Description
Lata, y un cuerpo y panel de la misma.Can, and a body and panel thereof.
El presente invento se refiere a una lata, y a un cuerpo y a un panel de la misma.The present invention relates to a can, and to a body and a panel of it.
Esta lata de acuerdo con el invento puede ser del tipo que tiene un así llamado cierre abrefácil. Un cierre abrefácil es un cierre metálico para una lata en el cual se puede conformar una abertura utilizando uno o más dedos y sin necesidad de una herramienta de apertura independiente. Para ello la lata está provista de una lengüeta para conformar una abertura en el panel de la lata. La lengüeta funciona como una palanca. Una lata de este tipo es conocida del documento US 3930592.This can according to the invention can be the kind that has a so-called easy-close closure. A closure easy opener is a metal closure for a can in which you can form an opening using one or more fingers and without the need to An independent opening tool. For this the can is provided with a tongue to form an opening in the panel of the can. The tongue works like a lever. A can of this type is known from US 3930592.
La lengüeta comprende una parte posterior de la lengüeta que debe ser agarrada por el usuario. Haciendo palanca o inclinando la lengüeta se actúa sobre la parte delantera de la lengüeta. La actuación por apalancamiento o inclinación produce la perforación de una abertura inicial en el panel. La abertura está definida por una línea de desgarro. Normalmente la línea de desgarro es circunferencial. Con la lengüeta en una posición vertical se conforma una abertura de perforación máxima. Tirar de la lengüeta hacia fuera produce el desgarro del panel. Finalmente, haciendo girar el panel éste se separa de la lata y se conforma la abertura de la lata.The tongue comprises a rear part of the tab that must be grabbed by the user. Prying or tilting the tongue acts on the front of the tongue. The action by leverage or inclination produces the perforation of an initial opening in the panel. The opening is defined by a tear line. Normally tear line It is circumferential. With the tongue in an upright position you It forms a maximum perforation opening. Pull the tongue out produces panel tear. Finally doing turn the panel it separates from the can and forms the opening From the can.
A la lata de acuerdo con el invento también se le puede hacer una abertura más pequeña mediante la acción de apalancamiento de la lengüeta, conformando de ese modo una pequeña abertura justo suficiente para vaciar el contenido de la lata.The can according to the invention also you can make a smaller opening by the action of tongue leverage, thereby forming a small opening just enough to empty the contents of the can.
Los usuarios de los tipos de lata anteriormente descritos encuentran algunas veces un problema al agarrar la parte posterior de la lengüeta. Normalmente, esto requiere que se inserte una uña o la punta de un dedo entre el panel y la parte posterior de la lengüeta para iniciar la acción de agarre.Users of can types previously described sometimes find a problem when grabbing the part rear of the tongue. Normally, this requires that it be inserted a nail or the tip of a finger between the panel and the back of the tongue to start the gripping action.
El invento tiene por objeto mejorar la acción de agarre inicial por parte del usuario. Esta mejora se produce bajo la condición de que otras funciones de la lata y de la lengüeta, tales como la fabricación, el llenado, la manipulación y la apertura de la lata mediante la lengüeta, no se vean afectadas.The invention aims to improve the action of initial grip by the user. This improvement occurs under the condition that other functions of the can and the tongue, such such as manufacturing, filling, handling and opening the can by the tongue, are not affected.
El presente invento está basado en la
comprensión de que las latas pueden tener, después de su llenado y
su cierre, una presión interna que es menor que la presión
atmosférica del entorno. Existe una diferencia de presión negativa
sobre el panel. Esta diferencia de presión negativa puede ser el
resultado del llenado en caliente y/o de la cocción del contenido de
la lata antes de cerrarla. Después del cierre y del enfriamiento la
fase gaseosa por encima del contenido reducirá su volumen, generando
de ese modo una diferencia de presión negativa sobre el panel y los
alrededores. Esta diferencia de presión negativa se utiliza para
hacer que el panel adquiera una forma hundida o cóncava. Estas
formas producen un aumento del espacio por debajo de la parte
posterior de la lengüeta. El mayor espacio mejora la acción de
agarre. Obviamente, este cambio en el panel se produce después de la
fabricación de la lata y del panel, después del llenado y del
cierre. Substancialmente no existe interferencia con la manipulación
tradicional de latas de este
tipo.The present invention is based on the understanding that the cans can have, after filling and closing, an internal pressure that is less than the ambient atmospheric pressure. There is a negative pressure difference on the panel. This negative pressure difference may be the result of hot filling and / or cooking of the contents of the can before closing it. After closing and cooling, the gas phase above the content will reduce its volume, thereby generating a negative pressure difference on the panel and the surroundings. This negative pressure difference is used to make the panel acquire a sunken or concave shape. These shapes produce an increase in the space below the back of the tongue. The greater space improves the grip action. Obviously, this change in the panel occurs after the manufacture of the can and the panel, after filling and closing. Substantially there is no interference with the traditional handling of cans of this
kind.
