Container lid having a pressure equalizing device
The invention relates to a lid ( 100 ) of a container, especially a beverage can, comprising a substantially flat lid surface ( 101 ) and a preferably folded edge area ( 102 ), and at least one pouring opening ( 103 ) arranged on the lid surface ( 101 ), which pouring opening can be closed in a gas-tight and/or fluid-tight manner by way of at least one closure element ( 120 ) arranged in the region of the underside of the lid surface ( 101 ) facing the interior of the container, with the closure element ( 120 ) being movable from a closed position to an open position by an actuating element ( 110 ), and at least one pressure equalizing device is provided which cooperates with the at least one actuating element ( 110 ), wherein the at least one pressure equalizing device comprises at least one closing element ( 112, 113 ), and at least one pressure equalizing opening ( 123 ) is provided which is closeable by means of the at least one closing element ( 112, 113, 114 ) when the actuating element ( 110 ) is in the closed position and can be exposed entirely upon moving the actuating element ( 110 ) from the closed position to the open position, with the exposure of the pressure equalizing opening ( 123 ) being reversible.
1. A lid of a container comprising a substantially flat lid surface and a folded edge area, and at least one pouring opening arranged on the lid surface, which pouring opening can be closed in a gas-tight and/or fluid-tight manner by way of at least one closure element arranged in the region of an underside of the lid surface facing an interior of the container, with the closure element being movable from a closed position to an open position by an actuating element, and including at least one pressure equalizing device which cooperates with the at least one actuating element, wherein the at least one pressure equalizing device comprises at least one closing element, and including at least one pressure equalizing opening which is closeable by means of the at least one closing element when the actuating element is in the closed position and can be exposed entirely upon moving the actuating element from the closed position to the open position, with exposure of the pressure equalizing opening being reversible, wherein the at least one actuating element is twistable relative to the lid surface, wherein the actuating element is twistable along a helix element, with the at least one pressure equalizing opening being arranged in the helix element.
2. A lid of a container comprising a substantially flat lid surface and a folded edge area, and at least one pouring opening arranged on the lid surface, which pouring opening can be closed in a gas-tight and/or fluid-tight manner by way of at least one closure element arranged in the region of an underside of the lid surface facing an interior of the container, with the closure element being movable from a closed position to an open position by an actuating element, and including at least one pressure equalizing device which cooperates with the at least one actuating element, wherein the at least one pressure equalizing device comprises at least one closing element, and including at least one pressure equalizing opening which is closeable by means of the at least one closing element when the actuating element is in the closed position and can be exposed entirely upon moving the actuating element from the closed position to the open position, with exposure of the pressure equalizing opening being reversible, wherein the fixing of the actuating element occurs by way of a fixing element with a handle which is swivellable from a plane arranged substantially parallel to the lid surface, with the fixing element being connected in an articulated and non-detachable way with the actuating element, wherein prior to the first pivoting for exposing the actuating element, the handle is in connection by way of at least one predetermined breaking point with at least one connecting element arranged on the lid surface.
3. The lid according to claim 2 , wherein the closing element for the pressure equalizing opening is arranged on the fixing element.
4. A lid of a container comprising a substantially flat lid surface and a folded edge area, and at least one pouring opening arranged on the lid surface, which pouring opening can be closed in a gas-tight and/or fluid-tight manner by way of at least one closure element arranged in the region of an underside of the lid surface facing an interior of the container, with the closure element being movable from a closed position to an open position by an actuating element, and including at least one pressure equalizing device which cooperates with the at least one actuating element, wherein the at least one pressure equalizing device comprises at least one closing element, and including at least one pressure equalizing opening which is closeable by means of the at least one closing element when the actuating element is in the closed position and can be exposed entirely upon moving the actuating element from the closed position to the open position, with exposure of the pressure equalizing opening being reversible, wherein the fixing of the actuating element occurs by way of a fixing element with a handle which is swivellable from a plane arranged substantially parallel to the lid surface, with the fixing element being connected in an articulated and non-detachable way with the actuating element, wherein the handle is arranged in a Y-shaped or T-shaped manner.
