By repeatedly opening and closing the cap can easily take place multiple contamination of the contents.
  • the assembly of this device is delicate and expensive. Since the piercing must be glued to the container wall, the correct dosage of the adhesive is crucial for the successful first opening of the packaging material.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de fermeture en plastique qui comprend une partie inférieure, un bouchon de fermeture et une bague coupante qui peut se déplacer suivant un mouvement hélicoïdal dans la tubulure de la partie inférieure. Selon l'invention, lors d'un mouvement de dévisage du bouchon de fermeture, l'ergot d'entraînement (16) présent axialement dans le bouchon de fermeture, agit sur la bague coupante de forme circulaire discontinue qui perfore et découpe ainsi le récipient en effectuant un mouvement de coupe hélicoïdal. La bague coupante forme une rainure d'aération (6) qui coopère avec l'ergot d'entraînement (16). Lorsque l'on fait tourner le bouchon de fermeture, la bague coupante de forme circulaire discontinue qui présente sur son côté inférieur une arête coupante qui forme un angle obtus avec son bord inférieur, assure le guidage d'un mouvement de coupe hélicoïdal de manière analogue au déplacement d'une lame, ce qui permet à la paroi du récipient d'être découpée aisément avec l'application d'une force minimale, grâce au fait que l'emplacement coupant qui est appliqué au matériau du récipient, se renouvelle sans cesse, et permet d'éviter un fibrage grossier. Lors du déversement du contenu, la cavité (6) formée sur la bague coupante de forme circulaire discontinue sert de canal d'aération (26), ce qui permet un déversement extrêmement homogène sans glougloutement.
