Example

[0020] Referring now to the drawings, where the present invention is generally referred to with numeral 1, it can be observed that it is used with containers C having neck 10. Stopper 1 subject of the present application includes tubular cylindrical assembly 20, pin assembly 70 and plug assembly 100. Basically, cylindrical assembly 20 is partially and snuggly received within neck 10. Assembly 20 includes a central through opening 21 that partially receives assemblies 70 and 100 in mating cooperative engagement. A user rotates assembly 70 causing assembly 100 to advance (assembly 20 is functionally held in place within neck 10) towards peripheral flange 76 with frustroconical end 108 pushing the internal wall of lower end 22 against the interior surface of neck 10 sealing the interior of the container C.

[0021] One of the preferred embodiments is shown in FIG. 1. Tubular cylindrical assembly 20 is made out of a deformable and resilient material, such as rubber or equivalent. Cylindri...

Abstract

A stopper for containers with a neck. The stopper includes a resilient and deformable tubular cylindrical assembly (20) that partially receives a pin assembly (70) through one end and a plug assembly (100) through the other end. The tubular cylindrical assembly (20) includes a central through opening (21) where the pin assembly (70) and the plug assembly (100) mate urging closer together as pin assembly (70) is rotated. The frustroconical distal termination of the plug assembly (100) pushes the end (22) of the tubular cylindrical assembly (20) towards the internal surface of the container neck achieving the sealing engagement that protects the contents of the container.

Description

II. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a stopper for bottles, and more particularly, to a stopper that is reusable. [0003] 2. Other Related Applications [0004] The present application is a continuation application of pending of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10 / 296,484 filed on Nov. 22, 2002, which is hereby incorporated by reference. The parent application Ser. No. (10 / 296,484) was filed as a national phase application in US for PCT / ES01 / 00181 filed on May 10, 2001, which in turn claimed priority of Spanish patent application serial No. P 200001355 filed on May 29, 2000, now issued as U.S. Pat. No. 2,171,350. [0005] 3. Description of the Related Art [0006] Several stoppers for bottles have been developed in the past. None of them, however, includes a combination of a tubular cylindrical assembly with a pin assembly and a plug assembly. The tubular cylindrical assembly has a central through opening that partially re...
