Description
Foreliggende oppfinnelse angår en anordning - en drikketut for en drikkevareboks - for å sikre hygienen ved drikke av drikkevarebokser. Drikketuten reiser seg opp når dekselet over munnstykket blir trukket av og tilgang til boksens innhold er kun gjennom drikketutens munnstykke. Drikketuten lages av elastisk materiale etter" Forskrift om materialer og gjenstander i kontakt med næringsmidler av 21.12.1993 nr. 1381". Drikketutens åpning er i størrelse tilnærmet lik åpningen på 33 cl flasker for brus og øl som brukes i dag. The present invention relates to a device - a drinking spout for a beverage can - to ensure hygiene when drinking from beverage cans. The drinking spout rises when the cover over the mouthpiece is pulled off and access to the can's contents is only through the drinking spout's mouthpiece. The drinking spout is made of elastic material according to "Regulation on materials and objects in contact with foodstuffs of 21.12.1993 no. 1381". The opening of the drinking spout is roughly the same size as the opening of 33 cl bottles for soda and beer that are used today.
Drikkevarebokser kan under transport og lagring bli utsatt for utvendig forurensning og det er risiko for at en drikkevareboks kan komme frem til brukeren i en lite tiltrekkende og i en uhygienisk tilstand. Ved drikke av drikkevarebokser slik de er utformet i dag må man sette boksen inntil munnen med risiko for overføring av smittepartikler som måtte være utenpå boksen. Boksåpningen har meget skarpe kanter som kan forårsake kuttskader på forbrukerens lepper. Mange drikker av disse grunner ikke av boks. Drikketut kan man også få ved prinsipp som er brukt bl.a. på oljekanner, hvor man trekker tuten opp av kannen og skrur av tutlokket. Denne løsningen er hygienisk dårligere da tuten kan bli trykket ned igjen uten lokket og forurensing fra kannetoppen kan komme inn i kannen. Overtrykk i boksen, som man har ved de fleste drikkevarebokser, kan presse en slik tut opp før det er ønskelig. Beverage cans can be exposed to external contamination during transport and storage and there is a risk that a beverage can reaches the user in an unattractive and unhygienic state. When drinking from beverage cans as they are designed today, one must put the can close to the mouth, with the risk of transferring infectious particles that may be on the outside of the can. The can opening has very sharp edges that can cause cuts to the consumer's lips. Many people do not drink from cans for these reasons. A drinking spout can also be obtained by principle which is used i.a. on oil jugs, where you pull the spout out of the jug and unscrew the spout cap. This solution is hygienically worse as the spout can be pressed down again without the lid and contamination from the jug top can enter the jug. Overpressure in the can, which is the case with most beverage cans, can push such a spout up before it is desired.
Det finnes et United States Patent 4,407,425 datert Oet. 4.1983 og et US Patent 6.237.817 B 1 datert May 29. 2001, som begge viser en lignende anordning hvor den som drikker av boksen - som ved vår oppfinnelse - har et drikkemunnstykke å drikke av og slipper å legge munnen inntil noe av boksens overflate for å drikke av boksen. Vår oppfinnelse skal i det følgende forklares nærmere under henvisning til vedlagte tegninger: Fig. 1 viser en drikketut 10 laget sammenhengende med en bæreplate 18, sett ovenfra og j snitt A -A. Fig. 2 viser en drikkevareboks 15 med trekkring 13, sett ovenfra, og snitt B -B og snitt C -C gjennom drikkevareboksen. *£rig> 3 viser en drikkevareboks 15 sett ovenfra med dekselet 16 trukket av, og med drikketuten 10 i nedbøyd stilling. Fig. 4 viser samme snitt C-C av drikkevareboksen 15 som i fig. 2, men med dekselet 16 trukket av og med drikketuten 10 i oppreist stilling. Fig. 5 viser hvordan en drikkevareboks 15 vanligvis holdes når den skal åpnes. There is a United States Patent 4,407,425 dated Oet. 4.1983 and a US Patent 6.237.817 B 1 dated May 29. 2001, both of which show a similar device where the person drinking from the can - as in our invention - has a drinking nozzle to drink from and does not have to put his mouth close to any of the can's surface to drink from the can. Our invention will be explained in more detail in the following with reference to the attached drawings: Fig. 1 shows a drinking spout 10 made continuous with a carrier plate 18, set from above and j section A -A. Fig. 2 shows a beverage box 15 with a pull ring 13, seen from above, and section B - B and section C - C through the beverage box. *£rig> 3 shows a beverage can 15 seen from above with the cover 16 pulled off, and with drinking spout 10 in a bent position. Fig. 4 shows the same section C-C of the beverage box 15 as in fig. 2, but with the cover 16 pulled off and with the drinking spout 10 in an upright position. Fig. 5 shows how a beverage can 15 is usually held when it is to be opened.
Vår oppfinnelse er forskjellig fra de amerikanske patentene, spesielt ved følgende Our invention differs from the US patents in particular as follows
pkt. 1 og 2. points 1 and 2.
