LAMP HEAD ADAPTED TO BE MOUNTED ON TOP OF BEVERAGE CAN

The present invention relates to a lamp head adapted to be mounted on top of a bever- age can, the lamp head having an upper side and a lower side, and a snap-fit connector being arranged at the lower side of the lamp head and including one or more snap parts arranged to elastically grip over and interlock with a radially outwards protruding circu- lar edge of the top of the beverage can in order to form a snap-fit connection between the lamp head and the beverage can.

DE 202 16 124 U1 discloses a lighting device adapted to be mounted on top of a bever- age can. The lamp head forms a snap-fit connector including a number of holding ele- ments arranged to elastically grip over and interlock with a radially protruding circular edge of the top of the beverage can in order to form a snap-fit connection between the lamp head and the beverage can. The holding elements are arranged so that they are able to interlock with a radially protruding circular edge having a certain diameter. How- ever, beverage cans come in various sizes having various heights, but also various diam- eters. Although the holding elements of the known lighting device may be provided with a certain flexibility allowing the lighting device to be mounted on beverage cans having a slightly varying diameter of the radially protruding circular edge, such flexibility will neg- atively influence the stability of the arrangement of the lighting device on the beverage can, so that the lighting device may easily tilt or fall off the top of the beverage can.

US 7,040,776 B2 discloses a self-contained illumination device for illuminating medicine container labels in low-light level conditions. The illumination means includes a light source component for illumination, an electrical switch component to control the light source, supporting circuitry components to energize the light source, and a housing structure for supporting and enclosing the components, directing the illumination to the label, and coupling the illumination device to a medicine container receptacle or a con- ventional medicine container cap.

The object of the present invention is to provide a lamp head adapted to be firmly se- cured on top of beverage cans having varying diameters.

DK 2024 70099 A1 2

In view of this object, the lamp head forms a first snap-fit connector including one or more snap parts arranged to elastically grip over and interlock with a radially protruding circular edge having a first outer diameter, the lamp head forms a second snap-fit con- nector including one or more snap parts arranged to elastically grip over and interlock with a radially protruding circular edge having a second outer diameter, and the first outer diameter is larger than the second outer diameter.

In this way, the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector may be accurately formed for gripping over and interlocking with the radially protruding circular edge hav- ing the first outer diameter, and the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit con- nector may be accurately formed for gripping over and interlocking with the radially pro- truding circular edge having the second outer diameter. Thereby, it may be avoided that the snap parts of the snap-fit connectors have to be too flexible in order to be able to grip over different outer diameters of the radially protruding circular edge. On the con- trary, the snap fit connectors may be precisely formed resulting in easy, but firmly mounting of the lamp head on the beverage can.

In an embodiment, the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector are ar- ranged below the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector when the lamp head is arranged with its upper side pointing upwards. Thereby, it is possible to adapt the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector to a first outer diameter of the radially protruding circular edge being relatively only slightly larger than the sec- ond outer diameter of the radially protruding circular edge, to which the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector is/are adapted. If, on the other hand, there should be relatively larger difference between the first and second outer diameter of the radially protruding circular edges, the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector could actually be arranged more or less at the same height position as the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector. In this case, when the lamp head is mounted on a larger diameter can, the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector would be arranged radially inwards the radially protruding circular edge of said can.

DK 2024 70099 A1 3

In a structurally particularly advantageous embodiment, the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector has/have a snap face with at least one radially inner snap point which in a relaxed state of said snap part or parts is arranged at a first radial dis- tance from a central axis of the lamp head, the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector has/have a snap face with at least one radially inner snap point which in a relaxed state of said snap part or parts is being arranged at a second radial distance from the central axis of the lamp head, and the first radial distance is larger than the second radial distance.

In a structurally particularly advantageous embodiment, each one of the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector is arranged on a flexible element on which is also mounted at least one of the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit con- nector. Thereby, for instance, a flexible element may be formed integrally with a snap part of the first snap-fit connector and a snap part of the second snap-fit connector.

In an embodiment, the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector is/are formed by a first radially inwards protruding at least partly ring-formed ridge, and the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector is/are formed by a second radi- ally inwards protruding at least partly ring-formed ridge. Thereby, the at least partly ring-formed ridges may firmly grip over the radially protruding circular edge along a cer- tain length of said edge, thereby resulting in a particular firm mounting of the lamp head on the beverage can.

