Description

DESCRIPCIÓNDESCRIPTION
Contenedor plegable autoportanteSelf-supporting folding container
La presente invención se encuentra referida a un contenedor, fabricado con materiales de escaso peso y espesor y coste reducido tal como polietileno, cloruro de polivinilo u otros plásticos adecuados, que se une convenientemente a un elemento de soporte del conjunto, fabricado a base de un material de suficiente rigidez para sostener al contenedor una vez cargado y, al mismo tiempo, capaz de doblarse por plegado y, preferentemente de poco peso, escaso coste, tal como cartón u otro análogo y por tanto ecológico, que tiene una estructura adecuada para formar un conjunto suficientemente estable; con las ventajas de que puede transportarse y almacenarse en estado plegado para ocupar un minimo volumen, y de que puede desecharse después de un solo uso, cuando asi se requiera por el bajo coste de fabricación.The present invention is related to a container, made of materials of low weight and thickness and reduced cost such as polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride or other suitable plastics, which conveniently joins a support element of the assembly, manufactured on the basis of a material of sufficient rigidity to hold the container once loaded and, at the same time, capable of bending by folding and, preferably of low weight, low cost, such as cardboard or other analog and therefore ecological, which has a suitable structure to form a sufficiently stable set; with the advantages that it can be transported and stored in a folded state to occupy a minimum volume, and that it can be discarded after a single use, when required by the low manufacturing cost.
En el sector de hostelería, es conocida su utiliza- ción de bolsas de plástico para contener y trasladar basuras y residuos de todo tipo que se producen en grandes cantidades en restaurantes, bares, etc. La recogida de la mayor parte de dichos desperdicios, ha de llevarse a cabo mediante barrido o procedimientos análogos. Cuando los residuos proceden de habitáculos únicamente frecuentados por personal de servicio, tales como cocinas, partes traseras de barras u otros sin acceso público, las bolsas contenedoras se sitúan en cubos o recipientes adecuados en los que se sostienen abiertas para la recepción de los primeros, hasta que llenas, son sustituidas por otras y retiradas; pero cuando la recogida ha de tener lugar en las zonas destinadas al público, tal procedimiento resulta antiestético, aún cuando su utilización resultarla, con toda seguridad, conveniente por cuanto el público podria arrojar directamente los desperdicios al contenedor, con lo que la zona se mantendría más limpia en todo instante, redundando beneficiosamente a favor de la higiene de los establecimientos . Igualmente, en el hogar cuando tienen lugar celebraciones de cualquier Índole con asistencia de un número elevado de personas, se produce el mismo hecho, debiendo decidirse entre la utilidad de situar cubos con bolsas contenedoras en las habitaciones correspondientes, con el consiguiente atentado estético que ello supondría.In the hospitality sector, it is known to use plastic bags to contain and transport garbage and waste of all kinds that are produced in large quantities in restaurants, bars, etc. The collection of most of these wastes must be carried out by means of scanning or similar procedures. When the waste comes from rooms only frequented by service personnel, such as kitchens, backs of bars or others without public access, the container bags are placed in buckets or suitable containers in which they are held open for the reception of the first, until full, they are replaced by others and removed; but when the collection has to take place in the areas destined for the public, such a procedure is unsightly, even if its use would be, surely, convenient because the public could Dispose of waste directly to the container, so that the area would be kept cleaner at all times, benefiting beneficially in favor of the hygiene of the establishments. Likewise, in the home when celebrations of any kind take place with the assistance of a large number of people, the same fact occurs, and it must be decided between the usefulness of placing cubes with container bags in the corresponding rooms, with the consequent aesthetic attack that this would suppose
En el interior de establecimientos de venta por autoservicio con pago en caja, es muy frecuente utilizar cestas y carros para transportar artículos, cuyos elementos de transporte deben abandonarse en el momento del pago, o pocos instantes y metros después, con lo que el cliente debe introducir los artículos adquiridos en bolsas que le son facilitadas en caja, que posteriormente ha de transportar, para desechar una vez concluido el transporte . De todo lo expuesto se concluye la necesidad de desarrollo de una bolsa o elemento contenedor adecuado que, conservando las virtudes de gran capacidad y escasos peso, volumen y coste, reúna también la condición de incluir su propio elemento de soporte, con las mismas características y que al tiempo reúna una estética adecuada para su uso en lugares de concurrencia pública, asi como la posibilidad de equiparse con un complemento adecuado para su transporte cuando la bolsa se encuentra llena, tal como asas, y con posibilidad de ser plegada a modo de carpeta para su transporte y almacenamiento, cuando se encuentra vacia. Con tales características, seria posible, además el doble uso, utilizando el contenedor para llevar a cabo las compras en hipermerca- dos, etc., y posteriormente utilizarlos en el hogar o en el establecimiento de hostelería como contenedor de basura de un solo uso; siendo aún posible una tercera utilización como envase contenedor de productos, si la estructura soporte se realiza a modo de caja con base y tapa; todo ello sin contar la que puede derivarse de su posible empleo como sostén publicitario.Inside self-service retail establishments with cash payment, it is very common to use baskets and carts to transport items, whose transport elements must be abandoned at the time of payment, or a few moments and meters later, with which the customer must enter the items purchased in bags that are provided in a box, which must then be transported, to be discarded once the transport is finished. From all of the above, the need to develop a suitable bag or container element that, while retaining the virtues of high capacity and low weight, volume and cost, also meets the condition of including its own support element, with the same characteristics and that at the same time it brings together an aesthetic suitable for use in places of public attendance, as well as the possibility of being equipped with a suitable complement for transport when the bag is full, such as handles, and with the possibility of being folded as a folder for transport and storage, when it is empty. With such characteristics, it would be possible, in addition to double use, using the container to carry out purchases in hypermarkets, etc., and then use them in the home or in the hospitality establishment as a container for single-use garbage; a third use being still possible as a product container, if the support structure is made as a box with base and lid; all this without counting the one that can be derived from its possible use as advertising support.
Según la invención, estas tareas se consiguen mediante un contenedor, esencialmente constituido por una bolsa fabricada en un material adecuadamente flexible y elástico, convenientemente dispuesta en el interior de un elemento o estructura de soporte constituido por un corte o placa rectangular de material adecuado, tal como cartón u otro, en la que se han practicado tres lineas de doblado equidistantes e intermedias y que por unión de sus aristas extremas forma un paralepipedo, hueco y desprovisto de bases, estando unida la bolsa propiamente dicha a las paredes internas del elemento de soporte; además el elemento de soporte puede constar de asas apropiadas, e incluso dotarse de bases para su posible posterior utilización adicional como envase, e incluso adoptar otras formas diferentes que sigan permitiendo su plegado por las lineas de doblado apropiadas al caso; y pudiendo el elemento contenedor, en caso de que asi sea deseado constar de más de un receptáculo o bolsa.According to the invention, these tasks are achieved by means of a container, essentially constituted by a bag made of a suitably flexible and elastic material, conveniently arranged inside a support element or structure constituted by a rectangular cut or plate of suitable material, such as cardboard or other, in which three equidistant and intermediate folding lines have been practiced and that by joining their extreme edges form a parallel, hollow and devoid of bases, the bag itself being attached to the internal walls of the support element ; In addition, the support element may consist of appropriate handles, and even be provided with bases for possible further use as a container, and even adopt other different shapes that continue to allow its folding by the folding lines appropriate to the case; and the container element may, if so desired, consist of more than one receptacle or bag.
