Abstract

The plastic closure (10) consists of a cap (11), which has a covering plate with an opening, of a cap wall, which extends upwards from the covering plate and forms a recess which is open at the top, and in which a top plate (12) is supported so as to be swivellable between a closed and an opened position. One side of the top plate (12) is effective as an actuating member, while the other side has a laterally arranged outlet opening which is closed in the closed position of the top plate (12) by the cap wall. In the delivery state of the container, the circumferential edge (13) of the cap lid (12) is provided on its side serving as actuating member with a tamper-proof connection (14, 32) which can be sheared off by the top edge (20) of the cap wall by swivelling the top plate (12) into the open position when the container is put into use.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verschluß aus Kunststoff für einen Behälter für frei fließfähige Stoffe gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a closure made of plastic for a container for free-flowing substances according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen derartigen Verschluß so auszubilden, daß der Verbraucher auf Anhieb sieht, ob sich der Behälter im fabrikmäßigen Originalzustand befin­det oder bereits einmal benutzt worden ist.The object of the invention is to design such a closure so that the consumer sees straight away whether the container is in the original factory condition or has already been used.

Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 enthaltenen Merkmale.The invention solves this problem by the features contained in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Durch diese Originalitätsanbindung an der Betätigungsseite des Kappendeckels ist sichergestellt, daß der Käufer oder Verbraucher sofort erkennen kann, ob der Verschluß vorher schon einmal geöffnet worden ist. Die Originali­tätsanbindung kann an den Umfangsrand des Kappendeckels mit dessen Herstellung gleichzeitig angespritzt werden und bildet daher einen einheitlichen Bestandteil des Kappen­deckels. Dabei kann die Originalitätsanbindung so einfach gestaltet sein, daß der zusätzliche Materialaufwand hierfür vernachlässigbar gering ist.This tamper-evident connection on the actuating side of the cap lid ensures that the buyer or consumer can immediately see whether the closure has been opened before. The tamper-evident connection can be molded onto the circumferential edge of the cap lid at the same time as it is manufactured and therefore forms a uniform component of the cap lid. The originality connection can be so simple that the additional material required for this is negligible.

Die Ausgestaltung der Originalitätsanbindung als seitli­cher Ansatz stellt sicher, daß dieser bei Betätigung des Kappendeckels im Öffnungssinn ohne weiteres von der Oberkante der Kappenwand, die dort nach unten bogenförmig ausgeschnitten ist, leicht abgeschert werden kann.The design of the tamper-evident connection as a lateral approach ensures that when the cap lid is actuated in the opening direction, it can easily be sheared off from the upper edge of the cap wall, which is cut out in an arc shape downwards there.

Die punktartige Anbindung des Ansatzes an dem Umfangsrand des Kappendeckels ermöglicht eine Abscherung des Ansatzes ohne wesentlichen zusätzlichen Kraftaufwand, so daß auch schwächere Personen ohne weiteres den Kappendeckel trotz der erfindungsgemäßen Originalitätsanbindung im Öffnungs­sinn betätigen können.The point-like connection of the approach to the circumferential edge of the cap cover enables the approach to be sheared off without substantial additional effort, so that even weaker people can easily operate the cap cover in the opening direction despite the inventive tying connection.

Die Anordnung von zwei derartigen Ansätzen gemäß Anspruch 4 hat den Vorteil einer zusätzlichen Sicherheit für den Fall, daß durch unvorhergesehene Umstände von außen ein Ansatz abgebrochen wurde, ohne daß eine Öffnung des Verschlusses damit verbunden war. Es steht dann immer noch ein weiterer Ansatz als Originalitätsanbindung zur Verfü­gung.The arrangement of two such approaches according to claim 4 has the advantage of additional security in the event that an approach was broken off due to unforeseen circumstances from the outside without an opening of the closure being connected to it. Then there is still another approach available as tamper-evident connection.

