BAG, INCORPORATING A HEATING OR COOLING DEVICE, FOR A FLUID O

R SOLID SUBSTANCE

A SUPPLE PORTABLE BAG, INCORPORATING A CHARGED HEATING OR COOLING THERMAL DEVICE, FOR A FLUID OR SOLID FILLING SUBSTANCE, PARTICULARLY FOR EDIBLES, DRINKABLES, LIQUID FOODS OR NON-FOOD PRODUCTS.

This invention refers to a disposable supple thermal container shaped like an envelope or bag auto-heating or auto-cooling.

It finds use in various applications: in the food, medical, pharmaceutical, free time, recreation, sport, hobby, do-it- yourself, military- field as well as for humanitarian assistance and interventions, disaster interventions and so on .

The supple thermal container with embodied internal thermal exchange subject of this invention is shaped like an envelope or bag with double pocket, one to contain the consumer product, the other to safe contain the reaction chamber. The pocket intended to . contain the reaction chamber is made by folding a single sheet.

It is a question of a handy disposable dispenser of a consumer product with the need of heating or cooling, exploiting exothermic or endothermic reactions produced by pressure breaking of a bag containing the reaction liquid which comes into contact with the reacting chemical product, said process occurring into the reaction chamber. The peculiarity of this design is that thanks to the double pocket the reaction chamber is fully separated from the consumer product-, causing a noticeable safety level dramatically increased in comparison with the products of the know technique already in use with "bag in bag" or "bag in bag in bag" concept.

The container is provided with a double-function valve, that means performing its duty at the same time for the pocket containing the reaction chamber as well as for the pocket containing the consumer product, with the aim to control a possible excessive pressure generated by the chemical reaction or by an incorrect dosage of the chemical product or in case of an incorrect use of the container. The consumption of the product occurs through a spout, protected by a cap or through tear opening.

Thanks to the above-described innovations, the container subject of this invention opposes and solves the drawbacks of the previous products of the known technique.

The Patent EP18966343, even if it introduces for the first time the concept of an endothermic pocket-size supple container, still results too primitive by its design with too many separate · compartments inducing handling difficulty and limits to the alimentary safety being the immersed reaction chamber adjacent to the space containing the consumer product .

The Patent Application PCT/IB2011/002223 (and the corresponding European EP2619279) introduces the cascade multi-chamber concept with dedicated spaces one into the other, each dedicated to a defined function: reagent, reaction liquid, reaction chamber, consumer product; nevertheless the alimentary safety is not assured in case of break of the chamber due to overpressure, even with the addition of the valve placed on the bottom because the reaction chamber rips fundamentally on the seams in particular the lateral ones.

The Patent Application PCT WO 2012/113479 represents a pure infringement of the previous one from the point of view on the innovative principle, while from the drawings and the claims it seems to be lacking of the fundamental characteristics of the flexibility, because the claimed elasticity of the material does not necessarily require a flexibility of the packaging and does not exclude its rigidity.

This invention refers instead to a handy supple container with internal thermal exchange for dispensing thermally pre-treated substances, heated or cooled, whose innovative characteristic resides in the fact that the element building the reaction chamber containing the thermal charge is inserted from the side or from the bottom in a safety pocket built by folding a sheet inside the pocket for the consumer product, which is built by the walls of the said container .

The new aim is not to build the envelope or pocket by folding a sheet only to allow interchangeability/recharge but instead essentially to avoid the contact between consumer product and reaction chamber, which are isolated exactly by the interposed pocket containing the reaction chamber .

Unlike the findings, of the known technique, which have the reaction chamber immersed in the consumer product to improve the thermal effect, the peculiarity of this idea is that, in our case,, the reaction chamber, besides not be immersed in the consumer product, is further shielded by the interposed intermediate safety pocket; in fact the aim is exactly to avoid this through the interposition between consumer product and reaction chamber of a pocket containing the reaction chamber.

