Cap device for mouthpiece of container and methods of sealing mouthpiece portion of container and opening the same
First Claim
1. A cap device to be mounted to a mouthpiece of a container, comprising:
- a connecting portion to be connected to the mouthpiece of the container, said connecting portion being provided with an inner hollow portion;
a coupling projecting portion formed integrally with said connecting portion and adapted to be connected to an external connection line, said coupling projecting portion being provided with an axial through hole in communication with the inner hollow portion of said connecting portion; and
a movable valve means disposed in said axial through hole to be axially movable,said movable valve means having a first seal member for sealing one end of the axial through hole of said coupling projecting portion, a second seal member for sealing the other end of the axial through hole and a coil spring disposed between said first and second seal members for outwardly urging said first and second seal members, wherein the first seal member and the second seal member are movable in an inward direction of the axial through hole, respectively, when the first seal member and the second seal member receive an external force larger than a force of the coil spring, respectively.

Abstract
A cap device to be mounted to a mouthpiece of a container, in one aspect, comprises a cap member provided with an inner hollow portion and a film member accommodated in the inner hollow portion. The film member has a laminated structure composed of at least one metal including layer and a fusing layer abutting against an open end face of the mouthpiece mounted to the container. The cap device mounted to the mouthpiece is sealed by heating the film member by the high frequency induction heating treatment to fuse the fusing layer at the open end face of the mouthpiece. After the sealing, the cap device is removed and a connector means is connected to the mouthpiece and a pressure is applied to break the film member to establish the communication between an interior of the container and a connection line. In another aspect, a cap device comprises a connecting portion connected to the mouthpiece having an inner hollow portion and a coupling projecting portion having an inner through hole in which a movable valve member is disposed to be axially slidable. The interiors of the container, the connecting portion, the projecting portion and the outer connection line are communicated with each other through the movement of the movable valve member.
