The specific embodiment
With reference to Fig. 2-6, illustrate respectively closed component 5 in the preferred embodiment of the present utility model before first opening operation, among, afterwards part sectional view and topple over the state and the part sectional view of osed top state again when liquid.Wherein closed component 5 comprises: open indication piece 10; Topple over outlet member 40; Sleeve pipe 50; Container-closure 30 and outer tube 60.
Toppling over outlet member 40 works in coordination and internal communication with sleeve pipe 50, form a bottleneck assembly 20, topple over outlet member 40 and have upper end open 402,404, sleeve pipe 50 has lower ending opening 502, sleeve pipe 50 preferably stretches in the vessel port in a tubular form and to small part, and outer tube 60 is fixed on bottleneck assembly 20 on the vessel port outside vessel port.
Open indication piece 10 and comprise top 104 and bottom 106, the size on top 104 is greater than the lower ending opening 502 of sleeve pipe 50, but the size of bottom 106 is less than the lower ending opening 502 of sleeve pipe 50, like this, when assembling closed component 5, needn't clamp-on from the lower ending opening 502 of sleeve pipe 50 and open indication piece 10.If in PCT/GB2004/000189, the size of opening the top 104 of indication piece 10 and bottom 106 is all greater than the lower ending opening 502 of sleeve pipe 50, need clamp-on from the top 104 that lower ending opening 502 will be opened indication piece 10 when then assembling.
Container-closure 30 cooperates with bottleneck assembly 20 with removably.Embodiment as shown, container-closure 30 can be a bottle cap, it forms detouchables by screw thread 35 with toppling over of bottleneck assembly 20 between outlet member 40 and cooperates.
Fig. 2 illustrates the state of closed component 5 before opening for the first time.Container-closure 30 cooperates with the outlet member 40 formation detouchables of toppling over of bottleneck assembly 20 by screw thread 35, with the upper end open 404 of the assembly 20 that seals a bottle.The protuberance 302 of container-closure 30 is contained in the recess 102 of opening indication piece 10, the two forms a holding device 32, make that open indication piece 10 and container-closure 30 kept being combined together before first opening, open indication piece 10 at this moment and be in initial position within the closed component 5.Among the embodiment as shown in the figure, the cooperation between recess 102 and the protuberance 302 is the projection 308 and cooperating that the projection 108 on the recess 102 is blocked mutually on the protuberance 302.Cooperation between recess 102 and the protuberance 302 also can be releasable each other friction force or interference DF Drive Fit, and recess 102 and protuberance 302 keep together in the mode of releasable DF Drive Fit when initial position.In other embodiments, the interference fit between recess 102 and the protuberance 302 can be by providing rigidity folder betwixt, for example cooperation groove and rib, ball and socket, or the like.When opening closed component 5 and also be about to container-closure 30 and unclamp with cooperating of bottleneck parts 20, the cooperation of holding device 32 also will be unclamped.
Certainly, holding device also can comprise first holding device, dividing plate and second holding device in a further embodiment, wherein first holding device comprises the corresponding socket that holds described globular part on the globular part of the upper end of opening indication piece and the dividing plate, second holding device comprises the protuberance that is arranged on the dividing plate and the corresponding recess on the container-closure, referring to first embodiment of PCT/GB2004/000189.
State when Fig. 3 shows closed component 5 and opens.Closed component 5 is opened for the first time, that is container-closure 30 unclamps with detachable cooperation of toppling over outlet member 40, makes the cooperation of holding device 32 also unclamp, and opens indication piece 10 and becomes and can move in bottleneck assembly 20, so by gravity begins to drop downwards.The opening 404 (being liquid outlet) of toppling over outlet member 40 is simultaneously no longer sealed by the flange 306 of container-closure 30 and 307.Because the size of bottom 106 of opening indication piece 10 is less than the lower ending opening 502 of sleeve pipe 50, even its underpart 106 is positioned within the bottleneck assembly 20 when opening indication piece 10 and be in initial position, also can move down this moment, allow bottom 106 pass the lower ending opening 502 of sleeve pipe 50, thereby indication piece 10 beginnings of opening that originally are in the closed component 5 are stretched out downwards outside the closed component 5, expose bottom 106.After the cooperation of holding device 32 is unclamped, just can't cooperate once more, the feasible indication piece of opening that exposes that drops becomes irreversible sign, proves that closed component 5 was opened for the first time.
State when Fig. 4 shows opening indication piece 10 and falling to another position (position of promptly dropping) that shows that closed component opened for the first time fully of closed component 5.Because the size on top 104 of opening indication piece 10 is greater than the lower ending opening 502 of sleeve pipe 50, so opening indication piece 10 can not drop out outside the bottleneck parts 20 fully, but has stretched out fully downwards outside the closed component 5 its underpart 106, the visual proof of having been opened for the first time as closed component 5.Preferably, under this state, open indication piece 10 and can serve as valve member, cooperate with the lower ending opening 502 (being the lower ending opening 502 of sleeve pipe 50) of bottleneck assembly 2 to form a boiler check valve, prevent from container, to recharge.In the illustrated embodiment, the top 104 of opening indication piece 10 is spherical in shape, cooperates with circular open 502.The lower openings 502 that is appreciated that the top 104 of opening indication piece 10 and bottleneck assembly 2 can be that other any working in coordination forms the shape of boiler check valve.
Fig. 5 shows in the container state by closed component 5 outside pouring liquids.Open indication piece 10 by gravitys and move back to initial position, blocked the upper end open 402 of toppling over outlet member 40, the liquid in the container is by outside opening 404 flow containers of toppling over outlet member 40.
Fig. 6 shows and closes the state that closed component 5 promptly covers bottle cap again again.Container-closure 30 with topple over outlet member 40 and cooperate again, but the protuberance 302 of container-closure 30 can't cooperate with the recess 102 of opening indication piece 10 again, open indication piece 10 and can't get back to initial position, it is in the position of dropping, stretch out downwards outside the closed component 5 bottom 106, shows that this closed component 5 was opened for the first time.
Fig. 7 shows cutaway view and the lateral plan of opening indication piece 10, and Fig. 8 shows the three-dimensional view of opening indication piece 10.Opening indication piece 10 can be made by the plastics such as polyolefin and/or polyester.In the illustrated embodiment, the bottom 106 of opening indication piece 10 is flats water droplet shape, can be enough noticeable, saved material again.
In PCT/GB2004/000189, open indication piece and need clamp-on from its lower ending opening in being assembled to the bottleneck parts time, comparatively inconvenience.And in the utility model, the lower dimension of opening indication piece when the assembling closed component, needn't be clamp-oned step less than bottleneck parts lower ending opening again, has simplified assembly technology.And, after reducing, the lower dimension of opening indication piece also saved raw MAT'L, and it is made flats and has then further saved raw MAT'L.
It being understood that above and only describe the embodiment of the invention, under the situation of the scope of the invention, can carry out multiple modification by limiting examples.
