- Closure devices of the aforementioned type are known in the art.
- closure devices serve to close a container, for example a beverage bottle, and at the same time to provide a chamber for the separate storage of liquid or powdered ingredients, for example tea essences, so that they do not immediately fill with the contents of the container, ie For example, water, come into contact and / or mixed, but only at the moment in which the closure device is removed from the container. This is usually the moment when a user wants to consume the beverage in the container.
- the closure devices known in the prior art regularly consist of a cover element, on which the chamber is arranged, and an inner housing. The closure device is usually screwed onto the container as a whole, ie completely pre-assembled.
- the inner housing has a form-fitting correspondence with the thread of the container. responding thread.
- the cover element and the inner housing are connected to each other via form-fitting corresponding threads.
- the cover element-and thus also the chamber arranged on the cover element- is moved relative to the inner housing.
- the cover element is moved from a closed position to a discharge position, in which discharge position a medium stored in the chamber can escape into the container.
- the chamber and inner housing have mutually corresponding closure means and opening means for closing or opening the discharge opening.
- closure and opening means can be formed on the inner housing, for example in the form of a single plug element arranged on the inner housing, wherein a first end region forms the closure means and a second end region forms the opening means.
- the plug element prevents or permits leakage of the medium into the container, depending on its position within the outlet opening of the chamber.
- the closure and opening means may be formed on the chamber as a discharge opening, for example as a receptacle for the plug element, which cooperate in a first position with the closure and opening means of the inner housing so that no medium can escape from the chamber, and a second Position so that medium can escape.
- the corresponding closing and opening means may also be separate, at least not directly cooperating elements in the closed state, such as, for example, the outlet opening of the
- Chamber occluding membrane and arranged on the inner housing mandrel.
- the document WO 2007/129116 A1 (US 2009/0321286 A1) relates, for example, to a closure device according to the prior art for attachment to a container.
- the closure device comprises a lid member defining a chamber and an inner housing having a plug member sealingly engageable with a discharge opening in a lower wall of the chamber.

- the closure devices of this type known in the prior art have proven to be suitable for sealing plastic containers, they are not readily suitable for the closure of glass containers.
- the known closure devices for optimum fit and tightness require precise dimensioning of the container in the region of the container opening.
- these requirements often can not be met in the manufacture of glass bottles. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a closure device which is particularly suitable for closing a glass container.
- the invention proposes a closure device according to the preamble of claim 1, in which the first thread is arranged on the chamber as viewed from the thread rotation axis pointing radially outward.
- the relative movement of the chamber to the inner housing is made possible by corresponding threads arranged on the chamber and the inner housing.
- the formation of the first thread on the chamber makes it possible to arrange the chamber including the thread within the container. In this case, the chamber and inner housing remain in the discharge position in engagement with each other, so that the inner housing can be removed with the arranged on the lid member chamber from the container.
- the fit of the closure device on the container no longer depends on a precise dimensioning of the container in the region of the container opening. Rather, the tightness of the container closed with the closure device can also be ensured if the container, in particular a glass bottle, has dimensional deviations.

- serving as a lid element aluminum element is rolled onto the outer wall of the container in the region of the container opening, whereby the impression of the thread is made in the lid member.
- Cover element and container are thus form-fitting corresponding elements, which ensure the tightness of the sealed container with the closure device. It is also advantageous that in the production of the cover element, a technology can be used, which is already used regularly in the closing of glass bottles with aluminum lids.
- the invention further proposes that the chamber is welded to the cover element.
- the closure device In the production of the closure device thus a conventional and very inexpensive connection method can be used.
- the cover element In addition, in addition to this, it is also possible for the cover element to simultaneously close an opening formed in the chamber.
- the lid member acts both as a closure element for the opening of the chamber and as a closure element for the container itself.
- the Ver- Welding can be done in different ways, for example by means of ultrasound, induction or resistance heating.
- the chamber has an opening with a collar-shaped folded edge area, to which edge region the cover element is welded to close the opening.
- the chamber thus has a kind of connecting flange, which is aligned substantially parallel to an adjacent surface of the cover element.
- the collar-shaped folded edge region may in particular be an area of the wall of the chamber which is bent by 90 °. This results in a particularly simple manner, an area which is aligned parallel to the surface of the cover element.
- the chamber along this - preferably annular - area, d. H. along the opening, be connected to the lid member. In the welding process, this area is advantageously used to weld the lid member to the chamber.
- the cover element is coated in the region of the weld with a lacquer. The paint is to be matched in its composition to the respective material of the chamber.

