Lids for sealing containers are also known, which include a body with side walls.

Auxiliary accessories are fixed in them as part of the cover or container with additional elements for removing accessories or elements for connecting accessories with the cover (5 5 443 174, publication date 08.22.1995, О5 5 992 667, publication date 11.30.1999).

Lids for sealing containers are also known, which include a body with side walls and additional surfaces in the lid or container, in which depressions are made that correspond to the shape or dimensions of the accessory. At the same time, the accessory can be fixed on top with a blister or other similar packaging (СМ2592558У, publication date 12/17/2003, 005 З 679 093, publication date 07/25/1972, 0О5 4 300 700, publication date 11/17/1981, 05 5 251 758, publication date 10/12/1993, 05 6 003 710, publication date 12/21/1999, 05 6 604 646 B2, publication date 08/12/2003).

The disadvantage of the known lids is the relative difficulty of removing the auxiliary equipment, due to the need to separate it from the body of the lid or container, the difficulty in manufacturing and packing such containers and auxiliary equipment, and the limitation in the choice of auxiliary equipment for use in such lids. Also known is a lid for sealing a container, which includes a body with side walls of an annular shape and a bottom surface that has a cavity along the edges of an annular shape for connection with the container. Holding of auxiliary equipment is carried out between the lower surface of the case, which protects the contents of the container, and the removable upper surface. Fixation of auxiliary equipment is ensured by means of hard protrusions located on

ZB of the ring-shaped perimeter from its inner side (05 7 823 743 B2, date of publication 02.11.2010).

The disadvantage of the described solution is the relatively low reliability of holding the auxiliary equipment in the cap for capping the container, due to the fixation of the auxiliary equipment between the lower and upper removable surfaces.

The prototype is a cap for sealing a container containing a body with side walls. From the inner surface of the case, in the upper part, there are two protrusions, located precisely in such a way as to contact the edges of the auxiliary equipment for its fixation. At the same time, the auxiliary equipment is held from below by a removable protective surface fixed on the edges of the container (05 5 705 212, publication date 01.06.1998).

The disadvantage of the prototype is the possibility of auxiliary accessories falling out when the cover is removed from the container due to the described method of fixing it, as well as the location of the protrusions specifically for fixing accessories of a specific shape and size, which additionally limits the choice of accessories for use with such a cover.

The basis of the useful model is the task of increasing the reliability of maintenance of the auxiliary

BO accessories in the lid for clogging the container and making it possible for them to fall out accidentally, for example, when uncorking the container, while simultaneously simplifying the removal of auxiliary accessories from the lid, as well as maintaining the manufacturability of the lid by changing the location and design of the means for holding the auxiliary accessories in a certain position.

The task is solved by the fact that the cap for sealing the container, which contains a body with side walls, according to the useful model, is additionally equipped with a means of holding auxiliary accessories in the form of elastic petal-like elements made in the form of an inclined quadrangle, one of the sides of which is connected to the inner surface of the side walls

At the same time, the shape of the inclined quadrilateral can be a trapezoidal shape, fixed by a larger base to the inner surface of the side wall.

At the same time, the side of the petal-shaped elements connected to the inner surface of the side wall and the side opposite to it can be made arc-shaped.

At the same time, the elastic petal-shaped element can have a rounding of at least one of the corners, which is adjacent to the side opposite to the side connected to the inner surface of the side wall.

At the same time, the case with side walls has a cylindrical shape in a horizontal section.

At the same time, the body can be made of plastic.

At the same time, the side walls of the case can be formed by two coaxial surfaces of rotation connected in series.

At the same time, elastic petal-like elements can be fixed on the inner surface of the side wall at the junction of the surfaces of rotation.

The following cause-and-effect relationship exists between the set of essential features and the technical result achieved when using a useful model.

The implementation of the means of holding the auxiliary equipment in the form of elastic petal-like elements with a shape in the form of an inclined quadrangle, one of the sides of which is connected to the inner surface of the side wall, allows to ensure increased reliability of holding the auxiliary equipment in the lid to clog the container and prevent it from accidentally falling out. Hook, the presence of a means of holding the accessory in the form of elastic elements, which are connected to the inner surface of the side wall, allows you to obtain a plane inside the cover along the contour of its inner surface to provide a support surface for holding the accessory of any shape and size that enters the inner cavity lids At the same time, making the elastic elements petal-like allows for the removal of auxiliary equipment from the inner cavity of the lid when it is removed from the container, for example, by the consumer.

However, the inventor, when using different lid designs, found out that the shape of the elastic petal-like elements (their orientation in the lid's inner space) affects the reliability of holding the auxiliary equipment inside the lid and the ease of its removal from the lid. For example, the implementation of elastic petal-like elements, oriented, for example, radially or perpendicularly to the side surface of the lid (depending on the shape of the lid section) with a greater density along the perimeter of the inner surface of the lid increases the reliability of holding the auxiliary equipment, but reduces the convenience of removing it from the lid. On the contrary, the lower density of the elastic petal-like elements makes it easier to remove the accessory, but reduces the reliability of keeping the accessory inside the cover.

