As shown in fig. 1 to 5, for convenience of description, a radial direction, a circumferential direction, and an axial direction will be described by establishing a cylindrical coordinate system with respect to the through hole 11 of the first plug 1 as a target, with the vertical direction in the drawings being the vertical direction in the following description.
In one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a bottle cap assembly having a titanium sleeve and a cap body, comprising:
the first plug body 1 is made of elastic materials, a through hole 11 is formed between the upper surface and the lower surface, and the first plug body is embedded in the bottle mouth of the drink container through self compression;
the sleeve 2 penetrates through the through hole 11 along the length direction;
the cap body 3 has elasticity, is provided with an upward opening inside the sleeve 2, and has a set gap with the sleeve 2 in the radial direction of the through hole 11; and
and the second plug body is made of elastic material and can be plugged into the opening of the cap body 3, so that the cap body 3 is forcibly expanded outwards in the radial direction of the through hole 11 to eliminate the set gap.
According to the bottle cap assembly with the titanium sleeve and the cap body, the first plug body 1 is used for achieving sealing connection between the bottle cap assembly with the titanium sleeve and the cap body and a beverage container, the set gap between the sleeve 2 and the cap body 3 is used for enabling beverage to flow out of the bottle cap assembly with the titanium sleeve and the cap body, the second plug body is used for pressing the cap body 3 to achieve gap control of the set gap, the beverage is stopped from flowing out of the bottle cap assembly with the titanium sleeve and the cap body, and the function of selectively opening or closing a container opening of the beverage is achieved. Therefore, before the drink in the container is not drunk up, especially in the case that the original bottle cap or the disposable bottle cap loses the sealing effect, the container of the drink is sealed, and when the container is used continuously, the expansion pressure of the second plug body on the cap body 3 is only removed, so that the drink can flow out from the set gap between the sleeve 2 and the cap body 3.
In some embodiments, in order to ensure stability of the set clearance, the position of the cap body 3 relative to the sleeve 2 is fixed in the axial direction of the through hole 11. In this case, the position of cap 3 relative to sleeve 2 is defined, preventing cap 3 from penetrating too far into sleeve 2, resulting in a reduction or disappearance of the set gap, or cap 3 from approaching too close to the upper surface of sleeve 2, resulting in an increase of the set gap, so that the second stopper no longer has sufficient expansion force to press the set gap, resulting in a failure of the sealing of the cap assembly against the beverage.
In order to fix the axial position of the cap body 3 relative to the sleeve 2, a mechanical matching structure, such as a hook and a snap ring, may be adopted, or an integral structure of the cap body 3 and the sleeve 2 may be processed at the same time, however, in consideration of convenience of engineering implementation, connection stability and implementation cost, in some embodiments, the cap body 3 is fixedly disposed inside the sleeve 2 by means of spot welding, and the number of welding points between the cap body 3 and the sleeve 2 is not less than two.
In order to simultaneously consider the drink flow rate of the bottle cap assembly with the titanium sleeve and the cap body in the opening state and the sealing performance in the closing state, in some embodiments, the gap is set to be 0.1-1 mm.
Preferably, in some embodiments, the set gap is 0.5 mm.
As shown in fig. 4, in some embodiments, the first plug body 1 includes:
a first flange 12 provided on an upper surface of the first plug body 1 and configured to protrude outward in a radial direction of the through hole 11;
an annular groove 13 provided on the outer peripheral surface of the first plug body 1 on the side close to the lower surface; and
and a vent hole 14 that is opened through the outer peripheral surface of the first plug body 1 and communicates with the through hole 11.
The first flange 12 can increase the contact area between the first plug body 1 and the container of the beverage, so as to enhance the sealing performance between the first plug body 1 and the container of the beverage; the annular groove 13 can be compressed by itself after the first plug body 1 is plugged into the mouth of the beverage, so that the contact tightness between the first plug body 1 and the inner wall of the container is improved by a larger compression amount, and the beverage is prevented from leaking between the first plug body 1 and the wall of the container; the vent hole 14 is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the first stopper body 1, and is used to balance the air pressure inside and outside the beverage container when pouring a beverage through the cap assembly having the titanium sleeve and the cap body.
As shown in fig. 3, in some embodiments, the cannula 2 comprises:
a first bead 21 provided on an upper surface of the sleeve 2 and configured to protrude outward in a radial direction of the through-hole 11; and
and a second bead 22 disposed on the lower surface of the sleeve 2 and configured to extend radially outward of the through hole 11 and to be fitted over the lower surface of the first plug body 1.
The first turned edge 21 is used for forming a flow guide channel for beverage to flow out of the bottle cap assembly with the titanium sleeve and the cap body, so that the beverage is poured outwards in a twisted mode, the beverage is prevented from splashing around due to the shape of an outlet, and poor use experience is brought to consumers; the second rolled edge 22 is disposed on the lower surface of the sleeve 2 and is attached to and covers the lower surface of the first stopper body 1, so as to prevent the beverage from contacting the first stopper body 1 and prevent the beverage from penetrating between the first stopper body 1 and the sleeve 2.
As shown in fig. 2, in some embodiments, cap 3 comprises:
the bell mouth 31 is disposed at the opening of the cap body 3, so that the area of the opening of the cap body 3 is gradually increased from bottom to top.
The flared mouth 31 and the first curled edge 21 together limit the outward flow of the beverage, and form an outward expanding opening shape, so that the second plug body can be inserted into the cap body 3 conveniently.
Considering that the sleeve 2 and the cap 3 may come into contact with the beverage in the beverage container, in some embodiments, the sleeve 2 and/or the cap 3 are made of a metallic material, including pure titanium or a titanium alloy.
The titanium or the titanium alloy has the advantages of high strength, good corrosion resistance and high heat resistance, has good memory, can be restored to the original shape in a short time when the second plug body is taken out after being pressed and expanded by the second plug body, has strong biocompatibility, cannot generate adverse effect on a human body, and cannot damage the flavor and the taste of the drink.
In some embodiments, the first plug body 1 and the second plug body are made of a wood material, a rubber material, or a PET material.
Therefore, according to the embodiment of the disclosure, the first plug body 1 is embedded in the container opening of the beverage, and the second plug body is controlled to be plugged into the cap body 3 or taken out of the cap body 3, so that the container opening of the beverage can be selectively opened or closed, the outflow or sealing of the beverage can be flexibly controlled, and the preservation time of the beverage can be prolonged; through sleeve pipe 2 and the cap body 3 of selecting titanium or titanium alloy material to make, can prevent that first cock body 1 or second cock body from contacting with the drink to keep the flavor and the taste of the drink that flows out between sleeve pipe 2 and cap body 3, improve drink consumer's drinking experience and health degree.
