Description

{HOLDER TO PROTECT BEVERAGE CONTAINER}

The present invention relates to a protective container for protecting a beverage container.

In recent years, drinking water has been stored in various forms of beverage containers to carry the contents for busy modern people and to take the contents anytime and anywhere.

When the user performs outdoor activities such as climbing, fishing, sports, etc., the beverage container may be broken or distorted from the impact from the outside, so that the beverage container can not protect the beverage.

On the other hand, a large amount of dew can be condensed on the outer surface of the beverage container due to the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the beverage container, which is stored cool in the refrigerator. When a user puts a cold beverage container in a bag or carrying it while holding it in his hand, there is the inconvenience that condensation water may wet the surrounding objects or hands, or dirt may adhere to the beverage container.

The conventional protective container for protecting the beverage container can be used for cold storage and warming, but it is not possible to protect the inner container due to an external impact, and there is no method for removing water condensed in the inside during cold storage.

1 is a side view and a sectional view of a protective container according to an embodiment of the present invention;

FIG. 1 (a) is a side view of a protective container according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1 (b) is a sectional view of a protective container according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, a protective container 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a body 110 and a circumference plate 120.

The body 110 may be provided with an inner space for receiving the beverage container.

Here, the beverage container is preferably understood as a broad concept including a beverage container formed of a material such as plastic, glass, metal, and the like. For example, the beverage container may be a PET bottle or a glass bottle capable of accommodating a drinking water volume of 170 ml to 500 ml. The form of the beverage container may be a round-shaped PET bottle or a square shape (e.g., samdasoo).

Illustratively, although the body portion 110 of the protective container 100 according to one embodiment of the present invention is shown as having a circular cross-section (e.g., cylindrical shape), the body portion 110 may have a rectangular and polygonal cross- . The body 110 may be made of polyurethane. By using a polyurethane material for the body portion 110, it can be convenient for carrying. The cross section and the material of the body 110 of the protective vessel 100 are not limited thereto.

A circumferential plate 120 may be provided in the inner space of the body 110.

The circumferential plate 120 is provided in the form of a ring in which a hollow region is formed in the inner space of the body portion so as to form a band along the circumference. In addition, the circumferential plate 120 has a bendable material. In addition, a plurality of circumferential plates 120 may be arranged with an interval in the vertical direction.

Illustratively, referring to FIG. 3, the circumferential plate 120 may be in the form of a washer. In addition, the perimeter plate 120 may be made of a silicon material. The circumferential plate 120 may be made of a flexible material having a flexural elasticity and a bending restoring force having functions corresponding to those of the silicone material.

The circumferential plate 120 may be a corrugated sheet which is alternately bent in a vertical direction and extended along the circumferential direction. For example, referring to Figures 1 to 3, the corrugated sheet may be in the form of a wave. Since the circumferential plate 120 is provided in the form of a corrugated plate, the stretching elastic force in the circumferential direction can be securely secured, and the circumferential plate 120 can be more closely attached to the beverage container. For example, when the protective container is turned upside down so that the lower end of the body 110 is turned upside down, the circumferential plate 120 prevents the backflow of moisture formed in the inner space when the body 110 is turned upside down have.

The inner circumferential surface of the circumferential plate 120 and the inner circumferential surface of the body 110 may be connected to each other while keeping the airtightness between the circumferential plate 120 and the inner surface of the body 110.

The inner surface of the circumferential plate 120 and the body portion 110 can be joined with the inner surface of the container while maintaining airtightness so that condensed water does not flow out to the outer wall of the beverage container. For example, when the user tilts the beverage contained in the inner space of the body part 110, the moisture formed on the outer wall of the beverage container is absorbed by the inner surface of the peripheral part 120 and the body part 100, It is possible to prevent moisture and moisture from falling out of the protective container 100 through the upper opening of the body 110. In another example, the bottom of the body 110 may be sloped upward so that when the protective container is tilted, the moisture formed in the inner space may be prevented from flowing backward.

The circumferential plate 120 may be a spacing member for keeping the beverage container disposed in the inner space of the body 110 apart from the inner surface of the body 110. [

In addition, the peripheral plate 120 may be formed so that the beverage container does not flow when the beverage container is housed in the internal space of the body portion 110.

