Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hinged lid for drinking vessels with a lid part for covering the opening of the drinking vessel and an articulated holding part connected to the lid part for pivotally holding the lid part on the drinking vessel.
  • Hinged lids of this type are known from beer lids to keep the drink fresh and to protect it from contamination.
  • the holding part is formed by a suitable shape of the handle and is thus firmly connected to the vessel.
  • the lid is operated with the thumb while the vessel is held on the handle.
  • other drinking vessels such as glasses and cups to keep insects away and to keep the contents of the vessel at a temperature.
  • the object of the invention is to develop a hinged lid for drinking vessels, which is easy to manufacture and handle and can be used in as many different ways as possible.
  • the invention is based on the idea of attaching the lid in a non-positive and releasable connection to the edge of the vessel. Accordingly, it is proposed according to the invention that the holding part by a
  • Opening edge of the drinking vessel plug-in clip is formed. This means that all kinds of drinking vessels can be fitted with a hinged lid without any special effort.
  • the attachment to the edge of the vessel allows universal use on any drinking vessel, the connection being easy to establish and quickly detachable.
  • the plug-in clip has a straight support leg for abutment against the outside of the drinking vessel and an arcuate spring leg pointing towards the support leg and elastically spreadable from the support leg under internal pressure on the drinking vessel. Due to the arch shape of the spring leg, the clamping force is largely introduced horizontally and linearly independently of the special edge contour of the drinking vessel, while the support leg acts as a flat counter-holder, so that overall a reliable frictional connection is achieved.
  • the spring leg of the plug-in clip protrudes beyond the free end of the support leg while keeping an insertion gap free.
  • the spring leg of the plug-in clip is connected to the support leg via a connecting section encompassing the opening edge of the drinking vessel, it being possible for a possible bulge of the drinking vessel to be accommodated without impairing the clamping action by a corresponding ring segment-shaped design of the connecting section.
  • the lid part has a circular, spherically curved shape in outline, the underside intended for resting on the opening edge of the drinking vessel being convexly curved. It is achieved in an aesthetically pleasing design that drinking vessels of different diameters always are completely insect-proof. With regard to possible printing, it has also proven to be advantageous if the radius of curvature of the cover part is 1.3 to 1.7 times its diameter.
  • an elongated actuation tab is formed on the top of the cover part and protrudes radially.
  • a further improvement results from the fact that the actuating tab has a free end section which is curved as a finger recess towards the top of the cover part.
  • the cover part is advantageously mounted on the plug-in clamp via a swivel joint. If the axis of rotation extends tangentially with respect to the lid part at a distance from its underside and radially offset outwards, a sufficiently large swiveling range can be achieved with various vessel diameters while maintaining a tight contact, so that unimpeded drinking is possible in the opened position of the lid part.
  • a structurally advantageous embodiment provides that the swivel joint has two bearing tabs protruding from the underside of the actuating tab and encompassing the plug-in clip on the side, each of which is provided with a bearing eye in the region of its free ends. It is also advantageous if the swivel joint has two bearing pins formed on the side of the plug-in bracket, which can be rotatably engaged with the bearing eyes of the bearing tabs.
  • the bearing flaps can have insertion bevels running on their broad sides facing one another, over which the bearing pins can be snapped into the bearing eyes.
  • a further improvement with regard to a favorable arrangement of the axis of rotation results from the fact that the plug-in clip has a central region of its support leg has outwardly protruding bumps, on which the bearing pins protrude laterally in the opposite direction.
  • the underside of the cover part has a recess for the engagement of the connecting section of the plug-in clip that overlaps the opening edge of the drinking vessel. This measure ensures that the lid part in the closed position is tight all around the opening edge of the drinking vessel.
  • a production-technically advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the plug-in clip is made as a one-piece molded part made of plastic, in particular polycarbonate.
  • plastic in particular polycarbonate.
  • the cover part as an injection molded part, consists of a heat-resistant, tough, soft plastic. This ensures, in particular when using polypropylene that is harmless in terms of food chemistry, in addition to the possibility of cleaning the dishwasher, that in the event of a material break, no sharp edges that can be cut result.
  • an advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the plug-in clip has an outer leg for external contact with the drinking vessel and an inner leg for internal contact with the drinking vessel.
  • the swivel joint connecting the plug-in clip to the cover part is arranged in the central region of the outer leg at a radial distance from the drinking vessel. This ensures that the lid part not only performs a pivoting movement with respect to the opening edge of the drinking vessel, but also a radial movement. As a result, the swiveling range of the cover part can be more than 90 ° without a stop position occurring. In addition, when opened, a larger space is created in the opening area of the drinking vessel.
