Definitions
- the present invention relates to a can lid.
- the invention also relates to a can and a method for producing a can lid.
- Beverage cans with a cylindrical container made of aluminum or tinplate are known.
- a lid is crimped on to which a metal tab is riveted as an opener.
- a scratched oval line is broken open and part of the lid is pressed into the inside of the can to reveal a drinking opening.
- the disadvantage here is that the beverage can cannot be closed again. As a result, a drink in it quickly becomes stale. In addition, the beverage can easily be spilled during further transport.
- Resealable can lids are also known.
- EP 2 614 010 B1 describes a can lid in which a closure element on the underside can be pivoted between a closed position and an open position by an actuation element on the top side.
- the closure element and the actuating element are large components, which is disadvantageous when filling.
- the can lid is so heavy and expensive.
- the rotary movement also requires high actuation forces and places an unfavorable load on the components, for example with a strong shear force.
- the object of the present invention is to improve a can lid, which is reclosable. Furthermore, it is an object of the invention to improve a method for producing a reclosable can lid and a reclosable can.
- a first aspect relates to a can lid for a can.
- the can preferably be designed as a beverage can and / or as a storage container for bulk material.
- the can lid can have at least one lid mirror, which is designed to limit an upper side of the can, preferably by crimping an outer circumferential edge of the lid mirror with a side wall of the can.
- the lid mirror can correspond, for example, to a lid of conventional beverage cans.
- the cover mirror can be made of aluminum or white bleach, optionally with a plastic coating, for example as corrosion protection.
- the lid mirror can have at least one pouring opening through which a substance in the can can be poured out.
- the pouring opening is preferably always provided in the lid mirror.
- the pouring opening is not, as is usual with beverage cans, only opened by a metal tab when it is opened for the first time.
- the can lid can have an actuating element which is arranged on an upper side of the lid mirror, which faces away from an interior of the can when the can lid is attached to it.
- the can lid can have a closure element, which is arranged on an underside of the lid mirror, which faces an interior of the can when the can lid is attached to it.
- the closure element can be displaceable in a substantially translatory manner along the cover mirror by means of the actuating element between a closed position in which the closure element closes the pouring opening in a fluid-tight and / or gas-tight manner and an open position in which the pouring opening is at least partially exposed.
- the translational movement is very intuitive, places little stress on a connection between the closure element and the actuating element and requires low actuating forces.
- the closure element is preferably not flat on its lower and / or upper side.
- the closure element can have one or more cutouts or one or more projecting areas on its lower and / or upper side.
- Such a recess can be formed, for example, in the area of a connection to the actuating element.
- several ribs can be provided on the underside.
- the closure element and the actuating element are fastened to one another by means of a connection.
- the connection is preferably fixed and / or its length is not variable. In other words, the distance between the actuating element and the closure element in the region of the connection is preferably fixed and / or not variable. This enables, among other things, an automatic adjustment of the contact pressure of the closure element to the lid, which is discussed in more detail below.
- the closure element and the actuating element are preferably fastened to one another by means of a connection which does not penetrate the closure element. This way, the contents of the can are reliably protected. In particular, undesirable leakages can be excluded with the lid closed.
- a connection is advantageous since a through opening for connection can only be sealed with great effort and tends to leak under pressure.
- a welded joint is particularly suitable because a small amount of material is required.
- the actuation element and the closure element can be attached to one another using ultrasound or friction welding, in particular when using plastics to produce the closure element and / or the actuation element.
- connection When the closure element is moved from the closed position into the open position, the connection can be moved along a guide slot in the cover mirror.
- the connection in particular a welding area, can thus be arranged in a plane defined by the cover mirror.
- the connection can penetrate the cover mirror, that is to say it can be arranged in a through opening of the cover mirror.
- the connection can serve as a guide.
- the overall height of the can lid can be particularly flat, which results in advantages when filling. For example, the height determines how many can lids can be provided in a magazine. Thin reclosable can lids allow similar magazine fillings as non-reclosable can lids, which means that the production rate is the same or only slightly lower than that of non-reclosable cans on the same filling line.
- the actuating element can have a fastening section which has the connection to the closure element.
- the actuating element can advantageously be connected to the closure element without the design of others Sections of the actuator is restricted.
- other sections of the actuating element can be designed to be moved, in particular pivoted, relative to the fastening section and thus relative to the connection to the closure element.
- the actuating element can have a locking section, by means of which the actuating element is locked in the closed position on the cover mirror at least before an initial adjustment from the closed position to the open position.
- the lock can be used to provide a transport lock. With the locking an unwanted opening of the box or an adjustment of the closure element from the closed position to the open position can be reliably prevented.
