Definitions
- the present invention relates to a pouring cap for viscous liquids, which has substantial features of novelty and inventive step over currently known pouring caps.
- the pouring cap to which the present invention relates is especially applicable to receptacles containing viscous liquids, such as vegetable oils, although this does not constitute a specific limitation.
- receptacles containing vegetable oils and the like which are manufactured from various types of plastics materials, are despatched to the public provided with caps which enable them to be opened and closed repeatedly for the metered pouring of the oil or other liquid into oil containers or other receptacles used manually.
- the caps generally have an inner member which guides and regularises the flow of liquid during discharge or pouring, an inner seal which has to be broken before using the liquid contained in the receptacle and an outer closing lid or cover which may be threaded or of another type. Therefore, the use of these receptacles involves the initial removal of the closing lid, breakage of the seal and subsequent use, of the receptacle, this latter being closed again by the closing lid until it is next used.
- repeated use of the receptacle in various pouring operations after removing the closing lid represents a substantial disadvantage owing to the resultant spillage, with the consequent losses of liquid and the soiling which occurs.
- the pouring cap to which the present invention relates is intended to eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages, preventing the losses of liquid and the soiling which usually occur with the currently known pouring caps.
- the present invention is fundamentally based on the provision of a pouring spout in the unit or assembly formed by the closing cap and its lid, with a small outlet for the liquid contained in the receptacle, the cap having closing means which close both the main opening of the cap and the pouring spout.
- the receptacle in such a manner that it is necessary to open the upper cover for access to the seal only once in order to break the seal, while, for subsequent uses, it is not necessary to remove the cap again but only to lift the cover of the pouring means in order to enable the liquid to escape, the cover then being closed again after the liquid has been poured.
- a basic feature consists in the fact that, because the closing cap has a pouring spout with a fine outlet or an outlet having a small pouring capacity, it is possible to use the receptacle containing the viscous liquid directly in domestic applications, for example, in order to pour oil into various receptacles or dishes in the course of being prepared, which enables the use of intermediate receptacles, such as traditional oil cruets, to be eliminated.
- the cap could have a body which can be coupled to the neck of the bottle and which is provided with a pointed lateral pouring region or a pouring spout which is open at the top, being closed by a cover which is associated with the body of the cap and which simultaneously closes the main passage of communication with the receptacle.
- the cover may comprise an articulated region for closing the pouring spout, direct communication existing between the upper portion of the cap and the receptacle containing the liquid, and therefore it is not necessary to open the cover of the cap for each individual pouring operation by way of the pouring spout, or for each fine pouring operation, that is to say, in the case of domestic application, it is not necessary to remove the cover each time the liquid is to be poured out.
- One construction variant of the present invention provides for the structural formation of the fine pouring region with a stepped widened region before the lip for the discharge of liquid, so that the pouring spout comprises, as a whole, a pouring region which corresponds to the present invention but which is optionally of a shorter relative length with respect to the dimensions of the cap and which is characterised in that it has, near the liquid-discharge region, a stepped portion which preferably defines, at the end, a straight region which is capable of bringing about the abrupt and reliable interruption of the pouring stream, thus avoiding any dripping.

The fine pouring operation can be carried out without having to decant the liquid from the receptacle 3 to an oil container, or other intermediate receptacle, as is currently normal.
- the upper cover 12 which closes the lid, has a radial extension 13 coinciding at the top with the pointed region 9, thus closing it, and preferably having a front flange 14 which can be fitted against the end of the pouring spout 9, thus closing it.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a pouring cap for viscous liquids, which has substantial features of novelty and inventive step over currently known pouring caps.
- The pouring cap to which the present invention relates is especially applicable to receptacles containing viscous liquids, such as vegetable oils, although this does not constitute a specific limitation.
- At present, receptacles containing vegetable oils and the like, which are manufactured from various types of plastics materials, are despatched to the public provided with caps which enable them to be opened and closed repeatedly for the metered pouring of the oil or other liquid into oil containers or other receptacles used manually. The caps generally have an inner member which guides and regularises the flow of liquid during discharge or pouring, an inner seal which has to be broken before using the liquid contained in the receptacle and an outer closing lid or cover which may be threaded or of another type. Therefore, the use of these receptacles involves the initial removal of the closing lid, breakage of the seal and subsequent use, of the receptacle, this latter being closed again by the closing lid until it is next used. However, repeated use of the receptacle in various pouring operations after removing the closing lid represents a substantial disadvantage owing to the resultant spillage, with the consequent losses of liquid and the soiling which occurs.
- The pouring cap to which the present invention relates is intended to eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages, preventing the losses of liquid and the soiling which usually occur with the currently known pouring caps.
- The present invention is fundamentally based on the provision of a pouring spout in the unit or assembly formed by the closing cap and its lid, with a small outlet for the liquid contained in the receptacle, the cap having closing means which close both the main opening of the cap and the pouring spout. Owing to this arrangement, it is possible to use the receptacle in such a manner that it is necessary to open the upper cover for access to the seal only once in order to break the seal, while, for subsequent uses, it is not necessary to remove the cap again but only to lift the cover of the pouring means in order to enable the liquid to escape, the cover then being closed again after the liquid has been poured. At all events, a basic feature consists in the fact that, because the closing cap has a pouring spout with a fine outlet or an outlet having a small pouring capacity, it is possible to use the receptacle containing the viscous liquid directly in domestic applications, for example, in order to pour oil into various receptacles or dishes in the course of being prepared, which enables the use of intermediate receptacles, such as traditional oil cruets, to be eliminated.
