Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tamper-proof lid for a container, which container has an opening edge surrounding an upper container opening, in particular flared opening edge, with a lid portion substantially covering the upper container opening and a lid edge extending substantially downwards in the direction of the container, which at least in places a locking element engages under the cross-locking element which is irrevocably separated from the lid, in particular together with a lower Randendabterrorism the lid edge for removing the lid from the container.
  • Such a cover is from the US-A-5002198 known.
  • the corresponding cover part is placed from above on the opening edge and covers the container opening. With this cover part of the lid edge is connected, which extends from the lid part vertically downwards.
  • the lid edge is substantially tangent to the rolled-up or flanged container edge and from its free end is a locking element, which ends below the opening edge and this engages below substantially.
  • a part of the lid edge and in particular a lower edge end portion is separated together with the locking element. Then the lid can be removed from the container. Due to the irrevocable separation of Randendabites with locking element from the rest of the lid is essentially ensured that even when still or re-attached lid is determined whether this has already been removed by another user or at least prepared for losing weight. This makes it possible to detect any manipulation or attempt to break up or open the container.
  • Such a cover can prevent, for example, that the corresponding container is opened, the content influenced in some way or partially removed and then the container is closed again, without the opening of the container is visible from the outside.
  • the invention is therefore an object of the invention to improve a tamper-proof cover of the type mentioned in that this secured in a structurally simple manner against any manipulation of the locking element for removing the lid and on the other hand, the closure function of the lid is guaranteed safe.
  • the invention is characterized in particular by the fact that the cover edge extends from the cover part substantially obliquely downwards and outwards and the locking element is designed as a peripheral circumferential edge of the lid locking edge.
  • peripheral locking edge lacks possibilities to intervene laterally between the locking edge and the obliquely extending edge of the cover and, for example, thereby releasing the locking edge from engagement below the edge of the container.
  • the corresponding locking edge can not be brought into a substantially vertical arrangement without simultaneous manipulation of the lid edge in order to optionally remove the lid from the container. Instead, is held by the oblique arrangement of the lid edge of the corresponding locking edge even when resting against the lid edge from the inside in a certain angle, so that a passing past the opening edge for removing the lid without visible traces is almost impossible.
  • the tamper resistance of the lid according to the invention is increased in a simple manner.
  • the placement of the lid on the container by the distribution of elasticity on the lid edge and locking edge lighter, without thereby tamper resistance or the tightness of the lid is reduced.
  • the corresponding cover part has different shapes.
  • the geometric shape of the cover part along the opening edge substantially corresponds to the shape of the container opening.
  • the cover part is arched, bent or otherwise deformed in the direction of the interior of the container, for example, or is also correspondingly deformed away from the container.
  • a simple lid part which is also easy to produce, can be essentially flat. This is then on the edge of the container and covers the entire container opening to secure it against external influences and at the same time to seal the container interior.
  • the lid part may have a circumferentially circumferential and substantially vertically upwardly projecting edge flange.
  • the lid edge can be connected directly to the flat lid part or to the edge flange.
  • a simple example of a direct connection to the edge flange can be seen therein when the lid edge has a substantially inverted U-shaped upper Having edge end portion, wherein the edge flange is inserted into the U-opening and secured there.
  • the depth of the U-opening may correspond substantially to the vertical length of the edge flange.
  • the edge flange is encompassed on both sides by the corresponding U-legs of the upper edge end portion and can be attached to these, for example, by gluing, heat sealing or otherwise.
  • the lid edge between the upper Randendabites and its lower end at least an upper and a lower edge portion which extend obliquely outward away from the lid part and which by a essentially vertical intermediate edge portion are connected.
  • This intermediate edge portion can in particular be used to bear against the opening edge from the outside, so that the lid is securely placed on the container and held there even in irrevocably separated lower Randendabites.
  • the already mentioned lower edge end portion may in this context be designed so that it extends substantially vertically between the lower edge portion and the lower end of the lid edge.
  • the gap between the lower edge end portion and the container wall is smaller than in a skewed course of this lower edge end portion, so that there is less space for possible manipulations.
  • the substantially vertical course of the intermediate edge section and the lower edge end section can also be replaced by a certain oblique course of these sections, these sections running obliquely outwards at a smaller angle of inclination than the upper and lower edge sections.
  • a stabilization of the lower edge end portion and thus also a stabilization of the locking edge can result from the fact that at least the lower edge end portion is formed in two layers with outer and inner layer. As a result, this lower edge end section has increased rigidity, which on the one hand makes it more difficult to manipulate it to remove the cover and, on the other hand, reinforces the locking edge.
  • the locking edge may be formed as an extension of the inner layer. He simply extends in extension of the inner layer in the direction of the container to engage under the corresponding opening edge.
  • the locking edge can protrude directly as an extension of the inner layer in the region of the lower edge end portion.
  • this inner layer at least partially extends into the lower edge portion and the corresponding angle of inclination of this edge portion for deflecting the inner layer and thus the locking edge towards the container wall is used.
  • the inclination angle of the lower edge portion can also be continued in the locking edge, so that it extends obliquely upwards in the direction of the container wall with the lid attached to the container and engages under the opening edge.
  • the elasticity for deflecting the lid edge and the locking edge and thus for placing the lid on the container is divided between lid edge and locking edge.
  • the locking edge is elastically deflected radially outward. This concerns at least the part of the locking edge projecting from the lower edge section or lower edge end section.
  • the locking edge may have at its free end a substantially parallel to the container wall with the lid attached cutting edge.
  • This Thomasendkante can also rest directly on the container wall with attached lid.
  • a tear handle can protrude from the edge of the lid.
  • the Aufr possesshandhabe example can protrude approximately perpendicularly from the edge of the lid so that it can be easily grasped laterally from the lid edge and then used to separate the corresponding part of the lid.
  • the tear handle extending in extension of the lid edge at its lower end.
  • a substantially vertical tear-open aid can be formed in the lid edge in the region of the tear handle and in particular on its front edge in the tearing direction. If the tear-handle is then grasped and moved in the tear-open direction, tearing of the lid edge along the vertical tear-open aid takes place first, followed by a further separation of the corresponding part of the lid edge substantially in the circumferential direction.
  • Such a tear-open can be designed in different ways. In general, it is designed as a material weakening line.
  • a material weakening line may be a material thinning, a perforation or the like.
  • the Randabr detailed beautiful can be similar to the Aufr regarding Vietnamese formed as a material weakening line.
  • the Randabrmonyiere can with attached on the container lid closer to the lower end of the Cover edge may be arranged as the opening edge. This ensures that at least as much of the lid edge remains after tearing off the corresponding part, that it extends substantially over the opening edge down and allows a re-placement of the lid and secure holding the lid on the container is.
  • the lid can be made entirely or even partially of a plastic material. This may be at least partially transparent or translucent, which may apply in particular to the cover part. As a result, the interior of the container is visible.
  • An easy-to-produce and easy-to-recycle lid may result in that the lid is formed essentially of one or more layers of paper. In addition, such a paper layer is easily printable for promotional purposes or to indicate the contents of the cup.
  • a fluid-tight plastic film can be applied to its underside.
  • a plastic film is additionally prevented, for example, in the case of a liquid in the container, the paper layer the lid and in particular the lid part softened by the liquid and optionally optically unfavorably influenced.
  • the lid or one of its parts consists not only of a paper layer, but of interconnected and in particular laminated paper layers. It has already been pointed out that at least in the region of the lower edge end section there is a two-layered structure, wherein the locking edge is formed by the inner layer. Again, the appropriate layer may be a paper layer.
  • the lid In order to be able to store the lid in a simple manner for closing the containers or after their production, the lid can be stackable and unstackable.
  • Such stackability and final stackability can be achieved, for example, by virtue of an inner diameter of the lid edge being larger than an outer diameter of the upper edge end portion, at least at its lower end.
  • a corresponding relation between inner diameter and outer diameter can also be present for the lower edge end section, possibly in the region of the lower edge section, whereby the stackability of the cover is improved.
  • the locking edge may be formed as a stack stop element, which rests in stacked lids from the outside and in particular at the top of the upper edge end.
  • FIG. 1 shows a side, partially sectioned view of an embodiment of a lid 1 according to the invention on a cup-shaped container. 2
  • the container 2 has an upper container opening 3, see also the other figures, which is surrounded by an outwardly flared opening edge 4. At its lower end, a bottom part is inserted in the container 2 and held there in a conventional manner by an inwardly bent end portion of a container wall 24 and sealed.
  • the lid 1 is placed at the top of the container 2, which comprises a substantially flat cover part 5, which abuts sealingly on the opening edge 4 from above.
  • the Lid 1 also has a lid edge 6 which extends obliquely downwards and outwards from the lid part 5.
  • the lid edge 6 extends along the opening edge 4 in the circumferential direction 9 around the container.
  • a tear handle 27 is arranged on the lid edge 6 is in particular at a lower end 14, see also FIG. 2 . This is graspable by a user and movable along a tearing direction 29 substantially in the circumferential direction 9 around the container 2, see also FIGS. 6a, 6b and 7 ,
  • a tear-open aid 30 is formed as a material weakening line 31 in the lid edge 6 , This extends substantially vertically upward in the direction of the opening edge 4.
  • Perpendicular to the Aufr regarding Anlagen 30 extends in the circumferential direction 9 and also in the tear 29 a Randabr employ Anlagen 32. This is also designed as a material weakening line.
  • the lid By separating the corresponding part of the lid edge for removing the lid 1, one obtains an indication that container 2 with lid 1 is already in use or at least first attempts have been made to remove the lid 1 from the container 2. As a result, the lid is tamper-proof, since this attempt to open can not be undone and is always determined by another user.
  • FIG. 2 is a detail "X" off FIG. 1 shown enlarged.
  • Like parts are indicated by like reference characters throughout the figures, and are sometimes mentioned only in connection with a figure.
  • the container 2 has at the upper end of its container wall 24 an outwardly flared opening edge 4.

