a central curvature towards the inside, the disadvantage results that the use of a coaxially guided drinking straw without deflection thereof towards the edge of the container bottom means that the remainder of the drinking liquid can not be completely removed.

The object of the invention is to form an extension element for sucking a drinking liquid from a drinking container so that the disadvantages described are reliably avoided by a drinking straw is created, which always and far enough emerges from a drinking container through a centrally disposed in the lid opening, as soon as the closure in the drinking container lid is opened for the first time, and consequently it is possible to empty the entire contents of the drinking container by suction with the mouth.

This object is achieved with an extension element which is suitable for sucking liquid with the mouth, having the features of the preamble of claim 1 having the features of the characterizing part of this claim.

A very advantageous design of the coaxially guided in the receiving device extension element is that the extension element is provided with a telescopic extension means with which the extension element is extendable over at least part of its length, a part of its length is designed as a ring bellows, receiving device along with extension element the Archimedean buoyancy principle act as buoyancy and the lower part of the extension element is deflected in the length range of the annular bellows of the vertical axis of the drinking container to position the Einströmanfang to the edge of the container bottom and the entire drinking liquid are removed by suction with the mouth of the container can.

The guide tube of the receiving device, which is arranged centrally to accommodate the extension element, predominantly in the case of cylindrical drinking containers, can be designed to be of any desired length, taking into account the opening tab in the drinking container lid, which can be swung outwardly by actuating the closure inwardly or by a special construction. In the embodiment of the outwardly pivoted tab, the advantage is that the guide tube of the receiving device is carried out at a small distance to the bottom of the container lid to ensure that the extension element is well guided to the bottom of the container lid and therefore with only slightest deviation towards the center of the container lid can escape reliably through the outlet hole centrally positioned in the container lid.

It shows:

1 a receiving device including extension element with the lower part in the Ringfaltenbalgbereich deflected from the vertical axis, positioned with the Einströmanfang towards the edge of the container bottom, schematically;

2 a receiving device including extension element, the lower part of the vertical axis deflected, shown in the region of deflection by a dimensionally stable pipe bend, positioned with the Einströmanfang towards the edge of the container bottom, schematically;

In the 1 illustrated receiving device ( 2 ) shows the extension element ( 1 ), the lower part ( 10 ) in the region of the annular bellows ( 6 ) to the edge ( 8th ) of the container bottom ( 9 ) is deflected from the vertical axis and the entire contents of the drinking container can be removed by suction with the mouth.

In the 2 illustrated receiving device ( 2 ) shows the extension element ( 1 ), the lower part ( 10 ) from the vertical axis by a dimensionally stable pipe bend ( 11 ) and the inflow ( 7 ) to the edge ( 8th ) of the container bottom ( 9 ) is positioned and the entire contents of the drinking container can be removed by suction with the mouth.

Claims (2)

Extension element ( 1 ) coaxial in a receiving device ( 2 ) and for sucking off drinking liquid ( 3 ) from a drinking container ( 4 ) and a telescopic extension device ( 5 ), with which the extension element ( 1 ) is extendible over at least part of its length, part of its length being annular bellows ( 6 ) is executed, the extension element ( 1 ) including receiving device ( 2 ) act as buoyancy bodies according to the Archimedean buoyancy principle, characterized in that the lower part ( 10 ) of the extension element ( 1 ) in the region of the annular bellows ( 6 ) and with its inflow ( 7 ) to the edge ( 8th ) of the container bottom ( 9 ) and thereby the entire drinking liquid ( 3 ) can be removed by suction with the mouth from the container. Extension element ( 1 ) according to claim 1, characterized in that the deflection of the lower part ( 10 ) of the extension element ( 1 ) by using a dimensionally stable pipe bend ( 11 ) and the inflow ( 7 ) to the edge ( 8th ) of the container bottom ( 9 ) and thereby the entire drinking liquid ( 3 ) can be removed by suction with the mouth from the container.
