Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a resealable bottle with a bottle closure suitable for this purpose.
  • the invention relates to a cosmetic bottle, as used for example to provide hair shampoo, shower gel, hair gel or the like.
  • Such bottles are known from the prior art with a bottle closure designed as a so-called tilting disc.
  • the tilting disc closes the outlet end of the bottle or neck flat and flush.
  • a radially extending mouth channel is formed in the tilting disc. This mouth channel opens into an opening at the disc edge of the tilting disc.
  • the tilting disc closes off the end of the bottle or the neck of the bottle and the outlet opening is covered by the wall of the bottle end or bottleneck and thus closed.
  • the tilting disc in the neck or in the bottle end is tilted so that the edge of the bottle or the edge of the bottle neck releases the orifice, so that the liquid through the mouth of the channel Bottle can escape laterally through the discharge opening.
  • the bottle is simply rotated overhead.
  • the disadvantage here is the fact that any force acting on the tilting disc can cause an opening of the tilting disc. This can also lead to an unwanted opening and closing of the tilting disc.
  • a reclosable bottle with the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known.
  • a tilting disc is pivotally mounted in a rotatable sleeve.
  • the tilting disc is positively guided so that it is tilted during rotation of the sleeve from its horizontal closed position to its oblique open position or spent in turning in the opposite direction back to its horizontal closed position to close the orifice.
  • the tilting disk is rotated together with the sleeve during rotation of the sleeve, so that the position of the orifice opening changes with respect to the circle extending from the tilting disk when the sleeve is rotated.
  • the EP 0 558 810 A1 shows a similar resealable bottle.
  • the invention has for its object to make a resealable bottle so that the tilting disc can not be opened or closed unintentionally and at the same time the Ausmündungsö réelle the tilting disc is constant with respect to their position relative to the circular circumference of the tilting disc.
  • the invention is based on the basic idea not to actuate the tilting disc directly by a pressure on the disc surface, but to provide a separate drive element in addition to the tilting disc. Between the drive element and the tilting disc, a cam gear is interposed, so that the drive element forcibly leads the tilting disc.
  • the drive element is designed as a rotary ring.
  • This rotary ring is arranged relative to the bottle longitudinal axis below the tilting disc.
  • the tilting disc thus continues to form the marginal end of the bottle.
  • On the rotary ring or on a side adjacent to the rotary ring guide curves are arranged. These guide curves are part-circular and are diametrically opposite each other.
  • the guide curves each rise in the manner of a helix.
  • From the underside of the tilting disc are guide pins, which rest with their end faces on the guide surfaces of the guide curves. Due to their helically rising geometry, the guide curves form, as it were, up and down ramps for the guide bolts on the tilting disk. If the rotary ring is rotated, the guide bolts slide up and down on the guide surfaces, resulting in a tilting movement of the tilting disc as a result of the ascending or descending course of the respective guide surface on the guide curve.
  • the guide pins are each located at one end of their associated guide curves. These ends of the guide curves are not on or descending, but designed plan, whereby a tilting movement of the tilting disc is excluded in these end positions. For pivoting the tilting disc, it is therefore always necessary to operate the rotary ring.
  • a latching lip is provided on the bottle neck. From the flange of the retaining flange projects from a mounting collar, which has a locking groove to form a snap connection with the locking lip on the bottle neck.
  • two opposing stop jaws are formed on the bottle neck. These stop jaws are made of recesses in the mounting collar of the retaining flange partially overlapped, whereby the retaining flange is rotationally secured adapted to the bottleneck.
  • This opening has two circular segment-shaped, applied to the bottleneck guideways.
  • the guideways in turn have edges which can strike the sides of the stop jaws on the bottle neck, so that in each case two stop positions are defined for the rotary ring relative to the bottle neck by the stop jaws on the bottle neck.
  • This pin passes through a recess on the retaining flange.
  • This recess is arcuate.
  • this pin moves from one end of the arcuate recess to its other end.
  • locking cams are provided in each case in the recess. These locking cams each engage behind the pin in a form-fitting manner as soon as it reaches a position at one end of the recess. This positive engagement of the pin by the locking cams has a double function.
  • the rotary ring is positively secured in its respective rotational position relative to the retaining flange.
  • the tilting disk is pivotally mounted on the retaining flange by means of integrally formed hinge bolts and corresponding bolt receptacles.
