Description

DESCRIPTION

Resealable container

The present invention relates to a reclosable container according to the preamble of claim 1, a closure for use in such a reclosable container according to claim 12, a closure element for use in such a closure according to claim 13, an insert element for use in such a closure according to claim 14 and a holding element for use in such a closure according to claim 15.

It is known, for example, to hold food and especially drinks in containers or in vessels in order to store, transport, offer and the like for food or drinks. This also applies to care and cosmetic products, for example.

Such containers can be made differently depending on the application, i.e. for example depending on the food or drink and depending on the purpose of the container. This applies to the shape or the contour of the container as well as to its materials. Likewise, the accessibility to the interior of the vessel of the container can be made different depending on the application and prevented by means of a closure.

The disadvantage of using such containers is that they are often only intended for single use and are designed accordingly, so that correspondingly large amounts of packaging waste can be generated. In the case of containers for holding beverages in particular, plastic bottles, also called plastic bottles, such as, for example, PET bottles made of polyethylene terephthalate, are common and widespread. These plastic bottles lead to corresponding amounts of plastic or plastic waste, the environmental impact of which can at least be alleviated through recycling. However, plastic waste generated by containers such as bottles, drinking and baby bottles, jars, coffee-to-go cups, jars, storage jars and fresh-keeping containers, despite the possibilities of recycling, represents an existential threat to the environment and health and is increasingly becoming an environmental problem perceived.

In particular, the closures or the lids of the plastic bottles, which are also made of plastic such as polyethylene, are often, regardless of the Plastic bottles themselves, thrown away by the user and not recycled. This can lead to widespread environmental pollution due to plastic lids of containers for holding food and in particular for holding beverages such as, in particular, bottles. Such plastic lids usually have a thread on the inside in order to be screwed onto a corresponding external thread on the edge of the bottle neck.

As an alternative to vessels for holding food and, in particular, beverages, which can be made accessible by means of a closure and optionally closed again, it is known to manufacture the vessels of the containers, for example, from glass, ceramics and the like and with closures or lids usually made of plastic but also to be closed from other materials than plastic. These include, for example, the metal crown caps with a glued-in plastic seal to close the opening of the neck of bottles. However, these have the disadvantage that they cannot be used again to close the opening of the bottle neck.

So-called clip closures for bottles are also known, which have a ceramic stopper with an annular rubber seal, which can be pivoted relative to the opening of the bottle neck by means of a retaining clip. As a result, the opening of the bottle neck can indeed be opened and closed again in a fluid-tight manner while under tension. However, the mechanics required for this cause a not inconsiderable effort and corresponding costs. Furthermore, a clip lock, both in the open and in the closed state, requires a not inconsiderable additional installation space, which can be disruptive for use.

Furthermore, corks or stoppers are known which can be pressed into the opening of the bottle neck with elastic deformation and held there with a force fit. Such closures of bottles can in particular be obtained from renewable raw materials such as the cork bark of the cork oak and thus represent an environmentally friendly product in principle Limited availability of this material. Corks made of plastic also lead to environmental pollution with plastic when they are thrown away. Independently of this, an opening of a bottle neck that is closed with a cork or a stopper can be opened unintentionally, for example during transport, which reduces the security or the reliability of this type of closure for the openings of bottle necks.

In the case of jars for holding, for example, dairy products, canned fruit, canned vegetables and the like, metal lids are known which can be latched or locked in place under spring tension by means of a rotary cam lock, also known as a twist-off screw lid. To the Sealing against the mouth edge of the glass, a plastic layer is usually applied cohesively to the inner surface of the lid, so that such lids usually cannot do without the use of plastic materials.

It has also recently become known to use alternative materials such as bioplastics, silicone or bamboo / melamine composites for the production of lids with screw closures, whereby the problem of environmental pollution from thrown-away lids can only be relocated but not solved.

