Description

Cierre a prueba de niños Childproof closure

La presente invención se refiere en líneas generales a un cierre a prueba de niños y en particular, a un cierre de presión y giro, según el preámbulo de la reivindicación 1. The present invention relates in general to a childproof closure and in particular to a pressure and rotation closure, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Se han propuesto muchos tipos distintos de cierres de seguridad, o cierres a prueba de niños. Entre ellos, se encuentra una clase conocida como de "presión y giro”. Este presenta una falda con rosca para aplicar y retirar enroscando del cuello de un recipiente, y una parte deformable que comprende una o más aletas o lengüetas interiores que cooperan con los elementos de soporte correspondientes del cuello del recipiente para resistir la acción de desenroscado hasta que la parte deformable del cierre se deforma para desplazar las aletas o lengüetas alejándose de los elementos de soporte. En los documentos GB 1 521 201, GB 1 387 572 y EP 0 443 868 se dan a conocer ejemplos de cierre de este tipo. Many different types of safety closures, or childproof closures have been proposed. Among them, there is a class known as “pressure and rotation.” This has a skirt with thread to apply and remove by screwing the neck of a container, and a deformable part comprising one or more inner fins or tongues that cooperate with corresponding support elements of the neck of the container to resist the unscrewing action until the deformable part of the closure deforms to move the fins or tongues away from the support elements In documents GB 1 521 201, GB 1 387 572 and EP 0 443 868 examples of this type of closure are disclosed.

La patente US nº 4.345.690 da a conocer un cierre según el preámbulo de la reivindicación 1 que comprende una banda anular unida a la falda mediante unos puentes separados, en los que la aplicación una presión radial en unas posiciones específicas permite que la banda se deforme y, por consiguiente, permite que el cierre se abra. US Patent No. 4,345,690 discloses a closure according to the preamble of claim 1 comprising an annular band attached to the skirt by means of separate bridges, in which the application of a radial pressure in specific positions allows the band to be deformed and therefore allows the closure to open.

Un problema del que adolecen los cierres de presión y giro es que la presión ejercida sobre el cierre no siempre tiene un resultado satisfactorio debido a que requiere el movimiento de las aletas o lengüetas, ya que la parte deformable no se deforma suficientemente. A problem that the pressure and rotation closures suffer from is that the pressure exerted on the closure does not always have a satisfactory result because it requires the movement of the fins or tongues, since the deformable part is not sufficiently deformed.

La presente invención pretende superar los problemas de los cierres conocidos de presión y giro. The present invention aims to overcome the problems of known pressure and rotation closures.

Según un primer aspecto de la presente invención, se proporciona un cierre a prueba de niños de presión y giro, comprendiendo el cierre un cuerpo que presenta una falda lateral abierta en un extremo y una banda anular a prueba de niños que pasa alrededor del extremo abierto, presentando la banda un par de almohadillas de presión y dirigiendo los medios de bloqueo dispuestos circunferencialmente entre las almohadillas para bloquear el cierre un modo que se pueda soltar en un recipiente, caracterizado porque la falda se une a la banda únicamente en la zona de las almohadillas para definir un espacio circunferencial entre las almohadillas que proporciona una zona con una rigidez inferior en la proximidad de los medios de bloqueo. According to a first aspect of the present invention, a child and pressure proof closure is provided, the closure comprising a body having an open side skirt at one end and a childproof annular band that passes around the open end , the band presenting a pair of pressure pads and directing the blocking means arranged circumferentially between the pads to block the closure in a way that can be released in a container, characterized in that the skirt joins the band only in the area of the pads to define a circumferential space between the pads that provides an area with a lower stiffness in the vicinity of the locking means.

Al proporcionar unas zonas con una rigidez inferior, se mejora la deformación/flexión de la falda en la zona de los medios de bloqueo. By providing areas with a lower stiffness, the deformation / flexion of the skirt in the area of the locking means is improved.

La falda lateral puede comprender una pared lateral en la que el nervio o cada nervio se dispone sobre o en la pared. El nervio o cada nervio puede se puede disponer en el interior y/o el exterior de la pared. En algunas formas de realización, los nervios se realizan para "reducir el peso" retirando material. En las formas de realización sin una pared, la misma reducción del peso puede tener como resultado una falda constituida completamente por los nervios con espacios entre los mismos. En una forma de realización, se realiza una configuración de tipo "cesta" o "retícula" entrecruzando los nervios. The side skirt may comprise a side wall in which the nerve or each nerve is disposed on or in the wall. The nerve or each nerve can be arranged inside and / or outside the wall. In some embodiments, the ribs are made to "reduce weight" by removing material. In embodiments without a wall, the same weight reduction may result in a skirt made entirely of ribs with spaces between them. In one embodiment, a "basket" or "reticle" type configuration is made by crossing the nerves.

