Definitions
- Thermal bag for transportation of hot meals in horizontal position.
- the present patent application refers to a thermal bag for transportation of hot meals in horizontal position, preferably pizzas.
- hot meals are purchased from a pizzeria, delicatessen or restaurant, it is necessary to maintain their integrity during transportation to the place where they are to be consumed and avoid sudden cooling. In other words, it is necessary to maintain hot meals in horizontal position and as hot as possible.
- These two requirements also exist for the transportation of pizzas; however, no instruments have been so far designed to provide a satisfactory answer to these needs. Take-away pizzas are currently delivered in ordinary cardboard boxes. However, cardboard boxes are mainly used for hygienic purposes, since they protect pizzas against external impurities, while they are quite ineffective in terms of avoiding sudden cooling.
- a careful evaluation of the typical functional limitations of ordinary cardboard boxes for take-away pizzas has led to the realisation of the bag of the invention.
- the purpose of the new manufacture is to provide an ideal preservation mode for take-away pizzas, both in terms of position and temperature, during transportation from the preparation place to consumption place.
- the idea of the present invention is to provide a thermal plastic bag (that is to say capable of maintaining the temperature of hot meals) with a square plan slightly larger than the cardboard boxes that are normally used to deliver take-away pizzas.
- the height of the internal compartment of the bag is such that it can contain a small stack of boxes; it being provided that the boxes are inserted in the compartment in horizontal position through the open side.
- the open side is provided with a sealing closure of known type, composed of a longitudinal rib on the upper border and a corresponding groove designed to be pressed into the rib. From the aforementioned description it appears evident that the bag of the invention can maintain the temperature of take-away pizzas for a long time; the description continues explaining how the bag can preserve the perfect horizontal position of the pizzas also when the user holds the bag with one hand.
- the thermal bag is provided with a handle of soft plastic material. The handle is located in central transversal position on the upper side of the thermal bag.
- Fig. 1 is an axonometric view of the bag of the invention in open position to show the stack of pizza boxes contained inside;
- the thermal bag of the invention (1) is obtained by overlapping and joining the perimeters of two identical multi-layer plastic sheets (1a, 1 b) capable of maintaining heat, preferably with square plan.
- the perimeter joining line (2) is not realised on the side of the bag (1 ) from which the boxes (S) are inserted in horizontal position.
- side (3) is provided with a sealing closure composed of a longitudinal rib (3a) on the upper sheet (1a), designed to be pressed into a corresponding groove (3b) on the lower sheet (1 b).
- the bag (1) is provided with a upper handle (4) in central transversal position.
- the ends of the handle (4) are joined along the closing perimeter line (2) that joins the plastic sheets (1a, 1 b). It is understood that the invention can be provided with a handle (40) with the same central-transversal position and lower length; in this case the ends of the handle (40) are joined against the external side of the upper plastic sheet (1a), as expressly shown in Fig. 2.
