Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Getränkeflasche mit einer mittels eines durchstoßbaren Abdichtmittels, insbesondere eines Folienabschnitts, dicht verschlossenen Ausgießöffnung, wobei ein Flaschenverschluss mit in Verlängerung der Ausgießöffnung angeordnetem Öffnungselement vorgesehen ist, welches zum Zwecke der Öffnung der Getränkeflasche das Abdichtmittel bei axialer Druckbeaufschlagung in Richtung der Ausgießöffnung mittels eines Durchstoßmittels durchstößt, wobei das Durchstoßmittel auf der dem Abdichtmittel zugewandten Seite des Öffnungselements vorgesehen ist. Ferner betrifft die Erfindung ein System und ein Verfahren zur Erzeugung eines Mischgetränks.The invention relates to a beverage bottle with a pourable sealing means, in particular a film section, tightly closed pouring opening, wherein a bottle closure is provided with opening element arranged in extension of the pouring opening, which for sealing the opening of the beverage bottle by means of the axial pressurization in the direction of the pouring opening a piercing means penetrates, wherein the piercing means is provided on the side facing the sealing means of the opening element. Furthermore, the invention relates to a system and a method for producing a mixed beverage.
Erfrischungsgetränke verschiedener Art sowie Mischgetränke, vorzugsweise bestehend aus Säften und alkoholischen Getränken, erfreuen sich insbesondere bei einem jungen Publikum wachsender Beliebtheit. Auf dem Markt sind daher eine Vielzahl verschiedener Mischgetränke, bestehend aus Fruchtsäften oder Erfrischungsgetränken, die mit anderen Säften oder mit alkoholischen Getränken, wie beispielsweise Bier, Wein oder Spirituosen, gemischt sind, erhältlich. Soweit diese Getränke in Einweggetränkeverpackungen, kurz: Einwegflaschen, verkauft werden, unterliegen sie sämtlich der Pfandpflicht. In der Verpackungsverordnung ist in der derzeit gültigen Fassung eine Befreiung von der Pfandpflicht allein für Fruchtsäfte, Fruchtnektare mit einem Fruchtgehalt >50 %, Wein, Spirituosen und Milch in Einwegflaschen vorgesehen. Darüber hinaus sind nur noch Getränke in sogenannten "ökologisch vorteilhaften" Einwegverpackungen (Getränkekartons, Polyethylen-Schlauchbeutel, Folien-Standbodenbeutel, sowie diätetische Getränke im Sinne der Diätverordnung) von der Pfandpflicht befreit.Soft drinks of various kinds as well as mixed drinks, preferably consisting of juices and alcoholic drinks, are becoming increasingly popular with a young public. Therefore, a variety of mixed drinks consisting of fruit juices or soft drinks mixed with other juices or with alcoholic beverages such as beer, wine or spirits are available on the market. Insofar as these drinks are sold in disposable beverage packaging, in short: disposable bottles, they are all subject to the compulsory deposit. The current version of the Packaging Ordinance provides for an exemption from the compulsory deposit solely for fruit juices, fruit nectars with a fruit content> 50%, wine, spirits and milk in disposable bottles. In addition, only drinks in so-called "ecologically advantageous" disposable packaging (beverage cartons, polyethylene tube bags, foil stand-up pouches, and dietary drinks in the sense of diet regulation) exempted from the deposit.
Um nun nach dem eigenen Geschmack ein Mischgetränk genießen zu können, ohne hierfür Einwegpfand beim Kauf entrichten zu müssen, bietet es sich an, vom Einwegpfand befreite Einzelkomponenten, wie beispielsweise Fruchtsäfte oder Spirituosen, zu kaufen und diese anschließend zu mischen. Dies bietet darüber hinaus den Vorteil, dass durch den Einzelerwerb der gewünschten Misch-Komponenten eine große Vielfalt potentieller Mischgetränke zur Verfügung steht, die der Konsument selbst erzeugen kann. Nachteilig an dieser Vorgehensweise ist jedoch, dass der Konsument hierzu getrennt zwei Flaschen erwerben muss, deren Inhalt er in einem dritten Gefäß, beispielsweise einer Kanne oder einem Glas, mischen muss.In order to be able to enjoy a mixed drink according to one's own taste, without having to pay one-way deposit for the purchase, it makes sense to buy single-use liberated components, such as fruit juices or spirits, and then mix them. This also offers the advantage that the single purchase of the desired mixing components a large variety of potential mixed drinks is available, which can produce the consumer itself. A disadvantage of this approach, however, is that the consumer must separately purchase two bottles, the content of which he must mix in a third vessel, such as a jug or a glass.
In der
Ausgehend hiervon liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, geeignete Flaschen sowie ein System und ein Verfahren zur Erzeugung eines Mischgetränks anzugeben, welches die Erzeugung einer großen Vielfalt von Mischgetränken komfortabel und mit geringstem technischem Aufwand ermöglicht.Proceeding from this, the present invention seeks to provide suitable bottles and a system and a method for producing a mixed drink, which the Generating a wide variety of mixed drinks comfortably and with the least technical effort possible.
