CAMPO DE APLICACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN FIELD OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION
El campo de aplicación de la presente invención se enmarca dentro del sector de la industria dedicada a la fabricación de productos de mercadotécnica, abarcando al mismo tiempo el ámbito de los productos de protección alimentaria y, así mismo, la fabricación de tapas para vasos. The field of application of the present invention is framed within the industry sector dedicated to the manufacture of marketing products, at the same time encompassing the field of food protection products and, likewise, the manufacture of lids for glasses.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
El objetivo de la presente invención es desarrollar un medio que impida que se puedan introducir elementos o sustancias potencialmente nocivas en los vasos de bebidas de las personas que se encuentran en lugares públicos, ya sea de manera accidental o intencionada. The objective of the present invention is to develop a means that prevents potentially harmful elements or substances from being introduced into the beverage glasses of the people who are in public places, either accidentally or intentionally.
Otro de los objetivos es, al mismo tiempo, evitar que por un choque fortuito entre dos personas se pueda producir derrame o escape del contenido del vaso, lo que en ocasiones podría ser motivo de enfrentamientos o discusiones, especialmente entre jóvenes. Another objective is, at the same time, to avoid that a fortuitous collision between two people can lead to spillage or leakage of the contents of the glass, which could sometimes be the cause of confrontations or discussions, especially between young people.
Ello se debe a que, cada vez es más frecuente la utilización de productos químicos tipo pastillas para anular la voluntad y conciencia de las personas, práctica que, desgraciadamente, se está convirtiendo en un problema mucho más habitual de lo que podría pensarse en fiestas, discotecas y festivales. This is due to the fact that the use of pill-type chemicals to nullify people's will and consciousness is becoming more frequent, a practice that, unfortunately, is becoming a much more common problem than might be thought of at parties, discos and festivals.
Por otra parte, si bien existen productos similares en el mercado y que cumplen una función similar, en la mayoría de los casos, o bien se trata de tapas de un solo uso, normalmente de plástico, que se dispensan junto con el propio vaso también de un solo uso en que se comercializan ciertas bebidas en determinados establecimientos, normalmente para beber el contenido una vez fuera del establecimiento, por ejemplo cafés o refrescos, o bien se trata de tapas de carácter más duradero, destinadas a un uso doméstico, para camping o similares, también hechas normalmente de plástico pero con materiales de mayor calidad y resistencia. On the other hand, although there are similar products on the market and that serve a similar function, in most cases, or they are single-use lids, usually made of plastic, which are dispensed together with the glass itself. single-use in which certain drinks are marketed in certain establishments, usually to drink the content once out of the establishment, for example coffees or soft drinks, or it is more durable caps, intended for domestic use, for camping or similar, also normally made of plastic but with higher quality and resistance materials.
En ningún caso, sin embargo, se conoce la existencia de una tapa especialmente ideada como elemento efímero de protección de la bebida que se está consumiendo en un vaso de cualquier tipo lo cual, junto a sus características específica, supone una solución original que aporta una utilidad extra diferente a lo ya conocido en el mercado y que además cuenta con un añadido publicitario al estar ideada como producto de mercadotécnica para ser dispensado de modo gratuito en el propio establecimiento junto con la bebida, de manera similar a como se hace con los posavasos. In no case, however, is the existence of a lid specially devised as an ephemeral element for the protection of the drink being consumed in a glass of any type known, which, together with its specific characteristics, represents an original solution that provides a extra utility different from what is already known in the market and that also has an added advertising as it is designed as a marketing product to be dispensed free of charge in the establishment together with the drink, in a similar way as it is done with the coasters .
Por tanto, y como referencia al estado actual de la técnica, cabe señalar que, al menos por parte del solicitante, se desconoce la existencia de ninguna otra tapa de protección para vasos de bebidas que presente características técnicas iguales o semejantes a las que presenta la que aquí se reivindica. EXPLICACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN Therefore, and as a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that, at least on the part of the applicant, the existence of any other protection cover for beverage glasses that has the same or similar technical characteristics as that presented by the that is claimed here. EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION
La tapa de protección para vasos de bebidas que la invención propone se configura, pues, como una destacable novedad dentro de su campo de aplicación, ya que, a tenor de su implementación y de manera taxativa, se alcanzan satisfactoriamente los objetivos anteriormente señalados como idóneos, estando los detalles caracterizadores que lo hacen posible y que la distinguen recogidos en las reivindicaciones finales que acompañan a la presente descripción. The protection cover for beverage glasses that the invention proposes is configured, therefore, as a remarkable novelty within its field of application, since, according to its implementation and exhaustively, the objectives previously indicated as suitable are satisfactorily achieved , being the characterizing details that make it possible and that distinguish it included in the final claims that accompany the present description.
