Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging technology, and in particular to a connecting component and a container. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, containers that require airtight preservation (such as beverage bottles, sauce bottles, or medicine bottles) on the market typically use aluminum foil to heat-seal the container opening, thereby sealing the container. After sealing, the container lid is then put on.

[0003] However, when using the aforementioned containers, consumers need to open the container lid first and then manually tear off the aluminum foil in order to access the contents of the container, which is inconvenient for consumers. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem of inconvenience in using current containers. This invention provides a connecting component and a container, which can effectively improve the convenience for consumers to open the container.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model discloses a connecting component, comprising:

[0006] The lower connector has an opening that extends through the lower connector along the height direction of the connecting assembly.

[0007] The upper cover has a lower surface, the upper cover is disposed on the lower connector in a separable manner from the lower connector, and when the upper cover is disposed on the lower connector, the lower surface of the upper cover faces the lower connector;

[0008] Seals;

[0009] The connection component has an initial state and an open state;

[0010] In the initial state, the upper cover is placed on the lower connector, the sealing member is fixed to the lower surface of the upper cover, and the sealing member seals the opening;

[0011] In the open state, the upper cover is separated from the lower connector;

[0012] During the process of the connecting component switching from the initial state to the open state, the upper cover body causes the seal to disengage from the opening.

[0013] Using the above technical solution, in the initial state, since the seal is fixed to the lower surface of the upper cover, when the consumer needs to take the contents of the container, they only need to open the upper cover to separate it from the lower connector, and the upper cover will then cause the seal to detach from the opening. Compared to containers on the market that require consumers to manually remove the seal after opening the cap, the connecting component provided in this application allows the consumer to separate the seal from the opening while opening the upper cover, eliminating the need for additional operation and effectively improving the convenience of opening the container.

[0014] Furthermore, with current containers on the market, consumers still need to dispose of them as waste after tearing off the seal. However, in this embodiment, since the seal is fixed to the upper cover, it remains fixed after the consumer opens the upper cover, so the seal will not fall off and there is no need to dispose of it as waste, further improving convenience.

[0097] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0098] refer to Figures 1 to 4AThis application discloses a container 100. The specific type of container 100 is not specifically limited in this application; for example, container 100 can be a beverage bottle, sauce bottle, or medicine bottle, etc., used to store solids or liquids. Exemplarily, this application uses a sauce bottle as an example to describe its structure in detail. Exemplarily, container 100 is a circular container (i.e., the cross-section of container 100 is circular), but it is not limited to this. In other possible embodiments, the cross-section of container 100 can also be rectangular, triangular, pentagonal, or other shapes.

[0099] In this embodiment, the container 100 is made of PET (Polyethylene terephthalate). However, it is understood that this embodiment does not impose any special limitations on the specific material of the container 100. For example, in other possible embodiments, the container 100 may also be made of PE (Polyethylene), PP (Polypropylene), glass, etc. In some other possible embodiments, the container 100 is a multilayer co-extruded bottle.

[0100] To facilitate a detailed description of the specific structure of container 100 later, the height direction Z and circumferential direction R of container 100 are defined here first. Among them, the circumferential direction R surrounds the height direction Z.

[0101] Exemplarily, container 100 includes a container body 101 and a connecting assembly 200. The container body 101 has a receiving cavity 102 and a container opening 103. The receiving cavity 102 is used to store sauce. The container opening 103 allows sauce to flow out of the receiving cavity 102. The connecting assembly 200 is disposed on the container opening 103. The connecting assembly 200 has an initial state and an open state; in the initial state, the connecting assembly 200 seals the container opening 103.

[0102] For example, the connecting component 200 is made of PP (Polypropylene). However, it is understood that the specific material of the connecting component 200 is not specifically limited in this application embodiment. For example, in other possible embodiments, the connecting component 200 may also be made of PE (Polyethylene), PET (Polyethylene terephthalate), etc. In some other possible embodiments, the connecting component 200 may also be made of other mixed materials.

