Definitions

  • the present invention regards the field of packagings for containing products composed of at least three components to be kept separately up to the moment of usage and, particularly the sector of packagings for containing food products.
  • the invention may be used to realise the coating of meat, fish or vegetables with bread crumbs or flour mixture for further cooking.
  • US 7163102 discloses a disposable food packaging according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • these packagings contain bags with mix for bread crumbs and shaker bags in which the products to be coated with bread crumbs and the mix mentioned before are introduced and shaked together.
  • the object of the present invention is to make available a packaging according to claim 1 which allows mainly to:
  • the packaging is constituted by a container (1), provided with a lateral wall (2) which terminates with an edge (3), and by a base (4), partially holed and closed in the bottom by a film (5), generally of plastic material, joined by means of thermowelding or some other available technique to the flat surface (6) of inferior relieved edge (7).
  • Said inferior relieved edge (7) and said film (5) concur to delimit, on the part of the base surface (4) opposite to the opening of the container (1), a bay (8) in correspondence of the holed part and a further separated bay (9) in correspondence of the solid part, in which different accessories, not shown here, can be located (absorbing paper, pliers for baked products, ecc.) and in which the filming that closes said bay (9) keeping said accessories, can be uncoupled without removing the part of the film which closes the bay (8) corresponding to the holed portion.
  • a hole (10) is made in the base surface (4) of said container (1) .
  • the dispenser (11) constituted by a lateral wall (13) in which the windows (14, 15) are opening is introduced.
  • the lateral wall (13) terminates with a flanged edge (16) on which, at the end of the packaging, the same upper-sealing film (17) which closes the container (1) in correspondence of its flanged edge (3) is made adhere.
  • the container (1) and the dispenser (11) define the main compartment (18).
  • a mobile base (12) is present.
  • a clutch (19) is placed and in its correspondence, on the convex side, a button-handle (20) is placed, which function will be explained later.
  • the element (21) is placed inside the dispenser (11) . From its base a clutch (22), complementary to the clutch (19) starts. Said clutch is placed on the mobile base (12) of the dispenser (11), to which it joints in a particular phase of packaging usage, as it will be clear below.
  • a compartment (23) is defined in which the component, normally fluid, is placed which is first to be united with the product present in the main compartment (18).
  • the element (21) defines, on its turn, a compartment (24) which should contain, for instance, the bread crumbs.
  • the dispenser (11) is inserted, by means of a sealed joint, into the hole (10) of the base surface (4) of the container (1), while in other embodiments of the invention it is still possible to realize the dispenser (11) directly in a unique block with the container (1), or insert it into the container (1), in phase of usage, by means of a coupling hole (10).
  • a component (normally fluid) for the compartment (23) is introduced and after that it passes to place the element (21) pushing it, as necessary, inside, the dispenser (11).
  • the compartment (24) is filled and finally the container (1) is sealed by the film (17) adhered in the same time, by means of thermowelding or other known technique, to the flanged edge (3) of the container (1) and to the flanged edge (16) of the dispenser (11).
  • FIG 3a the section of the packaging according to one particular application, when, in the usage phase the mobile base (12) together with the element (21) is completely pushed by the user inside the packaging, discovering, without opening before the packaging itself, the windows (14) of the lateral wall (13) of the dispenser (11), capable to make communicate the compartments (23) and (18) is shown.
  • the use previews that in this phase the packaging should be put upside down on a rigid plain to assure that when the pressure applied by the user to the mobile base (12) is transmitted to the sliding element (21) this latter can not move over some certain position which in this case is the position in which the superior edge (29) of the compartment (24) meets the said rigid plain.
  • This is to assure that in this phase the clutch (19) couples in a sufficiently stable way with the complementary clutch (22).
  • Said coupling can also be realized as it is shown in figure 3b .
  • the horns (30), present on the lateral wall of the sliding element (21), interfere with the edge (31) of the windows (15) of the lateral wall (13) of the dispenser (11), assuring (for the same scope as described in the embodiment shown in fig. 3a ) that said sliding element (21) can not move over the position delimited by this interference.
  • Figure 4 shows how, using the hooking between the complementary clutches (19, 22), is possible, pulling the button-handle (20) placed on the mobile base (12), to push in the same direction the element (21) too. Acting so, the opening of the windows (15) of the lateral wall (13) of the dispenser (11) is determined, so that by overturning and shaking the packaging, the component of the compartment (24) may pass into the compartment (18) and complete the product preparation.
  • the container (1) Once the container (1) is open, it will be possible to pour out the product, for example, in a pot, from the side (32) specifically previewed. During this operation the band (33) of the base surface (4) will obstacle the excess of bread crumbs in the bay (8) to pass out of the said bay when the container will be inclined enough to allow to pour out the product.
  • the absorbing paper present in the bay (9) and not shown here, can be opportunely conformed to be supported by the emptied container (1), in order to be able to use it for dripping the fried product, using also, for a better result, the presence of the holed portion of the base surface (4).
  • the mobile base (12) and the element (21) can be joined forming a piston which moves inside the dispenser (11).
  • the mobile base (12) is inserted, the compartment (23) is filled, the element (21) is inserted, the compartment (24) is filled.
  • This latter is provided not only by the superior opening, in this case closed by a proper autonomous closure element, but also by lateral openings, temporarily closed by the portions of the wall (13) of the dispenser (11) with which said lateral openings contact.
  • the mobile base (12) is pushed and, opening the windows (14), the compartment (23) communicates with the compartment (18), to proceed to the scattering of the liquid content into the compartment (23) on the product contained in the compartment (18).
  • the compartment (24) communicates with the compartment (18), to proceed to the definitive coating of the product with bread crumbs.
