The present invention relates to a tethered screw plastic stopper, comprising a tamper shell positioned around the stopper. The tamper shell includes a retaining feature operable to cooperate with a top ring extending outwardly around a bottle neck. The stopper also includes a roof connected to the tamper shell through a hinge and separably connected to the tamper shell through a weakness line, wherein the tamper shell may be moved downwardly in rotation into an opened position.

The present invention relates to a dispensing closure for a fluid container with a spout for dispensing a fluid, said dispensing closure comprising a peripheral wall, a transverse wall and a toggle member, wherein said peripheral wall and said transverse wall are made of an elastic material. The dispensing closure also comprises a valve element.

The presently-disclosed subject matter includes valve covers. The valve covers can protect valves from exposure as well as from tampering. In some embodiments the valve cover comprises a cap that includes a top end and a side wall that is substantially cylindrical. Embodiments of valve covers also include a plug on an interior side of the top end of the cap that projects toward the opening of the cap. When the valve cover is installed, the plug can extend beyond an opening of the valve.

A bottle-shaped can includes a cap having an excellent sealing ability but easy to be opened. A top section includes a leading end section as an upper end of a neck portion, a diametrically-largest section formed beneath the leading end section, a diametrically-shrunk section extending downwardly from the diametrically-largest section, and an outer circumferential wall section extending downwardly from the diametrically-shrunk section. The leading end section, the diametrically-largest section, and diametrically-shrunk section form a smooth curved surface. A curvature of the diametrically-largest section in a cross-section is zero or negative value, given that a curvature of the diametrically-shrunk section is positive value. A flexion section is formed between the diametrically-shrunk section and the outer circumferential wall section. The outer diameter of the outer circumferential wall section in which the curvature is zero or negative value is larger than an outer diameter of the flexion section.

Provided is a plugging-type resin cap which can sufficiently seal a container and in which, upon uncapping of the container, a restraining band loosens after the pressure in the container is released without the application of an excessive force. A plugging-type resin cap (100) includes a restraining band (130), a tab (140), and engagement projections (151). The restraining band (130) has an arcuate restraining portion (131), stoppers (132), and an upwardly projecting portion (133). The stoppers (132) are formed to extend radially outward from the circumferential both ends of the restraining portion (131). The engagement projections (151) are disposed over an outer side surface of a skirt wall (120) in the vicinity of the circumferential both ends of a tab (140). The stoppers (132) and the engagement projections (151) are formed to be fittable with each other.

A flow-limiting device for controlling the distribution of products, to be fitted into a neck of a container for such products comprises a flow-limiting part, and a sealing part wherein the flow-limiting part consists of an active material and comprises a dispensing opening. The sealing part is made of a polymer material different to the material of the flow-limiting part. The sealing part is adapted to form a moisture-tight seal with the neck of the container.

The invention relates to a closure cap for a substantially cylindrical vessel, with a lateral surface, a closed end and an open end, and with a tear-open strip having a grip tab for opening the closure cap. In order to produce closure caps which are designed such that they can be applied by machine to substantially cylindrical vessels, it is proposed within the context of the invention that the lateral surface is substantially cylindrical, at least in the area of the open end, and that the closure cap is of stackable design and has means for stacking at least two closure caps with defined spacing. The invention is based on the finding that, for cost reasons, it is useful if also closure caps for substantially cylindrical vessels can be stacked, i.e. pushed onto one another, during transport as they then take up less space. In the case of machine-applied closure caps, too, it is advantageous to stack the caps, since the machine can then collect them more easily and prior positioning of the closure cap is superfluous.