One object of the present invention is to provide a resealable container, in particular for receiving or storing food, of the type described at the outset, which can be implemented for as many different types of such containers as possible without the use of plastic or plastic can. In particular, it should be possible to reclose the vessel of the container using purely mechanical means. In particular, the mechanical means, for example for cleaning, should be able to be dismantled simply, quickly and / or without the use of tools. In particular, it should be possible to dispense with the use of synthetic adhesives or binders for connecting components by means of adhesive and cohesive forces. In particular, the vessel of the container should be able to be closed in a fluid-tight manner. In particular, it should be possible to implement this as simply, inexpensively, space-saving, reusable, recyclable, safe to use, user-friendly and / or intuitively usable. At least an alternative to known resealable containers is to be created.

The object is achieved according to the invention by a resealable container with the features of claim 1, by a closure with the features of claim 12, by a closure element with the features of claim 13, by an insert element with the features of claim 14 and by a retaining element with the Features of claim 15 solved. Advantageous further developments are described in the subclaims.

The present invention thus relates to a resealable container with a vessel with at least, preferably precisely, one, preferably circular, opening through which an interior of the vessel can be accessible, and with a, preferably circular, closure which is formed, the opening of the vessel, preferably in a fluid-tight manner, to be resealable. Such a vessel can have any shape or any contour and in particular be a storage jar, a bottle, a can or the like.

In other words, the resealable container has at least on the one hand a vessel and on the other hand a closure for the vessel. The vessel essentially encloses one Interior space, in which substances such as food, but also other substances such as care or cosmetics, can be absorbed in solid, in particular in granular, powdery, or liquid form. This interior space is accessible from the outside through at least one opening, this opening being able to be closed by the closure of the container or made accessible by removing the closure. The closure can preferably take place in a fluid-tight manner in order to be able to reliably prevent a leakage of a liquid substance. In this case, the opening of the vessel and the closure can preferably have a circular shape corresponding to one another, which can enable certain types of connection between the closure and the vessel, as will be described in more detail below.

The resealable container according to the invention is characterized in that the closure has:

• a, preferably circular, closure element which is designed to be held positively and / or non-positively on the opening of the vessel,

• a, preferably circular, insert element, which is arranged facing the opening of the vessel on the inside inside the closure element, and

A, preferably circular, holding element which is arranged on the inside inside the closure element and holds the insert element positively and / or non-positively within the closure element, the closure element having at least, preferably precisely, one, preferably circular, through opening which is closed by the insert element can.

In other words, the closure has at least the closure element, the insert element and the holding element, which are purely mechanically connected to one another or interact purely mechanically with one another and together form the closure, which can optionally have additional elements, which is preferably not the case . In this case, the insert element is received within the closure element and fixed or held there by the holding element, which can be done purely in a form-fitting, purely non-positive manner or in a combined purely form-fitting and non-positive manner. For this purpose, the holding element can be designed to be elastically deformable, for example, and be held in a clamping, ie force-locking manner within the closing element by an oversize with respect to the inside of the closing element, so that the insert element is at least positively fixed between the closing element and holding element. Here, the holding element can also press against the insert element and thus hold it in a non-positive manner. The closure element can in turn be held positively and / or non-positively on the vessel in such a way that the opening of the vessel can be closed by the closure or by its insert element, which in turn is held by the closure element, and can be opened by removing the closure. On the part of the closure element, this can take place in a force-fit manner with respect to the vessel or in relation to an edge of the opening of the vessel by gripping around it. This can also be done in a form-fitting manner on the part of the closure element with respect to the vessel or with respect to the edge of the opening of the vessel by means of a spring-elastic grip behind, for example by means of elastically deformable latching hooks or the like. This can also be implemented in combination. The closure or its closure element can also be held on the opening of the vessel or on its edge by means of a screw closure or a rotary cam closure.

The present invention is based on the knowledge that nowadays large amounts of plastic waste arise from the fact that various substances in solid, liquid or powdery form such as food,

Beverages, care products or cosmetic products resealable containers are used in which both the vessel and the closure are made of plastic and can be recycled after use, but this is not always done. In particular, plastic screw caps from plastic drinking bottles are often not recycled but carelessly thrown away, which significantly pollutes the environment.

