Abstract

The lid (1) has a hooking element (6) which engages behind the edge reinforcement of a container. Hooked latches (8) which are arranged resiliently opposite the hooking element (6) consist of a part of the outer lid edge (2) and are provided for engaging behind the edge reinforcement. Seen around the outer circumference of the lid (1), the latches (8) are arranged with a mutual smaller spacing (A) of their facing ends (8b) corresponding at least to the span of a child's hand and preferably larger than such a span. Since, even when using both hands, a child cannot grip over the circumference of a container in order to actuate the latches (8) simultaneously, a lid with a child safeguard is provided, e.g. for box-like or drum-like containers.

Description

La présente invention concerne un couvercle sle sécurité ne pouvant pas être ouvert par les enfants, du genre qui est destine aux récipients en forme de boîte ou de tambour présentant un renforcement intérieur de leur bord, et en particulier un bord retourné vers l'intérieur, et du genre qui comprend un bortl extérieur s'étendant au moins partiellement au-dessus du renforcement du bord du récipient. The present invention relates to a safety cover which cannot be opened by children, of the kind which is intended for containers in the form of a box or a drum having an inner reinforcement of their edge, and in particular an edge turned inward, and of the kind which comprises an external bortl extending at least partially above the reinforcement of the edge of the container.

On connait des couvercles dans lesquels sont incorporés des éléments supplémentaires qui servent de sécurité pour les enfants et qu'il faut actionner pour ouvrir le couvercle, mais ces éléments rendent compliquée la construction de tels couvercles, de sorte gue leur fabrication est onéreuse. Lids are known in which are incorporated additional elements which serve as safety for children and which have to be actuated to open the cover, but these elements make the construction of such lids complicated, so that their manufacture is expensive.

Le but de l'invention est la réalisation d'un couvercle comprenant une sécurité pour qu'il ne puisse pas être ouvert par les enfants, mais qui soit néanmoins simple à construire et qui puisse être réalisé en une seule pièce. The object of the invention is to provide a cover comprising a safety device so that it cannot be opened by children, but which is nevertheless simple to construct and which can be produced in one piece.

Selon l'invention, ce but est atteint grâce à un couvercle du genre spécifié ci-dessus qui est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend deux organes de verrouillage en forme de crochets qui sont agencés élastiquement et peuvent être actionnés de l'extérieur, qui viennent en prise à l'arrière du renforcement du bord du récipient, dont les organes d'actionnement présentent entre eux une distance supérieure à l'empan d'une main d'enfant, et en face desquels est disposé au moins un élément en forme de crochet. According to the invention, this object is achieved thanks to a cover of the kind specified above which is characterized in that it comprises two locking members in the form of hooks which are arranged resiliently and can be actuated from the outside, which engage at the rear of the reinforcement of the edge of the container, the actuating members of which have a distance greater than the span of a child's hand, and in front of which is arranged at least one shaped element hook.

Ces organes de verrouillage peuvent être disposés sur le me bord latéral d'un couvercle carré ou sur la demicirconférence d'un couvercle rond, et, dans ce dernier cas, la distance entre leurs éléments d'actionnement et les extrémités du diamètre correspondant est au moins égale à l'empan d'une main d'enft. On rappelle ici que l'empan est la distance comprise entre l'extrémité du pouce et celle du petit doigt lorsqu'ils sont écartés au maximum. These locking members can be arranged on the side edge of a square cover or on the half-circumference of a round cover, and, in the latter case, the distance between their actuating elements and the ends of the corresponding diameter is at less equal to the span of a hand of hell. It is recalled here that the span is the distance between the end of the thumb and that of the little finger when they are spread apart to the maximum.

Selon une forme avantageuse de réalisation, chaque organe de verrouillage est relié à la partie du bortt qui est s'étend au-dessus du renforcement < lu iJortl du récipient, et il est séparé à l'une de ses extrémités des parties du bord qui lui sont adjacontes dans la direction de la périphérie et totalement séparé des autres parties du couvercle par une entaille, de sorte qu'il puisse être déplacé radialement. According to an advantageous embodiment, each locking member is connected to the part of the bortt which is extended above the reinforcement <lu iJortl of the container, and it is separated at one of its ends from the parts of the edge which they are adjacent in the direction of the periphery and completely separated from the other parts of the cover by a notch, so that it can be moved radially.

En outre, au moins un élément en forme de crochet peut être également réalisé sous la forme d'un organe de verrouillage. In addition, at least one hook-shaped element can also be produced in the form of a locking member.

