Abstract

In the lid (4) of a vessel with a pouring spout (2) a flap (7) is pivotably mounted and covers the pouring spout (2) when it is at rest. The flap (7) extends with a short lever arm (9) into a guide channel (6) of the lid (4) in which a weight in the form of a ring is arranged. When the vessel is tipped, the weight moves against this lever arm (9) and opens the flap (7) automatically. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kanne mit einer Ausgußtülle, welche in ihrem Deckel eine zum Ausgießen um eine Schwenkachse wegschwenkbare, im geschlossenen Zustand auf der Ausgußtülle aufliegende Klappe aufweist, welche auf der der Ausgußtülle abgewandten Seite der Schwenkachse einen in einem quer zur Schwenkachse verlaufenden Führungskanal ragenden Hebelarm hat, gegen den zum selbsttätigen Öffnen der Klappe ein in dem Führungskanal angeordneter Rollkörper durch die Schwerkraft rollt, wenn die Kanne zum Ausgießen in die hierzu erforderliche Schräglage gebracht wird. Eine solche Kanne ist Gegenstand der US-A-1 356 754.The invention relates to a jug with a pouring spout, which in its lid has a flap which can be pivoted away for pouring about a pivot axis and which in the closed state rests on the pouring spout, which on the side of the pivot axis remote from the pouring spout has a lever arm projecting in a guide channel running transversely to the pivot axis has against which a roller body arranged in the guide channel rolls by gravity for automatic opening of the flap when the can is poured into the inclined position required for this purpose. Such a can is the subject of US-A-1 356 754.

Das Verschließen der Ausgußtülle ist bei Milchkannen vorteilhaft, damit die Milch nicht eintrocknet und damit keine Verunreinigungen, beispielsweise Fliegen, in die Milch gelangen können. Auch bei Kannen mit Fruchtsäften oder dergleichen ist ein Verschließen der Ausgußtülle insbesondere dann sinnvoll, wenn die Kanne im Freien benutzt wird. Bei einer Kaffekanne ist das Verschließen der Ausgußtülle vor allem dann sinnvoll, wenn sie als Thermoskanne ausgebildet ist, damit über die offene Ausgußtülle kein unerwünscht großer Wärmeverlust eintritt.Closing the pouring spout is advantageous in milk churns so that the milk does not dry out and so that no contaminants, for example flies, can get into the milk. Even with cans with fruit juices or the like, closing the pouring spout is particularly useful when the jug is used outdoors. In the case of a coffee pot, closing the pouring spout is particularly useful if it is designed as a thermos flask, so that no undesirable large heat loss occurs via the open pouring spout.

Bei der bekannten Kanne verläuft der Führungskanal horizontal. Als Rollkörper ist in ihm eine Kugel angeordnet, welche aufgrund eines gekrümmten Verlaufs des in den Führungskanal ragenden Hebelarmes der Klappe beim Abstellen der Kanne von dem Hebelarm herunter bis vor ihn läuft.In the known jug, the guide channel runs horizontally. A ball is arranged in it as a rolling body, which, due to a curved course of the lever arm of the flap projecting into the guide channel, runs from the lever arm down to the front of the lever arm when it is parked.

Klappen zum Verschließen der Ausgußtülle können oftmals nur mit einem relativ großen Kraftaufwand geöffnet werden. Grundsätzlich muß im ersten Moment des Öffnens zunächst die Haftreibung der Klappe überwunden werden. Oftmals neigen solche Klappen auch dazu, auf der Ausgußtülle zu haften, weil die aus der Kanne auszugießende Flüssigkeit klebende Wirkung hat, was beispielsweise bei Fruchtsäften oder Milch der Fall ist. Um dann die zum öffnen erforderliche Kraft ausüben zu können, muß der Rollkörper relativ groß sein.Flaps for closing the pouring spout can often only be opened with a relatively large amount of force. Basically, the static friction of the flap must first be overcome in the first moment of opening. Often such flaps also tend to stick to the pouring spout because the liquid to be poured out of the jug has an adhesive effect, which is the case, for example, with fruit juices or milk. In order to then be able to exert the force required for opening, the rolling body must be relatively large.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Kanne der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, daß mit einem relativ leichten Rollkörper die Klappe zuverlässig geöffnet werden kann.The invention has for its object to design a jug of the type mentioned so that the flap can be opened reliably with a relatively light rolling body.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Führungskanal auf seiner ganzen Länge zu der Seite Gefälle hat, die dem in ihn ragenden Hebelarm der Klappe abgewandt ist.This object is achieved in that the guide channel over its entire length to the side that faces away from the lever arm of the flap protruding into it.

