Definitions
- the invention relates to a lid for a beverage can, as they are usually made of sheet metal.
- Such beverage cans which can be closed by lids are on the market in various embodiments.
- a punched pouring opening with a tearable opening closure is provided in the lid mirror.
- a region which can be pressed in and is delimited by a line of scoring or notching is provided in the lid mirror and can be torn out or pressed in by means of a lever-like grip tab in order to expose the pouring opening.
- the area that can be pressed in can be completely detachable from the cover mirror or can be permanently connected to it, that is to say captively.
- beverage cans cannot be resealed sufficiently tightly in cases where the contents are not emptied all at once. However, this would be necessary if the content was to be removed in portions and at intervals without significant loss of quality.
- this lid is to be designed especially in the event that the pouring opening is only exposed by breaking open a scratch or score line.
- Counter-engagement elements on the inside of the wall and the outside of the closure can be applied with a sufficiently high closing force for tightly reclosing the pouring opening.
- Intervention or counter-engagement elements working and designed in the manner of a bayonet catch are particularly suitable Intervention or counter-engagement elements working and designed in the manner of a bayonet catch.
- the stopper-shaped closure can be made of metal. But it can also be made from another dimensionally stable material.
- a preferred embodiment of the cover according to the invention is obtained according to claim 4.
- particularly high closing forces and thus a particularly reliable sealing function can be achieved when the opening is reclosed.
- the area of the core wall of the wall wetted during pouring out of the beverage (claim 12, claim 13) can be completely covered by the closure element during reclosure (claim 5), wherein a stiffened edge area surrounds the sealing plug which is on the upper edge of the wall (comb) with tension.
- a particular advantage of the embodiment according to claim 6 or claim 7 is that the design is particularly suitable for lids in which the pouring opening is only exposed by breaking in a score or score line.
- the relative rotary movement of the bayonet-like interlocking engagement and counter-engagement elements can be used for controlled breaking in and exposing the opening.
- the breaking-in process requires only a very small amount of force, since the rotational movement and the positive engagement of the parts rotating relative to each other result in a considerable increase in force.
- the number of printing elements and printing areas can vary, at least two can be provided.
- three pressure elements and pressure surfaces can be arranged in relation to one another, which then stand in pairs at an angle of approximately 120 ° ( ⁇ 30 °) on the underside of the closure element and on the top of the cover mirror. If ring groove segments are arranged with an increasing base in the cover mirror (claim 17, 20), corresponding punctiform cams can be guided on the closure base of the closure element in the ring groove segments and, when the closure element rotates, continuously greater forces are required to break open onto the opening section of the cover mirror exercised In the rest position (unopened position) the cams of the closure element lie in the deepest areas of the ringing segments
- a raised control cam can be arranged in the cover mirror between the ring groove segments in order to achieve a large pivoting angle of the opening area during the rotary movement (claim 18). 18) to form ring groove segments and raised break-up cams inserted therein If all the cams in the closure base have the same height in the direction of the cover mirror of the cover and the ring groove segments in the cover mirror each have the same gradient, the shear opening force becomes during the rotational movement of the closure cap exerted at angular intervals on the break-open section of the cover mirror, so that it breaks safely along the score line
- the break-open cams arranged on the bottom of the closure are only molded in after the closure has been inserted and the closure has been locked on the cover mirror in such a way that each of these cams come to lie in the corresponding deepest point of the ring groove segments, which is preferably behind the control cam mentioned on the cover mirror is.
- a fully circumferential annular groove can be introduced in the closure base, which is directed away from the cover mirror, so that it can be inserted and initially rotated by the locking angle sigma ( ⁇ ) and only afterwards the break-open cams for the cover mirror are formed in the circumferential groove on the closure base but have no effect as they reach into the recessed areas of the ring groove segments.
- Figure 1 shows in a perspective exploded position and in
- FIG. 2 shows a modified embodiment of the cover according to FIG. 1 with another closure 125
- FIG. 3 shows a section of the cover according to FIG. 2 while the scratch or notch line 104 breaks in the cover mirror 111
- Figure 5 is an example of a cover with more than two, here with three arcuate depressions 117a, 117b, 117c, evenly distributed within the core wall 106 and formed obliquely ascending
- FIG. 6 is the closure element 125 corresponding to FIG. 5, also with three circumferentially elongated receiving grooves 116a, 116b, 116c, each with point-shaped cams 151a, 151b, 151c arranged therebetween, for engaging in the arcuate depressions 117 according to FIG. 5
- FIG. 7 illustrates the assembled state when the
- the lid 101 is preferably made of sheet metal. It has an edge area 101 r which can be permanently connected to the edge of a conventional beverage can in the usual way.
