Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a container for drinks having a drinking-straw incorporated therein.
  • Such a container can be a battle provided with a cap at the top or more particularly a pop-top can for soft and/or effervescent drinks in which the opening system is represented by a tab ending in a ring.
  • the main object of the present invention is therefore to eliminate the above drawbacks by providing a container for soft drinks allowing the liquid to be drinken in a quite hygienic manner.
  • Another object of the present invention is to enable the consumer to have a straw always at his disposal so that he may take the liquid directly from the container.
  • 1 denotes a can for soft drinks.
  • the can is provided with the traditional removable element 2 for "pop-opening" it, which consists of a tab 3 ending in a ring 4.
  • a drinking-straw 5 which is plunged in the can liquid (not shown).
  • the upper end of the straw 5 is associated with the removable element 2 through a fastening means 6.
  • the upper end of the straw 5 is fastened to the tab 3 through a projection substantially of truncated conical form used as the fastening means and identified by 6 as well, which is located on the tab 3 and faces the inner part of the can 1.
  • the upper end of the drinking-straw is detachably fitted on the frustoconical projection 6 so that it is secured to the tab 3.
  • the straw 5 By tearing up the removable element 2 the straw 5 will be withdrawn from the can 1, as it has been secured to the tab 3. After this opening step, the consumer will easily separate the straw 5 from the projection 6 by exerting a slight pulling action in an axial direction. In this manner the drinking-straw 5 becomes quickly available for use.
  • the drinking-straw 5 is preferably of the bending type (see Fig. 1) so that its length may be greater than that of the can 1 in order to enable the consumer to drink the product to exhaustion when the straw is withdrawn from the can itself.
  • the invention attains the intended purposes.