In an embodiment, the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector and the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector are formed on an inner side of a flexible tubular wall part extending from the lower side of the lamp head. Thereby, a particular firm mounting of the lamp head on the beverage can may be obtained. The flexible tubular wall part may have to be expanded in order for the snap parts of the first and the second snap-fit connector to elastically grip over and interlock with the radially protruding circular edge of the top of the beverage can. Because said flexible wall part is tubular, the wall part may provide good strength to the snap-fit connection and there- fore secure firm and stable mounting of the lamp head on the beverage can.

In a structurally particularly advantageous embodiment, the flexible tubular wall part and the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector and the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector are injection-moulded as one piece.

In an embodiment, the snap face of the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit con- nector and the snap face of the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector are rounded or V-formed seen in a radial cross-section of the first and second snap-fit connectors of the lamp head. Thereby, when pressing the lamp head onto the beverage can, the rounded or V-formed snap faces may cause the one or more snap parts to grad- ually be elastically bend in a radially outwards direction, thereby facilitating the snap-fit connection.

The invention will now be explained in more detail below by means of examples of em- bodiments with reference to the very schematic drawing, in which

In the following, generally, similar elements of different embodiments have been desig- nated by the same reference numerals.

Fig. 1 illustrates a lamp head 1 according to the present invention adapted to be mounted on top of a beverage can 2, 2’. The lamp head 1 may include a not shown re- chargeable battery for an electric light source 30 thereof. The lamp head has an upper side 3 and a lower side 4, and a snap-fit connector 5, 6 is arranged at the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1. The snap-fit connector 5, 6 includes snap parts 7 arranged to elastically grip over and interlock with a radially outwards protruding circular edge 8 of the top of the beverage can 2, 2’ in order to form a snap-fit connection between the lamp head 1 and the beverage can.

In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 4 to 10, the lamp head 1 forms a first snap-fit con- nector 5 including a snap part 7 arranged to elastically grip over and interlock with a ra- dially protruding circular edge 8 having a first outer diameter D1 as indicated in Fig. 2.

Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the lamp head 1 forms a second snap-fit connector 6 including a snap part 7 arranged to elastically grip over and interlock with a radially protruding circular edge 8 having a second outer diameter D2. The first outer di- ameter D1 is larger than the second outer diameter D2.

According to the present invention, the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 may be accurately formed for gripping over and interlocking with the radially protruding cir- cular edge 8 having the first outer diameter D1, and the snap part 7 of the second snap- fit connector 6 may be accurately formed for gripping over and interlocking with the ra- dially protruding circular edge 8 having the second outer diameter D2. Thereby, it may be avoided that the snap parts 7 of the snap-fit connectors 5, 6 have to be too flexible in order to be able to grip over different outer diameters of the radially protruding circular

DK 2024 70099 A1 8 edge 8. On the contrary, the snap fit connectors 7 may be precisely formed resulting in easy, but firmly mounting of the lamp head 1 on the beverage can 2, 2’.

As seen for instance in Figs. 6 and 9, the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 is arranged below the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 when the lamp head 1 is arranged with its upper side 3 pointing upwards. Thereby, it is possible to adapt the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 to a first outer diameter D1 of the radially protruding circular edge 8 being relatively only slightly larger than the second outer di- ameter D2 of the radially protruding circular edge 8, to which the snap part 7 of the sec- ond snap-fit connector 6 is adapted. If, on the other hand, there should be relatively larger difference between the first and second outer diameter D1, D2 of the radially pro- truding circular edges 8, the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 could actually be arranged more or less at the same height position as the snap part of the second snap-fit connector 6. In this case, when the lamp head 1 is mounted on a larger diameter can 2, the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 would be arranged radially in- wards the radially protruding circular edge 8 of said can.

In the embodiment illustrated in Fig. 9, seen in radial cross-section, the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 has a snap face 9 with a radially inner snap point 10 which in a relaxed state of said snap part is arranged at a first radial distance RD1 from a cen- tral axis CA of the lamp head 1. Similarly, seen in radial cross-section, the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 has a snap face 9 with a radially inner snap point 10 which in a relaxed state of said snap part or parts is being arranged at a second radial distance RD2 from the central axis CA of the lamp head 1. The first radial distance RD1 is larger than the second radial distance RD2. In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 4 to 10, the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 has the form of one ring-formed ele- ment, as discussed in further detail below, and in this case, the radially inner snap point 10 seen in the illustrated cross-section has the form of a circle. In this embodiment, the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 also has the form of one ring-formed ele- ment and the radially inner snap point 10 thereof likewise has the form of a circle.

