Definitions

  • the invention relates to the lid of a container, in particular a beverage can, with an essentially flat lid mirror and a preferably folded edge area, at least one reclosable pouring opening being arranged on the lid mirror, with an essentially one-piece closure means belonging to the pouring opening, which is completely on the underside of the lid mirror is attached in a rotationally fixed manner and with an actuating means which is connected to the closure means and penetrates the lid mirror and which is arranged on the top side of the lid mirror and is accessible from the outside, the closure means being adjustable from a closed position by actuating the actuating means to an open position, and wherein the actuating means has a holding element which cooperates with the cover mirror when the closure means is in the open position.
  • Another group of closure means for beverage cans consists of a tear-open tab which is fastened to the can lid, for example by means of a rivet connection, the handle part of the tear-open tab being simultaneously designed as a closure means for the pouring opening, which after opening the pouring opening by twisting and / or flipping the Tear tab closes the pouring opening again.
  • Such elements are among others in the DE 197 46 539 A1 , of the DE 203 19 105 U1 , of the EP 1 190 952 A2 , of the EP 1 097 086 B1 and the EP 0 433 502 A1 shown.
  • These beverage cans all have a closure which is applied to the pouring opening from the outside and in some cases protrudes beyond the edge of the lid, so that it can be removed unintentionally and the contents of the can are thus exposed to the environment.
  • the GB 2 331 284 A finally describes a closure system consisting of a tear-open tab for exposing a pouring opening and a closure means which is arranged on the underside of the can lid inside the can, a spring element pressing the closure means against the pouring opening.
  • This closure means has the disadvantage that it has an extremely complicated structure and requires a change to the usual can lid.
  • the closure device can also be of a somewhat simpler construction, also multi-part US 3,889,842 are removed, which also requires an elaborately modified lid. In the US 4,746,032 A similar reusable closure means are described.
  • the US 5,812,189 A describes a lid of the type mentioned with an additional closure means, which is arranged inside the beverage can and is pressed by spring force against the drinking opening.
  • This closure system is also a hindrance, particularly when the container lid is being mounted on the beverage can during the filling process.
  • a cover according to claim 1 solved in that the closure means can be moved from the closed position substantially perpendicular to the lid mirror into the open position and that the actuating means covers the pouring opening in the closed position.
  • the actuating means covers the pouring opening in the closed position. This prevents, for example, when the reclosed beverage can is transported in a pocket, further objects in the pocket can move the closure means from its closed position into an at least partially open position, and thus the contents of the can pour into the pocket.
  • the closure means has a fastening part which is in a non-detachable connection to the lid mirror, and a closure region which closes the pouring opening in a liquid-tight manner, wherein a joint is provided between the fastening part and the closure region, about which the closure region of the closure means can be pivoted against a restoring force, and the joint is designed as an area with increased flexibility between the fastening part and the closure region.
  • this joint is designed as an area with a smaller material cross section located between the fastening part and the closure area. If the closure means is made of an elastic material, the closure means is folded away when the actuating means is actuated, a force corresponding to the elastic properties of the material of the closure means having to be applied for this.
  • the preferably one-piece closure means By attaching the preferably one-piece closure means in a torsion-proof manner, for example by gluing or soldering to the underside of the cover mirror, rapid assembly of the closure means on a commercially available cover is possible, with no or only slight change of the cover, for example a simple punching out for the Carrying out the actuating means through the cover are necessary.
  • the edge region of the lid remains unchanged, so that the lid can be placed and fastened on the container, in particular on the beverage can, in the usual way.
  • the actuating means can be rotated essentially in one plane parallel to the cover mirror. Alternatively, it can be moved. The movement of the actuating means on the one hand removes the closure means from the pouring opening, preferably moving it essentially vertically out of the closed position, in particular by folding it away into the interior of the can, on the other hand the actuating means itself releases the pouring opening.
  • closure means is designed as a two-component injection molded part.
  • the actuating means connected to the closure means - it can also be formed, for example, in one piece with the closure means - causes the closure means to be folded out of the plane of the pouring opening into the interior of the can, that is to say can be moved into the open position essentially perpendicular to the can level. this releases the pouring opening and thus the contents of the can can be removed.
  • the holding element of the actuating means is advantageously designed as a detent for receiving at least one edge of the cover mirror when the closure means is open.
  • the closure means is fixed in the open position and the contents of the can can be removed without having to exert any additional force on the actuating means.
  • the locking means can be held in the open position by a latching hinge.
  • the actuating means can be designed differently. In a preferred embodiment, it is wedge-shaped.
  • the wedge surface can be straight or helically curved.
  • the actuating means is arranged on the surface of the lid mirror so as to be rotatable essentially about its central axis running perpendicular to the lid mirror, wherein it acts on the closing means when it is turned, so that the closing area is pivoted into the open position.
  • the actuating means is designed as a lever with a latching lug that projects substantially perpendicularly from the cover mirror.
  • An improved sealing of the pouring opening by the closing means is given if an additional sealing means is arranged between the closing area of the closing means and the lid mirror.
  • This can be arranged, for example, on the side of the closure means facing the pouring opening. It can also be attached to the underside of the can mirror, advantageously enclosing the edges of the pouring opening in order to prevent injuries, for example when drinking from the can.
  • the sealant simultaneously forms the area made of elastic material, so that this reduces the number of individual parts of the lid and thus, according to the invention, a higher stability of the closure of the pouring opening of a beverage can is achieved.
  • Packaging security is an important aspect, particularly with food packaging.
