Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0761560A1] The container (1), e.g. of plastic, is closed by a rectangular seal cap (4) with large (5) and small (6) corners projecting from the container's neck (2), the small corners being folded over and attached to the neck by thermal welding. The cap is thermally welded to the top of the container by a head with two projecting lugs which fold over and seal the small corners of the cap. The working faces of the two lugs are inclined at an angle of 45 degrees, and their lower edges lie parallel to the cap sealing face.
