  • Publication number: 20080302755
    Abstract: A cap for the hygienic sealing of bottles for drinkable liquids, which in one embodiment includes a closed bottom cylindrical, i.e. cup-shaped, aluminum sleeve, an insert composed of a lower hollow cylindrical base, a truncated cone also having a hollow shape, and a tapered wall having two or more elongate and vertical apertures formed therein. Said cap is further characterized by a stretchable plastic membrane that is stretched to externally cover the truncated cone-shaped section of said insert as well as its top opening, by an elastic plastic ring for clamping said membrane against the insert, and by an additional plastic structure concentric with the sleeve that sealingly occupies at least its closed bottom and acts as a seal.

  • Patent number: 7398594
    Abstract: An apparatus for removing extensible plastic elastomer seals from openings of bottles or other glass containers is provided. Aerodynamic pressure drop in a compressed air jet is used. Due to constriction of the air stream caused, either by the incidence of the net on the edge of the openings of said bottles or containers, or by the presence of an appropriate convex surface before of the seal, the containers are removed.

  • Patent number: 7222470
    Abstract: Various processes and relevant devices for causing polymer films, which are extensible to adhere to the edges of openings of plastic or PET or even metal containers, by releasing electrostatic charges opposite in sign to those of containers and/or the polymer films to be applied thereto. The processes derive from a single general inventive concept.
