Description

CONTAINER WITH ANTI-LOSE AND ANTI-ROTATION FLIP Technical Field j I · The present invention relates to a container with an anti-loss and anti-rotation cap which maintains the state of coupling of a lid body with a container body, even when the lid has been opened, thereby preventing the loss' of the lid ,! and that prevents the lid from turning downward by gravity when the contents are discharged out of the container, thus preventing the lid from touching the user's face even if the latter does not hold the lid with his hand, and providing that the lid is hit by the contents when í some contents leave the container. ! BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In general, a container which is used to keep food, drink and other liquid materials such as drinking water or milk, oil, paints and chemical products, is provided with a container body having a spigot. , and a lid that opens or closes the spout of the body of the container. The cap is detachably coupled to the spout to open or close it through a screw-type method or coupling or a pressure-type coupling method using an elastic hook end. j According to the prior art, as shown in Figures 35 and 36, the lid 130 is provided with ??? annular ring 133 under a lid body 131 in such a manner that the annular ring is not removed from a body 110 of the container, making it possible for a user to observe whether or not a container 200 has been opened. j The body 131 of the lid and the ring 133 are connected to one another by means of a plurality of bridges 137, which are provided in a radial direction of the lid. When the lid has been opened, the bridges 1 | 37 i that connect the body of the lid 131 to the ring 133, are divided, thus leaving evidence that the container has been opened. In such a container, after the body 131 of the lid is detached from the container body 110, opening the container when a user wishes to take some of the contents of the container, the lid body, is coupled to the body of the container. again. The detachment and coupling operations are repeatedly conducted. Meanwhile, when the lid body is completely removed from the ring, the lid can be contaminated or it can be lost. Thus, in order to solve this problem, the ring 133 and the container body can be connected to each other in such a way that part of the ring is not removed from the body of the container. container. However, since the ring 133 is coupled to the body 110 of the container in such a way as to be accidentally rotated, the open cap body 131 is idly rotated together with the ring and is moved to a lower position by gravity , when the contents are downloaded out of the container. In this way, when a user places his mouth towards the spout of the mouth of the container in order to drink the contents, the lid makes contact with his mouth i or i jaw, thus giving the user an unpleasant sensation and being stupid. In addition, when the contents are transferred to another container, the contents flow inside the lid, so that the lid becomes dirty and interferes with the discharge of contents. In addition, as it is repeatedly opened or closed, even a remaining bridge is divided too soon, so that the cover can be lost undesirably.

As shown in Figures 1 through 6, a container 1 with an anti-loss and anti-rotation cap according to one embodiment of the present invention is constructed so that a lid is attached to a body 10 of container in a threaded way. The container body includes a ring stop step 13 provided under a threaded portion 11 of a spout, so as to prevent removal of the cover, a support step 15 supported under the ring stop shoulder 13 to be spaced from it , j and i a support ring seat 14 provided between the ring stop step and the support step. Here, the cover 30 includes a support ring 33, a lid body 31 and a hinge part 35, which are integrally connected with one another. The support ring is placed on the seat 14 of the support ring to prevent the cover from being removed from the body 10 of the container and to be rotated idly or unduly. The lid body opens or closes the container body 10, and has on an internal circumference thereof, a threaded portion 311. The part of hinge engages support ring 33 with lid body 31. The support ring 33 includes a line of conduit 34 in a position adjacent to the hinge part 35, to extend the coupling length of the support ring with the lid body 31. The cutting line 34 is formed within the range of 45 to 65% of the circumference of the support ring 33, around the hinge part 35. The cutting line is formed such that it is not too short; or too long As one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figures 7 and 8, the hinge part 35 comprises a collapsible hinge having a folding line 351 for extending a length between the lid body 31 and the support ring 33, when the lid 30 has been opened.

