Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a container structure and a manufacturing method thereof, in particular to a fully recyclable modular container and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the most widely used beverage containers on the market are plastic bottles (also known as PET bottles). Traditional plastic bottles are primarily made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Due to the large-scale production and use of PET bottles worldwide, and their non-biodegradability, the issue of how to deal with PET bottle waste has become a major environmental issue facing all countries.

[0003] To address the environmental issues caused by plastic bottles, containers made from biodegradable, environmentally friendly materials have been proposed and put into mass production. For example, manufacturers in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Denmark have introduced paper-based PET bottles, manufactured entirely using one-piece molding technology. While these PET bottles, made entirely from paper and molded entirely using one-piece molding, offer the advantages of ease and speed of production, they lack structural strength and pressure resistance, making them unsuitable for use as soda bottles or for other pressurized beverages or liquids, such as sparkling water.

[0004] To address these issues, the applicant has proposed, in its approved invention patent application in Taiwan (Certificate No. I766398) and EUIPO (EUIPO) (EP3988465B1), a liquid container made entirely of natural plant materials, comprising a cap, an upper body, a body, and a base. This liquid container, constructed from natural plant materials, possesses excellent structural strength, can withstand radial and lateral pressure, and is naturally or biodegradable, resolving the environmental challenges associated with traditional plastic bottles.

[0005] Currently, natural material containers (e.g., paper bottles) need to meet the following requirements to meet increasingly stringent environmental regulations and industry demands. The requirements are prioritized as follows:

[0006] (1) All components can be recycled and reused;

[0007] (2) Made from bio-based raw materials; and

[0051] The positional relationships described in the following embodiments include up, down, left, and right. Unless otherwise specified, they are based on the directions of the components shown in the drawings.

[0052] First see Figure 1 , is a structural diagram of an embodiment of the fully recyclable modular container of the present application. An embodiment of the fully recyclable modular container of the present application comprises: a bottle cap 10, a bottle shoulder 20, a bottle body 30, a bottle bottom 40 and an inner liner 50 (see Figure 2 ).

[0053] A preferred embodiment of the method for manufacturing the fully recyclable modular container of the present application includes the following steps:

[0054] S1. Use spiral paper tube to make bottle body 30;

[0055] S2. Using biodegradable plastics in a blow mold M to produce a liner 50 by blow molding process (see Figure 4 ), an opening 51 is formed at the top of the inner container;

[0056] S3 using biodegradable plastics by injection molding technology to produce a bottle cap 10, a bottle shoulder 20 and a bottle bottom 40;

[0057] S4. Assemble the bottle shoulder 20, the bottle body 30 and the bottle bottom 40 into the outer shell structure of the container, and detachably assemble the inner liner 50 inside the outer shell structure.

[0058] In a preferred embodiment, the bottle cap 10, bottle shoulder 20, and bottle base 40 are made of polybutylene succinate (PBS) through injection molding technology. The spiral paper tube making up the bottle body 30 is made by winding waterproof paper with a polybutylene succinate (PBS) coating on the inside. The waterproof paper can be made of natural plant materials (such as pure pulp) and then coated with PBS on one side to achieve the goal of recyclability. Preferably, at least two layers of waterproof paper are used to make the spiral paper tube, and more preferably, a spiral paper tube with a three-layer staggered overlapping structure. The bottle body 30 made of the spiral paper tube has internal and external pressure resistance that exceeds that of plastic bottles and is almost as strong as or even stronger than a glass bottle.

[0059] The top of the bottle shoulder 20 has a bottle mouth 21 that can be connected to the bottle cap 10, and the bottle shoulder 20 extends toward the bottom end to have a connecting portion 22 that can be inserted into the top of the bottle body 30. The top of the bottle body 30 and the connecting portion 22 of the bottle shoulder 20 have a first snap-fit structure (see below for details), and the bottle shoulder 20 and the bottle body 30 are detachably combined together through the first snap-fit structure.

[0060] See also Figure 2 The bottle bottom 40 includes a bottom surface 41 and a side wall 42 surrounding the bottom surface 41. The side wall 42 can be inserted into the bottom end of the bottle body 30. The bottom end of the bottle body 30 and the side wall 42 have a second snap-fit structure (see below for details). The bottle body 30 and the bottle bottom 40 are detachably combined together through the second snap-fit structure. The bottle shoulder 20, the bottle body 30 and the bottle bottom 40 are combined into the outer shell structure of the container through the above-mentioned first snap-fit structure and the second snap-fit structure. Then, a biodegradable plastic is used to form an inner liner 50 inside the outer shell structure through a blow molding process, and an opening 51 is formed at the top of the inner liner 50. Liquid or objects can be injected into the container through this opening 51 for storage.

