Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0078789A2] In a drink container (2) especially a bottle, a suction tube (4, 6, 10, 12), constructed in particular as a drinking straw, is arranged inside the filled, sealed drink container (2). The top end of the suction tube is arranged either in the container opening in such a way that it can be gripped and pulled out after the container (2) has been opened or the suction tube (6) is connected to a power store (8) which moves the top end (9) of the suction tube out of the container opening when the container (2) has been opened, or the suction tube (10, 12) receives a lifting force in the product (1) which guides its top end out of the container opening at the latest after the container (2) has been opened. In the case of a carbonated product, this lifting force is increased as a result of the pressure drop after opening due to the fact that bubbles (14) of gas acting as floating bodies rest on the surface of the suction tube or, if the suction tube consists of a porous plastic, it undergoes an expansion in volume. The suction tube can advantageously be introduced into the container before, at the same time as or even after the filling operation. <IMAGE>
