Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of containers, generally bottles, of which the orifice is provided with a pourer, typically in the case of liquor conditioning, aperitifs, alcohols.
  • pourers are already known, associated with capping capsules, which are distinguished in particular by their method of attachment to the neck of the container and by the pouring element itself.
  • the pouring element itself it can be either fixed configuration, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, or variable configuration, including axially movable as described in FR 2,057,345, GB 922,188 patents , US 3,217,935 and US 4,569,464.
  • the pourer can be force-fitted into the neck, the pourer being generally provided with circular sealing ribs as shown in Figure 2, and described in FR 2,057 patents. 345, GB 922,188 and US 3,217,935.
  • pourers are associated with a closure cap and are therefore attached to the neck during crimping of the closure cap associated with said pourer, and this, by applying an axial force exerted on the head of the closure cap, an axial force relatively high, which can range from 80 to 100 daN, being necessary for said pourer is irreversibly fixed to the neck. Under these conditions, given the level of this force, some caps capping may be damaged, including buckling of the skirt or alteration means easy opening.
  • the problem to be solved is therefore to have a pourer whose attachment to the neck requires only a relatively low axial force, typically less than 20 daN, so as to associate said pourer to any type of capping cap, even the least mechanically resistant, given the permanent tendency to reduce the thickness of materials and the weight of packaging.
  • the invention solves the problem posed. Indeed, with the means of the invention, on the one hand, the introduction of the capsule and the associated pourer in the neck requires only a force F I , called introduction, relatively low, given the choice external dimensions of the peripheral skirt with respect to the internal dimensions of the neck. On the other hand, the axial displacement that follows the introduction of the pourer into the neck certainly requires an axial force F D , called displacement, greater than F I , so that said axial displacement can not begin before the pourer is not properly inserted into the neck, but this displacement force F D remains much lower than that required by the capsules with pourers of the state of the art.
  • FIG. 1A is a partial view of a capsule (1) equipped with its insert (2) and associated with a spout (3), in axial section along the vertical axis (11) of the capsule, the pourer being introduced into the neck (9) of a container, the rigid part (6H) of the pourer being still in the upper position, before fixing the spout to the neck and therefore before any axial displacement of the rigid piece (6).
  • Figure 1B is similar to Figure 1A, but with the rigid part (6B) in the low position, as a result of its axial displacement.
  • Figure 1C is similar to Figure 1A and shows the capsule (1) with its insert (2) and its pourer (3) before introduction into the neck (9).
  • Figure 2 is similar to Figure 1B, but differs in that the circular lip flexible (80) is integral with the rigid piece (6), and not the peripheral skirt (4) as in Figures 1A and 1B.
  • FIGS. 3A to 4B are partial enlarged views, in axial section along the vertical axis (11) of the capsule, of other embodiments of the invention in which a means of cooperation (7) is used to transform the axial displacement the rigid piece (6) in radial displacement of the lower part (5).
  • the means (7) is a triangular section rigid element (73), whereas in FIGS. 4A and 4B, this means (7) is a rod or rigid planar element (72).
  • the rigid piece (6) is in the high position, and denoted 6H, while it is in the low position, and denoted 6B, in Figures 4A and 4B.
  • FIGS. 5A to 6 similar to FIGS. 3A to 4B, describe other embodiments of the invention in which the rigid piece (6) bears directly against the lower part (5) and more specifically against its inner side (510). ).
  • the rigid piece (6) is a typically cylindrical skirt, whereas in FIG. 6, similar to FIG. 5B, this rigid skirt forms a cage (63) containing a ball (630) so as to make the pourer refillable.
  • FIG. 8B is a side perspective view of the insert (2) and the pourer (3), before temporary assembly of these two parts.
  • FIGS. 9A and 9B illustrate two modalities of the lower part (5), in section in a horizontal plane perpendicular to the axis (11).
  • this lower part (5) comprises 6 rigid tongues (53) joined together by a thin skirt (530), while in FIGS. 7B and 8B the pourer has only 3 tabs (53).
  • this lower part (5) comprises 3 insulated tabs (52).
