Definitions
- the present invention discloses a multi-flow cap where the pouring area is a circular section with an outwardly projected rim.
- the cap is suitable for use by blind people.
- the cap is suitable for pouring oils and slurries.
- the document considered as the closest to the present invention describes a multi-flow cap comprising of a horizontal partition provided with a diametrical slit connecting two holes with different surface sizes.
- the cap described in PCT/ ES2013000254 shows two U-shaped paths of grooves with different radii.
- the device disclosed by PCT/ES2013000254 allows that two liquid flow rates to be obtained. However, when used, it is necessary to tilt the container by the grooved paths. If the container is not inclined by the grooved paths, the liquid will drip and stain the container external surface.
- sauces or vinaigrettes consisting of slurries having a liquid phase (oils, vinegars, wines ...) and a solid phase (species, aromatic herbs ...) that is soaked in the liquid phase.
- the problem solved by the present invention is to provide a suitable cap for use by the blind people.
- the solution found by the inventors is a cap where the pouring area is a circle with an outwardly projected rim. The cap allows the liquid contained in the container to be poured without a dropping occurs, without staining the exterior of the container, regardless of the orientation of the bottle during the pouring.
- another problem solved by the invention is to improve the flow of fluid when poured through the hole with lesser surface.
- the solution found by the inventors is that the lesser hole has a surface between 4-12 mm 2 . If the surface of the hole is less than 4 mm 2 the pouring flow will be intermittent while if the surface of the hole with a smaller surface is greater than 12 mm 2 it will not be possible to control the amount of discharged liquid.
- the cap When the lesser hole has an area between 4-12 mm 2 , the cap is suitable for pouring slurries and/or vinaigrettes. If one does not desires the species to drop, the liquid is poured through the hole of smaller area as the surface of the hole is smaller than the size of the species (cayenne, peppercorns). If one desires the species to drop, then the liquid is poured through the larger hole so that the species are allowed to drop.
- Another problem solved by the present invention is to indicate where the holes with larger and lesser surface are located.
- the solution found by the inventors consists of including differently sized tactile identification means.
- the cap (1) described herein consists of a cylindrical body, which at its bottom side has a horizontal partition (2).
- the horizontal partition (2) presents a diametrical slit (3) that connects two holes (4a, 4b) with different surface holes sizes. As shown in Figure 3 the holes (4a, 4 b) are located at the ends of the horizontal partition (2). Thus, the accumulation of poured product on the horizontal partition (2) is avoided.
- the upper end of the cap has a circular section (5) and an outwardly projected rim (6) that prevents a dripping of the liquid.
- the cap has at its lesser end means for fixing the cap to the container, for example by threading or pressure.
- the cap comprises tactile identification means of different sizes aligned with the holes. These means, in a preferred mode, are located in a peripheral skirt (8) in order to facilitate the location thereof by the blind people. In the event that the holes (4a and 4b) were not located at the ends of the horizontal partition (2), some liquid would accumulate on the partition (2) when using the cap.
- the tactile identification means may be grooves, roughened surfaces, splines, dots with different height or varying numbers of raised dots. Likewise, the tactile identification means may be written in Braille.
- the fixation of the cap to a container is performed by a thread terminating in a peripheral skirt (8) which acts as a stop.
- the peripheral skirt (8) comprises slits (7a) and splines (7b) as the means for tactile identification.
- the slits (7) are aligned with the larger surface hole (4) and the splines (7b) are aligned with the lesser surface hole (4b) as shown in figure 3 , where the slits (7a) are larger than splines (7 b) in size.
- the lesser surface hole (4b) is a circle with a 1.2 mm radius leading to a 4.5 mm 2 surface.
- the orifice allows for a constant flow of oil to be obtained, with a density of 0.9 g/ml and a surface tension of 0.033 N/m.
- the cap described with a 1.25 mm radius is used to pour slurry of oil and cayenne seeds, garlic cloves or peppercorns.
- slurry When the slurry is poured through the hole with the lesser surface only oil fell through, whereas when the slurry was poured through the hole with the larger surface oil and species fell through. In anyone of both situations, there was no accumulation of oil or species on the horizontal partition.
