Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a bottle mouth thread insert, a sealing device and an aluminum bottle, and belongs to the technical field of aluminum bottle sealing structures. Background Art

[0002] Aluminum bottles are packaging containers formed by aluminum ingots through multiple neck shrinking and stamping processes. The sealing of aluminum bottles is generally done by rolling threads at the mouth of the bottle. Since the overall wall thickness of aluminum bottles is relatively thin, when processing threads at the mouth of the bottle, the mouth of the bottle often breaks, causing the entire aluminum bottle to become scrap. Not only does it waste materials and place high requirements on the molding mold, but it also undoubtedly increases the production cost required to produce aluminum bottles. In addition, aluminum bottles used for food packaging will be coated with a protective coating on the surface of the aluminum material before processing. The coating is prone to wear when processing threads, and the wear resistance of repeated screwing of the cap is not as good as that of plastic threads. These shortcomings may cause the coating to peel off when using aluminum bottles, affecting the risk of food safety.

[0003] Authorization announcement number CN213110514U discloses an aluminum bottle with an external threaded insert. In order to achieve a relatively fixed position between the external threaded insert and the bottle mouth, an axial limiter and a circumferential limiter are provided between the threaded insert and the bottle mouth, wherein the axial limit is achieved by a curling structure that folds the bottle mouth toward the outside, and the circumferential limit is achieved by at least one positioning protrusion that extends toward the inner wall of the plastic insert and is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the bottle mouth. Obviously, this circumferential limit method increases the processing difficulty of the bottle body and the plastic insert, and when the two are assembled, the plastic insert needs to be heated. Although it can solve the assembly problem, it will also cause the plastic insert to deform, affecting its stability in subsequent use, and it is difficult to achieve a substantial positioning effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a bottle mouth thread insert, a sealing device and a metal aluminum bottle.

[0005] In the first aspect, the utility model provides a bottle mouth thread insert, which is embedded in the neck of an aluminum bottle near the bottle mouth, and is used to fit and engage with a bottle cap to implement the closure of the bottle mouth. The feature of the bottle mouth thread insert is that it includes a sleeve body and:

[0006] The abutment end is configured at the upper end of the sleeve body to abut and fit with the rolled edge of the bottle mouth;

[0007] The stop cone section is arranged at the lower end of the inner hole of the sleeve body and is in the shape of an outwardly expanding cone sleeve, so as to adapt to the expanded neck section of the bottleneck;

[0008] A threaded section, formed on the outer periphery of the sleeve body and located below the abutment end, for connecting with a matching bottle cap;

[0009] The clamping and converging grooves are configured in at least two groups, each group has two clamping and converging grooves, and the two clamping and converging grooves are obliquely slotted and have opposite slotting directions.

[0010] Furthermore, the abutting end is an L-shaped step arranged at the upper end of the sleeve body, the vertical section of which is embedded in the groove of the bottle mouth curling and contacts the inner side surface thereof, and the horizontal section of which is pressed and abutted against the bottle mouth curling.

[0011] Furthermore, the clamping and converging groove starts from the abutting end of the sleeve body and ends below the threaded section.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottle mouth thread insert is a plastic part.

[0013] In the second aspect, the utility model discloses a closing device, which is used to seal the mouth of a metal aluminum bottle, including a bottle neck and a bottle mouth curling structure roll-formed at the bottle mouth, characterized in that the bottle neck is surrounded by a bottle mouth thread insert as described above.

[0014] In a third aspect, the utility model provides a metal aluminum bottle, comprising a neck of a bottle and a bottle mouth curling structure roll-formed at the bottle mouth, characterized in that the bottle mouth thread insert as described above is provided around the neck of the bottle.

[0015] The bottle mouth threaded insert of the utility model realizes the fixation of the relative position between the insert and the bottleneck through various integrally formed functional structures. On the one hand, the top of the insert is hooked and connected with the bottle mouth roll structure by adopting the abutting end of the L-shaped step, and the bottom of the insert is pushed and adapted with the expanded neck section of the bottleneck through the stop cone section, and the upper and lower pushing forces ensure the axial stability of the insert; on the other hand, the clamping and restraining grooves opened on the outer periphery of the insert can apply a clamping and contracting force to the bottleneck when the insert is assembled, so that the insert and the bottleneck maintain an interference fit, thereby achieving more stable circumferential positioning.
