Definitions
- the present invention relates to a capsule intended to be mounted in a cap for a neck or neck container intended for dispensing liquids or pasty products, in particular for bottles of mineral water and the corresponding cap and container.
- the cap provided with a capsule according to the present invention is intended to contain, in a hermetically sealed compartment of the container thus clogged, a substance or specific composition intended to be mixed with the contents of said container just before use or consumption. of the last.
- the plug of the present invention can in particular be used to plug plastic bottles commonly called plastics (for example PET) intended to contain all kinds of food liquids or not, more or less fluid, such as, for example, mineral water, fruit juice, milk drinks, etc. but also sauces or condiments (ketchup, mustard, vinaigrette ...) or non-food liquids (cleaning products, detergents ).
- a number of corks having compartments containing a substance, especially a food substance, intended to be added to the contents of the container which generally contains a beverage such as water or milk, for example the preparation of energy drinks or baby bottles.
- a first type among these known plugs has a capsule or tank sealed by a membrane or detachable tongue and fixed on the upper part of said plug fitted to a container.
- To add the substance contained in the tank to said container it is necessary to unscrew the cap, remove the membrane or tongue closing said tank to create an opening for said substance, to turn the cap to pour said substance into said container and finally , to screw the cap on said container to be able to shake it and thus mix the substance with the contents of the latter.
- the use of such a type of cap therefore requires many tedious steps, some of which, such as that of turning the cap to release the substance in said container, may require some dexterity to avoid pouring the substance next to this last.
- Another type of plug has a capsule or reservoir releasing a solid substance in the form of a tablet via a pressure exerted by a finger of the user on said capsule.
- this type of plug has sealing problems, being reminded that the contents of the container must not accidentally come into contact with the substance enclosed in the capsule.
- These problems are solved in this type of plug by the presence of a sealing cap attached to the neck of the container.
- the user to release the substance, first unscrews the cap to remove the cap, then puts the cap on the container and releases the tablet from the capsule by pressing on the latter .
- the user can remove the lid, while the cap is fixed on the container. In both cases, many tedious steps are needed again to release the substance.
- another disadvantage lies in the fact that the operculum of the capsule to release the substance works well only when the substance is in the form of tablets or pellets.
- the substance in the form of tablet or rigid tablet, is between a deformable upper membrane on which the pressure is exerted for releasing said substance, and a lower seal serving as sealing member.
- the lower lid is torn by the tablet when the user exerts pressure on the upper membrane.
- the rigidity of the cap is a critical parameter insofar as the latter must be both low enough to allow easy release of the substance (preferably whatever its state) and high enough to allow said operculum to resist. the pressure that can be exerted on the latter by the contents of the container when it is compressed during the handling steps of the container. Indeed, when the rigidity of the operculum is too low, ruptures occur. of it during the handling steps, and the substance accidentally mixes with the contents of the container.
- the pressure to be exerted by the user or consumer on the lid to release the substance must also be high, which can be disadvantageous for some people.
- this pressure transmitted to the operculum through the substance should be identical, regardless of the form and constitution of the substance.
- the force exerted on the elastic membrane is transmitted in a reduced manner to the lid and is not always sufficient to tear the latter in order to release the substance.
- the present invention aims to overcome at least some of the disadvantages of known capsules and caps caps and aims to provide a capsule and a cap to minimize the risk of accidental rupture of the lid to isolate the substance of the container content to which it must be added and allowing a frank and reproducible facilitated rupture of said seal by the user that is as independent as possible from the state or the physical constitution of said substance.
- the rupture of the sealed seal should ideally be for any type of substance to be added to the contents of the container, particularly in the case of partially filled capsules containing substances that do not always allow to transmit a part sufficient mechanical force exerted by the user able to break the seal seal.
- the cap according to the invention must be able to be used with little effort and little manipulation by one hand of the the opening should preferably not lead to the formation of spare parts.
- the present invention therefore relates to a sealed capsule consisting essentially of a deformable membrane sealed at its base by a sealable operculum so as to define a sealed volume for containing at least one substance between said deformable membrane and said seal, characterized in that it has at least one integral breaking means of said pierceable cap capable of tearing it for release of an effective quantity of substance (s) following a sufficient deformation of said deformable membrane due to an external mechanical force exerted on the latter.
- a cap for a neck or neck container for the distribution of liquids or pasty products in particular for mineral water bottle, characterized in that it consists essentially of a base intended to be fixed on said container and closing said container via a capsule according to the invention reported in a sealed manner on said base, the deformable membrane of said capsule being itself covered by a rigid protective cover resting on an annular base piece attached to said base, the lower base of said capsule being formed by the pierceable cap, a sealed effective volume filled with at least one substance intended to be added to the contents of the container before consumption being thus defined between the deformable membrane and said cap of said capsule, an effective amount of substance (s) being released into the contents of the container during a rupture of the lid due to sufficient deformation of the deformable membrane.
