Definitions

  • the invention relates to a lid made of a paper material or a paper-like material for a beverage cup, a cup assembly with a cup and a lid, and a method for producing a lid.
  • Lid for beverage cups have established themselves, for example, in the disposable sector, in particular in the catering industry, in order to avoid accidental spillage of drinks and at the same time to allow drinking through a drinking opening in the lid.
  • covers are made of plastic, meanwhile, however, more lids are coming from renewable resources such as paper used.
  • a common feature known cover made of paper material is that a cover plate rests on a mouth roll of a cup, so that the lid is supported when pressed on a cup on the mouth roll and thus can not continue to slip. Such an embodiment is sufficient for most applications. This is especially true when the cup is filled with a common beverage such as a carbonated soft drink or a hot beverage such as coffee.
  • lids of paper material are not suitable for drinks, however, which project beyond the mouth roll. This occurs, for example, in a cappuccino, which is provided above with frothed milk. However, it would be desirable to be able to close a cup of paper or paper-like material with a lid even with such drinks.
  • paper, cardboard or cardboard As a paper material or paper-like material, for example, paper, cardboard or cardboard is considered.
  • paper, cardboard or cardboard can be present in flat segments and these flat segments can then be wound on the one hand to form a sleeve with a circumferential wall and also be deformed into a cup-shaped cover element, for example.
  • the paper material is coated liquid-tight.
  • plastic material which is present in a planar manner is also considered, for example, if it is processed in the same way or at least in a similar manner as paper material to form a cup or a lid.
  • Flat plastic materials are, for example, also plastic laminates.
  • the sheet-like plastic material which is in segmental form, is also wound around a mandrel and connected in the region of the overlap to form a, in particular conical, sleeve.
  • a cup-shaped bottom or a cup-shaped cover element can be formed from the sheet-like plastic material by a circular blank in its edge region against a bottom surface is folded slightly vertically upwards.
  • the present invention can be used for paper-like plastic materials to be processed, but it is not specifically designed for paper-like plastic materials to be processed but can of course be used with considerable advantages for paper material.
  • the circumferential wall is used as a supporting element for the cover plate, so that the cover plate can be arranged clearly above the mouth roll or above the cup rim.
  • coffee specialties such as cappuccino can be offered in the field of disposable cups, as they are used in particular in the catering industry and still be achieved with a lid connected security.
  • Paper or paper-like material is printable at high quality and at the same time low cost, for example by screen printing.
  • the lid according to the invention is easy to stack, easy to unstack and has a drinking opening and optionally a centrally arranged filling opening.
  • the cover plate can be provided with a drinking trough.
  • the cover plate therefore does not have to be completely flat.
  • the cover plate may also be formed obliquely to the attachment surface, or to the top of the mouth roll of a cup.
  • cover plate element and the wall element are designed separately, so that the cover consists of at least two parts. They can then be glued together and / or sealed, for example.
  • the cover plate element and / or the wall element are each formed from a renewable raw material, for example made of paper or cardboard. Preferably, this is a material which is designed or equipped so that it does not get soaked in typical uses.
  • the cover plate and the wall element may have different wall thicknesses and / or consist of different materials.
  • the lid can be made, for example, round. However, it can also be designed angular, for example, square, with the corners are rounded even with angular versions. This allows adaptation to corresponding shaped cups.
  • the distance preferably has a value between 5 mm and 20 mm.
  • typical domes made of frothed milk can be preferably taken without the overall dimensions of a cup with attached lid are too large.
  • the receptacle is formed as a bead in the wall element.
  • the wall element is preferably designed in two layers in the region of the bead. So that the bead can be reinforced.
  • the wall element can be folded over at a lower edge for this purpose.
  • the receptacle is formed by a bead in the cover plate element laterally to the cover plate.
  • the cover plate member take over the function to hold the lid on a mouth roll or at a distance from the mouth roll.
  • a two-layered frame is preferably formed between the bead and the cover plate, which is at least partially sealed to the wall element. This frame is used in particular for stabilization. In addition, so that the cover plate element can be firmly connected to the wall element.