Selon une autre forme de réalisation, l'organe de verrouillage est relié à la surface rlii couvercle, mais il est séparé du bord de cc dernier par une coupure qui, aux entre mités de l'organe de verrouillage, est recourbée en forme de U dans la direction du milieu du couvercle, de telle sorte que cet organe de verrouillage puisse être déplacé seiisible- ment vers le centre du récipient. According to another embodiment, the locking member is connected to the surface rlii cover, but it is separated from the edge of the latter by a cut which, at the half of the locking member, is bent in a U shape in the direction of the middle of the lid, so that this locking member can be moved clearly towards the center of the container.

Dans ce cas, la hauteur des parties recourbées de l'entaille correspond sensiblement, de préférence, à celle de l'organe de verrouillage. En outre, un organe en forme de crochet supplémentaire peut être disposé entre les organes de verrouillage, et sa partie qui est au-dessus du renforcement du bord s'étend alors jusqu'aux organes de verrouillage, cependant que la partie adjacente et proche du couvercle de l'entaille est élargie en une fente, la partie qui est en prise à l'arrière du bord pouvant être recourbée élastiquement dans la direction du milieu du couvercle. In this case, the height of the curved parts of the notch corresponds substantially, preferably, to that of the locking member. In addition, an additional hook-shaped member can be arranged between the locking members, and its part which is above the reinforcement of the edge then extends to the locking members, while the adjacent and close to the the notch cover is widened into a slot, the part which is engaged at the rear of the edge can be bent elastically in the direction of the middle of the cover.

L'invention prévoit en outre que les parties des organes de verrouillage et/ou des éléments en forme de crochets qui sont en prise à l'arrière du bord peuvent être munies de ressauts qui diminuent dans la direction de leurs extrémités. The invention further provides that the parts of the locking members and / or hook-shaped elements which are engaged at the rear of the edge may be provided with projections which decrease in the direction of their ends.

Selon une forme de réalisation supplémentaire, l'organe de verrouillage présente un renforcement qui s'étend jusqu'au-dessus de l'endroit où il est fixé. According to an additional embodiment, the locking member has a reinforcement which extends to above the place where it is fixed.

La description qui va suivre, et qui ne présente aucun caractère limitatif, permettra de bien compren < l re comment la présente invention peut être mise en pratique. The description which follows, and which has no limiting character, will make it possible to understand clearly how the present invention can be put into practice.

Elle doit être lue en regard des dessins annexes, parmi lesquels
- La figure l représente uiit' vue de 1' iiitérieur d'un couvercle selon l'invention
- La figure 2 montre une vue en coupe d'un couvercle monté sur un récipient en forme de tambour
- La figure 3 représente une vue de l'intérieur d'une autre forme de réalisation de l'objet de la figure 1
- La figure 4 montre une vue en coupe d'un couvercle selon la figure 3 qui est monté sur un récipient en forme de tambour.It should be read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, among which
- Figure l shows uiit 'view of 1' iiiterrieur a cover according to the invention
- Figure 2 shows a sectional view of a cover mounted on a drum-shaped container
- Figure 3 shows a view of the interior of another embodiment of the object of Figure 1
- Figure 4 shows a sectional view of a cover according to Figure 3 which is mounted on a drum-shaped container.

Le couvercle 1 comprend Lin bord extérieur 2 et un bord intérieur 3 qui s'appuie sur un renforcement 4 du bord du récipient 5 en forme de tambour, lequel renforcement est constitué par ce bord lui-même qui est roulé vers l'intérieur. En outre, le couvercle comporte un élément en forme de crochet 6 qui vient en prise à l'arrière du renforcement 4 du bord du récipient. La partie ainsi en prise s'étend sur une certaine zone et elle est réduite à ses extrémités 7, de sorte qu'elle fait de moins en moins saillie à mesure que l'on se rapproche des extrémités. Par ailleurs, l'élément en forme de crochet 6 constitue une partie du bord intérieur 3. The cover 1 comprises an outer edge 2 and an inner edge 3 which rests on a reinforcement 4 of the edge of the container 5 in the form of a drum, which reinforcement consists of this edge itself which is rolled inwards. In addition, the cover comprises a hook-shaped element 6 which engages at the rear of the reinforcement 4 of the edge of the container. The part thus engaged extends over a certain zone and it is reduced at its ends 7, so that it projects less and less as one approaches the ends. Furthermore, the hook-shaped element 6 constitutes part of the inner edge 3.

