Definitions
- Screw cap for closing a bottle or the like
- the invention relates to a screw cap of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1 for closing a bottle or the like.
- a screw cap of the type in question is known from DE 37 44 292 C2, in which the stop for the defined contact of the holding part on the edge of the bottle neck is arranged in such a radial area that it is attached to an end face of the bottle neck when screwed on Facility is coming. Since the sealing part also bears against the edge of the bottle neck, generally further inside, the mutual position of the holding part and sealing part is thereby precisely defined. However, this also defines the magnitude of the force with which the sealing part is pressed against the bottle neck or the seal located therebetween. The consequence of this is that the pressure at which the seal or the sealing part lifts off the end edge of the bottle edge is also precisely determined, ie the pressure relief valve formed as a whole opens.
- the invention has for its object to provide a screw cap of the type in question for closing a bottle or the like, in which the constructive design of the stop is facilitated.
- the object on which the invention is based is achieved by the characterizing part of claim 1.
- the basic idea of this teaching is to arrange the stop on the screw cap so that it does not _ o _
- the stop is arranged on the inner wall of the cylindrical holding part. In this way, in the simplest case, it comes to rest directly on the end of the screw thread facing the front edge of the bottle neck on the outer wall of the bottle neck and thus determines the screw-on depth of the screw cap and, at the same time, the distance of the sealing part from the front edge of the bottle neck. Because of this precisely determined distance, it is possible to arrange a resilient seal between the sealing part and the front edge of the bottle neck, the compression of which can be precisely determined due to the precisely defined distance between the sealing part and the front edge of the bottle neck. This seal is then able to form an overpressure valve. If the pressure inside the bottle exceeds the contact force of the compressed seal, it compresses somewhat further, so that a small gap is formed through which the overpressure escapes can.
- the stop is formed by a stop surface running in a plane perpendicular to the screw axis. This is particularly expedient if there is a circumferential stop surface on the outer surface of the bottle neck.
- the stop surface can also be inclined and directed in the screwing direction, preferably perpendicular to the outlet of the thread towards the front edge of the bottle neck.
- the stop thus limits the screwing on in the screwing direction and thereby also enables an exact determination of the screwing depth of the screw cap and thus of the space for the compressible seal.
- FIG. 1 shows a section through an exemplary embodiment of a screw cap according to the invention
- FIG. 2 shows the screw cap according to FIG. 1, screwed onto the neck of a partially illustrated bottle.
- the screw cap shown in section in Fig. 1 consists of a cylindrical holding part 1, on the inner wall of which there is an internal thread 2.
- the bottom of the screw cap forms a sealing part 3, on the inner wall 4 of which a flexible seal 5, for example made of foam of certain compressibility, bears, preferably held there by gluing, pressing or the like.
- annular stop surface 6 is formed, which is directed in the screwing direction and acts as a stop when screwing on, as can be seen in more detail in FIG. 2.
- the screw cap is screwed onto an external thread 7 of a bottle neck 8, which is only partially shown. It can be seen that the abutment surface 6 rests on the last thread part 10 lying closest to an end edge 9 of the bottle neck 8. As a result, the screw-on depth of the screw cap 10 is limited and precisely defined. At the same time, this creates a gap between the End face 9 of the bottle neck 8 and the bottom 4 of the sealing part 3 defined. In this gap there is the seal 5, which consists of compressible material. By appropriate dimensioning of the thickness of the seal 5 and / or the dimensioning of the gap between the end face 9 and the bottom 4, the force is precisely determined, even after repeated screwing, with which the seal 5 is pressed together and rests on the end face 9. However, this contact force is also decisive for the pressure, when it is exceeded, an overpressure escapes from the inside of the bottle.
