FR2935962A1 - Fragmented modular container/can for containing e.g. beverage, has fragmentation/defragmentation device placed at junction of magnetized male and female parts for fragmenting/defragmenting container/can portions - Google Patents

Abstract

The container/can has modules assembled by magnetized male and female parts. The magnetized male parts (A) are composed of magnetized piece with variable geometry. The female parts are obtained by embossing or injection process. A fragmentation/defragmentation device is placed at a junction of the male and female parts for fragmenting/defragmenting container/can portions. The device is realized by magnetizing internal walls of a container/can or by installing a plastic crimp part on a circumference of the container/can.

Description

The present invention relates to a beverage can made of aluminum, plastic, or any other materials or alloys known today that can enter into its composition and intended for carbonated or non-carbonated beverages, alcoholic or alcoholic, or any other liquid The traditional cans marketed to date are made of a cylinder closed by a lid with a lid to consume the said drink.

The device according to the invention gives the possibility of fragmenting said bobbin into two, three modular parts that can contain two, three different drinks or liquids of a certain mark. By this device, the cans can be composed of two or three compartments having their own opening system for consuming the beverage as indicated in patent 0707065000 which specifies: Variant 1: Three parts having respective volumes 1/3, 1 / 3, 1/3, Variant 2: Three parts having respective volumes 1/2, 1/4, 1/4, Variant 3: Two parts having respective volumes 1/2, 1/2 ,. Each variant can have a radius from 0.5 to infinity and a height from 0.5 to infinity. According to the invention, the device keeping the sub-parts together to form a homogeneous whole is composed of a male part and a female part all, two of various geometric shapes and sizes distributed according to several diagrams (drawings 1). -14, A, B, C, D)

The male part is magnetized on its outer end. This magnetized portion can be obtained by embossing the vertical partition of the bobbin made of a magnetic ferous material, or obtained by gluing, welding or any other fastening respecting the rules of the art of a related part magnetized to the part female that comes to bear on the vertical partition of said vertical can (drawings 1,2,3,9,10,11,14, A and C). The female part stamped on the bobbin fraction facing the male part contains a hollow material at the bottom of the cavity. The latter is obtained either by embossing the vertical partition of the can portion constituted by a ferous material, or by gluing, welding, or any other current fastening means 40 spying the rules of a workpiece or any other magnetizable part (drawings 4,5,6,7,8,12,13, B and D).