Por consiguiente, el presente invento proporciona un panel de acuerdo con la reivindicación 12, un cuerpo de acuerdo con la reivindicación 11 y una lata de acuerdo con la reivindicación 1.Therefore, the present invention provides a panel according to claim 12, a body according to claim 11 and a can according to the claim 1.
El panel deformable se puede conformar dotando al panel de una estructura particular y/o dotando al panel de un espesor diferente en el área deformable del panel. En esencia es necesario que el área deformable del panel tenga una mayor flexibilidad que otras partes del panel de manera que por la diferencia de presión negativa se proporcione la forma cóncava debajo de la lengüeta posterior.The deformable panel can be shaped by providing to the panel of a particular structure and / or giving the panel a different thickness in the deformable area of the panel. In essence it is it is necessary that the deformable area of the panel has a greater flexibility than other parts of the panel so that by the negative pressure difference the concave shape is provided under the back tongue.
Se observa que tarros, latas y botellas para zumo de frutas y mermeladas pueden estar provistos de una tapa roscada que tiene un área deformable del panel similar. Sin embargo, estas tapas roscadas no están dotadas de una lengüeta.It is noted that jars, cans and bottles for Fruit juice and jams may be provided with a lid threaded having a deformable area of the similar panel. But nevertheless, These screw caps are not provided with a tongue.
De acuerdo con una primera realización el área deformable del panel cambia entre una forma cóncava y una forma plana dependiendo de la diferencia de presión negativa sobre el panel. De esta forma, cuando se neutraliza la diferencia de presión negativa el panel deformable cambia de una forma cóncava a una forma substancialmente plana.According to a first embodiment the area deformable panel switches between a concave shape and a shape flat depending on the difference in negative pressure on the panel. In this way, when the pressure difference is neutralized negative the deformable panel changes from a concave shape to a shape substantially flat.
De acuerdo con otra realización el área
deformable del panel cambia entre una forma cóncava y una forma
convexa dependiendo de una presión negativa sobre el panel. El
proporcionar una forma convexa a la parte deformable del panel no
interfiere con la acción de apertura utilizando la lengüeta porque
la citada lengüeta se encuentra entonces en una posición más
inclinada alejada del área deformable del
panel.According to another embodiment, the deformable area of the panel changes between a concave shape and a convex shape depending on a negative pressure on the panel. Providing a convex shape to the deformable part of the panel does not interfere with the opening action using the tongue because said tongue is then in a more inclined position away from the deformable area of the
panel.
De acuerdo con una realización preferente el área deformable del panel es parte de una estructura escalonada. Por consiguiente, existe en la estructura escalonada un área mejor controlada en el cual podría tener lugar la deformación de la parte deformable del panel. A este respecto es preferible desde una perspectiva del consumidor que el área deformable del panel sea una estructura escalonada central.According to a preferred embodiment the deformable area of the panel is part of a stepped structure. By consequently, there is a better area in the stepped structure controlled in which deformation of the part could take place deformable panel. In this regard it is preferable from a consumer perspective that the deformable area of the panel is a central step structure.
