Definitions

  • This invention relates tn improvements in devices for the handling and disposal of beverage infusion devices such as a tea bag.
  • beverage infusion devices such as a tea bag.
  • Some of these devices are attached directly to the bag or to the string attached to the bag, forming part of the beverage manufacturer's end product, while others provide a distinctly and commercially separate device into which the bag or the string connected to the bag can be
  • Tea bags and other beverage infusion devices currently exist in many forms and variations.
  • One popular form consists of the infusion bag being attached to a string which is in turn attached to a small piece of material such as paper, cardboard or plastic.
  • the purpose of the said piece of material is to provide the user with a tag to hold on to rather than having to hold the string, and to provide the manufacturer with a branding label.
  • the said tag currently exists in two major forms, the first being a single sheet of rather stiff material and the second being a doubled piece of more flexible material.
  • the said second form of the tag in the basis fur this invention and indeed could be utilised in : ⁇ n enlarged or extended current form to perform the same bag squeezing function as detailed herein.
  • the object of this invention to overcome these disadvantages by providing a method of manufacturing the tag or branding label of a beverage infusion device in such a way as to function as a bag squeezing apparatus, being initially attached to the bag via a string, thus forming part of the beverage manufacturer's end product, and facilitating a deliberate separating action from the string to allow the said bag squeezing apparatus to be moved toward the bag independently of the string.
  • the essential feature of the invention is the combination, of the following two features: (i) the tag being formed by a folded piece of paper, cardboard, plastic or other suitable material, so that the fold is at the top of the tag allowing the bottom of the tag to form an open
  • the upper portion of the tag has therein a perforated section allowing the portion of the tag to which the string is stapled or otherwise attached to be torn away from the remaining part of the tag and ensuring that the remaining part of the tag retains some of the folded section of the tag thus
  • the string passes through a small hole in the middle of the top of the tag.
  • the string then has a knot made in its end so as to prevent the tag from being pulled off the end of the string.
  • the tag is then fastened to the string with a weak glue so that, the tag can be pulled down and apart from the string toward the bag.
  • FIG. 1 shows the tag in one piece with the perforated section having not been torn.
  • FIG. 2 shows the tag in two pieces, (the perforated section having been t ⁇ rn ⁇ . one being stapled to the string, and the other having been pulled downward to the bag ready to be used to squeeze the bag.
  • the tea bag squeezing tag according to this invention is formed with a fold 1 at the top providing for a hinge like action, with an opening 2 at the bottom.
  • the string 3 is secured to the tag with a staple 4.
  • Perforations 5 can be seen to allow the stapled section 6 to be torn apart from the rest of the tag 7.
  • the main body of the tag 7 being that part of the tag not containing the staple 4 after the perforation 5 has been torn, forms a hinged apparatus capable of being used to squeeze the bag 8 after use.
  • the function ol the device is performed in the following way :
  • the tea bag is placed in a cup in the normal wav with the tag hanging on the outside of the cup.
  • the tag is grasped with the perforated top section between the thumb and forefinger of one hand, and the rest of the tag between the thumb and forefinger of the other hand.
  • the perforated section to which the string is attached is then torn away from the rest of the tag.
  • the rest of the tag now forms a hinged apparatus being separate from the string and is then pulled downward or allowed to descend under it's own weight until it rests over the tea bag, the said bag being effectively sandwiched between the two sides of the said hinged apparatus.
  • the said hinged apparatus is then squeezed to remove excess liquid from the bag.
