Definitions

  • the invention relates to a screw cap arrangement with tamper-evident device for containers, in particular bottles.
  • the object was therefore to find a closure arrangement which avoids the disadvantages mentioned and in particular offers improved protection against unauthorized opening and against unwanted damage during processing and transport, which can nevertheless be opened without great effort and which can also be used on automatically operating sealing machines Unit can be processed.
  • this screw closure arrangement is designed in such a way that the tear-off segments are attached via predetermined breaking points to a carrier ring which is connected in a bayonet-like manner to the screw cap.
  • the screw closure arrangement is characterized in that the tear-off segments are connected directly to the screw cap via predetermined breaking points.
  • the elements which bring about tamper-evident securing can either be firmly connected to the screw cap, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, or, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, can form a separate part.
  • the screw cap with the tamper-evident device can be processed as a unit, so that processing on automatic filling and closing systems is possible.
  • retaining brackets 7 are provided on the bead 6 of the screw cap 5, into which the retaining cams 15 of the tamper-evident ring 9 can snap in the manner of a bayonet lock.
  • the tamper-evident ring 9 is inserted into the screw cap 5 in such a way that the retaining cams 15 lie between the retaining brackets 7, whereupon the snap cams 15 are snapped into the retaining bracket 7 against the resistance of the flexible retaining pins 8. The tamper-evident ring 9 is thus secured against falling out of the screw cap.
  • the tamper-evident ring 9 lies within the screw cap 5, and in particular the sensitive tear-off segments 11 are protected by the beaded edge 6 against any stresses during transport or handling of the screw cap with a tamper-evident ring.
  • the connections 12 can therefore be designed so weak that the subsequent opening of the closure, wherein the Abr responsiblesegmente be torn off, no big Kraftentfaltun g is required.
  • the spring tabs 13 slide over the sawtooth-like cams 3 of the container neck 1. In this way, the container can be closed manually or automatically without destroying the originality assurance system.
  • the tear-off segments 11 are covered by the paragraph 4 provided on the container neck 1, so that tampering with the tear-off segments 11 or the spring tabs 13, by means of which many known closures can also be opened without destroying the tamper evident, can be reliably prevented.
  • the spring tabs 13 are now in engagement with the sawtooth-like cams 3. If the screw cap 5 is therefore rotated in the opening direction, the tamper-evident ring 9 cannot take part in this movement.
  • the closure according to the drawings 3 and 4 functions in the same way, in which the tear-off segments 11 are injection-molded directly onto the bead edge E of the screw cap 16 with the aid of the connections 12.
  • the tear-off segments 11 lie completely within the screw cap 16 and are thus protected against damage during transport and processing.
  • the destruction of the tamper-evident device when the screw cap is turned in the opening direction is optically indicated by the tear-off segments 11 being torn off by the tear-off segments themselves.
  • observation windows 17 are provided in the screw cap 16, through which one can immediately see whether the tear-off segments 11 are still properly connected to the screw cap 16 or not.
  • the screw caps with tamper-evident protection are usually made by injection molding from a thermoplastic material such as Polyethylene or, preferably, polypropylene.
  • a thermoplastic material such as Polyethylene or, preferably, polypropylene.
  • the dimensions are matched to the glass, metal or plastic containers to be closed.
  • the two parts 5 and 9 are each manufactured for themselves and then assembled into a unit to be processed together.
  • the tear-off segments 11 are in principle also closed, i.e. could be designed as a tear-off ring, which form is also intended to be encompassed by the invention, since the multi-part form, divided into 3-4 segments, is preferred.
  • the support segments 14 have not yet been mentioned, since these parts do not contribute to the function of tamper-evident protection, but only serve to stiffen the ring 9.
  • a closure is thus available which not only very reliably indicates attempts to open the containers closed with it, but which can also be processed as a complete unit on automated closing systems, and which in particular offers excellent protection against unwanted damage to the Offers tamper evidence as well as against undetected manipulations of tamper evidence.
  • the new closure can be used in a manner known per se wherever tamper-evident securing for screw closure arrangements is desired.
