Description

DESCRIPCIÓN DESCRIPTION

Dispositivo de soporte para la limpieza de recipientes Support device for cleaning containers

CAMPO TÉCNICO DE LA INVENCIÓN TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

La presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo de soporte para la limpieza de recipientes, que tiene aplicación en la industria de la hostelería, así como en el ámbito particular, permitiendo la limpieza de recipientes tales como cazuelas, sartenes, ollas, pucheros, calderos y similares, y en especial para los denominados paellas o paelleras, de una manera sencilla y rápida mediante un dispositivo sencillo de bajo coste y que puede ser almacenado fácilmente. The present invention relates to a support device for cleaning containers, which has application in the hospitality industry, as well as in the private sphere, allowing the cleaning of containers such as casseroles, frying pans, pots, stewpans, cauldrons and the like, and especially for the so-called paellas or paella pans, in a simple and fast way by means of a simple, low-cost device that can be easily stored.

ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

En la actualidad en el ámbito de la hostelería se utilizan múltiples recipientes de diferentes dimensiones, los cuales requieren ser limpiados y lavados de manera frecuente, lo que, en el caso de recipientes de grandes dimensiones, como paelleras, puede ser una labor dificultosa. Nowadays, in the hospitality sector, many containers of different sizes are used, which require frequent cleaning and washing, which, in the case of large containers, such as paella pans, can be a difficult task.

Así, cuando los recipientes tienen dimensiones reducidas, como es el caso de sartenes, cacerolas o paelleras pequeñas, los inconvenientes suelen ser menores dado que para tal fin, se disponen en el interior del fregadero, pero surge el inconveniente de que, en función de su material, durante la operación de limpieza pueden llegar a estropear o rayar la propia encimera del fregadero. Thus, when the containers are small in size, such as small frying pans, saucepans or paella pans, the inconveniences are usually less since they are placed inside the sink for this purpose, but the inconvenience arises that, depending on their material, during the cleaning operation they may damage or scratch the sink countertop itself.

Por otra parte, cuando dichos recipientes son de dimensiones más próximas o superiores a las de la propia encimera, como es el caso de paelleras grandes, nos encontramos con diversos inconvenientes, entre los cuales cabe mencionar los siguientes: On the other hand, when these containers are of dimensions closer to or larger than those of the worktop itself, as is the case with large paella pans, we encounter various inconveniences, among which the following should be mentioned:

Resulta muy complicado posicionarlos adecuadamente en el interior de la encimera, al no tener cabida tanto su propio cuerpo como por sus dimensiones considerando las asas, y más aún situarlos en una posición horizontal para poder frotar convenientemente ejerciendo fuerza la grasa o restos de comida que han quedado incrustados en el propio recipiente. It is very difficult to position them properly inside the counter, as there is no room for both their own body and their dimensions considering the handles, and even more difficult to place them in a horizontal position to be able to properly rub, by applying force, the grease or food remains that have become embedded in the container itself.

El gasto y consumo de agua para proceder con su limpieza implica un derroche de recursos hídricos muy elevado. The expenditure and consumption of water to clean it implies a very high waste of water resources.

Obviamente, como consecuencia de sus grandes dimensiones no tienen cabida en aparatos domésticos tales como lavavajillas. Obviously, due to their large size, they do not fit in household appliances such as dishwashers.

Asimismo, tal y como se ha indicado, incluso en el caso de recipientes de menores dimensiones, la operación de limpieza puede llegar a estropear o rayar la propia encimera. Furthermore, as indicated, even in the case of smaller containers, the cleaning operation can damage or scratch the worktop itself.

Se conoce el Modelo de Utilidad n.° ES-0242565-U relativo a un dispositivo que comprende un mueble, un motor eléctrico, unos medios de transmisión flexible y una empuñadura que, si bien en parte sirve para enjuagar o limpiar los recipientes, en modo alguno permite soportar o sujetar el propio recipiente, con las complicaciones que ello conlleva, no permitiendo ejercer presión mientras se frota el recipiente al tiempo que se suministra agua en la superficie que se friega. Utility Model No. ES-0242565-U is known for a device comprising a piece of furniture, an electric motor, flexible transmission means and a handle which, while partly used to rinse or clean containers, in no way allows the container itself to be supported or held, with the complications that this entails, not allowing pressure to be applied while the container is being rubbed while water is being supplied to the surface being scrubbed.

