Definitions
- the present invention relates to a closure device for a bottle in which a first substance is contained which must be mixed with a second substance contained in the bottle which must be kept separate from one another until the moment in which they are used, when they must be mixed together.
- the mixing operation normally takes place by opening the bottom of the capsule or of the housing of the closure device in which the first substance is located, which falls into the bottle becoming mixed with the second substance.
- patent EP2922767 in the name of this same applicant describes a closure device for a bottle comprising an outer concave cap comprising an edge portion adapted to seal the mouth of the bottle and a deformable concave upper portion.
- Such device comprises, in the inside, a chamber for containing said first substance closed at the bottom by a heat-sealed film.
- the device further comprises an element for breaking such film of the chamber comprising a stem which, at its upper end, is attached to the inside of the mentioned deformable portion of the cap and is able to move downwards after pressure has been applied on said deformable portion of the cap.
- Such breakage element has, at its lower end, teeth that can break said film.
- Patent EP3110389B1 (Montefarmaco) describes a bottle comprising a container of a fluid and a dosing cap for a soluble substance in said container, said soluble substance being stored in a frangible capsule housed in a relevant seat inside said dosing cap at the mouth portion of said container.
- the upper portion of the cap comprises side walls for the lateral containment of said capsule and an upper roof portion for the upper containment of said capsule which is movable under the manual action of a user between a raised rest position, in which it is in contact without compression against said capsule, and a lowered work position in which it compresses said capsule in a collapsed configuration, breaking it and making it release its contents into the container.
- the side walls are configured so that during the compression of said upper roof portion they do not penetrate into said dosing cap passing from a substantially stretched configuration when said upper roof portion is in the raised position, to a configuration that are substantially laterally folded onto themselves towards the outside when said upper roof portion is in the lowered position.
- Patent EP2697135 (Lameplast) describes a bottle having a container for containing a liquid substance and a closing cap for such container. Between the cap and the stopper of the container a capsule is provided containing the second substance, which is powdered, to be mixed with the first liquid substance contained in the container and a coupling bushing of the capsule to the mouth of the container.
- the cap is internally concave and when it is coupled to the mouth of the container it houses within it also the mouth and the capsule.
- the latter is of the so-called "blisterable” type, i.e. with a crushable dome and a flat bottom that is breakable due to the pressure on the dome.
- the cap is provided with a presser cylinder which when pushed by the user penetrates into the cap and crushes the dome of the capsule making the bottom thereof break.
- the cap or closure device requires a relevant pressure device (piston, stem) for perforating the capsule and the capsule itself is a separate stand-along element that is inserted into an appropriately shaped housing or structured inside the cap. This implies construction and design complications for producing it.
- the present invention provides a closure device for a bottle that is simple and effective at the same time.
- An aspect of the present invention relates to a closure device for a bottle having the characteristics of the appended claim 1.
- closure device 2 is illustrated, which device is associated with a bottle 3 for example with a cylindrical shape.
- the present invention can be equivalently applicable to bottles with different shapes.
- the closure device comprises an internally hollow cylindrical portion 21 and a concave upper portion 22, preferably cap shaped, so as to form a cavity inside it to contain a first substance to be mixed with a second substance present in the bottle.
- the cylindrical portion internally comprises a threading 23 screwed onto a corresponding threading 31 provided on the mouth of the bottle 3.
- Such first and second substances can be for example powder, liquid, granulate or other substances to be mixed with liquid.
- a closure element 4 inferiorly closes the cavity keeping the first substance protected against external agents.
- Such closure element is a film made up of polylaminate, generally polyethylene and aluminium, and is coupled to the concave portion by inserting it within the device and constraining it by heat-sealing.
- such element 4 is a disc whose perimeter edge is heat-sealed to an annular edge 24 that is formed as the diameter of the concave portion 22 is slightly less than the diameter of the cylindrical portion 21. The difference of the two diameters forms such annular edge 24 both inside and outside the device.
- annular gasket 5 placed between the device and the mouth of the bottle to guarantee the seal with the liquid present in the bottle.
- Such lower cylindrical portion of the device possibly comprises an annular closure seal 25 with the bottle, of the type of those present on the caps of drinks contained in plastic bottles.
- the concave portion is comprised of a flexible material which, when pressed, crushes the contents of the cavity against the lower closure element, breaking the same and letting the first substance drop inside the bottle.
- a small punch 26 is provided above the concave portion, said small punch facing toward the inside of the cavity, and penetrating the same cavity, which helps to fracture the lower closure element.
- Such punch is preferably provided with a cross-shaped structure formed by two walls 27 and 28 that cross over each other.
- the lower portion 22 comprises a plurality of ribs and/or grooves, substantially arranged vertically, adapted to facilitate the handling of the device during the container opening and closing operations.
- the device according to the present invention operates in the following way.
- the assembly step of the device onto the bottle illustrated in figures 2a-2b provides for the filling of the internal cavity of the concave portion with the first substance maintaining the device in the overturned position. Subsequently the disk is heat-sealed inside the cavity using the annular edge 24 for the sealing.
- the first operation to perform is a pressure on the top of the device ( figure 3b ), in order to fracture the closure element letting the first substance drop into the bottle. Then the bottle ( figure 3c ) is shaken to mix the two substances and form a uniform mixture and finally the closure device ( figure 3d ) is unscrewed for using such mixture.
