Description
- The present invention relates to a container with an anti-loss and anti-idle-rotation cap, which prevents the loss of the cap, and prevents the cap from idly rotating while contents are discharged out of the container, thus affording convenience and an improved sensation of use, and which prevents the contents from flowing into the cap when the contents are taken out of the container, thus preventing the contamination of the cap.
- Generally, a container, which is used to hold liquid materials, including food and beverages, such as potable water or milk, oil, paints, and chemical products, is provided with a container body which has a spout, and a cap which opens or closes the spout of the container body. The cap is detachably coupled to the spout to open or close it through a screw-type coupling method or a pressure-type coupling method using an elastic hooking end.
- As shown in
FIGS. 33 and 34 , acap 130 is provided with anannular indication ring 133 under acap body 131 in such a way that the annular indication ring is not removed from acontainer body 110, and enables a user to see whether acontainer 100 is opened or not. - The
cap body 131 and theindication ring 133 are connected to each other via a plurality ofradial bridges 135. When the cap is opened, thebridges 135 connecting thecap body 131 with theindication ring 133 are cut, thus leaving evidence that the container has been opened. - In such a container, after the
cap body 131 is detached from thecontainer body 110 to open the container when a user desires to take some of the contents out of the container, the cap body is coupled to the container body again. The detaching and coupling operations are repeatedly conducted. Meanwhile, when the cap body is completely removed from the indication ring, the cap may be contaminated or lost. Thus, in order to solve this problem, the indication ring and the container body may be connected to each other in such a way that part of the indication ring is not removed from the container body. - However, since the
indication ring 133 is coupled to thecontainer body 110 in such a way as to be idly rotated, the openedcap body 131 is idly rotated together with the indication ring and is moved to a lower position by gravity when the contents are discharged out of the container. - Thus, when a user puts his or her mouth to the container body in order to drink contents, the cap body contacts his or her mouth or jaw, thus giving the user an unpleasant feeling and being cumbersome. Further, when the contents are transferred to another container, the flowing contents pass by the cap, so that the cap becomes dirty and interferes with the discharge of the contents.
- Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a container with an anti-idle-rotation cap, which is provided with an indication ring which makes it possible to check whether the container has been opened or not, and prevents the loss and idle rotation of the cap when the container is open, thus preventing the cap from rotating downwards due to gravity when contents are discharged out of the container, preventing the cap from contacting a user's face when the user drinks directly from the container, and preventing the cap from being covered by the contents when the contents are taken out of the container, therefore preventing the contamination of the cap.
- In order to accomplish the above object, the present invention provides a container with an anti-loss and anti-idle-rotation cap, including a cap which includes a cap body having in an inner circumference threads, an indication ring provided under the cap body in such a way that the indication ring is not removed from a container body, and a plurality of bridges connecting the cap body to the indication ring and being easily cut when the cap is twisted; and the container body which includes a threaded fastening part provided on a spout of the container body to correspond to the cap body, a ring stopping step provided under the threaded fastening part so as to prevent removal of the indication ring, a support step provided under the ring stopping step to support the indication ring, and an indication ring seat provided between the ring stopping step and the support step, wherein the cap body and the indication ring are integrally coupled at a predetermined portion thereof with each other via a coupling part so that the cap body and the indication ring are not separated from each other, and a wedge and a wedge hole are provided on the cap body and the indication ring, or are provided on the cap body and the container body, so that the cap body is locked to the indication ring or the container body when the cap is opened to be adjacent to the coupling part.
- As described above, the present invention provides a container with an anti-loss and anti-idle-rotation cap, which is provided with an indication ring which makes it possible to check whether the container is opened or not, and prevents the loss and idle rotation of the cap when the cap is opened, thus preventing the cap from rotating downwards due to gravity when contents are discharged out of the container, preventing the cap from contacting a user's face when the user drinks directly from the container, and preventing the cap from being covered by the contents when the contents are taken out of the container, therefore preventing the contamination of the cap.

