Abstract
Closing device for a container, in particular a drinking glass, having a lid (2) adapted for pivoting about a pivotal axle (13), a fastening arrangement (3) for securing the pivotal axle (13) relative to the container, and a connector (4) connected to the lid (2) and the pivotal axle (13). The connector (4) is displaceable with respect to the pivotal axle (13), thereby permitting adjustment of the spacing between the pivotal axle (13) and the lid (2) in the direction of the connector (4).
Claims15
A closing device for a container comprising,
- a lid connected to a pivotal axle, and
- a fastening arrangement for securing the pivotal axle to the container comprising a projecting arm connected to the pivotal axle, and a retaining device configured for removable attachment to an upper rim of the container and including a free leg, with said projecting arm being mounted for sliding displacement along said free leg, and with the retaining device further including a coiled clamp having two parallel clamping legs that can be clamped to a wall of the container.
A closing device for a container comprising
- a lid connected to a pivotal axle, and
- a fastening arrangement for securing the pivotal axle to the container and comprising a projecting arm connected to the pivotal axle, and a retaining device configured for removable attachment to an upper rim of the container and including a free leg, with said projecting arm being mounted for sliding displacement along said free leg, and
- wherein the projecting arm comprises a holding means surrounding at least in part the free leg and is supported for displacement along the free leg.
A closing device for a container comprising
- a lid connected to a pivotal axle, and
- a fastening arrangement for securing the pivotal axle to the container and comprising a projecting arm connected to the pivotal axle, and a retaining device configured for removable attachment to an upper rim of the container and including a free leg, with said projecting arm being mounted for sliding displacement along said free leg, and
- wherein during use, the free leg is oriented along a direction having a vertical component, and so that during its displacement the projecting arm performs a movement which includes a vertical component and so that the lid height is adjustable.
A closing device for a container comprising
- a lid connected to a pivotal axle, and
- a fastening arrangement for securing the pivotal axle to the container and comprising a projecting arm connected to the pivotal axle, and a retaining device configured for removable attachment to an upper rim of the container and including a free leg, with said projecting arm being mounted for sliding displacement along said free leg, and
- wherein the free leg is arcuately curved, so that during its displacement the projecting arm performs a rotation relative to the inclination of the lid.
A closing device for a container comprising
- a lid connected to a pivotal axle, and
- a fastening arrangement for securing the pivotal axle to the container and comprising a projecting arm connected to the pivotal axle, and a retaining device configured for removable attachment to an upper rim of the container and including a free leg, with said projecting arm being mounted for sliding displacement along said free leg, and
- wherein the lid comprises on its underside concentric annular grooves, with which the lid can be positioned on the upper rim of differently sized containers.
A closing device for a container comprising,
- a lid,
- a connector connected to the lid and having a length direction extending radially outwardly from the lid,
- a pivotal axle, and
- a fastening arrangement for securing the pivotal axle to the connector so that the connector is displaceable with respect to the pivotal axle in the length direction of the connector, thereby permitting adjustment of the spacing between the pivotal axle and the lid in the length direction of the connector.
