Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a closure device for bottles, in particular a closure device for bottles of the type provided with anti-tamper means able to give an immediate visual indication to the user of whether the bottle has or has not been opened at least once .
  • the present invention refers to a closure device for bottles of the type provided with anti-tamper means that are arranged in an inaccessible position when the stopper has been assembled, thus not being visible to the user.
  • closing devices for bottles, in particular for bottles containing alcoholic beverages or spirits, are known. These closing devices generally consist of a stopper and a pourer.
  • the stopper is usually equipped with an internal thread adapted for engaging, to open or close the bottle, with a corresponding thread provided on the outer surface of the pourer.
  • the latter is fixed by pressure, or through other known means, outside or inside the mouth of the bottle.
  • a jacket for covering the stopper, made with an aluminium film or plastic, can also be provided.
  • the elements of the stopper that act as anti- tamper means are normally obtained inside the stopper itself, such elements are per se accessible from inside the closure device even when such a closure device is assembled on the bottle. Being accessible, it is not consequently possible to rule out tampering with these elements, for example by acting with scissors or similar objects.
  • Tampering with anti-tamper means is not always noticeable once the closure device has been assembled on the bottle. Obviously, by tampering with the closure device to remove its anti-tamper means, the visual function of first opening is not obtained, even if from the outside the closure device applied onto the bottle seems perfectly intact, even if only apparently.
  • the purpose of the present invention is therefore to make a closure device for bottles, in particular a closure device for bottles of the type provided with anti-tamper means able to give an immediate visual indication to the user of whether the bottle has or has not been opened at least once, which is able to solve the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art in an extremely simple, cost-effective and particularly functional manner.
  • a purpose of the present invention is to make a closure device for bottles that provides an alternative solution, with respect to those known today, to clearly show whether a bottle has been opened at least once after its original packaging.
  • Another purpose of the present invention is to make a closure device for bottles provided with anti-tamper means that are not accessible either from the inside, or from the outside when the closure device is assembled on the bottle.
  • closure device for bottles in particular a closure device for bottles of the type provided with anti-tamper means able to give an immediate visual indication to the user of whether the bottle has or has not been opened at least once, as outlined in claim 1.
  • figure 1 is an exploded view of the main components of the closure device for bottles according to the present invention
  • figure 2 is a view of the closure device of figure 1, shown in assembled configuration on a bottle and prior to its first opening;
  • figure 3 is a section view obtained along the line III-III of figure 2;
  • figure 4 is a view of the closure device of figure 1, shown in assembled configuration on a bottle and after its first opening;
  • figure 5 is a section view obtained along the line

  • figure 9 is a section view obtained along the line
  • figure 10 is a section view obtained along the line
  • the closure device 10 comprises a stopper group 12 and 14, capable of being set in rotation by the user to open and close the closure device 10 itself.
  • the closure device 10 also comprises a pourer 16 constrainable at the mouth of a bottle 50.
  • the pourer 16 can be constrained both outside and inside the mouth of the bottle 50. In the embodiment shown in the figures, the pourer 16 is fitted outside the mouth of the bottle 50.
  • the pourer 16 can be manufactured in a single piece, typically made of plastic material or metallic foil, or it can consist of a plurality of distinct components but are mutually coupled.
  • the pourer 16 is in any case provided with an upper portion 18, in turn provided with an outer thread 20, and with a power portion 22, configured for the irreversible connection with the mouth of the bottle 50.
  • the outer thread 20 of the pourer 16 is configured to couple with a corresponding internal thread 24 provided in the stopper group 12 and 14.
  • the stopper group 12 and 14 is of the type comprising an inner stopper 12 of the cap-type, provided with the internal thread 24 and rotatably associated with the pourer 16, and an outer stopper 14 of the cap-type, fitted and associated with the inner stopper 12 so as to be constrained both by rotation and by pulling off with respect to such an inner stopper 12.
  • the closure device 10 also comprises anti-tamper means 26 and 28 integrated in the stopper group 12 and 14, in particular in the inner stopper 12, configured to make visually evident the occurred first opening of the closure device 10.
