Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of packaging, and in particular to a bottle cap for beverages, medicines and skin care products which can separate active ingredients from liquid for storage and can be dissolved and used immediately when used. Background Art

[0002] In the fields of food, health care products, medicines and skin care products, premixed liquid forms are often used, such as beverages and oral liquids. However, the biggest problem with premixed liquid foods and health care products is that they are easily affected by external factors and lose their activity and deteriorate, such as light, heat, oxygen, ultraviolet rays, etc. For this reason, some preservatives, freshness-preserving agents and stabilizers need to be added. Even so, the shelf life of premixed liquids is still lower than that of solid or instant liquids. In addition, during the storage of liquid preparations, the taste changes due to time and environmental influences, which also restricts the development of a variety of foods. For example, the activity retention period of anthocyanin, vitamin and probiotic beverages is greatly shortened after mixing with water.

[0003] As people's living standards continue to improve, they are increasingly pursuing healthy bottled drinks. If a beverage bottle cap can be designed that can store solid or paste ingredients and can be prepared on demand, the nutritional ingredients and water will be isolated before the drinker uses it, maintaining the activity of the raw materials and allowing them to be prepared on demand. In this way, manufacturers can avoid using preservatives, stabilizers, etc., and users can also get products that they can trust. This design concept has been recognized by many people, and many patents have been applied for. For example, Chinese invention patent CN201410709657.5 discloses a beverage bottle for solid-liquid separation, which uses a forward and reverse screw structure to cut the inner wall through a rotating cutter head to achieve a solid-liquid mixing solution. However, There are many parts and the production is complicated, the production cost is high, and it is not easy to promote. For example, CN201110087873.7 and CN2199152Y respectively disclose a container that uses a push rod to push the easy-opening structure. However, due to the randomness during transportation and use, the opening is easily offset when it is squeezed by mistake, which will cause the easy opening to not be completely pushed out, and the material in the small container cannot be completely mixed with the liquid, affecting the customer experience. These patents generally have complex designs, high production difficulties, high costs, and low yields, resulting in a waste of manpower and resources. Therefore, there is no successful application in this regard on the market.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a design of a push-type bottle cap with an independent material bin, which has a novel design, ingenious conception, simple structure, low cost, and easy use, and can overcome the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention aims at solving the existing technical problems and provides a new bottle cap with an independent silo, the purpose of which is to extend the shelf life of active ingredients in food, health products, medicines and skin care products, to prevent the addition of preservatives, stabilizers and other additives harmful to the human body into premixed liquids, and to maintain the liquid flavor and active ingredients, thereby solving the problems existing in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a new type of bottle cap with an independent material bin, comprising a protective cover, which is buckled on the top of the cover body, the cover body is provided with an independent material bin, the independent material bin is sealed with contents through an aluminum foil film at the bottom, a sealing ring is provided between the independent material bin and the bottle mouth, and when the cover body and the bottle mouth are tightened, the bottom of the independent material bin, the sealing ring and the cover body are in a closed state of mutual compression; when the protective cover is opened, the top of the independent material bin is pressed with a finger, and the contents in the independent material bin squeezed by external force break through the aluminum foil film at the bottom, and the contents fall into the bottle body, completing the mixing process of the contents and the liquid in the bottle.

[0007] Preferably, the protective cover and the cover body are flexibly connected or not connected.

[0008] Preferably, the independent silo is a convex bubble-cap flying saucer-shaped structure.

[0009] Preferably, the independent silo is sealed in the form of aluminum or aluminum-plastic blister.

[0010] Preferably, the independent silo is connected to the aluminum foil film in a sealed manner by high-temperature pressing.

[0011] Preferably, the cover body is threadably connected to the bottle mouth.

[0012] Preferably, a through hole is provided between the sealing ring and the independent silo to prevent the squeezed aluminum foil from falling off.

[0013] Preferably, an anti-theft ring is connected below the cover body.