According to the invention, a resealable container is therefore provided, the closure of which has several elements which, when combined, enable an opening of the corresponding vessel to be closed, but at the same time can be easily separated by the user in order to be able to recycle the individual elements separately. For this purpose, the insert element can be pushed out of the closure element simply and without the use of tools, for example with the thumb, by the user through the through opening of the closure element, contrary to the fastening which is exercised by the holding element, which is particularly simple, fast, tool-free and intuitive May allow dismantling of the elements of the closure.

The individual elements can also be easily exchanged in this way in order to be able to continue using the remaining elements and thus to avoid the entire closure being thrown away prematurely. This can reduce the amount of waste generated and improve recycling options. It is also advantageous here that the individual elements can be separated, for example to be able to be cleaned more easily or better, which can increase the hygiene of the use of a reclosable container according to the invention for the user.

It is also advantageous that the elements can be installed purely mechanically as a closure, so that additional means for a material connection, for example in the form of synthetic binders such as artificial adhesives, can be dispensed with. This can further improve environmental protection by not using synthetic binders. The use of the closure for closing the vessel can also be established and canceled by the user as often as desired due to the mechanical connection, which would not be the case with a material connection.

In particular, all elements of the closure can be made from natural raw materials such as wood, glass and natural rubber, each of which can be produced and disposed of or recycled with very little environmental impact. This can further increase the contribution to environmental protection through the use of a resealable container according to the present invention.

It is also advantageous here that the use of a closure made from natural raw materials can prevent chemical contamination or pollution of the substance in the vessel. This can guarantee the quality of the substance or prevent its reduction. In particular, this can ensure the health of the person using the substance.

According to one aspect of the invention, an edge of the insert element is formed, arranged between a, preferably circular, edge of the opening of the vessel and the closure element, preferably an underside of a base of the closure element, and is positively locked by the closure element, preferably the underside of the base of the closure element and / or to be held non-positively on the edge of the opening of the vessel. In other words, the insert element can be held by the closure element on its edge in the direction of the opening of the vessel, so that the insert element can completely close off or seal off the opening of the vessel. This can improve the tightness of the closure

According to a further aspect of the invention, the preferably circular edge of the insert element facing the edge of the opening of the vessel is convex, preferably planar and facing away from the edge of the opening of the vessel. This can bring about a line-like contact between the edge of the insert element of the closure and the edge of the opening of the vessel, which can promote the tightness between insert element and vessel. With others This allows a maximum contact area between the edge of the insert element of the words

Closure and the edge of the opening of the vessel can be achieved, which can improve the tightness. For example, when an insert element made of glass comes into contact with a vessel made of glass, an approximately 100% tightness can be achieved, which can be sufficient for many applications.

According to a further aspect of the invention, a central region of the insert element protrudes at least in sections, preferably over the entire surface, into the through opening of the closure element.

This can make it easier for a person to press the insert element out of the closure element with the thumb, for example, as described above, and thereby to disassemble the closure into its individual elements in a single step.

According to a further aspect of the invention, the central region of the insert element is designed to spring back into the through opening of the closure element. In other words, the insert element is formed at least essentially with the same thickness or strength from the edge to the central region, which results in an indentation of the insert element protruding into the through opening of the closure element. This can simplify the design of the insert element or reduce the material required for this, which can keep the weight, the costs and / or the energy consumption of the production of the insert element low.

According to a further aspect of the invention, the closure element is designed as a closure ring to be held on the opening of the vessel by means of a screw cap. This can enable a simple but securely durable connection between the closure and the vessel.

According to a further aspect of the invention, the closure element is designed as a closure ring to be held on the opening of the vessel by means of a rotary cam lock. This can represent an alternative, simple but securely durable connection between the closure and the vessel.

According to a further aspect of the invention, the closure element is made from wood or from metal, preferably from stainless steel or from tinplate. As a result, the closure element can be made from stable, durable, natural and / or visually appealing materials in order to enable a durable implementation of the closure element in order to dispense with artificial materials or to improve the visual impression for the user.

According to a further aspect of the invention, the vessel and / or the insert element is or are made of glass, preferably transparent, or of metal, preferably of stainless steel, or of porcelain or ceramic. In this way, the properties and advantages of the closure element described above can be transferred to the vessel and / or to the insert element. The container and / or the insert element can be designed to be completely transparent in sections and can enable the user to see into the interior of the reclosable container even when the opening is closed.

