AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Packaged drinks like bottled and canned beverages become difficult to consume at room temperature during hot summer days or in situations where refrigeration is unavailable, such as power outages or evacuation sites without refrigerators.

Method used

A containerized beverage cover with a water-absorbent sponge body, like polyurethane foam, that absorbs and evaporates water to remove heat from the beverage as latent heat of vaporization, using a fitting mechanism to attach to various container shapes.

Benefits of technology

Facilitates easier consumption of warm beverages by reducing their temperature, ensuring safe and easy handling for all ages, including the elderly and children, even without a refrigerator.

Abstract

To provide a cover for a packaged beverage which has an effect of removing heat from the packaged beverage and making it easier to drink by bringing the packaged beverage into close contact with a contact part. [Solution] The main body 1 is an absorbent spongy body made of an appropriate material such as polyurethane foam, and is provided with a hollow-molded fitting part 2 that can be inserted into and fitted with a fitting means for fitting a packaged beverage 3, such as a PET bottled beverage or a canned beverage. By inserting the packaged beverage 3 into the fitting part 2 and fitting it with the fitting means, heat is removed from the packaged beverage 3 as heat of vaporization when the water absorbed into the main body 1 evaporates. This can have the effect of making the packaged beverage 3 easier to drink when a refrigerator cannot be used, such as in the event of a power outage during a disaster or when there is no refrigerator at an evacuation site, making it particularly easy to drink during the hot midsummer day.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to a containerized beverage cover that absorbs heat as latent heat of vaporization by being attached to a containerized beverage such as a PET bottled beverage or a canned beverage. [Background technology]

[0002] Traditionally, packaged drinks such as bottled drinks and canned drinks have been chilled by placing them in the refrigerator before drinking.

[0003] A refrigerator is essential, especially during the hot summer days. [Patent documents] [Non-patent literature] Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] If there is a power outage during a disaster or if there is no refrigerator at an evacuation site, the refrigerator will not be usable, so packaged drinks such as bottled drinks and canned drinks cannot be cooled and will have to be consumed at room temperature.

[0005] Especially during the hot summer days, when temperatures are high, people have to drink bottled or canned drinks, which are warm and difficult to drink.

[0006] To provide a cover for containerized beverages that can make containerized beverages such as PET bottled beverages and canned beverages easier to drink by removing heat as heat of vaporization even when the beverages cannot be cooled in a refrigerator. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The device is provided with a hollow, water-absorbent sponge body made of an appropriate material such as polyurethane foam, and a fitting part that can be fitted with a fitting means to fit a containerized beverage such as a PET bottled beverage or a canned beverage.

[0008] A containerized drink such as a drink in a PET bottle or a drink in a can is inserted into the contact part and tightly contacted by a contact means, and when the water absorbed in the main body evaporates, heat is taken from the containerized drink such as a drink in a PET bottle or a drink in a can as heat of vaporization. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] To provide an effect of contributing to making it easier to drink bottled drinks, canned drinks, and other containerized drinks at room temperature even when a refrigerator cannot be used, such as in the case of a power outage during a disaster or when there is no refrigerator at an evacuation site.

[0010] This has the effect of making packaged beverages such as bottled beverages and canned beverages that are too warm to drink, especially during the hot midday hours of summer, when temperatures are high, easier to drink.

[0011] Furthermore, since it is made of a water-absorbent spongy material made of an appropriate material such as polyurethane foam, it can be attached and detached to containers of various shapes without the risk of accidents or injuries, and can be handled safely and easily by the elderly and children. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] The best mode of carrying out the container-packed beverage cover of the present invention will be specifically described below based on the examples shown in the drawings, but the procedure and purpose of use are not particularly limited.

[0013] Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing one embodiment of the present invention. The absorbent spongy body 1 is made of an appropriate material such as polyurethane foam, and is provided with a hollow molded fitting part 2 into which a container-packed beverage 3, such as a PET bottled beverage or a canned beverage, can be inserted and fitted by a fitting means.

[0014] A containerized drink 3 such as a drink in a PET bottle or a drink in a can is inserted into the contact part 2 and brought into close contact by a contact means, and when the water absorbed in the main body 1 evaporates, heat is taken from the containerized drink 3 such as a drink in a PET bottle or a drink in a can as heat of vaporization.

[0015] Even when a refrigerator cannot be used due to a power outage caused by a disaster or when there is no refrigerator at an evacuation site, the effect of contributing to making bottled drinks 3 such as canned drinks and other drinks at room temperature easier to drink is produced.

[0016] This has the effect of making packaged beverages 3 such as bottled beverages and canned beverages that are warm and difficult to drink, especially during the hot summer days.

[0017] Furthermore, since it is made of a water-absorbent spongy material made of an appropriate material such as polyurethane foam, it can be attached and detached to containers of various shapes without the risk of accidents or injuries, and can be handled safely and easily by the elderly and children.

Claims

[Claim 1] The containerized beverage cover is a water-absorbent spongy body having a contact part that can be brought into contact with the containerized beverage by a contact means, and is characterized in that by bringing the containerized beverage and the contact part into close contact with each other by the contact means, heat from the containerized beverage is taken away as heat of vaporization when the absorbed water evaporates.