El cuerpo puede presentar, por lo menos parcialmente, forma de cúpula. Por ejemplo, se prevé un cuerpo que presente totalmente forma de cúpula, tal como un cuerpo frustocónico. The body may have, at least partially, a dome shape. For example, a body that is fully dome-shaped, such as a frustoconic body, is provided.

Se puede proporcionar la zona con una rigidez inferior mediante una variación del material del cuerpo del cierre. Por ejemplo, se podría utilizar un material más deformable para realizar por lo menos una parte de la falda de la zona de los medios de bloqueo. The area with a lower stiffness can be provided by a variation of the material of the closure body. For example, a more deformable material could be used to make at least a part of the skirt in the area of the blocking means.

La variación puede comprender una parte con el espesor reducido, por ejemplo un canal interior o exterior. The variation may comprise a part with the reduced thickness, for example an inner or outer channel.

La relación entre el espesor de la parte con el espesor reducido con respecto espesor del cuerpo directamente adyacente puede estar comprendida entre 1:5 y 4:5. The ratio between the thickness of the part with the reduced thickness with respect to the thickness of the directly adjacent body may be between 1: 5 and 4: 5.

El espesor de la parte con el espesor reducido puede estar comprendido entre 0,1 mm y 0,5 mm. The thickness of the part with the reduced thickness may be between 0.1 mm and 0.5 mm.

La variación puede comprender una o más ventanas. Las ventanas pueden comprender aberturas que pasan a través de todo el espesor del cuerpo. Alternativamente, las ventanas pueden comprender unas membranas con la sección de la pared reducida. Las ventanas/membranas pueden disponerse con redes o puentes de conexión para proporcionar estabilidad. Además de aumentar la flexibilidad de la falda del cierre y ayudar a dirigir las fuerzas de presión hacia el área requerida, la eliminación de material reduce los costes. The variation may comprise one or more windows. The windows may comprise openings that pass through the entire thickness of the body. Alternatively, the windows may comprise membranes with the reduced wall section. Windows / membranes can be arranged with networks or connecting bridges to provide stability. In addition to increasing the flexibility of the closure skirt and helping to direct the pressure forces towards the required area, the removal of material reduces costs.

La zona con el espesor reducido se pueden realizar en una banda a prueba de niños proporcionada por el cierre. La banda se puede conectar con el cuerpo del cierre mediante uno o más nervios. La banda puede proporcionar la zona con un espesor reducido. Se puede mejorar la zona con un espesor reducido retirando nervios de conexión en The area with the reduced thickness can be made in a childproof band provided by the closure. The band can be connected to the closure body by one or more ribs. The band can provide the area with a reduced thickness. The area with a reduced thickness can be improved by removing connection ribs in

In other embodiments (not shown) some or all of a plurality of ribs extend from a point on the side wall below the top plate. Some of the nerves end in the second step 355, while others continue as will be described in more detail below.

En el extremo de la falda opuesto a la placa superior 320, se dispone una banda a prueba de niños 365 o un aro. El exterior de la banda comprende un par de almohadillas de presión diametralmente opuestas 331, 332. En la At the end of the skirt opposite the upper plate 320, a childproof band 365 or a hoop is provided. The outside of the band comprises a pair of diametrically opposed pressure pads 331, 332. In the

presente forma de realización, las almohadillas son sustancialmente triangulares; por supuesto, son posibles otras formas. La banda 365 es anular y pasa alrededor del extremo abierto de la sección inferior de la pared anular lateral 353. La In this embodiment, the pads are substantially triangular; Of course, other ways are possible. The band 365 is annular and passes around the open end of the lower section of the lateral annular wall 353. The

banda 365 es coaxial con el extremo abierto, pero con un diámetro superior, de tal modo que existe un espacio de band 365 is coaxial with the open end, but with a larger diameter, such that there is a space of

separación 366. La pared lateral 350 se une a la banda 365 mediante los nervios 360. Con mayor exactitud, en la presente forma de realización se extienden siete nervios 360a más allá del segundo escalón en la zona de cada almohadilla y se unen con la almohadilla/banda. En otras formas de realización, la banda se puede unir a la pared lateral mediante un número distinto de nervios, o mediante una ventana o una sección de pared reducida de tipo membrana. separation 366. The side wall 350 is joined to the band 365 by the ribs 360. More precisely, in the present embodiment seven ribs 360a extend beyond the second step in the area of each pad and join with the pad /band. In other embodiments, the band can be attached to the side wall by a different number of ribs, or by a window or a reduced wall section of the membrane type.