The collapsible hinge is folded by a folding line 351 when the lid is closed, and is unfolded when the lid is opened, thereby ensuring a length that allows the lid body 31 to be separated from the body of the container. The hinge part 35 may comprise two or more hinges (see Figure 9). ! In the present invention, constructed as described above, the lid body 31 is connected to the support ring 33 via the hinge part 35. The support anilile 33 is tightly fitted onto the container body 10 to prevent the removal and undue rotation of the lid. With this, the loss and undue rotation of the lid can be prevented without the use of a cradle. ! In addition, in order to separate the lid body 31 from the container body, when the lid is opened, a spacing length from the support ring 33 is required. For this purpose, the cutting line 34 or the folding hinge is provided on the support ring 33. The cover 30 of the present invention is manufactured through injection molding, in the state where the hinge part 35 is deployed between the support ring 33 and the body 31 of lid (see Figures 3 and 7). According to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figures 10 to 12, the seat 14 of the support ring of the container body 10 comprises a long neck portion 14L, such that the Support ring is moved up and down. I The lid body 31 includes a step receiving end 313, under the threaded part 311. The internal diameter of the step receiving end is larger than that of the threaded part 311, to allow the receiving end of the step pass over the step 13 of the ring stop of the container body. Here, the long neck portion 14L includes a part 141 of smaller diameter, and a part 143 of larger diameter. The smallest diameter part is provided on the lower portion of the long neck part, the outer diameter of the smaller diameter part is formed to be smaller than the inner diameter of the support ring, to allow rotation free j the support ring 33. The larger diameter portion is provided above the smaller diameter portion 141, to prevent the support ring 33 from rotating as long as no external force is applied. In addition, the outer diameter of the seat 14 of the support ring is adjusted to prevent the support ring 33 from rotating, as long as the external force is not applied. In other words, the support ring 33 is adjusted somewhat tightly on the seat 14 of the support ring, thereby preventing undue rotation of the cover. Since the seat 14 of the support ring comprises the long neck portion 14L as such, the support ring 33 can move vertically in a predetermined interval while being coupled to the lid body 31, when the lid is opened, maintaining this mode the coupled state of the lid body 31 with the support ring 33.

