Definitions
- the invention relates to a threaded closure for a container, comprising a safety ring secured to a cover that can be fixed to the neck of the container, said cover comprising a bottom and a side skirt, the internal wall of which includes ramps forming a thread and intended to cooperate with corresponding closing ramps mounted on the external part of the container neck.
- the invention also relates to a snap-on closure for a container and to the safety ring used in the two above-mentioned closures.
- Patent WO 91/01925 relates to a wide-neck container closure comprising a cover with safety ring, said closure being mounted on the neck of said container.
- the principle of this closure and inviolability system is based on the fact that when the container is opened, the widening of the skirt of the closure cover deforms the safety ring, integral with said skirt, which thus breaks following breaking points. There is thus a simple and sure way to show, if a container has been opened.
- the disadvantage of this system is that it is intended for square jars, in which the breaking of the safety ring takes place due to the deformation of the skirt of the cover. If we consider a round jar, there has no unlocking bosses on the neck of the container to deform the skirt of the cover. A solution must therefore be found based on another principle.
- the object of the present invention is the development of a system making it possible to visually demonstrate whether a container with a screwable or snap-on lid has been opened.
- the invention relates to a threaded closure for a container according to the preamble of claim 1, in which the safety ring has a lower edge pressing against the lower edge of the cover skirt and comprising at least one locking tab and at least two latching tabs, the locking tab pressing in the closed position of the cover against a rim of the container neck located under the closing ramps and the latching tab being locked on a circular groove provided in the lower inner part of the skirt of the cover.
- the cover is preferably round cooperating with a round neck.
- the safety ring includes a collar secured to the edge and matching the shape of the lower outer wall of the skirt of the cover. This flange makes the ring more solid during handling.
- the safety ring is a single piece and can be manufactured by injection molding in a brittle material which is preferably based on polystyrene.
- the cover is made separately from the safety ring.
- Said ring has such a configuration that the rings can be stacked, which saves space. These rings can be delivered alone or already mounted on the cover. A recess must be provided inside the skirt to provide sufficient space for the thickness of the locking and latching tabs when the lid is screwed onto the container.
- the safety ring breaks and the fragments leave well towards the outside. This has the advantage that the ring, after first opening, is no longer on the container, which gives a conventional packaging.
- the container is preferably made of glass with different neck diameters.
- the cover is a conventional cover comprising for example four locking ramps, just as there are then provided on the rim of the jar the four corresponding ramps.
- This cover is preferably made of polyethylene or polypropylene.
- the inner part of the bottom of the cover has either a cardboard box, or a foam cardboard (expanded polyethylene) weldable by induction, or a sealing ring deposited in the pasty state and which polymerizes in the open air, or a barrier foam.
- the locking and latching tabs are integral with the lower edge of the safety ring, these tabs projecting diagonally towards the inside of the lid and towards the top of the container.
- the aforementioned tabs are tabs with recesses for reasons of elasticity, the locking tab being normally longer than the latching tab.
- the length of the locking tab depends on the distance from the bottom of the skirt of the lid to the rim of the container neck.
- the number of locking and latching tabs is decisive in ensuring good breakage of the safety ring. It is preferable to operate each time with three of these legs. It is understood that these tabs are normally distributed around the periphery of the ring in an alternative manner, that is to say a locking tab, a latching tab, a locking tab and so on. This arrangement is not, however, essential to properly have a breaking tension on the ring. If the tabs are distributed evenly, with three locking tabs, these make an angle between them of 120 ° in the plane, the same for the snap tabs.
- ring areas of weakness can be formed by notches which can be given either the shape of U, or the shape of V, the main being to create around the circumference of the ring zones of lesser thickness or less width with zones of preferential breaks.
- the safety ring comprises between each locking and latching tab at least one notch forming a weakening zone for said ring, the locking tab then being formed by a tongue.
- each locking tab is formed of two tabs, a weakening zone being provided between said tabs.
