JP 11-189253 A

  In the above-described conventional technology, the tightening cylinder plays a part in the function of preventing unauthorized opening, and also prevents the assembled cylinder from being enlarged and deformed in an unreasonable manner, and maintains a strong assembled fixed state to the mouth of the container. The function to perform is demonstrated. In the case of separate collection, first, the fastening cylinder is detached from the assembled cylinder upward against strong pressure. If the one-end tightening cylinder is removed in this way, the diameter of the assembled cylinder can be expanded and the cap main body can be easily removed from the mouth.

However, since the strong pressure due to the assembled cylinder changes due to minute variations in the molding of the member of the dispensing cap, the tightening cylinder is in a state where the strong pressure is applied from the assembled cylinder whose diameter has been increased and deformed with the mounting to the mouth cylinder. The removal (disengagement) operation is not always easy depending on the individual molded product, and has a problem that a considerable force may be required.
On the other hand, if the member is designed so as to reduce the average value in consideration of such a variation in strong pressure, the strength of assembly of the assembly cylinder to the mouth of the container is not sufficient.

Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve the problems in the prior art described above, and the removal operation at the time of separate collection without impairing the strength of assembly of the container into the mouth tube and the function of preventing unauthorized opening. It is an object of the present invention to provide a synthetic resin pouring cap that is easy to separate and collect while being safe, having good handling.

Among the means for solving the above technical problems, the main configuration of the present invention is:
In the synthetic resin pouring cap,
A cap body that is tightly fitted with a cylinder that fits over and locks over the mouth tube of the container, and a cap that opens and closes the spout by removably screwing into the cap body. have a cylindrical outer cap member,
The outer cap body has a threaded cylinder that is screwed into the cap body, and is integrally connected to the lower end of the threaded cylinder via a number of broken pieces, and is attached to a cylinder with a cap body that is externally fitted to the mouth tube. further have a fitted tightening cylinder,
A pair of cutout portions are formed at positions symmetrical to the central axis of the tightening cylinder, upward from the lower end of the cylinder wall of the tightening cylinder ,
Further, an anti-slip relating to the fingertip for disengaging operation from the assembled tube of the tightening tube is disposed at an intermediate angular position between the pair of cutout portions on the outer peripheral surface of the tightening tube,
A configuration in which the fastening cylinder can be detached from the assembled cylinder by deformation of the pair of remaining wall portions remaining on top of the pair of notch portions by pushing up to the slip stopper by a fingertip or pulling up operation.
It is said.

  In the pouring cap having the above structure, the outer cap body is screwed and assembled to the cap body, and it is pushed into the cap body by forcefully pushing the assembled cylinder of the cap body over the mouth of the jar container, and is locked out. Fit and fix. In this assembled and fixed state, the assembled cylinder expands and deforms, and a strong pressure acts on the clamping cylinder of the outer cap body to be mounted. In other words, it is possible to sufficiently maintain the assembling strength to the mouth of the cap body by suppressing the illusion of the diameter expansion of the assembling cylinder by the tightening cylinder.

  In addition, as described above, since the strong pressure from the assembled cylinder whose diameter has been deformed is acting on the tightening cylinder, the force required to break the broken piece is sufficient between the clamping cylinder and the assembled cylinder. Therefore, when the first screwing operation of the screwed tube of the outer cap body with respect to the cap body is performed, the tightening tube is moved against the screwing rotation displacement of the screwed tube. Since it does not rotate together, the broken piece breaks, and therefore it can be accurately determined whether or not the broken piece is already opened depending on whether the broken piece is broken or not, and the function of preventing unauthorized opening is exhibited. become.

  The clamping cylinder is separated from the threaded cylinder after the fracture piece is broken, but is still in a state where the assembled cylinder is exteriorized, and the expansion expansion deformation of the assembled cylinder is suppressed to the mouth of the cap body. The strength of the assembly can be maintained.

In order to separate and collect the content liquid after it has been used up, it is necessary to first remove the clamping cylinder upward from the assembled cylinder against strong pressure.
Therefore, as in the above configuration of the present invention, by forming a notch in the tightening cylinder, the vicinity of the lower end of the tightening cylinder is pushed up or pulled up with a fingertip, so that it can be easily detached from the assembled cylinder. Can be removed.

