Definitions

  • the subject of this invention is a bottle cap-building block which can be used as a toy for children and which is applied for closing containers, especially bottles, intended for storing food products, such as mineral water, beverages, nectars, juices, dairy products and milk.
  • the cap being the subject of this invention can be used in various types of packaging, such as PET, HDPE as well as cardboard packaging. It is also possible to use this cap for closing non-toxic hygienic products, such as, for example, toothpaste packaging.
  • the solution titled: "Combination bottle cap and construction toy” is known from an American description of invention (publication number US5361919A).
  • the revealed invention is a combination of bottle cap and construction toy, which allows for joining collected caps together, using them to build figures of various shapes and in various configurations.
  • the caps described therein are encased in a hexagonal solid, with protrusions on its sides, or more precisely, there is a protrusion on every second side, and there is a recess corresponding to this protrusion on the next side.
  • caps - both the lower and the upper ones - are bevelled and there are also the recesses or protrusions corresponding to the recesses made in them, allowing to fasten the other caps together, at an angle of 45°. Similar protrusions are made also in the bottom of the cap, on its external surface. The construction of caps allows fastening them together.
  • the base of the attachment is not fitted with a socket and a mounting element protruding outside the external part of the side wall.
  • the attachment contains an element which facilitates positioning the cap for mounting and this element is selected from a group consisting of (in various caps): protrusion, recess or combination of them.
  • This invention regards also the applications and processes for producing the caps and the sets containing such caps.
  • Another solution, titled "Building block type bottle cover” is known from a Chinese description of utility model, no. CN20032127139U.
  • the utility model is a bottle cover, in particular a bottle with a building block type cover, which is intended for increasing the interest in bottle closure.
  • the bottle cap is a round box. It is equipped with a socket or plug -therefore the bottle covers can be joined together, in order to form various shapes, by connecting the plugs with the sockets.
  • the bottle cap presented therein can be used also as a toy.
  • the attachment contains an upper surface with a number of incisions, which have such shape and size so that they fit in at least one path or groove spreading out across the lower surface of the other cap's edge.
  • the path width and the incisions made in it are identical or slightly smaller than the width of cap periphery. It is possible to place several caps on one attachment in an association system, allowing to use them as building elements. Essentially there are many protrusions, marking out a number of various paths, so the attachment protection can simultaneously join several other caps together with one connection.
  • Another solution, titled "Combined packaging and plaything", is known from an English invention, no. GB19930003848.
  • the head presented therein resembles a lollipop and it is placed in packaging (essentially in the form of a cube) and is fitted with uniform, triangular splines or sockets.
  • the sockets can be snap fastened to other similar sockets and in this manner the packaging can form a constructional part of a toy.
  • the head of the lollipop can contain an extended stick, folded telescopically, in such a manner that it can be almost entirely inserted into the head. In such case the entirety can be housed in essentially cubical solid.
  • the purpose of developed invention is creating such a cap which could be used also as a building block for building various three-dimensional constructions.
  • the purpose of this invention is also the utilization of waste which is generated during the production of packaging and caps and can be used as simple toys for children.
  • the essence of the developed cap-building block in which the splines and sockets are made, consists in the fact that it is a two-sided cap-building block, which consists of a cylindrical body, on one side closed by the upper surface with, in total, four splines and sockets arranged radially and alternately on the body perimeter, on its side wall, where the splines and sockets are arranged, most favourably, in such a manner that the spline, located exactly on the opposite body side, in a straight line, corresponds to the spline, and the socket corresponds to the socket, and the size of these elements was selected in such a manner that the spline fits in the socket.
  • both the splines and sockets have the shape of cylinder in their essential part and they are round in the cross-section, and the cross-section of their outermost parts has the shape of circle in case of the spline and the shape of ring in case of the socket.
  • the splines and the sockets are made of the same material as the body.
  • the cap-building block in which the splines and sockets are made, can be also a many-sided cap-building block, consisting of a cylindrical body, on one side closed by the upper surface with a number of splines and sockets (most favourably eight in total) arranged radially and alternately on the body perimeter, on its side wall, which are arranged, most favourably, in such a manner that the spline, located exactly on the opposite body side, in a straight line, corresponds to the spline, and the socket corresponds to the socket, and the size of these elements was selected in such a manner that the spline fits in the socket.
  • the spline is located on the upper surface, on the external side of the many-sided cap-building block, and the socket is located on the upper surface of the many-sided version of the cap-building block, and additionally the spline or the socket is made on their internal side.
  • both the splines and the sockets have the shape of cylinder in their essential part and they are round in the cross-section, and the cross-section of their outermost parts has the shape of circle in case of the spiine and the shape of ring in case of the socket.
  • the splines and the sockets are made of the same material as the body.
  • the solution according to the invention allows applying waste generated in the production of packaging and using it as toys for children.
  • the solution encourages to sorting and collecting such waste as the caps, which are used in this case for education and play for children. Then they can be easily recycled later because they are already cleaned and collected in greater amount.
  • the invention allows building three-dimensional constructions, similar to and equally nice and complicated as the constructions built of building blocks in strict sense, using the caps intended for packaging closing.
  • the developed cap allows also connecting the cap-building blocks constituting the subject of the invention with the building blocks known and available on the market.

  • both the two-sided caps-building blocks (1), and the many-sided caps-building blocks (2) are made in a variant with the spline (3) on their upper surface (4) - in case of caps-building blocks (1), this version of the invention is illustrated in fig. 1 and fig. 3, and in case of many-sided caps-building blocks (2) this version of the invention is illustrated in fig. 5, as well as in a variant with the socket (5) on their upper surface (4) - in case of caps-building blocks ( ) this version of the invention is illustrated in fig. 2 and fig. 4, and in case of many-sided caps-building blocks (2') this version of the invention is illustrated in fig. 6.
  • both the two-sided cap-building block (1) and the many-sided cap-building block (2) consist essentially of the body (6), which is a cylinder, favourably made of plastic, where the parameters of the body, such as: height, radius, extrusion depth and thickness of side walls depend on the type of packaging to which the two-sided cap-building block (1) or the many-sided cap-building block (2) will be adapted.

  • the caps-building blocks constructed in this manner allow joining them together not only in two, but also in three dimensions, building three-dimensional constructions serving to children and developing their imagination, inventiveness and sense of space.