- the locking section can also be designed as a tamper-evident feature, which can indicate to a user that the can lid has been opened for the first time. This ensures a hygienically perfect can content.
- the actuating element can have a grip section which is designed for gripping for the purpose of adjustment between the open position and the closed position. The grip section can thus be designed independently of the locking section and / or the fastening section, as a result of which this can be particularly ergonomic. This makes it easier to operate, i.e. close and open, the can lid.
- the fastening section can be connected to the handle section and / or to the locking section via a first joint which has a first joint axis.
- the locking section can be connected to the handle section and / or to the fastening section via a second joint which has a second joint axis. This enables the movement of the handle section to be coupled to the locking section. For example, pivoting the handle section into an actuating position can simultaneously cause the locking section to pivot, so that a locking is released.
- a movement of the grip section can be decoupled from the locking section in a certain pivoting range. For example, the grip section can be raised slightly without the locking section being lifted as well. This can break a seal of authenticity, for example. In addition, an unintentional release of the locking device can be avoided.
- the lid mirror preferably has an outer diameter of at least 4.5 cm, at least 5 cm or at least 5.5 cm.
- the outer dimensions of the lid mirror, apart from through openings, can correspond to a standardized lid mirror of beverage cans, in particular a B64 or CDL lid mirror.
- the B64 cover mirror can be of the type 200, 202, 204, 206 or 209, for example.
- the CDL lid mirror can be of type 200 or 202, for example.
- the cover mirror can be essentially flat and / or round, preferably circular.
- the cover mirror can have a circumferential bead, which increases its stability and helps in forming the folded edge.
- the lid mirror can also be called a shell.
- All metallic parts of the can lid are preferably coated with plastic or covered with a plastic film on the flat side facing a storage space of the can, preferably also on the flat side facing away. This serves to protect against corrosion and to protect the substance stored in the can. For example, dissolving of metal by a liquid in the can can be prevented in this way. In this way, for example, it can also be prevented that metal particles get into a drink.
- Such a coating can be dispensed with in the case of parts which are formed from plastic. As a result, these parts are inexpensive to manufacture, robust and easy to recycle.
- respective plastic parts can consist of only one material.
- the closure element can be essentially flat and / or round
- the can for which the can lid is provided is preferably intended for storing a drink, a soup or a bulk material.
- the drink may contain fibers such as pulp in an orange juice.
- the bulk material can be a spice, for example. Soup can, for example, have piece goods such as pasta, pieces of meat, etc.
- the pouring opening is preferably large enough to be able to pour it out.
- the closure element can open a pouring opening in the open position, which is larger than solid bodies in the can.
- the pouring opening can be a through opening from an interior to the outside of the can.
- a cross-sectional area of the pouring opening is preferably at least 1.5 cm 2 , more preferably at least 1.8 cm and very preferably at least 2 cm.
- the pouring opening preferably has an oval, circular or crescent shape.
- An edge region of the pouring opening which is front in the longitudinal direction of the guide slot and a rear area in the longitudinal direction of the guide slot, is preferably arcuate and / or curved. Both a front edge area and a rear edge area are preferably curved in the same direction.
- the cover mirror at the edge region of the pouring opening, on which the guide slot is arranged preferably forms two tongues projecting into the pouring opening. Through these tongues, the connection can be made in a foremost position of the closure element.
- the guide slot can be a through opening in the cover mirror.
- the guide slot is preferably designed as an elongated opening.
- a width of the guide slot can be made substantially constant over its length.
- the guide slot can specify the translational movement of the closure element and the actuating element between the closed position and the open position. At least a partial area of the closure element and / or the actuating element can be guided through the guide slot, for example in that this partial area bears against an edge of the cover mirror delimiting the guide slot.
- Respective lateral walls of the guide slot which preferably form a radially inner edge of the cover mirror and / or are an edge of the cover mirror, can therefore form a guide.
- the pouring opening and / or the guide slot are preferably punched out. It can be punched through areas in the lid mirror.
- the closure element can seal the interior from the pouring opening in the closed position, for example by means of a seal and / or by pressing it onto the cover mirror. This pressing can be effected by a pretension and / or the connection to the actuating element.
- the actuating element can move together with the closure element, that is to say also preferably guided essentially translationally along the cover mirror. Through their connection, for example through the welded connection, the actuating element and the closure element are permanently connected to one another during normal use. When used as intended, such as opening and closing the can, it is preferably not provided that the actuating element and the closure element are separated from one another.
- connection can be designed for this purpose, the actuating element and the closure element to hold on the lid mirror.
- the connection is preferably under a prestress.
