Description
BEVERAGE CAN HAVING A ZIPPER TYPE SLIDING CLOSURE
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an upgraded beverage can.
Background Art
It is well-known and widespread for a long time now the use of tin cans for carbonated and non-carbonated beverages.
Beverage cans of known type are typically made of aluminum and are composed of a cylindrical body made by means of a deep drawing process and of a substantially disc-shaped lid, made by molding and fixed to the border of the opening on the cylindrical body by crimping.
It is known, moreover, that over time different systems for opening beverage cans have been used.
A first opening system of known type, e.g., involved the use of a tear-off tab formed at a portion of the lid, to which a special grip ring was fixed.
By lifting and pulling the grip ring, it was therefore possible to completely remove the tab from the lid, thereby creating an opening for dispensing the beverage.
This opening system however was not without drawbacks.
In fact, the aluminum tabs, once separated from the can, were largely thrown in the environment, resulting in pollution of the environment itself.
To overcome this drawback a second opening system has been introduced, aimed in particular at preventing the removal of parts of the lid.
In particular, this second opening system, still being used, provides for a tear-off tab made on a portion of the lid and a grip ring which, once lifted, presses the tab towards the inside of the can itself.
The tab is not completely detachable in this case but, once the grip ring that presses the tab has been lifted, it is directed inwards and connected by means of a special appendix to the lid, at a stretch of the border of the dispensing opening. While being considerably widespread, this opening system too has some drawbacks mainly related to the hygienic-sanitary risk that is created.
Specifically, once the can is opened, the tab is directed inwards. This leads, inevitably, to a direct contact between the outer surface of the tab itself and the
beverage contained in the can, resulting in a potential contamination of the beverage itself.
In fact, during the entire cycle from producer to consumer cans may be exposed, even for short periods, to weather agents in addition to organic pollutants, with a clear risk for the final consumers' health.
Moreover, in both the opening systems described above, the can once opened cannot be closed, with resulting waste of part of the beverage in the event this not being completely drunk.
In addition, it is known that the need is particularly felt in many sectors of industrial activity to renew one's products and search new ones in order to better distinguish oneself from competition.
Disclosure of the Invention
The main aim of the present invention is to provide an upgraded beverage can which allows to simplify the opening and reclosing operations, allowing consumers to open and reclose the can according to their needs.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an upgraded beverage can which allows to obtain an innovative and original product, as well as of excellent workmanship.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an upgraded beverage can which allows to eliminate the contamination risks of beverage.
A further object of the present invention is to provide an upgraded beverage can which allows to overcome the mentioned drawbacks of the prior art within the ambit of a simple, rational, easy and effective to use as well as affordable solution.
The above mentioned objects are achieved by the present upgraded beverage can according to the characteristics described in claim 1.

With particular reference to these figures, an upgraded beverage can is globally indicated with reference numeral 1.
In particular, the can 1 comprises a container body 2 able to contain a beverage and a dispensing mouth 3 of the beverage made on a portion of the outer surface of the container body 2.
Preferably, the container body 2 has a shape and dimensions that are completely similar to the shape and dimensions of the beverage cans of known type.
In particular, according to a preferred embodiment, the container body 2 comprises a substantially tubular cylindrical portion 4 and has a closed and substantially flat lower portion 5, usable for supporting the can itself, and a closed and substantially flat upper portion 6.
The dispensing mouth 3 is composed of an opening formed on the surface of the container body 2, at the upper portion 6.

Advantageously, the slider 10 comprises a grip element 13 able to be gripped by a user during the sliding from the closing configuration to the opening configuration and vice versa.
In particular, the slider 10 during the sliding from the opening configuration to the closing configuration, is able to associate by interlocking the first toothed profile 1 1 with the second toothed profile 12.
On the contrary, the slider 10 sliding from the closing configuration to the opening configuration, is able to decouple the first toothed profile 11 from the second toothed profile 12.
Advantageously, the opening/closing means 7 are of the zipper type.
Alternative embodiments cannot however be ruled out wherein the opening/closing means 7 have different shapes.
With reference to Figures 3 and 4, an upgraded lid for can is shown which comprises at least a covering element 15 associable with at least a portion of a
can 16, at a dispensing mouth 17 of a beverage.
Preferably, the can 16 comprises a container body 18 having a shape and dimensions that are completely similar to the shape and dimensions of the beverage cans of known type.
In particular, according to a preferred embodiment, the container body 18 is substantially tubular cylindrical and has a closed and substantially flat lower portion 19, usable for supporting the can itself, and a closed and substantially flat upper portion 20.
In particular, the lid 14 comprises at least a dispensing opening 21 made on the covering element 15 and opening/closing means 22 of the dispensing opening 21 having:
- a sliding guide 23 associated with the edges 24 of the dispensing opening 21 ;
- a slider 25 associated with the sliding guide 23 and movable between a closing configuration, represented in Figure 3, wherein the edges 24 are contiguous to form a continuous surface able to prevent the outflow of the beverage from the dispensing opening 21 , and an opening configuration, represented in Figure 4, wherein the edges 24 are spaced apart and able to allow the outflow of the beverage from the dispensing opening 21.
Advantageously, the covering element 15 is made at least in part of a material selected from the list comprising: metal material, polymeric material and fabric. Alternative embodiments cannot however be ruled out wherein the covering element 1 is made of different materials.
The sliding guide 23 comprises a first toothed profile 27 and a second toothed profile 28 associable with one another by interlocking.
Advantageously, the slider 25 comprises a grip element 26 able to be gripped by a user during the sliding from the closing configuration to the opening configuration and vice versa.
In particular, the slider 25 during the sliding from the opening configuration to the closing configuration, is able to associate by interlocking the first toothed profile 27 with the second toothed profile 28.
On the contrary, the slider 25 sliding from the closing configuration to the opening configuration, is able to decouple the first toothed profile 27 from the
second toothed profile 28.
Advantageously, the opening/closing means 22 are of the zipper type.
