Definitions
- the invention relates to a screw cap for containers, in particular for bottles, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Screw caps are the type discussed here
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a screw cap of the type mentioned here, which does not have these disadvantages.
- the screw cap is characterized in that the securing band has at least one expansion zone whose expansion behavior differs markedly from that of the other securing band: the securing band is yielding in the region of the expansion zone, in particular transversely to its longitudinal extent, ie transversely to the starting direction that results in a higher flexibility.
- the security band is characterized by a closed structure, that is, it is formed in intact condition as a closed band, so that the screw cap on the first Closing the container can not get caught anywhere.
- the closed band is characterized in spite of the expansion zone by a high stability, so that the security band remains intact when first closing a container with maximum security and disturbances in the closing process are practically impossible.
- the expansion zone is characterized by the fact that it gives the securing band an extensibility which is particularly perpendicular to the circumferential direction of the screw closure, that is to say perpendicular to the longitudinal extension of the securing band, ie in the direction of the height of the securing band.
- a screw cap which is characterized in that the expansion zone is offset relative to the predetermined breaking line in the circumferential direction.
- the expansion zone is offset relative to the predetermined breaking line in the circumferential direction.
- screw cap which has a plurality of expansion zones in the region of the securing band. This makes it possible to influence the elasticity of the securing band in such a targeted manner that the opening and reclosing forces can be easily adjusted to a desired low value.
- a cut is made in the region of the securing band, namely an expansion cut, which serves as a stretch zone.
- an expansion cut which serves as a stretch zone.
- the region of the cut which may be formed intermittently, which penetrates the thickness of the securing band entirely or only parts thereof, results in a higher elasticity or extensibility of the securing band, so that the expansion zone can be realized in a simple manner.
- the predetermined breaking line is not formed completely circumferentially in the circumferential direction. It is thus possible to realize a holding region, also referred to as a holding web, which holds the securing tape in the desired position.
- the screw cap which is characterized in that provided in the region of the securing band, ie between the predetermined breaking line and the edge of the securing tape facing away from the bottom of the screw, at least one weakening zone is, which is preferably substantially vertical. It is also conceivable that it is arranged at an angle relative to the vertical. It is essential that the securing band in the region of the weakened zone has a reduced strength which allows deformation and, if appropriate, tearing of the securing band in the area of the weakened zone during the first opening.
- the weakening zone has weakening areas, which are arranged offset from one another in the circumferential direction. Between the two weakened areas results in a connecting web, the strength of which can be determined by the length of the weakened areas and by the width of the offset. In this way, the strength can be specified in the weakening zone without any special effort.
- FIG. 1 shows a first exemplary embodiment of a screw closure in intact condition
- Figure 2 is a section along the reproduced in Figure 1 line A-B;
- FIG. 3 is a section along the line reproduced in Figure 1 CD;
- FIG. 4 shows a screw cap placed on a container after the first opening;
- FIG. 5 shows a screw cap on a container with the securing band spread apart
- FIG. 6 shows the screw closure shown in FIG. 1 in plan view in the opened state
- FIG. 9 shows a section through the screw closure shown in FIG. 6 along the line C-D.
- the screw cap described below is characterized in that it is lifted off the container mouth at the first opening, so performs a transverse movement in addition to the rotational movement.
- a Verhakungs is provided which cooperates with an abutment on the container to be closed.
- a force is exerted on the securing band, which on the one hand acts parallel to the transverse movement, on the other hand causes a radial widening of the securing band.
- the first embodiment of a screw cap 1 has a bottom 3, which spans the mouth of the container to be closed and from which a circumferential casing 5 extends, so that Overall, a cap-shaped cup-shaped screw 1 is formed.
- a cap-shaped cup-shaped screw 1 is formed on the outside of the jacket 5, as shown here, vertical, that is parallel to the central or rotational axis 7 of the screw cap
- a backup tape 11 is provided, which is connected to the jacket 5 via a predetermined breaking line 13. This is designed so that the security tape
- a weakened region is formed in the wall of the screw cap, ie in the region between casing 5 and securing strip 11, or a cutting line is introduced which cuts through the wall over the entire thickness or penetrates only a portion of the thickness of the securing strip 11. If the cut extends over the entire thickness of the securing band 11, a row of webs 15 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) is generally provided on the inside of the jacket 5, which remain substantially intact when the cut is introduced and the predetermined breaking line 13 or span the section. When first opened, these webs 15 are torn off, so that the predetermined breaking line 13 opens.
