Burroughs, Glendale, Calif., assignor to Burroughs Manufacturing Corp., Los Angeles, Calif, a corporation of California Application September 12, 1955, Serial No. 533,545
2 Claims. (Cl. 1s0-.s
This invention relates to containers, and, more particularly, to a container in which the cap may be easily attached and removed manually, yet which will maintain an airtight seal when closed although subjected to substantial Pressures or vacuum.
' Therefore, it is an object of the invention to provide a container, the cover of which may be manually attached to andremoved from the body thereof, the attached body and cover being sealed together to withstand substantial pressure variations.
It is another object of the invention to provide a container in which the sealing portions of one or both components thereof are made of a resilient and manually deformable material, such as polyethylene or the like, so as to enable the two components to be engaged and disengaged.
It is another object of the invention to provide a container in which the sealing portions of at least one of the components thereof is a flexible material, the sealing portion of one of said components being held in engagement with the sealing portion of the other of said components under stress so that contact is made at more than one point between the sealing portions.
Another object of the invention is to provide a container in which the cover and body thereof are provided with corresponding tapered sections and with mating latching means which, when latched, urge the corresponding tapered sections into engagement. of the invention is to provide such a container in which the mating latching means urge a flap of the cover into engagement with a hp of the body while urging the corresponding tapered sections into engagement.
The invention also comprises novel details of construction and novel combinations and arrangements of parts, which will more fully appear in the course of the following description. The drawing merely shows and the description merely describes a preferred embodiment of the present invention which is given by way of illustration or example.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is an isometric view of the preferred embodiment of the invention showing the cover thereof attached to the body;
Fig. 2 is a side view of the embodiment of Fig. 1 shown partially in section;
Fig. 3 is a sectional view similar to that shown in Fig. 2, with the cover removed from the body; and
Fig. 4 is an enlarged view of a portion of Fig. 2.
A container of the invention is comprised of a body 12 and a cover 14, the two components having mating contact surfaces and means for holding these surfaces in fixed engagement when the cover is in position on the body.
The body 12 includes a substantially bowl-shaped portion 16 suitable for retaining the material which is to be placed in the container, the bowl-shaped portion having a rim 18 around the upper edge thereof. The interior surface of the body 12 at the rim 18 thereof is formed A further object 1 2,833,324 Patented May 6,
ably having a flat portion 24 adjacent the rim 18 and a downwardly curved portion 26 adjoining the flat portion 24.
The cover 14 includes a flap 30, so shaped as to mate with the lip 22 of the body 12, and a central portion 32' which is displaced axially downward from the flap 30.
The periphery 34 of an axially projecting wall 36con necting the flap 30 with the central portion 32 is tapered to correspond to the taper 20 on the rim 18 of the body 12. The minimum distance between opposing portions of the tapered surface 20 is less than the maximum distance between opposing portions of the tapered surface 34 so that when placing the cover 14 on the body 12, as shown in Fig. 4, one or both of the components must be temporarily deformed.
In order to contact or mate with the lip 22, the flap 30 is provided with a flat portion 38 and a downwardly curving portion 40. A cap 44 is formed around the edge of the curved portion 40 of the flap 30, the cap including a portion 46 extending inward toward the center of the container to engage the outermost edge of the lip 22. The cap 44 may also include an outwardly extending portion 48 providing an edge facilitating manual gripping of the cover.
Both the body 12 and the cover 14 of the container are preferably made of a tough, flexible material which can be temporarily deformed without permanent injury thereto. Various plastic materials of the polyethylene type are suitable for this use. It should be noted that only one of the two components need be made of the flexible material, since, if one component is flexible and temporarily deformable, the other component may be rigidly constructed.
In attaching the cover to the body of the container, the central portion 32 of the cover is first inserted into the open mouth of the body. Forsome applications of the container, the resultant mating of the two tapered surfaces 20 and 34 will provide adequate sealing. Forces tending to remove the cover from the body must be su'fiicient to so deform the components that the interfering tapered surfaces can be moved past one another.
The tightness of the closure effected by the cover and body is improved by the latching action provided with the engagement of the cap 44 of the cover with the lip 22 of the body. After the central portion 32 of the cover has been pressed into the open mouth of the body, the flap 30 is stretched down over the lip 22 and the portion 46 of the cap 44 is hooked under the edge of the curved portion 26 of the lip 22. The flap and lip are so dimensioned that, when engaged as described above, the flap is stressed in tension and the lip is stressed in compression, thereby producing a sealing contact between the tapered surfaces 20 and 34, between the flat portions 24 and 38, between the curved portions 26 and 40, and at the engagement of the cap 44 with the edge of the lip. Thus, it is seen that an extremely tight seal is provided, the latching means insuring that the seal remains under stress and also that it is not accidentally opened. This rugged and effective seal is obtained using two components which are easily produced in large quantities using conventional materials and machinery.
Although one exemplary embodiment of the invention has been disclosed and discussed, it will be understood that other applications of the invention are possible and that the embodiment disclosed may be subjected to various changes, modifications and substitutions without necessarily departing from the spirit of the invention.
I claim as my invention:
