Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of corking a bottle with a screw neck, using a corking cap of the type known as “inviolable”.
- Capsules of this type include a circular bottom and a long skirt in two parts separated by a circular weakening zone, formed, for example, by non-continuous incisions.
- the bottom of the cap and the region of the skirt which is immediately adjacent to the bottom are in contact with the sealing means of the bottle.
- the remaining area of the upper part of the skirt is crimped onto the thread of the neck.
- the lower part of the skirt which constitutes the guarantee ring is crimped on a reentrant of the neck which prevents its displacement upwards, so that, during unscrewing, the weakening zone breaks and the guarantee strip remains on the neck.
- this closure mode imposes tight tolerances, in particular with regard to the line of weakness and the crimping of the guarantee strip.
- Four types of incident are in fact to be avoided: a break in the weakening line by an involuntary shock during handling, a weakening line that is too strong making the opening of the bottle difficult for the operator, the guarantee strip making it possible to open the bottle and remove the cap without breaking the weakening zone, a widening of the part of the cap at the level of the thread which makes it turn freely without being able to be removed. Compliance with tolerances therefore requires precise and therefore expensive machines.
- the first of these is that obtaining the gadroons on the neck of a bottle is impossible with the most common usual technique for obtaining glass bottles, namely molding in a two-part mold. Indeed, to avoid breaking the gadroons on demolding, it is necessary to provide additional parts which are placed between the gadroons and which are removed independently from the half-molds, which considerably increases the cost price, bringing it closer to that of luxury bottle making.
- the object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks and to provide a capping process which includes the use of fluted bottles and which, however, does not affect the cost prices of the bottle manufacturer, or possibly that of the professional of the capping.
- the present invention therefore provides a method of capping a bottle with a screw neck obtained by molding between two half-shells separated by an axial plane and the neck of which comprises, below the thread, at least one flute projecting towards the outside and the outermost part of which is at a distance from the axis of the neck, process in which a tamper-proof cap is placed on the neck of the bottle, comprising a bottom and a skirt in two parts separated by a zone d weakening, this capsule carrying, on the part of the skirt which is separated from the bottom by the weakening zone, at least one gadroon situated at a height corresponding to that of the gadroon of the neck, and the most inside is at a distance from the axis less than that of the outermost part of the neck of the neck, and greater than the external radius of the rest of the neck, then the part of the skirt closest to the bottom is crimped, on the thread of the neck, dice which has the particularity that the godrons of said neck are placed only in the plane
- a capsule which has a skirt long enough to also allow the use of this capsule on a bottle with a screw neck of the conventional type, this capsule then being crimped onto a narrowed part of the neck situated below the part threaded, and advantageously, the neck has a narrowed portion below the gadroons and the capsule is further crimped in this narrowed part.
- the present invention also provides a bottle with a screw neck, the neck of which comprises, below the thread, at least one gadroon projecting outwards and the outermost part of which is at a distance from the axis of the neck. greater than the outside radius of the rest of the neck, and in which the gadroons are placed only in the plane separating the two half-shells, and / or in the part of the periphery of the neck where the tangent thereto forms the wall of the godron with a radius.
- the neck of this bottle below the gadroons, does not have a diameter greater than that of a circle enveloping the external limits of the gadroons, at least over a length corresponding to that of a long capsule of the current type, and , advantageously, the neck has a narrowed part below the gadroons and this narrowed part is located in the zone corresponding to the lower part of a long skirt.
- the neck 1 comprises an upper part 1, which carries a thread whose external radius of the threads 2 is designated by R1.
- a cylindrical part 3 of the same diameter, which carries gadroons 4, 5, projecting outwards.
- the gadroons 4, 5, of identical shape, are divided into several groups: if we consider the plane P of symmetry of the bottle, plane which is that which separates the two half-shells which are used for its molding, two groups of gadroons 4 are placed symmetrically in the zones of the periphery furthest from the plane P. On the other hand, two other gadroons 5 are situated astride the plane P itself.
