  • the invention relates to a tamper evident closure system highlighting whether it has been opened before.
  • the present invention relates to a tamper evident closure system allowing that the circumferential projections on top surface of the cap to deform permanently the top surface of the plastic upper sleeve during an attempt for reclosing after unauthorized access of content within the bottle, for highlighting whether closure system has been opened before.
  • the document EP2769927 B1 mentions a closure system which prevents the cap from being further rotated until its first position before the initial opening.
  • the abutment arms are released from their trapped position and lean on the annular abutment groove by bending radially towards to the inside of the cap. So, it prevents full closure of the cap after the initial opening.
  • the document EP1981774 B1 mentions a closing device having a cap, a pourer suitable for coupling with said cap and for fastened to the neck of a bottle and a covering liner comprising an upper sleeve portion and a bottom sleeve portion.
  • the closure system allows that the circumferential projections on the top surface of the cap to highlight into the flat top surface of the upper sleeve portion during pressing firmly on the covering liner for taking it as close as possible to the bottom portion of the liner. So, the highlights formed on outer top surface of the upper sleeve portion during reclosing of closure make obvious that the closing device has been opened before.
  • the covering liner is made of thin layer of aluminum for allowing the circumferential projections on the top surface of the cap to unequivocally highlight that the closing device has been opened.
  • Approximate top wall thickness of plastic outer sleeve is 1 mm while approximate top wall thickness of aluminum covering liner is 0.25 mm. Therefore, the circumferential projections on the top surface of the cap cannot highlight into the flat top surface of the plastic outer sleeve during pressing firmly on the outer sleeve for taking closure system as close as possible to the bottom portion of the liner.
  • the aim of the present invention is to present a tamper evident closure system allowing that the circumferential projections on top surface of the cap to deform permanently the top surface of the plastic outer sleeve during pressing firmly on the upper sleeve portion for taking it as close as possible to the bottom portion of the liner, for highlighting to end purchaser whether closure has been opened before.
  • Another aim of the present invention is to allow that end purchaser understands whether there is an attempt for unauthorized access of content within the bottle, before.
  • Another aim of the present invention is to allow that the tamper evidence means used for aluminum covering liner via circumferential projections on the top surface of the cap is applied for the plastic outer sleeve too.
  • FIG 1 a a front view of the present plastic outer sleeve consisting of an upper sleeve portion and a bottom sleeve portion, is given.
  • FIG 1 b a top view of the mentioned plastic outer sleeve is shown.
  • FIG 1 d a perspective view of the present plastic outer sleeve is shown.
  • FIG 2b a cross-sectional view of the nested structure comprising present plastic outer sleeve and a cap, is shown.
  • FIG 3a a close cross-sectional view of the present closure system, emphasizing the contact points between inner top surface of mentioned upper sleeve portion and circumferential projections lying on top surface of mentioned cap is given.
  • FIG 4a a top view of the present cap is shown.

  • figure 7b a top view of mentioned conventional plastic outer sleeve is shown.
  • FIG 7d a perspective view of the conventional plastic outer sleeve is shown.
  • figure 8a a perspective view of mentioned conventional plastic outer sleeve in transparent form is given.
  • FIG 8b a perspective view of present plastic outer sleeve in transparent form is shown.
  • This invention relates to a closure system (1) which provides first opening guarantee to the end purchaser by allowing that the circumferential projections (21.2) on flat top portion (21) of the cap (20) deform permanently the top surface (31.1) of the plastic upper sleeve portion (31) after first unauthorized reclosing attempt of the closure system (1). So, the end purchaser easily can easily remark whether unauthorized access of content within the bottle is occurred before.
  • closure mechanism of the alcohol bottle comprises a pourer having inner thread surface engaging with corresponding threaded portion of bottle finish, a cap having inner threads as fitting to the outer threads of the pourer and an outer sleeve wrapping bottle finish and cap together.
  • Outer sleeve consists of upper sleeve portion and tubular lower sleeve portion which are separated by a breaking line.
  • the circumferential projections on top surface the caps are already used as a tamper evident means for bottles having aluminum covering liner.
  • the circumferential projections cause deformation (31.5) of aluminum covering liner at the points where the inner top surface of the upper sleeve portion contacts with circumferential projections.
  • the tamper evidence property used for closure system having aluminum covering liner via circumferential projections on the top surface of the cap cannot being directly applied for the closure system having plastic outer sleeve due to its top wall thickness which is greater than the top wall thickness of aluminum covering liner.
  • Cross-sectional, top, bottom and perspective views of conventional plastic outer sleeve are given respectively in figure 7a, 7b, 7c and 7d.
  • a transparent perspective view showing also inner structure of conventional plastic outer sleeve is given in figure 8a.
  • the pressing force required for deforming plastic material is quite greater than the pressing force required for deforming aluminum material. Since it is not possible to manage the closing torque applied by person who tries to reclose the bottle, it is necessary to decrease the top wall thickness of the plastic outer sleeve.
  • Present invention allows permanent deformation (31.5) on top surface (31.1) of the plastic outer sleeve (30) during first unauthorized reclosing attempt, thanks to reduced top wall thickness of present plastic outer sleeve (30) through the trajectory where circumferential projections (21.2) on flat top portion (21) of the cap (20) coincide.
  • the present closure system (1) comprises a pourer (10) equipped with non-drip lip(1 1), a cap (20) having a flat top portion (21) containing at least one circumferential projection (21.2) and a tubular portion (22) containing at least one security tab (22.1) corresponding each circumferential projection (21.2), a plastic outer sleeve (30) consisting of an upper sleeve portion (31) portion having at least one circumferential indentation (31.3) and one circumferential protrusion (31.4) between two mentioned consecutive indentations, a tubular lower sleeve portion (32) and a breaking line (33) separating the plastic outer sleeve (30) into two separate portions as upper sleeve portion (31) and tubular lower sleeve portion (32).
  • Security tabs (22.1) associated one elastic flap (22.2) structure are used means for preventing full close of the cap (20) until its first position before the initial opening. Before initial opening, the tips of security tabs (22.1) are trapped at trap corner (11.2) in stretching position, as shown in figure 6a.
  • Figure 6a shows a sectional view of the present closure system (1) before initial opening.
  • cap (20) has a tamper-evident strip (22.4) which is easily seen after formation of tamper-evident gap (34).
  • the color of cap (20) has a contrast color according to the color of plastic outer sleeve (30) for allowing the tamper-evident strip (22.4) of cap to be easily remarked by the purchaser.
  • FIG. 1 a Front, top, bottom and perspective views of present plastic outer sleeve (30) are given respectively in figure 1 a, 1 b, 1 c and 1 d.
  • a cross-sectional view of the plastic outer sleeve (30) is given in figure 2a.
