Definitions

  • the invention relates to plugs for glass bottles that can be used for automated closure, for long-term preservation of wine and champagne, and for other liquids.
  • a plug design for bottles used for preservation of wine consisting of two separate parts in the form of small cups being inserted in each other, at the same time the lower portion is used for hermetic closure of the bottle, the upper portion is made for wedging of the bottom, is known.
  • Patent EP No 0894730, IPC B65D39/16; 1999 The presented plug serves as an alternative to a cork stopper, its removal from the bottle requires an additional device such as a corkscrew.
  • a plug design for bottles of sparkling wine (Patent DE No 202006006096, IPC B65D39/00; 2006), which is a rod on which the group of bushes are arranged, at the top of the rod a handle is installed, and in the inner part it has a screwed connection with the rod and a sealing bush with a screwed connection, is also known.
  • the present plug is intended for holding due to the presence of a long body formed by the bushes. Wedging of the plug happens when the upper handle rotates.
  • the plug design is designated for ensuring of sealing of bottles of sparkling wine without using a metal flange. Design complexity and multiplicity of operations for placing the cork into the bottle does not allow to use this device for long-term preservation of liquids in an industrial environment, and the process of ensuring of hermiticity requires high labor costs.
  • the closest by the technical nature is the stopper device for repeated closure of bottles (U.S. Pat. No. 3,937,350, IPC B65D39/12; 1976), chosen as a prototype, consisting of a small cup made of elastomer (rubber or caoutchouc), wherein fillers are formed on the small cup, a cap is made in the form of an umbrella and has a connection with a metal rod, the rod size is bigger than the internal cavity of the small cup.
  • This device operates as follows: when the rod moves down, the latter stretches the elastic small cup, the walls of the small cup become thin, and the diameter of the small cup increases, holding the stopper by the inner walls of the bottle. For removing the stopper from the bottle the cap with the rod should be pulled up.
  • the described device allows to reclose bottles of different types, but it does not provide long-term hermiticity of repeated closure and quality of preservation.
  • the small rubber cup is not designed for extended operation, as the material of the small cup begins to lose its properties in case of long-term stretching and has a low chemical compatibility with food.
  • Elastomers rubber or caoutchouc
  • the rod is made of a metal, the extraction of the stopper out of the bottle is carried out only after lifting the rod up.
  • the type of deformation “tension-compression” is generally used, wherein the thickness of the walls of the small cup varies significantly, which prevents the use of food polymer materials with a low elasticity.
  • the described device is not designed for automated closure.
  • the basis of the presented invention is the creation of a plug for glass bottles providing reliability and simplicity of automated initial closure and repeated closure as well, along with safety of installation and removal of a plug and improvement of storage conditions of a cocked product.
  • the set problem is solved by means of a plug for glass bottles, containing the upper portion in the form of a cap and the lower portion in the form of a flask with a flange, a rod with guiding members and travel stops providing a given movement of the rod relative to the flask, a button is mounted on the upper end of the rod, a skirt with fillers is formed on the flask, and on the outer side of the flask at least one fixation is arranged in the form of a support, the wall of the flask in the area where the fixations are provided is made of a polymer material with a relatively low elasticity and is capable of deformation like a curve, at least, one pusher and/or, at least, one return cam are formed inside the flask, the rod is equipped with the working member, the latter is made with the possibility of interaction with the pusher and/or with the return cam for providing the interaction between the button and the fixation.
  • a cap can have various embodiments, for example, can close the bottle stopper ring from the outer side, or be flat, or in the form of a bottle hood, or rise significantly above the upper cut of the bottle stopper ring, or of any other known form.
  • the cap may be connected with the flask in a rigid or movable way, or be rigidly connected with the flask via the destructible bridges or be performed as a separate component.
  • a metal flange on the cap an additional area can be made to install a metal flange (muzzle).
  • a control locking ring can be formed on the cap.
  • the cap can be made both of a food polymer and of other materials (metal, glass, etc.).
  • Guiding elements and travel stops can be made as separate components or be presented by the elements of a flask, rod or cap. Guiding elements and travel stops provide a given rectilinear or curvilinear movement of the rod relative to the flask.
  • the lower portion of the plug is presented in the form of a flask with a flange.
  • the flange provides the holding of the flask by the upper cup of a bottle.
  • the flask may be presented in the form of a small cup with the bottom of the spherical, flat, concave upward part, with the open lower portion or be of another known form.