Además, este dispositivo comporta una instalación fija, lo que no permite la limpieza de recipientes fuera de su ubicación. In addition, this device requires a fixed installation, which does not allow cleaning of containers outside their location.

DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

La presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo de soporte para la limpieza de recipientes (A), tal y como se define en la reivindicación 1, que permite solventar entre otros, los inconvenientes anteriormente citados de manera satisfactoria, sencilla y de fácil manejo por parte del usuario, permitiendo la reducción del consumo de agua en unas cantidades más que considerables, su utilización con dispositivos de cualesquiera dimensiones y configuraciones en cualquier ubicación, dado su carácter portátil, a la vez que tiene un coste bajo y puede ser almacenado sin ocupar mucho espacio en cualquier armario. The present invention relates to a support device for cleaning containers (A), as defined in claim 1, which allows, among others, the aforementioned drawbacks to be solved in a satisfactory, simple and user-friendly manner, allowing the reduction of water consumption in more than considerable quantities, its use with devices of any size and configuration in any location, given its portable nature, while it has a low cost and can be stored without taking up much space in any cupboard.

Pues bien, de acuerdo con la invención, el dispositivo comprende un cuerpo principal que tiene un borde perimetral de apoyo para apoyar el cuerpo principal en una superficie de apoyo (C), que puede ser un fregadero, una encimera, una mesa, el propio suelo o el fondo de una cubeta tal y como se expone más adelante. Well, according to the invention, the device comprises a main body that has a perimeter support edge to support the main body on a support surface (C), which can be a sink, a countertop, a table, the floor itself or the bottom of a bucket as explained below.

Asimismo, el cuerpo principal comprende al menos dos paredes laterales separadas entre sí, que se extienden desde el borde perimetral de apoyo hasta un borde perimetral superior. Furthermore, the main body comprises at least two side walls separated from each other, which extend from the supporting perimeter edge to an upper perimeter edge.

Por su parte, cada pared lateral comprende al menos un canal que se extiende desde el borde perimetral superior sin llegar hasta el borde perimetral de apoyo, donde un lado de cada canal comprende al menos un vaciado. De este modo, un recipiente (A) puede quedar soportado por el dispositivo mediante el encaje de una parte del recipiente (A) en dicho, al menos un, vaciado de cada canal. For its part, each side wall comprises at least one channel that extends from the upper perimeter edge without reaching the supporting perimeter edge, where one side of each channel comprises at least one recess. In this way, a container (A) can be supported by the device by fitting a part of the container (A) into said at least one recess of each channel.

Así, se consigue tener el recipiente (A) inmovilizado y soportado de manera segura, permitiendo proceder a su limpieza sin tener que sujetarlo manualmente y sin riesgo de dañar la superficie sobre la que se encuentra apoyado. Además, en virtud de su forma de quedar encajado, su limpieza resulta más sencilla, permitiendo la evacuación del agua utilizada. In this way, the container (A) is immobilized and supported safely, allowing it to be cleaned without having to hold it manually and without the risk of damaging the surface on which it is resting. In addition, due to the way it fits together, it is easier to clean, allowing the water used to be evacuated.

Con el objeto de permitir una mayor estabilidad del cuerpo principal se contempla la posibilidad de que ambas paredes laterales tengan una misma altura y estén separadas entre sí por un mismo ancho, de manera que viene a tener una configuración paralelepipédica que facilita su manipulación y colabora en su estabilidad. In order to allow for greater stability of the main body, the possibility is contemplated that both side walls have the same height and are separated from each other by the same width, so that it has a parallelepiped configuration that facilitates its manipulation and contributes to its stability.

Para aquellos casos en los que el recipiente (A) comprende al menos un asa (B) que a su vez comprende un tramo de agarre (B’) y dos tramos transversales (B’’), como es el caso de las paelleras, se contempla que el recipiente (A) quede soportado por el dispositivo mediante el encaje del tramo de agarre (B’) en dicho, al menos un, vaciado de cada canal. For those cases in which the container (A) comprises at least one handle (B) which in turn comprises a grip section (B') and two transverse sections (B''), as is the case with paella pans, it is contemplated that the container (A) is supported by the device by means of the fitting of the grip section (B') in said, at least, one, recess of each channel.