According to a further aspect of the invention, the holding element, preferably as a holding ring, is elastically deformable, preferably made of natural rubber, and designed with an oversize relative to an inside of an edge of the closure element to be held in a clamping manner on the inside within the closure element. Because the holding element is made from natural rubber, the use of plastics can also be dispensed with at this point, which can improve environmental protection.

In any case, the holding element can be held within the edge of the closure element so that it is easy to hold and / or can be easily separated by resiliently pressing the holding element in during assembly and thus pressing itself against the inside of the edge of the closing element in the assembled state by means of this spring force. With an appropriate geometric dimensioning and a suitable choice of the material of the holding element, a more secure clamping hold of the insert element within the edge of the closure element can be achieved, which can nevertheless be lifted by the user without tools and with little effort. In other words, the outer dimension of the holding element can be designed to be slightly larger than the inner dimension of the inside of the edge of the closure element, which can be referred to as an oversize of the holding element. A corresponding compression of the holding element during assembly can cause the holding element to jam in the assembled state.

According to a further aspect of the invention, the holding element is also designed as a sealing element, preferably as an O-ring, preferably made of natural rubber. In this way, an additional sealing effect can be achieved at this point, so that the tightness between the opening of the vessel and the closure can be further improved and also ensured for liquids.

The present invention also relates to a closure for use in a reclosable container as described above. In this way, a closure can be provided in order to implement the resealable container described above and to be able to use its properties and advantages as described above.

An exemplary embodiment and further advantages of the invention are illustrated and explained in more detail below in connection with the following figures. It shows:

Figure 1 is a side schematic exploded view of a reclosable container according to the invention;

FIG. 2 shows a schematic sectional illustration of FIG. 1;

FIG. 3 shows the schematic representation of FIG. 1 in the assembled and closed state; and FIG. 4 is a perspective exploded view of FIG. 1.

The above figures are viewed in cylindrical coordinates. A longitudinal axis X extends. A radial direction R extends away from the longitudinal axis X perpendicular to the longitudinal axis X. A circumferential direction U extends perpendicular to the radial direction R and around the longitudinal axis X.

A resealable container 1, 2 according to the considered exemplary embodiment of the present invention consists of a vessel 1 and a closure 2.

The vessel 1 is considered using the example of a screw cap 1 which is made in one piece, ie integrally, made of glass and is therefore transparent. Such a vessel 1 is used, for example, to receive and store food such as homemade jam. The vessel 1 has a vessel body 10 made of glass, which extends along the longitudinal axis X from a circular vessel bottom 11 over a cylindrical vessel wall 12 to an opening 16, which can also be referred to as the mouth 16. The opening 16 has an annular edge 16a which is oriented in the direction of the longitudinal axis X. Thus, an interior space 13 of the vessel 1 is formed, which is accessible through the opening 16. The vessel bottom 11 and the vessel wall 12 have an inner side 14 towards the interior 13 and an outer side 15 in the opposite direction. Immediately in the area of the opening 16, the vessel wall 12 forms an external thread 15a on its outside 15, which forms part of a screw cap 15a, 23b. On the outside 15 of the vessel wall 12 there is an annularly closed closure stop 15b. The closure 2 can also be referred to as a cover 2 or a closure system 2. In the exemplary embodiment under consideration, the closure consists of a closure element 20 in the form of a closure ring 20, which can also be referred to as screw ring 20, of an insert element 24, which can also be referred to as inlay 24, and of a holding element 27 in the form of a retaining ring 27.