[0103] Specifically, in this embodiment, the connecting component 200 includes a lower connector 220, an upper cover 210, and a sealing member 300. The lower connector 220 covers the container opening 103 and has an opening 222 that extends through the lower connector 220 along the height direction Z, so that the sauce can flow out of the receiving cavity 102 of the container body 101 through the opening 222 for the consumer to use.

[0104] In this embodiment, the lower connector 220 covers the container opening 103 of the container body 101. That is, the lower connector 220 is a lower cover, and the connecting component 200 in this embodiment is a layered container cover.

[0105] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 The lower connector 220 is provided with an internal thread 2201, and the outer wall of the container opening 103 is provided with an external thread 104. The internal thread 2201 and the external thread 104 are threaded together so that the lower connector 220 covers the container opening 103 of the container body 101.

[0106] For example, the upper cover 210 has a lower surface 211, and the upper cover 210 is disposed on the lower connector 220 in a separable manner from the lower connector 220. When the upper cover 210 is disposed on the lower connector 220, the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 faces the lower connector 220.

[0107] For example, the seal 300 is fixed to the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210. The connecting assembly 200 has an initial state and an open state.

[0108] It should be noted that the initial state can be understood as the state of the connecting component 200 when it is completed in production or shipped from the factory, or as the unopened state. The opened state is the state of the connecting component 200 after it has been unsealed or opened by the consumer.

[0109] In the initial state (e.g.) Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown), the upper cover 210 covers the lower connector 220, and the sealing member 300 seals the opening 222 of the lower connector 220. In the open state (e.g.) Figure 2 As shown, the upper cover 210 separates from the lower connector 220, and the seal 300 disengages from the opening 222. During the process of switching the connecting assembly 200 from the initial state to the open state, the upper cover 210 causes the seal 300 to disengage from the opening 222.

[0110] Using the above technical solution, in the initial state, when a consumer needs to take the sauce from the container 100, they only need to open the upper cover 210 to separate the upper cover 210 from the lower connector 220. Since the sealing element 300 is fixed to the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210, the upper cover 210 can drive the sealing element 300 to disengage from the opening 222. Compared to sauce bottles on the market that require consumers to manually remove the sealing element after opening the cap, the container 100 provided in this application embodiment allows consumers to complete the action of separating the sealing element 300 from the opening 222 during the process of opening the upper cover 210, without requiring additional operation from the consumer, effectively improving the convenience of opening the cap.

[0111] Furthermore, in the current market, consumers need to dispose of sauce bottles as waste after tearing off the seal. However, in this embodiment, since the seal 300 is fixed to the upper cover 210, the seal 300 remains fixed to the upper cover 210 after the consumer opens it. Therefore, the seal 300 will not fall off and there is no need to dispose of it as waste, further improving convenience.

[0112] In this embodiment, the sealing element 300 is simultaneously fixed to the upper cover 210 and the lower connector 220. In this embodiment, the sealing element 300 is an aluminum foil gasket 310. Specifically, the aluminum foil gasket 310 is a multi-layer sealing gasket containing aluminum foil. The aluminum foil gasket 310 has a three-layer composite structure, including a functional layer, a hot melt adhesive layer, and an intermediate layer. The intermediate layer is located between the functional layer and the hot melt adhesive layer, and is an aluminum foil layer with a thickness of approximately 0.01 to 0.03 mm (inclusive). As a core barrier layer, the aluminum foil layer reflects over 90% of infrared radiation, blocks oxygen, moisture, and light, and prevents oxidation or moisture absorption of the contents inside the container. The hot melt adhesive layer is used for heat sealing with the opening 222 after heating. The functional layer can be selected as needed, for example, one or more combinations of a polymer layer, a foaming material layer, and a self-adhesive silicone layer. Aluminum foil gasket 310 is characterized by low cost and easy availability, making it economically viable.

