Tapón biodegradable para envasesBiodegradable cap for packaging
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La presente solicitud tiene por objeto proporcionar un tapón monopieza y de un solo material biodegradable para envases que, gracias a la particular configuración y el material biodegradable utilizado para su fabricación, resulta en una notable ventaja frente a los tapones utilizados hasta el momento desde un punto de vista ambiental y funcional.The purpose of this application is to provide a one-piece cap made of a single biodegradable material for packaging that, thanks to the particular configuration and the biodegradable material used for its manufacture, results in a notable advantage over the caps used to date from a point of view. from an environmental and functional point of view.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Como es sabido, hoy en día existe una amplia variedad de envases o recipientes, especialmente los dedicados a contener productos de perfumería, tales como, por ejemplo, sustancias líquidas del tipo fragancias o aromáticas, cuya apariencia estética es de gran importancia, en los que el tapón que los cierra debe estar en concordancia con el diseño del propio envase, y tener además la capacidad de proporcionar una garantía de cierre adecuada al producto que contiene en su interior.As is known, today there is a wide variety of containers or containers, especially those dedicated to containing perfumery products, such as, for example, liquid substances of the fragrance or aromatic type, whose aesthetic appearance is of great importance, in which The cap that closes them must be in accordance with the design of the container itself, and also have the capacity to provide an adequate closure guarantee for the product it contains inside.
Mencionar que un volumen muy elevado de tapones usados en envases para el sector de la perfumería está hecho de material plástico, aluminio, entre otros, lo que implica que una vez usado se convierte en un residuo que no siempre puede ser reciclado, por lo que desde un punto de vista medioambiental no resulta beneficioso el empleo de estos materiales, siendo adecuado el empleo de materiales alternativos. Además, son conocidos tapones en los cuales se utilizan distintos materiales, lo que dificulta la reciclabilidad de los mismos.It should be mentioned that a very high volume of caps used in packaging for the perfumery sector is made of plastic material, aluminum, among others, which means that once used it becomes waste that cannot always be recycled, so From an environmental point of view, the use of these materials is not beneficial, and the use of alternative materials is appropriate. Furthermore, caps are known in which different materials are used, which makes their recyclability difficult.
Por otro lado, son conocidos en el mercado los tapones con carcasas de madera y un componente interior de plástico adherido, por ejemplo, mediante adhesivo, en su interior, normalmente utilizados como tapones decorativos en el sector de la perfumería. Este componente anterior ayuda a mantener el tapón en su sitio de forma segura.On the other hand, caps with wooden casings and an internal plastic component adhered, for example, by means of adhesive, to the inside, are known on the market, normally used as decorative caps in the perfumery sector. This anterior component helps keep the plug securely in place.
El hecho de emplear partes adicionales en la fabricación del tapón implica una mayor inversión de utillajes, así como de los propios materiales a emplear y, por consiguiente, un encarecimiento del coste total del tapón. The fact of using additional parts in the manufacture of the cap implies a greater investment in tooling, as well as the materials to be used and, consequently, an increase in the total cost of the cap.
Por otro lado, en el caso de emplear un tapón de madera con un alojamiento interior de planta cilindrica, debido a las tolerancias en el proceso de fabricación, existe el riesgo de no cumplir satisfactoriamente con la fuerza mínima que debe ejercer el cuerpo del tapón sobre un gollete de envase a fin de asegurar que no se libera de forma no deseada. Una solución conocida a este problema es añadir un elemento adicional, pero tal como se ha expuesto con anterioridad, encarece el coste final del tapón.On the other hand, in the case of using a wooden stopper with a cylindrical interior housing, due to tolerances in the manufacturing process, there is a risk of not satisfactorily complying with the minimum force that the body of the stopper must exert on a container neck to ensure that it is not released undesiredly. A known solution to this problem is to add an additional element, but as previously stated, it increases the final cost of the stopper.
Además, el solicitante no tiene conocimiento en la actualidad de una invención que disponga de todas las características que se describen en esta memoria.Furthermore, the applicant is not currently aware of an invention that has all the characteristics described herein.

Particularmente, el material biodegradable es madera, un derivado de la madera o un compuesto formado a partir de partículas de madera y otras partículas de material reciclable.Particularly, the biodegradable material is wood, a wood derivative or a composite formed from wood particles and other recyclable material particles.
Según la invención, el reborde interior de la pared lateral puede presentar un tramo achaflanado con un ángulo de 45 grados. According to the invention, the inner edge of the side wall may have a chamfered section with an angle of 45 degrees.
Más concretamente, la cara interior de la pared lateral puede tener un grado de inclinación respecto a la cara interior de la base de 91 grados.More specifically, the interior face of the side wall may have a degree of inclination with respect to the interior face of the base of 91 degrees.
Gracias a estas características, se obtiene un tapón en la cual se garantiza al usuario la acción de cierre del mismo sobre un recipiente, sin necesidad de elementos adicionales de cierre y favoreciendo al medio ambiente por el material empleado en su fabricación. La configuración constructiva interior del tapón está esencialmente ideada para que la extracción de éste sobre un cuello o gollete de envase sea en un sentido vertical y con una fuerza de tracción de alrededor de 1 a 5 KgThanks to these characteristics, a cap is obtained in which the user is guaranteed its closing action on a container, without the need for additional closing elements and favoring the environment due to the material used in its manufacture. The interior construction configuration of the cap is essentially designed so that its extraction from a container neck or neck is in a vertical direction and with a traction force of around 1 to 5 Kg.
El tapón descrito representa, pues, una estructura innovadora de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para el fin a que se destina, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita.The cap described represents, therefore, an innovative structure with structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now for the purpose for which it is intended, reasons that, together with its practical usefulness, provide it with sufficient foundation to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.
