Abstract

Package for live sea worms comprised of a receptacle box which is made of laminated material such as cardboard, metal and plastifying polymer with an undulated cardboard lid coated with kraft paper in the internal area which solves successfully the problems of humidification and loss of rigidity and appearance. The worms are placed inside the box and a humidifying and functional agent is provided inside the package in order to improve the life duration of the worms, this medium being comprised of various materials such as cut sea algae, cellulose materials mixed with cork or balls of porexpan, or with peat, perlite, cork and ground oyster shell, or with coarse sand or with wooddust of poplar.

EMBALAJE PARA GUSANOS DE MAR VIVOS.PACKING FOR LIVING SEA Worms.
La presente invención se refiere a un embalaje para gusanos vivos de mar, que preserva su integridad durante el almacenaje y transporte.The present invention relates to a package for live sea worms, which preserves its integrity during storage and transport.
Se conocen embalajes para gusanos de mar vivos constituidos por tapa y caja de cartón ondulado, constando algunos de un cubilete interno alojado en la caja, donde se depositan los gusanos vivos junto a serrín de chopo humectado con agua de mar. A veces la caja es de poliestireno expandido o porexpan. Este es el embalaje que se emplea para el almacenaje y transporte de los gusanos vivos de mar como producto desde los lugares de producción hasta los centros de mercado.Packages are known for live sea worms consisting of a lid and corrugated cardboard box, some of which consist of an internal beaker housed in the box, where live worms are deposited next to poplar sawdust moistened with seawater. Sometimes the box is made of expanded polystyrene or porexpan. This is the packaging used for the storage and transport of live sea worms as a product from production sites to market centers.
Este embalaje presenta los siguientes inconvenientes: a) La tapa de cartón se humedece por la transferencia de agua desde la masa de serrín de chopo húmeda alojada en el cubilete o en la propia caja, perdiendo la rigidez y prestancia funcional como embalaje. b) El serrín de chopo, como soporte humectante, se seca aumentando su salinidad y perdiendo sus características funcionales que son importantes para la supervivencia de los gusanos. c) El empleo de otros materiales en la caja, como el poliestireno expandido, no resuelven el problema de pérdida de humedad del serrín de chopo, ya que la tapa sigue siendo de cartón, por requerirse, al ser los gusanos vivos, materiales porosos. d) El empleo de elementos de embalaje rígidos y que no se humedecen, tales como materiales sintéticos como el porexpan presentan problemas de transferencia de calor. Esto provoca una elevación de la temperatura en el interior de embalaje que reduce la supervivencia de los gusanos por dificultades en la disipación del calor y que además provoca problemas en los procesos de enfriamiento.This packaging has the following disadvantages: a) The cardboard lid is moistened by the transfer of water from the mass of wet poplar sawdust housed in the beaker or in the box itself, losing rigidity and functional performance as packaging. b) Poplar sawdust, as a moisturizing support, dries up, increasing its salinity and losing its functional characteristics that are important for the survival of worms. c) The use of other materials in the box, such as expanded polystyrene, does not solve the problem of moisture loss of poplar sawdust, since the lid is still cardboard, as required, as living worms are porous materials. d) The use of rigid and non-moistened packaging elements, such as synthetic materials such as porexpan, present heat transfer problems. This causes a temperature rise inside the packaging that reduces the survival of the worms due to difficulties in heat dissipation and also causes problems in the cooling processes.
Estos inconvenientes quedan resueltos con la presente invención, que consiste en un embalaje de gusanos de mar vivos compuesto de una caja 2 receptáculo construida de un material laminado, denominado también como complejo en el sector de envases, y que esta constituido de capas o láminas de cartón, metal, polímeros plastificantes y adhesivos para mantener unidas las capas del complejo laminado. La caja cuenta con una tapa de cartón ondulado revestido de papel kraft en la zona interna que resuelve satisfactoriamente los problemas de humectación y pérdida de rigidez y prestancia. Dentro de esta caja se alojan los gusanos de mar en un medio humectante y funcional como soporte que mejora su supervivencia. Este medio humectado con agua de mar puede estar constituido por diversos materiales, entre los que figuran: a) Algas de mar troceadas. b) Pequeños aglomerados de materiales celulósicos mezclados con otros materiales como corcho o bolitas de porexpan. c) Pequeños aglomerados de materiales celulósicos mezclados con turba, perlita, corcho y cascara de ostra molida. d) Pequeños aglomerados de materiales celulósicos mezclados con arena de granulometría gruesa. e) Serrín de chopo.These drawbacks are resolved with the present invention, which consists of a package of live sea worms composed of a box 2 receptacle constructed of a laminated material, also referred to as a complex in the packaging sector, and consisting of layers or sheets of cardboard, metal, plasticizing polymers and adhesives to keep the layers of the laminate complex together. The box has a corrugated cardboard cover lined with kraft paper in the inner area that satisfactorily solves the problems of wetting and loss of stiffness and performance. Inside this box, sea worms are housed in a moisturizing and functional environment as a support that improves their survival. This medium moistened with seawater may consist of various materials, including: a) Sliced seaweed. b) Small agglomerates of cellulosic materials mixed with other materials such as cork or porexpan pellets. c) Small agglomerates of cellulosic materials mixed with peat, perlite, cork and ground oyster shell. d) Small agglomerates of cellulosic materials mixed with coarse grained sand. e) Poplar sawdust.
La combinación de estos soportes con el embalaje aseguran un ambiente húmedo, suficientemente oxigenado y con unas características físicas y funcionales que favorecen la supervivencia de los gusanos de mar dentro del receptáculo, consiguiéndose elevar significativamente el tiempo de supervivencia en relación al logrado con los procedimientos hasta ahora conocidos en condiciones normales de transporte. Además el embalaje conserva su funcionalidad original confiriendo todo ello notables ventajas al producto.The combination of these supports with the packaging ensures a humid environment, sufficiently oxygenated and with physical and functional characteristics that favor the survival of the sea worms inside the receptacle, being able to significantly increase the survival time in relation to that achieved with the procedures until Now known in normal transport conditions. In addition the packaging retains its original functionality conferring all of this remarkable advantages to the product.