  • a fluid-tight plastic film 34 is applied to the lid part 5.
  • the cover part 5 as well as the remaining part of the lid 1 is otherwise formed from one or more paper layers 38. Instead of a paper layer, it is also possible to use two paper layers connected to each other in particular by lamination, corresponding to one or more cardboard layers and the like.
  • a lid edge 6 of the lid 1 is connected via its edge flange 11. This cover edge 6 extends obliquely downwards and outwards from the cover part 5.
  • the lid edge 6 has an upper edge end portion 12. This is essentially inverted U-shaped. In a corresponding U-opening 13 of the edge flange 11 is inserted and fastened there between the corresponding U-legs.
  • the lid edge 6 then has, at the upper edge end section 12, an upper edge section 15, an intermediate edge section 17, a lower edge section 16 and a lower edge end section 8.
  • Upper and lower edge portions 15, 16 extend at an inclination angle outward relative to the container 2.
  • Intermediate edge portion 17 and lower edge end portion 8 are inclined less towards the outside and can also be substantially vertical, see FIGS. 7a to 7 ,
  • FIG. 3 The corresponding angles of inclination of upper edge section 15, intermediate edge section 17, lower edge section 16 and lower edge end section 8 are shown in FIG FIG. 3 shown there, the reference numerals 18, 19, 20 and 21st