- the latching tabs each have a retaining notch which engages on the circular groove in the interior lower part of the skirt of the cover. This guarantees total locking of the safety ring on the cover.
- the invention also relates to a snap-on closure for a container comprising a safety ring secured to a cover that can be fixed to the neck of the container, said cover comprising a bottom and a side skirt, the inner wall of which comprises hooking means provided for cooperate with a rim on the inside of the container neck, in which the safety ring has a lower edge pressing against the lower edge of the skirt of the cover and comprising at least one locking tab and at least two tabs latching, the locking tab pressing in the closed position of the lid against the rim on the outside of the container neck and the latching lug being locked on a notch provided in the lower inner part of the skirt of the lid.
- there is no flange because the ring must not be deformed when positioning the lid on the container.
- the safety ring preferably has two locking tabs and two tabs latching.
- the cover is advantageously square in shape and the neck of the container is round.
- the invention finally relates to the safety ring used for the closure described above, comprising an edge comprising at least one locking tab and at least two snap tabs. All that has been described above for this ring remains valid, in particular it may include a collar secured to the edge.
- the safety ring (1) has a collar (2) and a lower edge (3).
- the locking tabs (4) and the latching tabs (5) are integral with the lower edge. These tabs each have recesses respectively (6) and (7) so as to give them good elasticity.
- the weakened areas (8) are arranged between the locking and latching tabs.
- the ring is made of polystyrene.
- Fig. 2 shows a partial section of the container lid.
- This cover (9) has a bottom (10) and a side skirt (11).
- the internal part of the bottom of the cover has an area (12) for putting a cardboard there (not shown). This would be held in place by the circular notch (13).
- the internal part of the side skirt has closing ramps (14) and a circular groove (15).
- FIGS. 3 and 4 clearly show the combination of the elements of FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the container to be closed (16) has a neck (17) on which the cover (9) secured to the safety ring (1) is screwed.
- the closing ramps (14) of the cover cooperate with corresponding closing ramps (18) of the neck of the container (16).
- the cardboard (19) in the lid presses against the upper edge of the container neck.
- the safety ring (1) is locked on the skirt of the cover by means of the latching tabs (5) comprising retaining tabs (20) which engage on the circular groove (15) of the skirt of the cover.
- the locking tabs (4) of the ring abut against a flange (21) of the neck of the container.
- notches (22) are provided: in the present case six notches giving these places zones of reduced thickness of the safety ring. The more you lift or unscrew the cover, the more tension increases to break the ring in these weakened areas. In this case, we made notches in the shape of a U. We thus have a system making it possible to say in a sure way if the container has been opened: indeed, if really the ring is broken, there will frequently be a fragment ring that will have disappeared and the consumer will instantly judge if the container has been opened.
- the safety ring (23) of FIG. 6 differs from that of the Fig. 1 only in the locking tabs (24) made in this case of two identical tabs (25) and in that the weakening zone (26) is located between these two tabs and no longer between the locking tabs and snap-in.
- the other elements have been given the same reference numbers.
- the safety ring will undergo the same tensions for the same reasons as above, but the ring will break according to the 3 weakening points (26).
- Fig. 7 differs from FIG. 6 simply in that the safety ring does not include a collar (22). But the breaking of said ring will be done as for the ring of FIG. 6 in (26).
- Fig. 8 shows a safety ring (30) for snap-on cover. It includes, as for the screwable covers, a lower edge (31) carrying locking tabs (32) made up of two identical tabs (33) and snap-on tabs (34). The weakening zone (35) is located between the two aforementioned tabs.
- the only difference with the previous figure is in the geometric shape of the safety ring: for the screwable cover, it is round and for the snap-on cover it is square.
- the advantage of the closure system according to the invention is that it makes it possible to keep the containers and the lids already existing. It is simply necessary to consider the manufacture of the safety ring which is then placed on the cover. The container itself being also filled and sealed, it only remains to cap said container of the closure system according to the invention.
- This device finds a particularly interesting application on containers containing soluble coffee, milk powder and other food products.