  • the pouring opening is preferably sealed with a seal before the first opening.
  • this seal is, for example, a badge or a label which has to cover and remove the pouring opening before the can contents can be removed.
  • the seal is designed as a pre-punched closure flap which is pulled off when the container is opened for the first time and thereby releases the pouring opening in the lid mirror.
  • the pouring opening is closed with the closure means before the first opening, the actuating means having a securing device.
  • the actuating means can be provided with a label which at least partially covers the lid mirror, so that the label tears when the actuating means is actuated and thus indicates manipulation of the container.
  • securing device which has a predetermined breaking point which is broken open when the container is opened for the first time. If, for example, a label is used as a securing means, it can under certain circumstances be removed entirely and put back on the container without a glance at a difference from an untouched label being recognizable. A manipulation of the contents of the container would not be recognizable at first glance. In the case of a securing device with a predetermined breaking point, however, manipulation of the seal cannot be made unnoticeable again and is therefore particularly safe for the end user.
  • a ventilation device in addition to the pouring opening, a ventilation device is provided which can be closed by the closure means together with the pouring opening.
  • This ventilation device allows a particularly simple emptying of the can contents without interruption due to negative pressure in the beverage can.
  • closure means and / or the actuating means are made of plastic.
  • the material used must be suitable for food.
  • the closure means a substantially flat plate, which is divided into two areas by a bulge 2.
  • This bulge essentially represents a joint 2 which has an elastic region 21, the closure means 1 being manufactured in particular as a two-component injection molded part.
  • the area with the smaller area is the fastening part 3 of the closure means 1, which serves for the rotationally fixed fastening of the closure means 1 on the underside of the lid of a container.
  • the closure means 1 is made of a flexible material, for example plastic.
  • FIG. 2 An actuating means 6, which for example according to FIG Fig. 2 be wedge-shaped, attached.
  • the actuating means 6 has a recess 7, the cross section of which essentially corresponds to that of the attachment 5.
  • Fig. 3 shows the closure means 1 with the actuating means 6 attached.
  • the closure means 1 is attached to the underside of a container lid 8, in particular to the underside of the lid mirror 9 of a beverage can.
  • the closure area 4 closes a pouring opening 10 arranged eccentrically on the lid mirror 9.
  • the T-shaped attachment 5, on which the wedge-shaped actuating means 6 is placed projects through a recess 11 in the middle area of the lid mirror 9.
  • the actuating means 6 in the direction of the arrow Fig. 4 moved in such a way that the two legs 12, 12 'slide between the cover mirror 9 and the closure means 1.
  • the elastic region 21 serves here as a joint 2, which forms the pivot axis of the closure region 4.
  • the wedge-shaped actuating means 6 is moved over the attachment 5, which engages in the receptacle 7 of the actuating means 6.
  • the distance between the cover mirror 9 and the closure means 1 increases, the closure region 4 being pivoted about a pivot axis lying essentially in the bulge 2.
  • the bulge 2 located in the closure means 1 thus functions as a joint, about the axis of which the closure region 4 is pivoted out of the plane of the cover mirror 9.
  • an additional closure element arranged on the actuating means 6 is also provided, which is arranged on the side of the can mirror 9 opposite the closure means 1 for closing the pouring opening 10, the illustration of the additional closure element being dispensed with due to the clarity.
  • This closure element has a shape substantially adapted to the pouring opening 10 and also opens the drinking opening 10 when the actuating means 6 is moved.
  • the closure means 1 is in turn arranged on the underside of the lid mirror 9 in order to close the pouring opening 10 with its closure region 4.
  • a sealing material 13 is arranged between the closure area 4 and the lid mirror 9, which additionally seals and thus prevents the contents of the container from leaking.
  • the closure means 1 is in the Fig. 5 shown closed position pressed on the one hand by a bias resulting from the shape of the closure means made of elastic material against the pouring opening; on the other hand, the contact pressure increases further if, for example, carbonated drinks are filled in the container.
  • an elastic region 21 is again provided in the region of the joint 2, which supports the closure region 4 from folding away when the actuating means 6 is actuated.
  • the actuating means 6 is an essentially cylindrical lever which is connected to the closure means 1 through a bore in the cover mirror 9.
  • the lever is either in one piece with the Closure means 1 manufactured or is attached to this, for example via a screw connection.
  • the lever 6 At its lower end facing the cover mirror, the lever 6 has a constriction 14, which in turn is adjoined by a region 15 with the original diameter of the lever 6.
  • the area 15 acting as a locking lug slides below the cover mirror 9, while the edge of the cover mirror 9 engages in the constriction 14. In this way, the closure area 4 is fixed in its folded-away position and the container can be emptied.
  • the lever 6 In order to close the pouring opening 10 again, only the lever 6 has to be pressed in the direction opposite the pouring opening, so that the edge of the lid mirror 9 slides out of the constriction 14 again and the latching lug is released again.
  • the lid of 7 and 8 differs from the lids described above in that an enlarged pouring opening 10 is arranged laterally offset and in addition that a ventilation opening 10a is provided. Both openings 10 and 10a can be closed by a correspondingly designed closure means 1.
  • a further closure element is additionally arranged on the outside of the can mirror 9 and prevents the closure area 4 from being inadvertently pivoted, for example during the transport of the beverage can in a pocket.
  • the closure means 1 is only arranged in the area of the cover mirror 9 and the edge area of the cover 8 remains free.
  • the actuating means 6 is fastened to the closure means 1 through a recess 11 or bore located in the cover mirror 9.
