Definitions
- the invention relates to a stopper device which is equipped with a stopper and makes it possible to keep said stopper attached to the neck of a container, which avoids losing the stopper in nature.
- the document WO20193821 discloses such a stopper device making it possible to keep the stopper attached to the neck of a container.
- the closure device comprises a lower ring which is intended to be mounted fixed axially on the neck of the container and movable in rotation relative to the latter.
- the lower ring comprises a first sector which comprises hooking elements which protrude radially towards the inside of the lower ring and are intended to be arranged below a collar for hooking the neck so as to retain the ring below the neck of the container.
- the lower ring also comprises a second sector which is hinged to the first sector and can thus pivot relative to the first sector between a lowered position in which the second sector is arranged below the attachment flange and a raised position in which the second sector is arranged above the attachment collar.
- the stopper device also comprises a stopper having an upper wall and a peripheral skirt having a thread intended to cooperate with a thread of the neck.
- the cap is articulated on the second sector of the lower ring by means of two slats which connect the peripheral skirt and the second sector.
- the second sector of the lower ring pivots relative to the first sector to the raised position so as to allow axial movement, upwards of the cap, from a closed position to a closed position. released.
- the two slats allow the stopper to switch between said released position and an open tilted position.
- the stopper device also comprises a blocking device making it possible to block the stopper in the open tilted position.
- the plugging device comprises a tab disposed between the two elastic blades and extending upwards from the lower ring and a cleat projecting radially outwards from the outer peripheral skirt, the cleat being arranged to bear against the tab when rotating the cap. Due to the support of the cleat against the tongue, the elastic strips are subjected to a tensile force which increases during a first part of the movement of the stopper from the released position towards the open tilted position up to an intermediate unstable position. Then, the tensile force to which the elastic strips are subjected decreases from said intermediate unstable position. This allows the stopper to be locked in the tilted open position.
- the cleat in order to be able to bear against the tab when the stopper is in the open tilted position, the cleat has a relatively large radial dimension.
- a cleat having too large a radial dimension is likely to harm the reliability and the efficiency of bottling operations during which the closure devices are in particular transported on conveyors before being placed on the necks of the containers.
- a cleat that is too prominent is also likely to interfere with the user when handling the cork.
- a cleat made of a large quantity of plastic material is likely to cause injection problems during the manufacture of the cap.
- An idea at the base of the invention is to propose a stopper device equipped with a stopper attached to the neck of the container capable of being screwed onto the neck of the container and which makes it possible to reliably block the stopper in a tilted open position. in which it does not interfere with the pouring out of the contents of the container while limiting the size of the elements projecting outwardly from the stopper.
- Another idea at the basis of the invention is to obtain a large opening angle of the cap in the open tilted position so as not to interfere with the pouring out of the contents of the container.
- the invention provides a closure device intended to be fixed on a neck of a container comprising a dispensing orifice, a helical thread and a fastening flange, the closure device comprising:
- said lower ring intended to be mounted fixed axially on the neck and movable in rotation about an axis X
- said lower ring comprising a first sector which comprises attachment zones each comprising at least one attachment element which projects radially towards the inside of the lower ring and is intended to be arranged below the attachment flange so as to retain the lower ring axially on the neck of the container and a second sector, the first sector and the second sector of the lower ring being articulated to one another so that the second sector pivots with respect to the first sector between a lowered position in which the second sector is intended to be arranged below the attachment flange and a raised position in which the second sector is intended to be arranged at least partly above the attachment collar,
- a cap comprising an upper wall and an outer peripheral skirt, the outer peripheral skirt having a helical thread intended to cooperate with the helical thread of the neck so as to allow the movement of the cap between a closed position and a released position in which the the helical thread of the cap no longer meshes with the helical thread of the neck;
- a hinge device comprising two slats connecting the outer peripheral skirt and the second sector and configured to allow the cap to pivot between the released position and an open tilted position in which the cap is disengaged from the neck dispensing orifice; the second sector of the lower ring being able to be positioned in the lowered position when the cap is in the open tilted position; the plugging device further comprising a blocking device configured to block the plug when it is in the open tilted position, said blocking device comprising: • a cleat which projects radially outwards from the outer peripheral skirt, and is arranged circumferentially between the two strips of the hinge device; and ⁇ a projecting portion which projects axially from a central portion of the second sector of the lower ring, between the two strips of the hinge device;
- the cleat and the protruding portion being configured such that, when the plug is in the open tilted position and the second sector of the lower ring is in the lowered position, the cleat bears against the protruding portion, and in which the outer peripheral skirt comprises a heel projecting axially towards the projecting portion between the two slats, the projecting portion having a radial thickness e1 greater than a radial thickness e2 of the first sector of the lower ring outside the attachment zones and having recesses opening opposite the heel.
- the local increase in the thickness of the lower ring at least at the level of the projecting portion makes it possible to reduce the radial dimension of the cleat accordingly.
- This is particularly advantageous insofar as a stopper having too large a radial dimension is likely to harm the reliability and efficiency of bottling operations, is likely to bother the user when handling the cork and is also likely cause injection problems.