- a welding process it can be provided that either all three parts - chamber, film element, cover element - are welded together essentially at the same welding points, in particular also at the same time, or alternatively that the welding points deviate locally. The latter is especially useful when the melting points of the lid and chamber materials are so different that there is a risk that one of the materials will be heated above its melting point. In this case, it is advisable to separate the welding spots locally.
- the cover element and the film element can be welded together in the area of the opening of the chamber, while the chamber and the film element are welded together in the region of the edge area of the chamber which is folded in the shape of a collar.
- the material of the cover element is regular PP (polypropylene). PP has a melting point of about 210 ° C.
- the material of the chamber PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), has a melting point of about 320 ° C.
- the temperature required for the welding of the chamber and the film element is higher than the temperature required for the welding of the cover element and the film element.

- the basic construction of the closure device 1 is similar to that shown in FIG. However, since the lid member 4 is not made of aluminum, but rather of a plastic, rolling up of the lid member 4 to the container 2 is not possible.
- the chamber 6 is closed in the region of its opening 13 with a film element 15.
- This film element 15 is advantageously an aluminum
- it may also be made of a plastic material such as EVOH (ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer), PET (polyethylene terephthalate) or the like.
- EVOH ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- the film element 15 is made of aluminum, this is preferably coated on the facing in the direction of the chamber 6 side with a paint for the material of the chamber 6, in particular PBT.
- a paint is advantageously applied, which is suitable for connection to the lid member 4.
- the cover element 4 is made of PP, for example, a paint for PP is recommended.
- the film element 15 is welded to the chamber 6 or the cover element 4.
- the welding can take place either in a common method step, or in successive steps, whereby the film element 15 is first welded to the chamber 6, for example, and only in a subsequent step to the cover element 4.
- closure device 1 already has a second thread 12 formed on the cover element 4 for connection to the container 2.
- closure devices 1 according to Figures 2 and 3 are in one
- FIG. 4 shows, for example, the closure device 1 according to FIG. 2 in a discharge position.
- the dumping position is shown here with reference to FIG. 2, it can also be embodied in a closure device 1 according to FIG.
- the closure device 1 according to FIG. 4 thus serves only as an exemplary embodiment for the discharge position and is in no way restrictive.
- the corresponding second threads 12, 12 'formed on the lid member 4 and the container 2 are rotated with each other.
- the chamber 6 within the inner housing 5 simultaneously rotates. This rotation is made possible by the first threads 10, 10 'formed on the chamber 6 and the inner housing 5. Because the inner housing 5 is pressed firmly into the container 2 by means of the press seal 11, the inner housing 5 remains non-rotatable with the container during the unscrewing of the cover element 4 from the container 2 or the rotation of the chamber 6 within the inner housing 5 2 connected.
- FIG. 5 shows a following position: As the chamber 6 advances, the closure means 7 can reach its upper end region into a position to the discharge opening 8, in which the discharge opening 8 is closed again, so that dripping of medium from the chamber 6 is prevented becomes.
- the upper end region of the closure means 7 is regularly radially widened relative to the adjacent regions of the closure means 7. This position is optional.
- the second threads 12 of the lid member 4 and the container 2 separate from each other, while the first threads 10 of the chamber 6 and the inner housing 5 are in an end position. Chamber 6 and inner housing 5 can not turn each other in this end position.
- FIG. 6 shows the closure device 1 which is completely removed from the container 2.
- the closure element 7 secures the discharge opening 8 of the chamber 6 against dripping of the medium out of the chamber 6.
- the chamber 6 is initially formed in two parts. It is subdivided into an upper dome part 19 and a lower opening part 20. Above an upper end face 21 of the container 2, the opening part 20 merges with a conical widening into a connection shoulder 22.
- This terminal paragraph 22 is connected to the dome portion 19, which is shown in the illustrated cross-section represents the position U-shaped. Overall, it is a drip-like, preferably rotationally symmetrical, namely rotationally symmetrical to the thread rotation axis 18 formed part.
- the pot bottom is in use, as shown above and the pot edge points down.
- the opening part 20, however, is formed substantially tubular. Preferably with a larger and a smaller opening. More preferably, as also shown in the exemplary embodiment, with a larger, the dome part 19th facing opening and a smaller, the bottom of the discharge opening 8 forming opening which receives the closure means 7 in the closed state.
- the conically widening region is supported by one or more struts on either directly on a chamber flange 23 which also overlaps the end face 21 and / or on a flange section 24 of the chamber running essentially perpendicular to the thread rotation axis 18, which also overlaps ultimately to the end face 21, but here by means of the flange portion 24 extends.
- connection section 22 adjoins the extension section 25 radially on the outside, approximately perpendicular thereto.
