Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cap for containers with a hygienic safety cover for safe use.
  • covers have been designed, which are capable of preventing access to the supply opening before the container is used.
  • cover elements of the dome- or box-shaped type in general have been created, which are fitted over the cap itself, preventing access until said element has been removed.
  • the supply area of the liquid present in the container is thus preserved in a perfectly hygienic way.
  • An objective of the present invention is consequently to produce a cap for containers with a hygienic safety cover for safe use of the type described above, which is definitely hygienic with respect to what has been produced so far, has an easy opening and is capable of solving the above-mentioned problems and drawbacks.
  • Another objective of the present invention is to produce a simple cap at a reduced cost.
  • a further objective of the present invention is to provide a cap of the type described above, which, although effective, is simple and particularly functional, and also easy and rapid to produce.
  • Yet another objective is to provide a cap which can be easily adapted to containers already known.
  • the cap 10 for containers (not shown), such as bottles, phials, etc., envisages, as already mentioned, a hygienic safety cover 12 for safe use, situated above a valvular element 13, which is positioned above a mouth of a container (not shown).
  • the valvular element 13 is, for example, of the type consisting of a cylindrical obturator 14 situated in a cylindrical annular housing 15 lying in an upper cylindrical portion 16 of a body 11 of the cap 10.
  • the cylindrical obturator 14 is of the type which can be moved between a first position, lifted and extracted, which allows the outflow by gravity of the liquid contained in the container, and a second position, as shown in figure 2, which prevents said outflow.
  • the cover 12 comprises an outer removable element, which provides a hygienic cover for the internal valvular element.
  • Said outer element consists of an inner box-shaped portion 17, an enlarged outer portion 18 and a safety ring 19.
  • the inner box-shaped portion 17 is buffered against a facing upper outer surface 20 of the fixed part of the valvular element, closing said valvular element with respect to the outside environment.
  • the enlarged outer portion 18 extends at least partially around the inner box-shaped portion 17 and is hooked to the body 11 of the cap, for example, by inserting one of its curved annular ends 21 in an annular groove 22 of the body 11 of the cap.
  • a series of separate sections are thus created around the enlarged outer portion 18 which are empty and which cover a part of the enlarged outer portion 18. In these parts of the enlarged outer portion 18 there is a pass-through opening or window 24 for the passage of air.
  • the enlarged outer portion 18 can envisage, as in the example illustrated, a section sloping outwards 18a and a cylindrical section 18b; the above pass-through opening 24 for air is generally situated in this specific outward sloping section 18a.
  • a safety ring 19 is envisaged, which is connected by means of a series of frangible bridges 25 to the enlarged outer portion 18.
  • the safety ring 19 blocks the cover or outer removable element 12 on the body 11 of the cap.
  • the figures show, in fact, the cap arranged in a closed position on a mouth of a container (not illustrated).
  • the first operation to be effected is to remove the cover 12 which is situated above the body 11 of the cap, i.e. as a protection of the valvular element 13.
  • the removal of the hygienic safety cover 12 involves breaking the frangible bridges 25 in order to remove both the inner box-shaped portion 17 and also the enlarged outer portion 18 from the safety ring 19.
  • Said cover 12 in fact, comprises radial tongues 23 which extend from the inner box-shaped portion 17 creating channels for the passage of air between the narrow top of the box-shaped portion 17 and the lower enlarged outer portion 18.
  • a cap for containers with a hygienic safety cover for safe use is therefore produced, which solves the problems relating to covers of this type of the known prior art.
  • cap according to the present invention all the drawbacks of caps of this type so far known and used, are overcome. Furthermore, the cap is still particularly compact and has a simple construction and assembly, with a reduction in all the relative costs.
