Definitions
- the present invention relates to sealing device made of plastic for attachment to a closed container made of film material, consisting of a spout part with spout and a flange for attachment to the container and a cap which can be placed on the spout part, and a cylindrical piercing with an external thread in axial direction is open on both sides and runs in the spout of the spout into an internal thread, wherein in the cap at least one driver is present, by means of which before the initial opening of the cap, the piercing screw is movable downwardly, and that the cylindrical piercer on the cylindrical wall , At the end which is directed in the assembled state to the container wall, at least one cutting tooth (12) is formed.
- tubular bags On the market today, a large number of tubular bags are represented, but the majority of which are made of multilayer films, especially such films, the at least one layer of paper, a layer of plastic and a layer Have aluminum. These tubular bags are relatively pressure-resistant and are designed predominantly cubic.
- tubular bags which consist only of plastic film
- tubular bags are common as refills for cosmetics.
- Tubular bags that are made of pure plastic film usually either have no closure and for removal, only a portion of the tubular bag is cut away and the contents of the tubular bag transferred to a container, or alternatively, tubular bags are made of plastic, which have a flange with spout and a pure screw cap attached to it.
- Plastic closures consisting of a lower part with a spout and a cap connected to the lower part via a hinge, are available on the market in any number of variants, but their attachment to tubular bags is out of the question.
- Plastic bag made of plastic are highly flexible and accordingly act on these during transport and handling relatively large Forces that lead to deformation of the tubular bag and increase the internal pressure accordingly.
- Hinge closures are usually unable to withstand these forces. For safety reasons, therefore, today usually only plastic closures are used on tubular bags as pure screw caps.
- closures which are known for example from WO 2004/000667, WO 2004/083055, EP 1533240, EP 1795456 or CH 695019, have a cylindrical piercing, which is open on both sides in the axial direction and the at least one driver on the cap when unscrewing the cap moves axially in opposite directions down while cutting the film of the bag within the range of the spout. As soon as the film of the tubular bag is cut open, it works
- Closure device as a simple screw cap. These screw caps are now opened and closed several times during use. Now, as soon as the actual opening of the tubular bag is done, it would thus be desirable if the cap away from this moment as a simple Swivel hinge lock could act. However, this is not possible with the previously known closures.
- Schwenkschnappscharnier can act. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a closure device which is operable after the first opening and thus the opening of the tubular bag both as Schwenkscharnierver gleich as well as, if the tubular bag should be transported again after the initial opening, as a screw cap actuated in a secured position can be brought.
- the first object solves a closure device with the features of claim 1.
- the second object and other objects solve closure devices with the features of the dependent claims.
- the closure device according to the invention is designated overall by 1. It is mounted on a film of a closed, bag-like container B. The attachment is preferably carried out by means of ultrasonic welding, but can also be done by gluing.
- the closure device 1 consists of a spout part 2, a cylindrical piercer 5, and as a third part, a pivoting hinge closure 20th
- the spout part 2 comprises a cylindrical spout 6 at the lower edge of a radially outwardly directed flange 3 is formed.
- the cylindrical part of the spout part 2 is referred to here as a spout 6 and is integrally connected to the aforementioned flange 3.
- the spout 6 has an internal thread 8, in which the yet to be described, cylindrical piercing 5 is movably guided.
- the outside of the spout 6 is designed thread-free. Only in the lower region, just above the flange 3 and extending approximately parallel to this, a circumferential retaining collar 13 is arranged directed outwards.
- the already mentioned internal thread 8 of the spout 6 has a rectangular, trapezoidal shape.
- the inclined edge of the trapezoid is inclined towards the upper end of the spout 6, so that the piercer 5 can not be screwed during assembly but can be pushed in like a ratchet.
- the cylindrical piercer which essentially has the shape known from the prior art, has an external thread 7, which mates with the external thread 8 of the spout 6. The piercer 5 can thus be moved helically downward in the spout 6 of the spout part 2.
- the piercer 6 with its cylindrical wall 11 has a lower edge, which is designed overall as a cutting edge, and has at least one cutting tooth 12, which lies directly above the film of the container B prior to the first actuation of the closure device 1.
- a driver 10 On the inside of the cylindrical wall 11 of the penetrator 5, a driver 10 is formed.
- This driver 10 consists of an elongated, inwardly directed element.
