Definitions

  • This invention relates to containers, more particularly bottles, having screw-threaded necks and to caps for such containers.
  • a container having a screw-threaded neck the screw-thread ridge of which is formed with one or more transverse notches in its length.
  • the invention provides a screw-cap the screw-thread ridge of which is formed with one or more transverse notches in its length.
  • Such caps will normally be moulded from plastics materials.
  • the invention also provides a container having a screw-threaded neck and a screw-threaded cap screwed on to said neck, the ridge of the screw-thread of the cap and/or of the container having one or more transverse notches in its length.
  • notches in successive turns of the thread may be formed in axial alignment with each other so as to shorten the escape path.
  • the notches should not be of such size as to produce a complementary formation on the cap, and it may be preferable also that the notches in each turn of the thread be circumferentially staggered with respect to those in the other turn or turns so that minor irregularities in the thread on the screw-cap resulting from the rolling-on process are widely distributed along the thread and do not lead to "lumpy" movement of the cap during removal and replacement.
  • the notch or notches may have a radial depth equal to or less than the radial height of the thread- forming ridge.
  • the distances measured along the ridge between adjacent notches may differ.
  • the distances between adjacent notches may be greater at either end of the ridge than the other:
  • the container whose neck portion 10 is shown is in the form of a bottle with an external helical ridge 11 constituting a screw-thread. At intervals along its length notches 12 are formed in the ridge.
  • the portion 13 of the neck has, in the manner well-known in the art, a closely controlled external diameter and forms a seal with a complementary screw-cap (not shown). During removal of the cap, the seal at 13 is broken whilst the screw-threads on the cap and bottle are still well engaged, and any pressure in the bottle is then relieved by flow of gas past the sealing surfaces and thence through the notches 12 and round the profile of the complementary thread-constituting ridge of the cap.
  • the cap may be made from metal sheet and have a screw-thread rolled on to it, in the well-known manner, in substantial conformity with the thread on the.bottle, except for the notches 12, the dimension of which lengthwise of the thread ridge should not be as to produce any corresponding interruption of the thread on the cap.
  • the thread-constituting ridge of the cap may also be formed with notches . Similar to the notches 12. Alternatively the cap thread may be notched and the bottle thread un- notched.
  • the bottle may additionally have a peripheral rib (not shown) for the formation of a rolled-on pilfer- proof band, but the rib is immaterial to the invention.
  • FIGs 5 and 6 show a cap 15 according to the invention.
  • the cap is moulded from a suitable plastics material and has an internal screw-thread ridge 16 which is formed with a series of transverse notches 17 spaced along its length. The radial depth of the notches is equal to the radial height of the ridge 16.
  • Such a cap can be used with a bottle having a conventional uninterrupted screw-thread ridge or with bottles such as are illustrated in Figures 1 to 4.
  • Annular ribs 18, 19 and an annular surface 20 are provided to form a pressure-tight seal with the uppermost portions of the bottle neck.
