Description
Korpus mit integriertem Leuchtmittel zur Illuminierung eines Trinkhalms zur Anwendung bei Getränken Body with integrated bulb for illuminating a drinking straw for use with drinks
Ein Trinkhalm oder aufgrund des früheren, natürlichen Ursprungs A drinking straw or because of the earlier, natural origin
umgangssprachlich auch Strohhalm oder Röhrchen genannt, ist ein colloquially also called a straw or tube, is a
Hilfsmittel, mit dem sich Flüssigkeiten aufsaugen lassen, um diese zu trinken. Das Material, früher überwiegend Strohhalme, ist heute bei den A tool that absorbs fluids to drink them. The material, formerly mainly straws, is today at the
Einwegprodukten hauptsächlich dünnwandiger Kunststoff wie Polyethylen oder Polypropylen. Jedoch kann man Halme auch aus dickwandigen Disposable products mainly thin-walled plastic such as polyethylene or polypropylene. However, you can also stems from thick-walled
Kunststoffen, Edelstahl oder bruchfestem Glas erhalten, wobei letztere ein höheres Verletzungsrisiko bergen. Trinkhalme wurden schon von den Plastics, stainless steel or break-proof glass, the latter involve a higher risk of injury. Drinking straws were already from the
Sumerern gebraucht. Der moderne Trinkhalm wurde 1888 von Marvin C. Stone patentiert. Die Wegwerf artikel sind praktisch in jeder vorstellbaren Farbe und Länge sowie mit unterschiedlichsten Durchmessern zu erhalten. Auch diverse Verzierungen und Variationen, beispielsweise mit Used Sumerern. The modern drinking straw was patented in 1888 by Marvin C. Stone. The disposable items are available in practically every imaginable color and length as well as with different diameters. Also various ornaments and variations, for example with
Leuchtstoffen, sind für den Partybedarf zu finden. Bei der Formgebung sind der Phantasie kaum Grenzen gesetzt (Knoten, Spiralen, Wellen etc.). Die Massenprodukte haben jedoch meist eine gerade, starre Form oder sind im oberen Bereich zum Abknicken, dann nennt man sie Flexhalme. Am unteren Ende werden die Halme entweder mit geradem Abschluss oder schräg
abgeschnitten hergestellt, so dass eine Spitze gebildet wird, mit der man an vorgegebener Stelle einen Getränkekarton durchstoßen kann. Phosphors are to be found for the party supplies. When it comes to shaping, there are hardly any limits to the imagination (knots, spirals, waves, etc.). The mass products, however, usually have a straight, rigid shape or are in the upper part to kinking, then they are called Flexhalme. At the lower end, the stems are either straight or oblique made cut off, so that a tip is formed, with which one can pierce at a predetermined location a beverage carton.
Aus dem Stand der Technik sind„selbstleuchtende Trinkhalme" aus der EP 10 703 357 A2 bekannt. Diese Ausführung geht in erster Linie von einer Lösung eines doppelwandigen Trinkhalms aus. In der Zwischenwand befindet sich ein chemisches Leuchtmittel, das mittels Chemolumineszenz zum Leuchten gebracht werden kann. Auch das Patent US 59 31 383 A beruft sich auf das Prinzip der Chemolumineszenz. Auf dem Markt befindliche Systeme funktionieren vorwiegend nach diesem Prinzip. "Self-luminous drinking straws" are known from the prior art in EP 10 703 357 A2 This embodiment is primarily based on a solution of a double-walled drinking straw. <br /> <br /> In the intermediate wall is a chemical light source which can be illuminated by means of chemiluminescence The patent US 59 31 383 A also refers to the principle of chemiluminescence: Systems on the market function predominantly according to this principle.
