Description

Dispositif destiné à faciliter l'ouverture et/ou la fermeture des récipients Device for facilitating the opening and / or closing of the containers

La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant d'ouvrir et de fermer plus facilement un récipient équipé de ce dispositif. L'ouverture et la fermeture d'un récipient sont traditionnellement effectuées à l'aide d'un bouchon sur lequel il faut pouvoir exercer une certaine force avec les doigts. Certaines personnes, à l'image des personnes âgées, n'ont pas la capacité d'exercer une telle force avec leurs doigts et éprouvent des difficultés à ouvrir des récipients. Le dispositif selon l'invention permet d'exercer une force avec la main et non plus à partir des doigts ce qui permet à chaque individu d'exercer une force plus importante et donc de faciliter l'ouverture et la fermeture d'un récipient équipé de ce dispositif. The present invention relates to a device for opening and closing more easily a container equipped with this device. The opening and closing of a container are traditionally performed with a cap on which it must be able to exert a certain force with the fingers. Some people, like the elderly, do not have the ability to exert such force with their fingers and have difficulty opening containers. The device of the invention allows to exert a force with the hand and not from the fingers which allows each individual to exert a greater force and thus facilitate the opening and closing of a container equipped of this device.

Le dispositif comprend un bouchon sur une paroi supérieure (opposée au récipient sur lequel il est destiné à être rapporté) duquel sont prévus deux éléments en saillie, et un manche muni de deux ouvertures de forme complémentaire à ces éléments et disposés de telle sorte que le manche puisse s'emboîter sur les éléments. The device comprises a cap on an upper wall (opposite to the container on which it is intended to be attached) of which two projecting elements are provided, and a handle provided with two openings of complementary shape to these elements and arranged so that the sleeve can fit on the elements.

