- a complete cut is a 360 ° cut of the lid, that is to say a circular cut made by rotation of the cap 1, advantageously a cut is made leaving a sufficient link to ensure cohesion between the central section 12 having been cut, and the peripheral section 10.
- a distal end 32 advantageously provided with cutting means. This is, for example, a beveled shape that can extend all around the futon.
- the free end 32 is beveled with respect to a plane normal to the axis ZZ of the neck 3, the lid formed by the insert 8 being typically disposed in such a plane normal to the axis ZZ of the neck 3
- the bevel made in this way is formed, for example, facing the cavity 38 facing the interior volume 4 of the receptacle. This reduces the thickness of the to make the free end 32 cutting, which facilitates the cutting of the lid by the punch 14.
- Said wall of said punch 14 has a thickness greater than the thickness of said cutting means.
- the punch is thus more rigid without, however, altering the efficiency of the cutting means which remain of a thickness making it possible to initiate the piercing of the cap and its cutting.
- said cutting means may comprise, as a variant, teeth 40 and / or notches 42 for cutting, for example, regularly distributed over the entire circumference of the machine. distal end 32 of the punch.
- a plurality of teeth 40 and / or notches 42 makes it possible to cut the lid even if a tooth and / or notch has been damaged during factory capping, for example.
- said teeth 40 have, for example, a sawtooth profile. In this case, a dozen teeth 40 are regularly distributed over the entire circumference of the distal end 32 of the punch. In the variant shown in Figures 7 to 9, said means are four teeth 40 distributed over the entire circumference of the distal end 32 of the punch 14, the angle between each of the teeth being 90 °.
- said means are two notches 42 diametrically opposed.
- Said teeth 40 or said notches 42 are of limited size compared to the height of the punch 14 so that the latter essentially keeps a form of fut.
- the height of the punch here is meant the height hp of the protruding portion of the punch, ie the portion of the punch extending from a distal edge of the stopper 1 towards the distal end 32 of the punch.
- the distal edge of the stopper 1 is the edge of the plug configured to abut against the spacer ring 22 in the waiting position and / or against the shoulder 20 of said tube head 2 in the position of use, closed tube .
- the total height of the plug 1 and the protruding portion of the punch is between 10 and 30 mm.
- said teeth 40 can be configured such that a hd / De ratio and / or a hd / hp ratio are less than 1/3, or even 1/5 or even 1/10, hd being the height of said tooth 40, the outer diameter of said was and hp the height of the protruding portion of the punch 14, as shown in Figures 5, 8 and 9 where the height hd and the height hp to be taken into account have been indicated.
- said notches 42 may be configured such that an he / De ratio and / or an he / hp ratio are less than 1/3, even 1/5 or even 1/10, where he is the height of the notch 42, the outer diameter of the fut and hp the height of the protruding portion of the punch 14, as shown in Figure 1 1 where height he and height hp to be taken into account have been indicated.
- At least one of the teeth 40 and / or one of the notches 42 may have a height hd or he different.
- each of the teeth and / or notches will be of different height.
- it may comprise three teeth of three different heights and preferably distributed regularly over the entire circumference of the distal end 32 of the punch 14 with an angle between each of the teeth of 120 °.
- a difference in height of the teeth and / or notches makes it possible to favor partial cutting of the lid, so that the portion or portions of the lid having been cut remain connected to the rest of the insert 8, in position of use, thus preventing any mixing of the material forming the insert 8 with a product contained in the associated receptacle.
- said neck 3 has an inner diameter Di and said was an outer diameter De, already mentioned. It has been found that a particularly effective cutting was obtained for values of the ratio De / Di greater than 0.8 or even 0.9, De and Di being measured in the same unit. Said was advantageously configured to penetrate into said interior volume 4, in the use position, by a distance h greater than the distance necessary to achieve a deformation of the insert 8 going beyond the elastic deformation capabilities of said insert 8 .
- the penetration distance h was in the receptacle is, for example, such that the ratio h / De is greater than 0.6 or 0.7, h and De being measured in the same unit .
- said neck 3 may have an inner wall comprising at least one inclined zone (not shown ) with respect to the longitudinal axis ZZ of the neck. Said inclined zone is located on the top of the neck, i.e. on the side of the end of the neck opening towards the outside of the receptacle.
- Said inclined zone extends over a small proportion of the inner wall of the neck 3, for example less than 1/8 of the internal height of the neck, or even less than 1/10.
- the internal height of the neck 3 is measured from the end of the neck 3 opening towards the outside of the receptacle at the end of the neck 3 opening into the interior volume 4 of the receptacle.
- the inclination will form an angle less than 45 ° with respect to the axis Z-Z, see less than 30 °.
- this inclined zone makes it possible to guide the punch 14 during factory corking, in particular if the stopper 1 is not correctly centered with respect to the neck 3 and when its distal end 32 comes into contact with the end of the neck 3. It limits thus, the risk of damaging the distal end and / or the cutting means.
