Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closure for a container, for example a can closure cap, for powders or granular products with a closable opening for the optional delivery of the powdery or granular container contents, in particular by pressure exerted on the container.
  • Previous packaging for example cans, from which powder is removed by pressure on the flexible packaging container, is equipped with closures that open openings for removing the container contents by rotating a slide or opening a hinged flap.
  • closures that open openings for removing the container contents by rotating a slide or opening a hinged flap.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a closure of the type mentioned, with which a directed powder jet can be generated, which can be applied selectively to a surface and ensures trouble-free removal of the container contents.
  • the solution to this problem according to the invention is that the opening of the closure is designed as a stepped outlet channel with an inner channel facing the container interior and an outer channel adjoining it to the outside, and that the opening cross section of the inner channel is small compared to the opening cross section of the outer channel.
  • the outlet channel of the closure is designed in a stepped manner according to the invention, the internal opening cross section being smaller than that facing outwards. It is thereby achieved that in the case of a container filling consisting of powder or granular products, bridging and thus clogging of the outlet channel during removal is avoided.
  • the closure according to the invention accordingly works without problems.
  • the dimensioning of the outlet channel also ensures that when the channel is opened and, for example, the flexible container is compressed, a directed powder jet emerges from the channel, which enables a targeted product application.
  • a directed powder jet emerges from the channel, which enables a targeted product application.
  • the channel opening is preferably provided laterally on the closure according to the invention, in particular in the form of a can closure cap, while the slide closure is intended to be arranged vertically to close the channel opening.
  • the slide with the opening cross-section of the outer channel is expediently designed to have the same contour and is mounted in such a way that the opening hole of the slide meets the clear cross-section of the outer channel when opening and any residues are returned in the interior of the closure when closing, the latter, for example, in the case of caustic products is of particular advantage.
  • the slide should continue to be movably supported in a slide bearing provided on the outside of the outer channel. It is advantageous if at least one cam is provided on the slide, in particular on one or both of its longitudinal ends, as a means of securing against loss as a means for actuating the slide. One cam then serves as its stop when the slide is opened.
  • a closure cap 1 is on the opening side of a box with a circular cross cut trained flexible container 2 placed.
  • a bead ring arrangement 3 can serve as attachment.
  • the outlet duct 7 is partially let into the inner cylinder 6.
  • the outlet channel 7 consists of the narrow and short inner channel 8 and the further and long outer channel 9.
  • the inner channel 8 connects the container interior 10 to the outer channel 9, while the latter leads to the outlet opening 11 in the lateral outer wall 12 of the closure cap 1.
  • a slide 13 is adjustably mounted in a slide bearing 15 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction 14 of the outlet channel 7.
  • the slide has a passage opening 16 which is connected to the passage. flow cross-section of the outer channel 9 is the same contour.
  • the passage opening 16 can be made to coincide with the outer channel 9.
  • the outlet channel 7 is then open
  • a raster nose or cam 18 can be attached to its lower end, which abuts a stop 19 when the slide 13 is pulled out.
  • a similar cam 20 can be provided at the other end of the slide 13 in order to pull out the slide 13 and thus the Facilitate opening of the closure.
  • the contents of the container can be conveyed through the inner channel 8 into the outer channel 9 and through the passage opening 16 of the slide 13, for example with the aid of pressure exerted on the flexible container 2.
  • the outlet duct 7 according to the invention is designed in a stepped manner, no bridge of the powder or the granular products can form in it, so that a clogging of the outlet duct 7 is usually impossible.
  • the powder jet is bundled through the inner channel 8 and aligned through the outer channel 9 so that a powder jet can be produced with the closure according to the invention, which enables a targeted product application.
  • the length of the inner channel 8 should be approximately 1 mm at maximum, while the length and diameter of the outer channel 9 are values of approximately 8 mm and 6 mm, respectively.
  • any residues are returned to the outer channel 9 and thus to the interior of the closure when the slide is closed. A substantial re-sprinkling of the container contents can therefore no longer occur after closing. This is particularly advantageous if the contents of the container are a caustic product, for example a toilet cleaning product.
  • the parts of the outlet channel 7 preferably have a round, in particular criss-shaped, opening cross section.
  • the outer channel 9 is generally a straight continuation of the inner channel 8. This also prevents problems with the removal of the container contents.