As described above, when the vicinity of the lower end of the tightening cylinder is pushed up (or pulled up) with a fingertip, a bending moment acts on the peripheral wall portion (hereinafter referred to as the remaining wall portion) remaining at the upper portion of the notch notch portion. As a result of this bending moment, a part of the clamping cylinder undergoes a diameter expansion deformation. Then, starting from this expanded diameter deformed portion, the fastening tube can be disengaged from the assembled tube over the entire circumference, and the fastening tube can be easily removed with a small force.
Even if the notched portion is formed as in this configuration, the remaining wall portion can sufficiently suppress the diameter expansion deformation of the assembled cylinder, and the strength of assembling to the mouth tube portion of the jar container and unauthorized opening Separation and collection can be easily realized without impairing the prevention function.

  Then, by forming a pair of cutouts at positions symmetrical to the central axis of the clamping cylinder, the vicinity of the lower end of the clamping cylinder is cantilevered in the vicinity of the intermediate angular position of the pair of cutouts. By pushing up or pulling up with a fingertip, it can be easily detached from the assembled cylinder and removed.
In addition, it is possible to easily disengage from the assembly cylinder by pushing up or pulling up the vicinity of the lower end of the tightening cylinder so that the vicinity of a pair of intermediate angular positions located symmetrically with the central axis is picked from both sides with the fingertips. It can also be removed.

  As described above, when the vicinity of the lower end portion of the fastening cylinder is pushed up (or pulled up) with the fingertip in the vicinity of the intermediate angular position of the pair of cutout portions, the pair remaining on the upper portion of the cutout portions arranged symmetrically about the central axis A bending moment acts on the remaining wall portion as a fulcrum, and a part of the fastening cylinder undergoes diameter expansion deformation along with this bending moment. Then, starting from the expanded diameter deformed portion, the fastening cylinder can be disengaged from the assembled cylinder over the entire circumference, and the clamping cylinder can be more easily removed with a small force.

  Then, as described above, in the operation of detaching the fastening cylinder using the pair of cutout portions, by installing a non-slip at an intermediate angular position of the pair of cutout portions that become the action point of the fingertip, The removal operation can be achieved more easily.

Another configuration of the present invention is such that, in the main configuration, the shape of the cutout portion is a semicircular shape.

  The semicircular shape is one of the specific shapes of the cut-out notches, and can be easily formed by injection molding. Moreover, the stress accompanying the operation of disengaging the tightening cylinder can be concentrated on the remaining wall portion located above the semicircular apex, and the disengagement can be easily achieved. Further, as will be described later, a function as a non-slip can be exhibited.

  Still another configuration of the present invention is such that, in the main configuration described above, the shape of the cutout portion is a slit shape.

  The slit shape is also one of the specific shapes of the cutout portion, and the stress associated with the fastening tube disengagement operation can be more effectively concentrated on the remaining wall portion.

  Still another configuration of the present invention is that a protrusion is provided in the circumferential direction of the fastening cylinder to prevent slipping.

  The said structure concerns the typical shape of a non-slip, and can also make it a knurl shape by making two or more protrusion pieces parallel.

Since the present invention has the above-described configuration, the following effects can be obtained.
In what has the main composition,
When a predetermined position in the vicinity of the lower end of the clamping cylinder is pushed up (or pulled up) with a fingertip, a bending moment acts with the remaining wall of the notch notched as a fulcrum, and part of the clamping cylinder is accompanied by this bending moment. Is expanded and deformed. Then, starting from this expanded diameter deformed portion, the fastening tube can be disengaged from the assembled tube over the entire circumference, and the fastening tube can be easily removed with a small force.

