Description

Multiple container of selective opening.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The invention, as expressed in the statement of the present specification, refers to a multiple selective opening package, which provides several advantages and innovative features inherent to its particular configuration, which will be described in detail below and which represent a novelty. in the current state of the art.

The object of the present invention focuses specifically on an envelope type package comprising two or more independent compartments to incorporate different liquid or solid products, especially sauces and condiments such as tomato, oil, salt, pepper etc. although not limited to this, since it can also cover liquid or solid products from the cosmetic, hygiene and cleaning sectors. In any case, in addition, it is equipped with a selective opening system that provides the possibility of opening or not opening one or more of these compartments at the same time to dose together or separately the different products it contains.

FIELD OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION

The scope of the present invention is part of the sector of the industry dedicated to the manufacture of packaging, particularly in the field of packaging shaped as an envelope with an easy opening system by tearing.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

As a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that multiple types of different packages are known in the market specifically for a very wide range of uses and applications.

Among these packages are those that have different compartments to house more than one different product independently, however, they are usually rigid type containers and usually have a common opening system to dose the products together.

However, at least on the part of the applicant it is unknown the existence of any package of type envelope or invention that has technical, structural and constitutive characteristics such as those presented here proposed, as claimed, and that allows to select the type of opening to be made in it to pour only one product, pour more than one or pour all that it incorporates in its different compartments, allowing, therefore, that the products of the compartments that do not open remain intact and suitable to be poured and consumed later.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

Thus, the selective opening multiple container of the invention is configured as a novelty within its field of application, the distinguishing characterizing details being conveniently included in the final claims that accompany the present specification.

In a concrete way, what the invention proposes is, as already noted above, a package of type envelope, understood as such, those constituted from a sheet body of any material appropriate to the product to be contained, which is attached in its edges by heat sealing and, from this configuration, it comprises, at least, two independent compartments suitable for incorporating different products in each of them and that can be both liquid and solid, this packaging also presenting the innovative feature of having an opening system, which being of the type based on the tearing of semiperforated or weakened lines for this purpose, is specially designed to be selective and provide the user with the possibility of opening only one, more than one or all the compartments with which once, leaving in its case intact those that you do not want to open in order to be able to dose several or all the pr products that contain or only some of them separately.

To do this, the aforementioned container has, at the appropriate ends, with several semi-perforated lines distributed so that each one covers one, more than one or all the compartments of the container and, as the user decides, when tearing one or the other, they will open to let the content out one, more than one or all the compartments.

In addition, optionally, the package has additional semi-perforated lines to separate, if desired, some compartments from others and keep intact and separate those that are not to be used.

It is important to note that the proposed package is eminently intended to contain food products consisting of sauces and condiments, for example sauces such as tomato, mayonnaise, mustard, crushed tomato and / or oil, vinegar, lemon, soy and / or salt, pepper, cinnamon, chopped parsley, herbs for salad and / or sugar, soluble coffee, cocoa, etc. Although, as noted in previous sections, it is not limited to this and also covers solid or liquid products from other sectors such as cosmetics, hygiene and cleaning.

The advantage provided by the package thus constituted is the ease in the seasoning of a dish / sandwich / drink / ..., since with a single container it can be prepared or seasoned said dish, sandwich or drink without having to acquire or open two different containers , logically the doses of the container, preferably, will be designed for a single use, so that the existence of open boats whose contents deteriorate is avoided, which is especially problematic in establishments open to the public. The mixing of the condiments is instantaneous and homogeneous and the origin of all the condiments used is guaranteed. Likewise, it is a container specially indicated for food inside airplanes, trains, or other means of transport that, for safety reasons, limit the type of containers that can be shipped, being of a limited volume and therefore possible of being shipped.

A specific example of the package can be a container with a first compartment with crushed tomato, a second compartment with olive oil and a third compartment with salt, each of said compartments being sized according to the volume of product appropriate for its joint use. With this package you can easily prepare the typical “bread with tomato” by applying the three ingredients together and homogeneously on the bread. With the advantage that, thanks to the selective opening system, if the user wishes to, for example because he does not like or does not like to take salt, he can avoid opening the compartment that contains the salt and only opening the compartments of the tomato and the oil, leaving intact the salt compartment that, in addition, may be opened on another occasion if the user so wishes.