Durch diese Gestaltung einer Kanne bewegt sich beim Ausgießen von Flüssigkeit zunächst der Rollkörper in Richtung der Schwenkachse der Klappe und trifft dann mit Schwung gegen den in den Führungskanal ragenden Hebelarm der Klappe. Hierdurch wird die Klappe ruckartig und mit einem gut hörbaren Klack-Geräusch selbst dann zuverlässig geöffnet, wenn sie aufgrund einer Klebewirkung der in der Kanne enthaltenen Flüssigkeit oder größer Haftreibung ihrer Schwenkachse relativ schwergängig ist. Durch die kinetische Energie des Rollkörpers wird zudem erreicht, daß auch mit einem relativ leichten Rollkörper eine schwergängige Klappe geöffnet werden kann. Durch das Gefälle des Führungskanals trifft der Rollkörper nach dem Abstellen der Kanne ebenfalls gut hörbar mit Schwung gegen das der Klappe abgewandte Ende des Führungskanals, so daß das Erreichen der Ruheposition des Rollkörpers ebenfalls akustisch wahrnehmbar ist.With this design of a can, when the liquid is poured out, the rolling body first moves in the direction of the pivot axis of the flap and then hits the lever arm of the flap projecting into the guide channel. As a result, the flap is opened jerkily and with a clearly audible clacking sound even if it is relatively stiff due to an adhesive effect of the liquid contained in the jug or greater static friction of its pivot axis. The kinetic energy of the rolling element also ensures that a stiff flap can be opened even with a relatively light rolling element. Due to the gradient of the guide channel, the rolling body also hits audibly with momentum against the end of the guide channel facing away from the flap after the can has been switched off, so that the rest position of the Roll body is also acoustically perceptible.

Als Rollkörper könnte man wie beim Stand der Technik eine Stahlkugel in einem geschlossenen Führungskanal vorsehen. Vom Aussehen her ist die Kanne besonders vorteilhaft ausgebildet, wenn der Rollkörper ein Ring ist, in welchem von einer Seite des Führungskanals ein kurzer Stift ragt. Der kurze Stift ermöglicht ein Einsetzen des Ringes unter Verkanten desselben von oben her in den Führungskanal, verhindert jedoch, daß bei normalem Gebrauch der Kanne der Ring von selbst aus dem Führungskanal herausfallen kann.As in the prior art, a steel ball could be provided as a rolling element in a closed guide channel. The can is particularly advantageous in appearance if the rolling body is a ring in which a short pin protrudes from one side of the guide channel. The short pin allows the ring to be inserted from above into the guide channel while tilting it, but prevents the ring from falling out of the guide channel by itself during normal use of the can.

Die Klappe kann auf einfache Weise im Deckel der Kanne gelagert werden, wenn die Schwenkachse der Klappe durch zwei seitliche Stifte der Klappe gebildet ist, welche in jeweils eine Ausnehmung einer nach oben weisenden Wange des Deckels der Kanne greift.The flap can be stored in a simple manner in the lid of the jug if the pivot axis of the flap is formed by two lateral pins of the flap, each of which engages in a recess in an upwardly facing cheek of the lid of the jug.

Vorteilhaft ist es auch, wenn jede Ausnehmung als schräg von oben in die der Klappe zugewandte Seitenfläche der jeweiligen Wange hinein führende Nut ausgebildet ist. Diese Ausgestaltung ermöglicht es, die Klappe ohne Werkzeug vom Deckel zu entfernen, indem man sie zur Deckelmitte hin schiebt und dabei gleichzeitig eine Bewegung aus der Deckelebene heraus nach oben zuläßt. Durch diese leichte Demontierbarkeit kann die Klappe und natürlich auch der gesamte Deckel besonders leicht gereinigt werden.It is also advantageous if each recess is designed as a groove leading obliquely from above into the side surface of the respective cheek facing the flap. This configuration makes it possible to remove the flap from the lid without tools by pushing it towards the middle of the lid and at the same time allowing movement upward from the lid level. This easy disassembly makes it particularly easy to clean the flap and of course the entire lid.

