Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a containers' carrier, that is, a device designed to be used to carry a group of cups, soda cans, food containers, etc., that with a folding laminated structure, and with a disposable nature, allows it to be used as a carrying tray for both liquid and solid containers, and it lets joining multiple similar models to increase the transportation capacity and with its large outer area, as an advertising medium.
  • the device for the transportation of containers that the present memorandum proposes has been conceived to improve the characteristics of the models that are used nowadays for the transportation of cold and/or hot drinks as well as food recipients, presenting an outer surface from such characteristics that its use as an advertising medium would allow the production costs to be reduced so much that the device could be given free of charge to restaurants or cafés. This way the customers can carry the items they purchase to any place they wish, in a safe and comfortable manner, and at the same time displaying direct advertising.
  • the model that is described in the present memorandums is composed of a semi-rigid laminated element, pre-cut accordingly so, and by a simple, suitable, and improved folding process, we can configure a rectangular prismatic unit with circular holes in its upper surface that act as molds for the cups needed to be carried and, which sides are used as an advertising medium and the surface may carry assembling printed instructions, cup content indicator and insertions to carry spoons.
  • the model also has vertical flaps that are used to act as not only to hook the structure but to be also used to attach it to other containers' carrier units.
  • the drink carrier is formed by a laminated body in which are defined: two lateral sides (1), two frontal and back sides (2) that are folded to form the openings for the cups (3) and the model handle (4), multiple attaching and hooking flaps (5), slots for the hooking flaps (6), holes for the spoons (7), contour joining flaps (8), contour joining glue area (9), base joining area (10) over the area (11) and base union area (12) over the area (13).
  • the model as it is shown in figure 1 is obtained from the figure 2 plate. Making the union with an appropriate glue, of flap 9 with the union of the areas 10-11 and 12-13, the model can be folded until it shapes is like the one shown in figure 3, of a smaller surface and totally flat for its distribution.
  • the handles (4) have a perforated contour that folds in once the fingers press in to carry the model.
  • the horizontal surface that surrounds the cups openings (3) presents a square opening (7) where they can be introduced.
  • the width of the hooking slots (6) is designed to allow for the introduction of the attaching flap (5) of another model like the one in the present memory, so by having two models attached by the flap and slot we have a drink carrier for up to four drinks, as we see in figure 5.
  • the handle (4) that is shown in the figures presents an asymmetric disposition with respect to the frontal vertical axis, so it is recommended to attach the slot and flap of the two models with the openings of the closest models, as it is shown in figure 5, which facilitates transporting both models with the same hand.
  • An additional container that has a slot that is compatible with the attaching flap (5) as it is shown in figure 6, is possible to add to a combination of two carriers so it widens the options of carrying more items, as it is shown in figure 7.
  • the inner surface of the model carries imprinted information, of any kind, such as assembling instructions, ads, restaurant recipes, etc.
  • the outer surface may be used totally as an advertising medium.
