Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a stopper particularly for a bottle suitable for containing wine.
  • bottles typically made of glass are used particularly to preserve and transport wine and are closed with stoppers.
  • a first known type of stopper consists of a small cylinder, obtained from a single piece of cork, which is slightly larger in diameter than the neck of the bottle, so that it can be inserted therein following radial compression.
  • the cylinder tends to expand radially, adhering to the internal surface of the bottle and accordingly closing it.
  • the cylinder Due to the material of which it is made, the cylinder is crossed by small irregularly-shaped cavities, which connect the inside of the bottle to the outside and allow a minimal exchange of air; this is essential in particular for wines that must undergo an aging process in a bottle.
  • the cavities or natural channels that pass through the cork further form, in certain portions, receptacles for a substance, known as suberin, which has antibacterial properties which limit the formation of bacteria, molds or fungi, which might cause deterioration of the wine.
  • suberin a substance which has antibacterial properties which limit the formation of bacteria, molds or fungi, which might cause deterioration of the wine.
  • Stoppers are also known which are constituted by a small cylinder obtained from a plurality of small cork cylinders which have a same radius and a reduced height and are arranged one above the other and fixed axially to each other by means of a suitable adhesive; in this manner, it is possible to obtain stoppers starting from cork pieces which are smaller and are therefore available in larger quantities.
  • stoppers In order to be able to use even small cork fragments, or to reuse pieces of cork stoppers that have already been used, for the production of stoppers, stoppers are known which are constituted by a small cylinder obtained by pressing and monolithically coupling small cork pieces by means of appropriate adhesives.
  • stopper has, due to the presence of the adhesive, a reduced air permeability, and there is also the risk that the adhesive agent might cause deterioration of the wine.
  • stoppers constituted by a small cylinder made of an elastically deformable plastic material, which is generally silicone-based and is inserted, after radial compression, in the open end of the neck of the bottle to be closed; however, said known types of stopper are completely airtight and therefore cannot be used for wines that need to age in the bottle.
  • stoppers are also in use which are made of rigid or semirigid plastics, glass, or ceramics and comprise a substantially cylindrical or frustum-shaped stem, from the lateral surface of which annular ribs protrude in some cases; the stem is inserted, optionally with the interposition of suitable gaskets, in the open end of the neck of a bottle, so as to rigidly couple by friction to the internal surface of the neck and close the bottle.
  • stopper Even these known types of stopper have the drawback that they are completely airtight and do not ensure protection of the wine against bacteria, molds or fungi.
  • WO02/055397 discloses a stopper, particularly for wine bottles, which comprises a small cylinder made at least partially of synthetic material, such as for example a polyethylene resin with the addition of an expanding agent, which can be inserted by pressing in the neck of a bottle so as to close it; at least one tubular duct is formed within the cylinder and connects the inside of the bottle to the outside environment through at least one membrane, which is permeable to oxygen but impermeable to liquids and is arranged transversely with respect to the duct.
  • synthetic material such as for example a polyethylene resin with the addition of an expanding agent
  • the membrane is constituted by a film made of an acrylic copolymer and is fixed to an appropriately provided substrate made for example of non-woven fabric.
  • the membrane can be fixed inside a small cylindrical tube arranged coaxially with respect to the tubular duct.
  • this known embodiment allows to obtain a chosen exchange of the air between the outside environment and the wine, it provides no protection to the wine against the formation of molds, fungi or bacteria that might cause its deterioration.
  • the membrane made of synthetic material, over time may release chemical substances which might cause deterioration of the wine.
  • the membrane over time, can lose its characteristics of air-permeability and/or impermeability to liquids, with the consequent risk of causing deterioration of the wine and/or allowing its leakage from the bottle.
  • the wine enters the duct formed within the cylinder, thus making contact with the membrane; such membrane, being very thin, may break under the pressure of the wine, causing the wine to leak from the bottle.
  • the aim of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, eliminating the drawbacks of the cited background art, by providing a stopper that allows to close in particular a bottle of wine, so as to prevent the leakage of said wine, at the same time ensuring a chosen exchange of air between the inside of the bottle and the outside environment.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a stopper which allows to close in particular a bottle of wine so as to reduce the formation of molds, fungi or bacteria.
  • Another object is to provide a stopper which can be obtained in a chosen quantity and has constant air-permeability characteristics.
  • Another object of the invention is to ensure that the wine does not leak from the bottle even if the bottle is inverted.
  • Another object is to provide a stopper which is structurally simple and has low manufacturing costs.
  • a stopper particularly for a bottle for containing wine which comprises a body which can be associated within or at the open end of the neck of said bottle so as to close it, characterized in that at least one block is associated axially and internally with said body and is made of a material which is permeable to air, impermeable to liquids and porous, its ends being connected, directly or by means of at least one duct, to the inside and the outside of said bottle.
  • the reference numeral 1 designates a stopper, particularly for a bottle 2, which comprises a substantially cylindrical body 3, which can be associated with an open end 4 of a neck 5 of the bottle 2 so as to close it.
  • the body 3 is constituted by a plurality of small cylinders 6, preferably made of cork, which have a same radius and approximately a same height and are arranged one on top of the other and joined together by means of a suitable adhesive.
  • the body 3 is instead constituted by a plurality of fragments 7, which are preferably made of cork and are suitably pressed and mutually joined by means of a suitable adhesive.
  • the body 3 is made of an elastically deformable plastic material, such as for example a silicone resin.
  • a cavity or receptacle 50 which is at most as high as the body 3.