  • the inclination angles 20, 21 are different, wherein in particular the inclination angle 21 may be greater than the inclination angle 20.
  • the edge tear-off aid 32 can be seen below the opening edge 4. This is arranged at a smaller distance from the lower end 14 of the lid edge 6, as a bottom of the opening edge 4.

  • the lower edge end portion 8 is substantially two-layered of an outer layer 22 and an inner layer 23, see also FIG. 3 built up. This two-layer structure results from folding or bending an extension of the outer layer as an inner layer on the inner side of the outer layer and corresponding joining of both layers at least in the region of the lower edge end section 8. Otherwise, the inner layer 23 is a continuation of the outer layer 22.

  • This structuring is formed by a plurality of recesses or elevations arranged in the circumferential direction 9.
  • FIG. 3 two superimposed lid 2 are shown, which are stacked.
  • an inner diameter 35 from the lower edge end section 8 is greater than an outer diameter 36 of the upper edge end section 12.
  • the two covers 2 are at least as far stackable that the upper edge end portion 12 of a lower lid to the bottom of the locking edge 10, see also FIG. 5 , is inserted in the upper lid.
  • the locking edge 10 forms at least in the embodiment FIG. 3 a stack stop element 37, which rests from above and substantially outside on the upper edge end portion 8 of the lower lid 2.
  • FIG. 5 run lower edge end portion 8 and upper edge end portion 12 is substantially vertical, so that the stacked lid are accurately arranged one above the other and inserting the lower lid in the upper lid until approximately to rest the lower end 14 of the upper lid with the upper edge portion 15.
  • FIGS. 6a and b and 7 Further embodiments of a tear handle 27 are shown.
  • FIG. 6b is the separable part of the lid edge 6 at least partially already solved.

  • the lid edge 6 and according to the locking edge 10 a placement of the lid 1 on the container 2 is possible.
  • the container 2 in the region of the opening edge 4 or the container wall 24 is at least partially elastic, so that this can deform elastically when placing the lid.
  • FIGS. 4a to 7 is another difference that there the cover part 5 extends substantially to the lower end of the upper edge portion 15 radially outwardly and terminates approximately to the outer contour of the opening edge 4. This results in a better sealing of the container 2 by the cover part 5.
  • a smaller gap between the lid edge 6 and opening edge 4 remains, see for example FIG. 2 compared to Figure 4c ,
  • FIGS. 4a to 7 is shown in particular as the free end 25 of the locking edge 10 engages in the gap opening 39 between the container wall and the opening edge 4.
