Definitions
- This invention relates to a closure for bottles and the like, of the type including a reservoir housed within the bottle neck and containing a material, generally as a pov der, which is allowed to drop into the liquid in the bottle by breakage of the bottom in saidreservoir.
- the bottom breakage is effected / by pressure exerted on the presser member of cylindrical shape, entering the reservoir by a slantwise cut end, this operation being carried out according to known techniques following the opening of a guarantee aluminum or also plastic crown-cap.
- a first disadvantage consists of the difficulty in removing an aluminum crown-cap rolled about the bottle neck, operation which very often causes wounds to the operator's hands and which cannot always be manually carried out.
- the cylindrically shaped presser member Upon removal of the guarantee crown-cap, the cylindrically shaped presser member is acted upon, which member will be in the following simply referred to as piercing plunger, for the breakage of the reservoir bottom in which it is housed.
- the reservoir content generally powdery material
- the reservoir content is then allowed to fall down into the bottle, mixing with the liquid material therein.
- the bottle inlet has to be freed, by removing said reservoir which together with the piercing plunger remains embedded within the bottle neck.
- This is also a dif ficult manual operation because of the poor available gripping and high seal or friction between the reservoir and bottle, so that the aid of mechanical means is often resorted to, such as for example a suitable tool acting as a lever between the respective contact edges of the bottle and reservoir inlet.
- a closure for bottles and the like, according to the present invention and preferably of plastic material of the crown-cap type including a breakable bottom reservoir housed within the bottle neck and comprising an annular flange seating on the bottle inlet edge, and a piercing plunger, preferably of hollow ty pe, entering the reservoir by a slantwise out end, is charac.
- said piercing plunger is made in a unitary body with the outer guarantee crown-cap and is housed internally of and coaxially therewith, the skirt of said crown-cap being internally provided with continuous and discontinuous ridges for engagement upon transitory elastic deformation with the bottle inlet edge, at its middle portion said skirt also having provided thereon a tearing removable strip defined by two circumferential parallel weakening or breaking lines, internally and at a suitable height said strip carrying continuous or discontinuous ridges for abutment with the top portion of the annular flange of said reservoir in order to avoid any casual pier cing of the reservoir in case of casual pressures exerted on the crown-cap, and so that by removing said strip and exerting a proper pressure on the outer crown-cap, the pier cing is provided for said reservoir, which remain embedded within said crown-cap and can be readily removed therewith, thus freeing the bottle inlet for use of the content of the bottle.
- reference numeral 1 denotes a crown-cap closure preferably of plastic material, according to the present invention and including a reservoir 2 with breakable bottom 3 which is accomodated within the neck of a bottle 4.
- Said reservoir 2 containing a generally powdery material which is allowed to fall town into the liquid in said bot- tie 4 by piercing through of the bottom thereof, is of well known type and comprises a circumferentially continuous ridge 5 for interfering with the inner portion of the neck of said bottle 4, and an annular edge 6 overlapping the annular edge 7 of the bottle neck.
- said crown-cap 1 Internally of and coaxially therewith said crown-cap 1 has a preferably hollow piercing plunger 8, made in a unitary body with said crown-cap, having the free end 9 slantwise cut and housing in said reservoir 2.
- the crown-cap 1 comprises a skirt 10 having at its lower edge 11 an inner annular ridge 12 for engagement upon transitory elastic deformation with the bottle inlet edge, as shown in Figure 2.
- a tearing removable strip 15 as defined by two circumferential parallel weakening or breaking lines 16 and 17, a gripping tab or tongue 13 being provided for aiding in tearing.
- said tearing removable strip 15 is internally and at a suitable height provided with at least one continuous ridge 15' (or a plurality of discontinuous ridges) for abutment with the top portion of the annular edge 6 of the reservoir 2 and suitable to prevent the skirt 10 from vertically moving when a casual pressure is exerted on the top portion 14 of the crown-cap 1, and accordingly to prevent any accidental piercing of reservoir 2.
- the reservoir 2 Upon piercing (Figure 3), the reservoir 2 remains embedded within the crown-cap 2, both due to friction between the puter portion of the piercing plunger 8 and the inside of the reservoir, and due to friction between the edge 6 of said reservoir and the inner surface of the portion 19 of the skirt 10 of said crown-cap, so that the reservoir can be removed together with the crown-cap 1 from the bottle 4 by exerting a simultaneous tractive and torsional stress on said portion 19 of skirt 10 which is to this end provided as knurled .
- the removal of the reservoir 2 is greatly facilitated because of the substantial increase in gripping due to the top portion 19 of the skirt of the guarantee crown-cap.
- the useful height of the portion 19 of said skirt is preferably greater than or equal to the distance as vertically measured between the corners of the slantwise cut end 9 of the piercing plunger 8, and this to provide a nearly complete breakage of the bottom 3 of reservoir 2 and accordingly to facilitate the fall of the powdery material therein contained into the bottle 4.