- the predetermined breaking line 13 can extend over the entire circumference of the screw cap 1. Preferably, it is sufficient, but over a smaller circumference of, for example, about 240 °. It is also conceivable to provide a plurality of separate predetermined breaking lines 13, which then each extend over a smaller portion of the circumference. At a distance from the edge 9, below the predetermined breaking line 13, an expansion zone 17 is provided within the securing band 11, preferably approximately parallel to the predetermined breaking line 13, in which region the extensibility of the securing band 11 is substantially greater than in the adjacent area. If-seen in the circumferential direction-a plurality of predetermined breaking lines are provided, preferably each break line is to be assigned at least one expansion zone 17.
- the expansion zone 17 is preferably realized by a line-shaped softer or weakened region of the securing band 11, preferably by a stretch cut.
- This can be designed as a continuous or intermittent cut, which is composed by individual cutting lines.
- the depth of the cut is chosen so that it extends either only through a portion or through the entire thickness of the securing band 11, wherein then a connecting bridge is provided, which spans the cut and is torn when first opened.
- the expansion zone 17 is characterized in that, viewed in the circumferential direction, it extends at least over a certain portion of the screw cap 1.
- a force is applied to the expansion zone 17 so that it widens substantially transversely to its longitudinal extent.
- the expansion direction of the expansion zone thus runs essentially transversely to the longitudinal extent or circumferential direction of the securing band 11, that is to say in the direction of the height of the securing band 11, that is to say in the direction of the axis of rotation 7. It can be seen from FIG. 1 that in the exemplary embodiment shown here, the expansion zone 17 extends substantially horizontally and thus practically parallel to the predetermined breaking line 13 and / or to the edge 19 of the securing band 11 facing away from the edge. It is also conceivable that the expansion zone 17 follows an imaginary helix.
- FIG. 1 shows that the screw closure is provided with a weakening zone 21, which here comprises a first weakening region 23 which is arranged between the predetermined breaking line 13 and the expansion zone 17, and a second weakening region 25 which is provided between the expansion zone 17 and the edge 19 is.
- a weakening zone 21 which here comprises a first weakening region 23 which is arranged between the predetermined breaking line 13 and the expansion zone 17, and a second weakening region 25 which is provided between the expansion zone 17 and the edge 19 is.
- the weakening zone 21 extends substantially vertically, ie parallel to the axis of rotation 7. However, it can also be more or less inclined with respect to this. It is divided in the embodiment shown here, as I said, in two weakening areas. They are seen in the circumferential direction something offset, so do not form a continuous vertical weakening area. This is not mandatory. Optionally, therefore, only a single continuous weakening range can be provided.
- the weakening zone 21 can thus be characterized by several vertical weakening areas. - lo ⁇
- the weakening zone 21 can be realized as a line-shaped weakening region, that is to say through a thin-walled region, 5 or preferably by means of a weakening cut or weakening cuts which correspond to the weakening regions 23 and 25.
- the cuts can pass through the thickness of the securing band 11 or only over a partial depth. It is also conceivable to provide interrupted intermittent cuts. It is also possible to provide a continuous cut which is spanned by a bridge which is torn when the closure 1 is first opened.
- two vertically offset weakening areas 23 and 25 are provided, between which a connecting web 27 remains, which is the upper part of the securing band
- the strength of the connecting web 27 can be defined defined.
- the securing band 11 has two regions between the predetermined breaking line 13 and the lower edge 19, namely an upper band region 28a and a lower band region 28b.
- the expansion zone 17 lies between these areas.
- FIG. 2 shows the screw closure 1 shown in FIG. 1 in cross section.
- the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that reference is made to the description of Figure 1.
- the sectional view according to FIG. 3 shows that the expansion zone 17 is likewise not formed circumferentially. In the embodiment shown here, it extends over a circumferential angle of approximately 125 °.
