Definitions

  • This invention regards the field of paper and cardboard containers meant for better preserving and keeping inside them, after their opening, the freshness and organolpetical characteristics of their content, by the progreessive elimination of the air inside them, a function deriving from a suitable pressure on the remaining empty part of the container itself provided with folding lines.
  • This invention represents the right solution to the problems caused by the above-said negative characteristic of the containers produced up to now.
  • the aim of this invention is that of suggesting the use of a container fit for containing any kind of eatable liquids and fluids (milk, wine, mineral water, non alcoholic drinks, fruit juices and any kinds of drinks sold on the market) and liquids of a non eatable kind, for which the progressive reduction of the space, even the total space occupied, is necessary or useful, and that being possible by the elimination of the oxygen portion which is present in any container manufactured according to the foregoing technique, thanks to its folding lines provided on the container.
  • Another aim of this invention is that of making it easier for the consumer, to catch the container, thanks to its folding lines which are ergonomic elements fostering its handling.
  • Another aim of this invention conforming with the foregoing aims, is that of obtaining a container which after the total emtying of its content (which can also be a powder content) and the consequent reduction of the original volume of the returnable empty, causes undoubtful advantages also for the disposal of urban solid waste.
  • the polyhedric container (1) is provided with folding lines or creasings, arranged either horizontally (2) or at an angle (3) according to its longitudinal dimension, so that if they are pressed or squashed, they cause the gradual reduction of the container height, like a bellows, and its volume chages according to the remaining amount of liquid which it contains.
  • the parallelepiped container (4) is provided on two opposite sides, by a vertical folding line (5) which on its two ends meets a perimetre horizontal folding line (6) and two folding lines arranged at an angle (7), in order to cause the gradual reduction of the container width like a bellows, so that the volume changes according to the remaining amount of liquid which it contains.
  • the container can be also produced in other shapes, like the cubic, the cylinder, the conic, the polyhedric with a triangular basis, the pentagonal, exagonal, octagonal and/or any other possible shape, in order that the arrangement of the folding lines can be pre-set with any angle fit for causing the volumetric reduction of the container.
  • the container can also be produced with many different materials: cardboard, composite tetra-pac cardboard, aluminium cardboard, plastic.
  • the closing device of the container can be a screw plug (8) and once the liquid which it contains is partly used, the volume of the container can be reduced by a mere hand pressing, so eliminating the air volume occupied before by the used liquid, and once it is closed again, it guarantees that the volume modification is kept constant.
  • the constancy of volume modification allows to determine, even if merely on sight or by a graded scaled printed on the container, the amount of the remaining product inside the container itself.
  • the advantages of this invention result to be many and different, according to the typology of content, when it contains wine, an acetification process often occurs in the common containers having a fixed volume, this process is physically impossible with the container subject of this invention, because it results to be always full, regardless of the remaining portion of wine present in the container itself.
  • variable volume container of this invention regardless of its shape, has got on its top a hermetic closing device, the underyling part of it, that is the body, wholly or partially, shows many folding rectilinear, horizontal, vertical or oblique lines which allow a pre-set deformation reduction of each element of the container body, by the pressure of the elements which determine its bellows function.
