Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tamper-evident interlocking cover for a container of polygonal section. More particularly, it relates to such a cover consisting of a single piece, in particular of plastic, and comprising a part of a hollowed out frame in the form of a concave bowl, suitable for engaging and being sealed on the edges of the opening of a container, as well as a lid part proper in the form of a convex bowl, connected by a double hinge connection zone to the frame part and adapted to be folded down on the latter by forcing itself into the recess of the latter, thereby closing, in a tamper-proof manner, the opening of the container through which its contents can be withdrawn.
  • lids for containers are known in the packaging technique, most of these lids being made up of two parts connected by a removable hinge device or separated from one another, one of these parts constituting a frame fixed on the opening of the container and the other, the cover adapted to fit into this frame.
  • these two-piece cover assemblies do not have the necessary guarantees making it possible to ensure the inviolability of the contents of the containers which carry them, in the sense that each cover is held in the closed position simply as a result of its more or less fitting together. less tight inside the frame.
  • the solution to this problem is provided by the present invention, which provides a cover whose frame part fixed on the opening of the container is in the form of a convex bowl and the cover itself, studied in a shape adapted to fit together with adjustment. clamped in this bowl which cannot deform due to its fixing in the opening of the container.
  • the frame is in the form of a concave bowl with a hollow bottom corresponding to the opening of the container, has a border portion in U inverted adapted to be overlapped on the edges of this opening and sealed thereon, as well as a connecting zone integral with the outer wing on one side of the frame and delimited by two parallel fold lines spaced apart one of the other of a width corresponding to a little less than the height of this outer wing, this connection zone being extended laterally on the side opposite to the frame by the cover which can be fitted into the interior of the latter's concavity , this cover being designed in the form of a convex bowl, the edge parts, including that which is integral with said connection zone, are slightly curved to bear on the top of the outline of the frame, when this cover is folded down in the closed position, fitted into the latter and kept locked in this closed position, by the engagement, in its border portions, of several lugs project
  • the curve of the concave bowl of the frame and that of the convex bowl of the lid proper are shaped so that the latter can be engaged by interlocking snug fit in the upper part of the concave bowl of the frame, that -this being provided at a greater depth than that of the bowl of the lid in order to provide, in the closed position, a certain space between the solid bottom of the latter and the hollowed-out bottom of the bowl of the frame, which has a wall shape with slight converging taper in its lower part corresponding to this space.
  • the hollowed-out bottom of the concave bowl of the frame is provided carrying a measuring spoon arranged diagonally at the recess and fixed by several attachment points to the edge of the latter, the solid bottom of the bowl of the lid proper being shaped to present a housing substantially conforming to the shape of this measuring spoon when this lid is folded down in the closed position and fitted into the frame.
  • the cover according to the invention is manufactured flat in one piece, in particular of molded or injected plastic, and comprises a part of frame B, adapted to be sealed on the opening d 'a container (not shown), a cover part C proper, and a connecting zone A forming a hinge between these parts B and C.
  • the frame part B is constituted by a concave bowl, the bottom 1 of which is hollowed out and the upper edges 2 of which are shaped like an inverted U so that they can be engaged on the edges of the opening of the container and sealed thereon.
  • the cover part C is also in the form of a bowl with a full bottom, but in a convex arrangement adapted to be able to be fitted into the frame part B when the cover is in the closed position.
  • the edges 3 of the bowl C are adapted and shaped to rest and press against the edges 2 of the bowl B, where they can be locked in the closed position of the cover by means of lugs 4 engaging in the corresponding holes 5 of a flange 3 carrying, near these holes, an external tab 6 for digital connection.
  • connection zone A between the frame B and the cover C is delimited by two tapered fold lines 7 and 8, parallel to each other and spaced from one another of a width less than the height of the outer wing 9 of the rim 2 for sealing the frame B on the opening of the container (not shown). Due to the presence of these two fold lines 7 and 8, the connection zone A can be considered as a double hinge, which allows the cover C to be at all times secured to the frame B and to be folded down and fitted in this frame in the closed position, with its bottom 10 located at a distance from the hollowed-out bottom 1 of this frame.
  • this cover As shown in Figures 4 and 5, according to a second embodiment, this cover according to the invention and comprising a frame part B1, a cover part C1 itself and a connection zone A forming a double hinge between these two parts, can be provided with a measuring spoon 11.
  • This spoon is arranged diagonally in the hollowed-out bottom 12 of the concave bowl of the frame B1, where it is fixed by several attachment points 13 which can be broken during use .
  • the solid bottom 14 of the bowl of the cover C1 is shaped to provide housings 15 and 16 corresponding respectively to the body of the spoon 11 and to its handle 17, the connection zone A remaining identical to that of the cover of the figure 1.
  • the spoon handle forms a cutting blade for the protective sheet of the contents of the container.
