Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0056295A1] To guard against unauthorised removal of a valved closure from a pressure vessel, such as keg or cask for beverages, the closure comprises an externally screw-threaded neck (12), to be welded to the tap-hole in the vessel, a valve-body (10) inserted coaxially in the neck, the neck and body having lugs (11, 15) engageable by axial displacement and turning of the valve body, a screw collar (16) carried by the valve body and screwed on to the neck, a check ring (17), preventing withdrawal of the valve body from the collar, and a split locking ring (19) laterally insertable in a groove (12c) in the neck to hold the collar and thereby the valve body against axial displacement for disengagement of the lugs.
