Description

Contenant poreux fermé lestéWeighted closed porous container

La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour lester et immerger complètement des contenants poreux fermés (1) flottants, dans un liquide, enveloppant des produits destinés à être infuser ou diffuser dans ce liquide.The present invention relates to a device for ballasting and completely immersing floating closed porous containers (1) in a liquid, enveloping products intended to be infused or diffused in this liquid.

Les contenants poreux fermés (1) enveloppant des produits sont traditionnellement flottants et n’offrent pas une infusion ou diffusion optimale lorsqu’ils sont mis dans un liquide. Il faut pour y arriver, plonger ces contenants à l’aide d’un ustensile telle qu’une cuillère, pince, tige, ou autre procédé manuel. De plus, il faut répéter ces gestes tout au long de l’infusion ou de la diffusion. Cette intervention tend à gêner le consommateur qui ne peut alors profiter pleinement et sereinement lorsqu’il s’agit d’une boisson.Closed porous containers (1) enclosing products are traditionally floating and do not offer optimal infusion or diffusion when placed in a liquid. To achieve this, you must immerse these containers using a utensil such as a spoon, tongs, rod, or other manual process. In addition, you must repeat these actions throughout the infusion or diffusion. This intervention tends to annoy the consumer who cannot then fully and peacefully enjoy a drink.

Le dispositif selon l’invention permet de remédier à cet inconvénient. Ce dispositif est constitué d’un contenant poreux fermé (1) associé à un ou plusieurs poids enfermés (2) dans celui-ci ; on l'appellera « contenant poreux fermé lesté ». Ce contenant poreux fermé (1) peut être de toutes matières souples ou rigides. Le ou les poids enfermés (2) dans le contenant servant de lestage peut être de valeurs variables, de formes diverses tridimensionnelles, en métal inoxydable telles que des billes, des pavés, des pyramides, des plaques, des cylindres, ou toutes autres formes et de matières non métalliques telle que des pierres ou toute autres matières naturelles destinées au lestage du contenant poreux fermé (1). Le lestage est compatible avec la consommation alimentaire mais non comestible et non toxique comme par exemple l’inox. Une variante de ce dispositif consiste à solidariser le contenant poreux fermé (1) avec le ou les poids solidaires (3) servant de lestage à l’intérieur ou à l’extérieur du contenant. Le poids du lestage peut varier en fonction de la capacité du récipient recevant le contenu enfermé dans le contenant poreux fermé (1) lesté.The device according to the invention makes it possible to remedy this drawback. This device consists of a closed porous container (1) associated with one or more weights enclosed (2) therein; we will call it “weighted closed porous container”. This closed porous container (1) can be made of any flexible or rigid materials. The weight(s) enclosed (2) in the container serving as ballast can be of variable values, of various three-dimensional shapes, made of stainless metal such as balls, blocks, pyramids, plates, cylinders, or any other shapes and non-metallic materials such as stones or any other natural materials intended to ballast the closed porous container (1). The ballast is compatible with food consumption but not edible and non-toxic, such as stainless steel. A variant of this device consists of securing the closed porous container (1) with the attached weight(s) (3) serving as ballast inside or outside the container. The weight of the ballast may vary depending on the capacity of the container receiving the contents enclosed in the closed porous container (1) weighted.

Ainsi quand l’utilisateur introduit son contenant poreux fermé (1) lesté enveloppant des produits dans un récipient contenant un liquide, le contenant poreux fermé (1) lesté est immergé complètement dans le liquide. Il peut même toucher le fond du récipient grâce à la possibilité du choix du ou des poids enfermés dans le contenant poreux fermé (1) permettant le lestage voulu. Le lestage peut être réglable en fonction de la profondeur de l’immersion désirée.So when the user introduces his weighted closed porous container (1) enveloping products into a container containing a liquid, the weighted closed porous container (1) is completely immersed in the liquid. It can even touch the bottom of the container thanks to the possibility of choosing the weight(s) enclosed in the closed porous container (1) allowing the desired ballast. The ballast can be adjustable depending on the depth of the desired immersion.

Prenons l’exemple d’un sachet de thé plongé dans une tasse d’eau chaude: le sachet remonte la plupart du temps à la surface de l’eau et flotte continuellement pendant sa consommation. Pour y remédier le consommateur intervient en plongeant avec une cuillère ou un autre ustensile le sachet de thé, ou tire à plusieurs reprises sur le fil relié au sachet de thé en sortant le sachet de thé et le replongeant à plusieurs reprises, pour une infusion optimale. Il doit en outre repousser ou retirer complètement le sachet de thé qui se présente la plupart du temps devant sa bouche lors de sa consommation afin de boire sa boisson sans gêne.Take the example of a tea bag immersed in a cup of hot water: the bag rises to the surface of the water most of the time and floats continuously during consumption. To remedy this, the consumer intervenes by dipping the tea bag with a spoon or another utensil, or pulls several times on the thread connected to the tea bag, taking out the tea bag and plunging it back in several times, for optimal infusion. . He must also push back or completely remove the tea bag which most of the time appears in front of his mouth during consumption in order to drink his drink without discomfort.

Le dispositif selon l’invention permet au sachet de thé lesté de rester en totale immersion ou au fond de la tasse durant toute la phase de consommation du thé. Le consommateur n’a plus besoin de plonger le sachet de thé manuellement ou à l’aide d’une cuillère pour que l’infusion soit optimale et ne sera plus gêné par la présence du sachet de thé près de sa bouche qui perturbe le passage fluide de la boisson quand il la boit.The device according to the invention allows the weighted tea bag to remain completely immersed or at the bottom of the cup throughout the tea consumption phase. The consumer no longer needs to dip the tea bag manually or with a spoon for the infusion to be optimal and will no longer be bothered by the presence of the tea bag near their mouth which disrupts the passage. fluid from the drink when he drinks it.

Ainsi le système apporte un coté pratique et facile d’utilisation sans manœuvre extérieure supplémentaire.The system therefore provides practicality and ease of use without additional external operation.

Le dispositif selon l’invention est particulièrement destiné aux sachets de thé présentement distribués dans le commerce.The device according to the invention is particularly intended for tea bags currently distributed commercially.