  • the plug-in clip has a bearing arm arranged on the outside on the drinking glass, that the cover part has two downwardly projecting bearing tabs which surround the bearing arm, and that the bearing arm and the bearing tabs at their free ends have a radial one and vertical distance from the opening edge of the drinking vessel arranged pivot joint are connected.
  • the bearing arm is integrally formed in the region of a connecting section of the plug-in clamp that spans the opening edge of the drinking vessel.
  • a further improvement is achieved in that the outer leg spans the bearing arm on its outside facing away from the drinking vessel.
  • the outer and inner legs have clamping plates arranged at the end for contacting the drinking vessel.
  • the clamping plates in their central area are preferably articulated on the outer or inner leg to a limited extent about a horizontal axis via a molded-on film hinge.
  • clamping plates are curved away from one another at their upper and lower edges, forming run-up bevels for the drinking vessel.
  • the plug-in clip with its portion overlapping the opening edge of the drinking vessel, should be able to be pivoted completely through the region of the recess in the lid part, so that a sealing system is achieved even with drinking vessels that expand in diameter.
  • the invention is explained in more detail below on the basis of the exemplary embodiments shown schematically in the drawing. Show it
  • Figure 1 is a vertical section through a hinged lid in the closed position on a broken glass shown.
  • FIG. 2 shows the hinged cover in the opened position in a representation corresponding to FIG. 1;
  • Figure 3 shows the lid part of the hinged lid in a perspective view from below.
  • Fig. 4 the clip of the hinged cover in a perspective view.
  • Fig. 5 shows a further embodiment of a clip in the attached state on a broken glass shown without a lid part in a vertical section.
  • the hinged lid shown in the drawing consists essentially of a lid part 10 and a plug-in clip 14 which is connected to the lid part 10 via a swivel joint 12 and which can be plugged onto the opening edge 16 of a drinking glass 18.
  • the lid part 10 can expediently be pivoted by means of the integrally formed actuating tab 20 between a closed position lying on the opening edge 16 (FIG. 1) and an unfolded position which opens the opening of the drinking glass (FIG. 2).
  • the plug-in clip 14 which is designed as a one-piece injection-molded part made of transparent plastic, has a straight support leg or outer leg
  • the legs 24, 26 of the plug-in clip 14 are designed in the form of strips or leaf springs in order to ensure a sufficiently displaceable mounting.
  • the support leg 24 lies flat against the outside 30 of the drinking glass 18, while the spring leg 26 is elastically spread apart from the support leg 24 with horizontal linear pressure on the inside of the drinking glass. In this way, sufficient clamping force is achieved even with different glass shapes.
  • the spring leg 26 projects beyond the free end of the support leg 24 while keeping an insertion gap 32 free.
  • the connecting section 28 spanning the opening edge 16 is designed to receive an edge bead 34 of the drinking glass 18 in the form of a ring segment.
  • the swivel joint 12 has a horizontal axis of rotation extending tangentially to the cover part 10 or the opening edge 16. This is formed by two bearing journals 36, which are integrally formed on a protrusion 38 protruding on the outside on the support leg 24 and projecting laterally in the opposite direction. As will be explained in more detail below, the bearing journals 36 can be rotatably connected to a corresponding bearing point of the cover part 10.
  • the lid part 10 has a circular, spherically curved shape in outline, the underside 40 resting on the opening edge 16 of the drinking glass 18 being convexly curved.
  • the actuating tab 20 is integrally formed on the top 42 of the cover part 10 so as to protrude radially. It has an upwardly curved free end section 44, which facilitates finger actuation and does not limit the swivel path (FIG. 2).
  • two bearing tabs 46 projecting downward are integrally formed on the underside of the actuating tab 20 at a lateral distance from one another.
  • bearing eyes 48 In the area of their free ends, these are provided with bearing eyes 48, into which the bearing pins 36 of the plug-in clamp 14 can be snapped into place by spreading apart the bearing tabs 46.
  • insertion bevels 50 are provided on the broad sides of the bearing tabs facing one another, which run convergingly toward the bearing eyes 48
  • the plug-in clip 14 there has an outer leg 24 and an inner leg 26 for clamping on the outside or inside of the drinking vessel 18 and a bearing arm 38 'for holding the lid part 10, which is not specifically shown in FIG. 5.
  • the bearing arm 38 ' is integrally formed in the region of the connecting section 28 of the legs 24, 26 and has a foot 56 which projects downwards and lies against the drinking vessel on the outside, and a bracket 58 which is angled radially outwards.
  • the bearing pins 36 which can be snapped into the bearing eyes 48 of the bearing tabs 46 of the cover part 10, are integrally formed in a laterally projecting manner.
  • the legs 24, 26 are provided with clamping plates 62 at their clamping ends.
