Abstract

A combined straw and lid device for a beverage can is disclosed. The device is attached to the top of an open beverage can to make it easier to drink the liquid contained in the can and enable the can to be resealed. The device consists of a tube (1) combined with a lid (2) and is fitted onto the top of the beverage can (3), whereafter the contents of the can may be ingested by sucking it through an opening (4). The opening (4) may be placed over a projection (5) to seal the can. Said device is particularly intended to be attached directly to a metal beverage can containing any brand of beverage.

Description

La présente invention se définie comme un ustensile alimentaire. Elle se crarctérise par un dispositif que l'on fixe sur le dessus d'une boîte boisson après son ouverture. (boîte en métal servant à conditionner des boissons de toutes marques).Le dispositif facilite la prise du liquide contenu dans la boîte et permet à celle-ci d'être refermée portégeant ainsi son contenu. The present invention is defined as a food utensil. It is crarctérise by a device that is fixed on the top of a drink box after opening. (metal box used to package drinks of all brands). The device facilitates the taking of the liquid contained in the box and allows it to be closed, thereby helping its contents.

Une boîte ouverte ne peut plus être refermée, son contenu n'est plus protégé et doit être consommé rapidement. Le liquide contenu à l'intérieur de la boîte peut être absorbé directement à la sortie de celle-ci. Ce procédé, peu confortable, est difficilement utilisable par tous. Des objets ou des récipients peuvent être utilisés comme intermédiaires. Ces derniers facilitent la consommation du produit mais ne le protègent pas. De plus ils sont souvent fragiles et encombrants à transporter
Le dispositif, selon l'invention, permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. II se compose d'une capsule souple traversée perpendiculairement par une tige creuse et articulée. La mise en place du dispositif, une fois la boîte ouverte, se fait très simplement. La partie inférieure de la tige du dispositif est immergée dans la boisson.La capsule vient recouvrir le dessus de la boîte de façon étanche. La partie supérieure de la tige permet à l'utilisateur de consommer le liquide par aspiration. La boîte munie de ce dispositif peut être refermée. Pour cela , il suffit d'emboîter la partie supérieure de la tige avec l'ergot situé sur le dessus de la capsule. Le dispositif offre de multiples avantages Il est léger, incassable, peu encombrant, simple et utilisable par tous. Il facilite la prise du liquide et permet à la boîte d'être refermée si la boisson n'a pas été entièrement consommée. Elle sera ainsi protégée et conservera plus longtemps ses caractéristiques initiales.An open box can no longer be closed, its contents are no longer protected and must be consumed quickly. The liquid inside the box can be absorbed directly at the outlet of the box. This uncomfortable process is difficult for everyone to use. Objects or containers can be used as intermediaries. These facilitate the consumption of the product but do not protect it. In addition, they are often fragile and cumbersome to transport.
The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. It consists of a flexible capsule crossed perpendicularly by a hollow and articulated rod. The installation of the device, once the box is opened, is very simple. The lower part of the rod of the device is immersed in the beverage, the capsule covers the top of the box in a leaktight manner. The upper part of the rod allows the user to consume the liquid by suction. The box fitted with this device can be closed. To do this, simply fit the upper part of the rod with the lug located on the top of the capsule. The device offers multiple advantages. It is light, unbreakable, compact, simple and usable by everyone. It facilitates the taking of the liquid and allows the box to be closed if the drink has not been completely consumed. It will thus be protected and will retain its initial characteristics longer.

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention.

La figure I représente la première partie du dispositif.Figure I shows the first part of the device.

La figure 2 représente la seconde partie du dispositif. avec la partie supérieure de la boîte boisson.Figure 2 shows the second part of the device. with the upper part of the beverage can.

La figure 3 représente le dispositif en situation sur la boîte boisson.FIG. 3 represents the device in situation on the beverage can.

La figure 4 représente le dispositif tel qu'il peut être conditionné lors de sa diffusion.FIG. 4 represents the device as it can be conditioned during its diffusion.

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif se compose de deux éléments qu'il faut préalablement assembler. La tige creuse(l) dispose de soufflets (4) et (5). Celle-ci rentre perpendiculairement dans la capsule (2) par l'orifice (3) jusqu'à venir en butée sur l'épaulement (6). Les pièces (1) et (2) sont alors assemblées de façon étanche. Les soufflets (4) et (5) de la tige (1) doivent être entiérement dépliés (figure 3). With reference to these drawings, the device consists of two elements which must be assembled beforehand. The hollow rod (l) has bellows (4) and (5). The latter enters perpendicularly into the capsule (2) through the orifice (3) until it abuts on the shoulder (6). The parts (1) and (2) are then assembled in a sealed manner. The bellows (4) and (5) of the rod (1) must be fully unfolded (Figure 3).

Une fois le dispositif assemblé, celui-ci peut être placé sur le dessus de la boîte boisson. Once the device has been assembled, it can be placed on top of the beverage can.

La partie infërieure (5) de la tige (1) doit être introduite par l'orifice (8) de la boîte boisson (7) (celle-ci ayant été préalablement ouverte).The lower part (5) of the rod (1) must be introduced through the orifice (8) of the beverage can (7) (the latter having been previously opened).

En exerçant une pression sur le tour de la capsule (2) celle-ci vient recouvrir le dessus de la boite boisson de façon étanche, le dispositif est alors en place (figure 3)
I a boisson peut être absorbée en aspirant par l'orifice (10) Le dispositif peut être rcfermé de façon étanche en plaçant I'extrémité(lO) de la tige (1) sur l'ergot (I I) de la capsule (2)
Selon une variante non illustrée, le dessus de la capsule (2) peut être percé d'un ou plusieurs petits trous. Cette variante permet d'équilibrer la pression dans la boîte lorsque l'utilisateur aspire la boisson.By applying pressure around the capsule (2), the latter covers the top of the beverage can in a sealed manner, the device is then in place (FIG. 3)
I drink can be absorbed by sucking through the orifice (10) The device can be closed tightly by placing the end (lO) of the rod (1) on the lug (II) of the capsule (2)
According to a variant not illustrated, the top of the capsule (2) can be pierced with one or more small holes. This variant balances the pressure in the can when the user sucks the drink.

Pour obtenir un encombrement réduit du dispositif lors de sa diffusion, la tige (1) peut être placée à l'intérieur de la capsule (2) (figure 4). To obtain a reduced bulk of the device during its diffusion, the rod (1) can be placed inside the capsule (2) (FIG. 4).

Sur le dessin de la tige (1), le nombre et la taille des soufflets sont donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs. In the drawing of the rod (1), the number and the size of the bellows are given by way of nonlimiting examples.

La taille du dispositif dépend de la boîte boisson. Le dispositif peut être réalisé en matière plastique. Cette matière doit être alimentaire, de préférence incassable, lavable et recyclable.  The size of the device depends on the beverage can. The device can be made of plastic. This material must be food, preferably unbreakable, washable and recyclable.
