Description
Anmelder: Prank Gabriel, Them«· hlt.\l6,\26üi2.Öldekhv*ä, TeL: 0441 - 507730 Bezeichnung der Erfindung: R&tnilustierbaflfes*WattestabAeiv Applicant: Prank Gabriel, Them«· hlt.\l6,\26üi2.Öldekhv*ä, Tel: 0441 - 507730 Title of the invention: R&tnilustierbaflfes*WattstabAeiv
Marktübliche Wattestäbchen zur Verwendung bei der Körperhygiene, oder allgemein zur Reinigung von kleinen Teilen bestehen aus einem aus Kunststoff hergestellten Stabchen mit an beiden Enden befestigten Wattebällchen-Frühere Varianten von Wattestäbchen mit Holzstäbchen sind heute nicht mehr erhältlich.Commercially available cotton swabs for use in personal hygiene or generally for cleaning small parts consist of a plastic stick with cotton balls attached to both ends. Earlier versions of cotton swabs with wooden sticks are no longer available today.
Der im Schutzanspruch 1 und 2 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, daß die marktüblichen Wattestäbchen aus unverrottbaren oder sehr langsam verrottbaren Kunststoffen hergestellt werden. Sie lassen sich also nur mit dem sogenannten Restmüll entsorgen, und belasten bei Lagerung dieses ßestmülls auf Deponien die Umwelt für längere Zeit. Bei Verbrennung von praktisch allen Kunststoffen in Müllverbrennungsanlagen entstehen giftige Abgase, die aufwendig gefiltert werden müssen.The invention specified in claims 1 and 2 is based on the problem that the cotton buds commonly available on the market are made from non-rotting or very slowly rotting plastics. They can therefore only be disposed of with so-called residual waste and, if this residual waste is stored in landfills, they pollute the environment for a long time. When practically all plastics are burned in waste incineration plants, toxic exhaust gases are produced which have to be filtered at great expense.

entweder direkt als Biomüll entsorgt werden können da alle Bestandteile kompostierbar sind, oder daß bei der Entsorgung der Wattestäbchen nut dem ßestmüll weder bei der Deponierung , noch bei der Verbrennung des Restmülls einecan either be disposed of directly as organic waste since all components are compostable, or that when the cotton buds are disposed of with the residual waste, neither in landfilling nor in the incineration of the residual waste
oder Pappe aus Recyclingmaterial zu verwenden.or cardboard made from recycled material.
Die praktische Ausführung der in Schutzanspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung kann dergestalt aussehen, daß man die in Pigl beispielhaft angegebene Form aus mindestens 2mm dicker Pappe ausschneidet, ausstanz^oder dadurch gewinnt, daß man Papierbrei / Zellulosebrei in entsprechende Gießformen füllt und preßt. Anschließend wird das Pappstäbchen wie in Fig. 2 gezeigt beidseitig mit einem festen Wattebausch aus Baumwollwatte umwickelt oder umklebt oder umwickelt und umklebt.The practical implementation of the invention specified in claim 1 can be such that the shape specified in Pigl as an example is cut out of cardboard that is at least 2 mm thick, punched out^ or obtained by filling paper pulp / cellulose pulp into appropriate molds and pressing them. The cardboard stick is then wrapped or glued on both sides with a firm cotton ball of cotton wool, or wrapped and glued, as shown in Fig. 2.
Die praktische Ausführung der in Schutzanspruch 2 angegebenen Erfindung kann dergestalt aussehen, daß man ein Stäbchen aus aufgewickelten Papierstreifen herstellt, und zwar entweder in gerader Wicklung wie in Fig. 3 dargestellt ( gleiche Wickeltechnik, die z.B. bei der Herstellung von Silvesterböllern angewendet wird ), oder in schräger Wicklung wie in Fig. 4 dargestellt ( Wickeltechnik, wie sie zur Herstellung von Papierrollen wie beispielsweise der Papierhülse zum Aufwickeln von Toilettenpapier angewendet wird ).The practical implementation of the invention specified in claim 2 can be such that a stick is produced from wound paper strips, either in a straight winding as shown in Fig. 3 (the same winding technique that is used, for example, in the production of New Year's Eve firecrackers), or in an oblique winding as shown in Fig. 4 (winding technique that is used to produce paper rolls such as the paper tube for winding up toilet paper).
Anschließend wird das derart hergestellte Papierstäbchen beidseitig mit einem festen Wattebausch aus Baumwollwatte umwickelt oder umklebt oder umwickelt und umklebt wie in Fig. 5 dargestellt.The paper stick thus produced is then wrapped or glued on both sides with a firm cotton ball or wrapped and glued as shown in Fig. 5 .