[0113] Furthermore, the aluminum foil gasket 310 has good barrier properties, effectively blocking oxygen and moisture from the air to a certain extent, thereby reducing the amount of oxygen and moisture entering the receiving cavity 102 of the container 100. For example, the water vapor transmission rate of the aluminum foil gasket 310 is less than 0.1 g / m³. 2 • Oxygen permeability less than 0.1 cm over 24 hours 3 / (m 2 ·24h·0.1MPa).

[0114] Because aluminum foil gasket 310 has good water and oxygen barrier properties, using aluminum foil gasket 310 as a sealant 300 can reduce the amount of preservatives added to the contents of container 100, which is beneficial to improving food safety.

[0115] It is understood that the specific material of the sealing element 300 is not particularly limited in the embodiments of this application, as long as it can be fixed to the upper cover 210 and seal the opening 222. For example, in other possible embodiments, the sealing element 300 can also be made of materials such as PET (Polyethylene terephthalate), BOPP (Biaxially oriented polypropylene film), or EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer).

[0116] Exemplarily, in this embodiment of the application, the aluminum foil gasket 310 is simultaneously fixed to the upper cover 210 and the lower connector 220. The aluminum foil gasket 310 is fixed to the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 by a fastener 202. Initially, the aluminum foil gasket 310 is fixed to the lower connector 220 by melting, sealing the opening 222. After the aluminum foil gasket 310 melts with the lower connector 220, it remains fixed to the lower connector 220 and seals the opening 222 without external force. When the user opens the upper cover 210, the upper cover 210 can exert external force on the aluminum foil gasket 310, thereby tearing the aluminum foil gasket 310 from the lower connector 220 and disengaging it from the opening 222. For example, when the user opens the upper cover 210, the force exerted by the upper cover 210 on the aluminum foil gasket 310 is 6N to 20N (inclusive). However, it is not limited to this, as long as the aluminum foil gasket 310 can be torn apart from the lower connector 220.

[0117] Compared to traditional containers on the market that only heat-seal aluminum foil at the container opening, this embodiment of the application fixes the aluminum foil gasket 310 to the upper cover 210 and fixes the aluminum foil gasket 310 to the lower connector 220 by melting. This is equivalent to achieving heat sealing during the bottle cap production stage, eliminating the heat sealing process in the product manufacturing plant. In other words, the product manufacturing plant only needs to cover the container opening with the connector 200.

[0118] Furthermore, since current market practices typically involve directly sealing the bottle opening with a sealant, the sealing process usually takes place at the product manufacturing plant. However, in this embodiment, both the upper cap 210 and the lower connector 220 are part of the bottle cap, and the aluminum foil gasket 310 seals the lower connector 220. Therefore, the sealing process can be completed during the bottle cap production stage, avoiding the impact of different manufacturers' sealing equipment or operators that could lead to decreased consistency and stability. In other words, the connecting assembly 200 provided in this embodiment exhibits superior sealing stability.

[0119] Furthermore, since the aluminum foil gasket 310 is fixed to the upper cover 210, during the opening process, the aluminum foil gasket 310 can be directly torn off by the fixing force of the upper cover 210 on the aluminum foil gasket 310 (i.e., the force of the first retaining ring 240 on the aluminum foil gasket 310, as described below), eliminating the need to tear the aluminum foil after opening the cover, thus bringing convenience to consumers.

[0120] Specifically, refer to Figures 3 to 5 and combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fastener 202 is a first retaining ring 240, which includes a first engaging portion 241. Exemplarily, the first engaging portion 241 extends along the circumferential direction R of the first retaining ring 240 (i.e., the circumferential direction of the container 100) and protrudes from the outer wall 242 of the first retaining ring 240. Figure 4A The first snap-fit ​​portion 241 and the outer wall 242 of the first snap ring 240 form an "L" shaped structure.

