CAP FOR GLASS BOTTLES

Abstract

The invention relates to a cap for glass bottles comprising a body with skirting with at least three cuts made from the outside to the inside of the body, wherein a core is provided with at least three reinforcement ribs and a first concave region or area that coincides with a second concave region or area is provided on the inside of the body, creating a chamber; and wherein said second concave region is integrated into a second body attached to the first body and wherein said second body comprises a flange having a plurality of cuts, whereas in the lower part thereof, said second body has a threaded area in which a plurality of lips are defined and in which reinforcement spokes are provided contiguously.

Claims

1. A cap for glass bottles, characterized in that it comprises: a) a first body in turn comprising: a. a skirting with at least three cuts made from the outside of the skirting to the inside of the body; and b. a core with at least three reinforcement ribs; b) a second body integrally attached to the first body and in turn comprising: a. a flange incorporating a plurality of cuts around the periphery; b. a threaded region in the lower part of the second body in turn comprising: i. a plurality of lips; and c. a plurality of reinforcement spokes contiguous to the threaded region; wherein a first concave region or area that coincides with a second concave region or area integrated into the second body is provided on the inside of the body and coinciding with the position of the core; and wherein both concave areas are opposite one another, such that they define a chamber or space therebetween configured for the tilting of the cap during the deformation thereof in the process of opening it.

2. The cap according to claim 1, wherein the body has a plurality of grooves along its skirting.

3. The cap according to claim 1, wherein the second body incorporates a series of inner ribbing or reinforcements.

4. The cap according to claim 1, wherein the body and the second body are integrated into a single body.

DETAILED DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

[0024] The attached drawings show a preferred embodiment of the invention. More specifically, the cap for glass bottles comprises a body (1) with skirting (2) with at least three cuts (3) made from the outside of the skirting (2) to the inside of the body (1) in which a core (4) is provided and to which pressure is applied for opening the cap herein described.

[0025] At least three reinforcements (5) in the form of ribs are reinforcing the core, the function of which is to provide greater robustness to the assembly and prevent excessive deformation of the body (1) since said reinforcements (5) do not deform during opening.

[0026] A first concave region (4a) that coincides with a second concave region (6a) arranged in the opposite position and which is an integral part of a second body (6) integrally attached to the first body (1), is provided on the inside of the body (1) and coinciding with the position of the core (4).

[0027] Both concave regions (4a, 6a) opposite one another create a chamber or space that allows the tilting of the cap during the deformation thereof when opening it, in addition to providing certain safety to the cap itself since the pressure to be applied on the core (4) of the first body (1) while opening is homogenized, regardless of the internal pressure withstood by the cap.

[0028] The second body (6) comprises a flange (7) around the periphery configured, on one hand, for fitting onto the outer surface of the rim of the bottle, and on the other, onto the skirting (2) of the body (1), creating the mentioned second concave region (6a) in the central part therein.

[0029] In turn, the entire periphery of said flange (7) incorporating a plurality of cuts (7a) which prevent resistance when opening, and accordingly making opening easier.

[0030] The second body (6) also comprises in the lower part thereof a threaded area (8) in turn defining a plurality of lips (8a) improving grip on the neck of the bottle and providing the sealing required for properly preserving the liquid contained in the bottle and its properties.

[0031] Finally, contiguous to said threaded area (8) there is provided a plurality of spokes (9) in the form of reinforcement which help to improve the results with respect to internal pressure.

[0032] In a practical embodiment, the body (1) and the second body (6) are made forming a single body.

[0033] Likewise, in a particular embodiment of the present invention, the second body (6) may incorporate a series of inner ribbing or reinforcements making it easier to open cap herein proposed.

[0034] In a particular embodiment, the body (1) will have a series of grooves along the skirting (2) thereof making it easier to seal it during the industrial bottling process.