- the lid has a circular lid mirror 111, which is surrounded by a cylindrical wall 106 (core wall). In the lid mirror 111, a breakable area is delimited by a notch or score 103, which is circular in the example shown
- a bead 109 which is open towards the axis of the cover (inwards) and has a considerable radial depth.
- a cover radius 107 connects to the core wall 106.
- the core wall, the cover radius as a comb and one for Core wall 106 adjacent outer wall layer 106a form a wall lying around the pouring opening, which is raised upwards.It is small in diameter compared to the diameter of the rim and has a slightly larger diameter with its inner core wall than the break-open section 105 of the lid mirror 111
- this has channels or depressions 108 which are approximately parallel to the axis of the cover and open towards the axis. These are open to the cover radius 107 and to the bead 109 in the axial direction
- limited arcuate depressions (or beads) 117 are provided in the circumferential direction, which have pressure surfaces 118 which rise obliquely at one of their ends to the plane of the cover mirror
- the lid is associated with a closure element 102, which consists of a relatively rigid material, in particular sheet metal, but can also be made of another material, such as plastic.
- the closure element has a cylindrical wall 112 corresponding to the core wall 106, to which the outside faces adjoining radially outwardly projecting edge flange 113, the edge of which is stiffened by a curl 114.
- radially outwardly projecting ribs 115 are provided, distributed in the circumferential direction.
- the closure 102 has a bottom (or mirror) 110 in The radial dimension, the circumferential length, the number and the mutual spacing of the ribs 115 correspond to the radial depth, the circumferential extent, the number and the spacing of the channel-shaped depression 108 in the core wall 106 of the cover
- the circumferential bead 109 works as an engagement element and the ribs 115 as a counter-engagement element of a bayonet-shaped closure.
- the closure element 102 is pressed into the lid 101 in the position shown relative to the lid 101 until the ribs 115 are level of the bead 109 by rotating the closure element 102 with respect to the lid 101, the parts engage in a form-fitting manner
- the clear distance 122 between the rib 115 and the edge flange 113 of the closure element 102 is smaller than the distance 123 between the comb radius 107 and the effective (upper) edge of the bead 109, so that in the locked state the edge flange 113 is pretensioned on the cover radius 107 rests and so forms a reliable seal of the space enclosed by the core wall 106.
- Lid mirror 111 is pre-punched in terms of production, so it does not have to be broken open
- the cover in the form shown If, according to arrow 119, the closure element 102 is pressed into the cover and both parts are slightly rotated relative to one another in the direction of rotation ⁇ , so that there is little locking, the ⁇ ppenform pressure element 116 comes in the arc Indentation 117 to lie without the pressure element 116 exerting any appreciable pressure on the lid mirror 111. However, when the closure element 102 is rotated 180 ° relative to the lid 101, the pressure elements 116 ride on the oblique pressure surfaces 118 of the lid mirror, which are the continuation of the arcuate beads 117, and exert increasing axial pressure on the lid mirror.
- This pressure is sufficient to cause the score line 103 to break in, whereby the rotation and the cam action of the pressure elements 116 at the end of the 180 ° rotation have tipped the breakable region almost completely in the direction y toward the inside of the can
- the score line has a corresponding interruption which acts as an articulated line 140.
- the number of printing elements 116 and printing areas 118 can vary, in particular (at least) two can be provided. They can be provided in pairs. The same applies to the bayonet-like engagement elements 115 with associated channels 108 in the core wall 106
- the cover 101 is designed in the same way as in the embodiment according to FIG. 1.
- the closure element 125 differs from the closure element 102 in the different design of the edge flange 134, 139 and its stiffening.
- the closure element 125 has at the bottom of its cylindrical wall 138 at least two radially outwardly projecting ribs 135 as counter-engagement elements.