FIG. 2 is a three-dimensional view showing a state in which the lower body and the upper body of the protective vessel according to the embodiment of the present invention are vertically cut (the lower end is turned upside down). FIG. 3 is a cross- And the upper body (the lower end is turned upside down) of the protective container according to the second embodiment of the present invention is viewed in an oblique view from above.

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the body 110 may include an upper body 111 and a lower body 112.

The body 110 may include a lower body 112 having an upper opening at an upper end thereof and an upper body 111 having a lower opening at a lower end thereof and detachably coupled to the lower body 112.

The upper body 111 and the lower body 112 are separated from each other so that the body 110 can be easily accommodated inside the protective container 100. For example, the upper body 111 may be a portion corresponding to a size (height) of 1/3 of the entire size (height) of the body 110. However, the height setting of the upper body 111 and the lower body 112 is not limited to this, and will be described later in more detail.

The inner space of the body 110 may be a space formed by the upper opening of the lower body 112 and the lower opening of the upper body 111 facing each other and communicating with each other.

At an opposite end of one of the upper body 111 and the lower body 112, a step is formed along the circumference, and at the opposite end of the other of the upper body 111 and the lower body 112, A protrusion can be formed.

In the case of the upper body 111, the lower end is an opposite end (the end opposite to the upper end of the lower body), and the lower end of the lower body 112 is the opposite end (the end opposite to the lower end of the upper body) .

For example, referring to FIG. 1, the step formed along the circumference of the lower body 112 may be formed in a symmetrical shape of a crescent shape or a crescent shape. On the other hand, the step formed along the circumference of the upper body 111 may be formed in a symmetrical shape of a letter shape or a letter shape. For example, referring to FIG. 1, a lower end (opposite end) of the upper body 111 may be formed with a step along the outer periphery and a protrusion relatively protruding inwardly along the periphery. Conversely, on the upper end (opposite end) of the lower body 112, a step may be formed along the inner circumference and a protrusion relatively protruding on the outer side may be formed along the circumference. The lower end of the upper body 111 is engaged with the projection of the upper end of the lower body 112 and the projection of the lower end of the upper body 111 is engaged with the lower end of the lower body 112, So that the upper body 111 and the lower body 112 can be separated from each other in a detachable manner. However, the separable coupling type of the upper body 111 and the lower body 112 is not limited thereto.

According to the engaging engagement, the upper body 111 and the lower body 112 can be separated from each other and close to each other at the time of engagement, so that the effect of inserting the beverage stored in the beverage container can be maintained more efficiently. In addition, by such engagement, the side effect of separating the upper body 111 and the lower body 112 from each other by the pressure exerted from the outside can be efficiently compensated.

When a plurality of circumferential plates 120 are disposed in the upper body 111, the width of a blank area of the circumferential plate 120 located relatively above the width of the blank area of the circumferential plate 120 located at a relatively lower position, Can be formed small. In other words, when a plurality of circumferential plates 120 are disposed inside the upper body 111, the circumferential plates 120 positioned relatively higher than the circumferential plates 120 positioned at a relatively lower position may be more inwardly protruded have.

In the case where a plurality of circumferential plates 120 are disposed inside the lower body 112, a space area of the circumferential plate 120 located relatively below the width of the space area of the circumferential plate 120 positioned at a relatively upper position, May be formed to have a small width. In other words, when a plurality of circumferential plates 120 are disposed inside the lower body 112, the circumferential plates 120 positioned relatively below the relatively upper circumferential plate 120 may be more inwardly projected have.

Referring to FIG. 1B, the plurality of circumferential plates 120 disposed inside the upper body 111 are arranged such that the circumferential plate 120 disposed on the upper side is gradually reduced in width (More gradually protruding toward the inner side). In addition, the plurality of circumferential plates 120 disposed inside the lower body 112 are formed such that the width of the vacant area gradually decreases (gradually inward toward the inner side) .

The plurality of circumferential plates 120 are formed such that the width of the empty area gradually decreases (gradually inwardly protruding), so that beverage containers of various shapes and sizes being sold on the market can be stored.

4 is a conceptual diagram showing an embodiment utilizing a protective container according to an embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 4 (a) is a view showing an example in which a beverage container such as a PET bottle is accommodated in a space inside the protective container according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 (b) Fig. 2 is a view showing an example in which a beverage container in the form of a can is received in the container.

