Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Stopfen für einen Behälter mit einem Deckel, dessen Rand mit einer den Hals des Behälters umgreifenden Umfangswand verbunden ist, und mit einer mit einer äußeren umlaufenden Ringwulst versehenen Olivendichtung zum klemmenden Eingriff in die Behälteröffnung.The invention relates to a stopper for a container with a lid, the edge of which is connected to a peripheral wall encompassing the neck of the container, and with an olive seal provided with an outer circumferential annular bead for clamping engagement in the container opening.

Der Zweck der Ringdichtung, vorzugsweise der Olivendichtung, besteht darin, den Behälterinhalt dicht zu verschließen, weshalb die Abmessungen so getroffen sind, dass die Olivendichtung in einem Klemmsitz in dem Behälterhals sitzt. Dieser Klemmsitz erschwert es aber, den Stopfen von dem Behälter abzuziehen oder in einer Schräglage abzuhebeln, was dann zu einem Problem werden kann, wenn durch unvermeidliche Herstellungstoleranzen des Stopfens und/oder des Behälters die Olivendichtung in einen so festen Klemmsitz in dem Behälterhals steckt, dass eine beträchtliche Kraft erforderlich ist, um die an dem Deckel angeformte Umfangswand und die Olivendichtung von dem Behälterhals zu trennen. Dies kann für Personen mit geringer Kraft in den Händen zu einem unlösbaren Problem werden.The purpose of the ring seal, preferably the olive seal, is to seal the contents of the container tightly, which is why the dimensions are such that the olive seal sits in a press fit in the container neck. This press fit makes it difficult to pull the stopper off the container or to pry it off in an inclined position, which can become a problem if the olive seal is so tightly clamped in the container neck due to inevitable manufacturing tolerances of the stopper and / or the container that considerable force is required to separate the peripheral wall formed on the lid and the olive seal from the container neck. This can become an insoluble problem for those with little strength in their hands.

Die Oliven-Ringdichtungen der bisher bekannten Stopfen haben eine glatte, geschlossene Innenwandfläche, die der Olivendichtung eine beträchtliche Steifigkeit verleiht.The olive ring seals of the previously known stoppers have a smooth, closed inner wall surface which gives the olive seal considerable rigidity.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Stopfen für einen Behälter anzugeben, der mit geringeren Kräften von dem zugehörigen Behälter abgenommen oder abgehebelt werden kann und bei dem dennoch gewährleistet ist, dass der Behälterinhalt sicher abgedichtet ist.The present invention is based on the object of specifying a stopper for a container which can be removed or levered off from the associated container with less force and which nevertheless ensures that the container contents are securely sealed.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of claim 1.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.

Die Erfindung sieht vor, dass die Olivendichtung an ihrer Innenseite eine geriffelte Wandfläche aufweist, die durch eine Vielzahl von in Längsrichtung des Stopfens verlaufende Nuten und Stege der Wand der Olivendichtung gebildet ist. Durch diese Ausbildung wird erreicht, dass beim schrägen Abhebeln des Stopfens von dem Behälterhals die Olivendichtung an der Seite des Kraftangriffs zusammengedrückt wird, wobei sich die Breite der Nuten verringert, mit der Folge, dass die Klemmkraft der Olivendichtung reduziert wird und der Stopfen leichter von dem Behälter seitlich abgehebelt werden kann. Überraschenderweise hat sich gezeigt, dass sich die geriffelte Wandfläche weniger stark auf die Anpresskraft in der Verschlussstellung des Stopfens in dem Behälter auswirkt, so dass die Olivendichtung mit ihrer glatten Außenfläche die Dichtigkeit des Behälterinhalts gewährleisten kann. Damit ist das seitliche Abhebeln der Olivendichtung zum Abnehmen des Stopfens von dem Behälter erheblich erleichtert, wobei der Behälterinhalt bis dahin dicht verschlossen ist.The invention provides that the olive seal has a corrugated wall surface on its inside, which is formed by a plurality of grooves and webs of the wall of the olive seal running in the longitudinal direction of the stopper. This design ensures that when the stopper is levered off the container neck at an angle, the olive seal is compressed on the side of the force application, the width of the grooves being reduced, with the result that the clamping force of the olive seal is reduced and the stopper is easier to remove from the Container can be levered off at the side. Surprisingly, it has been shown that the corrugated wall surface has less of an effect on the pressing force in the closed position of the stopper in the container, so that the olive seal with its smooth outer surface can ensure the tightness of the container contents. This considerably facilitates the lateral levering off of the olive seal in order to remove the stopper from the container, the contents of the container being tightly sealed until then.

