Furthermore, this kind of bottle cap has a complicated structure and is therefore quite hard to manufacture.
- In view of the above, the inventor has invented this invention after thorough study of the problems mentioned above.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an anti-theft bottle cap having simpler structure and better anti-theft performance. The present invention can more effectively protect the contents inside the bottle.

- Preferably, an annular supporting wall extends upwardly from a top side of the lower cap; a positioning piece is provided on an outer wall of the annular supporting wall; a positioning trough cooperating with the positioning piece is provided on an inner wall of the upper cap.
- Preferably, a first annular flange extending downwardly is provided inside the upper cap; an engagement slot is provided at an outer wall of the first annular flange; a sealing ring is provided in the engagement slot; an engagement block corresponding to the engagement slot is provided on an inner wall of the opening; sealed connection is achieved between the first annular flange and the opening via the engagement slot, the sealing ring and the engagement block.
- Preferably, a flow guiding element upwardly extending from an output end of the opening is provided; a flow guiding opening in communication with the opening is formed at a side wall of the flow guiding element; a backflow trough is formed between an outer wall of the flow guiding element and an inner wall of the annular supporting wall; a height of the backflow trough at a position corresponding to the flow guiding opening is smaller than heights of other positions of the backflow trough.

The flip plate is a grabbing part which is grabbed to facilitate opening of the upper cap when it is necessary to pour liquid oil out of the bottle. Since the flip plate partially blocks the anti-theft mechanism, it is very useful for position limiting of the anti-theft mechanism. In other words, the anti-theft mechanism can be prevented from being pried undamaged. If the anti-theft mechanism is forced to free from the limiting effect of the flip plate for opening the upper cap, the anti-theft mechanism will be damaged due to being overly deformed. As such, even when the upper cap is capped again on the lower cap, damage of the anti-theft mechanism can be easily discerned. Users will therefore be alerted of the prying of the bottle. Also, the present invention does not require another grabbing piece for opening the upper cap. Therefore, the present invention has an overall simpler structure and achieves better anti-theft effect.

FIGS. 1-11 , an anti-theft bottle cap comprises alower cap 1 and anupper cap 2; theupper cap 2 is connected with a top part of thelower cap 1 and is capable of being flipped opened with respect to thelower cap 1; ananti-theft mechanism 3 is provided between theupper cap 2 and thelower cap 1; anopening 5 in communication with an interior of acontainer 6 is provided on thelower cap 1; the anti-theft bottle cap also comprises aflip plate 21 which prevents prying of theanti-theft mechanism 3; theflip plate 21 corresponds to theanti-theft mechanism 3 and is mounted on theupper cap 2 and extends to a position on theanti-theft mechanism 3. The present invention is preferably used on oil product container such as lubricant container. Theupper cap 2 and thelower cap 1 are molded as a one whole piece using plastic material. The plastic material is preferably good at anti-bacterial and dust-proof properties, resistant to harsh weather, antioxidant, antistatic electricity and has good tenacity and strength, so that the bottle cap can be used in different environmental conditions. - A preferred embodiment of the
anti-theft mechanism 3 comprises a tear-able element on thelower cap 1 andlocking pieces 32 provided on theupper cap 2;locking holes 34 corresponding to thelocking pieces 32 are provided on the tear-able element. Preferably, an inwardly recessed supportingplatform 11 is provided on thelower cap 1; the tear-able element comprises connectingrods 33 andtear strip 31; lower ends of the connectingrods 33 are connected on the supportingplatform 11; upper ends of the connectingrods 33 are connected with thetear strip 31; thelocking holes 34 are provided on thetear strip 31. In a preferably embodiment, one end of theflip plate 21 is connected with theupper cap 2, and another end of theflip plate 21 is a free end inclined and extended downwardly. Alocking slot 22 is formed between theflip plate 21 and an outer wall of theupper cap 2. An upper end of thetear strip 31 is provided with aposition limiting slot 36; the upper end of thetear strip 31 is concealed within thelocking slot 22, and theflip plate 21 abuts against theposition limiting slot 36. - Preferably, the outer wall of the
upper cap 2 is provided with a connectingplate 23; thelocking pieces 32 are provided on the connectingplate 23; outer boundaries of thelocking pieces 32 and theflip plate 21 are radially within an outer diameter of thelower cap 1. Therefore, in an automatic assembling process of the bottle cap when a robotic arm grabs the bottle cap, the robotic arm will not easily touch theupper cap 2, the flip plate and theanti-theft mechanism 3 while grabbing thelower cap 1, thereby ensuring the anti-theft effect intended by the present invention. - Preferably, at least one of two ends of the
tear strip 31 along a lengthwise direction of thetear strip 31 is provided with ahead portion 35 for conveniently tearing off the tear-able element. In the embodiment, thehead portion 35 extends outwardly to facilitate grabbing by a user. When the connectingrods 33 are tom off via thetear strip 31, remove thetear strip 31 and the connectingrods 33 and open theupper cap 1, liquid oil inside the container can be poured out. - In the present invention, an annular supporting wall 4 extends upwardly from a top side of the
