Description
本発明は概して流れ制御要素に関する。より詳細には、本発明は、耐漏洩カップ組立体のための流れ制御要素に関する。
本発明の目的は、流れ制御要素側に配置された弁を有する流れ制御要素を提供することである。
図面、特に図2及び図3を参照すると、全体を参照符号10で示す本発明によるカップ組立体を示している。カップ組立体10は、カップ12、キャップ14及び流れ制御要素20を含む。キャップ14は、飲み口16及び好ましくは通気孔18を有する。
通気操作圧は、通気孔を介してカップに入る空気が最初に検出された時の圧力である。テストに先立ち、弁を手で強く握ることにより、最初に全ての弁のスリットを開いて、癒着作用を取り除いた。製造後に、癒着作用によりスリットが再度シールされる可能性があるからである。
このデータは、弁B(図5)及び弁C(図10)が、選択した最小流量を達成するのに最小の吸い込み力しか必要としないことを示している。更にこのデータは、弁B及びCがサンプル間で必要とする吸い込み力に差がないことを示している。これにより、従来可能であったよりも、より受け入れられ易い製品を提供することができる。
