Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a single use container for liquid, semi-liquid, powdered or similar products.
  • said containers are normally made using cardboard materials, coated on the inside with a film of polymer to render them unchangeable when in contact with the contained product, or using plastic materials; both the containers made using the former materials and those made using the latter materials indicated above also have, for the most part, an outer coating, generally glued on, of a sheet of paper material or of a polymer film, to protect them from harmful agents and to enable it to carry inscriptions suitable to define the product they contain, promotional messages, and various representations for giving an improved aesthetic appearance.
  • a drawback associated with the conventional containers formed as described above derives from the fact that, as it is not possible to separate the material of the real container from the one of the coating, both internal and external, the complex cannot be re-cycled after use, as the component materials are of nature different from one another.
  • the object of the present invention is to obviate the above mentioned drawback by providing a container of the type in reference, formed by two hollow bodies, of different materials, inserted one inside the other and fixed in such a way as to be easily separable, so as to distinguish said materials and render the recovery and re-cycling operation of the single constituent raw materials extremely simple.
  • the container according to the invention is shown, formed by a first and a second complementary hollow bodies, of which an external one designated with 1, and an internal one designated with 2, partially inserted one inside the other in said figure, said two hollow bodies 1 and 2 being made of different materials, for example the external one of cardboard and the internal one of plastic.
  • the hollow bodies 1 and 2 both of an overturned truncated cone shape in the present embodiment example, are provided with respective bottoms 3 and 4, of which that of the internal hollow body 2 has, in a central position, a circular depression 5, and are open at the top.
  • the internal hollow body 2 has the lower end portion 6 with a taper reversed with respect to the remaining part of the hollow body itself, to prevent the two hollow bodies 1 and 2 from becoming locked together when fully inserted into one another to form the container in reference, said internal hollow body 2 also being provided with a circumferential flange 7 extending outwards from the edge of its top opening.
  • the bottom of the external hollow body 1 has the central part cut in the shape of a concentric circle, so as to form a disk 8 integral with the remaining part in two diametrically opposite points A, B, so that it can be removed easily, the diameter of said disk 8 being approximately equal to the diameter of the circular depression 5 on the bottom of the internal hollow body 2.
  • the internal hollow body 2 is inserted into the external hollow body 1, after filling the depression 5 on the bottom of the former with a suitable adhesive agent, until the flange 7 on the former rests on the edge of the top opening of the latter, and until the external surface of the bottom 4 of the former fits onto the internal surface of the bottom 3 of the latter, in which position they are temporarily fixed by adhesion of the depression 5 to the disk 8.
  • the depression 5 on the bottom of the internal body 2 could be eliminated by forming said bottom with a flat surface the central part of which would be spread with adhesive agent for fixing to the disk 8 on the bottom of the external hollow body 1 during assembly to form the container in reference.
  • the container according to the invention is defined as having the shape of a truncated cone, it is obvious that it can have any other form that foresees a cross-section other than circular, for example square, rectangular, triangular, etc., with the peripheral walls of said external and internal hollow bodies inclined in such a way as to allow insertion of the latter into the former in the manner described above.
  • the present invention is therefore not limited to the embodiment example described above, but comprises any embodiment variant thereof.