[0014] The principle of the present invention is: the independent silo built into the bottle cap has a material storage function, and the independent silo adopts the aluminum foil blister structure and materials commonly used in the market, and the independent silo is set in the bottle cap. The aluminum foil bottom surface and the sealing ring of the independent silo are in a closed state after being screwed by the cover body and the bottle mouth. When in use, open the protective cover and press the blister on the top of the independent silo to squeeze out the contents in the independent silo, so as to achieve the function of instant dissolution and instant use. Before consumers use it, the materials of the nutritional ingredients are stored in the independent silo, and the aluminum foil film of the independent silo isolates the contents from the water in the bottle body, and the independent silo itself is in a closed state. When drinking, open the protective cover, press the top surface of the independent silo with your fingers, and the contents in the independent silo and the airtight air in the silo are squeezed to break the aluminum foil at the bottom of the independent silo, and the contents fall into the liquid at the bottle mouth through the circular hole in the middle of the sealing ring, achieving the effect of solid-liquid separation and instant use, and avoiding the additives used in premixed beverages.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. The present invention has the effect of separating materials and liquids and preparing them immediately, which effectively avoids the problem of using a large amount of additives and preservatives in pre-prepared beverages to maintain taste and freshness;

[0017] 2. During storage and transportation, the nutrient contents are separated from water, maintaining activity and extending shelf life;

[0018] 3. The separate structure of the independent silo and the cover has simple structure, ingenious design, low production cost, and changing the variety and taste only requires changing the material in the independent silo without changing the bottle cap, so it is easy to promote and implement;

[0019] 4. Solve the problem of difficulty in premixing liquid ingredients in the production process. Traditional beverages, oral liquids, and skin care products are to put solid materials and liquids into tanks for homogenization, mixing, emulsification, and deployment. The equipment scale during processing is large and the energy consumption and labor are high. After adopting the present invention, only the mixing and deployment of solid materials need to be handled, which greatly shortens the processing time and reduces the processing difficulty;

[0020] 5. Solve the sterilization problem of premixed beverages. Traditional premixed liquids and topical skin care products require sterilization of mixed body fluids during processing and sterilization again after filling to extend the shelf life. This not only loses the active ingredients and nutrients in the mixed liquid, but also consumes a lot of energy. The present invention can reduce the energy consumption and difficulty of sterilization because solids and liquids are separated, and the nutrition and activity of the product can be retained to the maximum extent; BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Thus, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more. In addition, the term "including" and any variation thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] See also Figure 1The present invention provides a technical solution: a new type of bottle cap with an independent silo, comprising a cover body 1.2, and an anti-theft ring 1.3 which is an integrated soft connection structure that together constitutes the cover body, the cover body can match the common beverage screw-mouth bottles on the market, the protective cover 1.1 is arranged on the top of the cover body 1.2, and is in a locked state with the cover body 1.2, and can seal the bottle mouth and protect the independent silo 2 from being accidentally collided during transportation when closed; an independent independent silo 2 is arranged in the cover body 1.2, the top blister layer of the independent silo 2 is a soft composite aluminum material, and the bottom surface of the independent silo 2 is an aluminum foil sealing film, which is in contact with the sealing ring 4; the sealing ring 4 is provided with concave ring structures on both sides, and the bottom surface of the independent silo 2 is in a mutually squeezed closed connection with the sealing ring 4 and the bottle mouth, dividing the bottle and the cover body 1.2 into two independent relatively sealed spaces, so that the air pressure of each space is minimized. The influence of the air pressure on the other space is minimized.

