Embodiment Construction

[0023] from about Figure 1-6 Beginning with the description of , a general comment on the principles of the cap and spout assembly will be given.

[0024] refer to figure 1 , schematically shows an example of a food package 10 . The food package 10 has the shape of a bottle formed by a body part 11 , which may preferably be made of a cardboard-based laminate, and a top part 12 , which may preferably be made of plastic. The top part 12 is provided with a neck 20 forming the upper part of the plastic top part 12 . The neck 20 may be integrally formed with the top portion 12 such that the entire top portion 12 including the neck 20 may be manufactured as a single piece.

[0025] A cap 30 is arranged on the neck for sealing the spout 100 forming the upper end of the neck 20 (see for example figure 2 b). The cap 30 may optionally be provided with a tamper evident ring 40 as is well known in the art.

[0026] The package 10 may be manufactured by first forming a sleeve, ie a...

Abstract

The invention relates to a spout for a food package. A spout (100) forming part of a neck (20) of a package (10) is provided. The spout (100) comprises a membrane (150), and a tubular member (110) having a main body (112) and an end portion (114) extending axially from the main body (112), the tubular member (110) being releasably attached to said membrane (150). The end portion (114) is arrangedradially inwards of the main body (112).

Description

technical field [0001] The solution concerns a spout for food packaging. In particular, the present solution relates to a spout with a membrane sealing the ends of said spout. Background technique [0002] Food packages are usually provided with opening means to facilitate the discharge of the packaged food. The opening means may be either a non-reversible opening, ie once the package is opened it may not close, or a reclosable opening means. The latter is often required in order to extend the shelf life and quality of food products. A common way of providing a reclosable opening means is to arrange a threaded neck comprising a pouring spout in the upper part of the package. The threaded neck is designed such that it can accommodate a cap comprising an internal thread so that the cap can be unscrewed from the neck. Since the cap covers the open spout of the neck, the packaged food product is protected from the external environment, thus maintaining the quality of the pro...
