Definitions
- the invention relates to a closure capsule for a substantially cylindrical vessel, with a lateral surface, a closed end and an open end and a tear strip with a gripping tab for opening the closure capsule.
- a closure element for a vessel which comprises a closure capsule with a lateral surface, a closed end and an open end, a tear strip with a gripping tab for opening the closure capsule and a closure label.
- This closure element serves as opening protection for original packaging of high quality products, such as medical devices, pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, spare parts of machinery, to prevent that after removal of the contents of the vessel is filled with a mostly inferior copy.
- a capsule that shrinks under the influence of heat can not be used because of its heat sensitivity.
- the container could be closed after refilling with a copy again with a capsule, so that no effective protection against counterfeiting is achieved. Therefore, WO 2013/167701 Al proposes applying a capsule to the vessel, wherein the closure capsule is not connected by heat to the vessel, but by means of a label whose first portion is disposed on the vessel and the second portion arranged on the closure capsule is, wherein the opening of the vessel both the capsule and the label are destroyed.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide closure capsules which are designed so that they are mechanically cylindrical on substantially vessels can be applied, wherein the closure capsules are not secured by heat to the vessel, but by means of a label whose first portion is disposed on the vessel and the second portion is disposed on the closure capsule, wherein when opening the vessel, both the closure capsule and the label be destroyed.
- the lateral surface is formed substantially cylindrical at least in the region of the open end, that the closure capsule is stackable and has means for stacking at least two closure capsules with a defined distance.
- the invention is based on the finding that it makes sense to also stack closure capsules for substantially cylindrical vessels for cost reasons during transport, i. to put these into each other, as they then take up less space. Even when mechanically applied, it is advantageous to stack the closure capsules, as the machine can then retrieve these easier and a previous positioning of the closure capsules omitted.
- the closure capsules according to the present invention are stackable, ie, they can be at least partially interleaved.
- the stackability can be achieved in various ways, for example, by a slight taper of the substantially cylindrical surface of the closure capsules in the region of the open end, wherein the conicity of 1: 50 to 1: 30, preferably from 1: 40. In the region of the open end, the caps are pushed into each other, which is made possible by such a taper.
- a first, substantially cylindrically shaped portion of the closure capsule with a smaller diameter than another, likewise substantially cylindrically shaped portion of the closure capsule, so that the portion with the smaller diameter in those with larger Diameter of the adjacent closure capsule can be inserted.
- means for stacking at least two closure capsules are provided with a defined distance, which ensure that the machine, the closure capsules are supplied to each other with a defined distance.
- the means for stacking are arranged as arranged in the region of the open end perpendicular to the axis of the closure cap, directed towards the interior of the closure cap bead.
- This bead is thus formed as a recess in the closure capsule, which limits the insertion of the adjacent closure capsule and thus ensures the respectively desired defined distance of the closure capsules.
- the bead can be arranged close to the open end of the closure capsule or be further away from it.
- the beads function to ensure a defined spacing of the stacked closure capsules, they also serve to compensate for vessel diameter tolerances and stiffen the capsule in the area of the open end. Therefore, it may be useful to provide the closure capsule with two or more beads.
- the means for stacking are formed as a shoulder on the closure capsule on which the adjacent closure capsule comes to rest. Also, a shoulder, so an increase or decrease in the diameter of the closure capsule, can allow the stacking of the closure capsules with a defined distance.
- a development of the invention is that the closure capsule has a rotation.
- closure capsules may in fact be necessary for the closure capsules not only to be stacked at a defined distance from each other, but also to be in a certain rotational position, for example because of the position of the tear tab or the position of a label relative to the label. By preventing rotation is ensured that the stacked closure capsules are in the desired rotational position.
- rotation is designed as a positive connection between two closure capsules.
- a portion of the closure capsule, which engages in the stacked state in a portion of the adjacent closure capsule not rotationally symmetrical, but be formed in a different shape, so that when stacking a defined rotational position of the closure capsules is ensured.
- closure capsule has in the region of the open end inwardly directed nubs.
- closure capsule it is possible for the closure capsule to have, in the region of the open end, inwardly directed beads arranged parallel to the axis of the closure capsule.
- Both the knobs and the beads arranged parallel to the axis of the closure capsule serve to compensate for tolerances of the vessel diameter and to stiffen the closure capsule in the region of the open end.
- closure capsule in the region of the closed end has a perforation for venting the inner region of the closure capsule.
- FIG. 1 is a side view of a first closure capsule according to the invention
- FIG. 2 shows a side view of two stacked closure capsules according to FIG. 1, FIG.
- FIG. 3 shows a side view of a second closure capsule according to the invention
- Fig. 4 is a side views of two stacked closure capsules according to
- the closure capsule 1 has a lateral surface, a closed end 2 and an open end 3 and a tear strip 4 with a gripping tab 5 for opening the closure capsule 1. At least part of the lateral surface is cylindrical in order to cover a substantially cylindrical vessel.
- the stackability of the closure capsules 1 can be achieved in various ways, for example by a slight conicity of the closure capsules from 1:50 to 1:30, preferably 1:40, at least in the region in which the closure capsules 1 are pushed one against the other.
- first, substantially cylindrical portion of the closure capsule 1 with a smaller diameter than the other, substantially cylindrical portion of the closure capsule, so that the portion of smaller diameter in those with a larger diameter adjacent closure capsule can be inserted.
- the closure capsule 1 according to FIG. 1 is stackable despite its cylindrical shape, which is achieved here in that the closure capsule 1 has a first cylindrical region A with a diameter A, to which a second cylindrical region with a diameter B adjoins. By this change in diameter, a shoulder 6 is formed.
- the first area A is applied to the lid of the vessel, the second area B encloses the vessel itself in a partial area thereof.
- the closure capsule 1 according to FIG. 3 has a first cylindrical region A, which has a first diameter. This first region of the closure capsule 1 is placed on the lid of a vessel. A second region B, which has a conical shape and opens into a third cylindrical region C, which has a larger diameter than the first region A, adjoins the first region A. This third region C encloses a part of the vessel itself. It has a slight conicity of 1:40, so that in this subregion C the closure capsules 1 can be pushed into one another.
- closure capsule 1 means for stacking at least two closure capsules are provided with a defined distance, which can be formed as arranged in the region of the open end 3 perpendicular to the axis of the closure cap 1, directed towards the interior of the closure cap 1 bead 7.
- the bead 7 may extend over the full circumference of the closure capsule 1 or extend over only part of the circumference of the closure capsule 1, such as this is the case in FIG. 3.
- a plurality of beads 7 arranged parallel to one another can be seen, in particular two parallel beads 7, as in FIG. 3.
- Fig. 4 shows two stacked closure capsules 1, wherein the second closure capsule 1 is inserted to its first bead 7 in the first closure capsule 1.
- the first bead 7 thus ensures a defined distance of the stacked closure capsules 1.
- closure capsule 1 has an anti-rotation, which may be formed for example as a positive connection between two closure capsules.
- the closure capsule 1 may further comprise 3 inwardly directed nubs 8 in the region of the open end.
- the closure capsule 1 in the region of the open end 3 parallel to the axis of the closure capsule arranged inwardly directed beads 9 have. Both variants are shown in FIG. 3.
- the closure capsule 1 in the region of the closed end have a perforation 10 for venting the inner region of the closure capsule 1.
