Definitions
- the invention relates to a closure for a packaging, preferably for a beverage can, the packaging having a lid which has at least one eccentric outlet region with a predetermined breaking line, and further comprising a cover which is relative to the lid from a closed position is reversibly movable in an open position, and at the outlet region, a first abutment surface is arranged, which cooperates with a counter surface arranged on the cover upon movement of the cover to press the outlet region into the packaging.
- Packaging with an outlet area can be found especially in container packaging, in particular for bulk goods and liquids. In such packages, it is often difficult to expose an outlet area.
- cans are known in which a lever has to be gripped to push an opening into the lid of the can.
- Other packages have tapes to remove a film.
- in resealable packaging are usually positive or non-positively acting lid.
- a closure of the type mentioned in the opening paragraph is disclosed in US Pat. No. 5,692,633, wherein a second metal lid is arranged on a beverage can, and pressing on the pouring opening is achieved via a bead in the first lid.
- a disadvantage of this design is that both the breaking of the predetermined breaking line of the pouring opening as well as the impressions of the pouring opening into the can takes place over this bead, so that here relatively high forces must be used, resulting in turn a complex, space-intensive geometry of the lid or the coverage results. It has also been shown that such solutions do not achieve complete exposure of the pouring opening, because the forces that occur do not press the pouring opening sufficiently far into the can.
- This object is achieved by a closure of the type mentioned according to the invention in that a further arranged at the outlet region second contact surface is provided, which also spaced from the first contact surface on movement of the cover also cooperates with the counter surface.
- This solution according to the invention has the advantage that a first abutment surface is provided essentially for breaking up the predetermined breaking line, while the second abutment surface effects the pushing in of the outlet region into the packaging.
- the mating surface of the cover presses against a first abutment surface to force the outlet area formed on the package into the packaging.
- the described opening mechanism is particularly useful in a can, because the known from the prior art devices for opening a can are often not very user-friendly. This concerns above all round cans for which the opening mechanism is particularly suitable, wherein it additionally has the advantage that the closure according to the invention is also suitable for reclosing the can.
- the closure according to the invention is particularly suitable for packaging, which have a cover made of sheet metal. In particular, for carbonated drinks are often used cans with a lid made of sheet metal, which are particularly easy to open with the mechanism described.
- the first contact surface and the counter surface are formed as run-on slopes, while preferably the second contact surface is formed as a run-up slope or as a survey.
- a first abutment surface designed as a separating bevel enables the separation of the outlet region from the cover
- a second abutment surface designed as a pressure bevel allows the outlet region to be pushed into or swiveled into the packaging.
- the action of the counter surface of the cover on the separation slope in the outlet area ensures that the package is opened and the outlet area is pressed in a special area when opening the package in the package.
- the outlet region is pressed into the packaging via an interaction of the counter surface of the cover with a pressure bevel in such a way that a sufficient opening for emptying the packaging results.
- the outlet region has a surface with a slope that with a protruding element, such as a cam or possibly another bevel or leading edge cooperates the cover to apply high forces on the outlet area via the interaction of inclined planes. If the contact surfaces are punched in a lid of the packaging, this allows the contact surface in a simple manner to form any desired and provide special slopes for optimal power transmission.
- the outlet region is clearly delimited by a predetermined breaking line, so that upon opening the outlet region easily separates from the surrounding region of the packaging in order to be pressed into the packaging.
- the outlet area remains in communication with the remainder of the package via a web to be pushed into the package without becoming detached from the remainder of the package and falling into the package.
- the counter surface of the cover is receivable in a recess in the lid.
- the recess advantageously has at least one run-on slope, which is arranged at an acute angle to the plane of the cover.
- the recess for receiving the counter surface of the cover is embossed in the material of the lid.
- the mating surface is initially arranged in a recess in the lid of the packaging.
- a bias initially builds up in which the counter surface moves out of the recess in the cover and slides along the cover plane.
- the mating surface comes to the first contact surface, which protrudes from the lid plane.
- the bias voltage is further increased, so that when the mating surface abuts against the first contact surface, the outlet region is opened along the predetermined breaking line.