[0121] For example, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4A and combined Figure 1 The lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 is provided with a fixing groove 212. The aluminum foil gasket 310 is engaged in the fixing groove 212 by a first retaining ring 240, thereby fixing the aluminum foil gasket 310 to the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210. Specifically, the inner sidewall 213 of the fixing groove 212 is provided with a second engaging portion 214, which extends along the circumferential direction R (i.e., the circumferential direction of the container 100) of the inner sidewall 213 of the fixing groove 212 and protrudes from the inner sidewall 213 of the fixing groove 212. The first engaging portion 241 engages with the second engaging portion 214 to engage the first retaining ring 240 in the fixing groove 212.

[0122] By adopting the above solution, a fixing groove 212 is provided on the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210, and the aluminum foil gasket 310 is snapped into the fixing groove 212. Thus, the area of ​​the aluminum foil gasket 310 is the same as that of the fixing groove 212, which can effectively reduce the area of ​​the aluminum foil gasket 310 and save the material cost of the aluminum foil gasket 310.

[0123] In this embodiment, the aluminum foil pad 310 is circular, but it is not limited to this. In other possible embodiments, the aluminum foil pad 310 can also be square, triangular, pentagonal, or other polygonal shapes. Exemplarily, the aluminum foil pad 310 has a snap-fit ​​periphery 311 and a central portion 312. The snap-fit ​​periphery 311 is disposed around the central portion 312.

[0124] Along the height direction Z, the snap-fit ​​periphery 311 is fixed between the first snap-fit ​​portion 241 and the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210, thereby fixing the aluminum foil gasket 310 to the upper cover 210. In the initial state, the middle portion 312 is fixed to the lower connector 220 by melting, thereby sealing the opening 222.

[0125] For example, the area of ​​the snap-fit ​​periphery 311 accounts for 10% to 50% (inclusive) of the total area of ​​the aluminum foil gasket 310. Preferably, in this embodiment, the area of ​​the snap-fit ​​periphery 311 accounts for 15% of the total area of ​​the aluminum foil gasket 310. This results in a relatively small proportion of the area of ​​the snap-fit ​​periphery 311 to the total area of ​​the aluminum foil gasket 310, improving the utilization rate of the aluminum foil gasket 310 and saving material costs while fixing the aluminum foil gasket 310 to the upper cover 210.

[0126] It is understood that the present application does not impose special restrictions on the proportion of the area of ​​the snap-fit ​​periphery 311 to the total area of ​​the aluminum foil gasket 310. For example, in other possible implementations, the area of ​​the snap-fit ​​periphery 311 may account for 10%, 20%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 46%, or 50% of the total area of ​​the aluminum foil gasket 310.

[0127] It is understood that the embodiments of this application do not impose special limitations on the specific forms of the first latching portion 241 and the second latching portion 214. For example, in some possible embodiments, the first latching portion 241 is an annular groove, and the second latching portion 214 is an annular flange. The first latching portion 241 and the second latching portion 214 engage in a concave-convex fit to define the first retaining ring 240 to the upper cover 210. As another example, in some other possible embodiments, the first latching portion 241 is an annular flange, and the second latching portion 214 is an annular groove. The first latching portion 241 and the second latching portion 214 engage in a concave-convex fit to define the first retaining ring 240 to the upper cover 210.

[0128] In the manufacturing process of the connecting assembly 200 of this embodiment, the aluminum foil gasket 310 is first placed in the fixing groove 212, then the first retaining ring 240 is snapped into the fixing groove 212, and finally, the upper cover 210 is placed on the lower connector 220, and the aluminum foil gasket 310 is fixed to the lower connector 220 by melting. In other words, the connecting assembly 200 of this embodiment completes the fixing of the aluminum foil gasket 310 to the upper cover 210 and the lower connector 220 during the manufacturing process.

[0129] After the aluminum foil gasket 310 is fixed to the lower connector 220 by melting, the seal of the aluminum foil gasket 310 on the opening 222 can only be released by tearing the aluminum foil gasket 310 open with external force. In other words, when the consumer opens the upper cover 210, the upper cover 210 provides an external force to the aluminum foil gasket 310 to tear it open.

