The lug is placed around the bottle neck so that the elastic material piece is attached to the bottle.

Description

Die gegenständliche Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zum tropfenfreien Ausgießen von Flüssigkeiten aus Flaschen bestehend aus einem elastischen Materialstück, welches zu einer Hülse einrollbar ist, welche in den Flaschenhals einsetzbar ist, wobei sie an dessen Innenfläche zur Anlage kommt und deren außen befindliche Berandung eine Abrisskante für die aus der Flasche ausfließende Flüssigkeit bildet.The subject invention relates to a device for drop-free pouring of liquids from bottles consisting of an elastic piece of material which can be rolled into a sleeve, which is insertable into the neck of the bottle, where it comes to rest on the inner surface and whose outside boundary has a trailing edge for the forms out of the bottle effluent.

Eine derartige Einrichtung ist z.B. aus der EP 560777 B1 bekannt. Es handelt sich dabei um ein elastisch verformbares Materialstück, welches mit einer flüssigkeitsabweisenden Oberfläche ausgebildet ist und welches zu einer Hülse einrollbar ist, die in den Hals einer Flasche, aus welcher eine Flüssigkeit entnommen werden soll, z.B. in eine Weinflasche, einsetzbar ist. Dabei kommt aufgrund der Elastizität des Materialstückes die Außenfläche der Hülse an die Innenfläche des Flaschenhalses zur dichten Anlage und bildet die außerhalb der Flasche befindliche Berandung der Hülse für die aus der Flasche austretende Flüssigkeit eine Abrisskante, wodurch ein tropfenfreies Beenden des Ausgießvorganges ermöglicht wird.Such a device is for example from the EP 560777 B1 known. It is an elastically deformable piece of material which is formed with a liquid-repellent surface and which can be rolled into a sleeve which can be inserted into the neck of a bottle from which a liquid is to be taken, for example into a wine bottle. Due to the elasticity of the piece of material, the outer surface of the sleeve to the inner surface of the bottle neck for tight contact and forms the outside of the bottle edge of the sleeve for the liquid emerging from the bottle a tear-off, whereby a drip-free termination of the pouring is possible.

Bekannte derartige als Ausgießer bezeichnete Einrichtungen stellen Massenartikel dar, welche mit geringen Kosten erzeugt werden. In der Regel werden diese Ausgießer einzeln verpackt und derart in den Handel gebracht. Dabei verursacht die Verpackung solche Kosten, welche die Kosten der Herstellung überschreiten.Known such devices referred to as spouts are mass-produced, which are produced at low cost. As a rule, these spouts are individually packaged and sold in this way. The packaging causes such costs, which exceed the cost of production.

Insoweit als derartige Ausgießer in Haushalten verwendet werden, werden sie nur in geringer Stückzahl benötigt. Insoweit jedoch als derartige Ausgießer in Gastronomiebetrieben verwendet werden, wird für jede Flasche von Wein ein gesonderter Ausgießer verwendet. Da somit in Gastronomiebetrieben an derartigen Ausgießern ein sehr großer Bedarf besteht, ist es zweckmäßig, diese in einer großen Stückzahl zu verpacken, wodurch maßgebliche Kosteneinsparungen bewirkt werden.Insofar as such spouts are used in households, they are needed only in small numbers. However, insofar as such spouts are used in catering establishments, a separate spout is used for each bottle of wine. Since there is a very great need for such spouts in catering establishments, it is expedient to pack them in large numbers, which results in significant cost savings.

