Definitions
- the subject of the invention is a dispenser for liquid products in sachets, particularly designed for permanent connection with a plastic container with flexible walls for dispensing various liquid products, especially food products, cosmetics, etc.
- the invention described in US Patent No. 2022119163 discloses a container with a closure cap that is detachably attached to the outlet connector.
- the container includes a securing strap that permanently connects the closure cap to the outlet connector.
- the closure cap contains a gripping area for holding the cap.
- the securing strap includes a first lower end attached to the outlet connector, a second lower end attached to the closure cap, a first strap section, a second strap section, a first tear strip, and a second tear strip.
- the container includes a cap and a connecting element consisting of a strap and a warranty seal equipped with breakable bridges.
- the closure includes a base of the cap, which can be detachably attached to the packaging, wherein the base of the cap includes an opening.
- the closing flap is movably attached to the base of the cap and is suitable, when in the closed position, for preventing liquid from escaping from the container through the opening in the base of the cap.
- the closing flap has a blocking flap protruding from it and movably attached to the closing flap.
- the closure of the blocking flap is designed for detachably securing the blocking flap to the base of the cap or to the packaging to prevent accidental opening of the closure during transport and use by the consumer.
- the blocking flap can be concealed within the closing flap during normal use and used to block the closing flap during transport.
- the blocking flap can be positioned in a recess in the base of the cap.
- a beverage container with a closure comprises an outer part connected to the container opening, an axially movable inner part with a sealing element to restrict the flow of liquid through the closure, and a ring-shaped membrane connecting the outer and inner parts configured to provide a returning force for resiliently deflecting the inner part towards the first position.
- a closure assembly for flexible thin-walled packaging comprises a base body with an irreversibly flexing warranty wall, a cap assembly with a cap and a warranty flap (including at least one breakable bridge that, in the intact closed configuration, is integral and connects the warranty flap to the warranty wall), and an elastic hinge that connects the base body to the cap assembly.
- a container closure comprising a base element, a flip-top lid attached to said base element via a hinge in such a way that the flip-top lid can be moved between an open position and a closed position, and a tamper-indicating unit for indicating whether the flip-top lid has been opened at least once by a user or not.
- the tamperindicating unit comprises a first tamper-indicating element and a second tamperindicating element, which are connected to each other by at least one breakable bridge when the closure is in a factory state or when the flip-top lid has not yet been opened by a user.
- the first tamper-indicating element is attached to the base element in a manner that allows it to move between a first position and a second position, wherein the first tamper-indicating element is in its first position when the closure is in a factory state or when the lid has not been opened by a user, and the first tamper-indicating element indicating a breach is in its second position when the lid has been opened by a user at least once.
- a closure assembly and a container equipped with the closure assembly are known.
- the assembly consists of a cylindrical neck with a channel forming an outlet at the top of the channel.
- a rotating cap is installed, designed to be manually rotated from a closed position towards an open position.
- the rotating cap additionally includes a ring with a warranty bridge that is integrally molded into the diaphragm, and the warranty seal consists of at least two ring segments, each having a base portion and an indicator portion.
- the rotating cap with the warranty seal ring is shaped in such a way that, upon the user rotating the cap from its closed position towards the opening direction for the first time, the indicator portion of the cap engages with a protrusion, which then prevents further movement towards opening the closure.
- the breakable bridge between the base portion and the indicator portion is subjected to permanent deformation.
- the essence of the dispenser for sachets is that it comprises a set of shelves, of which the lower shelf has in its central part thickened segments with the bottom surface having open channels parallel to each other, and the side areas have polygonal outlines and are flat on both sides, and the middle shelf and the upper shelf have rectilinear side sections connected by an oval outline in the front part and in the rear part , and the middle shelf also has a circumferential offset constituting the basis for the annular shaped mounting element of the cap , while the upper shelf surrounds the mouthpiece and is the upper limiter of the ring retaining element of the cover cap with a hinged cover connected by a hinge and a locking latch, above whose outer side surface of the hinged cover has a flattening crowned with a hook at the top, and between the middle shelf and the upper shelf the side surface of the body has sets of locking guides located convergently to each other on the middle shelf, and the annular mounting element has arc recesses on the sides and in
- the hinged cover has a side surface and an upper edge with a streamlined contour, as well as a flat top surface with a contour similar to a rectangle with arcuately profiled comers.
- the dispenser has a set of two shelves with a circular outline, a ring-shaped mounting element, and a hinged cover with a rounded outline of the side surface and a rounded contour of the top surface.
- the advantage of the dispenser for sachets according to the invention is the simplicity of the construction, which allows for a reduction in the amount of plastic used in its manufacturing. Another advantage is the development of a cohesive construction of a dispenser with a cap for sachets of liquid products that meets both user expectations and all requirements regarding environmental protection.
- Figure 1 depicts the dispenser for liquid products in sachets in a general view without the cover cap
- Figure 2 shows the dispenser with the cover cap from the locking latch side
- Figure 3 presents the dispenser with the hinged cover tilted in a general view
- Figure 4 illustrates the cover cap in a bottom view
- Figures 5, 6, and 7 show a variation of the dispenser body with a rounded hinged cover cap.
- the dispenser for liquid products in sachets is manufactured from plastic polymer material and is designed for permanent attachment to thin-walled, elastic containers, such as a flexible pouch for liquid products.
- the sachet dispenser has a cylinder- shaped body 1, with a sealable segment 2 for sachets in the lower part, and above this segment it has a parallel set of three shelves with a flat upper surface: the lower shelf 3, the middle shelf 4 and the upper shelf 5.
- the lower shelf 3 has in the central part, there are thickened segments 6 with a bottom surface 7 having a set of open channels 8 parallel to each other, with the shelf having flat side areas 9 on both sides with a polygonal outline.
- the middle shelf 4 has a circumferential offset 13 constituting the basis for the annular shaped mounting element 14 of the cover cap 15.
- the middle shelf 4 and the upper shelf 5 have rectilinear side sections connected by an oval outline in the front part 16 and in the rear part 17 of the dispenser.
- the upper shelf 5 surrounds the mouthpiece 18 and constitutes the upper limiter of the annular shaped mounting element 14 of the cover cap 15 having a hinged cover 19 connected by a hinge 20 in the rear part 17 and a locking latch 21 in the front part 16 of the dispenser. Above the locking latch 21, the outer side surface of the hinged cover 19 has a flattened surface 22 with an oval outline, topped with a hook 23. Between the middle shelf 4 and the upper shelf 5, the side surface of the body 1 has two sets of profiled locking guides 24 located convergently to each other on the middle shelf 4.
- the annular shaped mounting element 14 has arcuate recesses 25 on the side edges, and in their central area on the inner surface, it has profiled centering walls 26 for engagement with the interlocking guides 24, while the hinged cover 19 is equipped with spacer pins 27 located circumferentially on the edge of the hinged cover 19.
- the annular shaped mounting element 14 of the cover cap 15 and the hinged cover 19 have flat side surfaces in the lateral parts 28 and an oval outline in the front part 16 and the rear part 17.
- the hinged cover 19 has a flat top surface 29 with a contour similar to a rectangle with arcuately profiled comers.
- the dispenser 1 has a set of two shelves with a circular outline: the middle shelf 4’ with an offset 13’ and the upper shelf 5’. It also includes a hinged cover 15’ with an annular shaped mounting element 14’ with a rounded contour of the side surface and a rounded contour of the top surface 29’.