Die Verbindung der beiden Ansätze durch einen Garantie­bügel gemäß Anspruch 5 hat neben dem Vorteil eines besseren Aussehens eines derartigen Deckels den Vorteil, daß die Ansätze sich z.B. an der Kleidung des Verbrauchers nicht verhaken können und auch bei der Handhabung eines mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verschluß ausgerüsteten Behäl­ters für den Verbraucher unschädlich sind. Außerdem ist die Originalitätsanbindung in der Form des Garantiebügels mit den beiden Ansätzen, die bei der erstmaligen Benutzung des Behälters abgeschert werden, für den Verbraucher deutlicher sichtbar und kann zu diesem Zweck ggfls. auch farbig ausgebildet werden.The connection of the two approaches by a guarantee bracket in addition to the advantage of a better appearance of such a cover has the advantage that the approaches e.g. can not get caught on the clothes of the consumer and are harmless to the consumer even when handling a container equipped with the closure according to the invention. In addition, the originality connection in the form of the guarantee bracket with the two approaches that are sheared off when the container is used for the first time is more clearly visible to the consumer and can be used for this purpose if necessary. also be colored.

Dadurch, daß gemäß den Ansprüchen 6 und 7 der Garantiebü­gel an der Unterkante der beiden Ansätze angebunden und im übrigen elastisch ausgebildet ist, ist eine noch größere Verbraucherfreundlichkeit der Originalitätsanbindung si­chergestellt.Characterized in that according to claims 6 and 7 of the guarantee bracket tied to the lower edge of the two approaches and in remaining elastic is ensured an even greater consumer friendliness of the originality connection.

Der Behälterhals umgibt die Behälteröffnung und ist mit einem Schraubgewinde oder mit einem Rastanschlag versehen, wobei der Behälter vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff besteht, jedoch auch aus Glas oder Metall hergestellt sein kann. Der Behälter enthält eine frei fließende Substanz, z.B. flüssige, cremeartige, granulierte, puderige oder ähnliche Stoffe, die an der Speisetafel, im Haushalt oder für kosmetische oder industrielle Zwecke verwendet werden.In the figures, a closure made of plastic is shown, which, as is known per se, can be screwed or bounced onto the neck of a container, not shown. The container neck surrounds the container opening and is provided with a screw thread or with a detent stop, the container preferably being made of plastic, but can also be made of glass or metal. The container contains a free flowing substance, e.g. liquid, cream-like, granulated, powdery or similar substances that are used on the dining table, in the home or for cosmetic or industrial purposes.

In Fig. 1 und 2 ist ein Verschluß l0 aus Kunststoff gezeigt, der aus einer Kappe 11 und einer Kopfplatte 12 besteht, die sich im geschlossenen Zustand befinden. Fig. 1 zeigt die Betätigungsseite der Kopfplatte, die an ihrem Umfang mit einem umlaufenden Umfangsrand 13 versehen ist, der von der Kopfplatte sich abwärts erstreckt. Der Umfangsrand 13 ist mit einer Originalitätsanbindung 14 versehen, die bei Ingebrauchnahme des mit dem Verschluß versehenen Behälters durch Verschwenken der Kopfplatte in die Offen-Stellung abscherbar ist, so daß hierdurch erkenntlich ist, daß der Behälter benutzt wurde.1 and 2, a closure 10 made of plastic is shown, which consists of a cap 11 and a head plate 12, which are in the closed state. Fig. 1 shows the actuating side of the head plate, which is provided on its periphery with a circumferential peripheral edge 13 which extends downward from the head plate. The The peripheral edge 13 is provided with a tamper-evident connection 14 which, when the container provided with the closure is put into use, can be sheared off by pivoting the head plate into the open position, so that it can be seen that the container has been used.

