Abstract

The invention relates to a drip-collecting ring for bottles which is used to collect any drops which spill when the liquid in the bottle is being poured. The inventive device comprises a single sheet of semi-rigid, absorbent material. The aforementioned sheet is provided with a hole which is used to hook the device on the neck of the bottle, to which said device remains fixed by means of pressure and without folds (figure 3). Any drops which slide down the neck of the bottle are absorbed by the material of the drip-collecting ring at the point at which said ring is in contact with the neck. Furthermore, any drops which escape and collide with the surface of the ring are also absorbed. The external perimeter of the ring and the hole therein can be produced in different shapes and sizes. Moreover, the surface of the inventive ring can comprise printed elements and holes through which a cord can be passed.

Description

Collar atrapagotas para botellas.Bottle dropper bottle.

Sector de la técnicaTechnical sector

La presente invención se refiere a una técnica para recoger las gotas que pueden derramarse al verter líquidos contenidos en una botella, mediante un dispositivo acoplable al exterior de su cuello.The present invention relates to a technique to collect the drops that can spill when pouring liquids contained in a bottle, by means of a device attachable to the outside of his neck.

Estado de la técnicaState of the art

Para evitar que al verter un líquido desde una botella el derrame de gotas desde su boca produzca manchas en el exterior de la propia botella, en las manos de quienes la manejan, o en la superficie sobre la que se apoye, se han ideado hasta ahora diversos dispositivos que pueden agruparse en dos tipos diferentes.To prevent when pouring a liquid from a bottle the spill of drops from your mouth produce spots on the outside the bottle itself, in the hands of those who handle it, or on the surface on which it rests, they have been devised so far various devices that can be grouped into two types different.

Un primer tipo comprende dispositivos acoplables a la boca de las botellas de manera que el liquido se vierta a través de ellos para conseguir que, por algún procedimiento, se evite o reduzca el derrame de gotas fuera del flujo deseado de vertido.A first type comprises docking devices to the mouth of the bottles so that the liquid is poured into through them to get that, by some procedure, avoid or reduce the spill of drops out of the desired flow of spill.

Un segundo tipo comprende dispositivos acoplables externamente al cuello de las botellas con el fin de recoger las gotas una vez que éstas se han producido. Este tipo de dispositivos presenta sobre el primero la ventaja de no entrar en contacto con el liquido que se vierte, evitando los problemas de salubridad e higiene que pueden presentarse cuando el líquido está destinado al consumo humano.A second type comprises docking devices externally to the neck of the bottles in order to collect the drops once these have occurred. This type of devices have the advantage of not entering the first contact with the liquid that is poured, avoiding the problems of health and hygiene that can occur when the liquid is intended for human consumption.

Existen dispositivos comerciales de este segundo tipo que incorporan algún material capaz de absorber las gotas que se derraman cuando éstas se deslizan por la superficie exterior al cuello de la botella.There are commercial devices of this second type that incorporate some material capable of absorbing the drops that they spill when they slide along the outer surface to the bottle neck.

El objeto de la presente invención es un nuevo dispositivo de este tipo que presenta sobre los conocidos la novedad ventajosa de poderse fabricar mediante una simple operación de troquelado sobre planchas de un material que puede ser barato, con escaso impacto ambiental y, por tanto, potencialmente desechable.The object of the present invention is a new device of this type that presents on the known the advantageous novelty of being able to be manufactured by a simple operation  of die-cutting on plates of a material that can be cheap, with little environmental impact and therefore potentially disposable.

Explicación Explanation
