Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for capping a container and an assembly comprising a container equipped with such a capping device.
  • the invention relates more particularly to a capping device that makes it possible to keep a cap attached to the neck of a container, thus avoiding losing the cap in nature.
  • the capping device comprises a ring that is intended to be retained on the neck of the container, a cap that is intended to cover the orifice of the container to seal it, two elastic sheets that join the cap with the lower ring and a locking device installed to lock the cap in a tilted open position.
  • capping device is not fully satisfactory.
  • this cap is intended to snap fit into the neck of the container and cannot be adapted to other types of neck.
  • the movement of the cap between the closed position and the tilted open position is a simple pivot movement, which limits the height of the cap and / or neck that can be used. This limits the applications of said capping device.
  • it is not suitable for containers intended to receive carbonated beverages because the pressure inside such containers would lead to unwanted openings of the cap.
  • the locking device is not adapted for all types of cap and does not ensure sufficient reliability to maintain the tilted open position in screw caps, for example.
  • One idea on which the invention is based is to propose a capping device that allows keeping a cap attached to the neck of the container that is easy to manufacture and use and that allows the cap to be kept in the tilted open position in a reliable and robust manner.
  • the invention provides a capping device, intended to be fixed to a neck of a container in order to seal an orifice of said neck, said neck comprising an engaging collar, the capping device comprising:
  • the capping device makes it possible to propose a cap that can remain attached to the neck with the help of the ring and the articulation device.
  • the articulation of the ring allows, for its part, to adapt the capping device to long necks, for example, for the use of a cap to be screwed on.
  • the male fixing element and the female fixing element allow providing a robust locking device that adapts to any type of cap, for example, that is to be screwed or snap fit.
  • the arrangement of the lug in the housing and its orientation relative to the heel allow the tilted open position to be robustly maintained.
  • the relative position of the female fixing element with respect to the articulation device is constant, which makes it possible to ensure a precise positioning of the male fixing element with respect to the female fixing element. during the pivoting of the cap towards its tilted open position.
  • a capping device of this type may comprise one or more of the following features.
  • the housing comprises a beveled lower part that forms said lower surface.
  • the lug and the heel extend parallel to the axis of rotation.
  • the lug and the heel thus form a snap-fit connection made in the same direction as the axis of rotation, thus, it is referred to as a horizontal snap-fit.
  • a horizontal snap-fit Unlike a vertical snap fit, for example, such a snap fit allows for a better grip in the tilted open position due to its orientation relative to the kinematics of the cap. Otherwise, because the snap-fit extends in this direction, the grip is further improved.
  • the male fixing element comprises a main portion connecting the lug to the outer peripheral skirt of the cap, the lug and the main portion being inclined relative to each other to form a hook.
  • the hook shape of the male fixing element allows better retention in the housing of the female fixing element when the cap is in the tilted open position.
  • the capping device is made by molding with the help of two half-shells that are joined at the level of a radial joint plane, the male fixing element of the cap and the female fixing element of the ring being made each one on both sides of said joint plan.
  • the design of the capping device allows an unmolding with a mold with two half-shells without leaving any residues.
  • the joint plane is oriented to pass through a central axis X of the capping device and through the center of the articulation device.
  • the male fixing element of the cap is formed in line and centered above the articulation device.
  • the female fixing element of the ring is formed in line and centered below the articulation device.
  • the articulation device comprises a deformable sheet connecting the outer peripheral skirt and the second section of the ring.
  • the deformable sheet has the function of a hinge by elastic deformation thereof during the movement of the cap from the released position towards the tilted open position.
  • the deformable sheet comprises a predetermined pivot area configured so that the axis of rotation of the capping device is located in this predetermined pivot area.
  • the predetermined pivot area is made with the aid of a zigzag portion of the deformable sheet.
  • the first section and the second section are separated from each other by two thin areas in which the ring locally has a radial thickness decrease to allow the second section to articulate with respect to the first section.
  • the ring is intended to be mounted movably in rotation on the neck around a central axis X of the capping device and the outer peripheral skirt of the cap has a helical thread intended to cooperate with a helical thread provided on the neck of the container to allow screwing or unscrewing of the cap on the neck around the central axis X.
