Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a closure for a beverage container with an upwardly open vessel and a beverage container with such a closure.
  • beverage containers especially so-called “Travel Mugs” have long been known from the prior art, which have a closure to keep a drink warm or cold.
  • These beverage containers usually comprise a vessel with an upper opening, wherein an internal thread is mounted in the region of the opening, and a lid which can be screwed into the internal thread and thus allows a sealing connection between the vessel and the lid.
  • beverage containers are advantageous in which the lid does not have to be removed from the container when drinking. Therefore, the lid is often designed and connected to the vessel that it releases a passage for a liquid contained in the vessel to the outside by simple manipulation, without having to be completely removed from the container for this purpose.
  • the vessel or the lid in many "Travel Mugs" on a raised edge, which forms a Trinkkkante and on the one hand facilitates direct drinking from the beverage container and on the other hand collects spilled liquid and leads back into the container. Examples of such beverage containers are described in US 5,249,703 . US 3,338,467 . US 2003/0209547 and US 6,102,244 ,
  • beverage containers consist of a plurality of individual parts and have a complicated structure. They are therefore complex and expensive to manufacture. Also, the individual parts are difficult for the user to access for cleaning.
  • Such a ausgestalteter closure for a beverage container consists of very few items and is therefore easy and inexpensive to manufacture.
  • the closure is easy to operate for the user.
  • the user moves the closure body from the first to the second position, whereby the outlet openings, which preferably extend in the radial direction, passages for the liquid release.
  • the closure body need not be completely removed from the insert element.
  • the raised, peripheral edge which preferably forms a funnel region which widens upwards, collects the liquid emerging from the outlet openings, which leaves it in bundled form again.
  • the edge therefore preferably has such a configuration with a sufficiently high height that the liquid is supplied in sufficiently bundled form to the user's mouth when it tilts the beverage container for drinking.
  • a handle element is preferably mounted on the top of the top surface of the closure body.
  • the closure body is also preferably configured as a whole in such a way and connected to the insert element, that the user does not with the lip or nose on the closure body abuts when he drinks directly from the beverage container.
  • At least two downwardly projecting, radially outwardly facing hooks are arranged on the apron, which prevent complete removal of the closure body from the insert element in that they strike at a withdrawal of the closure body from the insert element at a lower edge of the insert element.
  • the hooks are preferably flexible, so that a complete removal of the closure body from the insert element is possible by the hooks are pressed radially inward. The user can do this before the insert element with the therein Remove the used closure body from the vessel to get better access to the hooks.
  • exactly two hooks can be arranged on the apron, whereby the user can press them in a simple manner, for example with a thumb and index finger inside.
  • the hooks are preferably made of an extending from the skirt downwardly element and attached to the lower end of this element, radially outwardly facing projection.
  • the downwardly extending element may taper in certain areas, or it may consist of several, in particular two, struts, which are connected at its lower end by the radially outwardly facing projection.
  • the downwardly extending elements of the hooks preferably have a length which is slightly greater than the vertical height of the first engagement structure.
  • the closure body preferably has a sealing element which is arranged on a radial outer side of the skirt above the outlet openings and which comes to lie in the first position between the closure body and the insert element and thereby seals the closure opening.
  • the sealing element may in particular be an O-ring.
  • the first engagement structure is designed as an internal thread and the second engagement structure as an external thread.
  • the passages have a cross-sectional area which is variable by the position of the closure body between the first and the second position. The user can thus regulate the amount of liquid exiting through the closure opening by selecting any position of the closure body between the first and second positions.
  • the outlet openings may be formed as openings, which are within the Apron are arranged and are surrounded on all sides by parts of the skirt.
  • the outlet openings are arranged above the second engagement structure. They are then arranged between the sealing element and the second engagement structure, if a sealing element is present.
  • the outlet openings may also be formed as recesses, which are open to the lower end of the skirt.
  • the outlet openings may also be arranged overlapping with the second engagement structure.
  • the second engagement structure is then interrupted by the outlet openings or is at least at the same height with respect to the vertical as the outlet openings.