En face de l'élément en forme de crochet sont disposés à une certaine distance l'un par rapport à l'autre des organes de verrouillage 8 en forme de crochets qui sont constitués par une partie du bord extérieur 2 du couvercle à partir de laquelle s'étendent des éléments recourbés 9 qui viennent en prise derrière le renforcement 4 du récipient 5 et qui sont conformés de la meme manière que les extrémités 7 de l'élément en forme de crochet 6. Les organes de verrouillage 8 sont séparés du bord extérieur 2 par des entailles 10 et de la surface du couvercle par des entailles 11. Opposite the hook-shaped element are arranged at a certain distance relative to each other locking members 8 in the form of hooks which are constituted by a part of the outer edge 2 of the cover from which extend from the curved elements 9 which engage behind the reinforcement 4 of the container 5 and which are shaped in the same way as the ends 7 of the hook-shaped element 6. The locking members 8 are separated from the outer edge 2 by notches 10 and the surface of the cover by notches 11.

Ils présentent en outre un renforcement 12 qui se rétrécit en allant de l'entaille 10 vers l'endroit où a lieu la transition avec le bord 2 du couvercle. Le bord intérieur 3 fait défaut dans cette zone.They also have a reinforcement 12 which tapers from the notch 10 towards the place where the transition takes place with the edge 2 of the cover. The inner edge 3 is lacking in this area.

Si l'on enfonce les organes de verrouillage 8 par pression sur leurs surfaces extérieures qui constituent une partie du bord 2 du couvercle, les éléments 9 se dégagent du renforcement 4 du bord et, dans cette zone, le couvercle peut être soulevé, puis enlevé complètement. Comme la distance entre les organes de verrouillage 8 a été choisie de telle manière qu'elle soit supérieure à l'empan d'une main d'enfant, un enfant, même en utilisant ses deux mains, ne peut pas saisir le récipient sur sa demi-circonférence et, simultanément, actionner les organes de verrouillage, ce qui veut dire qu'il ne peut pas tenir le récipient lors de l'actionnement, et ainsi cette construction constitue une sécurité efficace à l'égard des enfants, en particulier parce que la force qui est nécessaire pour l'ouverture du couvercle peut être réglée grâce à une réalisation adéquate des renforcements 12. If the locking members 8 are pressed by pressure on their outer surfaces which constitute a part of the edge 2 of the cover, the elements 9 emerge from the reinforcement 4 of the edge and, in this zone, the cover can be lifted, then removed completely. As the distance between the locking members 8 has been chosen so that it is greater than the span of a child's hand, a child, even using both hands, cannot grasp the container on its half circumference and, simultaneously, actuate the locking members, which means that it cannot hold the container during actuation, and thus this construction constitutes an effective safety with regard to children, in particular because that the force which is necessary for the opening of the cover can be adjusted by means of an adequate production of the reinforcements 12.

Comme on le voit sur la figure 3, il est également possible de faire appel à deux éléments en forme de crochets 6. En outre, on peut aussi réaliser ces éléments en forme de crochets, ou un seul d'entre eux, de manière analogue aux organes de verrouillage 8, c'est-à-dire de façon que trois ou, respectivement, quatre organes de verrouillage 8 soient présents et doivent être actionnés. As can be seen in FIG. 3, it is also possible to use two elements in the form of hooks 6. In addition, these elements can also be produced in the form of hooks, or just one of them, in a similar manner. to the locking members 8, that is to say so that three or, respectively, four locking members 8 are present and must be actuated.

