Definitions

  • the invention represents a spout seal made of a plastic material, especially suitable for a container of the gas can nature for example.
  • spout caps and seals for containers of all kinds and for tubes consist of a cap affixed to the container having a cut-ofi or open seal to provide a secure seal-oft before the first intake. It is furthermore common to build a lock immediately next to the seal; the lock can be put on after opening the container for the first use.
  • An object of this invention is therefore the provision of a spout seal made of plastic and having a spout tube with a cut-off or open-seal projection at its outer end, and an adjacently connected reclosing mechanism which closes the seal after the first use.
  • the spout tube is built in such a way that it may be extendable.
  • FIGURE 1 is a sectional side view of a spout seal in a closed position
  • FIGURE 2 shows the spout seal as per FIGURE 1, but in an open or extended position
  • FIGURE 3 shows a special form of the spout seal in side view, partially in section.
  • FIGURES 1 and 2 show, foot or base 2 of the spout seal is aflixed in the container opening 1 of a can.
  • the spout seal furthermore consists of a tube-like hollow extension 3 Whose lower part 3a is flexible, and as shown in FIGURE 1, enables the folding-in of the tube-like part in the container opening, so that when the reclosing mechanism 4 is closed and seated in the rim receptacle 3b around the upper end of tube 3, the spout seal does not extend above the upper edge of rim 1a of the container. In this way the stacking up of two or more containers is practicable.
  • the re-closing mechanism, 4 is affixed to the foot 2 of the spout seal by means of a flexible connector 5. Until its first use, the contents of the container are sealed off by means of a uniform cut-ofi or open seal 30 connected with the spout tube. This seal is removed, as by cutting, before the first use. Thereafter, the re-closing mechanism 4 serves as a seal until further use.
  • FIGURES 1 and 2 it is considered practicable to attach a handle 6 to the tube-like part to simplify the extension of the tube-like part.
  • the handle may be attached below the seal 30 and pivotally attached to tube 3 as at rim 3/).
  • FIGURE 3 shows another example.
  • a ring-like handle 6 is aflixed to the upper portion of an extended seal 3c, which may be cut off along line 7 before first use.
  • the handle which after the first use becomes superfluous, is cut 0E along with the upper part of the seal 3c.
  • a plastic spout seal for stackable containers of the type which have an outer upstanding rim and spaced therefrom an inner upstanding rim which is of height substantantially less than the said outer ring, said inner rim forming a container opening, said spout seal comprising:
  • a spout in the form of a hollow tube flexibly connected at one end to said ring for insertion into and withdrawal from said opening through said ring,
  • a bail handle pivotally connected to said spout tube below said openable seal for extending the spout
  • a cap having an annular depending member for insertion into said channel both before and after said seal is cut open
