La invencion se aplica a la industria del embotellamiento y mas concretamente al sector de cierre para botellas, principalmente de plastico.The invention applies to the bottling industry and more specifically to the closure sector for bottles, mainly plastic.

Antecedentes de la invencionBackground of the invention

En la actualidad se conoce una amplia variedad de tapones de cierre de todo tipo, forma y 15 dimensiones para recipientes y particularmente para botellas. Dichos tapones de cierre son empleados principalmente en el sector del envasado y/o embotellado, para un cierre y sellados optimos de los recipientes.At present, a wide variety of closure caps of all types, shapes and dimensions for containers and particularly for bottles is known. Said closure caps are mainly used in the sector of packaging and / or bottling, for optimal closure and sealing of the containers.

Se conocen tapones roscados que incorporan diversos mecanismos internos que tienen como objetivo principal proporcionar una elevada hermeticidad y estanqueidad en su 20 posicion de cierre sobre el cuello de botella del recipiente o envase en cuestion, garantizando la calidad del producto liquido envasado hasta el punto final de venta o consumo, sin posibles escapes o perdidas.Threaded caps are known that incorporate various internal mechanisms whose main objective is to provide a high tightness and tightness in their closed position on the bottleneck of the container or container in question, guaranteeing the quality of the liquid product packed to the end point of sale or consumption, without possible leaks or losses.

Estos tapones removibles, en general, cuentan con una alta probabilidad de que se caigan o pierdan durante la manipulation o uso de la botella o en su posterior reciclaje si es el caso.These removable caps, in general, have a high probability that they will fall or be lost during the manipulation or use of the bottle or in its subsequent recycling if necessary.

Description de la invencionDescription of the invention

20 La presente invencion soluciona el problema tecnico anteriormente citado proporcionando un tapon para envases, principalmente botellas y mas particularmente botellas de plastico con cuello roscado, donde un tapon (100) queda sujeto mediante un elemento flexible (101), articulado, a modo de bisagra o pivote de tal forma que el tapon (100) se pueda desenroscar de botella, pero a la vez, gracias de dicha bisagra y el resto de elementos del tapon, 25 permanece unido a ella pero siendo dicha botella o envase perfectamente funcional para el usuario. Adicionalmente, para facilitar que el accionado de dicha bisagra (101) no suponga que el tapon se mueva libremente obturando de nuevo la abertura o boquilla del envase o botella, se cuenta con un elemento de retention (104) a modo de muelle que permite que el tapon (100) se quede fijado en posicion de abierto para poder verter o beber el liquido del 30 envase o botella sin que dicho tapon (100) se cierre.The present invention solves the aforementioned technical problem by providing a cap for containers, mainly bottles and more particularly plastic bottles with threaded neck, where a cap (100) is held by a flexible element (101), articulated, as a hinge or pivot so that the cap (100) can be unscrewed from the bottle, but at the same time, thanks to said hinge and the rest of the elements of the cap, 25 remains attached to it but said bottle or container is perfectly functional for the user . Additionally, to facilitate that the actuation of said hinge (101) does not imply that the cap moves freely by sealing the opening or mouthpiece of the container or bottle, there is a retention element (104) as a spring that allows the cap (100) is fixed in the open position to be able to pour or drink the liquid from the container or bottle without said cap (100) closing.

Otra caracteristica que presenta esta solution de tapon (100) es que se puede desenroscar y roscar tantas veces como se quiera, sin que el tapon (100) se desprenda de la botella, porAnother feature presented by this stopper solution (100) is that it can be unscrewed and screwed as many times as desired, without the stopper (100) being detached from the bottle, by

lo que el reciclado, cuando aplica, se realiza de forma conjunta, envase y tapon (100), minimizando considerablemente el impacto medioambiental.what recycling, when applicable, is done jointly, container and cap (100), minimizing considerably the environmental impact.

El tapon (100) reivindicado, segun me muestra en las figuras, presenta un cuerpo (102) con elementos internos de roscado (106) para poderse roscar y desenroscar a un envase, 5 preferiblemente botella y particularmente de plastico. Dicho tapon (100) cuenta con un elemento en forma de anillo (103) que permanece fijo a la botella tanto cuando el tapon (100) esta roscado, o cerrado, o cuando esta desenroscado, o abierto. Dicha fijacion se consigue gracias a la corona inferior (107) con la que cuenta dicho anillo (103). Dicha fijacion no es estatica, sino que cuando el tapon (100) se desenrosca, todo el conjunto de 10 cuerpo (102) y anillo (103) asciende, pero finalmente, cuando el cuerpo (102) termina de salir de la rosca y de la botella el anillo (103) permanece el cuello de dicha botella por el tope que permite dicha corona (107) con el cuello.The cap (100) claimed, as shown in the figures, has a body (102) with internal threading elements (106) to be able to screw and unscrew a container, preferably a bottle and particularly plastic. Said cap (100) has a ring-shaped element (103) that remains fixed to the bottle both when the cap (100) is threaded, or closed, or when it is unscrewed, or open. This fixation is achieved thanks to the lower crown (107) with which said ring (103) has. Said fixation is not static, but when the plug (100) is unscrewed, the whole set of body (102) and ring (103) ascends, but finally, when the body (102) finishes exiting the thread and the bottle the ring (103) remains the neck of said bottle by the stop that allows said crown (107) with the neck.

Para un sellado correcto con la botella o envase y por tanto para que no se salga su contendido cuando la botella esta cerrada, es decir, cuando el tapon (100) esta roscado, el 15 cuerpo del tapon (102) cuenta en su interior con un aro sellador (105).For a correct seal with the bottle or container and therefore so that its contents do not come out when the bottle is closed, that is, when the cap (100) is threaded, the body of the cap (102) has inside it with a sealing ring (105).

El cuerpo del tapon (102) y el anillo (103) permanecen unidos mediante un elemento de union (101), que dada su estructura, mas flexible que el resto de elementos, permite que el cuerpo del tapon (102), una vez desenroscado, pueda girar sobre dicho elemento a modo de bisagra, de forma articulada, y por tanto dejar libre la boca de la botella o envase para 20 acceder de forma funcional a su contenido.The body of the plug (102) and the ring (103) remain joined by a connecting element (101), which given its structure, more flexible than the rest of the elements, allows the body of the plug (102), once unscrewed , you can turn on said element as a hinge, articulated, and therefore leave the mouth of the bottle or container free to access its contents in a functional way.

El cuerpo del tapon (102) cuenta con elemento a modo de muelle (104), de tal forma que permite que inmovilizacion o bloqueo del cuerpo del tapon (102) cuando este esta desenroscado y en una posicion lo mas abierta posible, de tal forma que durante la manipulation de la botella o envase, el cuerpo del tapon no se desplaza y por tanto no 25 estorba al usuario.The body of the plug (102) has a spring-like element (104), so that it allows immobilization or blocking of the body of the plug (102) when it is unscrewed and in a position as open as possible, in such a way that during the manipulation of the bottle or container, the body of the cap does not move and therefore does not hinder the user.

Aunque se entendera que dicho tapon (100) puede realizarse en diferentes materiales, principalmente plasticos, de forma preferida, y para una mejor industrialization del proceso de fabrication, dicho tapon es realizado en polipropileno o PP.Although it is understood that said plug (100) can be made in different materials, mainly plastic, preferably, and for a better industrialization of the manufacturing process, said plug is made of polypropylene or PP.
