Abstract

A can end is provided with a pour opening having a pour width. The pour opening is provided with an entry aperture at one end of the pour opening. The entry aperture has a slide width greater than the pour width. The can end has a can end lapping portion and a can end sealing portion adjacent the pour opening and a plane of bulge strength adjacent the entry aperture. A slide has a pivot on the can end, is adapted to pass through the entry aperture and has a slide lapping portion and a slide sealing portion. The slide lapping portion is adapted to register with the can end lapping portion, and the slide sealing portion is adapted to register with the plane of bulge strength. A pull tab has a connection to the slide. Engaging means engage the can end lapping portion to press the can end lapping portion into intimate contact with the slide lapping portion and the slide sealing portion into intimate contact with the plane of bulge strength. A pressure barrier material is used for sealing the intimately contacting can end sealing portion and the slide lapping portion and also for sealing the intimately contacting plane of bulge strength and the slide sealing portion. The pressure barrier material is bonded to the can end sealing portion with a first predetermined shear strength and to the slide lapping lapping portion and to the plane of bulge strength with a second predetermined shear strength less than the first predetermined shear strength. The pull tab is rotatable about the pivot to break the bond between the slide lapping portion and the pressure barrier material adjacent the can end sealing portion so that the pressure barrier material adjacent the can end sealing surface now functions as an exit and reclosure slide guide. The pull tab causes breakage of the bond between the pressure barrier material adjacent the plane of bulge strength and the slide sealing portion and causes the slide to move through the entry aperture on the pressure barrier material adjacent the plane of bulge strength and such pressure barrier material to act as a guide to uncover the pour opening.

[5 7] ABSTRACT A can end is provided with a pour opening having a pour width. The pour opening is provided with an entry aperture at one end of the pour opening. The entry aperture has a slide width greater than the pour width. The can end has a can end lapping portion and a can end sealing portion adjacent the pour opening and a plane of bulge strength adjacent the entry aperture. A slide has a pivot on the can end, is adapted to pass through the entry aperture and has a slide lapping portion and a slide sealing portion. The slide lapping portion is adapted to register with the can end lapping portion, and the slide sealing portion is adapted to re- 'gister with the plane of bulge strength. A pull tab has a connection to the slide. Engaging means engage the can end lapping portion to press the can end lapping portion into intimate contact with the slide lapping portion and the slide sealing portion into intimate contact with the plane of bulge strength. A pressure barrier material is used ,for sealing the intimately contacting can end sealing portion and the slide lapping portion and also for sealing the intimately contacting plane of bulge strength and the slide sealing portion. The pressure barrier material is bonded to the can end sealing portion with a first predetermined shear strength and to the slide lapping lapping portion and to the plane of bulge strength with a second predetermined shear strength less than the first predetermined shear strength. The pull tab is rotatable about the pivot to break the bond between the slide lapping portion and the pressure barrier material adjacent the can end sealing portion so that the pressure barrier material ad'acent the can end sealin surface now fun tions as ari exit and reclosure sli e guide. The pul tab causes breakage of the bond between the pressure barrier material adjacent the plane of bulge strength and the slide sealing portion and causes the slide to move through the entry aperture on the pressure barrier material adjacent the plane of bulge strength and such pressure barrier material to :act as a guide to uncover the pour opening.
