Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a closure cap arrangement for arrangement on a dispensing opening of a vessel, wherein the closure cap arrangement has a multi-part structure, comprising a plug-in cap and a collar designed as a sleeve for arrangement on the dispensing opening, wherein the plug-in cap has an inner cap accommodated in an outer cap, which over a connecting element is connected to the enveloping cap.
  • a closure cap arrangement of the type mentioned is approximately from EP 3 928 657 A2 known, wherein the closure cap arrangement for carrying out a connection of the plug-in cap with the collar arranged on the vessel opening has an inner cap, which has a spring cam formed in the sleeve part of the inner cap to form a connecting element, which has a special design of the sleeve part with slots to achieve a desired spring effect of the Spring cam requires such that the spring cam locks with a locking device designed as a circumferential bead or circumferential bead on the collar.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of proposing a closure cap arrangement with a plug-in cap in which such restrictions with regard to the use of metering pump devices in combination with the plug-in cap can be reduced.
  • closure cap arrangement according to the invention has the features of claim 1.
  • the connecting element serves independently of the inner cap to form a detachable connection with the collar.
  • one and the same connecting element serves both to connect the outer cap and the inner cap of the plug-in cap and to form the connection of the plug-in cap to the collar.
  • the design of the connecting element which is independent of the inner cap, also enables a choice of material for the connecting element that is independent of the material of the inner cap, so that a material choice is particularly advantageous for the function of the connecting element is possible without thereby impairing the choice of material that appears sensible for forming the inner cap.
  • This also makes it possible to select a material for the inner cap with a view to recycling the plug-in cap as effectively as possible, which corresponds to the material of the outer cap, in order to select the material proportion of the plug-in cap or the closure cap arrangement intended for recycling as high as possible.
  • a choice of material is conceivable in which a plastic material is selected for the connecting element and aluminum is selected for the outer cap, the inner cap and the collar.
  • connection between the connecting element and the collar is designed as a mechanical connection.
  • connection is designed as a non-positive and/or positive connection.
  • the connecting element is formed from a material that differs from the material of the outer cap and/or the material of the inner cap, a combination of materials is possible in the production of the closure cap arrangement, in which the selection of materials optimizes the respective use of the material to form the connecting element , the inner cap, the outer cap or the collar can be done.
  • the connecting element is made of a plastic material and at least the outer cap and the inner cap part are made of metal, preferably aluminum, the metal content or the aluminum content being at least 90%, preferably 92%, particularly preferably 95%, in order to If necessary, the closure cap arrangement or the plug-in cap can even be recycled enable, without prior mechanical separation of the connecting element from the combination with the enveloping cap and the plug-in cap, for example by melting the plug-in cap, in which the particularly small amount of a plastic component is thermally eliminated.
  • connection made possible by the connecting element is designed as a snap-in connection.
  • the connecting element is designed in a ring shape with a radially inner latching device which cooperates with a radially outer latching device of the collar, this is not only with regard to recycling, but in particular also with regard to the use of the closure cap arrangement by the consumer a particularly advantageous embodiment of the closure cap arrangement is provided when handling a vessel provided with such a closure cap arrangement, i.e. a perfume bottle, for example.
  • the connecting element connects a lower peripheral edge of the outer cap with a lower peripheral edge of the inner cap, so that the mass fraction of the connecting element can be kept correspondingly small.
  • connection between the connecting element and a lower edge of the collar takes place in such a way that the connecting element rests in connection configuration with the collar on a vessel edge, it is ensured that the support of the connecting element on the collar ensures that there is no play in the locking configuration and thus in the Perception by the consumer there is a high-quality feel of the cap arrangement.
  • the connecting element has an annular body with a radially outwardly directed support edge, which rests on a radially inwardly directed support collar of the outer cap, and with an axial support web on which a support edge of the inner cap is supported, such that the connecting element at one Loosening the connection between the plug cap and the collar is only subjected to pressure.
  • connections existing between the connecting element and the enveloping cap and the inner cap are also subjected to pressure and are therefore not subjected to separation of these connections, so that these connections are produced as purely frictional connections during assembly of the plug-in cap can be.
  • the enveloping body is designed in several parts, such that the radially inwardly directed support collar is formed on an inner sleeve of the enveloping cap connected to an outer sleeve of the enveloping cap, the outer sleeve can be provided with a cap base forming the top of the plug-in cap, without the above-mentioned assembly to combine the outer cap with the inner cap would be impaired by means of the connecting element.
