Definitions
- the invention relates to a closure for a beverage can with a rotating lid attached to a rivet of the can lid from an opening rotational position to a closing rotational position above the pouring opening and back again.
- the object of the present invention is to improve such a beverage can closure in terms of sealing function and operability.
- the rotary cover is at least partially formed as a curved snap-action disc which can be converted by a force acting perpendicular to the lid mirror plane from a stable first bending state by bending and after overcoming a pressure point in a stable second bending state in which the outer edge of the rotary lid to the Outlet opening limiting lid margin applies with increased closing pressure and from which the snap-action disc springs back into its first bending state by renewed application of force (cracking-frog effect).
- the increased closing pressure can be achieved, for example, by virtue of the fact that the rotary cover has a slightly larger outer diameter due to a lower deflection in the second bending state than in the first bending state.
- the rotary lid in the second bending state slightly overlaps or engages over the cover edge delimiting the pouring opening or engages in the same when the cover edge region delimiting the pouring opening is formed, for example, like a groove.
- the rotary cover is attached to the rivet with a fastening strap, which is extended from the snap-action disk beyond the rivet and around an opposite actuating portion.
- the invention relates in another embodiment also to a closure of the type described above, with an opening serving Aufdgurlasche which is attached to the rotary cover on the same rivet of the can lid as the rotating lid, the latter in its closing rotational position of the Eindschreibspitze on their the Eindschreibspitze opposite end raised and supported against the can lid and latched Aufdschreiblasche is held on the pouring opening limiting lid edge.
- the aforementioned support is preferably formed integrally with the Aufdrücklasche for manufacturing reasons and partially punched out of this.
- the support at its end remote from the rivet over a Um- be connected with the push-tab.
- the length of the support is less than about half the length of the push tab and greater than about one third of the length of the push tab.
- the catch of the can lid which in all embodiments is preferably provided underneath the push-on tab on the can lid, for example as a rib or as a groove, is in this case about half to one third of the length of the push-on tab, from the end of the push-on tab seen from.
- the angle of the raised Aufdenburglasche to the plane of the can lid mirror is preferably between about 30 and 45 °.
- the push-on tab can be attached to the rivet via a fastening tab punched out in some areas from the push-on tab material.
- the rivet and / or the catch are integrally formed from the material of the can lid.
- a guide groove for receiving an expression on the underside of the rotary ceiling is provided in the can lid.
- the rotary lid can be reliably guided out of its - with respect to the pouring opening - rear opening rotational position in its front locking rotational position, whereby the handling is facilitated.
- the rotary cover may near the rivet, next to this or on the opposite side of the indenting, have reinforcing beads to better withstand the material stress there.
- the simplification of the operation when closing the pouring opening may further comprise the can lid a stop for the rotary lid in the closed rotational position.
- the sealing function can be further improved if the rotary cover is at least partially coated, for example on the inside of its edge region.
- the choice of material is in particular to be made so that the material thickness of the can lid preferably between 0.1 and 0.3 mm, in particular at about 0.224 mm, the material thickness of the Aufdrücklasche preferably between 0.15 and 0.35 mm, in particular at about 0.265 mm and the material thickness of the rotary cover is preferably between 0.05 and 0.15 mm, in particular about 0.1 mm.
- the material may be rolled aluminum, optionally with a clearcoat finish.
- the invention further relates to a can lid with the above-described closure and to a beverage can with a thus-equipped can lid.
- FIG. 1 b representations corresponding to FIG. 1 a, in which the snap-action disk of the rotary cover is in a second bending state, with respect to FIG. 1 a the manner of actuation for transferring the snap-action disk from its first bending state to its second bending state being illustrated;
- Fig. 1d are views corresponding to Fig. 1a, with respect to Fig. 1c, illustrating how the snap-action disc is returned from its second bending state to its first bending state.
- Fig. 2a is a schematic side view of one on an approximately cylindrical can body zutätelten with a the invention according to a further embodiment having closure system in rotary closure position brought rotary lid and placed in detent position support, and
- Fig. 2b is a plan view of a can lid according to Figure 1, wherein the rotary lid is in the opening rotational position.
- beverage cans with a pouring spout formed as an injection opening can be produced. Close the opening 7 again.
- the can lid D which is permanently applied, for example, to the upper end of an approximately cylindrical can body K, has a rivet 5 on which a rotary lid 2 is rotatably mounted from an opening rotational position into a closing rotational position above the pouring opening 7 and back again.
- the rotary cover 2 is in each case in its closed rotational position above the pouring opening 7, which has been previously released, for example by utilizing material weakening lines.
- the rotary cover 2 is at least partially formed as a curved snap-action disc S, which can be converted by a force acting perpendicular to the lid mirror plane from a stable first bending state by bending and after overcoming a pressure point in a stable second bending state in which the outer edge 10 of the rotary cover 2 to the the pouring opening 7 delimiting lid edge 9 applies a closing pressure and from which the snap-action disc S springs back into its first bending state by renewed forces, as shown in FIGS. 1a to 1d in succession.
- the snap disc S takes the essential part of the pouring opening 7 and is adapted in its outer contour of the inner edge contour of the pouring opening 7, namely special circular.
- the rotary lid 2 overlaps the pouring opening 7 limiting lid edge 9 slightly.
- the rotary lid 2 is attached to the rivet 5 of the can lid D with a fastening tab 8. Seen from the snap-action disc S, the fastening tab 8 is extended beyond the rivet 5 by an opposing actuating portion 15.
- the snap disc S can be transferred by pressure from the top of the actuating portion 15 again from its second tightly closed Biegezu- state in the first bending state in which the rotating lid 2 for releasing the pouring opening 7 easily can be turned away.
- beverage cans can be sealed even more reliably with a pouring opening 7 designed as a push-in opening.
- the can lid D which is permanently mortared, for example, on the upper end of an approximately cylindrical can body K, a Aufdrücklasche 1 is connected via a formed on the can lid D rivet 5 by means of fastening tab 8 in the usual way.
- a rotary lid 2 is rotatably mounted to the rivets 5 of the can lid D, so that this after opening the pouring opening 7 by lifting the Aufdschreiblasche 1 at its end facing away from the pouring opening 7 and by pressing the front Eindschreibspitze 6 on the pre-stamped lid closure area can be brought into the closed rotational position.
- dashed lines indicate that the rotary cover 2 is partially formed as a snap-action disc S which, by applying force F perpendicular to the top-level mirror, transforms from an upper stable bending state into a lower bending state after overcoming a pressure point can be, in which latter the outer edge 10 of the rotary cover 2 is pressed more strongly against the pouring opening 7 bounding lid edge 9 than before to produce a tight seal.
- the deflection of the snap disc S upward in the initial bending state may be stronger than the deflection of the snap disc S down in the second stable bending state, so that the diameter of the rotary cover 2 in the latter second bending state is slightly larger than in the first bending state, in which the snap disc is arched upwards.
- the pouring opening 7 is circular in the illustrated case, but it can also oval, trapezoidal with optionally rounded corners or other
- the rotary cover 2 (in a manner not shown) at its outer edge 10 have one or more wings or the like handle elements, so that the rotary cover 2 can be detected to rotate easier.
- the material thickness of the Aufdrücklasche 1 may be slightly larger than that of the can lid D, that of the rotary lid 2 is slightly less than that of the can lid D.