Pkt 1 :Ved vår oppfinnelse skjer trykkutligningen i drikkevareboksen 15 umiddelbart ved penetreringen av bokslokket 17. Dette oppnås ved at drikketuten 10 har riller 14a og 14b, utvendig mot bokslokket 17 og innvendig i drikketuten 10, som vist på Fig. 1-2-3-4. Knotter kan erstatte riller. Penetreringspunktet på bokslokket 17, ved trekkringens spiss 19, legges i forhold til drikketuten 10, som ligger under bokslokket 17, mellom feste/klebeflate 11 og riller 14 a's begynnelse, vist på Fig. 2 snitt C-C. Ved .^penetrering av bokslokket 17, vil man da naturlig holde drikkevareboksen 15 slik at trekkringspissen 19 peker mot brukeren som vist på Fig 5, og naturlig holder man da drikkevareboksen 15 slik at nivået 20 av innholdet i drikkevareboksen 15 kommer under drikketute<n>s 10 utløpsåpning 21 i drikkevareboksen 15, og unngår derved utspruting av drikkevareboksen's 15 innhold ved penetrering av bokslokket 17. Point 1: With our invention, the pressure equalization in the beverage can 15 occurs immediately upon penetration of the can lid 17. This is achieved by the drink spout 10 having grooves 14a and 14b, on the outside towards the can lid 17 and inside the drink spout 10, as shown in Fig. 1-2-3 -4. Knobs can replace grooves. The penetration point on the can lid 17, at the tip 19 of the pull ring, is placed in relation to the drinking spout 10, which is under the can lid 17, between the attachment/adhesive surface 11 and the beginning of the grooves 14 a, shown in Fig. 2 section C-C. When penetrating the can lid 17, one will then naturally hold the beverage can 15 so that the pull ring tip 19 points towards the user as shown in Fig 5, and naturally one will then hold the beverage can 15 so that the level 20 of the contents of the beverage can 15 comes under the drinking spout<n> s 10 outlet opening 21 in the beverage can 15, thereby avoiding splashing of the beverage can's 15 contents when penetrating the can lid 17.
Det amerikanske patentet US 6.237.817 B 1, sier lite om eventuelle problemer ved trykkstigning av drikkevareboksen 10, se US pat. Fig. 2 -3, Eventuell trykkutligning må antøs skje først etter at dekselet 14 over drikketuten 18 er trukket helt eller nesten helt av, slik det beskrives i beskrivelsen 2 linje 53 - 61. Her vil da foreligge risiko for ukrontrollert utblåsing av drikkevareboksen's 15 innhold. The American patent US 6,237,817 B 1, says little about any problems with pressure increase of the beverage can 10, see US pat. Fig. 2 -3, Any pressure equalization must only take place after the cover 14 over the drinking spout 18 has been pulled completely or almost completely off, as described in the description 2 lines 53 - 61. There will then be a risk of uncontrolled blowing out of the beverage can's 15 contents .
Det amerikanske patentet US 4,407,425 sier heller ingen ting om eventuelle mulige problemer med trykkutligning når boksen åpnes. Med referanse til det amerikanske patentet US 4.407.425 Fig 1-4 kan det antas at trykkutligning skjer på et ukontrollert tidspunkt når man med trekkringen 35 trekker av dekselet 25 over drikketuten 32. The American patent US 4,407,425 also says nothing about any possible problems with pressure equalization when the box is opened. With reference to the American patent US 4,407,425 Fig 1-4, it can be assumed that pressure equalization occurs at an uncontrolled time when the cover 25 over the drinking spout 32 is pulled off with the pulling ring 35.
US patent 4.407.425 Fig 1 - 4 viser hvordan drikketutdel 30 festes i lokket 21. Med bokser med overtrykk vil her være en risiko for at drikketutdelen 30 kan trykkes ut når dekselet 25 trekkes av. US patent 4,407,425 Figs 1 - 4 show how the drinking spout 30 is attached to the lid 21. With cans with excess pressure, there will be a risk that the drinking spout 30 can be pushed out when the cover 25 is pulled off.
Pkt. 2: Ved vår oppfinnelse lages drikketuten 10, og bæreplate 18 med feste/klebeflate 11, i ett stykke, og festes/klebes til undersiden av bokslokket 17, med drikketuten 10 nedbøyd i rom 12, som vist på Fig. 2 snitt B-B og snitt C-C. Når bæreplaten 18 med drikketuten 10 lages i et stykke og festes til bokslokkefs 17 underside med feste/klebeflaten 11, kan fylling av drikkevareboksen 15 og sammenfalsing av bokslokket 17 med drikkevareboksen 15 foregå som i dag, med den i dag mest brukte boks og lokktype. Point 2: With our invention, the drinking spout 10 and carrier plate 18 with attachment/adhesive surface 11 are made in one piece, and attached/glued to the underside of the can lid 17, with the drinking spout 10 bent down in space 12, as shown in Fig. 2 section B-B and section C-C. When the carrier plate 18 with the beverage spout 10 is made in one piece and attached to the underside of the can lid 17 with the attachment/adhesive surface 11, filling the beverage can 15 and folding the can lid 17 with the beverage can 15 can take place as today, with the currently most used can and lid type.
