Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of aseptic containers, and more particularly to a container that can extract a liquid from a first opening and frozen contents from a second opening.
  • a "juice box” is a small container used to carry and consume drinks (most often juice). They are most popular with parents, who enjoy the ability to quickly give their children a single serving of juice. The shape of the product makes them easy for kids and adults to hold and use.
  • Juice boxes were originally designed in a specific fashion, a style that proved successful as it has remained, mostly, unchanged since the 1980s. Manufacturers chose a box shape because they foresaw this shape as being the most convenient and easily handled. Juice boxes typically come with a covered hole and an attached straw which makes it easier for children to drink and results in less of a mess. However, there are some juice boxes available for purchase equipped with sides that are penetrable by the straw anywhere or a pull tab.
  • Paperboard is used to shape the product and give the box an extra source of strength
  • an outer layer of Polyethylene forms a liquid-tight seal and is the layer used to print the information and graphics on the packaging
  • an inner layer of aluminum is used to keep light and oxygen out (as well preventing the juice from becoming spoiled without having to use extra preservatives).
  • One issue with current juice box packaging is it is designed for the juice to be consumed in its liquid form only. If the contents were frozen, one would have to wait for them to thaw or would have to use a tool to destroy the box to access the contents.
  • An "ice pop” or “popsicle” is a water-based frozen snack. It is made by freezing flavored liquid, such as fruit juice, or soda-pop around a stick. Once the liquid freezes solid, the stick can be a handle to hold the treat.
  • the first recorded "ice-pop” was created by Frank Epperson of San Francisco, who left a glass of "soda pop water and flavored powder" outside on his back porch with a wooden mixing stick extending therefrom. Today, the annual sales are of ice-pops exceed two billion dollars.
  • ice-pop packaging is designed for the ice-pop to be consumed in its solid frozen form only. Many consumers, however, would like to have the option to consume the ice-pop, which is usually made of juice, in a liquid state from the same packaging. Thawed ice-pops become very messy and it is usually impossible to set the ice-pop container down without the thawed contents spilling out.
  • the invention provides a dual-purpose disposable aseptic container that overcomes the fore-mentioned disadvantages of the single-purpose ice-pop and single- purpose juice container packaging known in the art.
  • a consumable-product container that includes a plastically deformable straw, an aseptically sealed flexible body defining an interior volume, and an amount of fluid disposed within the interior volume.
  • the fluid for example, fruit juice, has a liquid state and a frozen state.
  • a first selectively openable aperture is at a first end of the body, the first selectively openable aperture being openable by penetrating a portion of the first end of the body with the plastically deformable straw.
  • the first selectively openable aperture is sized to permit the fluid to escape the interior volume in a liquid state but is too small to allow it to escape in a frozen state.
  • a second selectively openable aperture is at a second end of the body and is large enough to permit the fluid to escape the interior volume in its frozen state.
  • the second end of the body is removable to open the second selectively openable aperture.
  • the removable member is a tear-line located at the second end of the body and, when pulled, it causes a first portion of the second end of the body to separate from a second portion of the second end of the body, thereby exposing the second selectively openable aperture.
  • the aseptically sealed flexible body is a traditional children's single-serve juice box.
  • the present invention provides a consumable-product container that includes an aseptically sealed body defining an interior volume and an amount of fluid disposed within the interior volume.
  • the fluid has a liquid state and a frozen state.
  • the body features a straw receiving area formed with a material soft enough to be penetrated by a flexible plastic straw and not requiring any other tools. When penetrated, the straw receiving area forms at least a partially watertight seal around the straw.
  • a removable member is provided that, when removed from the body, creates an opening in the body sized to permit the fluid to escape the interior volume in the frozen state.
  • the removable member is a strip of material along the body and formed to separate from the body when pulled.
  • the removable member is integral with the body.
  • the removable member is created by forming lines of weakness on either side thereof, so that when the removable member is pulled, the body tears along the lines of weakness, which allows the strip to separate from the body.
  • the removable member is a first section of the body that separates from a second section of the body to expose the opening.
  • the present invention also provides a consumable-product container that includes a straw and an aseptically sealed body defining an interior volume.
  • the body includes a first end with a liquid removal opening, the liquid removal opening forming at least a partial watertight seal around the straw, a second end opposite the first end, the second end having a frozen content removal opening sized to permit contents of the body having a volume of at least 50% of the interior volume of the body to be removed from the body in a frozen state, and a selectively removable member operable to expose the frozen content removal opening when activated by a user.
  • a reference to "A and/or B," when used in conjunction with open-ended language such as “comprising” can refer, in one embodiment, to A without B (optionally including elements other than B); in another embodiment, to B without A (optionally including elements other than A); in yet another embodiment, to both A and B (optionally including other elements); etc.
  • the term "another,” as used herein, is defined as at least a second or more.
  • the terms “including” and/or “having,” as used herein, are defined as comprising (i.e., open language).
  • the term “coupled,” as used herein, is defined as connected, although not necessarily directly, and not necessarily mechanically.
  • the terms “about” or “approximately” apply to all numeric values, whether or not explicitly indicated. These terms refer to a range of numbers that one of skill in the art would consider equivalent to the recited values (i.e., having the same function or result). Often these terms may include numbers rounded to the nearest significant figure.
  • ice-pop comprises, solidified water like substances with artificial or natural flavor.
  • Non-limiting examples are: freezer pops, popsicles, or ice creams.
  • the term "aseptic” refers to sealing that prevents germs from penetrating the sealed barrier.