  • the receptacle is formed by a number along the peripheral wall formed, inwardly facing indentations. This may in particular mean that the receptacle does not rest along the entire circumference, but only along some sections on the mouth roll of a cup. This allows, for example, the production of a special optics, which results from the recognizable by the indentations structured outer surface.
  • the wall element is turned inwards under the receptacle, in order to allow a latched portion of a snapping of the mouth roll of the beverage cup.
  • This can secure the lid against unintentional removal.
  • the mouth roll must first be moved to remove the lid against a certain resistance caused by an undercut, wherein the undercut is formed by means of the folded portion.
  • the formation of an undercut is easily possible in the lid according to the invention due to the production of paper or paper-like material. This is not possible with plastic lids, which are produced by deep-drawing or injection molding, or only with great effort. This results in considerable advantages of the lid according to the invention.
  • the cover plate element forms laterally of the cover plate a circumferential collar, which is bent upwards and is encompassed by a frame of the wall element.
  • This allows a simple and reliable attachment of the cover plate element to the wall element.
  • the wall element for this purpose can be turned over in particular at an upper edge, so that a shorter, folded portion is located inside.
  • the collar of the cover plate element is then received between this folded, inner section and the remaining part of the wall element.
  • a connection between the wall element and the cover plate element can be done for example by gluing or sealing.
  • the wall element and / or the cover plate element at the upper end of the lid are rolled out to form a mouth roll.
  • This will provide the user of the lid, i. typically offered to the consumer of a beverage contained in the cup, which is closed with the lid, a form similar to a conventional disposable beverage cup, which he perceives at the mouth.
  • the lid can then be provided with a hole through which the drink is drunk.
  • the peripheral wall assumes a constant angle to the central axis, at least outside the receptacle.
  • the peripheral wall at respective areas above and / or below the receptacle assumes a constant angle to the central axis, and the peripheral wall is formed in an upper end portion and / or a lower end portion parallel to the central axis.
  • the peripheral wall is aligned in an area above the receptacle parallel to the central axis.
  • the peripheral wall widens in an upper end region toward the upper end.
  • the cover plate is inclined relative to the receptacle and / or to the central axis.
  • an inclination relative to the receptacle is understood in particular to mean an inclination relative to a plane in which, in the case of a typical use of the lid as an attachment to a cup, the mouth roll of the cup extends.
  • a liquid for example a beverage
  • the liquid can also be collected in a defined manner.
  • the head of the consumer may have a lower tendency when drinking.
  • a lid according to the invention can be produced in an advantageous manner. It can be used on all variants and embodiments of the lid described above. Illustrated benefits apply accordingly.
  • a cup assembly 5 each with a cup 10 and a lid 20 according to the respective embodiment is shown in a perspective view.
  • the respective cup assembly 5 is shown in a sectional view, wherein in addition a respective central axis 22 is located.
  • the central axis 22 is in each case a central axis for both the cover 20 and for the cup 10.
  • a section is drawn, which in each case with the letter "c" designated figure is shown in more detail. This is not the case only in the sixth embodiment.
  • a first cover 20 and a second cover 20a are respectively shown, which are stacked.
  • the exception is the sixth exemplary embodiment, such a representation in FIG Fig. 6c is shown.
  • the central axis 22 is located.
  • the cup assemblies 5 according to the invention each have a cup 10, which has a circumferential mouth roll 12 at its upper edge.
  • the mouth roll 12 is formed by a jacket of the cup 10 being rolled outward. This gives the consumer a drink contained in the cup 10 without the lid 20, a pleasant feeling while drinking.
  • the cover 20 has in each case a receptacle 24, which is designed to rest on the mouth roll 12 of the cup 10. This ensures a stable hold of the lid 20 on the cup 10.
  • the lid 20 is with provided a first large hole 31 through which can be drunk or through which a drinking straw can be inserted. Another small hole 33 in the lid 20 serves for venting and, if appropriate, for returning liquid from the lid 20 into the cup 10.