Aus Fig. 3 ist ersichtlich, daß die Kappe 11 eine Abdeckplatte 15 aufweist, die mit einer Öffnung 16 versehen ist. Von der Abdeckplatte 15 ersteckt sich eine Kappenwand 17 nach oben. Die Kappe ist mit einer nach oben offenen Ausnehmung 18 oberhalb der Abdeckplatte 15 versehen und weist am oberen Rand 19 eine Oberkante 20 auf. Die Kopfplatte 12 ist um eine Schwenkachse y zwischen einer geschlossenen und geöffneten Stellung verschwenkbar abgestützt. Die der Betätigungsseite der Kopfplatte gegenüberliegende Seite ist mit einer seitlich angeordne­ten Auslaßöffnung 21 versehen, die in geschlossener Stellung der Kopfplatte durch die Kappenwand 17 geschlos­sen ist, wobei diejenige Seite der Kopfplatte, die als Betätigungsorgan wirksam ist, in geschlossener Stellung im Abstand oberhalb der Oberkante 20 der Kappenwand 17 angeordnet ist. Der Umfangsrand 13 der Kopfplatte er­streckt sich abwärts in die offene Ausnehmung 18 der Kappe 11 und weist die seitliche Austrittsöffnung 21 unterhalb der Unterseite der Kopfplatte sowie im oberen Teil des Umfangsrandes 13 auf. Der Umfangsrand 13 ist im Bereich der Austrittsöffnung 21 zur Abdichtung an der Kappenwand 17 unterhalb ihrer Oberkante hinreichend elastisch ausge­bildet. An der Unterseite der Kopfplatte 13 befindet sich eine Stütz- und Schwenkvorrichtung 22, mittels welcher die Kopfplatte in bezug auf den Boden 23 der Ausnehmung undrehbar und schwenkbar abgestützt ist. In der Ausnehmung 18 ist ein Anschlag 24 im Bereich des Bodens der Ausnehmung 18 vorgesehen, an dem der Umfangsrand der Kopfplatte in der Öffnungsstellung anliegt, wie Fig. 4 zeigt, während die Unterseite der Kopfplatte in der Schließstellung an dem einen Anschlag 25 bildenden oberen Rand der Öffnung 16 anliegt. Die Unterseite der Kopfplatte ist mit einem zylindrischen Stopfen 26 versehen, der die Öffnung 16 dicht verschließt, wobei ein Teil des die Öffnung 16 bildenden Rohrstutzens 27 an der der Austritts­öffnung 21 abgekehrten Seite außen von einem zylinderaus­schnittförmigen Teil 28 unter Bildung einer Nut 29 umgeben ist, die in der Öffnungsstellung gemäß Fig. 4 eine Abdichtung zur Ausnehmung 18 hin gewährleistet. Ein gestrichelter Kreis in den Fig. 3 und 4 zeigt in Fig. 2 zu sehende Rastvorsprünge 29, die in entsprechende Vertiefun­gen an der Innenseite der Kappenwand 17 beweglich eingreifen und eine Verdrehsicherung für die Kopfplatte darstellen.From Fig. 3 it can be seen that the cap 11 has a cover plate 15 which is provided with an opening 16. A cap wall 17 extends upward from the cover plate 15. The cap is provided with an upwardly open recess 18 above the cover plate 15 and has an upper edge 20 at the upper edge 19. The head plate 12 is pivotably supported about a pivot axis y between a closed and an open position. The side opposite the actuating side of the head plate is provided with a laterally arranged outlet opening 21, which is closed by the cap wall 17 in the closed position of the head plate, the side of the head plate, which acts as an actuating member, in the closed position at a distance above the upper edge 20 the cap wall 17 is arranged. The peripheral edge 13 of the head plate extends downward into the open recess 18 of the cap 11 and has the lateral outlet opening 21 below the underside of the head plate and in the upper part of the peripheral edge 13. The peripheral edge 13 is sufficiently elastic in the area of the outlet opening 21 for sealing on the cap wall 17 below its upper edge. On the underside of the head plate 13 there is a support and pivoting device 22, by means of which the head plate is non-rotatably and pivotably supported with respect to the bottom 23 of the recess. In the recess 18, a stop 24 is provided in the region of the bottom of the recess 18, against which the peripheral edge of the head plate rests in the open position, as shown in FIG. 4, while the underside of the head plate in the The closed position bears against the upper edge of the opening 16 forming a stop 25. The underside of the head plate is provided with a cylindrical stopper 26 which tightly closes the opening 16, part of the pipe socket 27 forming the opening 16 being surrounded on the side facing away from the outlet opening 21 by a cylindrical cut-out part 28 to form a groove 29, which ensures a seal to the recess 18 in the open position according to FIG. 4. A dashed circle in FIGS. 3 and 4 shows in FIG. 2 locking projections 29, which engage in corresponding recesses on the inside of the cap wall 17 and represent an anti-rotation device for the head plate.

