Definitions
- the present invention relates to improvements made to closure systems comprising a pouring spout.
- the improvements which are the object of the present invention aim to achieve the two goals mentioned above, that is to say on the one hand to ensure the automatic orientation of the spout relative to the container and on the other hand to achieve a difficult to unscrew cap for young children.
- the inner bottom of the stopper has a tooth and the top of the annular part of the pourer applied against the inner bottom is provided with a notch, while the inner wall of the skirt of said pourer which is intended to surround the end.
- smooth of the neck has a clean projection to cooperate with an axial groove (or vice versa) of said end when the cap is screwed on the neck and the tooth of the cap abuts against the notch of the pourer to drive it in rotation, the angular restraint exerted on the pourer by the groove projection assembly being greater than that generated by the tooth-notch support so that once the projection engaged in the groove, the pourer is immobilized in rotation while the plug tooth is no longer stopped by the notch.
- the outer skirt of the stopper is provided on its internal face with at least one projection capable of cooperating with at least one step formed on the bottle in order to avoid unscrewing the stopper, the areas of said bottle located on either side of its diameter oriented at 90 ° relative to its step being flattened so that a centripetal pressure on the outer skirt provided elastic at the two flattenings of the bottle, causes the release of the projection relative to the step .
- the combination according to the invention essentially consists of a plug or obturator 1, a pouring spout 2, and a container or bottle 3.
- the plug 1 is constituted, as usual, by a bottom 4 from the inner face from which a central sleeve 5 provided with a thread and which is surrounded by an outer skirt 6 longer than the sleeve 5 leaves.
- the inner face 4 a of the bottom 4 is provided with two diametrically opposite teeth 4 b , produced in the form of a ratchet tooth, which has a front face perpendicular to the bottom 4.
- the inner face of the skirt 6 is also provided with an axial projection 6 a as will be explained better below.
- the pouring spout 2 comprises a cylindrical nozzle 7 connected by a frustoconical chimney 8 to a ring 9 to the periphery from which a skirt 10 parallel to the spout 7.
- the inner face of the skirt 10 is provided with a strip 10 destined to snap into a corresponding groove in the neck of the container 3 as will be better explained below.
- the skirt 10 is also provided on its inner face with a longitudinal projection 10 b , the role of which will be explained below.
- the top of the annular ring 9 comprises two notches 9 a arranged diametrically opposite.
- the container 3 which is produced in the form of a bottle is provided with a neck 11 the end 11 a of which is smooth, that is to say that the thread 11 b of the neck leaves below this end 11 a .
- a groove 11 c capable of receiving the cord 10 a .
- This end also has a longitudinal groove 11 d intended to receive the projection 10 b of the pourer 2.
- the bottle 3 has a neck 12 of oval shape and one of the two flattened parts of which is provided with a step 12 a .
- the bottle 3 is provided with a handle 13 oriented diametrically opposite with respect to the groove 11 d of its neck.
- the pourer 2 is first automatically engaged inside the sleeve 5, its skirt 10 engaging without significant play inside the thread of this sleeve.
- the crown 9 of the pourer therefore comes to be placed very close to the interior 4 a of the bottom 4 of the plug 1. It is distant from it by the thickness of its notches 9 a which are the same height as that of the teeth 4 b . These therefore rest against the crown 9 and the notches 9 a of the latter against the face 4 a of the bottom 4.
- the assembly of the plug 1 and its pouring spout 2 is placed in an automatic dispenser intended to bring it opposite the neck 11 of a bottle 13.
- an automatic dispenser intended to bring it opposite the neck 11 of a bottle 13.
- the top of the thread of the sleeve 5 against the outside of the skirt 10 of the pouring spout the latter remains disposed very close to the bottom 4 of the plug, as explained above.
- a matrix is placed around the plug and gives it a rotational movement, so that its sleeve 5 begins to screw with respect to the thread 11b of the neck 11.
- the cord 10 a of the skirt 10 of the pouring spout cooperates with the end of the non-threaded end of the neck 11 (fig. 9), while the projection 6 a of the outer skirt 6 is not blocked by the step 12 has a neck because its rear part is rounded and on the contrary the front part in the direction of screwing of the step is oblique.
- the plug is made of an elastic plastic material.
- the cord 10 a of the inside face of the skirt 10 of the pouring spout snaps into the groove 11 c of the non-threaded end of the neck 11, so that it is immobilized axially by this means while it is fixed angularly by cooperation of the projection 10 b in the groove 11 d as indicated above.
- Things are arranged in such a way that at the end of screwing, that is to say when the bottom of the stopper comes to rest against the crown 9 of the pouring spout which is itself in abutment against the end of the neck 11, the face of the projection 6 a oriented normally with respect to the internal face of the skirt 6 is located immediately opposite the face of the step 12 a oriented normally at the neck 12 (fig. 12). Thus unscrewing the cap is prohibited.
- the neck 12 of the bottle 3 a flattened shape, that is to say that in fact its profile in plan is oval with the parts closest to the center located in a diameter perpendicular to the step 6 a (fig. 13); under these conditions, by pressing in a centripetal manner on the skirt 6 of the plug 1 at the level of the two flattenings of the neck 12, this skirt is deformed, so that the projection 6 a is released towards the outside by compared to step 12 a as illustrated in fig. 13. Under these conditions, it is possible to unscrew the stopper and have access to the contents of the bottle 12.
- the active part 7 a of the pouring spout 2 is located opposite the handle 13 of the bottle, so that the spillage of the product s 'performs correctly.
- the filling of the bottle 13 is carried out by simply screwing the cap.
- the projection 6a of the outer skirt cooperates with the recess to deform the skirt and allow the screw as explained above.
- the three components of the combination according to the invention can be made of any suitable material, but we choose vana It is a good idea to mold the stopper and the pourer into a semi-rigid plastic material such as polypropylene, while the bottle is blow molded from a material such as rigid PCV or the like.
- the step 12 a is arranged perpetually with the diameter passing through the groove 11 d .
- the projection 10 b could be a depression and the groove 11 b a projection.
- the tooth 4 d could be placed at any zone inside the stopper 1 the notch 9 a being placed in correspondence on the pourer 2.
