Benefits of technology

The present invention provides an improved lift lever crown cap system that has all the benefits of prior art closure systems without their disadvantages. The system includes a bottle with a lift lever, a crown cap, and a post. The crown cap is sealed to the bottle and has a curved tongue that bends or hinges to open the bottle. The system is made of non-corrosive materials such as glass or plastic. The invention is easy to manufacture, market, and is durable and reliable. The technical effects of the invention include improved security, ease of use, and increased strength of the bottle.

Problems solved by technology

While these devices fulfill their respective, particular objectives and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not describe a lift lever crown cap system that allows for forming a pour through top opening in a crown cap crimped onto a bottle, such forming of an opening being done in a safe, ecological, convenient and economical manner.

Abstract

A crown cap is couplable to a container. The crown cap has a central region and a downwardly extending side wall. At least one score line is in a geometric configuration on the central region of the crown cap. The at least one score line forms a tongue. The tongue is adapted to be bent or hinged downwardly. In this manner a passageway is provided for a liquid. A lever is coupled to the crown cap. A post extends through the lift lever and the central region of the crown cap. A tamper-evident secure band is designed into the side wall of the crown cap. A non-corrosive material is used to form the crown cap, lever and attachment post.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a lift lever crown cap system and method and more particularly pertains to forming a pour through top opening in a crown cap crimped onto a bottle, such forming of an opening being done in a safe, ecological, convenient and economical manner.[0003]2. Description of the Prior Art[0004]The use of closure systems of known designs and configurations is known in the prior art. More specifically, closure systems of known designs and configurations previously devised and utilized for the purpose of closing containers through known methods and apparatuses are known to consist basically of familiar, expected, and obvious structural configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which has been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.[0005]By way of example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,109,465 issued Aug. 29, 2000 to Henning relates to ...