- the actuating element can be cambered by the pretension.
- the crowning is preferably designed in one direction, which is reduced by an increased internal pressure and / or pressing on the actuating element. This makes opening easier.
- the closure element In the closed position, the closure element preferably covers the pouring opening and the guide slot in a gas-tight and / or fluid-tight manner.
- the closure element preferably extends further over the lid mirror as a pouring opening and a guide slot.
- Respective outer edges of the closure element are preferably arranged radially outside respective through openings in the cover mirror in the closed position.
- a diameter and / or a length of the closure element in particular a diameter and / or a length of an area surrounded by a seal of the closure element, is preferably greater than a length between a front point of the pouring opening, in particular an apex of the pouring opening, and an opposite rear one End of the guide slot.
- the actuating element preferably extends further over the lid mirror as a pouring opening and guide slot together, in particular in the closed position.
- the actuating element In the closed position, the actuating element preferably covers the pouring opening and the guide slot. This can prevent contamination from accumulating on the closure element, in the guide slot and / or in the pouring opening.
- the closure element is preferably designed such that it completely overlaps the pouring opening and / or the guide slot in the closed position. In the open position, the closure element releases at least 50%, preferably at least 70% and more preferably at least 90%, of the area of the exit opening.
- the contents of the can are therefore directly accessible through the surface, for example via a straw. That is, a straight straw can be passed through the exit opening in the entire non-overlapping area along the line of sight (vertical direction of the can) without bending or kinking. This corresponds to the manner known to the consumer with conventional beverage cans. This can also make it easier to dispense liquids with fibers or piece goods.
- the top of the can lid and / or respective parts can also be referred to as the outside.
- the underside can also be referred to as the inside.
- Actuating element at least partially formed by a projection on the closure element and / or the actuating element.
- This projection extends at least partially through the guide slot, for example in the open position and / or in the closed position.
- the projection preferably extends at least partially through the guide slot in the open position and in the closed position.
- the lead can also serve as part of the tour. In addition, this preferably provides a securing of the actuating element against rotation.
- the projection In the closed position, the projection can also at least partially extend through the pouring opening.
- the grip section is preferably between a stowed position in which the grip section is essentially parallel to the cover mirror and / or the
- Fastening section is arranged, and an actuating position in which the handle section for adjustment between the open position and the closed position can be gripped.
- the handle section is preferably pivotable upward, in particular essentially pivotable upward only from its stowed position.
- the handle section can be pivoted from the stowed position into the actuating position, preferably against the direction of displacement, in which the closure element can be displaced from the closed position into the open position.
- the stacking height of the can lid when filling is particularly low, but the handle section is still easy to grip when pressed.
- the grip section is preferably flat and, in the stowed position in the direction perpendicular to the cover mirror, is less than 3 mm, preferably less than 2 mm, thick.
- An upper side of the handle section is preferably essentially flat. In the stowed position, the upper side of the fastening section and the upper side of the handle section essentially form a plane. When the handle portion is in the stowed position, the actuator can be substantially planar. When moving from the stowed position to the actuating position, the handle section is preferably pivoted upwards. In particular, a rear end region of the handle section, which is the most distant from the pouring opening, is pivoted upward. In the stowed position, the underside of the handle section is preferably spaced at least in sections from the top of the cover mirror. As a result, the grip section can easily be raised with a finger, for example by means of the fingernail.
- the underside of the handle section is preferably at least in sections, and preferably completely, spaced from the top of the cover mirror.
- the grip section can thereby be at least partially encompassed, for example with two fingers, so that force can be exerted in a direction parallel to the top of the cover mirror.
- a pivoting of the handle section can be a folding up, preferably folding up by an angle of at least 30 °, preferably at least 45 °, particularly preferably at least 60 °.
- the grip section is preferably pivoted upward from the closed position into the open position against the direction of movement of the actuating element and / or the closure element.
- the grip section can be designed to be pivoted about the first hinge axis for adjustment between the stowed position and the actuating position relative to the fastening section.
- the joint facilitates the actuation of the actuating element, in particular the pivoting of the handle section.
- the closure element and / or the actuating element are preferably each formed from a plastic.
- the closure element and / or the actuating element can each consist of a plastic.
- the two joints and respective sections of the actuating element can thus be manufactured in a particularly simple manner, in particular in one piece in an injection molding process.
- the closure element can thus withstand a can content without additional measures, such as coatings.
- the can lid can be particularly light.
- the first joint and / or the second joint are preferably designed as a film hinge. Accordingly, the two joints can also be referred to as the first film hinge and the second film hinge.
- Film hinges are particularly easy to manufacture for plastic parts, in particular in one piece with other sections.
