Definitions

  • the main object of the invention is a lid for glass bottles, preferably made of metal or any other type of suitable plastic material; it has the particularity of having a V-shaped rib which snugly fits against the internal contour of the mouth of the neck of a bottle, and which in turn has an upwardly domed surface on which pressure is exerted to facilitate the opening of said lid.
  • lids and/or caps for glass bottles which are preferably used to contain liquid refreshment beverages and the like.
  • caps which are usually made of sheet metal and are adapted to the external contour of the lip corresponding to the mouth of the bottle, which adaptation is done by means of folds made on the lid itself when it is applied on the lip or mouth of the bottle.
  • “Crown” caps of this type require a tool or opener for removing the cap from the bottle, since manual handling which allows the opening cannot be carried out due precisely to the folds which wrap around the lower side part of the lip corresponding to the mouth of the bottle.
  • caps or lids which are coupled by threading on the neck of the bottle, which evidently requires forming a thread in the cap or lid and another thread in the mouth of the bottle or neck thereof.
  • caps or lids which are coupled to the neck of the bottle and are retained and fixed to said mouth through a ring, the ring needing to be pulled to open it, which is not easy and in most cases also needs a suitable tool.
  • a lid for glass bottles which facilitates the opening thereof in the simplest way possible is therefore desirable, having been contrived as an improvement of the state of the art based on a body in the form of a crown cap without peripheral folds.
  • the “lid for bottles” object of the present specification characterised in that it proposes a body in the form of a crown cap without peripheral folds, being provided with a concentric upwardly V-shaped annular rib, said V-shaped rib defining an upwardly domed circular surface which at one point will form means for being pressed on and opening the lid, with the particularity that it folds back a longitudinally segmented flange to facilitate opening.
  • the body is coupled on the corresponding lip of the mouth of the bottle, adapting to the latter and being fixed and retained by the peripheral and external sector of the body with respect to the lid, while the hermetic closure is formed by the concentric annular rib itself provided with a liner which snugly fits against the internal contour of the mouth itself of the bottle, achieving perfect sealing thereof.
  • the lid is thus perfectly sealed and secured, efficiently closing the bottle, such that said bottle can be opened by simply pressing on the upper surface, which leads to deforming the V-shaped rib, with the subsequent folding back of the external side flange that is longitudinally segmented by conical slits and positioned transversally to its axis, which will be separated from the lip of the mouth of the bottle, the lid thus being freed with respect to said bottle, said separation being facilitated by the slits of the rib.
  • the lid will comprise a metal or plastic body of equivalent mechanical features.
  • FIG. 1 shows a view of a lid like that proposed in the present invention on the neck of a bottle in the closed position.
  • FIG. 1A depicts a cross-section of the lid proposed in the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 shows the lid of FIG. 1 in the open position.
  • FIG. 2A shows a cross-section of the lid proposed in FIG. 1 in the open position.
  • FIG. 3 shows an isolated view of the lid proposed by the present invention, where FIG. 3A shows a detail of the conical slits of the flange.
  • the lid of the invention is characterised in that it comprises a body ( 1 ) preferably made of metal, without discarding other types of materials with similar mechanical properties, such that said body ( 1 ) has a segmented skirt or peripheral flange ( 2 ) which is adapted in the assembly and closure of said lid on the neck ( 3 ) of the bottle over the lip ( 4 ) of the mouth of said neck ( 3 ) of the bottle, all based on the body ( 1 ) of the lid having a concentric upwardly open V-shaped annular rib ( 5 ), which rib defines an upwardly domed annular area ( 6 ), as depicted in FIGS. 1 and 2 .
  • the V-shaped rib ( 5 ) is located on the internal edge of the mouth of the neck ( 3 ), forming a sealed fit as a result of, on one hand, the skirt or lower flange ( 2 ) that is segmented by conical slits snugly fitting externally over the lip ( 4 ) of the neck of the bottle, and on the other hand, being provided with a liner ( 7 ), providing a sealing and in turn helping the opening of the bottle; the annular area ( 6 ) being upwardly domed.
  • the dome of the annular area ( 6 ) is pressed downwards as depicted in FIG. 2 , deforming the V-shaped rib ( 5 ) and causing the folding back thereof and the corresponding separation of the segmented skirt or external flange ( 2 ) of the body ( 1 ) of the lid, freeing it with respect to the neck ( 3 ) of the bottle.
  • the slits of the flange ( 2 ) have a conical section, i.e., their width decreases from the lower part of the flange ( 2 ) towards the upper part of the flange ( 2 ) and attachment with the body ( 1 ).