- This increase in thickness also makes it possible to increase the stiffness of the protruding portion and to further ensure the reliability and robustness of the locking device.
- such a closure device may have one or more of the following characteristics.
- the radial thickness e1 is between 0.4 and 2 mm, preferably between 1 and 2 mm.

- the cleat has a bevelled upper surface oriented such that the cleat has a height which decreases from the outer peripheral skirt towards one end of the cleat, the cleat being configured such that, in the open tilted position, the upper surface of the cleat bears against the projecting portion. This increases the opening angle of the cap.
- the cleat has an end which has a height of less than 1 mm, preferably less than 0.8 mm, for example of the order of 0.6 mm.
- the first sector comprises a front zone which is diametrically opposed to the second sector and two attachment zones in which the attachment elements are positioned and which are respectively located on either side of the front zone between said front zone and the second sector.
- the front zone of the first sector has no attachment elements.
- the attachment elements are exclusively arranged in the two attachment zones.
- the projecting portion projects beyond a lower limit of the outer peripheral skirt.
- the slats and the locking device are configured such that, during the pivoting movement of the cap between the released position and the open tilted position, the slats are subjected to a tensile force which increases up to to an intermediate unstable position then which decreases from said intermediate unstable position towards the open tilted position.
- the closure device is molded in one piece.
- the lower ring is connected to the outer peripheral skirt by frangible bridges.
- the opening angle of the cap is greater than 120°, preferably greater than 180° , advantageously greater than 190° and for example of the order of 200°.
- the outer peripheral skirt comprises a notched portion and the elastic blades join said outer peripheral skirt in said notched portion.
- the invention also provides an assembly comprising an aforementioned closure device and a container equipped with a neck, the neck comprising an orifice, a helical thread and a fastening flange, the fastening elements of the lower ring being arranged below the attachment flange so as to retain the lower ring axially on the neck of the container.
- such an assembly may have one or more of the following characteristics.
- the cleat and the protruding portion are configured such that, when the cap is in the open tilted position and the second sector of the lower ring is in the lowered position, the protruding portion is clamped between the cleat and the attachment collar. Thanks to such an arrangement, the blocking device guarantees robust blocking, with a large angle, of the plug in its open tilted position.
- the cleat and the protruding portion are configured such that, when the cap is in the tilted open position and the second section of the lower ring is in the lowered position, the cleat and the protruding portion are in contact against each other in a zone located in the plane of the attachment collar.

- the lower ring 9 is held axially on the neck 2 of the container by means of the attachment flange 5.
- the attachment flange 5 has a frustoconical outer surface tapering upwards, it that is to say in the direction of the orifice 3 of the container.
- the attachment collar 5 delimits, downwards, that is to say in a direction opposite to the orifice 3, a shoulder.
- the first sector 16 of the lower ring 9 comprises attachment elements 18 which are intended to cooperate with the attachment collar 5 provided on the container in order to axially retain the lower ring 9 to the neck 2 of the container.
- the hooking elements 18 are protuberances which protrude radially inwards from the first sector 16 of the lower ring 9.
- the hooking elements 18 have a radial dimension which increases, from bottom to top. , that is to say in the direction of the upper edge of the lower ring 9.
- the first sector 16 of the lower ring 9 comprises a front zone 19 which is diametrically opposed to the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9 and two attachment zones 20, 21 represented in FIGS. on the other side of the front zone 19 and are each arranged between the front zone 19 and the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9.
- the attachment elements 18 are exclusively arranged in the two attachment zones 20, 21.
- the tensile forces to be exerted on the lower ring 9 to allow the second sector 17 to pass on either side of the attachment collar 5 are lower.
- the second sector 17 extends over an angular range comprised between 90 and 150°
- the front zone 19 of the first sector 16 extends over an angular range comprised between 60 and 150 while each of the two zones of attachment 20, 21 extends over an angular range between 30 and 90°.
- the hinge device 10 comprises two slats 11, 12, particularly visible in Figures 1 and 4, which connect the cap 1 and more particularly the outer peripheral skirt 14 of the cap 1 to the lower ring 9, and more particularly to the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9.
- the slats 11, 12 join the outer peripheral skirt 14 in a notched portion. Similarly, the slats 11, 12 join the second sector 17 of the lower ring 2 in a notched portion. In other words, the slats 11, 12 extend substantially above the lower limit of the outer peripheral skirt 9 and extend substantially below the upper limit of the lower ring 3.
- the blocking device comprises a tab 23 which projects radially outwards from the outer peripheral skirt 14 of the stopper 1.
- the tab 23 extends circumferentially between the two blades 11, 12.
- the blocking device also comprises a portion in projection 24 which projects axially upwards, that is to say towards the outer peripheral skirt 14 of the stopper 1, from a central portion 25 of the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9.
- the projecting portion 24 also projects between the two slats 11, 12.
- cap 1 comprises a heel 22, particularly visible in FIG. 1, which is provided in the outer peripheral skirt 14 of cap 1.
