Definitions

  • This invention relates to a multi-part closure device made of plastic, consisting of closure cap, lower part and not continuously circular cutting ring as a central element, and which can be attached above a desired opening point of a closed container or on a bottle neck.
  • containers For storage of flowable media, various containers are available in the market, in which before opening a membrane, film or the packaging wall itself must be pounded before the liquid medium can be removed from the container.
  • Such containers may be soft packaging made of multilayer cardboard or films, to which a closure device is glued or welded. But it can also be bottles with a threaded or Aufschnappstutzen, in which a film on top of the neck closes the bottle, and then this film must be cut.
  • Typical closure devices for such types of packaging have a lower part with a cylindrical spout and external thread and a lower edge flange for attachment to the soft pack
  • the closure lid Before the contents can be removed from the container, the closure lid must be unscrewed from the base to the container wall in the area To cut through the pouring spout.
  • the opening of the container wall at the Sollö Stammsstelle can be done by finger pressure on the integrated piercing, but has the disadvantage that the Ausgiesseigenschaften such closures are bad and that the risk of contamination of the liquid is large because the finger comes into contact with the liquid.
  • Another type of opening of the container wall is that a piercer is pushed down through the packaging material with the aid of the closure cap.
  • the closure must be complete first are turned down to move down the piercer mounted in the spout of the base, whereby the soft package is opened.
  • the cap In order to pour out the liquid content, in a third step, the cap must be completely unscrewed.
  • This opening mechanism has not enforced in practice because it is too complicated to handle.
  • piercers are known which cooperate interactively with a closure cap in such a way that, when the screw cap is unscrewed, the piercer is simultaneously moved in such a way that it is conveyed downwards and pierces the packaging wall. The severed part of the package wall sticks to the piercer because it has to be adhered to the package wall. The piercer itself remains in the cap and is also transported out when opening. 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.
  • Soft packagings have a pre-punched target opening point in the area of the puncture, so that the piercer enables complete transection with little effort.
  • This delicate stamping is often carried out too small, whereby the force required to apply the piercing, is very large.
  • the thread on the cylindrical base and on the inner surface of the shell wall of the cap must strong, ie be equipped with large thread depth, which requires a more stable construction with increased wall thickness and thus increased material requirements.
  • the force required for the first actuation of the closure cap is therefore so great because the entire force for the translational axial movement of the penetrator is applied only by the rotational movement of the closure cap.
  • the internal thread on the closure neck is softened.
  • the piercer is first pressed by elements which are mounted at the bottom of the lid of the cap when it is screwed down so that a cutting member pierces an underlying film and then the piercing is still rotated. Until the rotation is completed and the film Meanwhile, the cap has unscrewed from the nozzle thread and can be removed.
  • the cap of the piercer because yes presses the cap with the elements on its underside of the lid when screwing on the piercing, initially pushed a bit further down. This requires a corresponding effort when first screwing the closure and is objected to by the consumer as unpleasant.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide on the one hand a closure device in which the force for opening is lower, and on the other hand, the object of the invention, a very accurate, sharp, knife-like cutting of the soft pack or film on a container neck in the area To guarantee the target opening point, and further it is an object of the invention, at any time to guarantee a regular, laminar pouring behavior of the liquid ingredient. Finally, it is an object of the invention, with such a closure device, to be able to meter a separate substance, also a sensitive substance, into a container contents by opening.

  • the inner cap cap 27 is an axially extending driving cam 16, which corresponds in its geometry with the recess 6 on the cutting ring 1, said indentation 6 interrupts the otherwise circular cutting ring 1, so that one of a non-circular circular cutting ring 1 can speak.
  • the driving cam 16 engages positively in the indentation 6 and thus lies with its inner side against the outer wall 30 of the cutting ring 1.
  • the driver cam 16 can also act within the cylindrical cutting ring 1 against its inner wall 8 as a stop on the indentation 6.
  • the core of the closure device according to the invention is the cutting ring 1, which in FIG. 2 is shown in a perspective view seen obliquely from below.
  • the cylindrical cutting ring 1 is open at the top and bottom in the axial direction and has, as an important feature, a recess 6 which extends in the axial direction over the entire height of the cutting ring 1. At this point it interrupts the cutting ring so that it is not completely circular.
  • This indentation 6 forms the later discharge of the contents of the package a ventilation channel 26 and it cooperates with the driving cam 16 such that it acts either as a driver when it engages in the recess 6, or as a stop when the driving cam 16 from the inside of the ring 1 abuts the indentation 6.
  • the cylindrical cutting ring 1 has, as a further important feature, a sharp cutting edge 4, which forms an obtuse angle with the lower edge 29 of the cutting ring 1. On the function of the cutting edge 4 and the subsequent thereto in the horizontal direction guide grooves 7 will be discussed below.

