The explanation of preferred embodiment
The present invention is the improvement to the container disclosed by US publication 2012-0223075, and the document is incorporated herein by reference.
Present preferred embodiment of quoting is set forth the present invention, wherein figure 1 illustrates the container 2 (shown in Figure 7) for storing and seal assignable article in chamber 7.Container in Fig. 1 is in closed configuration.
See Fig. 1 and Fig. 7, container 2 comprises body 4, and this body defines the chamber 7 for receiving assignable article, goes out as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 7.The fringing 3 that body 4 has defines opening (not shown).The flange 8 of container 2 extends from fringing 3.Flange 8 has containers side surface 9 and cover piece side surface 10.The cover piece side surface 10 of flange 8 is smooth being fixed thereon for by cover piece 12 generally.Cover piece 12 is sealed to body 4 to be provided for storing the sealed environment of assignable article.In order to easily touch this article, container 2 can be cracked along specific fracture path 16.For guaranteeing the integraty in container inner seal ring border, the wall of body 4 has uniform thickness generally.
Body 4 comprises opening contact pin 14 and content part 5, and cracked part 17 is positioned between opening contact pin 14 and content part 5.Opening contact pin 14 is configured as and is such as engaged to allow singlehanded operate and use container 2 by the thumb of user by user.The containers side surface 14 ' of opening contact pin 14 is configured as the thumb or finger of receiving customer.The fracture path 16 of cracked part 17 containing band spall point 15.This fracture path defines container 2 path cracked along it.Container comes cracked along this fracture path or breaks.In this case, ' break ' cover perhaps eurypalynous cracked and the effect of tearing, decrepitation, cataclasis etc. can be referred to.
Content part 5 has shape and the structure of the tubular substantially gone out as shown in figs 1 to 6, but is also imaginabale as other configurations that are microscler, avette, square or rectangular configuration.
The formation of dispense aperture is by applying power in opening contact pin 14, it is promoted to make spall point 15 initial disintegration on the direction of cover piece.This set forth in prior art US publication 2012-0223075.Power required by cracked beginning is greater than make to tear to expand required power along fracture path 16.As a result, container 2 can bear higher stress and maintain sealing state and simultaneously once container 2 cracked just permission easily open.Once cracked beginning, the cracked of this container causing dispense aperture to form chute 22 just occurs rapidly owing to making the lower power required by the Fracture propagation of fracture path.The power be applied to when container is in its closed configuration in opening contact pin 14 is almost passed immediately and makes fracture path 16 cracked after spall point 15 is cracked.This part ground is owing to carrying out reason firmly with thumb or finger.When power being applied on static object and it moves suddenly on power thrusts, the finger of user just provides power by continuing, this is because the person's development time makes the power in opening contact pin remove to postpone.
Body 4 narrows at fracture path 16 place, thus makes the some place flange 8 that contacts with fringing 3 in fracture path 16 larger.This also contributes to that power is concentrated on and makes the fracture path 16 of container cracked.
Fig. 1 to Figure 12 shows in the position of process split shed contact pin 14 relative to content part 5 of opening container.Fig. 1-Fig. 6 is the transparent view of container, and Fig. 7-Figure 12 corresponding local vertical cross section that is container.
Fig. 1 and Fig. 7 shows container and is in complete closed configuration; Container is complete at spall point 15 place.Container shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 8 opening contact pin 14 makes container 2 cracked and force opening contact pin 14 away from vessel 4 thus after forming dispense aperture 20 at spall point 15 place enough power being applied to.Fig. 3-Fig. 5 and Fig. 9-Figure 11 shows the container 2 breaking and expand along fracture path 16 with the multiple different phases opening container 2.Fig. 5 and Figure 11 shows the container 2 torn completely along fracture path 16.Opening contact pin 14 connects content part 5 by lid 12, and at this some place, it forms hinge 19 (being clear that in this cross sectional view at Figure 11).When container is opened, flange can be or can not be still connect.
