Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a container for foodstuffs comprising a tub and a relative lid able to be selectively associated with each other.
  • the container according to the invention can be of any shape and be used for any type of foodstuff, although it is able to be used advantageously for containing ice cream.
  • Containers for foodstuffs are known, normally made of plastic material, comprising a tub and a lid able to be associated with the tub in order to close it.
  • the lid is associated with the tub through interference between the relative perimeter edges, so that, by exploiting the partial flexibility of the material, the edge of the lid, which overlaps the edge of the tub, can be lifted in order to remove the lid and thus open the container.
  • containers have been proposed with lids provided with a shaped edge defining an arched profile which, apart from being particularly appreciated from the aesthetic point of view, is more resistant to knocks, and allows a more secure closing of the container.
  • One purpose of the present invention is to achieve a container for foodstuffs, provided with a lid with a shaped edge having an arched profile, in which there is at least a pull-off seal able to be removed to allow the lid to be lifted.
  • Another purpose of the present invention is to achieve a container for foodstuffs which is economical to make and practical and safe in use, guaranteeing an effective association between the lid and the tub and easy removal of the pull-off seal in order to lift the lid.
  • Applicant has devised and embodied the present invention to overcome the shortcomings of the state of the art, in order to achieve the above purposes and to obtain further advantages.
  • the container for foodstuffs comprises a tub and a lid provided with a first perimeter edge with an arched profile able to be at least partly superimposed over a second perimeter edge of the tub, bent towards the outside.
  • the first perimeter edge at one end, has first constraint means able to cooperate with second constraint means present on the second perimeter edge.
  • the second perimeter edge has a terminal section, bent upwards, the function of which is to contain and protect laterally the first perimeter edge, in order to prevent, in the inactive condition, the lid from being lifted and released from the tub.
  • the second perimeter edge also has a portion, comprising at least a part of said terminal section which, to achieve the first opening of the container, is able to be removed, or at least bent, so as to allow the lid to be lifted and removed from the tub.
  • this portion is delimited by a plurality of notches defining a line of preferential breakage and is associated with an appendix able to be gripped in order to permit an easier bending or removal.
  • the first perimeter edge comprises, in correspondence with said portion, a lip able to be gripped in order to remove the lid after the portion has been bent or removed.
  • the first constraint means are able to engage, constraining through interference, on second constraint means disposed below the upper profile of the tub in an opposite position to the terminal section of the second perimeter edge.
  • the first constraint means comprise at least a tooth and the second constraint means comprise at least a ridge on which said tooth is able to engage.
  • the first constraint means and the second constraint means define between them a male-female coupling.
  • the reference number 10 denotes generally a container for foodstuffs according to the present invention, advantageously made by molding plastic material which is at least partly deformable elastically, for example polypropylene (PP).
  • PP polypropylene
  • the container 10 comprises a tub 11 and a relative lid 12 able to be associated with the tub 11 in order to close it at the top (figs. 1, 2 and 3).
  • the lid 12 is rectangular shaped with the two long sides curved and the corners rounded, and the tub 11 is shaped like a polyhedron with a base corresponding in shape to that of the lid 12.
  • the lid 12 has a shaped perimeter edge 13 defining an arched profile which is able to be superimposed, coupling through interference, over the perimeter edge 14 of the tub 11.
  • the perimeter edge 13 which develops around a plane central zone 17 of the lid 12, has a segment 15, from the inside to the outside and facing upwards, and a curvilinear section 16 which extends as far as below said central zone 17 and has at the end a tooth 18 facing towards the inside (figs. 15 and 16).
  • the lid 12 has a small gripping lip 20 protruding towards the outside with respect to the perimeter edge 13 (fig. 16), the function of which will be explained hereafter.
  • the perimeter edge 14 of the tub 11 comprises instead, from the inside towards the outside, a first substantially curvilinear section 21, a second substantially vertical section 22, provided with a ridge 25 facing towards the outside, a third substantially horizontal section 23 and a terminal section, or fourth section 24, facing upwards and substantially opposite the second section 22 (figs. 10 and 11).
  • the third section 23 is longer in correspondence with the corner of the gripping lip 20, to allow the latter to be housed (fig. 12).
  • the terminal section 24 is slightly inclined towards the outside, by an angle comprised between 5° and 10° with respect to the vertical, and protrudes upwards for a few millimeters, for example between 2 mm and 5 mm, with respect to the third section 23.
  • the gap between the ridge 25 and the terminal section 24 of the perimeter edge 14 is slightly less than the thickness of the curvilinear section 16 of the perimeter edge 13 in correspondence with the tooth 18.
  • the perimeter edge 14 has a relative portion 28, comprising a part of the third section 23 and a part of the fourth section 24; this portion 28 is delimited by a plurality of notches defining a line of breakage 29 by means of which said portion 28 can be bent or completely removed (figs. 7, 9 and 11).
  • an appendix 30 able to be gripped in order to allow the portion 28 to be bent or removed more easily.
  • the curvilinear section 16 of the perimeter edge 13 is superimposed over the first section 21, the second section 22 and the third section 23 of the perimeter edge 14, and is partly inserted in the hollow between the second section 22 and the terminal section 24, with the latter containing it laterally towards the outside.
  • the tooth 18 is attached to the ridge 25, in a zone located below the upper profile of the tub 11 and protected by the presence of the third section 23 and the terminal section 24 of the perimeter edge 14 (figs. 3 and 4).
  • the lid 12 is therefore removable only by widening the perimeter edge 13 towards the outside and then lifting it, so that the tooth 18 passes over the ridge 25.
  • Lifting the lid 12 determines the elastic deformation of the terminal section 24 which, thrust by the curvilinear section 16, slightly widens towards the outside, allowing the tooth 18 to pass over the ridge 25 (figs. 5 and 6).
  • the container 10 can be closed again, by again associating the lid 12 with the tub 11, and then re-opened always by lifting the lid in correspondence with the lip 20.
  • the invention thus allows to obtain an effective and secure closure of the container 10, allowing it substantially to be opened only by means of deliberately bending or removing the portion 28.
  • the portion 28 can comprise only one part of the terminal section 24, or there may be two or more portions 28 able to be bent or removed in order to allow the lid 12 to be removed.
  • the tooth 18 and the ridge 25 can extend even for one part only, advantageously a substantial part, of the relative perimeter edges.
  • the constraint between the lid 12 on the tub 11 can be obtained by means of a different coupling through interference, for example by means of a male-female coupling obtained by inserting a ridge in a corresponding cavity.
  • the conformation of the tub 11 and the lid 12 can be different from those shown here, just as the shape of the tooth 18, the ridge 25 and the terminal section 24 can also be different.
