BEVERAGE CONTAINER, IN PARTICULAR A BEVERAGE BOTTLE, A

BEVERAGE BOX OR A BEVERAGE CAN, COMPRISING A DRINKING

STRAW THAT IS DIRECTED TO REGULATE THE SUPPLY QUANTITY

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a beverage container, especially a beverage bottle, a beverage box or a beverage can, having a closable interior space and a drinking straw connected to the interior space, according to claim 1.

From utility model DE 20 2014 106 275 U1 there is known a beverage container configured as a drinking bottle with a closable interior space and a drinking straw connected to the interior space. The drinking straw comprises a drinking element, which protrudes from the interior space and has a drinking — opening at the outer end, as well as a through channel reaching into the interior space, through which the drinking opening is connected to the interior space. The drinking straw is adapted to regulate the supply guantity. For this, the drinking straw has a drinking valve arranged in the through channel. - [0003] From US 2009/0065605 Al there is known a beverage container according to the preamble of claim 1.

Starting from the prior art mentioned above, the invention is based on the problem of modifying a beverage container of the kind mentioned above, being characterized by a drinking straw which enables a more simple regulation of the supply guantity and which is easier and more economical to produce.

[0005] This problem is solved according to the invention by the features of independent claim 1. Advantageous modifications are the subject matter of the claims dependent on the independent claim.

[0006] According to claim 1 a beverage is proposed, having a closable interior space and a drinking straw, which is connected to the interior space and is designed to regulate the supply quantity, wherein the drinking straw comprises a first tubular section and a second tubular section, which is inserted into the first section and can be moved relative to the same, whereby the first section and the second section are each provided, at their lower end, with an inlet opening and, at their upper end, with an outlet opening, wherein the first section and the second section each have at their lower end a closed bottom and, immediately above the closed bottom, they each have a correspondingly contoured recess, which partially- ly extends in the circumferential direction of the first section and of the second — section, respectively, and is designed in the form of an inlet opening, whereby the recesses can be transferred, by relative movement of the second section about its longitudinal axis, into a closed position, in which the recesses of the second section and of the first section are closed by the lateral surface of the respective other section of the drinking straw, and into a drinking position of the drinking straw, in which the recesses overlap one another at least for a section , in order to allow flow through the drinking straw. The second section of the drinking straw is converted by a rotary movement about the longitudinal axis of the drinking straw from the closed position to the drinking position and vice versa. In particular, a rotary movement of the second section by up to 180* may be reguired in order to convert the two recesses of the first section and the second section, configured as inlet openings, from the closed position to a congruent position in the drinking position in which the maximum flow through the drinking straw can be achieved. Thus, the drinking straw acts like a regulated flow fitting, since the inflow of liguid into the beverage container is determined here like when opening a — faucet.

Preferably, the recesses can have a circular, oval, or semi-oval shape. The recesses can extend from the closed bottom in the longitudinal direction of the first and the second sections. In this way, any remaining liguid is minimized when emptying the beverage container. The recesses form intersections, the ad- justable overlapping of which serves for regulating the inflow through the drink- ing straw. Arranged immediately above the closed bottom of the first section or the second section means that the respective recess at least touches the respective bottom.

Since the recesses are arranged immediately above the respective closed bottom of the first section and the second section, and when the first section and the second section extend substantially as far as the bottom in the interior space of the beverage container, any amount of liquid remaining in the beverage container can be minimized.

[0009] Furthermore, the first section and the second section can have approximately the same length.

[0010] Preferably, at least one radially inward directed protrusion can be arranged beneath the outlet opening of the first section. The inner diameter of the — protrusion is dimensioned such that it encloses the inserted second section with form fit. The radial protrusion on the first section has a sealing function.

[0011] Furthermore, at least one radially outward directed protrusion can be arranged beneath on the second section, by which the second section after being inserted into the first section is braced on the radial protrusion. The dimensions of the radial protrusion of the second section are chosen such that the radial protrusion lies with form fitting against the inner wall of the first section. The protrusion can be molded on the second section. - [0012] Alternatively, at least the protrusion of the second section can be configured as a ring, which can be pushed onto the second section. The protrusion can be fastened as a separately configured annular element on the second section.

In particular, the drinking straw can have at least partly curved outflow section at the upper end of the second section. The outflow section in particular protrudes out from the interior space of the beverage container. Through the out

flow section, the liquid contained in the beverage container can be sucked up in the drinking position of the drinking straw.