- a pivoting hinge closure 20 On the spout 6 or on the spout part 2, a pivoting hinge closure 20 is placed.
- Pivot hinge closure 20 is in one piece, but has a lower part 21 and a cap 24, which are connected to each other via a pivotal connection 22, but preferably via a clamping wall belt 23 pivotally connected to each other.
- the cap 24 has a cover surface 26, on whose lower, inwardly directed side a driver 9 is formed.
- This driver 9 is practically over its entire, directed from top to bottom, length to a corresponding driver 10 of the piercer 5 at.
- the Swiveling hinge closure 20 can be rotated relative to the pouring part 2.
- the axial, relative altitude, at least the lower part 21, relative to the spout 6 does not change.
- the lower part 21 has positive locking means 25 which cooperate with corresponding positive locking means 13 on the spout 6.
- This retaining bead is designed in the embodiment shown here in cross section as a nose.
- the swivel hinge closure 20 can consequently be simply placed on the spout 6 in the assembly machine and pressed straight down, wherein in the end position the retaining bead 25 engages under the retaining collar 13.
- the swiveling hinge closure 20 can thus be rotated relative to the spout 6, without the swiveling hinge closure 20 altogether changing its relative height to the spout 6.
- the piercing element 5 is set into a corresponding rotational movement by the two mutually engaging drivers 9 and 10.
- the piercer 5 screws down and the incisor 12 pierces the film of the self-contained container B and now opens the tubular bag for the first time.
- the piercer 5 is now screwed down as far as this by means of corresponding latching means, not here are shown, come into engagement, in which position the two drivers 9 and 10 are no longer engaged. In a reverse direction of rotation after the initial opening thus remains the piercer in its locked end position stand.
- the actual cap 24 of the pivoting hinge closure 20 and the lower part 21 of the pivoting hinge closure are already secured on the one hand via the pivot connection 22 and / or the clamping band 23 against a relative distortion of these two parts. Since the torque between the cap 24 and the lower part 21 may be relatively large, if the user initiates only the rotational movement only via the cap 24, it may be useful to form at the bottom of the jacket wall of the cap 24 downwardly directed tabs 14 which engage in corresponding recesses 27 in the shell wall of the lower part 21. These tabs 14 can simultaneously form a guarantee element, which can be demolished after the corresponding rotational movement. Of course, instead of a tab, a plurality of such tabs 14 are also conceivable, which can engage in corresponding recesses 27.
- the tabs 14 may also be arranged contiguously on a guarantee strip.
- the spout 6 may have on its outer side an external thread 30, which only in the region of the cap 24th is available.
- the cap 24 in turn has an internal thread 28 which cooperates with the external thread 30 on the spout 6. If, in turn, the pivoting hinge closure 20 is rotated during the first actuation, then the relative height of the lower part 21 to the spout 6 does not change, while at the same time, however, the cap 24 performs a relatively small upward movement. This changes the relative height between the cap 24 and the lower part 21. At the same time the tension band 23 is tensioned. The strap 23 now changes the pure
- the cap 24 After the first opening, the cap 24 will now only be actuated in a pivoting manner. However, it is possible, if you want to close the container in the opened state in turn, and wants to carry this example in a backpack, so it is possible to screw the actual pivot cap 24 by a corresponding rotational movement again. Now the cap 24 practically works again as a simple screw cap. If you want to drink something from the container, so you have to turn the screw movement to move the cap 24 relative to the lower part 21, in turn, the tension band 23 is tensioned and now the cap 24 in turn acts as a pivot cap a SchnappscharnierverInstitutes.

Seit einiger Zeit sind jedoch auch Schlauchbeutel, die nur aus Kunststofffolie bestehen, auf dem Markt. Insbesondere sind solche Schlauchbeutel als Nachfüllbeutel für Kosmetika üblich. Schlauchbeutel, die aus reiner Kunststofffolie gefertigt sind, besitzen üblicherweise entweder gar keinen Verschluss und zur Entnahme wird lediglich ein Teil des Schlauchbeutels weggeschnitten und der Inhalt des Schlauchbeutels in einen Behälter umgeleert, oder alternativ sind auch Schlauchbeutel aus Kunststoff vorhanden, die einen Flansch mit Ausgusstülle aufweisen und darauf angebracht ein reiner Schraubverschluss . For some time, however, tubular bags, which consist only of plastic film, on the market. In particular, such tubular bags are common as refills for cosmetics.