Nachteilig ist hierbei, dass die Produktionskosten für den Trinkhalm durch die Ausbildung einer Zwischenwand und das Einfüllen einer Chemolumineszenz stark erhöht werden, der Trinkhalm selbst aber weiterhin ein Wegwerf artikel bleibt. Darüber hinaus muss sichergestellt werden, dass der Farbstoff innerhalb der Zwischenwand verbleibt und nicht ungewollt vom Verbraucher mitkonsumiert wird. The disadvantage here is that the production costs for the drinking straw are greatly increased by the formation of an intermediate wall and the filling of a chemiluminescence, the straw itself remains a disposable item remains. In addition, it must be ensured that the dye remains within the partition and is not inadvertently consumed by the consumer.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine wiederverwendbare Vorrichtung zu konzipieren, mit deren Hilfe handelsübliche Trinkhalme illuminiert werden können. The object of the invention is to design a reusable device with the help of commercial drinking straws can be illuminated.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung wird dabei gelöst durch einen Korpus mit einem Leuchtmittel zur Illuminierung eines Trinkhalms zur Anwendung bei The object of the invention is achieved by a body with a light source for illuminating a drinking straw for use in
Getränken, wobei der Korpus eine Leuchtdiode enthält. Weiterhin wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch die nebengeordneten Patentansprüche 10 und 12. Beverages, the body containing a light emitting diode. Furthermore, this object is achieved by the independent claims 10 and 12th
Hierdurch wird es möglich, sowohl den Trinkhalm als auch das Getränk selber zu beleuchten. Dabei ist es insbesondere vorgesehen, dass der Korpus in den Trinkhalm einführbar ist. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass jeder
handelsübliche Trinkhalm im Nachhinein durch das Einführen des gesondert vom Trinkhalm ausgeführten externen Korpus beleuchtet und bei Bedarf oder nach Gebrauch wieder aus dem Trinkhalm herausgeführt werden kann. Der Korpus ist folglich wiederverwendbar. Der Korpus kann dabei Leuchtdioden mit unterschiedlicher Wellenlänge und Intensität umfassen. Weiterhin kann der Korpus jede mögliche Geometrie aufweisen, wobei es besonders vorteilhaft ist, dass der Korpus eine zylindrische Form aufweist, also auf die gängige Form des Trinkhalms angepasst ist. This makes it possible to illuminate both the straw and the drink itself. It is provided in particular that the body can be inserted into the drinking straw. This ensures that everyone commercially available drinking straw afterwards illuminated by the introduction of the external body running separately from the drinking straw and can be led out of the drinking straw again as needed or after use. The body is therefore reusable. The body may comprise light emitting diodes of different wavelength and intensity. Furthermore, the body may have any possible geometry, wherein it is particularly advantageous that the body has a cylindrical shape, that is adapted to the common shape of the drinking straw.
Im Rahmen der Erfindung ist es vorgesehen, dass der Korpus, welcher das Leuchtmittel enthält, einen Spalt mit dem Trinkhalm bildet, den Flüssigkeiten leicht beim Ansaugen an seinem dem Getränk abgewandten Ende passieren können. Mit anderen Worten ist zwischen dem Korpus und der Innenwand des Trinkhalms ein Spalt ausgebildet, durch den die Flüssigkeit des Getränks in Richtung des Konsumenten gesaugt werden kann. Somit beeinträchtigt der Korpus das Trinkverhalten nicht. Vielmehr dient der Korpus dazu, den Trinkhalm und die Flüssigkeit des Getränks zu illuminieren, um damit einen optischen Effekt zu erzielen. In the context of the invention, it is provided that the body, which contains the lighting means, forms a gap with the drinking straw, the liquids can easily pass when sucking at its end remote from the beverage. In other words, a gap is formed between the body and the inner wall of the drinking straw, through which the liquid of the beverage can be sucked in the direction of the consumer. Thus, the body does not affect the drinking behavior. Rather, the body serves to illuminate the straw and the liquid of the drink in order to achieve an optical effect.
Das Leuchtmittel kann vorzugsweise aus einer Leuchtdiode bestehen, welche sich in einem ferromagnetischen Korpus befindet bzw. selber magnetisch ist. Um die Positionierung des Leuchtkörpers zu gewährleisten wird in einer vorteilhaften Ausführung eine magnetische bzw. The light-emitting means may preferably consist of a light-emitting diode which is located in a ferromagnetic body or is itself magnetic. In order to ensure the positioning of the luminous element is in an advantageous embodiment, a magnetic or
ferromagnetische Hülse über den Trinkhalm gestülpt. Durch Verschieben der Hülse über den Trinkhalm folgt aufgrund der magnetischen Wirkung der Leuchtkörper der Hülse. Somit ist eine freie Positionierung des Ferromagnetic sleeve placed over the drinking straw. By moving the sleeve over the straw is due to the magnetic effect of the luminous body of the sleeve. Thus, a free positioning of the
Leuchtkörpers über die gesamte Länge des Trinkhalms möglich.