On peut prévoir les dispositions supplémentaires suivantes, seules ou en combinaison : - les éléments en saillie sont alignés suivant un diamètre du bouchon ; - les éléments en saillie sont disposés de part et d'autre du 25 centre de la paroi supérieure ; les éléments en saillie sont à section carrée ; - les éléments en saillie sont venus de matière ; - les ouvertures du manche sont alignées suivant un axe principal du manche ; 30 - les ouvertures du manche sont traversantes. Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de démultiplier l'effort exercé par l'utilisateur qui utilisera désormais sa main pour ouvrir et fermer le récipient. En utilisant le manche comme levier, l'utilisateur bénéficiera ainsi d'une plus grande facilité d'ouverture et/ou de fermeture du récipient. L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lumière des dessins annexés qui illustrent un mode de réalisation : La figure 1 est une vue en perspective éclatée illustrant le dispositif selon l'invention. - La figure 2 est une vue en coupe du vue de dessus, le dispositif de l'invention, le manche étant assemblé au bouchon. On a représenté sur les dessins un dispositif destiné à faciliter 10 l'ouverture et/ou la fermeture d'un récipient. Ce dispositif comprend un bouchon 1 et un manche 2 formant levier. Le bouchon 1 présente une jupe 3 cylindrique par laquelle il est destiné à être vissé sur le col d'un récipient (non représenté), cette 15 jupe 3 se terminant par une paroi supérieure 4. La paroi supérieure 4 est munie de deux éléments 5 et 6, de préférence alignés suivant un diamètre de la paroi supérieure 4, et faisant saillie de la paroi 4 vers l'extérieur du bouchon 1, c'est-à-dire à l'opposé du récipient. 20 Selon un mode de réalisation, la hauteur des deux éléments 5 et 6 est supérieure à l'épaisseur du manche 2. Comme on peut le voir dans l'exemple illustré sur les dessins, les deux éléments 5, 6 peuvent être de section carrée, et se présenter ainsi sous forme de cubes. Selon un mode particulier de réalisation, les éléments 5, 6 sont 25 venus de matière, le bouchon 1 et les deux éléments 5 et 6 formant une pièce monobloc moulée d'un seul tenant par injection thermoplastique. Le manche 2 comprend quant à lui deux ouvertures 7, 8 (de préférence traversantes) alignées suivant un axe principal du manche 302, c'est-à-dire suivant la grande longueur du manche 2 ; la forme, les dimensions et la disposition des ouvertures 7, 8 sont complémentaires et/ou correspondent à celles des éléments 5, 6 qui sont destinés à coopérer avec les ouvertures 7, 8. Ainsi, dans le cas où les éléments 5, 6 sont de forme cubique, les deux ouvertures 7 et 8 sont de section complémentaire, carrée, comme illustré sur la figure 1. Le manche 2, avec ses deux ouvertures 7, 8, est de préférence formé d'une seule pièce moulée par injection thermoplastique. A titre d'exemple non limitatif, pour un bouchon 1 d'un diamètre de 30 mm, les deux éléments en saillie 5, 6, de forme cubique dans l'exemple proposé ci-dessus, peuvent présenter les dimensions suivantes : largeur (c'est-à-dire côté) 5 mm ; hauteur 4 mm. Le manche 2 peut avoir pour dimensions : longueur 80 mm, largueur 10 mm, épaisseur 2 mm. The following additional arrangements can be provided, alone or in combination: the projecting elements are aligned according to a diameter of the plug; the projecting elements are arranged on either side of the center of the upper wall; the projecting elements are square section; - the projecting elements came from matter; - The openings of the handle are aligned along a main axis of the handle; 30 - the openings of the handle are through. The device of the invention allows to reduce the effort exerted by the user who will now use his hand to open and close the container. By using the handle as a lever, the user will thus benefit from greater ease of opening and / or closing the container. The invention will be better understood in the light of the accompanying drawings which illustrate an embodiment: FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view illustrating the device according to the invention. - Figure 2 is a sectional view of the top view, the device of the invention, the handle being assembled to the plug. There is shown in the drawings a device for facilitating the opening and / or closing of a container. This device comprises a cap 1 and a handle 2 forming a lever. The plug 1 has a cylindrical skirt 3 through which it is intended to be screwed onto the neck of a container (not shown), this skirt 3 ending in an upper wall 4. The upper wall 4 is provided with two elements 5 and 6, preferably aligned along a diameter of the upper wall 4, and projecting from the wall 4 towards the outside of the stopper 1, that is to say opposite the container. According to one embodiment, the height of the two elements 5 and 6 is greater than the thickness of the handle 2. As can be seen in the example illustrated in the drawings, the two elements 5, 6 may be of square section , and come in the form of cubes. According to a particular embodiment, the elements 5, 6 are integral, the plug 1 and the two elements 5 and 6 forming a one-piece piece molded in one piece by thermoplastic injection. The handle 2 comprises two openings 7, 8 (preferably through) aligned along a main axis of the handle 302, that is to say along the length of the handle 2; the shape, the dimensions and the arrangement of the openings 7, 8 are complementary and / or correspond to those of the elements 5, 6 which are intended to cooperate with the openings 7, 8. Thus, in the case where the elements 5, 6 are of cubic shape, the two openings 7 and 8 are of complementary section, square, as shown in Figure 1. The handle 2, with its two openings 7, 8, is preferably formed of a single piece molded by thermoplastic injection. By way of nonlimiting example, for a plug 1 with a diameter of 30 mm, the two projecting elements 5, 6, of cubic shape in the example proposed above, may have the following dimensions: width (c that is, side) 5 mm; height 4 mm. The handle 2 may have for dimensions: length 80 mm, width 10 mm, thickness 2 mm.

Pour ouvrir un récipient, on rapporte le manche 2 en l'emboîtant sur le bouchon 1 dans le sens indiqué par la flèche de la figure 1, les éléments 5, 6 venant s'insérer dans les ouvertures 7, 8 respectives. Une fois cet emboîtement réalisé, on agit sur le manche 2 à la manière d'un levier en exerçant une rotation avec la main dans le sens (généralement antihoraire) d'ouverture du bouchon 1. Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à l'ouverture et à la fermeture de bouteilles, de divers récipients de la vie courante. To open a container, the handle 2 is connected by fitting it on the plug 1 in the direction indicated by the arrow of FIG. 1, the elements 5, 6 being inserted into the respective openings 7, 8. Once this interlocking is achieved, it acts on the handle 2 in the manner of a lever by exerting a rotation with the hand in the direction (generally anticlockwise) opening of the cap 1. The device according to the invention is particularly intended for the opening and closing of bottles, various containers of everyday life.
