Definitions

  • Childproof is commonly used to designate safety shutter devices which require, for the opening of the bottle, flask or other container to which they are subjected, a complex operation which is likely to protect the contents of the container from children.
  • Devices of this type known in practice generally include (see in particular EP-A-369 166 HENKEL) an upper transverse bottom with circular profile which is connected to two concentric cylindrical skirts.
  • the inner skirt has a thread which is intended to cooperate with the thread of the neck of the container to ensure the fixing of the device by screwing, while the outer skirt is interrupted longitudinally by at least one opening to make room for a tilting locking lug.
  • this ear In the vicinity of its lower edge, this ear is provided with a projecting tooth which is intended to cooperate with a stop or relief provided at the base of the neck of the container to prevent rotation of the device in the direction corresponding to the unscrewing. For opening the user must therefore exert pressure on the ear to allow, by tilting, the tooth to escape the stop by allowing unscrewing.
  • each ear is placed at the level of the outer skirt in order to be easily pressed by the user, it is made integral with the inner skirt of the device by a transverse web forming a pivot hinge.
  • the invention consists in making the pivot pivot of the ear in the form of two opposite lateral bridges which join, in the same transverse plane parallel to the bottom of the device, the longitudinal edges of the ear to the edges of the lateral opening of the outer skirt.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a closure device according to the invention and the neck of the corresponding container.
  • Fig. 2 is an elevational view of one of the locking ears.
  • Fig. 3 is a partial axial section along the plane indicated in III-III in FIG. 4.
  • Fig. 4 is a cross section along the plane indicated in IV-IV in FIG. 3.
  • Fig. 5 and 6 are sections similar to those of FIG. 3 and 4, representing the ear, no longer in the locked position, but when unscrewing the device.
  • Fig. 7 is a perspective view similar to that of FIG. 1, but corresponding to another embodiment of the device.
  • Fig. 8 and 9 are axial sections showing the device in FIG. 7 in the locked position, respectively when unscrewing.
  • the device comprises, in the manner known per se, a transverse bottom 1 secured on the one hand to a threaded inner skirt 2 adapted to cooperate with the thread 3 has a neck 3, on the other hand an outer skirt 4 which is interrupted by two diametrically opposite openings to make room for two tilting locking ears 5.
  • Each ear 5 has, on its inner wall, a projecting tooth 5 a which is provided radially at its lower edge to cooperate with a relief or stop 3 b of the neck 3.
  • each ear 5 are joined to the longitudinal edges of the opening of the outer skirt 4 by two bridges 6 oriented along the same transverse axis parallel to the bottom 1, said bridges thus defining an axis for pivoting of the intended ear. It is also joined at the bottom 1 by two guarantee pins 7, capable of being easily torn by compression during the first operation of the device when unclogging.
  • the two bridges 6 and the two pins 7 allow, during molding, the passage of the synthetic material necessary for the formation of each ear 5.
  • the bridges 6 have sufficient deformability to allow easy pivoting, whatever the nature of the resin used. Furthermore, the amplitude of the angular tilting of each ear can be adjusted without constraint by means of an appropriate positioning of the plane defined by the two bridges 6.
  • Fig. 7-9 illustrate the application of the invention to a closure device of the type "childproof" wherein the transverse end wall 10 comprises a central hole 10 a adapted to be plugged with an axial boss 11 provided at the center of a articulated cover 11.
  • the bottom 10 is connected to an internal skirt 12 which is screwed onto the thread 13 has a neck 13, and to an external skirt 14 which is equipped, opposite the hinge of the cover 11 of a tilting locking lug 15, which is joined to the outer skirt 14 by two lateral bridges 16 opposite one another.
  • the base of the ear 15 has a tooth 15 a which projects radially outwards, while its upper transverse edge has a flange 15 b which surmounts a horizontal lip 15 c .
  • the lower tooth 15 a cooperates with one of three stops 13 b provided at the base of the neck 13, which prohibits the unscrewing of the closure device.
  • the flange 15 b retains a spout 11 b provided on the articulated cover 11, opposite the hinge. The cover 11 is thus held in place by the projection 11 sealingly introduced into the hole 10a of the base 10; access to the contents of the container is therefore prohibited.