- the film hinge can be formed by an area in the actuating element with a smaller overall thickness, in particular in the form of a notch, which can be produced, for example, by injection molding, embossing or scratching.
- a film hinge is robust, but requires low actuation forces for the relative pivoting of the respective sections connected to it.
- the film hinge can also have the advantage that it permanently deforms and the handle section remains in the actuating position after pivoting against gravity.
- the first joint is preferably formed by a notch which extends downward from an upper surface of the actuating element into the actuating element.
- An initial position can thereby be defined, in which the grip section extends essentially parallel to the cover mirror.
- a region of the underside of the handle section, which is adjacent to the first joint can form a plane with the adjoining region of the underside of the fastening section via the first joint.
- a notch can be a particularly simple form of a film hinge.
- the two notch surfaces of the first joint on the upper side of the actuating element can also define an actuating position of the handle section and / or a maximum pivoting angle relative to the fastening section. In this position, the two notch surfaces lie against each other. The two notch surfaces can thus form a stop on the first joint. In the case of notch surfaces which abut one another, the respective actuation forces can be supported particularly well and directed to the closure element, as a result of which the can lid is particularly robust.
- the second joint is preferably formed by a notch which extends upwards from a lower surface of the actuating element into the actuating element. This allows a locking position to be defined in which the locking section extends essentially parallel to the cover mirror. In this position, an area of the upper side of the locking section, which is adjacent to the second joint, can form a plane with the adjoining area of the upper side of the handle section via the second joint.
- a notch can be a particularly simple form of a film hinge.
- the two notch surfaces of the second joint on the underside of the actuating element can also define a coupling position of the locking section or a maximum pivoting angle relative to the handle section. In this position, the two notch surfaces lie against each other.
- the two notch surfaces can thus form a stop for the second joint.
- a pivoting of the handle section in particular in the direction of its actuation position, preferably causes a coupled pivoting of the locking section. In this way, for example, a locking can be released and / or a tamper-evident seal of the can lid can be broken with a single swivel movement.
- pivoting of the handle section can be coupled to the locking section in such a way that pivoting the handle section in the direction of its actuating position also causes the locking section to pivot at least in a partial region of the pivoting movement.
- the locking section can thereby be adjusted, in particular pivoted, from a locking position in which the actuating element is locked in its closed position to a release position in which the locking is released.
- a reverse pivoting movement of the handle section into its stowed position preferably does not have the effect that the locking section is again automatically adjusted into its locking position.
- pivoting of the locking section can thus be at least partially decoupled from pivoting of the handle section.
- this form of coupling can be implemented simply by means of two film hinges and / or notches.
- the grip section can preferably be swiveled upward relative to the fastening section along the first hinge axis, in particular from its starting position into the actuating position.
- the locking section is preferably pivotable downward relative to the handle section along the second hinge axis.
- the swiveling directions can in particular be predetermined by a corresponding notch and / or a parallel alignment of regions adjacent to the joints.
- the first joint axis and / or the second joint axis preferably extend transversely, preferably orthogonally, to a longitudinal axis of the guide slot. Actuation of the can lid can thus be particularly intuitive. Alternatively or additionally, the first joint axis and the second joint axis extend parallel to one another, as a result of which the respective pivoting movements can advantageously be coupled particularly well, at least in certain pivoting ranges. In addition, the operation of the can lid can also be particularly intuitive. Alternatively or additionally, the first hinge axis and the second hinge axis are spaced apart. The second hinge axis is preferably arranged between the first hinge axis and the locking section.
- the first joint axis and then the second joint axis are preferably arranged along the actuating element in the direction of displacement of the closure element. This enables advantageous couplings between the grip section and the locking section.
- the first joint preferably extends over the entire width of the handle section and / or the fastening section. As a result, the articulated connection can be particularly stable.
- the second joint preferably extends over the entire width of the locking section and / or only over part of the width of the handle section, in particular only over a central part of the handle section.

- a vertical direction of the can lid 10 can be defined by a standing can.
- the top of respective parts of the can lid 10 are defined with respect to a side facing away from an interior of the can. Respective undersides face an interior of the can.
- the terms “top” and “bottom” or “top” and “bottom” refer to the usual arrangement of the lid on a can.
- the can lids according to the invention can, however, also be aligned differently or attached to a can if required.
- the can lid 10 is a round flat body and has a circumferential bead 13 on the radially outside for reinforcement. On its outer circumferential edge, the lid mirror 12 is crimped to the can body for connection and thus manufacture of the closed can.
- the lid mirror 12 can have external dimensions and materials which correspond to a conventional lid mirror for beverage cans.
