Describe in detail
The present invention realizes above-mentioned purpose by above-mentioned cap is provided.Wherein air locking is made up of barrier film 2, barrier film 2 facing to and be the axle of so-called valve protection cap 3 perpendicular to cup-shaped member, and cover the open side of described cup-shaped member 3 fully, described barrier film 2 is made by extensible plastic sheeting.
Extensile barrier film 2 can directly be fixed on the edge of the open side of valve protection cap 3, or is contained in the retracted position with respect to described edge of opening in the valve protection cap 3, promptly than the midway location between rear side and the closed side.
Barrier film can some different modes be fixed, promptly or by gluing or arrange by other chemistry and/or physical adherence.
According to first embodiment, as shown in Figure 1, barrier film directly is connected with the edge that around cup-shaped member 3 is the opening of valve protection cap.This edge can advantageously be widened, and to form enlarged or flange, this enlarged or flange have the surface of widening so that adhere to barrier film.
Alternatively or with direct connection combine around the edge of cup-shaped member 3 openings, the variation example of Fig. 3 provides, and barrier film 2 circumferentially extendings surpass described edge, and forms the annular peripheral band at open end, so that be connected with the end of the outer cylindrical wall of cup-shaped member 3.Barrier film also can be by gluing and/or other is chemical and/or physical adherence is arranged fixing.
And, change example according to this, by the natural elastic of the barrier film 2 that stretches in advance, promptly by its contractility, the annular peripheral band close attachment cup-shaped member outside face of barrier film 2.In fact, although extensible barrier film 2 elastic bodys have plastic properties, the big molecule that promptly mutually slides, it also can be after stretching, extension its initial configuration of local recovery.Particularly, when the barrier film 2 of the above-mentioned type places the valve protection cap opening, promptly on the cup-shaped member 3 of rigidity, and stretch along its axis simultaneously, reduce with the quantity of material in the coaxial cross section of opening, because these cross sections are near described vessel port.Therefore produced plane of revolution, its bus is parabolic.In case the longitudinal stress in the plastic material is eliminated, because how much and mechanical reason, axially has a higher elasticity vector along vertical with the vertical stretching direction, thereby be parallel to generation hoop blockage effect on the concentric cross-sectional of plane of revolution, therefore, cause the annular peripheral band of barrier film to make outward flange crinkled.This contraction or a crinkled effect might obtain very high force value according to membrane thicknesses, and always actv. is guaranteed fine and close sealing effectiveness.
Simultaneously, barrier film 2 can advantageously be installed on the valve protection cap 3 by heating barrier film and rigidity valve protection cap.
In the alternate embodiment shown in Figure 2, barrier film can be arranged on the closed side and the mid-plane between the open side of cup-shaped member 3, thereby shroud outside also being provided with on the cylinder side wall of cup-shaped member 3 is provided in a side of the inboard of cup-shaped member specifically.
Once more, barrier film 2, i.e. outer shroud wherein is by adhering to, weld and/or other chemistry and/or physical method can connecting the inwall of cup-shaped member.
Embodiment according to a replacement, elasticity of plastics barrier film 2 is installed on lining 11 or the cylindric ring nut, lining 11 or cylindric ring nut at both ends side are openings, and, as shown in Figure 4, according to first embodiment, also have such internal diameter, promptly when barrier film 2 faced toward the opening of cup-shaped member 3, its annular peripheral band is heavy folded certain title degree on the outside face of the peripheral wall of cup-shaped member 3, because elasticity and/or form fit are arranged, lining or ring nut 11, are arranged on the cup-shaped member 3 along its axially extended part at the open end of cup-shaped member 3, therefore, make the outside face of wall of the outer shroud pressed glass shape element 3 of barrier film 2.
As shown in Figure 5, change in example at similar other, the natural scale of the diameter of cup-shaped member 3 and lining or ring nut makes, lining 13 is arranged on the certain axial depth on the inside face of peripheral wall of cup-shaped member 3, the annular peripheral band of its outer surface in compression barrier film 2 simultaneously, the annular peripheral band of this barrier film 2 make the inside face of cylindrical wall of the outside face of lining or ring nut and cup-shaped member 3 overlapping against.
Obviously, barrier film can also successive welding or simultaneously gluing.
Lining 11 or 13 or ring nut can have approaching face, if lining or ring nut are designed to firmly put in the cup-shaped member, then this approaching face can be made up of the circular cone or the circular arch cone of insertion end.
In both cases, crooked barrier film 2 is favourable imbed cup-shaped member and lining 11 13 or the assembly of ring nut in.
