Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a drinking can comprising two flat or substantially flat end walls, one of which is provided with a tear-off lip connected to a ring for tearing off this lip.
  • An object of the invention is now to propose an original solution for the problems set forth hereinabove.
  • a cylindrical mouth piece is fixed, on the inner side of the drinking can, onto said tear-off lip, the connection between this mouth piece and the tear-off lip is provided laterally of the mouth piece in such a manner that when tearing off the tear-off lip, the mouth piece projects through the opening formed thereby in the end wall, and the mouth piece shows a base portion provided with hook shaped projections designed to receive the edge of said opening so as to ensure a liquid tight seal between mouth piece and the respective end wall.
  • a grid is provided within said mouth piece.
  • said mouth piece is made at least partially according to the accordion principle.
  • Figure is a longitudinal section, which has been kept schematically, through a drinking can according to the invention prior to opening thereof.
  • Figure 2 is a top plan view on the drinking can according to Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 is a longitudinal section, which has been kept schematically, through a drinking can according to the invention after having opened it.
  • Figure 4 is a top plan view on the drinking can according to Figure 3.
  • the drinking can shown in these figures is of the standard type comprising a cylindrical body 1 and two substantially flat end faces 2 and 3.
  • 2 is the upper and 3 the lower end wall.
  • a cylindrical mouth piece 6 is now connected to this tear-off lip 5.
  • the connection between the cylindrical mouth piece 6 and the tear-off lip 5 has been indicated with reference 7.
  • a base portion 8 To the bottom of the cylindrical mouth piece 6 (seen in the use position) is connected a base portion 8, the circumference of which is somewhat larger than the circumference of the opening achieved upon tearing off the tear-off lip.
  • circumference is meant the profile of the base portion considered in top plan view as shown in Figure 4.
  • a grid 9 is applied which makes intrusion of insects entirely impossible.
  • the base portion 8 is provided with four hook shaped projections 10 which snap over the edge of the opening formed by tearing off the tear-off lip 5, when pulling the cylindrical mouth piece 6 upwards. In this way, a satisfying connection is achieved between the base portion and the end wall 2 of the drinking can.
  • the small stopper 11 In order to be able to drink, the small stopper 11 has to be removed from the end wall 2. This can be done very easily since the connection between this small stopper and the thin metallic end wall 2 is technically well feasible.
  • the small stopper 11 may be stuck for example in a temporary sealing membrane connected to the metallic end wall.
  • a possible variant embodiment of the here-described mouth piece consists in making this piece in the form of an accordion. This enables to compress the cylindrical mouth piece.
  • the drinking can according to the invention provides an original solution for the problems as they have been set forth in the preamble.
