Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for closing the opening of a rigid or semi-rigid packaging, in particular a container, wherein a reclosability after the first opening of the packaging is to be ensured.
  • a container For example, it is known to equip a container with a lid, which must be separated when opening the package. Detection means for the integrity of the closure may be provided which is often torn off. However, such a lid can not ensure perfect tightness, especially against gases due to its design. A sealed package as required for certain products such as pharmaceuticals, foods or the like can not be produced in this way.
  • Another solution known to a person skilled in the art is to connect a prefabricated cover film made of a film based on plastic, aluminum or paper to an edge of the packaging by means of a heat-fusible layer circulating around the edge. This seals the opening of the packaging tightly. This lidding film can be peeled off to open the packaging. The removal of the lid film requires a lot of power, even if a grip tab is provided on the circumference.
  • the cover sheet also snaps when peeled, since the relative tear strength of the lid material is usually less than the resistance of the sealed seam.
  • a reclosability of the package after the first opening is no longer present, i. after the lidding foil has been torn off along the sealing seam.
  • a separate lid which can be snapped on or otherwise placed, for example.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a solution that eliminates these problems in a simple, yet efficient way.
  • the problem that the invention intends to solve is to replace the cover and the lid with a system performing the same functions of the individual parts.
  • the closure system consists of a rigid part, which preferably forms a frame, and a flexible part arranged thereon, in particular a plastic film, wherein the outer contour of the rigid part of the inner contour corresponds to the opening of the container and so in Container is centered.
  • a film preferably an IML film
  • Another very advantageous embodiment is also present if the film protrudes outwardly beyond the rigid part and there sealed with an opening of the container surrounded edge can be welded or glued.
  • the flexible part corresponding to the inner contour of the opening of the container has a weakening line which separates the flexible part into a part fixed to the container and a lift-off part.
  • the lift-off part is separated during the first opening.
  • the remaining fixed part is usually on the sealing edge of the container.
  • the gripping tab can be, for example, an integral part of the flexible part or the rigid part. It is also conceivable that the grip tab is arranged on the liftable part or else on the fixed part. The grip tab can be made detachable from the specified part.
  • Another extremely advantageous embodiment of the invention is also present when the liftable part is formed by the rigid part and a part of the flexible part.
  • the lift-off part is designed to re-close the container re-usable in the opening.
  • the lift-off part consisting of a rigid part and the film are very easily separated and also put back, with the reinserting, re-closing, often at least a limited tightness can be achieved, since the lift-off part is precisely to the container opening.
  • the separable part ensures the function of a lid.
  • the rigid part constitutes a peripheral support zone which, on the one hand, corresponds to the opening of the container during reclosing and, on the other hand, stabilizes the film.
  • the IML film is sealed on the edge of the container.
  • the rigid part has an outwardly projecting support zone, which is located on the Opening and / or can support at the edge of the container and is at least partially formed circumferentially and may be formed as a collar.
  • the rigid part has inwardly projecting lugs, which on the one hand can stabilize the rigid part in its contour and on the other hand can stabilize the flexible part, especially with regard to pressure loads during stacking. Occurring forces are introduced directly into the rigid part and thus transferred to the container.
  • the rigid part is formed by injection of plastic onto the film, through the film or through a two-sided process.
  • connection seals welding, gluing or the like is conceivable.
  • the rigid part may be partially or completely connected to the cover film.
  • the rigid part is formed by a shaping method from the cover film or an additional film or an additional film section.
  • Another very advantageous embodiment of the invention is also present when the rigid part is arranged on the bottom, the top or on both sides of the lid film.
  • the invention is applicable to any type of rigid or semi-rigid material packaging, wherein the container may have any shape but has a flat edge surrounding the dispensing opening, which is suitable as a sealing edge.
  • This container is designated (R), the container opening with (0).
  • the opening (0) of the container (R) is closed by a rigid part (1) which is connected to an IML film (2) and together form a lid.
  • IML in-mold labeling
  • a film is designated, which is usually pre-printed in a thermoformed or injection-molded mold and then injected or deep drawn further material. The connection between the inserted foil and the further material takes place by partial melting of the plastic materials.
  • the IML film has all or part of the imprints or labels intended to be printed on the finished product.
  • an IML film can be used as cover film, can have openings or lines of weakness, and the second material can completely or partially cover the IML film.
  • the connection of two IML films is conceivable.
  • the rigid part (1) is formed such that it forms a frame or a flange, not shown, which is formed circumferentially and does not form a full surface.
  • the rigid part (1) corresponds to the opening (0) of the container (R) and centered in this.
  • the rigid part (1) is formed by injecting plastic material onto the IML film (2).
  • the IML film (2) projects outwardly beyond the rigid part (1) to form a fastening zone (2a) for connection to an edge (R1) of the container R.
  • a fastening zone (2a) for connection to an edge (R1) of the container R.
  • the IML film (2) closes the container as a lid, as in the Fig. 1 and 4 is shown.
  • the rigid part (1) When closed, the packaging is gas and water proof.
  • the rigid part (1) is arranged centered in the opening (0) of the container. It should be noted that the rigid part (1) has a peripheral support zone (1a), which is able to rest on the edge (R1) and thus holds the lid in position.
  • the IML film (2) has a weakening line (2c) interposed between the rigid part (1) and the fastening zone 2a and which corresponds to the opening (0) of the container.
  • a break-off zone (2b) of the IML film (2) is formed, which is equipped with a grip tab (3), on which the tearable zone (2b) can be detected.
  • the grip tab (3) can be an integral part of the film (2) or placed on this.
  • the grip tab (3) is part of the rigid part (1).
  • the tearable zone (2b) thus comprises the inner part of the IML film (2) and the rigid part (1) of the lid. These two together can be used after removal of content from the container back into the opening (0) to close them again.
  • the rigid part (1) is formed by injection-molding on the underside of the IML film 2, wherein it is also conceivable that the injection takes place laterally or through the IML film.
  • the IML film may have corresponding openings or weakenings.
  • FIG. 7 An embodiment in which at least the main part of the rigid part (1) is arranged on the IML film (2) is shown in FIG. 7 shown.
  • FIG. 8 On the other hand, the underside of the IML film (2) of a variant is shown in which the rigid part (1) has parts on both sides of the IML film.
  • the Verscrhlußsystem invention replaces a known lid and a
  • FIGS. 1 and 4 the opening of the water- and gas-tight container is shown.
  • the packaging is sealed airtight and watertight by being sealed on the edge (R1) surrounding the opening (0) of the container.
  • the system according to the invention allows a very good level of protection of the contents of the container by reclosability.
  • the force required to open the lid is comparatively low.
  • An accidental tearing of the lidding film can not be done by the underlying reinforcement of the rigid part (1) also.
  • the invention is not limited to the use of a printed IML film. Rather, the term IML film is used here to characterize a film which may be connected to a rigid part.
  • connection between the film and the rigid part (1) takes place by gluing or by other joining methods.
  • connection between film (2) and rigid part (1) does not have to be provided over the entire surface. Partial connections are often enough.
  • FIGS. 7 and 10 are shown inwardly projecting lugs (5) on the rigid part (1), on which the bottom of another container stacked on a first container can be supported.
  • the weight of subsequent containers can not cause damage to the comparatively thin IML film (2), since it is not loaded.
