Description

Packing device with light enclosed system
The field of the invention
The present invention relates to a kind of packing device, it comprises a container and a measuring cup that is fit to be used as closure member.Improvement of the present invention has realized the obvious saving of manufacturing materials, has kept all common features of similar packing device simultaneously, such as, to the tight seal of liquid with from suction performance.
Background of the present invention
The packing device that comprises a container and a dosage block is well-known in prior art.This container can receiving fluids material or particulate matter.The dosage block is a measuring cup, and it also is suitable for being used as bounded system.Can measure the dosage of certain material of being held with described dosage block, and removably this container be sealed.Since in light weight and reduced the cost of manufacturing materials and processing, so light-duty packing device suits the requirements.An object of the present invention is to provide a kind of packing device, it has realized the obvious saving of material when making described packing device.
A problem relevant with these packing devices is; material can be by block on the unrestrained container when installing to described dosage block on the container again with the back; this may cause the material that is held that bounded system (such as screw thread) is made dirty; and make closure member and container dirt along the drippage of container; very sliding, and be difficult to use.
In order to address this problem, multiple solution has been proposed.EP-B-0 369 560 has described a kind of assembly, and wherein the measuring cup that is screwed in described container neck outside with screw thread has a skirt section to be stretched in the pour spout body, and it has protected the screw thread of described measuring cup.EP-A-0 417 954 has realized further improvement, and wherein back the chute of discharging is the part of the body of container.Described chute must form by the part of the neck of this container is overturn after the blowing process.
Other solution is disclosed in US-4 696 416 and US-4 981 239.The dosage block has a securing device that forms at its outside face, and this device is suitable for closely being sealed on the inside face of a ring that is fixed in vessel port.This means the screw thread that no longer needs other skirt section to protect described dosage block in this case, although still need a middleware that container and dosage block are coupled together.
In all above-mentioned solutions, all restriction is not proposed for the quantity of needed packing.On the contrary, solve unrestrained problem by special tapping equipment back and increased more packing.Such as hereinafter description, the way of the neck the inside of the present invention by dosage block directly being inserted into container has reduced essential packing.
(this packing device needs the washer solvent of dosimetry such as liquid and/or particle in order to save the material that is used for making a packing device, soften flux, bleaching agent, or similar substance) be that described packing device includes only two parts better: a container and a dosage block, and do not carry the transition piece that refluxes.Particularly, because same reason, it is better avoiding the chute that back discharges of neck formation at container.
Now we know these purposes can by the dosage cap portion be inserted in the neck of container and realize.This is inserted into part and is protected by the neck of container, compares and does not need identical intensity with the remainder in not being inserted into described neck.However, save, must consider minimum qualifications in order to determine the actv. material.
The weight of the quantity of packing or dosage block is mainly by the mass density of manufacturing materials and the wall thickness decision of described dosage block.Wall thickness has determined the last intensity and the stability of described block.Intensity and stability are the important characteristics that reusable dosage is blocked a shot, because open repeatedly this block of grasping of container, consider that particularly most of commercial containers can fill once more.

Summary of the invention
The present invention is a kind of packing device that comprises a container and a dosage block, and described block comprises a top and a circumferential side wall.The sidewall of described block has two kinds of different thickness, and the part that the wall of described block is thin is mounted in the neck of described container, thereby realizes the sealing closely to liquid.
Detailed description of the present invention
Fig. 1 shows the top of the packing device that is closed in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and this device is applicable to dress liquid substance or particulate matter, and analogue.Best, this container (10) is provided with a handle (not shown), and this handle and integral container molding form, and a grabbing device is provided, so that grasping and the content that carries this container (10) and topple over it.Container (10) has a closure member that removably connects (20), is used for preventing that neglectful content unrestrained or container (10) from becoming stale.Closure member (20) also can be used as a measuring cup, to guarantee to topple over the liquid that institute's requested number.Closure member (20) with among the neck (12) that the mode of fluid tight seal is directly installed to container (10).
Fig. 2 is the cross sectional side view of Fig. 1, shows the different-thickness of the circle wall of described dosage block (20).The thickness of described wall is defined in the inside face of wall and the minor increment between the outside face.The part (26) that wall approaches is just in time below external flange (22).Described thin part (26) is assembled in the neck (12) of container (10) at its detent position.Because the neck (12) of container (10) gets up described thin part (26) whole protecting of block (20), less intensity and stability can be arranged so described part (26) is compared with the other parts of dosage block (20).As previously explained, because only need less intensity and stability, so the wall of part (26) can be thinner than remainder.
The part that wall is thicker (28) begins to stretch upwards from external flange (22).This part (28) of described dosage block (20) remains on the outside of neck (12).This part (28) needs maintenance certain stability and intensity, because in order to take off on (20) neck (12) by container (10) that described dosage is blocked a shot, described part (28) must be by grasping securely.This operation must be able to be carried out repeatedly.
Another advantage of packing device of the present invention is can not trickle down, this be dosage is blocked a shot (20) partly be inserted into direct result in the neck (12) of container (10).Clearly, automatically flowed back to by the remainder branch of the material of dosage or fall back in the container.These chute or other parts that just do not need any discharging are back carried back any remainder by the material of dosage in the container.As previously mentioned, also reduced the quantity of the required packing of this packing device without any need for the special device of discharging back.Compare with the packing device of prior art, this has saved material significantly.
