BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1) Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to an improved bottle or container cap made to have less air and pressure indicator with pressure relief system, and provide more tighter seals in a bottle or container cap arrangement.

2) Description of Related Art

Many types of caps are available to be use with bottles and container. Most of the bottle caps are simple plastic caps or made of metal having threads that goes on to the bottle. Bottles are usually have cap with one rubber or other source of sealing arrangement. Which seal top of the bottle, where bottle have contact with seal. Seal is press by cap, toward the bottle. The area of seal is very limited due to only top outer circle area of the bottle are having contact with seal, also bottle contain pills sensitive to moisture will have drying substance in a paper or plastic package with the pill which is not a safe way to put these two item together because in the event of swallowing the drying substance could put people in danger, good example of these are one of medicine bottle in the market today. Bottle with carbonated beverages also needs tighter seal to keep the freshness of the drink.

U.S. Pat. No. 4,540,102 issue to waiter wiedmer had good idea about FIG. 1 cap portion 2 having an axially extending portion 4 which enters and engages the inner area of the container's mouth portion. Deficiency here is that seal would be too tight when there is pressure in container, pressure press portion 4's bottom area to put pressure inside of cap to press portion 4 toward inner area of container's mouth where cap screw on. Also cap's inner are fixed for one purpose.

U.S. Pat. No. 4,712,699 issued to Michael Luts has inner rib or valve 20 generally cylindrical and extends downwardly from the upper wall 16 of the cap closure. Deficiency here is cap is fixed for one purpose, not a changeable system also cap would be too tight to open when pressure built inside of container like above patent.

U.S. Pat. No. 5,853,096 issued to Maya H. Bartur had real simple spring in a cap seal system FIG. 1a, FIG. 1b, FIG. 1c, that even with slight twist in cap would loose gas in traditional cola cap seal arrangement, but Maya H. Bartur's cap seal still provide sealing due to springs flexibility.

Deficiency here is that cap seal system does not remove air in a bottle or limit space so that substance have less space of moving around. Also not changeable with other seal arrangement.

SUMMARY OF INVENTION

The present invention cap having attachable threaded cylindrical element to provide more sealing area with pressure release hole and pressure indicator, net container or extension to solve the problems mention before and more. By having cylinder shape elements extended into the bottle will remove access air and provide more seal contact area, plus different types of attachment to provide different needs. First medicine pill bottle that has drying substance put with pills can be fixed by bottle cap with net cylinder attached to a cap and put drying substance inside. This results, no accidental swallowing of the substance will happen. Second bottle with carbonated beverages will have lot more seal area due to cylinder element will go inside of the bottle to provide more contact seal area. Since tighter seal, less carbonated gas will be lost and freshness will last longer. Third bottle cap has pressure indicator inside the cylinder device with crease on them to inform the user to use caution when they are pressurized by substance inside the bottle or container.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFER EMBODIMENT

The drawing of FIG. 1 shows traditional bottle 13 and cap 11 with liquid substance 15 inside the bottle 13. It shows how much of air 14 can be mix with substance 15 in the bottle. FIG. 2 shows bottle cap 21 with cylinder shape element 22 which reduce most of air 24 since cylinder element 22 take space of where air 24 used to occupy. Also FIG. 3 shows bottle cap 21 with longer cylinder element 32 which eliminate air in the bottle 33 to have even longer life of the substance 35 present in the bottle. FIG. 4 has cylinder element 42 which is in net configuration to hold in substance to keep bottle 43 dry in order to keep the pill 45 fresh. FIG. 5 shows cylinder elements parts 1-8 which can be attach to be extend or shorten, depending on the purpose of use and shows cap 21 with thread cylindrical element base 51a is attachable to cylinder element 52, 42, to become net container cap embodiment 500. On cylinder 52 having a seal element 52a goes around edge of cylinder 52 and extend out to cover the top edge circle of bottle or container's. FIG. 6 shows bottle cap 61 with pressure relief hole 61a on top of the cap 61 and bottom half of cylinder element has crease 64 on also shows air chamber 64a of cylinder element. When pressure build up inside the bottle 63 cylinder element with crease 64 will fold up in a upward position to relieve pressure and gives more room to expand without bulging the bottle or leaking out of the seal. When pressure falls cylinder element with crease 64 will Unfold. FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 showing normal setting and pressurized setting with indicator 72 inside of cap 61. FIG. 8 clearly shows bottle 63 has been pressurized by the indicator 72 which warns the user, in order to take caution when pressure built inside of bottle 63, pressure push creased cylinder 64 upward toward pressure release hole 61a by releasing air inside of air chamber 64a and showing pressure indicator 72 through air release hole 61a. FIG. 9 shows three dimensional view of cap 61 with cylinder element 65 which has accordion shape creases on them also cap 61 having threaded cylindrical element with hollow tunnel 61b which is attachable and detachable with other cylinders. FIG. 10 shows traditional bottle with cap arrangement, which shows lots of air space 106 with very little sealing area 63c. FIG. 11 with new cap device 61 eliminates lots of air 106 by taking space inside of bottle 113 and with more angled seal area 112 with pressure relief hole 61a and pressure indicator 72. FIG. 12 shows some of the examples of cylinder element 1,5,9, with extension 2,6,10, can be put together to produce needed product of the user. FIG. 13 shows cylinder 130 with two side screw in type 130a where two different types of caps can be use. It could have cap embodiment 500 and cap embodiment 300 on other side to become bottle or container. Cap 11 can be use with either cap embodiment 300,500 or two of same cap could be use. Although the invention has been described and illustrated in detail, it is to be clearly understood that the same is by way of illustration and example, and is not to be taken by way of limitation. The spirit and scope of the present invention are to be limited only by the terms of the appended claims.