Dieses Problem des Innendruckes der auf den Verschluss wirken kann während des Transportes bzw. Handlings tritt nicht auf, wenn der Behälter aus Folienmaterial noch vollständig geschlossen ist und man auf diesen geschlossenen Behälter eine Verschlussvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art anbringt. Solche Verschlüsse, die beispielsweise aus der WO 2004/000667, WO 2004/083055, der EP 1533240, der EP 1795456 oder der CH 695019 bekannt sind, weisen einen zylindrischen Durchstosser auf, der in axialer Richtung beidseitig offen ist und der über mindestens einen Mitnehmer an der Kappe beim Abschrauben der Kappe axial gegenläufig sich nach unten bewegt und dabei die Folie des Beutels innerhalb des Bereiches des Ausgusses aufschneidet.

Schwenkschnappscharnier can act. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a closure device which is operable after the first opening and thus the opening of the tubular bag both as Schwenkscharnierverschluss as well as, if the tubular bag should be transported again after the initial opening, as a screw cap actuated in a secured position can be brought.

Die zweitgenannte Aufgabe und weitere Aufgaben lösen Verschliessvorrichtungen mit den Merkmalen der abhängigen Patentansprüche. The first object solves a closure device with the features of claim 1. The second object and other objects solve closure devices with the features of the dependent claims.
In der einzigen Figur ist ein diametraler Vertikalschnitt durch eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform des Erfindungsgegenstandes dargestellt, und anhand der nachfolgenden Beschreibung erläutert.
Die erfindungsgemässe Verschlussvorrichtung ist insgesamt mit 1 bezeichnet. Sie ist auf einer Folie eines geschlossenen, beutelartigen Behälters B angebracht. Die Anbringung erfolgt vorzugsweise mittels Ultraschallschweissung, kann aber auch mittels Kleben erfolgen. Die Verschlussvorrichtung 1 besteht aus einem Ausgussteil 2, einem zylindrischen Durchstosser 5, und als dritter Teil, einem Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20. In the single figure, a diametrical vertical section through a preferred embodiment of the subject invention is shown, and explained with reference to the following description. The closure device according to the invention is designated overall by 1. It is mounted on a film of a closed, bag-like container B. The attachment is preferably carried out by means of ultrasonic welding, but can also be done by gluing. The closure device 1 consists of a spout part 2, a cylindrical piercer 5, and as a third part, a pivoting hinge closure 20th
Der Ausgussteil 2 umfasst einen zylindrischen Ausguss 6 an dessen unterem Rand ein radial nach aussen gerichteter Flansch 3 angeformt ist. Der zylindrische Teil des Ausgussteiles 2 wird hier als Ausguss 6 bezeichnet und ist einstückig mit dem erwähnten Flansch 3 verbunden. Der Ausguss 6 weist ein Innengewinde 8 auf, in dem der noch zu beschreibende, zylindrische Durchstosser 5 bewegbar geführt ist. In der einfachsten Ausgestaltungsform ist die Aussenseite des Ausgusses 6 gewindefrei gestaltet. Lediglich im unteren Bereich, kurz oberhalb des Flansches 3 und in etwa parallel zu diesem verlaufend, ist ein umlaufender Rückhaltekragen 13 nach aussen gerichtet angeordnet. Das bereits erwähnte Innengewinde 8 des Ausgusses 6 weist eine rechtwinklig, trapezförmige Gestalt auf. Die geneigte Kante des Trapezes ist zum oberen Ende des Ausgusses 6 hin geneigt geformt, so dass der Durchstosser 5 bei der Montage nicht eingeschraubt, sondern ratschenartig eingestossen werden kann .
