Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of functional inserts to be placed in the necks of containers in order to provide said container with a particular function, namely typically a spout function, or even a non-filling function.
- the invention further relates to closure caps comprising this type of insert.
- closure caps provided with sealing inserts, as well as these same capsules further comprising functional inserts by virtue of a reversible assembly, so that the functional insert can be placed simultaneously in the neck of the bottle, and the closure cap on the neck.
- French application No. 99 14016 in the name of the applicant discloses a stopper capsule comprising a functional insert which forms a pourer.
- French application No 00 00397 in the name of the applicant discloses a closure cap comprising a functional insert with anti-filling function.
- the functional inserts of the state of the art generally comprise circular fins ensuring, taking into account their flexibility, the watertight fixing of the inserts in the neck.
- the functional inserts can be fixed by force fitting the insert into the neck, which poses no problem when the functional insert is fixed apart, and when it is adapted to a predetermined neck, and particularly when the neck has a profile called "A", that is to say with a significant constriction in the axial direction from bottom to top, so that the insert, once placed by force in the neck can not easily come out of the neck.
- the fixing of the inserts poses problems when the neck has a so-called "V" profile, that is to say with a significant expansion in the axial direction from bottom to top, so that there is a risk to see the insert, once placed by force in the neck, come out of the neck.
- This risk is all the greater when the necks have dimensional irregularities, or when the functional insert is fixed to the neck at the same time as the closure cap. Indeed, in the latter case, it is the standard capping equipment that is used, and the capping therefore does not include a specific step of assembly by force of the functional insert in the neck.
- the invention therefore aims to obtain a good fixing of the functional insert to a neck, whatever the type of profile of the neck, whether it is "A", "V" or whether it is straight, with in addition, greater tolerances on the internal dimensions of the necks, and this even when the functional insert is associated with a closure cap, and is fixed to the neck during the capping of the neck as if the closure cap did not include d 'functional insert.
- the functional insert typically made of plastic, for a container neck, typically a glass bottle, comprises a body intended to be introduced. in said neck, said body carrying on its outer surface at least one flexible fin intended to form a tight junction with said neck when said functional insert is introduced into said neck, and a functional element, and is characterized in that: a) said functional insert comprises an adhesive typically carried by said fin on its upper surface and / or by said outer surface of said body, said adhesive being chosen to adhere to said neck, b) said adhesive is a typically permanent adhesive, chosen in consistency or viscosity so that '' it only flows under stress, stress typically corresponding to a compression of said adhesive between said fin and said body when, said functional insert being introduced into said neck, said fin folds up, and chosen in content or quantity so that said adhesive thus comes in contact with said neck, so as to secure said body to said neck by an area adhesive contact and to prevent an axial displacement upwards of said functional insert under an axial stress.
- the invention is based on the combination of several means:
- the situation changes completely in industrial production when they accumulate, sometimes unfavorably, the manufacturing tolerances both on the neck and on the functional insert, any industrial part being situated in a more or less wide dimensional range, with a relatively wide range with regard to glass necks given the technology specific to this material.
- the invention therefore makes it possible to obtain industrially inserts integral with the necks, despite the tolerances on the neck and on the insert, even when these tolerances are unfavorable, for example in the case of an insert with minimum dimensions and a neck with maximum dimensions.
- the invention solves the problem of the variety of profiles of the necks, typically in the shape of an "A" - a case favorable to the fixing of the functional insert, or in the shape of a "V” or slightly flared - case unfavorable for fixing the functional insert.
- the invention constitutes a solution not based on a "geometric” cooperation between parts to be joined together, but based on adhesion, with a “chemical” cooperation between these parts, which therefore makes it possible to overcome the precise shape of the neck.
- the invention is also of great interest because the problems posed are resolved essentially upstream, at the manufacturer of inserts, and not downstream, for example in cellars where the wines are packaged in bottles, bottles which are then capped. finally encapsulated, so that the capping methods and devices can remain possibly unchanged when the functional inserts according to the invention are used.
- Figures 1 to 3 show, for the sake of simplification, only the body (30) of the functional insert (3) devoid of its functional element (6,7).
- Figure 2 is similar to the left part of Figure 1. It differs in that the neck is of the "V" type because it forms an open angle ⁇ .
- Figure 3 is similar to the right part of Figure 1. It differs in that the functional insert (3) comprises 3 fins (31) and in that the adhesive (5) is placed in the limited annular groove by two adjacent fins and by the external surface of the body (30) lying between these two fins.
- FIG. 4 illustrates the case of a capsule (1) provided with sealing (2) and functional (3) inserts of the irreplaceable type (7), the latter being inserted in a threaded neck (4).
- Figures 5a to 7 illustrate the case of a capsule (1) with a functional insert (3) of the pouring type (6).
