A system for capping a mouth of a container may include: a press-on cap for irreversibly capping the mouth of the container, wherein the press-on cap is made of polymeric material able to withstand high-temperature sterilization and wherein the press-on cap may include: a tubular sleeve extending along an axis of extension and configured to be irreversibly locked to the mouth of the container; a rim that radially projects out of the tubular sleeve at an end of the press-on cap; a capping wall oriented transverse to the tubular sleeve and extending from the rim over a front surface delimited by the rim, wherein the front surface faces outwardly; and a plurality of protrusions, which extend out of the front surface. The front surface may have a height variation relative to the rim across the front surface ranging from −1% to 1% of a characteristic dimension of the capping wall.

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.

Examples include a consumer product comprising a detergent product and a container comprising a box, a cover and a lock to maintain the cover in a closed position. The lock comprises at least a first actuator moveable from a locking position to an opening position by applying an actuation pressure onto the first actuator when the cover is in the closed position. The cover comprises a first tactile discontinuity, the first tactile discontinuity facing the first actuator, the first tactile discontinuity permitting displacing the first actuator from the locking position to the opening position by applying the actuation pressure at the first tactile discontinuity when the cover is in the closed position, whereby the cover further comprise a second tactile discontinuity, the second tactile discontinuity directly facing the second specific portion of sidewalls when the cover is in the closed position.

It is provided a cap (10) for closing an opening (41) of a container (30), comprising a mainly tubular skirt (12), wherein the skirt (12) comprises a bayonet notch (26) for guiding a pin (28) of the container (30), wherein the skirt (12) comprises a guiding rim (38) running in axial direction and in circumferential direction towards the bayonet notch (26) for guiding the pin (28) of the container (30) into the bayonet notch (26). When the cap (10) is mounted to the container (30), the pin (28) may slide along the guiding rim (38) towards the bayonet notch (26) even at an originally significant displacement in circumferential direction, so that a facilitated mounting of a cap (10) to a container (30) with a bayonet mount is enabled.

A cap manipulator and a cap assembly are provided. The cap manipulator includes a first airbag member, a second airbag member, and an airstream channel structure therebetween and enabling inner spaces of the first airbag member and the second airbag member to be communicated. If the second airbag member is squeezed, a volume of the first airbag member is greater than that of an insertion space, and if the second airbag member is not squeezed, the volume of the first airbag member is smaller than or equal to that of the insertion space.

A beverage container with a tactile indication of a properly open position for drinking. The beverage container includes a base, a collar, and a cap having an annular seal gasket for opening and closing the container for pouring/drinking. The improvement is a collar stop located on the collar, together with a pair of seal stops extending from the seal gasket and forming a notch therebetween. Rotation of the cap to open the container becomes more difficult as the collar stop interferes with the leading one of the seal stops. Continued rotation to seat the collar stop in the notch provides a tactile indication that the cap has rotated to the properly open position and further rotation may be avoided.

A child-resistant container and closure, wherein the container include a base and an upstanding wall defining an inner volume of the container. The container has an open top for gaining access into the inner volume of the container. A cylindrical neck extends upwards from a periphery of the open top of the container. An outer surface of the neck has at least three lug threads that consecutively run along the circumference of the neck. A first lower pointer can be provided just below the neck which points upwards. A skirt of the closure has at least three male threads, wherein the at least three male threads of the closure can engage with the at least three lug threads of the container for securing the closure to the container. The outer surface of the skirt has a first upper pointer which points downwards, wherein the first upper pointer and the first lower pointer are positioned such that at least three male threads and the at least three lug threads can engage and disengage only when the first upper pointer is aligned to the first lower pointer.

A spout cap is a spout cap for closing a mouth portion of a spout main body, and includes a cylindrical body portion made of resin, and a sealing film joined to the body portion, in which the sealing film has a thermal bonding layer which is configured to join to a distal end surface of the mouth portion when the mouth portion is closed.

The Rotatable Beverage Can Cover (200) enables a beverage drinker of a stay-on-tab beverage can (100) to drink the beverage (600) without being subjected to unsanitary lid surface conditions. The Rotatable Beverage Can Cover (200) comprises a circular surface (210), a curved side wall (300) and a notch (500). The Rotatable Beverage Can Cover (200) is fastened to the stay-on-tab beverage can (100) and placed in its “sanitary protection” position so that: a) the Rotatable Beverage Can Cover (200) covers the drinking contact area (190) and b) the notch (500) on the Rotatable Beverage Can Cover (200) allows access to the pull tab area (195). The beverage drinker rotates the Rotatable Beverage Can Cover (200) to move the Rotatable Beverage Can Cover (200) from its “sanitary protection” position to its “drinking access” position so that: a) the circular surface (210) of the Rotatable Beverage Can Cover (200) covers the pull tab area (195): and b) the notch (500) allows access to the drinking contact area (190) and the scored opening (126).

A closure includes a flip-top structure and a tamper-evident band. The flip-top structure is restricted from being opened because it interfaces against an underlying protrusion, such as a thread of a container's neck. To open the flip-top structure the closure is rotated with respect to the container neck. When the closure is rotated with respect to the container neck, the closure is configured such that the tamper-evident band breaks before the flip-top structure is permitted to rotate to an open position. Thus, the closure prevents accessing the container's contents until after the tamper-evident band is broken even with the addition of a flip-top structure.