Preferably, the first section can be arranged on an inner wall section of the beverage container. Thanks to the fastening of the first section, it is easier to manipulate the drinking straw, since the recess or inlet opening of the first section always assumes the same position relative to the second section. Thus, to regulate the supply guantity, only the rotary movement of the second section about the longitudinal axis is necessary, and this will depend on the degree of overlap of the two recesses.

In particular, the beverage container can comprise a lower container part and an upper container part, the lower container part having an outer diameter which is larger than the outer diameter of the upper container parts, so that a radial - al shoulder is formed between the lower and the upper container part, in which a through-passage opening is situated, through which the second section can be introduced into the first section.

Adjacent to the through-passage opening, on the outside, a gap can be formed on the upper container part, in which the outflow section of the second section of the drinking straw can be stored, the drinking straw being in the closed position interrupting the flow.

In order to place the drinking straw in the drinking position, the outflow section is swiveled out from the gap up to an angle of around 180. In addition, the gap can be provided on its side facing the free end of the outflow section with a rubber body, sealing off the free end of the outflow section in the storage position. The gap can be formed as a furrow or a joint in the upper container part, in which the outflow section can be stowed when the drinking straw has been moved to its closed position. The gap formed as a furrow or joint can basically receive at least a portion of the outflow section with form fitting.

Preferably, the beverage container can be formed as a beverage bottle made of plastic or metal, especially a light metal. 5 [0019] In a preferred modification, the drinking straw has a pouring function.

This occurs when the two recesses of the first and second sections are brought into alignment. By swiveling the beverage container transversely to the longitudinal axis of the drinking straw, liquid can run out through the drinking straw, without requiring any suction action.

The multiple functionality achieved by the beverage container and the drinking straw has the advantage of safeguarding the contents of the beverage container. For example, during automobile driving or professional cycling, it is possible to drink out of the particular beverage container without the driver hav-ing to tilt his head up and without soiling his garments or the surroundings with spilled liguid during the driving.

In order to make sure that the particular beverage container has not been touched before, in the sense of being unused, a seal (such as that of a honey container) is provided on the outer body of the beverage container , preferably at the place where the outflow section of the drinking straw is fixed in the recess. Consequently, this seal is first broken when it is used for the first time.

[0022] Especially preferably, the beverage container can be configured as a beverage bottle or a beverage box (Tetra Pak).

[0023] According to one embodiment not claimed, a beverage is proposed, hav- ing a closable interior space and a drinking straw, which is connected to the interior space and is designed to regulate the supply quantity, wherein the drinking - straw comprises a first tubular section and a second tubular section, which can be inserted into the first section and can be moved relative to the same, wherein the first section and the second section are each provided, at their lower end, with an inlet opening and, at their upper end, with an outlet opening, whereby the first section has at its lower end a closed bottom and above the closed bottom a recess, which partially extends in the circumferential direction of the first section and is designed in the form of an inlet opening, situated immediately above the closed bottom of the first section, whereby the recess can be transferred, by a relative movement of the second section, into a closed position of the drinking straw, in which the recess of the first section is closed by the lateral surface of the second section, and into a drinking position of the drinking straw, in which the recess allows a flow through the drinking straw. The second section of the drinking — straw is converted by a longitudinal movement in the axial direction of the first section from the closed position to the drinking position and vice versa. The partial pulling out of the second section makes it possible to remove the liguid contained in the beverage container by the at least partial freeing up of the recess or the inlet opening in the first section. By pushing in the second section until reach- ing the bottom of the first section, the recess in the first section is closed again.

Thanks to the recess arranged immediately above the closed bottom of the first section, any liguid remaining in the beverage container can be minimized.

In particular, the recess of the first section can have a circular, oval, or semi-oval shape. Arranged immediately above the closed bottom means that the recess at least touches the bottom of the first section.

[0025] Preferably, the first section can have a decreasing trend for its inner diameter extending from its inlet opening at the lower end to its outlet opening at the upper end. The first section can have in particular a conical trend in the axial di - rect.

Furthermore, the second section can have an outer diameter, especially a continuous one, which is smaller than the inner diameter of the first section at its upper end. In this way, the pull-out length of the second section can be limited relative to the first section.

According to one preferred modification, two radially outward directed protrusions are formed on the second section in the region above the recess of the first section, being spaced apart from each other in the axial direction. The pro- — trusions, especially annular protrusions, serve on the one hand for the stable holding of the drinking straw during use and on the other hand they prevent the contents of the beverage container in the second section from getting higher than where these annular protrusions are located. Thus, the protrusions also have a sealing function. Moreover, the second protrusion — the protrusion arranged on — the second section with the greater distance from the bottom, looking from the bottom of the beverage container — will remain at furthest height where the first section has an inner diameter which is less than the outer diameter of the protrusion on the first section.