- a retaining web 29 is formed in that here the securing tape 11 has no predetermined breaking line 13 and no expansion zone 17.
- the securing band 11 is fastened directly to the edge 9 of the jacket 5 of the screw cap 1 or integrally formed therewith.
- the retaining web 29 preferably extends over a range of approximately 12 ° to 18 °, in particular of approximately 15 °.
- the retaining web 29 extends to the lower band portion 28 a, so that this is connected to the jacket 5 here.
- the predetermined breaking line 13 and the expansion zone 17 which is axially spaced, ie seen in the direction of the axis of rotation 7, exists.
- the predetermined breaking line 13 and the expansion zone 17 are at a distance from each other, which corresponds to the height of the upper band portion 28a.
- the intact regions of the screw cap 1, which form the retaining web 29, and the overlap region 31, can be defined in their circumferentially measured width by appropriate selection of the initial length of the predetermined breaking line 13 or the expansion zone 17.
- the overlapping area 31 extends over a range of 30 ° to 36 °, preferably about 33 °, or in other words over a range of 1/10 to 1/12 of the circumference.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 show the weakened zone 21, in particular the second weakened area 25.
- Figure 4 shows the screw cap 1 on a container, here on a bottle 33. It can be clearly seen that the screw cap 1 was opened for the first time. Parts which correspond to those in the preceding figures are given the same reference numerals. In this respect, reference is made to the description of Figures 1 to 3.
- the securing band 11 is torn open in the area of the weakened zone 21, ie in the first weakened area 23 and in the second weakened area 25, also in the region of the predetermined breaking line 13 and the expansion zone 17.
- the securing strip 11 is here completely demolished by the jacket 5.
- the elastic tether 35 holds the portion exploded in the region of the expansion zone 17 and the portion of the securing band 11 which has been released in the region of the predetermined breaking line 13 in a desired spread position, so that the forces required for reclosing are minimized and the securing band 11 is held in such a way that this when resealing a container way the bottle 33 with the screw cap 1 does not bother.
- the width of the holding web 29 seen in the circumferential direction is defined by the distance of the left end of the expansion zone 17 to the weakening zone 21.
- the length of the elastic retaining strap 35 is defined, and by the distance measured in the vertical direction of the expansion zone 17 to the predetermined breaking line 13, the height of the elastic retaining strap 35 and thus its strength is determined so that the elasticity of Fuse bands 11.
- the overall height of the securing band 11 determines its strength.
- the height of the upper band area 28a is about one third of the total height, in particular 0.3 to 0.33 of the total height.
- At an overall height of about 4.2 mm of the backup tape 11 so the height of the upper band portion 28a is about 1.26 mm to about 1.4 mm.
- the connection of the backup tape 11 on the jacket 5 of the screw cap 1 or at the edge 9 takes place on the one hand on the elastic tether 35 and the other on the retaining web 29.
- These compounds also the spreading behavior of the backup tape 11 is total and in the region of the expansion zone 17 ' determined during the first opening of the screw cap 1, which is also determined by the material of the securing band 1.
- the total strength of the securing band 11 is reduced by the expansion zone 17 and the weakening zone 21 and that its elasticity is increased, so that the first opening of the screw cap 1 requires a smaller force. Due to the length of the expansion zone 17, the elasticity of the securing band 11 can be influenced. In addition, the free-standing area of the securing band 11 is held in the spread position by the elastic retaining band 25, so that a first opening and thus manipulations are reliably detected and the reclosing forces are reduced and the securing band 11 does not interfere with resealing.
- FIG. 6 shows a screw cap 1 in a top view, as has been explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5.
- the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that reference is made to the description of the preceding figures.
- the screw cap 1 has already been opened, so that the securing band 11, as shown in Figure 4, is spread radially and the consumer can easily recognize it manipulation of the screw cap 1 and a first opening.
- the securing band is therefore kept very well in the spread-apart position by the elastic region 39, because the elastic region 39 is supported at one end directly on the retaining web 29, ie is also connected directly to the jacket 5 of the screw cap 1.
- the elastic holding strap 35 serves to hold the securing strap 11 in its more or less widely spread position, as can be seen from FIG.
