A beverage container closure with pressure release, includes a generally funnel-shaped device body having an upper portion and a lower portion, a snap ring extending around an inner periphery of said lower portion, wherein the snap ring can be releasably attached to a beverage container for maintaining a leak-proof and airtight seal with an edge of the beverage container and a snap cover releasably attached to the upper portion of the device body, wherein the snap cover is designed to release from the upper portion of the device body prior to the device body releasing from the beverage container when pressure builds up within the beverage container.
Description
- 1. Field of the Disclosure
- The present disclosure relates generally to beverage container closures and in particular, to beverage container closures with pressure release.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Beverage containers are generally formed from cylindrical aluminum cans which contain a soft drink, beer or other liquid beverage. Such containers are usually available in 12-ounce and 16-ounce volumes, although various volumes of beverage containers may be available. A conventional beverage container includes a pull tab which initially seals an opening in the top of the container and can be pulled to expose the opening and facilitate access to the beverage contents of the container. However, one of the limitations of conventional can-type beverage containers is that once the pull tab has been used to open the container, the container cannot be re-sealed in the event that some of the beverage in the container is not consumed. This causes carbonated beverages to become flat due to the escape of carbon dioxide from the beverage container and allows insects or other debris to enter the container.
- Various types of covers exist for preventing carbonated beverages in opened containers from becoming flat and for preventing insects from entering the container. Examples of covers that fit onto the top of containers are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,947,324, 5,071,042 and 4,883,192. These covers snap onto the top of the container and include caps that allow the container to be opened and closed as desired.
- These patents are only exemplary of the many devices disclosed in the art. No representation is made that these are the only or most relevant patents to the present disclosure. Although such snap-fit covers provide a convenient and easy way of resealing an opened container, it has been found that a very serious problem exists with their use. As a carbonated beverage warms or the container is shaken or otherwise disturbed, carbon dioxide is released from the carbonated beverage which causes a buildup of pressure within the now sealed container. When the pressure builds to a certain psi (pounds per square inch), the snap fit covers are forcefully ejected from the top of the container. Applicant has found that snap fit covers when ejected, can reach speeds close to roughly twice the speed of a cork being ejected from a bottle of champagne. The thus ejected snap fit cover can cause serious injury to person or property.
- A beverage container closure with pressure release, includes a generally funnel-shaped device body having an upper portion and a lower portion, a snap ring extending around an inner periphery of said lower portion, wherein the snap ring can be releasably attached to a beverage container for maintaining a leak-proof and airtight seal with an edge of the beverage container and a snap cover releasably attached to the upper portion of the device body, wherein the snap cover is designed to detach from the upper portion of the device body prior to the device body detaching from the beverage container when pressure builds up within the beverage container.
- A more complete appreciation of the present disclosure and many of the attendant advantages thereof will be readily obtained as the same becomes better understood by reference to the following detailed description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein:

- Referring to
FIG. 1 , a beverage container closure with pressure release according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown and is generally referred to herein asdevice 1.Device 1 includes abody 2 which is adapted to detachably and sealingly engage the top of a beverage container 36 (shown in phantom). Acap assembly 20 mounts ontobody 2 ofdevice 1 viamounting loop 22 and includes asnap cover 24.Snap cover 24 is attached tomounting loop 22 viatether 26. Snap cover 24 snap fits onto atop edge 42 ofbody 2 ofdevice 1, to facilitate selective closure and sealing of thebeverage container 36 and/or dispensing of a beverage from thebeverage container 36. Thebeverage container 36 may be a conventional can-type beverage container, for example, that generally includes an outwardly-rolled container rim 37 (SeeFIG. 5 ) and a pull tab (not shown). According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to avoiddevice 1 from forcefully ejecting from thebeverage container 36 when pressure builds up within the container and possibly causing injury, the device is designed so thatsnap cover 24 will release from top edge 42 (“burp”) prior thereto, thus safely releasing the pressure. The user can then press snap cover 24 back ontodevice 1 if desired. -
