20220380093 · 2022-12-01 ·

The present disclosure relates to a tethered plastic screw stopper for closing a bottle. The stopper comprises a tamper band, a closure shell, and an annular strip positioned between and connected to the tamper band and the closure shell. The tamper band comprises a first bottom hinge connected to the annular strip, and the closure shell comprises a second top hinge connected to the annular strip and diametrically opposite the first bottom hinge. A bottom weakness line is positioned between the tamper band and the annular strip proximate to the bottom hinge, and a top weakness line is positioned between the annular strip and the closure shell proximate to the top hinge. Also disclosed is a method for making the tethered plastic screw stopper.

REFILLABLE PLASTIC CONTAINER
20220371764 · 2022-11-24 ·

The invention relates to a refillable plastic container (100) which comprises a neck (10) having a neck opening (11) and a container body enclosing a filling volume which are separated from one another by a substantially radially protruding support ring (30). The neck of the plastic container has an axial length (L) equal to or less than 17.25 mm, measured from a mouth rim (12) of the neck opening to an underside of the support ring.

Resealable Pouring Element for Cardboard/Plastic Composite Packages With a Tamper-Evident Seal to Indicate the Initial Opening
20220371772 · 2022-11-24 ·

Represented and described is a resealable pouring element for cardboard/plastic composite packages, in particular beverage packages, with a base element having a circumferential fastening flange as well as an external thread, with opening means arranged at least in the unopened state of the pouring element in the interior of the base element and with a screw cap with internal thread, wherein the opening means are designed such that when the composite package is initially opened by unscrewing the screw cap by breaking the composite material of the package or a barrier layer located in the base element, a pour opening is created inside the pouring element and wherein at least one tamper-evident seal is arranged between the base element and the screw cap. In order to reduce the assembly effort for such a resealable pouring element, it is provided that an anchor ring is arranged below the screw cap and is connected to the screw cap via a hinge a rotationally fixed manner and in that the tamper-evident seal consists of an indicating element, whose one end is fixedly connected to the anchor ring or the screw cap and in which the other end is connected to the anchor ring by means of a predetermined breaking point in such manner that the predetermined breaking point of at least one mandrel element arranged on the fastening flange is broken when the screw cap is unscrewed and thus indicates to the consumer that an initial opening has already taken place.

CLOSURE DEVICE FOR CONTAINER

A closure device for a container that defines a neck and an annular flange. The closure device comprises a cap body, a tamper evidence (TE) band positioned below the annular flange, a tongue that extends from the cap body towards the tamper evidence band and first and second leashes positioned on either side of the tongue. The first and second leashes connect the cap body to the tamper evidence (TE) band, and allow the cap body to be removed from the neck of the container while remaining attached to the tamper evidence (TE) band. When the cap body is actuated to a fully open position the first and second leashes act as a torsion spring for causing the tongue to exert a force against the neck of the container for retaining the cap body in the fully open position.

Modified Sidewall of Tethered Closure
20220371785 · 2022-11-24 ·

A closure includes a cap having a top wall and a skirt perpendicular to the top wall and extending downwardly from the top wall to a lower edge. The skirt includes an inner surface having a sealing formation. A band is concentric with and attached to the lower edge of the skirt by a plurality of frangible members. A tab is formed at a hinge location from the band and extending from the lower edge of the skirt to one or more lines of weakness.

Containers and closures

A closure may have a top wall and a side wall depending from the top wall. A plug seal device may depend from said top wall within the side wall. The plug seal device may have an upper section, a lower section, and a sealing section proximate the boundary between the upper section and the lower section. The sealing section is operable such that when the plug seal device is inserted in an opening to an inner cavity in a container, the sealing section engages with an inner container surface to provide a seal between an inner cavity of the container and the external environment.
