Definitions

  • the invention relates to a slip lid for closing a container with a U-shaped edge, the lid having a U-shaped cross-section, downwardly open edge portion with which it engages over the edge of the container to be closed, the outer leg of the U-shaped edge section has a plurality of inwardly pointing elevations which engage behind the edge of the container and lock the lid, which has a preferred location for lifting off the container.
  • a lid is known from DE-A 1 181 121, which is provided with three inward elevations. With this small number of elevations, however, they have to sit relatively firmly on the container if they are to provide the lid with sufficient hold. This makes them difficult to remove from the container.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a slip lid of the type mentioned, which on the one hand adheres well to the container and on the other hand can be easily and above all removed from the container without damaging the cover.
  • the outer leg of the U-shaped edge section is designed without an elevation over a region which is longer than the space between two of these elevations.
  • the elevations hold the lid securely on the edge of the container; in the recessed area, however, the lid can be easily lifted off the container, which also makes further lifting easier, so that the necessary pulling force for lifting the lid is relatively low. This in turn makes it possible to produce the cover from a relatively thin material.
  • An advantageous development of the invention lies in the fact that elevations pointing inwards are provided directly at the preferred location for lifting off the cover, while the regions adjacent on both sides are free of elevations.
  • the lid is thus sufficiently secured in the area in which opening is to begin; nevertheless, the opening is easy to do.
  • FIG. 1 in FIG. 1 denotes a container, the upper edge of which is U-shaped, with a web 2 which projects freely outwards.
  • a slip lid 3 is placed on the container 1 and is supported on its edge.
  • This lid 3 is provided with a downwardly open U-shaped edge section 4, the outer leg 5 engages over the web 2 and is provided with inwardly facing elevations 6 which engage behind the web 2 and lock the lid on the container.
  • the leg 5 is smooth on a sector of approximately 75 degrees, i.e. there are no elevations on the inside. This sector represents the preferred area of the lid 3, in which it can be easily lifted off the container.
  • this sector is enlarged to approximately 90 degrees.
  • a single elevation 6 is provided, opposite which an extension 7 is formed on the free side of the leg 5, on which the lid 3 can be grasped for opening.
