Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a closure device for bottles having an externally threaded circular mouth, and comprising a metal screw stopper of the type provided with a lower ring which - in contrast to common security rings for screw" stoppers, which have a very small vertical extension (hereinafter known as “common security rings”), which only just covers a circular undercut provided on the bottle neck - extends significantly downwards (hereinafter known as “prolonged ring”), well beyond said undercut, to hence cover a substantial part of the bottle neck.
  • common security rings common security rings
  • An aluminium closure device of this type (i.e. with a prolonged security ring), known for at least 30 years, is produced by the French company Pechiney and known by the brand name STELVIN or STELCAP.
  • the prolonged security ring (as in the case of common security rings for screw stoppers) form one piece with the screw stopper itself via a series of angularly equidistant connection teeth, obtained by forming coplanar circular slits of equal angular extension in the device, which define said teeth as well as a tear line.
  • DE-A-3030277 discloses a closure device for bottles, which comprises a metal screw stopper with a lower curled ring (the above mentioned common security ring) which is cleanly separated from the actual stopper by a tear line, although not shown, and a capsule of plastic material covering the whole stopper (including said curled ring), the capsule being obtained from an elastic film which is previously stretched, then forced to be fit onto the stopper and finally left free so as to adhere to the whole stopper.
  • a closure device disclosed in US-A-5292018 comprises a simple screw stopper (without security ring) and a sleeve of heat-shrinkable material, covering the stopper and the adjacent portion of the relevant bottle, among the sleeve and both the stopper and bottle being provided at least, one strip of adhesive material.
  • a person wishing to tamper with the said closure device for example to alter the bottle contents or to abusively refill an already emptied bottle (possible with a less valuable liquid or even with a noxious product), the person could make the two sets of lacerated tooth fragments (one on the ring and one on the actual stopper) coincide, this being easily achieved by suitably rotating the ring after fully tightening the stopper. In this case in unscrewing the stopper, an inattentive consumer would probably not notice that the bottle has been tampered with.
  • the cup-shaped metal element obtained in this manner (already provided with knurling facilitating unscrewing, with cuts forming the tearable teeth, and with an upper groove enabling the internal seal gasket to be applied) is then drawn over the end of the relative bottle with externally threaded mouth and then, using conventional threading techniques, is made to adhere to the bottle both by forming on the stopper a thread matching that of the mouth, and by making the prolonged ring adhere to the undercut and to the relative part of the bottle neck.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a closure device, comprising a screw stopper with prolonged ring, which makes any tampering evident
  • Another object is to provide a closure device of the aforesaid type which is provided with decorations at least on its outer lateral surface, but also if required on the upper surface of the stopper, at a cost decidedly less than that in the case of known closure devices of this type; or, in other words, which has a commercially acceptable cost even if the number of pieces to be produced is not particularly high.
  • this fixing between the capsule or tubular element and the metal stopper is obtained by using a suitable glue.
  • a suitable glue for example means that if the capsule or tubular element is removed, residues of glue or even of the capsule or tubular element remain, so demonstrating tampering.
  • the second aforesaid object is attained by the closure device of the present invention, wherein the outer surface of the capsule or tubular element presents required colorations and/or writings and/or brand names and/or designs and or reliefs, i.e. the aforesaid "decorations".
  • the aforespecified closure device comprises one piece (the capsule or tubular element of heat-shrinkable plastic) more than the traditional metal stopper with a prolonged ring carrying "decorations" on its outer surface
  • the fact that it is the added capsule or tubular element which carries these "decorations” means that production costs can be significantly reduced, so making the device of the present invention also competitive for production runs comprising a relatively small number of pieces.
  • the formation of "decorations" on a plastic capsule or tubular element is much less costly than in the case of traditional "decorated" metal screw stoppers with a prolonged ring.
  • the device of the invention offers maximum guarantee against tampering (as previously explained).
  • a unit is produced consisting of the deep-drawn metal element of inverted cup-shaped - which (after threading) gives rise to the metal screw stopper with prolonged ring - and a capsule or tubular element of heat-shrinkable plastic previously glued to the deep-drawn metal element both in correspondence with the actual stopper and in correspondence with the prolonged ring - with the capsule or tubular element possibly presenting the required "decorations" - already mounted on the deep-drawn metal element.
