Definitions

  • the invention consists of a multi-use cap constituted by a stopper and a screw-on cap.
  • the cap is screwed on to the neck of the bottle loosely retaining inside it the stopper, that has a conical adjustment surface and a flange that abuts against the screwthreading of said stopper.
  • the latter has, at the inner face of its upper surface, a projection that contacts the upper part of the cap.
  • a flange in form of a truncated cone is arranged to the lower part of the stopper, attached to it by easy-to-break points and fitting the projection of the neck in the screw-off operation.
  • a type of screw-on bottle cap used on bottles containing carbonated drinks, whose edge has a sealing flap, advantageously connected to the body by easy to break points, for the purpose of making it easy to initially open the bottle, is known in the present prior art.
  • This complex shape of the cap causes the sealing or fitting of the cylindrical neck on the neck of the bottle to be done by turning it together with the cap. This produces deformation of the neck in contact with the neck of the bottle and this makes the leak-tightness of the seal uncertain, with the subsequent loss of gas from within the bottle.
  • the present invention puts on the market a newly shaped multi-use screw-on bottle cap, having a conventional sealing flap, which has the special feature of including a stopper, independent from the cap and which remains inside it, with the possibility of vertical movement, which causes the sealing of the neck of the bottle, to be done by rectilineal movement of the stopper over the neck.
  • the neck of the stopper vertically enters into the neck of the bottle and also that there is vertical fitting to the edge thereof, which ensures leak-tightness of the seal, which is so necessary in containers that contain carbonated liquids.
  • the screw-on cap object of this invention, is comprised by a stopper lodged inside it which is mechanically held thereto, by means of ribs and grooves provided in said cap, just as the inside filleting itself of the cap.
  • Said fitting of the stopper inside the cap is basically done in a loose manner to allow the stopper to move freely with respect to the cap, in such a way that the cap can screw on the mouth of the container, while the stopper moves upon the neck of the bottle in a rectilineal movement.
  • the cap is characterized by the fact that the stopper included therein, is provided with a conical sealing neck, which vertically enters into and fits in an airtight manner inside the neck of the container, when the cap is screwed on to the thread on the outside of said neck of the bottle.
  • the stopper has a conical stepper in the area between the neck and the flat area or flange of the stopper and this stepper reinforces the sealing on the corresponding top edge of the neck of the bottle.
  • Figure one represents a side elevational view of the cap, with the stopper disconnected from the cap.
  • a sealing flap which is connected thereto by break points.
  • Inside the side walls of the cap there is filleting so that it may screw on the neck of the bottle, while on the outside there is a series of vertical ribs that allow for the gripping of the cap.
  • Said stopper has a conical neck which is connected to the flat part by means of a conical stepper.
  • Figure two represents a side elevational view of the screw-on cap on the neck of a bottle.
  • the stopper has been previously lodged inside the cap and the stopper is held in the space formed by the inside filleting of the cap and the bottom thereof. The thickness itself of the screwthread prevents it from coming out of said lodging.
  • the stopper remains lodged in said space with play which allows the stopper to be able to move vertically, when the cap is being screwed on the neck of the bottle.
  • the conical neck of the stopper will vertically enter into the neck of the bottle. It is pressed to the maximum by the central raised part existing on the bottom of the cap and the neck remains fit inside the neck of the bottle.
  • the conical stepper of the neck also remains fit upon the top edge of the neck of the bottle.
  • the multi-use screw-on cap is comprised by a tube-shaped body, whose vertical walls (1), have on the inside thereof a helical filleting (2), while on the outside thereof, there are some longitudinal ribs (3) which make it easy to fit in place.
  • Said screwthreads form with the wall (4) which comprises the bottom of the cap, a lodging (5) advantageously placed so that a stopper fits therein with free movement.
  • Said cap also has on its edge a sealing flap (7), joined to the body by easy to break points (8.)
  • the stopper which is lodged inside the cap is comprised of a flat part like a flange (9) one of whose surfaces extends into a conical neck (10). In the middle thereof, there is a peripheral stepper which is likewise conical (11.)
  • the stopper Once the stopper is lodged inside the cap, the latter will be arranged so that it remains coupled to the neck (12) of a bottle, which has outside filleting (13), as well as a peripheral rib (14) close to the mouth of the neck.
  • the cap will screw on the outside filleting (13) of the neck of the bottle, at the same time that the conical neck (10) of the stopper will vertically enter into the neck of the bottle, until it fits inside it in a leak-tight manner.
