A closure (10,30) attachable to a container having an opening. The closure (10,30) comprising a top portion (11) and a skirt portion (12) depending from the top portion (11). A tamper evident band (13,33) is joined to the skirt portion (12) by one or more frangible connectors (14,34). The band (13,33) comprises a first portion (15,35) extending generally away from the skirt portion (12) and a second portion (16,36) hingedly connected to the first portion (15,35) and movable between a first moldable orientation and at least a second operable orientation. For closure (10), the second portion (16) comprises a plurality of curved undercuts (18) extending at least partially into a cavity of the closure (10) when it is in its operable orientation. For closure (30), the inner surface (35a) of the first portion (35) can have a plurality of inwardly extending protuberances (40) positioned thereon.

The present disclosure relates to a container lid, comprising a lid surface having an area for an outlet opening that is defined by a circumferential edge, a lifting tab for opening the area, said lifting tab being fastened to a top side of the lid surface by a fastening means, possibly in the form of a rivet. The lid surface has a first locking element protruding from the lid surface or protruding into the lid surface, wherein the lifting tab has a second locking element that interacts with the first locking element such that a rotation of the lifting tab about the fastening means is prevented. The fastening means is configured to interact with element and/or the second locking element such that a rotation of the fastening means is prevented. The disclosure further comprises a container and a method for producing a container lid.

The hybrid plug is a single component replacement for three components, the paint plug, conventional plug and capseal in a drum closure. It is formed from a single sheet of metal and has a plug portion and a capseal portion which vary in thickness. The plug portion has a collar and an externally threaded wall with a plug gasket disposed on a plug gasket seat. The capseal portion is provided with ears and scoring to enable separation from the plug portion and with a lining on the inner wall of the capseal portion to safeguard against plug gasket failure. The capseal portion may be recessed at intervals to form dimples which hold the hybrid plug in place in an automated insertion process. The hybrid plug provides a passage for air and gases during paint curing and leak testing without necessitating removal.

The present document describes a cap (110) for closing a container (114), the container having a neck (112) with an upper edge (118) defining a discharge opening (116). The cap comprises a lid (122) and a seal gasket (136) for sealingly engaging the neck of the container. The lid has at least one inwardly extending projection (132) for supporting the seal gasket.

A bottle package is disclosed for providing consumer packaging for liquid products. The package includes a paper-based cylindrical main body section providing a circular footprint for the package. In one embodiment, the package includes a paper conical section attached to the main body section. In one embodiment, the package includes a plastic bottle top comprising a screw on cap fitted to and adhered to an inside of the paper conical section to provide a screw on bottle top section on a top of the package. In one embodiment, the main body section includes annular creases configured to enable a collapsed state wherein the main body section includes accordion-style folds.

A closure having a liner is provided. The liner forms one or more venting recesses that facilitate relieving pressure from a container to which the closure is affixed. In embodiments the liner extends from an outer surface of an annular wall through an outer disc of the liner.

A cap for a container comprises: a retaining ring intended to remain associated with a neck of the container; a closing element movable between a closed position and an open position; at least one connecting band for keeping the closing element connected to the retaining ring even in the open position. The retaining ring comprises engaging members suitable for engaging with the neck in order to prevent the retaining ring from being pulled off the neck. The engaging members comprise first engaging elements and second engaging elements which extend towards the inside of the retaining ring. The first engaging elements have a shape different from the second engaging elements, so as to be in contact with the neck in the open position, in order to obstruct rotation of the retaining ring around the neck.

A container closure and methods are disclosed for providing visible evidence of removal of the closure from a container after installation by a manufacturer. The closure includes tamper evidence bridges comprising small tabs of material that extend from a bottom-most edge of the closure to a tamper evidence ledge of the container. The bridges break when the closure is rotated relative to the tamper evidence ledge, thereby providing readily visible evidence that the closure has been removed after installation by the manufacturer. In some embodiments, a tamper evidence closure engages with threads of a finish of the container. Cam locks around the perimeter of the tamper evidence closure are permanently flared by cams on the finish during loosening of the closure. Outward flaring of the cam locks provides a visual indication that the tamper evidence closure has been loosened after installation by a manufacturer.