- the cover mirror 12 is formed, for example, from a metallic material such as tinplate or aluminum sheet and was produced in a deep-drawing and / or stamping process.

- the can lid 10 has a closure element 18 on which is arranged on the underside of the cover mirror 12.
- the closure element 18 can be seen, for example, in FIG. 3.
- the closure element 18 can be moved translationally and essentially free of rotation between a closed position and an open position, these positions corresponding to a closed or opened can lid 10.
- the closure element 18 closes the pouring opening 14 in a gastight and liquid-tight manner.
- the closure element 18 covers the pouring opening 14 in the closed position and thus seals it from the inside against the interior of the can.
- the closure element 18 In its open position, the closure element 18 at least partially clears the pouring opening 14.
- the actuating element 16 and the closure element 18 are each formed from a plastic.
- the actuating element 16 and the closure element 18 can be formed from the same material.
- the actuating element 16 and the closure element 18 are preferably each an injection molding element.
- the actuating element 16 and the closure element 18 are each formed in one piece.
- the actuating element 16 is connected to the closure element 18. By moving the actuating element 16, the closure element 18 can therefore be moved, in particular guided, between the closed position and the open position.
- a type of management is described below as an example.
- the connection is preferably designed as an ultrasonic welded connection.
- the actuating element 16 has a grip section 20 and a fastening section 22, which are connected as a first joint by means of a first film hinge 24.
- the first film hinge 24 is designed as a notch in the top of the actuating element 16, which extends from above into the actuating element. The notch is widened at an upper end and tapers towards the underside.
- the film hinge 24 allows the handle section 20 to rotate relative to the fastening section 22 about its hinge axis, which corresponds to the longitudinal extent of the film hinge 24.
- the film hinge 24 thus specifies a preferred direction of rotation. When pivoting upward, respective walls of the notches limit the maximum pivoting angle at which these respective walls at least partially abut one another.
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic perspective view of how the grip section 20 was partially rotated upward from its starting position, shown in FIG. 1, relative to the fastening section 22.
- the grip section 20 has an area 30 of reduced thickness at its end facing away from the fastening section 22.
- the grip section 20 can be raised particularly easily from its initial position, for example with a fingernail.
- the grip section In the starting position (FIG. 1), the grip section extends essentially parallel to the cover mirror 12 and lies flat against it.
- FIG. 4 illustrates the grip section 20 in a starting position, in which it extends essentially flat in a plane parallel to the cover mirror 12 with the fastening section 22.
- FIG. 6 shows a schematic perspective view of an actuating position of the handle section 20.
- the handle section 20 is rotated far upward, for example at least 60 ° or at least 80 ° with respect to a plane defined by the fastening section 22 and / or the cover mirror 12.
- the grip section 20 can be gripped particularly easily to move the closure element 18, for example with two fingers.
- the grip section 20 also has a cutout which can offer additional grip to a finger (in particular the thumb) when being adjusted.
- a locking section 28 is arranged at least in the starting position.
- the actuating element 16 has the locking section 28.
- This locking section is preferably also formed in one piece with the remaining actuating element 16 in an injection molding process.
- the locking section 28 is connected to the handle section 20 via a second film hinge 70 as a second joint.
- the second film hinge 70 is designed as a notch in the underside of the actuating element 16 (see FIG. 11), which extends from below into the actuating element. At a lower end, the notch is widened and tapers towards the top.
- the second film hinge 70 allows the locking section 28 to rotate relative to the handle section 20 about its hinge axis, which corresponds to the longitudinal extent of the second film hinge 70. Swiveling the locking section 28 downwards is easier than swiveling upwards, which the second film hinge 70 counteracts and may require plastic molding.
- the second film hinge 70 thus specifies a preferred direction of rotation.
- the locking section 28 is separated from the handle section 20 outside the second film hinge 70 by a gap 74.
- the gap 74 preferably has rounded relief notches 76, which prevent the actuating element 16 from tearing when the locking section 28 and / or the handle section 20 is loaded.
- the locking section 28 is additionally connected to the handle section 20 by means of, for example, three web elements 72.
- the web elements are, for example, manufactured together with the rest of the actuating element 16 in an injection molding process.
- the web elements 72 are designed to break from the closed position into the open position when the can lid 10 is adjusted for the first time.
- the web elements 72 thus form a tamper-evident feature of the can lid 10, which visually indicates to a user whether the can lid 10 has already been opened for the first time or not. Breaking the web elements 72 can also generate an acoustic signal.
- the locking section 28 has a locking element 32 which projects on the underside (see, for example, FIGS. 7d, 8, 9 and 11).
