Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an instantaneous cooling system for containers of liquids.
  • the invention concerns a system of the kind that can be directly applied on a single beverage container, to be preferably consumed cold.
  • cooling of beverages to be consumed cold occurs storing beverages within the relevant containers within a controlled temperature environment, and maintaining the same under these conditions up to the consume, or just before.
  • thermal containers minimises the heat exchange with the environment, but cannot prevent the same. After a more or less long period, temperature of the beverage to be kept cold unavoidably increases. Furthermore, often said containers are very bulky.
  • a second kind of problems connected with the freezers employed for cooling and maintaining the temperature is that it is necessary to cool and maintain cool the beverages for long periods, even if they could be cooled just before their consume. In fact, hardly ever, this kind of products needs to be maintained cold, e.g. to preserve their hygienic or organoleptic properties.
  • freezers normally used have rather low cooling time, due to the fact that the means by which they transfer the cold to the contents is air, said air having a very low thermal exchange coefficient.
  • the problem that the present invention aims to solve is the possibility of cooling a beverage contained within a can or similar container only when said cooling is really necessary.
  • the solution according to the invention is particularly advantageous mainly because is a system that allows to avoid useless wastes of electric power to maintain cold the beverage, when this feature is not necessary. Further, the solution according to the invention prevents that a beverage cooled and then maintained within a thermal container can in any case not be to a suitable temperature, as a consequence of the fact that after a rather long storing, some heating is practically unavoidable.
  • the invention further proposes an instantaneous cooling system for containers of liquid, comprised of an envelope, within which the same container can be introduced, provided with an air interspace suitable to contain at least two chemical components able to react and generate cool when required.
  • an instantaneous cooling system for containers of liquid, comprised of an envelope, within which the same container can be introduced, provided with an air interspace suitable to contain at least two chemical components able to react and generate cool when required.
  • Said interspace can further be emptied from the reaction products, to replace them with new reacting compounds.
  • an instantaneous cooling system for containers of liquids comprising closed containment means, applied on the container, creating a interspace for housing at least two chemical compounds, maintained separated by separation means that can be eliminated by mechanical action or by breaking means, said compounds endo-thermally reacting and consequently cooling, thus subtracting heat from the liquid contained within the container.
  • the invention further relates to an instantaneous cooling system for containers of liquids, comprised of an envelope made up of a material substantially having a shape for the introduction of the container, said envelope comprising an interspace for the introduction, the housing and/or the replacement of a combination of at least two chemical compounds, said compounds being kept separated by separation means that can be eliminated by mechanical action or by breaking means, said compounds endo-thermally reacting and consequently cooling, thus subtracting heat from the liquid contained within the container.

  • a first chemical compound reagent is inserted inside the interspace 3 .
  • a second reagent is contained within a bag 4, placed within the same interspace. Said bag 4 physically separates the two reagents, that can be in contact only as a consequence of a breaking of the same.
  • a fracture element 5 is provided on the surface of the skirt 2 and in correspondence of the same bag, said fracture element being comprised of flexible material, by which it is possible to exert a pressure on the bag 4, said action breaking the same bag.
  • the system shown in the figure is applied on a bottle 6. Particularly, in figure 7, the bag 4 and the fracture element 5 are shown, in such a way to make it possible to observe the correspondence between the first and the second one.

  • Bag 12 could also be contained within a replacement cartridge (not shown), along with the compound reacting with the compound contained within the bag. The breaking of the bag 12 causes the outflow of its contents, reacting with the compound present within the interspace.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de refroidissement instantané pour contenants (1) de liquides, dont la particularité est qu'il comprend un moyen de retenue fermé (2), disposé sur le contenant, créant un espace (3) pouvant renfermer au moins deux composés chimiques, maintenus séparés par un système de séparation (4) qui peut être éliminé par action mécanique ou à l'aide d'un système de rupture (5), lesdits composés faisant l'objet d'une réaction endothermique permettant de refroidir par absorption de chaleur le liquide contenu dans le contenant.
