Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container closure with a cap according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Container closures are known in large numbers.
  • a container closure is described in CH-PS 556 274, in which the cap is designed as a screw cap. By simply turning the screw cap, this container closure can be opened, since the closure segments are designed as threaded segments.
  • a container closure with a rotary cap which has an opening which can be brought into correspondence with the openings in the container.
  • latching cams are provided which lock the cap in a locking position. To unlock, it is necessary to overcome a resistance which is provided by the locking device.
  • This container closure also has the disadvantage that the locking resistance can be easily overcome by unauthorized persons, in particular also by children, so that the container contents can be accessed by turning the rotating cap.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a container closure which has a higher degree of security against unauthorized opening.
  • the container closure offers a higher degree of security since the cap can be rotated as desired without opening or exposing an opening. Unauthorized persons, especially children, cannot easily see that the cap has to be pressed in at the indentation areas, so that the container closure ensures a high level of security. Nevertheless, the container closure can be opened very easily by pressing in the indentation areas.
  • Claim 2 describes a particularly simple embodiment of the container closure.
  • the closure segments are released by pressing in the impression regions and the cap can be lifted off.
  • Claim 4 describes a particularly secure configuration of the container closure, since it is necessary here to press in all four indentation areas simultaneously in order to be able to lift off the cap. However, this is only possible with two hands, with two pairs of fingers each having to grip the cap crosswise.
  • the cap can have any layout, which can be circular, oval or polygonal.
  • an embodiment according to claim 5 is advantageous since the corner regions then simultaneously indicate where the indentation regions are.
  • the cap jacket can always have a constant thickness along its circumference.
  • an embodiment according to claim 6 is advantageous, which on the one hand makes it easier to press in the cap shell and on the other hand ensures a more targeted expansion of the expansion area.
  • the expansion of the expansion area and thus the disengagement of the closure segment can be improved by developing the container closure according to claim 7.
  • the safety properties of the container closure can be further improved by a configuration according to claim 8.
  • training according to claim 9 is particularly advantageous.
  • the safety properties of the container closure guarantee a certain guarantee function.
  • the training according to claim 10 is particularly suitable for this.
  • the cap is made of plastic and is suitable for containers made of plastic as well as other materials, especially glass.
  • the container closure shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has a cap 2 with a circular cross section, which is attached to a container holder 4 which is provided with a circumferential sealing bead.
  • the cap portion 8 of the cap 2 has indentation areas 10, 12 at two diametrically opposite points, which are deformable relative to one another and thereby press expansion areas 14, 16 lying radially between the indentation areas 10, 12, such as the dot-dash shape changes in FIGS. 1 and 2 can be removed.
  • Closure segments 18, 20, which are arranged in pairs and which engage under the sealing bead 6, are arranged in pairs on the expansion regions 14, 16 on the inside of the cap jacket 8.
  • the cap jacket 8 is provided on the inside of the indentation areas 10, 12 with projecting locking cams 22 which are ineffective in the unlocked position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the locking cams 22 interact with locking cams 34 on the container holder 4, which contain locking recesses 24.
  • this latching device has the effect that in this locking position the indentation areas 10, 12 cannot be pressed in, since they rest on the locking cams 23. Since the latching recesses 24 are undercut, as can be seen from FIG. 2, the latching cams 22 in the locked state further strengthen the hold of the cap 2 on the container holder 4.
  • the latching device also prevents the cap 2 from being pivoted out of the locked position into the unlocking position of FIG. 1 prevented.
  • the cap jacket 8 is provided on the outside at the indentation areas 10, 12 with finger recesses 26, which are aligned in the unlocking position with finger recesses 28 which are arranged on the outside of the container.
  • the finger troughs 26 on the cap shell 8 on the one hand denote the indentation areas 10, 12 of the cap shell and, when they match the finger troughs 28 on the container, indicate the unlocked position of the container closure.
  • Figures 3 to 6 show a further container closure with a cap 30 which has a polygonal, i.e. has a square floor plan.
  • the cap 30 is placed on a container holder 32, which in turn is provided with a circumferential sealing bead 34.
  • the cap shell 36 is provided with an indentation area 38. Between the indentation areas 38 there are expansion areas 40 with closure segments 42 which engage behind the circumferential closure bead 34.
  • the container closure is equipped with a guarantee device, which has guarantee bands 44, which are formed in the corner regions of the cap 30 at the lower edge of the cap shell 36.
  • the guarantee bands lie radially on the safety cams of the container holder 32 and on the one hand prevent unauthorized twisting of the cap 30 or on the other hand prevent the pressing-in areas 38 from being pressed in. As long as the guarantee bands 44 are intact, this is a guarantee that the container is still in its original condition.
  • Figures 7 and 8 show a further container closure, which is designed similar to that of Figures 3 to 6.
  • the cap 48 has a square outline and is arranged on the container holder 50, which is provided with a circumferential sealing bead 52. With this closure points the cap jacket 54 only two indentation areas 56 arranged at opposite corner areas. At a corner lying between the indentation areas 56, the cap jacket is designed as an expansion area 58 and contains a locking segment 60 which engages behind the locking bead 52 of the container holder 50.
  • the cap shell 54 is configured at the corner opposite the expansion region 58 such that practically no expansion of the cap shell takes place when the indentation regions 56 are pressed in.
  • Two further closure segments 62 are arranged between the indentation areas 56 and the fourth corner of the cap 48, which also engage behind the closure bead 52.
  • the closure segments 60, 62 are evenly distributed over the circumference of the container holder 50.
  • the cap jacket 54 is designed such that when pressure is applied to the push-in areas 56, the expansion takes place practically exclusively at the expansion area 58, while the cap jacket 54 at the opposite corner remains practically unchanged.
  • weakening points 64, 66 are arranged on the indentation areas 56 and on the expansion area 58, which facilitate the indentation of the cap portion 54 on the indentation area 56 and promote the buckling of the cap portion on the expansion area 58.
  • the cap jacket is tapered in the area 68 between the push-in area 56 and the closure segment 62 and stiffened in the area 70 between the push-in area 56 and the expansion area 58.
  • the container closure according to FIGS. 7 and 8 is provided with a guarantee tape analogous to the example in FIGS. 3 to 6.
