Abstract

Disclosed is a cylindrical metal container, of the beverage-can type, with a concave lower base (2) and a convex upper base (3) that fit together to facilitate the stacking of the containers. The upper base comprises an area, delimited by a scored line, which in turn comprises a ring (5) attached to the upper base. A flange (6) disposed around the delimited area of the container acts as a pouring edge. The part of the upper base within the flange is flat. By pulling the ring, the delimited area is broken and the container is opened. The diameter of the upper part of the cylinder forming the container narrows in the area immediately adjacent to the convex upper base, thus forming a neck.

MODOS DE REALIZACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN MODES OF EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

A continuación, se pasa a describir de manera breve un modo de realización de la invención, como ejemplo ilustrativo y no limitativo de ésta. Next, a way of carrying out the invention is briefly described, as an illustrative and non-limiting example of it.

En la figura 1 se aprecia un ejemplo de realización formado por un envase de pared (1) aproximadamente cilindrica, una base inferior (2) y un base superior (3). Las dos bases (2,3) tienen forma conjugada para que se puedan apilar envases similares de forma estable. La base inferior (2) es cóncava y la base superior (3) convexa y sobresale una distancia menor a la base inferior (2) para poder introducirse en la base inferior (2) de una lata dispuesta sobre ella. Generalmente, la base superior (3) está rodeada de una hendidura, como es habitual en este tipo de envases. Figure 1 shows an example of an embodiment formed by an approximately cylindrical wall container (1), a lower base (2) and an upper base (3). The two bases (2,3) have a conjugate shape so that similar containers can be stacked stably. The lower base (2) is concave and the upper base (3) is convex and protrudes a shorter distance than the lower base (2) in order to be inserted into the lower base (2) of a can arranged on it. Generally, the upper base (3) is surrounded by a slit, as is usual in this type of packaging.

De forma similar al modelo de utilidad precitado, la lengüeta (4) de apertura de la lata está en el máximo de la base superior (3) y posee una anilla (5) tiradora de apertura. El borde de la lengüeta (4) es frangible por todo o parte de su perímetro para definir la abertura de vertido. In a similar way to the aforementioned utility model, the tab (4) for opening the can is at the maximum of the upper base (3) and has an opening handle ring (5). The edge of the tongue (4) is frangible along all or part of its perimeter to define the pouring opening.

Alrededor de la lengüeta (4) se dispone un reborde (6) que sirve a la vez para aumentar la resistencia mecánica y para ejercer de borde de vertido, de forma que la hendidura de la base superior (3) no entra en contacto con el líquido. La parte de la base superior (3) dentro del reborde (6) es preferiblemente plana. Este reborde se puede realizar de forma similar al reborde de cada base (2,3), es decir, solapando y doblando los bordes de cada pieza. Así, la base superior (3) está realizada en dos piezas, una en forma de corona circular (31) entre la pared (1) y el reborde (6) y otra circular o tapa (32) en la que se define la abertura (figura 3). La corona circular puede estar realizada en un material diferente del interior del reborde (6), el cual requiere un material más cuidadosamente seleccionado. Es decir, el material de la corona circular A rim (6) is arranged around the tongue (4) which serves both to increase the mechanical resistance and to act as a pouring edge, so that the groove of the upper base (3) does not come into contact with the liquid. The part of the upper base (3) inside the rim (6) is preferably flat. This flange can be made in a similar way to the flange of each base (2,3), that is, overlapping and folding the edges of each piece. Thus, the upper base (3) is made in two pieces, one in the shape of a circular crown (31) between the wall (1) and the rim (6) and another circular or cover (32) in which the opening is defined. (figure 3). The circular crown may be made of a different material than the interior of the rim (6), which requires a more carefully selected material. That is, the material of the circular crown

Como se aprecia en las figuras, la pared (1) no es cilindrica, sino que tiene un cuello (11) que reduce su diámetro en la zona próxima a la base superior (3). Este cuello (11) se realiza mediante rodillos antes de generar la lata. As can be seen in the figures, the wall (1) is not cylindrical, but has a neck (11) that reduces its diameter in the area close to the upper base (3). This neck (11) is made using rollers before generating the can.

Para abrir la lata, se levanta la anilla (5), por el lado opuesto a su fijación a la lengüeta (4), lo cual permite que se ventile la lata. Posteriormente, se tira de la anilla (5) y se rompe la lengüeta (4) por su perímetro mediante una línea de fractura o debilidad. La lengüeta (4) y la anilla (5) se pueden colocar al otro lado del reborde (6). A partir de este momento se puede dispensar el líquido, que nunca estará en contacto con el exterior de la lata y no puede contaminarse. Se evita especialmente las impurezas acumuladas en la unión de la base superior (3) y la pared (1). To open the can, the ring (5) is lifted, on the side opposite to its attachment to the tab (4), which allows the can to be ventilated. Subsequently, the ring (5) is pulled and the tongue (4) is broken along its perimeter using a line of fracture or weakness. The tab (4) and the ring (5) can be placed on the other side of the flange (6). From this moment the liquid can be dispensed, which will never be in contact with the outside of the can and cannot become contaminated. Impurities accumulated at the junction of the upper base (3) and the wall (1) are especially avoided.

Además, gracias a la definición de la corona circular (31) y la tapa (32), es posible usar materiales diferentes en cada parte, reduciendo el material de altas prestaciones únicamente a la tapa (32). Por ejemplo, cuando se utiliza aluminio de la serie 5XXX en la tapa (32) y aluminio de la serie 3XXX para el resto Furthermore, thanks to the definition of the circular crown (31) and the cover (32), it is possible to use different materials in each part, reducing the high-performance material only to the cover (32). For example, when 5XXX series aluminum is used in the cover (32) and 3XXX series aluminum for the rest

Es posible ejercer la fuerza necesaria para abrir la tapa (32) mediante la anilla (5) con un único movimiento y con una sola mano. It is possible to exert the necessary force to open the lid (32) using the ring (5) with a single movement and with a single hand.
