Definitions

  • the invention relates to a screw closure for threaded containers according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Screw caps of the type mentioned here are used for containers, for example bottles, jars for liquid, pasteurs or pourable goods.
  • the containers are provided with a thread, which can also consist, for example, of short thread attachments.
  • Such threads are also referred to as twist-off threads.
  • the screw closures intended for such containers have a closure cap which is provided with a thread which engages with that of the container.
  • the containers can be provided with a continuous thread or with projections that form the thread. Especially with short thread approaches, it is not necessary that these have an incline.
  • Such threads which are known, for example, for closing jam and jam jars, are also referred to as twist-off threads.
  • the closure cap has projections which interact with the threaded approaches of the container.
  • the thread of the closure cap which meshes with the thread of the container must be produced by deforming the side walls of the closure cap.
  • the thread is often produced by a so-called rolling process.
  • a cap blank is placed on the filled container without a thread and the outer wall of the screw cap is pressed in with a suitable device such that a thread in the screw cap matching the thread of the container is created. Damage to the container can occur, in particular in the case of glass containers, parts of the thread attachment can splinter and get into the interior of the container. This can lead to impairment of the % consumer.
  • the thread of the screw closure should moreover be simple and inexpensive to produce, moreover the forces required to open the closure should be safely transmitted to the threaded ring.
  • This object is achieved in a screw closure of the type mentioned with the help of the features mentioned in claim 1. Because the screw closure is provided with a threaded ring which has at least one projection which engages in the thread of the container, it is no longer necessary to provide the screw closure itself, that is to say to provide its closure cap with a thread. Damage to the container is thereby excluded. It is impossible for the consumer to be endangered, for example by broken glass.
  • the projection serving as the thread thereof is arranged on a tab which merges into a spacer strip. This is arranged between the closure cap of the screw closure and the container to be closed in such a way that the screw closure is centered securely. This ensures reliable functioning of the projection of the threaded ring which acts as a thread.
  • a spacer strip is arranged in each case with respect to a projection. This can itself have a projection. With such a design of the screw closure, such high forces can be ensured that a safe opening and closing of the container is ensured by means of the screw closure.
  • a screw closure in which the threaded ring is designed as a guarantee ring is particularly preferred. This has at least one area that the first opening the container is permanently deformable or destructible. Such a guarantee ring ensures that the consumer can check the first opening of the container. In this way, the consumer can make sure that he has an undamaged container in his hands.
  • a screw cap that has the features mentioned in claim 10.
  • the upper and lower ring elements are preferably connected to one another by friction and / or positive locking, by welding or by gluing. This results in an optimal functional unit from the two ring elements.
  • a preferred embodiment of the screw closure is characterized in that a positive connection is provided between the ring elements, which causes a hooking between the ring elements when the two elements move relative to one another. This also results in an optimal functional relationship between the two elements.
  • a screw closure is preferred, in which on one ring element there is a ring wall provided with positive locking means on the inside and on the other ring element a second ring wall provided with positive locking means on the outside.
  • the inside diameter of the first ring wall is matched to the outside diameter of the second ring wall in such a way that their form-locking means interlock.
  • a further embodiment is characterized in that the ring walls of the ring elements are conical and are matched to one another in such a way that the two ring elements are automatically centered when they are mounted in the closure cover.
  • the form-locking means are particularly easy to manufacture if they have sawtooth-shaped projections. These can preferably be aligned in such a way that when the ring elements are rotated relative to one another, they snap into place, so that optimum transmission of force is ensured.
  • the ring elements are preferably provided on their outer side with an annular bead which is arranged in an annular groove in the closure cap.
  • a structure of this type can additionally ensure good power transmission between the elements. In such cases, in which only slight forces have to be transmitted, a positive fit between the ring elements can be dispensed with with such a screw closure. It is then sufficient to ensure only a frictional connection.
  • a screw closure in which the guarantee ring is provided on its inside with at least one tab which projects in the direction of the central axis of the guarantee ring and which, when the closure rotates during opening of the container, into a recess on the outer surface of the Engages container. So while the screw cap is rotated, a rotation of the guarantee ring is prevented by the hooking of the tab with the container. As a result, the guarantee is sheared off the threaded ring or the associated ring element, the lower ring element.
  • the screw wherein the plate intersecting an angle with the origin, through the Mit ⁇ of the guarantee ring center axis line extending ein ⁇ closes, wherein the angle ranges between 5 ° to 85 ⁇ , preferably from 20 ° to 70 °, in particular in the range from 35 ° to 55 ".
  • the angle ranges between 5 ° to 85 ⁇ , preferably from 20 ° to 70 °, in particular in the range from 35 ° to 55 ".
  • such an orientation of the tab ensures secure hooking with the recess on the outer surface of the container.
  • the screw closure is preferably designed such that the thickness of the tab is selected so that it acts as a spring element and presses elastically resiliently against the outer surface of the container to be closed.
  • Such a structure optimally compensates for differences in tolerance both of the outer container surface and of the diameter of the closure or guarantee. In any case, it is ensured that the tab rests on the outside of the container under pre-tension and thus engages with certainty in the associated recess.
  • a weakening line or recess is provided in the outer surface of the guarantee ring.
  • the tabs are arranged over a large area of the circumference of the guarantee ring. However, the area with the line of weakness is free of such tabs. This ensures that the guarantee in this weakened area is not pressed outwards by the pretensioned tabs, as a result of which an opening would incorrectly be indicated.
  • a screw closure is preferred which has the features mentioned in claim 31. It is particularly advantageous that the threaded ring engages with a locking device in the bottom region of the closure cap via the latching projection, so that when the cap is rotated it is ensured that the threaded ring is set in rotation.
  • the locking element is non-rotatably connected to the cap.
  • the locking element is designed as a ring running in the transition area between the bottom and side wall of the closure cap. The manufacture of such a locking element is particularly simple and therefore inexpensive.
  • the locking element is designed as part of the seal arranged in the bottom region of the closure cap. Since a seal is provided anyway on the bottom of the container, such a design of the locking element is particularly easy to manufacture.
  • an embodiment of the screw closure is preferred, in which the latching projection is designed as a circumferential jacket region which arises from the top of the threaded ring and which engages with the locking element with its upper edge.
  • a closure of this type is distinguished by the fact that a good frictional connection between the threaded ring and the closure cap is ensured, moreover the friction between the closure cap and the container is greatly reduced. In particular if the contents of the container contain sugar, sticking of the screw cap to the container thread is practically excluded.
  • the latching projection designed as a continuous ring jacket has at least individual areas provided with teeth, which engage with the locking element.
  • a guarantee ring is shown as a threaded ring, which has a ring part that can be opened when the container is opened for the first time. It shows:
