Definitions

  • the current invention relates to a packaging article comprising a container and a lid arranged to be mounted on the container to seal the contents of the container, said container defining a volume with an opening and a first outwardly protruding circumferential flange arranged around the periphery of the opening, and said lid comprising a central portion and a rim portion arranged at the periphery of the central portion with an upper edge of the rim portion being raised above said central portion, said rim portion comprising a first downwardly facing U-shaped circumferential groove arranged to accommodate the first outwardly protruding circumferential flange of the container when the lid is mounted on the container,
  • the outwardly protruding circumferential flange of the container will be arranged such that the flange extends perpendicularly to the plane of the opening of the container.
  • the opening of the container will be arranged in a single plane and be facing upwardly, so the outwardly protruding circumferential flange will extend vertically.
  • embodiments could be envisioned where the opening is not facing upwards, but could be arranged at an angle. In this case, the flange will not be arranged vertically.
  • the downwardly facing U shaped groove will in most cases extend in a direction which is perpendicular to the plane of the central portion of the lid. If the central portion is not flat, then the U shaped groove will in most cases extend perpendicular to the plane which forms the average to the central portion. In case it is difficult to define the average plane of the central portion, then one could say that the groove extends perpendicular to the plane defined by the outermost portion of the central portion of the lid. The word downwardly was chosen to reflect the orientation of the lid as shown in the figures.
  • the lid would also be arranged at an angle when mounted on the container and the groove would not be arranged “downwardly” when mounted on the container, but when the lid is lying flat, the groove would be downwardly facing.
  • the first flange and the first groove are arranged such that a squeeze fit is provided.
  • a squeeze fit is provided between the lid and the container due to this squeeze fit.
  • the seal established by this squeeze fit is not always effective enough.
  • a soft gasket can therefore be arranged in the first U shaped groove.
  • the top edge of the first flange comes into contact with the gasket which then establishes an effective seal between the first flange of the container and the first groove of the lid.
  • a packaging article according to the preamble of claim 1 is disclosed by EP 2 392 521 A1 .
  • a first aspect of the current invention is therefore to provide a packaging article with a seal between the container and the lid which is better than the seals of the prior art.
  • a second aspect of the current invention is to provide a packaging article where the connection between the container and the lid is better than in the prior art.
  • the packaging article 1 shown in figures 1-3 and 5-7 comprises a container 10 and a lid 20.
  • the figures only show partial cross section views of the packaging articles showing details of the interaction between the lid and the container since the person skilled in the art will understand the remaining portions of the packaging articles.
  • the container and the lid of the current embodiment are made from a Poly Propylene plastic material, but other materials are also possible as will be known to the person skilled in the art.
  • a Poly Propylene plastic material but other materials are also possible as will be known to the person skilled in the art.
  • One non limiting example of another material which is suitable is Poly Ethylene.
  • the lid 20 comprises a central portion 21 and a rim portion 22.
  • the central portion in the current embodiment is flat, however, it could also have other forms, for example domed.
  • the rim portion is provided to give the lid stiffness and to allow stacking of one container on the other while preventing stacked containers from sliding with respect to each other as is known to the person skilled in the art.
  • a skirt 23 is provided on the outer side of the rim.
  • an inwardly facing ridge 25 is provided on the inner side of the skirt 24, an inwardly facing ridge 25 is provided. The inwardly facing ridge 25 is arranged to engage with an outwardly facing flange (described later) on the container to lock the lid on the container.
  • the rim of the lid also comprises a first downwardly facing U-shaped circumferential groove 26 running around the circumference of the lid.
  • the groove 26 comprises an inwardly facing surface 26a, an outwardly facing surface 26b and a downwardly facing surface 26c.
  • the rim portion also comprises a second downwardly facing circumferential groove 27 also running around the periphery of the rim.
  • the second groove 27 is arranged on the inside of the first groove. In other words, the diameter of the second groove is smaller than the first groove. Furthermore, the first groove and the second groove are co-centric.
  • the second groove 27 comprises an inwardly facing surface 27a, an outwardly facing surface 27b and a downwardly facing surface 27c.
  • the second groove 27 is arranged lower than the first groove 26 (according to the orientation of the lid as shown in the figures).
  • the downwardly facing surface 26c of the first groove is located above the downwardly facing surface 27c of the second groove.
  • the downwardly facing surface 26c of the first groove is located about 5mm higher than the downwardly facing surface 27c of the second groove 27.
  • the downwardly facing surface 27c of the second groove 27 is located close to the plane defined by the upper surface of the flat central portion 21 of the lid.
  • the downwardly facing surface 27c of the second groove is located 1 mm above the plane defined by the upper surface of the flat central portion 21 of the lid.
  • the second groove should be located in the transition area between the flat central portion of the lid and the rim portion of the lid.
  • the lower surface of the flat central portion 21 of the lid smoothly transitions over into the outwardly facing surface 27b of the second groove 27.
  • This is beneficial in the case where a barrier label is to be applied to the inside surface of the lid. It could be said that the lower and inner edge of the second groove is located at or above the lower and outer edge of the flat central portion of the lid. In another situation, one could say that there is no protruding edge between the lower flat central portion of the lid and the outwardly facing surface of the second groove. This is advantageous in different embodiments where a barrier foil is desired.
  • the rim portion of the current embodiment also comprises a number of ribs 28 spaced around the inner periphery of the rim portion.
  • the ribs provide extra stiffness and strength to the lid.
  • the ribs end at a vertically upstanding flange 29.
  • a gasket 40 is arranged in the second groove 27 .
  • the gasket is made of a material which is elastically deformable and which provides good sealing properties. Two non-limiting examples of such a material are polyurethane and a hot melt adhesive. Depending on the desired properties and the manufacturing facilities available, the gasket could either be a pre-formed gasket which is inserted into the second groove, or it could be directly injected in a fluid form into the groove after which it solidifies.
  • the lid of the current embodiment is also provided with a barrier film 30 arranged on the inside surface of the lid.
  • the barrier film is shown with a thick dotted line in order to visually identify it.
  • the barrier film is however a solid material which is provided to prevent oxygen from passing through the lid.
  • Different forms of barrier film are available as will be known to the person skilled in the art.
  • the barrier film is provided by an in mould label made from EVOH. The label is placed in the mould before the plastic material of the lid is injected into the mould.
  • the barrier film is placed on the inside surface of the lid (as will be described in more detail later) however in other embodiments, the barrier film could also be placed on the outer surface of the lid and be combined with branding/product information.
  • the container 10 as shown in detail in figure 3 , comprises a side wall 11 and a bottom (not shown).
  • the side wall and bottom define a volume with an open top.
  • the upper edge of the side wall defines an opening 12 for the container.
  • the container Around the upper edge of the side wall and around the opening, the container also has a rim portion 13.
  • the rim portion comprises a first outwardly protruding circumferential flange 14.
  • the flange is outwardly protruding and it can also be said that the flange is vertically upstanding.
  • the flange 14 is in the current embodiment provided with an inwardly facing surface 14a, and outwardly facing surface 14b and an upwardly facing surface 14c.
  • the inwardly and outwardly facing surfaces are arranged parallel.
  • the first flange 14 is arranged to engage with the first groove 26 of the lid in a form fitting relationship, at least at the upper end of the first flange.
  • the first flange runs around the entire periphery of the rim portion of the container.
  • a second vertically upstanding circumferential flange 15 is arranged on the inside of the first flange. It can also be said that the first flange and the second flange are co-centric and that the diameter of the first flange is greater than the second flange.
  • the second flange 15 comprises an inwardly facing surface 15a, an outwardly facing surface 15c and an upwardly facing surface 15c.
  • the upwardly facing surface 15c is curved such that a smooth transition is provided between the outwardly and inwardly facing surfaces of the second flange.
  • the inwardly facing surface 15c of the second flange is an extension of the inwardly facing side wall of the container.
  • the transition between the inwardly facing surface 15c of the second flange and the inwardly facing surface of the sidewall is smooth. This geometry has benefits when applying a barrier film to the inside of the container as will be discussed later on.
  • the upper edge of the first flange is higher than the upper edge of the second flange.
  • the first flange is used to provide support for the rim of the lid such that stability is provided to a stack of containers.
  • the second flange on the other hand is used to provide an effective seal in cooperation with the first flange.
  • the container of the current embodiment also comprises a barrier film 17.
  • the barrier film is shown with a thick dashed line to visually identify it, however in reality, the barrier film is a solid film which prevents oxygen from getting into the container.
  • the barrier film can also be arranged to prevent chemicals from the contents of the container from chemically reacting with the container itself.
