Benefits of technology

[0006]The main objective of the invention is to provide a container that is easily collapsible. The container has a body constructed by a front panel, a rear panel, a top panel, two side panels and a bottom panel. An opening is defined in the top panel and is closed by a cap. Each one of the front, rear and top panels has a thickness large

Problems solved by technology

However, the Tetra Pak packages are difficult for recycling because a Tetra Pak package comprises multiple layers of aluminum films, papers and plastic films.
However, some parts of the conventional Tetra Pak package are bent and connected by glue or adhesive, to tear of the conventional package is difficult and time-consuming.

second embodiment

[0022]The top panel (50,50A) has an opening defined through the top panel (50,50A) and communicating with the chamber. The opening is provided with a cap (65,80) to close the opening. With reference to FIG. 5, the opening is defined through the top of the top panel (50,50A) and may be defined at a position lower than a topmost position of the curved top panel (50). In a second embodiment as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the opening is defined the topmost position of the curved top panel (50A).

first embodiment

[0023]In the first embodiment, with reference to FIG. 5, a nozzle (60) is attached to the top panel (50) to close the opening in the top panel (50) and is provided with the cap (65). The nozzle (60) communicates with the chamber in the body and has an outer thread (62) formed around a free end of the nozzle (60). The cap (65) is attached to the nozzle (60) and has an inner thread screwed with the outer thread (62) on the free end of the nozzle (60). The nozzle (60) may be extendable to a position where the free end of the nozzle (60) is higher than the topmost position of the curved top panel (50). Consequently, the chamber of the body can be filled with beverage as full as possible to improve the use of the container.

[0024]In the second embodiment, the cap (80) is attached directly to the opening in the top panel (50A) to close the opening.

[0025]The bottom panel (20,20A) may be implemented by two plastic films connected with each other and has a bottom reinforced rib (75,75A). The ...

Abstract

A container has a body constructed by a front panel, a rear panel, a top panel, two side panels and a bottom panel. An opening is defined in the top panel and is closed by a cap. Each one of the front, rear and top panels has a thickness larger than that of each one of the side and bottom panels. The top panel has a top folding groove defined in the top panel along a direction perpendicular to the side panels. The bottom panel has a bottom reinforced rib having a bottom folding groove defined in the bottom reinforced rib and parallel with the top folding groove in the top panel. Accordingly, the container that is easily collapsible and recycled.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a container, and more particularly to a collapsible and disposable container for beverages or the like.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]Tetra Pak packages is widely used containers for beverages or food. However, the Tetra Pak packages are difficult for recycling because a Tetra Pak package comprises multiple layers of aluminum films, papers and plastic films. In addition, a conventional Tetra Pak package has to be torn off before being folded for reducing spaces for recycling or reclaiming process. However, some parts of the conventional Tetra Pak package are bent and connected by glue or adhesive, to tear of the conventional package is difficult and time-consuming.[0005]To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention tends to provide a container to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0006]The main objective of the invention is to provide...
