EQUIPMENT FOR THE STORAGE AND USE OF BOTTLES

DESCRIPTION

Object

The present invention refers to an apparatus for the storage and use of baby bottles, the characteristics of which conform to the pre-characterizing part of the main claim.

Application sector

The field of application is therefore substantially directed to the refrigeration of bottles of baby bottles or respective baby food which must be stored for a certain period of time.

State of the art and respective problems

It is currently known that for use in environments where a large amount of ready-to-use baby bottles must be immediately available, very substantial problems arise, especially for newborn environments, nurseries, etc.

In these cases, the bottles are currently kept in a normal refrigerator, but the refrigerator is not very suitable for this function.

In fact, current refrigerators must be appropriately set for these foods so that if it is too cold or too hot, the food is not preserved in an optimal way. Furthermore, traditional refrigerators are designed to store a multiplicity of foods and are not designed adequately for this specific type of food and in particular for more or less important quantities.

Furthermore, the bottles to be served to newborns must currently be taken from the refrigerators and taken elsewhere or to reheating ovens or provide for heating in a more or less optimal way.

Other problems can also arise without adequate temperature control on the bottles, as, as is known, they are made of plastic and it is also known that at certain low temperatures plastic becomes brittle and at high temperatures it emits toxic substances, not to mention lethal. of newborns.

One of the biggest problems is to ensure a uniform temperature for all bottles, otherwise one could be too cold and one too hot with all the consequences of the case, which commonly happens in normal refrigerators, which on the contrary have for each area of the same. different temperature.

Task of the invention

The aim of the invention is to solve the aforementioned problems and drawbacks by realizing a specific apparatus which is particularly functional and suitable for performing said function.

Solution of the problem and identification of the inventive features

The problem is solved with the features of the main claim.

The sub-claims represent advantageous preferential solutions that provide better performance.

Benefits

In this way you have the advantage of being able to store the baby bottles in a rational and adequately refrigerated environment and at the time of use arrange directly in the required place and promptly and at the exact desired temperature all the desired quantity of baby bottles ready for use and therefore without the need. of separate preparation and with the absolute safety not only of the required temperature, but also of the homogeneity of the temperature inside the whole food.

Description of the preferential solution

For a better understanding, the invention is described in a preferential solution with the aid of the attached figures, where:

- Fig. 1.- represents the sectional view of the front of the storage equipment on rotating wheels with above three ready-to-use heaters for heating the bottles taken from the refrigerator compartment below, for immediate use on site; - Fig. 2.- represents the side view;

- Fig. 3.- represents the top view;

- Fig. 5.- represents the front view as shown in Fig. 1;

- Fig. 4.- represents the vertical cross-sectional view according to the plane A-A of Fig. 5;

- Fig. 6.- represents the schematic sectional view of the interior of the refrigerated storage compartment with the air circulation flow;

- Fig. 7.- represents the horizontal cross-sectional view according to plane B-B of Fig. 5 where you can see the central heat exchange separator compartment for the safe and uniform refrigeration of all baby bottles.

Detailed description of the invention In relation to the figures

In accordance with the figures, it can be seen that the invention refers to an apparatus for storing baby bottles (1) on revolving wheels (121) and with an upper surface for supporting bottle heating means (11) with a flap that can be opened downwards forming a top (111) for extracting heated bottles by means of a trolley.

Baby bottles being able to be bottles eg. with milk or other for children and / or babies and / or etc.

The container has two opposite access doors (122) and a double internal compartment divided by a refrigerated air exchange wall (124) in an intermediate structure (21) including respective finned exchanger (22) to let the air circulated by ventilation above (124) in the partition compartment.

The exchanger (evaporator) (2) is operated by the underlying compressor (C).

In the dividing wall, at the bottom, there are air intake slots (123) and at the top there are air delivery slots (123).

The air flow as claimed is in an opposed circulatory vortex starting from the dividing wall upwards and away, downwards on the sides and downwards and then flows back from the bottom upwards to the center, creating a counter-clockwise and a clockwise circulation. to and from the center.

The wheels conveniently have brake system.

The apparatus is designed to conveniently operate between 4 and -2 ° C.

As mentioned, the compressor area is below the storage compartment.

In this way, complete mobility of the apparatus is guaranteed, a uniform and constant temperature, for all the stored containers an easy and prompt withdrawal, heating and use thanks also to the heating equipment above.

Such a storage system can contain for example up to 250 bottles of 240 cc at a uniform temperature of 4 ° C on all the bottles that will be conveniently stored in sliding grids with a filament spaced apart to allow the air to pass between them. they.

Around the top there is a handrail or bumper that acts as a handle, preventing damage to the structure.

The two front doors are basically book-like opening with rotation up to 270 °.

Advantageously, both the control and regulation means (temperature / thermostat) and the internal temperature indicator are provided externally at the front, with the use of said thermometer / thermostat.

The power supply is provided by a spiral cable.

Claims (1)

CLAIMS 1.- Equipment for the storage and use of bottles of baby bottles and / or milk for children and / or infants and / or premature babies having at least a refrigerated containment area for bottles with front access for storage and withdrawal, characterized by the fact of including: a) said refrigerated containment area is divided by a vertical heat exchange wall (21), which forms two opposing containment chambers accessible from the front by opposing leaf doors (122); b) said chambers being with refrigerated air circulation respectively in an anticlockwise and clockwise direction (F); c) the refrigeration system (2) in said partition wall (21) being placed in operational circulation by compressor system (C) in the underlying and / or rear compartment; d) said apparatus being on movement wheels (121). 2.- Apparatus according to the preceding claim, characterized in that said wheels (121) are pivoting. 3.- Apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that at least one of said wheels (121) comprises a braking means for locking. 4.- Apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that said intermediate wall has opposite upper air delivery compartments (124) and opposite lower air intake compartments (123). 5.- Apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that it comprises an upper surface for positioning bottle heating means (11). 6.- Apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that it comprises an upper surface for positioning means for heating baby bottles (11) with flap door (111) and for extracting heated baby bottles on a removable trolley. 7.- Apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims 5-6, characterized in that it comprises an upper plane for positioning at least three devices for heating baby bottles (11).
