Definitions
- the present invention relates to the technical field of containers comprising a container and a lid, designed to receive food.
- the present invention relates more particularly to containers comprising a container whose upper edge is devoid of specific conformation for the attachment of the lid.
- An object of the present embodiment is to provide a container having a substantially sealed closure, comprising a container whose upper edge is devoid of specific conformation for the attachment of the cover, which does not require precise geometric tolerances.
- a container comprising a container and a lid, the container having a side wall having an upper edge forming an inner bead, the lid having a closure wall carrying an outer annular protrusion able to rest on the inner bead when the lid is placed on the container, the closure wall having an annular support zone resting on the upper edge when the lid closes the container, the closure wall having an outer annular housing arranged between the outer annular protuberance and the zone annular support, because the outer annular protuberance and the outer annular housing are formed on a lower lip from the closure wall, the lower lip can be elastically deformed to accommodate the inner bead in the housing external ring.
- the lower lip thus bears inside the container and plates the annular support zone of the lid on the upper edge of the container.
- a double annular support can be obtained on the upper edge of the container and under the inner bead of the container. This promotes obtaining a satisfactory closure of the container, especially when the upper edge of the container has significant geometric tolerances.
- the cover has a lower edge arranged outside the annular support zone. This arrangement makes it possible to lift the periphery of the lid to disengage the outer annular housing from the lid of the inner bead of the container.
- the lower border surrounds the annular support zone. This arrangement helps to stiffen the periphery of the lid and promotes a good closure of the lid. This arrangement also facilitates the release of the outer annular housing of the lid.
- the upper edge forms an outer bead
- the closure wall has an inner annular housing formed in the lower edge
- the outer bead is arranged in the inner annular housing when the lid closes the container.
- This arrangement further contributes to pressing the annular support zone of the lid on the upper edge of the container.
- An annular support can be obtained not only on the upper edge of the container and under the inner bead of the container, but also under the outer bead of the container.
- the closure of the container is further improved.
- the lower edge forms the periphery of the lid.
- the lower lip extends back from the lower edge.
- This arrangement also contributes to the stiffening of the peripheral portion of the lid and facilitates the removal of the lid.
- This arrangement also allows the lid to be placed on a work surface without the parts of the lid in contact with the container touching the work surface.
- the closure wall has a concave central zone surrounded by the lower lip. This arrangement makes it easier to remove the lid by avoiding or limiting the suction effect after the cooling of a preparation contained in the container closed by the lid.
- the closure wall has a convex annular zone arranged between the concave central zone and the lower lip. This arrangement contributes to the stiffening of the peripheral portion of the lid and facilitates the removal of the lid.
- the side wall has a reentrant upper part. This arrangement makes it easier to hook the lid.
- the upper edge defines a substantially circular upper opening. This arrangement allows to promote a good attachment of the lid inside the container.
- the container is made of glass.
- the lid is mono-material. This arrangement allows for an economic cover.
- the lid is made of semi-rigid plastic material, for example low density polyethylene.
- the domestic electric yogurt maker illustrated on the figure 1 comprises a heating base 1 surmounted by a cover 2, the heating base 1 and the cover 2 forming an enclosure 3 housing at least one container 4.
- the enclosure 3 houses for example seven containers 4.
- the container 4 comprises a container 10, better visible on the figures 3 , 5 and 6 , and a cover 20, better visible on the figures 2 , 4 and 6 .
- the container 10 can be made of any type of material suitable for food contact, preferably in transparent material.
- the container 10 is for example made of glass.
- the container 10 has a side wall 11 having an upper edge 12. More particularly in the embodiment illustrated in the figures, the side wall 11 has a reentrant upper portion 13. The upper edge 12 defines an upper opening 14 substantially circular.
- the upper edge 12 forms an inner bead 15.
- the side wall 11 thus has a lower retaining inner rim 17 under the inner bead 15.
- the upper edge 12 also forms an outer bead 16.
- the side wall 11 thus has an outer rim lower retainer 18 under the outer bead 16.
- the lid 20 is made at least partially of elastically deformable material.
- the lid 20 may be mono-material or not.