- the locking element 32 is designed as a hook, which can be seen particularly well in the side view of FIG. 7d and the sectional views in accordance with FIG. 8.
- the locking element 32 In the starting position, the locking element 32 extends into a corresponding recess 34 in the closure element 18, as a result of which the locking section 28 can lie flat and the hook can reach behind the cover mirror 12.
- the locking section 28 and thus also the handle section 20 are locked in the starting position. This locking can in particular cause the web elements 72 to break when the handle section 20 is raised for the first time, since the locking device holds the locking section 28 against a force acting on the cover mirror 12 via the second film hinge 70.
- the web elements 72 can also break if the actuating element 16 is moved in the direction of the open position without lifting the grip section 20, for example in the event of a manipulation attempt.
- the locking section 28 remains in position due to the engagement with the cover mirror 12 and thus presses the actuating element 16 upward in the region of the second film hinge 70.
- the grip section 20 is at least in the The area of the web elements 72 is lifted off the locking section 28, as a result of which the web elements 72 break. Additional protection against manipulation of the can lid 10 is thus provided.
- the locking element 32 detaches from the cover mirror 12.
- the lifting of the handle section 20 results in a displacement of the second joint 70 towards the pouring opening 14, as a result of which the locking element 32 in the direction of the pouring opening 14 is pulled so that the engagement with the cover mirror 12 is released.
- the locking can be released and the can lid 12 can be opened.
- the hook 32 can be pulled away from the end of the guide slot 34.
- the locking element 32 After the locking device has been released for the first time, plastic deformation of the locking element 32 can prevent it from being locked again.
- the release of the locking element 32 can cause a noise which is also perceptible to the user as a signal.
- the locking element 32 cannot deform or can deform essentially elastically when the can is opened for the first time.
- the locking element 32 can lock again on the cover mirror when the handle section 20 is readjusted, for example in the manner of a snap-in and / or a snap connection. This means that a transport lock can be provided even after opening for the first time. This re-locking can also cause a noise that signals the user to re-lock.
- the actuating element 16 is preferably designed such that it deforms from its initial position after the handle section 20 has been moved for the first time. This can prevent the handle section 20 from being returned to the starting position and / or make it recognizable when it is opened for the first time.
- the first and / or the second film hinge 24, 70 can deform and / or tear on an outer edge such that the grip section 20 no longer remains in the starting position and / or the deformation and / or the tear can be recognized by a user .
- the handle section can be designed such that it only returns to an intermediate position after opening for the first time.
- the handle section 20 is prevented from being bent back by the fact that a downward rotation beyond the cover mirror 12 would be necessary in order to avoid the plastic deformation undo, but is blocked by the cover mirror 12 due to the attachment of the actuator 16 thereon.
- a surface of a plastic can change optically irreversibly during plastic deformation, for example its color.
- the handle section 20 rests in the open position of the can lid 10 on an upwardly projecting edge of the lid mirror 12 and / or protrudes beyond the edge.
- the handle section 20 is particularly easy to operate for closing the can.
- the locking section 28 can also rest there, as shown.
- the actuating element 16 is at least partially rounded in a transition from its top to an outer edge. This rounding can avoid, for example, an uncomfortable feeling when gripping the actuating element. A risk of pinching when adjusting the actuating element 16 can also be reduced in this way.
- the actuating element 16 and thus also the closure element 18 can be adjusted by pulling and / or pressing the handle section in a direction essentially orthogonal to the handle section 20 set up along the cover mirror 12.
- FIG. 13a illustrates the top view of the cover mirror 12 in a schematic plan view, which is shown there without the actuating element 16 and the closure element 18.
- the lid mirror 12 has an additional passage area to the pouring opening 14 in the form of an elongated guide slot 34.
- the connection between the actuating element 16 and the closure element 18 is arranged in the guide slot 34 and thus the displacement of the closure element 18 between the closed position and the open position is guided.
- the locking element 32 is also arranged in the guide slot 34 before the can is opened for the first time.
- the pouring opening 14 and the guide slot 34 are formed as a common through opening in the cover mirror 12. As a result, they can be produced together inexpensively, for example in a stamping process.
- the can lid 12 has two at its end region 36 facing away from the pouring opening 14 Relief notches 38, which extend substantially transversely to the longitudinal extent of the guide slot 34. As a result, the corners in the end region 36 of the guide slot 34 are rounded, which counteracts tearing due to internal pressure in the can.
- the lid mirror 12 can also have a design which can bring about pressure equalization when the can is opened.
