Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closure with automatically opening closure flap, wherein the automatic opening of the closure flap is effected by an elastic, product-carrying tube.
  • EP1427647B1 discloses a closure formed in particular for dispensing beverages with an elastic, product-carrying tube, one end of the tube being fixed in the closure. Furthermore, the closure has a closure cap hinged to the closure body which, in the closed position, squeezes the tube against a sealing element, so that a product delivery is prevented by the corresponding cross-sectional constriction of the tube. To open the closure, the cap must be unlocked and folded so that the tube is upright in its product dispensing position. This must be the Locking container to be fixed in one hand of the user, while the shutter is opened as described above with the other hand.

  • the object is achieved by a closure having the features of claim 1 and a packaging having the features of claim 19.
  • closure according to the invention is that no separate spring element is required for the formation of the self-opening mechanism, since the product-carrying, elastic hose acts both for product delivery from the container and as a spring element. As a result, the self-opening function of the closure can be realized in a very cost-efficient manner.
  • a closure flap in the sense of this application is a closure means arranged on the closure which serves alone or in conjunction with the closure for closing a product discharge opening.
  • flap all the lid suitable for the closure according to the invention, closure caps, pins, plugs and the like are covered by the term flap.

It is particularly preferred to cause a deformation of the hose due to a bending load, wherein one end of the hose is fixed in the closure, while a directed force at the free end of the hose causes a deflection, up to a kinking of the hose. As a result, sufficiently large spring paths between a closing position and a delivery position of the closing flap can be realized.
