Description

The invention relates to devices located inside the neck of a glass bottle, and more specifically to the closures that regulate the process of pouring liquid.

The following structures are known for controlling the process of pouring liquid from a bottle.

UK patent No. 2274277 "Bottle cap", publication July 20, 94, IPC B 65 D 39/06. The structure comprises a bottle neck having an inner constriction into which the ball is placed. The neck of the bottle has a flange to which the cap is attached.

According to US patent No. 5381930 "Device for dispensing metered volumes of liquid", priority 07.12.93, publication 01/17/95, IPC B 65 D 47/20, the design contains a lid that interacts with the neck and the receiver of the excess volume of liquid.

Japan Patent No. 6045372 “Cap of the vessel for dosed dispensing of liquid contents” with priority 12.11.86, publication 10.10.95, IPC B 65 D 47/20, contains a cup-shaped closure inserted in the opening of the neck of the vessel; a hole formed in the bottom of the shutter, and a valve with upper and lower heads.

PCT Application 94/19253 "Drain Stopper for a Bottle", publication 01.09.94, IPC B 65 D 39/06, has a tubular channel in which a ball is installed that moves between two valve seats.

Application of France No. 2716170 "Dosing stopper for bottles", priority 20.12.94, publication 18.08.95, IPC B 65 D 47/28. The dispensing plug contains a fixed core in the form of a cylindrical cup inserted with force into the neck of the bottle, on which there is a persistent annular flange to limit the penetration of the cap into the neck. On the cap, at the base, there are openings for the release of the product. The neck covers a removable cover.

The closest is the design of US patent No. 6230937, publication 05/15/01, IPC B 65 D 47/02. The dispenser plug contains a dispenser in the form of a ball and a lid moving when the bottle is tilted, as well as an element located in the upper part of the plug, in which slit-like openings are made for discharging liquid from the bottle. The neck covers a removable cover.

Available analogues do not exhaust all possible designs of closures for the release of liquids from glass bottles.

The technical result achieved using the proposed design of the invention consists in the convenience of pouring liquid from a bottle and simplifying dosage. In addition, the proposed design does not allow filling the bottle again without destroying the closure, which prevents consumer fraud by re-filling the bottle with another drink.

The shutter for the bottle contains a ferrule, inside of which an insert is installed, and a cap, the ferrule being made in the form of a cylindrical body with a bottom containing an opening. At least one annular horizontal protrusion is made on the outer cylindrical surface of the housing. The insert is made in the form of a sleeve and contains a liquid stream divider in the form of a central element placed along the axis of the sleeve and attached to the inner walls of the sleeve by jumpers to form channels between the wall of the sleeve, the divider and jumpers.

The shutter is installed in the neck of the bottle after filling it with a drink. After removing the cap, when the bottle is tilted, the fluid flows in the insert through the channels between the wall of the sleeve, the central element and the jumpers and is poured out of the neck by an even, small stream, which allows accurate dosage.

It is practically impossible to fill foreign fluid into the bottle through the closure, since the gap between the central element and the walls of the insert is small and an air lock occurs when trying to fill. It is also impossible to remove the closure from the bottle and reinsert it, as it breaks when removed.

The lid contains a flush for mounting the lid in the opening of said insert.

In the particular case, the cage is made of plastic material to provide the ability to assemble the shutter before installation.

The cylindrical casing of the cage can be made with a collar in the upper part to stop the housing on the edge of the neck of the bottle.

The insert can be made of non-plastic material to make it difficult to remove the shutter from the bottle after using the liquid and to prevent the counterfeit from re-filling.

The divider can be made in the form of a truncated cone or in the form of a plate.

The jumpers can be made L-shaped, with the upper part of the jumper attached to the upper part of the sleeve, and the horizontal part of the jumper to the said divider.

The jumpers can also be made inclined, with the upper part of the jumper attached to the upper part of the sleeve, and the lower part of the jumper to the said divider.

The invention is illustrated by drawings.

Figure 1 shows a section of the shutter with a conical central element, and figure 2 is a section along the secant plane AA.

Figure 3 shows a section of the insert with a conical central element, and figure 4 is a bottom view of the same insert.

Figure 5 shows a section of the insert with the plate - the Central element, and figure 6 is a bottom view of the same insert.

7 shows a shutter with a safety cap.

The shutter comprises a ferrule 1 (Fig. 1), inside of which an insert 2 is mounted, and a cover 3 mounted with a protrusion 10 in the hole of the insert 2. The ferrule 1 is made in the form of a cylindrical body with a bottom 4 containing an opening 5. On the outer cylindrical surface of the body the cages 1 are made of annular horizontal protrusions 6. The insert 2 is made in the form of a sleeve and contains a splitter 7 of the liquid jet in the form of a central element placed along the axis of the sleeve and attached to the inner walls of the sleeve by jumpers 8. Figure 1-4 shows a shutter with ekatelem 7 frustoconical wall 12. Between the sleeve 2, 7 and divider webs 8 channels 9 are formed.

The housing of the holder 1 contains a collar 11 in the upper part for support on the edge of the neck of the bottle 18.

The jumpers 8 (Figs. 3, 4) are L-shaped, with the upper part 14 of the jumper 8 attached to the upper part of the sleeve, and the horizontal part 15 of the jumper 8 to the said divider 7.

The divider 7 (Fig.5 and 6) can be made in the form of a round plate 13, in this case, the jumpers 8 are made inclined.

A bottle closure is typically used with a safety cap 16 (FIG. 7). The safety cap 16 covers the cover 3. The rupture ring 17 on the safety cap 16 allows you to separate the upper part of the safety cap 16 together with the cover 3.

The shutter for the bottle works as follows. If a safety cap 16 is used (FIG. 7), the opening of the bottle is as follows. The upper part of the safety cap 16 is rotated, the rupture ring 17 is destroyed and the upper part of the safety cap 16 with the cover 3 is separated.

The bottle tilts and the liquid begins to pour out through the channels 9 between the wall of the sleeve 2, the divider 7 and the jumpers 8 through the neck of the bottle with a calm slow stream.

If the safety cap 16 is not used, then the cover 3 opens. Then, the liquid is poured out as described.

It is practically impossible to pour foreign liquid into a bottle with a shutter without destroying the shutter. The liquid does not enter the bottle, since the openings 8 are small and the intake of liquid is practically impossible, since the air plug arising in the closure interferes.
