Abstract

1295890 Easy-opening can ends ALUMINUM CO OF AMERICA 30 Dec 1970 [5 Jan 1970] 61823/70 Heading B8D A pull tab 14 secured to a tear-out section 12 of a can end 10 by a rivet 16 is provided with a line of weakness or slit 26 extending around one side of the rivet adjacent the handle portion 22 of the tab to form a hinge line XX passing through the centre of the rivet about which the handle portion may be bent to a vertical position. The handle portion, when raised, may be manipulated in the vertical plane containing the raised handle portion as a rigid lever to initiate scoreline rupture, Figs. 3-5 (not shown). While the major axis of the tab extends perpendicularly to the hinge line or at an angle thereto in the range of 30-70 degrees. In another embodiment, Figs. 6-10 (not shown), the invention is applied to a full-opening can end type. The hinge line, formed by a C-shaped slit 56, extends at 35 degrees to the major axis of the tab handle portion and generally perpendicularly to the scoreline adjacent the attachment end of the tab to permit rupture of the scoreline adjacent that end when the handle portion is raised to lie in a vertical plane and manipulated in said plane. The tab and can end may be of aluminium and the former provided with strengthening edge beads.
