Definitions
- the handling during the opening process is predefined in a self-explanatory manner in such a way that a controlled and slow closure opening takes place with little effort.
- the closure including lever and tab
- the solution according to the invention also prevents the closure from springing away from the container, as a result of which material adhering to the closure can be thrown out undesirably. This applies in particular to liquid or dust particles adhering to the closure, which then splash or lead to dust formation.
- the lever arm is engaged by the movement of the tab and the opening process of the closure is initiated and controlled.
- a practical embodiment of the invention which is particularly suitable for large series production provides that the lever arm extends from the tab in the direction of the closure, the free end of the lever arm being directed away from the tab.
- Such a closure can be carried out in such a way that it runs essentially in one plane and is simple and can be produced with little manufacturing effort.
- a particularly precise control of the opening process is made possible with an embodiment of the invention, which provides that a joint is provided between the lever arm and the closure, the axis of rotation of the joint and the pivot axis of the lever arm being parallel to one another.
- a particularly advantageous development of the invention provides that at least two openings are provided in the container, that the closures provided are coupled to a connecting tab, and that on a first closure the tab for opening the closures and the lever arm for controlling the opening process of the second closure is provided. If several closures of a container are connected to one another, handling is much more convenient for the user than if he has to open a series of individual closures one after the other and must remove the removed closures between the opening operations. In addition, with each opening process to be initiated separately, the risk of accidental spilling of the container contents increases. In the case of the described embodiment, on the other hand, the subsequent closure is forcibly controlled by the opening mechanism. movement of the previous shutter. By arranging the tab appropriately for opening, the sequence in which the individual closures are to be opened is also given in a self-explanatory manner.
- a further embodiment of the invention provides that the openings of the container have cross sections of different sizes, in which case the container can have a plurality of container chambers, each of which is assigned an opening. Such an embodiment enables the separation of different materials to be stored in the container, in particular when the container chambers are separated from one another.
- a further development of this embodiment in which the container chambers are connected to one another, is particularly advantageous for storing circulating operating, lubricating or cleaning agents, in which case one opening is connected to an inlet and the other opening is connected to an outlet.
- the connection between the individual container chambers can then take place, for example, via cooling, heating, throttling, cleaning and / or sedimentation sections or the like.
- the container content is stored under a pressure difference from the atmosphere, it is advantageous if the opening with a first closure of the container chamber with a smaller volume of air above a liquid level and the opening with a second closure of the container chamber with a larger volume of air is assigned above the liquid level.
- the effect of the liquid displacement which arises when the pressure is reduced or built up on one side, can then be controlled by a corresponding sequence when the two closures are opened, so that the splashing out of liquid when the container is opened is counteracted.
- the tab and the lever are provided on the first closure, since when the vacuum is released by opening the first closure, the liquid from the chamber with a smaller air volume above the liquid level into the Chamber with a larger volume of air is moved above the liquid level.
- Controlled opening is particularly important when opening containers with negative pressure, since a strong opening movement is necessary to overcome the pressure difference is.
- the opening sequence is reversed so that the direction of the liquid shift remains the same. Therefore, in the second case, the tab and the lever are arranged on the second lock.
- a particularly convenient and precisely controllable opening option for the container is obtained if a joint is provided in the connecting strap. It is particularly favorable in terms of production technology and in relation to the manufacturing costs if the joint is designed as a film hinge joint.
- Fig. 3 shows a separate representation of a closure for two openings
- Figure 4 illustrates the internal structure of the container.
- the container 1 has a base element 2, the special structure of which is shown in detail in FIG.
- the container is further delimited by the peripheral side wall 3 and the upper container wall 4.
- the upper container wall 4 is different with two Large openings 5, 6 provided, wherein the pump opening of the cleaning device is used in the first opening with a larger cross section, while the second opening with a smaller cross section is used for the return of the cleaning liquid.
- Both openings 5, 6 have a round cross section, each of which is formed by a tubular wall section 7 or 8 in the upper container wall.
- the tubular wall sections 2, 8 are provided with somewhat outwardly projecting ends, so that the closures 9 and 10, which are designed as so-called ring snap closures, can be securely attached.
- the first closure 9 with a larger diameter is assigned to the first opening 5, while the second closure 8 is fastened on the tubular wall section 8 of the second opening 6.
- the two closures 9 and 10 are each designed such that their outer circumferential edge encompasses the associated tubular wall section 7 and 8, while a central plug-shaped section is hermetically sealed by a sealing ring (not shown) attached to this section in the respective tubular wall section 7 or 8 protrudes. This ensures a particularly high sealing force and greatly reduces the risk of accidental opening.
- the two closures 9 and 10 are connected to one another by a film hinge 11.
- lever arms 12 which extend essentially parallel to the connecting line between the two closures 9 and 10 and are connected to the first closure 9.
- the free ends of the levers 12 extend in the direction of the second closure 10 and, seen along the connecting line between the two closures, end at the level of the region of the second closure 10 facing the first closure 9.
- a tab 13 is arranged, which can be gripped by the user to open the container.
- Both the lever arms 12 and the tab 13 are provided with through holes 14, each of which is assigned a corresponding rivet 15 on the upper container wall 4, which serves as a tamper-evident seal after the container 1 has been closed by the closures 9, 10, for example by welding or gluing ,
- the tab 13 is slightly offset laterally from the axis of symmetry of the closure when viewed from above in order to provide a particularly ergonomic grip for the Creating users.
- the lateral offset of the tab 13 improves the self-explanatory handling of the container or the closure, because it causes the user to hold the container in his left hand during the opening process so that the larger-diameter opening and the tab 13 point away from it while he grips the tab 13 between the right thumb and the right index finger and initiates the opening process for the first closure 9 in the manner of a peeling movement.
- FIG. 4 shows a partial section through the upper container wall 4 and part of the side wall 3.
- the interior of the container 1 is divided by a partition 19 into a first chamber 20 serving as a suction space for the cleaning device and a further second chamber 21 serving as an inflow space.
- the two chambers 20 and 21 are connected to one another by a single passage 22, which is formed by a distance between the partition wall 19 and the section 23 of the side wall 3 which is distant from the openings 5 and 6.
- the partition wall 19 and the passage 22 define the flow pattern which liquid returning from the cleaning device must pass after passing through the second opening 6 in order to be sucked in again via the first opening 5.
- this flow path is designed as a sedimentation section which has ribs 24 and webs 25.
- the ribs 24 are formed on the side wall 3, while the webs 25 are arranged in a substantially honeycomb shape on the base element 2.
- tubular wall section 8 of the second opening 6 is made relatively short, since it only serves to accommodate the second closure 10.
- tubular wall section 7 of the first opening 5 is of a length which corresponds approximately to the height of the container 1, since it leads to a filter element 26 resting on the ribs 25, to which it is connected such that the filter element 26 covers the entire Diameter of the tubular wall section 7 covered.
- the container 1 is filled with liquid so that a liquid level is obtained which is in the region of the tubular wall section 7, the first opening 5 is assigned a significantly smaller volume of air above the liquid level than the second opening 6 through the tubular wall section 7 storage of the container liquid under a vacuum, as is provided in the interchangeable cartridges with cleaning liquid for cleaning devices for shavers, it is therefore important that during the opening process of the container first the chamber with the lower air volume lumen above the liquid level is opened. If this chamber is first filled with air from the atmosphere, the liquid can escape from this chamber into the other chamber, which is assigned a larger volume of air above the liquid level. In this way, the liquid is prevented from splashing out when the closure is opened.
- Fig. 5 shows an original closed container 1, in which the two closures 9 and 10 seal the associated openings sealing. If an opening force (arrow) is now applied by the user's hand by pulling the tab 13 upward, the rivet 15 is torn off and the first closure 9 is gradually lifted off the first opening 5. In particular due to the vacuum in the container and since the risk of spillage is still low at this stage, the first closure 9 is opened conventionally.
- Fig. 6 shows this opening phase, with the free end of the lever arm 12 just touching the upper container wall 4. At this point in time, the second closure 10 is still in the starting position and closes the second opening 6.
- FIG. 7 shows an opening force in which the second closure 10 has already completely snapped away from the second opening 6 and the entire closure arrangement is only held by the hand of the user.
- the closure arrangement can be closed again at any time, for example for the purpose of transport or after removal from the cleaning device after a certain degree of contamination of the cleaning liquid has been reached, by pressing on the openings. Even if the closure arrangement was carried out and described using the example of two closures, a version with only one closure or more than two closures is of course also possible and feasible.
