Description

DESCRIPTION

Union element between containers

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The invention, as the title of this descriptive report establishes a joining element between containers. It is an innovation that, within current techniques, provides previously unknown advantages.

The joining element allows a user to carry two containers in one hand, for which they would have to have both hands occupied if they did not have this product. This offers you greater freedom of movement and comfort.

TECHNIQUE SECTOR

Therefore, this invention is limited to the sector of manufacturing packaging and accessory elements.

STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE

There are many situations in which we have to hold several food or drink containers, for which we have to use both hands. This means that we cannot hold the mobile phone, open a door or directly consume the food contained in the container or drink the drink from the glass.

This situation is very common when we go to the cinema, where it is traditional to buy a container of popcorn and a glass of soda.

With the objective of solving the detailed problems, the current invention is presented.

The existence of any product with the same technical characteristics as the invention presented here is unknown.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The object of the present invention is the creation of a joining element between containers that provides a notable innovation within its field of application in the current state of the art, the characterizing details that make it possible being conveniently included in the final claims that accompany the present description.

The joining element allows a person to carry two containers with one hand, such as a glass with soda and a box full of popcorn. In this way the user will be able to consume both the drink and the popcorn comfortably, in addition to being able to perform other actions such as opening a door, holding the mobile phone,...

To do this, the element for connecting containers comprises a flat body at the upper end of which it has a first clamp configured to be fixed to the wall of a glass or beverage container.

At a lower height, the body has, on the opposite side to where the first clamp is located, a second clamp configured to be fixed on the popcorn box or food container.

The user must hold the assembly by grabbing the glass or beverage container, since it is the heaviest of all, so that the clamp does not have to exert great pressure.

EXPLANATION OF THE FIGURES

To complete the description that is being made and in order to help better understand the characteristics of the invention, this descriptive report is accompanied, as an integral part thereof, by figures in which, for illustrative purposes and non-limiting, the following has been represented.

Figure 1 corresponds to a view of the joining element showing how it allows holding a glass and a box of popcorn.

Figure 2 corresponds to a view of the joining element seen in profile.

Figure 3 corresponds to a detail of the end of an example of the second clamp.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

The connecting element between containers comprises a flat body (1) at the upper end of which it has a first clamp (2) configured to be fixed on a glass (3) or beverage container. At a lower height, the body (1) has, on the opposite side to where the first clamp (2) is located, a second clamp (4) configured to be fixed on the popcorn box (5) or food container.

In a preferred embodiment, the first and second clamps (2 and 4) are made of the same material as the body (1), generally plastic.

Both the first and the second clamps (2 and 4) have a tongue-shaped configuration that emerges downward from the body (1).

Between the tongue and the body (1) there is a distance such that the wall of the glass (3) or popcorn box (5) can be inserted and remain fixed, for which the tongue exerts pressure towards the body (1), thus leaving the wall of the container is caught.

Preferably, the width of the first clamp (2) will be less than 2 centimeters. In this way, despite having the clamp in place holding the glass by its upper edge, we can place the lid on the glass if we wish, without the first clamp (2) preventing us from doing so.

In one embodiment, the lower end of the second clamp (4) and the body (1) in the area where it comes into contact with the end of the second clamp (4), have a plurality of teeth (6). ). The teeth (6) of the second clamp (4) and of the body (1) are complementary to each other, and allow for better gripping of the popcorn container.

Having sufficiently described the nature of the present invention, as well as the way of putting it into practice, it is not considered necessary to make its explanation more extensive so that any expert in the field understands its scope and the advantages derived from it, stating that, Within its essentiality, it may be put into practice in other embodiments that differ in detail from the one indicated as an example, and to which the protection sought will also be achieved as long as its fundamental principle is not altered, changed or modified. .
