CAMPO DE LA INVENCIÓNFIELD OF THE INVENTION
Esta invención tiene su aplicación dentro de la in¬ dustria dedicada a la fabricación de tapones coronas, pudien- do ser posteriormente utilizado por las firmas dedicadas a la publicidad.This invention has its application within the industry dedicated to the manufacture of crown caps, and can subsequently be used by advertising firms.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
HOJA SUSTITUIDA Actualmente se conoce la existencia de una pluralidad de tapones coronas que desde hace muchos años se vienen utili¬ zando en el mercado de forma convencional como nexos hermeti- zantes de distintos envases, generalmente de botellas de vi- drio, en cuyo interior se encuentran introducidos líquidos y similares, generalmente bebidas carbónicas, cervezas, refres¬ cos, etc. , etc.SUBSTITUTED SHEET At present, the existence of a plurality of crown caps is known, which for many years have been conventionally used in the market as sealing links of different packages, generally of glass bottles, into which they are introduced. liquids and the like, generally carbonated beverages, beers, soft drinks, etc. , etc.
Entre las distintas piezas de tapones corona, conocí. das por el público general como "chapas", existen pequeñas

riaciones, las cuales al margen de ser sustentadas por diferejí cias en sus dimensiones, también se constatan como la incorp ración en el interior de algún elemento marginal, que sin det_e riorar el producto contenido en el interior del envase portador, dan origen a la existencia con posterioridad a la apertura de un elemento que significa la posibilidad de que a partir de e¿ ta ubicación marginal, se logre obtener un consumo sustancial- mente mayor del producto en cuestión.
Among the different pieces of crown caps, I met. you give by the general public as "badges", there are small
Figure imgf000004_0001
Riations, which, apart from being supported by differences in their dimensions, are also found as the incorporation into the interior of some marginal element, which without deviating the product contained inside the carrier container, give rise to the existence after the opening of an element that means the possibility that from this marginal location, a substantially higher consumption of the product in question can be obtained.
También se tiene conocimiento de la existencia de de¬ terminados tapones coronas, que incorporan en su interior, cojí cretamente en la zona existente entre los rodeles de corcho hermetizante ubicados con anterioridad como elementos hermeti- zantes de la embocadura del envase y la propia chapa, unas lᬠminas que permitían un ulterior montaje sobre un marco apropia do, tal.y como puede ser álbum o similar, piezas que represen- taban la figura de un deportista, vehículo, etc., etc., permi¬ tiendo consecuentemente que con posterioridad a la extracción del tapón corona y con previa retirada del elemento hermetizají te, el consumidor pudiera efectuar el pertinente rellenado delThere is also knowledge of the existence of certain crowns caps, which incorporate inside, cushions in the area existing between the hermetic cork shells located previously as sealing elements of the mouth of the container and the sheet itself, some sheets that allowed a further assembly on an appropriate frame, such as album or similar, pieces that represented the figure of an athlete, vehicle, etc., etc., consequently allowing that with after the removal of the crown cap and with previous removal of the sealing element, the consumer could carry out the relevant filling of the
HOJA SUSTITUIDA álbum o pieza portadora de las áreas destinadas a sustentar los elementos extraídos de la pieza que actuando como un tapón cor_o na, portaba el elemento publicitario que daba origen a la co¬ lección. Sin embargo, en la práctica y por supuesto actualmente se ha constatado de que estos medios no producen el resultado ap^ tecido, sirviendo consecuentemente como único elemento de cierre el tapón corona simple y llanamente, en el cual se ha obviado prácticamente en todos los casos la ubicación de piezas margína¬ les, ya que debido a las características de los metales emplea¬ dos en la actualidad para este fin y a tenor de los revestimiejí tos realizados sobre las piezas metálicas que dan origen a los mismos, no existe la posibilidad alguna de que estas piezas pue dan deteriorarse por su contacto con el producto contenido en el envase portador y consecuentemente no sufran oxidación algu¬ na que con posterioridad puede dar origen a una contaminación del producto en cuestión.SUBSTITUTED SHEET album or piece carrying the areas intended to support the elements extracted from the piece that, acting as a corneal cap, carried the advertising element that gave rise to the collection. However, in practice and of course, it has now been found that these means do not produce the desired result, consequently serving as the sole closing element the crown cap simply and plainly, in which it has been practically ignored in all cases the location of marginal parts, since due to the characteristics of the metals currently used for this purpose and in accordance with the coatings made on the metal parts that give rise to them, there is no possibility of that these pieces may deteriorate due to their contact with the product contained in the carrier container and consequently they do not suffer any oxidation that can subsequently lead to contamination of the product in question.
Obviamente se decanta claramente que la posibilidad de promocionar el producto portado es prácticamente imposible, salvo que la venta o consumo de estos productos sea ayudada por campañas de publicidad efectuadas mediante publicidad estática, televisión, radio, etc., etc., o bien sirviendo como "exponsor" a un determinado ambiente o ámbito deportivo.Obviously it is clearly stated that the possibility of promoting the ported product is practically impossible, unless the sale or consumption of these products is aided by advertising campaigns carried out through static advertising, television, radio, etc., etc., or by serving as "exponsor" to a certain sport environment or environment.
La solución evidente a la problemática existente en la actualidad en esta materia, sería la de poder contar con un pr cedimiento que permitiera con posterioridad a su primitiva aplji cación, que un tapón corona pudiese ser utilizado en un mecanis mo o aplicación marginal, el cual potenciara el consumo de los productos incorporados en los envases portadores de los mismos.The obvious solution to the current problem in this area would be to have a procedure that would allow, after its primitive application, that a crown plug could be used in a marginal mechanism or application, which will enhance the consumption of the products incorporated in the containers carrying them.
HOJA SUSTITUIDA Sin embargo, hasta el momento no se tiene conocimiento de la existencia de un procedimiento que reúna las caracterís¬ ticas señaladas como idóneas.SUBSTITUTED SHEET However, so far there is no knowledge of the existence of a procedure that meets the characteristics indicated as suitable.