  • the vessel is double-walled. As a result, the heat insulation of the vessel is improved to the outside.
  • the vessel side wall preferably has a first connection structure for connecting the vessel to the insert element in the region of the upper vessel opening on the radial inner side.
  • the insert element preferably has on its outer side a second connection structure, which is designed to be complementary to the first connection structure.
  • the first connection structure can be designed in particular as an internal thread and the second connection structure as an external thread.
  • a sealing element is preferably mounted on the radial outer side of the insert element, for example an O-ring.
  • the connection between vessel and insert element can but also be produced by gluing or welding.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show in different representations a preferred embodiment of a beverage container with a closure according to the invention.
  • the beverage container has a vessel 1, an insert element 2 and a closure body 3.
  • the vessel 1 comprises a vessel bottom 11 and a peripheral side wall 12 whose upper edge defines an upper opening.
  • the vessel is shown opaque, but it may also be translucent or translucent. It may be a plastic vessel, but also a vessel made of a metal or of glass is conceivable.
  • the vessel 1 has on the outside of its side wall 12 relief-like structures, whereby the vessel 1 on the one hand better in the user's hand and on the other hand looks aesthetically pleasing.
  • the side wall 12 and the bottom 11 of the vessel 1 are designed here double-walled in order to improve the thermal insulation of the vessel 1.
  • the liquid in the interior of the vessel thus retains its longer than the outside temperature deviating temperature (cold or hot).
  • it is prevented by the double-walled design of the vessel 1 that the user burns his fingers when picking up the beverage container or condensate forms when the contents are cold.
  • the inventive closure can also be used in conjunction with single-walled vessels.
  • the vessel 1 further has on the radial inner side of the side wall 12 in the region of the vessel opening to a connecting structure 13, which is designed as an internal thread. This can be connected to a complementary connection structure 24 of the insert element 2. The insert element 2 is thereby sealingly inserted into the vessel opening.
  • the side wall 12 widens slightly from the vessel bottom 11 upwards to the vessel opening. Thereby, the seal between the inserted from above into the opening insert element 2 and the vessel 1 can be improved by the insert element 2 simply pushed further into the opening or -geschraubt. Due to the smaller diameter of the inner vessel 1, the seal between the vessel 1 and the insert element 2 is better, the further the insert element 2 is screwed into the vessel 1.
  • the upper edge of the side wall 12 is formed chamfered, wherein the inner diameter of the vessel 1 increases in this area from bottom to top. As a result, the possible bearing surface for a sealing element 23 arranged on the insert element 2 is enlarged on the upper edge of the side wall 12 of the vessel 1.
  • the insert element 2 shown individually in the FIGS. 3 to 5 , Has a circumferential side wall which surrounds a vertical, continuous closure opening 21.
  • the side wall of the insert element 2 ends at the bottom with a lower edge 26, which serves as a stop for the below described, arranged on the closure body 3 hook 37 to prevent complete removal of the closure body 3 from the insert element 2 by the user.
  • the insert element 2 can be divided into three superimposed sections 27, 28, 29, as in the Figures 2 and 4 easy to recognize.
  • the substantially cylindrical lowermost portion 27 has the smallest inner and outer diameter compared to the other portions 28, 29 and carries on its inside an engaging structure 22 in the form of an internal thread.
  • the engagement structure 22 serves to receive a complementary engagement structure 36, which is arranged on the insertable into the insert element 2 closure body 3. When inserted into the vessel 1 insert element 2, the outside of this lower portion 27 is arranged at a distance from the inner side wall 12 of the vessel 1.
  • the lower portion 27 of the insert member 2 is at its upper end in the central portion 28, wherein the side wall of the insert element 2 widens in the transition region from the lower portion 27 to the central portion 28 radially upward.
  • the central portion 28 has both a larger inner diameter and a larger outer diameter than the lower portion 27 and outside also has a substantially cylindrical shape.
  • a connection structure 24 is arranged, which is designed as an external thread.