According to another different embodiment, lining 11 or ring nut are realized being connected with the radial groove cooperation of another part with the radial ridges of cup-shaped member 3 by one of this two elements, radial groove can originally be provided with, or by when engaging, forming by the distortion of the radial ridges of another part.
Another simple and cheap embodiment shown in Figure 17 and 18 provides, for employing or without ring nut 11 or lining, barrier film 2 is fixed on the rigidity cup-shaped member 3 simply, the substitute is, the element that combines with the cup-shaped member of rigidity 82 is made by elastomeric material, also have cup-shaped, and have along its sidewall suitable to thickness portion, be used to contact the inside surface of side wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, rigidity cup-shaped member 3 is darker than elasticity cup-shaped member 82 vertically.
Extensile plastic components 82 is preferably by the jet molding manufactured, and has cup-shapedly, and it has thicker and harder outer rim.
Closely the above-mentioned variation example against the lining 11 of rigidity cup-shaped member 3 or ring nut is similar with being used to guarantee barrier film 2, the free edge of extensile plastics cup-shaped member 82 has arbitrarily suitably the reinforcement flange or the annular widened section of shape, and by the same material manufacturing, its internal diameter preferably deducts the double thickness of the cylindrical portions may of element 82 corresponding to the internal diameter of valve protection cap 3 or cup-shaped member, and its external diameter is equal to or greater than the external diameter of valve protection cap 3 or rigidity cup-shaped member, and its thickness is enough to make the edge enough hard.
The foregoing description is described with reference to the rigidity cup-shaped member or the valve protection cap of cylinder or basic cylinder and circular cone or basic circular cone.
Above-mentioned different embodiment also is provided with plastics and metal valve protection cap 3 or rigidity cup-shaped member.
Can see more clearly below, some embodiment are more suitable for being used for truncated cones valve protection cap 3 or rigidity cup-shaped member, and other cylinder rigidity cup-shaped member 3.
With reference to first embodiment, when it and rigidity cup-shaped member 3 are cap that the rigid metal valve protection cap forms when combining, the present invention's proposition is used to make the method for the combination of cap and barrier film 2, and its step comprises:
1. from relative with the open side side by barrier film 2 closures promptly and fixedly secure rigidity cup-shaped member 3, preferably carry out above-mentioned action by electromagnet 37, this electromagnet 37 contacts with rigidity cup-shaped member 3 from the outside of closed side;
2. along the axis of described rigidity cup-shaped member 3 and/or cylindrical hole, 3 propellings of rigidity cup-shaped member are had in the cylindrical hole of suitable diameter, extensile plastic diaphragms 2 faces toward the opening in described hole in advance in suitable arbitrarily mode.
3. by inserting rigidity cup-shaped member 3, so that it pierces in the cylindrical hole or passes through cylindrical hole, come tensile membrane like this, therefore, the surface of barrier film is because its interior transverse stress forms the shape of the paraboloid of revolution, so that withstand the annular blade 38 of appropriate location, this annular blade 38 is positioned at apart from opening a distance, hole, and shift the back that direction on the barrier film 2 is positioned at the hole opening onto at rigidity cup-shaped member 3, annular blade 38 dangles and becomes whole with the inboard in hole, the hole internal diameter is greater than the external diameter of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, and remarkable diameter less than cylindrical hole.
Therefore, barrier film 2 is along the circumference cutting, thus the outer shroud of formation, and this outer shroud overlaps the truncated cone outer wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3 and shrinks thereon.
Therefore, the outer shroud of barrier film 2 shrinks around the cone outer wall of the truncation of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, because the inner transverse elastic stress that extensile plastic polymer longitudinal stretching produces, its diameter is less than the maximum gauge of described rigidity cup-shaped member 3.
In addition, this can obtain by combining with the rigidity cup-shaped member 3 with cylindrical shape or frustroconical.
Be used to make the theme that barrier film 2 and the method for rigidity cup-shaped member 3 bonds form relevant dependent claims, be described in detail below by preferred embodiment.
Method at assembling closing device of the present invention, or be installed in form on the rigidity cup-shaped member 3 in advance with barrier film 2, or with the form of extensile plastics cup-shaped member 82, behind extensile barrier film 2, device of the present invention is installed on the opening of container 1 with commonly used or known mode.
In threaded closing device especially for plastic bottle, the rigidity cup-shaped member that forms valve protection cap is installed to valve protection cap on the container by utilizing elastic force, thereby the axis with respect to closing device and/or vessel port produces longitudinal travel, therefore, barrier film 2 not can closing device in conjunction with preceding or during break.In the step of installing with axial force, because the effect of compression device, the natural elastic force of extensile cup-shaped member 82 and container 1 allows the matching thread of the bonded device of described two parts and anti-tamper ring to be bonded with each other.
