Skirt Made Of Separate Strip Bent Into Cylinder Patents (Class 215/323)
  • Patent number: 9382047
    Abstract: A multipart cover made of paper material and including a one-piece base body having a cover plate and a circumferential cover collar extending from the cover plate. The cover collar, when placed onto a container to be closed, extends upwards away from the container, and a reinforcement ring connected to the cover collar by means of a peripheral skirt. The reinforcement ring in a region below the cover plate, on a side of the cover plate opposite to the cover collar, includes a peripheral skirt forming a circumferential step along the periphery on a radially interior side of the reinforcement ring, or includes a circumferential bead along the periphery.

  • Patent number: 8833590
    Abstract: A metallic container closure including a shell of a thin metal sheet having a circular top panel wall (7) and a skirt wall (9), and a synthetic resin liner arranged in the shell, the skirt wall (9) having a thread-forming region and an annular groove (17) positioned at an upper end portion of the thread-forming region, wherein an internal pressure release line A extending in the circumferential direction is arranged in the skirt wall (9) at a portion over the annular groove (17), and annular bead (30) is arranged so as to pass through between the internal pressure release line A and the annular groove (17).

  • Patent number: 8167161
    Abstract: A metallic container closure comprising a shell of a thin metal sheet having a circular top panel wall 7 and a skirt wall 9, and a synthetic resin liner arranged in the shell, the skirt wall 9 having a thread-forming region and an annular groove 17 positioned at an upper end portion of the thread-forming region, wherein an internal pressure release line A extending in the circumferential direction is arranged in the skirt wall 9 at a portion over the annular groove 17, and annular bead 30 is arranged so as to pass through between the internal pressure release line A and the annular groove 17. The metallic container closure effectively releases the gas when the pressure in the container is elevated and effectively prevents the skirt wall from being deformed at a portion where the internal pressure release line A is formed when it is being wrap-seamed with the mouth-and-neck portion of the container.

  • Publication number: 20090139955
    Abstract: A container comprising a container body (1) with an opening (3) defining an axis (A) passing therethrough and a cap (2) having an upper portion (6) and a skirt portion (7) for closing the opening, the container body (1) having an outwardly projecting lip (4) around the opening (3), the cap having spaced apart inwardly projecting members (8) round an inner circumference of the skirt portion (7) and the lip (4) having recesses (5) in a lower part thereof for receiving the members (8) when the cap (2) is press fitted to the container (1), the cap (2) being arranged so that its circumference is distorted into a substantially polygonal shape as portions of the cap carrying the members (8) are flexed outwards when the cap (2) is pressed over the lip (4) until the members (8) snap fit into respective recesses (5) in the lip (4), the members (8) and recesses (5) being shaped such that subsequent rotation of the cap (2) relative to the container body (1) tightens the cap (2) against the lip (4).

  • Publication number: 20080110849
    Abstract: The invention relates to a combination of bottle and cap for dispensing a liquid. The bottle includes a narrow neck and a hollow handle. The hollow interior of the handle communicates at its upper and lower end with the interior of the body, to permit a flow of air through the neck opening, via the interior of the handle, to a lower region within the interior of the container so as to minimize glugging during pouring. The cap comprises a cap body attachable to the neck of the bottle. The cap includes on its crown first and second openings, for dispensing liquid and intake of air, respectively. The cap is configured to attach to the container body so as to position the second opening generally facing the handle, while the first opening is opposed to the handle.

  • Patent number: 6454118
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a pile-up lid each having an upper wall (1) and an element (2) arranged around the perimeter of said upper wall (1) and which forms a lip (3) protruding above said upper wall (1), and skirt (4) extending below said upper wall. The lid is made by a process of bringing together in a synchronous manner external sector elements (9) and internal sector element (10) in radially opposite directions so that, owing to the forced approach of the contact surfaces of the external and internal sector elements (9, 10) with said upper lip (3) of said lid interposed between them, a reeding pressure-moulding is obtained on both the inner and the outer surfaces of said upper lip (3), giving said lip (3) an outline apt to allow piling up on other similar lids.

  • Patent number: 6192569
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for manufacture of a top 1 intended to be attached on a container or a flexible tube 50 and comprising a neck 3 the opening 7 of which is connected by a tearable ring-shaped part 10 to a cover 20 serving as an impervious stopper prior to breaking of the ring-shaped part and then being able to serve for recapping. The cover 20 is extended by a plate 30 the periphery 31 of which has a common axis of symmetry with the tearable ring-shaped part 10 and is provided with at least three lugs 32. The skirt 40 is open at one end; its inner surface 46 is partially cylindrical, its section following the exact shape of the periphery 31, except for the lugs, of the plate 30, and is provided with at least three cavities 41 intended to accommodate said lugs. The skirt is drawn around the plate 30 to the point of immobilization, brought about by the insertion of the lugs 32 on the plate 30 into the cavities 41 of the skirt 40.