Allerdings besteht in der Folge in Gastronomiebetrieben das Erfordernis, dem Gast zugleich mit dem Servieren einer Weinflasche auch einen Ausgießer zur Verfügung zu stellen. Sofern dieser Ausgießer verpackt ist, ist dies ohne Schwierigkeiten möglich. Sofern jedoch dieser Ausgießer deshalb unverpackt ist, weil er einer Packung mit einer großen Stückzahl entnommen worden ist, muss ein Weg gefunden werden, um den Ausgießer stilgerecht an den Gast zu übergeben.However, there is in the consequence in catering establishments the requirement to provide the guest with the serving of a wine bottle and a spout at the disposal. If this spout is packed, this is possible without difficulty. However, if this spout is therefore unpacked because it has been taken from a pack with a large number of pieces, a way must be found to pass the spout stylishly to the guest.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass das Materialstück längs eines Teiles seiner Berandung mit einem Schnitt ausgebildet ist, wodurch eine Lasche gebildet ist, welche um den Flaschenhals legbar ist, wodurch das Materialstück auf der Flasche befestigbar ist. Aufgrund dieser Ausbildung kann der nicht verpackte Ausgießer z.B. an einer Weinflasche befestigt und hierdurch mit dieser dem Gast übergeben werden.This object is achieved in that the piece of material along a part of its boundary is formed with a cut, whereby a tab is formed, which can be laid around the neck of the bottle, whereby the piece of material on the bottle can be fastened. Due to this design, the unpackaged spout may e.g. attached to a wine bottle and thereby be handed over to the guest with this.

Vorzugsweise erstreckt sich der Schnitt parallel zur Berandung des Materialstückes, wobei er eine Länge von 20% bis 50% der Berandung des Materialstückes aufweisen kann. Weiters sind vorzugsweise die an den Enden der Lasche zwischen dieser und dem verbleibenden Materialstück befindlichen Bereiche mit Sollbruchstellen ausgebildet, längs welcher die Lasche vom verbleibenden Materialstück leicht abgetrennt werden kann. Hierdurch kann der Ausgießer in einfacher Weise von der Flasche gelöst werden. Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist die Lasche eine Breite von 0.5 mm bis 2 mm auf.Preferably, the cut extends parallel to the boundary of the piece of material, wherein it may have a length of 20% to 50% of the boundary of the piece of material. Furthermore, the areas located at the ends of the tab between this and the remaining piece of material are preferably formed with predetermined breaking points, along which the tab can be easily separated from the remaining piece of material. As a result, the spout can be easily detached from the bottle. According to a preferred embodiment, the tab has a width of 0.5 mm to 2 mm.

Ein besonderer Vorteil eines derartigen Ausgießers besteht auch darin, dass er mit einem Aufdruck versehen sein kann, wodurch er zudem entweder als Werbeträger oder nach Art eines Anhängers dazu verwendet werden kann, mit Informationen über das Produkt, insbesondere über den betreffenden Wein, versehen zu sein.A particular advantage of such a spout is also that it may be provided with an imprint, whereby it can also be used either as an advertising medium or in the manner of a trailer to be provided with information about the product, in particular about the wine in question ,

Gemäß einer bevorzugten ersten Ausführungsform ist das Materialstück als Rechteck mit einem davon quer abragenden Fortsatz ausgebildet, dessen Breite etwas größer ist als der äußere Durchmesser eines Flaschenhalses, wobei dieser Fortsatz an seinem freien Ende etwa halbkreisförmig ausgebildet ist und sich der Schnitt längs der Berandung des Fortsatzes erstreckt, wodurch die Lasche mit einem etwa halbringförmigen Bereich ausgebildet ist, mit welchem sie an den Flaschenhals zur Anlage kommt. Bei dieser Ausbildung umschließt die Lasche den Flaschenhals.According to a preferred first embodiment, the piece of material is formed as a rectangle with a transversely projecting projection whose width is slightly larger than the outer diameter of a bottle neck, said extension is formed at its free end approximately semicircular and the section along the boundary of the extension extends, whereby the tab is formed with an approximately semi-annular region, with which it comes to rest on the bottleneck. In this training, the tab encloses the bottleneck.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten zweiten Ausführungsform ist das Materialstück als Rechteck mit einem davon abragenden Fortsatz ausgebildet, wobei der Fortsatz angenähert als Dreieck ausgebildet ist, dessen Basis die gleiche Länge wie das Rechteck aufweist sowie welches gegenüber der Basis abgerundet ist, und wobei sich weiters der Schnitt längs der freien Berandung des Fortsatzes erstreckt, wodurch die Lasche mit einem bogenförmigen Bereich ausgebildet ist, mit welchem sie an den Flaschenhals zur Anlage kommt. Auch bei dieser Ausbildung umschließt die Lasche den Flaschenhals.According to a preferred second embodiment, the piece of material is formed as a rectangle with a projection projecting therefrom, wherein the extension is approximately formed as a triangle whose base has the same length as the rectangle and which is rounded off from the base, and further wherein the section along the free boundary of the extension extends, whereby the tab is formed with an arcuate portion with which it comes to the bottleneck to the plant. Also in this training, the flap encloses the bottleneck.

