Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to openings on metal cans, and, more particularly, to anti-rotation formed openings on metal cans into which fitments are inserted.
  • Metal cans having openings formed therein with plastic fitments inserted therein provide a pouring spout for convenient dispensing of the contents of the metal cans.
  • the plastic fitments also create a seal for the metal cans. This is especially helpful during distribution of the metal cans.
  • a can that comprises a top wall, an opening in the top wall, a substantially cylindrical surface located on the top wall and surrounding the opening, the cylindrical surface includes an outer portion and an inner portion, and a non-rotational surface positioned on the inner portion, the non-rotational surface resists rotation of a fitment positioned in the opening.
  • a can that comprises a top wall, a substantially cylindrical surface located on the top wall, the cylindrical surface having an inner portion and an outer portion, a sealing surface located on the outer portion of the cylindrical surface, and at least one substantially vertical component located on the inner portion of the cylindrical surface wherein the substantially vertical component resists rotation of a fitment positioned in the can.
  • a method of manufacturing a can comprises providing a top wall, forming an opening in the top wall, forming a cylindrical sealing surface surrounding the opening, forming a non-rotational surface adjacent the opening, and installing a fitment in the opening, wherein the non-rotational surface resists rotation of the fitment.
  • a can comprises a top wall, a non-circular opening in the top wall, a substantially cylindrical surface located on the top wall and surrounding the opening, the cylindrical surface includes an outer portion and an inner portion, a plastic fitment positioned in the opening, and at least one substantially vertical component that resists clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation of the fitment in the opening.
  • FIG. 1 is a bottom view of a can opening possessing an embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a top vie the can opening possessing an embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 1 Current can openings are formed by a simple punch and die where the sealing surface of the can becomes cylindrical, and the edge of the can opening is horizontal.
  • the present can comprises a formed opening in the can created by using a non-circular punch and die. This arrangement also forms a cylindrical sealing surface, but also creates an additional surface whose edge has vertical components that resist rotation of the fitment in the can. The edge could be formed to resist clockwise rotation, counter-clockwise rotation, or both. Any number of edges can be created with varying vertical components in order to more greatly resist rotation.
  • a can 10 (only a portion of which is shown) comprises a top wall 15, an opening 25 in the top wall 15.
  • the can 10 can be any sort of can of any material, but is typical made of metal.
  • the opening 25 can be non-circular. Although, other shapes are possible.
  • the can 10 includes a substantially cylindrical surface 35 that is located on the top wall 15 of the can 10. It should be understood that the cylindrical surface 35 may extend upward from the top wall 15 or may extend downward from the top wall 15 into the can 10.
  • the cylindrical surface 35 extends outward to the top wall 15.
  • the cylindrical surface 35 includes an inner portion 37 and an outer portion 39.
  • the outer portion 39 includes a sealing surface 41.
  • the sealing surface 41 permits a cap (not shown), or other closing, to be removably connected with the can 10.
  • the can 10 comprises a fitment (not shown), which can be made of any material. Typically, however, the fitment is made from a material that is softer than the material of the can 10, such as plastic. The fitment is positioned in the opening 25 in the top wall 15 of the can 10, adjacent the cylindrical surface 35.
  • the can 10 further includes at least one non-rotational surface 43 positioned on the inner portion 37 of the cylindrical surface 35.
  • the non- rotational surface 43 comprises at least one substantially vertical component 45 that resists rotation of the fitment. Any number of such vertical components 45 can be used.
  • the vertical components 45 substantially resist rotation of the fitment. More specifically, the vertical components 45 have at least one edge 47 that resists rotation of the fitment. This edge 47 can resist at least one of clockwise rotation and counterclockwise rotation of the fitment in the opening 25. Alternatively, the vertical components 45 can resist both clockwise and counterclockwise rotation of the fitment.
  • the opening 25 is typically formed on a metal can 10, such as a one- gallon metal rectangular or oblong can.
  • the at least one vertical component 45 of the edge 47 resists rotation of the plastic fitment (not shown) when a user attempts to remove a cap (not shown) that is connected to the plastic fitment, such as screwing it on the plastic fitment.
  • Any number of edges 47 can be used without deviating from the present invention.
  • any number of vertical components 45 can be used without deviating from the present invention.
  • the vertical components 45 can also vary in shape and size.
  • the vertical component 45 does not have to be perpendicular to the horizontal top 15 but can be of any non-horizontal angle.
  • the vertical component 45 can also be curved as opposed to a straight line shown in the drawings.
  • the opening 25 formed in a can 10 (only a portion of which is shown) is shown in the drawings.
  • the opening 25 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is formed by using a non-circular punch and die.
  • the can 10 is placed in a holder (not shown), which may or may not be a portion of the die, and the punch is lowered to create the opening 25.
  • the non-circular punch and die are used to form not only a cylindrical sealing surface 41, but also to create an additional surface whose edge 47 has vertical components 45 that resist rotation of the fitment in the can 10.
  • the edge 47 may be formed to resist clockwise rotation, counter-clockwise rotation, or both. Any number of edges 47 can be created with varying vertical components 45 in order to more greatly resist rotation.

Abstract

Certaines boîtes métalliques comprennent des ouvertures dans lesquelles sont insérés des accessoires en plastique permettant d'obtenir un bec verseur destiné à assurer une distribution pratique des contenus des boîtes métalliques. De nombreux agents chimiques sont transportés dans lesdites boîtes. Ces agents chimiques peuvent amener l'accessoire en plastique à gonfler et à se ramollir. Le gonflement produit une interférence avec le couvercle fileté et augmente le couple nécessaire pour retirer le couvercle et distribuer les contenus. De même, le ramollissement de l'accessoire dû à la présence d'agents chimiques transportés dans ce récipient provoque une réduction de la résistance à la rotation de l'accessoire dans l'ouverture formée de la boîte. L'invention concerne une boîte qui comprend : une paroi supérieure ; une ouverture dans la paroi supérieure ; une surface sensiblement cylindrique située sur la paroi supérieure et entourant l'ouverture, ladite surface cylindrique comprenant une partie extérieure et une partie intérieure ; et une surface antirotative positionnée sur la partie intérieure, ladite surface antirotative résistant à la rotation d'un accessoire positionné dans l'ouverture.
