Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a neck finish, to a system comprising such neck finish and to a process for packaging vessels through such system.
  • neck finish 10 with means for applying a closure, such as a plug or a cover, is generally called "neck finish”.
  • a vessel such as for example a bottle, is composed of a containing body, inside which the product to be stored and delivered is contained, that
  • neck finish ends without interruptions with the portion of neck finish to which the plug or the cover is applied, and on which a warranty seal, such as a "tamper evidence", can also be found, such neck finish thereby being an integral part of the vessel itself.
  • the bottling processes with current neck finishes integral with the vessel also suffers from hygienic problems: in fact, not rarely, the appearance of mildew can occur on the neck finish, due to beer foam, beverage residuals, etc. that come out, before or during the closure application.
  • the neck finish is often subjected to overheating that generates distortions, scoring and/or other imperfections that generate severe problems for the contents and/or when applying the closure.
  • the neck finish must obviously be made of the same material of the containing body.
  • object of the present invention is solving the above prior art problems by providing a neck finish that is distinct and separated from the containing body, thereby allowing to connect such neck finish, already equipped with plug or cover, to the containing body after having filled this latter one.
  • an object of the present invention is providing a process for packaging vessels that allows replacing the type of neck finish/closure on every filling line, in a practical and inexpensive way.
  • an object of the present invention is providing a process for packaging vessels that does not generate overheating on the neck finish.
  • FIG. 1 shows a side view of a preferred embodiment of the neck finish according to the present invention.
  • the neck finish 1 is composed of at least one body 3 internally defining at least one passing duct 4 and having at least one surface portion thereof equipped with connecting means 5 of at least one plug or cover 7, such body 3 being further equipped with at least one terminal connecting edge 9 adapted to be connected to at least one corresponding connecting edge 11 of at least one vessel 10.
  • connecting means 5 of the plug or cover 7 can be made in several ways, such as all those known per se in the art.
  • connecting means 5 with their related plugs/covers 7:
  • connecting means 5 comprising three threads 6 arranged on the external surface of the body 3 for screwing a plug 7 with capsule in Sport version ( Figure 2a) ;
  • connecting means 5 comprising three threads 6, type 28, arranged on the external surface of the body 3 for the application under pressure of a plug 7 ( Figure 2b) ; connecting means 5 comprising at least one groove 8 arranged on the perimeter on the external surface of the body 3 for the application under pressure of a plug 7 ( Figure 2c), in particular for oil vessels;
  • connecting means 5 comprising a single thread 2 of the Short PCO type arranged on the external surface of the body 3 for screwing a plug 7 with capsule in Flat version ( Figure 2d) , in particular for vessels for beverages with gas;
  • connecting means 5 comprising three threads 6, type 28, arranged on the external surface of the body 3 for screwing a plug 7 with capsule in Flat version ( Figure 2e) , in particular for vessels for beverages without gas; connecting means 5 comprising a single thread 2 of the BPF or PCO type arranged on the external surface of the body 3 for screwing a plug 7 with a capsule in Flat version ( Figure 2f) , in particular for vessels for beverages with or without gas.
  • the system according to the present invention comprises at least one neck finish 1 as previously described and at least one vessel 10 composed of at least one containing body 13, inside which a product to be stored and delivered is contained, such containing body 13 being equipped with at least one connecting edge 11 adapted to be connected to the respective terminal connecting edge 9 of the body 3 of the neck finish 1.
  • the neck finish 1 according to the present invention can be connected to the vessel 10 by joining the terminal connecting edge 9 of the body 3 to the connecting edge 11 of the containing body 13 through any technique per se known in the art.
  • the terminal connecting edge 9 can be connected to the connecting edge 11 through any mechanical/physical method, such as for example welding or heat-welding, that does not provide for the use of any type of gluing substances.
  • both the neck finish 1 and the vessel 10 can be made of any material suitable for this purpose; for example, both the neck finish 1 and the vessel 10 could be made of the same material, such as for example a plastic or glass material. Alternatively, advantageously, the neck finish 1 and the vessel 10 can be made of mutually different materials, improving the possible guarantees of application and/or performance of existing vessels .
  • the present invention further refers to a process for packaging, using the previously-described system.
  • the process according to the present invention comprises the steps of:
  • At least one neck finish 1 composed of at least one body 3 internally defining at least one passing duct 4 and having at least one surface portion thereof equipped with connecting means 5 of at least one plug or a cover 7, such body 3 being further equipped with at least one terminal connecting edge 9 and such connecting means 5 being used by such plug or cover 7;
  • the neck finish 1, the system and the process according to the present invention by providing the physical separation between neck finish 1 and vessel 10 and their union only at the end of filling the containing body 13 (among the other, with the neck finish 1 already equipped with its related plug or cover 7), allow obtaining, separately or jointly, the following numerous technical advantages:
  • the packaging process does not require any more the use of lines equipped with screwing devices or devices for applying under pressure plugs and covers: it is thereby possible to use, in a cheap way, different arrangements of neck finish 1 according to the present invention, for example depending on the type of product (with gas, without gas, beverages, beer, milk, etc.) contained inside the vessel 10 and/or on different filling lines;
  • the neck finish 1 is not subjected to overheating due to screwing the plug/cover.
