Sealing mechanism for a cylindrical container opening using a cap having a cap body and an upper lid
Patent number: 8757410Abstract: A sealing mechanism for a container opening having a cylindrical opening disposed on a container body and a cap for sealing the cylindrical opening. The cap includes a screw-on cap body and an upper lid for sealing the cylindrical opening. The cap body and the upper lid are independent of each other so that the cap body can be rotated without rotating the upper lid and are engaged by a concave/convex portion. When the cap body is moved away from the container, the cap body slidably abuts on the upper lid, and pushes up the upper lid to open the cylindrical opening, and when the cap body moves toward the container, the cap abuts on the upper lid and pulls down the upper lid to re-seal the cylindrical opening.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2006Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: Hosokawa Yoko Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroaki Takashima, Yuichiro Moriyama, Susumu Niwa, Kazuhiro Umenaka -