  • the ring comprises a notch configured to locally deflect the ring from the engaging collar, the notch being diametrically opposite to the articulation device
  • the cap comprises a closing element that protrudes axially from the outer peripheral skirt and that it is diametrically opposite to the articulation device, the closing element being intended to cooperate with the engaging collar provided on the neck to position the closing element in the notch and to keep the cap in the closed position.
  • the lower ring is connected to the outer peripheral skirt by frangible bridges.
  • the second section extends over the entire height of the ring.
  • the second section extends over an angular range comprised between 120 and 200°, and preferably comprised between 160 and 190°.
  • the articulation device is connected to the second section in a central area of the second section.
  • the capping device is made by molding in a single piece.
  • the invention also provides an assembly comprising a container equipped with a neck comprising a engaging collar and an orifice, and equipped with a capping device mentioned above, the first section of the ring of the capping device being retained axially into the engaging collar of the neck.
  • the first section comprises one or more retaining elements that project radially towards the interior of the ring; they are arranged below the engaging collar and are configured to axially retain the ring on the neck of the container.
  • the housing is delimited downwards by a lower surface against which the lug is intended to be supported during the movement of the cap towards the tilted open position, which makes it possible to exert a downwardly directed force on the ring and which allows the second section of the ring to be brought back to the lowered position where it is aligned with the first section.
  • the X axis corresponds to a central axis of the capping device intended to be positioned orthogonally to the plane of the orifice to be sealed when the capping device is in the closing position and seals said orifice.
  • the X axis thus corresponds to the axis of rotation of the cap of the capping device when it is screwed onto the neck of the container.
  • the "radial” orientation is orthogonal to the X axis.
  • the terms "external” and “internal” are used to define the relative position of an element with respect to another, by reference to the X axis, an element close to the X axis is thus qualified as internal as opposed to an external element located radially on the periphery.
  • upper and lower are used to define the relative position of one element with respect to another by reference to a position in which the orifice in the neck is directed upwards and the cap is in a closed position on the neck of the container, an element intended to be positioned lower being designated as lower element and an element intended to be positioned higher being designated as upper element.
  • the capping device 1 is intended to be assembled on the neck 2 or throat of a container, as shown in Figures 1 to 4 .
  • the container is, for example, a bottle.
  • the capping device 1 comprises a so-called tamper-evident ring 3 that is intended to be retained on the neck 2 of the container, a cap 4 that is intended to cover the orifice 5 of the container to seal it and an articulation device 6 that joins the cap 4 with the lower ring 3. Furthermore, the capping device 1 also comprises a locking device composed of a male fixing element 7a formed in the cap 4 and a female fixing element 7b formed in the ring 3, the locking device 7a, 7b being arranged to lock the cap 4 in a tilted open position, shown in Figures 3 and 4 , wherein the cap 4 is disengaged from the orifice 5 of the container and does not hinder the pouring of the contents of the container.
  • the capping device 1 is made by molding with the help of two half-shells that are joined at the level of a joint plane, as well as a mold that is placed on top of the half-shells.
  • the half-shells make it possible to mold, in particular, the peripheral skirt 9 and the ring 3, while the mold allows the upper wall 8 of the capping device 1 to be molded.
  • the joint plane is oriented to pass through the X axis of the capping device 1 and through the center of the articulation device 6.
  • the ring 3 is held axially in the neck 2 of the container by means of an engaging collar 18, in particular, represented in Figures 1 to 3 .
  • the engaging collar 18 has a frusto-conical external surface that tapers upwards, that is, in direction of the orifice 5 of the container.
  • the engaging collar 18 delimits, downwards, that is, in a direction opposite to the orifice 5, a projection.
  • the cap 4 comprises an upper wall 8 intended to be arranged substantially orthogonal to the axis X, opposite the orifice 5 of the neck 2 when said cap 4 is in the closed position.
  • the cap 4 further comprises an outer peripheral skirt 9 intended to surround the neck 2 of the container when the cap 4 is in the closed position.