Figure 12 shows the container 2 that opening contact pin 14 is in a fully open position.On this position of opening completely, define dispense aperture 20 and in container chamber 7, the content being preferably liquid is distributed.
Dispense aperture 20 is relatively little.Gather so little opening due to the vacuum in container when through being everlasting liquid being poured out little opening and cause problem.Why this is that air can not enter to replace the liquid poured out because pour out from container along with by liquid.Such as, when from little hole dispense liquid, if do not allow air to enter chamber, vacuum will be formed in the chamber.If do not allowed, air enters chamber, vacuum is not eased, and just often causes the avris of container to be clamp-oned (if they are firm not).Alternatively or in addition, can form lune and block in dispense aperture, therefore liquid is with interrupted wavy flow pattern or distributes in the mode of " bubble ", " bubble " more simply.If be dumped out along with liquid and have a small amount of air to enter container and thereafter followed by the flowing of liquid, liquid also can distribute in an uneven manner.
It is enter container by having second hole in the lid to allow air to be poured out along with liquid thus guarantee to form vacuum that the container of some picture packing coffee cup overcomes this problem.For many reasons, it is not reality or desired for producing ventilation hole in the moment of opening container of the present invention.Such reason is that liquid may when liquid pouring is gone out container by customer from ventilation hole out, and it may be difficult that another reason penetrates container cover to produce ventilation hole.
Other containers overcome above problem by having the opening being enough to make air also can enter container chamber along with liquid is poured out container.This is unsatisfactory, because opening may be too large to such an extent as to make liquid spill opening, and this is not expected.In addition, the fluid level in container needs to be significantly less than that it is required to guarantee that liquid can not spill container in other cases.Because the shape of container does not also always likely have such big uncork.
It is shape by fracture path 16 and dispense aperture thus 20 and configuration that container of the present invention overcomes these problems, and this dispense aperture is cracked and formed when breaking along fracture path 16 at container.Fig. 6, Figure 12 and Figure 14 depict shape and the configuration of the container allocation opening 20 when container is opened completely.Fig. 6 is the transparent view of container; And Figure 12 is fragmentary sectional view, show the dispense aperture 20 being in the container opening configuration completely.Figure 14 and Figure 15 shows the view that the container that is in a fully open position is watched at dispense aperture 20 place.See Fig. 6 and Figure 12, fracture path 16 is not straight but not in same plane.It is the path of dihedral generally that fracture path 16 can be considered, as the shape of dog-leg.Fracture path 16 to be formed in cracked part 17 and to be formed between the container flange 8 of spall point 15 and spall point 15 either side.Fracture path 16 has the main portion 23 between the multiple end sections 24 being substantially perpendicular to container flange 8 and the part 24 extending in spall point 15 and perpendicular.When container is opened, container is cracked at spall point 15 place in practice.Fracture path 16 starts from spall point 15 place and extends until before its lucky arrival flange 8 along angled line 23 towards the either side of container 2.At this point place, fracture path 16 changes direction and extends with the line 24 being substantially perpendicular to container flange 8.These end sections 24 are between the 10%-25% of fracture path length generally, but optimum is 15% of fracture path length.
As Fig. 6 and illustrated in fig. 12, dispense aperture 20 is formed when container 2 breaks completely along fracture path 16 and opens.In the configuration opened completely, dispense aperture 20 forms chute 22, and this chute is limited by the shape of fracture path 16.That is, dispense aperture 20 and chute thus 22 have the substantially leg-of-mutton main portion 23 as Figure 14 and Figure 15 " front " illustrates.When watching from avris, as in fig. 12, main portion 23 is in the first plane, and two end sections 24 (having on arbitrary end of triangle main portion 23) are in the second plane different from the first plane.Second plane orthogonal in container flange 8, as shown in fig. 13.These end sections 24 and leg-of-mutton main portion 23 are not formed along same plane.This leg-of-mutton main portion 23 that dispense aperture 20 forms chute 22 is angled when container is in the position of opening completely and stretches out from content part.Leg-of-mutton main portion 23, be configured as angulation α between the first plane and the second plane together with these end sections 24 being substantially perpendicular to flange 8.Preferred angle alpha in the scope of 110-150 degree, and is more preferably 130 degree, as shown in fig. 13.