DK 2024 70099 A1 9

In a typical example, referring to Fig. 2, the first outer diameter D1 of the radially pro- truding circular edge 8 may be approximately in the range of 53.83 to 54.02 millimetres and the second outer diameter D2 of the radially protruding circular edge 8 may be ap- proximately in the range of 51.55 to 51.85 millimetres. In this case, referring to Fig. 9, a suitable first radial distance RD1 could be less than 26.85 millimetres, preferably less than 26.80 millimetres, and most preferred 26.6 +/- 0.15 millimetres. A suitable second radial distance RD2 could be less than 25.76 millimetres, preferably less than 25.73 milli- metres, and most preferred 25.55 +/- 0.15 millimetres. However, suitable dimensions may vary according to the flexibility of the material of the snap-fit connectors 5, 6, among other factors.

Thereby, it is possible to adapt the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 to a first outer diameter D1 of the radially protruding circular edge 8 being relatively only slightly larger than the second outer diameter D2 of the radially protruding circular edge 8, to which the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 is adapted.

In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 4 to 10, the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit con- nector 5 is arranged on a flexible element 11 on which is also mounted the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6. In this case, the flexible element 11 has the form of a flexible tubular wall part 14 extending from the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1.

In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 11 to 14, each one of the snap parts 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 is arranged on a flexible element 11 on which is also mounted the snap parts 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6. Also in this case, the flexible element 11 has the form of a flexible tubular wall part 14 extending from the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1.

In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 17 to 19, each one of the snap parts 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 is arranged on a flexible element 11 on which is also mounted one of the snap parts 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6. In this case, a number of clamp- ing elements 15 each form a flexible element 11 which has been bent from a metal strip

DK 2024 70099 A1 10 to form both a snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 and a snap part 7 of the sec- ond snap-fit connector 6. However, the flexible elements 11 could also be made of plas- tic or any other suitable material. The clamping elements 15 are arranged on a circle and are mutually spaced. As seen, the clamping elements 15 are arranged inside a tubular wall part 16 extending downwards from the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1.

In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 4 to 10, the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit con- nector 5 is formed by a first radially inwards protruding at least partly ring-formed ridge 12 as indicated in Fig. 10, and the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 is formed by a second radially inwards protruding at least partly ring-formed ridge 13 as also indicated in Fig. 10. The snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 and the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 are formed on an inner side of the flexible tub- ular wall part 14 extending from the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1.

In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 11 and 12, the snap parts 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 are formed by two opposed first radially inwards protruding and partly ring- formed ridges 12, and the snap parts 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 are also formed by two opposed radially inwards protruding and partly ring-formed ridges 13.

In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 13 and 14, the snap parts 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 are formed by a number of radially inwards protruding and regularly spaced ridges 12 which may be partly ring-formed, and the snap parts 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 are also formed by a number of radially inwards protruding and regularly spaced ridges 13 which may be partly ring-formed.

In the embodiments illustrated in Figs. 4 to 14, the one or more snap parts 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 and the one or more snap parts 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 are formed on an inner side of a flexible tubular wall part 14 extending from the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1. Thereby, a particular firm mounting of the lamp head 1 on the beverage 2, 2’ can may be obtained. The flexible tubular wall part 14 may have to be ex- panded in order for the snap parts 7 of the first and the second snap-fit connector 5, 6 to elastically grip over and interlock with the radially protruding circular edge 8 of the

DK 2024 70099 A1 11 top of the beverage can. Because said flexible wall part 14 is tubular, the wall part may provide good strength to the snap-fit connection and therefore secure firm and stable mounting of the lamp head on the beverage can.

In the embodiments illustrated in Figs. 4 to 14, the flexible tubular wall part 14 and the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector 5 and the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector 6 are preferably injection-moulded from a plastic mate- rial as one piece. As seen in Fig. 9, the flexible tubular wall part 14 the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector 5, the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector 6 and a lower wall 17 of the lamp head may preferably be injection-moulded as one piece.

