  • a conventional container for use as e.g. a beverage container may contain various beverages like water, soft drinks, beer etc.
  • the conventional beverage container such as an aluminium can, often comprises a tab which is actuated to form an opening in a frangible portion. Once the frangible portion is opened the content of the container is exposed to air and the content may also by accident be spilled out with a lot of discomfort for the user of the container and the surroundings.
  • conventional containers are to be provided with different tamperproof and seal arrangements to guarantee the freshness of an unopened container.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,822,843 shows a bottle-shaped metal can with a can body, can bottom and a threaded neck portion for receiving a threaded closure to seal the contents in the container.
  • This bottle-shaped can will have the problems associated with the bottle-shape concerning the ability to stack cans for efficient transportation and storage.
  • WO9609968 discloses a can with a twist-on/twist-off resealable assembly for a can-end. The assembly is also provided with a tamper/pilferproof arrangement. WO9609968 does not show any guaranteed seals or the like.
  • EP1533240 There are also known tamperproof arrangements from document EP1533240.
  • the arrangements according to EP1533240 discloses a reclosable opening device including a tubular frame, a pierceable portion and cutting means.
  • EP1533240 provides very complicated and expensive arrangements as the arrangements contain many parts which have to be assembled at manufacturing.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a resealable container which may be used in conventional production routes.
  • a container comprising a can body having an open end and a closed end, an end closure and a removable cap.
  • the cap have a seal breaking portion.
  • the end closure is attached to the open end of the can body to form a closed compartment of the container.
  • the end closure has an opening duct extending towards the compartment and having a seal.
  • the cap is arranged in said opening duct such that the cap is contained within the boundaries formed by the can body and the end closure attached thereto and is movable to a position in which the seal breaking portion is brought into engagement with said seal for opening of the container.
  • the removable cap which is arranged in the end closure and the can body, will not protrude outside the boundaries of the container and will allow easy handling of the container according to the invention.
  • One advantage with the container according to the invention is that conventional production plants for beverage cans may be used for the production of the inventive container.
  • Another advantage is that containers according to the present invention may be stacked onto each other, which will increase the space which can be filled with containers during transportation and storage.
  • the seal breaking portion of the container is integrated in the removable cap and will be easy to manufacture and easy to handle by the end user. As the integrated seal breaking portion is simple, there are also environmental advantages with less waste of material and energy during the manufacturing.
  • the opening duct which extends towards the compartment will make the container very easy to stack compared to a convention bottle having a necked portion with a screw cap or the like.
  • the end closure on the container according to the invention will have a flat appearance similar to the bottom portion of the container, and therefore the ability to stack and handle the container are improved compared to conventional bottles.
  • the seal on the container is breakable upon movement of the cap such that the seal breaking portion is brought to engagement with said seal.
  • the cap which is inserted in the opening duct and is movable to a position in which the seal breaking portion is brought into engagement with the seal.
  • the container defined by the can body, end closure and cap is preferably made of aluminium. By using aluminium, a light-weight container is obtained and the particular advantages of the present invention are fulfilled.
  • the can body of the container is preferably cylindrical, which shape is beneficial for drawing of the material of the can body. Other shapes are also possible.
  • the seal is in a preferred embodiment formed integrated with the opening duct and may have a frangible portion in the seal. This frangible portion will make it easier and with less effort for the end user to open the container with the cap.
  • An annular portion at the end of the opening duct may enclose the frangible portion.
  • the annular portion may be arranged to cooperate with a chamfered portion on the cap when the cap has been moved to an end position.
  • a benefit with the arrangement of the chamfered portion of the cap and the annular portion of the opening duct is that the container may be resealed and the sealing is obtained by contact between the annular portion and the chamfered portion.
  • the seal breaking portion is in one embodiment arranged for point engagements on the seal. Thus, the forces needed for breaking the seal will be less than if the cap would engage the whole surface of the seal.
  • the means for actuating the cap may be in the form of a tab which is movable between a first position in which the tab is arranged parallel to the end closure and a second position in which the tab is arranged perpendicular to said end closure.
  • a benefit for this arrangement is that the tab is easy accessible for the user and with small effort the container may be opened.
  • Actuation of the cap means that the cap is turned in a first direction to break a seal and turned in a second direction to remove the cap from the container.
  • the cap may be provided with duct engaging means engaging corresponding cap engaging means of the opening duct. By the engaging means the cap is kept in place before breaking the seal and after the seal has been broken.
  • External threads on the cap may be arranged to be engaged with internal threads in the opening duct.
  • the threads provide the possibility of obtaining a downward movement giving the person opening the container enough force to break the seal.
  • Annular ribs may be arranged on the cap and on the opening duct. Such arrangement will give a stable snap lock function holding the cap in place.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a perspective view of a complete container with can body and removable cap.