- The precise execution of the cap can be varied widely while conforming to the above-mentioned features. Thus, for example, the cap could have a body which can be coupled to the neck of the bottle and which is provided with a pointed lateral pouring region or a pouring spout which is open at the top, being closed by a cover which is associated with the body of the cap and which simultaneously closes the main passage of communication with the receptacle. In other variants, the cover may comprise an articulated region for closing the pouring spout, direct communication existing between the upper portion of the cap and the receptacle containing the liquid, and therefore it is not necessary to open the cover of the cap for each individual pouring operation by way of the pouring spout, or for each fine pouring operation, that is to say, in the case of domestic application, it is not necessary to remove the cover each time the liquid is to be poured out.
- One construction variant of the present invention provides for the structural formation of the fine pouring region with a stepped widened region before the lip for the discharge of liquid, so that the pouring spout comprises, as a whole, a pouring region which corresponds to the present invention but which is optionally of a shorter relative length with respect to the dimensions of the cap and which is characterised in that it has, near the liquid-discharge region, a stepped portion which preferably defines, at the end, a straight region which is capable of bringing about the abrupt and reliable interruption of the pouring stream, thus avoiding any dripping.

-
- As will be appreciated from the drawings, the pouring cap to which the present invention relates comprises, in the usual manner, a
body 1 coupled in a fixed manner to the upper end of theneck 2 of the bottle orreceptacle 3, and having an intermediate region 4 which is to regularise the discharge flow of the liquid, and anintermediate sealing cover 5 provided with anupper handle 6 making it easier to tear it off. Anupper lid 7 is removably coupled to thebody 1 of the cap, for example, by means of a threadedregion 8, enabling thelid 7 to be removed for the purpose of pouring the liquid in a conventional manner. In accordance with the invention, thelid 7 has alateral pouring spout 9 with a width decreasing from its start as far as the pouring end, which has an outlet ofsmall cross-section 10 provided with a loweranti-drip lip 11. This embodiment enables the cap to be used both for normal pouring of a conventional type and for fine pouring similar to that of a cooking oil container. The fine pouring operation can be carried out without having to decant the liquid from thereceptacle 3 to an oil container, or other intermediate receptacle, as is currently normal. - In the version shown, the
upper cover 12, which closes the lid, has aradial extension 13 coinciding at the top with thepointed region 9, thus closing it, and preferably having afront flange 14 which can be fitted against the end of thepouring spout 9, thus closing it. In this case, theupper cover 12 has an inner cylindrical body orbushine 15 which fits against the inner walls of the cylindrical portion of thelid 7 in such a manner that, when thecover 12 is closed, the passage of thereceptacle 3 towards the outside and the upper portion of thepouring spout 9 are closed at the same time. Thus, when thecover 12 is opened, for example by swinging on therear hinge 16, the cap will permit both conventional pouring and fine pouring by way of the pouring spout, as shown in Figure 5 where the pouring flow has been indicated by thenumeral 17. - In a preferred embodiment shown in Figures 6 to 9, the
body 18 of the closing lid has, coupled by a thread or another similar means, a cover provided with acylindrical body 19 and with a front pouringspout 20 having features similar to the version explained above, with the variation that thecover 21 has, in thefront region 22 for covering the pouring spout, ashort end region 23 which is connected to theregion 22 by means of ahinge 24 or fold of the same material which enables a small front region to be opened individually, thus permitting fine pouring of the liquid, as shown in Figure 9 in which the discharged liquid has been represented by thenumeral 25 and the opening of theend region 23 articulated by means of thehinge 24 may be noted. In this version, theinner body 40 associated with thecover 21 has a communicatingmeans 26 in the form of a recess, openings, or any other form of communicating means, in order to enable the liquid to pass from the inside of thereceptacle 27 towards the outlet constituted by the end of thepouring spout 20 and closed by theend cover member 23. - In another variant represented in Figures 10 to 12, the cap has a single structure which is formed from two coaxial
cylindrical members neck 30 of the bottle or receptacle, preferably by means of aninner rib 31 of thecylindrical body 28 and theflange 32 directed radially outwards from the upper end of the neck, and which has anupper cover 33 which may comply with the versions represented above, that is to say, it may be provided with a single upper cover for closing thepouring spout 34 or it could be formed with a small front member intended specifically for closing the end of thepouring spout 34. In the version shown, thecover 33 has a cylindricalinner closing bushing 35 and arear hinge 36 for articulation to thebody 28. Some small outer stops on thebody 28, which are indicated by thenumerals cover 33 to reach a stop position after it has been rotated, as represented in Figure 12. In the version shown, thecylindrical body 28 fits on a projection of theperipheral flange 39 which theneck 30 has below therib 32. In that position, thecylindrical body 28 is trapped in a fixed manner between thelower flange 39 and therib 32. - In accordance with the variant represented in Figures 13 to 19, the variant provided for in the present invention comprises a
cylindrical body 101 which is to be fitted to the neck of the bottle or receptacle for which it is intended. Said cylindrical body has aninner seal 102, which can be torn off by means of astrip 103, and is provided with anupper cover 104 hinged at rear hinges orarticulations 105. Thecover 104 has over its entire periphery a downwardly directedflange 106 which can coincide with the upper flange of thecap body 101. - In order to permit fine pouring of the liquid, the cap has an
extension 107 which assumes a structure which is substantially that of an angular spout and which matches the shape of thecover 104, thus producing a rounded vertex for fine pouring. In accordance with the present improvements, theangular spout 107 has a widened portion in the form of astep 108 which is straight, curved or optionally slightly angular and which is arranged just before thelip 109 of theangular extension 107, which is the lip determining the discharge of the fine stream of liquid. The arrangement of thestep 108, preferably with a straightintermediate region 110 between the base of the step and thelip 109, enables the fine stream of liquid to be interrupted abruptly at the end of the pouring procedure by means of the cap, which completely eliminates dripping from the cap during the pouring operation.