[0028]Preferably, the interior space can be closed once more by a closure element, the closure element being formed as a safety flap or a lever tab. The closure element, after being activated for the first time to open the beverage container, remains connected to it, such that an opening location freed up by the closure element can be at least covered.

In particular, the second section of the drinking straw can protrude by its free end below the closure element for a portion out from the interior space. By opening the beverage container by means of the closure element, the second section of the drinking straw is made accessible to being pulled out for a portion. In this case, the spaced apart protrusions on the second section will likewise be pulled upward.

[0030] In order to enjoy the contents of the beverage container on multiple occasions, the second section can be pushed back down toward the bottom of the first section of the drinking straw. Thanks to the air located in the interior of the first section of the drinking straw and with the aid of the two outer annular protrusions on the second section, all of the liquid still present in the drinking straw can be pressed out of it and back into the can, so that the drinking straw becomes basically free of liquid. Upon reaching the bottom of the beverage container, the end of the first section comes up against the closed bottom of the second section, so that the recess is closed and everything becomes tight. On account of the two annular protrusions, neither can any more liquid escape. Hence, the regulation of the supply quantity also comes to bear here.

Preferably, the first section and the second section can consist of a plastic and/or aluminum. Preferably, the first section consists of aluminum or a transparent — parent plastic. The second section consists preferably of aluminum. Preferably, the closure element designed as a safety flap or lever tab and the drinking straw are made of shiny aluminum, in order to achieve an interesting and exciting impression, especially among young consumers.

Especially preferably, the beverage container can be formed as a beverage can.

[0033] If the material used for the second section of the drinking straw is a transparent plastic, then the recycling needs to be done according to the present state — of the art: the used beverage can is completely comminuted and placed in a water bath. Here, the plastic which floats to the top on account of its light weight is separated from the rest of the beverage can.

[0034] The present invention shall be explained more closely with the aid of ex- - emplary represented in the drawings.

Fig. 1 shows a drinking straw 1 designed to regulate the inflow when sucking in liquid from a beverage container 14. The drinking straw 1, also called a straw because of being made originally from a stalk of straw, comprises a first tubular section 2 and a second tubular section 3. The second section 3 is followed by an outflow section 4.

The first section 2 has a length of 130 mm and an inner diameter of 6.2 mm. The first section 2 has at one end a closed bottom 5, which entirely closes the first section 2 in the radial direction to the longitudinal axis 12 of the drinking straw 1. At the opposite end there is an outlet opening 6. Immediately above the closed bottom 5 there is an inlet opening 7 extending for a portion in the circumferential direction of the first section 2. The inlet opening 7 is configured as a semioval recess 7a, extending for a portion in the circumferential direction of the first section 2. The recess 7a has an axial extension of 8 mm, starting from the bottom 5. Beneath the outlet opening 6 of the first section 2 is an inwardly direct encircling protrusion 8. The encircling protrusion 8 has a depth of 0.2 mm, i.e., a radial extension of 0.1 mm, so that the inner diameter of the first section 2 narrows to 6 mm in this place. Looking from the bottom of the beverage container 14, the encircling protrusion is situated at a 120 mm height in the first section 2.

The second section 3 has a length of 130 mm and an inner diameter of 6 mm. The second section 3 has at one end a closed bottom 9, which entirely closes the second section 3 in the radial direction. At the opposite end there is an outlet opening 11. Immediately above the closed bottom 9 there is an inlet opening 10 extending for a portion in the circumferential direction of the second section 3.

The inlet opening 10 is configured as a semioval recess 10a, extending for a portion in the circumferential direction of the second section 3. The recess 10a has an axial extension of 8 mm, starting from the bottom 9. The contour of the recess 10a corresponds to the contour of the recess 7a. The outflow section 4 has a length of 60 mm and an inclination of 45°. The inlet opening 10 or recess 10a is arranged offset by 180° from the outlet opening 11 at the end of the outflow section 4. Immediately above the closed bottoms 5, 9 of the first section 2 and the second section 3 means that the respective recess 7a, 10a at least touches the respective bottom 5, 9.