Device 1 prevents insects, dirt, debris and other contaminants from entering thebeverage container 36 and preserves the freshness and integrity of the beverage remaining in thebeverage container 36 after initial opening of the beverage container. Thedevice 1 is re-usable and can be readily detached from onebeverage container 36, washed and/or rinsed and attached to anotherbeverage container 36 for example, after the contents of thefirst beverage container 36 have been consumed. - According to an embodiment of the present disclosure,
device body 2 is resilient plastic.Cap assembly 20 is also resilient plastic, although a material generally softer and more flexible than that formingdevice body 2 is desirable. It should be understood thatdevice 1 may be formed of any suitable alternative resilient material(s).Device 1 may be a dishwasher-safe material, for example. Examples of materials which are suitable for fabrication ofdevice 1 include, without limitation, polyethylene, rubber, etc. However, some characteristics of the particular material(s) used to fabricatedevice 1 may vary depending on the specific nature of the application ofdevice 1. For example, characteristics which affect seal ability; resiliency; stretch; rigidity; elasticity; application force; translucence; and luminescence may determine selection of the material(s) used. - Referring to
FIG. 2 ,device body 2 is generally funnel shaped and includes aneck portion 3.Neck portion 3 includes atop edge 42,neck ring 40,ring 58 andflange 41. A middle wall portion 8 extends outwardly from theneck portion 3. A lower wall portion 10 extends from the middle wall portion 8 and includes alip 12 extending therefrom which flares outwardly, as shown. Theneck portion 3, the middle wall portion 8 and the lower wall portion 10 define adevice body interior 14 as shown inFIG. 5 . Asnap ring 16 circumscribes theinterior 14 ofdevice body 2 and generally delineates the middle wall portion 8 from lower wall portion 10, as shown in close-up inFIG. 6 . One ormore rings 63 may extend around the inner periphery oflip 12. As used herein, relative terms such as “upper”, “middle” and “lower” are intended to be descriptive non-limiting terms since they are not necessarily intended to denote the positions of the indicated components during use of thedevice 1. -
Cap assembly 20 mounts toneck portion 3, allowing thedevice 1 to be selectively opened and closed. As shown inFIGS. 3 and 4 ,cap assembly 20 includesmounting loop 22 withsnap ring 61 which allowsmounting loop 22 to be mounted toneck portion 3 ofdevice 1.Snap cover 24 is attached tomounting loop 22 viatether 26. Snapcover 24 includes a generally flat orplanar cap top 30 with a raised portion 28 (seeFIG. 1 ) extending therefrom for providing structural support tocap top 30 as well as a decorative quality to the cap. Cylindricalflat sides 32 extend fromcap top 30.Snap ring 50 extends around an inner periphery of cylindricalflat sides 32 as shown.Flexible seal ring 60 extends fromcap top 30.Flip tab 29 extends from a portion of the cylindricalflat side 32 providing an easy and efficient way of flippingopen snap cover 24. - Mounting
loop 22 is dimensioned to press fit ontoneck portion 3 into the area betweenneck ring 40 andflange 41.Snap cover 24 can then be pressed down ontotop edge 42 ofneck portion 3, so that snap cover 24 is detachably attached toneck portion 3 ofdevice body 2. As shown in closeup inFIG. 7 , a lock slot 52 is formed onneck portion 3 betweenneck ring 40 and retainingring 58, for receiving lock ring 56 of mountingloop 22.Snap ring 61 fits snugly into lock slot 52 ofneck portion 3 so thatcap assembly 20 is attached firmly todevice body 2. Asnap lock slot 48 is formed between the lower portion of outsidebeveled edge 46 andneck ring 40.Snap lock slot 48 is dimensioned for receivingsnap ring 50 of snap cover 24 as shown, whencap assembly 20 is mounted toneck portion 3.Snap ring 50 and snaplock slot 48 are designed so that snap cover 24 will release from theneck portion 3 when the pressure withindevice body 2 reaches between 7.5 psi-12.5 psi (approximately 9.75 psi on average) and more preferably approximately 12 psi. In general, this provides sufficient holding force so that even if a container sealed withdevice 1 is accidentally tipped over, the force of the liquid in the container will not inadvertently force thesnap cover 24 open. However, should sufficient pressure build up in theinterior 14 ofdevice body 2, thesnap cover 24 will pop off of theneck portion 3 prior todevice body 2 being forcefully ejected from the top ofcontainer 36. -
Top edge 42 of theneck portion 3 includes an insidebeveled edge 44 and anoutside beveled edge 46.Flexible seal ring 60 ofsnap cover 24 is shaped to complement the insidebeveled edge 44 and is positioned to provide a snug leak-proof seal along insidebeveled edge 44 oftop edge 42 ofneck portion 3 when snap cover 24 is pressed closed. As snap cover 24 is being pressed down ontotop edge 42 ofneck portion 3,snap ring 50 engages outside bevelededge 46 and forces cylindricalflat sides 32 outward untilsnap ring 50 snaps intosnap lock slot 48, thereby securingsnap cover 24 in its closed position. - As illustrated in