Die Erfindung läßt zahlreiche Ausführungsformen zu. Zur weiteren Verdeutlichung ihres Grundprinzips ist eine davon in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird nachfolgend beschrieben. Diese zeigt in

  • Fig. 2 eine Draufsicht auf die Kanne,
  • Fig. 3 eine Vorderansicht der Kanne,
  • Fig. 4 eine Ansicht einer eine Klappe der Kanne lagernden Wange des Deckels der Kanne,
  • Fig. 5 eine Ansicht von der Seite auf die Wange.
The invention allows numerous embodiments. To further clarify its basic principle, one of these is shown in the drawing and is described below. This shows in
  • 1 is a vertical section through a jug designed according to the invention,
  • 2 is a plan view of the jug,
  • 3 is a front view of the jug,
  • 4 is a view of a flap of the jug supporting cheek of the lid of the jug,
  • Fig. 5 is a side view of the cheek.

Die in Figur 1 als Ganzes gezeigte Kanne besteht aus einem Behälter 1, welcher an seiner Vorderseite eine Ausgußtülle 2 und an seiner hierzu gegenüberliegenden Seite einen Griff 3 hat. Nach oben hin ist der Behälter 1 von einem Deckel 4 abgedeckt. Der Deckel 4 hat einen Führungskanal 5 mit einer Bodenfläche 6, die in Richtung des Griffes 3 geringfügig geneigt verläuft.The jug shown as a whole in FIG. 1 consists of a container 1 which has a pouring spout 2 on its front and a handle 3 on its opposite side. At the top, the container 1 is covered by a lid 4. The cover 4 has a guide channel 5 with a bottom surface 6 which extends slightly inclined in the direction of the handle 3.

Die Ausgußtülle 2 ist nach oben hin von einer Klappe 7 abgedeckt, welche um eine am Deckel 4 befestigte Schwenkachse 8 kippbar ist und einen in den Führungskanal 5 ragenden Hebelarm 9 hat. Innerhalb des Führungskanals 5 ist weiterhin ein Rollkörper 10 angeordnet, bei dem es sich um einen auf der Bodenfläche 6 frei abrollbaren Ring handelt. Ein kurzer Stift 11 ragt von der Seite her geringfügig in den als Ring ausgebildeten Rollkörper 10 und verhindert dadurch, daß dieser von selbst nach oben hin aus dem Führungskanal 5 gelangen kann.The pouring spout 2 is covered at the top by a flap 7 which can be tilted about a pivot axis 8 fastened to the cover 4 and has a lever arm 9 projecting into the guide channel 5. A rolling element 10, which is a ring that can be rolled freely on the bottom surface 6, is also arranged within the guide channel 5. A short pin 11 protrudes slightly from the side into the roller body 10, which is designed as a ring, and thereby prevents it from coming up out of the guide channel 5 by itself.

Die Figur 2 zeigt, daß die Klappe 7 zwei seitliche Stifte 12, 13 hat, die ihre Schwenkachse 8 bilden und in nach oben gerichtete Wangen 14, 15 des Deckels 4 eingreifen. Weiterhin ist in der Draufsicht gemäß Figur 2 der Rollkörper 10 dargestellt. Ebenfalls zu sehen ist der Stift 11, welcher geringfügig in den den Rollkörper 10 bildenden Ring eingreift.FIG. 2 shows that the flap 7 has two lateral pins 12, 13, which form its pivot axis 8 and engage in upwardly directed cheeks 14, 15 of the cover 4. Furthermore, the rolling body 10 is shown in the top view according to FIG. Also visible is the pin 11, which is slightly in the rolling body 10 engaging ring engages.

In Figur 3 sieht man die Ausgußtülle 2 von vorn. Weiterhin sind die in den Wangen 14, 15 gelagerte Klappe 7 und der Rollkörper 10 dargestellt.In Figure 3 you can see the pouring spout 2 from the front. Furthermore, the flap 7 and the rolling element 10 mounted in the cheeks 14, 15 are shown.

Die Figuren 4 und 5 zeigen am Beispiel der Wange 14, daß in der der Klappe 7 zugewandten Seitenfläche eine Ausnehmung 16 vorgesehen ist. Diese ist als eine zur Klappe 7 hin offene Nut ausgebildet und verläuft von hinten schräg nach vorn unten bis zur Schwenkachse 8. Diese Ausgestaltung ermöglicht es, die Klappe 7 von hinten her mit ihren Stiften 12, 13 einfach in die Ausnehmungen 16 der Wangen 14, 15 einzuschieben.Figures 4 and 5 show the example of the cheek 14 that a recess 16 is provided in the side surface facing the flap 7. This is designed as a groove which is open towards the flap 7 and extends obliquely from the rear downward to the pivot axis 8. This configuration enables the flap 7 with its pins 12, 13 to be simply inserted into the recesses 16 of the cheeks 14 from behind. 15 to insert.
