Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0755872A1] The distribution cap (3) which equips a liquid container (21) comprises a body (32,35,37) with a distribution orifice (4) and a cover (5). The cover is provided with a hollow toothed plug (6) which blocks the orifice during storage. The hollow tooth is formed by a skirt (7) inside which are located means capable of retaining, by capillary action, the product occupying the inside of the tooth. The retaining means comprise a capillary tube whose internal diameter is such that the space between the tube and the skirt and the space inside the tube are capable of retaining the product in the hollow tooth. There are several capillary fins located so that the space formed between them and the skirt is capable of retaining the product in the tooth. The capillary tube has a height (H) equal to that of the skirt (h).