Um den Korpus in der Position innerhalb des Trinkhalms zu halten oder entlang des Trinkhalms verschieben zu können, ist in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Korpus aus einem ferromagnetischen Material gebildet oder ist in einer alternativen Ausführungsform die Leuchtdiode aus einem ferromagnetischen Material gebildet. Darüber hinaus ist dem Korpus ein magnetisches Element zugeordnet. Dies kann in einer besonders Illuminant over the entire length of the drinking straw possible. In order to be able to hold the body in the position within the drinking straw or to be able to displace it along the drinking straw, in a preferred embodiment the body is formed from a ferromagnetic material or in an alternative embodiment the light emitting diode is formed from a ferromagnetic material. In addition, the body is associated with a magnetic element. This can be special
bevorzugten Ausführungsform als eine magnetische Hülse gebildet sein, die über den Trinkhalm führbar ist und die Position des Korpus innerhalb des Trinkhalms über eine magnetische Kraft fixiert. Die magnetische Hülse kann dabei auch Hülsen-ähnlich gebildet sein, oder eine von einer Hülse abweichende Form und Geometrie aufweisen. So ist bei einer weiteren Ausführungsform vorgesehen, dass der Korpus durch eine oder mehrere kleine Knopfmagnete positionierbar ist, welche an der Außenhülle des Trinkhalms angebracht (z. B. aufgeklebt) sind. Im Rahmen der Erfindung ist es vorgesehen, dass der Korpus eine interne Energiequelle aufweist, die die Leuchtdiode mit Strom versorgt. preferred embodiment may be formed as a magnetic sleeve, which is feasible on the drinking straw and fixes the position of the body within the drinking straw via a magnetic force. The magnetic sleeve can also be formed sleeve-like, or have a deviating from a sleeve shape and geometry. Thus, in a further embodiment it is provided that the body can be positioned by one or more small button magnets, which are attached to the outer shell of the drinking straw (eg glued on). In the context of the invention, it is provided that the body has an internal power source, which supplies the LED with power.
In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist dem Korpus ein Reed- Kontakt als Schalter zugeordnet. Dieser dient dem Anschalten und In a particularly preferred embodiment, the body is associated with a reed contact as a switch. This serves to turn on and
Ausschalten des Leuchtmittels. Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung an einem in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel näher erläutert; es zeigt: Turn off the bulb. In the following the invention will be explained in more detail in an embodiment shown in the drawing; it shows:
Fig. 1 einen Längsschnitt des erfindungsgemäßen Korpus in einem Trinkhalm.
In Fig. 1 ist der Längsschnitt des erfindungsgemäßen Korpus 1 gezeigt, welcher in einen handelsüblichen Trinkhalm 2 eingeführt ist. Dabei ist der Durchmesser des Korpus 1 so bemessen, dass zwischen der Innenwand des Trinkhalms 2 und der Außenwand des Korpus 1 ein Spalt 6 ausgebildet ist, den die Flüssigkeit passieren kann und durch den die Flüssigkeit nach oben in Richtung des Konsumenten gesaugt werden kann. Der Korpus 1 umfasst ein Leuchtmittel 3, welches als eine Leuchtdiode gebildet ist. Zur Versorgung der Leuchtdiode mit dem notwendigen Strom ist im Korpus 1 eine Fig. 1 is a longitudinal section of the body according to the invention in a drinking straw. In Fig. 1 the longitudinal section of the body 1 according to the invention is shown, which is introduced into a commercial drinking straw 2. In this case, the diameter of the body 1 is dimensioned such that between the inner wall of the drinking straw 2 and the outer wall of the body 1, a gap 6 is formed, which can pass through the liquid and through which the liquid can be sucked upwards in the direction of the consumer. The body 1 comprises a lighting means 3, which is formed as a light-emitting diode. To supply the LED with the necessary power is in the body 1 a