De acuerdo con otra realización el panel está
provisto de una forma oblicua o gradualmente descendente (cuando
existe la diferencia de presión negativa). Sin embargo, cuando se
neutraliza la diferencia de presión el área deformable del panel
cambia de la forma cóncava oblicua a una forma plana o
convexa.According to another embodiment, the panel is provided with an oblique or gradually descending shape (when there is a negative pressure difference). However, when the pressure difference is neutralized the deformable area of the panel changes from the oblique concave shape to a flat or
convex
Con el fin de definir con precisión o limitar la
posición horizontal substancial de la lengüeta antes de la apertura
de la lata, es preferible que el movimiento de la lengüeta esté
limitado por una estructura de apoyo del panel. De acuerdo con una
realización la estructura del panel tiene la forma de un rebaje
sobre el cual se puede apoyar la lengüeta o mediante el cual se
limita el movimiento descendente de la parte de la lengüeta. Aunque
es preferible que el área deformable del panel esté situado en la
parte central del panel, también son adecuadas otras
posiciones
descentradas.In order to precisely define or limit the substantial horizontal position of the tongue before opening the can, it is preferable that the movement of the tongue is limited by a support structure of the panel. According to one embodiment, the structure of the panel is in the form of a recess on which the tongue can be supported or by which the downward movement of the tongue part is limited. Although it is preferable that the deformable area of the panel is located in the central part of the panel, other positions are also suitable
off center
El panel puede estar conectado al cuerpo de la lata por cualquier medio conocido. El panel puede ser unitario con el cuerpo o puede estar conectado por cualquier medio, tal como soldadura, estañado y similares. Es preferible que el panel esté estañado al cuerpo de la lata.The panel can be connected to the body of the can by any known means. The panel can be unitary with the body or can be connected by any means, such as welding, tinning and the like. It is preferable that the panel is tinned to the body of the can.
Las características mencionadas y otras características de la lata, del cuerpo y del panel de acuerdo con el invento se ilustrarán con mayor detalle por medio de los siguientes ejemplos, los cuales se proporcionan con fines ilustrativos y no pretenden limitar de ningún modo el presente invento, al tiempo que hacen referencia a los siguientes dibujos.The mentioned characteristics and others characteristics of the can, body and panel according to the invention will be illustrated in greater detail by means of the following examples, which are provided for illustrative purposes and not they intend to limit the present invention in any way, while They refer to the following drawings.
En los dibujos:In the drawings:
La figura 1 es una vista en perspectiva de una lata de acuerdo con el invento;Figure 1 is a perspective view of a can according to the invention;
Las figuras 2A y 2B son una sección transversal que sigue la línea II-II dada en la figura 1 y que muestra el cambio del área deformable del panel de acuerdo con el invento;Figures 2A and 2B are a cross section. which follows the line II-II given in figure 1 and that shows the change of the deformable area of the panel according to the invention;
Las figuras 3A y 3B muestran una alternativa de la lata de acuerdo con el invento; yFigures 3A and 3B show an alternative of the can according to the invention; Y
Las figuras 4A/4B y 5A/5B muestran otras alternativas.Figures 4A / 4B and 5A / 5B show other alternatives.
La figura 1 muestra una lata 1 de acuerdo con el invento. La lata comprende un cuerpo 2, un panel 3 superior y un panel 4 inferior. El panel 3 superior y el panel 4 inferior están estañados al cuerpo 2 por medio de una conexión 5 de cordón.Figure 1 shows a can 1 according to the invention. The can comprises a body 2, a top panel 3 and a bottom panel 4. Top panel 3 and bottom panel 4 are tinned to body 2 by means of a cord connection 5.
El panel 3 superior está dotado de una lengüeta 6 tradicional. La lengüeta 6 comprende una parte 7 delantera de la lengüeta y una parte 8 posterior de la lengüeta. La parte 8 posterior de la lengüeta está provista de una abertura 9 dentro de la cual el usuario puede insertar un dedo.The upper panel 3 is provided with a tongue 6 traditional. The tongue 6 comprises a front part 7 of the tongue and a rear part 8 of the tongue. Part 8 rear of the tongue is provided with an opening 9 within which the user can insert a finger.
La lengüeta 6 está conectada al panel 3 superior por medio de un remache 10. Otros métodos para la conexión de la lengüeta 6 incluyen la soldadura con material de aporte metálico o plástico. El remache 10 puede ser un remache independiente o puede haber sido conformado de material que proceda del panel superior y habérsele dado forma de remache.Tab 6 is connected to upper panel 3 by means of a rivet 10. Other methods for connecting the tab 6 include welding with metallic input material or plastic. The rivet 10 can be an independent rivet or can have been formed of material that comes from the top panel and having been shaped like a rivet.
