Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a self-centering container closure particularly of the type adapted for utilisation with a container for a gaseous liquid.
  • Container closures moulded in one piece from a plastics material are well known in the art.
  • One such is disclosed in our earlier EP-A-0136088 which relates to a container closure moulded in one piece from a plastics material and comprising a top (or crown), a dependent skirt the radially inner surface of which is formed with screw thread, a surface which is flared in a direction away from the top being formed on the internal surface of the skirt where it joins the top, and an annular resilient flexible fin extending downwardly and outwardly from the underside of the top at a position spaced regularly inwardly in said flared surface and having a length such as to permit at least its portion adjoining its free edge to lie against said flared surface when the fin is deformed outwardly by the rim of the neck of a container to which the closure is to be applied.
  • closures of this type work satisfactorily but there remains the problem of centralising the cap on the container in a really reliable way and of preventing "cocking" which is occasioned during capping.
  • During capping it is difficult to ensure that the plane of the crown becomes perpendicular to the axis of the container neck prior to rotation. This is not always possible during high speed capping and accordingly a problem arises when the caps are screwed rapidly onto the container necks.
  • a certain tolerance in the screwthread portions can allow a degree of "cocking" to be corrected during capping, it is relatively easy to destroy the closures during the capping procedure due to this defect.
  • Container closures including downwardly depending internal bore seals are also known in the art. The purpose of these arrangements is to enable a cap to be rapidly screwed onto a container neck such that the rim of a container neck seals against the underside of the crown, whereas the internal bore of the container neck is in sealing contact with the bore seal annulus.
  • GB-A-2460720 provides a container closures moulded in one piece from a plastics material and comprising a crown, a dependant skirt the radially inner surface of which is formed with a screw thread, an annulus resilient fin extending downwardly from an articulation position on the underside of the crown at a position spaced radially inward of the skirt and having a length such as to permit at least a portion adjoining the free edge to lie in use against the rim whereby the fin is deformable by the rim of the container neck to which the closure is to be applied.
  • the present invention has as its object the alleviation of the above problems by providing closures of the foregoing general type provided with means for self-centering during capping and means for alleviating the problem of cocking.
  • the invention also provides means for reducing the incidence of doming.
  • the arrangement of the invention can also reduce the possibility of successful tampering because the closure is retained substantially coaxial on the container neck.
  • the invention is characterised in that the closure of the assembly comprises a continuous annulus depending downwardly form the under surface of the crown and disposed radially inwardly of the fin, the locator annulus extending downwardly by a distance greater than that of the fin and having an outer diameter just smaller than the inner diameter of the container neck with which it is to be used to enable self centering of the closure.
  • the distance may be up to 100% longer than the corresponding distance from the underside of the crown to the fin.
  • a flared surface may be formed on the internal surface of the skirt where it joins the crowns so as to be flared in a direction away from the crown, and wherein the fin extends outwardly and downwardly from the articulation position so as to contact the flared surface in use.
  • the fin may be bulbous at its remote end and may be provided with a neck contact surface inclined inwardly and upwardly towards the crown for contact in use with the outer rim of the container neck.
  • the central point of an articulation portion of the fin is located along a line parallel to the axis of the closure and within the outer one half of the inner and outer diameters of the container neck with which the closure is to be used.
  • the central articulation position is within the outer one third or even one quarter of the said diameters of the container neck.
  • the base of the bulbous fin may have a radial thickness greater than one quarter of the radial thickness of the bulbous portion of the bulbous fin.
  • the angle of the inclined plane of the bulbous fin is preferably between about 35° and 55° and most preferably about 45° relative to the axis of the container closure.
  • the remote end of the locator annulus may be chamfered or the radially outer remote end thereof may be inwardly and downwardly inclined so as to present an outwardly and upwardly inclined surface to the inner rim of the container neck.
  • the upper end of the inclined plane of the locator annulus terminates at or adjacent a notional plane perpendicular to the axis of the closure which is also generally coincident with the lower end of the inclined contact surface of the bulbous fin.
  • the two mutually opposed inclined planes respectively of the bulbous fin and the locator annulus operate sequentially with respect to opposed sides of a container rim.
  • the angle of the inclined plane of the locator annulus is preferably 25° to 35° relative to the axis of the container closure.