- the lid 20 may in particular be made of semi-rigid plastic material, for example low density polyethylene.
- the lid 20 has a closure wall 21 having an annular support zone 22 resting on the upper edge 12 when the lid 20 closes the container 10, as shown in the Figures 4 and 6 .
- closure wall 21 carries an external annular protuberance 23 which can rest on the inner bead 15 when the lid 20 is placed on the container 10. In this configuration the lid 20 does not close the container 10.
- the closure wall 21 has an outer annular housing 24 arranged between the outer annular protuberance 23 and the annular support zone 22.
- the outer annular protuberance 23 and the outer annular housing 24 are formed on a lower lip 30 issuing from the closure wall 21.
- the lower lip 30 is formed by a lower annular wall having a free end 32 and another end extending the wall shutter 21 of the cover 20.
- the lower lip 30 has an outer annular conformation 31 forming a threshold between the outer annular protuberance 23 and the outer annular housing 24.
- the lower lip 30 can be elastically deformed to accommodate the inner bead 15 of the container 10 in the outer annular housing 24 of the cover 20, as shown in the figure 6 .
- the cover 20 has a lower edge 40 arranged outside the annular support zone 22.
- the lower edge 40 extends from the closure wall 21 and surrounds the annular support zone 22.
- the lower edge 40 surrounds the lower lip 30. More particularly as visible on the figure 4 , the lip lower 30 extends recessed with respect to the lower edge 40; the lower edge 40 forms the periphery of the cover 20.
- the closure wall 21 has an inner annular housing 25. As visible on the figure 4 , the inner annular housing 25 is formed in the lower edge 40 and extends facing the outer annular housing 24.
- the lid 20 thus has a peripheral groove 26 extending between the lower edge 40 and the lower lip 30.
- the lower edge 40 has an internal annular conformation 41 forming a threshold surrounding the inner annular housing 25.
- the inner annular conformation 41 and the outer annular conformation 31 thus define a threshold that the outer bead 16 and the inner bead 15 of the container 10 must cross. by elastic deformation of the cover 20, in particular by elastic deformation of the lower lip 30 and the lower edge 40.
- the outer bead 16 of the container 10 is arranged in the inner annular housing 25 when the lid 20 closes the container 10, as shown in FIG. figure 6 . If necessary the lower edge 40 may be elastically deformed to engage the outer bead 16 in the inner annular housing 25.
- the closure wall 21 has a concave central zone 50 surrounded by the lower lip 30.
- the closure wall 21 has a convex annular zone 51 arranged between the concave central zone 50 and the lower lip 30.
- the apparatus according to the invention is used and operates in the following manner.
- the user engages the lower lip 30 of the lid 20 inside the upper edge 12 of the container 10 and presses the periphery of the lid 20 to engage the upper edge 12 of the container 10 in the peripheral groove 26 of the container cover 20.
- the lower retaining inner rim 17 is thus housed in the outer annular housing 24 of the lip lower 30 and the outer lower retaining lip 18 is thus housed in the inner annular housing 25 of the lower edge 40.
- the user raises the bottom edge 40 on at least a portion of the periphery of the lid 20, if necessary by turning the bottom edge 40, to disengage the inner bead 15 from the upper edge 12 of the container 10 of the external annular conformation 31 of the lower lip 30 of the lid 20.
- the lower edge 40 is not necessarily annular.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne le domaine technique des contenants comportant un récipient et un couvercle, prévus pour recevoir des aliments.The present invention relates to the technical field of containers comprising a container and a lid, designed to receive food.
La présente invention concerne plus particulièrement les contenants comportant un récipient dont le bord supérieur est dépourvu de conformation spécifique pour l'accrochage du couvercle.The present invention relates more particularly to containers comprising a container whose upper edge is devoid of specific conformation for the attachment of the lid.
Le document
Un objet de la présente réalisation est de proposer un contenant présentant une fermeture sensiblement étanche, comportant un récipient dont le bord supérieur est dépourvu de conformation spécifique pour l'accrochage du couvercle, qui ne nécessite pas de tolérances géométriques précises.An object of the present embodiment is to provide a container having a substantially sealed closure, comprising a container whose upper edge is devoid of specific conformation for the attachment of the cover, which does not require precise geometric tolerances.
Cet objet est atteint avec un contenant comprenant un récipient et un couvercle, le récipient comportant une paroi latérale présentant un bord supérieur formant un bourrelet intérieur, le couvercle comportant une paroi d'obturation portant une protubérance annulaire externe pouvant reposer sur le bourrelet intérieur lorsque le couvercle est posé sur le récipient, la paroi d'obturation présentant une zone annulaire d'appui reposant sur le bord supérieur lorsque le couvercle ferme le récipient, la paroi d'obturation présentant un logement annulaire externe agencé entre la protubérance annulaire externe et la zone annulaire d'appui, du fait que la protubérance annulaire externe et le logement annulaire externe sont formés sur une lèvre inférieure issue de la paroi d'obturation, la lèvre inférieure pouvant être déformée élastiquement pour loger le bourrelet intérieur dans le logement annulaire externe. La lèvre inférieure vient ainsi en appui à l'intérieur du récipient et plaque la zone annulaire d'appui du couvercle sur le bord supérieur du récipient. Un double appui annulaire peut être obtenu sur le bord supérieur du récipient et sous le bourrelet intérieur du récipient. Ceci favorise l'obtention d'une fermeture satisfaisante du contenant notamment lorsque le bord supérieur du récipient présente des tolérances géométriques importantes.This object is achieved with a container comprising a container and a lid, the container having a side wall having an upper edge forming an inner bead, the lid having a closure wall carrying an outer annular protrusion able to rest on the inner bead when the lid is placed on the container, the closure wall having an annular support zone resting on the upper edge when the lid closes the container, the closure wall having an outer annular housing arranged between the outer annular protuberance and the zone annular support, because the outer annular protuberance and the outer annular housing are formed on a lower lip from the closure wall, the lower lip can be elastically deformed to accommodate the inner bead in the housing external ring. The lower lip thus bears inside the container and plates the annular support zone of the lid on the upper edge of the container. A double annular support can be obtained on the upper edge of the container and under the inner bead of the container. This promotes obtaining a satisfactory closure of the container, especially when the upper edge of the container has significant geometric tolerances.
Avantageusement encore, le couvercle comporte une bordure inférieure agencée à l'extérieur de la zone annulaire d'appui. Cette disposition permet de soulever la périphérie du couvercle pour dégager le logement annulaire externe du couvercle du bourrelet intérieur du récipient.Advantageously, the cover has a lower edge arranged outside the annular support zone. This arrangement makes it possible to lift the periphery of the lid to disengage the outer annular housing from the lid of the inner bead of the container.
Avantageusement alors, la bordure inférieure entoure la zone annulaire d'appui. Cette disposition contribue à rigidifier la périphérie du couvercle et favorise une bonne fermeture du couvercle. Cette disposition permet aussi de faciliter le dégagement du logement annulaire externe du couvercle.Advantageously then, the lower border surrounds the annular support zone. This arrangement helps to stiffen the periphery of the lid and promotes a good closure of the lid. This arrangement also facilitates the release of the outer annular housing of the lid.
Avantageusement alors, le bord supérieur forme un bourrelet extérieur, la paroi d'obturation présente un logement annulaire interne formé dans la bordure inférieure, et le bourrelet extérieur est agencé dans le logement annulaire interne lorsque le couvercle ferme le récipient. Cette disposition contribue encore davantage à plaquer la zone annulaire d'appui du couvercle sur le bord supérieur du récipient. Un appui annulaire peut être obtenu non seulement sur le bord supérieur du récipient et sous le bourrelet intérieur du récipient, mais aussi sous le bourrelet extérieur du récipient. La fermeture du contenant est encore améliorée.Advantageously then, the upper edge forms an outer bead, the closure wall has an inner annular housing formed in the lower edge, and the outer bead is arranged in the inner annular housing when the lid closes the container. This arrangement further contributes to pressing the annular support zone of the lid on the upper edge of the container. An annular support can be obtained not only on the upper edge of the container and under the inner bead of the container, but also under the outer bead of the container. The closure of the container is further improved.
