Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2216632A1] A compression failure resistant tamper evident bottle cap includes a skirt (14) with a lower edge, and a tamper-evident band (24) formed integrally with the skirt and having structure for engaging beneath a retaining flange (30) on the bottle so as to prevent subsequent withdrawal of the band. Frangible bridges (26) connect the band to the lower edge of the skirt. To prevent destruction of the bridges as the cap is forced onto the bottle during installation, the skirt has one or more tabs (32) or the like, extending downward over a portion of the band, for preventing undue diametral expansion of the tamper evident band as it passes over the retaining flange.
