Definitions

  • the present invention belongs to the field of funeral articles, and more particularly cinerary urns.
  • Its object is a funeral urn adapted to the perpetuation of memory, which includes, in addition to the receptacle for the collection of ashes, independent internal compartments, particularly adapted to the preservation of identity and one of which has a window to the 'outside.
  • the originality of the present invention consists in the creation of an urn capable of containing the ashes and comprising means for retaining a material identification support of the deceased, this support allowing a concretion of the memory and a perpetual and timeless traceability of that here, as well as the identification of his ashes. It allows to maintain a symbolic link with the deceased and to honor his memory, to identify him to accompany and find him.
  • a funeral urn comprising, in addition to the receptacle for receiving the ashes, several compartments that provide complementary functions. It is a question of one being able to introduce in the ballot box, on the one hand identification data of the deceased, and on the other hand objects or pieces materializing the memory of the deceased.
  • One of the compartments is intended to contain emotionally charged memories or for which some intimacy is required, whereas the other compartment is intended to identify the deceased person by a coded element or by any other means authorized by law.
  • a first compartment has a window with an opening to the outside and can present an image, a photograph, an epitaph, or other, which is visible to all, while a second compartment is totally closed.
  • the first compartment may in particular receive pieces with personalized data, apparent from the window, such as a drawing representing a portrait, an ideal, a memory, or a text, for example a poem, a marital status indication, a message or other.
  • the second compartment can for example receive a room, previously marked with a code, which will be deposited pending at the time of cremation, and then remain with the ashes, thus creating a symbolic link and allowing at the same time an identification of the ashes, whatever their fate later.
  • This same code can also be affixed to the part of the first compartment.
  • These parts which can advantageously be in the form of ceramic plates, include personalized data relating to the deceased.
  • These data having among other functions, that of allowing the identification of the person whose ashes are conserved, it is desirable that they bring at least essential information of his civil status in natural language. Beyond that, it is always possible to choose the data that one wishes to see written on this plate. They can for example imitate the page of an official document of the passport type, with or without a photo, or reproduce the signature of the deceased, an extract of one of his letters, or combine several types of said information.
  • it may also include coded data, as well as the address of a website listing the identification data and codes, and also to receive information about the deceased on a dedicated thematic site.
  • the urn subject of the present application is in particular designed to contain a timeless identification passport as described in the application.
  • FR 09 02061 it is desired to be able to place in the second compartment an identification and memory device, comprising for example two ceramic plates (or other), maintained fixed back to back, so that the first plate constitutes the front of the device and the second plate constitutes a back of said device.
  • the plates can be of any shape, for example rectangular, in the format of a postcard or an identity document such as a passport.
  • the plates are held together by an adhesive material occupying the entire length of the edge of the plates, so that the gap between the two plates is a permanently closed space able to receive a memory object between the plates, hair for example or a material representing the deceased.
  • the device is sealed, and it is not possible to recover the contents, without there being rape.
  • the urns according to the invention are monoblocks with a lid or a bottom for the introduction of ashes, everything is internal.
  • the material used is treated steel that can withstand its forms at high pressures.
  • the central compartment of the urn serving as an ash receptacle is without contact with the additional compartments provided for identification, and all are individually secured.
  • the compartment window opening to the outside is provided for an externally visible incorporated identification. She has no communication with another compartment.
  • the compartments are all independent without communication. However a variant of urn is provided, without external window, for families who opt for an urn fully closed. A metal identification plate would then be attached to the ballot box, as required by law.
  • the access to the different compartments is independent of access to the receptacle containing the ashes.
  • This receptacle is preferably hermetically sealed and can only be opened by special tools. Indeed, it is essential that the ashes are enclosed and isolated strictly from the outside environment, including items contained in the compartments of the ballot box. The compartments must also open and close independently of the receptacle, in order to avoid accident or mishandling of the ashes.
  • the compartments are also intended to be closed independently of one another, in order to access one or the other if desired, but without this being done easily, inadvertently or mechanically. It will not be possible in particular, to proceed to their manual opening, a suitable tool that must be used.
  • the second compartment will be closed and housed inside the ballot box, so that once the compartment closed, we can not access its contents, either visually or by contact, without a voluntary operation. disassembly or unscrewing.
  • the first compartment will be closed so that we can not remove the content, but that it is, at least in part, visible from the outside.
  • the structure of the funeral urn object of the present invention meets all the requirements set out above.
  • the present invention relates to a funeral urn comprising a receptacle, having an orifice for the introduction of ash, with side walls, a bottom wall and an upper wall, said bottom wall constituting a removable bottom or said upper wall constituting a removable cover cooperating with said receptacle to close the urn, said urn further comprising first and second inner compartments each having an independent access means one the other and distinct from the ash introduction port, the first compartment being provided with a window to the outside, and the second compartment being completely obscured.