- FIG 3 which is a greatly enlarged and deformed schematic view of part of Figure 2, we see that a gadroon 4 makes, with a radius R, an angle A. It is necessary that this angle A is less than the angle B made by the radius with the perpendicular to the plane P, this angle B being that of the tangent T at the neck with a plane P 'parallel to the plane P. This leads to limit the zone carrying gadroons to a part of the periphery corresponding to an angle at the top 2C at most equal to 2A.
- the choice of the value of the angle A depends, in particular, on the nature of the capsule.
- gadroons of more acute shape that is to say a with A smaller, gadroons 4 then being less numerous, whereas, if the material is more rigid , we may prefer more softened gadroons, but distributed over a larger part of the periphery.
- the radius R1 of the neck outside the gadroons is shown in FIG. 3, and the radius R2 of the cylinder tangent to the top of the gadroons 4.
- the gadroons 5 being astride the plane of separation of the half-shells, do not pose any problem with demolding; however, it is difficult to give them as precise a form as the others. On the other hand, they can be obtained more easily by a simple transformation of an existing mold. The decision to provide type 4 gadroons, type 5 gadroons, or both is therefore a matter of expediency.
- the neck is provided with 2 groups of 8 gadroons of type 4, plus 2 gadroons 5 in the plane P.
- Figure 4 shows a capsule that fits on the neck that has just been described.
- the bottom 7 of the capsule is internally provided with a disc-shaped seal 8, a knurling 9 being provided to facilitate gripping.
- the upper part 10 of the skirt has a radius R3 slightly greater than the radius R1, and it is separated from the lower part 11 by an immobilization zone 12 constituted by a circular groove interrupted by bridges 13.
- the lower part 11 of the skirt is, as a whole, of radius equal to the radius R2 of the circle tangent to the ends of the gadroons 4, 5 of the neck; it comprises, towards its upper part, a series of gadroons projecting inwards 14.
- the bottom of these gadroons is at a distance from the axis equal to R1.
- the gadroons are also distributed over the entire periphery of the capsule, at an interval corresponding to an angle equal to that which separates the gadroons of type 4 from the neck, that is to say, here, 12 °.
- This angle is not critical, but it is necessarily equal to 180 ° / n, n being an integer.
- the upper part of the gadroons 4, 5 of the neck and the lower part of the gadroons 14 of the capsule are rounded. They could also be tapered vertically.
- the installation of the capsule is done without difficulty by simple vertical displacement. It is followed by the crimping of the part 10 on the thread 3. Unlike the prior art, one does not normally proceed by crimping the lower part 11 of the skirt on the narrower part 6 of the neck, although this operation be possible if it is deemed necessary.
- the tearing of the weakening zone 12 takes place because the gadroons effectively brake the lower part 11 in its rotational movement, whereas, in the prior art , it is only the vertical movement of the capsule which is braked. It follows that the braking causing the break takes place from a rotation of only a few degrees, and even less, whereas, in the arrangements according to the prior art, it is frequent to have to turn a quarter of a turn and more, before braking is effective.
- the height of the threaded part can therefore be considerably reduced.
- the risk of premature contact of the contents of the bottle with the atmosphere is considerably reduced by a rotation which has caused displacement of the sealing parts without going so far as to completely remove the latter with rupture of the weakening zone. This point is important if we want to guarantee the bacteriological purity of the products transported.
- the shape of the bottle described above allows it to be used with a conventional cap, either by crimping it on the narrowed part 6, and in this case the use is identical to that of the prior art, or in the crimping by pushing around the gadroons, and in this case we find the advantages of the present invention, at the price, it is true, of a different tool.
- the capsule described above can also be used on a bottle of the conventional type, and in the known manner, the crimping taking place below the region of the gadroons 14, or even at the level that the latter , which are then overwritten.