  • the closure device of the present invention is formed starting from a circular metal sheet (for example of aluminium) of suitable diameter, which is then deep-drawn in traditional manner to obtain an element of inverted cup-shaped such as that indicated by 10 in Figure 1 , already presenting coplanar circular cuts to define conventional tearable teeth 18 as well as the above mentioned tear line.
  • a circular metal sheet for example of aluminium
  • an externally threaded mouth such as that the neck 12 of which is shown in vertical cross-section in Figure 3
  • conventional threading or screwing techniques are used to give rise to a metal screw stopper with a prolonged ring, this combination being indicated by 14 in said figure.
  • the thread is formed in the actual stopper (indicated by 16) and this latter is made to adhere to the annular undercut 24 ( Figure 3 ) with which standard bottles with a screw stopper are provided, the ring 20 extending considerably downwards (as in the case of the said screw closure device known by the brand name STELVIN or STELCAP) and adhering to the bottle neck 12.
  • the ring 20 is case of the said screw closure device known by the brand name STELVIN or STELCAP) and adhering to the bottle neck 12.
  • the ring 20 is consequently connected to the actual stopper 16 by conventional angularly equidistant teeth (not shown in detail in the figures for simplicity, given that they are universally known), to be torn when the actual stopper 16 is unscrewed.
  • the deep-drawn element 10 can be of any colour and hence "featureless”, however if considered opportune the circular starting sheet from which it is obtained can be "decorated” (in the previously specified sense), in particular limited to its central part which is to become the upper circular surface 22 ( Figure 1 ) firstly of the deep-drawn element 10 and then of the stopper 16 (especially if the solution of Figure 5 is used, as will be seen hereinafter).
  • a plastic capsule is provided, shown in its heat-shrunk condition and indicated by 26, which in this specific case adheres to the entire outer surface (including the circular upper surface) of the actual stopper 16 and of the prolonged ring 20, this latter because the plastic capsule 26 is provided with a so-called circular "endpiece" 28, which however could also be lacking.
  • the capsule 26 is as in Figure 2 , where it is indicated by 30, this figure showing that it comprises a slightly downwardly flared skirt 32 with its upper edge slightly turned to enable the endpiece 28 to be fixed to it.
  • the tubular element 30A could be used to obtain the closure device shown in Figure 5 , from which it can be seen that the tubular element 26A (after final heat shrinkage) covers only the lateral surface of the stopper-ring combination 14, the tubular element 26A not even reaching the upper edge of the stopper 16.
  • a unit is formed composed of the deep-drawn element 10 on which the capsule 30 or tubular element 30A is superposed and then heat-shrunk, the two parts of this unit being glued together in at least one point in correspondence with the actual screw stopper 16 and in at least one point in correspondence with the prolonged ring 20, to prevent (as security against tampering) their wrongful separation without leaving traces.
  • the bottler, on receiving this unit can conveniently use said conventional automatic high productivity machines to obtain the device of the present invention.
  • Variations of the aforedescribed closure device can be produced.
  • the capsule 26 or tubular element 26A can stop slightly above the lower edge of the prolonged ring 20; or the capsule or tubular element can pass beyond this lower edge, to consequently make contact with the relative part of the bottle neck.
  • the capsule 26 or tubular element 26A (as in the case of common capsules or common tubular elements of heat-shrinkable plastic) could be made difficult to tear without using for example a knife or other implement.
  • plastic capsules or tubular elements can be used provided with means for facilitating their tearing and indicating any tampering, or presenting at least one weakened region (in particular because of the presence of perforations or through slits), so that the capsule or tubular element tears easily in these regions on unscrewing the screw stopper, so making bottle tampering evident.
  • the STELVIN or STELCAP closure device must be produced in high quantity in order to achieve a commercially acceptable cost
  • the device of the present invention has an acceptable cost even if produced in considerably lesser quantity, hence even relatively small bottlers are able to use it.
