Definitions

  • the invention relates to a combination of a tamper-evident closure and a container opening referred to in the preamble of claim 1 Art.
  • plastic bottles such as e.g. made of PET, HDPE, etc., which are sealed with a screw cap a significant proportion.
  • a soft sealant is introduced into the relevant area of the cap of the screw cap and provided the locking ring with radially or axially arranged ratchet teeth.
  • the aim of such training is to keep as small as possible when opening a bottle, the rotation angle by which the screw can be opened without the circlip is released from the cap.
  • Such an embodiment was, for example, by the DE 699 16 520 T2 presented.
  • This document shows a combination of bottle mouth and screw cap with locking ring, locking and ratchet teeth are arranged in different numbers. Also, this document shows a bottle mouth, in which the ratchet teeth are not arranged on the entire circumference of the bottle mouth, but only on two sections.
  • the object of the invention while avoiding the disadvantages indicated, is to further develop a combination of a tamper-evident closure and a container opening according to the preamble of claim 1 in such a way that this combination results from the resulting, particularly small stop angles without damaging the tamper-evident closure only those angles of rotation are possible in which seal and sealing surface of the bottle cap do not lose their sealing effect.
  • Figures 1 and 2 is shown in global form with 1 a combination of a general guarantee closure on a neck 2 of a bottle.
  • a guarantee closure can of course be arranged on different containers, suitable containers or related opening necks, in particular with the formation according to the invention to be described below be.
  • a cap and bottle neck combination is described below.
  • the closure 1 consists of a closure cap 3 and a guarantee or tamper evident ring 4.
  • the cap is internally provided with a single or multi-start thread 5, which is in engagement with an external thread 6 provided on the neck 2. With 7 an externally attached to the cap 3 corrugation is called.
  • An annular and thin-walled edge in the interior of the cap 3 is denoted by 8, which may also be provided or injected as a sealant for the frontal seal.
  • the tamper evident ring 4 is internally provided with a plurality of axial ratchet teeth 9 which may be sawtoothed. They are in operative connection with a corresponding number of ratchet teeth 10, which may also be formed like a sawtooth and are attached to the neck 2 of the bottle.
  • the locking and locking teeth 9, 10 are aligned so that they engage each other during the application and tightening of a closure 1 at the neck of the bottle.
  • the cap 3 and the tamper-evident ring 4 are firmly connected to each other via a ring-weakened zone 11 material. They are designed to tear apart when opened for the first time along this weakened zone.
  • the zone 11 consists of circumferentially arranged incisions 12, 14 which lie on peripheral lines 13, 15 which are at a small distance 16 to each other. Instead of such cuts 12, 14 and not shown separating webs can be arranged.
  • the attachment of the closure 1 on the neck 2 of the bottle is done by screwing the thread 5 on the thread 6. During the screwing takes the cap 3 in its rotation with the tamper evident ring 4, so that during the screw locking and locking teeth 9,10 into engagement come.
  • Figure 3 of the drawing shows an embodiment of an inventive arrangement of the individual locking elements and their effect on each other. Accordingly, a plurality of mutually the same angular distance ⁇ having locking teeth 10 are distributed to the circumference of the bottle neck 2, which are assigned, for example, a reduced by one number of locking teeth 9 on the inner surface of the tamper evident ring 4. These ratchet teeth have the same angular distance ⁇ to each other.
  • the stop angle 19 of the associated locking and locking teeth 9,10 changes steadily.
  • at least one pair 20 such locking elements 9,10 at final sealing contact pressure of the cap 1 on the front edge of the opening neck 2 of a bottle a gap-free, but at least a nearly distance-free locking connection forms, whereby without damaging the tamper-evident closure only such a small Rotation angle is made possible, in which the sealing function of the screw cap is reliably maintained.
  • two ratchet teeth 10 are arranged on the neck 2 and a number of twenty-one ratchet teeth 9 are arranged in the manipulation detection ring 4. Due to the different number and their arrangement are not all locking and locking teeth 10.9 evenly guided into the detent position, but one by one rest individually, resulting in only a small difference between the possible achievement or failure to reach a last detent position due to the selected number.
  • This difference is 0.86 ° for the selected number of teeth due to the rotation angle of a 20 ° division of 18 ° and a 21 ° division of 17.14 °.
  • the axial height difference resulting from the opening of the closure is only 0.12 mm, resulting in a significantly improved sealing effect and system accuracy.
  • the locking and locking teeth 9,10 are expediently arranged on the respective outer and inner sheath. Also, the frontal attachment is also conceivable. Also, a combination with the arrangement of a neck collar of the opening neck is possible.
  • the design of the locking and locking teeth 9,10 can be made in the form of depressions or elevations. Depending on the requirements, such locking elements may also be provided on different or more levels, wherein an arrangement in two planes with mutually offset angle ranges is conceivable.
  • cooperating latching elements may extend along an inclined line, such a line may correspond, for example, the pitch of the thread on the container or opening neck 2.
  • the locking teeth 10 may also be arranged such that they each have not the same angular distance ⁇ to each other. Rather, these can also be arranged at different angular intervals, whereby in connection with the ratchet teeth 9, a further reduced residual stop angle can be achieved.
  • different angular distances may be provided additionally or else exclusively at the locking teeth 9.
  • locking and locking teeth 10, 9 may be provided in the same number, in which case a particularly small residual stop angle is achieved in that locking and / or locking teeth 10, 9 each have different angular distances.