[0130] For example, refer to Figure 4B In some other possible embodiments, during the production process of the connecting assembly 200, the first retaining ring 240 is placed below the aluminum foil gasket 310, and then the aluminum foil gasket 310 is fixed to the lower connector 220 by melting. Finally, the upper cover 210 is placed on the lower connector 220 so that the second snap-fit ​​portion 214 in the fixing groove 212 snaps with the first snap-fit ​​portion 241 of the first retaining ring 240, thereby fixing the aluminum foil gasket 310 in the fixing groove 212.

[0131] In some possible implementations, refer to Figure 6 and combined Figure 1 The lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 does not have a fixing groove, but a third snap-fit ​​portion 217 is provided on the inner sidewall 216 of the upper cover 210. The third snap-fit ​​portion 217 extends along the circumferential direction R (i.e., the circumferential direction of the container 100) of the inner sidewall 216 of the upper cover 210 and protrudes from the inner sidewall 216. The third snap-fit ​​portion 217 snaps into the first snap-fit ​​portion 241 to snap the first retaining ring 240 into the upper cover 210. Exemplarily, along the height direction Z, the snap-fit ​​periphery 311 of the aluminum foil gasket 310 is located between the second snap-fit ​​portion 214 and the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210, thereby fixing the aluminum foil gasket 310 to the upper cover 210.

[0132] It is understood that the embodiments of this application do not impose special limitations on the specific forms of the first latching portion 241 and the third latching portion 217. For example, in some possible embodiments, the first latching portion 241 is an annular groove, and the third latching portion 217 is an annular flange. The first latching portion 241 and the third latching portion 217 engage with each other to define the first retaining ring 240 to the upper cover 210. As another example, in some other possible embodiments, the first latching portion 241 is an annular flange, and the third latching portion 217 is an annular groove. The first latching portion 241 and the third latching portion 217 engage with each other to define the first retaining ring 240 to the upper cover 210.

[0133] In some other possible implementations, refer to Figure 7 and combined Figure 1 The upper surface of the aluminum foil pad 310 is provided with a first connecting portion 313, and the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 is provided with a second connecting portion 218. The first connecting portion 313 and the second connecting portion 218 are connected to fix the aluminum foil pad 310 to the upper cover 210. Exemplarily, in this embodiment of the application, the first connecting portion 313 is a buckle, and the second connecting portion 218 is a hook. In the initial state, the hook hooks onto the buckle to fix the aluminum foil pad 310 to the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210. When the consumer opens the upper cover 210, the hook can drive the buckle to tear the aluminum foil pad 310, thereby causing the aluminum foil pad 310 to disengage from the opening 222.

[0134] It is understood that the specific types of the first connecting part 313 and the second connecting part 218 are not specifically limited in the embodiments of this application. For example, in some possible implementations, the first connecting part 313 may be a hook and the second connecting part 218 may be a buckle. Furthermore, in other possible implementations, the first connecting part 313 and the second connecting part 218 may be other types of structures, as long as they enable the second connecting part 218 to drive the first connecting part 313 to tear open the aluminum foil gasket 310 when the consumer opens the top cover 210, thereby disengaging the aluminum foil gasket 310 from the opening 222.

[0135] Exemplary, in other possible embodiments, the aluminum foil gasket 310 can also be fixed to the upper cover 210 by means of adhesive, for example. It should be noted that when the aluminum foil gasket 310 is fixed to the upper cover 210 by adhesive, the fastener 202 is glue.

[0136] Continue to refer to Figures 1 to 4A In this embodiment of the application, the lower connector 220 has a top wall 221 and an opening 222 is provided on the top wall 221.

[0137] Specifically, the top wall 221 of the lower connector 220 is provided with a first protrusion 223. When the upper cover 210 is placed on the lower connector 220, the first protrusion 223 protrudes towards the upper cover 210. Exemplarily, an opening 222 is provided on the first protrusion 223, and the opening 222 extends through the first protrusion 223 along the height direction Z. Exemplarily, in this embodiment, in the initial state, the middle portion 312 of the aluminum foil gasket 310 is fused to the first protrusion 223, sealing the opening 222.

