Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0734954A2] A dispensing closure 1 has a cap part 3 and a spout part 5. The spout part 5 has an inlet 31 and an outlet 29. An angled passage 27 leads from the inlet to the outlet. The spout part 5 comprises a pivot member 33 having a surface 32 of convex curvature at which the inlet 31 terminates. First and second pivots 43, 45 are located at respective ends 47, 49 of the pivot member 33, on the axis of curvature. The cap part 3 has an internal surface of concave curvature complementary with the surface 32 of convex curvature of the first member. The concave surface 17 has an opening 19. At least one leg 37 of the angled passage 27 extends through the pivot member 33 from the inlet 31. The convex surface 32 of the pivot member 33 is rotatable in cooperation with the concave surface 17 of the cap part 3. When the spout part 5 is in a raised open position, the inlet 31 is aligned with the opening 19 of the cap part. <IMAGE>