El panel está dotado de una línea 11 de desgarro, la cual tiene una forma circular. La línea de desgarro define la abertura en la lata 1.The panel is equipped with a line 11 of tear, which has a circular shape. Tear line defines the opening in can 1.
La lata se abre insertando un dedo o una uña por debajo de la parte 8 posterior de la lengüeta en un así llamado espacio 12 de agarre. El apalancamiento o inclinación de la lengüeta 6 produce una perforación en la parte 7 frontal de la lengüeta en la línea 11 de desgarro mediante un movimiento ilustrado en la figura 2B.The can is opened by inserting a finger or a nail through under the back 8 of the tongue in a so-called 12 grip space. The leverage or inclination of the tongue 6 produces a perforation in the front part 7 of the tongue in the tear line 11 by a movement illustrated in the figure 2B.
La figura 2A muestra más en detalle y en sección transversal el panel 3 superior de acuerdo con el invento. El panel 3 superior está dotado de una estructura 13 escalonada que tiene tres anillos 14-16 escalonados concéntricos en una posición más baja con respecto al cordón 5. La estructura escalonada comprende un área central, el cual es un área 17 deformable del panel de acuerdo con el invento. Como se muestra en la figura 2A el área 17 deformable del panel tiene una estructura cóncava debido a que existe una diferencia de presión negativa sobre el panel desde el interior al exterior. Es decir, la presión atmosférica en el exterior es mayor que la presión interna en el interior 18 de la lata 1 de acuerdo con el invento.Figure 2A shows more in detail and in section transversal upper panel 3 according to the invention. The panel Upper 3 is provided with a stepped structure 13 which has three concentric staggered 14-16 rings in one lowest position with respect to the cord 5. The stepped structure it comprises a central area, which is a deformable area 17 of the panel according to the invention. As shown in Figure 2A the deformable area 17 of the panel has a concave structure due to that there is a negative pressure difference on the panel since The inside to the outside. That is, the atmospheric pressure in the outside is greater than the internal pressure inside 18 of the can 1 according to the invention.
Se observa que el movimiento descendente de la lengüeta 6 en su parte posterior está limitado por la presencia de una estructura de apoyo que tiene la forma de un rebaje 19.It is observed that the downward movement of the tab 6 on its back is limited by the presence of a support structure in the form of a recess 19.
Después de perforar el panel 3 conformando de ese modo una abertura 20 de perforación, se neutraliza la diferencia de presión produciendo un cambio en el área 17 deformable del panel desde la forma cóncava ilustrada en la figura 2A a la forma convexa ilustrada en la figura 2B.After drilling the panel 3 forming that way a perforation opening 20, the difference is neutralized of pressure producing a change in the deformable area 17 of the panel from the concave shape illustrated in figure 2A to the convex shape illustrated in figure 2B.
Obviamente, al tener una forma cóncava como se ilustra en la figura 2A, existe un espacio 12 de agarre mayor y mejorado por debajo de la parte 8 posterior de la lengüeta y del panel 3 en la posición de la parte 17 deformable del panel.Obviously, having a concave shape as you illustrated in Figure 2A, there is a larger grip space 12 and improved below the rear part 8 of the tongue and the panel 3 in the position of the deformable part 17 of the panel.
Las figuras 3A y 3B muestran una alternativa de la lata 21 de acuerdo con el invento. La lata está dotada de un panel 22 que tiene una forma oblicua. El panel tiene un área 23 central (al menos por debajo de la parte 8 posterior de la lengüeta 6), conformando de ese modo el espacio 12 de agarre debajo de la parte 8 posterior de la lengüeta.Figures 3A and 3B show an alternative of can 21 according to the invention. The can is equipped with a panel 22 that has an oblique shape. The panel has an area 23 center (at least below the rear part 8 of the tongue 6), thereby forming the grip space 12 below the rear part 8 of the tongue.
El panel 22 está soldado al cuerpo 24. Debido al contenido caliente de la lata 21 después del cierre existirá una presión interna que es menor que la presión atmosférica y, por consiguiente, existe una diferencia de presión negativa sobre el panel 22. Debido a esta diferencia de presión negativa la parte 23 deformable del panel tiene una forma cóncava.Panel 22 is welded to body 24. Due to hot contents of can 21 after closing there will be a internal pressure that is less than atmospheric pressure and, by consequently, there is a negative pressure difference on the panel 22. Due to this negative pressure difference part 23 The deformable panel has a concave shape.
