Description

L'invention a pour objet un dispositif perfectionné de fermeture pour récipients obturables par couvercle articulé et qui permette d'assurer l'inviolabilité du contenu du récipient avant la première ouverture.The subject of the invention is an improved closure device for containers which can be closed off by an articulated cover and which makes it possible to ensure the inviolability of the contents of the container before the first opening.

On connait de plus en plus de récipients comprenant de tels dispositifs qui ont l'avantage de faciliter les opérations d'ouverture et de fermeture sans crainte d'égarer le bouchon et qui facilitent simultanément l'utilisation du produit contenu dans le récipient. Ce genre de fermeture se généralise notamment pour les produits d'entretien ménager ainsi que pour les cosmétiques, shampooings et autres.There are more and more known containers comprising such devices which have the advantage of facilitating the opening and closing operations without fear of losing the stopper and which simultaneously facilitate the use of the product contained in the container. This type of closure is generalized in particular for household cleaning products as well as for cosmetics, shampoos and others.

De façon à assurer l'inviolabilité du récipient avant sa commercialisation, il est d'usage de placer par dessus le goulot et le bouchon ou le couvercle qui ferme le récipient, une bande de sécurité, une étiquette ou un capuchon généralement thermoformé en une matière rétractable et que l'utilisateur devra déchirer pour pouvoir ouvrir le couvercle ou ôter le bouchon.In order to ensure the inviolability of the container before its marketing, it is customary to place over the neck and the stopper or the lid which closes the container, a security strip, a label or a cap generally thermoformed in a material retractable and that the user will have to tear to be able to open the cover or remove the cap.

Et, il existe une demande de plus en plus récente de tels dispositifs d'usage commode pour le domaine alimentaire.And, there is an increasingly recent demand for such devices of convenient use for the food sector.

L'invention a pour objet un perfectionnement à un tel dispositif de fermeture qui assure une parfaite sécurité à l'usager, c'est-à-dire lui permette de déterminer immédiatement toute tentative d'ouverture par effraction du récipient, mais qui soit également d'utilisation très pratique et enfin puisse être fabriqué de façon très économique.The subject of the invention is an improvement to such a closure device which ensures perfect safety for the user, that is to say allows him to immediately determine any attempt to break into the container, but which is also very practical to use and finally can be manufactured very economically.

Au brevet français 2 613 328, on a déjà décrit un dispositif du type général susmentionné mais qui n'est pas applicable dans tous les cas et présente certaines limitations d'utilisation dans la mesure où le dispositif ne peut être pratiquement réalisé qu'avec un mécanisme de charnière dans lequel le couvercle et le corps de capsule sont fabriqués en une seule pièce moulée en une seule étape.In French patent 2,613,328, a device of the above-mentioned general type has already been described but which is not applicable in all cases and has certain limitations of use since the device can only be practically produced with a hinge mechanism in which the cover and the capsule body are made in one piece molded in one step.

Le dispositif de fermeture pour récipient se terminant par un goulot du type comprenant un corps de capsule avec un couvercle qui s'articule sur lui, permettant dans une position d'ouverture de dégager un orifice au moins de versement formé sur le dessus du corps de capsule, et dans une position de fermeture rabattue sur le corps de capsule, d'obturer ledit orifice, et dans lequel dispositif, dans la position rabattue du couvercle avant première utilisation, l'extrémité de préhension pour le couvercle vient se placer derrière une languette déchirable formée sur le corps de capsule, se caractérise selon l'invention en ce que ledit couvercle est monté rapporté sur le corps de capsule auquel il s'articule au moyen d'un système axe/tourillons assemblable par emboîtement, et en ce que ladite languette déchirable est constituée par une bande qui fait tout le tour du corps de capsule et du couvercle qu'elle vient recouvrir au moins partiellement.The closure device for a container ending in a neck of the type comprising a capsule body with a cover which is articulated on it, allowing in an open position to release at least one pouring opening formed on the top of the capsule body, and in a closed position folded over the capsule body, to close off said orifice, and in which device, in the folded position of the cover before first use, the grip end for the cover is placed behind a tearable tongue formed on the capsule body, is characterized according to the invention in that said cover is mounted attached to the capsule body to which it is articulated by means of a pin / pin system which can be assembled by interlocking, and in that said tear-off tab is constituted by a strip which goes all around the capsule body and the cover which it covers at least partially.

Avec un tel dispositif, on comprend que le couvercle et le corps de capsule peuvent être fabriqués comme des pièces séparées, ce qui facilite considérablement les opérations de fabrication par moulage de ces deux pièces et en réduit le prix.With such a device, it is understood that the cover and the capsule body can be manufactured as separate parts, which considerably facilitates the manufacturing operations by molding these two parts and reduces the price.

