Abstract
Description
[0001] This invention refers to cardboard boxes specially designed to internally hold bags with an outlet spout for a tap and a hole for wall mounting.
[0002] The cardboard boxes for packing bags, that contain beverages and other household liquids equipped with a tap for easy dispensing are well known.
[0003] The rigid cardboard boxes are used to hold bags made of plastic membrane, with an attached tap for dispensing liquids. The use of these bags ensures the protection of the liquids from environmental contamination, to remain safe and unaltered for long periods of time. The rigid cardboard boxes store and protect the bags from damage during transport and use due to the sensitivity of their construction materials.
[0004] The cardboard boxes in circulation we know are mainly used to hold bags containing alcoholic beverages or soft drinks. These are placed on cabinets, tables, or special bases to facilitate the dispensing of liquids.
[0005] According to the present invention the proposed cardboard boxes are characterised by the holes they have for wall mounting, in addition to their placement on cabinets, tables or special bases. They also have an inner flap to prevent contamination that can be caused by contact of bags with hands during wall mounting or transport.
[0006] The cardboard boxes according to the present invention are constructed by a cardboard sheet which has already cut, and bent parts and all required parts glued, so when desired you can create the box in which you will place the filled with liquid bag along with the adjusted tap.
[0007] The invention is described below with the help of an example and with reference to the attached drawings, in which:
[0008] FIG. 1 illustrates the front perspective of the box.