- Heel 22 projects axially downwards, that is to say in the direction of the lower ring 9, from the outer peripheral skirt 14 of the stopper 1.
- the heel 22 protrudes between the two slats 11, 12.
- the heel 22 thus makes it possible to limit the dimensions of the spaces and interstices formed between the slats 11, 12 and likely to accommodate external bodies.
- the height of the gap provided axially between the heel 22 and the projecting portion 24 is less than 0.6 mm and preferably between 0.3 and 0.6 mm.
- the cleat 23 and the projecting portion 24 are arranged such that, when the cap 1 is in the open tilted position, the cleat 23 comes to bear against the projecting portion 24.
- the slats 11, 12 as well as the tab 23 and the projecting portion 24 are configured such that, during a first part of the movement of the stopper 4 from the released position to the open tilted position, the two elastic strips 11, 12 are, in due to the support of the cleat 23 against the projecting portion 24, subjected to a tensile force which increases up to an intermediate unstable position then which decreases from said intermediate unstable position towards the open tilted position. This makes it possible to block the cap 1 in the open tilted position.
- the thickness of the lower ring 9 is increased locally at least at the level of the projecting portion 24.
- the projecting portion 24 has a radial thickness e1 which is greater than a radial thickness e2 of the first sector 16 of the lower ring 9 outside the attachment zones 20, 21. This increase in the thickness of the lower ring 9 makes it possible to reduce the radial dimension of the cleat 23 by the same amount.
- the internal face and the external face 27 of the projecting portion 24 extend parallel to the axis X and are aligned in the axial direction with the internal face and the external face 26 of the central portion 25 of the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9. This ensures continuity of the inner and outer faces of the projecting portion 24 with that of the lower ring 9, without any angular surface.
- the radial thickness e1 of the protruding portion is between 0.4 and 2 mm and preferably between 1 and 2 mm.
- the projecting portion 24 has recesses 29.
- the recesses 29 open out at the free end of the projecting portion 24 as well as on the outer face 27 of the protruding portion 24.
- Such recesses 29 are advantageous in that they facilitate the obtaining by a molding process of a plugging device having such a local increase in thickness of the lower ring 9 at the level of the portion projecting 24.
- the mold is equipped with a steel blade which is intended to form the gap between the heel 22 and the projecting portion 24 in order to separate them.
- the increase in the radial thickness e1 of the protruding portion 24 leads to an increase in the stresses exerted on the steel strip during molding, which weakens it.
- the latter comprises reinforcing ribs, the shape of which corresponds to that of the recesses 29 formed in the projecting portion 24.
- the cleat 23 has an upper surface 30 bevelled. In other words, the height of the cleat 23 decreases from the outer peripheral skirt 14 towards the end 28 of the cleat 23. In addition, the end
- the 28 of cleat 23 has a height of less than 1 mm, preferably less than 0.8 mm, for example of the order of 0.6 mm.
- the stopper 1 tilts around the point of contact between the end 28 of the tab 23 and the projecting portion 24 until the surface upper 30 bears against the projecting portion 24.
- the bevelled shape of the upper surface 30 of the cleat 23 thus makes it possible to increase the opening angle of the plug 1 in the open tilted position.
- the opening angle which corresponds to the salient angular sector which is formed at the intersection between a plane parallel to the upper wall 13 of the stopper 1 and a horizontal plane is greater than 180°, advantageously greater than 190° and by example of the order of 200°.
- the projecting portion 24 is sandwiched between the tab 23 and the attachment collar 5.
- the catch 23 and the protruding portion 24 are in contact against each other in a zone located in the plane of the attachment collar 5 and the protruding portion 24 is also in contact against the collar of hooking 5. This makes it possible to guarantee a robust blocking of the cap in the tilted open position.
- stopper 1 The kinematics of stopper 1 is as follows. During the first unscrewing, the cap 1 leaves the closed position and moves away from the lower ring 9 to the released position, illustrated in figure 3. The frangible bridges break during this movement. In addition, during this movement of unscrewing the cap 1, the lower ring 9 is rotated around the axis X and the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9 pivots towards the raised position as the cap 1 moves away from the attachment collar 5.
- the cap 1 can then be pivoted rearward towards the open tilted position in which the outer peripheral skirt 14 extends upwards from the upper wall 13.
- the cleat 23 bears against the projecting portion 24 and thus causes the pivoting of the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9 from the raised position to the lowered position.
- the cap 1 remains in its open tilted position since, due to the aforementioned arrangement, the cap 1 cannot be pivoted towards the released position in which the cap 1 is facing the dispensing orifice 3 as long as the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9 remains in the lowered position.
- cap 1 To close cap 1 , the user tilts cap 1 forwards to the released position. During this tilting, the contact between the cleat 23 and the projecting portion 24 disappears, which allows the movement of the second sector 17 of the lower ring 9 towards the raised position.
- the entire closure device is molded in a single piece of synthetic material, such as polyethylene and advantageously high density polyethylene.
- the closure device is molded in the configuration of Figure 1, that is to say in a closed position, a position in which it can be directly mounted on the neck 2 of the container.