The main portion 23 of fracture path defines the upper limb of chute.Upper limb a distance below fringing 3 of chute 22 is stretched out from the body of container.Chute 22 is three-dimensionally formed.The configuration of chute and fracture path prevents broken edge sharp-pointed in use to cut skin into drinking person or nose.
See Figure 14 and Figure 15, when front viewing container, look towards dispense aperture time, fracture path 16 forms V-arrangement roughly, with substantially straight end section 24, but also may have other configurations, such as, U-shaped or there is arc and the V-arrangement of the cavetto of the avris of non-straight.Fracture path 16 is preferably V-arrangement at spall point 15 place, but it also can have other configurations, such as, the V-arrangement of U-shaped, cavetto, the V-arrangement with the summit of cavetto, or this V-arrangement may further include a mouthful mouth.
This configuration of fracture path 16 is specifically favourable, because it overcomes or at least alleviates the problem of prior art.When opening contact pin 14 is opened (Fig. 6 and Figure 12) completely and has been fully formed dispense aperture 20, the cracked part 17 of container 2 forms chute 22 (as Fig. 6 and illustrated in fig. 12) along fracture path 16, thus allow smooth and easy for the liquid in the chamber 7 of body 4 and pour out container 2 equably and there is no interrupted wavy flow pattern, or do not flow with more simply, there is no " bubble ", " bubble ".Although why this be because dispense aperture 20 is little (for containers), normal from the process of container pouring liquid, allow for air enter container chamber 7 along with liquid being poured out container.Air can enter dispense aperture 20 at portion's section 26 place, because when liquid is poured out container, liquid is not full of whole dispense aperture 20, especially this section 26.This is this dispense aperture configuration owing to being formed by these end sections 24 being in Different Plane with the leg-of-mutton part 23 forming chute 22.Therefore the chamber allowing air to enter container without the need to ventilation hole or other mechanisms is to make the dispense aperture of liquid flow container smoothly.
In Figure 16-Figure 22, another embodiment of the present invention is shown.Figure 16 shows for by assignable object storing be sealed in alternate container 202 in chamber 207.The container of Figure 16 is in the closed configuration applied before container cover.
Figure 17 and Figure 18 illustrates that container 202 is in closed configuration.The container 202 of this embodiment comprises body 204, and this body has fringing 203, and flange 208 extends from this fringing.Flange 208 has cover piece side surface 210 and is fixed to the upper for by cover piece 212.Body 204 comprises opening contact pin 214 and content part 205, and cracked part 217 is positioned between opening contact pin 214 and content part 205.The fracture path 216 of cracked part 217 containing band spall point 215.This fracture path 216 defines container 202 path cracked along it.Container is cracked or break along fracture path, thus forms dispense aperture 220 (shown in Figure 20 and Figure 22).
In this embodiment, content part 205 have tubular substantially shape and comprise multiple large bending rib 251 and from rib to container base 253 the structure of ramp portion 252.Also other configurations can be imagined, as microscler, avette, square or rectangular configuration.
See Figure 16 and Figure 19-Figure 22, fracture path 216 is once the cracked edge just forming the chute 222 of dispense aperture 220.Figure 19 and Figure 20 shows and breaks along the container 202 that fracture path 216 extends.As in the lateral plan of Figure 19 show, visual angle fracture path 216 forms the line of arc substantially or bending, extend to flange 208 from spall point 215 terminal from the side.Fracture path is not be in same plane.
