Definitions

  • the invention relates to the lid of a container, in particular a beverage can, with at least one outlet opening penetrating the lid mirror, which is reclosable via at least one closure element, said at least one closure element via an actuating element from a closed position, wherein the at least one outlet opening is closed , in an open position in which the outlet opening is at least partially exposed, is movable.
  • Containers of the type described above are produced, for example, as resealable beverage cans.
  • an outlet opening is provided in the lid mirror, which, like the rest of the metal can, is usually made of aluminum or tinplate.
  • This opening is closed by a closure element.
  • This closure element is moved by an actuating element, for example by means of a flap or a (rotary) slide from a closed position to an open position, whereby the outlet opening for emptying the can is exposed and closed again after the first opening.
  • a closure element can be removed, which is made of plastic and has a ring-encircling gas and liquid-tight seal.
  • a closure element is expensive to manufacture because of its two-component structure (two different plastics - combining a load-bearing, hard component and a soft, sealing component in a single injection-molded component).
  • this technology allows only limited design options of the closure part, because this particular requirements of the plastic injection molding process with respect to parting planes, sprue positions, wall thickness ratios, etc. must be followed. It would be cheaper to realize the sealing function not by a two-component structure, but by means of a more readily available and thus more economical planar sealing component of industrially established standard production processes or semi-finished products.
  • a cover of the type mentioned in that at least one planar sealing element is disposed between the cover mirror and closure element, and at least one sealing region is provided on the closure element, which cooperates with the at least one flat sealing element when closing the pouring opening.
  • Flat sealing elements so-called “liners” are known, for example, from caps made of bottles. These are substantially flexible films that prevent the escape of liquid and / or gas, especially carbon dioxide from the bottle.
  • At least one sealing area in particular a sealing edge is provided on the closure element, which is pressed in the closed position of the closure element to the flat sealing element, and thus seals the outlet opening and prevents leakage of the contents of the beverage can.
  • the at least one closure element and the flat sealing element are arranged on the underside of the lid mirror, wherein the at least one closure element cooperates with the flat sealing element when closing the pouring opening, and particularly preferably the at least one sealing region on the underside of the lid Lid mirror facing surface of the closure element is arranged.
  • the closure element from the open position in the closed position and from the closed position in the open position is pivotable.
  • the at least one sealing region in particular at least one sealing edge, is pressed essentially normal against the planar sealing element when the closure element is moved in the closed position, so that a precisely defined sealing of the pouring opening is obtained.
  • the at least one sealing area the at least one pouring opening wholly when the closure element is in the closed position.
  • the sealing region extends at a distance from the edges of the pouring opening, which is elliptical, for example.
  • the sealing area in particular a sealing edge, have a uniform (substantially constant) distance from the edge of the pouring opening, optionally corresponding to other openings. Since the at least one sealing region is pressed against the surface of the planar sealing element when the closure element is in the closed position, the sealing element must be made of an at least partially elastic material.
  • the flat sealing element is designed as a film, in particular as a foam film or rubber film.
  • planar sealing element completely covers the underside of the cover, wherein only the region of the pouring opening and optionally openings for the arrangement of an actuating means remain uncovered.
  • the flat film is smaller than the surface of the lid and thus covers its underside only partially, but the pouring opening is in turn completely surrounded by the flat sealing element.
  • the flat sealing element is applied by means of insertion, gluing, printing or casting on the underside of the lid of the container.
  • planar sealing element covers the cover mirror virtually entirely, but is not fixed to the cover over the entire surface, but only in small, spaced-apart areas.
  • a particularly cost-effective production of the lid according to the invention is given when the closure means and / or the actuating means are made of plastic, wherein the production is simple and inexpensive by means of injection molding in large quantities.
  • the cover mirror may have a ventilation opening and the closure element may be provided with a passage opening aligned with the ventilation opening, wherein the ventilation opening and / or the passage opening can be closed and opened fluid-tight with a pin.
  • the pin tapers conically in the direction of the ventilation opening.
  • the ventilation opening or the passage opening can be sealed tight by pushing the pin.
  • the pin may be part of the actuating element or provided separately, for example as part of a pivotable tab.
  • the passage opening may comprise a sealing ring, in particular a hose section or an O-ring, for fluid-tight closing of the ventilation opening and / or the passage opening with the pin.
  • the pin may have on its outer side a sealing ring for fluid-tight closing of the ventilation opening and / or the passage opening with the pin, wherein the sealing ring preferably comprises a hose section or an O-ring.
  • the passage opening can have a holding region, in particular a rivet head, which prevents slipping out of the sealing ring; and / or the pin may have a holding region, in particular a rivet head, which prevents the sealing ring from slipping off.