  • the flange 10 may also be formed flat, so that the attachment either by welding or sticking to the outside or inside of a soft pack, in the latter case, the lower part 3 passes through the existing opening from below , In these two variants, a separate membrane or foil is then provided which is to be cut.
  • the lower part 3 can also be an integral part of the container. In this case, the lower part 3 thus corresponds to a correspondingly designed container neck, for example a bottle.
  • the cylindrical neck 9 has on its outer side an external thread 12 which cooperates with the internal thread 18 of the closure cap 2, so that the cylinder neck 9 sealingly closed with the cap 2 and can also be opened again by the consumer on the jacket wall 17 rotates.
  • the driver cam 16 acts on the non-continuous circular cutting ring 1 in such a way that it is rotated downward in a helical movement.
  • the guide segments 5 slide on the existing on the cylindrical inner wall 14 guide cam portions 13, which is not a continuous, continuous thread, whereby the friction is greatly reduced.
  • this guide curve sections 13 Another advantage of this guide curve sections 13 is that the lower part 3 can be removed from the mold with offset cores in an injection mold, whereby sharp edges and thus a more accurate fit with the cutting ring 1 can be realized on the guide curve sections 13, since the edges are not as in other solutions be pulled long by compulsory removal.
  • FIG. 4 are important features of the cutting ring 1 shown in a perspective detail view obliquely from below.
  • the axial indentation 6 illustrates in this illustration their two areas of action, namely the one attack respectively. Mitcalmings and a ventilation duct 26 during the pouring of the contents of a with this closure device equipped and opened packaging.
  • the indentation 6 also has the advantage that when scanning in the assembly process always a unique position of the ring 1 is given
  • FIG. 5 shows the cutter ring 1 horizontally seen from the side with a detailed view of the sharp cutting edge 4.
  • the cutting edge 4 is solved differently than in known systems by the cutting angle 21 is formed greater than 90 °, which guarantees an extremely stable cutting process.
  • the cutting ring 1 is moved down in a helical manner by means of the driving cam 16.
  • the lowest, acute corner edge 31 scratching a packaging material or a film and dives with increasing rotation in the packaging material or the film and pierces this or the same.
  • the sharp edge 4 moves along the packaging material or the film, which means a significant force reduction during the opening process, in contrast to prior art solutions, because it does not need a particularly large in any phase of the cutting process Force even a particularly high torque to be built.
  • the cutting edge 4 descending in a helical motion is comparable to a traveling knife and causes the sharp edge 4 to cut continuously with a new, fresh and therefore sharp spot the packaging material or the film easily and with little force, thereby producing a coarse Fanning the interface is avoided and a clean cut results.
  • the inventive cutting system causes an overall greatly reduced effort when opening, ie when cutting a Packungsstoffes or a film, wherein the splice of a glued on a composite pack of brick carton closure device is considerably less burdened and consequently the risk of detachment of the same from the pack is minimized.
  • the closure device according to the invention can be realized as a stable, but lighter construction with reduced wall thicknesses, which corresponds to a saving of 1 to 3 grams per unit. At a production of 10 6 - 10 9 Each year, this results in material savings in the size of 1 - 3,000 tonnes of plastic.
  • the external thread 12 of the spout 9 is designed only as a fine thread, because compared to solutions of the prior art, the axially occurring forces in the advance of the not quite circular cutting ring 1 does not have to be absorbed by the cap 2 and thus the threads 12, 18 remain practically unloaded between the cap 2 and the lower part 3.

  • the interlocking means is designed as a simple internal thread, which cooperates with the external thread 12 present on the cylindrical spout 9.
  • the force exerted on the guarantee strip force is not added in the inventive device with the force acting on the cutting ring 1 with indentation 6, which is why the interlocking means 12, 18, as already mentioned, can also be configured as a fine thread, so that the cap 2 can bemmrammt to the spout 9, without a rotational movement must be performed.
