Pouring lid for a container, espacially a refill box, for powder products, wherein a part of the lid is a flap to be opened through a film hinge extending obliquely to the rim of the container in the lid surface and wherein a locating tongue standing substantially perpendicularly to the lid surface is added to the inside of the lid surface of the flap and the circular arc described by the free end of the locating means on actuation of the flap cuts the plane of the inside surface of the container wall at the container rim associated with the flap, characterized thereby, that the circular arc described by the free end of the locating tongue (7) cuts the plane of the inside surface (11) of the container wall (12) with the flap (5) opened through about 60 degrees and the free end of the locating tongue (7) thereby climbs onto the container rim (10).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schüttdeckel zu einem Behälter, insbesondere einer NachfUllbox, für Pulverprodukte.The invention relates to a pouring lid for a container, in particular a refill box, for powder products.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen wiederverschließbaren und aus einem Teil bestehenden Schüttdeckel zu schaffen, der ohne ein Nachkonfektionieren herstellbar ist und auf einfache Weise, nämlich mit einer Hand, bedient werden kann. Ein Teil des neuen Schüttdeckels soll dabei unabhängig vom übrigen Deckelteil zu öffnen und in der geöffneten Stellung arretierbar sein. Ferner wird angestrebt, den Schüttdeckel so auszubilden, daß beim Betätigen des zu öffnenden Teils nicht der ganze Deckel von dem Behälter, der insbesondere eine Dose sein kann, abgezogen wird.The invention has for its object to provide a reclosable and one-part pouring lid that can be manufactured without re-assembly and can be operated in a simple manner, namely with one hand. Part of the new pouring lid should be opened independently of the remaining lid part and should be lockable in the open position. Another aim is to design the pouring lid in such a way that when the part to be opened is not actuated, the entire lid is not pulled off the container, which can in particular be a can.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung dieser Aufgabe besteht darin, daß ein Teil des Deckels eine über ein schräg zum Rand des Behälters in der Deckelfläche verlaufendes Filmscharnier zu öffnende Klappe ist, daß an die Innenseite der -Deckelfläche der Klappe eine im wesentlichen senkrecht zu der Deckelfläche stehender Arretierzunge angesetzt ist und daß der von dem freien Ende der Arretierzunge beim Betätigen der Klappe beschriebene Kreisbogen die Ebene der Innenfläche der Behälterwand an dem der Klappe zugeordneten Behälterrand schneidet.The solution to this problem according to the invention is that part of the lid is a flap that can be opened via a film hinge that runs obliquely to the edge of the container in the lid surface, that a locking tongue that is essentially perpendicular to the lid surface is attached to the inside of the lid surface of the flap and that the circular arc described by the free end of the locking tongue when the flap is actuated intersects the plane of the inner surface of the container wall on the container edge assigned to the flap.

Durch die Erfindung wird erreicht, daß die Arretierzunge beim Öffnen der Klappe auf den Rand des Behälters klettert und beim Schließen der Klappe wieder von dem Rand abgleitet. Die Wirkungsweise der Arretierzunge wird begünstigt, wenn ihr freies Ende-bzw. ihre Unterkante linsenförmig abgerundet ist. Wenn gewünscht ist, daß die Klappe bei einem Öffnungswinkel von etwa 60° arretierbar sein soll, wird erfindungsgemäß die Lage und die Länge der Arretierzunge so gewählt, daß der von dem freien Ende der Arretierzunge beschriebene Kreisbogen die Ebene der Innenfläche der Behälterwand bei um etwa 60° geöffnete Klappe schneidet. Etwa bei diesem oder einem anderen vorbestimmten Öffnungswinkel klettert dann das freie Ende der Arretierzunge auf den Behälterrand und sorgt dafür, daß die Klappe nicht wieder von selbst zuschlägt.The invention ensures that the locking tongue climbs onto the edge of the container when the flap is opened and slides off the edge again when the flap is closed. The mode of action of the locking tongue is favored if its free end or. its lower edge is rounded like a lens. If it is desired that the flap should be lockable at an opening angle of approximately 60 °, the position and the length of the locking tongue are selected according to the invention such that the circular arc described by the free end of the locking tongue changes the plane of the inner surface of the container wall by approximately 60 ° open flap cuts. At this or another predetermined opening angle, the free end of the locking tongue then climbs onto the edge of the container and ensures that the flap does not close again by itself.