  • the dual-purpose popsicle mold/liquid drink package 400 should be sturdy enough to sustain freezing. Freezing or solidification is a phase transition in which a liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered to or below its freezing point. Most of fluid drinks to be used with the dual-purpose popsicle mold/liquid drink container 400 are composed mostly of water. For most fluid drinks, the melting and freezing points are the same temperature; however, certain substances possess differing solid-liquid transition temperatures. As an example, the freezing point or melting point of water is the temperature at which water changes phase from a liquid to a solid or vice versa. The freezing point describes the liquid to solid transition while the melting point is the temperature at which water goes from a solid (ice) to liquid (water). Ordinarily the freezing point of water is 0° C or 32° F.
  • the dual- purpose popsicle mold/liquid drink container 500 is in the shape of a traditional cup.
  • One main feature of the container 500 is that the liquid removal and solid removal occurs at the same end 503 of body 506, and end portion 521 acts a barrier for both liquid and solid.
  • the popsicle mold/liquid drink container 500 includes a handle 501, and a straw 517. Both are usually disposed on the outside the container body 506 inside its own pouch, such as pouch 510.
  • the handle 501 could be made out of wood or plastic, preferably disposable.
  • the handle 501 and the straw 517 are to be removed from pouch 510 and inserted into the same end 503 through end portion 521 of body 506 by a user.
  • a liquid removal aperture 531 is created. Since the straw tip 507 is sharp or angled, it allows for an easy insertion. Because of the penetration of end portion 521, the liquid removal aperture 531 forms a partial watertight seal around the straw 517. Liquid is then allowed to escape the container 500 by suction placed on the straw 517 or by squeezing the sides of body 506.
  • Selectively removable a member 505 is also disposed on the same end 503 along second removal aperture 512.
  • a user before freezing, a user can form a handle by locating the tip 513 of handle 501, inserting it into end portion 521 of same end 503 of the body 506, and allowing the liquid content to transform into a solid.
  • the frozen liquid solidifies around handle 501 making it an excellent tool for extraction of the solid content.
  • body 506 is then removed downward, allowing the interior volume to be removed in a frozen state 509 (not shown). Since solidification occurred around handle 501, handle 501 allows holding the ice treat upside down, as shown in FIG. 5C.
  • FIG. 5C is an upside-down view of FIGS. 5A and 5B.
  • the selectively removable member 505 has been removed to expose the frozen content 509.
  • the advantage of this embodiment is significant. Its novel approach allows this dual-purpose container 500 to minimize production costs.
  • a user can use the tip of the straw 507 to penetrate end portion 521 of the body 506 and allow for its content in liquid form to exit. Keeping the same orientation, if punctured by the tip 513 (shown in FIG. 5 A) of handle 501, a frozen-treat 509 could be held if frozen.
  • Another advantage of being openable in an upright orientation is that if handle 513 or straw 517 is not available or lost, by removing the end portion 521, the ice-treat 509 could be eaten using a spoon, and the juice could be consumed as if drinking from a regular cup.
  • FIG. 6A shows another embodiment of the dual-purpose popsicle mold/liquid drink container 600.

