Description

  • The present invention relates to a bottle for sports use.
  • In particular, the present invention relates to a bottle which allows to be marked in a simple and precise manner, in particular by allowing to mark a plurality of such bottles in a uniform way even tracing on the reference marks by hand.
  • Nowadays, there are many sports made up of teams in which a group of bottles are used for a plurality of athletes of the same team.
  • The Bottles of same team are generally of the same shape and color and therefore, they are not distinguishable one from the other.
  • Each athlete tends to mark his or her bottle, for example, by writing his name or his unique identification number.
  • This generates non-uniformity in the overall appearance of the group of bottles as each has a different style in which it is marked.
  • Exemple of beverage bottle provided with identifiable marks printed thereon are e.g. disclosed in US 2013/056482 or CN 2825526 . In particular document US 2013/056482 discloses a beverage bottle according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • WO 2017019127 A1 is an International patent application claiming a priority date earlier than - but published after - the date of priority of the present application. Such document discloses a blow molded container including vertical ribs extending from a shoulder region to the bottom along the sidewalls. The shoulder region also includes shoulder ribs and a shoulder base portion.
  • The underlying problem of the present invention is to render a bottle markable in order that the style in which it is marked can easily be maintain consistent for a group of bottles.
  • The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a bottle for sports use, that solves this problem by solving the drawbacks of a bottle for sports as described above.
  • Within the scope of this task, it is an object of the present invention to propose a bottle for sports use, markable with a wide range of predefined marks.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a bottle for sports use, that are markable with precise and durable marks.
  • Yet another object of the invention is to propose a bottle for sports use, that is structurally simple and easy to realize and use.
  • This task, as well as these and other objects that will best appear in the following, are achieved by a bottle for sports use according to claim 1 attached.
  • Detail features of the bottle for sports use according to the invention are reported in the corresponding dependent claims.
  • Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become more apparent from the description of a preferred but non-exclusive embodiment of the bottle for sports use according to the invention, illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the joined table of figures, in which:
    • figure 1 shows a partial view of a bottle for sports use according to the present invention;
    • figure 2 shows a further partial view of a bottle for sports use;
    • figure 3 illustrates a bottle for sports use according to the present invention, in perspective view.
  • With particular reference to the figures cited, the reference numerai 10 generally designates a bottle for sports use, which according to the present invention has a particular peculiarity in the fact that it has operating parts 11 delimited and adapted to be colored by means of an ink, these operating parts 11 are visible on the outside of the bottle and mutually positioned in such a way that, after the coloring of the first of these operating parts 11 or portions of them, they form letters, digits or other conventional symbols.
  • The operating parts 11 are grooved with respect to an outer surface 12 of the bottle 10.
  • The operating parts 11 have an operating surface 11 a and an edge 11 b that surrounds the operating surface 11 a to hinder the coloring of surfaces of the bottle 10 different from the operating surface 11 a when it is colored by a user.
  • In other words, the edge 11b defines a physical blocking, for example, to the tip of a pen or a marker, so that a user that colors the operating surface 11a is guided by the edge 11b to color the peripheral margin of the latter in a clean and precise manner.
  • Preferably, the operating surface 11a is structurally or chemically suitable to retain an ink or other coloring material.
  • The operating surface 11a is substantially parallel to the outer surface 12 of the bottle 10 and the operating parts 11 form a plurality of digits or letters and/or comprise a plurality of segments that are selectively colorable to form at least a digit or a letter such as, by way of example and not limitative, illustrated in figures 1 and 2.
  • The operating parts 11 are grooved with respect to the outer surface 12 and comprise at least a group 13 of 7 rectilinear operating parts 11 arranged to form a stylized 8.
  • In this way, by selectively coloring a combination of the rectilinear operating parts 11, it is possible to obtain any of the digits from 0 to 9, for example in figure 2, in a first group, the straight lines of the operating part 11 are colored in a way to form the digit 2 and in a second group, the operational parts are colored to form the digit 3.
  • In a possible embodiment of the present invention, not shown in the accompanying figures, the bottle 10 advantageously comprises a body and a sheath covering at least partially an external face of the body, the sheath has through holes able to expose tracts of the external face of the body, whereby the tracts are delimited by the holes so as to define the operating parts.
  • The sheath is preferably movable on the body and, advantageously, can be coupled to the body and detachable from the latter to be used on the body of an additional bottle 10.
  • With particular reference to figure 3, the bottle 10 advantageously comprises a body 14 and a cap 15.
  • The operating parts 11 are provided with choices:
    • exclusively on the body 14;
    • or on the body 14 and on the cap 15.
  • The cap 15 comprises a lower part 16 able to couple with an opening of the body 14 and an upper part 17 provided with a spout 18 through which the user can drink the contents of the bottle.
  • The cap 15 advantageously comprises an upper wall 19 circumferential with spout 18 and provided with operating parts 11.
  • The body 14 has a main direction of development and advantageously the upper wall 19 extends substantially perpendicular to the main direction of development.
  • Thus, the bottle 10 allows for easy visibility of recognizable symbols even from the top, where such symbol have been drawn, as described above.
  • The invention thus conceived is susceptible of numerous modifications and variations, all of which fall within the scope of the enclosed claims.
  • In practice, the materials used, as well as the shapes and the size of the contingents, may be varied according to the contingent needs and state of the art.
  • For example, the operating parts can be made from a dot matrix, little squares embossed or grooved, and not just with the typical features of the digital numbers exemplified in the attached figures.
  • If the constructive features and techniques mentioned in the following claims are followed by signs or reference numbers, such signs or reference numbers have been assigned with the sole purpose of increasing the intelligibility of the claims themselves and, consequently, they do not constitute in any way of limiting the interpretation of each element identified, purely for example, by such signs or reference numbers.
