Definitions

  • Containers in particular containers made of synthetic material such as plastics materials and called stick containers comprise a casing in which an advancing screw in the center is operated outside the base by a rotatable button and the closing at the other end is achieved by a cap.
  • Thes containers are of widespread use and require a certain number of properties.
  • the products, contained in these containers consist partly of volatile substances.
  • the containers In order that the contents do not deteriorate, the containers must be perfectly fluidtight.
  • said containers must be of very simple operation, of an attractive appearance and be able to be manufactured in a large series at a very low cost price.
  • the invention proposes to provide an improved stick container comprising in its upper part the fluidtight cap which prevents all contact between a product composed partly of substances which are volatile and the ambient air will make possible a large scale manufacturer at low cost price.
  • the invention is concerned with a cap for stick containers made of synthetic material, characterized in that it comprises fluidtight means combined with support means and driving means to ensure fluidtightness between the casing of the container and the cap.
  • FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a casing comprising a fluidtight cap according to the invention
  • FIGURE 2 is a cross-sectional view of a fluidtight cap according to one embodiment
  • FIGURE 3 is a cross-sectional view of a fluidtight cap according to another embodiment
  • FIGURE 4 shows a device for evacuating air captive in the cap.
  • Cap 1 includes 'a body provided at one end with an inner thread.
  • the inner thread 2 corresponds to an outer thread made at the upper end of casing 3.
  • a flange 4 is recessed on cap 1.
  • This flange 4 has on its outer side 5, integrally made therewith by molding, raised or inlaid inscriptions, these being possibly publicity text, how to use instructions or any other inscription.
  • Penetration of flange 4 in housing 6 made in the upper part 7 of cap 1 is limited by inner ribs 8 8 positioned along the inner periphery 9 of cap 1. Fastening of said flange 4 can take place by setting, welding, gluing or by any other means.
  • the lid 10 of cap 1 carries a fluidtight joint 11 which is compressed when the cap is completely screwed onto casing 3.
  • This joint 11 has an annular small collar 12.
  • These transversal incisions 13 serve as a housing for one or several braces 14 made in the central opening of rib 10.
  • On the upper side 15 of lid 10 rests the side 16 of shoulder 17 made at the lower end of small collar 12. This shoulder 17- forms a stop and prevents all dissociation between cap 1 and joint 11.
  • brace 14 has for its purpose, on the one hand, to prevent that the two lips of small collar 12 fold upon one another and that as a result joint 11 escapes from its housing and on the other hand, to rotate joint 11 during screwing and unscrewing of cap 1. As a result, joint 11 adhering to the material contained in casing 3 leaves it by itself.
  • cap 1 has a special joint 18 provided with saw teeth 19 along a circumference and interfitting with other saw teeth 20 integral with said cap 1.
  • the lateral surface 22 comprising a groove 23- holds a rib 24 of cap 1.
  • the special joint 18 as shown by FIGURE 3 can be curved. It has a certain elasticity and hence the metal surface of said joint 18 is applied against the inner wall 27 of cap 1.
  • a cap for a stick container comprising a body having an inner thread at one end thereof for screwing onto a stick container, a recessed flange at the other end of said body, ribs in said body permitting penetration of said flange in said body, a lid in said body spaced from said flange, a fluidtight joint carried by said lid, said joint having an annular small collar passing through an opening in said lid, means associated with said joint for preventing rotation therewith during rotation of said cap.
