Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a screw cap comprising a base having a threaded cylindrical tubular portion and a terminal flange for attachment to a closed container of sheet material and a cutting sleeve threadedly connected to the thread of the base.
  • Screw caps of the type mentioned are already known since the late 80s. Such a closure is shown, for example, in EP 0 328 652 A. Further developments thereof are shown, for example, by US Pat. No. 5,147,070, WO 99/62776, WO 2004/083055 and many others.
  • the cutting sleeve is driven by drivers, which are attached to the underside of the top surface of the screw cap.
  • Closures of this type have prevailed in the market and are today an integral part of closed containers made of film material. These containers were heretofore essentially made of laminated film material consisting of a combination of plastic films, cardboard layers, an aluminum barrier layer and an inner sealing layer of plastic film. Containers of such multilayer film material are relatively pressure resistant and have been used mainly for the beverage market.
  • Dosierver anywayn On the market, a variety of different forms of Dosierver anywayn are present, which have a metering, in which the metering can be opened or closed according to more or less or in which the access to the metering, for example, with a valve piston more or less open can.
  • Screw caps of the type mentioned which have a cutting sleeve with which the container is mounted on the screw, cut open and thus can be opened, so far, provided with dosing, not known. It is now the object of the present invention to remedy this situation.
  • Such a screw cap is preferably designed so that the cutting sleeve is designed double-walled below the lateral metering with a thread-free inner shell wall with a terminal cutting edge and an outer shell wall with internal thread, which meshes with the thread on the lower part, and that the outer shell wall in the axial direction shorter than the height of the cylindrical pipe section of the lower part.
  • Figure 1 shows the inventive screw cap perspective view before its first use.
  • Figure 2 shows the same screw of a perspective exploded view, while
  • Figure 3 shows the closure according to Figure 1 in a diametrical
  • FIG. 4 shows the same view of the closure in the maximum open position.
  • the self-opening screw cap is designated overall by 1. However, one could call the same closure as well as dosing, as this is the combination of a self-opening screw cap and a DosierverInstitutes.
  • the inventive screw cap consists of four components, namely a lower part 2, a cutting sleeve 3, a spacer means 4 and a valve piston 5, which is designed in the uppermost region as a rotary handle, wherein in the assembled state, only this part of the valve piston is visible.
  • the interest here screw is, as already mentioned, attached to a closed container made of foil.
  • the lower part 2 has a radial outwardly projecting, circumferential flange 21.
  • the cutting sleeve 3 has a lateral metering opening 31, which is realized here relatively large as a square window. Before the first use of the distance-holding means 4 is still present, which can be realized either as a spacer ring or as a guarantee strip 40. From the valve piston here on the one hand, the terminal top surface 52 and on the other hand, the circumferential, the cutting sleeve in the upper region cross skirt 53 can be seen, which serves as a grip surface and is provided with a ribbing 54 accordingly.
  • the lower part 2 consists of a pipe section 20 at the bottom end a radially outwardly directed flange 21 is integrally formed. On the outside of the pipe section 20, an external thread 22 is attached.
  • the lower part 2 may be glued or welded onto the closed container.
  • the closed container is a tubular bag made of plastic film, it is preferable to weld the lower part 2 onto this tubular bag. This is usually done with an ultrasonic welding.
  • About the pipe section 20 of the lower part 2 can now be a spacer means 4 are pushed which approximately bridges the distance between the flange 21 and the external thread 22.
  • the spacer holding means 4 is a spacer ring which can be pushed over the external thread with slight elongation. Before the first opening of this spacer ring 40 must be removed. For this purpose, a tear flap 41 is formed.
  • the cutting sleeve 3 consists of a cylinder 30 which is open on both sides and has a lateral metering opening 31.
  • the area above the metering opening 31 is referred to herein as the valve cylinder area.
  • Below the metering opening 31, the cutting sleeve 3 is double-walled. This double-walled area is designated 33.
  • the inner jacket wall which is not visible here, represents the linear continuation of the valve cylinder region 32.
  • This inner jacket wall 35 has at the lower end cutting means 38, by means of which the closed container, on which the closure is mounted, can be cut open. Before the first use of the screw cap, these cutting means 38 lie completely in the region of the tube section 20 of the lower part 2. In FIG.
  • the outer jacket wall 34 can be seen in particular from the double-walled region 33.
  • This outer jacket wall 34 runs concentrically around the inner jacket wall 35.
  • the outer jacket wall 34 has an internal thread 36 which is not recognizable in this figure and which is suitable for the external thread 22 of the lower part 2.
  • the cutting means 38 can not inadvertently come into contact with the container. Only when this spacer ring 40 has been removed, the cutting sleeve 3 can move downwardly screwed and thus open the still closed container. To do this, turn the cutting sleeve 3 clockwise downward.
  • the double-walled area serves as a grip surface. Also not visible in FIG. 2 is the internal thread in the valve cylinder region 32.
  • the valve piston 5 is designed as a hollow cylinder 55 and has at its upper end an external thread 56 which mates with the internal thread 39 of the cutting sleeve.
  • the hollow cylinder 55 of the valve piston 5 has a circumferential stop lip 51 which ensures that the valve piston 5 can not be completely unscrewed out of the cutting sleeve 3. In the maximum open position, this circumferential abutment lip 51 abuts against the upper edge of the lateral metering opening.
  • a circumferential groove may be present, in which the stopper lip engages in the uppermost position.
  • the external thread 56 runs on the hollow cylinder 55 in the internal thread 39 of the cutting sleeve 3 above the metering opening 31.
  • an inwardly directed circumferential sealing bead 60 is attached to the cutting sleeve 3.
  • the valve piston 5 can be turned upwards until the circumferential abutment lip 51 abuts the upper edge of the metering opening 31.
  • the metering opening 31 diametrically opposite a closed formation 61 is provided.
  • This closed formation 61 is formed by the axially extended outer shell wall 34 at the level of the upper edge of the metering 31, an inwardly directed shoulder 62, the connection of this outer shell wall is made with the upper portion of the cylinder 30 open on both sides.
  • the outer jacket wall 34 can also be raised generally and peripherally up to said shoulder 62 which extends at the level of the upper edge of the metering opening.
  • this is not suitable, since in this case a residual volume would exist below this shoulder 62 when closing, from which a considerable amount of residue would still flow after closure.
  • the closed configuration 61 selected here such an afterflow can not take place. Also In terms of injection molding technology, the one shown here is preferred
  • Embodiment with the metering 31 realize diametrically opposed closed design 61 with a single lateral slide.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une fermeture à vis (1) permettant d'ouvrir, par autodécoupage, un sachet tubulaire sur lequel est montée la fermeture à vis (1) et permettant simultanément de distribuer le produit de manière dosée à partir d'une ouverture de dosage (31). Cette fermeture à vis (1) comprend une partie inférieure (2) sur laquelle est placé un élément d'écartement (4) servant pratiquement d'élément de sécurité pour le transport et sur laquelle est vissée une douille coupante (3) comportant une ouverture de dosage latérale (31). Cette douille coupante (3) permet d'ouvrir le contenant et de distribuer son contenu de manière dosée au moyen d'un piston à soupape (5) qui est guidé de manière à pouvoir se visser dans la douille coupante (3). À l'état fermé, le piston à soupape (5) vient se placer sous l'ouverture de dosage (31) dans le cylindre (30), ouvert des deux côtés, de la douille coupante (3) et assure l'étanchéité de ce dernier par rapport au contenant qui est soudé sur le collet (21) de la partie inférieure (2).
