Description

Funeral urn

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to an urn funeral home for temporary containment of ashes of the incineration of a deceased.

Background of the invention

At present, it is a common practice to use of ballot boxes to deliver ashes to relatives Funeral of the deceased.

Generally these ashes are scattered or spills in various places, generally according to the will of the deceased, being usual to discard the urn in it place.

These urns, normally constituted by a receptacle or container and a top closure lid, can be made of different materials, such as metal, wood, plastic or stone materials, so they are not biodegradable and pollute the environment when abandoned from Inivic form

The manufacture of these urns in materials biodegradable, such as collagen derivatives and other materials organic, which can be discarded in the environment and they disappear in a relatively short time, it is excessively face.

On the other hand, although these urns do not have a important volume, its rigid configuration, determines that it is it is necessary to allocate a high space for transport and storage prior to use.

Description of the invention

The funeral urn of the present invention It comprises a series of technical peculiarities that, with some low manufacturing costs, allow easy disposal in the Environment and optimized use and storage.

In effect, the urn comprises a container body and a cover with closing means, presenting the particularity of that both pieces are made of cellulose pulp biodegradable.

The container body may be formed in one piece or consisting of two coupled parts telescopically Biodegradable cellulose pulp can be conform in the desired shapes with ease by machinery of pressure molding.

In addition the components made in paste of cellulose easily and ecologically disintegrate in an environment weathering, so that the urn waste does not cause environmental problems.

As mentioned, the container body it can be constituted by two mounted elements telescopically One of the elements forms a receptacle lower, closed at its base, which has a surrounding fin protrusion in your upper mouth. On this receptacle is arranged a tubular element that forms the upper part of the container body

This tubular element is arranged outwardly and inwardly it presents a surrounding fin in its bottom contour, so that when deploying telescopically both components, the container body is formed when the fins on the walls of the complementary element. This allows the polls can be stored contracted in a reduced volume and can be deployed at the time of use.

So that the container body has a adequate consistency and resistance, the lower receptacle and the upper tubular element present a series of ribbed ribs longitudinally that provide adequate reinforcement. The fins of interlocking have an outline similar to the vessel walls

The cover has closing means for prevent accidental release or release and spillage of content of the urn. For this, the cover has a perimeter skirt, preferably truncated conical, which has windows next to its upper contour, there is an incoming under each window  or recessed defined in the skirt itself.

This entree or recess is operatively suitable to establish interference with the leading edge defined in the mouthpiece of the tubular element of the body and exert the closure temporary. This upper window allows the lid to be easily fabricate by molding and that the aforementioned leading edge is adjusted above the entree, forming an indicator visual of the correct closure of the urn. To open the urn only it is necessary to force the skirt so that the lid can be raised.

It is also provided that the cover has a domed configuration with radial reinforcement grooves. In an alternative embodiment, the cover may have a handle in the central part, constituted by an emerging zone up, as a knob.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As can be seen in the figures referenced the urn comprises a container body (1), provided of a cover (2) with retention means in the closed position, the aforementioned pieces being made of cellulose pulp biodegradable.

In the example shown in the figures the body container (1) comprises a lower receptacle (11) and an element upper tubular (12) telescopically mounted, though, as already mentioned above, the aforementioned container body (1) It could consist of a single piece of cellulose pulp recyclable.

As seen in Figure 4, the lower receptacle (11) is closed inferiorly and has outwardly, in its mouth, a surrounding fin (13).

In turn, the upper tubular element (12) internally it has a surrounding fin (14) in its contour lower.

Both fins (13 and 14) are suitable for locking with the walls of the complementary element (11 and 12) when the container body (1) develops telescopically. As he lower receptacle (11) as the tubular element (12) have ribbed ribs (15) of longitudinal reinforcement, which They confer rigidity and consistency. The fins (13 and 14) have a Complementary contour with adjacent walls.

The cover (2) has ribs (21) fluted, arranged radially, as depicted in the Figures 1 and 2. The cover (2) is peripherally extended in a truncated conical skirt (22), coupled to the edge (16) of the mouth of the container body (1). This skirt (22) has windows (23) next to its upper contour, existing below these windows (23) a ribbed inlet (24) of said skirt (22), operatively able to establish interference, in position Closing the urn, with the leading edge (16) mentioned above of the tubular element (12) of the container body (1), as see in figure 3.

In an alternative embodiment the cover (2) it can have a handle (25) constituted by a protuberance central, as a knob, as shown in Figure 5.

Once the nature of The invention, as well as a preferred embodiment, is for the appropriate purposes that the materials, form, size and arrangement of the elements described may be modified, as long as this does not imply an alteration of the essential features of the invention claimed in continuation.
