Benefits of technology

[0009] In order to present a discardable hygienic device with characteristics different from the ones presented in the state of art so far of undermost cost, high scale of production, and easy to use by consumer, the applicant herein developed a discardable device using it as labial mouthpiece to be fitted in the aluminum cans opening pourer ready-to-drink, such device was developed from a plastic panel, preferably atoxic PVC, discardable and recyclable especially developed in accordance with ideal dimension

Problems solved by technology

Normally, the cans are stored with low hygiene conditions, letting the cans subjected to contaminations from a variety of animals and insects, once they deposit residues, where they pass by, which become fungus and bacteria and for many times remains in the can surface.

Abstract

A discardable hygiene device used as hygienic element for ready-to-drink beverage that are packed in aluminum cans (L) including a labial mouthpiece hygienic device (1) made from a plastic material panel, that has a half-moon shape or similar, being able to compose support edges (2) interweaved by the internal arched (3) in suitable ratio. An external side (4) has ideal conformation and dimension that allows the device to be fitted in a plan way on the cover (T) of the can (L). The hygienic device (1) has a bottom face, more particularly in the bottom contour on the arched side (3) which is folded in the shape of a grab (5), where the thickness (x) is dimensioned due to the thickness of the cover (T) opening pourer (V) border. The hygienic device (1) is packed in a protection capsule (6), thermo sealed, making a kit that is supplied together with the can (L). The device incorporates a labial mouthpiece element for liquid outflow inside the can ensuring that a user does not to touch his/her lips on the can cover.
