Definitions
- the present invention relates to a metallic can lid with a reclosable opening, in particular for beverage cans and for containers for storing food and other liquid, pasty, powdery and / or solid products.
- a can lid with a reclosable opening in which an opening is made in the metallic can lid and the edge of this opening is flanged to create an anchoring possibility for a prefabricated plastic closure part.
- the plastic closure part comprises a base part which is to be connected to the flanged edge of the can opening and in which an opening which is closed by a flat plug is formed.
- the flat plug is connected to the opening edge via a plastic tear seam, so that the flat plug connected to a pull tab can be released from the plastic base part by pulling on the pull tab and pivoted into an opening point.
- the opening can be temporarily closed again by pressing in the flat plug, which is preferably conical on its underside.
- Resealable can lids are also for example in the
- the object of the invention is to provide a resealable can lid which is particularly inexpensive to manufacture and yet is easy to operate on the one hand and has good sealing properties on the other hand.
- a micro-gap ensures particularly easy opening of the can lid, but a line of weakness is also generally suitable.
- An effective closure and reclosure can be achieved via the sealing and locking ribs and the associated receiving grooves. It is particularly advantageous here that the sealing frame with the fixed cover surface and the closing unit with the pivotable metallic cover area are integrally connected.
- the sealing and locking ribs form at least two, preferably three sealing edges with the receiving grooves, the sealing edges being designed such that when the can lid is opened, the radially innermost sealing edge still seals when the radially outer or both radially outer sealing edges are just solves.
- a so-called venting of a can closed with the can lid can be achieved, that is, a slow pressure reduction before the can lid is fully opened.
- the radially innermost sealing edge is at a greater distance from the cover surface than the other or the two other sealing edges.
- the innermost sealing edge loosens behind the one or the two other sealing edges, so that the venting mentioned is achieved.
- At least the radially innermost sealing edge runs in a plane that is opposite the plane of the is inclined within the micro-gap or the weakening line of the cover area, the two planes being at the greatest distance from one another on the side facing away from the pivot bearing.
- the sealing and locking ribs on the one hand and the receiving grooves on the other hand are designed such that they increasingly interlock with each other when the can lid is bulging. This can ensure that the can lid remains closed even with increasing internal pressure in the can.
- a locking rib provided on the sealing frame has an outwardly facing hook which interacts with a corresponding inwardly facing locking projection of a receptacle of the closing unit.
- the tear-open element has an opening into which an extension of the closing unit engages, the extension being connected to the tear-off element so firmly, in particular cohesively, that the extension is torn off the closing unit when the tearing member is swung up.
- This configuration creates a tamper-evident closure, ie a closure, the opening of which is irreversibly recognizable.
- the opening and the extension are provided in the area of the pivot bearing of the tear-open part. This ensures that the extension is torn off already takes place when the tear-open part is lifted, so that any manipulation of the can lid can be prevented.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a can lid according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is a top view of the top of the can lid of FIG.
- FIG. 3 shows a section along line A-A in FIG. 2,
- FIG. 7 is a plan view of the sealing frame of a can lid according to the invention.
- Fig. 9 is a section along line C-C in Fig. 7, and
- the can lid 1 shown in the figures consists of metal, in particular aluminum, and has a reclosable opening.
- a cover region 3 which can be swiveled up is provided in the cover.
- the hinged lid area 3 is separated from the fixed lid area 2 by a circumferential micro-gap 4 or a line of weakness (see in particular FIG. 6).
- a sealing frame 5 made of plastic material and enclosing the opening area is connected to the fixed cover surface 2, in particular by a so-called flot-melt process using a raft mediator to ensure a firm connection with the aluminum of the cover.
- the closing unit On the side diametrically opposite the pivot bearing 7, the closing unit is connected to a pull-up member 8 which can be swiveled up and which, in the non-swung-up state, is arranged parallel to the top side 9 of the lid.
- the tear-open member 8 is ring-shaped in a known manner and can be swiveled up around a swivel bearing 11 by engaging with a finger in an engaging end 10 relative to the cover surface.
- the sealing frame 5 and the closing unit 6 cooperate in a sealing manner via sealing and locking ribs 12, 13, 14 on the sealing frame 5 and associated receiving grooves 15, 16, 17 on the closing unit 6.
- This forms three sealing edges 18, 19, 20, through which the opening area of the can lid is sealed. Even when using a micro gap 4 between the highly pivotable lid area 3 and the fixed lid area 2 ensures a tightness of the can lid.
- the radially innermost sealing edge 18 is further away from the cover surface than the other two sealing edges 19 and 20.
- the innermost sealing edge 18 therefore still seals when the two outer sealing edges 19 and 20 open when the Can lids have just been loosened. In this way, a so-called venting of the inside of the can can take place, that is to say a slow reduction in pressure before it is completely opened.
- the radially innermost sealing edge 18 runs in a plane I which is inclined with respect to the cover plane II.
- the inclination is, for example, 1 to 2 °, in particular 1.5 °. This ensures that the innermost sealing edge 18 still seals over its entire circumference when the lid region 3 is pivoted upwards, if the two outer sealing edges 19, 20 have just come loose. When venting the inside of the can, this can prevent liquid from getting out of the inside of the can.
- the radially outermost sealing and locking rib 12 provided on the sealing frame 5 has an outwardly pointing hook 21, which has a corresponding inward locking projection 22 of the associated receptacle 15 of the closing unit 6 interacts. It is hereby achieved that the sealing and locking rib 12 increasingly hooks with the receptacle 15 or its locking projection when the can lid bulges, for example due to increasing internal pressure in the can.
- the tear-open element 8 has an opening 23 into which an extension 24 of the closing unit 6 engages.
- the extension 24 is so firm, in particular cohesive, with the tear member 8 connected that the extension 24 is torn from the closing unit 6 when the tear member 8 is swung up.
- Such a firm connection can be achieved, for example, in that the extension 24 is melted after the injection molding of this plastic part in such a way that it firmly connects to the part of the tear-open element 8 forming the opening 23. This can be done, for example, by a kind of soldering iron.
- the opening 23 and the extension 24 are provided in the region of the pivot bearing 11 of the tear-open element 8. This ensures that a slight lifting of the tear-open element 8 is sufficient to tear off the extension 24.
- the inside of the can lid is laminated with a plastic film 25, which covers the entire inside of the lid.
- the plastic film can also have an annular shape and can only extend beyond the microgap 4 or the weakening line by only a few tenths of a millimeter, in particular 3 to 4 tenths of a millimeter.
- Another possibility is to use a disc-shaped sealing film which extends radially outwards by a few tenths of a millimeter, for example 3 to 4 tenths of a millimeter, beyond the microgap 4 or the line of weakness.
- the sealing film can be designed as a largely flat disc.
- Both the annular and the disk-shaped sealing film are preferably designed as a stamped part. While the sealing frame 5 and the closing unit 6 are always attached to the outside of the can lid 1 and connected to the can lid via an adhesion promoter, the inside of the lid can also be at least largely free of laminations and the like, in contrast to the exemplary embodiment. However, the inside of the lid can be Suitable paint layer should be provided to prevent contact of the goods in the can with the metallic lid material.
- the sealing unit 6 which is integrally connected to the fixed lid area 2, overlaps the micro gap 4. In this way, a tightness of the can lid can be ensured even without a sealing film on the inside of the lid.
