Description

This utility model relates to devices for capping bottles, more precisely, bottles with a neck and a whisk, containing a cork with a top protruding above the whisk.

Widely known devices for capping bottles containing a neck, a whisk and a cork in the form of bodies of revolution.

The disadvantages of these devices are difficulties in removing plugs.

Cork plugs require the use of auxiliary devices (corkscrew), which leads to a violation of the integrity of the plug, and sometimes to destruction of the latter.

Corks having an upper part made, as a rule, of a cylindrical shape, matching the diameter of the rim, also cannot immediately be uncorked due to sticking of the cork.

The round mouths do not provide a hand clamping force sufficient to keep the bottle from turning and easy to remove the cork.

Known plugs having over the upper part of the superstructure in the form of a rod with a T-shaped handle.

The disadvantage of such structures is the increase in tare and problems with their placement in standard transport boxes and refrigerators.

The closest analogue (prototype) to the claimed design is Helix closure, developed jointly by the world's largest company Amorim (cork) and OI (glass containers) (see the site vinographia.ru. Site search - Natural cork Helix).

The Helix twist system (spiral) consists of a glass one with a round neck and a whisk, on the inside of which there are threaded elements protruding inward, which are guides, and a cork stopper, the lower part of which also has threaded grooves, and the upper part of the cork protruding above the rim has a circular cross section with a diameter of the rim.

To remove the cork from the neck does not require a corkscrew, just unscrew the cork. You can also screw the cork into place.

The disadvantages of this design are the complexity and increased cost of manufacturing a pair of beater-cork and with a significant unscrewing force, the separation of the upper part of the cork is possible.

Another disadvantage is the impossibility of unscrewing the cork by left-handed people and the inability to pull out the cork by rotating it in different directions with pumping.

According to reports, the practical use of this design has not yet been implemented for these reasons.

In contrast to the use of natural cork stoppers that allow wine to breathe, strong alcohol cork closures are made of other materials that prevent diffuse contact with atmospheric oxygen and prevent oxidation of the drink, and a denser closure is used for this.

During long-term storage of strong alcohol, sticking of the cork also occurs, which requires considerable effort when uncorking.

The task to which the claimed utility model is directed is to create a capping device for bottles, mainly with alcoholic beverages, increase the reliability of their corking, facilitate opening and closing of the bottle, improve the strength and consumer qualities, and also make it possible to open and close the bottle as right-handed so left-handed.

To solve the technical problem, a device is claimed, characterized by the following set of essential features, sufficient to solve the specified technical problem and obtain the desired technical result provided by the utility model.

In the device for capping bottles containing a neck with a whisk and a cork, there are protrusions on the end part of the corolla to enable the cork to be lifted when it is turned, and the neck, whisk and the upper part of the cork are made in horizontal sections rectangular or oval. Besides:

- protrusions on the end of the rim are located opposite the perimeter of its long sides;

- the protrusions are made in the form of arcs with an apex in the middle of the corolla;

- the neck and corolla are made on two wide sides in the form of common flat surfaces;

- on the narrow sides of the whisk is made in the form of hooks.

The proposed scheme with protrusions at the end of the corolla can be implemented on a round corolla;

- the neck, whisk and the upper part of the cork can be made in horizontal sections polygonal.

To join the neck and corolla along the narrow sides, the neck is made in the form of a narrowing to the corolla

The accompanying drawings show the best constructive solution of the claimed device, however, other modifications are possible that do not change the totality of the claimed essential features of this utility model.

In FIG. 1-6 of the drawings presents the types of the claimed utility model in orthogonal and axonometric projections, including:

neck 1,

whisk 2,

cork 3,

handle 4,

protrusions 5 and 6,

flat sidewalls 7 and 8,

convex ends 9 and 10,

hooks 11 and 12.

The bottle and its articulation with the neck 1 are not shown in the drawings, since they are not essential features defining the claimed essence of the utility model and for specialists in this field of technology are not difficult in their technical implementation.

In FIG. 1 shows a device for capping bottles (hereinafter referred to as the device) in longitudinal section with the handle 4 in the corked bottle position with a stopper 3.

In FIG. 2 shows the device in cross section with the location of the handle 4 in the sealed position of the bottle with a stopper 3.

In FIG. 3 shows the device in a top view with the location of the handle 4 in the sealed position of the bottle with a stopper 3.

In FIG. 4 shows the device in a top view with the location of the handle 4 in its transverse position (the initial phase of removing the plug 3 from the rim 2).

In FIG. 5 shows a device in longitudinal section with the location of the handle 4 in the initial phase of removing the plug 3 from the rim 2.

In FIG. 6 shows a device in a perspective view in a sealed state.

The lateral long sides 7 and 8 of the neck 1 and corolla 2 have common parallel planes.

The part of the neck adjacent to the corolla is narrowed to the latter along the narrow sides, and the neck along the sides 9 and 10 has a convex surface. The narrowing can be made in the form of a variety of configurations.

Parts of the rim 2 on the narrow sides are made in the form of transverse hooks 11 and 12. The hooks can also be made flat or in the shape that is determined by the suspensions.

The inventive utility model (device) performs its function as follows.

In the initial state (corked bottle), the handle 4 is located on the long side along the rim 2 inside the protrusions 5 and 6.

In the initial phase of uncorking the bottle, it is held with one hand on the flat neck 1 and at the same time with the other hand the handle 4 is rotated by its long sides in any direction until the handle 4 is located across the rim 2.

At this time, the handle 4 with its lower plane interacts with the protrusions 5 and 6, reaching their vertices in a transverse arrangement relative to the neck 1 and the corolla 2; plug 3, rigidly connected to the handle 4, making a rotational-translational movement, is pulled from the corolla 2 of the neck 1.

The impact on the long sides of the handle 4 and the holding of the neck 1 by the flat sidewalls 7 and 8 allows you to create a significant effort that facilitates the initial removal of the plug 3 (in the direction of its rotation while pulling it from the whisk).

In the future, it becomes possible to capture the handle 4 using not only its lateral, but also its lower parts for turning in the horizontal plane and swinging from side to side while pulling out the plug 3, which greatly facilitates its extraction.

The bottle capping process is also facilitated for subsequent temporary storage until next use.

Pouring the drink occurs on the end surface of the rim 2 both on the wide and narrow sides through the protrusions 5 or 6.

The implementation of the manufacture of the totality of the elements of this utility model currently does not present difficulties for specialists in this field of technology, modern materials and technologies make it possible to produce them under industrial conditions of serial production.

For the manufacture of corks, food-grade synthetic materials well-known to those skilled in the art are used, while both synthetic materials and glass can be used to make the handle.

The connection of the cork with the handle does not require explanation, since from a mechanical and technological point of view, it is well known to specialists in this field of technology.

Thus, the claimed technical solution is new and industrially applicable and provides the function of reliable corking and extraction of the cork by the initial stragging, by simultaneously rotating and pulling the cork through the interaction of the lower part of the handle and the protrusions in the upper part of the rim, and then simultaneously rotating, pumping from side to side side and pulling, thanks to the possibility of confidently gripping and holding with one hand the flat neck and with the other hand the top of the cork not only with righties, but also with by the eves.

In addition, the presence of hooks on both sides of the narrow part of the rim allows you to store the bottle on suspensions in an upright position.
