    DESCRIPTION

    Packaging accessory that incorporates a disposable utensil.

    OBJECT OF THE INVENTION 5

    The purpose of the present invention application is the registration of an accessory for packaging provided with a disposable utensil that incorporates notable innovations and advantages over the current technique.
     10
    More specifically, the invention proposes the development of a packaging accessory that incorporates a telescopic disposable utensil, in particular to be mounted in containers intended to store especially a food product or the like, whether in liquid, powder, bulk or a combination of these, such as a soup, powdered milk, baby food, a meal with multiple precooked ingredients, etc. fifteen

    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

    At present, previously cooked or prepared foods that are stored in individual containers provided with a lid 20 or top plastic film can be found in stores and supermarkets. Such containers may have a plastic material cover in the region of the lid or film that allows the user to manipulate the contents of the interior of the container without the need to previously have a cover or the like. Usually, these cutlery are made up of a single piece, or two pieces joined together through a hinged or previously separated portion and which can be coupled by means of a tongue and groove socket. This cover is loose because a fixing system has not been provided, so it can move through the area in which it is stored.

    A drawback presented by this arrangement is that due to the dimensions of the cutlery, and in particular its total length, the depth of the package is limited taking into account the length of the cutlery, so in a way the size range of the Packaging intended to include a cutlery is limited by this aspect.

    In addition, the applicant is not currently aware of an invention that has all the features described herein, and in particular as regards an accessory that can be optionally coupled in a package, without the need of the manufacturer modifying the package.

    DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
     40
    The present invention has been developed in order to provide an accessory for packaging that is configured as a novelty within the field of application and resolves the aforementioned drawbacks, also providing other additional advantages that will be apparent from the description that is accompanies next.
     Four. Five
    It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an accessory for containers, in particular to be mounted in packages intended to store a food product, and which is characterized by the fact that it comprises a ring of any appropriate geometry or dimension that is provided with fixing means for engaging in an upper flange of a container and coupling means for supporting a utensil for handling the food product contained inside the package, the utensil being constituted by two parts that maintain a telescopic extension ratio , being a first part by way of handle and a second part extendable by way of functional section, such that in a position of holding the utensil on the ring, the two parts of the utensil are
    overlapping each other in an extended way and the utensil is held by its two opposite ends at two diametrically opposite points of the ring.

    The fact that the utensil is telescopic allows the user to obtain a utensil with a length almost equivalent to twice the diameter of the ring, so that it may be suitable for disposal in containers with a considerable depth with respect to the dimensions (for example , the diameter) of the overture zone.

    In this report it is understood as a tool any element of manual use intended for the handling of a food in liquid, solid, grain, powder, etc. 10

    In a preferred embodiment, the means for fixing the ring may consist of a double lip defining a separation space provided for the placement of the upper flange of the container, such that the provision of additional fasteners is not necessary.
     fifteen
    In accordance with another aspect of the invention, the coupling means comprise a first portion intended to engage an end of the utensil, which extends from the inside of the ring having a U-shaped cross section and a second portion intended for coupling the opposite end of the utensil, the first and second portions being diametrically arranged opposite each other. twenty

    Advantageously, the ring includes cleaning means that allow the tool to be cleaned manually.

    Additionally, the ring may include dosing means, which may be constituted by a smooth portion that protrudes from inside the ring and has a flange with a rectilinear path. Thus, in the case that the contents of the package are a powdered ingredient, when the user uses a spoon, he can limit the content by passing the spoon along the rectilinear edge, such that the amount of ingredient present in the spoon be dosed 30

    In one embodiment, the cleaning means may consist of a smooth portion that protrudes from the inside of the ring and that has a flange with a rectilinear path that includes a grooved portion defined by two protrusions that extend inferiorly and are convergent to each other. Preferably, the grooved portion has an inclination angle 35 with respect to the rectilinear path flange that facilitates the cleaning operation. The distance between the two projections is less than the thickness of the knife cutting area.

    Also alternatively, the cleaning means may be constituted by a serrated portion protruding from inside the ring, such that a utensil in the form of a fork can be passed to remove any remaining food or ingredient present in the pins of the fork.

    In another embodiment of the invention, the cleaning means consist of a first extension with a curved-concave flange and a second extension spaced with a convex curved-45 flange, such that it allows cleaning of the upper and lower part of the spoon independently.

    Preferably, the utensil as well as the ring can be made of injection moldable plastic material. fifty

    The functional section of the utensil can have a spoon, fork, knife, spatula, etc.