Selon une forme de réalisation, la bordure inférieure forme la périphérie du couvercle.According to one embodiment, the lower edge forms the periphery of the lid.
Avantageusement encore, la lèvre inférieure s'étend en retrait par rapport à la bordure inférieure. Cette disposition contribue aussi à la rigidification de la partie périphérique du couvercle et permet de faciliter le retrait du couvercle. Cette disposition permet en outre de poser le couvercle sur un plan de travail sans que les parties du couvercle en contact avec le récipient ne touchent le plan de travail.Advantageously, the lower lip extends back from the lower edge. This arrangement also contributes to the stiffening of the peripheral portion of the lid and facilitates the removal of the lid. This arrangement also allows the lid to be placed on a work surface without the parts of the lid in contact with the container touching the work surface.
Avantageusement encore, la paroi d'obturation présente une zone centrale concave entourée par la lèvre inférieure. Cette disposition permet de faciliter le retrait du couvercle en évitant ou limitant l'effet ventouse après le refroidissement d'une préparation contenue dans le récipient fermé par le couvercle.Advantageously, the closure wall has a concave central zone surrounded by the lower lip. This arrangement makes it easier to remove the lid by avoiding or limiting the suction effect after the cooling of a preparation contained in the container closed by the lid.
Avantageusement alors, la paroi d'obturation présente une zone annulaire convexe agencée entre la zone centrale concave et la lèvre inférieure. Cette disposition contribue à la rigidification de la partie périphérique du couvercle et permet de faciliter le retrait du couvercle.Advantageously then, the closure wall has a convex annular zone arranged between the concave central zone and the lower lip. This arrangement contributes to the stiffening of the peripheral portion of the lid and facilitates the removal of the lid.
Avantageusement encore, la paroi latérale présente une partie supérieure rentrante. Cette disposition permet de faciliter l'accrochage du couvercle.Advantageously, the side wall has a reentrant upper part. This arrangement makes it easier to hook the lid.
Avantageusement encore, le bord supérieur définit une ouverture supérieure sensiblement circulaire. Cette disposition permet de favoriser un bon accrochage du couvercle à l'intérieur du récipient.Advantageously, the upper edge defines a substantially circular upper opening. This arrangement allows to promote a good attachment of the lid inside the container.
Selon une forme de réalisation avantageuse, le récipient est réalisé en verre.According to an advantageous embodiment, the container is made of glass.
Selon une forme de réalisation avantageuse, le couvercle est mono-matière. Cette disposition permet de réaliser un couvercle économique.According to an advantageous embodiment, the lid is mono-material. This arrangement allows for an economic cover.
Avantageusement, le couvercle est réalisé en matière plastique semi-rigide, par exemple en polyéthylène basse densité.Advantageously, the lid is made of semi-rigid plastic material, for example low density polyethylene.

La yaourtière électrique domestique illustrée sur la
Le contenant 4 comprend un récipient 10, mieux visible sur les
Le récipient 10 peut être réalisé en tout type de matériau apte au contact alimentaire, avantageusement en matériau transparent. Le récipient 10 est par exemple réalisé en verre.The
Le récipient 10 comporte une paroi latérale 11 présentant un bord supérieur 12. Plus particulièrement dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré sur les figures, la paroi latérale 11 présente une partie supérieure rentrante 13. Le bord supérieur 12 définit une ouverture supérieure 14 sensiblement circulaire.The
Tel que mieux visible sur la
Le couvercle 20 est réalisé au moins partiellement en matériau déformable élastiquement. Le couvercle 20 peut être mono-matière ou non. Le couvercle 20 peut notamment être réalisé en matière plastique semi-rigide, par exemple en polyéthylène basse densité.The
Le couvercle 20 comporte une paroi d'obturation 21 présentant une zone annulaire d'appui 22 reposant sur le bord supérieur 12 lorsque le couvercle 20 ferme le récipient 10, tel que représenté sur les
