Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of overcapping caps for wine bottles. sparkling wines, typically champagne, and more particularly the case of headdresses provided with easy opening means.
  • these caps are typically applied to champagne bottles and they contribute greatly to the dressing and to the improvement of their aesthetics.
  • the opening of the cap by the consumer either by pulling on the "Tircell" strip, or by cutting the cap following the dashed or dotted lines, most often leads to folds or untimely tears, because these caps being relatively sheet-based or relatively thin, the tear of the cap does not necessarily follow the lines of weakness provided and marked in advance, which can lead to a slight appearance aesthetic and totally random.
  • these sparkling wines are bottled closed by corks often with corks ensuring the cork is held and the bottle closed even in the event of accidental overpressure. It is therefore important that the opening of the cap releases the plug and the wire cap when the latter is present.
  • the invention relates to a cap which allows, in a single manual gesture, removal regular of the entire upper part of the cap, the upper part being that which covers said muselet, without any alteration of the lower part of the cap which covers the part of the neck of the bottle located below the wire, so as to keep on the bottle the maximum of cap with its esthetic aspect, not altered, while allowing the plug to be removed.
  • the height H is typically between 15 and 50 mm in the case of containers or bottles of sparkling wine, and between 5 and 25 mm in the case of containers or bottles still wine.
  • said joining means can also be constituted by a staple hung under the glass neck of the neck, or by the cooperation of a threaded cap and threaded ring.
  • the weakening line When the securing means consists of a wire cap with an opening twist, the weakening line must be at a height such that, the cap being applied to said neck, it is slightly below the twist opening, under the glass ring. It is the same when the securing means is constituted by a staple, because the ends of the staple, like the opening twist, hang under the glass ring which forms a constricted circular part.
  • the joining means can be constituted by the cooperation of a threaded glassware ring and a capsule with a threaded skirt. In this case, the line of weakness is located just below the lower end of said threaded skirt.
  • the Applicant has therefore observed the advantage of these means to achieve the objective, namely the removal of the upper part of the cap in its entirety and with a single gesture by pulling between the thumb and the index finger of one hand, the other hand holding the bottle, without altering the lower part of the cap and its decoration.
  • the cap according to the invention therefore allows correct opening of the cap and under "standard" opening conditions.
  • Figures 1 to 5 are partial side views of caps (1) according to the state of the art obtained by rolling a developed skirt and gluing the axial edges (60,61) and having different easy opening means placed on the skirt (4).
  • the easy opening means are "tircell" (41) oriented with the end oriented in a more or less inclined manner.
  • the means is a double weakening line (42), and a single line (40) in FIG. 5. These means allow in principle to remove the upper part (10) of the cap (1) and leave the lower part (11) on the bottle.
  • Figure 6 is a side view of a conical cap (1) according to one embodiment of the invention.
  • Figures 6a and 6b relate to the upper part of caps (1) in the form of overcapping capsules for bottles (2) of still wines, closed by a cork.
  • Figure 6a is a schematic sectional view along the vertical axis
  • Figure 6b is a side perspective view on which we can see the opening tab (46) positioned between the high weakening lines (43) and low (44), the latter being located on the glass ring (20) of the bottle (2), the skirt (4) of the cap being crimped under the glass ring (20).
  • Figure 7 is a side view of a bottle neck (7) provided with a cap (1) according to the invention where the tongue (46) is shown in the unfolded position, ready to be taken hand by the consumer, the tongue being, before opening, not deployed and plated as shown in dotted lines in the figure, so as not to overflow the rest of the cap and risk being pulled accidentally.
  • Figure 8 is a side view, similar to Figure 7, after the consumer has pulled on the tab (46) to form the opening strip (45), and thus discovered the wire hood (3) which includes a tightening wire (30) passing under the glass ring and a tightening eyelet (31).
  • FIG. 9 represents what is obtained at the end of easy opening of said cap, the upper part (10) of the cap comprising the head (5) which remains integral with the strip opening (46).
  • Figure 10 is a sectional view of the neck (7) of a bottle (2) showing what is obtained after removal of the upper part of the cap (10), with a covering wire (3) a plug (8) and holding it in position thanks to a tightening wire (30) passing under the glass ring (20) of the neck of the bottle, and with a lower part (11) of the cap (1) held in place on the neck (7).
  • Figures 12a to 15b similar to Figures 11a and 11b, show other methods of the invention.
  • the layers of adhesive on the lower part (66) are represented by vertical hatching
  • the reinforcing layers (67) are represented by horizontal hatching

  • FIG. 17a the top reinforcement (47) is formed by two strips, each being close to a line of weakness (43,44).
  • the top reinforcement (47) is formed of a thin bead or thread of material plastic placed along the lines of weakness (43, 44) and along the tongue (46).
  • the lower part (65) of the press (6) comprises a strip of reinforcement coated with an activatable adhesive layer (68).
  • the top reinforcement (47) has a variable width which increases all first - if we take the tongue (46) as the origin - then decrease. Its edge lower (471) adjoins the lower line of weakness (44), while its upper edge (470) adjoins the high weakening line (43).
  • the top reinforcement (47) is constituted by a series of cords or nets (48) plastic or varnish extending from a line of weakness (43) to the other (44).
  • the press (6) has a low reinforcement (67) also formed of the same cord or net.
  • the top reinforcement (47) is a track forming a conductive mouth which can be used for detection purposes.
  • the top reinforcement has a end (472) which extends beyond said tongue (46) as in FIG. 18a, the part low (65) having a part (66) coated with a layer of activatable adhesive.

It may be advantageous for this weakening line not to extend over the entire periphery of the cap and to form a partial weakening line (430), so that the head (5) of the cap remains integral with the opening strip (45). This partial weakening line (430) extends over an angle ⁇ typically ranging from 240 to 320 °.
  • the grip tab (46) is typically positioned along a generatrix of said cone and located between said two weakening lines (43, 44) and integral with said opening strip (45), said tab (46) using said notches ( 460,461) for automatically directing the tearing force when said cap is opened towards the said two weakening lines, so as to easily open said cap, ensuring the integrity of the remaining bottom part (11) of said cap located below said bottom line (44), and releasing said wire cap (3) in case it is present.
  • FIGS. 21a to 21d different types of tongues (46) are shown according to the invention.
  • Said tongue (46) may include notches or recesses (460, 461) formed in said film or sheet material constituting said cap, notches which constitute the means for orienting the tearing force of said strip (45).
  • the width L 1 of said tongue (46) ranges from 0.5.L to L, with L ranging from 1.5 to 4 cm. All the cap figures according to the invention (FIGS. 6 to 20) have a tongue (46), bordered in the axial direction by a high notch (460) and a low notch (461).
