Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general terms to the field of containers made of a thermoplastic material, in particular PET, and more particularly to improvements made to containers of this type, in particular bottles, made of a thermoplastic material such as PET, which after filling and sealing are able to withstand without any substantial deformation to an internal pressure lower than atmospheric pressure, said container comprising a body having
  • a container as indicated above is known, which is arranged with each of the edges shaped in the form of a groove that opens outwards and comprises a bottom which has a reversed curvature with its convexity directed outwards.
  • a container Admittedly, from document WO 2005/123517 a container is known the edges of which are in a projecting shape, each comprising a rounded wall portion flanked by two columns, in order to avoid any deformation of the edges when the container is filled with a hot liquid.
  • the bulges thus formed between the rounded faces of the body do not give the container an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
  • the purpose of the invention is therefore to propose an improved arrangement for a container, in particular a bottle, made of thermoplastic material such as PET, which better satisfies requirements in practice while being able, after filling and sealing, to withstand without any substantial deformation to an internal pressure lower than atmospheric pressure, and this result being achieved by employing a simpler shape than those already known, and which also has an aesthetically improved appearance, at least with a view to certain applications, with the attendant simplification of the shape of the mould cavity and a reduction in manufacturing costs.
  • a container in particular a bottle, made of thermoplastic material such as PET, which better satisfies requirements in practice while being able, after filling and sealing, to withstand without any substantial deformation to an internal pressure lower than atmospheric pressure, and this result being achieved by employing a simpler shape than those already known, and which also has an aesthetically improved appearance, at least with a view to certain applications, with the attendant simplification of the shape of the mould cavity and a reduction in manufacturing costs.
  • a container as mentioned in the preamble, being arranged according to the invention is characterized:
  • a container according to the invention has an intermediate zone which satisfies the requirements detailed above in every respect.
  • such a container is able to withstand without any substantial deformation to an internal pressure which is substantially lower than the external pressure, in particular than atmospheric pressure, a situation which occurs in particular when the container is filled with a hot liquid or which can also occur under certain storage conditions of the filled containers.
  • the body of the container has a smooth contour without any stepped section, sunken or projecting relief, even in its intermediate part which has a substantially triangular and curvilinear cross section, and a container shaped in this way, specifically intended for this particular application, has an analogy of general shape with a standard container, which was not the case for the containers of the prior art intended for the same purpose; this satisfies the requirements of at least one section of users.
  • a smooth shape such as the one proposed, facilitates affixing labels or similar and keeping them in position.
  • main faces can also be envisaged for said main faces to be substantially flat, or to be curved with a convexity directed outwards.
  • said lower and upper parts of the body prefferably have the same shape and the same transverse dimensions.
  • the lower and/or the upper part of the body can have a circular cross section, but an elliptical or oval cross section can also be envisaged.
  • edges can have substantially straight axial extensions, or be inclined with respect to the axis of the body, or also have curvilinear axial extensions.
  • FIGS. 1A and 1B are very diagrammatic views, respectively a side view and a top view cut along the line IB-IB in FIG. 1A , of a container such as a bottle arranged according to the invention;
  • FIGS. 2A and 2B are very diagrammatic views, respectively a side view and a top view cut along the line IIB-IIB of FIG. 2A , of a variant of the container such as a bottle shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B ;
  • FIG. 3 is a bottom view diagram of an embodiment of a container such as a bottle arranged according to the invention.
  • FIG. 4 is a bottom view diagram of another embodiment of a container such as a bottle arranged according to the invention.
  • FIG. 5 is a diagrammatic top view section of yet another possible variant embodiment.
  • FIGS. 1A and 1B show diagrammatically a container 1 such as a bottle made of thermoplastic material such as PET, which after filling and sealing is able to withstand without any substantial deformation to an internal pressure lower than atmospheric pressure.
  • a container 1 such as a bottle made of thermoplastic material such as PET, which after filling and sealing is able to withstand without any substantial deformation to an internal pressure lower than atmospheric pressure.
  • the container 1 comprises a neck 10 , a base or bottom 11 and a body 2 which extends between said neck and said base and has:
  • axis X of the container a term by which is meant the axis passing through the centre of the neck 10 and the centre of the base 11 of said container 1 , as can be seen in FIGS. 1A and 2A .
  • the edges 7 a, 7 b, 7 c are rounded with respective continuous curves (the respective radii of curvature of the edges are ra, rb, rc) and join tangentially with the main faces 6 a, 6 b, 6 c (the respective radii of curvature are Ra, Rb, Rc).
  • edges 7 a, 7 b, 7 c have respective radii of curvature ra, rb, rc which are comprised between approximately 5% and 35% of the largest dimension D of the cross section of the lower part 3 of the body 2 .
  • the main faces 6 a, 6 b, 6 c have radii of curvature Ra, Rb, Rc which are greater than the largest dimension D of the cross section of the lower part 3 of the body 2 .
  • the dimension D is the diameter of the lower part 3 of the body 2 which has a circular contour in the example of FIG. 3
  • the dimension D is the major axis of the lower part 3 of the body 2 which has an oval contour in the example in FIG. 4 .
  • the radii of curvature ra, rb, rc of the three rounded edges 7 a, 7 b, 7 c can equally well, according to need, all be different as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 (the edge 7 b has a large radius of curvature rb; the edge 7 a has a small radius of curvature ra; the edge 7 c has an intermediate radius of curvature rc comprised between the two previous ones), or even be equal for only two edges as shown in FIG.
  • the edges 7 a, 7 b, 7 c have radii of curvature ra, rb, rc comprised between approximately 3.5 mm and 24.5 mm; specifically, the three edges are identical and have approximately the same radius of curvature of approximately 10 mm.
  • main faces 6 a, 6 b, 6 c they can have any shapes, optionally different from each other.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 the three main faces are different from each other with radii of curvature which are all different (RaRb ⁇ Rc).
  • the radii of curvature Ra, Rb, Rc can be any whatsoever: the main faces 6 a, 6 b, 6 c can therefore be substantially flat, or be curved with a convexity directed outwards as illustrated in all the attached Figures, or a combination of these arrangements.
  • the lower part 3 and upper part 4 of the body 2 have the same shape and the same transverse dimensions.
  • the lower part 3 and/or the upper part 4 of the body 2 can have any other shape, for example elliptical cross section, or also oval as shown in the diagram of FIG. 4 .
  • FIG. 1A shows a shape consisting in that the edges 7 a, 7 b, 7 c have axial extensions which are substantially straight and substantially parallel to the axis X of the container 1 .
  • the edges 7 a, 7 b, 7 c can be inclined with respect to the axis x of the body 2 ; they can also have axial curvilinear extensions; and of course these arrangements can be combined as illustrated in FIG. 2A which shows an edge 7 b inclined with respect to the axis X of the body and curvilinear (curved).
  • the main faces 6 a, 6 b, 6 c can adapt to any shape of the body 2 of the container 1 .
  • the main faces 6 a, 6 b, 6 c can be shaped such that the intermediate part 5 of the body has a substantially cylindrical shape with the wall of this intermediate part of the body extending substantially parallel to the axis X over the whole of its circumference.
  • the main faces 6 a, 6 b, 6 c can also have an evolving axial profile with the transverse dimensions which axially vary. For example as illustrated on FIGS.
  • the main faces 6 a, 6 b, 6 c can comprise a zone 8 which has reduced transverse dimensions, situated approximately at the level of the centre of gravity of the container when the latter is filled, the which zone 8 having reduced transverse dimensions is included between two flanking zones 9 having evolving transverse dimensions which gradually increase up to the dimensions of the lower part 3 and upper part 4 into which they merge.