Vorzugsweise besteht der erfindungsgemäße Schüttdeckel aus Kunststoff, zum Beispiel aus Polyäthylen oder Polypropylen, und ist als Schnappdeckel ausgebildet. Ein Teil dieses Schnappdeckels ist die erfindungsgemäße Klappe, die über das Filmscharnier relativ zum Schnappdeckel betätigbar ist. Die Form und die Länge der zum Arretieren der Klappe bei einem bestimmten öffnungswinkel vorgesehenen Arretierzunge ist dabei u. a. auch so gewählt, daß die Zunge beim Zudrücken der Klappe wieder von dem Rand des Behälters abgleitet.The pouring lid according to the invention preferably consists of plastic, for example of polyethylene or polypropylene, and is designed as a snap lid. Part of this snap cover is the flap according to the invention, which can be actuated via the film hinge relative to the snap cover. The shape and length of the to lock the flap at a certain opening angle provided locking tongue is also chosen so that the tongue slides again from the edge of the container when the flap is closed.

Der erfindungsgemäßen gegenseitigen Zuordnung von Filmscharnier, Behälterrand und Arretierzunge sowie der Wahl der Länge der Zunge liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, daß sich der Abstand zwischen dem Behälterrand und der Unterkante bzw. dem freien Ende der Arretierzunge beim Öffnen der Klappe verringern muß. Diese Bedingung ist bei rechteckigen Deckelformen beispielsweise erfüllbar, wenn das Filmscharnier etwa diagonal zu einer Deckelecke verläuft. Bei runden Deckelformen soll demgemäß die Achse des Filmscharniers eine Sehne der Deckelfläche bilden.The mutual assignment according to the invention of the film hinge, container edge and locking tongue and the choice of the length of the tongue is based on the knowledge that the distance between the container edge and the lower edge or the free end of the locking tongue must be reduced when the flap is opened. With rectangular lid shapes, this condition can be met, for example, if the film hinge runs approximately diagonally to a corner of the lid. In the case of round lid shapes, the axis of the film hinge should accordingly form a chord of the lid surface.

Schließlich ist es gemäß weiterer Erfindung günstig, wenn bei Ausbildung des Schüttdeckels als Schnappdeckel dieser zusätzlich zum umlaufenden Hinterschnitt im Anschluß an die Klappe Rippen aufweist, die gegen die Innenseite der Dose drücken. Dadurch wird erreicht, daß beim Öffnen der Klappe nicht der ganze Deckel abgezogen wird, daß die Schnappwirkung des Hinterschnitts im Bereich der zusätzlichen Rippen verstärkt ist.Finally, according to a further invention, it is advantageous if, when the pouring lid is designed as a snap lid, it has ribs in addition to the circumferential undercut, which press against the inside of the can. This ensures that when the flap is opened, the entire cover is not removed, and the snap action of the undercut is increased in the region of the additional ribs.

Der erfindungsgemäße Schüttdeckel ist für praktisch jede Form und Größe eines Behälters geeignet.The pouring lid according to the invention is suitable for practically every shape and size of a container.

Anhand der schematischen Darstellung eines Ausführungsbeispiels werden weitere Einzelheiten der Erfindung erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 die Draufsicht auf den Schüttdeckel;
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt längs der Linie A-B von Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 die Ansicht C von Fig. 1; und
  • Fig. 4 die Ansicht des Deckels gemäß Fig. 1 von unten.
Further details of the invention are explained on the basis of the schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment. Show it:
  • Figure 1 is a plan view of the pouring lid.
  • Fig. 2 is a section along the line AB of Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is view C of Fig. 1; and
  • Fig. 4 shows the view of the lid of FIG. 1 from below.

