Abstract

The present invention relates to a single coating 1 or double coating, faces 1 2, of a synthetic elastomer, preferably of the silicone type, on to the opposite faces of a cork stopper, the flexible and adherent leaktightness thus obtained completely eliminates deterioration of the taste and breakdown of the cork by the action of the mould. Similarly, vaporisation of the alcohol and perfusion of the liquid through the stopper is impossible.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif formant barrage à la perfusion d'un liquide ou d'un gaz au travers d'un bouchon de liège ou autres matériaux poreux communément utilisés pour le bouchage. The present invention relates to a device forming a barrier to the perfusion of a liquid or a gas through a cork stopper or other porous materials commonly used for capping.

La composition du liège étant un tissu de cellules végétales mortes et poreuses, laisse passer l'oxygène de l'air ambiant facteur d'oxydation de la plupart des liquides vineux. The composition of cork being a tissue of dead and porous plant cells, allows oxygen from the ambient air to pass, an oxidation factor for most vinous liquids.

La fermeture des bouteilles ou autre flaconnage est traditionnellement réalisée à l'aide de bouchons de liège notamment pour le vin le bouchon précité, s'imprègne dans le temps par perfusion du liquide contenu dans le flacon. The closure of bottles or other bottles is traditionally carried out using cork stoppers, in particular for wine, the aforementioned stopper is impregnated over time by perfusion of the liquid contained in the bottle.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de supprimer totalement cet inconvénient qui auparavant conduisait au rejet pur et simple du contenu en cas d'altération du gout. The device according to the invention makes it possible to completely eliminate this drawback which previously led to outright rejection of the content in the event of alteration of the taste.

La présente invention consiste en une enduction d'un élastomère de synthèse du type silicone, de l'un ou des deux plans parrallèles (1 ET 2) coupant les génératrices de la surface cylindrique d'un bouchon de liège (fig 1 - fig 2- fig 3 - fig 4 - fig 5) du croquis annexé. The present invention consists of a coating of a synthetic elastomer of the silicone type, of one or two parallel planes (1 AND 2) cutting the generatrices of the cylindrical surface of a cork stopper (fig 1 - fig 2 - fig 3 - fig 4 - fig 5) of the attached sketch.

Selon une forme préférentielle l'application est réalisée par pulvérisation mais peut se faire par enduction ou au trempé. L'épaisseur de l'enduction étanche sera d'au moins cinq dixième de millimètre, i1P
or d'un élastomère silicone ou autres ~proprletes equlvalen- tes, à savoir pas de changement des caractéristiques au vieillissement, souple, totalement étanche, compatible avec l'aspect alimentaire, diversement coloré et adhérent au support.According to a preferred form the application is carried out by spraying but can be done by coating or by dipping. The thickness of the waterproof coating will be at least five tenths of a millimeter, i1P
gold of a silicone elastomer or other ~ proplletes equlvalen- tes, namely no change in aging characteristics, flexible, completely waterproof, compatible with the food aspect, variously colored and adherent to the support.

La qualité souple du produit choisi est primordiale car il ne doit subir aucune déchirure lors de l'introduction dans le goulot du flacon.  The flexible quality of the chosen product is essential because it must not be torn when it is introduced into the neck of the bottle.

I1 est fréquent de constater à l'utilisation finale du contenu d'un flacon tel que le vin, alcool, liqueur, produit de bouche en général que le gout d'origine a subit une altération par le contact du bouchon de liège avec le liquide. Ce gout très désagréable appelé communément "gout de bouchon ou vin bouchonné conduit le plus souvent au remplacement du liquide d'ou un préjudice très important tant sur le plan restaurateurs, que négociants ou producteurs récoltants. I1 is frequent to note with the final use of the contents of a bottle such as the wine, alcohol, liqueur, product of mouth in general that the original taste underwent an alteration by the contact of the cork stopper with the liquid . This very unpleasant taste commonly called "cork taste or corked wine most often leads to the replacement of the liquid or a very significant damage both in terms of restaurateurs, traders or harvesting producers.

La présente invention élimine totalement tous risques de perfusion et d'altération du contenu de même elle supprime radicalement l'évaporation de l'alcool composant volatil de certains spiritueux. The present invention totally eliminates all risks of perfusion and alteration of the content, likewise it radically suppresses the evaporation of the alcohol volatile component of certain spirits.

La présente invention s'détend également à l'enduction du même élastomère de synthèse diversement coloré sur la face opposée (fig 2) face en contact avec l'atmosphère. The present invention also extends to the coating of the same synthetic elastomer variously colored on the opposite face (FIG. 2), face in contact with the atmosphere.

Dans le cas d'évolution prolongée en bouteilles chez le récoltant, il est courant de devoir remplacer au cours des années les bouchons qui se détruisent par simple contact avec l'ambiance humide des caves et l'action cryptogramique des champignons parasites, sans compter l'obligation de compléter le niveau du liquide évaporé. In the case of prolonged evolution in bottles at the harvester's, it is common to have to replace over the years the corks which destroy themselves by simple contact with the humid atmosphere of the cellars and the cryptogramic action of the parasitic fungi, not to mention the obligation to top up the level of the evaporated liquid.

Le fait de recouvrir d'une enduction d'élastomère imputrescible les deux faces (1 et 2) du bouchon (fig 4) supprime totalement cette opération très couteuse en main d t oeuvre. De plus le bouchon de liège protégé double faces ne se couvre pas de champions ou de moisissures ou aspect charbonné évitant ainsi le lavage du goulot avant la mise en place de la capsule définitive. The fact of covering with a rot-proof elastomer coating the two faces (1 and 2) of the plug (FIG. 4) completely eliminates this very expensive operation in terms of labor. In addition, the double-sided protected cork stopper is not covered with champions or mold or charred appearance, thus avoiding the washing of the neck before the final capsule is put in place.