[0028] The principle is as follows: the cover body 1.2 and the anti-theft ring 1.3 are integrally injection molded, and the material can be PP, PE, etc. used in traditional bottle caps. The protective cover 1.1 and the cover body 1.2 are openable lock structures, which play a role in sealing and preventing accidental contact. The independent silo 2 has a material storage function, and the content 3 in the independent silo 2 can store liquids, solids, and pastes. Its top surface is made of composite aluminum soft material, and the bottom surface is made of aluminum foil sealing structure. It can be mass-produced using a traditional aluminum-plastic blister machine. The independent silo 2 is placed inside the cover body 1.2, and its bottom surface is extruded and sealed at the upper end surface of the sealing ring 4. The two sides of the sealing ring 4 are provided with concave ring mechanisms to increase the airtightness. After the cover body 1.2 is tightened, the independent silo 2 is in a mutually extruded sealing state through the sealing ring 4 and the bottle mouth, which also has the function of fixing the independent silo 2. Before production, the content 3 is stored in the independent silo 2, and the bottom surface of the aluminum foil sealing film of the independent silo 2 isolates the content 3 from water. When in use, open the protective cover 1.1, press the top surface of the independent silo 2 with your fingers, and the content 3 in the silo and the air enclosed in the silo are squeezed to break the aluminum foil at the bottom of the independent silo 2, and the content 3 falls into the liquid at the bottle mouth through the round hole in the middle of the sealing ring 4, achieving the effect of separating the substance from the liquid and preparing it immediately, avoiding the problem of additives used in premixed beverages to preserve freshness and taste. The bottom surface material of the independent silo 2 is made of aluminum foil sealing film, which is thinner and more brittle than the material on the top surface of the independent silo 2, which not only ensures the separation and sealing effect, but also makes it easy to crack under pressure.

[0029] The sealing ring 4 is provided with a through hole, and the sealing ring 4 includes an upper convex and a lower concave sealing concave ring design, which ensures that after being screwed on, it can squeeze the edge of the independent silo 2 with the bottle mouth to achieve a sealing effect, and can also ensure that after the independent silo 2 is pressurized, the pressure can act vertically on the contents 3 in the silo to cause the aluminum foil sealing film to break in a semi-connected manner. In this structure, the independent silo 2 and the cover body 1.2 are split structures, and the contents 3 can be packaged into the independent silo 2 in advance, and then assembled with the cover body 1.2, and the sealing ring 4 can squeeze the edge of the independent silo 2 through the spiral opening of the cover body 1.2.

[0030] See also Figure 2 In this embodiment, the content 3 disposed in the independent silo 2 is also included as a wall-breaking member, and the content 3 can be solid, liquid, or paste. This structure is a wall-breaking structure for the case where the bottom surface of the aluminum foil sealing film of the independent silo 2 is not easily cracked by vibration or inertial impact force. The content 3 is loaded into the silo 2 as a wall-breaking member. After opening the protective cover 1.1, the top of the independent silo 2 can be pressed. The content 3 transmits the pressure to the bottom surface of the aluminum foil sealing film of the independent silo 2, breaks under the pressure, and falls into the bottle body. The aluminum foil sealing film remains semi-connected to the bottom of the independent silo 2 and will not fall into the bottle mouth, but continues to remain connected to the independent silo 2.

[0031] The content 3 can be a liquid, paste or solid as a wall-breaking component. The content 3 as a wall-breaking component can break the bottom aluminum foil and bounce into the bottle body after being subjected to external pressure. It has a simple structure, low cost, and is easy to break the wall. When the uneven pressure breaks the aluminum foil seal at the bottom of the independent silo 2, the aluminum foil will not fall into the bottle. The independent silo 2 and the cover body 1.2 are split structures. This structure is easier to produce and has lower cost. The cover body 1.2 is turned over, and the independent silo 2 is directly loaded into the cover body 1.2, and then the sealing ring 4 is loaded, and the lower end face of the independent silo 2 is fixed in the cover body 1.2. After being tightened with the bottle mouth, it can be sealed and better fix the independent silo 2. It also includes a protective cover 1.1 with a locking structure with the cover body 1.2. The protective cover 1.1 is made of PP, PE, etc., which is the same material as the cover body. It only needs to be made into a locking soft connection structure with the cover body 1.2 during the production of the bottle cap mold. With this structure, it is easier to protect the top surface of the independent silo 2 from being accidentally hit, so that it is not easy to be damaged during storage and transportation. With this structure, the upper cover is the same as the general flat-top beverage bottle cover, so that it is not easy to be damaged during storage and transportation and plays a role of sealing and beauty.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