  • the outer diameter of this central portion 28 is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the vessel 1 in the region of the vessel opening, and the external thread 24 of the insert element 2 is formed complementary to the internal thread 13 of the vessel 1. As a result, the insert element 2 can be inserted from above into the vessel 1 and connected thereto via the two complementary threads 13, 24.
  • the connecting structures 13, 24 do not necessarily have to be formed as a thread, but can also be configured as ribs, grooves, depressions, which are complementary to each other. Also, for example, a bayonet-type closure would be conceivable, or the insert part 2 could be glued or welded to the vessel 1.
  • the middle section 28 of the insert element 2 merges at its upper end directly into the upper section 29.
  • the upper edge, that is to say the drinking edge, of the upper section 29 and thus of the insert element 2 in this case projects completely over the closure body 3 when it is inserted into the insert element 2.
  • the upper portion 29 widens in a longitudinal section viewed from bottom to top first on a convex and then on a concave surface. This funnel area 25 formed thereby serves the user as drinking aid.
  • the liquid passing out through the closure body 3 thus does not run down uncontrollably when dispensing or drinking over all sides of the beverage container, but is collected in the funnel region 25 of the insert element 2 and leaves it in bundled form.
  • the funnel region 25 has a vertical height necessary for this purpose.
  • the raised funnel portion 25 prevents the user, when drinking directly from the beverage container when tipping it, for example, with the nose or lip on the closure body 3 abuts.
  • a sealing element 23 is arranged on the radial outer side of the insert element 2.
  • the side wall of the insert element 2 in the region of the upper portion 29 on its outer side forms a right-angled edge, below which the sealing element 23 is arranged.
  • a small protrusion facing outwardly from the side wall holds the sealing element 23 in position.
  • the sealing member 23 may be an O-ring.
  • the side wall of the insert element 2 is formed on its outer side in the upper part of the funnel region 25 such that it forms a continuation of the vessel side wall 12 from the right-angled edge upwards.
  • the insert element 2 is formed in two pieces, consisting of the actual insert body and the sealing element 23.
  • the one-piece insert body is for example made of plastic by injection molding.
  • the closure body 3 shown individually in the FIGS. 6 to 9 , Has a top surface 32, a circumferential skirt 36, a handle member 31 and hooks 24.
  • the closed top surface 32 is slightly curved in a central center piece down and has an outer edge region which is connected via a bend with the middle piece and rises to the top.
  • the wing-screw-like grip element 31 is arranged, which extends diametrically over the entire top surface 32. In the region of the outer edge region of the cover surface 32, the grip element 31 projects upwardly projecting projections, which project beyond the uppermost point of the cover surface 32 clearly upwards.
  • the closure body 3 when the closure body 3 is inserted into the insert element 2, surmounted by the upper edge of the side wall of the insert element 2 upwards.
  • the height of the handle element 31 decreases significantly, as a result of which the user does not touch the handle element 31 with the closure body 3 when it is directly drunk from the beverage container.
  • the handle member 31 In the middle of the top surface 32, the handle member 31 is surmounted by the outer edge of the top surface 32 upwards.
  • the closure body 3 On the outside of the outer edge of the top surface 32, the closure body 3 has a radially outwardly directed projection, below which a sealing element 34 is arranged.
  • the sealing member 34 which is an O-ring, is held in position downwardly by a smaller, second projection which is also directed outwards.
  • a circumferential skirt 35 extends downwards.
  • the small projection below the sealing element 34 is arranged on the outside of this skirt 35, at its upper end.
  • the skirt 35 extends straight down to the height of the lowermost point of the top surface 32.
  • the skirt On its radially outer side, the skirt has an engagement structure 36, which is designed here as an external thread.
  • This external thread 36 is complementary to the internal thread 22 of the insert element 2, whereby the closure body 3 can be inserted into the insert element 2 and connected by mutual engagement of the two threads with this.
  • the external thread 36 may, but need not, be formed continuously in the circumferential direction.
  • the external thread 36 is interrupted at two diametrically opposite points, as shown in FIGS FIGS. 6 to 8 is apparent.
