1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a hygienic nozzle for bottles, the body of which is rigidly joined to a base which has a recess in the central part thereof forming a ring with the interior surface of the body of the nozzle for the support thereof on the mouth of bottles.
2. Description of Related Art Including Information Disclosed Under 37 CFR 1.97 and 37 CFR 1.98.
At present and as a reference to the prior art, it is common and known to utilize different closures for bottles such as cork or plastic stoppers as well as metallic caps or capsules which prevent the accidental pouring of the contents of the bottle and serve to maintain or preserve the properties of the liquids. The removal of said closures for the consumption of beverages can leave residues such as rust, cork or mold on the mouth of the bottle.
Also known are diverse nozzles for pouring the contents of the bottles such as those used for pouring cider, dressing salads or measuring out liquors.
In bars it is common to use a paper serviette which is rolled on the mouth of the bottle when beverages are served in order to consume them directly from the bottle, with the aim that the consumer can clean possible remains of rust or residues left by the closure of the bottle and as a hygienic measure.
In the face of this state of affairs, the object of the invention claims a hygienic nozzle for bottles which consists of a body which is rigidly joined to a base which has a recess in the central part thereof forming a ring with the interior surface of the body of the nozzle for the support thereof on the mouth of bottles.
The use of this nozzle enables the cleaning of possible residues from the mouth of the bottles, as well as the preservation of the properties of the beverage to be consumed.
The present invention makes reference to a hygienic nozzle for bottles composed of a body rigidly joined to a base which has, at its center, a recess which defines, with the interior surface of the body of the nozzle, a support ring on the mouth of the bottle which enables the cleaning of possible residues from the mouth of the bottles as well as the preservation of the properties of the beverage to be consumed.
The body of the nozzle preferably adopts a tapered configuration which enables the use thereof in bottles with different mouth diameters since the nozzle is supported by the interior part of the base thereof on the bottles with standard or smaller diameter and on the interior wall of the body of the nozzle in bottles with greater diameter.
Furthermore it is provided that the recess of the base of the nozzle has a conical form, which enables the stacking of various nozzles in an immovable manner, facilitating the packaging and storage thereof since upon inserting a nozzle into the interior of another, the volume of the assembly is considerably reduced, which economizes the costs of packaging and minimizes the space required for the storage thereof.
The conical form of the recess of the base of the nozzle also facilitates condensation and reduces the effervescence of gaseous, sparkling or carbonated beverages, allowing the properties of said beverages to be maintained.
In addition, the nozzle object of the invention is provided such that it can contain, in the interior thereof, antiseptic elements by means of inserting a sheet into the interior part of the nozzle or by means of utilizing an antiseptic solution applied by means of impregnation or spraying, which improves the hygienic qualities of the nozzle.
Lastly, it is provided such that on the exterior surface of the body of the nozzle which has smooth walls, a label can be placed by means of adhering, printing or stamping which enables the use thereof for advertising or informative purposes.
Additionally, the nozzle, due to its tapered configuration with flat base, can be utilized as a glass for sampling “shots” and can be supported on the bar on a table or on any horizontal surface.
In order to better understand the nature of the invention, in the attached drawings, a preferred industrial embodiment is represented, which is merely an illustrative and non-limiting example.
In these figures, the following references are represented:
1. Body
2. Interior surface
3. Base
4. Recess
5. Bottle
With reference to the drawings and references numbered above, a preferred embodiment object of the invention is illustrated in the attached plans, relating to a hygienic nozzle for bottles.
The device which is proposed as illustrated in
The recess (4) preferably has a conical form as is illustrated in
The use of antiseptic elements on the interior surface (2) of the body (1) of the nozzle, is preferably provided by means of the insertion of an antiseptic sheet or by means of impregnation or spraying of an antiseptic substance suitable for human consumption.
The tapered formation of the body (1) of the nozzle and the flat base (3) enables the use thereof as a glass as is reflected in
The smooth exterior surface of the body (1) as is reflected in
Furthermore, the tapered form of the body (1) of the nozzle enables the use thereof on bottles with mouths of different diameters, since the nozzle is supported by the interior part of the base (3) on the bottles with standard or smaller diameter and on the interior surface (2) of the body (1) of the nozzle on the bottles with a greater diameter, as is represented in
Thanks to this configuration, the known paper serviette rolled on the mouth of the bottle, commonly used in bars, can be substituted with a nozzle which enables the cleaning of the possible residues from the mouth of the bottles or the disinfecting thereof, the preservation of the properties of the beverage to be consumed, the use thereof as a glass or as an advertising or informative medium as well as the adaptation to different mouth diameters and the immovable stacking of various nozzles, reducing the costs of packaging and facilitating the storage thereof.
Variations in materials, form, size and arrangement of the component elements, described in a non-limiting manner, do not alter the essence of this utility model.