FIG.4 sowie FIGS.4a
eine Flasche, an welcher dieser Ausgießer befestigt ist, in gegenüber FIG.3 verkleinertem Maßstab, gleichfalls in zwei unterschiedlichen Ansichten.
The object of the invention is explained below with reference to two embodiments illustrated in the drawings. Show it:
FIG.1
a first embodiment of a spout invention, in plan view and in approximately natural size, the
FIG.2 and FIG.2a
a bottle to which this spout is attached, in opposite FIG.1 reduced scale, in two different views,
FIG.3
a second embodiment of a spout according to the invention, in plan view and in approximately natural size, and the
FIG.4 and FIGS.4a
a bottle to which this spout is attached, in opposite FIG.3 reduced scale, also in two different views.

In FIG.1 ist ein erster Ausgießer 1 dargestellt, welcher durch ein Materialstück gebildet ist, welches einen angenähert rechteckigen Bereich 11 und einen davon im rechten Winkel abragenden Fortsatz 12 aufweist, wobei der Fortsatz 12 an seinem freien Ende mit einer halbkreisförmigen Berandung ausgebildet ist. Dieser Ausgießer 1 besteht aus einer steifelastischen Folie aus Aluminium, welche beidseitig mit Polyester beschichtet ist und welche eine Dicke von etwa 0.15 mm aufweist. Zu seiner bestimmungsgemäßen Verwendung wird dieser Ausgießer 1 zu einer Hülse zusammengerollt und mit dem Bereich 11 in die Mündung einer Flasche eingesetzt, wobei sich der Fortsatz 12 außerhalb der Flasche befindet. Durch die scharfkantige Berandung des Fortsatzes 12 wird eine Abrisskante gebildet, durch welche ein tropfenfreies Beenden der Ausgießvorgänge gewährleistet wird.In FIG.1 a first spout 1 is shown, which is formed by a piece of material which has an approximately rectangular portion 11 and one thereof projecting at right angles projection 12, wherein the extension 12 is formed at its free end with a semicircular boundary. This spout 1 consists of a stiff-elastic foil made of aluminum, which is coated on both sides with polyester and which has a thickness of about 0.15 mm. For its intended use of this spout 1 is rolled into a sleeve and used with the area 11 in the mouth of a bottle, wherein the extension 12 is outside the bottle. Due to the sharp edges of the extension 12, a spoiler edge is formed by which a drip-free termination of the pouring operations is ensured.

Der Fortsatz 12 weist eine Breite auf, welche etwas größer ist als der äußere Durchmesser des Flaschenhalses. Weiters ist der Ausgießer 1 längs der Berandung des freien Endes des Fortsatzes 12 mit einem parallel zu dieser Berandung verlaufenden Schnitt 2 ausgebildet, wodurch eine Lasche 3 gebildet ist, welche vom Ausgießer 1 wegbiegbar ist, sodass dieser mittels dieser Lasche 3 an einer Weinflasche 4 dadurch befestigt werden kann, dass die Lasche 3 über den Flaschenhals 41 gesetzt wird, wie dies in den FIG.2 und FIG.2a dargestellt ist. Auf diese Weise kann der Ausgießer 1 in attraktiver Weise zugleich mit einer Weinflasche 4 einem Gast übergeben werden, wodurch er nicht verpackt zu sein braucht. Da somit keine Verpackung erforderlich ist, wird eine maßgebliche Einsparung erzielt.The extension 12 has a width which is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the bottle neck. Furthermore, the spout 1 along the boundary of the free end of the extension 12 is formed with a parallel to this boundary extending section 2, whereby a tab 3 is formed, which is weggebiegbar from the spout 1, so that this means of this tab 3 on a wine bottle 4 therethrough can be fixed, that the tab 3 is placed over the bottle neck 41, as shown in the FIG.2 and FIG.2a is shown. In this way, the spout 1 can be handed over to a guest in an attractive way at the same time with a wine bottle 4, whereby he does not need to be packed. Since no packaging is required, a significant saving is achieved.