[0138] For example, when the upper cover 210 is placed on the lower connector 220, the first protrusion 223 extends into the fixing groove 212, and the first protrusion 223 is press-fitted with the inner sidewall 213 of the fixing groove 212 to snap the upper cover 210 onto the lower connector 220. Simultaneously, the press-fit between the first protrusion 223 and the fixing groove 212 further improves the sealing effect on the opening 222.

[0139] Understandably, once the consumer tears open the aluminum foil gasket 310 through the top cover 210 for the first time, the sealing effect of the aluminum foil gasket 310 on the opening 222 is no longer present. However, due to the interference fit between the first protrusion 223 and the fixing groove 212, the opening 222 can be sealed a second time, allowing the contents of the container 100 to continue to be stored for a period of time.

[0140] In some possible implementations, refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The top wall 221 of the lower connector 220 does not have a first protrusion 223, meaning the upper surface of the top wall 221 of the lower connector 220 is a plane. Correspondingly, the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 protrudes towards the top wall 221 of the lower connector 220. Correspondingly, the lower surface of the upper cover 210 has a fixing groove 212, and the aluminum foil gasket 310 is glued to the fixing groove 212. Furthermore, the lower surface 314 of the aluminum foil gasket 310 is flush with the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210, so that in the initial state, the aluminum foil gasket 310 can contact the upper surface of the top wall 221, and the aluminum foil gasket 310 can be fused to the upper surface of the top wall 221, thereby sealing the opening 222. Exemplarily, the aluminum foil gasket 310 can also be fixed to the fixing groove 212 by a first retaining ring 240.

[0141] In some other possible implementations, the aluminum foil pad 310 may also protrude from the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210.

[0142] By adopting the above solution, a top wall 221 is provided on the lower connector 220, and the opening 222 is located on the top wall 221. This makes the area of ​​the opening 222 smaller than the area of ​​the container opening 103. Therefore, the aluminum foil gasket 310 only needs to cover the opening 222 to achieve a seal on the container opening 103, reducing the area of ​​the aluminum foil gasket 310 required and saving material costs. Furthermore, because the area of ​​the opening 222 is smaller than the container opening 103, the seal of the aluminum foil gasket 310 on the opening 222 is more stable.

[0143] Exemplarily, in some possible implementations, in the initial state, the seal 300 is fixed to the upper cover 210, and the seal 300 is not fixed to the lower connector 220. (See reference...) Figures 10 to 11 In this embodiment of the application, the sealing element 300 is a rubber plug 320.

[0144] Exemplarily, in some possible embodiments, the rubber stopper 320 can be fixed to the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 by the aforementioned first retaining ring 240. Accordingly, the rubber stopper 320 includes a retaining periphery 321 and a middle portion 322, with the retaining periphery 321 surrounding the middle portion 322. Along the height direction Z, the retaining periphery 321 of the rubber stopper 320 is located between the first retaining portion 241 of the first retaining ring 240 and the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210, thereby fixing the rubber stopper 320 to the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210. However, this is not the only possibility; for example, in other possible embodiments, the rubber stopper 320 can also be fixed to the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 by means of adhesive, for example. It should be noted that when the rubber stopper 320 is fixed to the upper cover 210 by adhesive, the fixing member 202 is glue.

[0145] It should be noted that "not fixed" between the seal 300 and the lower connector 220 means, for example, that there is no fixing structure between the seal 300 and the lower connector 220; that is, the seal 300 is not fixed to the lower connector 220 by melting, gluing, or other means. Exemplarily, the seal 300 seals the opening 222 by fitting against the outer edge of the opening 222 of the lower connector 220, or the seal 300 is inserted into the opening 222 of the connector 220 and abuts against the inner wall of the opening 222 to achieve a seal. In this embodiment, the rubber stopper 320 is not fixed to the lower connector 220. In the initial state, the upper cover 210 covers the lower connector 220. At this time, the upper cover 210 provides a downward pressure on the rubber stopper 320 towards the lower connector 220, so that the rubber stopper 320 abuts against the opening 222, thereby sealing the opening 222.