  • the positioning of the locator annulus radially inwardly of the fin has the effect of strengthening the crown against "doming".
  • a combination of the fin (preferably bulbous) and the locator annulus is particularly effective in resisting doming and its effects on the seal achievable by the fin outboard thereof.
  • the closures of this type are most preferably made by injection moulding.
  • the closure 10 is moulded in one piece from a resilient plastics material and has a top (crown) 11 and a dependent skirt 12 formed with an internal screw thread 13 and external knurling 14.
  • a corner region 15 at the upper end of the skirt is thickened and has a conically flared internal surface 16 extending at an angle of about 30° from the axis of the closure 10.
  • Spaced radially inwardly of the surface 16 is a resilient bulbous fin 18 which extends from an articulation point 26 on the under side of the top 11. The bulbous fin 18 thus depends downwardly from the articulation point 26.
  • the radially inner surface 27 extends generally parallel to the plane of the skirt 12 whereas the radially outer portion 28 of the bulbous fin is curved generally radially outwardly and downwardly to define at its remote end an outer sealing portion 19.
  • the outer sealing portion is conjoined to the inner radially inner surface 27 by means of an inclined plane 25 having an angle of about 45°.
  • Closures of this type may be produced, preferably by injection moulding, with or without a tamper evident band.
  • the skirt terminates in a plurality of frangible bridges 34 supporting a tamper evident band 35 for cooperation with a plain security band 36 on the outer neck portion of a container neck 20 in the usual way.
  • the container closure 10 is applied to a neck 20 of a container so that the rim 21 of the container neck moves upwardly as in Figure 1 to adopt the position shown in Figure 2.
  • the inclined plane 25 of the bulbous fin 18 comes into contact with the outer rim portion 22 of the container neck 20 while the closure 10 is being rotated during the capping operation.
  • This has the subsequent effect of assisting in a centering action such that the axis of the container closure and the container neck become coaxial with more certainty.
  • Further rotation of the container closure 10 relative to the container neck 20 causes the container neck to move upwardly relative to the container closure to adopt the position shown in Figure 2.
  • the locator annulus 30 Disposed radially inwardly of the bulbous fin 18, the locator annulus 30 has a external diameter 32 which is just smaller than the inner diameter of the internal surface 29 of the container neck.
  • the locator annulus 30 is provided therefore with a radially inner face 31, a radially outer face 32, said radially outer face 32 culminating towards its remote end in an annular inclined plane 33 which extends upwardly and outwardly towards the inner face of the container neck 29.
  • the inner rim portion 23 which is radiused comes into contact with the inclined plane of the locator annulus 33 which has the effect of centering the container closure on the container neck.
  • the locator annulus is not intended as a seal but essentially and primarily as a locator means, the sealing effect is to be found between the outer rim portion 22 and the bulbous fin 18. The effect of this is that because the closure 10 is correctly orientated relative to the container neck 20 the problems of "cocking" and centering are correctly addressed.
  • the locator annulus is disposed in-board of the bulbous fin, it tends to strengthen the central portions of the crown 11. This resists doming.
  • the locator annulus 30 has the further effect of retaining the closure coaxially upon the container neck thus resisting tampering.
  • the locator annulus also tends to absorb all lateral forces of application generated by the combination of the application of force and the helical angle of the container/closure threads. This ensures that none of these forces impinge upon the bulbous fin 18 such that the same is inconsistently engaged with the container.
  • the locator annulus and the stiffness of the closure crown together have the effect that any doming of the crown under pressure will only take place within the circumference of the locator annulus 30. This has two effects. In the first place it reduces the effects of doming upon the bulbous fin 18 thus ensuring that the fin does not get pulled out of sealing engagement with the container during cases of extreme doming. Further the locator ring acts as a stiffening rib which resists and reduces the degree of doming exerted by the internal force. This tends to reduce storage problems when the containers are stacked.
  • This invention is particularly desirable when applying a closure to returnable containers where there is a risk of possible damage to the outside corner/surface of the container which might provide a leakage path past the bulbous fin seal in high temperature storage conditions where doming can be expected.
  • the inventive closures are preferably made by injection moulding of high density polyethylene plastics materials.
  • the locator annulus is intended to have no sealing properties and hence needs to be used in conjunction with a primary seal for example as hereinbefore set forth.