- a neck or neck container for dispensing liquids or pasty products, in particular mineral water, characterized in that it comprises a capsule according to the present invention.

- the sealed capsule 1 consists essentially of a deformable membrane 2 sealed at its base by a sealable cap 3 so as to define a sealed volume V for contain at least one substance S between said deformable membrane 2 and said lid 3 is characterized in that it has at least one integral breaking means 4 of said pierceable lid 3 able to tear for a release of an effective amount of substance ( s) following a sufficient deformation of said deformable membrane 2 due to an external mechanical force exerted on the latter.
- the capsule 1 according to the present invention is characterized in that the breaking means 4 is made in the form of a pre-cut 5 of the lid 3, namely at least a point or a preferred breaking line of the latter.
- the pre-cutout 5 is made in the form of a set of preferential rupture lines arranged in the form of a star, preferably centered on said cover 3. In this way, an opening is obtained by tearing the operculum 3 which is the easiest and reproducible possible.
- pre-cut 5 cross-shaped has been shown for guidance in Figure 2, but other geometries may also be suitable.
- the pre-cut 5 itself can be performed by any method usually used, known per se, including laser cutting, stamping, etc.
- the deformable membrane 2 is made of PVC, a resilient material, allowing the user to deform sufficiently, for example with a finger, to succeed in breaking the lid 3 and thus release the substance or substances S in the content of the container R.
- the shape of the deformable membrane 2 itself may be unspecified even if an overall shape of the type of that of a bell, preferably a bell whose apex is flat, for example disk-shaped, oval, etc., may be preferred.
- the deformable membrane 2 may comprise at least one deformation means preferential of the latter made in the form of a point, a line or a preferred deformation surface, for example, in the form of a recess in the form of a groove portion of substantially semi-cylindrical section located on the side of said deformable membrane 2.
- This means makes it possible to create a point, a line or an initiating surface and facilitating the deformation of the remainder of the deformable membrane 2 to achieve the desired objective, namely a concentration of the forces leading to a sufficiently marked deformation of said deformable membrane 2 which makes it possible to provide sufficient tearing or rupture of the lid 3 in order to allow the passage of the substance or substances S contained in the sealed volume V and intended to be added to the contents of the container provided with the capsule 1 according to the invention.
- the user's thumb or finger first pressing the deformable membrane 2 at the location where the preferential deformation means (s) are located (which are located at a convenient location of access for the consumer, for example at a level close to the vertex), initiates a relatively easier deformation of the deformable membrane 2 which propagates to the remaining, more rigid surfaces, dragging them into the deformation movement whose magnitude quickly becomes sufficient to cause a significant opening opening for the substance or substances S in the pierceable lid 3.
- the deformable membrane 2 is made of a flexible or elastic material, such as a natural rubber, it is not excluded that said membrane returns to its original shape when the pressure exerted by the finger of the user ceases, thus preserving the original aesthetic appearance of the cap.
- the material or materials used for the production of the capsule 1, the plug and more particularly that or those used for the production of the deformable membrane 2 and the operculum 3 must be chemically and physically compatible with the nature.
- liquid or pasty content of the container R thus clogged, respectively with the substance or substances S contained in the sealed volume V delimited by said deformable membrane 2 and said lid 3.
- the container R plugged by the cap according to the invention is intended to contain a liquid or pasty food product, it will also be necessary to ensure that the aforementioned materials are food grade and that the clogged product marketed meets the applicable hygiene standards.
- a single operation is sufficient, after the opening of the protective cover 19 (see for example Figures 18 and 19), to transfer the substance or substances S in the container R.
- FIG. 19 illustrates a cap provided with a capsule of the type of that of FIG. 1 when the protective cover 19 has been opened, the deformable membrane 2 depressed sufficiently so that the cover 3 is torn, the substance or substances S falling then in said container R.
- the index returns the protective cover 19 to the base part 20 until the "click" closing.
- the capsule 1 according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises at least one intermediate piece 6 provided between said deformable membrane 2 and said lid 3, said intermediate piece 6 having at least one breaking means 4 of said deformable membrane 2 which can be activated during a sufficient deformation of the latter.
- a capsule 1 according to the invention made according to a second embodiment is characterized in that said at least one intermediate piece 6 is made in the form of a ring 7 disposed between the deformable membrane 2, preferably substantially bell-shaped and more preferably whose apex is flattened, and the seal 3 sealing said volume V, said ring 7 having, as a means of rupture 4, at least a portion of surface 8 delimited in said ring 7 so as to form a valve hinged relative to said ring 7, said valve being able to pivot towards the lid 3 in order to pierce it during a sufficient deformation of said deformable membrane 2.
