Definitions
- the present invention relates to a tank cap such as an aerosol can intended to be presented in a vertical position.
- the packaging of liquid products to be sprayed, in the form of an aerosol are used for multiple applications and in particular for everyday applications.
- the products are packaged in a plastic envelope (blister) provided a hook or a cutout allowing a hanging presentation to a display rod.
- a plastic envelope blister
- Such a presentation is interesting in the case of products relatively small in size because it allows both in value the product by including in the packaging a cardboard of presentation bearing the mark and explanations of use of the product etc ... without the increase in size being perceived as a disadvantage. On the contrary, this increase in dimensions blister packaging is seen as an enhancement of the product.
- This U shape open upwards, extended by a gutter branch, inverted, covering the top occupies a position diametral.
- the cap (attached to the tank) can thus slide on a display rod or clips through the transverse opening in the top, between one of the branches of the U and the branch folded down in the shape of a gutter.
- the hanging of the product on the display rod is relatively rigid and practically does not allow rotation or pivoting of the product around the stem. Under these conditions, if the tank label is badly oriented relative to the cap, it will appear with difficulty.
- the cap is open at the level of the diametral gutter so that it is possible to access the push valve at inside the cap. Even if the cap is sealed to the tank body by a peripheral plastic film, the push valve nevertheless remains accessible so that inviolability cannot be guaranteed of the tank.
- the object of the present invention is to develop a cap aerosol can for presentation in hanging position at points of sale, not creating additional space, allowing to use all the current packaging means of spray cans and protect the valve when the product is on the scene of sale, while offering great accessibility to the product that remains hooked to his display.
- the invention relates to a reservoir cap in particular an aerosol can of the type defined above, characterized in that that it includes a retractable latching member, integrated above the cap and to which it is connected by a hinge to be foldable flat at the top of the cap or be positioned hooking.
- the cap according to the invention has the same dimensions as that of a known cap, without hooking means. It therefore does not increase neither the dimensions nor the overall dimensions of the aerosol can.
- the extra thickness possibly created by the foldable retractable latching member on the cover is negligible vis-à-vis the tolerances usual dimensions available for the packaging of such products. It will not require any transformation of the packaging means.
- the gripping means for packaging and other operations are strictly the same as those used for bombs equipped with a conventional cap.
- the installation of the aerosol can equipped with such a cap is extremely simple. Just clear the hanging member and suspending the product from the display rod. The product remains perfectly accessible to the consumer who can take it in hand to examine it, read the instructions etc ... without having to remove it from the display.
- the organ hooking is in the form of a flat loop provided with a hooking orifice made in one piece in the material of the cap by being connected to this by a hinge formed by a decrease in thickness of the material.
- the fastening member is in the form of a flat hook made in one piece in the material of the cap by being connected to it by a hinge formed by a decrease thickness of the material.
- This embodiment of the fastening member is particularly advantageous because the cap is, for example, injected with material plastic in one piece with a very simple mold.
- the fastening member is made in the thickness of the top of the cap with a shaped connection hinge connected to the rest of the cap.
- the attachment members according to the invention can be hooks open or closed.
- a tank cap such as an aerosol can includes a body 1 forming the cap itself, with internal ribs 10 and peripheral clipping bosses 11 coming behind the rounded crimp rim, usual from the top of the tank not shown in the drawings.
- the top 12 of the body 1 comprises a hooking member retractable 2 in the form of a loop provided with an orifice 21 of triangular shape, with inclined sides 22, 23 ending in an apex 24 at obtuse angle corresponding to the preferred attachment position on the display rod represented by the TP circle.
- the attachment member is integrated at the top 12 of the cap, connected by a hinge 3 made in the material, the organ attachment 2 and the body 1 being in one piece.
- Hinge 3 is formed by a reduction in the thickness of the material (see Figure 1-2).
- the loop-shaped fastening member 2 is a piece flat. Its outer contour 25 is of overall trapezoidal shape and occupies the largest extension compatible with contour 13 ( Figure 1-5) of the body 1, to fit inside this outline without exceeding it to that the dimensions of the orifice 21 are as large as possible while by having a solid loop.
- the attachment member preferably occupies a position diametral with respect to the top 12 of the body 1 of the cap so the suspended product is in the equilibrium position.
- the top 12 of the cap also has a small boss 14, on the side towards which the hooking member 2 is folded in position retracted, so as to then facilitate the grip for lifting the latching member from its retracted position to its position of attachment, if the natural elasticity of the hinge 3 were not sufficient to lift the hooking member.