Um den Ausgießer 1 in einfacher Weise von der Flasche 4 lösen zu können, sind diejenigen Bereiche, in welchen die Lasche 3 in den Bereich 11 übergeht, mit Sollbruchstellen 31 ausgebildet, längs welcher der Ausgießer 1 von der Lasche 3 leicht abgetrennt werden kann.In order to solve the spout 1 in a simple manner from the bottle 4, those areas in which the tab 3 merges into the region 11, with predetermined breaking points 31 are formed, along which the spout 1 can be easily separated from the tab 3.

Ein derartiger Ausgießer 1 kann zudem mit einem Aufdruck versehen sein, welcher entweder zu Werbezwecken dient oder welcher nach Art eines Anhängers als Information über das in der Weinflasche enthaltene Produkt, wie Angaben über den Wein, dient.Such a spout 1 can also be provided with an imprint, which either serves for advertising purposes or which serves as a trailer as information about the product contained in the wine bottle, such as information about the wine.

Durch einen erfindungsgemäßen Ausgießer werden somit einerseits maßgebliche Einsparungen erzielt. Andererseits kann ein erfindungsgemäßer Ausgießer als Werbeträger bzw. als Informationsträger verwendet werden.Significant savings are thus achieved on the one hand by a spout according to the invention. On the other hand, a spout according to the invention can be used as an advertising medium or as an information carrier.

Der in Fig.3 dargestellte Ausgießer 1a unterscheidet sich vom Ausgießer 1 gemäß FIG.1 nur dadurch, dass an den angenähert rechteckigen Bereich 11a ein angenähert dreieckiger Fortsatz 12a anschließt, dessen Basis die gleiche Länge wie der angenähert rechteckige Bereich 11a aufweist, wobei dessen der Basis gegenüberliegende Kante gleichfalls abgerundet ist.The in Figure 3 illustrated spout 1a differs from the spout 1 according to FIG.1 only in that the approximately rectangular area 11a is adjoined by an approximately triangular extension 12a, the base of which has the same length as the approximately rectangular area 11a, its base opposite edge being likewise rounded.

Auch dieser Fortsatz 12a ist mit einem parallel zu dessen Berandung verlaufenden Schnitt 2a ausgebildet, wodurch eine Lasche 3a gebildet ist, welche vom Ausgießer 1a wegbiegbar ist, sodass dieser mittels dieser Lasche 3a an einer Weinflasche 4 dadurch befestigt werden kann, dass er über den Flaschenhals 41 gesetzt wird, wie dies in den FIG.4 und FIG.4a dargestellt ist. Auch dieser Ausgießer 1a ist in denjenigen Bereichen, in welchen die Lasche 3a in den Bereich 11 übergeht, mit Sollbruchlinien 31a ausgebildet, längs welcher der Ausgießer 1a von der Lasche 3a leicht abtrennbar ist.This extension 12a is also formed with a section 2a extending parallel to its boundary, whereby a tab 3a is formed, which can be bent away from the spout 1a so that it can be fastened by means of this tab 3a to a wine bottle 4 by passing it over the bottleneck 41 is set, as in the FIG.4 and FIG.4a is shown. Also, this spout 1a is formed in those areas in which the tab 3a merges into the region 11 with predetermined breaking lines 31a, along which the spout 1a is easily separated from the tab 3a.

Ansonsten weist der Ausgießer 1a die gleiche Ausbildung, analoge Merkmale und die gleiche Funktion wie der Ausgießer gemäß FIG.1 auf.Otherwise, the spout 1a has the same construction, analogous characteristics and the same function as the spout according to FIG.1 on.
