Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tamper-evident device for a container lid according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Tamper-evident devices are intended to indicate to the consumer the integrity of the packaging and to make it clear when it is opened for the first time.
  • Such tamper-evident devices are used, for example, on container lids for the closure of containers for storage, in particular for spices and other scatterable products.
  • a known container lid with tamper-evident device has a closure cap with a dispenser opening that is firmly connected to the container and has a top opening.
  • This dispenser opening is closed in the original state of the container lid by a fitted insert, such as a push-through kidney.
  • a fitted insert such as a push-through kidney.
  • the push-through kidney is pressed in and falls into the interior of the container, thereby opening the dispenser.
  • a turntable is provided on the cap, which covers the dispenser opening and in turn has openings which can be brought into alignment with the dispenser opening by rotating the disk.
  • a disadvantage of this tamper-evident device known from the prior art is that the push-through kidney falls into the filled product when pressed in and can be shaken out again, for example, in a spice shaker and then gets into the food.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of providing a tamper-evident device for a container lid which is simple to manufacture and handle, clearly identifies unauthorized opening of the container and in which no foreign bodies get into the filled product.
  • the object is achieved by a tamper-evident device for a container lid according to claim 1.
  • the integrity of the container lid can be clearly recognized.
  • the tamper-evident device is broken, but no lid parts or other foreign objects get inside the container.
  • the tamper-evident device also represents an anti-twist device against unintentional opening of the container.
  • the container lid preferably consists of two plastic parts which can be connected by plugging and which, in their original state, assume a defined position relative to one another. It is insoluble, e.g. plug-like, connected to the container.
  • Fig. 1 shows a container lid 10 according to the prior art, which is broken down into its components cap 11 and turntable 12.
  • a circular depression 13 with a central hole 14 is provided on the surface of the closure cap 11.
  • 15 denotes a dispenser opening
  • 15a denotes a push-through kidney.
  • the turntable 12 in turn has differently designed opening arrangements 16a, 16b, 16c.
  • the turntable 12 can be fastened in the center hole 14 of the closure cap 11.
  • the turntable 12 is completely sunk in the recess 13.
  • the turntable covers the dispenser opening 15 and can be rotated so that either one of the openings 16a, 16b, 16c comes to lie above the dispenser opening 15, or the dispenser opening 15 is closed.
  • the cap 12 is non-detachably connected to the - not shown - container.
  • the push-through kidney 15a fitted into the dispenser opening 15 serves as a tamper-evident device. It is connected along its circumference with a skin to the inner edge of the opening 15 and can be pressed into the interior of the container when the container is first used.
  • corresponding reference numerals designate features which correspond to the corresponding features of the container lid from FIG. 1.
  • the container lid 10 is shown with the turntable 12 attached to the closure cap 11.
  • the dispenser opening 15 and the center hole 14 under the turntable 12 are shown in dashed lines.
  • the tamper-evident device is a mandrel 17 projecting outward from the circumference of the turntable 12 with a notch 17a which narrows in cross section and which is connected with its free end to the closure cap 11 in a form-fitting manner.
  • a recess 18 is provided in the side wall of the recess 13, in which the turntable 12 is countersunk, into which the mandrel 17 projects.
  • the turntable 12 Before the first use of the container, the turntable 12 is aligned on the cap 11 so that it completely closes the dispenser opening 15.
  • the mandrel 17 also serves as an anti-twist device to prevent the container from being opened unintentionally.
  • the mandrel 17 breaks in the region of the notch 17a.
  • the exemplary embodiment is intended to explain and better understand the invention, but not to restrict it to the embodiment described.
  • the predetermined breaking web in particular can undergo modifications.
