Abstract

Device for the repeated opening and closing of an aperture in a cover of a container which cover is provided at its bottom side with a layer of plastics material, wherein a pouring member 20 of plastics material is provided with a flange 22 which is tightly connected to the plastics material layer 12 on the bottom side of the cover 10 and, at a distance from the upper side of the cover 10, with a bulge 30 which is surrounded by a tightly mounted closing member 28,60.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum wiederholten Öffnen und Schliessen einer Öffnung in einem Deckel eines Behälters mit einem die Öffnung durchsetzenden Ausgiessteil aus Kunststoff, das einen an der Unterseite des Deckels dicht anliegenden Flansch aufweist und das in Abstand von der Oberseite des Deckels einen von einem dicht aufgesetzten Verschlussteil umschlossenen Wulst aufweist.The invention relates to a device for the repeated opening and closing of an opening in a lid of a container with a pouring part passing through the opening made of plastic, which has a tightly fitting flange on the underside of the lid and one at a distance from the top of the lid has attached bead enclosed bead.

Bei einer nach der US-A- Nr. 4076151 bekannten Vorrichtung dieser Art befindet sich in dem Ausgiessteil oberhalb des Flansches eine Ringnut, die den sich um die Öffnung erstreckenden Randbereich der Öffnung im Deckel aufnimmt. Obwohl hierdurch eine dichtende Verbindung zwischen . dem Deckel und dem Ausgiessteil erzielt werden kann, so ist dies doch nicht stets gewährleistet.In a device of this type known according to US-A-No. 4076151 there is an annular groove in the pouring part above the flange, which receives the edge region of the opening in the lid which extends around the opening. Although this creates a sealing connection between. the lid and the pouring part can be achieved, this is not always guaranteed.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es demgegenüber, mit einfachen Mitteln für eine sicher dichtende Verbindung von Ausgiessteil und Deckel zu sorgen.In contrast, the object of the invention is to provide simple means for a securely sealing connection of pouring part and lid.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist die Vorrichtung grundsätzlich dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Deckel auf seiner Unterseite mit einer Kunststoffschicht versehen und der Flansch mit dieser Kunststoffschicht dicht verbunden ist.To achieve this object, the device is basically characterized in that the cover is provided on its underside with a plastic layer and the flange is tightly connected to this plastic layer.

Insbesondere eignet sich die Vorrichtung für Behälter, die als mit Flüssigkeit gefüllte Einwegpackungen ausgebildet sind und ganz oder teilweise aus flexiblem Material bestehen. Solche Behälter haben häufig die Form einer schlanken Dose mit quadratischem Querschnitt und abgerundeten Ecken. Der Rumpf dieser Behälter besteht meist aus einem Verbund aus Kunststoff oder Karton, Aluminium und Kunststoff (von aussen nach innen), ihr Deckel und Boden aus einem Verbund von Aluminium und Kunststoff (von aussen nach innen). Der Kunststoff ist an den Stossstellen von Deckel, Boden und Rumpf miteinander heiss versiegelt, so dass der Behälter dicht wird.In particular, the device is suitable for containers which are designed as disposable packs filled with liquid and consist entirely or partially of flexible material. Such containers often have the shape of a slim box with a square cross-section and rounded corners. The hull of these containers usually consists of a composite of plastic or cardboard, aluminum and plastic (from the outside in), their lid and bottom of a composite of aluminum and plastic (from the outside in). The plastic is hot-sealed to each other at the joints between the lid, bottom and body, so that the container becomes tight.

Der Flansch kann mittels einer Adhäsionsverbindung an der Kunststoffschicht auf der Unterseite des Deckels angeklebt sein oder auch mittels eines Kunststoffschweissverfahrens angeschweisst sein. Der Flansch wird dabei bevorzugt erst durch den Schweissvorgang gebildet.The flange can be glued to the plastic layer on the underside of the cover by means of an adhesive connection or can also be welded on by means of a plastic welding process. The flange is preferably only formed by the welding process.

Eine besonders dichte Verbindung zwischen Ausgiessteil und Deckel erhält man dann, wenn das Ausgiessteil oberhalb des Flanches eine nach unten offene Nut aufweist, in die das Deckelmaterial mit einer dem Flansch entsprechend geformten, nach oben gerichteten Auswölbung eingreift. Die nach oben gerichtete Auswölbung kann durch den beim Schweissvorgang ausgeübten Druck gebildet sein.A particularly tight connection between the pouring part and the lid is obtained when the pouring part has a downwardly open groove above the flange, into which the lid material engages with an upward bulge shaped in accordance with the flange. The upward bulge can be formed by the pressure exerted during the welding process.

Eine bevorzugte Möglichkeit, eine dichte Verbindung zwischen dem Verschlussteil und dem Abreissteil zu erhalten, ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Verschlussteil durch einen Verschlussstopfen und einen mit dem Verschlussstopfen durch einen Umfangssteg verbundenen, den Wulst des Ausgiessrings dicht umschliessenden Abreissteil gebildet ist.A preferred way of obtaining a tight connection between the closure part and the tear-off part is characterized in that the closure part is formed by a closure plug and a tear-off part which is connected to the closure plug by a circumferential web and tightly surrounds the bead of the pouring ring.

Eine andere bevorzugte Möglichkeit ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Verschlussteil durch eine den Wulst des Ausgiessteils umschliessende Kappe und eine zwischen dem Ausgiessteil und der Kappe angeordnete, mit dem Ausgiessteil dicht verbundene und die Ausgiessöffnung des Ausgiessteils überdeckende Abdeckfolie gebildet ist.Another preferred possibility is characterized in that the closure part is formed by a cap which surrounds the bead of the pouring part and a cover film which is arranged between the pouring part and the cap, is tightly connected to the pouring part and covers the pouring opening of the pouring part.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden an Ausführungsbeispielen unter Hinweis auf die beigefügten Zeichnungen beschrieben.

  • Fig. 1 zeigt einen ersten Verschluss im Vertikalschnitt.
  • Fig. 2 zeigt den Verschluss nach Fig. 1 in Aufsicht.
  • Fig. 3 zeigt einen zweiten Verschluss im Vertikalschnitt.
The invention is described below using exemplary embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
  • Fig. 1 shows a first closure in vertical section.
  • Fig. 2 shows the closure of Fig. 1 in supervision.
  • Fig. 3 shows a second closure in vertical section.

Die Fig. 1 und 2 zeigen den oberen Eckbereich eines Behälters 2. Der Rumpf des Behälters 2 besteht aus einem Laminat 4 von Aluminium (innen) und Karton (aussen), auf dessen innerer und äusserer Oberfläche sich eine Schicht 6 aus heisssiegelfähigem Kunststoff befindet. Der Deckel 10 des Behälters 2 besteht aus Aluminium, das innenseitig mit einer heissiegelfähigen Kunststoffschicht 12 beschichtet ist. Bewährt haben sich Kunststoffschichten aus Polyäthylen. Der Deckel 10 ist in den Rumpf 4 eingesenkt und mit seinem Rand 14 über die Oberkante 16 des Rumpfs 4 gebördelt. Die Kunststoffschichten 6, 12 sind durch Erhitzung miteinanderverschweisst. In den Deckel 10 ist ein Loch 18 gestanzt, in das ein Ausgiessteil 20 eingesetzt ist. Das Ausgiessteil 20 besteht aus Kunststoff und weist einen mit der Kunststoffschicht 12 auf der Unterseite des Deckels 1 0 durch Schweissen dicht verbundenen Flansch 22 auf. Oberhalb des Flansches 22 ist das Ausgiessteil 20 mit einer nach unten offenen Nut 24 versehen, in die das Material des Deckels 10 mit einer dem Flansch entsprechend geformten, nach oben gerichteten Auswölbung 26 eingreift. Der in Fig. 1 sichtbare Hohlraum oberhalb der Auswölbung 26 kann ganz mit Kunststoff gefüllt sein. Dies geschieht praktisch von allein, wenn der Ausgiessteil 20 am Deckel 10 unter Anwendung geringen Drucks auf den gegebenenfalls erst beim Schweissen entstehenden Flansch 22 angeschweisst wird.1 and 2 show the upper corner region of a container 2. The body of the container 2 consists of a laminate 4 of aluminum (inside) and cardboard (outside), on the inner and outer surface of which there is a layer 6 of heat-sealable plastic. The lid 10 of the container 2 consists of aluminum, which is coated on the inside with a heat-sealable plastic layer 12. Plastic layers made of polyethylene have proven their worth. The lid 10 is recessed into the fuselage 4 and its edge 14 is flanged over the upper edge 16 of the fuselage 4. The plastic layers 6, 12 are welded together by heating. A hole 18 is punched into the cover 10, into which a pouring part 20 is inserted. The pouring part 20 is made of plastic and has a flange 22 which is tightly connected to the plastic layer 12 on the underside of the cover 10 by welding. Above the flange 22, the pouring part 20 is provided with a groove 24 which is open at the bottom and into which the material of the cover 10 engages with an upward bulge 26 which is shaped in accordance with the flange. The cavity visible in FIG. 1 above the bulge 26 can be completely filled with plastic. This happens practically on its own when the pouring part 20 is welded onto the cover 10 using low pressure on the flange 22 which may only be formed during welding.

