Definitions
- the present invention refers to a bottle clousure system with an incorporated barrierized dispensing cap having a multiple dispensing aperture.
- Dosing caps are widely used in many technological sectors, particularly in the pharmaceutical sector, to keep separate until the time of use a first component contained in the cap, and a second component contained in the bottle.
- Probiotics are an example of an active ingredient. These ore live micro-organisims thai are normally present in our stomach and play an important role in keeping our bodies healthy and functional. Probiotics means pro-life and these are prescribed to be administered on a daily basis during an Antibiotics (meaning anti-life) medicines therapy. Well probiotics are created in culture chambers along with water and heat. Once the probiotic culture has grown and multiplied to a sufficient number count; it is hybernated through a drying procedure which prevailed the probiotic from water, this procedure freezes their life activity from expiring.
- Probiotics will regain life activity once they are rehydrated during activation via dosing clousure before consumption; It is thus fundamental that probiotics be stored in a dry compartment or dry chamber until time of use. The use of an adequate barrierized dosing clousure is thus fundamental cause it keeps the probiotic safe from dying out.
- Reduceing the air space between the dispensing cap and the liquid level in the bottle may help reduce the build up of water moisture by volume which is present in the bottle, a major cause of water vapor permeation into the dispensing caps.
- the space between the dosing cap and the liquid level is determined by the distance the dosi ⁇ g cap derived parts travel into the bottle once it is activated. This is so, because the dosing cap must be fully activated before getting the powder ingredients wet.
- the ideal dosing cap is that which can significantly reduce the distance an opening travels into the bottle by proportions to other types of dosing caps. This goal has been achieved by the multi aperture dosing clousure system. Where the aperture of the dosing has been split in half, which shortens the opening arc of previous dosing caps too over 50%. This means less space is required between the bottom of the dosing clousure system and the liquid in the bottle; which means less air being pumped into the bottle cause of gas seepings and less activation manuvcr required by the consumer
- dosing clousures are known to the art; some clousures are cited in which the bottom membrane is ruptured by a body having a slanting profile or so called oblique neck and those ( described, for example, in patents EP 1 550 619 and WO 2007/006414 in the name of the applicant) which compromises a rod-shaped body placed inside the dosing clousure, suitable to rupture the closing membrane in response to an axial pressure exerted on the upper part of the dosing clousu ⁇ e.
- Dosing Clousures have evolved significantly over the last 6 years in regards to safe consumer design and improving clousure barrier properties; though sometimes the outcome is a better product but more complicated to manufacture, because of its complexity and equipment required for assembly in order to give the clousure a complete technological feature in terms of barrierizarion properties.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a dosing elousure that maxJm ⁇ es content capcity in respect to the applicants previous multiple patents and but not limited roo its own patents.
- the new and improved design improves cycle time productivity and reduces ecological impact and this is achieved by simply transforming a single aperture dosing chamber elousure into a multiple aperture dispensing elousure, presenting a multiple activation.
- this new clousure is composed of 2 molded parts; instead of 3 ov more parts as many competitors currently market.
- FIG. 2 shows diagramrnatically, enlarged, the detail designated by A in Figure 1 ;
- FIG. 3 shows diagrarnmatidly. in section, the dosing clousure of figure 1 opened by axial pressure exerted on its upper part.
- the present invention refers to a bottle clousure system with an incorporated dispensing barrierized dispensing cap having a multiple dispensing aperture, the clousure made of high density material. which comprises a upper part, a body and a bottom and which has - between the lower end of the body and the bottom. 2 or more gaps closed by a closing seal, fixed lo the lower end of the body and easily removable.
- Figure 1 shows diagrammatically, in section, a symmetrical dosing cap 1 produced according Lo the invention; visible in Figure 1 are the body 2, the bottom 3 and the gaps 4 (as illustrated on the right and left comer sides circled and marked with letter A. more visible in the enlarged detail of Figure 2 - since the design is symmetrical we only enlarged the detail on the right side) present between the lower end of the body 2 and the bottom 3 and closed by the closing seal 5, welded or glued to the lower end of the body 2 and easily removable in response to axial pressure F ( Figure 3) excerted on the upper part 6 of the dosing cap 1.
- axial pressure F Figure 3
- the dosing clousure cap 1 is derived from that described, for example, in patent EP 1550619 in the name of Lorenzo Saulle father of the Applicant, from which ⁇ differs in that the cap has a symmetrical design which makes this new cap different and superior in that this new clousure system has two dispensing apertures on the bottom instead of one as described in the previous patents.
- This new dosing cap differs for the presence of two gaps 4 and of the closing seal 5 but, without departing from the scope of the invention, the dosing cap 1 can be derived (by providing the gap 4 and adding the closing seal 5) from another per se known dosing cap.
- the dosing cap has been integrated with a standard clousure cap into one piece as illustrated in Figure 1 body 2.
- the dosing cap 1 is made of a high density plastic material (for example, high density polyethylene: the closing seal 5 preferably consists of a thin sheet of alluminium or other per sc known material, easily tearable and/or detachable from the body 2 in response to an axial pressure F (figure 3) applied on the upper pan. of the dosing cap.
- a high density plastic material for example, high density polyethylene: the closing seal 5 preferably consists of a thin sheet of alluminium or other per sc known material, easily tearable and/or detachable from the body 2 in response to an axial pressure F (figure 3) applied on the upper pan. of the dosing cap.
- the 3 is advantageously joined to the symmetrical body 2 of the dosing cap 1 by a stem 7 which, which prevents the both bottom 3 from dropping, after breaking of the seal 5, into the bottle (omitted in the appended figures to simplify the graphic representaion) in the neck of which the dispensing cap closure protrudes into the bottle.
- Figure 2 shows diagrammatically, enlarged, the detail designated by A in Figure 1 and makes it possible to see the gaps 4 present between the bottom 3 of the closing cap and the lower part of the body 2 of the closing seal 5 which closes the two separated independent gaps 4.
- Figure 3 shows diagrammatically. in section, the dosing clousure cap of figure 1. opened by the axial pressure F exerted on the upper part 6 thereof which, by sliding in the body 2, has caused, by means of the rod-shaped body 8 detachment or rupture of the seal 5 and opening of the bottom 3, which remains attached to the body 2 by means of the stem 7.
