Description

DESCRIPTION

LID WITH GRILLE AND REMOVABLE CLOSURE

The invention, as its name indicates, consists of a lid with a grid suitable for covering a container such as volatile substances, which has a film sheet adhered perimeter and by points of contact to said grid with means that allow it to maintain sealing the container in the transport and storage processes.

The film sheet is adhered by conventional means to the grid, this adhesion can be either by heat-sealing, glues or any other means of adhesion.

The adherence is present at least in the perimeter area, although there may also be points of adherence in those places where there may be contact between the surface of the film sheet and the grid in such a way that it prevents the perimeter joint from being reinforced, avoiding that the contents of the container to which it closes, may come out during transport or storage.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

There are on the market a wide variety of lids with grids of different shapes within the volatile substance dispenser sector, such as insecticide content or air freshener type, where the volatile substance to be released is required to remain contained within the container until when you want to put into use.

Ambient-oriented volatile substances can be included in solid volumes in such a way that they have a high durability in the ambience, seeking that their content does not spill during use.

The implementation of the grid becomes a benchmark in this class of executions since it allows volatile substances with aromas or insecticides, among others, to easily pass into the atmosphere once the container is in use, avoiding that if it falls over the container, it does not its contents are spilled.

The grid can be any perforated element that communicates the inside and outside of a container.

The problem lies in preserving the volatile substances inside the container, seeking to maintain the initial qualities during packaging.

Applicant's own utility model ES201530195U shows a lid with a grid that has a removable partition that covers the grid and prevents the contents from tipping over in the transport and storage processes.

Said solution requires the use of additional plastic for the creation of the partition, which the applicant wants to reduce considerably.

The solution that arises with this invention consists of a lid with a grid that has a sheet that seals it on the perimeter either by means of adhesives or any other material that keeps the container sealed until it is put into use.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

To solve the problems previously exposed, the lid has means to be coupled to the neck of a container where this lid comprises:

- A perimeter partition that delimits an interior space, preferably this partition is in the shape of a circumference.

- A grid arranged in the interior space of the perimeter partition and that allows the communication of the interior and the exterior thanks to the perforations that it presents, although the perforations may be distributed over the entire surface of the grate or in part of it and may comprise also different geometric arrangements. - A film sheet placed on the grid covering the entire surface of the grid and adhered to it at least perimeter in a reserved space so that the contact is continuous and thus prevent the effluvia from leaving before putting it into use.

In addition to the perimeter adhesion, adhesion points can occur at other points of coincidence between the film sheet and the grid. The higher the number of adherence points, the more consistent the connection between the grid and the lid will be.

The material of the film sheet can be diverse as long as it allows the application of adhesive elements or heat sealing.

Taking into account that the joint between the grid and the film sheet is continuous around the perimeter and may also have other points of adherence, it is necessary to facilitate the removal of the film from the surface of the grid when you want to put the device In use.

For this, the film sheet has a tab as a handle that allows it to be pulled by removing the film sheet.

In a possible embodiment, the flange protrudes from the perimeter of the film sheet although it can also be contained within said perimeter.

In another possible embodiment, the flange, contained within the perimeter of the grid, remains floating thanks to a gap arranged in the lid under said flange, which enables a space to easily pull the flange.

In another possible embodiment, the film sheet can have a flange that protrudes from the perimeter of the grid which can be held and pulled at any point of said perimeter for the removal of the film sheet from the surface of the grid.

The adhesion of the film sheet to the grid can be by heat-sealing, through the use of glue, or any other element that allows such adhesion to the grid.

DESCRIPTION OF A MODE OF CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Therefore, an embodiment is proposed that is neither unique nor limiting but merely explanatory.

The invention refers to a lid (1) comprising a grid (2) and a method of closing said grid in such a way as to prevent the contents of a container from spilling.

The closure comprises a film sheet (3) that adheres to the grid (2) through its reserve area (4) by thermosealing or conventional adhesives, the grid being covered and sealed in such a way that communication between the inside and outside of the container closed by the lid.

The reserve area (4) arranged on the perimeter of the grid, does not have perforations and is suitable as a sealing surface, occurring at least in that reserve area. (4) the junction between the film sheet and the lid. The union can be by adhesive, heat sealing or any other technique that guarantees a lasting union.

In addition to the bonding in the reserve area, other bonding points can also be generated between the film sheet and the grid, causing the bond between one and the other to be strengthened.

In this way, the grid (2) is sealed by the film sheet presenting points of attachment at least in the perimeter reserve area (4) and, where appropriate, by other attachment points.

The union is produced by adhesives, glues or other compounds that facilitate the sealing, generating a solid hold between the grid and the film sheet where said sealing can be carried out during the manufacturing process of the lid or after it depending on the method used for the corresponding adhesion.

In light of the foregoing, a possible implementation of the invention comprises:

- A cover (1) that supports a grid (2), where the cover is suitable to anchor itself to a container and close it.

- A grid (2) with a plurality of holes arranged in the inner section of the cover (1) and which has a reserve zone (4) on the perimeter.

- A film sheet (3) that is attached to the grid by means of conventional adhesives.

The material of the film sheet allows it to have at least two faces; one of them made of suitable material for sealing, such as a plastic that, in addition, allows adequate adherence to the grid that facilitates, in due course, the removal of said sheet. The other face can be made of any other material that provides robustness to the film sheet and allows that in order to remove said sheet it comes out in one piece, preventing it from tearing and being more cumbersome to remove the film sheet from the surface of the rack.

The adherence will be strong enough so that in the transport and storage processes, either due to the effects of heat or humidity, it cannot lower the level of adherence and, in parallel, that it is easy to open, which would be reflected in not having to apply additional force to remove said sheet from the grid.

The film sheet has a flange (6) free of adhesive and that exceeds the perimeter of the film sheet and is not attached to the grid other than through the film sheet itself of which it is part and which serves as a grip to the removal of the film sheet allowing communication, through the grid, of the interior and exterior of the container.

The flange (3), in the transport and storage processes, can rest on the same sheet of film, for example folded, being located within the perimeter of the grid.