lower cap 1. Specifically, the supportingplatform 11 is provided on thelower cap 1, wherein the supportingplatform 11 extends laterally from the an outer wall of thelower cap 1 towards a center part of thelower cap 1, and the annular supporting wall 4 is provided on the supportingplatform 11. In the present invention, a protrudingpositioning piece 41 is provided on one of an outer wall of the annular supporting wall 4 and an inner wall of theupper cap 2, and apositioning trough 42 cooperating with thepositioning piece 41 is provided on another one of the outer wall of the annular supporting wall 4 and the inner wall of theupper cap 2. When theupper cap 2 caps on thelower cap 1, thepositioning piece 41 locks against thepositioning trough 42 so that the inner wall of theupper cap 2 and the outer wall of the annular supporting wall 4 mutually abut against each other. This kind of structure can at least achieve two beneficial effects; 1. Since the annular supporting wall 4 can position theupper cap 2, the outer wall of the upper cap will not easily deform and displace when theupper cap 2 is subject to compression force from its periphery towards its center, and theupper cap 2 will not disengage with thelower cap 1; 2. Due to the cooperation between thepositioning piece 41 and thepositioning trough 42, when theupper cap 2 caps on thelower cap 2, a click sound generated upon engagement can indicate whether theupper cap 2 is completely capped on thelower cap 1, thereby preventing the liquid oil from turning bad or being accidentally poured out from thecontainer 6 due to the failure the cap theupper cap 2 completely on thelower cap 1. - In the present invention, a first
annular flange 43 extending downwardly is provided inside theupper cap 1. A sealing mechanism is provided between an outer wall of the firstannular flange 43 and an inner wall of theopening 5. The sealing mechanism comprises anengagement slot 44, anengagement block 46 and a sealingring 45 disposed inside theengagement slot 44; one of theengagement slot 44 and theengagement block 46 is provided on the outer wall of the firstannular flange 43, another one of theengagement slot 44 and theengagement block 46 is provided on the inner wall of theopening 5. Sealing effect achieved by the cooperation between theengagement slot 44, theengagement block 46 and the sealingring 45 prevents liquid oil from being poured out accidentally from theopening 5 and also blocks air from the external environment from entering into thecontainer 6 causing the liquid oil to turn bad. - The present invention also comprises a flow guiding element surrounding an edge of the
opening 5; aflow guiding opening 50 in communication with theopening 5 is formed at a side wall of the flow guiding element. Inner side of the side wall of the flow guiding element and the inner wall of theopening 5 form an outflow passage. When theupper cap 2 is opened, the liquid inside thecontainer 6 can be poured out through the outflow passage. Abackflow trough 52 is formed between an outer wall of the flow guiding element and an inner wall of the annular supporting wall 4. A height of thebackflow trough 52 at a position corresponding to theflow guiding opening 50 is smaller than heights of other positions of thebackflow trough 52. - Preferably, the flow guiding element comprises a first supporting
side wall 56, a third supportingside wall 58, and a second supportingside wall 57 in between a first end of the first supportingside wall 56 and a first end the third supportingside wall 58 for joining the first supportingside wall 56 and the third supportingside wall 58. The first supportingside wall 56, the second supportingside wall 57 and the third supportingside wall 58 are integrally molded as a one whole piece. Theflow guiding opening 50 is positioned between a second end of the first supportingside wall 56 and a second end of the third supportingside wall 58; Thebackflow trough 52 at the position corresponding to theflow guiding opening 50 is configured as aflow guiding portion 53; theflow guiding portion 53 is inclined downwardly and extends into theopening 5 so as to guide liquid oil to flow from theflow guiding portion 53 back to the container. Thebackflow trough 52 at a position corresponding to the second supportingside wall 57 is configured as a receivingportion 54. Thebackflow trough 52 gradually decreases in height from the receivingportion 54 to theflow guiding portion 53. Due to this kind of structure, drips of liquid oil spilled out of a main outflow path when pouring out the liquid oil from the container may drip onto the receivingportion 54 of thebackflow trough 52; when theupper cap 2 is again capped onto thelower cap 1 and the container stands on a level ground, the liquid oil will gradually flow back to theflow guiding portion 53 along thebackflow trough 52 under gravitational force, and then flow back into the container from theflow guiding portion 53 through theopening 5. Due to the use of the first supportingside wall 56, the second supportingside wall 57 and the third supportingside wall 58, liquid oil is converged to the second supportingside wall 57 when it is poured out; due to such converged outflow path, the liquid oil can be poured out smoothly and will not easily spill out. - Preferably, a lower end of the second supporting
