Plastic Element For A Bottle In Particular A Cosmetic Bottle

Abstract

A closure element contains a cap element for closing a bottle. The cap element has a first bottleneck section that is configured for attachment to a bottleneck of the bottle. In addition, at least one adapter is provided for placement between the cap element and the bottle. The adapter has a second bottleneck connection, which is similar to the first bottleneck connection, and a bottleneck piece onto which the cap element can be placed with its first bottleneck connection. The bottleneck connections are preferably configured as snap closures. Due to the two-part construction of the closure element with the cap element and the adapter a multitude of variants is made possible for the closure element in an inexpensive manner.

1 . A plastic closure element for a bottle, the plastic closure element comprising: 
 a cap element for closing the bottle, said cap element having a first bottleneck connection for placement on a bottleneck of the bottle; and    at least one adapter disposed between said cap element and the bottle, said adapter having a second bottleneck connection being similar to said first bottleneck connection and a bottleneck piece connected to said second bottleneck connection, said cap element disposed with said first bottleneck connection onto said bottleneck piece.    
     
     
         2 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , wherein said first bottleneck connection of said cap element is inserted into said bottleneck piece such that said second bottleneck connection of said adapter is flush in its connection to said first bottleneck connection.  
     
     
         3 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , wherein said adapter has a peripheral outer jacket and said second bottleneck piece protrudes upward above said peripheral outer jacket toward said cap element.  
     
     
         4 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , wherein: 
 said adapter further has a peripheral outer jacket and an intermediate plate extending outward from said peripheral outer jacket; and    said second bottleneck connection and said bottleneck piece are disposed in a central area of said adapter and extend outward in opposite directions.    
     
     
         5 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 4 , wherein said intermediate plate rises toward said cap element.  
     
     
         6 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , wherein said second bottleneck connection and said bottleneck piece form a cylindrical apron with an upper apron part and a lower apron part having different inside diameters.  
     
     
         7 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , wherein said adapter has an outer jacket with an embossing.  
     
     
         8 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , wherein said cap element and said adapter each have a peripheral outer jacket which are flush with one another.  
     
     
         9 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , further comprising a closure cover with a hinge, said closure cover pivotably moveably attached via said hinge to said cap element.  
     
     
         10 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , wherein said first and second bottleneck connections are snap closures.  
     
     
         11 . The plastic closure element according to  claim 1 , wherein said adaptor is configured for a cosmetic bottle.  
     
     
         12 . An adapter for a cap element to form a closure element, the cap element having a first bottleneck connection for placement on a bottleneck of the bottle, the adapter comprising: 
 a second bottleneck connection being similar to the first bottleneck connection of the cap element; and    a bottleneck piece connected to said second bottleneck connection, the cap element with the first bottleneck connection being placed into said bottleneck piece.    
     
     
         13 . An assortment of closure elements, comprising: 
 a plurality of differently configured cap element types, said cap element types each have a first bottleneck connection configured for attachment to a bottleneck of a bottle; and    at least one adapter type fitting said cap element types, said adapter having a second bottleneck connection being similar to said first bottleneck connection, and a bottleneck piece connected to said second bottleneck connection, and said cap element types being attachable with said first bottleneck connection onto said bottleneck piece.