Therefore, the inventor experimentally found out that the implementation of the means of holding the auxiliary equipment in the form of elastic petal-like elements, which have the shape of an inclined quadrangle, one of the sides of which is connected to the inner surface of the side wall, allows to ensure the location of the auxiliary equipment of any shape, in particular with small dimensions in width, at the same time on petal-like elements located next to each other. That is, the shape of the inclined quadrilateral allows creating an almost continuous surface of elastic petal-like elements to increase the reliability of holding the auxiliary equipment and at the same time does not complicate the removal of the auxiliary equipment from the cover.

In addition, the implementation of elastic petal-like elements of a trapezoidal shape, fixed by a larger base to the inner surface of the side wall, allows to increase the manufacturability of the lid.

Also, the performance of the side of the petal-like elements, combined with the inner one

BO surface of the side wall, and the side opposite to it arc-shaped allows to additionally simplify the removal of auxiliary equipment from the cover.

At the same time, the rounding on the elastic petal-shaped element of at least one of the corners, which is adjacent to the side opposite to the side connected to the inner surface of the side wall, also makes it easier to remove the accessory from the cover and additionally increases the safety of the consumer when removing the accessory from the cover.

The execution of the case with the side walls of the cylindrical shape in the horizontal section is one of the examples of the execution of the cover for cylindrical containers.

Plastic, as an option for the material for the lid body, allows to simplify the removal of the auxiliary equipment from the lid, has sufficient reliability to hold the auxiliary equipment in the lid to clog the container and prevent them from accidentally falling out, and is technological for the manufacture of stopper lids.

The formation of the side walls of the body by two coaxial surfaces of rotation, connected in series with each other, allows you to form a cavity inside the lid for the location of auxiliary equipment and to separate it from the surface of the lid intended for landing on the container.

At the same time, the fixing of elastic petal-like elements on the inner surface of the side wall in the place of connection of the surfaces of rotation allows to simultaneously fit the cover on the container with the auxiliary equipment already located inside.

The claimed useful model is illustrated by the following example of the implementation of the cover and the corresponding drawings presented in Fig. 1-3. At the same time: in Fig. 1 shows a general view of the cover, in Fig. 2 shows a section AA in Fig. 1, in Fig. C shows view E in Fig. 1.

The pictorial materials illustrating the claimed utility model, as well as the given example of a specific implementation of the cover in no way limit the scope of the claims set forth in the formula, but only explain the essence of the utility model.

The cap for sealing the container contains a body 1, made of plastic, with side walls 2 having a cylindrical shape in a horizontal section. The side walls 2 of the body 1 are formed by two coaxial surfaces of rotation - the lower Z in the form of a cylinder and the upper 4 in the form of a truncated cone, connected in series with each other.

On the inner surface of the body 1, there is a means of holding auxiliary equipment in the form of elastic petal-like elements 5. The elastic petal-like elements 5 are fixed on the inner surface of the side wall at the junction of the rotation surfaces forming the side walls 2. Each of these elements 5 has a trapezoidal shape, fixed by a larger base b to the inner surface of the side wall. At the same time, the larger base 6 of the trapezoidal shape, connected to the inner surface of the side wall, and the opposite side 7 of the trapezoidal shape are made arc-shaped. Each elastic petal-shaped element 5 has a rounding of at least one of the corners, which is adjacent to the side 7 of the trapezoidal shape.

The cover is used as follows.

When closing the container with a lid, an auxiliary device (not shown) is first placed in the cavity 8 of the lid, formed by the upper surface 4 of the truncated cone and elastic petal-like elements 5. The auxiliary device can be a spoon, fork, knife or stick, designed to remove the contents of the container, for example, ice cream , or souvenirs and promotional items such as fridge magnets, toys, etc.

After that, the cover is put on the container with the lower surface C and, as an option, its fixation or sealing.

When the container is opened, for example, by the consumer, the reverse sequence of actions is performed, namely, the lid is removed, and the auxiliary device is removed from the lid by bending the elastic petal-like elements 5.

At the same time, the declared utility model can be manufactured using existing equipment, for example, from plastic on high-performance thermoplastic machines by injection molding on molds and stamps.

Thus, the claimed useful model makes it possible to increase the reliability of keeping the auxiliary equipment in the lid for clogging the container and to prevent their accidental falling out, for example, during transportation and opening the container and removing the lid, while simultaneously simplifying the removal of the auxiliary equipment from the lid, as well as preserving the manufacturability of the lid manufacturing.