    Other features and advantages of the packaging accessory object of the present invention will be apparent from the description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment, which is illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, in which:

    DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

    In view of the aforementioned figures and, according to the numbering adopted, an example of a preferred embodiment of the invention can be observed therein, which comprises the parts and elements indicated and described in detail below. Mention that the same numerical references have been used in the different embodiments to indicate the same components or parts.

    The various figures represent an accessory for packaging, in particular to be mounted on containers intended to store a food product that is constituted by two main parts consisting of a ring (1) and a utensil (2) that allows handling of the ingredients or foods contained inside the package (not shown).
     Four. Five
    Entering in greater detail, the ring (1) has a circumferential shape and appropriate dimensions according to the dimensions of the package where it is mounted, presenting fixing means for engaging in an upper flange of a container and coupling means to support the utensil (2) that will be detailed later.
     fifty
    Additionally, the ring (1) may have cleaning means, the design of which is adapted according to the type of utensil to be cleaned, as well as dosing means, as will be apparent from the present description.

    As can be seen in a first embodiment represented in Figure 1, the accessory comprises an annular ring (1) that supports utensil (2), in this case a metering spoon arranged centrally, also including dosing means, which are constituted by a smooth portion (10) protruding from inside the ring (1) and having a flange (11) with a rectilinear path. In order to keep the spoon securely and motionless with respect to the annular ring (1), coupling means are provided comprising a first portion (16) provided to engage an end of the utensil, which extends from the inside of the second portion (17) provided to couple the opposite end of the utensil (2), the first and second portions being arranged diametrically opposite each other, as can be seen in the drawing. 10

    In a second embodiment represented in Figure 2, in which the common parts have the same numerical references, it essentially differs in the form of the measuring spoon having a substantially rectangular contour plan, also including the smooth portion (10) with the flange (11) that facilitates the dosage of the amount provided in the spoon.

    In a third embodiment represented in Figure 3, in which the parts common to the above embodiments have the same numerical references, it differs essentially in the fact that the cleaning means present in the ring (1) consist of a portion 20 smooth (10) protruding from inside the ring (1) and having a flange with a rectilinear path that includes a grooved portion (12) defined by two projections that extend inferiorly and are convergent to each other, such two projections being separated a distance that is substantially less than the thickness of the second extensible part as a functional section of the utensil, in this case, preferably being a utensil as a knife. The fact that the width of the grooved portion (12) is less than the thickness of the cutting area of the knife guarantees its cleaning.

    In a fourth embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 4, in which the common parts have the same numerical references, it is essentially differentiated in that the fact that the cleaning means arranged in the ring (1) consist of a portion extended which has a jagged termination (13) protruding from inside the ring (1), so that they are suitable for the case where the utensil for handling the food has a fork shape. The coupling means, as in the previous cases, comprise a first portion (16) provided to engage one end of the utensil, which extends from the inside of the second portion (17) provided to engage the opposite end of the utensil (2), the first and second portions being diametrically arranged opposite each other, as can be seen in the drawing.

    In a fifth embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 5, in which the common parts 40 have the same numerical references, it differs essentially in the fact that the cleaning means consist of a first extension protruding from the inside of the ring ( 1) which has a curved-concave flange (14) and a second extension that also protrudes from the inside of the ring (1) with a curved-convex flange (15).
     Four. Five
    With particular reference now to the tool (2) constituted by two parts (20, 21) that maintain an extended telescopic relationship, being a handle-like part and a second extendable part as a functional section, such that in a holding position of the utensil on the ring, the two parts (20, 21) of the utensil are overlapping each other in an unextended manner and the utensil is held by its two opposite ends at two diametrically opposite points of the ring. Thus, the second part (21) comprises a projection (22) that protrudes capable of sliding in a guided manner through a groove (23) present in the first part (20) as a handle, which has a cross-section rectangular tubular.

    To ensure that the extensible second part (21) does not slide in an undesired manner in relation to the first part (20) when the utensil is being used by the user, the utensil (2) incorporates a retention means consisting of a narrowing present in the groove (23) defined by a protuberance (24), such that to fit the projection (22) in the position of maximum extension or stroke of the second part (21), the user must only make a slight force to that the projection (22) overcomes the narrowing.

    Figures 8 to 11 show different embodiments of the utensils (2) that can be used to be assembled together with the ring (1) described above, the choice of which may depend on the type of product contained inside the package on which the accessory described in this memory is placed. He mentions that the same main parts have equal numerical references.

    The details, shapes, dimensions and other accessory elements, used in the manufacture of an accessory for packaging of the invention may be conveniently substituted by others that do not depart from the scope defined by the claims included below.
