ITMI940358U1 - REMOVABLE SEPARATOR FOR TRAYS OR SIMILAR SUPPORTS FOR MOBILE AND SIMILAR REFRIGERATORS - Google Patents

Abstract

The separator (3) can be removably coupled to trays and similar supports (1) of objects such as bottles, canned goods, cans, cans or containers in general, supports that are mounted or mountable in refrigerators, furniture or similar. it is not only that of avoiding knocks between the containers, often fragile, but also that of facilitating the user taking and removing the containers, it is formed by a single elastically deformable body, substantially with a closed ring, comprising an arched lower part (3A), an upper part (3B) substantially in a W shape, and an intermediate part having opposite recesses (3C) for snap engagement with corresponding formations (2A) provided on the edges of the tray or similar support (1).

Description

Description of a utility model to name:

The present utility model refers to a separator intended for trays or similar supports used in refrigerators or furniture in general to separate containers of any kind from each other, such as bottles, canned goods, jars, cans, etc.

In the furniture and refrigerators sector, in particular provided, generally on the doors, with trays or supports for containers of any nature or shape, there is a need to keep the containers placed in the same support separate for various reasons, such as for example the annoying noise produced by containers hitting each other both when the door is opened or closed, the possibility of breakage in the case of glass containers, a certain difficulty in inserting or extracting the containers when they are "compressed" against each other. other.

A separator capable of obviating these drawbacks must, in turn, satisfy a series of requirements such as, for example, an extremely low cost, easy adaptability and extractability, and adequate stability once placed on site.

The spacer of the invention responds to these requirements: made up of a single piece of plastic material, having a closed ring shape and having a lower arched area, an upper area substantially W-shaped and an intermediate area with opposite recesses for snap engagement with the edges of the container holder.

The innovation will be better understood from the following detailed description, provided purely by way of example and therefore not limitative of one of its preferred embodiments illustrated in the attached drawing, in which:

Figure 1 shows a front view of the separator;

Figure 2 shows a view of the same socket in the direction of the arrow A of Figure 1, and

Figure 3 shows a perspective view of the separator mounted on a tray or container support.

With reference to the figures, 1 indicates a tray or support for containers in general, intended to be constrained or carried by one with 1 projections 2A and 3D sides on the upper contour of the sides 2 of the support 1, as clearly seen in the figure 1. Obviously, a similar procedure is used to remove the separator.

Claims (3)

CLAIMS 1. Separator for containers supported or resting on supports provided in furniture, refrigerators and the like, on their doors, characterized by the fact that it consists of a single piece of plastic material, which has a closed ring shape (3) and which has a lower arcuate region (3A), an upper region (3B) substantially W-shaped and an intermediate region (3C) with opposite recesses for snap engagement with corresponding formations (2A) of the support (1). 2. Separator according to claim 1, characterized in that the intermediate zone (3C) has substantially coplanar fins or sides (3D) directed outwards. 3. Separator according to claim 1, characterized in that the upper zone <3B) has an intermediate cusp (3E) of greater height than the contiguous sides (3G) of the W. door of a piece of furniture or a refrigerator. This support 1 has two parallel sides, opposite each other, having longitudinal enlargements 2A at their upper ends. The separator of the innovation, indicated as a whole with 3, is made of plastic material, has a closed ring conformation and is elastically deformable thanks to its particular conformation which provides a lower arched area 3A, an upper area 3B, substantially in a W shape, and an area intermediate marked by two opposite recesses, facing outwards, indicated with 3C, and by two 3D sides facing outwards, coplanar between them. The upper zone 3B has in particular a central cusp 3E, two depressions 3F at the base of the same and two end sides 3G, which terminate in the sides 3D and which, with the cusp 3E, originate the substantially W-shaped conformation. The placement of the spacer 3 in the support 1 consists of: pressing the cusp 3E so as to slightly narrow the intermediate area of the spacer, that is the recess 3C, and partially inserting the separator between the sides 2 until the 3C recesses
