  • the lid (1) comprises an improved system shuttering of the spout comprising a very limited number of parts for to realize the kinematics of opening and closing of the outlet orifice.
  • a closure element (12) substantially flattened for closing the outlet orifice and means (20, 21) for driving this element closing (12) in translation in said opening plane.
  • Ways for driving in translation comprise at least one traction rod (21) connected by fastening means (13) to the closure element (2) and a means pusher (20) adapted to drive said rod (21) in the direction of the opening.
  • This last comprises a first end portion (212) integral with removable push means (20), as shown in Figures 1 and 3.
  • This pusher means (20) may consist of a trigger or control lever equivalent, articulated for example on a handle molded with the body of the cover (17).
  • the outlet orifice of the fluid product is located at the edge of the lid (1), while the element pusher (20) is articulated in a handle secured to the lid (1) located at the opposite of the outlet orifice and a needle-shaped element of the element pusher (20) abuts a ventilation opening provided in the lid (1). This ventilation opening makes it possible to balance the pressures between the interior and the outside of the container (6).
  • rod can designate any monobloc link element traction movement on the closure element (12).
  • Fixing means (13) connecting the rod (21) to the closure element (12) can be made during molding of the closure member (12).
  • the latter consists for example in a closure zipper provided on the top with means for anchoring one or several traction rods (21).
  • the pull rod (21) can be single and comprise a U-shaped curved intermediate portion (210) connected to the closure element (12) by the fastening means (13).
  • the two branches of the single rod are each integral with the pusher means (20) to their end (212).
  • Each end portion of the pull rod is example hook-shaped and secured to a transverse portion (200) of the pusher element (20).
  • the U-shaped stem can be connected to the element of closure (12) by its middle portion (210) with cams or a system similar anchorage.
  • several traction rods substantially parallel can replace the U-shaped pull rod (21).
  • the pull rod (21) is of the element type binding in wire, made for example of rigid plastic material, metal or alloy or any other material capable of undergoing tensile stresses.
  • the body of cover (17) comprises at least one said support support (16) disposed transversely to the pull rod (21) for hooking a first end of an elastic member (22) such as a tension spring.
  • the second end of this elastic element (22) is attached to a means attaching the pull rod (21) disposed on the side of the first portion end (212) of the rod (21) relative to the location of the support of recall (16).
  • the pull rod (21) comprises a means fastener adapted to fix the second end of the elastic element (22) to that this elastic element biases the traction rod (21) in one direction parallel to the plane of opening towards the return support (16).
  • These supports (16) can be two in number and consist of one-piece bridges with the cover body (17).
  • the lid body (17) comprises two transverse return supports (16) arranged parallel to the opening plane for fixing each elastic member (22) spring-type each attached to a means for attaching a rod or portion of separate pull rod.
  • the rod U-shaped traction device (21) comprises on each of its branches a intermediate portion curved in a loop (211) to form this attachment means for hanging the elastic member (22).
  • a fastening means in the form of a fold formed on the rod (21) or rod portion ensuring the attachment of the elastic element (22).
  • the return supports (16) are raised relative to the plane opening and arranged at a determined height level which is sufficient for that the pull rod (21) is movable between this height level and the plane opening.
  • the pull rod (21) can be form of circumflex accent.

  • the fact that the transverse return supports (16) for hanging the springs are in contact with the connecting element constituted by the pull rod (21), allows to increase the support force of the closing zipper on the spout. This results in improved sealing in this position.
  • the lid body (17) is adapted for containers (6) having a cylindrical upper portion provided with a nesting crown (64) or crimping bead.
  • the clamping means are arranged on a lower border forming a flange annular (15) of the lid body (17) for clipping to the crown interlocking (64) of the container to be covered.
  • the clamping means comprise at least two elastic locking fingers (32) capable of coming automatically resting against the annular surface of the crown when the body of the lid (17) is positioned on the container (6).
  • These fingers of blocking are formed integrally with the annular flange (15), as shown in Figure 1. They are regularly spaced one of the others on the circumference of the lid (1).
  • the clamping means comprise, in one embodiment preferred embodiment of the invention, four equidistant fingers (32) each forming a Y whose one of the branches is shortened so as to support both the upper cylindrical portion of the container (6) and on the underside of the crown interlocking (64).
  • each finger of blocking device (32) has a declivity surface (34) which is supported by the interlocking crown (64) when the cover (1) is placed on the container (6).
  • the contact between the surface of declivity (54) of the locking finger (32) and the crown (64) causes a away from the finger (32) towards the outside, the lid (1) being pressed on the top of the container (6).
  • Each locking pin (32) further comprises an abutment surface (36) immediately above the declivity surface (34).
  • this abutment surface (36) is placed under the crown (64), as shown in Figure 5. Therefore, when the lid (1) is pressed on the container (6), the elastic return of the locking fingers (32) induces a reconciliation of the finger (32) against the container (6) while the abutment surface is engaged against the crown (64), thus ensuring a fixation of the cover (1).
  • each locking pin includes a release lever (31) which is for example sufficiently long to exceed the level of the annular flange (15).
  • This branch of the Y can exceed any plan or substantially flat and horizontal surface of the body of cover (17), sufficiently unobstructed for a user to easily access to the lever (31) thus formed.
  • Radial pressure on the release lever (31), exerted to the outside, allows therefore to disengage the surface of abutment (36) of the nesting crown (64). Removal of the lid (1) is thus greatly facilitated.
  • this type of lock cover (1) has the advantage of being able to fit on boxes existing ones with varying dimensions.
  • the locking fingers (32) are of one-piece construction with the annular rim (15). He must however, be aware that the annular flange is optional.
  • the lid according to the invention can be adapted to a very wide variety of containers, for example water-based pots that do not require agitation. The principle of dosage allowed by the lid of Figure 3 provides great accuracy.
  • One of the advantages of the invention is to provide a cover (1) with shutter system simple design and equipped with elastic elements (22) such as springs working only in traction and not in torsion.
