Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pouring lid for a container, in particular a refill box, for powder products.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a reclosable and one-part pouring lid that can be manufactured without re-assembly and can be operated in a simple manner, namely with one hand.
  • Part of the new pouring lid should be opened independently of the remaining lid part and should be lockable in the open position.
  • Another aim is to design the pouring lid in such a way that when the part to be opened is not actuated, the entire lid is not pulled off the container, which can in particular be a can.
  • part of the lid is a flap that can be opened via a film hinge that runs obliquely to the edge of the container in the lid surface, that a locking tongue that is essentially perpendicular to the lid surface is attached to the inside of the lid surface of the flap and that the circular arc described by the free end of the locking tongue when the flap is actuated intersects the plane of the inner surface of the container wall on the container edge assigned to the flap.
  • the invention ensures that the locking tongue climbs onto the edge of the container when the flap is opened and slides off the edge again when the flap is closed.
  • the mode of action of the locking tongue is favored if its free end or. its lower edge is rounded like a lens. If it is desired that the flap should be lockable at an opening angle of approximately 60 °, the position and the length of the locking tongue are selected according to the invention such that the circular arc described by the free end of the locking tongue changes the plane of the inner surface of the container wall by approximately 60 ° open flap cuts. At this or another predetermined opening angle, the free end of the locking tongue then climbs onto the edge of the container and ensures that the flap does not close again by itself.
  • the pouring lid according to the invention preferably consists of plastic, for example of polyethylene or polypropylene, and is designed as a snap lid.
  • Part of this snap cover is the flap according to the invention, which can be actuated via the film hinge relative to the snap cover.
  • the shape and length of the to lock the flap at a certain opening angle provided locking tongue is also chosen so that the tongue slides again from the edge of the container when the flap is closed.
  • the mutual assignment according to the invention of the film hinge, container edge and locking tongue and the choice of the length of the tongue is based on the knowledge that the distance between the container edge and the lower edge or the free end of the locking tongue must be reduced when the flap is opened.
  • this condition can be met, for example, if the film hinge runs approximately diagonally to a corner of the lid.
  • the axis of the film hinge should accordingly form a chord of the lid surface.
  • the pouring lid when designed as a snap lid, it has ribs in addition to the circumferential undercut, which press against the inside of the can. This ensures that when the flap is opened, the entire cover is not removed, and the snap action of the undercut is increased in the region of the additional ribs.
  • the pouring lid according to the invention is suitable for practically every shape and size of a container.
  • the pouring lid designated as a whole by 1, consists of a lid surface 2 with an essentially all-round undercut 3 and a flap 5 connected to the lid surface 2 via a film hinge 4.
  • the underside of the flap 5 is nearby of the film hinge 4 and the lid edge 6 a locking tongue 7 which is substantially perpendicular to the lid surface 2.
  • 5 additional ribs 8 can be provided adjacent to the edge of the lid and in connection to the flap, which press against the inner surface of the container wall and serve to prevent the main part of the lid 1 from detaching from the container 9 when the flap 5 is opened.
  • the film hinge 4 extends obliquely to the edge 10 of the container 9 in the cover surface 2. It is thereby achieved that the free end of the locking tongue 7 attached to the inside of the lid surface of the flap 5, when actuated - that is to say when opening and closing - the flap 5 describes a circular arc which defines the plane 11 of the inner surface of the container wall 12 on that of the flap 5 assigned container edge 10 cuts. In other words, this means that the free end of the locking tongue 7 climbs onto the edge of the container 9 when the flap 5 is opened and slides off the edge 10 again when the flap 5 is closed. The ascent and descent of the locking tongue 7 on the container edge 10 is facilitated if the free end of the locking tongue 7 is rounded off in a lens shape.
  • the distance between the container 10 and the lower edge of the locking tongue 7 decreases when the flap 5 is opened. This distance is also increased again when the flap 5 is closed . This means that with a suitably selected length and position of the locking tongue 7, the flap 5 can be locked in a predetermined opening angle.
  • the container to be closed with the pouring lid or snap lid according to the invention can be practically any packaging shape and size that is intended for powder products and has sufficiently rigid walls. Special forms are, for example, refill boxes or cans.
