Closure cap for mounting on a liquid container

Abstract

A closure cap for mounting on a liquid container includes a preferably reclosable pouring opening and a receiving element which, with the closure cap, forms a common receiving volume for receiving at least one dispensing body, e.g. a tablet. The closure cap can be opened to create an access to the receiving volume and to be able to introduce the at least one dispensing body into the receiving volume or remove it from the latter, wherein the receiving element is permeable to a liquid in order to allow the dispensing body received therein to come into contact with the liquid. The access can be closed in a leaktight manner or opened by a closure element, which is connected to the closure cap and is movable by pivoting or sliding.

         31 : A closure cap ( 7 ), preferably a screw cap, for mounting on a liquid container, preferably a bottle ( 5 ), more preferably a PET bottle, wherein the closure cap ( 7 ) comprises a spout opening ( 9 ), preferably a reclosable spout opening ( 9 ), and a receiving element ( 1 ), which together with the closure cap ( 7 ) forms a common receiving volume ( 20 ) for receiving at least one dispensing body ( 2 ), preferably at least one tablet, and the closure cap ( 7 ) can be opened, thus forming an entrance ( 12 ) to the receiving volume ( 20 ) in order to enable the introduction of the at least one dispensing body ( 2 ) into the receiving volume ( 20 ) or the removal of said body from the receiving volume ( 20 ), wherein the receiving element ( 1 ) is permeable to a liquid ( 37 ) in order to allow the at least one dispensing body ( 2 ) to come into contact with the liquid ( 37 ), wherein a closure element ( 42 ) connected to the closure cap ( 7 ) is provided, by means of which the entrance ( 12 ) can be sealed in a liquid-tight manner or released, wherein the closure element ( 42 ) is formed as a slide, which is displaceable along the jacket surface of the closure cap ( 7 ). 
     
     
         32 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the receiving element ( 1 ) is arranged as a flat surface. 
     
     
         33 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the closure cap ( 7 ) comprises a retention element ( 41 ) which is arranged between the receiving element ( 1 ) and the spout opening ( 9 ), wherein the retention element ( 41 ) is permeable to the liquid ( 37 ) in order to prevent the dispensing body ( 2 ) from reaching the spout opening ( 9 ). 
     
     
         34 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the receiving element ( 1 ) is made of plastic. 
     
     
         35 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the receiving volume ( 20 ) has the shape of a cylinder at least in sections. 
     
     
         36 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the receiving element ( 1 ) comprises through-openings ( 15 ) which are preferably formed in the form of a grid or lattice. 
     
     
         37 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the retention element ( 41 ) comprises through-openings ( 15 ) which are preferably formed in the form of a grid or lattice. 
     
     
         38 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the receiving element ( 1 ) is entirely arranged in a volume formed by the closure cap ( 7 ). 
     
     
         39 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the receiving element ( 1 ) is detachably fastened in the closure cap ( 7 ). 
     
     
         40 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 33 , wherein the retention element ( 41 ) is detachably fastened in the closure cap ( 7 ). 
     
     
         41 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein a circular boundary element ( 16 ) which protrudes in the direction of the spout opening is arranged on the receiving element ( 1 ) in order to prevent lateral slippage of the dispensing body ( 2 ) in the operating state. 
     
     
         42 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the closure cap ( 7 ) comprises an extractable storage element for the dispensing body ( 2 ), which storage element corresponds to the entrance ( 12 ) and the receiving volume ( 20 ) and which is introduced into the receiving volume ( 20 ) through the entrance ( 12 ) and can be positioned on the receiving element ( 1 ). 
     
     
         43 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , wherein the slide is displaceable in relation to the closure cap ( 7 ) by using a profile rail ( 44 ). 
     
     
         44 : The closure cap ( 7 ) according to  claim 31 , comprising at least one dispensing body ( 2 ).