Dos lengüetas en forma de cuña diametralmente opuestas 340, 345 se disponen en el interior de la banda. Las lengüetas 340, 345 se disponen circunferencialmente entre las almohadillas de presión 331, 332 en la pared lateral 330 de tal modo que las almohadillas 331, 332 y las lengüetas 340, 345 se encuentran separadas 90°entre sí, del mismo modo que las agujas de una brújula. Two diametrically opposed wedge-shaped tongues 340, 345 are arranged inside the band. The tabs 340, 345 are arranged circumferentially between the pressure pads 331, 332 on the side wall 330 such that the pads 331, 332 and the tabs 340, 345 are 90 ° apart from each other, in the same way as the needles of a compass.

5 Haciendo referencia a continuación a las figuras 4 y 5, se representan unas vistas esquemáticas en planta inferior del cierre 310. 5 Referring now to Figures 4 and 5, schematic views are shown on the lower floor of the closure 310.

El cierre 310 se representa unido a un cuello del recipiente 370, que comprende unos elementos con rosca exterior (no representados) para acoplarse con las roscas correspondientes del cierre 310. El cuello del recipiente 370 The closure 310 is shown attached to a neck of the container 370, which comprises elements with an external thread (not shown) to engage with the corresponding threads of the closure 310. The neck of the container 370

10 comprende asimismo un par de lengüetas de unión diametralmente opuestas 375, 380 dispuestas para acoplarse con las lengüetas de bloqueo 340, 345 del cierre. 10 also comprises a pair of diametrically opposed connecting tabs 375, 380 arranged to engage with the locking tabs 340, 345 of the closure.

La figura 4 representa el cierre en la posición de bloqueo en la que el cierre se encuentra totalmente enroscado al cuello del recipiente 370 y las lengüetas de bloqueo 340, 345 acopladas a las lengüetas de unión 375, 380 en el 15 cuello del recipiente. En esta posición, el cierre no se puede girar con respecto al cuello del recipiente debido a la unión del cierre y las lengüetas del recipiente. Para girar el cierre, las lengüetas 340, 345 se han de desplazar radialmente hacia el exterior con respecto a las lengüetas de unión 375, 380. Ello se realiza presionando la banda en las almohadillas de presión 331, 332. La banda es flexible y la acción de presionar provoca la ovalización de la misma tal como se representa en la figura 5. Cuando se flexiona la banda, se provoca asimismo la flexión hacia el Figure 4 depicts the closure in the locked position in which the closure is fully threaded to the neck of the container 370 and the locking tabs 340, 345 coupled to the connecting tabs 375, 380 in the neck of the container. In this position, the closure cannot be rotated with respect to the neck of the container due to the union of the closure and the tongues of the container. To rotate the closure, the tabs 340, 345 have to be moved radially outwards with respect to the connecting tabs 375, 380. This is done by pressing the band on the pressure pads 331, 332. The band is flexible and the Pressing action causes ovalization thereof as shown in Figure 5. When the band is flexed, flexion is also caused towards the

20 interior de los nervios unidos a la misma, lo que a su vez provoca la ovalización de la pared lateral Las lengüetas 340, 345 pueden pasar ahora alrededor de la parte exterior de las lengüetas de unión 375, 380 de tal modo que con la combinación de la presión y un movimiento de giro se puede desenroscar el cierre. 20 inside the ribs attached thereto, which in turn causes ovalization of the side wall The tabs 340, 345 can now pass around the outside of the connecting tabs 375, 380 such that with the combination of the pressure and a turning movement the screw can be unscrewed.

Debido a que los nervios pueden unirse únicamente a la banda 365 en la zona de las almohadillas, se crean unas Because the nerves can only join the band 365 in the area of the pads, some are created

25 regiones con una rigidez inferior en la proximidad de las lengüetas, donde no existen nervios extendidos. Por consiguiente, se reduce la fuerza necesaria ejercida sobre las almohadillas. Ello tiene el mismo efecto que las ventanas localizadas o las secciones de la pared de tipo membrana. 25 regions with a lower stiffness in the vicinity of the tabs, where there are no extended nerves. Consequently, the necessary force exerted on the pads is reduced. This has the same effect as localized windows or sections of the membrane wall.
