Definitions
- the present invention relates to a container with a closure, consisting of a screw cap with an internal thread and a guarantee band attached to it and connected via bridging points without a tear-open tab, the container having a cylindrical spout with an external thread on which the screw cap is held.
- Screw caps of the type mentioned have been known for many years. Last but not least, their design depends on the material from which the container on which the closure is placed is made. In the case of glass bottles, the spout is usually standardized and the screw caps must therefore conform to the standard. For plastic containers, the spout can be varied much more freely. Also for containers made of so-called soft material, plastic spouts are used, which in turn can be manufactured with great design freedom.
- the invention relates to screw caps that together with containers made of plastic or soft material. act, the spout is made of plastic and the screw cap and the spout are coordinated.
- the molecular chains are therefore aligned in their area. These molecular chains, which are now oriented in the direction of the predetermined breaking webs, have their greatest resistance in precisely this direction. In other words, the forces that occur when screwing on run practically axially to the pouring direction and thus exactly in the direction of the predetermined breaking points. In addition, there is the known effect that the tensile forces are increased relatively slowly when screwing on, whereby material stretching occurs, which leads to a further alignment of the molecular chains and causes an increased tensile strength.
- DE-A-31 00 629 proposes a screw cap with a guarantee band, in which the guarantee band is initially integrally formed on the screw cap and the predetermined breaking line is only produced subsequently, by appropriate separation while leaving predetermined breaking webs.
- Such closures are much easier to open and can be used practically without waste to be produced.
- the production is extremely expensive due to the two-stage production alone. Accordingly, such closures are hardly available on the market.
- Figure 1 is a side view of the screw cap closure according to the invention, in which the spout is a separate part provided with a flange, which can be placed on a container and
- FIG. 2 shows the spout that can be placed on a container by itself in the view from above.
- Figure 3 shows an axial vertical section through the screw cap as shown in Figure 1, omitting the spout.
- FIGS 4 to 7 show schematically the various possible arrangements, the cutting elements and the SoUbruchstellenbrucken.
- the closure of interest here is a screw closure, in which the spout is molded or attached to the container, the closure consequently consisting of a screw cap, provided with an internal thread and a guarantee band connected to the screw cap via SoUbruchstellenbrucken, which has no tear tab.
- the container B can, as shown in FIG. 1, be a plastic bottle or a container made of soft material, namely a tubular bag made of a multilayer film consists of different materials.
- Such multilayer, laminated film materials consist, for example, of a paper or cardboard layer which is designed to be laminated with plastic films and an aluminum film layer.
- the spout in the form of a cylindrical sheet is then glued or welded onto such a container made of soft material. If container B is a plastic bottle, this bung is formed by the bottle neck.
- the bung 1 has a flange 2 and a cylindrical spout 3, which is provided with an external thread 4.
- the screw cap 5 can be fastened on the cylindrical spout 3 with the external thread 4.
- the screw cap 5 has an upper cover surface 6, to which a peripheral wall 7 adjoins all around.
- a guarantee band 11 is formed over a plurality of SoUbruchstellenbrucken 10.
- the guarantee band 11 has the shape of a conical ring.
- the SoUbruchstellenbrucken 10 bridge the distance a between the lower edge 12 of the cap 5 and the upper edge 13 of the guarantee tape 11. Between each two adjacent SoUbruchstellenbrucken 10 and the two edges mentioned, there are gaps 14.
- the jacket wall 7 has a corresponding ribbing or ribbing 9 on the outer surface.
- FIG. 2 a bung 1 is shown in FIG. 2 as it can be attached in particular to soft packaging.
- the bung 1 consists of a cylindrical spout 3, on the lower edge of which a circular flange 2 is formed.
- the flange 2 corresponds to a collar 2 '.
- the flange 2 mainly serves to fasten the bung 1 to the soft packaging, the collar 2 'is intended in particular to ensure that the tamper-evident band cannot be manipulated by reaching under the tether band.
- the guarantee band 11 lies at least approximately on the collar 2 'in the case of a plastic container, while in the version of a soft packaging the guarantee band 11 comes to rest on the flange 2 mentioned.
- a retaining collar 15 is formed on the cylindrical spout 3 above the flange 2.
- the diameter of the holding collar 15 corresponds approximately to the inside diameter of the screw cap in the region of the lower edge 12. At least one is on this holding collar 15
- Cutting element 20 molded.
- the holding collar 15 is provided with support cams 16 which engage in the spaces 14 mentioned. Likewise, the cutting elements 20 project radially outwards through the spaces 14.
- the screw cap 5 has an internal thread 8 which, like the external thread 4 of the cylindrical spout 3, is designed as a fine thread. This allows the screw cap 5 to be assembled by simply colliding, the two threads sliding over one another like a ratchet. In order to ensure that with this type of installation the guarantee band 11 does not immediately press onto the flange 2 or the collar 2 ′ and the So breakage bridges are destroyed during assembly, the support cams 16 can absorb these forces.
- the holding collar 15 itself is in turn connected to the flange 2 or the collar 2 'by means of support struts 17.
- the collar 2 ' can of course in turn be supported against the container B, but this is not shown in the drawing here.
- an orientation mark 18, which serves for positioning the bung during assembly is attached to the flange.
- the one mentioned Orientation mark allows alignment of the bung with appropriate machines, whereupon the screw cap 5, which can also be provided with orientation means (not shown here), can be put together in a predetermined angular position relative to one another and, as already mentioned, can then be assembled by simply pushing it together . This ensures, for example, that the cutting elements get exactly into the intermediate spaces 14 during such an assembly.
- the shape of the cutting elements 20 or the possibly only cutting element 20 advantageously has the shape of a fin or a saw tooth.
- the edge 21 located at the front in the unscrewing direction hereinafter called the front edge, is inclined to the radial direction such that when unscrewing the front edge pulls the SoUbruchstellenbrucken from the outside to the center and cuts.
- the front edge 22 in the unscrewing direction which can also be called the rear edge, runs approximately parallel to the front edge 21. If the screw cap according to the invention is not assembled as described above by pure axial collision, but by screwing on, this rear edge 22 acts as a deflector and can to elastically deform the SoUbruchstellenbrucken 10 outwards without being separated.
- the design of the cutting elements 20 as a fin thus enables various assembly methods to be used. So that this is correct possible -, the tapered outward protruding band 11 with its lower outwardly projecting edge 19 must protrude so far that when the screw is screwed on, the fin-shaped cutting element 20 actually comes under the band.
- the cutting elements 20 and the support cams 16 should advantageously bear against the lower edge 12 of the casing wall 7 in the assembled state.
- This angle is of course dependent on how many cutting elements 20 are present and how their circumference is distributed.
- the distribution of the SoUbruchstellenbrucken 10 on the circumference determines the angle of rotation, which is necessary to separate all predetermined breaking points.
- FIGS. 4 to 7 In the simplest form, a single cutting element 20 be present and the predetermined breaking points are cut one after the other in the sense of the rotation of the screw cap, as the numbering shown here explains.
- a second variant is shown in FIG. In this variant there are two cutting elements 20.
- the SoUbruchstellenbrucken 10 are arranged evenly distributed around the circumference. The two finned cutting elements are not exactly diametrically opposed to each other, but are slightly offset by an angle.
- FIG. 7 a variant is shown in which three cutting elements are arranged at regular intervals and in between there are three SoUbruchstellebrucken each at regular intervals between two adjacent cutting elements.
- the closure can be released from the guarantee band with a third turn.
- the effort is around three times as high as in the variant in which only one bridge is cut at a time.