En outre, du fait que le couvercle et le corps de capsule ne sont pas moulés en une seule pièce, il est possible de choisir des matières compatibles différentes pour les deux pièces et en particulier de couleur différente pour le couvercle et le corps de capsule.In addition, since the cover and the capsule body are not molded in one piece, it is possible to choose different compatible materials for the two pieces and in particular of a different color for the cover and the capsule body.

Et néammoins, compte tenu de la constitution particulière de la languette en bande déchirable, on assure une parfaite sécurité pour l'utilisateur contre toute tentative d'ouverture par effraction du couvercle avant première utilisation, tant dans une ouverture normale en articulation du couvercle (qui est verrouillée) que dans une tentative d'ouverture par extraction du couvercle au niveau de son axe d'articulation dans le corps de capsule.And nevertheless, taking into account the particular constitution of the tear-off strip tongue, it provides perfect security for the user against any attempt to break open the cover before first use, both in a normal opening in articulation of the cover (which is locked) only in an attempt to open by extracting the cover at its hinge pin in the capsule body.

L'invention et sa mise en oeuvre apparaîtront plus clairement à l'aide de la description qui va suivre faite en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue de côté montrant le corps de capsule en place sur le goulot d'un récipient avec le couvercle dans la position fermée protégée par la bande de sécurité avant première ouverture,
  • la figure 2 montre une vue de dessus de la figure 1 faite selon la flèche II de cette figure,
  • les figures 3 et 4 sont respectivement des vues de devant et de derrière de la figure 1 faite respectivement selon les flèches III et IV de cette figure,
  • la figure 5 montre le corps de capsule sorti de moulage avec sa bande de sécurité intégré et ce, dans la même position que celle illustrée à la figure 1,
  • la figure 6 montre le couvercle en vue de côté avant assemblage sur le corps de capsule,
  • la figure 7 est une vue de dessus de la figure 5 faite selon la flèche VII de cette figure,
  • la figure 8 est une vue de dessous du couvercle faite selon la flèche VIII de la figure 6,
  • la figure 9 est une vue de côté du dispositif en utilisation normale couvercle soulevé pour accès au contenu du flacon équipé du dispositif.
The invention and its implementation will appear more clearly with the aid of the description which follows, given with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a side view showing the capsule body in place on the neck of a container with the lid in the closed position protected by the security strip before first opening,
  • FIG. 2 shows a top view of FIG. 1 taken along arrow II of this figure,
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 are respectively front and rear views of FIG. 1 made respectively according to arrows III and IV of this figure,
  • FIG. 5 shows the capsule body taken out of molding with its integrated safety strip and this, in the same position as that illustrated in FIG. 1,
  • FIG. 6 shows the cover in side view before assembly on the capsule body,
  • FIG. 7 is a top view of FIG. 5 taken along arrow VII of this figure,
  • FIG. 8 is a bottom view of the cover made according to arrow VIII of FIG. 6,
  • Figure 9 is a side view of the device in normal use lid raised to access the contents of the bottle equipped with the device.

Selon le mode de réalisation illustré aux dessins et en se référant tout d'abord aux figures 1 à 4, on aperçoit en place sur le col 1 d'un flacon le dispositif de l'invention référencé de façon générale 2 composée de deux pièces essentiellement le corps de capsule 3 et le couvercle 4.According to the embodiment illustrated in the drawings and with reference first to Figures 1 to 4, we see in place on the neck 1 of a bottle the device of the invention generally referenced 2 consisting of two parts essentially the capsule body 3 and the cover 4.

Solidaire du corps de capsule 3 on aperçoit également la bande 5 déchirable de sécurité avec sa languette 6 de préhension permettant son déchirement avant première utilisation par arrachement vers l'extérieur au niveau d'une ligne de faiblesse 7, la bande 5 étant solidarisée du corps de capsule 3 au niveau d'un cordon de rattachement 8 plus particulièrement visible aux figures 1 et 5.Solid with the capsule body 3 we also see the tear-off safety band 5 with its gripping tab 6 allowing it to be torn before first use by tearing outwards at a line of weakness 7, the band 5 being secured to the body capsule 3 at a connecting cord 8 more particularly visible in FIGS. 1 and 5.

Dans l'exemple illustré le corps de capsule 3 comprend également un axe formant pivot 9 pour les tourillons 10 formés sur le couvercle 4 vers sa partie arrière, en supposant selon la position de la figure 1 que la flèche III correspond au côté "avant" et que la flèche IV correspond au côté "arrière".In the example illustrated, the capsule body 3 also comprises a pivot axis 9 for the pins 10 formed on the cover 4 towards its rear part, in assuming according to the position of Figure 1 that arrow III corresponds to the "front" side and that arrow IV corresponds to the "rear" side.