Energiequelle 4 angeordnet. Der Korpus 1 ist vorliegend aus einem ferromagnetischen Material gebildet. Um die Position des Korpus 1 innerhalb des Trinkhalms 2 zu fixieren, ist dem Korpus 1 eine magnetische Hülse 5 zugeordnet. Der Korpus liegt dabei in radialer Richtung des Trinkhalms 2 zentral bzw. mittig. Die Wandungen des Trinkhalms 2 (Innenwandung und Außenwandung) und die Wandungen der Hülse 5 (Hülseninnenwandung und Hülsenaußenwandung) sind im Power source 4 is arranged. The body 1 is presently formed from a ferromagnetic material. In order to fix the position of the body 1 within the drinking straw 2, the body 1 is associated with a magnetic sleeve 5. The body lies in the radial direction of the drinking straw 2 centrally or centrally. The walls of the drinking straw 2 (inner wall and outer wall) and the walls of the sleeve 5 (sleeve inner wall and sleeve outer wall) are in
Wesentlichen konzentrisch zum Korpus 1 angeordnet. Die Hülse 4 kann über den Trinkhalm 2 geführt werden und hält so über die magnetische Essentially arranged concentrically to the body 1. The sleeve 4 can be guided over the drinking straw 2 and thus holds over the magnetic
Anziehungskraft den ferromagnetischen Korpus 1 an der gewünschten Position. Die Hülse 5 selbst ist vorzugsweise derart bemessen, dass diese, genauer ihre Hülseninnenwandung einen Reibschluss mit der Wandung bzw. Attraction force the ferromagnetic body 1 at the desired position. The sleeve 5 itself is preferably dimensioned such that these, more precisely their sleeve inner wall a frictional engagement with the wall or
Außenwandung des Trinkhalms 2 ausbildet. Der Reibschluss ist dabei so stark, dass der Benutzer aber dennoch die Hülse 5 entlang des Trinkhalms 2 verschieben kann. Durch Verschieben der Hülse 5 entlang der Außenwand des Trinkhalms 2, kann auch der Korpus 1 innerhalb des Trinkhalms 2 verschoben werden, der mit anderen Worten durch die zwischen ihm und der Hülse 5 wirkenden magnetische Kraft, von der Hülse 5 mitgeführt wird. Auf
diese Art kann der Korpus 1 nach dem Gebrauch auch leicht aus dem Trinkhalm 2 entfernt und wieder verwendet werden. Outside wall of the drinking straw 2 forms. The frictional engagement is so strong that the user can still move the sleeve 5 along the drinking straw 2. By moving the sleeve 5 along the outer wall of the drinking straw 2, and the body 1 can be moved within the drinking straw 2, which is in other words by the force acting between it and the sleeve 5 magnetic force, carried by the sleeve 5. On This type, the body 1 can also be easily removed from the drinking straw 2 and used again after use.
Darüber hinaus umfasst der Korpus 1 einen in Fig. 1 nicht näher In addition, the body 1 includes a not closer in Fig. 1
dargestellten Reed-Kontakt, der als Schalter zur Aktivierung und illustrated reed contact, which serves as a switch for activation and
Deaktivierung der Leuchtdiode dient. Durch das zwischen der Hülse 5 und dem Korpus 1 aufgebaute magnetische Feld, wird der Schalter des Reed- Kontakts aktiviert und die Leuchtdiode angeschaltet. Der Schalter des Reed- Kontakts wird aktiviert, sobald sich die Hülse 5 in der Nähe des Korpus 1 befindet und dadurch ein entsprechend großes Magnetfeld aufgebaut ist. Vorliegend wird der Reed-Kontakt aktiviert, sobald Korpus 1 in die Hülse 5 eingeschoben und durch die magnetische Kraft in Position gehalten ist. Deactivation of the LED is used. Due to the magnetic field built up between the sleeve 5 and the body 1, the switch of the reed contact is activated and the light-emitting diode is switched on. The switch of the reed contact is activated when the sleeve 5 is in the vicinity of the body 1 and thereby a correspondingly large magnetic field is established. In the present case, the reed contact is activated as soon as the body 1 is inserted into the sleeve 5 and held in position by the magnetic force.
Die Leuchtdiode beleuchtet dann den Trinkhalm 2 und das Getränk. Durch das Entfernen der Hülse 5 vom Trinkhalm 2 wird das Magnetfeld abgebaut und der Schalter des Reed-Kontakts wiederum deaktiviert, wodurch die Leuchtdiode ausgeschaltet wird.
The LED then lights the drinking straw 2 and the drink. By removing the sleeve 5 from the drinking straw 2, the magnetic field is reduced and the switch of the reed contact in turn deactivated, whereby the LED is turned off.