At least a part of the circumferential plates 120 disposed on the upper body 111 may be provided to be bent upward due to the space occupied by the beverage container when the beverage container is disposed in the inner space. At least a part of the circumferential plates 120 disposed on the lower body 112 may be provided to be bent downward due to the space occupied by the beverage container when the beverage container is disposed in the inner space.

4 (a), since the beverage container is inserted downward into the inner space of the lower body 112 through the upper opening on the upper side of the lower body 112, At least a part of the circumferential plates 120 disposed in the beverage container 120 can be bent downward corresponding to the direction in which the beverage container is inserted. On the other hand, since the beverage container is relatively upwardly inserted into the upper body 111, at least a part of the circumferential plates 120 disposed on the upper body 111 are bent upward in accordance with the direction in which the beverage container is inserted Can be. At this time, the peripheral plate 120 may be a member that supports the outer surface of the beverage container in a bent state. The upper body 111 and the circumferential plates 120 of the lower body 112 are bent in directions opposite to each other so that the container can be effectively protected not only by impact applied from the left and right but also impact applied from above and below.

Any one of the circumferential plates 120 disposed on the lower body 112 may be located below the circumferential plate that supports the bottom surface of the beverage container and supports the outer surface of the beverage container.

For example, referring to FIG. 4 (b), a can having a height relatively smaller than the height of the inner space of the body portion 110 of the protective container 100 is provided in the inner space of the body portion 110 The lower portion (lower surface) of the beverage container can be supported by any one of the plurality of circumferential plates 120 without any lowering when the lower portion of the beverage container reaches any one of the plurality of circumferential plates 120. That is, any one of the plurality of circumferential plates 120 disposed on the lower body 112 may be a member for supporting the lower surface of the beverage container in a bent state.

The upper body 111 is provided at a height such that when the upper body 111 is separated from the lower body 112, the upper end of the beverage container accommodated in the body 110 is exposed above the upper end of the lower body 112 .

The height of the upper body 111 and the height of the lower body 112 are set so that the upper end of the beverage container is exposed above the upper end of the lower body 112, When the user takes the beverage water disposed in the inner space of the lower body 112 after removing the beverage container 111 or when the beverage container is taken out from the lower body 112 and separated out of the protective vessel 100 can do.

The position and the number of the circumferential plates 120 disposed on the upper body 111 are set such that when the beverage container is disposed in the lower body 112 and joined to the upper body 111, At least one of the plates 120 may be set so as to press down the beverage container with a reaction force in an upwardly deflected state.

4, the circumferential plate 120 disposed on the upper body 111 can downward push the beverage container housed in the inner space of the protective vessel 100. As shown in FIG. Also, the circumferential plate 120 disposed on the lower body 112 can press the beverage container accommodated in the space inside the protective container 100 upward. Accordingly, the beverage container disposed inside the body 110 can be buffered and protected even in the vertical direction. Thus, the protective container 100 can protect most of the beverage containers on the market more efficiently, even if the shape and size of the beverage container are different.

The number of the circumferential plates 120 disposed inside the lower body 112 may be set to be greater than the number of the circumferential plates 120 disposed inside the upper body 111. [

By setting the number of the peripheral plates 120 relatively to the lower body 112, the peripheral plate 120 located in the lower body 112 can more strongly support the beverage container.

According to such a protective vessel 100, the beverage container can be firmly accommodated in a compact structure. In addition, the protective container 100 can more safely protect the beverage stored and stored in the accommodated beverage container.

The body portion 110 may include a moisture discharge device capable of selectively discharging moisture formed in the inner space.

The body 110 has a connection passage through which the inner bottom surface communicates with the outside, and the water discharge device may be a unit that opens and closes the connection passage.

Illustratively, it is preferable that the water discharging device is provided on the lower side of the lower body 112 because the moisture inside the container naturally collects downward when the protective container is raised.

On the other hand, a heat insulating cover for blocking heat exchange may be formed on the outer side of the body 110. The heat insulating cover has a structure in which a heat insulating material is formed in a cylindrical shape and covers the outside of the body portion 110. As the heat insulating material, polyurethane, polyethylene, or the like can be used. Such a heat insulating cover can improve the heat insulating efficiency at the time of warming the beverage.

It will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the foregoing description of the embodiments is for illustrative purposes and that those skilled in the art can easily modify the invention without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof.