- said body (30), typically cylindrical can comprise at least two fins (31), said adhesive (5) being typically placed between the two fins, or on each of them. Indeed, the presence of several fins allows simultaneously to have a better seal, and an axial centering of the body (30) relative to the neck (4).
- said adhesive (5) can form a crown, so as to form a circular or annular contact area over the entire inner circumference of the neck.
- said adhesive (5) can be a permanent adhesive of the "hot-melt" type.
- the adhesive (5) may optionally be an activatable or crosslinkable adhesive, typically by supplying energy, once said insert has been placed in said neck.
- This adhesive may include a hardener or activator.
- Said adhesive (5) can also typically be in the form of microbeads which release said adhesive when said functional insert (3) is placed in said neck, or is an activatable adhesive when said functional insert (3) is placed in said neck.
- said functional element can form a pourer (6).
- said functional element can form an irreplaceable device (7) or an anti-fraud device.
- Another object of the invention consists of a capsule (1), typically a closure capsule, comprising a shell (11) provided with a skirt (1 10) and a sealing insert (2), possibly threaded, integral with said shell (1 1), and a functional insert (3) according to the invention, said sealing insert (2) or said shell (1 1), and said insert functional (3) comprising reversible securing means (20, 32), typically by reversible snap-fastening.
- a capsule (1) typically a closure capsule, comprising a shell (11) provided with a skirt (1 10) and a sealing insert (2), possibly threaded, integral with said shell (1 1), and a functional insert (3) according to the invention, said sealing insert (2) or said shell (1 1), and said insert functional (3) comprising reversible securing means (20, 32), typically by reversible snap-fastening.
- Another object of the invention is constituted by a method of manufacturing a capsule according to the invention in which: a) provision is made for said functional insert (3), said adhesive (5) and said closure cap (1) typically provided with said sealing insert (2), b) depositing or applying said adhesive (5) on said functional insert (3), c) then securing said functional insert (3) to said sealing insert (2) or to said shell (11), so that said adhesive (5) is protected from any external contact by the skirt (110) of said shell, and thus said capsule (1) can be handled without risk of damage .
- Another object of the invention consists of the use of a functional insert (3) and / or a capsule (1) comprising said functional insert according to the invention, to secure any type of functional element (6, 7) to any type of neck (4), with a profile either straight, or "A” or “V", whatever its diameter can range from 18 mm to 45 mm, and typically close to 30 mm.
- FIG. 4 illustrates the case of a functional insert (3) of the irreplaceable type (7) inserted in a neck (4) with thread (41).
- This functional insert (3) was inserted with a closure capsule (1) comprising a shell (1 1) and a sealing insert (2), the capsule being shown screwed and crimped by irreversible deformation (12) under the ring. (42) from the neck.
- This sealing insert comprises a head (21), a threaded skirt (22), and a reversible assembly means (20) cooperating with the flexible lip (60) forming the reversible assembly means (32) of the functional insert (3).
- the functional insert (3) comprises 3 fins (31), as in the case of FIG. 3, and an irreplaceable device (7) comprising a ball (70) movable between a stop grid (71) and a support ( 72) with a central opening.
- Figures 5a to 7 illustrate the case of a functional insert (3) of the pouring type (6).
- Figure 5a is a side view of the functional insert (3) comprising said adhesive (5) between two fins
- Figure 5b is a sectional view
- FIG. 5 c is a view of the sealing insert (2) provided with a reversible assembly crown (20) intended to cooperate by reversible snap-fastening with the flange (32) of the functional insert (3).
- FIG. 6 represents, in straight half-section, the assembly constituted by the reversible assembly of the closure capsule (1) consisting of a shell, typically metallic (1 1) with a skirt (110) and a head ( 1 1 1) integral with a sealing insert (2), and the functional insert (3,6).
- Figure 7 shows, but in left half-section, the assembly of Figure 6 after crimping the capsule on a threaded neck.
- aluminum shells (11) were first manufactured, by stamping, sealing inserts (2) and functional inserts (3) with 3 fins, made of PE or PP according to the tests, by molding (injection).
- a commercial hot-melt type adhesive was supplied, Plastoflex® 9092 or 91 17 from the company Paramelt. Then, using a heated nozzle gun, applied a bead of adhesive between the two upper fins by rotating the insert opposite the fixed nozzle. According to the tests, the quantities deposited varied from 0.01 to 0.5 g per insert. Finally, the functional inserts loaded with adhesive (5) were assembled in the sealing inserts (2) fixed to the shells (1 1), so as to obtain closure caps (1) according to the invention.
- the invention economically solves all of the problems posed. It also opens the way to a new family of products which can bring increased security to the consumer, in particular in the case where the adhesive used hardens and irreversibly secures the functional insert to the neck and in the case where this functional insert is irreplaceable type.
