Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cylindrical container of the type described in the preamble to the attached claim.
  • the container is of the type which is used, i.a., for medicines in tablet form.
  • Previously known containers of the type in question have a lid in the form of a cylindrical plate which abuts the edge of the mouth of the container when the plug of the lid is pressed into the mouth of the container.
  • the diame­ter of the lid is greater than the outer diameter of the container so that the lid has a free edge portion extend­ing outside of the container mouth edge to be easily grasped by the fingers when the plug is to be pulled out to open the container.
  • a shrink film over the lid and extending down onto the container.
  • the projecting lid edge presents, however, certain dis­advantages for machine filling and sealing of the contai­ner. It can also be difficult to get a secure grip on the relatively narrow lid edge when extracting the plug. Also, sealing involves an additional costly step at the same time as the seal obtained can be difficult to break.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to achieve a con­tainer of the type in question which does not have the above mentioned disadvantages.
  • the container accor­ding to the invention has in its closed and sealed state a cylindrical outer surface which extends without projec­tions from one end of the container to the end of the lid.
  • the lid is disposed within a collar which is an extension of the container itself.
  • the collar guarantees that the container cannot be opened before access is gained to the cylindrical outer surface of the lid. This can only be done by twisting the cylindrical collar to obtain rupture along the perforation near the axially inner end of the collar. The collar is thus twisted off. Only thereafter is it possible to grasp the cylindrical lid and pull out the plug.
  • the cylindrical container 10 extends up to an internal shoulder 11 and is thereafter extended with a sealing collar 12.
  • the axially inner end portion of the sealing collar is provided with a weakened zone in the form of slits 13 or other perforations aligned around the entire circumference of the collar. If the container 10 is held securely and the collar 12 is twisted, rupture will occur along the slits 13 and the collar can be removed and discarded.
  • the outer surface 12 of the collar is suitably fluted as shown in the drawing to provide a secure grip when twisting the collar.
  • the lid 14 consists of a substantially cylindrical wall 15 which in the example shown has a cylindrical outer sur­ face. This surface can, however, be provided with a depression to facilitate gripping the wall 15 in Fig. 2 after the collar 12 has been twisted off.
  • the lid At its axially inner end the lid has an elastic plug 16 which seals against the interior of the container.
  • the wall 15 of the lid has a maximum outer diameter which is smaller than the outer diameter of the container but greater than the inner dia­meter of the container.
  • the inner edge 15A of this wall rests against the shoulder 11.
  • the cylindrical collar 12 has the same outer diameter as the container 10 and an inner diameter which is at least equal to the maximum outer diameter of the lid wall 15.
  • the lid wall 15 and the collar 12 have approximately the same length so that the lid lies protected and inacces­sible inside the collar 12.
  • a snap connection which locks the lid when pressed down to the position shown inside the collar.
  • a small bead can for example be provided on the outside of the wall 15 to snap into a circular groove on the inside of the collar 12 when the lid has been pressed into its position shown in Fig. 1.
  • the collar 12 when twisted remains on the lid if so desired; i.e. the collar remains on the cover when the cover is removed to extract the plug. This elimi­nates the problem of discarding the collar after the seal is broken.