The representation in FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of a beverage container 14 configured as a beverage bottle with the drinking straw 1 of FIG. 1 in a closed position. The beverage container 14 comprises a lower container part 15 and an upper container part 16. The upper container part 16 has a fill opening, which can be closed by a lid 17. The lower container part 15 has an outer diameter of 80 mm . The upper container part 16 has an outer diameter of 60 mm. Because of the diameter reduction between the lower container part 15 and the upper container part 16, a radial shoulder 20 is formed. In the radial shoulder — 20 is situated a through-passage opening 21, through which the second section 3 of the drinking straw 1 can be inserted into the first section 2. The beverage container 14 can also be configured as a beverage box having a regulated drinking straw 1 in regard to the supply guantity. - [0040] Adjacent to the through-passage opening 21, on the outside, there is formed a gap 18 on the upper container part 16, in which the outflow section 4 of the second section 3 of the drinking straw 1 can be stowed. In the area of the out

let opening 11 of the outflow section 4 there is a rubber body 19 configured as a sealing element, which closes the outlet opening 11 in the stowed position, in order to prevent an unwanted escaping of liguid. The gap 18 can be formed as a furrow or joint in the upper container part 16. The outflow section 4, when the — drinking straw 1 has been moved to its closed position, is stowed basically form fitting in the gap 18 configured as a furrow or joint.

[0041] The representation in FIG. 2 shows the drinking straw 1 in its closed position. In the closed position of the drinking straw 1, the inlet opening 7 of the first section 2 is closed by the lateral surface of the second section 3 and the inlet opening 10 of the second section 3 is closed by the lateral surface of the first sec - tion 2, the recesses 7a, 10a being positioned offset by 180° from each other.

The inlet opening 7 of the first section 2 and the inlet opening 10 of the second section 3 can be moved from the closed position of the drinking straw 1 to a drinking position of the drinking straw 1 by a relative movement of the second section 3 about the longitudinal axis 12. In the drinking position, the inlet openings 7, 10 overlap each other at least for a portion, in order to make possible a flow through the drinking straw 1. The degree of overlap of the inlet openings 7, — 10 regulates the amount of the flow through the drinking straw 1. The activation is done by swiveling the outflow section 4 about the longitudinal axis 12.

[0043] When taking a drink, the outflow section 4 of the drinking straw 1 is re-moved from the aforementioned gap 18 and the rubber body 19 and turned by up to 180°, so that the recesses 7a and 10a of the first section 2 and the second section 3, which are facing away from each other in the closed position, become aligned or congruent with each other in the interior of the beverage container 14 and thus the path is completely opened for the liguid contained in the beverage container 14 to get into the drinking straw 1.

On the one hand, it is possible to take a drink by sucking on the drinking straw 1 and on the other hand the drinking straw 1 has a pouring function when the contents in the beverage container 14 are poured out into a glass, especially without spilling.

After taking a drink, the outflow section 4 of the drinking straw 1 can again be turned and stowed in the gap 18 with the rubber body 19. Consequently, the function of the drinking straw 1 as a regulation of the supply quantity comes to bear here, since the inflow of liquid is determined here like the opening of a water faucet.

3 shows an outer and an inner view of a top side of a beverage container according to a second embodiment, configured as a beverage can 22. The beverage can 22 comprises a can lid 23, which is provided with an opening location 24. The opening location 24 is closed by a closure element configured as a safety flap 25 or a lever tab. The safety flap 25 has a length of 20 mm and a width of 12 mm (similar to the lip of a spoon), which is firmly joined to the beverage can 22 prior to the opening and which thus serves to guarantee the integrity of the beverage can 22. Upon opening the beverage can 22, the safety flap 25 is folded up and separated on one side from the can lid 23. While the safety flap 25 can be folded back, because it is joined on one side to the can lid 23, in order to protect the contents of the beverage can 22, it is no longer fully integrated with the beverage can 22, as was the case prior to the first time opening of the beverage can 22. Consequently, the safety flap 25 serves on the one hand for demonstrating the integrity of the beverage can 22 and on the other hand for preventing any foreign bodies from getting into the beverage can 22.

Fig. 4 shows a drinking straw 26 according to the second embodiment designed to regulate the inflow. The drinking straw 26 comprises a first tubular section 27 and a second tubular section 31. The second tubular section 31, which serves for the removal of the liquid contained in the beverage can 22, can be in- serted into the first section 27 after the opening of the beverage can 22. The first section 27 and the second section 31 are each provided at a lower end with an inlet opening 30 or 32 and at an upper end with an outlet opening 29 or 33. The first section 27 has a closed bottom 28 at its lower end. Immediately above the closed bottom 28 there is a recess 30a formed as an inlet opening 30, extending for a portion in the circumferential direction of the first section 27.

