Can Company, St. Louis, Mo., a corporation of Missouri Filed June 27, 1960, Ser. No. 39,000 8 Claims. (Cl. 222-541) This invention relates to disposable cartridges containing caulking compound, or grease, for use in a dispensing gun. More specically the invention is limited to -a dispensing type of spout mounted in an end closure for the cartridge and means to provide an effective seal between the spout and the closure, and the closure and the container, which will eliminate the possibilities of seepage of oils and solvents at vthe joints between the spout and the end closure and from the spout itself during storage and during use, respectively. Such seepage can detract from the saleability of the product, and, of course, changes 'the original consistency of the contents charged into the cartridge. 'This application is a continuation-impart of my prior application Seri-al No. 593,788, led June 25, 1956, and now abandoned, which is in turn a continuation-inpart of my prior application Serial No. 521,602, filed July 12, 21955 and now abandoned.
According to this invention, the cartridge end closure is preferably made of metal, which can be spun Ionto the end of 1a paper container by the usual manufacturing methods, so as to form an effective seal. Since to forni the end closure and the spout in lone piece would require a relatively expensive metal drawing operation, lor operations, the spout and end closure 4are separate articles of manufacture. This follows general practice heretofore in the art, which practices incurred certain disdvantages since .it was necessary to seal the spout against leakage during shipment or storage of the cartridges. The prior art has made several `suggestions for the solution Iof the problem. Stoppers have been provided for the spouts; or the spouts and containers have been sold separately, and when so merchandised the hole for the spout has been sealed with tape. Stoppers, however, did not prevent leakage and the sale of the parts separated required a special type of gun to support the spout separately from the cartridge.
This invention contemplates a spout so constructed that it will snap into an aperture in the metal end closure in such `a way 'as to provide a joint between the two, which is highly effective as a seal. In addition, this mechanical connection between the spout and the end closure is arranged to provide a centrally apertured planar surface on the inside of the end closure so that a seal may be applied which has a frangible portion in alignment with the aperture on the inside planar sur-face of the end closure, and a sealing portion which extends outwardly `at least beyond the spout portion exposed on the inner surface of the end closure so as to adhere, -or be adhered, to the metal sur- [face on the inside of the end closure to close the yaperture through :the spout and the joint 'between the spout and the met-al end closure exposed to fthe contents in the cartridge. Of course, this seal, applied to the inside surface -of the metal end closure and exposed surfaces 'of the spout therein, may extend over the entire inner surface, but at least it is of sufficient size to cover the aforemen-- tioned joint.
Such =a seal has a two-fold purpose, 1t prevents leakage from the spout during storage and shipment, and leakage through the joint between the end closure and spout at the same time. When the cartridge is desired to be used, it is inserted in the gun and the seal broken with a pencil or other sharp instruments allow the con-tents to ow out of the spout. When so used, Ithe seal remains effective Ito prevent leakage at the joint between the spout and .the end closure even at high pressures.
It is an object of this invention to .provide a spout in an end closure fora caulking cartridge.
Another object of this invention is to provide a spout which can be easily vassembled within an apertured end closure for a caulking cartridge.
llt is still a further object of the invention to provide a spout, which can be easily assembled with an aperture in a metal end closure of -a caulking cartridge with a sealing means at the outer ylim of the aperture in the end closure.
It is still a further object of this invention to provide a spout, which can be readily assembled in an aperture of an end closure for a caulking cartridge with a seal which is effective on the inside of the end closure and spout.
Further objects and advantages wiil appear in the following detailed description taken in conjunction wit-h the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a fragmentary view in elevation of the discharge end of a caulking cartridge with parts of the cartridge in section;
v FIG. 2 is a sectional elevation of the spout shown in FIG. 1;
FG. 3 is a top plan view of the sealing member shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a side elevation yof the `sealing member shown in FIG. 3;
FG. 5 is a sectional view taken on the line Ses 4of FIG. 1 showing the joint between the spout and the `container on an enlarged scale;
FIG. 6 is a sectional view corresponding to FIG. 5, but illustrating a slightly modified form of connection between the spout and the end closure;
FIG. 7 is a top plan view of the end closure shown in FIG. 6 with the spout removed;
FIG. 8 is -a side elevation in section of the end closure shown in FIG. 7 taleen on the line 8-8 thereof;
FIG. 9 is a View similar to FlG. 5 taken at the same location showing another slightly modified founof the connection between the end closure and the spout on an enlarged scale;
FIG. 10 is a :top plan view of the end closure shown in section in FIG. 9; and
FIG. l1 is a vertical section taken on the line 11-11 of FIG, 10.
Turning now to FIG. 1, the container for the caulking cartridge is indicated as 1, and sin-ce this invention is primarily concerned with only the dispensing end of the cartridge, the description and illustrations in the drawings are limited to a disclosure of the construction of this end only. Spun onto the end of the container 1 is an end closure part 2, ywhich may be for-med of metal.y During the spinning operation, a roll edge 3 is formed compressing the open edge of the container lbody 1 between an inner Iflange 4 and an outer rolled vedge 5. Formed centrally of the end closure part 2 is an aperture for receiving the spout. This .aperture is defined by the rolled edge 7. inwardly of the rolled edge is a socket having an offset ange 8 substantially parallel to the end wal-l 2 -of the end closure. This socket is surrounded by an axially extending wall 9.
