Definitions

  • the present Idea has, as object, a label to be applied on the packaging of foods to be frozen. It is constituted by a grid fixed to a base covered by a reservoir (or cover) containing a colored liquid, the whole is closed by a film or,a plate.
  • the task which intends this Idea is to offer to the producer and to the deep-frozen food reseller a valid and economic instrument to be applied on the packages of food on sale which grants to the consumer the continuity of the cold chain and allows him to verify this.
  • the liquid contained in the "defrosting detector label” is made by a mixture of water, alcohol and colouring agent.
  • the quantity of alcohol is in percentage on the mixture and changes depending from the desired freezing temperature degree, also the colouring agent quantity will be in varying percentage depending from the desired chromatic intensity.
  • the "defrosting detector label” is individually manufactured, it is preferably made in plastic.
  • the “defrosting detector label” is made by a grilled or net reservoir (fig. B 2 and fig. C 3 ), fixed to a flat base (fig. B 5 and fig. C 5 ) perforated in the center (fig. B 4 and fig. C 7 ).
  • Defrosting detector label as per the previous claims, where the unique body obtained by welding the reservoir on the base plate, can be obtained by mean of thermo plastic moulding, metal drawing or by mean of other systems which allow to obtain a sole object without intermediate assembling phases.
  • a cap o cover (fig. B 1 and fig. C 1 ) is applied with gaskets (fig. B 8 and fig. C 2 ) to the seat made in the base (fig. B 7 and fig. C 6 ).
  • a reservoir ( fig. D ) which, if reversed and kept in horizontal position can be filled with a mixture of water, alcohol and coloring agent (fig. D, 3 ).
  • the "defrosting detector label” can also be made with the reservoir containing the liquids divided in more compartments (fig. F 5 ) in this case the filling of each compartment, separated one from the other (fig. F 1, 2, 3, 4 ), will be made with single mixtures of different colours and different compositions (fig. G 1, 2, 3, 4 )
  • the containing cap on the mixture which covers the net reservoir, can be fixed to the base plate in hermetic way by mean of o-ring gasket, mounted on the cap rim (fig. B 8 and fig. C 2) and fixed to the plate by mean of a suitable groove (fig. B 7 and fig. C 6).
  • Another system could be using a base plate modified such a way to be shaped instead of flat ( fig. M 3) in this way it will be possible to apply the o-ring gasket on the external vertical rim ( fig. M 2 ) in order to allow the cap to be hermetically fixed to it ( fig. M 1 ) and allow to the sealing film or plate ( fig. M 4 ), to be welded to the underneath predisposed rim ( fig. M 6 ) to completely close the liquid entrance hole ( fig. M 5 ).
  • cap can be screwed by mean of a thread ( fig. N 1 and 2 ) which pressing on the shape opportunely predisposed on the base plat, allows its hermetic closure. Obviously in this case the cap will be removed by unscrewing it.
  • the cover or cap will be removed by pulling the suitable lever or tangs (fig. B 9 and fig. H 4) of the "defrosting detector label", in this way we will have the mixture ( water, alcohol and coloring agents) consolidated, or an icicle (fig. B 3, C 4 and H 3), kept by the grid ( fig. H 5) by which is made the grilled or net keeping reservoir (fig. B 2 , C 3 and D 2).
  • the liquid forming the mixture contained in the "defrosting detector label” can be composed also by mixtures different from those above indicated of other chemical/physical nature, but each one of them must necessarily have the feature of remaining liquid also at temperatures below centigrade zero and deep-freezing only from a settled temperature degrees and below.
  • the colors of the used liquids can be different from those above described and the defrosting temperatures can change in compliance with the needs.
  • the "defrosting detector label” can be made with only one reservoir containing only one liquid (fig.D), or with a reservoir with 2 or more compartments separately containing liquids, each one with a different color (fig. E ) and different defrosting point.
  • the “defrosting detector label” can also be composed by more reservoirs similar or different in shape and dimensions, put beside in order to make an unique body; each reservoir can contain a liquid different in color and kind of mixture with a different defrosting thermal degree, in compliance with the needs. (fig. L).
  • the material used for the building of the "defrosting detector label" (except for the liquid constituent the mixture ) can be plastic or similar, metal, glass, backed clay, or of any kind in nature and value, which allow its making, granting the above said features.
  • the shape, the sizes, the mixture colors and the way to apply the label can change in compliance with the needs requested by the user, settled the inventive concept.