side wall 57 is fixed on thelower cap 1; an upper end of the second supportingside wall 57 is a free end; aflow directing portion 571 is disposed on the free end; theflow directing portion 571 inclines and extends upwardly. The use of this structure can prevent liquid oil from dripping out of the main outflow path and hanging on a side wall of the flow guiding element after pouring out the liquid oil from the container. - The present invention also comprises a
flow guiding tongue 51 disposed inside the outflow passage; theflow guiding tongue 51 is connected inside of the outflow passage through joiningpart 59; a breathing throughhole 55 is provided on the joiningpart 59. - Preferably, positional references in the description are made based on an upright position of the container placed on a level ground after the bottle cap is installed on the container. A lower end surface of the joining
part 59 is provided with aflow diverting portion 70 that extends downwardly; an upper end surface of theflow diverting portion 70 joins with the lower end surface of the joiningpart 59; a lower end surface of the flow diverting portion is afree end 73; a firstvertical wall 71 and a secondvertical wall 72 are provided between thefree end 73 and the upper end surface of theflow diverting portion 70. Compared with the secondvertical wall 72, the firstvertical wall 71 is closer to a center of thelower cap 1. The secondvertical wall 72, the lower end surface of the joiningpart 59 and an inner side surface of thelower cap 1 form aflow limiting trough 74. The breathing throughhole 55 runs from the upper end surface of theflow diverting portion 70 and through the firstvertical wall 71. By virtue of this structure, liquid pouring out from the container is guided by theflow diverting portion 70 and theflow limiting trough 74 so as to prevent the liquid from blocking the breathing through hole when the liquid is being poured out, thereby facilitating smooth pouring process of the liquid. - Preferably, an end of the joining
part 59 is positioned corresponding to theflow guiding opening 50 and is mounted at an inner wall of theopening 5; another end of the joiningpart 59 extends laterally. Theflow guiding tongue 51 is positioned between the second end of the first supportingside wall 56 and the second end of the third supportingside wall 58; one end of theflow guiding tongue 51 is fixed onto the joiningpart 59; another end of theflow guiding tongue 51 inclines and extends upwardly towards a central axis of theopening 5, and is provided with a blockingportion 511. By virtue of this structure, the liquid oil is poured out from the container, the liquid oil will not touch theflow guiding tongue 51 when there is only a small amount of liquid oil being poured out. Due to the small amount of liquid oil being poured out, spilling of oil will not easily occur. When there is a large amount of liquid oil being poured out, the liquid oil touches theflow guiding tongue 51 and being guided by theflow guiding tongue 51 and the blockingportion 511, and the user will also become aware that the amount of liquid oil to be poured out should be carefully controlled. Because of the breathing throughhole 55 enabling air communication inside and outside thecontainer 6, negative pressure will not be easily formed inside thecontainer 6, thereby facilitating smooth pouring process of the liquid. - The inner wall of the
lower cap 1 is provided with a threadedportion 17; outer threads (not shown in the figures) cooperating with the threadedportion 17 are provided at abottle mouth 61 of thecontainer 6. An anti-rotation mechanism is provided between thelower cap 1 and thebottle mouth 61. The anti-rotation mechanism comprisesanti-returning locks 12 provided in the inner wall of thelower cap 1 andanti-returning blocks 63 cooperating with the anti-returning locks 12; the anti-returning blocks 63 are provided on an outer wall of thebottle mouth 61; the anti-returning locks 12 are provided between the threadedportion 17 and the lower end surface of thelower cap 1. - The anti-rotation mechanism also comprises a blocking
trough 14 and aposition limiting block 62; the blockingtrough 14 is provided at the lower end of thelower cap 1; theposition limiting block 62 is positioned on thebottle mouth 61 corresponding to the blockingtrough 14. Preferably, the blockingtrough 14 runs through from an outer wall of thelower cap 1 out through an inner wall of thelower cap 1, and extends from a lower end surface of thelower cap 1 up to an upper end surface of thelower cap 1. Theposition limiting block 62 extends out from an outer wall of thebottle mouth 61 and inserts into the blockingtrough 14. - Preferably, the inner wall of the
lower cap 1 is also provided with apositioning block 13; a blockingteeth 64 is provided at thebottle mouth 61 corresponding to thepositioning block 13; thepositioning block 13 is disposed between the threadedportion 17 and the lower end surface of thelower cap 1. - According to the present invention, a first positioning effect is achieved by the cooperation between the
positioning block 13 and the blockingteeth 64, and a second positioning effect is achieved by cooperation between the blockingtrough 14 and theposition limiting block 62. Due to these double positioning effects, the bottle cap of the present invention can be positioned stably, thereby achieving anti-rotation effect and at the same time ensuring between anti-theft effect. - An
annular platform 15 is provided horizontally extending around the inner wall of thelower cap 1. A secondannular flange 16 extends downwardly from theannular platform 15. The secondannular flange 16, theannular platform 15 and the inner wall of thelower cap 1 form an annular housing slot. A sealinggasket 18 matching with a mouth part of thecontainer 6 is provided inside the annular housing slot.
