Definitions

  • the invention is intended to be used as a daily necessity, to be specific, a cap for sealing the bottle.
  • Bottle is one of the most common containers in daily life.
  • Bottle is generally made of glass or plastic.
  • the cap should be fitted with the mouth of the bottle.
  • FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show traditional connections between bottle and cap.
  • Cap 01 is composed of cap 011 and sealing plate 012 , both of which are made of metal.
  • the sealing plate 012 covers the mouth of bottle 100 ; the cap 011 is screwed with the thread on the outside of the mouth of the bottle.
  • the sealing plate 012 is tightened inside the cap 011 . It is apparent that the traditional bottle cap is not easy to use and the sealing effect is poor. Some improvements are necessary.
  • Embodiments of the invention relate generally to a silicone bottle cap comprising a silicone cap whose lower end is open and expanded. Inside the cap there are more than two circular sealing ribs, which are screwed with the threads on the outside of the mouth of the bottle to be sealed.
  • the whole cap is made of silicone, which is a material of flexibility and elasticity.
  • the bottle cap is placed above the bottle mouth and pressed downward to seal the bottle.
  • the circular sealing ribs inside the cap can be screwed with the thread on the outside of the bottle cap. Therefore, the bottle cap will not easily fall off, and the sealing effect is improved.
  • To remove the bottle cap the lower end of the cap is flapped and the cap is pulled upwards. The bottle cap is easy to use.
  • FIG. 1 is a sketch of the whole structure of a common bottle and its bottle cap.
  • FIG. 2 is a sketch of breakdown structure of a common bottle and its bottle cap.
  • FIG. 3 is a sketch of the structure of the silicon bottle cap of the invention.
  • FIG. 4 is a sketch of the silicon bottle cap of the invention in application.
  • FIG. 5 is another sketch of the silicon bottle cap of the invention in application.
  • FIG. 6 is a sketch of sectional view of a combination of the silicon bottle cap of the invention and a bottle.
  • the terms “include” and “comprise” are used in an open-ended fashion, and thus should be interpreted to mean “include, but not limited to . . . ”.
  • the term “couple” is intended to mean either an indirect or direct connection. Accordingly, if one device is coupled to another device, then that connection may be through a direct connection, or through an indirect connection via other components and/or other connections.
  • the purpose of the intention is to provide a new type of silicone bottle cap that is an improvement of the current technique.
  • the new bottle cap has the features of simple structure, easy operation, and good sealing effect.
  • the silicone bottle cap invented comprises a silicone cap, with its lower end open and expanded, more than two circular sealing ribs inside the cap which are screwed with the thread on the outside of the mouth of the bottle.
  • the lower end of the cap is equipped with an outward-turning lace.
  • the lace has a wave-like shape.
  • the inside of the cap has parallel sealing ribs.
  • the top of the cap is closed.
  • the top of cap has a closed site of insertion.
  • the top of the cap has hollowed-out holes.
  • the benefits of the invention lie in the following aspects: since the whole bottle cap is made of silicone which is flexible and elastic, the bottle can be sealed by pressing downward the cap onto the mouth of the bottle directly.
  • the circular sealing ribs inside the cap can be screwed with the threads on the outside of the mouth of the bottle. Therefore, the bottle cap will not easily fall off and the sealing effect can be improved.
  • the lower end of the cap is flapped and the cap is pulled upwards. The bottle cap is very easy to use.
  • the silicone bottle cap consists of a silicone cap 10 , which is cylindrical.
  • the lower end of the cap is open and expanded, with an outward-turning lace 12 , which makes it easy for the cap 10 to fit the mouth of the bottle 100 .
  • Lace 12 is wave-like.
  • the lace 12 is flapped and the cap is pulled upwards. Then the bottle cap can be separated from the mouth of bottle 100 .
  • the bottle cap 10 Inside the bottle cap 10 there are two circular sealing ribs 11 parallel with each other.
  • the sealing ribs 11 are screwed with the threads 101 on the outside of the mouth of the bottle 100 . Due to the special features of silicone, the cap 10 can tightly envelope the mouth of the bottle. Even when the bottle 100 is inverted and shaken violently, the liquid in the bottle 100 will not leak out.
  • the top of the cap 10 can be made with closed site of insertion 13 , as shown in FIG. 3 .
  • the site of insertion 13 is cross-like. When the straw is not inserted in, the site of insertion 13 is closed, and the liquid in bottle 100 will not leak out.
  • the top of the cap 10 can be made with hollowed-out hole 14 .
  • This design is suitable for bottle used for cultivating flowers.
  • the bottle cap of such design is also easy to use.