More precisely the finding subject of this invention refers to what is- described in the Claim 1 , that is a portable, handy, supple thermal container for self-service consumable preparations, including inside an auto-heating or auto- cooling thermal charge, composed of a pocket, envelope or bag containing the consumer product, separated means containing the reagent and the chemical reaction product, with calibrated release and coupling, means or walls to separate the reaction product and the products for preparation and consumption, characterized by the fact that said thermal supple container with embodied internal thermal exchange, is shaped like an envelope or bag with double pocket, one to contain the consumer product, the other to contain the reaction chamber, the pocket intended to contain the reaction chamber being built by folding a sheet . Further advantages coming from this invention refer to the description below in the Claims from 2 to 9.

The portable, handy, supple thermal container for self- service consumable preparations it is characterized by the fact that the element building the thermal reaction chamber, which contains the package of the chemical reagents or thermal charge, is placed in a separated safety pocket, built by folding inside the pocket a sheet joining at its ends to the end edges of the said pocket. Said element building the reaction chamber and containing the thermal charge is inserted from the side or from the bottom in a safety pocket built by folding a sheet inside the pocket for the consumer product, this latter built by the sheet of the walls of said container.

Said element containing the thermal reaction chamber, which contains the package of the chemical reagents, is made by a pocket built by folding inside a point of the pocket an extended strip of a bag-shaped sheet, joining itself at its ends respectively to the end edges of the sheet building ^■ the pocket of the consumer product, to obtain said pocket, to build a stand-up container with lateral loading. In a different way of execution the element containing the thermal reaction chamber, which contains the package on the chemical reagents, is made by a pocket built by joining inside the pocket of the consumer product the edges of a bag-shaped sheet, joining itself at its ends to the end edges of the sheet building the pocket of the consumer product, respectively, to obtain said pocket, to build a container shaped as envelope or bag with bottom loading. The reaction chemical product is in the form of pastilles or capsules or tablets or wafers covered by a protective layer, with calibrated trigger and reaction with gradual, extended, uniform and controlled release of the thermal effect, while the container of the reagent is a bubble of non-evaporable and/or antifreeze liquid, collapsible by calibrated stress along a predetermined breaking line, pressure activated with uniform, progressive and total release of the liquid to generate an improved and increased thermal effect, even if a smaller amount of chemical product is utilised.

The anti-deflagration safety valve of the reaction chamber is bivalent for the pocket of the consumer product and that one containing the reaction chamber and is arranged along a lateral edge of the container to prevent their prevalent lateral break or collapse and can also simply be made by a calibrated draft of the seams arranged on a point along the lateral edge of said pockets.

Said container of the invention is characterized by the fact that said supple container is shaped like a supple, deformable, handy, portable envelope or bag, which can be activated by calibrated stress with independent reaction chamber, isolated by means of the interposed pocket for the alimentary and/or operational safety.

Said container finds peculiar use and application for self- service consumer preparations in supple, handy and safe packaging for filling with fluid substances of every type and viscosity, particularly foods, also solid, edible and non-edible liquids. More precisely further characteristics of this finding subject of the invention are related to:

1. Form of the chemical reagent

Instead of utilising the. chemical component as loose powder, ^' by the new finding subject of this invention said chemical component is arranged as pills, pastilles, cylindrical or otherwise shaped capsules, tablets and so ^' on, with the following significant advantages:

a) higher precision of the dosage

b) noticeable reduction of the possible influx of the humidity of the air, being possible- to protect the reagent in protected form of tablets with protective layer or capsules or wafers; greater . rapidit of execution of the reaction chamber (facilitation of the industrial process) ; easy preservation in the production process or in case the company provide only the reaction chamber to the customers at their turn producers of the consumer product, who should build themselves the envelope and perform the filling in their premises, receiving the reaction chamber built by a third party; c) development of the chemical reaction in a more gradual way, allowing the user to contain the envelope in his hand awaiting the consumption, without risk of scalds or nuisance for the too high temperature; instead with the previous system the heat grows quickly and in the time elapsing up to the heat transfer to the consumer product it is annoying to contain in the hand the envelope; furthermore this allows the consumer to choose whether to consume the product at the highest temperature or at a lower for him more agreeable temperature;

d) the final temperature reached by the chemical reaction keeps longer, improving times and ways of consumption of the product. 2. Bubble with liquid

By the finding subject of this invention the container of the reagent liquid do not break by chance and in the material itself, but in the seam purposely designed, so that also this generates a more gradual, more measurable with respect to the temperature gap to be reached and more complete thermal reaction, being the breaking/opening more specific, more precise, more uniform and fully.