In weiteren Einzelheiten der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Nuten eine in Längsrichtung gleichbleibende Form und Tiefe haben. Es ist aber auch denkbar, dass die Breite und/oder Tiefe der Nuten in Längsrichtung variiert, beispielsweise zum Rand der Olivendichtung zunimmt, um das Abnehmen des Stopfens weiter zu erleichtern.In further details of the invention it is proposed that the grooves have a shape and depth that are constant in the longitudinal direction. However, it is also conceivable that the width and / or depth of the grooves varies in the longitudinal direction, for example increases towards the edge of the olive seal, in order to further facilitate the removal of the stopper.

Die Nuten sollten eine Tiefe von 10% bis 50% der minimalen Wandstärke der Olivendichtung haben.The grooves should have a depth of 10% to 50% of the minimum wall thickness of the olive gasket.

Bezüglich der zwischen den Nuten verbleibenden Stege an der Innenseite der Olivendichtung ist querschnittlich eine gewölbte Form bevorzugt.With regard to the webs remaining between the grooves on the inside of the olive seal, an arched shape is preferred in terms of cross-section.

Die erfindungsgemäß geriffelte Olivendichtung kann Teil eines Stopfens sein, dessen Deckel eine durchgehende Kreisform hat, wobei die Olivendichtung radial innerhalb der Umfangswand an dem Deckel angeformt ist, wie dies bei den herkömmlichen Stopfen der Fall ist. Die erfindungsgemäße Olivendichtung kann aber auch Bestandteil eines Stopfens sein, bei dem der Deckel eine kreisförmige konzentrische Vertiefungsrinne enthält, die eine radial äußere Ringwand und eine radial innere Ringwand enthält, die durch eine Bodenwand verbunden sind, wobei die radial äußere Ringwand als Olivendichtung geformt ist, die an ihrer radialen Innenseite die geriffelte Wandfläche aufweist. Bei beiden Ausführungsformen des Stopfens hat die geriffelte innere Wandfläche der Olivendichtung zur Folge, dass die zum schrägen Abhebeln des Stopfens erforderliche Kraft verringert ist, während ein ausreichend hoher Anpressdruck beim Sitz des Stopfens in dem Behälterhals trotz der Riffelung gewährleistet ist. The inventive grooved olive seal can be part of a stopper, the cover of which has a continuous circular shape, the olive seal being formed on the cover radially inside the peripheral wall, as is the case with conventional stoppers. The olive seal according to the invention can, however, also be part of a plug in which the cover contains a circular, concentric recess groove which contains a radially outer ring wall and a radially inner ring wall which are connected by a bottom wall, the radially outer ring wall being shaped as an olive seal, which has the corrugated wall surface on its radial inside. In both embodiments of the stopper, the corrugated inner wall surface of the olive seal means that the force required to pry off the stopper at an angle is reduced, while a sufficiently high contact pressure is ensured when the stopper is seated in the container neck despite the corrugation.

In weiteren Einzelheiten der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, dass an der Unterkante der Umfangwand des Stopfens ein umlaufender abreißbarer Sicherungsring zur Originalitätssicherung des Behälterinhalts mit nach innen weisenden Blockieransätzen angeformt ist, die in der Befestigungslage des Stopfens einen nach außen weisenden Ringvorsprung des Behälters untergreifen. Dieser Originalitätssicherungsring gewährleistet, dass der Behälterinhalt nicht unbefugt manipuliert werden kann. Wenn ein Benutzer erstmalig den Stopfen von dem Behälter abnehmen möchte, muss er zuvor den Originalitätssicherungsring von der Unterkante der den Behälter umgreifenden Umfangswand abreißen, woraufhin er den Stopfen von dem Behälterhals abhebeln kann.In further details of the invention it is proposed that on the lower edge of the circumferential wall of the stopper a circumferential tear-off locking ring for securing the tamper-evident nature of the container contents is formed with inwardly pointing blocking lugs which, in the fastening position of the stopper, engage under an outwardly pointing annular projection of the container. This tamper-evident ring ensures that the contents of the container cannot be tampered with without authorization. If a user wants to remove the stopper from the container for the first time, he must first tear off the tamper-evident ring from the lower edge of the circumferential wall surrounding the container, whereupon he can pry the stopper off the container neck.

Der Stopfen besteht zweckmäßigerweise aus LDPE, ohne dass die Erfindung hierauf beschränkt ist.The stopper is expediently made of LDPE, without the invention being restricted thereto.

Weitere Einzelheiten ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform. Dabei zeigen die Figuren:

  • 1 einen schematischen Längsschnitt durch einen Deckel mit angeformter herkömmlicher Olivendichtung und
  • 2 einen Schnitt durch einen Deckel eines Stopfens mit einer erfindungsgemäßen Olivendichtung.
