Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0555624A1] A closure consists of a basic body (1) and a pivotable cap (2). The cap (2) is connected to the basic body (1) via film hinges (3, 4) lying in one axis. Provided between the cap (2) and the basic body (1) is a U-shaped bar (7) which is connected to the cap (2) via a film hinge (6) and to the basic body (1) via a further film hinge (5). The axes of the film hinges (3, 4, 5, 6) are arranged in the corners of a triangle whose tip points upwards when the cap (2) is open. Provided in the basic body (1) is a recess (9) in which the bar (7) is received in the closed position of the cap (2) and is therefore protected. <IMAGE>
