Definitions
- the invention relates to a plug for a container, which preferably has a circular cylindrical shape with or without container neck and is provided in particular for receiving tablets, dragees or other substances, for example in powder or granular form.
- the plug engages the container with an annular projection, which may have a bulging shape in cross-section on the outside, so that it can be removed from the container only by applying a force directed away from the container.
- the plug also has a circular bottom portion integral with the annular shoulder which closes the container opening, and a molded head portion which projects beyond the container and which is slidably mounted in a slide which is advanceable beyond the container rim and forms a lever in this position with which the plug can be removed from the container.
- a plug in the head portion of such a slider is arranged.
- This slider has a recessed grip in the top into which a user engages with a finger to advance the slider beyond the edge of the container.
- the slider is held in the retracted initial position by a projection on the bottom portion of the plug over which the slider can slide away without significant effort.
- the recessed grip can attract the interest of a small child, pushing the slider out of the head section and then lifting the plug off the container.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a stopper of the type considered, which is child resistant, ie in which it is practically guaranteed that small children can not remove the stopper from the associated container, so they do not have access to the potentially health-threatening container contents receive.
- the invention provides that the slide against the force of a spring device in a direction over the edge of the container can be advanced, and that the slider returns to its release by the spring force in the retracted initial state.
- the plug can only be removed from the container by means of the pushed over the edge of the container slide.
- the slider has peripheral portions at both axial ends which fit smoothly into the preferably frusto-conical edge of the head portion of the plug.
- the rear in the feed direction of the slider peripheral portion of the slider forms the force application surface to the feed.
- the edge of the head section may for example also have a cylindrical shape.
- the head portion of the plug contains two mutually spaced, preferably mirror image identical side portions which are interconnected by a top wall and define together with this and the bottom wall of the plug a channel through which the slider extends. It is expediently not only the rear edge portion of the slide, but also a portion of its top free, while the upper wall of the plug covers the rest of the upper side of the slider, so that only its front curved end face is exposed in the retracted initial position of the slider.
- a stop is expediently formed, against which the slider rests in the retracted initial position under bias by the spring means.
- the spring means against the force of the slide from the head portion of the plug can be pushed out and the snap back immediately after its release back into the retracted initial position can be formed in many ways.
- a spring device a separate component can be used for example of a resilient metal, which acts between the slide and the stopper and is elastically deformed during the advance of the slider.
- the spring device is formed integrally with the slide of an elastically deformable plastic, which in principle is also a one-piece design with the plug within the scope of the invention.
- the spring device may be formed by at least one elastically deformable web which is attached or integrally formed on the slider or on the plug.
- the slide on two laterally cut free-ended spring tongues which are bent inwardly during advancement of the slider by inwardly directed wall portions of the side portions of the head portion of the plug, wherein a return force directed to the initial position is caused.
- the cut-free spring tongues may have curved outer contours, which are directed inwardly towards their free end and are pressed inwards by obliquely inwardly directed wall sections of the side sections, that the slider is pushed back after its release by the user along the obliquely inwardly directed wall sections ,
- the front portion of the slider is narrower than its rear remainder, and a preferably integrally formed on the underside of the upper wall of the head portion of the plug projection abuts in the retracted initial position of the slider to a stop of the slider, preferably by a vertical front Boundary wall of a recess in the upper side of the slider is formed, in which engages the projection of the upper wall of the plug.
- the slider comprises a substantially transversely to its longitudinal axis extending, in the feed direction bulged web which is resiliently pressed during advancement of the slider by a preferably arranged on the circular bottom portion of the stop stop, which also here to Initial position directed restoring force is caused, which causes the release of the slider to this back to the starting position, while serving as a spring means web assumes the bulged starting shape again.
- the invention also relates to the combination of a stopper according to the invention with an associated container, at the upper edge or container neck, if such is provided, an inner annular shoulder should be formed, on which the bottom portion of the plug rests.
- Figure 1 A is a perspective view of a container with a stopper, the slider is in the retracted initial position.
- Figure 1 B is a perspective view similar to Figure 1 A, but with advanced slide;
- Figure 1 C is a vertical section through the combination of container and

- Figure 2D is a plan view of the second embodiment of the plug;
- Figure 2E is a vertical section taken along the line A-A in Figure 2C.
- Figure 1 A shows a container 1, which is closed by a plug 2, in the center of which a slide 3 is arranged continuously from one edge to the other edge.
- a plug 2 in the center of which a slide 3 is arranged continuously from one edge to the other edge.
- the visible part of the plug together with the end-side peripheral portions of the slider forms a smooth continuous truncated cone shape, the slider 3 is also exposed at its rear portion with a part of its top.
- the plug 2 includes a circular bottom portion 4, which closes the container 1 and rests with its edge on an annular shoulder 5 in the container wall, so that the periphery of the bottom portion offers no possibility of attacking to open the plug.
- annular projection 6 is formed, whose curved outer side 7 firmly abuts against the inner wall of the container 1, whereby the plug 2 is held in a tight clamping fit in the container opening.
- a circumferential recess for receiving a bulging portion of the annular projection 6 may be formed.
- annular projection 6 Radially inside the annular projection 6 is another annular projection 8, which is integrally formed on the bottom portion 4 and is provided as a desiccant chamber. Towards the top, a head portion 9 projecting beyond the container rim is integrally formed on the bottom portion 4 and contains two spaced-apart mirror-inverted side portions 10 which are interconnected by an upper wall 11, the upper wall 11, the two side portions 10 with their longitudinal side walls 1 2 and the
- Bottom portion 4 of the plug 2 define a channel through which the slide 3 extends.
- the slider 3 includes two laterally cut, free-ending webs 13, which are shown in Figure F in their undeformed initial state.
- the two lateral webs 13 have a curved outer contour, which tapers inwardly towards the free end.
- FIG. 1 shows G
- a part of the upper side of the slider 3, which is indicated overall by the reference numeral 17, is exposed in this embodiment.
- Figures 1 B and 1 D show the advanced position of the slider in which it can be grasped at its protruding part, in order to lift off the plug from the container. In this case, the slider must be held against the spring force in the advanced position, what a small child is not able.
- Figures 2A to 2D show a second embodiment of the plug according to the invention with slider.
- the slider 18 is provided with a substantially transversely to the longitudinal axis of the slider extending, bulging web 1 9, which has a central recess and - as well as the webs 13 of the first embodiment described above - consists of an elastically deformable plastic.
- the web 19 is at its two ends, as shown in FIG 2B, at an angle of about 45 ° in the side walls of the slider, which has at the bottom a plurality of further webs 20, the displacement of the slider 18 relative to a at the bottom portion 21st allow molded stop 22.
- the slider 18 When the slider 18 is pushed in the illustrations of Figure 2 to the left out of the head portion of the plug, the web 1 9 is elastically pushed back, the web 1 9 after release of the slider 18 by the user immediately returns to its original shape, while the slider moved back into the initial position shown.
- the slider 18 is located on both sides paragraphs 23 at corresponding paragraphs of the side portions 24 of the plug, whereby the spring-loaded initial position of the slider is fixed.
- the slider is preferably made of PP or POM, while the plug is preferably made of HDPE, without the invention being limited to these materials.