- At the upper end of the cylindrical wall 138 there is the initially flat edge flange 139, which is bent slightly downwards on the outside and is finally rolled upwards and inwards at 134.
- At least one pressure element 137 in the form of an arcuate rib is provided in the bottom 136.
- FIG. 3 shows the initial break-open process after a relative rotation ⁇ (alpha) of the closure element 125 relative to the cover 101 by 90 ° relative to the position according to FIG. 2 used for inserting the closure element. It can be seen that the pressure element 137 over the inclined surface 118 onto the plane of the cover mirror 111 is ridden, the cover mirror having been broken along the score line. With 105 the collapsible area of the lid mirror 111 is designated, while 104 designates the pouring opening.
- FIG. 4 shows a possible mutual assignment of the channels 108 and 108 'and the depressions 117 and 117' with respectively adjacent pressure surfaces 118 and 118 '. Furthermore, the bent ends of the broken notch line 103 can be seen at 103a, as a result of which a permanent connection between the breakable area 105 and the cover mirror 111 remains in the area 140, which also serves as a hinge line when the break-in mirror section 105 breaks in and swings in.
- Counter-engagement elements between the two parts 101 and 102 and 125 can also be interchanged. The same applies to the printing elements 116, 137 and the printing surfaces 118.
- FIG. 5 illustrates a top view of the cover mirror according to FIG. 4.
- three arcuate depressions 117a, 117b, 117c are provided, which rise from a deepest point to the level of the cover mirror 111 and form the pressure surfaces 118 (a, b, c).
- the arcuate depression 117b is no longer formed immediately after the insertion channel 108, but is offset accordingly if two insertion channels are formed symmetrically on the circumference of the core wall 106 and three circumferentially distributed arcuate depressions 117 within this core wall in the cover mirror 111 are provided
- More than three arch depressions can also be formed.
- the number of three such elements represents an optimum of function and effort
- Figure 6 illustrates the closure 125 with an arrangement of the
- Pressure elements 116 as pressure cams 151a, 151b, 151c, while a circumferential groove 116a, 116b, 116c is formed between these pressure cams
- FIG. 7 illustrates the assembled state in a top view, with an n respective pressure cam 151 in an arc depression 117 in each case
- Cover mirror 111 comes to drain
- the edge flange of the cover is not shown here, however, the rotation of the ribs 135, 135 ', which are initially inserted in the axial direction via the channels 108, 108' and are then shown rotated by an angle of approximately 45 °
- the state shown in FIG. 7 is the closed state, in which the opening bottom cams 151a, 151b, 151c have not yet broken open.
- This closed state is not obtained directly by inserting the closure according to FIG. 6 into the cover mirror according to FIG. 5, but through Inserting a closure 125 according to FIG. 6 without impressed break-open cams 151a, 151b,
- the angle ⁇ (sigma) shown is approximately 30 ° and corresponds to the rotation of the Closure 125 in the wall W, which is not shown in more detail in FIGS. 6, 7, 5, for locking the closure 125 on the core wall 106 of the wall W.
- the depression 117b and the associated cam 151a are then also from this rule by this angle. Symmetry of 120 ° with three arranged pressure cams / inclined surfaces, so that an arrangement of only about 120 ° is achieved.
- the breaking action takes place at an angle of approximately 60 °, in the course of the oblique grooves 117a, 117b, 117c.
- the lock is then rotated further by an angle of approximately 150 ° until the cams 151c come together with the control cam 150 on the cover mirror in order to give the broken-in section a considerable pivoting-in angle, with only a brief rotary movement, half the width of the cams. 150 / 151c corresponds. A large force is not required for this pivoting movement, so that a short angle of rotation is sufficient.
- the cooperation of the cams 150 / 151c mentioned takes place at the time when the locking bar 135 and its opposite analogue 135 'are locked in the core wall 106, so that there is a bearing for the force arising when swinging open.
- a lid is provided for closing a beverage can made of sheet metal, to which a closure element (102) is assigned.
- the lid has a break-in area delimited by a notch line (103) in the lid mirror, which is surrounded by a cylindrical core wall (106) of a core wall (W)
- the closure element has a corresponding cylindrical part (112) which engages in the core wall.
- engaging or counter-engaging element (s) are provided in the manner of a bayonet closure.