  • the outer peripheral skirt 9 extends, downward, perpendicular to the upper wall 8, from the outer periphery of said upper wall 8.
  • the outer peripheral skirt 9 has, on its internal face, a thread 10 formed by a series of helical ribs and intended to cooperate with a complementary thread 11, that is visible, specifically, in Figures 2 and 3 , formed by a series of helical ribs, and provided on the external surface of the neck 2.
  • the cap 4 is suitable to be screwed onto neck 2 in order to close the container and to be unscrewed from the neck 2 in order to open the container.
  • the cap 4 is thus movable between the closing position, represented in figure 1 , and a released position, represented in figure 2 . In said released position, the cap 4 is no longer inside the neck 2 of the container. In this way it is suitable to be tilted towards the open tilted position, shown in Figures 3 and 4 , wherein the cap 4 is released from the orifice 5 of the neck 2 so as not to hinder the pouring of the contents of the container.
  • the cap 4 is not screwed onto the neck 2, but is snap fit onto it.
  • Ring 3 comprises a notch configured to locally deflect the ring 3 from the engaging collar 18.
  • the notch is diametrically opposite to the articulation device 6.
  • the cap 4 comprises a closing element which projects axially from the outer peripheral skirt 9 and which is also diametrically opposite to the articulation device to be in line with the notch in the closed position.
  • the closing element comprises a projection directed towards the inside of the cap 4 at one end of the closing element and which is intended to cooperate with the engaging collar 18 provided on the neck 2 to position the closing element in the notch and to maintain the cap 4 in closed position.
  • the projection generates the elastic deformation of the closing element to return to its initial state after having passed the engaging collar 18 and thus maintain the cap 4 with respect to the neck 2 in the closed position in the form of a snap-fit connection.
  • the outer peripheral skirt 9 has, on its outer face, a series of grooves distributed around the X axis and extending parallel to said X axis.
  • the grooves thus provide a rough surface that facilitates the grip of the cap 4 by the user or by the assembly device of the bottling chain.
  • the cap 4 also comprises an internal skirt 12, represented in particular in Figure 4 , which extends perpendicularly downward from the upper wall 8 of the cap 4 and is sized to be inserted inside the orifice 5 of the neck 2.

  • the inner skirt 12 and the annular lip 13 are sized in such a way that, when the cap 4 is in the closed position, on the neck 2 of the container, the inner skirt 12 is in contact against the inner face of the neck 2, while the annular lip 13 is in contact against the outer face neck 2. In this way, the inner skirt 12 and the annular lip 13 make it possible to ensure the sealing of the closure.
  • the ring 3 is connected, before the first opening of the container, to the cap 4 by frangible bridges 14, visible in Figure 1 , intended to break during the first opening of the cap 4.

  • the ring 3 comprises two thin areas 17, that is, the radial thickness of which is less than the radial thickness of the ring 3 outside of said thin areas 17.
  • the two thin areas 17 delimit the first section 15 and the second section 16.
  • the thin areas 17 thus form pivots that allow articulation of the second section 16 with respect to the first section 15.
  • the cap 4 can thus move from the closed position illustrated in Figure 1 to the released position illustrated in Figure 2 by moving axially away from the first section 15, which generates the inclination of the second section 16 in an increasingly inclined position with respect to the first section 15 as the cap 4 is opened to reach an inclined position of the second section 16 with the cap 4 in the released position. Otherwise, when the cap 4 passes from the released position to the tilted open position illustrated in figure 3 , the second section 16 returns to its original position aligned with the first section 15.

  • the deformable sheet 21 that forms the articulation device 6 is formed differently from the embodiment in Figure 1 . Indeed, in this embodiment, the deformable sheet 21 has been reduced in height and increased in width to make sheet 21 stronger and more rigid than in the previous embodiment. Furthermore, the deformable sheet also includes a predetermined pivot area 22, which is made herein with the aid of lateral edges of the deformable sheet that have a flared portion 24. Indeed, the pivot area 22 is thus made at the level of the section of the deformable sheet 21 which is located at the beginning of the flared portion 24.