Al perforar una abertura en el panel 22 apalancando o inclinando la lengüeta 6, el área 23 deformable del panel cambia a una forma convexa.When drilling an opening in panel 22 by levering or tilting the tongue 6, the deformable area 23 of the panel changes to a convex shape.
Las figuras 4A y 4B muestran otra lata 25 de acuerdo con el invento. El panel 26 superior tiene un área 27 central deformable del panel, el cual tiene una forma ondulada en sección transversal. Esta forma ondulada define una depresión 28 por debajo de la parte 8 posterior de la lengüeta conformando de ese modo el mayor espacio 12 de agarre.Figures 4A and 4B show another can 25 of according to the invention. The upper panel 26 has an area 27 deformable central panel, which has a wavy shape in cross section. This wavy shape defines a depression 28 by under the rear part 8 of the tongue forming that mode the largest 12 grip space.
La figura 4B muestra que después de la apertura de la lata 25 con la lengüeta 6 y después del equilibrado de presión sobre el panel 26 superior, el panel 27 deformable cambió de forma de tal manera que la depresión 28 se transformó en un área 29 más plana. Sin embargo, la línea 30 de tendencia cambió de una forma substancialmente cóncava a una forma substancialmente convexa.Figure 4B shows that after opening of can 25 with tongue 6 and after pressure balancing on top panel 26, deformable panel 27 changed shape in such a way that depression 28 was transformed into an area 29 more flat. However, trend line 30 changed in a way substantially concave to a substantially convex shape.
Las figuras 5A/5B muestran otra lata 31 de acuerdo con el invento. La lata 31 tiene un panel 32 que comprende un área deformable del panel que tiene una depresión 34 anular y una porción 35 plana central. Después de la neutralización de la diferencia de presión negativa sobre el panel 32, el área 33 deformable del panel cambia de la forma representada en la figura 5A a la forma representada en Ja figura 5B, por lo cual la depresión 34 ha desaparecido y la porción 35 central se ha movido hacia arriba. De nuevo, la línea 36 de tendencia ha cambiado de una forma substancialmente cóncava a una forma substancialmente convexa.Figures 5A / 5B show another can 31 of according to the invention. Can 31 has a panel 32 comprising a deformable area of the panel having an annular depression 34 and a central flat portion 35. After neutralization of the negative pressure difference on panel 32, area 33 deformable panel changes as shown in figure 5A to the form represented in Ja figure 5B, whereby depression 34 has disappeared and the central portion 35 has moved upward. Again, trend line 36 has changed in a way substantially concave to a substantially convex shape.
La lata, el cuerpo y/o el panel se pueden fabricar de metal, tal como aluminio y acero.The can, the body and / or the panel can be manufacture of metal, such as aluminum and steel.
Las latas pueden ser redondas o no redondas (ovaladas y rectangulares). Cuando la lata es redonda puede tener un diámetro de desde aproximadamente 52 hasta 153 mm. Para los diámetros menores, el panel que tiene una estructura escalonada tendrá aproximadamente 1 ó 2 escalones pero para mayores diámetros el número de escalones puede aumentar. La ventaja de dichas estructuras escalonadas es proporcionar rigidez en tas estructuras escalonadas y permitir las mejores propiedades de deformación flexible controladas y ligadas al área deformable del panel, que generalmente es el área central del panel.The cans can be round or non-round (oval and rectangular). When the can is round it can have a diameter from about 52 to 153 mm. For the smaller diameters, the panel that has a stepped structure It will have approximately 1 or 2 steps but for larger diameters The number of steps may increase. The advantage of said staggered structures is to provide rigidity in these structures staggered and allow the best deformation properties flexible controlled and linked to the deformable area of the panel, which It is usually the central area of the panel.
Cuando la lata está fabricada de acero el panel puede tener un espesor desde 0,13 a 0,30 mm. El espesor puede ser menor en el área que conforma el área deformable del panel.When the can is made of steel the panel It can have a thickness from 0.13 to 0.30 mm. The thickness can be smaller in the area that forms the deformable area of the panel.
