Closure device

The present invention relates to a closure device (1) for a container (2) in which a flowable material (3) is stored, comprising a base element (4), which can be fastened on a container opening (5) of the container (2), a spout (11) with a dispensing opening (7), whereby the spout (11) is positioned inboard of the base element (4), and a lid (8) connected to the base element (4) by a hinge (12), whereby the lid (8) can be moved back and forth between a closed position (9) in which the lid (8) closes the dispensing opening (7) so that the spout (11) is not accessible and an open position (10) in which the spout (11) is accessible, tamper evidence indication means (13) for visually indicating if the lid (8) of the closure device (1) has once been moved out of its closed position (9).

One-piece cast component having at least one integrated attachment part, and method for producing a cast component

A one-piece cast component having at least one integrated attachment part is disclosed. The component includes at least one pin which is rigidly connected to an attachment part; a housing at least partially enclosing the pin in a contactless manner; the pin being arranged in the axial direction between two axial connecting webs and being rigidly connected via the latter to the housing; the pin being arranged in the radial direction between a plurality of radial connecting webs and being rigidly connected via the latter to the housing; wherein the connecting webs are dimensioned in such a way that only the latter break at respective predetermined breaking points when pivoting the attachment part for the first time relative to the housing, whereafter the attachment part, together with the pin, is mounted so as to be pivotable with respect to the housing. The regions of the connecting webs that remain on the housing after the breaking operation prevent the pin from being removed from the housing. The disclosure further relates to a method for producing such a cast component having an integrated attachment part.

Stopper for closing neck of container

A method for manufacturing a stopper for closing a neck of a container comprises a first step of molding the stopper in one piece. The stopper includes a sealing membrane provided with a central opening, a tubular stem centered on an axis and extending from the sealing membrane around the central opening, and a capsule connected, by a tear wall, to a free end of the stem. The capsule is configured to be wedged in the stem to seal the neck of the container. The method comprises a second step in which, while the tear wall is intact, a force, in line with the axis, is applied to the stopper so as to break the tear wall and move the capsule inside the stem until the capsule is wedged in the stem.

Interior panels including substrates with inserts for defining integrated airbag deployment doors for motor vehicles and methods of making the same

Interior panels having integrated airbag deployment doors for motor vehicles and methods for making such interior panels are provided. In one example, an interior panel for a motor vehicle includes a substrate. The substrate includes a substrate section and an insert. The insert is disposed in the substrate section such that a frangible tear seam is formed along an interface between the insert and the substrate section defining an integrated airbag deployment door in the substrate.

Method for manufacturing a plug for a container neck

The present disclosure relates to a manufacturing method for a plug for a container neck. In one implementation, a skirt of the plug is molded and provided with an attachment device adapted to removably attach to the container neck and with a permanent retention strip around the container neck. The retention strip is adapted to pass, by folding, from a molding configuration to an operating configuration. A peripheral break line is then cut out in the skirt, adapted so as to be broken during the first opening of the plug. In some implementations, the retention strip may be prefolded and thereby pass from a molding configuration to an intermediate prefolded configuration. The retention strip is then folded until it passes into an operating configuration. In some implementations, the folding of the retention strip may pass the retention strip from an intermediate prefolded configuration to an operating configuration.