  • the respective cover 20 in each case has a wall element 40. This forms a circumferential wall 41, i. a rotationally symmetrical outer shell of the lid 20th
  • the cover 20 in each case has a cover plate element 30, which is connected to the wall element 40 by means of gluing.
  • the cover plate element 30 forms a particularly flat cover plate 32.
  • the term "even” should be understood here in particular that the cover plate 32 appears smooth in conventional view. This does not exclude that, for example, it may be inclined relative to the central axis 22.
  • a hole 31 is formed for drinking.
  • the receptacle 24 is realized by a formed in the wall 41 bead 43. This is as shown outwardly arched and thus allows the recording of the mouth roll 12 of the cup 10.
  • the shown embodiment in which the wall 41 below the mouth roll 12 is slightly inclined inwards again, a certain locking action of the mouth roll 12 is achieved. This avoids unintentional removal of the lid 20 from the cup 10th
  • an angle of the side wall 41 to the central axis 22 is constant. This applies both to sections of the wall 41 above as well as below the bead 43.
  • the wall element 40 is turned over, so that an inner, folded-over portion 42 of the wall element 40 is present, which extends to slightly above the bead 43.
  • the wall element 40 is thus formed in two layers, in particular in the region of the bead 43. This increases the stability of the wall element 40 in the region of the bead 43.
  • the wall element 40 is also turned inwards, so that a further inner, turned-over portion 44 is formed.
  • the cover plate member 30 forms at the same time at its outer end an upwardly facing collar 34.
  • the collar 34 is received in the folded wall member 40 such that it is contacted by the other folded portion 44 of the wall member 40 inside.
  • Such a design of the wall element 40 is also referred to as a frame 45.
  • An angle of the circumferential wall 41 relative to the central axis 22 is constant in the lid 20 according to the first embodiment outside the bead 43.
  • Fig. 1d two stacked lids 20, 20a are shown.
  • the lower edge of the upper lid 20a is seated on the bead 43 of the lower lid 20.
  • the lid 20 according to the second embodiment which in the Fig. 2a to 2d is shown, differs from the lid 20 according to the first embodiment only in that the angle of the peripheral wall 41 deviates in the region of the frame 45. Specifically, the peripheral wall 41 is formed in the region of the frame 45 parallel to the central axis 22.
  • the lid 20 according to the third embodiment which in the Fig. 3a to 3d is different from the cover 20 according to the first embodiment in that the wall element 41 deviates from the other angle in a lower end region and is formed parallel to the central axis 22. This also applies to the lower folded portion 42. Furthermore, the bead 43 is more pronounced than the lid 20 according to the first embodiment.
  • the lid 20 according to the fourth embodiment which in the Fig. 4a to 4d is different from the cover 20 according to the third embodiment in that the angle of the circumferential wall 41 relative to the central axis 22 also deviates in the region of the frame 45 from the immediately underlying angle.
  • the wall element 40 is formed parallel to the central axis 22, as is also the case in the second embodiment.
  • the lid 20 according to the fifth embodiment which in the Fig. 5a to 5d is different from the cover 20 according to the second embodiment in that the cover plate 32 is inclined to the central axis 22. This makes it possible to ensure that liquid on the cover plate 32 is exposed to a slope and thus collects at a defined position. Thus, the liquid can be easily removed from the cover plate 32, for example, wiped off.
  • This is typically a liquid which, for example, when preparing and depositing the cup 10 with the lid 20 for drinking on the cover plate 32 passes and remains there.
  • Fig. 5d shows two stacked lids 20, 20a.
  • the cover plate 32 of the upper lid 20a sits with its lowest point on the upper edge of the frame 45 of the lower lid 20.
  • the lid 20 according to the sixth embodiment which in the Fig. 6a to 6c is different from the cover 20 according to the fourth embodiment in that the cover plate 32 is inclined relative to the central axis 22. This achieves the same advantages as already described with reference to the fifth embodiment.
  • the lower edge of the lid 20 is as in the third embodiment of the FIGS. 3a to 3d designed.
  • the receptacle 24 is formed differently than in the first to sixth embodiments.