  • the cavity or receptacle 50 and the block 9 contained therein are not as high as the body 3 and are arranged so that a first end 10 of the block 9 is connected directly, during use, to the inside of the bottle 2.
  • a second end 11 of the block 9 is connected to at least one duct 12, which is preferably but not necessarily approximately cylindrical and is formed in the body 3 starting from its upper end face 13, which lies opposite the lower end face 8.
  • the body 3 can be associated with the neck 5 of the bottle 2 by turning it through 180°, so that the block 9 is directly connected to the outside of the bottle 2 (environment).
  • the cavity or receptacle 50 and the block 9 contained therein may be as high as the body 3, so that the first and second ends of said block are connected directly respectively to the inside and the outside of the bottle 2; in this case, not shown in the accompanying figures, the cavity or receptacle 50, and therefore the block 9, are arranged in a position which is axial but axially offset with respect to the longitudinal central axis of the body 3, so as to allow the insertion, approximately centrally with respect to the upper end face 13, of the tip of a corkscrew which is adapted to extract the stopper 1 from the bottle 2.
  • the outer lateral surface of the block 9 is knurled, so as to improve its grip on the lateral surface of the cavity or receptacle 50 within which it is accommodated.
  • the block 9 can be obtained for example by sintering a material which has such characteristics as not to cause the wine to deteriorate, such as for example stainless steel, glass or ceramics.
  • Sintering entails the compression, in an appropriate mold, of a powder of the intended material, optionally with the addition of suitable additives, and then heating it to a temperature which is close to its melting point but such as not to change the shape of the particles; interspaces of appropriate sizes are thus formed among the various particles and allow the flow of air.
  • interspaces depend on the type of material used, on the pressure with which the particles are compacted, and on the temperature to which they are subjected; by adjusting these factors appropriately, therefore, it is possible to obtain interspaces of chosen dimensions, such as to allow the flow of a chosen amount of air but at the same time prevent the passage of wine.
  • the powder to be sintered can be enriched with a selected percentage of powder of silver or of other materials having antibacterial characteristics, such as for example titanium oxide; this helps to prevent the formation of molds, fungi or bacteria, which might cause the wine to deteriorate.
  • the interspaces that are present among the various particles that constitute the sintered material can be filled with a bactericidal substance which does not cause the wine to deteriorate, such as for example suberin, which can be obtained from cork.
  • the block 9 can be provided for example by means of a solid metallic foam, which has a porous structure; it is therefore possible to predetermine the dimensions of the pores so that they can be crossed by the air but not by a liquid such as wine.
  • the pores that are present therein can be filled with a bactericidal substance which does not cause the wine to deteriorate, such as for example suberin.
  • the body 3 tends to expand radially, adhering to the internal surface of the neck 5 and thus closing the bottle 2.
  • Air can pass through the body 3 and enter or exit from the bottle 2 through the duct 12 and the block 9; the flow-rate of the air that passes through the body 3 is determined by the dimensions of the interspaces or pores that are present in the block 9.
  • the invention has achieved the intended aim and objects, a stopper particularly for a bottle for containing wine having been provided which allows to close said bottle in order to prevent the outflow of the wine, at the same time ensuring the chosen exchange of air between the inside of the bottle and the outside environment.
  • stoppers it is also easy to produce a chosen number of stoppers according to the invention, all of which have substantially the same characteristics of air-permeability, so as to ensure, for example, uniformity of the aging process of a same wine contained in several bottles closed by said stoppers.
  • the possibility to introduce a percentage of silver or other materials having antibacterial characteristics in the composition of the block helps to prevent the formation of molds, fungi or bacteria which might cause the wine to deteriorate.
  • the possibility to impregnate a chosen region of the block with a bactericidal substance which does not cause wine deterioration further helps to reduce the formation of molds, fungi or bacteria.
  • the block is very solid and therefore does not run the risk of breaking or separating under the weight of the wine which might press thereon if, for example, the bottle is inverted.
  • the production costs of the stopper according to the invention remain low, since the stopper is made of components that are easy to produce and/or assemble.
  • a stopper 101 is shown, particularly for a bottle 102, which comprises a body 103 which is substantially T-shaped and has a head 114 which is substantially cylindrical and from which a stem 115 protrudes which can be inserted in the open end 104 of the neck 105 of the bottle 102.
  • the body 103 is made of a rigid or semirigid plastic material; annular ridges 116 protrude from the lateral surface of the stem 115, which is likewise substantially cylindrical, and are adapted to adhere by pressure to the internal surface of the neck 105 of the bottle 102.
  • the body 103 is advantageously made of glass, ceramics or rigid plastic material, and has a substantially frustum-shaped stem 115, in which the smaller end face is directed toward the inside of the bottle 102; in this case, the neck 105 of the bottle 102 is shaped complementarily with respect to the stem 115 of the body 103, so that its internal lateral surface is approximately parallel to the external lateral surface of the stem 115, so as to allow the mutual engagement of said surfaces and the fixing by friction of the stem 115 in the neck 105.
  • the body 103 is again made of glass, ceramics or rigid plastic material, and has a substantially frustum-shaped stem 115, in which the smaller end face is directed toward the inside of the bottle 102 and the larger end face has a smaller diameter than the inside diameter of the neck 105 of the bottle 102; the seal between the stem 115 and the internal surface of the neck 105 in this case is obtained by means of a suitable substantially annular first gasket 117, which is arranged coaxially and externally with respect to the stem 115, adjacent to and below the head 114.
