INDIVIDUAL TUBULAR PACKAGING MADE OF IMPERMEABLE PAPER FOR PACKAGING DRINKING/MINERAL WATER OR OTHER LIQUID SUBSTANCES FOR ICE FORMATION

Abstract

A packaging for drinking water/minerals or other liquid substances for individualized ice formation is disclosed, which provides for areas of expansion of the liquid for its transformation into ice and its tubular shape without damaging the packaging, i.e. the weak sealing (3) which provides for the expansion/expansion, which will be broken at the proposed end(s) and the expansion generated in the change of state from liquid to solid will be assimilated normally by the package conformation, but limited by the strong sealing (2) and stronger (4), avoiding early package rupture, ensuring its integrity, either for storage or after frozen for consumption.

Claims

1. TUBULAR PACKAGING INDIVIDUALIZED IN WATERPROOF PAPER FOR POTABLE/MINERAL WATER OR OTHER LIQUID SUBSTANCES FOR ICE FORMATION, made of waterproof paper and/or preferably biodegradable film (1), where the packaging has a front area (A) and a back area (B) which allow for the inclusion of areas for liquid expansion and its transformation into ice without damaging the packaging, characterized by the fact that the tubular package (1) has two areas of strong safety weld (2), an area of weak expansion weld (3) intended to compose the expansion area at one end and an area on the back of stronger longitudinal weld (4).

2. (canceled)

3. TUBULAR PACKAGING, INDIVIDUALIZED ON WATERPROOF PAPER FOR CONTAINING DRINK/WATER/MINERALS OR OTHER LIQUID SUBSTANCES FOR ICE FORMATION according to claim 1, characterized by being able to hold a second configuration, where there are two expansion areas composed of weak welds, one at each end (3), allowing discharge to either end of the packaging.

[0025] FIG. 1A is a front view of the package (1) with the contents in the liquid state, strong safety welds (2) and expansion area with the weak weld (3) at one end;

[0026] FIG. 1B is a front view of the package (1) with the contents in the solid state, strong safety welds (2), with the weak weld (3) broken with the expansion done at one end;

[0027] FIG. 1C is a view of the back of the package (1) with the contents in the liquid state, strong safety welds(2), expansion area with the weak weld (3) at one end before expansion and the stronger longitudinal weld (4);

[0028] FIG. 1D is a view of the back of the package (1) with the contents in the solid state, strong safety welds (2), expansion area with the weak weld (3) at one end broken with the expansion made at one end and the stronger longitudinal weld (4);

[0029] FIG. 2A is a front view of the package (1) with the contents in the liquid state, strong safety welds (2) and expansion areas with the weak welds (3) at both ends;

[0030] FIG. 2B is a front view of the package (1) with the contents in the solid state, strong safety welds (2) with the weak welds (3) broken with expansion at both ends;

[0031] FIG. 2C is a view of the back of the package (1) with the contents in the liquid state, strong safety welds (2), weak weld (3) before expansion at both ends, and the strongest longitudinal weld (4);

[0032] FIG. 2D is a view of the back of the package (1) with the contents in the solid state, strong safety welds (2), weak welds (3) broken with expansion at both ends, and the strongest longitudinal weld (4).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The confection of the tubular packaging, object of the present patent, is performed with the use of impermeable paper and/or preferably biodegradable film (1), where the said packaging has a front area (A) and a back area (B), and the illustrations of FIG. 1 exemplify the realization where the ends have two areas of strong safety weld (2), to prevent early breakage when the liquid solidifies, an area of weak expansion weld (3) intended to compose the expansion area while allowing the ice to come out in a tubular format without deformation, and an area on the back of stronger longitudinal weld (4).

[0034] The images in FIG. 2, illustrate a constructive variant of the package of FIG. 1, where it uses the same raw material, waterproof paper and/or preferably biodegradable film (1), and which also has two areas of strong solder (2) and, in this version includes a second area of weak solder expansion (3), i.e. the weak solder (3) is applied on both ends, and on the back side the area of stronger longitudinal solder (4).

[0035] The major conceptual difference between the present patent and the prior art, is the use of the prediction and inclusion of areas of expansion of the liquid for its transformation into ice and its tubular shape without damaging the package, i.e., the weak seal (3) will be broken at the proposed end(s) and the expansion generated in the change of state from liquid to solid will be assimilated normally by the package conformation, but limited by the strong seal (2) and stronger longitudinal (4), avoiding the early rupture of the package, ensuring its integrity.
