Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2253554A1] The device (1) has a part i.e. closing cap (10), rotating with respect to another part i.e. container (2), around a longitudinal axis. The cap has a flexible tab (16) formed in a thickness of tubular skirt (14) of the cap. The container has a relief (8). The tab and the relief are arranged to cooperate with each other so that rotation of the cap relative to the container causes the tab to cross the relief by bending with a flexion component parallel to the axis. The tab crosses the relief to produce a tactile sensation to be felt by a user.