- the lower band section 28b of the securing band 11 that is to say the elastic region 39, is held at a distance from its upper band region 28a, so that manipulations and a first opening of the screw cap are prevented by this axial spreading 1 are easily recognizable to a consumer.
- the securing band 11 can, unlike in FIG. 6, also lie with its free end 37 somewhat within the outer boundary line of the screw cap 1. It is essential that it is held over its entire course at a radial distance from the jacket 5 of the screw cap 1, so that not shown here, on the inside of the securing band 11 existing Ver- kung and locking devices that are formed, for example, as barbs , Do not interfere reclosing of the container, so that the resealing forces are substantially reduced.
- the locking devices can be aligned and arranged with respect to the predetermined breaking line 13 and in particular with respect to the expansion zone 17 so that the securing band 11 is stabilized during the first application of the screw cap 1 and during the transport of the closed container.
- FIG. 6 shows that the elastic region 39 is therefore held at a radial distance from the jacket 5.
- the spacing of the remaining securing band 11 can be increased by the spreading forces of the elastic region 39 and the holding forces of the elastic band 39.
- rule holding ribs 35 are still slightly spread radially. It turns out that only in the region of the retaining web 29 on the inside of the securing band 11 provided hooks are in their original position.
- the barbs on the inside of the elastic region 39 and the inside of the other securing band 11 are displaced radially outwards, so that, as stated, the re-hooks during closing, that is to say re-screwing, of the screw cap 1 can not disturb and the resealing forces become clear are reduced.
- the screw cap 1 thus in turn has a bottom 3, from which a circumferential casing 5 emerges. At its edge 3 facing away from the bottom 9 a securing band 11 is attached, which is connected via a predetermined breaking line 13 with the edge 9 and has a strain zone 17.
- the predetermined breaking line 13 does not have to be completely circumferential and, by the way, this also applies to the above-described exemplary embodiment also several individual sections of a predetermined breaking line can be provided. The same applies to both embodiments for the expansion zone 17.
- a single expansion zone 17th or a plurality of expansion zones are provided, as will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 8 and 9.
- the essential difference between the exemplary embodiment of the screw cap 1 'shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 is that it does not have a weakening zone, which was identified by the reference numeral 21 in the exemplary embodiment described above.
- the predetermined breaking line 13 extends in the embodiment shown here substantially horizontally, as well as the expansion zone 17. For this as for the embodiment described above, however, that the predetermined breaking line and the expansion zones ne also at an angle to the horizontal or follow an imaginary helix can. It is essential that the predetermined breaking line 13 and the expansion zone 17 overlap in a region Ü, so that an overlapping region 31 is formed, as was also explained with reference to FIG.
- the length of the overlap in the region Ü which is indicated by a double arrow, can be selected within a wide range, as well as the measured in the direction of the axis of rotation 7 axial distance between the predetermined breaking line 13 and the expansion zone 17.
- an elastic retaining strap is also here 35, which after the first opening of the screw cap 1 'connects an upper band area 28a of the securing band 11 to a lower band area 28b and which holds the lower band area 28b of the securing band 11 in a spread position after the first opening, as described with reference to FIG Figure 4 can be seen.
- the lower band area 28b thus, the securing band 11 is then radially spread apart and arranged at a distance from the upper band region.
- the expansion zone 17 is held in the spread-open state, so that manipulations and a first opening can be clearly recognized.
- the screw cap 1 ' is formed on the opposite side, ie on the side hidden in Figure 7 accordingly. That is, the expansion zone 17a has an overlap region 31 with a second predetermined breaking line 13a, which is not visible here, so that an elastic holding strap 35a is formed here as well.
- a plurality of circumferentially spaced expansion zones can be provided. be seen. It is here - as well as in the first embodiment - possible to provide several distributed over the height of the securing band 11 expansion zones.
- FIG. 8 shows the screw cap 1 'in cross-section along the line A-B shown in FIG. It can be seen here that the predetermined breaking line 13 visible in FIG. 7 extends over a circumferential region, which by way of example comprises approximately 100 ° here. On the opposite side of a point-symmetrical designed breaking line 13a is provided.
- FIG. 9 shows a cross section through the screw cap 1 'along the line C-D shown in FIG.