La forme de réalisation selon la figure 3 comporte dieux éléments en forme de crochets 6 qui sont réalisés de manière à correspondre aux extrémités 7 de l'élément en forme de crochet 6 de la figure 1. Dans ce cas, cependant, les organes de verrouillage 8 en forme de crochets sont reliés à la surface du couvercle, mais ils sont toutefois séparés par des entailles 13 des parties du couvercle qui sont latéralement adjacentes. L'élément 9 qui vient en prise derrière le renforcement 4 du bord constitue un prolongement du bord intérieur 3, cependant que l'organe de verrouillage 8 est séparé des parties du couvercle dans la zone du bord extérieur 2 du couvercle par une entaille 14 qui constitue la partie médiane d'une entaille en forme de U à partir de laquelle l'entaille 13 est obtenue par pliage.Cet organe de verrouillage comporte, là aussi, un renforcement 12 qui s'étend au-dessus des entailles 13. Entre les organes de verrouillage 8 peut être disposé un élément en forme dc crochet supplémentaire 6 qui est également séparé des organes de verrouillage 8 dans la zone du couvercle qui est située au-dessus du renforcement 4 du bord du récipient, et ce, au moyen d'une entaille 13 qui se prolonge par une fente 15 dans la zone inférieure qui lui est adjacente. En outre, le couvercle comporte dans cette zone un rebord extérieur 16 qui constitue une surface de préhension pour l'ouverture du couvercle. The embodiment according to FIG. 3 comprises two hook-shaped elements 6 which are made so as to correspond to the ends 7 of the hook-shaped element 6 in FIG. 1. In this case, however, the locking members 8 in the form of hooks are connected to the surface of the cover, but they are however separated by notches 13 from the parts of the cover which are laterally adjacent. The element 9 which engages behind the reinforcement 4 of the edge constitutes an extension of the internal edge 3, while the locking member 8 is separated from the parts of the cover in the area of the external edge 2 of the cover by a notch 14 which constitutes the middle part of a U-shaped notch from which the notch 13 is obtained by folding. This locking member also includes a reinforcement 12 which extends above the notches 13. Between the locking members 8 can be arranged an additional hook-shaped element 6 which is also separate from the locking members 8 in the area of the cover which is located above the reinforcement 4 of the edge of the container, and this, by means of a notch 13 which is extended by a slot 15 in the lower zone which is adjacent to it. In addition, the cover has in this zone an outer rim 16 which constitutes a gripping surface for opening the cover.

Pour ouvrir le csvuvercle, on pousse vers le bas les organes de verrouillage 8 et, à i' ai < le du rebord 16, on bascule et on enlève le couvercle. Comme les entailles 13 sont parallèles au rayon du couvercle qui est situé dans le plan de symétrie de l'organe de verrouillage 8, la profondeur jusqu'à laquelle ce dernier peut être enfoncé est déterminée par la largeur des entailles 13. Pour éviter tout coincement contre l'élément en forme de crochet 6 qui se trouve entre les organes de verrouillage, l'entaille 13 doit être élargie dans sa partie inférieure en formant une fente 15. To open the valve, the locking members 8 are pushed downwards and, at the edge of the rim 16, are tilted and the cover is removed. As the notches 13 are parallel to the radius of the cover which is located in the plane of symmetry of the locking member 8, the depth to which the latter can be pushed in is determined by the width of the notches 13. To avoid jamming against the hook-shaped element 6 which is located between the locking members, the notch 13 must be widened in its lower part by forming a slot 15.

il n'est possible de soulever le couvercle que si l'élément en forme de crochet 6 qui est situé entre les organes de verrouillage 8 peut être plié élastiquement et si son déplacement radial, qui est indispensable, n'est pas empêché par les organes de verrouillage. Tel n'est pas le cas, par exemple, dans la position représentée sur la figure 4. C'est seulement lorsque l'on continue à pousser sur les organes de verrouillage 8 que l'élément 6 en forme de crochet se trouve libéré et peut se déplacer radialement vers l'intérieur. Ainsi, pour ouvrir le couvercle, il n'est pas seulement nécessaire de pousser les deux organes de verrouillage vers le bas avec une force prdétcrminée, et ces organes doivent encore être enfoncés jusqu a une certaine profondeur avant que le couvercle puisse être soulevé, ce pour quoi une certaine force est également nécessaire. it is only possible to lift the cover if the hook-shaped element 6 which is located between the locking members 8 can be folded elastically and if its radial movement, which is essential, is not prevented by the members lock. This is not the case, for example, in the position shown in FIG. 4. It is only when one continues to push on the locking members 8 that the hook-shaped element 6 is released and can move radially inward. Thus, in order to open the cover, it is not only necessary to push the two locking members down with a predetermined force, and these members must still be pressed down to a certain depth before the cover can be lifted, for which a certain force is also necessary.

La fermeture du couvercle se fait en accomplissant les mêmes gestes que lors de l'ouverture, mais dans l'ordre inverse. Dans certaines formes de réalisation, et par exemple lorsque le couvercle comporte quatre organes de verrouillage 8, le couvercle peut être fermé par simple pression.  Closing the lid is done by performing the same gestures as when opening, but in reverse order. In certain embodiments, and for example when the cover has four locking members 8, the cover can be closed by simple pressure.