  • the retaining flange has a conduit channel corresponding both with the bottle neck and with the mouth channel on the tilting disc to discharge the liquid from the bottle through the bottle neck and through the adjoining passage channel in the mouth channel.
  • a bottle body in turn is divided into two sub-containers. These sub-containers can hold different liquids.
  • Each of the two sub-containers is assigned a separate tilting disc with a separate mouth channel as a closure element.
  • the tilting disks are synchronized so that only one tilting disk can always be opened. If one of the two tilt discs is opened, the other of the two tilt discs remains closed.
  • the rotary ring forms a common drive element.
  • two pairs of guide curves are arranged on the turning ring. These pairs lie on circular lines of different diameters, so that in each case a guide curve pair interacts with a pair of guide pins on the tilting disks.
  • the guide curves are arranged so that when opening a tilting disc, the one guide pin pair with the respectively associated guide cam pair is engaged, while the other guide cam pair is not engaged with the associated guide pin.
  • the two sub-containers are mirror images of each other. Both sub-containers then have the same volume.
  • the guide curve pairs rise in a preferred embodiment in each case in opposite directions to each other.
  • the designed as a cosmetic bottle bottle 1 in the first embodiment has in the direction of the bottle longitudinal axis 2 one above the other a bottle body 3, a rotatable relative to the bottle body 3 rotary ring 4, a rotary ring 4 supporting retaining flange 5 and a pivotally mounted on the retaining flange 5 tilting disk 6 ,
  • the tilting disk 6 is in Fig. 1 shown in its open position. This can be seen at the visible outlet 7 of the tipping disk extending in the radial direction of the mouth channel 8.
  • the rotary ring in the in Fig. 1 rotated position shown to the right.
  • the bottle body 3 has according to its open end Fig. 2 a bottleneck 10 on.
  • the bottleneck 10 carries on its outer jacket a locking lip 11 and two diametrically opposed stop jaws 12.
  • the bottle body 3 in the longitudinal direction 2 facing away from the upper head ends of the stop jaws 12 are rounded. Complementarily formed for this purpose are accordingly rounded, from a mounting collar 13, which in turn protrudes in the longitudinal direction 2 from the flange 14 of the retaining flange 5, cut recesses 15.
  • the mounting collar 13 is slipped over the bottleneck 10 for adapting the retaining flange 5.
  • the recesses 15 engage over the head ends of the stop jaws 12 and thus secure the retaining flange 5 against rotation on the bottleneck 10.
  • a tube extension 17 engages in the bottleneck 10.
  • the tube extension 17 projects as well as the mounting collar 13 in the longitudinal direction 2 of the flange 14 of the retaining flange 5.
  • the tubular extension 17 and the mounting collar 13 form a receiving groove 18 between them. In the receiving groove 18 engages the upper end of the bottle neck 10 in the final assembled state.
  • the tube extension 17 connects the retaining flange 5 also line with the bottle neck 10 and thus with the contents of the bottle 1.
  • the contents of the bottle for example, by Kochauerstülpen the bottle 1 in the longitudinal direction 2 through the bottle neck 10 from the bottle and exit into the tube extension 17th into running.
  • the bottle body 3 facing away from the retaining flange 5 is formed with the pipe extension 17 line communicating flow channel 19.
  • bolt receptacles 21 are formed in a flange 14 on both sides in the manner of a ring comprehensive border 20 bolt receptacles 21 are formed. In the bolt receptacles 21 engage on the tilting disc 6 externally molded hinge pin 22.
  • the tilting plate 6 is pivotally mounted on the retaining flange 5.
  • the beginning of the mouth channel 8 forming the mouth 23 is formed.
  • the liquid present in the bottle body 3 passes into the mouth channel 8 to leave the bottle 1 through the orifice 7.
  • the two guide pin 24 addition.
  • the guide pins 24 pass through the retaining flange 5 in the passage openings 25 in order to slide with their end faces 26 on guide surfaces 27 of guide curves 28.
  • the guide curves 28 are designed part-circular and three-dimensional.
  • the guide curves 28 are positioned on a retaining ring 29 arranged in the rotary ring 4.
  • the holding plate 29 is pierced in its center by a central opening 30. In the opening 30, two circular segment-shaped guide tracks 31 are formed.