Figure 21 and Figure 22 shows container 202 and is in the configuration opened completely.Fracture path 216 is in the middle formation of cracked part 217 (Figure 17) and is formed between the container flange 208 of spall point 215 and spall point 215 either side.Fracture path 216 has the main portion 223 between the multiple end sections 224 being substantially perpendicular to container flange 208 and the part 224 extending in spall point 215 and perpendicular.In this embodiment, fracture path 216 starts from spall point 215 and extends until before it just arrives fringing 203 or flange 208 along curve 223 towards the either side of container 202.
Fracture path 216 defines the chute 222 of dispense aperture 220.Chute 222 has main portion 223 and multiple end section 224.These end sections all have terminal separately.Main portion 223 to start from first plane at spall point 215 place and along bending or (fracture path 216) is moved in sharp keen path gradually until it arrives these end sections 224, and then these end sections extend to fringing 203 and are substantially perpendicular to container flange 208.Therefore, fracture path 216 and chute thus 222 start from the spall point 215 in the first plane and move by many planes (with continuous curve) gradually, thus the terminal of these end sections 224 is in the plane different from the first plane.More particularly, thisly crackedly start from spall point 215 and then outwards to expand along fracture path 216, thus making initially to be in progress direction and define the first plane.This cracked each destination county at these end sections 224 terminates, thus makes finally to be in progress direction and define second plane different from the first plane.It is three-dimensional for importantly knowing this chute.That is, fracture path has longitudinal with component that is transverse direction.
In this embodiment, when liquid being poured out container, air enters dispense aperture 220 at portion's section 226 place, this is because liquid is not full of whole dispense aperture 220, and especially portion's section 226.This is this dispense aperture configuration owing to being formed by these end sections 224 being in Different Plane with the main portion 223 forming chute 222.
Visual angle from the side, fracture path from spall point to the terminal of fringing or distal point be bending; Cracked path is substantially perpendicular to flange at distal point place.Fracture path is transitioned into the second plane gradually from the first plane.When watching in the chute front of container (that is, looking towards dispense aperture), fracture path and chute are thus formed with multiple arc of substantially straight end section or the V-arrangement of cavetto.But, also can imagine other configurations, such as, U-shaped or roughly V-arrangement.Fracture path is preferably V-arrangement at spall point place, but it also can have other configurations, such as, the V-arrangement of U-shaped, cavetto, the V-arrangement with the summit of cavetto, or this V-arrangement may further include a mouthful mouth.
Opening contact pin 214 connects content part 205 by lid 212, and at this some place, it forms hinge 219 (Figure 19).In another embodiment (not shown), start from these ends of fracture path 216 (namely, destination county at these end sections 224) flange 208 also can be cracked when opening contact pin 214 is forced to move on the direction of container cover piece 212, thus therefore formed hinge 219.The mode that flange breaks is make it be substantially along the line between the end and the outward flange of flange of fracture path.Opening contact pin is just connected in content part 205 by container cover piece 212.So opening contact pin 214 just can be used as portable handle and open container cover 212.
The structure of this fracture path of the present invention and chute is specifically favourable, because it allows content, particularly liquid contents to distribute swimmingly, and ensure that container can splendid attire liquid as much as possible.This structure makes flow of liquid more even, because without the need to just defining as folding out the structure changing container chute (such as find on milk box) chute stretched out from container, and air can enter container chamber and without the need to the ventilation hole that separates or other mechanisms.
Comparatively speaking, the fracture path of the container disclosed by U.S. Patent Publication 2012-0223075 is formed along plane, that is, container is cracked along same plane.Which results in the problem of above elaboration, because by the chute that stretches out and air just can not be formed along same plane is cracked to enter container to replace by dispense aperture the liquid distributed also more difficult.
The further advantage of this structure of container is cracked as losing proof feature by fracture path.If fracture path is cracked just prove that container has been lost and consequently the content of container may degenerate or pollute.
Can be changed these arrangements explained above and do not depart from herein set forth or as appended claims the spirit or scope of the present invention of claiming.Such as, vessel may be microscler or other shapes or fracture path can have the configuration of different, sharper keen or more mild angle.
