Description

Lids for beverage cans

purpose of invention

According to the description unfolded in the specification, the present invention relates to a lid for a beverage can, which enables the consumer to obtain optimum hygienic conditions when drinking the beverage product and thus ensures that the surfaces in contact with the consumer are protected at all times from The impact of the external environment, thus providing users with a hygienic guarantee, which allows consumers to drink directly from beverage cans without any worries and risks.

Furthermore, the invention enables the user to visually detect whether the packaging has been manipulated or falsified again and whether this results in a loss of hygiene assurance.

Background technique

Currently, some beverage cans are provided with a protective cap connected to a corresponding upper base at which opening means for the protective cap are provided. All of this is to keep a canister clean and hygienic, with a dedicated opening area for drinking or pouring beverages later.

For example, utility model patent No. 9502598 is a protective and hygienic lid for beverage cans, which basically consists of a cylindrical hollow body shaped like a shallow saucepan, and its side walls have "U" shaped extensions , as a continuation of the sidewall. The aforementioned extension is part of the easily detachable lid of the jar.

Another similar cover is described in No. 200101910 utility model.

On the other hand, there are applications for the registration of lids for beverage bottles provided with safety sealing parts, the sealing parts being connected by fitting some snap-off accessories on the main body of the lid, said lid having a basic shape like a pan , the form of this sealing part allows us to visually see whether the packaging has been passive.

Contents of the invention

The present invention provides a lid for beverage cans, in order to achieve the object of the invention, characterized in that it comprises a body formed essentially by two cylindrical hollow bodies in the shape of a pan having a certain height, the lower hollow body Correspondingly attached to the upper base of the can to protect the can, the upper hollow body is configured in the shape of an enclosure in which toy game parts or advertisements, such as chips or "puzzle pieces ( chaps)” and let the child use it like a toy. A can opening pull ring may be arranged on the upper base of the tank body.

It is also possible to stick some posters, decals, in any case, the relevant company considers suitable as a means of promotion and has the required dimensions to be accommodated in the space in the above mentioned upper part.

Generally, the size of the upper part is smaller than that of the lower part.

It is also to be noted that the upper portions may be off-centre, including also that some upper portions may have shapes other than circular.

The free edge of the lower part is adapted to be able to be provided with an inwardly directed annular projection in order to ensure that the lower part is fixed in place on the upper part of the tank.

The same edge of the lower part also includes a small outward flange for easy removal of the cover unit.

The upper base of the can is bounded by an outwardly projecting rim, below which there is an upwardly tapering sloping surface forming part of the outer peripheral wall of the can, terminating in an inner surface below the rim in the concave area.

In another embodiment of the cover, the annular projection is omitted and also comprises a sealing element characterized in that an annular body is joined to the free edge of the main body by means of snap-off appendages, The result is that the annular body has an inwardly projecting portion located deepest in the recessed area defined between the peripheral edge of the can and the upwardly tapering sloping surface. In this deepest part, too, the annular projection of the first embodiment can be fitted.

The setting of the small flange is to open the lid unit assembly conveniently in such a way that, including the sealing part, when the flange is pinched and pulled upwards, the lid body will be separated from the can, and at the same time, a snap-off accessory will be produced, leaving the connection with the can in place. Together with the seal, it will show that the tank has been tampered with.

The sealing part connected with the tank cannot be pulled out because its inner diameter is smaller than that of the rough edge.

In order to facilitate a better understanding of the present description and drawings, a part of the present description is listed below, which does not limit the description of the object of the invention.

Description of drawings

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a lid for a beverage can, which achieves the object of the present invention.

Accompanying drawing 2 is the partial view of the cover of invention.

Figure 3 is a partial view of another embodiment of the cover different from the above figures.

Detailed ways

With reference to the drawings and the numbering used therein, in a first embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings 1 and 2, the lid for a beverage can is defined by a hollow body 1 substantially comprising a relatively thin pan in the shape of a saucepan. A large lower part 2 and a hollow upper part 3 also in the shape of a pan extending from the base of the first lower part 2 .

Inwardly facing circumferential projections 4 protrude from the free edge of the lower part 2 in order to secure the fixing of the lid unit on the beverage can. On this free edge there is likewise a small flange 5 protruding outwards, which is used to pull the lid and separate it from the corresponding can body 6 .

Inside the inner hollow body defined by the upper part 3, toy (game) parts can be introduced. Furthermore, any information and/or promotional activities may be printed, embossed and/or pasted on the inner and/or outer surface of the flat outer portion of the base 7 of the upper part 3 .

Moreover, the annular surface 8 formed corresponding to the base of the lower part can also be used as the end surface of the same advertising display as the base 7 of the upper part 3 .

The upper base 9 of the tank body 6 can be provided with a can opening pull ring 10, the upper base 9 is bounded by a thick edge 11, and there is a concave channel 12 under the thick edge, and the channel 12 ends at the side wall of the tank body 6 The lower sloping surface 13 of , which tapers upwards until it terminates in a concave channel 12 , at which point the circumferential protrusion 4 of the corresponding cover is fixed.

Accompanying drawing 3 shows a second embodiment, the body 1 of the cap unit lacks the peripheral projection 4 used to secure the connection to the tank, but is provided in this position with a sealing member defined by a ring 14, which The sealing part is connected to the lower part 2 by means of some breakable small appendages 15, so that the torus 14 is configured as a revealing sealing part 14, in order to demonstrate whether the cover has been tampered with or counterfeited, if the cover unit has been touched , that is, when trying to open the above-mentioned cap, the small accessory 15 will be broken off, a detail that is easily visible because the sealing part is always connected to the corresponding can or bottle 6 .

In order to achieve this technical effect, the sealing member 14 is arranged as an inwardly protruding part positioned within the recessed channel 12 of the jar or bottle 6, so that the sealing member 14 is fastened on the jar 6 and cannot be pulled out or Removed due to its inner diameter being smaller than the diameter of the thick rim of the upper base 9 of the corresponding can or bottle 6 .
