Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plastic closure according to the preamble of Claim 1.
  • Plastic closures are known for a wide variety of applications, e.g. for packaging food or chemicals. All Plastic closures consist of at least one part with a lid function and a base part which is connected to the container and in closed state with the cover part is in positive engagement. Depending on whether the lid is screwed or folded, the Plastic closure made of one or more parts.
  • closures with a round basic shape There are essentially closures with a round basic shape and closures with a rectangular basic shape. Find the closures with a round basic shape itself as a twist or flip closure, especially on bottles or canisters Containers or as a twist lock also on the known cuboid Containers for milk, juices etc. .. closures with a round basic shape, especially as a twist lock, always have a not insignificant height and are therefore e.g. for the square-shaped containers mentioned unsuitable as this reduces their stackability.
  • Guarantee seal An additional component of a plastic closure, which is especially for the Food packaging is important is the so-called Guarantee seal that is broken the first time the lock is opened and thus serves the consumer as a sign of whether the closure already has been opened once.
  • guarantee seals can take many different forms. at Twist locks often find a ring around the base part that lasts until the first Unscrewing is connected to the lid. Another option is there inside, the guarantee seal in the central opening of the clasp to arrange and to provide a handle so that the guarantee seal be removed by pulling out before first pouring or pouring can to release the opening.
  • a flat lid is known from US Pat. No. 5,101,999, which in Injection molding technology was carried out in one piece. It surrounds a base part central opening, which is marked by a surrounding web, one hinged lid and a guarantee seal that is in the central Opening is arranged.
  • This flat lid is characterized by several Special features.
  • the surrounding web is one at one end Spout shaped.
  • the guarantee seal is designed so that it can be pressed down and thus opens the container. It's on same end of the base part as the lid hinged and attached to the other Secured at the end via a thin bridge that breaks through for the first opening must become.
  • the disadvantage is that the guarantee seal is difficult to impress.
  • the complex shape of the flat lid means that Manufacturing effort and thus the costs are disproportionately high.
  • the invention has for its object to a plastic closure find that is structured as simply as possible despite improved casting behavior, to keep unit costs to a minimum for mass production.
  • the task is through a plastic closure with the Features of claim 1 solved. It is a generic Plastic closure provided that the guarantee seal after opening is designed on the back as a pouring aid.
  • the guarantee seal is in Delivery state first connected to the lower part on tear lines. After opening the fastener for the first time, the plastic material tears these tear lines and the pour opening is released.
  • a connection for example a film hinge connected so that it with a pivoting movement the film hinge to the lower part as an axis of rotation from the lower part can be folded out.
  • the connection between the guarantee seal and the lower part is inseparable in contrast to the connection (s) that were used when the lock was first opened be irreversibly resolved. This connection is on the side of the lower part arranged, towards which the contents of the container are poured or to be distributed.
  • the side facing the container before opening the guarantee seal The guarantee seal is designed as a pouring aid. Will the guarantee seal the contents of the container are opened over them enough rear side, designed as a pouring aid, of the guarantee seal from the Container brought out.
  • the upper and lower part of the plastic fastener can either have a Connection to be connected to each other or to be separate components, which is mounted, for example, via a snap connection or screw connection become.
  • the lower part can be connected to the container in any way.
  • the method of attachment is determined, among other things, by the material of the container certainly.
  • Metal or plastic containers are mentioned as examples which you could weld the plastic closure, or glass or Cardboard containers with which the plastic closure could be glued.
  • the plastic closure according to the invention for containers suitable for any material.
  • Guarantee seal Handle attached, which grips and thus opens the Guarantee seal relieved.
  • the lower part preferably has a recess into which the Guarantee seal fits after opening, so that it for stabilization is locked during pouring or pouring.
  • One embodiment has a further improvement in the casting behavior a side guide that leads to the opened guarantee seal. she prevents from pouring or pouring the contents of the container lateral escape and thus ensures targeted removal of the Container contents.
  • the plastic closure is preferably designed as a flat closure, i.e. that the height of the closure compared to the dimensions of the Base of the closure is small. This will particularly help with cuboid containers ensure good stackability.
  • the artificial sound lock can have any basic shape, be it round, be it square, be it oval. It has proven advantageous to have one triangular basic shape to choose, in which the connection between Guarantee seal and lower part, which when opening the guarantee seal as Serves axis of rotation, is arranged at the base of the triangle.
  • the connection between Guarantee seal and lower part which when opening the guarantee seal as Serves axis of rotation, is arranged at the base of the triangle.
  • the embodiments shown below are based on a Plastic closure with a triangular basic shape. It is a flat lock executed in which the height of the closure compared to the dimensions of the Triangle sides is low. Upper part 2 and lower part 1 are connected 3 connected and together form a hinged closure, being in closed state via circumferential webs 8 in positive engagement stand.
  • Fig. 1 is a triangular flat fastener in the closed state shown.
  • the upper part connected to the lower part 1 via the connection 3 lies on the lower part 1.
  • the upper part 2 of the triangular flat fastener shown in FIG. 2 is light raised so that the guarantee seal 4 can be seen underneath, the one with a loop-like handle 5 is provided.
  • the guarantee seal 4 which, like the entire synthetic sound lock has essentially a triangular shape and completely the underlying one Dump opening 9 (see FIGS. 4-6) covered.
  • a handle 5 in the form of a loop is attached to the triangle tip.
  • the guarantee seal 4 is folded out vertically. Its back is shaped in the form of a pouring spout as pouring aid 10, via which the Contents can leave the container if you tilt it.
  • the web 8 the closed state of the closure with the positive closure serves the upper part 2, has the function of a when fully open lateral guidance, which allows the contents of the container to escape laterally prevented.
  • Fig. 6 shows another embodiment of a triangular Flat closure, which is different from the embodiment shown in Fig. 5 differs in that the lower part 1 has a recess 7 which in circumferential web 8, which serves as a lateral guide, is arranged.
  • the unfolded pouring aid 10 fits exactly into the recess 7 and leaves jam between the edges of the recess 7 so that the Pouring aid 10 is stabilized in motion and thus the pouring behavior of the Plastic closure is increased.
