Abstract (en)

An easy-to-open cap for containers and with retention of the cover, once opened, comprising a base ring (12) and a cover (14) between which a hinge arrangement (18) is provided, which allows a stable and articulated connection between the base ring (12) and the cover (14) of the cap, an internal wall of the cover providing a threading complementary to a threading formed on a mouth of a container, wherein said hinge arrangement (18) allows the cover (14) to be brought from its closed position, aligned and integral with the base ring (12), to an open position rotated with respect to the base ring (12), said base ring (12) providing a circumferential notch (24) which extends along the whole external surface of the cap except for the area in which said hinge arrangement (18) is formed which allows at least a partial removal between the cover (14) and the base ring (12) once interposed frangible bridges (31) have been broken, opposite ends (25) of an area of the cover (14) in which the hinge arrangement (18) is formed being connected to said base ring (12) by a respective string extension (26) which ensures that the cover (14), even once unscrewed from a container mouth (13), always remains attached to it.