  • FIGS. 10A and 10B are partial sections along the axis (11) relative to the insert (2), to the insert only in FIG. 10A, and to the insert when the closure cap closes the neck (9).
  • Figures 11A and 11B are similar to Figures 1A and 1B. They differ in this that, in the case of FIGS. 11A and 11B, the flexible circular lip (80) and the lip (23) have a diameter and a flexibility such as the sealing lip presses directly on the rim (90) of the neck (9).
  • Figures 12A and 12B are similar to Figures 1A and 1B. They differ in that the peripheral skirt (4) and the rigid part (6) comprise frustoconical surfaces respectively noted (44) and (64), FIG. 12B being an enlarged view of the FIG. 12A.
  • FIG. 13 is similar to FIG. 1A and differs in that sealing is ensured by the ribs (512) carried by the lower part (5).
  • FIG. 14 comprises two left G and right D views of a pourer (3), in axial half-section, whose lower part (5) comprises circularly an alternation of articulated rigid rods (74) carrying a rigid heel (740) , and rigid heels (54) carrying fins (541).
  • Figure 15 is a partial side elevational view of the spout (3) illustrating the provision of rigid heels (54), heels devoid of fins.
  • FIGS. 16A to 16C are diagrammatic views from below (partial views in the case of FIGS. 16B and 16C), the rigid piece (6) being in the high position H in FIG. 16A, and in the lower position B in FIG. the 8 rigid bolts (54) and the 8 rigid heels (740) are spaced radially locking.
  • FIG. 16C illustrates a variant in which each latch (54) comprises two lateral recesses (541) allowing axial locking of the beads (740).
  • the lower part (5) can be rigid and articulated with respect to the peripheral skirt (4), typically thanks to a thinned portion (50) forming a hinge O and connecting the lower part (5) to the peripheral skirt (4), and forms an articulated element (51), typically in the form of an angular sector of angle ⁇ bounded by the outer sides OC and inner OD, each making an angle ⁇ C and ⁇ D respectively relative to the vertical, and in which the rigid part (6) cooperates, typically not its end, with the lower part (5), typically by its inner side OD, so that said axial displacement down the rigid part ( 6) causes rotation of said articulated element or angular sector (51), the angle ⁇ C being typically 0 ° and the angle ⁇ D equal to - ⁇ ° before said axial displacement, the angle ⁇ C typically being + ⁇ ° and the angle ⁇ D equaling 0 ° after said displacement axi al, ⁇ being typically between 5 and 25 °.
  • an articulated element (51) typically in the form of an
  • FIGS. 1A and 1B, 3A and 3B, 4a and 4B, 7A, 11A and 11B illustrate these rotations of the lower part (5).
  • the rigid piece (6) can cooperate with the lower part (5) by a rigid element (72,73) forming the cooperation means (7) and articulated at its ends X and Y, a ends X being integral with, or made integral with, the lower part (5), the other end Y being secured to, or secured to, the rigid part (6), so that said axial displacement of the element rigid (72,73), by varying the inclination of said articulated element (51) to reach said stable position and by moving the Y end downwards, pushes the X-end radially outwardly, thus ensuring said passage from the high position H to the low position Y.
  • This modality is illustrated in FIGS. 3A to 4B and 7A to 9B.
  • the height Z YH of said end Y in the high position, before said axial displacement can be typically greater at the height Z X of said X end, while the height Z YB of said Y end in the low position, after said axial displacement, may be typically less than the height Z X of said X end, and secondly, said rigid element (73) may have a typically triangular section, the Y end forming an apex of this triangle, so that, in the low position, an adjacent side (730) to this vertex abuts against the rigid piece ( 6) and thus limits said axial displacement downwards.
  • said lower portion (5) may comprise, as articulated elements (51), rigid tongues (53) or rigid heels (54) regularly spaced and in number n ranging from 3 to 10, and typically from 4 to 8, with each tongue (53) or heel (54) corresponding to a separate rigid member (72, 73).
  • n is equal to 8.
