Definitions

  • the present invention is encompassed in the field of packaging configured from a sheet, specifically in that of cardboard sheets configured for carrying bottles.
  • cardboard bottle carriers are usually arranged with holes that fit onto the mouth of each bottle to adjust to the neck thereof and thus use the difference in diameter between neck and mouth as a cardboard retaining configuration, thus making it possible when picking up the cardboard, to carry several bottles.
  • the patent with publication number ES2135492 is known, which explains a cardboard bottle carrier wherein a hole of approximately the diameter of the neck of the bottle is provided, then followed by a hole of approximately the diameter of the mouth of the bottle, which forms a group of two holes, then another similar group is arranged such that the smaller holes are facing each other, the bottle is inserted into one group and by folding it faces the other such that the smaller diameter holes of both groups are around the neck of the bottle, retention of the position is performed by folding a final portion of the cardboard, which can lead to the unfolding of such fold and the holes to move whereby the bottles are not retained, or to ensure the fold, fastening is necessary as an adhesive.
  • each group of holes is arranged at the ends of the cardboard such that when folded along the middle part, which acts as a handle, the holes face each other, when pulling on the cardboard and due to the action of gravity on the bottles, the smaller holes of each group of holes adjust to the neck of the bottles, the configuration of the cardboard implies a fold that goes through the larger hole of the groups of holes, which makes its shaping difficult and further weakens the cardboard.
  • the object of the invention is a cardboard bottle carrier that allows bottles to be retained in a simple manner, such that the position of the bottles is secured during transport.
  • the technical problem to be solved is to configure the cardboard such that the aforementioned object is achieved.
  • the present invention relates to a cardboard bottle carrier for carrying bottles, each bottle comprising a neck and a mouth arranged following said neck.
  • “Mouth” intends to refer to the part of the bottle above the neck and through which the content is introduced and poured but not exclusively the opening, but may also refer to the mouth with a stopper or the like.
  • the cardboard bottle carrier is formed from a quadrangular cardboard sheet symmetrically with respect to a transverse axis, thus forming two symmetrical parts.
  • the invention is explained in relation to a symmetrical part, making it clear that the complete cardboard is configured by symmetrically duplicating the described part.
  • each symmetrical part comprises at least from a first outer side and in sequence a first face in which a first hole is made having a diameter similar to that of the neck of the bottle, followed by and connected to a second hole having a diameter larger than that of the mouth of the bottle, such that the neck can pass from the second hole to the first hole.
  • the configuration continues with a first transverse fold line, a second transverse fold line, a second face with a third hole having a diameter similar to that of the neck of the bottle, followed by and connected to a fourth hole having a diameter larger than that of the mouth of the bottle, such that the neck can pass from the fourth hole to the third hole, a third fold line, a third face, up to the transverse axis that configures a fourth fold line, such that when the cardboard bottle carrier is formed the neck of each bottle introduced through the fourth hole and through the second hole thanks to the fold along the first fold line makes the first face coincide with the second face, by the fold along the second fold line, when pulling on the first face, i.e., the first face slides on the second face to pass from the first to the second fold line, the neck of each bottle is surrounded by the first hole and the third hole, i.e., the neck passes from the holes with a larger diameter, second and fourth, suitable for the mouth of the bottle, to those with a smaller diameter, first and second, that hug
  • Bottles are cited to provide clarity to the description of the invention, making it clear that the bottles are not part of the invention.
  • each bottle (2) shown in Figures 2 to 4 , comprises a neck (2.1) and a mouth (2.2) arranged following said neck (2.1).
  • the cardboard bottle carrier (1) is formed from a quadrangular cardboard sheet (1.1), shown extended in Figure 1 , symmetrically with respect to a transverse axis (E) thus forming two symmetrical parts (PS), each of which comprises at least from a first outer side (1.11) and in sequence a first face (1.12) in which a first hole (1.13) is made having a diameter similar to that of the neck (2.1) of the bottle (2), followed by and connected to a second hole (1.14) having a diameter larger than that of the mouth (2.2) of the bottle (2), such that the neck (2.1) can pass from the second hole (1.14) to the first hole (1.13), a first transverse fold line (1.15), a second transverse fold line (1.16), a second face (1.17) with a third hole (1.18) having a diameter similar to that of the neck (2.1) of the bottle (2), followed by and connected to a fourth hole (1.19) having a diameter larger than that of the mouth (2.2) of the bottle (2), such that the neck (2.1) can pass
  • the minimum configuration of the cardboard bottle carrier (1) is that expressed above and which corresponds to one of the parts separated by a dotted-dashed line in Figure 1 . That is, the minimum configuration would be one third of the configuration shown in Figure 1 and that would allow carrying two bottles (2).
  • the figures show a cardboard bottle carrier (1) configured for carrying six bottles (2), by way of example and in being a usual number of bottles (2), but it could be configured from two bottles (2) up to the number desired, always in even numbers according to the minimum configuration explained.
  • the neck (2.1) of each bottle (2) introduced through the fourth hole (1.19) and through the second hole (1.14) thanks to the fold along the first fold line (1.15) makes the first face (1.12) coincide with the second face (1.17), as shown in Figure 2 .
  • the neck (2.1) of each bottle (2) is surrounded by the first hole (1.13) and the third hole (1.18), as shown in Figure 3 .
  • the third faces (1.21) of each symmetrical part (PS) are made to coincide, thus configuring a handle, as shown in Figure 4 .
  • each third face (1.21) at least a fifth hole (1.22) is made such that when the cardboard bottle carrier (1) is formed, the fifth holes (1.22) of each symmetrical part (PS) coincide.
  • a cavity is configured through which a user's hand can be introduced, which favours the carrying of the cardboard bottle carrier (1).
  • said fifth hole (1.22) has a diameter that can house the mouth (2.2) of each bottle (2) and each third face (1.21) can be folded to a same side along the third fold line (1.20), such that when the third faces (1.21) are folded, each fifth hole (1.22) surrounds its corresponding mouth (2.2) of the bottle (2), whereby the folded third faces (1.21) occupy the minimum possible space and thus favours palletising.
  • a fifth fold line (1.23) is provided upstream of the transverse axis (E) such that when forming the cardboard bottle carrier (1) the transverse axis (E) as the fourth fold line dips as a trough with respect to each fifth fold line (1.23).
  • the type of cardboard is corrugated cardboard. In this way, a relatively rigid and advantageous structure is achieved for carrying most known bottles (2) without breaking the cardboard bottle carrier (1).