- the expansion zones 17 and 17a each extend over a circumferential area of approximately 100 ° and are arranged symmetrically with respect to one another.
- the securing band 11 which is connected via a predetermined breaking line 13 to the edge 9 of the shell 5, provided with at least one expansion zone 17.
- the predetermined breaking line 13 which is not completely circumferential is formed, partially overlaps the likewise not completely encircling expansion zone 17, so that at least one overlap region 31 is given.
- the securing band 11 receives in this fixed, so not radially freely splayed area an elasticity, which facilitates the resealing of a container.
- an elastic holding strap 35 is formed, which holds the securing strap 11 after the first opening of the screw cap 1, 1 '.
- the jacket 5 facing away from the elastic band 39 of the backup strip 11 is held in the spread position at an axial distance from the upper portion of the backup tape 11 by the elastic tether 35 in the region of the expansion zone 17.
- the elastic strap 35 can hold a circumferentially blown-up securing band 11 at a radial distance from the jacket 5.
- the elastic region 39 is formed in the two screw caps 1 and 1 'in the lower band region 28b, which is not only axially spread but also in the radial direction, which was explained in more detail with reference to FIG.
- barbs lying on the inner surface of the elastic region 39 are also displaced radially outward, so that they can not interfere with the resealing of a container. At least the forces when resealing are substantially reduced.
- the basic principle of the additional expansion zone described here is realized with a single expansion zone 17. But it is also possible to provide several expansion zones seen in the circumferential direction and provided over the height of the backup tape 11, which was explained with reference to FIGS 7 to 9, but also applies to the screw cap 1. If over the height of the securing band 11 are provided a plurality of expansion zones 17, between these overlapping areas can also be provided, so that correspondingly more elastic straps arise. It is also possible for overlaps with the predetermined breaking line and / or with expansion zones to be provided at one or more expansion zones at both ends, so that elastic retaining straps are formed on both sides.
- This configuration results in a particularly great extensibility of the securing band 11 in the direction of the axis of rotation of the screw cap 1 over the height of the securing band 11.
- the support of an elastic region 39 described above is not so strong here; the spread can therefore, if the holding webs are not reinforced in this case, be reduced.
- the horizontal regional support of the backup tape 11 by one or in particular a plurality of expansion zones can also be a. adjust increased elasticity in the radial and circumferential direction, whereby a first opening and resealing are additionally facilitated.
- the weakening zone 21 which may have one or more weakened areas.
- a plurality of such weakening zones 21 can also be realized.
- the resulting from the first opening portions of the blown-up securing band 11 are then each formed analogously to the security band, which has been explained with reference to Figures 1 to 6. It is therefore necessary to adapt the number of expansion zones to the number of weakened zones in order to realize at least one retaining web and at least one elastic retaining band in each securing band region.
- the expansion zone 17 extends slightly into the retaining web 29. This is thus weakened on the one hand by a small region of the predetermined breaking line 13 and on the other hand by an area of the expansion zone 17 reaching into the retaining web 29. It must be ensured that the predetermined breaking line 13 and the expansion zone 17 in the region of the retaining web 29 have such a large distance from one another that the retaining web 29 does not break off during the first opening.
- the distance of the first weakening region 23 of the weakening zone 21 to the expansion zone 17 is 1/20 to 1/30 of the circumference of the screw cap 1.
- the predetermined minimum residual width of the holding web 29 also ensures that the holding web 29 sufficient holding forces for the elastic region 39 can muster.
- the screw caps 1, 1 ' are preferably made of plastic, in particular in the compression molding or injection molding process.
- This embodiment is characterized in that the screw is then completely made of plastic and is integrally formed.
- a securing band 11 made of plastic with a screw cap whose bottom and jacket consist of a thermoformable material, in particular of metal. Aluminum has proved particularly suitable for screw caps of the type discussed here.
- the securing band can be connected in a known manner to the edge of the jacket facing away from the bottom and, as explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 9, be formed. Even with such an embodiment, the advantages described here can be realized, if only the backup tape 11 is made of plastic.
- the screw cap 1, 1 'described here is suitable for disposable and reusable containers of all kinds made of glass, PET and the like, in particular for bottles.
