Definitions

  • the invention relates to a deformable small packaging material for flowable products, with a valve-like closure produced in a two-component injection molding, which consists of a dimensionally stable support member and the support member at least partially enveloping outer shell with a flexible, slot-like openings having injection spout.
  • the small package in question is usually made of a suitable plastic so that it can be compressed by hand to push the product through the valve-like closure.
  • the small package When a sufficient amount has exited, the small package is relaxed so that it falls back to its original shape.
  • small packages are preferably tubes, bottles and the like in question.
  • the cap is designed so that the pressure exerted on the product opens the cap and closes it automatically after the release of this pressure.
  • the closure is designed so that the product can be metered out of the small packaging material.
  • products are preferably food in the form of side dishes, such as mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup and the like in question.
  • the dimensionally stable carrier element is placed firmly on the small packaging.
  • the Ausspritztülle the outer shell is then within this support element.
  • the carrier element is fixed either to the neck of the small packaging means or to the closure flap.
  • a closure cap is placed on the small packaging material, which surrounds at least the outer jacket.
  • This cap can be designed as a screw cap, but can also be put on under elastic deformation on the upper neck of the small package means. In these cases, the screw cap is provided with a closable by a flap opening so that the user must open this flap before pushing out of the contents of the small package means.
  • the invention has for its object to make a deformable small packaging of the type described in more detail so that the Ausspritztülle occupies a very small space in the retracted state, and that the transferring into the openings releasing position with little effort is possible.
  • the small packaging should be designed so that you can safely fill different foods in it.
  • the stated object is achieved by the outer shell, based on the retracted Ausspritztülle, adjacent to the Ausspritztülle is meandering shaped. Due to the meandering design of the outer shell adjacent to the Ausspritztülle a relatively small space is required for the retracted Ausspritztülle, while pressure on the small packaging agent, the Ausspritztülle is relatively large volume, since the meandering is resolved.
  • the injection nozzle based on the retracted state, is designed as a pot-shaped collection. This analogously achieves a closure in the manner of a valve. Once the deformable small package deformed by external forces is, the injection spout jumps in the bulged state, so that then the product can flow out.
  • the outer jacket has an inner annular flange which engages in a recess of the carrier element and is connected thereto. Since the carrier element and the outer jacket are produced in the two-component injection molding of plastic, the carrier element is first injected. Through the inner annular flange, an intimate connection of the carrier element with the outer jacket is achieved in the subsequent injection process. It is provided in a further development of this component, that the outer shell adjacent to the inner annular flange has a circumferential ridge which engages in a groove of the support element and is connected thereto. This web also forms an intimate connection with the groove, so that even after prolonged use it is ensured that the outer jacket does not come loose from the carrier element.
  • the carrier element has external threads for receiving a screw cap.
  • the screw cap is provided with a middle flap, so that the deformable small packaging can be closed and that before opening of product, the flap is opened.
  • a material-saving embodiment is achieved if the carrier element is designed to be step-shaped in cross-section, wherein the area receiving the outer jacket is kept smaller in diameter than the region facing the body of the small-pack means.
  • the support element is designed socket-shaped and adjacent to the outer shell has an annular groove which is bounded by two Nutenstegen, and that the support member jumps above the annular groove inwardly. In this case, then ends in a particularly advantageous manner, the outer jacket adjacent to the upper Nutensteg.
  • the slots of the injection spout close like a valve, so that no more product flow can
  • a plurality of angularly spaced and radially extending stabilizing webs are arranged between the injection spout and the annular flange. These stabilizing webs favor the closing of the slots of the injection spout.
  • the stabilizing webs are integrally formed on the injection spout and terminate at a distance from the annular flange.
  • the injection spout consists of a resistant to oils plastic.
  • the small packaging means at least at the shoulder adjacent to the closure of a resistant to oils plastic.
  • the resistant material is a thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV).
  • the Indian FIG. 3 Shutter 10 shown consists of the in the FIG. 1 illustrated dimensionally stable support member 11 and a side facing away from the region of the small packaging means, not shown outer shell 12, in the FIG. 2 is shown as a detail.
  • the closure 10 is produced in the two-component injection molding process, by first the support element 11 and then the outer shell 12 is injected.
  • the carrier element 11 is designed sleeve-shaped.
  • the outer shell 12 associated region of the support member 11 is displaced inwardly and is followed by an annular groove 13, which is bounded by Nutenstege 14, 15 which protrude from the outer surface.
  • the outer shell 12 includes an injection spout 16 having at least one slot-shaped outlet opening.
  • 16 two intersecting slot-shaped openings are provided in the Ausspritztülle. Adjacent to this Ausspritztülle 16 of the outer shell 12 is designed meandering. Thereby, a deformation of this area is possible when pressure is exerted manually on the small packaging material from the outside to push out the contents through the injection spout 16 therethrough.
  • the closure 10 according to the FIGS. 4 to 6 also consists of a support member 11 and an outer shell 12.
  • This closure 10 is also produced by two-component injection molding, wherein first the carrier element 11 and then the outer shell 12 is injected.
  • the region adjacent to the injection nozzle 16 is also meander-shaped.
  • the outer shell 12 is provided with an inner annular flange 17 and fixed to the adjacent surface of the support member 11 due connected to the production.
  • the figure also shows that adjoining and externally adjacent to the inner annular flange 17 a circumferential web 18 is provided, which engages in a corresponding groove of the carrier element 11.
  • the inner annular flange 17 and the circumferential web 18 provide an extremely intimate connection of the support member 11 with the outer shell 12 FIGS.
  • the support member 11 is externally provided with external threads 19 so that a screw cap, not shown, can be detachably mounted on the closure 10. Furthermore, the show FIGS. 4 and 6 in that the carrier element 11 is of stepped design in cross-section, the region facing the injection spout 16 having the smaller diameter.
  • the outer shape shows especially the FIG. 7 , Thereafter, the support member 11 expands still on the side facing away from the injection spout 16 side.
  • the FIGS. 8 and 9 show the spout 16 as a detail. After that, especially the height of the annular flange 17 can be seen. Furthermore, the shows FIG. 9 the outside adjacent and circumferential ridge 18th
  • FIG. 9 shows that on the injection spout 16 radially extending stabilizing webs 20 are formed, which terminate at a distance in front of the annular flange 17. These stabilizing bars cause an immediate and accurate closing of the slots of the injection spout, as soon as the small packaging material is depressurized.
  • At least the injection spout 16, but preferably the entire outer jacket, is made of a plastic which is resistant to oil.
  • a plastic which is resistant to oil.
  • at least the shoulder 10 associated shoulder should be made of the same material.
  • TPV thermoplastic vulcanizate
  • the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment. It is essential that at least the Ausspritztülle 16, but preferably the entire outer shell 12 and possibly also the closure 10 associated shoulder of the small packaging means consist of a resistant to oils plastic.
