Definitions

  • Cap for a container containing a substance which attracts insects
  • the present invention relates to a cap for a container having a neck and containing a substance, particularly a liquid, which attracts insects.
  • bottles are filled with a substance which is attractive to insects, and are then positioned, by being hung on tree branches for example, in desired places. The insects are thus attracted by the substance contained in the bottles and, having entered the bottles, remain trapped inside them.
  • the object of the present invention is a cap having the characteristics stated in the following claims .
  • the cap according to the present invention can be fixed by the selective engagement means - preferably made in the form of circumferentially spaced protuberances which protrude transversely from the end wall - to the neck of a bottle filled with the desired attractive substance, and is thus associated with the bottle in a durable and stable way.
  • the end wall and the side wall, if present, of the cap prevent raindrops from falling into the bottle, while insects can enter it, when attracted by the substance contained therein, by passing through the interstice present, for example, between at least one free portion of the rim of the neck of the bottle and the end wall of the cap.
  • the cap When the attractive substance is spent, the cap can be removed from the neck of the bottle to allow the bottle to be refilled, and can then be replaced on the neck.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view from below of a cap according to the invention
  • Figure 2 is a plan view from below of the cap of Figure
  • Figure 3 is a sectional view through the line III-III of Figure 2 of the cap according to the invention
  • Figure 4 is a perspective view of the cap according to the invention fixed on the neck of a. bottle
  • Figures 5 and 6 are perspective views, similar to Figure 1, of respective further embodiments of caps according to the invention
  • Figure 7 is a lateral elevation of yet another embodiment of the cap according to the invention, screwed on to the neck of a bottle
  • Figure 8 is a sectional view of the cap taken through the line VIII-VIII of Figure 7
  • Figure 9 is a sectional view of the cap taken through the line IX-IX of Figure 8.
  • a cap 10 for a container - such as a bottle 12 with a neck 14 - containing a substance which attracts insects comprises an end wall 16 and an outer lateral wall 18.
  • the end wall 16 has a circular plan and a curved profile with the convexity facing downwards.
  • the lateral wall 18 extends transversely from the outer edge of the end wall 16 and has a truncated conical sbape .
  • Three protuberances 20 extend transversely from the median portion of the end wall 14 radially inside the lateral wall 18, and are positioned at equal distances from each other in a circumferential arrangement .
  • the total height of the protuberances 20 is greater than that of the lateral wall 18, so that they project below the lateral wall.
  • Each protuberance 20 has a flattened oblong shape and has a thickened proximal portion 22 adjacent to the end wall 16 and a distal portion 24 whose cross section is smaller than that of the proximal portion 22.
  • a groove 26 extending in the circumferential direction is formed on the inner face of each distal portion 2 .
  • each protuberance 20 is associated with a corresponding reinforcing rib 28 which extends radially outwards.
  • Each rib 28 extends radially between tlie proximal portion 22 of the associated protuberance 20 and the facing portion of the inner surface of the outer lateral wall 18.
  • the cap 10 also comprises means of suspension made in the form of a ring 30 which protrudes externally from the end wall 16 on the opposite side from the protuberances 20.
  • t ie cap 10 is fixed to the neck 14 of the bottle 12 filled with the desired attractive substance, and is thus selectively associated with the bottle in a durable and stable way.
  • the cap 10 is firmly fixed to the bottle 12, while corresponding interstices 34 remain open between portions of the rim of the neck 14 not engaged by the protuberances 20 and the end wall 16.
  • the end wall 16 and side wall 18 prevent raindrops from falling into the bottle 12, enabling the bottle to be placed in the open without any particular restrictions .
  • the ring 30 enables the bottle 12 to be used in a suspended configuration if desired, e.g. from a branch of a tree. In any case, in embodiments of the invention which are not illustrated, it would be possible to use alternative means of suspending the bottle 12, such as a half-ring or the like.
  • Insects attracted by the substance contained in the bottle 12 can enter the bottle and remain trapped there, having passed through an annular gap 36 between the lateral wall 18 and the protuberances 20 and then through the interstices 34 between the portions of the rim of the neck 14 not engaged by the protuberances 20 and the end wall 16.
  • the cap 10 can be re-used any desired number of times. This is because, when the attractive substance contained in the bottle 12 is spent, the cap can be removed from the neck 14 by using again the properties of elastic stretchability apart of the protuberances 20. The bottle 12 can thus be refilled and then reclosed with the cap 10. Alternatively, the cap can be used to close another bottle .
  • Figure 5 shows a further embodiment of the invention, in which numbers identical to those used with reference to the preceding figures indicate identical or equivalent parts.
  • the only difference from the cap described previously consists in the fact that the outer lateral wall 18 is provided with a plurality of circumferentially spaced holes 38. These holes facilitate the entry of insects into the annular gap 36.
  • FIG. 6 shows a further embodiment of the invention, in which numbers identical- to those used with reference to the preceding figures indicate identical or equivalent parts.
  • the cap 10 does not have an outer lateral wall, and the function of protection from raindrops is essentially provided by the end wall 16.
  • the means of engagement with the bottle have a structure and functions similar to those described previously.
  • the cap according to this embodiment of the invention is simpler and more economical to produce than those described previously.
  • the selective engagement means comprise an inner lateral wall 20, which has a cylindrical tubular shape and a circular cross section and extends transversely from the median portion of the end wall 16.
  • the inner lateral wall 20 is positioned radially inside the outer wall 18, in such a way that an annular gap 36 is formed between the lateral walls 20 and 1.8.
  • the distal portion of the inner lateral wall 20 has an internal thread 40, while a plurality of apertures 34, spaced apart circumferentially, preferably at equal intervals, are formed in the proximal portion of this wall 20.
  • the total height of the inner lateral wall 20 is greater than that of the outer wall 18.
  • the means of suspension are made in the form of a half-ring 30 which protrudes externally from the end wall 16 on the opposite side from the selective engagement means.
  • the cap 10 can be screwed by means of the thread 40 of the wall 20 on to the neck 14 of the bottle 12 filled with the desired attractive substance, and is thus associated durably and stably with the bottle .
  • the walls 16 and 18 prevent raindrops from falling into the bottle 12, while insects can enter the bottle when attracted by the substance contained therein, by passing through the annular gap 36 and the apertures 34.
  • the cap 10 can be unscrewed from the neck 14 of the bottle 12 to enable the bottle to be refilled, and can then be screwed back on to it, or can be screwed on to another bottle.
  • the effects of the present invention extend to models providing the same utility and using the same innovative principle.
  • selective engagement means other than those illustrated and, when stretchable apart protuberances are used, it is possible for more than three of these to be present and/or for the protuberances to be positioned in an asymmetric way.