[0146] Specifically, the middle portion 322 of the rubber stopper 320 protrudes relative to the snap-fit ​​periphery 321. When the upper cover 210 is placed on the lower connector 220, the middle portion 322 of the rubber stopper 320 protrudes toward the opening 222 of the lower connector 220, so that the rubber stopper 320 can abut against the opening 222, thereby sealing the opening 222.

[0147] When the consumer opens the upper cover 210, the upper cover 210 can disengage the rubber stopper 320 from the opening 222, allowing the consumer to access the sauce. It is understood that, since this embodiment seals the opening 222 by abutting the rubber stopper 320 against the opening 222, rather than by fixing the rubber stopper 320 to the lower connector 220, the sealing effect of the rubber stopper 320 is not affected even after the consumer opens the upper cover 210. That is, when the consumer replaces the upper cover 210 with the lower connector 220, the rubber stopper 320 can still seal the opening 222. This is beneficial for the long-term use and preservation of the sauce.

[0148] The embodiments of this application do not impose special restrictions on the way the upper cover 210 and the lower connector 220 are installed.

[0149] For example, in some possible implementations, refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13 The upper cover 210 is attached to the lower connector 220 via a snap-fit ​​mechanism. Specifically, the inner wall 216 of the upper cover 210 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​2161. The top wall 221 of the lower connector 220 is provided with a connecting wall 224, which extends along the circumferential direction R of the upper cover 210 (i.e., the circumferential direction of the container 100). The outer surface of the connecting wall 224 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​2241. The first snap-fit ​​2161 engages with the second snap-fit ​​2241 to secure the upper cover 210 to the lower connector 220.

[0150] For example, in some other possible implementations, refer to Figure 14 and Figure 15 The upper cover 210 is threaded onto the lower connector 220. Specifically, the inner wall 216 of the upper cover 210 has an internal thread 2162. The top wall 221 of the lower connector 220 has a connecting wall 224, which extends along the circumferential direction R of the upper cover 210 (i.e., the circumferential direction of the container 100). The outer surface of the connecting wall 224 has a first external thread 2242. The internal thread 2162 and the first external thread 2242 are threaded together to secure the upper cover 210 onto the lower connector 220.

[0151] Using the above technical solution, the upper cover 210 and the lower connector 220 are connected by a thread. When the consumer opens the upper cover 210, he / she needs to twist the upper cover 210, so that the upper cover 210 drives the aluminum foil gasket 310 to generate a circumferential rotational force R, thereby breaking the weld between the aluminum foil gasket 310 and the lower connector 220, so that the aluminum foil gasket 310 is separated from the opening 222.

[0152] For example, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figures 8 to 11 In some possible implementations, the container 100 of this application embodiment also includes a lid connecting part 201, one end of which is fixed to the upper cover body 210 and the other end is fixed to the lower connector 220. That is to say, the connecting component 200 of this application embodiment is a flip cover.

[0153] It should be noted that when the container 100 is provided with the lid connecting part 201, after the consumer opens the upper lid 210, the upper lid 210 is connected to the lower connector 220 through the lid connecting part 201. However, at this time, the upper lid 210 and the lower connector 220 are still in a separate state, that is, the upper lid 210 is not covered by the lower connector 220.

[0154] For example, in some other possible implementations, no cover connection is provided, that is, the upper cover 210 and the lower connector 220 are two independent components.

