Description
- This application is a continuation of International Application No. PCT/AU2007/001163, filed Aug. 17, 2007, and entitled “Collapsible Container,” the entire contents of each of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
- The invention relates to a collapsible container such as a bowl, plate or mug.
- The following discussion of the background to the invention is intended to facilitate an understanding of the present invention. However, it should be appreciated that the discussion is not an acknowledgment or admission that any of the material referred to was published, known or part of the common general knowledge in any jurisdiction as at the priority date of the application.
- Collapsible bowls have commonly been made of a silicon-based material. While this provides the resilience and flexibility required to allow such bowls to be collapsible, these same attributes can result in the base of the bowl losing its structural shape. This impedes the stability of the container when being carried or handled, especially when the container is full. Furthermore, such materials are generally prone to damage when metal eating utensils are used to eat food served thereon.
- It is therefore an object of the present invention to alleviate or reduce, at least in part, the aforementioned problems.
- Throughout this document, unless otherwise indicated to the contrary, the terms “comprising”, “consisting of”, and the like, are to be construed as non-exhaustive, or in other words, as meaning “including, but not limited to”.
- In accordance with the present invention, there is a collapsible container comprising:
-
- a compressive wall; and
- a base having a retaining ring extending from at least a portion of its circumference;
- where, the base is made of a hardened material compared to the material making up the compressive wall and the compressive wall is adapted to be retained around the circumference of the base by way of the retaining ring.
- The base may be made of a material of a suitable hardness to allow handling and carrying of contents. In other arrangements, the base may be made of a material of a suitable hardness to allow eating utensils to be used thereon without damaging its structural integrity. Ideally, the base is made of a material of a suitable hardness to allow small knives to be used thereon without damaging its structural integrity. The compressive wall may be made from a silicon-derived material.
- The compressive wall preferably consists of a series of linked layers. In a preferred form, each linked layer has a shape substantially similar to a parallelogram in cross section. This allows the compressive wall to expand and collapse with ease.
- The retaining ring may have a plurality of apertures provided therein and the compressive wall is retained to the base by a plurality of retaining lugs extending therefrom being received on at least a one-to-one basis in the plurality of apertures. Alternatively, the retaining ring has a plurality of retaining lugs extending therefrom and the compressive wall is retained to the base by a receiving the plurality of retaining lugs in a plurality of apertures provided therein on at least a one-to-one basis. It is further preferred that the retaining ring extend around the complete circumference of the base.
- An overlaying layer may be applied to the retaining lugs, as received within the apertures, to provide additional strength to the join between base and compressive wall.
- A top strengthening ring is provided at the end of the compressive wall not connected to the base. Additional strengthening rings may be provided in the compressive wall between the base and the top strengthening ring. Such additional strengthening rings are preferably provided between pairs of linked layers.
- The top strengthening ring can be adapted to allow a lid to be connected thereto. A handle may also be incorporated to extend from the base to the top strengthening ring to facilitate carrying of the container. To retain compactness of the container, the handle is ideally adapted to be recessed into the base when not in use. To prevent loss of the handle, the handle may also be hingedly connected to the base.
- The collapsible wall may be arranged to expand in a manner that the diameter of each successive layer is smaller than that of its preceding layer the further the layer is from the base.
- The interior side of the collapsible wall can be labelled with a series of indicators and the volumetric capacity of the container at such indicators. As an additional feature, the container may also include feet made from a non-skid material.
