Description

  The present invention relates to a screw-type beverage cooler for fixing a cooling agent introduced into a plastic bottle using a male screw at a mouth portion of a plastic bottle and cooling a beverage directly from the inside.

  Conventionally, in order to keep a beverage in a plastic bottle carried for a long period of time, it has been known to store it in a cooler box containing a cryogen or to use a bag with a heat insulating type cryogen that wraps the plastic bottle. In any case, the beverage was indirectly cooled or indirectly cooled from the outside of the container. In these cold-retaining methods, the container, the cold-retaining agent, and the outside air are arranged in this order with respect to the beverage to be cooled, and the largest temperature difference occurs between the cold-retaining agent and the outside air. For this reason, more than half of the cooling effect of the cooling agent is used to cool the outside air.

  In some cases, a direct cooling method in which a cooling agent is introduced into a PET bottle is also proposed. However, the cryogen charged in the interior was not fixed and floated. For this reason, when the cold-retaining agent is small, there is a drawback in that it is difficult to take out the cold-retaining agent when the beverage is consumed, and the action of coming out to the mouth and drinking is inhibited.

  In general, beverages in PET bottles are cooled from the outside of the container. However, in the case of a simple cooler represented by a cryogen or the like, indirect cooling is inefficient for beverages because of its low cooling capacity. .

  In addition, a cooling container larger than the plastic bottle container is required. The capacity of the container increases in proportion to the number and volume.

  In the above method, when drinking, the plastic bottle is taken out from the cooling container. Therefore, it was also a problem that the beverage became warm while drinking.

In order to cool directly, the cooling agent put into the inside of the PET bottle was not fixed. For this reason, when it is small, the action of coming out to the mouth when drinking a beverage is hindered, and when it is large, it is difficult to take out the refrigerant.
In view of the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, the present invention is a screw-type beverage that can be cooled directly and can be cooled directly, and can be used for drinking or sealing a beverage in a PET bottle while attached. The purpose is to provide cold insulation.

  In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a cylindrical cap mounting portion and drinking mouth having a male screw of the same size as the plastic bottle mouth portion on the outside, and a female screw of the same size as the plastic bottle cap on the inside. A cylindrical plastic bottle fixing part formed with a part is provided so as to have a vertical structure relationship. A connecting support column is provided from the inside of the cap mounting portion, and a cryogen case in which a cryogen is enclosed is provided at the tip. There are three connecting struts, and a screw type beverage cooler is configured by providing a space between them and functioning as a beverage through hole. Use this by attaching it to a plastic bottle.

As is clear from the above description, the present invention has the following effects.
(1) The beverage, the container, and the outside air are arranged in this order so as to wrap the cryogen, and almost all of the cooling capacity of the cryogen can be spent on the beverage. Also, when viewed from the viewpoint of temperature, the cooler having the lowest temperature and the outside air having the highest temperature are at the opposite electrode, and the heat conduction route is not wasted and efficient.

(2) According to the above (1), the plastic bottle beverage can be cooled in a short time.

(3) Therefore, what is kept cool by the cooler box is not a plastic bottle but only the screw type beverage cooler according to the present invention. Therefore, the capacity of the cooler box is not proportional to the number of PET bottles. It is sufficient that only the cooler has a capacity that can keep the required number of coolers.

(4) Since the cold insulator is fixed in a state where the beverage passes through the plastic bottle container, it does not get in the way when drinking.

(5) Since it is possible to drink beverages with the cold insulation device attached, continuous cold insulation is possible.

(6) With the cooler attached, it can be sealed with a cap of a plastic bottle, and it is possible to keep cold without leaking the internal beverage even while being carried.

(7) Removal of the cold insulation tool from the container is easy by simply turning the screw of the cold insulation tool.

(8) The cold insulator can be used repeatedly by re-cooling.

(9) Since the cold insulator does not melt into the beverage like ice, it does not harm the beverage taste.

It is a front view of the present invention. It is a top view of the present invention. It is AA sectional drawing of FIG. It is an assembly drawing with the plastic bottle and cap at the time of implementation. It is a cooling image figure in implementation. It is a seal and carrying state figure in implementation. It is a flow diagram of a beverage being implemented.

Hereafter, although it is a well-known product, since it relates to this invention, it demonstrates easily about a plastic bottle.
Generally known PET bottles are provided with a small-diameter mouth opening at the top, and a male screw is formed on the outer periphery of the mouth. Also, a female screw is formed inside the sealing cap, and can be sealed by turning to the male screw of the aforementioned mouth.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3.
(A) A cylindrical cap mounting portion 1 and a drinking mouth 2 in which a male screw having the same size as the plastic bottle mouth portion is formed on the outside, and a cylindrical shape in which a female screw portion having the same size as the plastic bottle cap is formed on the inner wall. The plastic bottle fixing part 3 is provided so as to have a vertical structure relationship.
(B) A connection support 8 is provided on the inner wall of the cap mounting portion 1.
(C) The cryogen case 4 is shaped like a rod that can be introduced into the inside of the PET bottle, and is provided with a connecting column 5 at the top.
(D) The rod-shaped cold insulating agent 6 is stored and installed in the cold insulating agent case 4.
(E) The connecting column 5 is connected to the connecting column support 8 through the inside of the cylindrical plastic bottle fixing part 3 from the lower side.
(F) The space between the connection struts 5 and the plastic bottle fixing portion 3 is a beverage through hole 7.
The present invention has the above structure.

Hereinafter, a method for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 4, 5, 6 and 7.
First, the present invention 9 is put in a freezer and the cryogen 6 is frozen. The seal of the plastic bottle 10 to be cooled is opened and the cap 11 is removed. As shown in FIG. 4, the present invention 9 is introduced from the mouth portion of the plastic bottle 10 with the cooler case 4 facing downward. When the base is introduced, the plastic bottle fixing part 3 is pressed against the male screw part of the 10 bottles of the plastic bottle, and is turned and fixed. At this point, cooling of the beverage 12 inside the plastic bottle 10 is started as shown in the image of FIG. The previously removed cap 11 is pressed against the cap mounting portion 1 on which the male screw is formed, and is closed by closing. In this state, as shown in FIG. 6, since the beverage 12 does not leak from the plastic bottle 10, it can be carried and stored. Since the flow path of the beverage is secured as shown in FIG. 7, when drinking the beverage 12, it is possible to open the cap 11 and drink from the drinking mouth 2. Since the present invention 9 is still attached while drinking, cooling is continued. When the present invention 9 is removed from the plastic bottle 10, the present invention 9 is simply pulled out when the plastic bottle fixing portion 3 is turned and removed from the screw. The present invention 9 can be washed as a whole. It can be used repeatedly by freezing it again.

  The present invention is used in the field of cooling or keeping a plastic bottle.
