Abstract (en)

[origin: WO02074633A2] A plastic lid (10) is disclosed for a container having double locking flanges (18, 20) around its upper peripheral edge for locking engagement with the lid. The lid has central portion (14) and peripheral annular skirt (16). The skirt has a peripheral groove (30) dividing the skirt into an upper portion (32) and a lower tear-off strip portion (34). The upper portion has intermittent locking flange segments (36) for engaging the container locking flanges (18). The tear-off strip portion (34) has a second locking flange (38) for engaging the other of the container locking flanges (20). Thin membrane windows (40) are formed in the skirt upper portion on either side of the intermittent locking flange segments (36) and bordering on the annular groove, so that the membrane windows form weakened notches upon removal of the tear-off strip. Indicator means (52, 54, 56, 58) on the outer surface of the upper portion (32) mark the location of the locking flange segments (36).