  • the anti-tamper means 26 and 28 are configured to limit the re-screwing stroke of the stopper group 12 and 14 on the pourer 16, thus exposing a part of the upper portion 18 of such a pourer to view, which, on the other hand, is hidden before the first opening of the closure device 10.
  • the anti-tamper means means
  • 26 and 28 comprise on one side a plurality of elastic lateral tabs 26 having an elongated shape, arranged circumferentially on the lower surface of the inner stopper 12, and on the other side an annular protrusion 28 arranged on the outer lateral surface of the pourer 16.
  • the annular protrusion 28 is provided with a curved lower profile 30, facing the lower portion 22 of the pourer 16, and with a flat upper profile 32, facing the upper portion 18 of such a pourer 16.
  • the elastic lateral tabs 26 are able to bypass, by moving upwards (i.e. moving away from the mouth of the bottle 50), the annular protrusion 28 due to its curved lower profile 30.
  • the elastic lateral tabs 26 stop, in their downward movement (i.e. approaching the mouth of the bottle 50), on the annular protrusion 28, due to its flat upper profile 32, thus limiting the re-screwing stroke of the stopper group 12 and 14 on the pourer 16. This latter configuration is shown in figures 4 and 5.
  • the closure device 10 is provided with a cylindrical jacket 34 that at least partially covers the pourer 16.
  • This cylindrical jacket 34 in the assembled configuration of the closure device 10, is made integral both with the pourer 16, through nonremovable mutual engagement means 38 and 40, and with the outer stopper 14, through at least one circumferential breakage line 36.
  • the occurred first opening of the closure device 10 is therefore made immediately evident by a shift of the stopper group 12 and 14 with respect to the cylindrical jacket 34, as shown for example in figure 4.
  • the first opening of the closure device 10 indeed also results in the detachment (movement away) of the stopper group 12 and 14 with respect to the cylindrical jacket 34, obtainable through the breaking of the circumferential line 36.
  • the non-removable mutual engagement means 38 and 40 between the cylindrical jacket 34 and the pourer 16 can consist of at least one annular rib 38, formed on the inner surface of such a cylindrical jacket 34, and of at least one corresponding annular groove 40, formed on the outer surface of the lower portion 22 of the pourer 16.
  • the circumferential breakage line 36 can consist of a plurality of frangible bridges. Alternatively, the circumferential breakage line 36 can consist of a reduced-section material portion.
  • Each elastic lateral tab 26 is deformable in the radial direction inside a respective through-hole 44 having circumferential development, formed on the lower surface of the inner stopper 12.
  • Each elastic lateral tab 26 can also be provided, at the free end thereof, i.e. the end engaging with the annular protrusion 28, with at least one tooth 42 having radial development ( figure 6 ) .
  • each tooth 42 having radial development is configured to increase the engagement surface of the respective elastic lateral tab 26 with the flat upper profile 32 of the annular protrusion 28, preventing the elastic deformation of the tab 26 itself.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de fermeture (10) pour une bouteille comprenant un organe verseur (16) et un bouchon en forme de coiffe (12, 14) associé à rotation à l'organe verseur. Des moyens anti-effraction sont intégrés dans l'ensemble bouchon de façon à produire une indication visible de l'ouverture initiale de celui-ci. Ces moyens comprennent plusieurs pattes latérales élastiques (26) de forme allongée le long d'une surface inférieure du bouchon, et une saillie annulaire (28) sur une surface latérale extérieure de l'organe verseur. La saillie (28) présente un profil inférieur incurvé, orienté en direction d'une partie inférieure de l'organe verseur, et un profil supérieur plat, orienté en direction d'une partie supérieure de l'organe verseur. Lors de la première ouverture du dispositif de fermeture, lesdites pattes (26) peuvent passer par-dessus la saillie, tandis que lors d'une fermeture ultérieure lesdites pattes (26) s'arrêtent sur la saillie annulaire, du fait du profil supérieur plat de la saillie annulaire, ceci limitant une course de revissage du bouchon sur l'organe verseur.