Another example may be a container with a compartment with soluble coffee, a second compartment with sugar and a third compartment with powdered milk or condensed milk in cream. In this case with a single container you can prepare a coffee with or without sugar and with or without milk. And sugar and / or milk, if they have not been used to open with the selective opening system only the compartments of the desired products, remain intact to be used on another occasion.

The described multiple selective opening container consists, then, in an innovative structure of 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 grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that is being made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, a description is attached to the present specification, as an integral part thereof, in which it is illustrative and not limiting the following has been represented:

Figure number 1.- Shows a schematic elevational view of an example of the selective opening multiple container, object of the invention, specifically an example with two independent compartments, the essential part and elements comprising it being appreciated; Y

Figure 2 shows a view similar to the previous one of the package of the invention, in another example thereof, in this case with three independent compartments for three different products, the different semi-perforated lines of selective opening being incorporated.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the aforementioned figures, and according to the numbering adopted, it can be seen in them non-limiting examples of the selective opening multiple container of the invention, which comprises the parts and elements that are indicated and described in detail to continuation.

Thus, as observed in said figures, the package in question consists of an envelope-shaped body, constituted from a laminar body (1) comprising two layers joined by their edges (2) by folding lines of the own material and / or by means of heat-sealed joints, comprising at least two independent compartments (3), separated by intermediate joints (4) of the two layers of material, for example heat-sealed, suitable for incorporating different liquid or solid products in each of they.

Said body (1) also has a selective opening system, based on several semi-perforated lines (5) of tearing that are arranged in number and position such that, by tearing only one of them, it can be opened at once: Either only one compartment (3), or more than one compartment (3), or all the compartments (3) that the package has, leaving, where appropriate, the rest of the compartments (3) perfectly closed and intact to continue conserving properly the product contained inside.

Preferably, the semi-perforated lines (5, 5 '), which at the edges (2) of the package have notches (6) that facilitate the start of tearing, being arranged such that, by tearing only one of them, it is possible open only one of any of the compartments (3) that the container has, leaving the rest of the compartments (3) closed and intact.

For this, in a preferred embodiment, such as the one shown in the examples of Figures 1 and 2, the body (1) of the package is rectangular and the semi-perforated lines (5) are placed parallel to each other and to one of the edges of the body ( 1) in which they can cover all compartments (3) provided therein.

Thus, when the package has two compartments (3) (Figure 1), a first complete semi-perforated line (5) is contemplated, that is to say that it crosses both compartments (3), and a second segmented semiperforated line (5 ') in two sections, each of which only covers one of the compartments (3), in such a way that, if it is desired to open both compartments, the entire semi-perforated line (5) must be torn and if not, any of the sections covered by each compartment, according to the product you want to consume, the other being closed and intact.

When the package has, for example, three compartments (3) (figure 2), a complete semi-perforated line (5) is crossed that crosses the three compartments (3), and several segmented semiperforated lines (5 ') in sections or formed by a short segment, each of which encompasses one or two of the compartments (3), considering in this case that the central compartment (3) can have different dimensions to the rest so that it protrudes and joins the semi-perforated segmented lines (5 ') only reach said central compartment (3) without affecting the others.

When the package has more than three compartments (3) (variant not shown), at least one complete semiperforated line (5) is provided that crosses all compartments (3), and several segmented semiperforated lines (5 ') in short segments or segments that cover one or two or more compartments (3), provided that the central compartments (3) may have different dimensions than the rest so that the segmented semi-perforated lines (5 ') reach only them and do not affect the rest.

Optionally, the package also has additional semi-perforated lines (51) in the intermediate joints (4) that separate each of its compartments (3) in order to allow their separation before use or once opened some and keep those that are intact separate those that are empty for later use.

Describing sufficiently the nature of the present invention, as well as the way of putting it into practice, it is not considered necessary to make its explanation more extensive so that any person skilled in the art understands its scope and the advantages that derive from it, stating that, within its essentiality, it may be carried out in other embodiments that differ in detail from that indicated by way of example, and to which it will also achieve the protection that is sought provided that it does not alter, change or modify its fundamental principle .
