Abstract

A closure device for a container has a lid element for closing the container opening, a chamber which is arranged on the lid element for storing a medium, and an inner housing. The chamber and the inner housing have corresponding closure means and opening means. A discharge opening paired with the chamber can be released by moving the lid element relative to the inner housing such that a medium can exit the chamber into the container. The chamber and the inner housing each have a corresponding first thread which is formed relative to a winding rotational axis. The first thread which is located on the chamber is arranged so as to point radially outwards when seen from the thread rotational axis.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A closure device for a container with a container opening on an end face of the container, comprising:
a lid element for closure of the container opening;
a chamber on which the lid element is arranged; and
an inner housing;
wherein the chamber and the inner housing have corresponding closing means and opening means, which interact with one another so that a discharge opening within the chamber can be released by a movement of the lid element relative to the inner housing, so that a medium stored in the chamber can exit into the container, and wherein the chamber and the inner housing each have a corresponding first thread which is formed relative to a thread axis of rotation,
wherein the chamber has an opening with a collar-shaped edge region that extends radially outward from an edge of the opening,
wherein the lid element is welded on said edge region for closing the opening,
wherein the chamber is configured for storing a medium under pressure, and
wherein the edge region is supported on an end face of the container opening in a closed condition of the closure device.

2. The closure device according to claim 1 , wherein the lid element is an aluminium element which can be rolled onto the container for forming a second thread, wherein the second thread formed on the lid element corresponds to a second thread of the container.

3. The closure device according to claim 1 , wherein the inner housing on a side facing away from the first thread has a press seal for bearing against the container in a region of the container opening.

4. The closure device according to claim 1 , wherein the edge region of the chamber projects over an adjacently arranged edge region of the inner housing in a radial direction.

5. The closure device according to claim 1 , wherein the lid element is a plastic element which has a second thread corresponding to a second thread of the container.

6. The closure device according to claim 1 , wherein a film element is welded on the opening with the collar-shaped edge region, wherein the film element is connected to the lid element.

7. The closure device according to claim 1 , wherein the discharge opening is provided with the closing means which can be opened by the opening means arranged on the inner housing.

8. The closure device according to claim 1 , wherein the first thread is arranged on the chamber so that the first thread points radially outwards when viewed from a thread axis of rotation.

9. A container having a closure device according to claim 1 , wherein the container has a second thread in a region of the container opening, which is connected in a positively corresponding manner to a second thread of the lid element.