Further, by forming at least a pair of cutout portions at positions symmetrical to the central axis of the fastening cylinder, the vicinity of the lower end portion of the fastening cylinder is pushed up or pulled up with a fingertip in the vicinity of the intermediate angular position of the pair of cutout notches. Then, a bending moment acting on a pair of remaining wall portions located symmetrically about the central axis acts, and part of the tightening cylinder expands and deforms with this bending moment, and this expanded and deformed portion is the starting point. The fastening tube can be disengaged from the assembled tube over the entire circumference, the tightening tube can be easily removed with a small force, the strength of the assembly to the mouth tube part of the container In addition, it is possible to more easily realize separate collection without impairing the unauthorized opening prevention function.

In addition, by providing a slip stopper at an intermediate angular position between the pair of cutout portions of the tightening tube, the tightening tube can be placed at a position that becomes the point of action of the fingertip in the operation of detaching the tightening tube using the pair of cutout portions. With the anti-slip provided, it is possible to more easily achieve the disengagement operation of the tightening cylinder.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described along examples with reference to the drawings.
1 to 3 illustrate an embodiment of the pouring cap of the present invention. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of a cap body 2 and an outer cap body 21 which are two members constituting the pouring cap 1. is there. 2 is a longitudinal half view of the pouring cap 1 attached to the basket container 31 and FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the outer cap body 21 from obliquely below.

The pouring cap 1 is composed of a cap body 2 made of polypropylene resin or low density polyethylene resin, and an outer cap body 21.
The cap body 2 is provided with a seal cylinder piece 7 tightly fitted into the opening of the mouth tube 32 through the top wall 5 inside the assembled tube 3 that is undercut-coupled to the mouth tube 32 of the container 31 and is fitted outside. A threaded cylinder 6 is formed in which a thread is engraved on the outer peripheral surface in a form in which the seal cylinder piece 7 is extended upward, and is formed in an inner collar shape from the upper edge of the threaded cylinder 6. A pouring tube 9 whose upper end is enlarged in a trumpet shape is provided continuously through an inner flange piece 8.
In addition, a closed loop-shaped thin breaking groove 13 is formed in a sealing wall 12 integrally provided in a form that closes the lower end opening of the pouring tube 9 in the thread tube 6, and a pull ring 15 is provided in a standing manner. It has the plug part 11 made.
Further, a plurality of locking vertical stripes 16 are provided at equal intervals on the outer periphery of the assembled cylinder 3, and under the locking peripheral stripes 33 provided on the outer peripheral surface of the mouth tube 32 at the lower end portion of the inner peripheral surface. A locking projection piece 4 to be cut and joined is provided around.

The outer cap body 21 has a top cylindrical shape having a threaded tube 22 that is detachably screwed onto the threaded tube 6 of the cap body 2, and the cap body 2 is attached to the lower surface of the top wall 21t. A plug cylinder piece 23 that is tightly fitted into the outlet cylinder 9 and hermetically seals the extraction cylinder 9 is provided in a hanging manner.
Further, a fastening cylinder 25 that is externally fitted to the assembled cylinder 3 is connected to the lower end edge of the threaded cylinder 22 via a plurality of thin broken pieces 24 that are easily broken.

A pair of semicircular cutouts 26 are formed in the clamping cylinder 25 at positions symmetrical with respect to the central axis, and a pair of slip stoppers 27 are disposed on the outer peripheral surface at positions 90 ° from the cutouts 26. Three ridge pieces 27a which are forms are formed in the circumferential direction.
In addition, a large number of locking vertical grooves 28 are formed on the inner peripheral surface, and are fitted to the locking vertical stripes 16 of the assembled cylinder 3 so that the relative rotation between the assembled cylinder 3 and the fastening cylinder 25 can be improved. Demonstrate the function of locking movement.

The fastening cylinder 25 is set to have a diameter that loosely fits around the assembled cylinder 3 of the cap body 2, and the outer cap body is integrally connected to the screwing cylinder 22 via the fracture piece 24. 21 is screwed and assembled to the cap body 2. That is, when the screwing tube 22 of the outer cap body 21 is screwed into the threaded tube 6 of the cap body 2 and the fastening tube 25 is externally attached to the assembled tube 3, the assembled tube 3 and the tightening tube are combined. A large frictional resistance force that breaks the broken piece 24 is not generated between the outer cap body 21 and the outer cap body 21 and the cap body 2 can be safely assembled without difficulty.
The pouring cap 1 in which the cap body 2 and the outer cap body 21 are screwed and assembled as described above is assembled to the mouth tube 32 of the bag container 31 in a stopper shape.