Der zylindrische Durchstosser, der im Wesentlichen die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannte Form aufweist, weist ein Aussengewinde 7 auf, welches mit dem Aussengewinde 8 des Ausgusses 6 zusammenpasst . Der Durchstosser 5 lässt sich somit im Ausguss 6 des Ausgussteiles 2 schraubenförmig nach unten bewegen. Der Durchstosser 6 mit seiner zylindrischen Wand 11 weist eine Unterkante auf, die insgesamt als Schneide gestaltet ist, und zumindest einen Schneidzahn 12 aufweist, der vor der Erstbetätigung der Verschlussvorrichtung 1 unmittelbar oberhalb der Folie des Behälters B liegt. Auf der Innenseite der zylindrischen Wand 11 des Durchstossers 5 ist ein Mitnehmer 10 angeformt. Dieser Mitnehmer 10 besteht aus einem länglichen, nach innen gerichteten Element. Auf dem Ausguss 6 bzw. auf den Ausgussteil 2 ist ein Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20 aufgesetzt. DieserThe spout part 2 comprises a cylindrical spout 6 at the lower edge of a radially outwardly directed flange 3 is formed. The cylindrical part of the spout part 2 is referred to here as a spout 6 and is integrally connected to the aforementioned flange 3. The spout 6 has an internal thread 8, in which the yet to be described, cylindrical piercing 5 is movably guided. In the simplest embodiment, the outside of the spout 6 is designed thread-free. Only in the lower region, just above the flange 3 and extending approximately parallel to this, a circumferential retaining collar 13 is arranged directed outwards. The already mentioned internal thread 8 of the spout 6 has a rectangular, trapezoidal shape. The inclined edge of the trapezoid is inclined towards the upper end of the spout 6, so that the piercer 5 can not be screwed during assembly but can be pushed in like a ratchet. The cylindrical piercer, which essentially has the shape known from the prior art, has an external thread 7, which mates with the external thread 8 of the spout 6. The piercer 5 can thus be moved helically downward in the spout 6 of the spout part 2. The piercer 6 with its cylindrical wall 11 has a lower edge, which is designed overall as a cutting edge, and has at least one cutting tooth 12, which lies directly above the film of the container B prior to the first actuation of the closure device 1. On the inside of the cylindrical wall 11 of the penetrator 5, a driver 10 is formed. This driver 10 consists of an elongated, inwardly directed element. On the spout 6 or on the spout part 2, a pivoting hinge closure 20 is placed. This
Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20 ist einstückig, weist aber einen Unterteil 21 und eine Kappe 24 auf, die miteinander über einer Schwenkverbindung 22, bevorzugterweise jedoch über ein Spannwandband 23 miteinander schwenkbeweglich verbunden sind . Pivot hinge closure 20 is in one piece, but has a lower part 21 and a cap 24, which are connected to each other via a pivotal connection 22, but preferably via a clamping wall belt 23 pivotally connected to each other.
Die Kappe 24 besitzt eine Deckfläche 26, an dessen unterer, nach innen gerichteten Seite ein Mitnehmer 9 angeformt ist. Dieser Mitnehmer 9 liegt praktisch über seiner gesamten, von oben nach unten gerichteten, Länge an einem entsprechenden Mitnehmer 10 des Durchstossers 5 an. Der
Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20 lässt sich relativ zum Ausgussteil 2 drehen. Hierbei verändert sich die axiale, relative Höhenlage, zumindest des Unterteiles 21, relativ zum Ausguss 6 nicht. Der Unterteil 21 besitzt Formschlussmittel 25, die mit entsprechenden Formschlussmitteln 13 am Ausguss 6 zusammenwirken. In der hier dargestellten Ausführungsform ist das Formschlussmittel am Ausguss 6 der bereits erwähnte Rückhaltekragen 13. Unter diesen Rückhaltekragen 13 greift eine umlaufende Haltewulst 25 am unteren Rand der Mantelwand des Unterteiles 21. Diese Haltewulst ist in der hier dargestellten Ausführungsform im Querschnitt als Nase gestaltet. Der Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20 lässt sich folglich auf den Ausguss 6 in der Montagemaschine einfach aufsetzen und gerade hinunter drücken, wobei in der Endposition die Haltewulst 25 den Rückhaltekragen 13 untergreift. Der Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20 lässt sich somit relativ zum Ausguss 6 verdrehen, ohne dass dabei der Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20 insgesamt seine Relativhöhe zum Ausguss 6 verändert. Bei dieser Drehbewegung wird, wenn diese in der entsprechenden Richtung erfolgt, der Durchstosser 5 durch die beiden miteinander in Eingriff stehenden Mitnehmern 9 und 10 in eine entsprechende Drehbewegung versetzt. Hierbei schraubt sich der Durchstosser 5 abwärts und der Schneidezahn 12 durchstösst die Folie des an sich geschlossenen Behälters B und öffnet nun den Schlauchbeutel erstmalig. Der Durchstosser 5 wird nun soweit abwärts geschraubt, bis dieser mittels entsprechenden Einrastmitteln, die hier nicht