This allows arranging it inside its pocket whether horizontally or vertically, making easier and more precise the manufacturing ^■ (the industrial phase). Furthermore the user can easy understands whether the opening/breaking has occurred or not, while by the executions of the previously known technique, besides the drawback that the bubble of the liquid could even not break, was more difficult to understand immediately whether this had occurred and furthermore between an envelope and the other the feeling could be quite different, so increasing the uncertainty about the occurred breaking and making the use less pleasant.

The adjustment of the seam according to the pressure to be exerted to perform the opening is clearly more precise and more effective.

Our opening/breaking ensures that the whole of the liquid flows out the bubble because it opens on a whole side; this gives the certainty that the whole of the liquid flows out the bubble and goes to interact with the chemical product; instead previously because of the immediate solidification of the chemical product and the possible only partial flow of the liquid from its cell, it happened that not the whole of the liquid went to interact to develop the chemical reaction fully or in the same way or at the same speed, causing a number of uncertainties or greater uncertainty on the effectiveness or possibly also less effectiveness of the reaction itself. Previously for the other types, besides to make less attractive the product due to the uncertainty induced in the user about the reached temperature and the heating times, this made also uncertain, clearly more difficult or nearly impossible to precisely measure out the thermal gap; all this negatively influencing the use and the marketing of the final product.

Said solution of the invention on the contrary allows adjusting with appreciable precision the thermal gap, allowing creating envelopes with higher thermal gap to individualize/adapt the use to the external meteorological conditions, the custody place, the way of use and the contained product. Furthermore, it serves to check the reached temperatures when we make · products that have to become only lukewarm or have a set temperature

3. Safety valve

The safety valve 6 is absolutely positioned on the side of the envelope, that means where it is joined 1"' , preferably in a point situated approximately at the height of 1/2 of the pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber 4, that means at about 1/4 of the length of the external envelope, calculated starting from the basis of the envelope, on both sides or on the left or right side. By such containers of the known technique, the safety valve was described as additional element, without specifications on the positioning and the relevant efficiency. On the contrary as result of a conscious performed testing it was evident that the envelopes break (in case of incorrect use and therefore of increase of the internal pressure) always laterally. A valve placed on the bottom or on the top of the envelope is then not practically and significantly effective, because the lateral collapse of the seams occurs beforehand.

In the executions of the known technique, the valve was indicated as added/applied element to the reaction chamber; this is useless because the problem of a blowing up comes after the activation of the reaction chamber.

The safety valve can also perform the function of marker if suitably highlighted or coloured.

In this case it serves also to control the sorting for the sale and the transportation and for the delivery to the consumer and to allow him on one hand to differentiate the personal use and the handover to his family, mainly to his children, and on the other increasing the safety level for everybody, avoiding risks of burns and so on. According to the use and then to the conditions of basis temperature one is facing up to, one will choose which container to take with him and use. In this way one avoids that the envelopes can be mistaken. Furthermore, risks of burns are reduced as well as risks of insufficient heating because of too low external temperature with respect to the heating gap generated by the reaction chamber.

ENVELOPE MODELS

1. stand-up envelopes

2. standard envelopes, preferably for food

3. with different colour band according to the desired/optimum thermal gap and/or content the above distinction is not limiting and the characteristics of the various models are combinable each other.

- The Figures 14, 14a and 14b represent respectively the corresponding previous figures with end edges of the various pockets joined after the completion of the bottom loading of the reaction chamber, and container completed, in case of a container in its standard version. The supple thermal container 1 with incorporated internal thermal exchange through the lateral or bottom insertion of a reaction chamber 4 is shaped like double-pocket envelope or bag, one pocket 2 containing the consumer product 2", the other 3 containing the reaction chamber 4.

