Abstract

The invention relates to the structural design of plugs which are mainly used for closing alcoholic beverages. The inventive bottle plug comprises a bottom-open hollow body (1), a top end surface (2) provided with a detachable element (3), a drain bush (5) which communicates with the internal surface of the body (1), is axially arranged with said detachable element (3) and comprises top (9) and lower (10) sockets, wherein the top socket is provided with a baffle and the top external part of the drain bush (5) is provided with a screw joint which connects it to a lock bushing (7), the end socket (18) of which embraces from outside the end of the top socket (9) of the drain bush (5) and contains a baffle, which is embodied in the form of a capsule (11), the walls (12) of which are made of a transparent flexible and elastic material and the internal cavity of which comprises an electric circuit, wherein the top surface of the capsule (11) is brought into contact with the socket (18) of the lock bushing (5) which comprises a collar (19) on the side of the capsule (11).

Abstract

The invention relates to the structural design for plugs which are used for closing bottles, for example bottles containing alcoholic beverages, and can be used in the form of a valve or the separate plug element. The inventive plug capsule comprises a transparent body (1) shaped in the form of a three-dimensional geometric configuration, the horizontal cross-section of which is circle-shaped and the vertical cross-section of which is greater than the horizontal cross-section. The body (1) is provided with a cavity (2) which is embodied in the middle part thereof and comprises an electric circuit consisting of an electric device (3), a powersupply (4) and an electric key. The electric device (3) can be embodied in the form a light radiation source, for example a light-transmitting diode or a chip generating a sonic signal or in the form of the combination thereof. The electric key can be embodied in the form of a key consisting of a segment (5) of the electric circuit and a displaceable element (6) in the form of a ball provided with an electrically conductive surface or in the form of any other structure which closes and opens the electric circuit when the body (1) changes the position with respect to a vertical or horizontal axis according to the key position.
