Definitions
- the invention relates to a closure for the filling opening of a liquid container with a bung sleeve made of elastic material which fits into the filling opening and has a central opening, and with a bung plug which is seated in the central opening.
- Such closures are known from practice. They serve to seal the filling opening of a liquid container tightly.
- Examples of such containers are drums, small drums (party drums) or cans in which liquids, in particular drinks, are filled without pressure or under pressure. It is especially about party kegs for beer.
- the bung and the bung plug in it are a pre-assembled unit that is driven into the filling opening at the end of the filling process.
- the container is tapped with a tap to remove liquid.
- the plug is pushed out of the bung bush into the container with a puncture tube.
- the sheet pile sleeve seals against the puncture tube.
- liquid containers of the type mentioned at the outset which have a lower removal opening which is separate from the filling opening.
- This can be a bung hole that is tapped with a tap fitting or the like, or a tap integrated into the container.
- a pressure compensation valve instead of a sheet plug, a valve member is seated in the bung.
- the valve member is designed for manual rotation. It optionally takes a sealing closed position and a pressure equalization position in the bung. In the pressure compensation position, the inside of the container communicates with the environment.
- the prior art does not provide for piercing the container on the bung-type breech closure with a pressure compensation valve. No need was initially seen for this, since there is a lower removal opening on the container.
- the object of the invention is to provide a bung-type closure for the filling opening of a liquid container, which is provided with a pressure compensation valve and can be pierced.
- the plug is rotatably adjustable for valve actuation.
- the sheet pile can has a lateral pressure compensation channel, the outer mouth of which is located above the liquid level in the fully filled container. This makes it possible to equalize the pressure when the container is full.
- the bung plug has a sealing closed position in which it shuts off the inner mouth of the pressure equalization channel, and a pressure equalization position in which it opens a flow path from the inner mouth of the pressure equalization channel to the outside of the bung.
- the bung plug has an outwardly projecting sealing bead, which lies in the sealing position in front of the inner mouth of the pressure compensation channel.
- the bung plug has a jacket groove, which in the pressure compensation position connects the inner mouth of the pressure equalization channel with the outside of the bung.
- the jacket groove of the bung plug is covered on the outside in the sealing position and sealed. This ensures that no residual liquid or rinsing liquid can enter the closure during filling. The closure thus meets the highest hygiene requirements.
- the plug has a slot for the engagement of a turning tool. You should think of a screwdriver, a coin or similar.
- an actuating element with a handle for bending up and turning is embedded in the sheet plug. You can do without a special turning tool.
- the actuating element sits in the bung plug with a non-circular form fit. The latter is thereby precisely carried along when turning the handle for valve actuation.
- the actuating element assumes a detent position in the bung plug. It can be pulled out of the bung plug by overcoming the catch on the handle.
- the closure has tamper-evident protection, which shows whether one is already The pressure compensation valve has been actuated or not.
- tamper-evident protection shows whether one is already The pressure compensation valve has been actuated or not.
- the handle can be fastened to the actuating element with webs which tear off when they are bent up for the first time and form clearly visible fracture surfaces.
- This variant is of little construction effort. However, it does not indicate whether the bung plug with the actuating element has been turned in the bunghole without first bending the handle.
- a seal is inserted between the handle and the bung-type sleeve, which tears off when the handle is turned relative to the bung-type sleeve, as well as when the handle is first bent up, as well as when these two movements are superimposed.
- the handle is provided with a seal, which engages in the sheet pus and tears off when the handle is moved for the first time.
- an anchoring ring made of hard material is inserted into the sheet pile, one of which is from the sheet pile protruding seal hangs.
- the handle snaps into the seal.
- the seal is torn off the anchoring ring.
- the bung lock with the anchoring ring is in four parts.
- the anchoring ring can be overmoulded with the bung bush in 2-plastic technology.
- the anchoring ring can at the same time serve to reinforce the bung, so that it cannot be released from the filling opening of the container without being destroyed.

- Figure 12 is a top plan view of the four-part bung-lock with a section line A - A;
- FIG. 13 shows a section through the closure according to A - A of FIG. 12.
- Fig. 14 is a perspective view of an anchoring ring belonging to the four-part bung lock.
- the closure includes a bung 10 made of elastic material which is substantially rotationally symmetrical about its central axis and has an outwardly projecting flange 12 with which it bears against the outer wall of the container.
- the sheet pintle 10 projects into the container with an essentially conical tapering portion 14.