  When the dispensing cap 1 is plugged into the mouthpiece 32 of the basket container 31, it is poured out into the basket container 31 by the locking of the locking projection 4 of the cap body 2 and the locking peripheral strip 33 of the basket container 31. In this case, the cap 1 is undercut coupled. At this time, the radial dimension relationship between the locking peripheral strip 33 of the basket container 31 and the assembled cylinder 3 of the extraction cap 1, or the mouth cylinder 32 of the basket container 31 and the extraction cap 1. Due to the diametrical relationship with the locking projection piece 4, the assembled cylinder 3 is deformed to expand and press against the fastening cylinder 25, and a strong pressure acts. In other words, the tightening cylinder 25 can suppress the unusual diameter expansion deformation of the assembled cylinder 3, and can sufficiently maintain the assembled strength to the mouth portion 32 of the cap body 1.

When the content liquid is first poured out, the screwing cylinder 22 is turned to be screwed and removed while breaking the broken piece 24, and then the pulling ring 15 is pulled so that the sealing wall is cut by the breaking groove 13. A part of 12 is cut out and the content liquid is poured out from the dispensing tube 9 for use.
At this time, the fastening cylinder 25 is separated from the screwed cylinder 22 after the fractured piece 24 is broken, but is still in a state where the assembled cylinder 3 is exteriorized, and the diameter expansion deformation of the assembled cylinder 3 is suppressed. Thus, the assembly strength of the cap body to the mouth can be maintained.

At the time of separation and collection after the content liquid is used up, it is necessary to first detach the fastening cylinder 25 from the assembled cylinder 3 against strong pressure.
Here, FIG. 4 (a) is an explanatory view showing an example of a method for disengaging the tightening tube 25 at the time of sorting in the dispensing cap 1 of the present embodiment. When the part of the fastening cylinder 25 is pushed up against the protruding strip 27a that exhibits the above, the de-mating can be progressed from the pushed-up portion as a starting point and can be easily removed.

FIG. 4B is an explanatory view according to a deformation mode of the tightening cylinder 25 at the time of disengagement, but as shown by the white arrow, the intermediate angular position of the pair of cutout portions 26 is pushed up (or pulled up). As shown in the figure, a bending moment is applied with the pair of remaining wall portions 26a remaining at the upper portion of the cutout portion 26 as a fulcrum, and the clamping cylinder 25 is moved along the two-dot chain line in the figure along with this bending moment. It is deformed as shown in the figure, a part of the diameter is deformed, the disengagement from the assembled cylinder 3 of the tightening cylinder 25 can be advanced over the entire circumference starting from the expanded part. The clamping cylinder 25 can be easily removed by the action of a relatively small force.
4 (a) and 4 (b) show an example of a detachment operation in which one anti-slip 27 is pushed up by a fingertip, but a pair of anti-slip 27 located symmetrically about the central axis is shown on the fingertip. By pushing up or pulling up the vicinity of the lower end of the fastening tube 25 so as to be picked from both sides, a bending moment with the pair of remaining wall portions 26a as a fulcrum acts similarly, and the fastening tube 25 is easily assembled. 3 can be detached.

  If the tightening tube 25 is removed as described above, the diameter of the assembled tube 3 can be increased and the cap body 2 can be easily removed from the mouth portion 32.

  Next, FIG. 5 shows another example of the outer cap body 21. In the outer cap body 21 of FIG. 3, the notch 26 is formed into a slit instead of a semicircular one. It is possible to easily achieve the detachment operation by concentrating the stress accompanying the detachment operation on the pair of remaining wall portions 26a located above the portion 26.

As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention and its effect were demonstrated along the Example, embodiment of this application is not limited to this Example .

As described above, the pouring cap of the present invention facilitates separation and collection without impairing the strength of assembling the container of the container and the unauthorized opening prevention function, and is widely used in combination with the container. Expansion is expected.