Die Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung mit einer Getränkeflasche nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 dadurch gelöst, dass auf der dem Durchstoßmittel abgewandten Seite des Öffnungselements wenigstens eine elastische Rastnase zur einrastenden Aufnahme eines Ausgieß- oder Trinkstutzens einer weiteren Flasche vorgesehen ist.The problem is solved according to the invention with a beverage bottle according to the preamble of
Das an der erfindungsgemäßen Flasche vorgesehene Öffnungselement erlaubt es, die zunächst hygienisch dicht verschlossene Flasche unter geringstem technischem Aufwand zu öffnen. Da zur Öffnung eine einfache axiale Bewegung erforderlich ist, kann dies beispielsweise mit dem Ausgieß- oder Trinkstutzen einer weiteren Flasche oder sogar mit dem Mund oder mit Hilfe eines anderen Gegenstandes erfolgen.The opening element provided on the bottle according to the invention makes it possible to open the initially hygienically sealed bottle with the least technical effort. Since a simple axial movement is required for the opening, this can be done for example with the pouring or drinking nozzle of another bottle or even with the mouth or with the help of another object.
Das Öffnungselement ist mit dem Durchstoßmittel zum Durchstoßen des Abdichtmittels - in der Praxis handelt es sich hierbei in der Regel um einen Folienabschnitt - ausgestattet. Das Durchstoßmittel kann verschieden geformt sein. Die Form eines Dorns ist ebenso möglich wie die Form einer linearen Schneide. Nach einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist das Durchstoßmittel jedoch als eine im Wesentlichen kreisförmig umlaufende Schneide ausgebildet. Hierdurch wird einerseits entlang der Schneide ein akkurater Schnitt erzeugt, andererseits wird durch die kreisförmig umlaufende Schneide eine große Fläche ausgeschnitten, so dass die Flasche nach dem Durchstoßen eine große nutzbare Öffnung aufweist. Bevorzugt bildet die kreisförmig umlaufende Schneide keinen Vollkreis, sondern spannt einen Winkel von lediglich ca. 270° auf, so dass ein Teil des Abdichtmittels, insbesondere der Folie, nicht ausgestanzt wird. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass sich das Abdichtmittel nicht vollständig von der Flasche löst und eventuell in diese hineinfällt.The opening element is equipped with the piercing means for piercing the sealing means - in practice this is usually a foil section. The piercing means may be shaped differently. The shape of a spike is just as possible as the shape of a linear cutting edge. According to a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, however, the piercing means is designed as a substantially circular peripheral cutting edge. As a result, an accurate cut along the cutting edge is generated on the one hand, on the other hand, a large area is cut out by the circular peripheral edge, so that the bottle has a large usable opening after piercing. Preferably, the circular peripheral cutting edge forms no full circle, but spans an angle of only about 270 °, so that a part of the sealing means, in particular the film, is not punched out. This has the advantage that the sealing means does not completely detach from the bottle and may fall into it.
Die Rastnase auf der dem Durchstoßmittel abgewandten Seite des Öffnungselements kann beispielsweise als Verlängerung des Ringansatzes ausgebildet sein. Durch das "Einrasten" des Trinkstutzens der weiteren Flasche wird eine sichere Verbindung zwischen beiden Flaschen insbesondere zum Zwecke der Erzeugung eines Mischgetränks hergestellt. Das als "Klicken" deutlich vernehmbare Einrasten des Ausgieß- oder Trinkstutzens der weiteren Flasche signalisiert dem Benutzer dabei in vorteilhafter Weise, dass er die Flaschen korrekt verbunden ist. Insbesondere bei der Verbindung beider Flaschen zum Zwecke der Erzeugung eines Mischgetränks erhöht das Klicken den ,,Spaßfaktor" für die jüngere Kundschaft.The locking lug on the side facing away from the piercing means of the opening element may for example be formed as an extension of the annular shoulder. By "snapping" the drinking nozzle of the other bottle a secure connection between the two bottles is made especially for the purpose of generating a mixed drink. The clearly audible as "click" locking the pouring or drinking nozzle of the other bottle signals to the user in an advantageous manner that he is correctly connected to the bottles. Especially with the connection of both bottles for the purpose of creating a mixed drink, the click increases the "fun factor" for the younger clientele.
Um ein besonders präzises Durchstoßen des Abdichtmittels zu ermöglichen, wird ferner bevorzugt, dass die Höhe der Schneide über ihre kreisförmige Erstreckung nicht konstant ist, sondern bevorzugt von einem Ende der Schneide zum anderen Ende hin kontinuierlich anwächst.In order to allow a particularly precise piercing of the sealing means, it is further preferred that the height of the cutting edge is not constant over its circular extent, but preferably grows continuously from one end of the cutting edge to the other end.
