Testing the mechanical reliability of plastic bottles for drinking beverages
Original language description
In cooperation with industry, testing was conducted to determine the reliability (i.e. applicability in regular use by people) of "sports caps" on plastic bottles. These bottles are popular all over the world and comply with health standards. They are designed to contain various types of popular beverages. The maximum overpressures for situations of liquid leakages were measured (i.e. volumes of carbonated or uncarbonated beverages, sealing, stress analyses etc.). For the laboratory testing at the VŠB-Technical University of Ostrava, a custom-made hydraulic/pneumatic system was built, based on a PR 15 sensor with accessories (Hyrotechnik Lumburg Multisystem 5050 measurement system, Orlík 1500 W compressor, tubes, etc.). The experiments were statistically evaluated (in the form of histograms) and the sealing reliability of the bottle + "sports cap" closure system was assessed. The presented results are important for future numerical modelling, design improvements and other investigations. Stresses and their variabilities were calculated according to Laplace's theory of thin shells.