  • the barrier film is in the form of an in mould label made from EVOH. Other forms of barrier film are known to the person skilled in the art.
  • the barrier film is arranged on the inside surface of the side wall, as this is the most optimal placement for the current embodiment as will be described later on, however, in other embodiments the barrier film could also be placed on the outer side of the container and/or combined with branding/product information. Furthermore, it could be imagined that the lid and/or the container comprise an IML on both the inner and/or outer sides.
  • the outer portion of the rim portion of the container is also provided with a skirt 18.
  • the skirt also has a circumferential outwardly facing flange 19. This flange is arranged to engage with the inwardly facing ridge 25 of the lid to lock the lid on the container.
  • the ridge is snapped over the flange 19.
  • it is required to pull the skirt of the lid outwardly to disengage the ridge 25 of the lid from the flange 19 of the container.
  • the second flange 15 of the container is arranged in the second groove 27 of the lid. Due to the gasket arranged in the second groove, the second flange 15 is pressed into and "embedded" in the gasket. This provides a large surface area between the gasket and the second flange and therefore results in a very good seal.
  • the second flange is arranged such that it extends past the plane which contains the lower and outer edge of the inner surface of the lid. In this way, the lower plane of the lid and the plane of the second flange intersect. This could also be advantageous in other embodiments.
  • the second flange and second groove/gasket provide the effect that the "corner" of the lid is held in place and prevented from displacing in towards the centre of the container when pressure is applied from the inside of the container.
  • Pressure can be applied in many circumstances, for example when gas inside the container is warmed, for example when the container is placed in sunlight, or when the container is moved and the contents of the container move inside the container.
  • the seal provided between the container and the lid is much better than that provided by prior art containers. It can also be said that the lid and the container are arranged such that the gasket itself provides the lowest point of connection between the lid and the container.
  • figure 8-9 show prior art containers and what happens when pressure is applied from the inside of the container.
  • the outwardly facing surface of the first groove of the lid is "peeled" away from the inwardly facing surface of the first flange. This completely removes the sealing effect provided between these two surfaces.
  • the lid is peeled away from the flange, the contents of the container can come into contact with the surfaces of the lid and the container and contaminate them. There will be a large risk that the contents of the container will leave residues on the surface whereby it will no longer be possible to return to the previous effective seal.
  • the second groove is arranged to be wider than the second flange.
  • the gasket material can be arranged to completely surround the second flange when the lid is mounted on the container.
  • the barrier film 17 of the container and the barrier film 30 of the lid meet at the gasket.
  • the gasket therefore forms a direct connection between the barrier film of the lid and the barrier film of the container.
  • the material of the gasket is also a barrier material preventing oxygen from passing through the gasket, a very effective barrier seal is provided.
  • the barrier films of the lid and the container do not need to cover the entire rim portion of the lid and the container respectively. As such less barrier film needs to be provided and a simpler barrier film can be provided. In particular, it is possible to form the barrier film on the lid such that it does not extend past the second groove.
  • the barrier film on the container where the barrier film on the container does not extend past the second flange. Again, the barrier film on the container does not even need to extend past the upwardly facing surface of the second flange.
  • figure 6 is provided where dimensions in millimetres are marked. These dimensions should not be used to limit the scope of protection and are purely provided as a single example embodiment of a packaging article according to the invention.
  • Figure 4 shows a prior art container
  • figure 5 shows a container according to the current invention. As can be seen, the only area that needs to be changed is the area marked by the circle A.
  • Figure 7 is furthermore provided to show how two lids are stacked on top of each other, and how the downwardly protruding flange 31 arranged between the first and second grooves is arranged to contact the upper surface of the rim portion of the lid, so that the gasket 40 of the upper lid is not in contact with any parts of the lower lid when stacked. This is important since the lids can be stored for longer periods of time in a stacked configuration and if the gasket materials were under compression during storage, there is a risk that the gasket could get damaged over time.
  • the downwardly protruding flange 31 which extends from the lid between the first and second grooves extends further downwards than the lower surface of the gasket 40 arranged in the second groove or it could be said that the downwardly protruding flange 31 of an upper lid is arranged such that a portion of the downwardly protruding flange 31 of the upper lid is arranged between the lower surface of the gasket of the upper lid and the upper surface of the lower lid when stacked.
