Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a combination of a container and a pouring insert, where the container has a container neck with a substantially upwards directed mouth, where the pouring insert is intended for disposition within the container mouth and having a body with projecting pouring edge which by placing the pouring insert in the container neck protrudes up over the mouth, the pouring insert including a first lower tightly fitting packing between the exterior of the body of the pouring insert and the interior of the container neck.
  • the invention furthermore includes a pouring insert for use in combination with a container as described above.
  • DK utility model registration BR 2000 00299 is disclosed a drip-proof " pouring spout for disposition in the neck of a container, where this pouring spout forms a slot between its exterior and the interior of the neck for collecting possible drops, where the exterior of the pouring spout is smaller than the opening of the neck, so mat the drops are caught inside the neck.
  • the two utility models have in common that they utilise a slot between the pouring spout and the inner side of the opening of the container/pot.
  • the purpose of this slot is that possible drops situated at the edge of the pouring spout after pouring liquid runs down into this slot instead of running down the container/pot.
  • the purpose is solved with a combination of a container and a pouring insert, where the container has a container neck with a substantially upwards directed mouth, where the pouring insert is intended for disposition within the container mouth and having a body with projecting pouring edge which by placing the pouring insert in the container neck protrudes up over the mouth.
  • the pouring insert includes a first lower tightly fitting packing between the exterior of the body of the pouring insert and the interior of the container neck.
  • the pouring insert furthermore includes a second upper packing which encloses the body and where the packing - when the pouring insert is disposed in the container neck - includes a lower part and an upper part, where the upper part is sealingly bearing against the inner side of the container neck, and where the lower part has perforations communicating with a reservoir which furthermore is delimited by the body of the pouring insert, the inner side of the container neck and the first packing.
  • a pouring insert for use in a combination as specified above, where the pouring insert includes a first lower tightly fitting packing intended to be inserted between the exterior of the body of the pouring insert and the interior of the container neck, where the pouring insert also includes a second upper packing enclosing the body, and where the second upper packing includes a lower part and an upper part, where the upper part is intended for sealingly bearing against the inner side of the container neck, and where the lower part has perforations for through-flow of intercepted drops to a reservoir between the first and the second packing.
  • the packings will preferably be made of a flexible material so that they by the placing of the pouring insert in the container neck are bent upwards in such a way that the packings will each have an upper part bearing against the container neck, and a lower part bearing against the body of the pouring insert.
  • the body of the pouring insert is centred in the container neck.
  • a combination of a pouring insert and a container as specified above may have the advantage that the pouring direction may be freely chosen as the pouring insert is then not provided with a special pouring spout with delimited pouring edge.
  • the container Before use and before the pouring insert is inserted in the neck of the container, the container may be filled with liquid. After ending application of a combination of a container and a pouring insert according to the invention, the reservoir may be emptied of collected liquid drops by taking out the pouring insert from the neck of the container and empty the drops into e.g. a wash basin.
  • the combination of a container and a pouring insert according to the invention will in a preferred embodiment be of such a nature that the upper part of the second packing is sealingly bearing against the interior of the mouth of the container neck.
  • the second upper packing is sealingly bearing against the interior of the mouth of the container neck.
  • a pouring insert according to the invention will furtliermore have a pouring edge with a diameter which is less than the diameter of the second upper packing.
  • the drops that subsequent to ended pouring of the container may accumulate at the pouring edge of the pouring insert, will run down along the outer side of the body due to the surface tension that may be in the liquid. However, so large drops may occur that they, instead of running down the outer side of the body, will drip down from the pouring edge.
  • the pouring insert so that the pouring edge has a diameter which is less than the diameter of the second upper packing is thus achieved that even these large drops will be collected in the reservoir formed by the two packings and the outer side of the body and the interior of the container neck.
  • the upper part of the second packing projects beyond the mouth of the container neck. This means that it has greater diameter than the mouth also when the pouring insert is inserted in the container neck.
  • a sufficient sealing may e.g. be achieved if the upper packing has a thickening for bearing against the inner side of the container neck, and otherwise as thinner part extending outside the container neck, even maybe outside the outer upper diameter of the container.
  • the diameter of the pouring edge of the body may be designed with a diameter which is greater than the diameter of the mouth, and it is ensured anyway that drops are collected by the second packing, as this has greater diameter than the pouring edge.
  • the pouring insert may include an inner unit with a seat for a ball with buoyancy, where the seat is designed with a conical sidewall, or with a sidewall which in another way is provided with a circular cross-section and is downwards tapering, so that the ball fits tightly against the seat when the container with the pouring insert is standing upright, where the seat is adapted so that the ball will leave the seat when the container is tilted.
  • the unit will be equipped with a top including a grating.
  • a grating may substantially consist of concentric circles with some open areas between these through which the liquid may flow freely when pouring.
  • the ball will be made of a plastic material with buoyancy but may also in another embodiment be made of a other materials, e.g. metal.
  • alternative embodiment is constituted by a ball made of a metal alloy, such as stainless steel, where the ball has a hollow interior.
  • a combination of a container and a pouring insert with automatic closing function as described above may also be used for dry material, such as spices, sugar or similar.
  • the top may be equipped with a button with an opening/closing function where the button by design prevents liquid or powder from being poured out of the container.
  • the function provides security against inadvertent waste, e.g. when the container turns over or when transported.
  • the button may be connected with a rod going through the top and holding the ball in its sealing seat. The rod may thus be designed at the end pointing down against the ball so that it follows the curvature of the ball. By pressing the button down, the rod is moved down against the ball which is locked into the seat. When wanting to pour liquid out of the container, the ball is only to be released again.
  • the button may e.g. be a screw button, or a button with built-in spring mechanism, so that the pressure from the rod down onto the ball may be released or established by a light push on the button.
  • a perforated plate which substantially covers the lower opening of the pouring insert.
  • the perforated plate may e.g. be a plate with a number of circular holes in it, it may be a grate-shaped structure which possibly may include concentric shapes.
  • the plate may be made of a plastic material or possibly a metal alloy.
  • a pouring insert according to the invention may have a body which is substantially trumpet-shaped with a cylindric lower part and a projecting upper part.
  • the advantage of this design of the pouring insert is i.a. that the liquid during pouring is conducted out of the container at a constant flow rate.
  • a pouring insert according to the invention may have a sharp pouring edge.