The pocket 3 intended to contain the reaction chamber 4 is built by folding a single sheet 3' introduced inside the sheet 2' building the pocket 2 of the consumer product 2" and airtight joined to it along the end edges of said sheets 2 ' , 3* .

It is a matter of a disposable handy dispenser for a consumer product, which needs heating or cooling.

This occurs, exploiting endothermic or exothermic reactions generated by pressure breaking of a calibrated bag 5 containing the reaction liquid 5", which consequently mix itself with the reagent substance 5" causing the desired endo/exothermic reaction.

The peculiarity of this idea is that thanks to the presence of the double pocket the reaction chamber 4 is fully isolated from the consumer product 2", which so can not be contaminated because of the interposition of the pocket 3 between the reaction chamber 4 and the pocket 2 containing the consumer product 2", generating a noticeable safety level dramatically increased with respect to the known containers of the previous type.

The container 1 is provided with a lateral arranged 1"' double-function valve 6, that means that it performs its function at the same time for the pocket 2 and the pocket 3 with the aim to control a possible excessive pressure generated by the chemical reaction into the reaction chamber 4, or an overheating of the consumer liquid into the pocket 2 with production of vapours and overpressures on the spout 7 and cap 8.

EXAMPLE 1 - STAND-UP Container

This particular preferred way of execution of the finding subject of this invention shows the superior characteristic to be able to stand like a bottle or carton and to remain upright avoiding the overflow of the consumer product even with open cap and consequent handling and consumption comfort .

The container 1 includes

- Pocket 2 for the consumer product built by the sheet 2 ' ;

- Consumer product 2";

- Pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber built by folding the sheet 3 ' ;

- Reaction chamber 4;

- Bag 5 containing the reaction liquid 5' with pre-set breaking zone 10 or 11;

- Reaction liquid 5';

- Chemical reagents 5" in form of pills, capsules or other;

- Cumulative overpressure safety valve 6 purposely serving as marker;

- Spout 7 with cap 8;

- Draft area or line 9 for tear opening of the container bag;

- Seam 1"' for tight sealing on top and along the lateral outline of the container;

- Sealing and supporting feet 1', 1" allowing the container to stand upright, built by folding the sheet 3' whose edges are joined to those of the sheet 2' of the container of the consumer product.

The container 1 in its stand-up version includes a pocket 2 containing the consumer liquid 2", housing inside an airtight pocket 3 containing in turn a deformable reaction chamber 4 provided with two compartment 5, 5', one 5 of whose with airtight walls with controlled collapse.

Said reaction chamber 4 is provided of an internal compartment with a reaction element, bag 5 with reaction liquid 5', with calibrated pressure breaking along its seams 10 or 11 according to their horizontal or vertical arrangement, and with a reagent element 5", chemical reaction product: the liquid 5' flows out when the operation is started and comes in contact with the reagent 5", which is in form of pastilles, tablets, capsules, wafers and similar, triggering the endo/exothermic reaction. Figures 1, la.

The reaction chamber 4 is introduced laterally into the pocket 3 to create an airtight barrier between reaction products from 5' and 5" and consumer product 2". Figures 2, 2a, 5.

The pocket 2 is built by joining (typically seaming) the outline edges 1', 1", 1"' of a sheet 2' . Figures 3, 5. The safety pocket 3, which contains the reaction chamber 4, is arranged interposed inside the pocket 2 containing the consumer product 2" and it is built by folding a sheet 3', so that it shows two strips of different length B and A" -A ¹ respectively; said pocket 3 being built by folding inside the pocket 2 at its point A" the long edge A"-A' of said sheet 3', which joins at its ends A', A to the end edges B, C of the sheet 2' building the pocket 2, respectively at A'-B and A-A"-C to build the pocket 3 and at the same time the stand-up container 1. Figures 6, 6a, 6b, 6c.

