Abstract
A container having a neck (2), which surrounds an opening (3) in the container, and a plastic collar (21), which can be screwed onto the neck and has a top side and an underside and an outer circumference. The neck is provided with a first screw thread and the collar is provided with a second screw thread (24). Beneath the fist screw thread, the neck is provided with a blocking rib (7) which projects nalially outwards. On the underside, the collar is provided with a tamper-evident ring (25), which ring is provided, on the inner circumference, with inwardly projecting flexible blocking members (27), which are distributed around the circumference, in such a manner that when the collar is being screwed onto the neck the flexible blocking members pass over the blocking rib, and when the collar is being unscrewed the blociccng rib forms a stop for the blocking members, resulting in one or more parts of the collar being broken.
Description
- The invention relates to a combination of a container having a neck, which surrounds an opening in the container, and a plastic collar, which can be screwed onto the neck, in accordance with the preamble of
claim 1. The invention also relates to a plastic collar which is intended for a combination of this type and to an object in which a collar of this type is integrated. - The collar may, for example, form (an integral) part of a closure member for the container.
- In a preferred application of the invention, the collar is an integral part of a screw cap, for example having a closure wall running transversely with respect to the circumferential wall of the collar.
- The collar could also be designed as a securing collar for fixing an object, for example a pump enabling the contents of the container to be dispensed via the pump, in the neck of the container.
- All kinds of different embodiments of a combination according to the preamble of
claim 1 and a collar which is intended for this combination are known. - U.S. Pat. No. 5,819,965 has disclosed a screw cap with tamper-evident ring, in which breakable bodies are present between that part of the collar of the screw cap which is provided with the screw thread and the tamper-evident ring. When the cap is unscrewed for the first time, the breakable bodies break and the tamper-evident ring remains behind on the neck of the container.
- One drawback of this known screw cap is that the tamper-evident ring remains behind on the container. Particularly if the container is intended for a beverage which is suitable for human consumption and it is intended or can be expected that the consumer will put the container to his mouth in order to drink the beverage, there is a risk of the tamper-evident ring becoming detached and entering the mouth.
- DE 87 16625 has disclosed a screw cap with a tamper-evident ring to which flexible blocking members are secured, the document disclosing ring segments and breakable bridges between the ring segments.
- A significant drawback of this known screw cap is that it is difficult to produce it by injection-moulding, since the flexible blocking members are oriented in such a manner with respect to the cap that they point towards the cap. If this device is made in a mould using the injection-moulding method, the cap will be very difficult to remove from the mould after the injection-moulding has taken place. It is impeded by the flexible blocking members. The cap or the mould will have to be deformed in order for the cap to be removed from the mould.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved plastic collar which avoids the abovementioned drawback.
- Another object is to provide a plastic collar which allows simple production.
- The present invention provides a combination according to the preamble of
claim 1, which is characterized in that each connecting body extends radially inwards from the top side of the ring segment, and each ring segment has an associated single connecting body which extends over a smaller circumferential angle than the associated ring segment, so that there is an opening between circumferentially successive connecting bodies, and the blocking member which is associated with a ring segment being arranged offset, as seen in the circumferential direction, with respect to the connecting body. - The present invention also provides a plastic collar according to
claim 5. - The plastic collar according to the invention which can be screwed onto the neck of a container, and advantageous embodiments thereof, will be explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing, in which:
-
FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of an exemplary embodiment of a screw cap according to the invention and a spout which can be sealed in a film/foil pouch and has a neck onto which the cap can be screwed, -
FIG. 2 shows a side view of the screw cap and spout shown inFIG. 1 , with the cap having been screwed onto the neck of the spout, -