Fig. 15 illustrates another embodiment corresponding to that of Figs. 4 to 10, however, wherein the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 has the form of one separate elastic ring-formed element 18 inserted into a groove in the tubular wall part 14 extend- ing from the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1. Similarly, the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit connector 6 has the form of one separate elastic ring-formed element 19 in- serted into a groove in the tubular wall part 14. In this embodiment, the tubular wall part 14 does not need to be flexible.

Fig. 16 illustrates another embodiment corresponding to that of Fig. 15, however, wherein the snap part 7 of the first snap-fit connector 5 has the form of an elastic ring- formed element 18 inserted into a groove in the tubular wall part 14 extending from the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1 and wherein the snap part 7 of the second snap-fit con- nector 6 has the form of an elastic ring-formed element 19 also inserted into a groove in the tubular wall part 14. In this embodiment, two elastic ring-formed elements 18, 19 are connected by means of an intermediate part 20 in order to form one elastic ele- ment. In this embodiment, the tubular wall part 14 does also not need to be flexible.

Figs. 20 to 22 illustrate another embodiment corresponding to that of Fig. 15, however, wherein the separate elastic ring-formed elements 18, 19 are formed as a broken rings

DK 2024 70099 A1 12 leaving a space open between ends of the ring. Thereby, the ring-formed elements 18, 19 may be able to even better flex.

In the embodiments illustrated in Figs. 4 to 14, the snap face 9 of the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector 5 and the snap face 9 of the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector 6 are rounded seen in a radial cross-section of the first and second snap-fit connectors the lamp head 1.

In the embodiments illustrated in Figs. 15 to 22, the snap face 9 of the one or more snap parts of the first snap-fit connector 5 and the snap face 9 of the one or more snap parts of the second snap-fit connector 6 are V-formed seen in a radial cross-section of the first and second snap-fit connectors the lamp head 1.

Thereby, when pressing the lamp head 1 onto the beverage can 2, 2’, the rounded or V- formed snap faces 9 may cause the one or more snap parts 7 to gradually be elastically bend in a radially outwards direction, thereby facilitating the snap-fit connection.

Although in the illustrated embodiments, a first snap-fit connector 5 and a second snap- fit connector 6 have been illustrated, more snap fit connectors than two may be pro- vided on the lower side 4 of the lamp head 1. For instance, in addition, a third not shown snap-fit connector may be provided which is arranged to elastically grip over and inter- lock with a radially protruding circular edge 8 having a third outer diameter D3 which is larger than the second outer diameter D2. The third snap-fit connector may be arranged above the second snap-fit connector.

In order to better stabilise the lamp formed by the lamp head 1 according to the inven- tion, when the lamp head is mounted on a beverage can 2, 2’, the beverage can may be provided with a foot 21 as illustrated in Figs. 23 to 28. It is noted that the foot is in itself a separate invention that may be employed even without the lamp head 1, if it is desired to stabilise a beverage can 2, 2’ standing on a surface.

DK 2024 70099 A1 13

As seen in Figs. 23 to 28 the foot 21 may include a foot top 22, an intermediate snap in- sert 23 and a foot bottom 24.

The intermediate snap insert 23 may be formed from a flexible material with a spring- back functionality. As seen, the intermediate snap insert 23 has two opposed clamping elements 25, 26 connected to a peripheral ring 27 of the intermediate snap insert 23 by means of a connecting part 28. The two opposed clamping elements 25, 26 are biased outwards away from each other in order to grip over a peripheral radially inwardly di- rected lower edge 29 of a beverage can 2 for holding the can on the foot. Thereby, the foot 21 may be mounted on beverage cans having varying diameters. As indicated in Fig. 28, the two opposed clamping elements 25, 26 are each provided with a pointed edge 31 adapted to grip over said peripheral radially inwardly directed lower edge 29 of a beverage can 2.

As seen, the foot top 22 has a cut-out 30 through which the two opposed clamping ele- ments 25, 26 extends upwards from a top side of the foot. Furthermore, the foot bot- tom 24 also has a cut-out 31 allowing access to the two opposed clamping elements 25, 26 from a lower side of the foot 1. Thereby, the clamping elements 25, 26 may be brought closer to each other against their elasticity by inserting two fingers through the cut-out 31 in order to assist when mounting the foot 1 on a beverage can.