De plus la paroi d'obturation 21 porte une protubérance annulaire externe 23 pouvant reposer sur le bourrelet intérieur 15 lorsque le couvercle 20 est posé sur le récipient 10. Dans cette configuration le couvercle 20 n'obture pas le récipient 10.In addition, the
La paroi d'obturation 21 présente un logement annulaire externe 24 agencé entre la protubérance annulaire externe 23 et la zone annulaire d'appui 22.The
La protubérance annulaire externe 23 et le logement annulaire externe 24 sont formés sur une lèvre inférieure 30 issue de la paroi d'obturation 21. La lèvre inférieure 30 est formée par une paroi annulaire inférieure présentant une extrémité libre 32 et une autre extrémité prolongeant la paroi d'obturation 21 du couvercle 20.The outer
La lèvre inférieure 30 présente une conformation annulaire externe 31 formant un seuil entre la protubérance annulaire externe 23 et le logement annulaire externe 24. La lèvre inférieure 30 peut être déformée élastiquement pour loger le bourrelet intérieur 15 du récipient 10 dans le logement annulaire externe 24 du couvercle 20, tel que représenté sur la
Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré sur les figures, le couvercle 20 comporte une bordure inférieure 40 agencée à l'extérieur de la zone annulaire d'appui 22. La bordure inférieure 40 s'étend à partir de la paroi d'obturation 21 et entoure la zone annulaire d'appui 22. Ainsi la bordure inférieure 40 entoure la lèvre inférieure 30. Plus particulièrement tel que visible sur la
La paroi d'obturation 21 présente un logement annulaire interne 25. Tel que visible sur la
La bordure inférieure 40 présente une conformation annulaire interne 41 formant un seuil entourant le logement annulaire interne 25. La conformation annulaire interne 41 et la conformation annulaire externe 31 définissent ainsi un seuil que le bourrelet extérieur 16 et le bourrelet intérieur 15 du récipient 10 doivent franchir par déformation élastique du couvercle 20, notamment par déformation élastique de la lèvre inférieure 30 et de la bordure inférieure 40.The
Le bourrelet extérieur 16 du récipient 10 est agencé dans le logement annulaire interne 25 lorsque le couvercle 20 ferme le récipient 10, tel que représenté sur la
La paroi d'obturation 21 présente une zone centrale concave 50 entourée par la lèvre inférieure 30. La paroi d'obturation 21 présente une zone annulaire convexe 51 agencée entre la zone centrale concave 50 et la lèvre inférieure 30.The
L'appareil selon l'invention s'utilise et fonctionne de la manière suivante.The apparatus according to the invention is used and operates in the following manner.
Pour fermer le contenant 4, l'utilisateur engage la lèvre inférieure 30 du couvercle 20 à l'intérieur du bord supérieur 12 du récipient 10 et presse la périphérie du couvercle 20 pour engager le bord supérieur 12 du récipient 10 dans la gorge périphérique 26 du couvercle 20. Le rebord intérieur de retenue inférieure 17 est ainsi logé dans le logement annulaire externe 24 de la lèvre inférieure 30 et le rebord extérieur de retenue inférieure 18 est ainsi logé dans le logement annulaire interne 25 de la bordure inférieure 40.To close the
Pour ouvrir le contenant 4, l'utilisateur soulève la bordure inférieure 40 sur au moins une partie de la périphérie du couvercle 20, si nécessaire en retournant la bordure inférieure 40, pour dégager le bourrelet intérieur 15 du bord supérieur 12 du récipient 10 de la conformation annulaire externe 31 de la lèvre inférieure 30 du couvercle 20.To open the
A titre de variante, la bordure inférieure 40 n'est pas nécessairement annulaire.Alternatively, the
A titre de variante, d'autres moyens que la bordure inférieure 40 peuvent être envisagés pour dégager le bourrelet intérieur 15 du bord supérieur 12 du récipient 10 de la conformation annulaire externe 31 de la lèvre inférieure 30 du couvercle 20, notamment un organe de préhension issu de la périphérie du couvercle 20.Alternatively, other means than the
La présente invention n'est nullement limitée à l'exemple de réalisation décrit et à ses variantes, mais englobe de nombreuses modifications dans le cadre des revendications.The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described and its variants, but encompasses many modifications within the scope of the claims.
