Description
- The invention relates generally to the field of packaging, and in particular to packaging for long rolls of photosensitive web material. More specifically, the invention relates to a light-tight packaging container, which includes features for keeping the container securely closed to ensure light-tightness during shipping and storage.
- Typically, long rolls of photosensitive web material, e.g., photographic film used for surveillance, social/portrait, and commercial imaging are commonly packaged in containers ensuring light-tightness from the manufacturer to the film processor. The rolls of photographic film are wound onto cores with or without flanges. The light-tight containers generally have a film compartment and a closure adapted to fit rather snugly about the film compartment. The containers are often fabricated of metal or plastic.
- It is well known that the closure for such film containers must be securely attached to the film compartment to ensure light-tightness during shipping and handling. An existing practice for securing the closure to the film compartment is by wrapping some sort of opaque or partially opaque adhesive material, such as tape, around the circumference covering the seam between the closure and film compartment. Generally, the manufacturer of photographic film product would apply the adhesive material or tape to the seam between the film compartment and the closure in a dark environment to ensure light-tightness of the product in the package during shipping and handling from the factory to the photographer. When the product is ready to be used, the photographer removes the tape from the seam and disposes of it in the environmental waste stream. The photographer then holds the packaging container in a light-tight closed condition until it has been inserted into a dark, film-changing bag or enters a dark room. While in the dark environment, the photographer then opens the packaging container, removes the film and installs it in the camera. After exposing the film, the photographer uses a dark, film-changing bag or dark room to remove the film from the camera and places the exposed film back into the light-tight packaging container. The photographer then secures the packaging container with the closure in a light-tight closed position about the film compartment and then wraps a tape about the seam to ensure light-tightness during shipping and handling from the photographer to the photo-finishing laboratory. The film processor or photo-finishing laboratory would then have to remove and dispose of the tape securing the seam between the closure and the film compartment in order to access the film.
- It should be appreciated that existing packaging containers for photosensitive film product have numerous shortcomings. For instance, the adhesive material or tape introduces added labor cost (in the form of additional operators) to the film manufacture process. Operators would then be exposed to the possibility of injuries when cutting the tape in a dark environment suitable for handling photosensitive film. Moreover, the tape introduces an undesirable cost burden to the film manufacturer who applies the tape to the container to protect the photosensitive product. Further, the tape is a waste burden to the photographer who removes the tape and ultiumately disposes of it. Still further, the tape is a cost burden to the photographer who re-tapes the film container before shipment to the processing lab. Finally, the tape is a waste burden to the processing lab that removes the tape to access the exposed film. Thus, at some point the removed tape is disposed of by the processing lab.
- Illustrative of existing containers having threaded and lockable closure elements primarily for safety and health is described in U.S. Patent 5,816,422, October 6, 1998, titled, "Package With Safety Lid and Seal" by Roig. According to the '422 patent the container has projections 5, 6 in the closure that mate with
recesses 9 and 10 on the body. The integrity of the locking mechanism in the aforementioned patent does not conform to the requirements of light-tightness as does the present invention. - Therefore, a need persists for a packaging container for photosensitive film product that replaces the need for tape to ensure light-tight protection of the film product, which is simple to use and cost effective to produce.
- It is, therefore, an object of the invention to provide a light-tight packaging container for photosensitive film product that is easy to access in a dark environment.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a light-tight packaging container that can be easily resealed in a dark environment without the need for additional materials.
- Yet another object of the invention is to provide a light-tight packaging container for photosensitive film that resolves the problem of adding product to the environmental waste stream.
- It is a feature of the invention that a first detent feature formed on a flange of the film compartment interlocks with a cooperating second detent feature formed in the closure to secure the film compartment from the penetration of light.
- To solve these and other objects, features and advantages of the invention, there is provided, in one aspect of the invention, a light-tight packaging container, comprising:
- a generally cylindrical container compartment having a base, sidewalls surrounding said base, and a central opening opposite said base, said sidewalls having at least one first thread helically arranged thereon and a flange spaced from said thread and extending at least partially around said sidewalls, said flange having a first detent feature extending axially from said flange; and,
- a generally cylindrical closure configured for fitting over at least a portion of said sidewalls, said closure having at least one second thread helically extending from an interior wall for cooperatively engaging said first thread of said container compartment, said closure having a second detent feature formed in a peripheral end edge for interlocking with said first detent feature in said flange thereby securing said closure from axial movement along said flange.
-
- The present invention has numerous advantageous effects over current developments. First, it eliminates the need for an adhesive tape to secure the seam between the closure and product compartment to ensure a light-tight condition inside the product compartment. Next, it eliminates the cost and waste associated with the adhesive tape. Further, it is simple and cost effective to manufacture. And, the packaging container of the invention is easy to use.
- The above and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent when taken in conjunction with the following description and drawings, wherein identical reference numerals have been used, where possible, to designate identical features that are common to the figures, and wherein:
- Figure 1 is an isometric view of the closed packaging container of the invention;
- Figure 2 is an isometric view of the closure showing the detention feature;
- Figure 3 is an isometric view of the packaging compartment showing the detention feature;
- Figure 4 is an enlarged view of the packaging compartment and closure detention feature interface;

According to Fig. 5,
sidewalls 30 surroundingbase 14 have aflange 18 and afirst thread 36 extending helically at least partially around thesidewalls 16. As in the previous embodiment, theflange 18 includes a firstdetent feature 38 extending axially therefrom. - Referring to Fig. 6, a generally
cylindrical closure 40 is configured for closing theopening 17. Closure 40 has an insidesecond thread 42 extending helically about aninner wall 43 ofclosure 40 for cooperatively engaging the outsidefirst thread 36 ofcontainer compartment 12. Aperipheral edge 44 of theclosure 40 includes a seconddetent feature 46 for engaging the firstdetent feature 38 in theflange 18 thereby securing theclosure 40 from axial movement along theflange 18. - In this embodiment,
closure 40 can tightly close uponcontainer compartment 12 by threadably screwing thefirst thread 36 into thesecond thread 42 so that the firstdetent feature 38 aligns with and then interlocks the seconddetent feature 46. This prevents light penetration into thecontainer compartment 12 and unintended unscrewing of theclosure 40 after theclosure 40 has been coupled through axial pressure with thecontainer compartment 12. Closure 40 may have a plurality ofribs 52 along its periphery for ease of engaging and disengaging thesecond thread 42 from thefirst thread 36. - As indicated above, the
first detent feature 38 is preferably a protuberance having a generally arcuate shape. Skilled artisans will appreciate that the protuberance and the notch may have practically any shape such as a generally square shape, a generally V-shape, or a generally C-shape. Depicted in Fig. 5, on either end of the generallyarcuate shape protuberance 38 is afirst land 54 and an opposedsecond land 56. The first andsecond lands protuberance 38 between a light-tight and a light- "loose" position relative to the second detent feature or notch 46 (Fig. 6). - In another embodiment of the invention, a method of forming a light-
tight packaging container 10 for photosensitive film product includes the step of providing apackaging container 10 and aremovable closure 22 configured to fit snugly about thecontainer compartment 12, each as described above.
