The specific embodiment
Shown in preferred implementation in (Fig. 1-15), packing element 10 (Fig. 1-5) is configured to a lid that has negative thread 12.Thereby packing element 12 comprises and has the columniform cover of being roughly of several juts and shoulder surface 14.Circumferential registration ring 16 (Fig. 4) is arranged on 14 places, outer cover surface.Steady ring 16 is used for positioning security element 18 (Fig. 6-9), and in the embodiment shown, safety element 18 also is configured to a lid, and when assembling seal cover cap its fully around packing element 10 (Figure 14).Then, steady ring 16 joins in the circumferential groove 20 (Fig. 9) at 22 places, internal sleeve surface that are arranged on safety element 18 (Figure 14).
In addition, the outer cover surface 14 of packing element 10 is provided with the release gear that has two backstops 24,26 and buckle element 28.Release gear is used for securely packing element 10 being connected with safety element 18 (face as follows).Another release gear 24,26,28 is arranged on the opposite side on outer cover surface 14 of packing element 14 (Fig. 5).
End face 30 places at packing element 10 are provided with actuating device 32, and in the embodiment shown, it is configured to the diclinic road.Actuating device 32 is used for activating the indicating device 34 (Fig. 6-9) that is arranged on safety element 18.In addition, between two lids, promptly between packing element 10 and safety element 18, can settle a projection.
In addition, 30 places are provided with ring-shaped protrusion 36 at end face, thereby form locker room 38 in this ring-shaped protrusion 36.In the locker room 38 at end face 30 places, the cylindrical shut-off block 40 of pressure compensation device is set, it further comprises and is arranged on the cutting element 44 (Fig. 8) that inside face 42 (Fig. 9) is located.
In addition, packing element 10 is provided with endless groove 48 (Fig. 4) in the lid inboard.Seal ring 50 (Figure 14,15) is set in groove 48.When (Figure 14), the upper limb 52 of the bottleneck 54 of container also is arranged in the groove 48 when screwing top cover labyrinth.Therefore, seal ring 50 is compressed and has the cross-sectional plane of basic rectangle, thereby the part of seal ring is arranged between the madial wall 56 and cell wall 58 of container neck.Thus, guaranteed the sealing of container outlet 60 by seal cover cap according to the present invention.In Figure 10 and 11, all show seal ring 50.
For seal cover cap is installed, for example, the packing element 10 that is configured to cover at first is screwed on the bottleneck 54 of container, and the screw thread 12 of packing element engages into the screw thread 62 that is arranged on bottleneck.Thus, upper limb 52 is imported in the groove 48 of packing element inboard.Thereby container is closely sealed.In addition, the circumferential gasket 66 of lower edge 64 contacting containers of packing element is guaranteed further sealing thus.
In next step, the safety element 18 (Fig. 6-9) that is configured to equally cover in illustrated embodiment is pressed onto on the packing element that is in the tram from the top.Its choice of location is to make the cutting edge 68 (Fig. 8) of cutting element 44 be arranged on the front of shut-off block 40 on the left-hand revolution direction.Then, two relative buckle elements 70 that are arranged on madial wall 22 places of safety element (Fig. 8) are arranged on the front of the chute shape buckle element 28 that is positioned at relative position (Fig. 2,3) equally on the left-hand revolution direction.And, be arranged on cylindrical indicating device 34 that end face 72 (Fig. 6) locates and also on the left-hand revolution direction, be arranged on front as the diclinic road of actuating device 32.
As long as aforesaid element is positioned at the front of corresponding element on the left-hand revolution direction, seal cover cap just is in the off position that container never was opened.In order to open for the first time container, be about to seal cover cap and transfer to the open position, safety element 18 rotates in the counterclockwise direction.Because the friction between packing element 10 and bottleneck 54, packing element 10 is in not rotation jointly at the beginning.When further rotating in the counterclockwise direction, indicating device 34 towards the actuating device 32 that is configured to the diclinic road move and by chute 32 towards external pressure, thereby indicating device 34 position changes and be forced out the outside 74 (Fig. 7).Because the position change of this indicating device 34, can be clear that also tangiblely to be opened to container.Will be for fear of losing by firmly touching the indicating device of perceiving 34, indicating device 34 is connected on the safety element 18 by connecting panel 88 (Fig. 6).
During rotation, buckle element 70 (Fig. 6) slides on the chute shape buckle element 28 at 14 places, the outside of locating and be arranged on packing element 10 toward each other simultaneously, and in this zone, safety element 18 is elastic deformation slightly.After buckle element 70 was crossed chute shape buckle element 28, they were engaged in the gap 76 between buckle element 28 and the backstop 26 in (Fig. 2,3).As long as buckle element 70 is engaged in the gap 76, just no longer may under not simultaneously with packing element 10 situation together, be rotated in a clockwise direction back safety element 18.Also no longer may under not simultaneously with packing element 10 situation together, continue spin safe element 18 in the counterclockwise direction.Thereby,, fully open container because packing element 10 together rotates with it by spin safe element 18 in the counterclockwise direction continuously.
With above two steps (promptly activate indicating devices 34 and buckle element 70 is snapped in the groove 76) actuation pressure compensating device 40,44 side by side by actuating device 32.For this reason, 38 centers are provided with cylindrical protrusions 78 (Fig. 2) in the locker room, and it engages into (Fig. 6-9) in the cylinder shape groove 80.And, in the inboard 72 of safety element 18 nose 82 (Fig. 9) that engages into guide groove 84 (Fig. 2) is set.When safety element 18 rotated for the first time in the counterclockwise direction, the cutting edge 68 of cutting element 44 was removed shut-off block 40 at indicating device 34 in external pressure and bayonet unit 70 engagings.By removing shut-off block 40, the pressure equalisation openings 86 (Fig. 1) that is arranged on shut-off block 40 belows is opened.Its advantage is that a spot of gas can be discharged by pressure equalisation openings 86, therefore, more easily carries out the open operation first time.Because locker room 38 is limited by the inboard 72 of ring 36, end face 30 and safety element 18, guaranteed that the shut-off block 40 that separates is retained in the locker room 38.
Now, seal cover cap is in the open position, and wherein safety element 18 and packing element 10 are together with rotation.Now, seal cover cap can be screwed on the container and once more repeatedly and screw off.
In a preferred implementation again (Figure 16), ring-type safety element 90 is arranged in the packing element 92 that is configured to cover.In this embodiment, indicating device is arranged on the cover surface of packing element 92, and is activated by the lip-deep actuating device of the outer cover that is attached to ring-type safety element 90.Also between two cover surfaces of packing element 92 and ring-type safety element 18, the needed release gear that generally includes buckle element is set.If desired, in this zone suitably design-calculated pressure compensation device can also be set.