  • a plurality of outlet openings 33 in the form of apertures are arranged in the skirt 35.
  • the outlet openings 33 are arranged uniformly along the circumferential direction of the skirt 35.
  • the sealing element 34 is in a position spaced from the insert element 2, and the outlet openings 33 are in a position above the lower portion 27 of the insert element 2.
  • the position of the closure body 3 is thus by screwing between the first and the second position in vertical direction relative to the insert element 2 changeable.
  • the outlet openings 33 release passages for a liquid from the interior of the beverage container to the outside.
  • the liquid can thus reach the outlet openings 33 by passing through the space between the skirt 35 and the outer, rising edge region of the top surface 32. Starting from the outlet openings 33, the liquid then passes below the sealing element 34 and above the lower section 28 of the insert element 2 into the funnel region 25 of the insert element 2, where the liquid is collected and bundled as described above.
  • the cross-sectional area of the passages is variable and can be set arbitrarily by the user. That is, he chooses an arbitrary position of the closure body 3 between the first and the second position to regulate the exiting liquid amount.
  • a hook 24 consists of a downwardly extending from the skirt 35, elastic portion, and attached to the lower end of this section, outwardly directed projection.
  • the downwardly extending portion comprises two struts which are connected at the lower end by the outward projection.
  • the hooks 24 thereby have a certain flexibility, which is advantageous, as explained below.
  • the length of the downwardly extending portion of the hooks 24 is selected to be slightly longer than the height of the internal thread 22 and the bottom portion 27 of the insert element 2.
  • closure body 3 If the closure body 3 is pulled upwards out of the insert element 2, The outwardly directed projections of the hooks 24 abut against the lower edge 26 of the insert element 2, and further withdrawal is thereby prevented. In this way, the closure body 3 when drinking, or when the beverage container tips over, do not fall out of the rest of the container. The risk that the user scalds by the leaking liquid, or that he gets wet or loses the closure body is thereby significantly reduced.
  • the insert element 2 can be unscrewed from the vessel 1, and the user can remove the closure body 3 from the insert element 2 by pressing the hooks 24 radially inward.
  • the hooks 24 have some flexibility for this reason.
  • exactly two hooks 24 are present on the closure body 3, whereby the user can press the hooks 24 in a simple manner with the aid of, for example, thumb and forefinger inward.
  • two hooks 24 are attached to the skirt 35, which are arranged on respective diametrically opposite sides. But there may also be more than two hooks 24.
  • the closure body 3 is formed in two pieces, consisting of a base body and a sealing element 23.
  • the base body is for example made of plastic by injection molding.
  • the outlet openings 33 are formed as recesses which are open towards the lower end of the skirt 35.
  • the recesses overlap with the attached to the skirt 35 external thread 24 by an interruption of this external thread 24 represent.
  • the insert element 2 is dispensed with or forms it a part of the vessel by integrally connected to it.
  • the vessel in the region of its upper opening has an engagement structure, for example in the form of an internal thread, which is designed to be complementary to the engagement structure 36 of the closure body 3.
  • the closure body 3 can thus be inserted directly into the vessel and can be connected to it via the engagement structures.
  • the engagement structure below the engagement structure of the vessel there may be projections which form a lower edge against which the hooks 24 of the closure body 3 strike when it is pulled out of the vessel.
  • the engagement structure can also be designed as an element projecting inwards from the side wall of the vessel and have a lower edge for the stop of the hooks 24.
  • the vessel in this embodiment has a funnel region which is suitable for collecting and bundling the liquid emerging through the outlet openings 33.
  • the outlet openings 33 can be arranged differently.
  • they may overlap with a part of the external thread 36 of the closure body 3 and thus represent an interruption of this engagement structure 36.
  • the top surface 32 of the closure body 3 may also be designed differently and be curved, for example, flat or upwards.
  • the handle member 31 may have another shape.
  • the sealing members 23 and 34 may be omitted or integrally formed with, for example, the two-component injection molding method with the insert member or the closure body. A variety of other modifications is possible.