The spout part, which its into the aperture in the end wall 2, is shown ygener-ally in FIG. 2 as a tubular body 10. The spout end of the tubular body is preferably cut on the bias, as shown at 11, .and the inner end of the spout is provided with a convex ange or rib 12 andA a radially extending flange 13. Between the rib or flange 12 and the flange 13 on the exterior lof the spout 10 is a liet 15. The spout is preferably made lof some rubber-like material, such as polyethylene, so that the rib 12 is compressible. This facilitates the assembly of the end closure part 2 and the spout part 10. 'Iihe assembly Patented June 11, 1963- is then a simple matter of snapping the rib 12 past the rolled edge 7, and since the rib 12 is flexible in the sense that it is compressible, this operation can be very simple and rapid. It should not be overlooked that the metal in the rolled edge 7 is also slightly flexible, which itself facilitates assembly. Turning now to FIG. 5, it will be at once apparent that there is a snug fit between the rolled edge 7 and the fillet 15, which Iwill form an outer seal between the spout 10 ,and the end closure 2. In order to enhance the effectiveness of this seal, the formed radius on the rolled edge 7 may be made larger than the radius of the llet 15, so that there is a wedging action between the rolled edge Iand the rib 12 on one side and flange 13 on the other. In any event, the edge of the lip 7 is pressed against the rib 12 at one side thereof, and since the spout is constructed of a rubber-like material there will be continuous pressure exerted between the rib 12 and the lip 7, which will form an effective seal at the exterior Iof the closure 2.
When the spout is so assembled with the closure 2, the inside surface 17 of the flange 13 forms a continuation of the inner surface of the closure part from the edge of the opening 19 in the spout outwardly to the wall of the container. Over these surfaces is suitably affixed a frangible seal strip 20, such as shown in FIG. 3. The diameter of the seal 20 is not critical, so long as it is large enough to cover the joint 18 and extend outwardly thereof on the inner surface of the metal closure 2. If desired, it can extend to or into rolled edge 3. Seal 20 is formed of superimposed strips lof foil, designated 25, which is a metal foil, and a strip of plastic material, such as 26. The metal foil is preferably .0007 of an inch in thickness approximately, and the thickness of the plastic strip 26 may be 1 or 2 mils. One strip is bonded to 'the other, and both are preferably heat sealed to the end closure as shown in FIG. 5.
The embodiment of the invention, shown in FIG. 6, is very similar to that above described, and this description will be conned to point out the differences. In FIG. 6, the spout 10 is of the same construction as that heretofore described, and similar parts thereof will be indicated by like reference characters. FIGS. 7 and 8 show an end closure part 30 before it is applied to a container body end. T-he periphery of the end closure part 30 has a flange 34, a bead 3-3 and an edge 35, which is subsequently crimped into firm engagement with the container body. A central aperture in the end closure 30 is surrounded by a rectilinear lip, or flange, 37. Inw-ardly of the lip 37 is an offset flan-ge 38 formed by yangularly related walls 38 and 39 which form the socket for the flange portion 13 of the spout part 10. The spout part is assembled within the end closure 30 in the same manner as described for the previous embodiment, and when so assembled the lip 37 distorts the shape of the fillet 15 in the plastic, or rubber-like, material of the spout part 10, so `as to form :an effective seal at the outer edge of the lip and the adjacent portion of the cylindrical external rib or flange 12 on 'the spout part 10. This forms the outer seal between the end closure 30 and the spout part 10. The inner seal is formed by a frangible sealing strip 25, 26 as heretofore described.
Referring now to FIGS. 9, l0 and ll, in this modication the spout is constructed exactly as above described, and the sole difference between this embodiment and the previous two, is the shape of the lip at the edge of the end closure surrounding the aperture therein. For this reason, the same reference characters will be used to indicate the same parts of the spout, and the description will be confined to the differences in the end closure part which affect the differences in the external seal between the edge of the aperture in the end closure and the spout, or the rib on the spout. In FIG. 1=1, the end closure -40 is provided with the flange 44 inside of the bead 43, which has an outer edge 45, which can be crimped into engagement with the open end of the container. A central aperture in the end closure 40 is surrounded by tapered lip 47, and the adjoining offset flange 48 and wall 49 form the cavity, or socket, for reception of the ange 13 on the spout part 10. Assembly of the spout 1i) in the end closure 40 is performed in the same manner as above described, the spout being forced into the aperture until the rib 12 passes the tapered edge 47. The edge 47 then engages in the fillet 15 in such a manner as to distort its shape, so that the inside corner of the lip 47 is tightly pressed into the rubber-like material of the spout `10. The length of the tapered lip 47 is subject to variation `with respect to the width of the fillet 15. If so desired, the length of the lip 47 may be so chosen as to bring both the inside and outside edges of the metal at the end of the lip into line contact with lthe rubber-like material adjacent the rib 12, and in the side of the rib 12 in the same manner as shown and heretofore described ywith respect to FIG. 6. Thus, the outer seal between the spout part 10 and the end closure part 40 is effected adjacent the edges of tbe lips 47 surrounding the aperture in the end closure, the same as heretofore described with respect to FIG. 6. The inner seal is effected by the sealing disk 25, 26 over the inner side of the spout which covers the joint 18 between the spout part and the end closure part. Only the minimum size of the disk or strip is critical to this invention. So long as it is large enough to cover the joint it will act as a seal for the inside joint between spout part 10 and closure part 40. All modifications contemplate a sealing disk at least this big. The sealing disk or strip may extend out to the periphery of the end closure part or alternatively into the rolled edge between the end closure part and the end of the container in which case it need not be heat sealed to the end closure part but only to the flange 13 of 4the spout part.
Changes in and modications of the construction de scribed may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention or sacrificing its advantages.
