Definitions

  • the present invention relates to containers and container closures.
  • the containers are primarily for food items but could have other uses.
  • a container comprises a fibre board container body comprising a container base and upstanding container sidewalls, and the upper end of the body is closed by a plastics closure, the closure comprising peripheral inner and outer walls between which is received the upper margin of the body sidewalls.
  • the container body is preferably formed of waxed fibre board and is conveniently of similar construction to conventional waxed board drinks containers, such as milk cartons, except that instead of a gabled upper end, the sidewalls terminate in a substantially straight upper edge.
  • An advantage of this is that the container bodies may be handled on existing machines intended for handling conventional waxed board container bodies.
  • a container closure comprises a closure panel integral with a peripheral inner flange upstanding from the margin of the panel, the inner flange being integrally connected with an outer downturned flange by was of an elongate bridge, a downwardly-facing slot being defined between the inner and outer flanges of a dimension to receive as an interference fit the margin of a container body of fibre board or the like.
  • the inner and outer flange together with the annular bridge define a downwardly-opening peripheral slot to receive the upper margin of the container sidewalls.
  • the interference fit may be arranged to be airtight, it will sometimes be desirable to provide a foil seal across the mouth of the container body to make the container airtight. The foil seal will be pierced or removed in use to provide access to the contents.
  • the closure may be intended to be removable from and possibly replaceable on the container, the closure may be provided with an openable dispensing aperture for dispensing contents of the container, or the container body may be perforated to allow removal of the upper margin of the sidewalls whilst attached to the closure, or the container body may be provided with a dispensing outlet, such as a spout attachment.
  • At least one of said inner and outer flanges may be provided with one or more protrusions which are directed towards the other flange for enhancing the gripping action exerted on the upper margin of the container body and/or to improve sealing of the closure with the sidewalls where this is desired .
  • a plurality of protrusions is provided, spaced-apart around the closure margin, some of said protrusions being provided on the inner flange and others being provided on the outer flange.
  • protrusions on the inner flange are staggered from the protrusion on the outer flange in order to provide an increased gripping action on the body margin.
  • the protrusions may be in the form of vertical ribs. Alternatively, or in addition, one or more ribs extending horizontally on the inner or outer flange may be provided.
  • the container body and the closure are preferably of rectangular outline in plan. Accordingly they may be of square shape in plan or of oblong- rectangular shape.
  • Opposite sides of the closure are preferably provided with tabs which extend generally from the bridge towards the centre of the panel and are positioned above the panel. Such tabs can be engaged by a pick-and- place mechanism in handling of the closures.
  • the central region of the panel may carry raised identification material such as a word or logo. Normally this cannot easily be accommodated because a pick-and-place mechanism employing a suction head cannot easily seal with the central region of the panel.
  • the tabs may be used as handles for assisting in removal of the closure from the container body.
  • the closure may be provided with one or more upstanding walls that are adapted to engage with the lower part of the sidewalls of the overlying container body.
  • the closure is provided with a pair of upstanding walls depending from the opposite sides of the closure that are not provided with said tabs, and the bases of the container bodies are provided with additional folds that are adapted to engage with the tabs in order to locate a stacked container in the direction parallel to the closure margins provided with said upstanding walls.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of a first closure in accordance with the invention, the closure being of oblong-rectangular shape in plan;
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view of the closure of Figure 1 , as seen from above and secured on a waxed fibre board container body;
  • Figure 3 is an underplan view of the closure of Figure 1 ;
  • Figure 4 is a side-elevation of the closure of Figure 1 ;
  • Figure 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Figure 1 ;
  • Figure 6 is a section on the line 6-6 of Figure 1 ;
  • Figure 7 is a schematic enlargement of the left hand portion of Figure 6;
  • Figure 8 is a view similar to Figure 7 but of a modification having a different configuration of ribs, and showing the location of a folded container base on tabs of the closure;
  • Figure 9 is a perspective view similar to Figure 2 but of a modification which includes a pair of stacking walls.
  • Figure 10 is a cross-sectional partial view on the line 10-10 of Figure 9.
  • an injection-moulded plastics closure 1 is of oblong-rectangular plan shape, and comprises a rectangular base panel 2 surrounded by an inner vertical flange 3, and an outer vertical peripheral flange 4, a bridging strip 5 connecting the upper edges of flanges 3 and 4, and a sloping lower wall band 6 interconnecting the inner flange 3 with the base panel 2.
  • the outer wall of the inner flange 3 is formed with a plurality of spaced- apart vertical ribs 7, and the inner wall of the outer flange 4 is similarly provided with a plurality of horizontally spaced-apart vertical ribs 8, the ribs 7 and 8 alternating with one another around the margin of the closure.
  • the horizontal spacing-apart of the flanges 3, 4 corresponds to the thickness of the waxed fibreboard of a body 20, Figure 2, of the container, whereby the closure is a tight fit onto the upper margin of the container sidewalls, the ribs 7, 8 digging into the sidewalls to enhance the tightness of the connection.
  • Container body 20 is of similar construction to a conventional waxed board drinks container except for the lack of a gabled upper end.
  • This arrangement of the closure 1 can enable the upper edge of the sidewalls 21 of the body 20 to be a plain edge, i.e. without a terminal reinforcement such as a metal band.
  • Figure 8 shows a modified rib arrangement in which the outer wall of the inner flange 3 is formed with a pair of vertically-spaced horizontal ribs 10, 11 , and the inner wall of the outer flange 4 is formed with a single horizontal rib 12, the ribs 10, 11 , 12 each extending continuously around the margin of the closure 1.
  • the purpose of this rib-arrangement is to improve the air-tightness of the engagement between the closure and the container body. It will be appreciated that the rib arrangement of the closure of Figure 7 will generally enable the closure to be removed, and then re-applied if desired, whereas the rib arrangement of Figure 8 may make it more difficult to remove and re-apply the lid, but with potentially improved sealing.
  • tabs 13 which are inclined upwards at a small angle to the horizontal and lie above the panel 2.
  • the tabs 13 are of arcuate shape in plan. Tabs 13 can be used as finger grips for assisting removal of the closure, and also can be engaged by lugs of a pick-and-place mechanism for handling of the closures.
  • upstanding location walls 14 depend from the corner connection between strip 5 and outer flange 4, the location walls 14 being positioned to abut the lower sidewall 22 of an overlying container body, when one container is stacked upon another.
  • Location of the overlying container in the direction parallel to walls 14 may be provided by engagement of the tabs 13 with additional folds that can be provided in the base of the container body for that purpose, as indicated at 23 in Figure 8.
