Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0236451A1] Screw caps with guarantee strips are known. Usually, such guarantee strips are torn off by means of a tab or the guarantee strip encompasses an edge on the container and all of the predetermined breaking point links are torn in their longitudinal direction when the cap is unscrewed. According to the invention, radially projecting parts are provided on the container or its pouring opening (2) in the form of positive closing means (11, 12) which engage in corresponding recesses (13, 15) of the guarantee strip on the screw cap and prevent mutual twisting. Twisting on the screw cap results in a shearing movement being exerted on the predetermined breaking links (6), which have little resistance against these forces.
