AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The disclosed pouch is designed to transport and store wine while preventing damage due to oxidation. It is made of a tough but flexible material and has an opaque nature to prevent light damage. The lack of mechanical connectors, such as spouts, prevents the infiltration of oxygen or the leakage of purge gas. The pouch is designed to provide better quality sealing than other options on the market.

Problems solved by technology

If not, exposure to oxygen causes significant damage to the taste and character of the wine.
Although wine bottles are an old technology, a wine bottle can properly preserve wine for long periods of time.
But such storage requirements are often impractical.
Wine cellars are expensive, and glass bottles are difficult and heavy to safely transport.

Embodiment Construction

[0041]Reference will now be made in detail to the presently preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Throughout the following detailed description, the same reference numerals refer to the same elements in all figures.

[0042]Referring to FIG. 1, an embodiment of the Pouch for Storage and Preservation of Wine, or Pouch 1, will be described. The pouch 1 is comprised of at least three sheets of material. One sheet forms the front 20, another sheet the back 21, and a third sheet the bottom 22, the bottom 22 at the distal portion of the pouch. The front 20 is fused to the back 21 at the top 2 and the sides 3. The front 20 and back 21 are fused to the bottom 22 along the base edge 4. Fusing can be performed by heat, adhesive, or mechanical means. The result is that the pouch 1, while being made of flexible materials, is free-standing.

[0043]But the pouch 1 remains flexible enough for close-packing in its shipping container, mini...

Abstract

A system for the storage and preservation of wine using a pouch is disclosed. The combination of pouch materials and method of packaging results in a product with an extended shelf-life. The compact and efficient nature of the packing reduces the cost and weight of packaging materials, reducing weight and lowering cost. The laser-scored removable corner allows for easy-opening without worry of spillage.

Description

FIELD[0001]This invention relates to the field of wine preservation and more particularly to a device that safely stores wine for an extended period of time.BACKGROUND[0002]Time, light, and oxygen are enemies of wine. It is common knowledge that a bottle of wine, once opened, must be consumed within a day or two. If not, exposure to oxygen causes significant damage to the taste and character of the wine.[0003]Although wine bottles are an old technology, a wine bottle can properly preserve wine for long periods of time. Proper care is required of wine bottles, including periodic rotation of the bottles, maintenance of proper temperature, and protection from exposure to light. With such care bottled wine can last many years.[0004]But such storage requirements are often impractical. Wine cellars are expensive, and glass bottles are difficult and heavy to safely transport.[0005]What is needed is a device that allows wine to be easily transported and stored, while still preventing damage...