FIGS. 1 , 5 and 6, in use ofdevice 1, thedevice 1 is snap-fit onto thebeverage container 36. As illustrated inFIG. 5 , the interior surface of flaredlip 12 ofdevice body 2 guides the rolled upper container rim 37 of the beverage container 36 (shown in phantom) beyond and into engagement with thecatch ring 16, which snugly engages thecontainer rim 37.Container rim 37 is thus snap-fit into engagement withcatch ring 16 and provides an airtight seal between the interior of thedevice 1 and thebeverage container 36. The snap-fit airtight seal between thedevice 1 andcontainer 36 is designed so that it can withstand pressure buildups withininterior 14 ofdevice body 2 between 17 psi-21 psi and more preferably approximately 20 psi. As noted above, the snap-fit betweensnap cover 24 andtop edge 42 ofneck portion 3 ofdevice 1 is designed to withstand pressures no more than approximately 12.3 psi. Accordingly, snap cover 24 will pop off ofneck portion 3 prior to sufficient pressure building up and forcefully ejectingdevice 1 fromcontainer 36 in a dangerous manner. - Referring to
FIGS. 1 , 5 and 7, in typical application of thedevice 1, thebeverage container 36 is initially opened by pulling the pull tab (not illustrated), in the conventional manner. Thedevice body 2 of thedevice 1 is attached to thebeverage container 36 by lowering thedevice body 2 over thebeverage container 36 and pressing down ondevice 1 until container rim 37 of thebeverage container 36 snapspast catch ring 16. As shown inFIG. 6 , the interior surface of flaredlip 12 guides thecontainer rim 37 into engagement with thecatch ring 16. Because of the resiliency of flaredlip 12, thecatch ring 16 stretches to accommodate the diameter of thecontainer rim 37 and then recoils against thecontainer rim 37 to achieve a snug, airtight fit between thecatch ring 16 and thecontainer rim 37. - For temporary storage of the
beverage container 36 prior to dispensing of the beverage (not illustrated) from thebeverage container 36, snap cover 24 is pressed ontotop edge 42 ofneck portion 3 untilsnap ring 50 engagessnap lock slot 48 and snaps into place. If beverage in thebeverage container 36 is a carbonated beverage, carbon dioxide gas from the beverage is initially unable to escape from thedevice body interior 14 through the cappedneck portion 3 or from thelip portion 16 of thedevice body 2 due to the airtight seals provided. This prevents the carbon dioxide from escaping from thedevice 1 and maintains the carbonation integrity and freshness of the beverage. Furthermore, thesnap cover 24 prevents insects, dirt, debris and other contaminants from entering thedevice body interior 14 and thebeverage container 36 throughneck portion 3 ofdevice 1. However, if too much pressure builds up in thedevice body interior 14, thesnap cover 24 will gently open or “burp” thus preventing thedevice 1 from being forcefully ejected from thecontainer 36. - When dispensing of the beverage from the
beverage container 36 is desired, snap cover 24 is removed from theneck portion 3 of thedevice body 2 by pressingflip tab 29 in an upward direction. Accordingly, the beverage can be selectively dispensed from thebeverage container 36 through device body interior 14 (FIG. 5 ) ofdevice body 2. - When additional beverage remains in
beverage container 36 after the desired quantity of beverage has been dispensed frombeverage container 36, snap cover 24 can again be attached toneck portion 3 to sealinterior 14 ofdevice body 2 by firmly pressing down onsnap cover 24 untilsnap ring 50 engagessnap lock slot 48. After the beverage has been completely dispensed from thebeverage container 36,device 1 can be removed from thebeverage container 36 and attached to anotherbeverage container 36 for further use. - The
device body 2 and/orcap assembly 20 may be in any of various colors to differentiatemultiple devices 1 from each other to aid in container identification whenmultiple devices 1 are attached to multiplerespective beverage containers 36 simultaneously. In addition, although thecap assembly 20 has been described as being press fit intoneck portion 3, it could of course be attached in other ways. For example, mountingloop 22 andneck portion 3 ofdevice 1 can be provided with threads, allowingcap assembly 20 to be screwed ontoneck portion 3. In this case, snap cover 24 would still snap onto the top edge ofneck portion 3 as described above. - While the illustrative embodiments of the disclosure have been described above, it will be recognized and understood that various modifications can be made in the disclosure and the appended claims are intended to cover all such modifications which may fall within the spirit and scope of the disclosure.
- Numerous additional modifications and variations of the present disclosure are possible in view of the above-teachings. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims, the present disclosure may be practiced other than as specifically described herein.