  • a lock (740) can be angularly interposed between two said rigid heels (54) consecutive, by means of a locking rod (74) similar to said rigid element (72,73), so as to block said rigid heels circularly by said locks when said rigid piece (6) is in so-called low position.
  • said locks (740) and said rigid heels (54) can cooperate, typically by means of a detent notch (540), so as to reinforce the attachment of the pourer (3) to the neck (9) .
  • said rigid heels (54) comprise fins (541), so as to reinforce the attachment of the spout (3) to said neck (9).
  • the pourer (3) preferably forms a single piece.
  • the lower end (61) of the rigid piece (6) can bear directly on an inner side (510) of the lower part (5), in order to form said cooperation means.
  • This modality has been illustrated on FIGS. 1A, 1B, 2, 5A, 5B, 6, 11A to 13.
  • the rigid piece (6) and the peripheral skirt (4) may comprise elements (62, 43), male and female, cooperating and irreversibly to obtain said stable position, as illustrated in FIGS. 1A and 1B as example. Indeed, whatever the modality of the invention, it is generally it is preferable that the pourer remains attached to the neck once placed in the latter.
  • the closure cap (1) typically metallic, is provided with a plastic insert (2) sealing the closure cap (1) and comprising the temporary assembly means (20). and a means for axial displacement (21) of the rigid part (6), these two means being able to be partially merged, the temporary assembly means (20), typically having the shape of a crown, ensuring the temporary cooperation of the insert (2), integral with the capsule (1), and the spout (3), the axial displacement means (21) of the insert being in direct contact with the rigid piece (6H) in the so-called high position.
  • the pourers according to the invention can already present, in themselves, a great interest, the greatest interest lies in the combination of a pourer and a capping capsule, since it is to solve a problem related to such an association that the pourer according to the invention has been developed.
  • the capsule with a pourer is used on a bottling machine substantially like a standard capsule without a pourer, and this without risk of damage to the capsule, which illustrates the great interest of the invention.
  • the peripheral skirt (4) of the pourer may comprise at least one circular rib (41) sealing the pourer (4) with the neck (9), the width, the number and the flexibility of the ribs (41) being chosen for to obtain a rather high friction with the neck to ensure said sealing, and yet low enough so that the peripheral skirt (4) can, during the attachment of the pourer, and the associated closure cap, to the neck (9), be introduced in its final place in the neck (9), by axial support on the capsule, before the said axial movement towards the bottom of the rigid piece (6) begins.
  • the friction can be chosen so that the force F I to introduce the pourer and its peripheral skirt into the neck is typically less than 10 daN, and a force F D , greater than F I , typically greater than 10 daN , and preferably between 10 and 20 daN, is necessary to ensure said axial displacement.
  • the peripheral skirt (4) may comprise an upper rim (42) resting on all or part of the rim (90) of the neck (9) when the peripheral skirt (4) of the pourer (3) is placed in the neck (9).
  • the pourer subjected to the axial force F I , abuts against the rim (90), so as to avoid controlling the axial displacement of the peripheral skirt (4) of the pourer.
  • the pouring element may be integral with either the peripheral skirt (4) or the part rigid (6). It has been shown integral with the peripheral skirt (4) on all the figures concerned, except in Figure 2 where it has been shown attached to the rigid part (6).
  • the pouring element can comprise a flexible circular lip (8), in the bent (8F) or plated state, typically against the rim of the neck, when the neck (9) is closed by the capping capsule (1), or in the expanded state (8D) when the pourer (3) is to be used, the capsule of capping (1), typically screw, having been removed.
  • the insert (2) may comprise, in addition to a securing lip (22) of the insert (2) with the metal part (10) of the capsule (1), a lip of sealing (23) directed towards the inside of the neck (9) and intended to bear on the rim (90) of the neck (9) or on the circular lip (8F) forming the pouring element if the latter extends on said rim, so as to seal the neck (9).
  • a lip of sealing (23) directed towards the inside of the neck (9) and intended to bear on the rim (90) of the neck (9) or on the circular lip (8F) forming the pouring element if the latter extends on said rim, so as to seal the neck (9).
