AI Technical Summary
Existing pouring caps struggle to effectively penetrate and seal cardboard containers without tearing the packaging material, leading to incomplete sealing and potential leakage.
A pouring cap with a perforating tip and tubular sleeve made of hard plastic, featuring perforations and a cone design, allows easy penetration and automatic sealing by gravity, ensuring secure closure and opening.
Enables seamless penetration and automatic sealing of cardboard containers, preventing leakage and ensuring effective opening and closing without tearing the packaging material.
Abstract
Description
The main patent, S.I72'j, describes a pouring stopper. safety, anti-pollution, with programmed flow regulators opening and closing by itself due to gravity, and designed to be positioned in the neck of a container holding a liquid. While it is true that the cap can be easily inserted in a container with a neck, however, it becomes practical It is impossible to introduce it in any way into a kind of narrative. Pient presented in the form of cardboard packaging, box type cardboard such as, for example, the packs sold in stores These are intended for the packaging of liquids, particularly beverages or powders. The present invention aims to create a pouring cap of the type described in the main patent and which ensures it by its nature even a normal, practical, effective penetration, achieving an intro instantaneous duction in a wall of this type of container for to allow its opening, and especially its automatic closing by gravity. This result is achieved according to the invention through means new ones that will now be described by referring to a mode of implementing the invention. For this, one must refer to the attached drawings in which the one in figure I illustrates as follows for example, a cross-sectional view of the piercing pouring cap according to the invention. Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the piercing pouring cap according to the invention. The cap in Figure I is made of a hard, rigid plastic material, possibly of the iXylon type (registered trademark); The fixed part is a cylindrical tubular sleeve, conical in the direction of its base which extends into a surface forming an inverted cone 18 of which the tip of the summit is characterized by a sharp point 19, piercing, designed to pierce and pass completely through the wall cardboard of a container and to allow the insertion of the cap at any point on any of its faces. The sleeve Tubular and conical shapes are characterized by a perforated surface. dotted with holes separated from each other, representing openings Transit tunnels 20, designed to allow the free passage of traffic guides or powders through the body of the pouring cap. The cap in Figure 2 shows in perspective the cone comprising in its vertical direction an inlet light 21 which is characterized teresise by a rectangular opening of sufficient size Jur to allow easy access to the regulating ring located on the rod 11 in order to be able to move it to adjust the opening of - the spupape 9. To insert and fit the cap to the container, simply press the piercing point against the side of the container to create a hole equal to the outer diameter of the sleeve. Then, push the sleeve fully into the container with a rotating motion. This will gradually tear the cardboard material, forcing it into the container and spreading out in a circular motion without falling inside. The cap is then perfectly positioned and sealed against the surface of the container. The cap is now in place and ready for use. When you tilt the container, it opens by itself. When you straighten it, it closes by itself due to gravity. To remove the plug, simply pull it upwards out of the hole. The perforating part of the pouring cap, which is part of the main patent, allows the cap to be inserted very easily into any cardboard container or packaging as often as necessary, ensuring an operation that allows for mandatory automatic opening and resealing of the container. The piercing pouring cap is also designed to avoid opening (as is currently practiced) a cardboard container by tearing and removing a piece of its wall to create a pouring opening that cannot be closed afterwards to enclose and protect the remaining contents. It is intended for use by consumers of beverages packaged in cardboard-type packaging, such as packs. Specifically, packs of wine, milk, sodas, fruit juices, etc., and all alcoholic liquids in general. It can also be used for pouring powdered products, for example laundry detergents. It is intended for use in the manufacture, operation and marketing in the industry of packaging in roller boxes containing liquids or powders.
Claims
DEMANDS. 1 / Pouring cap relating by addition to the main patent N 89.1720S according to claim 1 of this patent. Characterized in that it comprises a cylindrical, tubular, conical piercing sleeve 1 in the direction of its base which extends to form an inverted cone 18 whose apex is a point 1S made of hard material intended to pierce and pass through the wall of a cardboard container by creating a hole equal to the outside diameter of the sleeve 1 and thus allow the introduction of the stopper into the container. 2 / Device according to the preceding claim characterized in that the sleeve 1 and the cone 18 have a surface dotted with perforations which are transit openings 20 intended to allow the free passage of liquids or powders. 3 / Device according to claim 8 of the main patent and the preceding claims taken as a whole characterized in that the cone 18 has in the direction of its height a rectangular opening which is an intake light 21 of sufficient size to allow access to the sliding ring allowing adjustment of the opening of the valve 9.