En se reportant aux figures 3 et 7, on aperçoit clairement que dans le corps de capsule 3 est formé sur l'avant de ce corps de capsule un petit logement en creux où évidemment 10 qui permet de loger et recevoir une extrémité 11 (figures 1 et 6) du couvercle 4 dans la position fermée de ce couvercle.Referring to Figures 3 and 7, we can clearly see that in the capsule body 3 is formed on the front of this capsule body a small hollow housing where obviously 10 which allows to accommodate and receive one end 11 (Figures 1 and 6) of the cover 4 in the closed position of this cover.

Cette extrémité 11 comporte avantageusement un bec 12 qui la termine légèrement en saillie (figure 3 et 6) et qui sera verrouillé (voir figure 1) sous la bande déchirable 5 tant que cette bande est en place.This end 11 advantageously comprises a spout 12 which terminates it slightly projecting (FIGS. 3 and 6) and which will be locked (see FIG. 1) under the tearable strip 5 as long as this strip is in place.

Il apparaît de la sorte qu'il est impossible d'ouvrir le couvercle 4 en le soulevant normalement par l'avant si l'on n'a pas déchiré préalablement la bande 5.It thus appears that it is impossible to open the cover 4 by lifting it normally from the front if the strip 5 has not been torn beforehand.

Mais de façon semblable, on aperçoit qu'il n'est pas non plus possible de forcer l'ouverture du couvercle 4 en tentant de sortir les tourillons 10 de sur le pivot 9, étant donné que la bande 5 fait tout le tour du couvercle et du corps de capsule empêchant d'une part toute préhension efficace du couvercle 4 et d'autre part le maintenant fermement sur le corps de capsule.But similarly, it can be seen that it is also not possible to force the opening of the cover 4 by attempting to remove the pins 10 from on the pivot 9, since the strip 5 goes all the way around the cover and of the capsule body preventing on the one hand any effective gripping of the cover 4 and on the other hand holding it firmly on the capsule body.

Comme il apparaît clairement des diverses figures, et plus particulièrement des figures 1, 6 et 8 le couvercle 4 comporte intérieurement une jupe cylindrique 13 qui vient en position de fermeture du couvercle porter et s'emboîter de façon étanche contre une partie cylindrique 14 (voir figure 5) du corps de capsule.As is clearly apparent from the various figures, and more particularly from Figures 1, 6 and 8, the cover 4 has internally a cylindrical skirt 13 which comes in the closed position of the cover to wear and fit in leaktight manner against a cylindrical part 14 (see Figure 5) of the capsule body.

Ainsi est-on assuré de l'étanchéité de la fermeture couvercle/corps de capsule.This ensures the tightness of the lid / capsule body closure.

A la figure 7 on aperçoit également de façon avantageuse que l'orifice 15 du corps de capsule est décalée vers l'avant par rapport au corps de capsule de façon à faciliter l'usage du récipient équipé du dispositif lorsque le couvercle est dans sa position d'ouverture tel qu'illustré à la figure 9.In FIG. 7, it can also be seen advantageously that the orifice 15 of the capsule body is offset forward with respect to the capsule body so as to facilitate the use of the container equipped with the device when the lid is in its position. as shown in Figure 9.

A l'examen des diverses figures, on note également que de façon très avantageuse, toutes les parties qui constituent le dispositif, c'est-à-dire essentiellement le corps de capsule 3 équipé de sa bande de sécurité 5 et le couvercle 4 s'inscrivent sensiblement dans le prolongement du cylindre qui coiffe le dispositif et dont la génératrice est parallèle à l'axe dudit corps.On examination of the various figures, it is also noted that very advantageously, all the parts which constitute the device, that is to say essentially the capsule body 3 equipped with its safety strip 5 and the cover 4 s 'are substantially in line with the cylinder which covers the device and whose generatrix is parallel to the axis of said body.

Aux figures 1 à 4, on note également avantageusement qu'avant première ouverture, le dessus du couvercle 4 n'est pas caché par la bande déchirable 5, ce qui permet de laisser apparaître la couleur du couvercle se détachant du corps de capsule si les deux parties du dispositif ont été moulées en des couleurs différentes.In FIGS. 1 to 4, it is also advantageously noted that before first opening, the top of the cover 4 is not hidden by the tearable strip 5, which makes it possible to reveal the color of the cover detaching from the capsule body if the two parts of the device were molded in different colors.
