Abstract

It consists of a hollow main body (10), composed preferably of a cover (50) attached to a tubular piece (60) containing the food (20), which is supplemented at its open lower end with thrust means (30), which consist of a plunger (80) assisted by a rod (70) that actuates snugly in the interior of said main body (10), determining the issue of said food (20) for its gradual consumption in a metered fashion, as this food (20) passes through multiple holes (40), provided in the closed upper end of the pack, being dispensed in portions of number, size and shapes defined by the holes (40). The pack also has a plunger (2,2′) associated with thrust means (3,3′) and the viscous food issues laterally by way of holes. Particularly applicable to the dispensing of ice creams, with a secure reliable seal, the pack proposed offers a system of consumption that is not only clean but also fun.

Description

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention has its application in the industry engaged in the manufacture of packs for viscous foods, particularly such creamy or viscous products as ice creams or sweets. [0002] An object of the invention is that the pack should be tubular and elongated, that it should have thrust means on at least one of its smaller sides that exert pressure on the food for the purpose of its extrusion by way of holes arranged in the larger face or faces of the pack. [0003] The invention advocated refers to a dispenser pack for food products, mainly ice creams, of the type made up of a functional combination of a tubular body that holds its interior a mass of ice cream or other food of a similar texture, plus thrust means at its lower open end, so that, when pressure is exerted at discretion in a longitudinal direction of the tubular body, the food issues progressively from the pack for its consumption, said pack being provided with a plurality of holes in...