(employing is used for the known method of non-compound valve protection cap when closing device is installed on the container 1, this non-compound valve protection cap is different with valve protection cap of the present invention), the bottle or the opening of other container arbitrarily, on barrier film 2 or extensile plastics cup-shaped member 82, apply power, thereby it is stretched as follows, be the edge that barrier film sticks to the opening of container 1, thereby play and the irrelevant sealing function of cap tightening force.Open when promptly turning on when the cap of container 1, therefore the membrane ruptures of bearing friction stress, forever is in open mode.Like this, closing device of the present invention allows easily to check whether container is distorted.In fact, make anti-tamper ring can prevent that with the known technology that oncus 35 breaks away from it from separating with cap although utilize, this oncus 35 fixedly is close to anti-tamper ring the opening of bottle 1, do not destroy the barrier film relative with vessel port, just container is finally opened, be prevented that for example the product that wherein comprises is changed in the malice attempt.
Further improvement of the present invention and variation form the theme of dependent claims.
With reference to figure 1, closing device is made up of compound valve protection cap, comprises rigid cylinder cup-shaped member 3 and extensible plastic diaphragms 2, and this extensible plastic diaphragms 2 promptly is fixed on the description edge of the open side of cup-shaped member 3 facing to the whole opening of cup-shaped member 3.
Advantageously, for bigger adhesive surface is provided, the flange forms that is arranged to radially widen around the sidewall edge of the described cup-shaped member 3 of opening.Barrier film 2 can be fixed on the rigidity cup-shaped member 3 with arbitrary form, and this form for example is that gluing, welding or other chemistry and/or physical adherence are arranged.
The variation example of Fig. 3 displayed map 1 embodiment, the peripheral flange that wherein is used to connect barrier film 2 has the circular cone profile of diffusion, and this circular cone has the slight dome shape surface so that adhere to barrier film.
It is favourable that this embodiment installs configuration for elastic force, when described barrier film is installed on the opening of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, by making described barrier film compress rigidity cup-shaped member 3, and subsequently along the circumference cutting barrier film 2 that centers on rigidity cup-shaped member 3 at certain radial distance, this method described in claim 33, because the natural elastic of barrier film 2, this configuration is possible.
Behind cutting step, owing to adopt extensile material, the outer shroud of barrier film 2 is subjected to the effect of elastic shrinkage effect, and the outer shroud of barrier film 2 causes peripheral flange to shrink against tapered flanges.If this band has enough width, the outermost radial component can arrive circular groove, and forms a kind of collar around rigidity cup-shaped member 3 by shrinking.
Yet in the embodiment of Fig. 2, barrier film is embedded in the rigidity cup-shaped member 3.This embodiment is favourable, because the barrier film that stretch to embed exposes seldom, thereby can direct contact does not pollute and is subjected to physical disturbance.
In addition, extensile barrier film has peripheral flange, yet the latter is designed to be fixed on such position, fix in position on the inboard of the heavy peripheral wall that is stacked in cylinder rigidity cup-shaped member 3 of this position peripheral flange.
As example previous among Fig. 1, barrier film can be provided with by gluing, welding or other known chemistry and/or physical adherence.
Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 show two alternate embodiments, and its septation 2 is fixed on the open side of rigidity cup-shaped member 3 and the midway location between the closed side.
In both cases, rigidity cup-shaped member 3 is arranged to combine with ring nut or lining 11,13, and ring nut or lining 11,13 are designed to for example install by shrinkage power or elastic force engage rigidity cup-shaped member 3.
In the example of Fig. 4, the internal diameter of ring nut or lining 11 is substantially equal to or is slightly larger than the external diameter of cup-shaped member 3, and ring nut or lining 11 are designed to coaxial arrangement on its peripheral wall, at least be arranged in and have predetermined shaft on the part of elongation, be i.e. a part or whole part elongation of the cylindrical wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3.Barrier film 2 is facing to the opening of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, the overlapping outside that overlays the peripheral cylindrical wall of described cup-shaped member 3 of its peripheral flange.Therefore, this barrier film machinery remains between the outside and ring nut or lining 11 of cylindrical wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, and wherein said rigidity cup-shaped member 3 is installed in ring nut or the lining 11.If rigidity cup-shaped member 3 and lining or ring nut 13 are by the metal manufacturing, these two parts can be by shrinkage or by lining or ring nut 12 are radially exerted pressure and combination near the cylindrical wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, and before described combination can occur in and be applied to closing device on the container or during applying, this application is included in the rotating closed device of opening of container, to form for example outside thread, with oncus in closing device and vessel port, the fin that mutually combines between annular shoulder and/or the recess, this application is used for closed container at present, for example in the metal valve protection cap of bottle or analogue.