- the surface line of the tapering part 14 is curved in an S-shape.
- the bung 10 has a central opening in which a bung 18 is seated.
- the plug 18 has a substantially cylindrical hollow body which occupies the central opening. At its inner end there is a flange 20, which lies against the inner end of the bung 10.
- Sealing beads 22, 24, which engage with complementary circumferential grooves of the bung 18, are formed on the inner surface of the central bung sleeve.
- the bung plug 18 thus has a detent position in the bung 10, from which it can be released by piercing with a tap fitting and ejected into the container.
- the bung-type closure is provided with a pressure compensation valve, the valve member of which is the bung 18.
- the bung 10 has a lateral pressure compensation channel 26 in the form of a radial bore which passes through the bung 10 transversely at about half the height. When the bung 10 is hammered in, the radial bore is above the liquid level in the fully filled container.
- the pressure compensation valve is actuated by manually turning the bung 18 in the bung 10.
- the adjustment angle is 90 °.
- the closed position of the bung 18 is marked “0" on the bung and the pressure compensation position is labeled "1".
- the bung plug 18 has a sealing bead 28 which is molded onto its outer casing and protrudes outwards and which in the sealing position is in front of the inner mouth of the pressure compensation nals is 26 and tightly closes the pressure compensation channel 26.
- the bung plug 18 has on its outer jacket an axial groove 30 which, in the pressure compensation position, connects the inner mouth of the pressure compensation channel 26 to the outside of the bung 10 and opens a flow path between the interior of the container and the atmosphere.
- the bung plug 18 has a slot 32 on the outside for the engagement of a turning tool z. B. in the form of a screwdriver, a coin or the like.
- the closed position and the pressure compensation position is marked with arrows 34, 36 on the bung 10.
- the plug 18 is provided with a corresponding arrow 38.
- the slot 32 is aligned with this marking arrow 38.
- an actuating element 40 is embedded in the plug 18, which has a handle for bending up and turning.
- the actuating element 40 sits in a form-fitting manner in an externally accessible, non-circular central opening of the bung plug 18. It is locked to the bung plug 18 on an inner annular bead 42 of the bung plug 18, which engages in a complementary circumferential groove of the actuating element 40.
- the actuating element 40 is seated in a rotationally fixed manner in the bung 18.
- the bung 18 has so much slip in the bung rifle 10 that it rotates with the confirmation element 40 when rotating.
- the sheet pintle 20 has on the outside a recess 44 widening its central opening, in which a flange 46 which is attached to the actuating element 40 comes to rest. This is out of round. It has a radially protruding nose 48 which fits in two extensions 50, 52 of the bung-hole recess 44. As a result, the sealing closed position and pressure compensation position of the plug 18 is marked and locked in place.
- a handle bar 54 extending over its half circumference, which can be bent up about a diametrical axis 56 by rotation.
- the handle bar 54 is fastened to the actuating element 40 with webs 58 which tear off when they are bent up for the first time and form clearly visible fracture surfaces. This ensures protection of originality.
- three or more webs can also be provided (not shown).
- a groove 60 is provided on the bottom of the bung-hole recess 44, which lies in the same diametral plane as the pressure compensation channel 26 and extends from the central opening of the bung-bush 10 to the outer edge of the recess 44.
- the plug 18 serving as a valve member of the pressure compensation valve is actuated by means of the actuating element 40. rotates and brought from the closed position to the pressure compensation position and vice versa.
- the actuating element 40 is rotated on the bent handle 44. The plug 18 rotates with it.
- a flow path between the interior of the container and the atmosphere is opened via the pressure equalization channel 26 in the bung 10, the jacket groove 30 of the bung 18 and the groove 60 on the bottom of the bung recess 44.
- the outer mouth of the groove 60 is covered by the nose 48 on the flange 46 of the actuating element 40 and sealed.
- the bung plug 18 When the bung-type breech closure is pierced, the bung plug 18 assumes its closed position. The actuating element 40 is pulled out of the central opening of the bung 18 by overcoming its catch on the handle bracket 54, so that the bung plug 18 is accessible and can be ejected from the bung 10 into the container with a tap fitting.
- a diamond-shaped seal 62 hangs on the handle 54 of the actuating element 40 with thin webs.
- the seal 62 has a locking pin 64 on its underside, with which it engages in a suitable opening of the sheet pound 10. This occurs when the actuating element 40 is inserted into the bung plug 18.