- a notch 40 can optionally be arranged on a region facing away from the closed position into the open position and adjacent to the pouring opening 14. This notch can form a thin channel between the interior and the exterior of the can before the pouring opening 14 is actually released. An overpressure in the interior of the can can result in a clear hissing sound, which signals this overpressure and thus the freshness of the drink to the user.
- an additional through opening 42 with a small diameter can optionally also be arranged in this area in order to likewise open a channel with a small cross section before the pouring opening 14 is actually opened when opening.
- the passage opening 42 can also be referred to as a pressure compensation opening. Even here, the overpressure and thus the freshness of the can contents can be signaled to a user acoustically.
- FIG 3 shows the can lid 10 with the closure element 18 in the closed position in a bottom view.
- the closure element 18 covers the pouring opening 14 and the guide slot 34.
- the pouring opening 14 is largely released in the open position by the closure element 18.

- a seal 44 is arranged on the closure element 18 in an upper-side groove facing the cover mirror 12.
- the closure element 18 is connected to the actuating element 16 in such a way that the seal 44 is pressed against the cover mirror 12 on the underside and thus seals the pouring opening 14 in the closed position.
- the actuating element 16 preferably lies only with its curved edge 46 on the top side of the cover mirror 12 and can therefore be easily pretensioned.
- the actuating element in the unconnected state, can be curved along a central region of the underside and, in the state connected to the closure element 18, can be bent toward the latter.
- the closure element, in particular its underside can be cambered in the unconnected state, in particular concave cambered.
- the seal 44 is formed all around on the closure element 18.
- the seal 44 preferably has two radially inward extensions.

- these extensions can additionally secure the seal 44 against rotation in the groove.
- the closure element 18 has an area 49 which bears against the cover mirror 12 and which can protrude upward from a surrounding area.
- the latter can support the actuating element 18, in particular the first and / or the second film hinge 24, 70, and the cover mirror 12 in this area when the handle section 20 is pivoted. As a result, overloading and undesired deformation of the cover mirror 12 can be avoided.
- the area 49 is preferably surrounded by the seal.
- the closure element 18 can have at least one or more further adjoining regions 49A, 49B on its upper side, which are preferably arranged outside the seal 44, in particular on opposite sides of the Closure element 18.
- the respective area 49A, 49B preferably supports the cover mirror 12 from below in a respective end area of the film hinge 24.
- the closure element 18 has a circumferential depression 48. In the open position, this depression 48 can provide an additional air duct between the interior of the can and an environment. Air can flow back through the air duct when pouring out, in order to enable a quick and even pouring out.
- An inlet of the air duct can, for example, through an opening between the
- Actuating element 16 and the closure element 18 may be formed.
- the inlet is optionally additionally formed by a recessed area 80 of the seal 44 in the manner of a notch and a corresponding wall 82 projecting on the upper side of the closure element 18.
- the actuating element 16 can also have a recess 92 on the underside in an edge region of the fastening section 22, which is arranged opposite an end of the closure element 18 facing the pouring opening 14, for this purpose. In the closed position, this opening is blocked by the cover mirror 12. By moving this inlet into the area of the pouring opening 14, a gap between the actuating element 16 and the closure element 18 is created, through which air can flow.
- an opening can be opened by the

- the closure element 18 and / or the cover mirror 12 can deform elastically in order to also open a gap.
- the closure element can rotate slightly downward in an end region. This rotation can be recognized particularly well in FIG. 8e.
- a depression 50 in the form of an embossing in the direction of the inside of the can can be arranged in this area in the cover mirror 12 (not shown), which can likewise cause the closure element 18 to be deflected in this way from the cover mirror 12.
- one or more bulges 50 can be formed in the upward direction in the cover mirror 12, which likewise means that at least one passage for the air duct can be released in the open position.
- the lid mirror 12 is particularly resistant to deformation due to internal pressure in the can.
- Fig. 13a four bulges 50 are illustrated by dashed lines as an example. These can be made as embossments. Further possible configurations are discussed in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 15 and 16.

- FIG. 8b the grip section 20 has been raised and pivoted about the hinge axis of the first film hinge 24. However, the locking element 32 is still in engagement with the cover mirror 12. As a result, the web elements 72 are broken.
- the edge-side projection 84 on the bead 13 was deflected downward, whereby the air channel between the closure element 18 and the cover mirror 12 was released. This allows air to flow particularly easily into the interior of the can when pouring out, which makes pouring out particularly quick and smooth.
- the actuating element 16 and thus the closure element in the image plane of FIG. 8 is moved to the left, whereby the pouring opening 14 is closed again.
- a downwardly projecting rectangular wall 86 can be seen on the underside of the actuating element 16.