If rigidity cup-shaped member 3 and lining or ring nut 11 or 13 are by the plastics manufacturing, so, these two parts can be by elasticity and/or bayonet fitting and/or welding and/or gluing or other is chemical and/or physical adherence is arranged and connected, and may install to engage with previous bayonet fitting or elastic force to combine.Possible, the circular cone profile can slightly be justified or be shrunk to the free edge of the opening of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, so that insert in lining or the ring nut 11.
The different embodiment of Fig. 5 disclose a kind of reverse, and wherein lining 13 or ring nut 11 are designed to inject in the rigidity cup-shaped member 3, and therefore the diameter dimension of described two parts is suitable.In this case, barrier film 2 is facing to the end of lining 13 or ring nut 11, so that be arranged in the inboard of rigidity cup-shaped member 3.Basically as described in the previous embodiment of Fig. 4, barrier film is connected with lining or ring nut 11, and lining or ring nut 11 combine with rigidity cup-shaped member 3.
Fig. 6 shows different embodiment, wherein except the barrier film 2 of the embodiment of Fig. 2, plate-like sealing 4 or analogue is set also.
In Fig. 7, the closed-wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3 has an aperture 9, and this aperture 9 is closed outside by the transparent wall 8 of the described aperture 9 of sealing, and sealing for example is to be adhesive on the inboard of corresponding wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, and even can be made up of seal ring.
Fig. 3 is the variation example of the embodiment of displayed map 2 again, wherein, predetermined axial component along the cylindrical wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, or along the predetermined axial component of ring nut 11, the cylinder peripheral wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3 is interrupted, promptly form, yet the present invention is not limited in this situation of method that only makes things convenient for barrier film 2 to use by the wall part that separates by breach 12.
Figure 14 or 15 or 16 shows that closing device is installed in the typical method on the bottle 1.Utilize the principle on surface of diaphragm seal container 1 basic identical with embodiment described below.
When closing device is installed in the opening of container 1, with this assembly axis on the opening that is advanced to container 1, thereby on barrier film, exert pressure and make its stretching, extension.Under these states, barrier film stretches.Divide the period of the day from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m greatly when the elastic body that forms barrier film has promptly mutual slip of plasticity, by part elasticity, it also can partly recover its initial configuration after stretching, extension.Particularly, when the barrier film 2 by such poly-mer manufacturing is arranged on the opening of container 1, and simultaneously along opening shaft to stretching, extension, for example by compound valve protection cap is installed therein, reduce with the quantity of material in the coaxial cross section of opening, because these cross sections are near the opening of container 1.Therefore produced plane of revolution, its bus is parabolic.
In case the longitudinal stress in the plastic material is eliminated, because how much and mechanical reason have higher elastic characteristic along the axis vertical with the vertical stretching direction, produce the hoop blockage effect in the concentric cross-sectional that is parallel to plane of revolution, therefore, cause barrier film 2 to make the outward flange of opening crinkled.This contraction or a crinkled effect might obtain very high force value according to barrier film 2 thickness, and always actv. is guaranteed fine and close sealing effectiveness.
Simultaneously, barrier film 2 can advantageously be installed on the rigidity valve protection cap 3 by the opening of heating barrier film 2 and rigidity valve protection cap 3 and container 1.In fact, heating causes the technical performance of plastic material to change, so that its adhesion.
Compound valve protection cap of the present invention can selectively use elastic seal 4.For health and sealing purpose, sealing 4 typically is positioned between cap 3 and barrier film 2.But it also representative type directly be contained in the valve protection cap 3.
At Figure 14,15 particularly among Figure 16, the rigidity cup-shaped member 3 that is also referred to as valve protection cap is made up of screw cap, it comprises anti-tamper seal ring, the sealing ring connects the remainder of rigidity cup-shaped member 3 by tear line, i.e. Shi Ji screw cap, thus this tear line need just can be torn with predetermined breaking force and prevents to distort.
If cup-shaped member is by the metal manufacturing, can form its screw thread in known manner, the guaranteeing of the predetermined tear line of seal ring 36 and rigidity cup-shaped member 3 combines needed further distortion arbitrarily with bottle 1 opening, this manufacturing process comprises the open outer side rotation of cup-shaped member at bottle 1, bottle has oncus that forms outside thread 101 and the shoulder 35 that is used for axially keeping seal ring, and seal ring is represented with numeral 36.
Then, closing device is installed on the opening, and is pulled to and compresses opening, against the corresponding wall of rigidity cup-shaped member 3, therefore makes barrier film 2 distortion, so that obtain above-mentioned effect up to the edge of container 1 opening.