- Figure 1-2 which is a side view shows the attachment the cap installed on a TP display rod.
- Figure 1-3 is a side view, cut away, showing the position retracted from the fastening member 2, folded against the top 12 of the body 1 of the cap around the hinge 3. This figure shows that the extra thickness created above the body 1 of the cap by the member hooking 2 folded down is extremely low or even negligible.
- Figure 1-4 is a top view corresponding to the figure 1-1, showing the diametrical arrangement of the fastening member and especially of its hinge 3 connected or forming part of the top 12 of the body 1.
- Figure 1-5 shows the folded position of the organ hooking 2 against the top 12 of the body of the cap 1 (corresponding in the side section view of Figure 1-3).
- Figures 2-1 to 2-5 show a second embodiment a cap according to the invention which corresponds to an alternative embodiment of the fastening member in the form of a flat loop.
- this embodiment relates to a cap whose body 1A comprises the equivalent organs 10A, 11A or identical already described but the top 12A of the cap is different since the attachment member 2A is integrated into the top 12A connected by a 3A hinge.
- This attachment member 2A is here also in the form of flat buckle. But instead of the loop forming the fastening member 2A either on the top 12A of the body 1A, this hooking member 2A is produced in the very thickness of the top 12A ( Figure 2-3) at the time of molding, by being connected to the top 12A by the hinge 3A and by any 121A connection points intended to hold the attachment member 2A in the top plan 12A.
- Figure 2-4 is a top view corresponding to the figure 2-1 showing the opening 122A which remains when the organ hook 2A is in the raised position.
- Figure 2-5 shows that it remains around the opening 122A, on the semicircle "above” the articulation 3A of the fastening member 2, a strip of material 123A sufficient to ensure the peripheral holding of the body 1A of the cap.
- Figures 3-1 to 3-5 show another embodiment a hooking member in the form of a hook or open loop.
- the body 1C of the cap itself also includes organs 10C, 11C and the top 12C carries the organ 2C hooking in the form of a hook or open loop.
- the general shape of this hook is here fairly close to that of loop 2 ( Figure 1).
- the opening 21C of the member 2C is of triangular shape bordered by inclined sides 22C, 23C joining at the top 24C to constitute the preferential hooking position, centered, on the TP rod of the display.
- the hook has a relatively small opening 26C, so that one is forced to deform the upper branch 27 of the hook of the member 2C relative to the base 28C connected by the hinge 3C above 12C.
- the base 28C has a boss 29C.
- This realization gives a resistant hook to support the charge represented by the aerosol can; it prevents the hook and the product to which it belongs, do not risk coming off too easily from the TP rod when the products attached to the TP rod are moved by a customer looking to read the label or review the product being presented.
- This hooking member 3C folds over the top 12C of the body 1C as shown in Figure 3-3.
- the organ 2C hooking is connected to the top 12C by the hinge 3C in position diametral.
- the hooking member 2C fits into the outline 13C of the body 1C so as not to overflow or create additional bulk.
- Figures 4-1 to 4-5 show an alternative embodiment of the hook-shaped hooking member, integrated into the top of the cap as the variant of figures 2-1 to 2-5.
- the 2D attachment member in hook or open loop shape, built into the 12D top of the 1D body of the cap as shown in Figure 4-3.
- the organ 2D hooking is molded in the thickness of the top 12D by being connected by a 3D hinge and remaining hooked by connection points 121D (figure 4-D) which is detached at the first lifting of the organ 2D snap.
- Figure 4-4 shows the opening 122D released by the organ 2D attachment in the raised position.
- This opening leaves enough 123D edge important at the 13D contour of the body of the cap 1D to ensure the solidity of the whole.
- This opening 122D can moreover be closed by a label such as a price tag, affixed on the top 12D after lifting of the 2D fastening member.
- the shape of the 2D fastening member corresponds for the remains to that of the fastening member 2C of Figures 3-1 and following.
- the attachment device in its various embodiments represented, described and conceivable can not only serve to the presentation of a product such as an aerosol can in the hanging position to a display rod or bracket in a sales area, but also serve for storing the product in the hanging position, all the more more that the object is bulky by its height and that its standing position is not always very stable especially when the tank is already very started.
- the cap is made of plastic, if the retractable hook annoys the user, he can easily cut the hook at the hinge.
- the member can be folded down and kept flat on top of the cap by clipping, for example by a small point made in the mass which engages in a small hole in the cap.
