Detailed description of the invention

See Fig. 1, the container cover as described in the present invention with pour spout and spoon is generally specified by reference number 10.This lid 10 is installed to and is generally in the container matrix 12 of spill, and thus this container 12 forms airtight storage area together with lid 10.Although lid 10 can be permanently attached on container 12, preferably, lid 10 is selectively dismantled and assembled and replaceable to be easy to again filling repeated usage container matrix 12.

Lid 10 comprises outer peripheral edges 14, its around and support roof 16, this roof comprises the pouring aperture 18 extending through roof.Outer peripheral edges 14 and roof 16 can be independent components, but preferably form integrated unit with such as injection molding.Container cover 10 also comprises the slip lid 20 be fixed on removably on roof, its can between detent position and open position manual slip.

Outer peripheral edges 14 are fixed in container matrix 12.When container cover 10 is wanted dismantled and assembled and replaceable, the multiple method that these outer peripheral edges can be well known in the art is shaped.The most typically, as the method known in the industry, it can be the reversion U-lag receiving container matrix upper limb.

Slip lid 20 comprises planar body 22, and it is elongated shape along sense of motion (referred to herein as longitudinal direction, horizontal then perpendicular) between open position and detent position.The size setting of main body 22 is to be engaged in outer peripheral edges 14.This main body 22 can be incorporated in (as shown in the figure) in outer peripheral edges 14 at horizontal direction relative closure.But, this main body 22 must be shorter than the fore-and-aft distance of outer peripheral edges 14, thus when it moves between detent position and open position, and this main body 22 can move in the scope of outer peripheral edges 14 relative to outer peripheral edges 14.During above-mentioned movement, this main body 22 also (or at least in its part) can be slided on roof 16.This main body 22 has enough size and dimensions to cover pouring aperture 18 completely.

This pouring aperture 18 is elongated shape, and it comprises and being spaced and extend longitudinally two parallel sides 26, and the termination, two intervals 28 extended between this side 26.This termination can be relatively straight shape (forms a relative slot 18, but preferred curved as shown in the figure).This slip lid 20 also comprises locking wall 24, and its autonomous agent 22 extends and includes hole 18 in.This locking wall preferably has closed periphery, the spaced parallel first surface 30 of tool closely to include in side 26, and have between this parallel surfaces extend and through setting second surface 32 in case with termination 28 tight fit.The distance that this second surface 32 is spaced is less than the distance between termination 28.Like this, slip lid 20 can from one of them second surface 32 be adjacent termination 28 near time position (detent position in Fig. 1), to another second surface 32 be adjacent termination 28 near time position (open position in Fig. 6) vertically move.This movement can be carried out by hand and can be reciprocal back and forth, and the side 26 that first surface 30 adjoins along it slides.Main body 22 is dimensioned and is placed as, and makes it extend to exceed the distance of second surface 32 1 abundance closest to open position, so that a part at least coverage hole 18, wherein when slip lid is in detent position, this part in hole is not in locking wall 24.

Can see, in its closed position, the main body 22 of slip lid 20 can cover and blind hole 18 completely.In open position, the extending to the part exceeding locking wall 24 and can extend on roof 16 of this main body.By this way, slip lid 20 can be used to optionally seal or open hole 18.When it is in open position, user can by whole container lean to pour out the article of the inside from hole 18.

Remaining on the position of blind hole 18 effectively in order to ensure slip lid 20, is at least that the first surface 30 (and preferred all surface) of locking wall 24 comprises groove 34.This groove 34 can be meshed in the projection 36 of inclining in hole 18 with supporting.The thickness that roof 16 has self can form this projection 36, or is formed in the outer peripheral edges that also can increase in hole 18 or by the outer peripheral edges of this increase.Roof 16 and/or slip lid 20 should have enough elasticity to allow manual engagement and to take off slip lid 20, and this is a pith of the present invention.

As shown in Figure 2, when slip lid 20 is taken off by hand from roof 16, available its as spoon.For reaching this object, locking wall 24 can be the sheet band (not shown) extended from main body 22, and thus slip lid 20 can be reversed, and the depression in locking wall 24 and main body 22 can form the bowl-shape part 37 of spoon.Alternately, as shown in the figure, main body 22 can be pressed into the edge of locking wall 24, thus forms the bowl-shape part 37 of above-mentioned spoon.It is contemplated that from Fig. 2, user can take off slip lid 20 by hand, catches part main body 22 extending beyond locking wall 24 as handle, by the bowl-shape segment insertion hole 18 of slip lid 20 to dip the article in container matrix.

Although not necessarily, the edge of preferably apertures 18 is raised relative to the remainder of roof 16, and this contributes to ensureing that main body 22 and hole 18 are agreed with completely, can seal this hole more completely in the optional position except opening.

In order to solve the problem of slip lid 20 manual slip, finger can insert by the bowl-shape part formed under the concaving in main body 22 (if spoon is formed like this) by user.But preferably, be further longitudinal stretching main body 22, and the hole (or depression wherein) formed thus through it form finger grip 38.A part for top cover 16 can be depressed under finger grip 38 to make it open and freely to move between detent position together with slip lid 20.Alternately, real closed trenches 40 can be formed on roof 16.

In most preferred mode, finger grip 38 can extend into groove 40, and groove 40 forms longitudinal slide rail 42 through undercutting simultaneously, and this slide rail 42 is closely brought in chute 44 in the outside of finger grip 38.Thus, finger grip 38 can be guided in the mode similar with hole 18 inner locking wall 24.Such meeting ensures that main body 22 keeps compressing and seal bore 18 rightly further.As mentioned before, preferably, connection herein has enough elasticity to allow user's manual engagement and to untie slide rail 42 and groove 44.Alternatively, or in addition, slide rail 42 can terminate before one or two longitudinal end of groove 40, thus the opening that formation is widened can free in and out to allow the finger grip 38 in groove 40.

Sliding block joint between groove 34 and protruding 36 (and slide rail 42 and groove 44) is enough tight to keep the position of slip lid 20, avoid unplanned in movement.But, more satisfactoryly, also can form the backstop 46 of one or more projection on the basal surface of main body 22, they are oriented to match with the inner circumferential in hole 18 (or periphery), and to help in open position, detent position and/or middle position fix slip lid 20.

As can be seen from above, all targets described in the present invention is very suitable for realizing and object and other advantages intrinsic in its framework.

Should be understood that, some characteristic and combination are practical, and can be had nothing to do with combining with other characteristics by using.This to be taken into account and within the scope being comprised in claim.

Because many possible detailed description of the invention can be implemented under the condition not deviating from the scope of the invention, should be understood that, all items described herein are understood in the accompanying drawings by way of illustration, but the present invention is not limited to this.
