Fig. 1 is an elevation view of the structure.
Fig. 2 is a rear elevation view of the structure.
Fig. 3 is a planned view off the top of the container.
Fig. 4 is a planned view of an opened container top.
Fig. 5 is a planned view of a closed container bottom.
Figs. 6 and 7 are planned views of opposite halves of the container bottom closure.
The invention is a disposable container 10. Its structure is illustrated byFigs. l-8. Turning first to Fig. 8, there is shown a cross- sectional view of the invention. It includes an exterior paperboard container 10 that holds an insulating sleeve 12 that carnes a collapsible bag 14 for holding hot fluid.
I~ag 14 may be made of any suitable material that can contain hot beverages.
Preferred materials for the collapsible bag are nylon and metalized flexible materials. At one end the bag is a narrow neck 16 with a threaded connection for receiving a threaded cap 17. The other end has a folded gusset plate, not shown. Insulating material 12 surrounds the bag and may be any suitable material including p~olystyrane or any open or closed cellular material. As an alternative, the insulating sleeve 12 could be replaced by loose insulation or other suitable material for reducing the transfer ofheat from the hot liquids contained in the bag 14 to the ambient environment.
The container 10 is made of paperboard. Paperboard has a a (brown) or unfinished surface as well as a finished surface. The finished surface may have any suitable color. It is common that such paperboard have a white finished surface. Paperboard is chosen in lieu of corrugated materials because paperboard is relatively stiffer and can form bent walls and integral hinges. The entire structure 10 is formed from a single sheet of paperboard that is suitably scored, cut, bent and folded t:o provide the structure shown in the figures. The structure 10 includes seven walls 20-26 that form a six sided hexagonal structure. The tow longest walls 23-24 overlap. The container has a top 30 that is integral with one of the longest walls. The container has a bottom SO that includes multilobed interfering flaps 52, 62. Those flaps are minor images of each other and are mounted on the bottom edges of the walls.
The walls have different lengths to provide a sloped upper suface. All of the walls have their lower edges in a continuous line. Turning to Fig. 1, the shortest wall 20 that faces the front of the device. Opposite front wall 20 are the backwalls 23, 24.
They are the longest walls. Walls 21 and 26 are on opposite sides of wall 20 and their respective top edges generally slope in an upward direction towards the rear. Walls 25 and 26 are integral, respectively, with walls 26 and 21. The upper edges of walls 25, 22 also slope up toward to top edge of the back walls 23, 24. Wahs 25 and 22 are also integral with the rear walls 23, 24, respectively.
The rear walls 23, 24 overlap and are suitably fixed together by adhesive materials such as glue or any other suitable means including mechanical and chemical means for fixing one of the walls to the other. The rear walls 23, 24 have a aperture 18 that provides a thumb hole for carrying or manipulating the container.
Top flap 30 is integral with either the inside or the outside back walls 23, 24. The top flap 30 h~~s a central hexagonal planar surface 31 that includes an opening 32 for the neck 16 of the bag 14.
The top flap 30 has three integral lobes 44, 46 and 42 that are disposed on alternate sides of the hexagonal flap 31. Flaps 44 and 46 have integral hinges 45 that allow the outer flaps to bend and to fit adjacent top ends of walls 25, 22, respectively. The outer flaps 44, 46 fold over retaining lobes 27 and 29 that are on the upper ends, respectively, of front slanted walls 26, 21. The retaining flaps 2'7, 29 cover the top of the bag 14. The flaps 44 and 46 fold into the interior of the container 10. Small cutouts 48, 49 along the integral hinge/score lines 45, 47 serve to capture and lock onto the lobes 27, 29 of walls 26, Z 1 when the flap 30 is closed. The front lobe 42 of the flap 31 fits behind front wall 20. Front wall 20 has an integral, hinged vertical collar 34 with an opening 37 between a pair of yokes 36, 38. The yokes 36, 38 press against the neck 16 of the bag 14 in order to secure the bag in the opening 32. Bottom 50 of the container 10 is formed by the opposing multilobe structure shown in Figs. 6 and 7. Turning first to multilobe 52 there is shown a central lobe 53 that is integral with the front wall 20. A single lobe 54 is integral with front wall 21 and a double lobe structure 55, 57 is integral with front wall 26. The double lobe structure 55, 57 is scored and bends along an integral hinge line 56. Fig. 7 shows a corresponding structure that is formed along the bottom of walls 22, 23 or 24, and 25. The lobe 57 is glued to opposite lobe 64 and likewise lobe 67 is glued to opposite lobe 54. The central lobes 53 and 63 have interference cuts and a meeting line for folding and locking together to provide the bottom surface of the container.
To manufacture the container 10, a single paperboard sheet is suitably scored, punched and bent to provide the apertures, lobes and integral hinges described above. Then the rear walls 23, 24 are glued together as are the bottom lobes 64/57 and 54/67. At that stage, the entire assembly may be stored in a flattened state until it is ready for use. When required, the structure is manipulated to expand and to lock the bottom lobes 5 3, 63 into place. A suitable insulating sleeve I2 is added inside of the container and a collapsible bag 14 is place inside the insulating sleeve l2.The top flap 30 is folded over the neck 16 of the bag 14. The collar 34 is also folded over the neck in order to form the final structure. The cap 17 on the bag may be removed from the bag may be filled with hot beverage >uch as coffee or hot tea or hot cocoa or any other suitable hot or even cold beverage. After filling the bag 14, cap.17 is screwed back onto the neck 16 and the customer may take the disposable beverage container from the retail establishment.
With the invention the container must be tipped from its upright position in order to dispense fluid. The relative vertical orientation of the container coupled with its wide base, provides a stable;
upright container. A user must not only open the cap sealing the flexible bag, but must also tip the container. As such, at least two affirmative activities are required before the container dispenses fluid. Thi s construction and arrangement overcomes disadvantages of prior art devices that rely upon gravity for dispensing fluid. Those devices place the discharge spout proximate the bottom of the container. With such devices fluid may be accidentally dispensed if someone opens the cap. In contrast, the invention place the discharge spout far away from the bottom ofthe container and put it on the top sloping wall thereby minimizing the possibility of accidentally pouring hot coffee.
Having thus described the preferred embodiment of the invention, those skilled in the art will appreciate that other modifications, changes and variations may be made including omissions and additions of further structures without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, the invention shows a six-sided structure that includes seven wall pieces. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that other multisided structures may be made where the numbers of wall pieces exceed the number of sides by one or more. If further strength of walls are required, the structure may have multiple overlapping sidewalk.
