Description

DESCRIPTION

ISOTHERMAL BOTTLE FOR OIL

Object of the invention

The invention consists of an isothermal bottle for oil whose purpose is to maintain the properties of the oil.

The invention is applicable to the conservation of all types of oils in any place and more specifically it is applicable to the conservation of olive oil, especially in places where the temperature undergoes sudden thermal changes, as is the case, for example, in countries such as the United Arab Emirates or Qatar, where the temperature oscillation in a day between the maximum and the minimum can be about 35 ° C.

Background of the invention

Numerous types and formats of bottles or containers to contain olive oil are in known and widespread use, which present the problem that, especially in places where large changes in temperature occur, the circumstance occurs that the oil can reach to spoil, because, as is known, olive oil loses its properties when it undergoes large changes in temperature.

This problem occurs mainly in countries where after a very cold night it becomes a very hot day, so that in a few hours there are sudden changes in temperature. This, without a doubt, greatly affects the quality and durability of olive oil.

For this reason, once the olive oil is exported from the producing countries and reaches these countries where there are sudden changes in temperature, the conservation of the oil is an issue that becomes a big problem.

Inventions related to isothermal containers are known in the state of the art, such as, for example, those specified in the documents:

- ES 2792505 T3 that describes a bottle with an insulating body that extends axially between the base and the neck to reduce heat transfer from a user's hand and thus improve the insulating performance of the bottle.

- ES 0126882 U describes a bottle housed in a case, which is held in the upper part of said case by means of an insulating collar.

- ES 0054275 U describes a thermos bottle also with a single insulating wall with transverse corrugations.

- ES 0020834 U describes a thermos bottle, but in this case it is provided with two walls between which a chamber is formed in which the vacuum is practiced, whose outer wall is molded in thick glass to allow it to withstand shocks and stresses.

- ES 0016870 U also describes a double-walled bottle that lacks connecting blocks between the walls that constitute it.

- ES 1030832 U describes a flask-thermos in which a bottle is inserted. This thermos is made up of three layers, where the external and internal layers are materialized in sheet metal and the intermediate one in expanded polystyrene or similar insulating material.

- ES 1008423 U describes a tool for keeping a bottle cold that comprises two portions or blocks of insulating material, which have on one of their faces a recess in the shape of a half bottle to house the bottle between the two blocks.

None of the aforementioned documents refers to an isothermal oil bottle that includes an insulating layer that prevents the liquid contained inside from suffering fluctuations in temperature of the environment in which the bottle is located, so that the properties of the oil are preserved for long periods of time.

Description of the invention

The invention solves the main problems that exist in the conservation of oil in the face of possible sudden changes in temperature that it may suffer, as is the case, for example, in which olive oil is exported to countries such as the United Arab Emirates or Qatar, where ambient temperature varies considerably.

For this, the invention consists of an isothermal bottle for oil which, like those provided in the state of the art, comprises an outer wall and an inner wall so as to form an intermediate chamber.

The main novelty of the invention focuses on the fact that the intermediate chamber is filled with an insulating material, preferably a polyurethane foam, so that this configuration provides a highly insulated bottle that allows the oil to be kept sealed and with hardly any radiation. thermal or light radiation, which enables maintain the properties of the oil for longer, especially in those places where large temperature changes occur. This is due to the fact that polyurethane is an excellent insulating material against thermal radiation and light rays, which prevents olive oil from photo-oxidizing, a more than important issue.

In addition, the polyurethane foam is degradable and has the ideal physical characteristics to maintain a sealed temperature of the olive oil within the ranges that allow its properties to be maintained. The ideal storage temperature for olive oil is between 15°C and 18°C.

It should also be noted that polyurethane foam is a material that fits perfectly to the shape of the intermediate chamber of the bottle, forming a compact and homogeneous insulating chamber.

The inner wall is the surface that is in contact with the oil, so it is implemented using a material that complies with the regulations established by the food industry. In the preferred embodiment, this inner wall has been made of glass, the configuration of which does not affect the properties of food and is therefore harmless to human health.

In addition, in the preferred embodiment of the invention, the outer wall is made of brass, whose configuration provides high resistance to oxidation and corrosion, in addition to being highly resistant to wear and being highly recyclable.

In short, the structure of the indicated bottle allows the oil to be kept completely sealed and isolated, avoiding oxidation and temperature changes, which makes it, in the world of olive oil, a container that saves practically all the problems that exist today. today.

The configuration described could keep olive oil inside for years in all these countries without any complications.

Description of the figures

To complete the description and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, a set of figures is attached to this description, as an integral part of it, in which, by way of illustration and not limitation, represented the following:

Figure 1 shows a view of the outside of the bottle, according to an example of embodiment.

Figure 2 shows a section of the previous figure.

Preferred embodiment of the invention

Next, a description of the invention is made based on the previously mentioned figures in which a bottle is shown that comprises an outer wall 1 and an inner wall 2, which form an intermediate chamber that is filled with an insulating material 3, preferably a polyurethane foam.

The use of polyurethane foam is due to the fact that it is a completely harmless and innocuous material, although in no case will it be in contact with the oil contained inside the container.

In addition, the polyurethane foam fits perfectly to the shape of the intermediate chamber. On the other hand, it is a degradable material with ideal physical characteristics to maintain a sealed temperature, as already mentioned. It also prevents the incidence of light inside the bottle, which prevents the olive oil from being photo-oxidized, which is a very important issue.

In short, polyurethane foam provides a thermal insulating effect that allows olive oil to be preserved within the temperature range that maintains its physical properties. The ideal temperature range for olive oil storage is between 15°-18° C.

Consequently, the configuration described provides an opaque and thermally sealed bottle structure, which allows the properties of the oil to be maintained in hot places where large thermal variations occur, as already mentioned.

In the example, the container has a body 4 with a circular configuration, with a neck 5 to facilitate the outflow of olive oil.