Asimismo, se contempla la posibilidad de que el dispositivo comprenda al menos dos alas que se extienden transversalmente desde cada pared lateral en una zona correspondiente a cada canal en el lado opuesto al de dicho, al menos un, vaciado, de manera que el recipiente (A) queda soportado por el dispositivo mediante el encaje del tramo de agarre (B’) en dicho, al menos un, vaciado de cada canal y el apoyo de los tramos transversales (B’’) en las alas, lo que redunda en una mayor estabilidad del soporte y mejor inmovilización del recipiente (A). Likewise, the possibility is contemplated that the device comprises at least two wings that extend transversely from each side wall in an area corresponding to each channel on the side opposite to said at least one recess, such that the container (A) is supported by the device by means of the engagement of the gripping section (B') in said at least one recess of each channel and the support of the transverse sections (B'') on the wings, which results in greater stability of the support and better immobilization of the container (A).

En el caso de recipientes (A) de dimensiones medias y pequeños, así como para aquellos que carezcan de asas, como puede ser una sartén, se contempla que el dispositivo de soporte comprenda al menos un vaciado situado en proximidad al borde perimetral superior que permite que un recipiente (A) que comprende una base (A’) y una pared circundante (A’’) quede soportado mediante el encaje de la pared circundante (A’’) en dicho, al menos un, vaciado situado en el cada canal en proximidad al borde perimetral superior. In the case of containers (A) of medium and small dimensions, as well as for those that lack handles, such as a frying pan, it is contemplated that the support device comprises at least one recess located in proximity to the upper perimeter edge that allows a container (A) comprising a base (A') and a surrounding wall (A'') to be supported by the fitting of the surrounding wall (A'') in said at least one recess located in each channel in proximity to the upper perimeter edge.

Se contempla que el dispositivo comprenda una cubeta en cuyo interior se dispone el cuerpo principal, de manera que el agua utilizada en la limpieza queda recogida en la cubeta. El fondo de la cubeta es en este caso la superficie de apoyo (C), de manera que a su vez la cubeta puede disponerse sobre una superficie, como puede ser una mesa. It is envisaged that the device comprises a bucket inside which the main body is placed, so that the water used in cleaning is collected in the bucket. The bottom of the bucket is in this case the support surface (C), so that in turn the bucket can be placed on a surface, such as a table.

De acuerdo con esta posibilidad, se contempla a su vez que el dispositivo comprenda una tapa que queda colocada superiormente a la cubeta alojando en su interior el cuerpo principal. In accordance with this possibility, it is also contemplated that the device includes a lid that is placed above the bucket, housing the main body inside.

La tapa puede comprender al menos una abertura posicionada en correspondencia con cada canal, permitiendo así la colocación de los recipientes (A) con la tapa colocada, así como al menos un orificio para la salida de líquido utilizado durante la limpieza del recipiente (A) hasta un depósito que puede estar dispuesto en el interior de la cubeta. The lid may comprise at least one opening positioned in correspondence with each channel, thus allowing the placement of the containers (A) with the lid in place, as well as at least one hole for the outlet of liquid used during cleaning of the container (A) to a tank that may be arranged inside the bucket.

En este sentido, se contempla que la cubeta pueda comprender también un depósito de agua limpia, en este caso independiente del depósito anterior, en cuyo interior incluso se pueda disponer en situaciones de no uso, una bomba de succión, una conducción y un elemento rociador. In this sense, it is contemplated that the bucket may also include a clean water tank, in this case independent of the previous tank, inside which a suction pump, a pipe and a spray element may even be arranged when not in use.

Asimismo, se contempla la posibilidad de que la cubeta comprenda presillas o agarraderas extensibles que permiten fijar el dispositivo a la superficie de apoyo tal como una mesa. It is also possible that the bucket includes clips or extendable handles that allow the device to be fixed to a support surface such as a table.

Por último, se contempla que el borde superior de la cubeta comprenda al menos tres salientes, que pueden ser tacos de elastómero, para apoyar la base (A’) del recipiente (A) en posición horizontal, lo que resulta útil para proceder al secado del recipiente (A) una vez limpio en una posición en la que no se dañe. Finally, it is contemplated that the upper edge of the bucket comprises at least three projections, which may be elastomer pads, to support the base (A') of the container (A) in a horizontal position, which is useful for proceeding to dry the container (A) once it is clean in a position where it will not be damaged.
