Definitions
- the object of the present invention is to remedy this drawback and it relates to a closure system in which the opening of said The patch is produced by traction and no longer by torsional tearing.
- the means for removing the pellet are independent of the plug and its rotation.
- the base and the pad are carried by the outer face of the packaging and the periphery of the patch is glued to the periphery of the opening.
- the gripping means we can separate the tablet from the packaging (by peeling and / or tearing by traction) via the integral sole, by example by gluing, of said pellet. We then obtain a particularly clean and tidy of the packaging.
- the sole is integral of the internal wall of the neck by breakable connection points and said gripping means are formed by a tongue articulated to said sole.
- the neck, the base, the rigid sole and the means of gripping can form a single piece, in which said sole rigid and said gripping means are linked to the neck and to the base by said breakable connection points.
- Such a part can be made in a synthetic material, by any suitable technique.
- said tongue is elastically articulated to the sole to be able to take either an upright position protruding from the orifice of said neck when the cap is separated of said neck, that is to say a constrained folding position inside said neck when said plug is in place thereon, the plug serving then from abutment to said tongue.
- this may include at least a portion narrowed, said sole being linked to said narrowed part by at least one breakable connection point.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of an embodiment of the system plug according to the present invention, the plug of said system is supposed to be transparent.
- FIGS 2 and 3 are cross sections, respectively according to lines II-II and III-III of Figure 1, said plug being shown there in place on the neck.
- the closure system is intended to be mounted on a package, of which only a portion of wall 1 is shown in the figures.
- This wall 1 for example of cardboard or the like, has an opening 2 closed by a pad 3, which is carried by the outer face 1E of the wall 1 and whose periphery 3P is glued using an adhesive material 4 at the periphery of the opening 2.
- This patch 3 is for example in aluminum or the like.
- the closure system comprises a neck 5 provided, on its lateral face, with an external thread 6 and, at its end directed towards the packaging 1, of a base 7, glued to the outer face 1E of the wall 1, around the opening 2 and the patch 3, by means of an adhesive layer 8.
- the sealing system comprises in addition a plug 9 provided with an internal thread 10 capable to cooperate with the external thread 6 of the neck 5.
- the opening 11 formed can be closed or opened through the neck 5, opposite the base 7.
- said closure system includes a device for tearing off the sealing disc 3 by traction, which is housed inside the neck 5 and which has a sole rigid 12 resting on at least part of the sealing pad 3 and secured to it by means of a layer of adhesive 13.
- the sole 12 is moreover secured to the internal wall of the neck 5 by means of points breakable link 14, 15 and 16.
- the sole 13 is secured a tongue 17, articulated elastically on said sole.
- the single piece formed by the neck 5, the base 7, the rigid sole 12 and the tongue 17 can be produced by molding, injection or any other known technique of synthetic materials.
- the width of the sole 12 is less than the diameter of the orifice 11 and the neck 5 has narrowed parts 18, 19, for example in the form of bellows, directed towards said sole, to which they are linked by breakable connection points 15 and 16.