[0155] refer to Figures 1 to 4A A silicone valve 230 is provided inside the opening 222 to control the flow rate of the sauce. For example, when the container 100 is normally inverted, the sauce in the receiving cavity 102 cannot be poured out due to the presence of the silicone valve 230, effectively preventing sauce leakage. When a consumer needs to take the sauce, they can squeeze the container body 101 to increase the pressure inside the receiving cavity 102, thereby allowing the sauce to flow out of the opening 222 through the silicone valve 230. Exemplarily, along the height direction Z, the seal 300 is located above the silicone valve 230. In the initial state, because the seal 300 seals the opening 222, the sauce cannot flow out of the opening 222 through the silicone valve 230. When the consumer opens the upper cover 210, thereby separating the seal from the opening 222, the sauce can flow out of the opening 222 through the silicone valve 230.

[0156] For example, the silicone valve 230 is confined within the opening 222 by a limiting member 231. Specifically, the limiting member 231 is an annular component with a limiting groove 2311 at its upper end and a first abutment portion 2312 on its outer side. Correspondingly, the outer edge of the silicone valve 230 is provided with a limiting portion 2301. The inner wall of the opening 222 is provided with a second abutment portion 232. The second abutment portion 232 abuts against the first abutment portion 2312 to confine the limiting member 231 within the opening 222. Along the height direction Z, the limiting portion 2301 is located between the limiting member 231 and the top wall 221, and the limiting portion 2301 is accommodated within the limiting groove 2311, thereby confining the silicone valve 230 within the opening 222.

[0157] The embodiments of this application do not impose special restrictions on the specific manner in which the silicone valve 230 is disposed within the opening 222. For example, in some possible implementations, the silicone valve 230 may also be disposed within the opening 222 by means of bonding or other methods.

[0158] refer to Figures 16 to 20 In another possible implementation, the lower connector 220 is part of the container body 101. Specifically, the lower connector 220 is the sidewall of the container opening 103, that is, in this embodiment, the container opening 103 is a sidewall. In other words, in this embodiment, the upper cover 210 directly covers the container opening 103.

[0159] The specific manner in which the upper cover 210 is placed over the container opening 103 can be understood by referring to the previous section on the manner in which the upper cover 210 is placed over the lower connector 220. Correspondingly, the specific manner in which the seal 300 is fixed to the upper cover 210 can be understood by referring to the previous section on the specific manner in which the seal is fixed to the upper cover 210.

[0160] refer to Figure 17 and Figure 18 In this embodiment of the application, the sealing member 300 is fixed to the upper cover 210 by a fastener 202 such as a first retaining ring 240.

[0161] refer to Figure 19 and Figure 20 In some other possible embodiments, the upper surface of the seal 300 is provided with a first connecting portion 313, and the lower surface 211 of the upper cover 210 is provided with a second connecting portion 218. The second connecting portion 218 is connected to the first connecting portion 313 to fix the seal 300 to the upper cover 210.

[0162] For example, refer to Figure 17 and Figure 20In some possible implementations, the inner sidewall 216 of the upper cover 210 is provided with a first buckle 2161, and the outer wall of the lower connector 220 is provided with a third buckle 225. The first buckle 2161 and the third buckle 225 are engaged so that the upper cover 210 covers the lower connector 220.

[0163] For example, refer to Figure 18 In some other possible embodiments, the inner wall 216 of the upper cover 210 is provided with an internal thread 2162, and the outer wall of the lower connector 220 is provided with a second external thread 226. The internal thread 2162 and the second external thread 226 are threadedly engaged to cover the lower connector 220 with the upper cover 210.

[0164] Thus, this application describes a connecting component and a container. By fixing a seal to the upper cover of the connecting component, the upper cover can cause the seal to separate from the opening during the process of the consumer opening the upper cover, so that the consumer can easily access the items inside the container, effectively improving the convenience of opening the lid for the consumer.

[0165] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to certain preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the above description is a further detailed explanation of the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments, and should not be construed as limiting the specific implementation of the present invention to these descriptions. Those skilled in the art can make various changes in form and detail, including some simple deductions or substitutions, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