Joining in this way the said edges of the sheets 2' and 3', we obtain in the same way the supporting feet 1', 1" of the container 1 of the invention in the stand-up version. Figures 4, 5, 7.

Into the pocket 3 built in _^ this way the reaction chamber 4 is inserted, provided with the reaction means 5-5' (bag with reaction liquid) and 5" (reagent). Figures 4, (cross- section Figure 3), 5.

The dotted part on the edges and on the middle of the bag or bubble with liquid 5 of the reaction chamber 4 represents the seams with calibrated collapse. Figures 1, la, 2, 2a, 6, 7.

A safety valve 6, laterally arranged at about 1/3 - 1/4 of the height of the container 1, serves to avoid any breaking, burs, and violent outflow of the overpressure liquids or vapours and serves at the same time both pockets 2 and 3. Figures 1, la, 2, 2a, 3, 5, 7.

The safety valve 6 is absolutely positioned on the side of the envelope, that means where it is seamed 1"', preferably in a point situated approximately at the height of 1/2 of the pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber 4, that means at about 1/4 of the length of the external envelope, calculated starting from the basis of the envelope, on both sides or on the left or right side.

Finally the container 1 is also provided with a spout 7 applied flexibly on the top of the pocket 2 and covered by a closure cap 8 for the consumption of the inside contained product 2".

In fact, the neck of the spout 7 is not fully covered by the cap 8 because it is applied on the container in a flexible way.

The opening, from which the reaction chamber is then introduced, is shown in the front or perspective views. Figures 2, 2a, 5, 6, 7.

In the cross section IV-IV it can be seen how the pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber 4 is arranged on the side because it is just fixed on a single wall. Figure 3, 4.

Furthermore from the cross section it is clear that, contrary to the front views that could be misleading, because it could appear that on the side of the pocket 3 with the reaction chamber 4, inside the container 1, the pocket 2 containing the consumer product 2" should not be present; in fact the pocket' 2 is present on both sides like a normal envelope. Figure 4, 6a, 6c.

Always with reference to the stand-up version we specify that the pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber 4, on the side opposite to its seam to the internal wall of the container 1, that means to the internal wall 2' of the pocket 2 containing the consumer product 2", low, that means at the bottom of the container 1, shows one of its internal walls 3' of the sheet 3, building the pocket 3 for the reaction chamber 4, of longer length A"-A', which is folded and seamed on its folding point A" to itself together with its other wall A together with the wall C of the pocket 2, while the remaining longer part in excess A"- A' goes on building the arch bottom of the stand-up envelope, which is joined by seaming of its end edge A' on the other side to the external and internal wall B of the pocket 2 of the container 1, building a whole with the seam and building the arch bottom of the container 1, allowing meanwhile the lower edges 1', 1" to build its supporting basis which lets the whole container 1 stand upright when placed on a horizontal surface. Figures 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 7. The pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber 4 is then arranged on the side because is just fixed on an only wall. Figure 4, 6a, 6b, 6c.

It is also worth to highlight that the reaction chamber 4 can be arranged also upturned; in fact according to the type of consumer product or to other needs (in particular for the stand-up envelope where it is expected that the user activates it for the consumption and instead of holding it in hand, puts it on the table waiting for the completion of the thermal reaction and the subsequent stand-by consumption) ; the fact to have the reaction chamber in upturned position, that is with the liquid on the upper part which will go down by gravity on the chemical product at the time of the break of the separation barrier inside the reaction chamber, can further ease the contemporaneous and homogenous quicker diffusion of the liquid on the chemical product, effect which can be already obtained in itself shaking the container, as recommended in the directions for use and because of the pastilles have already the aim and the effect to favour said homogeneity and contemporaneity of generation and diffusion of the thermal effect. For what concerns the safety valve 6, its various functions and the use of the container we refer to what was said above .