In addition, as long as the external force is not applied, specifically the rotational force to open or close the lid, the rotation of the support ring 33 relative to the seat 14 of the support ring is prevented, thereby preventing rotation of the lid by gravity. That is, the support ring 33 is movable up and down along the seat 14 of the support ring of the container body. In this way, when the lid is opened, the support ring is moved upwards along the lid body. The opening of the lid is performed while the coupling state is maintained by the hinge part 35. In addition, the seat 14 of the support ring provided by the spigot of the body 10 of the container is constructed so that the part 141 of smaller diameter is provided on the lower portion of the support ring seat, to cause the support ring to be loosely adjusted, and the larger diameter portion 143, is provided on the upper portion of the support ring seat to cause the support ring to be tightly adjusted. In this construction, as long as the external force is not applied when the support ring 33 is moved up towards the larger diameter part 143, the cover does not rotate, thus preventing the rotation of the cover by gravity, when the lid is open. In the case where the complete portion of the seat 14 of the support ring is formed to have the same diameter as the larger diameter part 143, the support ring 33 is rotated and moved upwards, while pressure is applied to turn and opening the lid, because the body 10 of the container and the lid 30 are made of a resin material having elasticity. Meanwhile, when the external force is not present, the rotation of the lid is prevented notwithstanding the position. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the lid 30 includes a plurality of bridges 37 that are integrally connected between the body 31 of the lid and the support ring 33, and are divided when the lid has been opened (see Figures 10). at 13). The bridges allow a user to observe whether or not the container has been opened. i According to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figures 13 to 20, the support ring 33 has on an internal circumference thereof, the securing protuberances S to prevent undue rotation of the cover. The securing protuberances S may comprise steps that are formed to allow the support ring 33 to be easily adjusted on the body of the container and prevent withdrawal of the support ring in cooperation with the step 13 of the ring stop. The securing protrusions may comprise SI radial grooves (see Figures 13 through 17), which protrude inwardly in a radial direction and are secured by securing channels 147 formed in a corresponding portion of the container body. The securing protuberances S and the securing channels 147 can be vertically formed as shown in Figures 13 through 17, or they can comprise horizontal securing protuberances S2 and securing channels 147 as shown in Figures 18 and 19. In addition , as shown in Figure 20, the securing protuberances S may comprise screw-like fins S3 that are inclined in one direction to interfere with the cap only when it is rotated in an opening direction of the cap. As such, the securing protuberances can have various shapes. In the case of application of external force, the securing protuberances S allow the support ring 33 or an indication ring 39 to be rotatable with respect to the body 10 of the container. In contrast, when there is no external force, the securing protuberances prevent the support ring or the indication ring from rotating, thereby preventing undue rotation of the top. Especially, the screw-like fins S3 are folded and closed when the lid is rotated in a closing direction, thus making it possible to smoothly rotate the lid. Meanwhile, the screw-like flaps are unfolded and opened when the lid is rotated in a direction away from the body of the container, thereby interfering with the rotation of the lid, thereby preventing undue rotation of the lid. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the non-uniform coupling parts 321 and 322 are provided on the body 31 of the lid and the support ring 33, and are coupled one, with the other in a position adjacent to the lid. of hinge 35, so that the lid body 31 is flexed and secured to the support ring 33, when the lid has been opened (see Figures 13 and 16). I i According to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figures 21 to 28, a wedge Kl is provided on the lid 30 to be placed above the hinge part 35. The wedge Kl passes over the ring support 33 to be supported by the support step 15 when the lid has been opened, thus pressing the lid to prevent the support ring 33 from being unduly rotated. Here, an assurance hole 151 having the The shape of a concentric circle is formed on the upper or lower surface of the support step 15, and the wedge Kl protrudes in the form of a hook which is fitted within the securing hole 151. The securing hole 151 can be formed in the upper and lower surface of the support step. The wedge Kl is inclined upwards (see Figure 24) or downwards (see Figures 25 to 27) to correspond to the securing hole 151. j In this case, the support ring 33 is loosely coupled to the body 10 of the container, so that the idle rotation of the lid is possible. Since the wedge Kl is supported by the abutment step 13 of the ring, the wedge is pulled to one side and tension is generated to prevent the rotation of the cap, thereby supporting the cap 30 preventing undue rotation of the cap. top. As such, when the securing hole 151 is formed in the support step 15 and the wedge Kl is formed in the shape of a hook, a projection of the wedge is fitted within the securing hole 151, so that the cap is more firmly supported. According to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figures 29 to 31, a wedge K2 is provided on the hinge part 35, and is supported by the stop stop 13 of the ring when the cover It has been opened to prevent the lid from turning. Here, the hinge part 35 is formed to be longer than a general length. A portion of the hinge part 35 is cut and projected, thereby providing wedge K2. In the construction having the wedge K2, the outer diameter of the entire portion of the seat 14 of the support ring is set to have the same diameter as the smaller diameter part 141 which allows the support ring 33 to be turned loose. The wedge K2 is formed to be pushed into the support ring 33. Thus, when the lid body 31 is bent backward, the wedge is caught between the body 10 of the container and the support ring 33, so that the lid is maintained on the body of the container. The wedge K2 may comprise a plurality of wedges. | According to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figures 32 to 34, the cover 30 further includes an indication ring 39 under the support ring 33. The indication ring is integrally coupled to the support ring via the bridges 37 that are divided when the lid is opened. In addition, the indication ring 39 may have on the internal circumference thereof a bead of protection to prevent undue rotation of the top. ! As such, the present invention provides a container with an anti-loss and anti-rotation cap that maintains the coupling status of a lid body with a container body, even when the lid has been opened, thereby preventing , the loss of the lid, and preventing the gravity from turning the lid down when the contents are discharged out of the container, thus preventing the lid from touching the face of a user when the user drinks directly from the container, including if he does not hold the lid with his hand, and preventing the lid from being hit by the contents when some contents leave the container, thus preventing contamination of the lid and providing this convenience.

Possibility of Industrial Application As described above, the present invention provides a container with an anti-loss and anti-rotation cap that maintains the coupling of a lid body with a container body, even when the lid has been opened, thus preventing the lid from being lost, and preventing gravity from rotating the lid downwards when the contents are discharged from the container, thereby preventing the lid from making contact with the face of a user even when the user does not hold the lid with his hand, when he places his mouth on the container, for example, a bottle of beverage, and drinks directly from the container, and preventing the lid from being I hit by the contents when the contents leave the container, thus preventing contamination of the lid and thus providing convenience.
