Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A composite press on, pull-off closure cap for hermetically sealing and maintaining a vacuum in a container.
  • the cap is comprised of two parts, one part being an integrally formed, semi-rigid plastic fitment with a top including a lift or pull ring and with a depending skirt, and the second part being a relatively rigid, disc-shaped gasketed closure element.
  • the closure element is retained within the fitment and when the lift ring is pulled upwardly, shoulder means on the interior of the fitment engage with the peripheral edge of the closure element and carry it along with the fitment during removal.
  • the pull ring or lift ring is retained in inoperative condition by means of frangible connections until such time as it is desired to remove the closure cap.
  • frangible connections are readily broken and on further lifting and pulling the lift ring through its hinge connection to the remainder of the fitment serves to remove the cap.
  • the closure cap has thinned sections at the opposite ends of the hinge. During raising of the lift ring these thin sections are permanently stretched thereby accomplishing two functions. First, the stretching prevents breakage or tearing of the main part of the hinge. Second, the lift ring is prevented from returning or being restored to its original inoperative condition thereby giving the impression that the cap has not been tampered with and that the package has not previously been opened.
  • the invention relates to innovations and improvements in such composite closure caps comprising a semi-rigid plastic fitment in which is retained or trapped a relatively rigid closure element and having anintegrally hinged lift ring as a part of each fitment.
  • the lift ring is normally held in the plane of the top portion of the plastic fitment by means of frangible connections and in addition is permanently attached to the plastic fitment through a relatively wide integral hinge portion.
  • the object ofthe present invention generally stated is the provision of composite closure caps of the class described wherein once the frangible connections retaining the lift or pull rings in place are broken and lift rings pulled or lifted, thinned areas at one, and preferably both, ends of the hinge connection between the lift ring and remainder of the plastic fitment are readily and permanently stretched thereby preventing the sudden application of excessive removal forces from tearing or cracking the hinge and in addition preventing the lift rings from being restored to their original flattened condition so as to have the appearance of not having been utilized or tampered with.
  • FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a composite closure cap forming one embodiment of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a fragmentary view on enlarged scale taken on line 2*2 of FIG. 1 and showing the closure cap in seated sealing relationship on the mouth of a typical container;
  • FIG. 3 is a view also taken on line 2-2 of FIG. 1 but showing or illustrating the condition of the cap when the lift or pull ring has been raised;
  • FIG. 4 is a fragmentary top perspective view of the closure cap of FIG. 1 on a container and illustrating the operation of the composite closure cap of FIG. I;
  • FIG. 5 is a detailed sectional view taken on line 5-5 of FIG. 1.
  • a composite closure cap is indicated generally at 5 in seated vacuum-retaining condition on the rim of a container 6.
  • the composite closure cap 5 comprises an integrally formed, semi-rigid plastic outer fitment 7 in which is retained or trapped a relatively rigid disc-shaped gasketed closure element 8.
  • the relatively rigid, disc-shaped gasketed closure element 8 may be stamped from sheet metal such as tin plate or aluminum suitably enameled or coated on the interior and also usually on the exterior.
  • the closure element 8. has a central panel portion 10 which may include a raised button 11 which is flexed inwardly or downwardly as long as there is a vacuum on the interior of the package and which automatically snaps or flips upwardly when the vacuum is broken, this being a known feature in closure caps of this general type.
  • the central panel portion 10 of the closure element 8 includes a depressed annular groove 12 radially outwardly of which is an integrally formed gasket-receiving channel 13 lined with a sealing gasket 14 of known type, e.g.'fluxed plastisol. It will be seen from FIG. 2 that the gasket 14 provides hermetic sealing engagement with the top seal finish 15 on the rim of the container 6.
  • the outer wall of the gasket receiving channel 10 of the closure element 8 is formed by a downwardly depending skirt or circumferential flange 16 terminating in a trimmed edge 17.
  • the relatively rigid closure element 8 is retained or trapped with the plastic fitment 7.
  • the fitment 7 may be mass-produced by thermoforming from plastic sheet material such as high impact polyethylene. It will be understood however that the fitments may be formed from other plastic materials and by other techniques such as by injection molding.
  • the integrally formed fitment 7 includes a discontinuous top having an outer annular portion 18 surrounding in spaced relationship a lift or pull ring 20.