Patent US 6.237.817 B 1, US pat Fig. 2-3, viser at del 15 med drikketuten 18 festes til veggen 11 i drikkevareboksen s 10 åpning, beskrevet i beskrivelsen 2 linje 37 -40. Denne løsning vil være meget komplisert, for ikke å si umulig, med den boks og lokktype som er mest brukt i dag. Patent US 6,237,817 B 1, US pat Fig. 2-3, shows that part 15 with the drinking spout 18 is attached to the wall 11 of the beverage box s 10 opening, described in the description 2 line 37 -40. This solution would be very complicated, if not impossible, with the type of box and lid most commonly used today.
Patent US 4.407.425 Fig. 1 - 4 viser hvordan drikketutdel 30 festes i lokket 21. Med bokser med innvendig overtrykk vil her være en mulighet for at drikketutdel 30 kan trykkes ut når dekselet 25 trekkes av. Patent US 4,407,425 Fig. 1 - 4 show how the drinking spout 30 is attached to the lid 21. With cans with internal positive pressure, there will be a possibility that the drinking spout 30 can be pressed out when the cover 25 is pulled off.
Industriell anvendelse av vår oppfinnelse vil være til drikkevarebokser, med eller uten overtrykk, og til andre bokser/kanner hvor det er viktig å hindre forurensing av boksens/kannens innhold når boksen åpnes. Bokslokket 17, med drikketuten 10 og bæreplaten 18, påfestet/påklebet, ferdigstilles hos lokkprodusenten. Sammenfalsingen av bokslokket 17 med drikkevareboksen 15 etter fylling av drikkevareboksen 15, blir som i dag. Ved gjenvinning kan drikketuten 10 med bæreplate 18, og drikkevareboksen 15, skilles fra hverandre ved at drikketuten 10 med bæreplaten 18 trekkes løs fra bokslokket 17. Industrial application of our invention will be for beverage cans, with or without excess pressure, and for other cans/jugs where it is important to prevent contamination of the contents of the can/jug when the can is opened. The can lid 17, with the drinking spout 10 and the carrier plate 18, attached/glued on, is completed by the lid manufacturer. The folding of the can lid 17 with the beverage can 15 after filling the beverage can 15 will be as it is today. When recycling, the drinking spout 10 with carrier plate 18 and the beverage can 15 can be separated from each other by pulling the drinking spout 10 with the carrier plate 18 loose from the can lid 17.
Kort beskrivelse: Short description:
Fig.1 viser drikketuten 10 med bæreplaten 18 sett ovenfra. Snitt A-A viser drikketuten 10 med bæreplaten 18 gjennomskåret. Drikketuten 10 er laget i ett stykke sammen med bæreplate 18. Bæreplaten 18 har feste/klebeflate 11 for festing til undersiden av bokslokket 17, og rom 12 for drikketuten 10 i nedfelt stilling ,som vist på Fig. 2 snitt B - B og snitt C -C. Riller 14a og 14 b, eller knotter, knotter er ikke vist, sikrer at trykkutligningen skjer umiddelbart ved penetrering av bokslokket 17, også når drikketuten 10 er sammenfoldet under lokket 17. Fig. 2 viser drikkevareboksen 15 sett ovenfra med bokslokket 17 påfalset. Det er trekkring 13 for penetrering av bokslokket 17 og avtrekking av dekselet 16 over drikketuten 10. Åpningen av drikkevareboksen 15 skjer ved å løfte trekkringen 13 så bokslokket 17 penetreres ved trekkringen's 13 spiss 19, trykkutligningen skjer umiddelbart ved penetreringen av bokslokket 17 og dekselet 16 kan trekkes av uten risiko for at drikkevareboksen's 10 innhold blåses ut. Drikketuten 10 reiser seg umiddelbart opp i drikkeposisjon og vil være hygienisk å drikke av. Fig.1 shows the drinking spout 10 with the support plate 18 seen from above. Section A-A shows the drinking spout 10 with the carrier plate 18 cut through. The drinking spout 10 is made in one piece together with the support plate 18. The support plate 18 has an attachment/adhesive surface 11 for attachment to the underside of the can lid 17, and room 12 for the drinking spout 10 in the lowered position, as shown in Fig. 2 section B - B and section C -C. Grooves 14a and 14b, or knobs, knobs are not shown, ensure that pressure equalization occurs immediately upon penetration of the can lid 17, also when the beverage spout 10 is folded under the lid 17. Fig. 2 shows the beverage can 15 seen from above with the can lid 17 folded over. There is a pull ring 13 for penetration of the can lid 17 and withdrawal of the cover 16 over the drinking spout 10. The opening of the beverage can 15 takes place by lifting the pull ring 13 so that the can lid 17 is penetrated at the pull ring's 13 tip 19, the pressure equalization occurs immediately upon penetration of the can lid 17 and the cover 16 can can be pulled off without risk of the beverage box's 10 contents being blown out. The drinking spout 10 rises immediately into the drinking position and will be hygienic to drink from.