Dosage block (20) can have two bevelled parts: exterior flange (22) and groove (24).Groove (24) on the outside face of the part (26) of dosage block (20) is assembled on the same bevelled inner flange (14) just.This inner flange (14) is fabricated on the inside face of neck (12) of container (10), and it has the shape identical with groove 24, in order that obtain the tight seal to liquid.
As shown in Figure 3, dosage block (30) also can have two external flanges (22) and (32).Now flange (32) is mounted in the groove (34) on the inside face of neck (12).Any skilled person in present technique field can change the number and the shape of groove (24) or flange (32) and corresponding external flange (14) and groove (34).
The neck (12) of container (10) not only is used for bounded system, and can be used as the pour spout of container of the present invention.
Refer again to Fig. 2, have only when the lip (29) of neck (12) has identical inclination with the external flange (22) of block (20), could be assembled to block (20) in the neck (12).This inclination is determined by angle [alpha].This angle [alpha] is the angle between the parallel lines of the lip of container (10) the determined plane of its supporting base and neck (12) when being in position vertically upward or external flange (22).Therefore, this angle [alpha] all must equate all the time for the lip (29) of external flange (22) and neck (12), in order that obtain the tight seal to liquid.
Fig. 4 schematically shows some features, and these features have further been improved the fluid tightness that can be used for all embodiment.Compare new neck that is characterized as container (10) (12) and the flange (8) between the loop portions (9) with Fig. 2.Described flange (8) is around the inner zone (7) that forms of neck (12).Described zone (7) is bevelled in Fig. 4, but it also can be flat.Correspondingly, the lip (27) of dosage block (90) has identical inclination with zone (7).The lip (27) of dosage block (90) and zone (7) direct contact have guaranteed that the fluid tightness of dosage block (90) improves.
So far described inclination mode is the preferred embodiments of the present invention, because the described inclination of the lip (29) of neck (12) helps block (20) is separated with container (10).According to this, can be with respect to neck (12) rotation block (20); Maximum 1/4 circles just are enough to force flange and groove to be thrown off.Also have, the inclination of the lip (29) of neck (12) helps the pour spout of neck (12) material that is held is poured out in the dosage block (20) by container.
Yet, at dosage block (20; 30) with between the above-mentioned neck (12) also can use other forms of parts, but different angles be arranged each other at them with the formation bounded system with identical performance.A kind of possibility is that the lip (29) of external flange (22) and neck tilts with angle [alpha], and groove (24) and corresponding inner flange (14) tilt with another diverse angle beta, as shown in Figure 5.Angle beta is the angle between the parallel lines of container (10) the determined plane of its supporting base and groove (24) or inner flange (14) when being in position vertically upward.This comprises the following possibility of angle:
a)α=0,β=0;
b)α=0,β=0;
c)α=β=0。
By a) institute schematically the possibility of description be shown in Fig. 6.The external flange (22) on dosage block (50) and the lip (29) of neck (12) do not tilt, and the situation of groove (24) and inner flange (14) is then opposite.The latter's inclination is determined by β.Possibility b) be shown in Fig. 7, a) just in time opposite with situation: groove (24) and inner flange (14) do not tilt, and the lip (29) of external flange (22) and neck (12) has the inclination at a α angle.C) represented possibility is the bevelled form that do not have fully of the present invention, and it is shown in Fig. 8.
Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in Fig. 9, and it and Fig. 2 are similar, and difference only is that the lip (27) of dosage block (110) also tilts with an angle γ.This angle γ is the angle between the parallel lines of container (10) lip of the determined plane of its supporting base and dosage block (110) when being in position vertically upward.The inclination of lip (27) helps the material of dosage is poured out.In all above-mentioned figure, schematically show the difference of thickness of the circle wall of dosage block.
The thickness of the wall of dosage block of the present invention can thickly reach 1.2 millimeters, and preferably 0.6 millimeter is 0.1 millimeter to 0.3 millimeter for the most desirable thickness of the thin-walled portion of described block.All angle [alpha], the value of beta, gamma can be selected according to the particular requirement of any necessity by anyone that the present technique field is familiar with.Best, described angle value be 0 radian to 5/12 radian, preferable is that π/12 radians are to π/3 radians.
Described all embodiment preferably are made of plastics, and container is preferably made via blowing, and the dosage block is made via injection moulding.Yet as mentioned above, bounded system itself does not limit the use of other commercial available manufactured materials.The plastics that are applicable to this class purposes are generally thermoplastic material, such as polyethylene (PE), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polypropylene (PP), polyvinylchloride (PVC), and any other poly-mer not too commonly used, picture polystyrene, polycarbonate and polymethine.The plastics of these types are can reclaim use fully.Compare with present suction certainly block, can save high to 80% material.
All dosage blocks that are shown in Fig. 1 to 9 have dosage line (80) on the outer and/or inside face of the wall of described block.Described line (80) can be used for carrying out accurate measurement to pouring out the material that container (10) holds.Can change the quantity of line (80) at an easy rate according to the special-purpose of the material that is held.
The lip of the pour spout of the container of all embodiment and described dosage block manufactures anti-drippage, and is unrestrained in order to avoid unnecessary product.Also have, can increase the ring that cautions against stealing, adhesive tape, shrink sleeve or analogue in order to avoid in transportation and assigning process, block a shot and fluff.
The possible material that holds all is those materials that need dosage for a kind of special-purpose.For example, the articles for use that in washing and family, often run into, such as liquid or granulated detergent, liquid softener, family expenses purging medium and bleaching agent.