- At least one of the contact surfaces has a run-on slope, which is arranged at an acute angle to the plane of the lid of the package.
- the pressure on the outlet region can be increased slowly, preferably to a level that allows the packaging to be opened. It is advantageous here if the cover is arranged rotatably on the outlet. This allows it in the radially outer area To allow contact surface and counter surface to interact with each other to use the lever provided by the radius.
- the contact surfaces and the counter surface may have a run-on slope, which is arranged at an acute angle to the plane of the cover.
- the acute angle allows for a flat ramp that, like a gearbox, extends the path and reduces the force needed to push the outlet into the package.
- a particular embodiment provides that the counter surface causes a pressure on the outlet, which is directed at an angle to the displacement direction of the counter surface.
- the mating surface acts on the outlet region in such a way that the outlet region is pressed into the packaging in the direction of this pressure.
- the outlet region should not be pressed into the packaging in the direction of this rotational movement.
- outlet region is pressed, for example, radially to the rotational movement of the cover into the packaging.
- outlet regions known from conventional beverage cans can be pressed, for example, at least partially into the packaging by the pressure of the cover, in order subsequently to push the outlet region into the packaging in a direction angled away from the rotational movement when the cover moves further relative to the lid.
- the cover is arranged to be laterally displaceable on the outlet region.
- the counter surface is formed in the cover. This allows a simple way to give the counterface a special shape that optimally uses the lifting forces to push the outlet area into the package with minimal force.
- a special variant in a very flat construction provides that the two contact surfaces can be accommodated in a receptacle arranged in the cover. This allows the two abutment surfaces to protrude from a cover plane and be received in an area of the cover. By a relative movement between the abutment surfaces and a counter surface provided on the cover, a force acts on the outlet area to push it into the packaging. In order to also let the mating surface from the plane of the cover without significantly increasing the height of the package, It is proposed that a cover has a recess into which the counter surface extends at a certain position of the cover relative to the lid of the package.
- the receptacle is designed as a region with a reduced material cross section of the cover.
- the cover has a seal, which is preferably arranged between receiving and counter surface.
- a seal allows, for example, a reclosability of the package, especially when the package is filled with liquid media.
- the seal presses under pretension against a cover.
- the cover has a seal extending around an opening in the cover.
- the cover has a seal extending around a closure in the cover.
- the cover may thus have a closure and an opening, these areas being respectively surrounded by a seal. This allows easy pouring of media from the package as well as secure closure of the package after the outlet area has been pushed into the package.
- Manufacturing processes such as coextrusion or multi-component injection molding, allow a seal to be integrally formed with the cover. It is advantageous if the seal is made of a different material than the rest of the cover, because the seal requires a high degree of flexibility, while the remaining packaging requires a high stability.
- An alternative embodiment provides that the seal is arranged on a cover and cooperates with the cover or that seals are provided on the cover and cover.
- the surface of the cover facing away from the cover is designed essentially flat around the pouring opening.
- the risk of spillage is substantially reduced when drinking from a beverage can.
- contamination of the cover during storage can be easily eliminated and the packaging is also better stackable.
- a simple solution of the invention provides that the cover is attached to the lid of the package.
- the flanged edge serves to firmly support the cover on the cover and at the same time rotatably.
- An inexpensive production variant provides that the cover is made of plastic. This makes it possible to produce the cover in any colors and inexpensively in large quantities.
- Fig. 1 shows schematically an outlet region and a cover in a first position relative to each other
- FIG. 2 schematically shows an outlet region and a cover in a second position relative to one another
- Fig. 3 schematically shows an outlet area and a cover in a third position relative to each other;
- Fig. 5 is a plan view of a second embodiment of a package
- Fig. 6 shows schematically a section along the line I-I in Fig. 5;
- Fig. 7 shows schematically a section along the line II-II in Fig. 5;
- FIG. 8 is a schematic sectional view along the line III-III in FIG. 5.
- FIG. 1 shows a detail of a packaging with a closure 1, the packaging having a lid 2, above which a cover 3 is arranged.
- the cover 3 is fixed to the lid 2 such that a relative movement between the cover 3 and the lid 2 is possible (not shown).
