Definitions
- the spout is provided with a pouring tongue attached to the inner side of the spout, extending initially outwardly parallel to the spout axis and subsequently being curved in the same direction as and spaced from the pouring lip.
- the lip acts to draw the last drop back into the bottle.
- the invention relates to a pouring stop for bottles and similar liquid containers, comprising a plug body to be inserted in the opening of the container, the plug body being provided with an at least gutter-shaped spout with a pouring lip.
- the pouring stop according to the invention is characterized in that the spout at the location of the lip is provided with a tongue which is applied to the inner face of the spout extending from there initially outwardly and parallel to the axis and subsequently having a curved shape in the same direction as the spout lip.
- FIG. 1 is an elevation of the pouring stop according to the invention as contemplated in thedirection I in FIG. 2;
- FIG. 2 is a plan view of the pouring stop
- FIG. 3 is a sectional 'view according to the arrows III- -III in FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 is an axial sectional view through the upper part of a bottle which is provided with a pouring stop according to the invention and with a closure cap, to a reduced scale as compared with the preceding figures.
- the pouring stop comprises a substantially cylindriformed in the body of the pouring stop by providing a bottom 5.
- the gutter-shaped spout 6 In this bottom is provided the gutter-shaped spout 6.
- the bottom 5 consists of two portions which in the upright position of the pouring stop slope slightly downwardly. Consequently the lowest point of the bottom is on the line denoted by 7in FIGS. 2 and 3, and
- this line extends through the opening which together with the spout 6 is provided'in the bottom '5.
- the gu'tter-shaped spout is provided with a lip 9 along which the liquid is poured out, in the position as represented in FIG. 3. So far the pouring stop is in'conformity with the prior art construction.
- the tongue 10 is provided according to the invention.
- This tongue is at 11 for-a rather great length affixed against the inner wall 6" of the spout which in a known manner slightly widens with a view to the provision of the closure cap.
- the side of the tongue which is directed toward the axis of "the spout extends parallel to the axis on the entire fastening area.
- thetongue 10 continues over a short distance outwardly to subsequently merge into a portion'having a curved shapein the same direction as the lip 9.
- the end 12 of the tongue 10 may end at a slightly greater distance from the axis than the lip 9.:Preferably the end 12 of the tongue extends in a direction which is at right angles with the axis of the spout and of the pouring stop, respectively.
- a tongue 10 constructed in this manner is as follows. On pouring out the viscous liquid from'the spout in an approximately horizontal position of the bottle and the stop respectively, as drawn in FIG. 3, the jet flows in a-known way over the lip 9 of the spout. The entire tongue is then somewhere within the outflowing jet of liquid. At the moment that the bottle is again being brought into the upright position the outflowing jet will naturally become thinner, and this thinning jet is then guided by the tongue 10.
- a tongue 10 according to the invention liquids with a very wide range of viscosity values can be poured out. It is possible, though, to make two or three embodiments of the pouring stop having different size of the tongue 10. For a range of extremely high viscosity values a larger tongue may then be applied. Larger in this case means that the end 12 of the tongue comes to lie as well in an axial direction at a slightly greater distance from the lip 9 of the spout as at a slightly greater distance in a radial direction with respect to the axis of the pouring stop. For a medium range of viscosity values the size as represented in the drawing should be observed; in this respect it should be noted that FIGS. 1 to 3 are on a scale 2:1 and FIG.
- the most simple way of manufacturing the pouring stop with tongue according to the invention is the one in which the whole product is made from plastic by injection moulding as it is also the case for the pouring stops so far known which are not provided with the tongue according to the invention.
- FIG. 4 represents the upper portion 13 of the bottle in which a pouring stop 1 according to the invention is inserted in the neck 14, which in a known way, is threaded externally so that a cap 15 can be screwed thereon. Likewise in a known way this cap is on its inner side provided with a cylindrical part 16, which fits into the spout and closes the opening 8 (FIG. 2) in the spout.
- the pouring stop with tongue according to the invention can be applied with any kind of liquid containers, glass bottles, plastic bottles, oil cans, etc.
- a pouring stop for bottles comprising, in combination:
- a plug body having a base portion adapted to be inserted in the opening of a container and having a spout portion projecting axially outwardly thereof
- said spout portion presenting an inner wall surface defininga channel through which a stream of liquid may flow and terminating in a pouring lip curving away from the axis of the body and over which the stream of liquid issues in contact therewith;
- a narrow, blade-like tongue having an inner portion extending axially of said channel and defining an upraised rib along said inner wall surface of the spout portion and having an outer portion projecting outwardly beyond said pouring lip and curving away from the axis of the body to terminate in a tip disposed in axially spaced relation to said lip so as to be located within the stream of liquid issuing over the lip.
