Abstract

The invention relates to a device enabled for carrying beverage cans, comprising a body of a laminar nature and with a symmetrical rectangular geometry, having on its surface at least one pair of incisions without mutual contact defining along their path a plurality of tabs with a folding or bending capacity in relation to the body itself, such that the proportions and the geometry of the incisions are suitable for the tight insertion into each pair of incisions of the upper base or mouth of a beverage can; the body furthermore has added cuts arranged transverse and perpendicular to an axis of symmetry of the same body and arranged between the pairs of incisions.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A device enabled for carrying beverage cans, characterised in that it comprises a body ( 1 ) of a laminar nature and with a symmetrical rectangular geometry, having on its surface at least one pair ( 2 ) of incisions ( 21 ) without mutual contact defining along their path a plurality of tabs ( 22 ) with a folding or bending capacity in relation to the body ( 1 ) itself, such that the proportions and the geometry of the incisions ( 21 ) are suitable for the tight insertion into each pair ( 2 ) of incisions ( 21 ) of the upper base or mouth of a beverage can ( 3 ); the body ( 1 ) furthermore has added cuts ( 4 ) arranged transverse and perpendicular to an axis of symmetry of the same body ( 1 ) and arranged between the pairs ( 2 ) of incisions. 
     
     
         2 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the incisions ( 21 ) have a semi-circumferential, arcuate or crescent geometry. 
     
     
         3 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that the geometry of the incisions ( 21 ) defines a concavity. 
     
     
         4 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to  claim 3 , characterised in that the tabs ( 22 ) are extended towards the concave side of each incision ( 21 ). 
     
     
         5 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that the incisions ( 21 ) of each pair ( 2 ) have a mutual symmetrical arrangement. 
     
     
         6 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that the tabs ( 22 ) defined by each incision ( 21 ) are arranged adjacent to others and without spaces between them. 
     
     
         7 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that there are three tabs ( 22 ) defined in each incision ( 21 ) of each pair ( 2 ). 
     
     
         8 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of  claims 2  to  6 , characterised in that there are two tabs ( 22 ) defined in each incision ( 21 ) of each pair ( 2 ). 
     
     
         9 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of  claims 2  to  6 , characterised in that there are four tabs ( 22 ) defined in each incision ( 21 ) of each pair ( 2 ). 
     
     
         10 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that the tabs ( 22 ) in turn have an incision ( 23 ) in their region of contact with the body ( 1 ) itself. 
     
     
         11 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that the tabs ( 22 ) cover a central circular sector of 70° in each incision ( 21 ). 
     
     
         12 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that the body ( 1 ) has a bending line ( 20 ) from the end of at least one incision ( 21 ) closest to the edge of the body ( 1 ), and said bending line ( 20 ) directed towards the same closest edge of the same body ( 1 ). 
     
     
         13 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to  claim 12 , characterised in that the other end of the same incision ( 21 ) has another bending line symmetrical with the other bending line ( 20 ) of the same incision ( 21 ). 
     
     
         14 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to  claim 12  or  13 , characterised in that the bending line ( 20 ) coming from the end of the incision closest to an edge of the body ( 1 ) is perpendicular to said edge of the body ( 1 ) and furthermore ends at said edge. 
     
     
         15 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the body ( 1 ) has six pairs ( 2 ) of incisions ( 21 ), the pairs ( 2 ) of incisions ( 21 ) being arranged symmetrically and regularly in two groups of three on each side of the axis of symmetry of the body ( 1 ) which is parallel to its larger side. 
     
     
         16 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to any of the preceding claims, characterised in that the body ( 1 ) incorporates manual gripping means. 
     
     
         17 . The device enabled for carrying beverage cans according to  claim 16  when it depends on  claims 1  and  14 , characterised in that the gripping means comprise an extension ( 11 ) of a side edge of the body ( 1 ) attached to the same body ( 1 ) by a bending line ( 111 ), and having at least one through opening ( 12 ) enabled for fingers to pass through same, and the other bending lines ( 20 ) of at least one pair ( 2 ) of incisions ( 21 ) ending at the bending line ( 111 ).