  • Fig. 1 shows a longitudinal sectional view of a vessel 10, here designed as a bottle, which has a dispensing opening 11, here designed as a vessel neck, on which a closure cap arrangement 12 is arranged.
  • the closure cap arrangement 12 has a multi-part structure with a plug-in cap 13 and a collar 14 designed as a sleeve, which is arranged on the dispensing opening 11 and surrounds a metering pump device 15 arranged in the dispensing opening 11.
  • the metering pump device 15 is crimped to an opening edge 16 of the dispensing opening 11 by means of a fastening sleeve 16, which is received between the dispensing opening 11 and the collar 14.
  • the plug-in cap 13 has an inner cap 19 arranged in an outer casing cap 18, with a cap insert 20 being accommodated in the present case in a space formed between the casing cap 18 and the inner cap 19.
  • the enveloping cap 18 is designed in two parts and has an outer sleeve 22 provided with a cap base 21 and an inner sleeve 23 which engages in the outer sleeve 22 and has a support collar 24.
  • the cap insert 20 which preferably simultaneously forms a cap weight and is made of cast aluminum, forms a spacer device which defines the axial relative arrangement of the outer cap 18 and the inner cap 19.
  • a ring-shaped cap stop 25 is formed at the upper end of the cap insert 20, against which the cap base 21 of the outer sleeve 22 abuts, and at the circumference of the cap insert 20 there is a stop collar 26, against which the inner sleeve 23 rests with a sleeve edge 31.
  • the outer sleeve 22 is connected to the inner sleeve 23 as a frictional connection in an engagement area 27 formed between the outer sleeve 22 and the inner sleeve 23.
  • a connecting element 28 is provided, which, unlike the enveloping cap 18 made of aluminum in accordance with the inner cap 19 in the present case, is made of a plastic material.
  • the connecting element 28 has an annular body 29 with a radially outwardly directed support edge 30, which rests on the radially inwardly directed support collar 24 of the inner sleeve 23.
  • the body 29 has an axial support web 32 which is offset radially inwards relative to the support edge 30 and on which a radially outwardly directed lower support edge 33 of the inner cap 19 is supported.
  • the connecting element 28 is therefore exclusively subjected to pressure, so that no separating forces become effective between the supporting collar 24 of the enveloping cap 18 and the supporting edge 30 of the connecting element 28 as well as the supporting web 32 of the connecting element 28 and the supporting edge 33 of the inner cap 19 and the connecting element 28 is secured in its relative position between the outer cap 18 and the inner cap 19 via connections 34 and 35 that only act by friction.
  • the connecting element 28 has an edge web 36 which extends axially from the supporting edge 30 and which is arranged concentrically to a likewise axially extending clamping edge 37 of the enveloping cap 18, with axially extending ribs 40 on the edge web 36 to increase the clamping effect care for.
  • the clamping web 38 is provided with ribs 41.
  • the connecting element 28 serves not only to connect the outer cap 18 to the inner cap 19, but also to connect the plug-in cap 13 to the collar 14 arranged on the dispensing opening 11.
  • the connecting element 28 points to the ring-shaped Body 29 has a radially inner locking device 43, which in the present case is formed from three locking projections 44 distributed equidistantly over the inner circumference of the body 29, which in the present case are formed on the clamping web 38 of the connecting element 28.
  • a radially inner locking device 43 which in the present case is formed from three locking projections 44 distributed equidistantly over the inner circumference of the body 29, which in the present case are formed on the clamping web 38 of the connecting element 28.
  • the connecting element 28 connects a lower peripheral edge of the enveloping cap 18, formed here by the supporting collar 24, with a lower peripheral edge of the inner cap 19, formed here in particular by the supporting edge 33, the connection being made between the connecting element 28 and a lower part of the collar 14, in such a way that the connecting element 28 rests on the vessel edge 47 in a connection configuration with the collar 14
  • Fig. 1 becomes clear, due to the connecting element 28, which is designed independently of the inner cap 19 of the plug-in cap 13 and which enables a detachable connection between the plug-in cap 13 and the collar 14 regardless of the design or dimensioning of the inner cap 19, the inner diameter D of the inner cap 19 - approximately for accommodating larger metering pump devices - significantly larger than the outer diameter d of the collar 14 can be selected, without this would affect the connection between the plug cap 13 and the collar 14.