EXAMPLE 2 - STANDARD container as envelope or bag It includes the following elements:

- Pocket 2 for the consumer product built by the sheet 2 ' ; - Consumer product 2";

- Pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber built by the sheet 3 ' ;

- Reaction chamber 4;

- Bag 5 containing the reaction liquid 5' with preset breaking zone 10 o 11;

- Reaction liquid 5';

- Chemical reagents 5" in form of pastilles, capsules or other;

- Cumulative overpressure safety valve 6, purposely serving also as marker;

- Spout 7 and cap 8 ;

- Draft area or line 9 for tear opening of the container bag;

- Airtight seam 1"' of the container; - Edges B-C and A-A ' respectively of the pockets of the consumer product and of the container of the reaction chamber, building first the opening for the introduction of the reaction chamber from bottom and then the seal for the subsequent closure.

By this execution of the standard envelope container which is preferably suitable for foods or other creamy or sticky products, alimentary or not, the reaction chamber is fixed (seamed, then double seaming point) on both the walls of the pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber 4. Figures 10, 12, (cross-section XI-XI Figure 11) , 13, 13a, 13b, and 14, 14a, 14b.

Purpose of the intermediate pocket 3 containing the reaction chamber 4 is not really to obtain interchangeable cartridges: that is the new aim is not to make an interposed envelope just to allow interchangeability/recharge, but mainly to avoid contact between consumer product and reaction chamber. Figures 8, 8a, 9, 9a.

As described in the Figures 8a, 9a, the reaction chamber 4 can be also arranged upturned, this is also possible for the standard container.

Also for the standard envelope container subject of this way of execution, the pocket 3 intended to house the reaction chamber 4 is built by folding a sheet 3 ' , whose edges A-A' go fist to join to the edges B-C of the sheet 2' building the pocket 2 of the consumer product and then to join all together with airtight closure B-A -- A'-C, after the reaction chamber 4 has been introduced from bottom and arranged. Figures 10, 12, (cross-section XI-XI Figure 11) , 13a, 13b, 14, 14a, 14b.

Also by this way of execution of the invention the container is provided with a double-function valve 6, that means that it performs its function at the same time for the pocket 2 and the pocket 3 with the aim to control a possible excessive pressure, generated by the chemical reaction in the reaction chamber 4, preventing its deflagration in case of incorrect use of the product or incorrect dosage of the chemical reagent. Figures 8, 8a, 9, 9a, 11.

It is interesting to note also in this version, that the secondary use of the valve 6 is that of refracting coloured marker replacing the various bands of different colour used according to the desired/optimum thermal gap or other coloured visual indicator to differentiate the heating power, so that to "customize" and make more effective and more safe the use according to the basis temperature. Intended utilization

The container of this invention is a supple, portable, handy and safe container and is suitable for a number of uses and applications, in particular as disposable dispenser of a consumer and/or necessity product, like soft drinks and drinkables, restoring, energy-giving, tonic, refreshing beverages and liquid foods for sport and free time; drinkable and liquid foods, sauces, creams and seasonings; baby foods, use as baby's bottle and dispensers by nourishing; cosmetics, body care applications, beauty, thermal and wellbeing treatments; ready-to-use medicine packets for drugs, therapeutics, adjuvant drugs, administrations of therapeutic preparations and alimentary integrators for the health; provisioning rations and sanitary equipment for the Army; products, provisioning and first-aid goods for the disaster intervention civil force and the humanitarian interventions; industrial and construction products (like adhesives, sealing means, putties, plasters, paints, compounds and so on) ; hobby and do-it-yourself products, 'needing a minimum or preset temperature for their application/use.

Furthermore, said container replaces the thermal envelope in the supermarkets being able to carry frozen goods for a certain time from the dealer to the consumer, for instance milk, drinks or other goods. Finally, said container is suitable for future applications for packaging for aerospace use: drinks, liquid and soluble foods, drinkable or sanitary water, creams, medicines and so on .

The finding subject of this invention represents a radical innovation in the field of the handy dispensers of "ready- to-carry, ready-to-use" preparations, both from the technical point of view for the introduced increased safety means and for the introduced revolutionary effects on the consumer habits and on the market.