- the cover 3 shown as a settlement is moved relative to the lid 2 underneath.
- the figures clearly show that in a packaging form other than a can, a lateral movement between the cover 3 and the lid 2 leads to the same result.
- the cover 2 has an outlet region 4, which is surrounded by a deeply scored predetermined breaking line 6 except for a web 5.
- This outlet region 4 has a first contact surface 7, which is formed as an inclined plane.
- a survey 8 is provided, which acts as a second contact surface.
- the cover 3 has a circumferential seal 9, which is arranged in a recess 11, wherein in the illustrated figures, the seal 9 is shown only on the right side, while on the left side of the seal 9 receiving groove 11 is shown.
- the cover 3 also has a mating surface 12, which is received in a first position of the cover of FIG. 1 in a recess 13 in the cover 2, while the outlet 4 of the lid 2 in a receptacle
- the pressure of the mating surface 12 against the first abutment surface 7 causes the outlet region 4 to separate from the cover 2 in the region of the deep scored predetermined breaking line 6 and to be pressed down into the packaging.
- the force exerted by the seal 9 on the elevation 8 acts on the outlet region 4 in such a way that it kinks in the region of a material weakness 16 which is provided in the web 5.
- an outlet region 18, which is formed as an opening in the cover 3 enters the region above the opening 17 in the cover 2. This allows bulk material or a liquid in a simple manner flow out of the packaging (open position of the cover 3).
- the cover 3 When reclosing the packaging, the cover 3 is moved in the direction opposite to arrow 15 until the counter surface 12 of the cover 3 is again received in the recess 13 of the lid 2, the cover 3 thus again in the closed position shown in FIG located.
- the seal 9 ensures that, despite the outlet area 4 projecting into the packaging, the contents remaining in the packaging can not escape.
- the opening 18 in the cover 3 may also be surrounded by a seal which, when the package is open, lies around the opening 17 and bears against the lid 2 on the edge of the opening 17. This prevents that leaking material from the packaging in the area between the cover 2 and cover 3 passes.
- FIGS. 5 to 8 An alternative embodiment of the invention is shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, whereby FIG. 5 shows a package 20 with a lid 21 without a cover thereon.
- the cover 21 has an outlet region 22 which is delimited by a predetermined breaking line 23.
- the outlet region 22 is only partially bounded by the predetermined breaking line 23 and connected via a web 24 with the rest of the lid 21.
- a material weakening 25 is provided, which makes it easier to press the outlet region 22 into the packaging 20.
- a separating bump 26 is provided which has a separating bevel 27 on its upper side.
- a pusher elevation 28 is provided, which has a pressure bevel 29.
- the separating bevel 27 rises slightly from bottom to top
- the pressure ramp 29 according to FIG. 7 rises slightly from right to left, while at the same time its height increases (cf. FIGS. 7 and 8). increasing.
- the slope of the separating bevel 27 is thus arranged at right angles to the slope of the pressure bevel 29.
- FIGS. 6 to 8 On the right side of FIGS. 6 to 8 it is shown how the mating surface 30 of a cover 31 first acts on the parting surface 27 and subsequently on the pressure bevel 29.
- the cover 31 is rotated away with a serving as a counter-surface 30 elevation over the lid 21, wherein the counter surface 30 initially acts on the separation surface 27, that the outlet region 22 ruptures in the region of the predetermined breaking line 23 and bends slightly downwards.
- the mating surface 30 engages with the pressure bevel 29 in order to push the outlet region 22 further into the packaging 20 by pressure on the pressure bevel 29. Since a web 24 with a material weakening 25 is provided on the right-hand side of the outlet region 22 in FIG. 7, while an already torn-open rupture line lies on the left-hand side of the outlet region 22, the outlet region 22 is pressed or pivoted obliquely into the packaging.
- the pressure bevel 29 in the pusher elevation 28 is designed in such a way that, due to its inclination upon further rotation of the cover 31 relative to the cover 21, the mating surface 30 presses the pressure surface 29 and thus the outlet region 22 farther into the packaging 20.