Die Originalitätsanbindung 14 besteht im einzelnen aus zwei Ansätzen 30, die von dem Umfangsrand 13 der Kopfplatte 12 seitlich nach außen in geringem Abstand oberhalb der an dieser Seite nach unten ausgeschnittenen Oberkante 20 des Kappenrandes 19 vorstehen. Wie Fig. 2 zeigt, ragen die Ansätze im Grundriß gesehen, nicht über die Umrißlinie der Außenseite der Kappe hinaus, sondern stehen dieser gegenüber etwas zurück.The tamper-evident connection 14 consists in particular of two lugs 30 which project laterally outwards from the peripheral edge 13 of the head plate 12 at a slight distance above the upper edge 20 of the cap edge 19 cut down on this side. As shown in FIG. 2, the projections seen in the floor plan do not protrude beyond the outline of the outside of the cap, but rather stand back somewhat from it.

Die beiden Ansätze sind sehr schmal ausgebildet und erstrecken sich bis unter den oberen Rand der Kopfplatte 12, sind aber nur am unteren Ende bei 32 punktartig mit dem Umfangsrand 13 des Kappendeckels 12 verbunden. Wie aus Fig. 1 und 2 ersichtlich ist, sind die beiden Ansätze 30 zur Hauptschwenkebene 31 symmetrisch an dem Umfangsrand der Kopfplatte angebracht und durch einen Garantiebügel 32 miteinander verbunden. Dieser Garantiebügel 32 erstreckt sich in einem etwa konstanten radialen Abstand von dem Umfangsrand 13 zwischen den beiden Ansätzen 30. Seine radial nach außen liegende Fläche fluchtet in Draufsicht mit der Außenseite der Kappenwand 17 oder liegt etwas innerhalb derselben, so daß die Originalitätsanbindung vor einer Beschädigung beim Transport o. dgl. geschützt ist. Vorzugsweise ist der Garantiebügel 32 nur an die Unterkan­te 32 der beiden Ansätze 30 angebunden und elastisch ausgebildet.The two approaches are very narrow and extend to below the upper edge of the head plate 12, but are only connected at 32 at the lower end point-like to the peripheral edge 13 of the cap cover 12. As can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2, the two approaches 30 to the main pivoting plane 31 are attached symmetrically to the peripheral edge of the head plate and connected to one another by a guarantee bracket 32. This guarantee bracket 32 extends at an approximately constant radial distance from the peripheral edge 13 between the two lugs 30. Its radially outward surface is in plan view with the outside of the cap wall 17 or lies somewhat within the same, so that the tamper-evident connection is protected from damage during transport or the like. The guarantee bracket 32 is preferably only connected to the lower edge 32 of the two lugs 30 and is elastic.

Die Stütz- und Schwenkvorrichtung 22 besteht aus backen­förmigen Teilen des Umfangsrandes 13, deren kreisförmige Stützfläche sich auf entsprechend ausgestalteten Stütz­rippen an der Innenseite der Kappenwandung im Bereich der Ausnehmung 18 schwenkbar abstützen.The support and pivoting device 22 consists of cheek-shaped parts of the peripheral edge 13, the circular support surface of which is pivotably supported on appropriately designed support ribs on the inside of the cap wall in the region of the recess 18.
