The Flap Cap

[Category : - OTHER- Food- Appliances and houseware]
[Viewed 1431 times]

A bottle cap retaining device comprises a flap cap configured to retain a bottle cap to a bottle and includes a lever extending from a lateral side of the flap cap and a grip extending convexly from a crown of the flap cap to the brake configured to stop the angular movement of the lever against the bottle. The device also includes a bi-tether connected to the flap cap in two places. The device additionally includes an O-ring connected to the bi-tether in two places, the O-ring includes a boss and a skirt, the boss configured on a lateral portion of the O-ring to inhibit a torque of the O-ring and the skirt configured on a bottom portion of the O-ring to provide a frictional surface against the bottle. The flap cap also comprises teeth or helical threads configured to hold a bottle cap or act in its place.



As you may know we lack a way to recycle bottle caps (hundreds of billions of caps annually worldwide ) do to the loss in which they separate from the bottle cap through use. We have that solution, it’s  called Flap Cap (registered trademark as well as a fully granted utility patent ). Also there is an issue with the wildlife which choke on bottle caps as well as small children every year.Many animals, such as sea turtles, seabirds, and marine mammals have been known to ingest marine debris, which they mistake for food. This may lead to loss of nutrition, internal injury, intestinal blockage, starvation, and even death. One study found that 82 of 144 bird species examined contained small plastic debris in their stomachs, and in many species the incidence of ingestion exceeds 80% of the individuals.

The typical materials ( food grade ) used but are not limited to are :

TPE = ThermoPlastic Elastomer
TPU = Thermoplastic PolyUrethane, which is a type of ThermoPlastic Elastomer

Flap Cap what is a tethered bottle cap 
add on with an  O-ring that goes under the seat of the bottle cap under the treading with a bi-tether  connection to cap that goes over the cap itself and has a brake mechanism once bottle cap  is twisted off holds it back in place .Once you are finished with the drink , pull it from the top of the cap  has a duckbill for  easy removal and  can be reused multiple times. This product and replacement cap as well as stated in the
patent . This can made for any particular size or product so there is no limitations and on the material as well.
Key solutions :
1. Preventing from loss of twist cap.(no flat carbonated drinks)
2. Improved grip on manufacture twist cap.
3. Easy recycling due to non-loss of twist cap .
4. Locks in open position holding manufacture cap with patented mechanism.



There are other uses in which this resolves as well:

1.Prevents animals or children from picking up a loose cap and possibly choking on it.
2.Making a more focused driver while driving to not having to look for .
3. Can be opened with single hand.
4. Reuse of bottle , especially in third world countries.
5. Can color code for parties and holidays to identify each individual's drink.
6. Doesn't slip down when drinking from bottle or pouring.
7. Can be use for a cross promotional product on a beverage or just as a giveaway as a promotional product.( e.g. Stadium giveaways, concert promos, companies just wanting to promote and put the product on the top)
8. Put on /remove in seconds.
9. Can be an Antibacterial device not directly touching the manufacturer bottle cap.(ideal for workouts ,dirty jobs, children , military use field service)
10. Arthritis - softer touch adds torque , improves grip to opening bottle.

Together we can make a difference .