dargestellt sind, zum Eingriff kommen, wobei in dieser Lage die beiden Mitnehmer 9 und 10 nicht mehr miteinander in Eingriff stehen. Bei einer umgekehrten Drehrichtung nach der Erstöffnung verbleibt somit der Durchstosser in seiner eingerasteten Endstellung stehen. The cap 24 has a cover surface 26, on whose lower, inwardly directed side a driver 9 is formed. This driver 9 is practically over its entire, directed from top to bottom, length to a corresponding driver 10 of the piercer 5 at. Of the Swiveling hinge closure 20 can be rotated relative to the pouring part 2. Here, the axial, relative altitude, at least the lower part 21, relative to the spout 6 does not change. The lower part 21 has positive locking means 25 which cooperate with corresponding positive locking means 13 on the spout 6. In the embodiment shown here, the positive locking means on the spout 6, the aforementioned retaining collar 13. Under these retaining collar 13 engages a circumferential retaining bead 25 at the bottom of the jacket wall of the lower part 21. This retaining bead is designed in the embodiment shown here in cross section as a nose. The swivel hinge closure 20 can consequently be simply placed on the spout 6 in the assembly machine and pressed straight down, wherein in the end position the retaining bead 25 engages under the retaining collar 13. The swiveling hinge closure 20 can thus be rotated relative to the spout 6, without the swiveling hinge closure 20 altogether changing its relative height to the spout 6. During this rotational movement, if this takes place in the corresponding direction, the piercing element 5 is set into a corresponding rotational movement by the two mutually engaging drivers 9 and 10. Here, the piercer 5 screws down and the incisor 12 pierces the film of the self-contained container B and now opens the tubular bag for the first time. The piercer 5 is now screwed down as far as this by means of corresponding latching means, not here are shown, come into engagement, in which position the two drivers 9 and 10 are no longer engaged. In a reverse direction of rotation after the initial opening thus remains the piercer in its locked end position stand.
Die eigentliche Kappe 24 des Schwenkscharnierverschlusses 20 und der Unterteil 21 des Schwenkscharnierverschlusses sind einerseits über die Schwenkverbindung 22 und/oder dem Spannband 23 bereits gegen eine Relativverdrehnung dieser beiden Teile gesichert. Da das Drehmoment zwischen der Kappe 24 und dem Unterteil 21 relativ gross sein kann, falls der Benutzer lediglich die Drehbewegung nur über die Kappe 24 einleitet, kann es sinnvoll sein, am unteren Rand der Mantelwand der Kappe 24 nach unten gerichtete Laschen 14 anzuformen, die in entsprechenden Ausnehmungen 27 in der Mantelwand des Unterteiles 21 eingreifen. Diese Laschen 14 können gleichzeitig ein Garantieelement bilden, welches nach der entsprechenden Drehbewegung abgerissen werden kann. Statt einer Lasche sind selbstverständlich auch mehrere solcher Laschen 14 denkbar, die in entsprechenden Ausnehmungen 27 eingreifen können. Die Laschen 14 können auch zusammenhängend an einem Garantieband angeordnet sein. In einer hier besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform kann der Ausguss 6 auf seiner Aussenseite ein Aussengewinde 30 aufweisen, welches lediglich im Bereich der Kappe 24
vorhanden ist. Die Kappe 24 besitzt ihrerseits ein Innengewinde 28, das mit dem Aussengewinde 30 am Ausguss 6 zusammenwirkt . Wird nun bei der Erstbetätigung wiederum der Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20 gedreht, so verändert sich die Relativhöhe des Unterteiles 21 zum Ausguss 6 nicht, während gleichzeitig jedoch die Kappe 24 eine relativ geringe Aufwärtsbewegung durchführt. Hiermit verändert sich die Relativhöhe zwischen der Kappe 24 und dem Unterteil 21. Gleichzeitig wird hierbei das Spannband 23 gespannt. Das Spannband 23 verändert nun den reinenThe actual cap 24 of the pivoting hinge closure 20 and the lower part 21 of the pivoting hinge closure are already secured on the one hand via the pivot connection 22 and / or the clamping band 23 against a relative distortion of these two parts. Since the torque between the cap 24 and the lower part 21 may be relatively large, if the user initiates only the rotational movement only via the cap 24, it may be useful to form at the bottom of the jacket wall of the cap 24 downwardly directed tabs 14 which engage in corresponding recesses 27 in the shell wall of the lower part 21. These tabs 14 can simultaneously form a guarantee element, which can be demolished after the corresponding rotational movement. Of course, instead of a tab, a plurality of such tabs 14 are also conceivable, which can engage in corresponding recesses 27. The tabs 14 may also be arranged contiguously on a guarantee strip. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the spout 6 may have on its outer side an external thread 30, which only in the region of the cap 24th is available. The cap 24 in turn has an internal thread 28 which cooperates with the external thread 30 on the spout 6. If, in turn, the pivoting hinge closure 20 is rotated during the first actuation, then the relative height of the lower part 21 to the spout 6 does not change, while at the same time, however, the cap 24 performs a relatively small upward movement. This changes the relative height between the cap 24 and the lower part 21. At the same time the tension band 23 is tensioned. The strap 23 now changes the pure
Schwenkscharnierverschluss 20 in einSwivel hinge lock 20 in one
Schnappscharnierverschluss . Da in dieser Position nach der Erstöffnung der Durchstosser 5 in einer Tiefposition ist, ist nun die offene Weite der Verschlussvorrichtung entsprechend der offenen Weite des Ausgusses 6, um die Wandung des zuvor in diesem Bereich vorhandenen Durchstossers 5 vergrössert. Hierdurch, und dank der Relativverschiebung der Kappe 24 nach oben, ist nun die Kappe 24 auch als reine Schnappscharnierkappe betätigbar, ohne dass dabei der Mitnehmer 9, der fest an der Deckfläche 26 der Kappe 24 angeformt ist, die Schwenkbewegung hindert. Im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichen Verschlussvorrichtungen dieser Art lässt sich die gesamte Verschlussvorrichtung auch niedriger gestalten. Dies insbesondere deshalb, da die Kappe nicht mehr
zwangsläufig jedes mal vollständig auf- und abgeschraubt werden muss. Snap hinge closure. Since in this position, after the first opening, the piercer 5 is in a low position, the open width of the closing device corresponding to the open width of the spout 6 is now increased by the wall of the piercer 5 previously present in this area. As a result, and thanks to the relative displacement of the cap 24 upwards, the cap 24 is now also operable as a pure Schnappscharnierkappe, without causing the driver 9, which is integrally formed on the top surface 26 of the cap 24, prevents the pivoting movement. In contrast to conventional closure devices of this type, the entire closure device can also be made lower. This particular because the cap is not anymore inevitably every time completely screwed on and off.
Nach der erstmaligen Öffnung wird man nun die Kappe 24 lediglich noch schwenkbeweglich betätigen. Es ist jedoch möglich, falls man den Behälter im angebrochenen Zustand wiederum verschliessen will, und beispielsweise diesen in einem Rucksack mitführen will, so ist es möglich die eigentliche Schwenkkappe 24 durch eine entsprechende Drehbewegung wieder aufzuschrauben. Nun funktioniert die Kappe 24 praktisch wieder als einfache Schraubkappe. Will man aus dem Behälter etwas trinken, so muss man wiederum erst die Schraubbewegung durchführen, um die Kappe 24 relativ zum Unterteil 21 zu verschieben, wobei wiederum das Spannband 23 gespannt wird und nun die Kappe 24 wiederum als Schwenkkappe eines Schnappscharnierverschlusses wirkt. After the first opening, the cap 24 will now only be actuated in a pivoting manner. However, it is possible, if you want to close the container in the opened state in turn, and wants to carry this example in a backpack, so it is possible to screw the actual pivot cap 24 by a corresponding rotational movement again. Now the cap 24 practically works again as a simple screw cap. If you want to drink something from the container, so you have to turn the screw movement to move the cap 24 relative to the lower part 21, in turn, the tension band 23 is tensioned and now the cap 24 in turn acts as a pivot cap a Schnappscharnierverschlusses.
Selbstverständlich ist die Lösung mit einem Filmscharnier als Schwenkverbindung 22 nicht kombinierbar mit einer Lösung be ' der Unterteil 21 und Kappe 24 relativ zueinander, mittels erwähnten Gewinden 28 und 30, verschoben werden sollen.
Of course, the solution with a film hinge as a pivotal connection 22 can not be combined with a solution be ' the lower part 21 and cap 24 relative to each other, by means of said threads 28 and 30, to be moved.