  • FIGS. 7 A and 7B depict dual-purpose popsicle mold/liquid drink container 700 depicting a square pyramid body 706.
  • FIG. 7A includes a square removable end portion 703 that is a lid to cover and protect the inside contents of the body 706.
  • the lid 703 is sufficiently frail to allow a straw 707 to puncture to create a first liquid removal aperture 721, but strong enough to protect the liquid content.
  • the lid 703 is also removable, disposable, and comprises tongue-tab 731 for easy grabbing by a user. As the lid 703 is removed, the solid removal opening 712 is exposed.
  • the pyramid aseptic package container 700 internally contains a cuboid 702 volume of liquid of between about 4 oz., and lOoz., or between about 100 ml. and 300 ml.
  • a cuboid 702 ice-pop 709 is created inside as shown in FIG. 7B.
  • This design incorporates flexible holding-wings 701 at the bottom end of body 706.
  • the holding- wings 701 are used to push up the frozen treat 709 through the solid removal opening 712.
  • the large surface area of the holding-wings 701 is helpful to children because it allows them for a better grip. It also prevents the rapid melting of the ice-treat since there is no direct contact with the cuboid 702 volume of frozen liquid.
  • the dual-purpose popsicle mold/liquid drink container 800 of FIGS. 8A and 8B is a cylinder shaped body 806 that uses a straw-handle 801 for extraction of liquid.
  • the straw-handle 801 should be made of a stiff enough material to enable a user to hold an ice-treat after freezing. Since, the straw-handle 801 is also a straw; a user can likewise sip the juice content.
  • a removable cover 821 or screwable lid is disposed to seal the first selectively openable aperture 811.
  • the straw-handle 801 combo is further disposed on a selectively openable aperture 812 (not shown). Before using the drink container to have a drink, the lid 821 is removed to allow the contents inside the body 806 to escape in liquid form.

  • At least one advantage of this embodiment is that a separate straw or a handle-stick is not needed, saving in packaging and assembly costs.
  • the straw-handle 801 should be made of hard enough materials for it not to bend when holding the ice-pop. A durometer hardness of between: 10 to 85 could be used. Examples of such as a hard plastic usable for this embodiment include: acetals, acrylics, amino resins, cellulosics, phenolics, polyamides, polyesters, polyolefins, polyurethanes, styrenes, vinyls and any combination and more.

  • the novel drink container 900 is made of an aseptically sealed flexible material defining an interior liquid 908 volume.
  • a first selectively openable aperture 921 at a first end 903 of the body 906 is created for the penetration of a straw (not shown).
  • a second selectively openable aperture 912, (not visible in this view) is disposed on the same end 903 of body 906 and is created after the removal of a tear-line 905. Tear-line 905, a strip of material, is created for the entire length of the circumference of body 906.
  • the drink container 900 is openable both by penetrating a portion of the first end 903, with a straw or removing tear-line 905 at the same first end 903.
  • the first selectively openable aperture 921, of first end 903 of the body 906 is covered by an area 924 of foil or thin plastic either removable or penetrable by a tip of a straw. Because of the size difference, if the contents of the juice box 900 were frozen, the contents could not be removed through the smaller first aperture 921.
  • FIG. 9A features an optional window 913.
  • This window 913 allows for a user to see how much liquid or solid content is inside container 900.
  • Window 913 could be made of clear plastic material and be part of the aseptic packaging.
  • Aseptic paper packages are usually made of several layers of laminated paper and plastic. In one of the paper laminates, a sliver of paper can be cut off before the plastic lamination is placed. Hence, the clear plastic laminate would cover the paper cut-out creating a window 913 into the liquid 908 inside the package.
  • FIG. 9B After placing the container of FIG. 9A into a freezer, and giving it enough time for the liquid to solidify, a frozen treat is created as shown in FIG. 9B.

  • One of the advantages of container 900 that the body 906 is kept in an upright position allowing for removal of liquid without a straw at all.
  • a wedge-like edge 901 is created as part of the container 900.
  • This "v" shaped folded structure at the bottom end 911 of body 906 creates a wedge-like edge 901 for pushing the ice treat after solidification.
  • a user can use two fingers to remove the ice-treat through openable aperture 912.
  • the window 913 allows for the bottom edge 919 of the ice-treat 909 to show how much is left inside the body 906.
  • FIG. 9C an upward tilted view allows for a closer look into the "v" shaped folded structure 901 at the bottom end 911 of body 906.
  • the "v" shaped folded structure creates a grabbing surface 917, for two or more finger to be inserted into the bottom of the container 900.
  • Flexible straw 907 is still attached to the outside surface of body 906 as it was not used since ice-treat solid 909 is coming out of aperture 912.
  • a user 921 uses the thumb and index finger to squeeze the "v" shape grabbing surface 917. The heat released from the thumb and index finger melts some solid 909 allowing the easy removal of the frozen content through aperture 912.