Gemäß Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 1 bis 4 besteht der insgesamt mit 1 bezeichnete Schüttdeckel aus einer Deckelfläche 2 mit im wesentlichen umlaufend angesetztem Hinterschnitt 3 und einer mit der Deckelfläche 2 über ein Filmscharnier 4 verbundenen Klappe 5. Auf die Unterseite der Klappe 5 ist in der Nähe des Filmscharniers 4 sowie des Deckelrandes 6 eine im wesentlichen senkrecht zur Deckelfläche 2 stehende Arretierzunge 7 aufgesetzt. Außerdem können am Rand des Deckels benachbart und im Anschluß zur Klappe 5 zusätzliche Schnapprippen 8 vorgesehen sein, die gegen die Innenfläche der Behälterwand drücken und dazu dienen zu verhindern, daß sich der Hauptteil des Deckels 1 beim öffnen der Klappe 5 vom Behälter 9 löst.According to the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 4, the pouring lid, designated as a whole by 1, consists of a lid surface 2 with an essentially all-round undercut 3 and a flap 5 connected to the lid surface 2 via a film hinge 4. The underside of the flap 5 is nearby of the film hinge 4 and the lid edge 6 a locking tongue 7 which is substantially perpendicular to the lid surface 2. In addition, 5 additional ribs 8 can be provided adjacent to the edge of the lid and in connection to the flap, which press against the inner surface of the container wall and serve to prevent the main part of the lid 1 from detaching from the container 9 when the flap 5 is opened.

Wesentlich ist, daß das Filmscharnier 4 schräg zum Rand 10 des Behälters 9 in der Deckelfläche 2 verläuft. Dadurch wird erreicht, daß das freie Ende der an die Innenseite der Deckelfläche der Klappe 5 angesetzten Arretierzunge 7 beim Betätigen - also beim Öffnen und Schließen - der Klappe 5 einen Kreisbogen beschreibt, der die Ebene 11 der Innenfläche der Behälterwand 12 an dem der Klappe 5 zugeordneten Behälterrand 10 schneidet. Mit anderen Worten bedeutet das, daß das freie Ende der Arretierzunge 7 beim Öffnen der Klappe 5 auf den Rand des Behälters 9 klettert und beim Schließen der Klappe 5 wieder von dem Rand 10 abgleitet. Das Auf- und Absteigen der Arretierzunge 7 auf dem Behälterrand 10 wird erleichtert, wenn das freie Ende der Arretierzunge 7 linsenförmig abgerundet ist. Da die Achse des Filmscharniers 4 schräg zum Rand des Deckels 1 bzw. zur Behälterwand 12 steht, verringert sich beim öffnen der Klappe 5 (wie gewünscht) der Abstand zwischen Behälter 10 und Unterkante der Arretierzunge 7. Ebenso wird dieser Abstand beim Schließen der Klappe 5 wieder vergrößert. Das bedeutet also, daß bei passend gewählter Länge und Position der Arretierzunge 7 die Klappe 5 in einem vorbestimmten Öffnungswinkel arretierbar ist.It is essential that the film hinge 4 extends obliquely to the edge 10 of the container 9 in the cover surface 2. It is thereby achieved that the free end of the locking tongue 7 attached to the inside of the lid surface of the flap 5, when actuated - that is to say when opening and closing - the flap 5 describes a circular arc which defines the plane 11 of the inner surface of the container wall 12 on that of the flap 5 assigned container edge 10 cuts. In other words, this means that the free end of the locking tongue 7 climbs onto the edge of the container 9 when the flap 5 is opened and slides off the edge 10 again when the flap 5 is closed. The ascent and descent of the locking tongue 7 on the container edge 10 is facilitated if the free end of the locking tongue 7 is rounded off in a lens shape. Since the Axis of the film hinge 4 is oblique to the edge of the lid 1 or to the container wall 12, the distance between the container 10 and the lower edge of the locking tongue 7 decreases when the flap 5 is opened. This distance is also increased again when the flap 5 is closed . This means that with a suitably selected length and position of the locking tongue 7, the flap 5 can be locked in a predetermined opening angle.

Bei dem mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Schüttdeckel bzw. Schnappdeckel zu verschließenden Behälter kann es sich praktisch um jede Verpackungsform und -größe handeln, die für Pulverprodukte vorgesehen ist und ausreichend steife Wände aufweist. Spezialformen sind beispielsweise Nachfüllboxen oder Dosen.The container to be closed with the pouring lid or snap lid according to the invention can be practically any packaging shape and size that is intended for powder products and has sufficiently rigid walls. Special forms are, for example, refill boxes or cans.