  • the opening 30 of bottleneck 10 is penetrated and the guideways 31 abut against the outer surface of the bottle neck 10 in the region between the stop jaws 12.
  • the edges of the guide track 31 are effective as stop surfaces 32. With the stop surfaces 32, the guideways 31 can abut the stop jaws 12 laterally.
  • a protruding in the longitudinal direction 2 of the retaining plate 29 of the rotary ring 4 pin 33 engages in the final assembled state an integrally formed in the retaining flange 5 arcuate recess 34.
  • the recess 34 has in the region of their ends in each case a locking cam 35. Reached the pin 33 its respective end position in the recess 34, it is on the one hand behind the fixing of one of the locking cam 35. At the same time causes the sliding over the pin 33 via the locking cam 35 a clicking noise. This clicking sound signals the respective operator to reach the open position or closed position of the tilting disk 6.
  • the rotary ring 4 For supporting the rotary ring 4 on the retaining flange 5, the rotary ring 4 has a snap edge 36. With the help of this snap edge 36 of the rotary ring 4 is snapped to the border 20 of the retaining flange 5. The snap edge 36 and the border 20 engage in a form-fitting manner. The rotary ring 4 is rotatably mounted on the retaining flange 5.
  • the part-circular guide curves 28 each have a planar region 37 on their end sides. This planar area 37 serves in each case to prevent sliding of the end face 26 of the respective guide pin 24 on the guide curve 28 in the open or closed position of the tilting disk 6.
  • the guide curves 28 are each designed rising in the longitudinal direction 2 seen. This means that in Fig. 3 each left shown end of the guide curves 28 in the longitudinal direction 2 much higher from the retaining plate 29 protrudes than that in Fig. 3 illustrated right end of the guide curve 28th
  • the functioning of the bottle closure of the bottle 1 is as follows: In the closed position of the tilting disk 6, the end face 26 of a guide pin 24 of the tilting disk 6 rests on the flat portion 37 of the tilting disk 37 adjacent and closest to the pin 33 Fig. 3 The guide surface 26 of the other guide pin 24 rests accordingly on the arranged in the region of the directional marking 9 plan area 37 of FIG Fig. 3 Guide cam 28 shown below.
  • the tilting disc 6 is closed in this closed position. That is, when looking at the bottle 1, the outlet 7 is not visible. Rather, the tilting disc 6 closes the bottle 1 on the top plan.
  • the liquid can flow out of the bottle body 3 through the tube extension 17 and the passage channel 19 on the holding flange 5 into the mouth 23 of the mouth channel 8 and escape to the outside through the mouth 7 after flowing through the mouth channel 8.
  • the bottle according to Fig. 1 simply turned upside down so that the liquid contained in the bottle body 3 flows simply through its gravity through the tube extension 17 into the flow channel 19 to flow from the flow channel 19 through the mouth 23 through the mouth channel 8 to the bottle 1 in the mouth 7 to leave.
  • the pin 33 slides over a locking cam 35 in the recess 34 in the flange 14 of the retaining flange 5 and thus signals the user acoustically and haptically reaching the open position or the closed position.
  • the pin 33 and the respective associated locking cam 35 form a positive connection and thus an additional positional securing of the rotary ring 4 either in the open position or in the closed position of the tilting disc 6.
  • a similar rotation lock form the planar areas 37 on the guide curves 28 in cooperation with the end faces 26 of the guide pin 24.
  • the rotary ring 4 thus forms the rotary drive element for the tilting disk 6, namely for pivoting the tilting disk 6 between the in Fig. 1 illustrated open position and its closed position, not shown in the drawings. It should be noted that in the closed position, the junction 23 at the same time as a closure seal of the mouth channel 8 against the bottle neck 10 is effective.
  • the Fig. 8 - 13 show, designed as a cosmetic bottle bottle 1 'in the direction of the bottle longitudinal axis extending longitudinal direction 2 arranged one above the other a bottom ring 38, a bottle body 3, an intermediate ring 39, one opposite the bottle body 3 rotatable rotary ring 4, a rotary ring 4 superimposed retaining flange 5 and two crescent-shaped, on the retaining flange 5 pivotally mounted tilting discs 6, 6 'on.
  • the bottle body 3 is in the in Fig. 8 ff. shown second embodiment of two mirror images of each other formed sub-containers 40, 40 '.
