L'invention va maintenant être décrite en liaison avec les
Cette partie inférieure est solidaire grâce à une charnière souple (C,
Les parties inférieure (I) et supérieure (S) du couvercle de fermeture de pots alimentaires possèdent, en leur côté diamétralement opposé à la charnière (C) les liant l'une à l'autre, respectivement la partie femelle (F,
La partie inférieure (I) du couvercle de fermeture de pots alimentaires possède sur son bord externe, de part et d'autre de l'axe formé par la charnière souple et le système de fermeture, deux axes de rotation (R,
L'anse est de dimension suffisante par rapport au diamètre de la partie inférieure du couvercle pour permettre lorsqu'elle est rabattue vers le système de fermeture inviolable, la protection du système de fermeture du couvercle (F, M,
Le couvercle de fermeture de pots alimentaires possède une cuillère intégrée (Q), par exemple constituée d'un manche en forme de tige reliée à une de ses extrémités à une cavité en forme de demi-boule creuse. Selon le type d'aliment contenu dans le pot que le couvercle est destiné à recouvrir, la cuillère pourra évidemment avoir diverses formes adaptées à la saisie et/ou au dosage de l'aliment. La cuillère (Q) est initialement fixée par une extrémité de son manche sur la partie inférieure (I) du couvercle par de petites pattes amovibles sécables (Q1,
La surface externe de la partie supérieure (S) du couvercle de fermeture de pots alimentaires possède une forme particulière avec notamment sur sa périphérie un rainurage (S2) circulaire entier ou partiel de diamètre correspondant au diamètre du bord interne (I2) de la partie inférieure permettant l'empilement des couvercles fermés les uns sur les autres ou ouverts les uns sur les autres en quinconce. La surface externe de la partie supérieure du couvercle de fermeture de pots alimentaires possède également un renfoncement circulaire (S3,
On comprend que l'on a ainsi réalisé un couvercle de fermeture de pots alimentaires fabriqué en une seule opération de moulage avec sa cuillère et sa anse. Ce couvercle présente l'avantage de permettre un emboîtement automatique, hermétique et inviolable du couvercle sur le pot, un port aisé du pot grâce à une anse sur le couvercle permettant également une protection du système de fermeture. Lors du processus de fabrication entre la sortie d'usine de moulage plastique et de l'usine alimentaire d'emballage, la forme spécifique du couvercle permet un empilement aisé des couvercles, soit fermés les uns sur les autres soit ouverts et en quinconce, la partie inférieure de l'un au-dessous de la partie supérieure d'un autre couvercle. La forme spécifique de la surface supérieure du couvercle permet également un empilement aisé des pots remplis munis de leurs couvercles. La cuillère intégrée (Q) permet une manipulation de l'aliment et peut être fixée dans le couvercle après une première utilisation, ceci sans contact du manche avec l'aliment pour éviter toute contamination de l'aliment par des germes portés par l'utilisateur.It will be understood that a lid for closing food jars made in a single molding operation with its spoon and handle has thus been made. This lid has the advantage of allowing an automatic nesting, hermetic and inviolable lid on the pot, easy port of the pot thanks to a handle on the cover also for protection of the closure system. During the manufacturing process between the plastic molding plant outlet and the packaging food factory, the specific shape of the lid allows for easy stacking of the covers, either closed on top of one another or open and staggered. lower part of one below the top of another lid. The specific shape of the top surface of the lid also allows easy stacking of filled jars with their lids. The integrated spoon (Q) allows handling of the food and can be fixed in the lid after a first use, this without contact of the handle with the food to prevent contamination of the food by germs worn by the user .