En concreto, lo que la invención propone, como se ha apuntado anteriormente, es una tapa que, siendo de las conformadas por un cuerpo circular y dimensionadas para ajustarse a la embocadura de los vasos destinados para el consumo de bebidas más corrientes evitando derrames, está ideada con la finalidad específica de servir además de protección alimentaria para evitar la eventual introducción accidental y/o malintencionada de sustancias indeseadas en el interior del vaso de un usuario consumidor de una bebida por parte de terceros, para lo cual se distingue por el hecho de estar diseñada y fabricada como un elemento de mercadotécnica sencillo, barato y de un solo uso, para que, por ejemplo, se pueda regalar al servir la propia bebida, estando dotada de elementos impresos, de medios simples de acople y ajuste a la embocadura del vaso, y de medios de apertura fácil que permiten abrirla con un solo dedo de la propia mano con que se sujeta el vaso, para beber el contenido del vaso y volver a cerrarla sin tener que quitar toda la tapa o utilizar la otra mano para ello. Specifically, what the invention proposes, as previously mentioned, is a lid that, being one of those made up of a circular body and dimensioned to fit the mouth of the glasses intended for the consumption of more common beverages, avoiding spills, is devised with the specific purpose of serving in addition to food protection to prevent the eventual accidental and / or malicious introduction of unwanted substances into the glass of a consumer user of a drink by third parties, for which it is distinguished by the fact be designed and manufactured as a simple, cheap and single-use marketing element, so that, for example, it can be given as a gift when serving the drink itself, being provided with printed elements, simple means of coupling and adjusting to the mouthpiece of the glass, and easy opening means that allow it to be opened with a single finger of the hand that holds the glass, to drink the contents of the glass and close it again without having to remove the entire cover or use the other hand for it.
Más concretamente, la tapa de protección está realizada en material desechable, biodegradable y muy económico, preferentemente cartón resistente al agua, por ejemplo cartón tipo kraft, que como es sabido se elabora a partir de papel de estraza, siendo un material especialmente apto para la inclusión de elementos impresos, los cuales, preferentemente de carácter publicitario y/o informativo, se incluyen en, al menos, una de las superficies vistas de la tapa, por ejemplo la zona circular de la parte superior de la tapa que con tal fin, preferentemente, es lisa y plana, pero sin descartar que también se incluyan elementos impresos el canto lateral de la tapa, ya que, preferentemente, como medios de acople y ajuste de la tapa a la embocadura del vaso, se ha previsto la existencia de un junquillo en forma de cerco cilindrico, de aproximadamente 5 o 10 mm de altura y 2 o 3 de grosor que, con diferentes diámetros para adaptarse a los diámetros de varios tamaños estándar de los vasos existentes en el mercado generalmente más utilizados, por ejemplo de tubo, tipo sidra o los que se utilizan actualmente en los festivales juveniles de plástico duro y gran formato y ya sean vasos de cristal, plástico duro, o plástico normal, define una superficie lateral que también es lisa y, por tanto, óptima para ser susceptible de incorporar los citados elementos impresos. More specifically, the protection cap is made of disposable, biodegradable and very economical material, preferably waterproof cardboard, for example kraft-type cardboard, which is known to be made from brown paper, being a material especially suitable for inclusion of printed elements, which, preferably of an advertising and / or informative nature, are included in at least one of the visible surfaces of the cover, for example the circular area of the upper part of the cover that for this purpose, preferably, it is smooth and flat, but it is not ruled out that printed elements also include the lateral edge of the lid, since, preferably, as means of coupling and adjusting the lid to the mouth of the glass, the existence of a Reed in the form of a cylindrical fence, approximately 5 or 10 mm high and 2 or 3 thick, with different diameters to adapt to the diameters of various sizes standard of the glasses in the market generally most used, for example tube, cider type or those currently used in youth festivals of hard plastic and large format and whether they are glass glasses, hard plastic, or normal plastic, defines a lateral surface that is also smooth and, therefore, optimal to be able to incorporate the aforementioned printed elements.
Por su parte, los citados medios de apertura y cierre fácil de la tapa, preferentemente, están determinados por la existencia de un segmento del cuerpo circular de la tapa que es abatible, en concreto un segmento circular definido por la existencia de sendos cortes radiales que lo separan del resto manteniéndolo unido únicamente por un tramo recto central donde se dobla, de manera que dicho segmento es susceptible de poder ser elevado de modo independiente al resto de la tapa, que seguirá fija a la embocadura del vaso, simplemente ejerciendo una ligera presión hacia arriba sobre el borde lateral del mismo, que constituye un tramo del antedicho junquillo, para poder beber del vaso, presión que se puede ejercer con el dedo pulgar de la misma mano con que se sujeta el vaso. Y, efectuando una presión en sentido contrario, es decir hacia abajo, sobre dicho segmento una vez elevado, se vuelve a cerrar la tapa para dejar la embocadura del vaso perfectamente protegida. For their part, the aforementioned easy opening and closing means of the lid, preferably, are determined by the existence of a segment of the circular body of the lid that is hinged, specifically a circular segment defined by the existence of respective radial cuts that they separate it from the rest, keeping it united only by a central straight section where it bends, so that this segment is capable of being raised independently from the rest of the lid, which will continue to be fixed to the mouth of the glass, simply exerting light pressure upwards on the lateral edge thereof, which constitutes a section of the above jonquil, to be able to drink from the glass, pressure that can be exerted with the thumb of the same hand with which the glass is held. And, by pressing in the opposite direction, that is to say downwards, on said segment once it is raised, the lid is closed again to leave the mouth of the glass perfectly protected.
Por último, cabe mencionar que, si bien se ha expresado que, preferiblemente la tapa está fabricada en cartón y es de carácter eminentemente desechable, ello no supone una limitación y, por tanto, opcionalmente, puede estar fabricada en cualquier otro material, por ejemplo plástico, y tampoco se descarta que pueda ser reutilizable. Lastly, it should be mentioned that, although it has been stated that, preferably, the lid is made of cardboard and is eminently disposable, this is not a limitation and, therefore, optionally, it can be made of any other material, for example plastic, and it is not ruled out that it can be reusable.
La descrita tapa de protección para vasos de bebidas representa, pues, una estructura innovadora de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para el fin a que se destina, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita. The described protection cover for beverage glasses represents, therefore, an innovative structure with structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now for the purpose for which it is intended, reasons that together with its practical utility, provide it with sufficient foundation to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.
