Description

Envase auto-refrigerante.Self-cooling container.

Object of the invention

El presente Modelo de Utilidad se refiere tal como indica el enunciado a un envase auto-refrigerante que aporta a la función que se destina, varias ventajas que se consignarán más adelante, aparte de otras inherentes a su organización y constitución.This Utility Model refers to such as stated in a package statement self-cooling that contributes to the function that destin, several advantages that will be reported later, apart from others inherent to its organization and constitution.

Más concretamente, la invención consiste en un envase especialmente destinado a contener bebidas liquidas o alimentos sólidos para consumo humano, que incorpora un depósito portador de un fluido capaz, mediante el accionamiento de una válvula en el momento de su consumo, de reaccionar expandiéndose y provocar el enfriamiento del contenido de dicho envase para su consumo en condiciones óptimas de temperatura.More specifically, the invention consists of a container specially designed to contain liquid beverages or solid food for human consumption, which incorporates a deposit carrier of a capable fluid, by actuating a valve at the time of consumption, react by expanding and cause the cooling of the contents of said container for consumption in optimal temperature conditions.

Background of the invention

Existen muchos alimentos tanto sólidos como líquidos cuyo consumo, para una correcta degustación de los mismos, debe realizarse a baja temperatura.There are many foods both solid and liquids whose consumption, for a correct tasting of them, It must be done at low temperature.

En condiciones normales, dichos alimentos o bebidas se introducen en un frigorífico con la suficiente antelación para que en el momento de su consumo hayan alcanzado la temperatura deseada.Under normal conditions, such foods or drinks are put in a refrigerator with enough in advance so that at the time of consumption they have reached the desired temperature

El problema se plantea cuando, por el motivo que sea, no es posible dicho enfriamiento previo y no queda otra alternativa que el consumo de dichos productos a temperatura ambiente, perdiendo por tanto parte de sus características.The problem arises when, for the reason that that is, this prior cooling is not possible and there is no other alternative than the consumption of these products at temperature environment, thus losing part of its characteristics.

En orden a solventar dicha problemática, la invención propugna un envase auto refrigerante, del cual cabe señalar, que el peticionario desconoce la existencia de cualquier otro que presente unas características técnicas, estructurales y constitutivas semejantes.In order to solve this problem, the invention advocates a self-cooling container, which fits point out that the petitioner is unaware of the existence of any other that presents technical, structural and similar constitutive.

Explanation of the invention.

Con la presente invención se ha ideado, tal como se ha mencionado anteriormente, un envase especialmente destinado a contener bebidas liquidas o alimentos sólidos para consumo humano, que incorpora un depósito portador de un fluido capaz, mediante el accionamiento de una válvula, de reaccionar expandiéndose y provocando el enfriamiento o refrigeración del líquido o sólido contenido en dicho envase.With the present invention it has been devised, as mentioned above, a container specially intended for contain liquid drinks or solid foods for human consumption, which incorporates a reservoir carrying a capable fluid, by means of the actuating a valve, reacting by expanding and causing the cooling or cooling of the liquid or solid contained in said container.

De forma más concreta, el envase de la invención, que puede estar realizado en cualquier material adecuado y adoptar cualquiera de las formas de los envases conocidos y convencionales tales como latas, tetrabrik, plástico, etc., presenta en su interior una cavidad o depósito estanco portador de un fluido refrigerante frigorífico no tóxico tal como el oxígeno líquido o similar.More specifically, the package of the invention, which can be made in any suitable material and adopt any of the forms of known and conventional packages such as cans, tetrabrik, plastic, etc., presents in your inside a sealed cavity or reservoir carrying a fluid non-toxic refrigerant refrigerant such as liquid oxygen or Similary.

El referido depósito ocupa dentro del envase un espacio lo más alargado posible, en orden a procurar el mayor recorrido posible en la expansión del fluido refrigerante de modo que la acción refrigerante se prolongue durante el mayor tiempo posible, encontrándose en contacto con cualquiera de las paredes exteriores del envase (tapa, base o lateral) donde se ubicará una válvula o lengüeta de accionamiento.The aforementioned deposit occupies within the container a space as elongated as possible, in order to ensure the greatest possible path in the expansion of the cooling fluid so that the cooling action be prolonged for the longest time possible, being in contact with any of the walls outside of the container (lid, base or side) where a valve or actuation tab.

En consecuencia, al accionar dicha válvula o lengüeta, se produce una acción reacción expansionándose el fluido que actúa como medio refrigerante del producto, dejándolo preparado al instante para su consumo a una temperatura ideal.Consequently, when said valve is operated or tongue, a reaction action occurs by expanding the fluid which acts as a cooling medium for the product, leaving it prepared Instantly for consumption at an ideal temperature.

Opcionalmente, la invención prevé la incorporación en el interior del depósito, juntamente con el fluido refrigerante, de una sustancia colorante, la cual, al ser accionada la válvula y producirse la expansión del fluido y su consecuente expulsión al exterior, provoque un llamativo y original efecto de spray o pulverización coloreada.Optionally, the invention provides for incorporation inside the tank, together with the fluid refrigerant, of a coloring substance, which, when activated the valve and the expansion of the fluid and its consequent occur expulsion abroad, cause a striking and original effect of spray or colored spray.

El nuevo envase auto-refrigerante representa, por consiguiente, una estructura innovadora de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para tal fin, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, le dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita.The new self-cooling container represents, therefore, an innovative structure of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown up to now for this purpose, reasons that together with its practical utility, will provide sufficient grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity requested.
