Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0500265A1] With reference to Figures 3 to 8, a closure for a container is moulded from a suitable plastics material and comprises a cap with a top wall 1 and skirt 2. The lower edge of the skirt 2 is joined by a breakable web 3 to a tear-off band 4, and the band 4 is joined in turn by a similar web 5 to a captive band 6. The interior of the skirt 2 is formed with an interrupted bead defined by two internal circumferentially spaced shoulders 7 (Figure 3) with a gap 8 between them, a vestigial bead 9 and a substantial inwardly projecting lug 10. On the outside of the cap in alignment with the lug 10 is a finger tab 11 (Figure 4) to facilitate removal of the cap when it has first been turned to the right angular position on the neck of the associated container, with the lug 10 in a gap 12 in the bead 13 (Figures 7 and 8) on the reck of the container. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
