Definitions

  • the present invention relates to beverage containers particularly sealed containers but more particularly relates to a sealed ready to use alcoholic beverage container and a method of production of a wine filled container and packaging thereof
  • Containers for liquid beverages have in the past been manufactured in a wide variety of forms whereby greater use has been made of soft packaging formed from plastics or fibre materials as an alternative to use of glass
  • One such package is manufactured from cardboard including a layer of plastics material and a metallic layer and comprises a box like receptacle with a small opening through which a straw passes to gain access to the beverage The opening has a frangible sealing membrane across it which keeps the contents airtight and which must be invaded to gain access to the inside of the container
  • This class of containers is generally used for soft drinks and although they have previously been used for holding alcoholic beverages, as consumers of the latter are discerning in their acceptance of containers from which they partake of alcohol, such containers have not gained market acceptance There is consumer resistance to alcoholic beverages dispensed from such containers
  • Another known sealed airtight container for liquid beverages comprises a receptacle, formed from a plastics material and having a heat sealed membrane or cover which ensures the package is air tight
  • the membrane generally comprises a sheet of aluminium foil which engage
  • bottles or glasses are the preferred containers with the former providing multiple serves and the latter providing a single serve.
  • alcoholic beverages are in single serve demand such as in bars or restaurants or in flight. In these circumstances, it can be inconvenient and time consuming for an attendant to fill consumers' glasses.
  • self contained sealed containers of soft drinks and juices it is very common for self contained sealed containers of soft drinks and juices to be served quickly in these situations due to the availability of single serve sealed packages for these products.
  • this is not the case with alcoholic beverages particularly wine and particularly where a single serve only is required, as these beverages have not hitherto previously been packaged in plastics in a self contained sealed convenient ready to use form.
  • Packaging alcohol in plastic containers has traditionally been considered undesirable by suppliers of alcohol products.
  • Consumable liquids such as soft drinks previously and presently packaged in plastics containers have a short shelf life and must be used soon after packaging.
  • plastics are known to allow gas transmissibility therethrough, the. contents of a plastics container are prone to oxidation soon after packaging, i.e. within days or over a few weeks.
  • the present invention has overcome the problem to the extent that the shelf life of an alcoholic beverage stored in a plastics container may be prolonged for at least six months without compromise to the integrity of the alcoholic contents.
  • a suitable plastics receptacle for holding alcohol may comprise a single layer or multiple layers of plastics.
  • the inside surface of the receptacle is biocompatible as is the inner surface of the membrane which seals the receptacle.
  • the present invention provides an alternative plastics container for use in the service of alcoholic beverages and also provides a method enabling the container to be used for the service of alcohol and resulting in a longer shelf life than liquid products traditionally served in plastics.
  • the present invention comprises, a method of production of a sealed container for holding an alcoholic beverage as hereinbefore described, comprising the steps of.
  • Support member 21 comprises stem 24, base 25 and recess 26.
  • Figure 6 shows receptacle 20 seated in recess 26. The lower portion of the receptacle 20 is contoured to conform to the shape of the contour of recess 26.
  • container 1 is produced according to the following regime.
  • the first step is to produce the receptacle 2 and this is effected by moulding polypropylene (or other suitable material through which oxygen cannot penetrate) to ensure that the integrity of the sealing of the contents is maintained and thus to ensure that oxidisation of the liquid beverage does not take place.
  • receptacle 2 is moulded into the shape of a glass.
  • Each receptacle 2 is set in position on a production line where it is filled via dispensers with the selected alcoholic beverage which may be white or red wine, beer or any other alcoholic beverage.
  • the selected alcoholic beverage which may be white or red wine, beer or any other alcoholic beverage.
  • a biocompatible lacquer layer or layer formed from a material which performs the roles of isolating the contents of the receptacle 2 from the aluminium, and providing a sealing material which melts under the sealing process.
  • any residual oxygen is evacuated from the receptacle by injection of gaseous nitrogen or other suitable food grade gas into the void above the contents
  • the membrane is presented to the peripheral flange 8 immediately the evacuation has been completed thereby effecting sealing of the contents
  • the receptacles are sealed in a controlled environment.
  • FIG 3 shows a cover 1 1 detached from the container of figure 1 Receptacle 2 can be resealed where necessary by the removable cover 11 which engages the peripheral flange 8 Cover 11 can also be used to cover and protect membrane 6 prior to use

Abstract

L'invention concerne un récipient en plastique scellé (1) qui contient une boisson alcoolisée telle que du vin. Le récipient comprend un réceptacle (2) qui contient la boisson alcoolislée et qui comprend un rebord périphérique (8) autour de l'embouchure du réceptacle, une surface interne biocompatible et une paroi ayant une faible transmissibilité au gaz, une membrane d'étanchéité (6) fixée de manière détachable audit rebord et comprenant une surface interne biocompatible, un espace supérieur entre la boisson alcoolisée et la surface interne biocompatible de la membrane de fermeture étanche et contenant un gaz biocompatible autre que l'oxygène, ce qui permet de maintenir la boisson alcoolisée hors du contact avec l'air. Un élément de support permet de tenir de manière libérable un réceptacle en matière plastique, et un procédé de conditionnement d'une boisson alcoolisée dans un récipient sont également décrits.
