Abstract

A container lid is provided with a lid flange 2 downwardly merging into a releasing flange 13 which from a position in which an inwardly extending snap rib 9 on said flange 2 engages a sealing edge on a container flange 9 or a container mouth bead is upwardly bendable to a position in which said snap rib 8 goes clear of said container flange or abuts it at slight pressure. Releasing flange 13 acts as a bistable snap catch and is retained in its extreme positions by means of its inherent annular tension. Releasing flange 13 causes even a large container lid seated firmly prestressed on a container to be readily removed, no tools being necessary.

Description

The present invention relates to a container and a lid therefor, said lid being of a resiliently deformable plastics material and having a downwardly extending lid flange provided with an inner annular snap rib engaging a peripheral flange of the container.
Lids of the type used as tight-sealing closures for containers, e.g. paint buckets, are often difficult to remove because effective sealing implies powerful prestressing of the container lid material.
It is an object of the invention to facilitate removal of tight container lids from containers.
The invention provides a container having a mouth and a lid for closing the container mouth and engageable along a sealing portion with the edge of said mouth, said lid being of a resiliently deformable plastics material and having a downwardly extending lid flange provided with an inner annular snap rib engageable with a peripheral flange on the container, said lid flange adjacent to said snap rib merging into an annular releasing flange which constitutes a bistable snap catch and is bendable from a downwardly extending position in which in tensioned condition the snap rib abuts the peripheral container flange to an upwardly extending portion in which the snap rib is clear of the peripheral container flange or abuts the latter at a reduced tension, characterized in that a) said lid flange is located outside the container mouth at a radial distance therefrom and merges with a sharp bend into a conical rim portion . of the lid, b) the vertical distance between the edge of the container mouth and the lower edge of the peripheral container flange is greater than the 82644 - 3 vertical distance between the sealing portion of the lid and the upper surface of the snap rib, when the releasing flange is in its downwardly extending position with the lid removed from the container, and c) an annular frusto-conical recess is provided in the inner wall of the lid flange, said recess widening downwards to a thin resilient portion of said lid flange directly above said snap rib.
The lid flange and the releasing flange constitute the links of a bistable toggle joint, the portion between said flanges constituting a hinge connection, and the annular tension of the releasing flange acting as a spring which in the one position of the flange assists in keeping said snap rib and said container flange firmly interengaged, and in the other position keeping the snap rib clear of or only in light contact with said container flange. By moving his fingers along the lower side of the releasing flange, a person handling the container may readily bring the releasing flange past a bent position, in which the annular tension is at maximum, thus enabling the releasing flange to snap up into its releasing position. The lid can now be easily removed, and when the container is in use the lid may be placed loosely thereon for temporary protection of its contents.
In the sealing position, the lower surface of the lid tightly abuts the mouth edge of the container along a sealing portion, usually in the form of a narrow sealing line, the lid flange lying at a radial distance outside the container mouth and merging with a sharp bend merging into a conical rim portion of the lid without any possibility of - 4 transferring a bending momentum. The lid in this position is axially tensioned owing to the fact that the vertical distance between the edge of the container mouth and the lower edge of the container flange is greater than the vertical distance between the sealing portion of the lid and the upper surface of the snap rib on said lid flange of the removed lid. Placing of the lid on the container generates a powerful axial tensile force in the lid flange. By selecting suitable dimensions, the tension can be made higher the higher the required pressure is per unit of area at the sealing portion between the container mouth and the lid. Since the lid flange is only axially tensioned and thus only subjected to tensile force, the joint portion between the lid flange and the releasing flange may be relatively thin-walled, and thus bending the releasing, flange from its one position to the other practically only requires the maximum peripheral tension of the releasing flange to be overcome.
It is of minor importance whether the annular tension is greatest in the sealing position or in the releasing position of the releasing flange, and for this reason the releasing flange may extend substantially vertically downwards along the container wall so as to avoid problems when a number of containers are positioned next to each other.
An embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a radial sectional view of a lid of the embodiment, Fig. 2 is a plan view of said lid, and Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the lid on its container.
The container lid shown in Figs. 1 to 3 has a plane surface 1 and a substantially axial - and when in use - downwardly extending flange 2 which via a conical rim portion 3 merges into a radial flange portion 4 connected to the plane lid surface 1 through a substantially axial inner flange portion 5. The lower surface of tbe radial flange portion 4 is provided with an axial guide rib 6 and a sharp sealing rib 7 abutting the edge of the container mouth along a narrow sealing line. When the container is tightly sealed a snap rib 8 on the inner side of the lid flange 2 abuts a downwardly extending locking edge at the extremity of a container flange 9 extending from the container wall 10. Fig. 3 shows - in dotted lines - the position of the conical rim portion 3 when the lid is loosely seated on the container. In this position the vertical distance from the container mouth edge to the downwardly extending locking edge of the container flange 9 is greater than the vertical distance from the sealing rib 7 to the top of the snap rib 8. When the lid is tightly seated on the container the conical rim portion 3 is pressed down - shown in full lines - by means of axial pressure, the snap rib 8 thus engaging the locking edge of the container flange 9. The lid flange 2 is thus subjected to axial tensile force causing the sealing rib 7 to be powerfully pressed against the container mouth.
Immediately above the snap rib 8 lid flange 2 is provided with an annular recess 11 and merges via a thin-walled portion 12 into a releasing flange 13 which in its sealing position extends downwardly as shown.
When a container user wishes to remove the lid, - 6 he moves his fingers along the lower surface of the sealing flange 13, exerting an outwardly ascending pressure thus increasing the annular tension to maximum so that the flange suddenly snaps upwards into its upper position shown in dotted lines, in which the snap rib 8 is clear of the container flange 9. The releasing flange 13 thus acts as a bistable toggle joint along the thin-walled portion 12 hingedly connected to lid flange 2 and retained in its extreme positions by means of the annular tension of the flange. If the releasing flange 13 is so shaped that in sealing position it extends further out from the container wall in radial direction, the increased annular tension will cause a still firmer interengagement of the snap rib 8 and the container flange 9.
It is not absolutely necessary to let the sealing rib of the embodiment shown in Fig. 3 go completely clear of the container flange 9 during removal of or replacing the lid on the container.
The container lid with its bistable snap catch releasing flange may be differently shaped from the embodiment shown in the drawing. In particular the periphery of the lid may be regularly polygonal with rounded corners, so as to be suited for corresponding polygonal containers, such as containers for the storage of food, lunch boxes, and food buckets.