The locking ring 20 is formed in one piece, ring-shaped, from wood. The locking ring 20 has a base 21 which extends in a ring-shaped manner around the longitudinal axis X in a closed manner. In the center, the base has a circular through opening 22, which can also be referred to as an opening 22, a recess 22 or a bore 22. The bottom 21 has an underside 21 a, which is aligned in the longitudinal direction X to the edge 16 a of the opening 16 of the vessel 1 and can therefore also be referred to as the inner side 21 a of the bottom 21. The bottom 21 is adjoined at right angles and aligned along the longitudinal axis X to the edge 16a of the opening 16 of the vessel 1, an edge 23 of the closure ring 20, which is closed in a ring around the longitudinal axis X and whose inner side 23a is oriented radially to the longitudinal axis X. The inside 23a of the edge 23 of the closure ring 20 has an internal thread 23b, which is designed to correspond to the external thread 15a of the vessel wall 12 of the vessel 1 and together with this forms the screw cap 15a, 23b.

The insert element 24 is in turn formed in one piece from transparent glass. The insert element 24 is circular in the plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis X and has, along the longitudinal axis X, a jump or offset of a circular central region 26 with respect to an annular edge 25, as a result of which an indentation 26a is formed facing the vessel 1. The annular edge 25 has an upper side 25a or an outer side 25a, which is aligned along the longitudinal axis X, pointing away from the vessel 1, and is planar. Along the longitudinal axis X opposite, the annular edge 25 has, facing the vessel 1 or its edge 16a, an underside 25b or an inner side 25b, which is convex.

The retaining ring 27 is made in one piece from natural rubber and is annular. Due to its elastic properties, the retaining ring 27 can exert a spring force in the radial direction R and also have a sealing effect, which is why the retaining ring 27 can also be referred to as a sealing ring 27 or an O-ring 27.

The closure 1 according to the invention is now mounted by a user in such a way that the closure ring 20 is turned around, i.e. H. with the underside 21a of the bottom 21 pointing upwards, is placed on a substrate. The insert element 24 is now inserted into the closure element 20 by the user from above in such a way that the indentation 26a points upwards or towards the user.

In this case, the central region 26 of the insert element 24 is from the through opening 22 of the Closure element 20 completely received. The retaining ring 27 is now inserted into the closure element 20 from above. The retaining ring 27 is slightly oversized in the radial direction R compared to the inside 23a of the frame 23 of the locking ring 20, so that the retaining ring 27 is slightly radially pressed in by the user when it is inserted into the locking ring 20. As a result, the retaining ring 27 exerts a certain spring force outward in the radial direction R, which holds the retaining ring 27 within the locking ring 20. The retaining ring 27 is pushed or pushed completely down by the user until the retaining ring 27 rests against the edge of the frame 25 of the insert element 24, so that the insert element 24 can be securely held by the retaining ring 27 within the closure element 20.

The closure 2 can now be screwed onto the vessel 1 from above by means of the screw closure 15a, 23b in order to close its opening 16. Here, the convex underside 25b of the edge 25 of the insert element 24 rests in an annular, linear manner on the radially inner edge of the edge 16a of the opening 16 of the vessel 1, so that the opening 16 of the vessel 1 is closed by the insert element 24. In addition, the retaining ring 27 has a sealing effect with respect to the edge 16a of the opening 16 of the vessel 1, so that a liquid-tight seal can be achieved, see FIG. 3.

By using wood, glass and natural rubber for the elements 20, 24, 27 of the closure 2, plastic can be dispensed with in order to implement the closure 2 for the vessel 1. This can contribute to environmental protection accordingly. Furthermore, the elements 20, 24, 27 of the closure 2 can be produced from natural materials in an environmentally friendly manner and recycled or disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner, which can further improve environmental protection. The purely mechanical assembly of the elements 20, 24, 27 of the closure 2 also dispenses with synthetic binders such as adhesives, which also contributes to environmental protection.

Nevertheless, a secure, tight and, in particular, fluid-tight closure 2 can be created for the vessel 1, which can be easily and quickly used by the user to close the vessel 1 and just as easily and quickly removed by the user in order to open the vessel 1.

Furthermore, the elements 20, 24, 27 of the closure 2 can be separated or dismantled again quickly and easily by the user in order to replace a single element 20, 24, 27 or to recycle or to recycle the elements 20, 22, 27 separately from one another dispose. For this purpose, the retaining ring 27 can be removed from the closure element 20 with little pressure, in that the user presses the central area 26 of the insert element 24 out of the through opening 22 of the closure element 20 with his thumb.
