Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de recueillir des gouttes depuis des robinets de sortie montés sur des distributeurs de liquide, telles des boîtes en carton possédant six faces, qui sont communément utilisées pour le vin, la bière ou les jus. L’invention porte également sur un ramasse-gouttes destiné à être monté sur des distributeurs de liquide dotés de robinets de sortie. Ces distributeurs de liquide dotés de robinets de sortie sont encore très utilisés, car ils présentent plusieurs avantages : un faible poids, une grande résistance et une grande facilité d’usage entre autres. Toutefois lesdits distributeurs présentent quelques inconvénients tel un robinet de sortie qui laisse couler des gouttes, ce qui non seulement n’est pas très hygiénique mais risque d’abîmer les habits, les tapis, etc. La présente invention permet de recueillir efficacement toutes les gouttes, éliminant ainsi tout désagrément pour les utilisateurs. Le ramasse-gouttes peut être réutilisé ce qui le rend facile d’emploi, économiquement intéressant et écologique. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le ramasse-gouttes est fixé à un distributeur de liquide en insérant des dispositifs de fixation simples dans les ensembles emballages sur la partie inférieure du distributeur de liquide. Lorsque le distributeur de liquide est vide, le ramasse-gouttes peut être retiré et réutilisé sur un autre distributeur de liquide plein.
