Background technology
Originally the various types of closing devices shown in are well-known.
For example, patent documentation EP0826606, EP0839735 and EP0975526 have described a kind of closing device of described type originally.First feature of this closing device is, the elastic element of being made by elastomeric material extends across lid and main body, thereby covers fixed mechanism, and therefore, to go up when it is opened touch comfortable when the user acts on them for described fixed mechanism.Yet these fixed mechanisms do not form suitable button, and have following defective: requirement must be according to the elastomeric material of the shape molding additional quantity of more complicated, and this manufacturing cost to closing device has negative effect.
Second feature by described patent documentation EP0826606, EP0839735 and the disclosed closing device of EP0975526 is, elastic element have when Gai Zaiqi open and articulated position between forward extensible section of opposite side to from a side of articulated joint when pivoting.Therefore, described extensible section extends to maximum when covering at midway location, and thus, lid has two dead positions: open position and articulated position.When covering when articulated position and user want to open it, he must open fixed mechanism and promote the power that lid overcomes elastic element, surmounts midway location.This operation mode has following defective: the operation that it makes the user open lid becomes complicated, and utilizes a simple press operation can automatically and fully lid not opened.
The 3rd feature of disclosed closing device is in described patent documentation EP0826606, EP0839735 and EP0975526, except that forming extensible section concordant with articulated joint so that produce the resilience function of covering, elastomeric material also extends across the part lid, to guarantee the sealing of supply hole.Particularly elastomeric material extends across to be located at and covers and be inserted in by compulsion the outer wall of supplying with the pin in the oral area, and thus, elastomeric material is compressed in the outer wall of pin and supplies with between the inwall of oral area.This solution has following defective: pin is firmly wedged in to be supplied with in the oral area, and therefore needs sizable power for opening lid.
Patent documentation EP0976663 discloses a kind of closing device of the type of originally considering, but this closing device is different with disclosed closing device among described patent documentation EP0826606, EP0839735 and the EP0975526, because unique dead position of lid is an open position, this open position is corresponding with extensible section minimum extension of elastic element.This operation mode relies on elastic element to reach, described elastic element have form arrange between two ribs of articulated joint and join on the described rib extensible section to, therefore, described extensible section can not be freely forwards opposite side to from a side of articulated joint.With regard to opening system, in this case, closing device comprises the elastic button of being made by elastomeric material.The user pushes described elastic button, with the unlatching fixed mechanism, and therefore owing to being applied to the described screen resilience that covers lid is automatically opened.Owing to supply with the sealing of oral area, in this case, be covered with the pin that is inserted in the described supply oral area, but opposite with above-mentioned closing device, elastomeric material does not extend across pin, but forms the top of supplying with oral area on main body.In order to open lid, need sizable power to be inserted in the pin of supplying with in the oral area to extract.Therefore, lid is just automatically opened in case feasible fixed mechanism has been unlocked, and extensible section of elastic element must apply very strong screen resilience.In addition, described extensible section has limited elasticity, because it is linked on the rib that forms articulated joint.Therefore, lid to open motion quite unexpected, this is not very comfortable to the user.And the pushbutton unit of being made by elastomeric material has negative effect to the manufacturing cost of closing device.