FIG. 3 shows a plan view, on a larger scale, of the screw cap and spout fromFIGS. 1 and 2 , and -
FIG. 4 shows a vertical section, on a larger scale, through the screw cap and spout shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 , on line IV-IV inFIG. 3 . - The figures show a combination of a
spout 1 and ascrew cap 20. - The
spout 1 is made from plastic and is intended to be sealed in a film/foil pouch, so that thespout 1 forms part of a container, for example for a beverage which is suitable for human consumption. - The
spout 1 has a body with a substantiallycylindrical neck 2, which surrounds anopening 3, in the present example of a passage for supplying a medium to the container and/or discharging a medium from the container. - The
bottom part 5 of thespout 1 is designed to be sealed between two opposite walls of the film/foil pouch. - The
neck 2 is provided, in its top part, with afirst screw thread 6. Furthermore, beneath thefirst screw thread 6 theneck 2 is provided with a blockingrib 7 which projects radially outwards. - In this example, the
spout body 1 is provided with a number of furthercircumferential ribs 8 which are used to enable the spout body to be handled. - The
screw cap 20 is likewise produced by injection-moulding in a suitable injection mould. - The
screw cap 20 has acollar 21, which can be screwed onto theneck 2 and has atransverse wall 22, which extends transversely over the top side of thecollar 21, and has anunderside 23 and an outer circumference, which in this case is provided with ribs for improving grip on thescrew cap 20. - The
collar 21 is provided, on the inner side, with asecond screw thread 24, which is complementary to thefirst screw thread 6 in order for thecap 20 to be screwed onto theneck 2. - On the underside, the
screw cap 20 is provided with a tamper-evident ring 25, which will be explained in more detail below with reference toFIGS. 1-4 . - The tamper-
evident ring 25 has a plurality ofring segments 26, in the present example three, which lie adjacent to one another as seen in the circumferential direction of thering 25. - Each
ring segment 26 is provided, on the inner side, with an inwardly projectingflexible blocking member 27. In this example, eachblocking member 27 is designed as a flexible lip which projects obliquely upwards from the inner side of thering segment 26 and is integral with thering segment 26 only at its bottom end. - On its top side, each
ring segment 26 is integrally connected to thecollar 21 via a single, unbreakable and flexible connectingbody 28. - In this case, the
connecting body 28 extends radially inwards from the top edge of thering segment 26 and adjoins thebottom edge 23 of thecircumferential wall 21 of thescrew cap 20. - The
connecting body 28 extends over a smaller circumferential angle than the associatedring segment 26, so that there is an opening 29 between circumferentially successive connectingbodies 28. Moreover, the blockingmember 27 associated with aring segment 26 is arranged offset, as seen in the circumferential direction, with respect to the connectingbody 28. - In particular, in the embodiment shown the connecting
body 28 is located in the vicinity of the front end, as seen in the unscrewing direction, of aring segment 26 and the blockingmember 28 behind it, in this example close to the rear end of the associatedring segment 26. This arrangement of these components with respect to one another is advantageous with a view to unscrewing thecap 20, but other arrangements are also conceivable within the context of the invention. - A significant advantage of the measures described above is that it is possible to make do with a relatively simple injection mould for production of the
screw cap 20. - Each
ring segment 26 is connected to theadjacent ring segments 26 via thin,breakable bridges 30. Thesebridges 30 are in this case located close to the bottom edge of thering segments 26. - The design of the
cap 20, and in particular of the tamper-evident ring 25 thereof, means that when thecap 20 is being screwed onto theneck 2, theflexible lips 27 pass over the blockingrib 7 without thebreakable bridges 30 being damaged. In this way, thelips 27 then engage behind the underside of the blockingrib 7. - When the
cap 20 is being unscrewed for the first time, thelips 27 come into contact with the underside of the blockingrib 7. When thecap 20 is unscrewed further, the forces generated in the tamper-evident ring 25 are such that one or morebreakable bridges 30 of the tamper-evident ring 25 break. As a result, thering segments 26 with thelips 27 can move outwards and thelips 27 can move past the blockingrib 7. - It is important that the
ring segments 26 remain integral with thescrew cap 20 and therefore do not remain behind on theneck 2. The fact that thebridges 30 have broken is clearly visible, so the consumer can see whether the cap has previously been opened. - It will be clear that the neck may also form an integral part of a container, for example a (plastic) bottle.