The first tubular section 27 is a tube 129 mm long, which consists of either aluminum or a transparent plastic. The first section 27 has an inner diameter of around 7 mm in the region of its inlet opening 30 and reaches to the bottom of the beverage can 22. The recess 30a forming the inlet opening 30 has a semioval shape at the lower end of the first Section 27 (as seen from the bottom 28 of the first section 27), with a width of S mm and a height of 5 mm, starting from the bottom 28. The recess 30a is situated immediately above the closed bottom 28 of the first section 27. The upper part of the first section 27, which is joined to the can lid 23 of the beverage can 22, has an inner diameter of around 6 mm. The first tubular section tapers 27 in the axial direction.

The second section 31 can be inserted into the first section 27. The second section 31 is arranged in the first section 27 movably relative to it in the axial direction, i.e., in the lengthwise direction of the first section 27. The second section 31 has a length of 132 mm and preferably consists of (shiny) aluminium. The — second section 31 is around 2 mm longer than the beverage can 22 itself, so that the second section 31 thus protrudes from the beverage can 22 or sticks out beyond the can lid 23 when the second section 31 has been pushed as far as the bottom 28 of the first section 27. The outer diameter of the second tubular section 31 is 5 mm.

Looking from the bottom 28 of the first section 27, the second section 31 contains an outer encircling protrusion 34, 35 each time, configured as rings, at intervals of 15 mm from each other. The encircling protrusions 34, 35 have a thickness of 1 mm, i.e., a radius of 0.5 mm. At the outlet opening 33 of the second section 31, which protrudes out from the beverage can 22 by 2 mm beyond the can lid 23, there is located the safety flap 25 or lever tab, which is lifted in order to open the beverage may 22.

The representation of Fig. 5 shows a schematic representation of the beverage container 22 with the drinking straw 26 of Fig. 4 located in it.

The representation of Fig. 5 shows the drinking straw 26 according to the second embodiment in its closed position. In the closed position of the drinking straw 26, in which the second section 31 stands on the bottom 28 of the first section 27, the inlet opening 32 of the second section 31 is closed by the bottom 28 of the first section 27. At the same time, the lateral surface of the second section 31 closes the inlet opening 30 of the first section 27, i.e., the recess 30a.

In order to open the beverage can 22 and convert the drinking straw 26 to its drinking position, the safety flap 25 is lifted. After this, the second section 31 is pulled out in the axial direction of the drinking straw 26 in order to take a — drink. As a result, the two outer encircling protrusions 34, 35 on the second section 31, being secured at distances of 15 mm from each other on the second section 31, are also pulled upward in the axial direction. These protrusions 34, 35 serve on the one hand for the stable holding of the second section 31 of the drinking straw 26 during use and on the other hand prevent the contents of the beverage can 22 in the first section 27 from getting higher or rising more than where these protrusions 34, 35 are located. Moreover, the second or upper protrusion 35 — looking from the bottom 28, the protrusion 35 situated at 30 mm height above the inlet opening 32 — remains stuck at no higher than where the first tubular section 27 has an inner diameter of 6 mm . In this way, the annular gap between the first section 27 and the second section 31 is sealed off.

When taking a drink, the beverage can 22 is opened by leverage using the safety flap 25 and the second section 31 protruding from the can lid 23 can be pulled out to a maximum of 100 mm from the beverage can 22.

In order to enjoy the content of the beverage can 22 on multiple occasions, the second section 31 can be pressed back down again to the bottom 28 of the first section 27 in the beverage can 22. When pressing down the second section 31, its outlet opening 33 is generally closed by the finger of the person using the drinking straw 26, so that the air present inside the second section 31 is temporarily unable to escape. Thanks to the air present inside the second section 31 and with the aid of the two outer protrusions 34, 35, the entire liquid still present in the drinking straw 26 is pressed out from it and back into the beverage can 22, so that the drinking straw 26 becomes entirely free of liquid. Hence, the end of the second section 31 arrives at the end-side bottom 28 of the first section 27, so that everything becomes tight and the drinking straw 26 is once again in its closed position. And on account of the two protrusions 34, 35, neither can any more liquid escape. Consequently, the function of the drinking straw 26 in regulating the supply quantity comes to bear here. By means of the closure element configured as a safety flap 25 or the lever tab, the opening location 24 in the can lid 23 of the beverage can 22 can be at least covered.
