Definitions
- Container with a screw cap for nail polish, mascara liquid or the like Container with a screw cap for nail polish, mascara liquid or the like.
- the invention relates to a container with a screw cap for nail polish, mascara liquid or the like, the container being made of a relatively hard material such as glass, hard plastic or the like. exists, and wherein the screw cap is to assume an exactly defined angular position relative to the container in order to ensure exact positioning of outer contours, inscriptions or the like. to ensure, in order to achieve such an end position on the screw cap or in the threaded region of the container, corresponding stops are provided.
- a typical container of the type under consideration is formed by a nail varnish bottle made of glass with a screw cap made of plastic and used to close it.
- Such bottles of nail polish often have a non-circular cross-section, which is continued by the screw cap in its outer contour.
- This enables interesting designs to be realized and, in addition, an oval screw cap, for example with a cross section, is easier to handle due to more favorable leverage ratios.
- the plastic closure cap also frequently has an injection point which, for example, also closes in a predetermined position should come to lie.
- the object of the invention is to create a container with a closure cap which can be produced from relatively hard material, such as glass, tolerances due to production being able to be compensated for, and nevertheless a relatively steep, rapid opening and closing enabling thread can be used.
- At least one protrusion is arranged on the top of a ring shoulder of the container, said protrusion extending over a certain one Circumferential angular range of the container shoulder extends and in cross-section has a run-on slope, a rounded transition to a plateau section running approximately parallel to the base area and a stop shoulder running approximately perpendicularly downward, at least one recess on the lower edge of the screw cap corresponding approximately to the projection Contour is arranged, which extends over approximately the same circumferential angle range, the lower edge of the screw cap each extending toward the area on the run-up slope of the recess with an inclination in the direction of the thread pitch, the angle of this inclination being somewhat smaller than the thread pitch.
- the circumferential angular range over which the recess extends is somewhat less than that of the projection.
- At least two recesses on the screw cap or projections on the container are arranged offset by 180 ° with respect to one another.
- the circumferential angle extension of the projections or the recesses is advantageously about 45 ° or an 1/8 turn.
- the thread pitch can be about 3 mm per revolution.
- the radius of curvature of the rounded transition region of the projections can be between 0.5 mm to 5 mm, preferably 0.5 mm, and the recesses 0.6 mm to 6.5 mm, preferably 0.6 mm.
- the configuration according to the invention ensures that in the end position or stop position when the screw cap is screwed on, the stop shoulders of the recesses on the lower edge of the screw cap come to rest on the correspondingly perpendicular stop shoulders of the projections on the bottle, so that this completely exactly one end position is defined.
- the rounded ones Transitional areas of the respective projection on the bottle and the respective recess on the screw cap one above the other, so that without the need for elastic yielding of the areas around the projections or recesses, an interlocking and tensioning takes place using the thread play, which not only occurs ensures the rotational position of the cap, but also ensures a high level of tightness.
- the inclination of the lower edge of the screw cap between the respective recesses is selected so that the thread play is continuously reduced down to the stop position when screwing on, thereby achieving tension.
- the locking mechanism is also relatively insensitive to tolerances in the dimensioning of the shoulder on the bottle.
- Fig. 1 shows a section through a container with a screw cap in the form of a nail polish bottle
- 2 to 4 are enlarged representations of the area of the ring shoulder of the bottle and the lower edge of the screw cap in three successive phases of the closing process.
- the container 1 is formed by a bottle made of glass, an external thread 3 having a thread pitch o being formed on the bottle neck 2.
- a screw cap 4 has a corresponding internal thread 5 and can accordingly be screwed onto the bottle neck 2.
- a brush 6 with a plastic holder 7 is arranged inside the screw cap 4.
- a screw cap 8 is connected to the screw cap 4 in a rotationally fixed manner, the lower edge 9 of which, when screwed on, has a comparatively small distance from an upper shoulder 10 of the container 1.
- the outer decorative cap 8 can also be formed in one piece with the screw cap 4, but this is not important in connection with the present application.
- a ring shoulder 11 is formed on the neck 2 of the container 1 or the bottle, on the upper side of which projections 12 are formed in positions opposite one another by 180 °, with the lower edge 13 of the screw cap 4 or with each other there by 180 ° opposite recesses 14 cooperate during the closing and locking process.
- the locking process is shown in different phases, the closure cap 4 in the direction of the arrow 15 relative to the container 1 or its ring shoulder 11 along a line 16 corresponding to the slope c-des Thread 3 is screwed down.
- projections 12 are arranged on the top of the ring shoulder 11, each of which has an obliquely inclined starting shoulder 17, a rounded transition region 18 with a radius of curvature R1 of approximately 0.5 and a plateau section 19, which runs parallel to the upper edge of the ring shoulder 11, and includes a stop shoulder 20 running vertically downward therefrom.
- the stop shoulder 20 is offset from the stop shoulder 20 of the second projection 12 by 180 °, as can be seen in particular in FIG. 4.
- Each recess 14 has an approximately corresponding cross-sectional configuration, i.e. a run-up slope 21, a rounded transition area 22, a plateau section 23 and a stop shoulder 24.
- Each projection 12 extends over a circumferential angle range ⁇ 1 of 45 ° in the exemplary embodiment, while the recesses 14 extend over a somewhat smaller circumferential angle range (-> 2.
- the lower edge 13 of the screw cap 4 extends inclined towards each recess 14 with respect to the The upper edge 25 of the ring shoulder 11, the angle of inclination y, as is particularly clear in FIG. 4, being somewhat smaller than the angle of inclination ° ⁇ of the thread 3 or 5. Accordingly, starting from a position shown in FIG.
- the stop shoulder 24 of the recess 14 comes to rest against the stop shoulder 20 of the projection 12, a completely defined angular position for the closed position being achieved by the vertical arrangement of these shoulders.
- the transition areas 18 and 22 lie one above the other, leaving an intermediate space between the plateau sections 23 of the recesses 14 and 19 of the projection 12, which can be, for example, half the height H1 of the projection 12, so that in this closed state the plateau section 23 is in one Height H2 comes to lie relative to the upper edge 25 of the ring shoulder 11.
- the height Hl can be between 0.5 mm and 5.5 mm.