  • the pull or lift ring 20 has a tab 21 located diametrically opposite an integral hinge 22 interconnecting the lift ring 20 and the annular portion 18.
  • the annular portion 18 is suitably recessed at 22 so as to accommodate the tab 21.
  • the lift or pull ring 20 is non-permanently interconnected with the surrounding annular ring portion 18 by means of a plurality of spaced frangible connections 2323.
  • a skirt 24 Depending from the outer periphery of the annular portion 18 of the fitment 7 is a skirt 24 the bottom edge 25 of which preferably extends into close relationship with the shoulder portion 26 of the container 6.
  • the skirt 24 On its interior the skirt 24 has a plurality of circumferentially spaced inwardly projecting embossments 2727 (FIGS. 2 and 3) forming shoulder means having retention engagement with a bead 28 on the exterior of the neck of the container 6. Also on its interior and spaced above the emhossments 27 the skirt 24 is provided with a circumferential inwardly projecting rib 30 the upper annular surface 31 of which constitutes a shoulder for lifting engagement with the bottom trimmed edge 17 of the closure element 8 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the composite closure cap 5 may be considered to be known and to correspond rather closely, for example, to the composite closure cap shown and described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,690,499.
  • the composite closure cap 5 is improved with respect to the closure cap shown and described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,690,499 and similar known composite closure caps in respect to two thinned semi-circular areas of the fitment 7 which are indicated at 3232 (FIG. I).
  • the thinned areas 32 are generally semi-circular in shape and in vertical section they are substantially thinner than the adjoining plastic as indicated in FIGS. 2 and 5. It will be noted that these thinned areas 32 are located at the opposite ends of the hinge portion 22 and also extend partially into the annular portion 18 forming part of the top of the fitment.
  • the user places his or her thumb nail under the tab 21 and pries upwardlythereon so as to break the adjacent frangible connections 23-23 allowing a firmer grasp on the lift ring so that the remaining frangible connections 23 may be broken and the lift or pull ring 20 raised further so as to apply sufficient lifting force to remove the composite closure cap from the container 6.
  • This will require substantial upward lifting force it being necessary to first break the vacuum and thereafter to pull the retaining embossments 27 over the bead 28.
  • the thinned semi-circular areas 32 become permanently stretched as indicated in FIGS. 3 and 4 so that when the lift ring 20 is thereafter released it will no longer lie flatwise within the annular portion 18 even when pressed down but will remain somewhat lifted as shown in FIG. 4, for example. This will of course indicate to an observer the fact that the composite closure cap has been removed or at least the package has been tampered with.
  • the stretched condition of the thinned areas 32 also indicates that the closure has been removed or tampered with.
  • the thinned semi-circular areas 32 also serve another very important function. By reason of being thinned and located at opposite ends of the hinge portion 22, these areas yield first when the lift or pull ring 20 is raised. Even if a sudden jerk or lifting force is applied to the lift or pull ring 20, the initial portion thereofis dissipated in stretching the thinned areas 32. Furthermore, these thinned areas 32 tend to stretch and not to tear or crack. By so stretching they prevent the thick or main portion of the hinge 22 lying inwardly of the ends from being cracked or ripped.
  • thinned areas corresponding to areas 32 may be incorporated at opposite ends of the hinges in the composite closure caps shown and described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,460,701 and 3,656,648 as well as U.S. Pat. No. 3,690,499.
  • semi-circular configurations are satisfactory, other configurations for the thinned areas may be used such as triangular, rectangular, elliptical, etc. Also certain other minor changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
  • a composite press-on, pull-off closure cap for hermetically sealing and maintaining a vacuum in a container whereby the closure and container in combination provide a package which is readily openable by a consumer without'the use of tools
  • said composite closure having an integrally-formed, semi-rigid, plastic fitment with a top and a depending skirt and a relatively rigid, disc-shaped gasketed closure element retained within said fitment and having a continuous center panel terminating at the outer margin in a depending skirt or circumferential flange having a trimmed edge, said depending skirt of said fitment having interior shoulder means for lifting engagement with said trimmed edge, and said top of said fitment having an outer annular portion surrounding a lift ring joined to said annular portion'by a hinge portion and a plurality of spaced frangible connections, the improvement which comprises, having the plastic material from which said fitment is formed thinned in a relatively small area adjacent at least one end of said hinge portion where it joins said annular portion whereby on lifting said lift ring after said frangible