  • the flexible circular lip (8) may have in the expanded state (8D) an outside diameter which is smaller than the inside diameter of the sealing lip (23), so that when the neck (9) is closed by the closure cap (1), the circular lip moves to the bent state (8F) by pressing against the sealing lip (23), which itself is pressed against the water (90) of the neck.
  • all or part of the seal said sealing means of the pourer (3) to the neck (9) can be provided by the less an external rib (512) carried by the lower part (5).
  • the skirt device (4) and the rigid part (6) can cooperate on frustoconical surfaces (44, 64), so that said axial displacement results in a radial spacing of the peripheral skirt (4), so as to increase the fixing and / or the sealing between the neck (9) and the spout (3).
  • the functions of the insert (2) are in particular to ensure the tight closure of the neck, as well as the temporary assembly of the pourer.
  • the insert (2) can also be threaded, and in this case, it comprises a threaded skirt intended to cooperate with the thread of the neck.
  • the rigid piece (6) can form a cage (63) for a ball (630), so as to form a non-refillable pourer (3I).
  • Another object of the invention is constituted by a closure cap secured temporarily to a pourer according to the invention, by the cooperation of a means temporary assembly (20) carried by the insert (2), and an assembly means temporary (40,60) carried by the pourer (3). Such an object is shown in FIG. 1C.
  • the shell of the capsule is typically metallic (10), but the invention is not limited to this type of material. It could also be plastic.
  • the inserts (2) and the pourers (3) can be molded plastic. They can be in any plastic material capable of being molded, chosen according to its cost and the mechanical characteristics required, but typically in polyolefin, such as PE, PP, or other thermoplastic materials, such as PA, PET, PS (optionally modified to have sufficient flexibility), or elastomeric material such as SBS or other synthetic rubbers.
  • the inserts and pourers can be formed in one piece or monoblocks, except when two separate parts are provided, such as with the pourers of Figures 1A to 2 and 5A to 6.
  • the peripheral skirt (4) and its lower part (5) of elastomeric material the lower part (5) being in this case made rigid by the thickness of the material, whereas the rigid part (6) will be made of a larger material hardness, rigidity and other mechanical characteristics, for example in PP, so as to ensure a tight attachment of the peripheral skirt (4) to the neck (9), the sealing required here so that, when the pourer is used, the all poured liquid flows well through the pouring element (8), and this, without liquid flow or seep between the inner wall of the neck and the pourer.
  • the pourers are formed of a single piece and have hinges to allow the articulation of a means of cooperation (7) between the lower portion (5) of the peripheral skirt and the rigid part (6) of the pourer, as in the case of the pourers of Figures 3A to 4B, 7A and 8A, the hinges are obtained by wall thinning and, conversely, the more rigid parts, such as the rigid part (6), are obtained by playing on the thickness of the material.
  • pourers or pourer elements (4 and 5) in one piece at least two different materials by overmolding. So, for example, the pouring element (8) and / or the lower portion (5) forming an angular sector (51) can be in one material different from that constituting the peripheral skirt (4).
  • FIGS. 1A and 7A are examples of embodiments of capsules (1) provided with inserts (2) and provided with pourers (3) according to the invention. In these examples, all the capsules and pourers were manufactured for capping 31.5 mm OD necks - see Figure 7A.
  • the invention considerably reduces the problems encountered on capping line insofar as, without having to modify the capping lines, the capsules are no longer deteriorated, with both production stops and losses of products that are the consequence.
  • the invention discloses means for adapting the pourer to any type of capsule and any type of diameter.
  • the invention makes it possible to introduce, without significant additional cost, a complementary function, such as non-refillability.
  • the pourer according to the invention comprises means that make it otherwise impossible at least difficult to extract the spout of the neck, so as to reduce the possibilities of fraud.
  • the capsule and its associated pourer are of practical use insofar as, for the consumer, there is no significant difference between a standard capsule without pourer or a capsule with pourer according to the invention, both as regards the height of the bottle and its size, that the manual opening force, in particular to remove the cooperation of the insert (2) and the pourer (3), through the means of temporary assembly (20) and (40,60), remains in the range of what is perceived as usual by the consumer.