[0061] See also Figure 4 The inner liner 50 is made of a biodegradable plastic material. In a preferred embodiment, the inner liner 50 is made of any one of the bio-based polyester materials polyethylene furanoate (PEF) and polybutylene succinate (PBS). The inner liner 50 is blow-molded. The inner liner 50 is pre-molded in a blow mold M by a blow molding process. The shape of the mold cavity inside the blow mold M is consistent with the shell structure. Figure 4 As shown, during the blow molding process, the material gradually expands until it becomes an inner liner 50 that is consistent with the internal shape of the outer shell structure. The inner liner 50 can achieve gas and water barrier properties comparable to those of traditional plastic bottles. Since PBS material is used and the inner liner 50 is made by blow molding, the wall thickness of the inner liner 50 can be made thinner.

[0062] Preferably, the bottle cap 10 and the bottle shoulder 20 are detachably connected via a threaded structure. Figure 2 As shown, the bottle shoulder 20 has an external thread 23 near the bottle mouth 21, and the inner side of the bottle cap 10 has an internal thread 11. The bottle cap 10 can be screwed together with the external thread 23 of the bottle shoulder 20 via the internal thread 11. Preferably, the edge of the opening 21 at the top of the inner liner 50 has an annular skirt 52 extending outward in the radial direction. After the bottle cap 10 is connected to the bottle mouth 21, the annular skirt 52 is interposed between the bottle cap 10 and the bottle mouth 21, thereby forming a seal between the bottle cap 10 and the bottle mouth 21, and effectively preventing liquid leakage in the container.

[0063] See also Figure 2 , which shows a structural exploded view of the first embodiment of the fully recyclable modular container of the present application; in the first embodiment, the bottle shoulder 20, the bottle body 30 and the bottle bottom 40 are detachably combined to form the outer shell structure of the container through a threaded structure; preferably, the first snap-fitting structure includes: a first thread 31 arranged at the top end of the bottle body 30, and a second thread 24 arranged at the connecting portion 22 of the bottle shoulder 20, the first thread 31 and the second thread 24 can be screwed together, so that the bottle shoulder 20 and the bottle body 30 can be detachably combined; the second snap-fitting structure includes: a third thread 32 arranged at the bottom end of the bottle body 30, and a fourth thread 43 arranged on the side wall 42 of the bottle bottom 40, the third thread 32 and the fourth thread 43 can be screwed together, so that the bottle body 30 and the bottle bottom 40 can be detachably combined.

[0064] See also Figure 3, which shows a structural exploded view of the second embodiment of the fully recyclable modular container of the present application; in the second embodiment, the bottle shoulder 20, the bottle body 30 and the bottle bottom 40 are detachably combined into the outer shell structure of the container through a snap-fit structure and rotation; preferably, the first snap-fit structure includes: a first snap-fit groove 34 arranged at the top end of the bottle body 30, and a first snap-fit 25 arranged at the connecting portion 22 of the bottle shoulder 20, the first snap-fit groove 34 being able to rotatably engage with or disengage from the first snap-fit 25, so that the bottle shoulder 20 and the bottle body 30 can be detachably combined; the second snap-fit structure includes: a second snap-fit groove 33 arranged at the bottom end of the bottle body 30, and a second snap-fit 44 arranged on the side wall 42 of the bottle bottom 40, the second snap-fit groove 33 being able to rotatably engage with or disengage from the second snap-fit 44, so that the bottle body 30 and the bottle bottom 40 can be detachably combined.

[0065] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 As a preferred embodiment of the fully recyclable combined container of the present application, the bottle shoulder 20 includes a left bottle shoulder 20L and a right bottle shoulder 20R that can be combined with each other. The left bottle shoulder 20L and the right bottle shoulder 20R can be manufactured separately by injection molding technology. The side wall edge of the left bottle shoulder 20L has a left engaging groove 26L extending toward the right bottle shoulder 20R, and the left engaging groove 26L can be engaged with a right engaging groove 27R corresponding to the side wall of the right bottle shoulder 20R. The side wall edge of the right bottle shoulder 20R has a right engaging groove 26R extending toward the left bottle shoulder 20L, and the right engaging groove 26R can be engaged with a left engaging groove 27L corresponding to the side wall of the left bottle shoulder 20L. This structure of the bottle shoulder 20 composed of the left bottle shoulder 20L and the right bottle shoulder 20R can be disassembled during the recycling operation, and then the inner liner 50 can be easily removed, thereby achieving the goal of complete disassembly and recycling of each component.

[0066] Through the above-mentioned embodiments, it can be understood that the fully recyclable modular container and the manufacturing method thereof of the present application, during the entire container manufacturing process, all components of the container are combined by means of a snap-fit structure, threads and rotation, without using any glue, and are easy to assemble.
