Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004078612A1] The invention relates to a tamper evident closure for a bottle, particularly a bottle suitable for containing valuable drinks, having a neck (5, 34, 54) which extends axially along the longitudinal axis (X-X) from the body of the bottle (2, 31, 51), the neck (5, 34, 54) has an opening (7, 33, 56) at its free end and the closure comprises means of a threaded connection to a pouring device (6, 38, 55), the pouring device (6, 38, 55) is connected to a sleeve (17, 47, 65) arranged axially along the outer surface of said neck (5, 34, 54) having the characteristic of comprising annular means ( 18, 45, 70) arranged between the base of said neck (5, 34, 54) and the lower end of the sleeve (17A, 47B, 65B) and being connected by means of breakable connecting means (46, 64, 82) to said sleeve (17, 47, 65), the annular means (18, 45, 70) and said lower end (17A, 47B, 65B) of said sleeve (17, 47, 65) having respective surfaces (11A, 18E, 47C, 45I, 65C, 70D) facing towards each other and at least one of said facing surfaces ( 11A, 18E; 47C, 45I; 65C, 70D) of said annular means (18, 45, 70) and of said lower end (17A, 47B, 65B) being inclined relative to the longitudinal axis (X-X) of the neck (5, 34, 54), so that as a result of an axial movement of said annular means (18, 45, 70) towards said opening in said neck (5, 34, 54), breakage of said breakable means (46, 64, 82) occurs and consequent radial movement of at least one circumferential zone of said annular means (18, 45, 70).
