  • a piece (2) in the form of a half ring is fixed on the lower edge of the cover (1). This piece rotates with the cover on the support formed in the outer seal (4) and in turn rotates the other half of the ring (5) in the same direction and at the same speed of rotation of the cover (3).
  • the outer seal (4) is a tubular part comprising two parts; a thread (3) for adjusting the cover (1), and a tubular body of larger diameter which is fixed to the outside of the nozzle, preventing the internal mechanisms of the safety device from being tampered with or manipulated.
  • the outer seal (4) has a rail with a groove (12) that allows the passage of the vane (6).
  • the two halves of ring (2) and (5) move rotationally on this rail.
  • the ring in half (5) is coupled to the part (2) so that when opening the cover (1) a movement of this piece is generated on the outer seal (4), to this ring comprises a vane (6) that passes through the outer seal (4), this vane also rotates with the radial movement of the lid (1) squeezing the vial (8) against the support (9).
  • an internal security seal (7) is located inside the external seal (4).
  • This part is composed of a tubular plastic seal that goes from the thread of the cap (3) to the nozzle (11).
  • This seal can be formed from several tubes of different diameters this when the diameters of the thread (3) and the nozzle (1) are different.
  • the bulb (8) has the main function of storing the ink, this element is located between the external (4) and internal (7) seals.
  • the latter insulates the vial completely from the inside of the bottle where the product is, while the outer seal (4) isolates it from the outside.
  • the vial has a valve at its bottom that connects the inside of the vial with the capillary (10). When the vial is pressed between the vane (6) and the support (9), the valve is opened and the ink is poured into the capillary (10).
  • the vial rests on a support (9) which contains the vial so that the vane (6) can squeeze it, for this, the support that generally has an annular shape, has a perpendicular protuberance that retains the vial so that the vane generates enough pressure to burst the valve so that the ink descends through the capillary (10).
  • the capillary (10) is formed as a blow on the nozzle (11) that is made to the thickness of the glass functioning as a double wall.
  • the volume of the tube is similar to the same volume as that of the vial so that the ink contained in the vial drops completely to the end of the tube.
  • FIG. 3 shows the diagram of the second modality, which basically includes the same elements mentioned above, but difference in that on the nozzle (11) two capillaries (10) are formed instead of just one. These are preferably located diametrically opposite, that is, at 180 °, however other locations can be used whenever the structure allows.
  • the half ring (5) remains unchanged, as does the internal seal (7).
  • Other modalities with multiple capillaries can be structured, for example if 4 marking points are required, 4 capillaries (10) located 90 ° from each other can preferably be formed on the nozzle glass (11). In this case, 4 vanes (6) two located on the ring (2) of the cover (1), and the other two on the half ring (5) would be needed. Likewise, 4 slots (12) in the internal seal (4) and 4 protuberances on the annular support piece (9) would be required. Following this methodology, the number of capillaries (10) required on the nozzle (11) can be located.
  • the capillary is formed over the entire periphery of the nozzle (11) of the bottle.
  • the capillary (10) now has a circular shape shaped as a complete groove on the glass of the nozzle. In this case, the entire nozzle is impregnated with ink once the lid of the container is opened.
  • the mechanism for inkjet is similar to the mechanism used for the modality described for a single capillary. As can be seen in Figure 6, both the cover (1) the external seal (4), the internal seal (7), the half ring (5) and the annular support (9) remain unchanged. The difference of this modality is that once pressure is exerted on the valve of the ampoule (8), its contents are poured evenly over the entire periphery of the nozzle (11), which results in a more noticeable indication for the user.
  • nozzles (11) with capillaries of different shapes For example, a nozzle (11) with a capillary (10) curved to the left is shown in Figure 7a. Likewise, in figure 7b the nozzle (1) is shown but in this case the capillary (10) was made curved to the right. In this case, the drive mechanism is equal to the mechanism of the modality set forth in Figures 1 and 2. Likewise, nozzles with multiple curved capillaries can be formed to the left, to the right or combinations thereof. In the case of multiple capillaries, the structure is similar to that set forth above in relation to Figures 3 and 4.
  • the nozzle is manufactured by the emptying process using a mold preferably with rotational geometry.
  • Figure 8 shows the views of the mold
  • the mold comprises a pin (14) which is molded perpendicular to the surface of the mold so that when pouring the plastic or glass material, the pin establishes the capillary space.
  • Figure 9 shows the planes of a mold (13) which comprises two pins
  • the nozzle formed in this case comprises two capillaries.
  • the location of the pins can vary and as will be seen, the desired number of pins can be incorporated in order to obtain the desired number of capillaries.
  • Figure 10 shows the mold scheme (13) for the circular capillary nozzle.
  • a circular ring (15) perpendicular to the surface of the mold (13) is used.
  • the ring (15) establishes a space in the nozzle on which the ink will be poured once the bottle is opened.

Abstract

Le système destiné à éviter l'adultération et le ré-emballage de conteneurs de verre, de plastique ou d'autre matière de la présente invention est un dispositif qui comprend une double paroi dans le verre, et une série de mécanismes qui font que la paroi double reste tâchée au moment exact où la bouteille est ouverte. Le principal avantage du dispositif réside dans le fait que l'encre se répand dans une paroi double du verre, ainsi la personne peut voir en temps réel si la bouteille provient de l'entreprise et si elle a été ouverte avant ingestion du produit contenu dans le récipient. Un autre avantage est que l'encre est totalement isolée du produit interne par une des paroi de verre, ainsi la composition du produit n'est pas altérée par les composants de l'encre de sécurité.
