Benefits of technology

[0001]The idea consists of the manufacture of a bottle, large bottle or large can and / or any other kind of bellows-shaped container. Through this shape, the loss of pressure in the gas fluid contained is compensated, reducing or eliminating the air chamber that is formed as it is consumed.

Problems solved by technology

Within the scope of practical application of the invention, for bottle-type containers obtained from recyclable materials, a wide variety of bottles of this type are known, structured according to very different design lines, having as a fundamental problem the fact that once its content is consumed, they have a high volumetric occupation, which makes recycling them expensive, because it is necessary to have a considerably large space to accommodate said containers.
In an attempt to avoid these problems, is known the inclusion in this type of bottles of a series of perimeter indentations with irregular configuration that allow to carry out the crushing of the container, once its content has been consumed, which maneuver is not easy for elderly people or that have little strength.

Embodiment Construction

[0006]The Variable-volume bellows bottle container proposed by the invention solves in a fully satisfactory manner the problems previously exposed in all and each of the discussed aspects. It also provides other benefits to the environment.

[0007]For this, and more concretely, the preconized bottle will be obtained from PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate), PVC and / or any other product from the plastics industry, from petroleum derivatives or from degradable sugars and / or bellows-type deformed metal or feasible alloy, as well as combinations of metals and plastics in adhesion or not.

[0008]Shape of the container

[0009]Cylindrical, conical triangular or any polygonal form in the cubic system and / or cylindrical polygonal in the cubic system of curved or angled edge.

[0010]System

[0011]Symmetric bellows, symmetric or asymmetric flake, spiral bellows and / or any other kind of bellows that meets the specifications for the use which is determined.

[0012]Shape of the planes of the bellows

[0013]Circul...

Abstract

The invention relates to a variable-volume bottle made from PET and having an elastically deformable and plastic-deformation-resistant bellows structure, which allows the volume of the bottle to be adjusted according to the degree to which the peripheral annular folds are folded. The invention comprises one or more sectors without peripheral annular folds, intended for identification labels.

Description

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION[0001]The idea consists of the manufacture of a bottle, large bottle or large can and / or any other kind of bellows-shaped container. Through this shape, the loss of pressure in the gas fluid contained is compensated, reducing or eliminating the air chamber that is formed as it is consumed.[0002]It is also the object of the invention that the bellows-shaped container adjusts during content consumption to the volume of the remaining liquid in order to avoid that there is a volume of air within the same which could affect the organoleptic characteristics of the contained product.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Within the scope of practical application of the invention, for bottle-type containers obtained from recyclable materials, a wide variety of bottles of this type are known, structured according to very different design lines, having as a fundamental problem the fact that once its content is consumed, they have a high volumetric occupation, which makes recy...