- The invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 is an exploded isometric view of a collapsible bowl according to the present invention. -
FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the collapsible bowl shown inFIG. 1 in its collapsed state. -
FIG. 3 is a cut-away view of a portion of the collapsible bowl shown inFIG. 1 . - Specific embodiments of the present invention are now described in detail. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
- In accordance with a first embodiment of the invention there is a
collapsible bowl 10. Thecollapsible bowl 10 comprises abase 12 and acompressive wall 14. - The
base 12 is made from a nylon material to a hardness suitable for small knives to be used thereon without damaging the structural integrity of the base. Thebase 12 is circular. Protruding from the base is aretaining ring 17. Theretaining ring 17 has a plurality ofapertures 18 disposed about its circumference. - The
compressive wall 14 is frustoconical in its uncompressed state. In this uncompressed state, the diameter of one open end of thecompressive wall 14 is of substantially equal size to the diameter to thebase 12. Thecompressive wall 14 is made of a silicon-derived material. - The
compressive wall 14 consists of a series oflayers 20. Eachlayer 20 is shaped like a cross-sectional shape similar to a parallelogram as shown inFIG. 3 . Thelayers 20 are linked to each other. - The
layer 20 to which thebase 12 is to be attached has a series of retaining lugs 22 disposed about its circumference. Each retaining lug 22 is adapted to be received within anaperture 18. - To prevent disassociation of the
base 12 from thecompressive wall 14, an additional layer of silicon-based material overlays each retaining lug 22 received within anaperture 18. Thus, theretaining ring 17 is received within thefirst layer 20 in a tongue and groove configuration. - In use, the
collapsible bowl 10 is provided in its collapsed state as shown inFIG. 3 to facilitate easy storage. In this position, the side of the base 12 opposing thecollapsible wall 14 may be used as a chopping board. - To convert the
collapsible bowl 10 into a container,layer 20 d is gripped and pulled in the direction illustrated by arrow A inFIG. 1 . Pullinglayer 20 d in this direction causeslayer 20 c to rotate about its connection to layer 20 b in the direction indicated by arrow B due to that layers 20 c own connection to layer 20 d. This continues untillayers layers - This process can then be repeated for each
new layer 20 until thecompressible bowl 10 has reached its full uncompressed state or the user has uncompressed the bowl to their desired height. - To compress the
bowl 10, the user pushes onlayer 20 d of thecompressive wall 14 in a direction opposite to that shown by arrow A. Because of the offset connection betweenlayers 20 caused by their parallelogram shape, force applied in this direction forceslayer 20 d to rotate about its connection withlayer 20 c in the direction indicated by arrow C. This continues untillayer 20 d abutslayer 20 c.Layer 20 c can then be folded in to also abut layer 20 b, and so on, if the material has not already facilitated such abutment. - This continues until each all layers 20 have been compressed to form a substantially flat bowl.
- It should be appreciated by the person skilled in the art that the above invention is not limited to the embodiment described. In particular, the following modifications and improvements may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention:
-
- To provide the
collapsible bowl 10 with additional strength, thetop-most layer 20 of the collapsible bowl may be provided with a strengthening ring. The strengthening ring is designed to assist in preventing the silicon-based material of the top-most layer from collapsing on one side only. The strengthening ring may take the form of an embedded metal wire or ring made from the same material as thebase 12. Additionally, the strengthening ring may be adapted to allow a lid to be securely fitted thereover or otherwise connected thereto. - In a configuration where the strengthening ring allows for a lid to be connected thereto, the lid may contain a vent to allow heated air to escape therefrom. Alternatively, where the collapsible container is used to hold liquids, the lid may have a dispensing means, such as a sipper, provided therein to facilitate dispensing of the liquid.
- The collapsible bowl may be provided with additional strengthening rings. Such additional strengthening rings may assist in preventing the silicon-based material of intervening
layers 20 form collapsing on one side only. - The respective layers 20 of the collapsible bowl may be labelled on the interior wall with details of the volume capacity of the bowl at that
layer 20 in its uncompressed state. To elaborate, if thefirst layer 20 has a measurement capacity of 100 ml, if thebowl 10 is subsequently filled with a liquid to the level of the top of thefirst layer 20, the amount of liquid within thebowl 10 should equate to approximately 100 ml. - While the invention has been described in the context of a collapsible bowl, the same principles can be applied to form a collapsible plate and/or a collapsible mug or any other form of container.
- Where the present invention is modified to form a collapsible mug, it is preferred that a strengthening ring be provided in respect of the
top-most layer 20. The provision of the strengthening ring in the top-most layer then allows for a handle to be fitted to the mug. To ensure that the addition of the handle does not detract from the otherwise compact nature of the compressible mug, the handle may be recessed in thebase 12 of the mug. Ideally, the recessed handle may be hingedly connected to the base 12 such that rotation of the handle about the hinge essentially places the handle in a position to be connected to the top-most layer of the mug. - The concertinaed arrangement of the collapsible wall may be inverted such that in an uncompressed state, the diameter of each
layer 20 of thecompressive wall 14 so uncompressed decreases rather than increases as described above. This arrangement is particularly suited to liquid containers where the decreasing diameter provides additional containment of the liquid. - The base 12 may be provided with feet that extend from the opposing side to the
compressive wall 14. The feet may take the form of rubberised patches or protrusions made from a non-skid material. Alternatively, the feet may take the form of one portion of a hook and eye securing devices such as that made under the trade name Velcro™. - The retaining lug 22 and
aperture 18 arrangement described above may be reversed such that the retaining lugs 22 are provided in the retainingring 17 and theapertures 18 provided in thecompressive wall 14. - The base 12 may be made of any suitably hardened material relative to the
compressive wall 14. Ideally, the material is sufficiently hardened to allow eating utensils and/or knives to be used thereon without substantially affecting the structural integrity of thebase 12.
- To provide the
- Furthermore, the features described in the above embodiments and the additional features mentioned above may be combined to form yet additional embodiments that fall within the scope of the present invention.