Im Abstand von der Oberseite des Deckels 10 weist das Ausgiessteil einen von einem dicht aufgesetzten Verschlussteil 28 umschlossenen Wulst 30 auf.At a distance from the top of the cover 10, the pouring part has a bead 30 enclosed by a sealing part 28 which is placed on tightly.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 1 und 2 ist das Verschlussteil 28 durch einen Verschlussstopfen 32 gebildet, mit dem über einen Umfangssteg 34 ein den Wulst des Ausgiessteils umschliessendes Abreissteil 36 verunden ist. Das Abreissteil 36 weist eine Grifflasche 38 und der Verschlussstopfen 32 eine Grifflasche 40 auf.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2, the closure part 28 is formed by a closure plug 32, to which a tear-off part 36 enclosing the bead of the pouring part is connected via a circumferential web 34. The tear-off part 36 has a grip tab 38 and the sealing plug 32 has a grip tab 40.

Zur Öffnung des Verschlusses greift man die Grifflasche 38 an und reisst durch Auftrennen des Umfangsstegs 34 das Abreissteil 36 von dem Verschlussstopfen ab. Dann kann der Verschlussstopfen 32 aus dem Ausgiessteil 20 herausgezogen und bei Bedarf wieder eingestöpseit werden. Hierbei legt sich eine doppelkonische Umfangsfläche 42 am Verschlussstopfen 32 an die zylindrische Innenfläche 44 des Ausgiessteils 20 dichtend an. Eine zusätzliche Dichtung wird noch dadurch erreicht, dass sich ein Umfangsflansch 46 mit seiner Unterseite auf die obere Begrenzungsfläche 48 desAusgiessteils 20 legt. Eine Nut 50 in der Unterseite des Flansches 22 erleichtert in Zusammenwirken mit Ausnehmungen 52 in der Oberseite des Umfangsflansches 46 das Lösen des Verschlussstopfens 32 aus dem Ausgiessteil 20 mit der Hand. Radialrippen 54 trennen die Ausnehmungen 52 voneinander.To open the closure, one grips the grip tab 38 and tears off the tear-off part 36 from the closure plug by opening the circumferential web 34. Then the plug 32 can be pulled out of the pouring part 20 and be plugged in again if necessary. Here, a double-conical circumferential surface 42 lies sealingly against the plug 32 on the cylindrical inner surface 44 of the pouring part 20. An additional seal is achieved in that a circumferential flange 46 lies with its underside on the upper boundary surface 48 of the pouring part 20. A groove 50 in the underside of the flange 22, in cooperation with recesses 52 in the upper side of the circumferential flange 46, makes it easier to release the closure plug 32 from the pouring part 20 by hand. Radial ribs 54 separate the recesses 52 from one another.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 3 sind der Behälter und das Ausgiessteil ebenso ausgebildet wie bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 1 und 2. Sie werden daher nicht erneut beschrieben.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3, the container and the pouring part are designed in the same way as in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2. They are therefore not described again.

Das Verschlussteil 60 ist durch eine den Wulst 30 des Ausgiessteils 20 umschliessende Kappe 62 gebildet, zwischen der und dem Ausgiessteil eine mit dem Ausgiessteil 20 dicht verbundene und die Ausgiessöffnung des Ausgiessteils 20 überdekkende Abdeckfolie 64 angeordnet ist. Die Abdeckfolie 64 weist eine angreifbare Lasche 66 auf. Die Kappe 62 ist mit einer Grifflasche 68 vesehen.The closure part 60 is formed by a cap 62 which surrounds the bead 30 of the pouring part 20, between which and the pouring part there is arranged a cover film 64 which is tightly connected to the pouring part 20 and covers the pouring opening of the pouring part 20. The cover film 64 has an attackable tab 66. The cap 62 is provided with a grip tab 68.

Zum Öffnen des Verschlusses hebt man die Kappe 62 durch Angreifen ihrer Grifflasche 68 ab und löst dann die Abdeckfolie 64 durch Angreifen an deren Lasche 66 vom Ausgiessteil 20 wenigstens teilweise ab. Die Abdeckfolie 64 kann dann fortgeworfen und das Ausgiessteil allein mit der Kappe 62 verschlossen werden.To open the closure, the cap 62 is lifted off by gripping its grip tab 68 and the cover film 64 is then at least partially detached from the pouring part 20 by gripping its tab 66. The cover film 64 can then be thrown away and the pouring part can be closed only with the cap 62.