Das Öffnungselement selbst kann unterschiedliche Geometrien annehmen. Zweckmäßigerweise ist es als im Wesentlichen scheibenförmig mit einer im Wesentlichen zentral angeordneten Öffnung ausgebildet, wobei das Durchstoßmittel auf der dem Abdichtmittel zugewandten Seite vorgesehen ist. Hierdurch weist es eine einfache und kostengünstig herzustellende Geometrie auf. Ist das Durchstoßmittel als umlaufende Schneide ausgebildet, so umgibt diese bevorzugt die im Wesentlichen zentral angeordnete Öffnung des scheibenförmigen Öffnungselements, so dass der in der Flasche enthaltene Inhalt nach Durchstoßen des Abdichtmittels durch die Öffnung aus der Flasche austreten kann. Ferner kann das scheibenförmige Öffnungselement wenigstens ein axial ausgerichtetes, an dem äußeren Rand der Ausgießöffnung der Flasche abgestütztes Federelement aufweisen. Hierdurch ist gewährleistet, dass das Öffnungselement nach Durchstoßen des Abdichtmittels in seine Ausgangsstellung zurückkehrt. Das wenigstens eine Federelement selbst kann beispielsweise als ein teilweise gebogener Steg ausgebildet sein, welcher sich bei axialer Druckbeaufschlagung stärker durchbiegt und sich nach Entlastung des scheibenförmigen Öffnungselements wieder entspannt.The opening element itself can assume different geometries. Conveniently, it is designed as a substantially disc-shaped with a substantially centrally disposed opening, wherein the piercing means is provided on the side facing the sealing means. As a result, it has a simple and inexpensive to produce geometry. If the puncture means is designed as a circumferential cutting edge, then it preferably surrounds the essentially centrally arranged opening of the disc-shaped Opening element, so that the contents contained in the bottle can escape from the bottle after piercing the sealing means through the opening. Furthermore, the disc-shaped opening element can have at least one axially aligned spring element supported on the outer edge of the pouring opening of the bottle. This ensures that the opening element returns to its initial position after piercing the sealing means. The at least one spring element itself may be formed, for example, as a partially bent web, which bends more at axial pressurization and relaxes after relieving the disk-shaped opening element again.
Nach einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist das scheibenförmige Öffnungselement auf der dem Durchstoßmittel abgewandten Seite einen Ringansatz auf, der seinerseits eine teilweise konisch zulaufende Außenfläche aufweisen kann. Der nach außen weisende Ringansatz ermöglicht es beispielsweise, das Durchstoßen des Abdichtmittels über einen in den Ringansatz einzuführenden Gegenstand, beispielsweise den Ausgießstutzen einer weiteren Flasche, der dann das Öffnungselement mit axialem Druck beaufschlagt, präzise auszulösen.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the disk-shaped opening element on the side facing away from the piercing means on a ring approach, which in turn may have a partially tapered outer surface. The outwardly facing annular projection allows, for example, the penetration of the sealing means via an introduced into the ring approach object, for example, the Ausgießstutzen another bottle, which then acts on the opening element with axial pressure to trigger precisely.
Um das axial bewegliche Öffnungselement präzise zu führen und ferner das Öffnungsmittel und die Flaschenöffnung gegen Verschmutzung zu schützen und der Flasche insgesamt ein ästhetischeres Aussehen zu verleihen, kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Flasche eine die Ausgießöffnung umgebende Führungshülse umfasst, welche die axiale Relativbewegung zwischen des Öffnungselement und der Ausgießöffnung der Flasche führt, wobei das Abdichtmittel durchstoßen wird.In order to precisely guide the axially movable orifice member and also to protect the orifice means and the bottle orifice from contamination and to give the bottle a more aesthetic appearance overall, it may be provided that the bottle comprises a guide sleeve surrounding the pouring orifice which controls the axial relative movement between the opening element and the pouring opening of the bottle, wherein the sealing means is pierced.
Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist darüber hinaus vorgesehen, dass die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene wenigstens eine elastische Rastnase ein an der Innenfläche der Führungshülse abgestütztes Federelement umfasst, um eine bessere Rückfederung der Rastnase zu ermöglichen.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is also provided that the inventively provided at least one elastic locking lug comprises a supported on the inner surface of the guide sleeve spring element to allow a better spring back of the locking lug.
Die Führungshülse kann ferner eine innere Schulter zur Abstützung des Öffnungselements aufweisen. Eine weitere Ausgestaltung sieht vor, dass die Führungshülse an ihrem flaschenabgewandten Ende einen konisch nach innen zulaufenden Randbereich aufweist. Ferner kann die Führungshülse an ihrem flaschenabgewandten Ende aus hygienischen Gründen bevorzugt mit einer Schutzfolie verschlossen sein.The guide sleeve may further comprise an inner shoulder for supporting the opening element. A further embodiment provides that the guide sleeve has a conically inwardly tapering edge region at its end facing away from the bottle. Furthermore, the guide sleeve can preferably be closed at its end facing away from the bottle for reasons of hygiene with a protective film.