- the capsule 1 according to the invention can be characterized in that said at least one intermediate piece 6 is made in the form of a ring 7 disposed between the deformable membrane 2, preferably substantially bell-shaped and more preferably whose apex is flattened, and the seal 3 sealing said volume V, said ring 7 having, as a means of rupture 4, several surface portions 8, 8 ', preferably interconnected by at least one bridge 10 and delimited in said ring 7 so as to form, for each surface portion 8, 8 ', a valve hinged relative to said ring 7, each valve being rotatable, after rupture of the bridge or bridges 10 which connect them, towards the cover 3 in order to pierce it during a sufficient deformation of said deformable membrane 2.
- the end of the breaking means 4 opposite the hinge 9 of the pivoting valve formed or the fastening of the said breaking means 4 on the intermediate piece 6 may be provided with a thin tie or bridge 10 'acting as a breaking bridge which secures said means 4 as the plug is not actually used.
- This bridge 10 ' also imposes on the user, when he wishes to tear the lid 3, to apply a pressure or force on the arched element 15 which is sufficient to break said bridge 10' and which, at the same time time and because of its high intensity and its abrupt application, makes it possible to break or cut more clearly or more mentally of the operculum 3, compared to a progressive rupture by application of a force that grows as and when measuring, thus releasing all the substance S contained in the capsule 1.
- said ring 7 and said surface portions 8, 8 ' are made by injecting a material synthetic, preferably of polyethylene, at or in the immediate vicinity of or bridges 10, 10 'breaking.
- the capsule 1 according to the invention is further characterized in that at least a portion of the free contour of said surface portions 8, 8 'has one or more sharp-edged portions 11, of the tooth type, facilitating piercing of the operculum 3.
- the shape of the pivoting valve and / or the breaking means 4 and the number of these are determined according to the tear resistance provided by the lid 3 which is usually made in the form of an aluminum film plasticized or the like.

- This configuration allows the user to deform the deformable membrane 2 to a level that can go from a point close to the base 18 (and facing said bearing surface 14) to a point near the vertex of said deformable membrane 2, the direction of the applied force then being substantially vertical and more convenient to exercise by a finger or the thumb of the consumer.
- a seventh embodiment provides that the intermediate piece 6, provided between said deformable membrane 2 and said lid 3, is made in the form of a peripheral ring 7 on which is supported locally, through a portion of hinge 9, an arcuate element 15 substantially conforming and at least locally the shape of the deformable membrane 2 in its initial state and the free end 16 is formed in the form of at least one projecting element 12 or pointed towards the operculum 3, a useful bearing surface 14 being provided on said arcuate element 15 which is capable of transmitting an external mechanical force exerted on said deformable membrane 2 by the user which is sufficient to cause the tilting of the projecting element (s) 12 end to obtain a rupture of the lid 3 releasing an effective amount of substance (s) S in the contents of the container R.
- the bearing surface 14 provided on the arched element 15 has on its inner face facing the lid 3, a vertical wall portion 17 or substantially vertical also directed towards the lid 3, a surface auxiliary support 14 'assists the transmission of the external mechanical force exerted on said deformable membrane 2 by the user to cause said rupture of the operculum 3.
- peripheral ring 7 and the surface portion or portions 8, 8 'and / or the portion or portions of hinge 9 and / or the arcuate element 15 are made in one piece, preferably by injection of a synthetic material.
- One or more grooves may thus be provided in which the thickness of the lid 3 has been voluntarily reduced, such as by laser ablation or a similar method or equivalent.
- a first solution consists in ensuring that the lid 3 is fixed directly on the deformable membrane 2, preferably at their common circular periphery where said lid 3 and said deformable membrane 2 contact overlappingly.
- FIGS. 1, 18, 19 and 22 This first possibility is exemplified by FIGS. 1, 18, 19 and 22.
- the arched element 15 and the ring 7 are made in one piece in the form of a single piece which can be inserted freely (without welding) in the hollow formed by the deformable membrane 2 during the manufacture of the capsule 1.
- the cover 3 is then directly welded to the corresponding peripheral portion of said deformable membrane 2 , the arched element 15 being trapped between them without being fixed there.
- the manufacturing process of the capsule 1 according to this embodiment is therefore advantageously simplified.
- the cover 3 is fixed directly on the lower face 6 'of the intermediate piece 6, in particular on the lower face 6' of the periphery of the ring 7 forming said intermediate piece 6, which then excludes direct contact between said lid 3 and the deformable membrane 2 (see Figures 3 to 17, 20 and 21).

- the deformable membrane 2 and the protective cover 19 may both be made of an elastically deformable material, substantially in the form of two half-spheres, the radius of the half-sphere of the protective cover 19 being slightly less than that the half-sphere of the deformable membrane 2, said half-sphere of the protective cover 19 being provided with at least one meridian notch 19 'extending from the base of said half-sphere over part of the height of that -this.
- This embodiment of the protective cover 19 is particularly advantageous because the latter does not need to be molded in the open position, thus considerably reduces the size of the mold and increases its strength, which allows to reduce substantially the manufacturing cost of the protective cover 19.
- the fact of not molding the protective cover 19 in the open position also preserves the integrity of the hinge 35 which can be weakened during molding in the open position.