- This wall 86 is when connecting the Actuating element 16 with the closure element 18 is preferably at least partially melted by means of ultrasonic welding. The resulting connection is particularly strong.

- This rib structure is also preferably not provided in the area of the connection, in particular the wall 86.
- connection of the closure element 18 with the actuation element 16 does not penetrate the closure element 18.
- the connection of the closure element 18 with the actuation element 16 is at least partially arranged in the guide slot 34. Due to the rectangular shape of the connection, predetermined for example by the shape of the wall 86, the groove 88 and / or the projection 90, the connection for guiding the adjustment movement between the closed position and the open position can be supported on the edge of the guide slot 34 formed by the cover mirror 12. Due to its rectangular shape, the connection can also provide an anti-rotation device.
- the connection thus has two essentially flat surfaces. The flat surfaces extend, for example, essentially parallel to the edge of the cover mirror 12, which delimits the guide slot 34. The flat surfaces can be supported on this edge when the actuating element 16 is moved along the guide slot 34 and thus prevent undesired rotation of the actuating element 16.
- the seal 44 shows a particularly advantageous cross-sectional configuration of the seal 44 in a sectional view. It can be seen that the seal 44 is at least partially received in a groove 58 of the closure element 18.
- the seal 44 has a sealing lip 60 on the top side with which it contacts the cover mirror 12 on the underside.
- the sealing lip 60 is preferably inclined.
- the sealing lip 60 can extend radially inward from the groove 58 and / or be inclined radially inward. Below and radially inward to the sealing lip 60, the latter has an undercut 62. If the sealing lip 60 is pressed more strongly, for example due to an increased can pressure, the sealing lip can escape into this free space. Different pressures can thus be compensated for without damaging the seal 44.
- an actuation force may vary less with the internal pressure of the can due to friction between the seal 44 and the lid mirror 12.
- the cover mirror 12 here has at least one first depression 50A or a plurality of depressions 50A, which can form a second open end of the air duct 48 during the opening of the closure element 20 and / or in its open position, as already described above.
- the at least one first depression 50A is preferably arranged such that it is arranged within the seal 49 (see FIGS. 16 and 19) in the closed position of the closure element 18.
- the at least one first depression 50A is preferably arranged such that it is covered, preferably completely, in the closed position by the closure element 18 and / or by the actuating element 16 (not shown in FIGS. 15 and 16).
- a position, in particular an intermediate position, is preferably achieved in which the seal 50 and / or the closure element 20 partially overlaps the at least one first depression 50A.
- a pressure equalization can thus be achieved, in particular an initial pressure equalization when the closure element 18 is opened.
- the at least one first depression 50A can be arranged such that it is completely overlapped by the closure element 18 in the open position and / or is arranged entirely within the seal 44.
- the cover mirror 12 can have at least one second depression 50B. This is preferably arranged such that it is not covered by the closure element 18 in the closed position and / or is not arranged within the seal 44 in the closed position, not even partially.
- the at least one second depression 50B is preferably not covered by the actuating element 16 in the closed position.
- the at least one second recess is preferably partially (in particular only partially) overlapped by the closure element 20 and / or the seal 50 and / or the actuating element 16.
- the second recess 50B can thus provide an alternative open second end for the air duct 48 in the closed position.
- the use of different recesses 50A, 50B makes it possible to selectively adjust the air flow through the air duct 48.
- the at least one first depression can e.g. be dimensioned so that there is a hiss when opened.
- the at least one second recess 50B can e.g. be dimensioned such that gurgling is prevented during pouring, in particular when the closure element 18 is fully opened.
- the second depression 50B can be formed, for example, as one or more depressions 50B, which is arranged in the direction of displacement of the actuating element 16 behind the operating element 30 (see FIG. 15) and / or next to the actuating element 16 (see FIG. 16).
- the at least one first depression 50A and / or the at least one second depression 50B can protrude upwards or downwards.
- the at least one first depression 50A and / or the at least one second depression 50B can in particular be designed as an embossing in the cover mirror 12.
- the cover mirror 12 can furthermore have one or more (in particular two) third depressions 51. These can interact with one or more corresponding projections 73 on the upper side of the closure element 18 in order to provide a longitudinal guide and / or an anti-rotation device for the closure element 18.
- the depression 51 preferably projects upwards. It can be designed as an embossing in the cover mirror 12.
- the disclosed closure can also be attached to other containers for liquids.
- liquid containers can be made of cardboard, plastic and / or metal, for example. This applies in particular to containers which are made at least in the region of a pouring opening from a material which has sufficient rigidity.
- the lid mirror mentioned here can be replaced, for example, by a wall of the container and / or can be formed by such a wall.