cap body 31, thecap support strip 343, and theindication ring 33 are arranged in a zigzag fashion by thehorizontal cut part 337, so that the coupling length is increased when the cap is opened. - A
second bridge 336 may be provided on thehorizontal cut part 337. - Further, a
lever type wedge 323 protrudes from thecap body 31 in such a way as to be inclined relative to a vertical direction, and supports thecap support strip 343. Theindication ring 33 includes aguide groove 333 which is concavely formed in thehorizontal cut part 337 so that thelever type wedge 323 is fitted into the guide groove. - The
lever type wedge 323 is formed to be supported by thecontainer body 31 when the cap is opened. - Further, the outer portion of the
lever type wedge 323 is curved to correspond to the outer circumference of the spout of the container body 10 (seeFIGS. 16 and 17 ). This construction is more important in the case where thelever type wedge 323 is wide. - Further, as shown in
FIGS. 18 to 20 , thecoupling part 34 may comprise afoldable coupler 341 which is foldable at the central portion thereof and protrudes outwards. Reference numeral ‘342’ denotes a folding line. - According to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in
FIGS. 21 to 25 , theindication ring 33 is provided with a locking protrusion c, which is locked to thecontainer body 10 so as to prevent the rotation of the cap when no external force is applied thereto. - Preferably, the locking protrusion c comprises flexible locking
protrusions 331 which are radially formed on the inner circumference of theindication ring 33, and lockingholes 141 are formed in the outer circumference of theindication ring seat 14 of the container body to correspond to theflexible locking protrusions 331. - The locking holes 141 comprise a plurality of locking holes which are continuously formed at the same pitch as the
flexible locking protrusions 331. Alternatively, the locking holes may comprise one or two locking holes. - Even if there is no locking
hole 141, the lockingprotrusions 331 are caught by theindication ring seat 14 when the cap is opened, so that the idle rotation of theindication ring 33 is prevented. - Further, as shown in
FIGS. 26 and 27 , the locking protrusion c comprises aserrated locking protrusion 335 which is provided on the lower surface of theindication ring 33, and atoothed locking part 155 is provided on the upper surface of thesupport step 15 of the container body to correspond to theserrated locking protrusion 335. - The locking protrusion c prevents the rotation of the
indication ring 33 relative to thecap body 31 when the cap is rotated to be opened, and generates torsion force to cut thebridges 35 when the cap is opened first. Further, the locking protrusion functions to prevent the idle rotation of the cap as long as external force is not applied to the cap. - According to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in
FIG. 28 , the extent to which theindication ring 33 is fitted into theindication ring seat 14 is controlled, so that the idle rotation of the indication ring is prevented, as long as no external force is applied to the indication ring. - That is, the wedge a and the wedge hole b are formed on the
cap body 31 and theindication ring 33, and the indication ring and the container body have no locking structure and are smooth. Thereby, the indication ring and the container body are coupled to each other through press fitting, so that the idle rotation of the cap is prevented. - According to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in
FIGS. 29 and 30 ,variable wings 338 serving as the locking protrusion c are radially formed on the inner circumference of theindication ring 33. Each of thevariable wings 338 is folded when the cap is fitted over the container body, so that the variable wing does not interfere with the assembly of the cap with the container body, and each of the variable wings is unfolded towards thecontainer body 10 when the cap is opened, thus preventing the idle rotation of theindication ring 33. - Each
variable wing 338 extends from a lower position to an upper position on the inner circumference of the indication ring. Thus, when the indication ring is fitted over the container body, the variable wing smoothly passes over thering stopping step 13. Meanwhile, when upward pressure is applied to the indication ring so as to open the cap, each variable wing comes into contact with theindication ring seat 14 of the container body, so that the idle rotation of the indication ring is prevented. - According to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in
FIGS. 31 and 32 , lockingpieces 339 serving as the locking protrusion c are radially formed on the inner circumference of theindication ring 33. The lockingpieces 339 do not interfere with the assembly of the cap with the container body due to elasticity, when the cap is fitted over the container body, and are inclined to prevent the idle rotation of theindication ring 33. - The operation of the
container 1 with the anti-loss and anti-idle-rotation cap according to the present invention, which is constructed as described above, will be described below. - According to the present invention, in the container having the
indication ring 33 which makes it possible to check whether the container has been opened, when the cap is twisted and opened, thebridges 35 are cut, thus providing evidence that the container has been opened. Simultaneously, the coupling of thecap 30 with theindication ring 33 is maintained via thecoupling part 34. The wedge a and the wedge hole b are formed on thecap body 31 and theindication ring 33, or are formed on thecap body 31 and thecontainer body 10 in such a way that the wedge is detachably locked to the wedge hole. Thus, when the cap is opened and bent backwards while being lightly pushed, thecap body 31 is locked to theindication ring 33 or thecontainer body 10. - Further, when the
horizontal cut part 337 is formed to be offset from the layer having thebridges 35, and the cap is opened, thecap body 31, thecap support strip 343, and theindication ring 33 are arranged in a zigzag fashion, so that spare length is ensured when thecap body 31 is detached from thecontainer body 10. - Meanwhile, when the
lever type wedge 323 supports the cap support strip 343 (seeFIGS. 11 to 16 ), thelever type wedge 323 is easily fitted between thering stopping step 13 of thecontainer body 10 and the thread through theguide groove 333 formed in the horizontal cut part of the indication ring 33 (seeFIG. 15 ). - As such, the coupling of the
cap body 31 with theindication ring 33 is always maintained, so that the loss of the cap is prevented. Further, when thecap body 31 detached from thecontainer body 10 is bent backwards, the cap body is locked to theindication ring 33 or thecontainer body 10. - Meanwhile, in the case of the
foldable coupler 341, when thecap body 31 is opened, the foldable coupler is unfolded and has the function of the coupling part. - According to the present invention, the container, which has the indication ring for checking whether the container has been opened, prevents the loss and idle rotation of the cap when the cap is opened, thus preventing the cap from rotating downwards due to gravity when contents are discharged out of the container, and preventing the cap from contacting a user's face even if the cap is not held in the hand when the user drinks directly from the container, and preventing contents from flowing into the cap when the contents are taken out of the container body, therefore preventing the contamination of the cap.
- Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims.
- As described above, the present invention provides a container with an anti-loss and anti-idle-rotation cap, which is provided with an indication ring which makes it possible to check whether the container is opened or not, and prevents the loss and idle rotation of the cap when the cap is opened, thus preventing the cap from rotating downwards due to gravity when contents are discharged out of the container, preventing the cap from contacting a user's face when the user drinks directly from the container, and preventing the cap from being covered by the contents when the contents are taken out of the container, therefore preventing the contamination of the cap.
