  • the support arms 112 When inserting the holding device 100 into the container can the support arms 112 then preferably so be compressed radially inwardly that they can be introduced through the slightly conical end 203 of the container can into the interior of the container can and then move slightly biased by the bias radially outward and rest against the conical end 203 of the container can.
  • the shape of the second ends 112b of the support arms 112 is preferably adapted to the conical shape of the retracted end 203 of the container can.
  • the holding device 100 has a shape that limits a translational movement between the holding device 100 and the container can in the axial direction. This is achieved in the embodiment shown here in that on the one hand the second ends 112b of the support arms 112 abut against the retracted open end 203 of the container can from the inside and on the other hand, the second ends 122b of the support arms 122 are arranged at or near the bottom 202 of the container can. In this way, the container can also be handled overhead, for example, during a washing process, without the holding device 100 could fall out of the open container box.
  • the shape of the retainer 100 further prevents or restricts translational movement in the radial direction relative to the container can, so that the retainer 100 maintains a substantially concentric arrangement within the container can.
  • the container can with a holding device 100 is preferably filled with a beverage or other medium before a lid 300 is placed on the open container can and is connected to the open, retracted end 203 of the container can by producing a hem flange to a closed beverage can 400.
  • the latching connection between the two connecting sections 111, 121 is achieved by a movement of the two parts 110, 120 relative to one another in the direction of a longitudinal axis of a container can. This relative movement is generated by a pressure in the axial direction on the holding device 100, which is applied to the holding device 100 when placing the lid 300. This pressure arises because the core bead 301 of the lid 300 protrudes into the interior of the container can during and after placing the lid 300 on the container can.
  • the space available in the axial direction for the holding device 100 is limited, so that the core bead 301 in contact with the second ends 112b of the support arms 112 of the part 110 exerts pressure in a substantially axial direction on the holding device 100 and thereby the latching connection between the connection parts 111, 121 is released and thus the holding device 100 is activated.
  • the activated state of the holding device 100 is in the FIGS. 4 and 5 which differ in that in FIG. 4 the lid 300 is closed and in FIG. 5 a drinking opening 302 of the lid 300 is opened, so that the straw 130 with its portion 131 can emerge from the drinking opening 302.
  • Both parts 110, 120 are in principle free to move by releasing the connection between them, ie in the interior of the beverage can 400 relative to each other and relative to the beverage can 400 movable in the limits set by the closed container with a lid 300 can.
  • the second part 120 is still limited in particular in a translational movement substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the beverage can 400, since the portion 131 of the straw 130 protrudes in the direction of the lid 300 via the connecting portion 121 of the part 120, to the closed lid 300 abuts and therefore prevents or limits movement of the part 120 in the direction of the cover 300.
  • the part 120 has a lower density than a filling medium, for example a beverage, with which the container can is filled during a filling process.
  • a filling medium for example a beverage
  • the density of the part 120 is adapted to the filling medium such that the part 120 in the filling medium also floats with the straw 130 attached to the connecting section 121.
  • the closed beverage can 400 by a user for example by handling an opening element
  • the straw 130 is arranged to match a drinking opening 302 in the lid 300
  • the first portion 131 of the straw 130 through the drinking opening 302 in the lid 300 and exit thus prevents no more translational movement of the part 120 relative to the beverage can 400, so that the part 120 together with the attached straw 130 in the beverage can 400 and thus the portion 131 of the straw 130 can escape from the beverage can 400, as in FIG. 5 shown.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 an example of a straw 130 for a previously described holding device in a previously described beverage can is shown.
  • This straw 130's FIGS. 6 and 7 is characterized in that the drinking end 134 is closed in the axial direction of the straw by a rounded tip 136 and has two radial openings 135.
  • the drinking end 134 is the end of the straw 130 which is disposed on the portion 131 of the straw 130 and, in the insertion state, is disposed in a closed beverage can near the lid.
  • the drinking end 134 exits the beverage can through a drinking opening, allowing a consumer to consume the beverage through the radial openings 135
  • the two radial or lateral drinking openings 135 are opposite each other and are formed oval. As viewed from the longitudinal axis of the straw 130, they are arranged in the radial direction in the side wall of the straw 130. Through the radial opening 135, a consumer can safely and easily remove a drink.