  • the cover plate member 30 is bent down to form a bead 36 which rests on the mouth roll 12 of the lid 10.
  • the bead 36 is formed by means of a suitable bending of the cover plate member 30.
  • the cover plate element 30 forms a double-layered region 38, which is adhesively bonded to the wall element 40. This leads to a particularly high stability in this area 38.
  • a smaller bead 47 is formed in the wall member 40 below the mouth roll 12, which partially surrounds the mouth roll 12 of the cup 10 from below.
  • Fig. 7d shows two stacked lids 20, 20a.
  • the bead 36 of the upper lid 20 a sits on the upper edge of the frame 45 of the lower lid 20.
  • the lid 20 according to the eighth embodiment which in the Fig. 8a to 8d is different from the lid 20 according to the seventh embodiment in that the lower detent is formed not by a small bead 47, but by a bent over 180 ° portion 48 of the wall member 40. This also allows a defined engagement of the mouth roll 12, since the bent portion 48 ends below the mouth roll 12. Unintentional removal of the lid 20 of the cup 10 is thus avoided.
  • the receptacle 24 is again executed differently.
  • the receptacle 24 is designed by means of a number of along the peripheral wall 41 formed, inwardly facing indentations 46. These are each designed so that they provide below a bearing surface for the mouth roll 12 of the cup 10.
  • the embossments 46 may be referred to as noses, for example.
  • Fig. 9d shows two stacked lids 20, 20a.
  • the upper lid 20a is seated with the bearing surfaces of the indentations 46 on the upper edge of the frame 45 of the lower lid 20.
  • the receptacle 24 is again formed by a circumferential bead 43, which, however, is flattened compared to the beads 43 of the first to sixth embodiments. Below the mouth roll 12, this is in turn locked by a folded portion 48 of the wall member 40.
  • the cover plate member 30 is not held in a frame 45 of the wall member 40, but is rolled outward on the edge and thus forms another mouth roll 50. Attached is the cover plate member 30 on the wall member 40 at an upper portion of the wall member 40th on which the wall element 40 and the cover plate element 30 run parallel.
  • the outside formed further mouth roll 50 offers the consumer a feeling which is very similar to the feeling in the case where the consumer consumes the drink contained in the cup 10 without the lid 20. In this case, he would have the mouth roll 12 of the lid 10 directly to the mouth. The further mouth roll 50 of the lid 20 mimics this feeling.
  • Fig. 10d shows two stacked lids 20, 20a.
  • the upper lid 20a sits with its bead 43 on the further mouth roll 50 of the lower lid 20.
  • the receptacle 24 is formed by indentations 46, as is the case in the ninth embodiment.
  • another mouth roll 50 is formed, as is the case with the tenth embodiment.
  • the receptacle 24 is formed by a circumferential bead 43 as in the tenth embodiment.
  • no another mouth roll 50 is formed, but the cover plate member 30 and the wall member 40 are connected to each other by means of a frame 45, as is the case for example in the first embodiment.
  • the frame 45 is inclined inward in the twelfth embodiment.
  • a part of the receptacle 24 of the cover 20 seated on the mouth roll 12 has a width of approximately one half the width of the mouth roll 12.
  • Half the width of the mouth roll 12 is marked with X.
  • the distance between the cover plate 32 and the mouth roll 12 is indicated by Y.
  • Fig. 12d shows two stacked lids 20, 20a.
  • a radially inwardly projecting edge 52 of the upper lid 20a bears against the outer side 34 of the frame 45 of the lower lid 20. Since the outer side 34 is directed obliquely inward, the upper lid 20a assumes a defined position on the lower lid 20.
  • the lid 20 is not round as in the previous versions, but quadrangular design. This allows adaptation to corresponding square cup shapes.
  • cover plate 32 is disposed at a significant distance above the mouth roll 12 of the cup 10. This makes it possible to include components of beverages which protrude beyond the mouth roll 12, for example frothed milk with a cappuccino, in the space bounded by the peripheral wall 41 below the cover plate 32.
