Anti-filling anti-spill device for bottleneck, composite sealing cap including said device
Anti-filling device to be attached to the neck of a bottle to be closed by a sealing cap, including attachment means for attachment to the bottleneck, a chamber including a lower lip surrounding a lower orifice and confining a moveable part which forms a valve in conjunction with the lower lip, and an axial distribution duct. The device further includes a moveable axial rod, secured to the anti-filling device, the axial movement of which relative to the device is limited between a low position and a high position, and at least one stopper which is in engagement with the moveable axial rod such that, when the moveable axial rod is located in the low position, the stopper shuts an orifice which is arranged in the chamber. The low position is imposed by a projection attached to the cap, which comes into contact with the moveable axial rod when the cap is attached to the bottleneck.

Stopper capsules and method for production thereof
The screw capsule includes two parts, a) an insert with a so-called internal head and an internally-threaded skirt a metallic shell, including an external head and an external skirt, the capsule being typically provided with a sealing element, a tamper-protection element and a member for first opening, characterised in that the external skirt includes at least one piece, typically cylindrical, of height, diameter corresponding to the neck for sealing and at least one radially-expanded section, of height, within a circle of diameter D2>D1, such as to form an annular radial cavity. The above offers the advantage that the expanded section particularly facilitates the manipulation of the capsule (1) and the rotation thereof with relation to the neck for opening/closing the container by unscrewing/screwing up the capsule on the neck.
A closure, embodied to cooperate with a neck of a container, the neck, having a wide mouth on the upper part thereof, an external thread and a tapering piece on the lateral wall, for sealing the closure which includes a) an external body having an external head and skirt, b) an insert, enclosed within the body and fixed thereto, including an internal head and skirt, provided with an internal thread, for cooperation with the external thread of the neck and c) a sealing joint, forming an inset piece, fixed to the insert. The joint has a central piece and a border piece. The insert includes a radial compression element, for the sealing joint against the neck, such that when the bottle closure is screwed to the neck, the border is compressed radially between the insert and the neck.
The seal (1, 1',1''), which is made of a multilayered material (2), is used as a capsule for sealing a bottle of wine and comprises a layer C which can be subjected to resilient axial compression, and a layer B forming a barrier to oxygen. In said seal, layer B forms or comprises a deposit of organic material. The seal (1, 1', 1'') comprises a layer S forming a support for layer B, wherein said support S is or not in contact with layer C such that it is possible to have a structure comprising either a series of layers C, B and S, said structure being represented symbolically by C/ B/ S in the case of adjacent layers C, B and S, wherein layer S enters into contact with wine, or a series of layers C, S and B, said structure being represented symbolically by C/ S/ B in the case of adjacent layers C, S and B, wherein layer B enters into contact with wine. Advantages: possibility of forming screwed sealing capsules provided with a large variety of seals adapted to the specific requirements of each type of wine, in order to replace tradition corks.

METHOD FOR MAKING DECORATED BOTTLE CAPS WITH IMPROVED MECHANICAL STRENGTH AND DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTING SAID METHOD
The invention concerns a method comprising: a) providing sheet or format metal; b) swaging said metal by means of a swaging lubricant, so as to form a swaged blank (1); c) degreasing said swaged blank (1), so as to typically remove the remains of the swaging lubricant, to form a degreased blank (2) capable of being lacquer coated; d) lacquer coating said degreased blank (2), said resulting lacquer coated blank (3) being then optionally decorated; e) an optional finishing step. The method is characterized in that during the degreasing at step c), said swaged blank (1) is subjected to an energetic radiation emission treatment of selected intensity and duration to eliminate or decompose said remains of lubricant, said treatment being wholly carried out at a metal temperature less than 150 ·C, and for a duration typically less than 1 second, so as to obtain, following said treatment, a surface tension not less than 34 dynes/cm. The invention also concerns a device for implementing said method. The invention provides the advantage that the low temperature degreasing preserves the mechanical properties of the metal of the swaged blank (1).
The screw capsule comprises two parts, a) an insert (3) with a so-called internal head (30) and an internally-threaded skirt (31) and b) a metallic shell (4), comprising an external head (40) and an external skirt (41), said capsule being typically provided with a sealing means (5), a tamper-protection means (6) and a means for first opening (7), characterised in that said external skirt (41) comprises at least one piece (42), typically cylindrical, of height (H1), diameter (D1) corresponding to the neck (2) for sealing and at least one radially-expanded section (43), of height (H2), within a circle of diameter D2>D1, such as to form an annular radial cavity (48). The above offers the advantage that the expanded section (43) particularly facilitates the manipulation of said capsule (1) and the rotation thereof with relation to the neck (2) for opening/closing said container by unscrewing/screwing up said capsule (1) on said neck (2).
