The present invention relates to a reusable cup comprising a cup body formed from a liquid impervious, flexible material, the cup having an upper portion, a middle portion and a base portion, and having foldable pre-forms arranged so as to define at least a first folding hinge around a first circumferential location interposed between the middle portion and the upper portion, and a second folding hinge around a second circumferential location, separate from the first circumferential location, interposed between the base portion and the middle portion, an outer peripheral band is formed around the middle portion of the cup to provide a central band, wherein the cup body is foldable into itself, at the circumferential locations, so as to adopt a nested, concentric form.

Described is a combination of a closing cap (1′) for a container (2) and a neck (201) of the container (2), wherein the cap (1′) comprises a lateral wall (3) extending about an axis (Z) and a transversal wall (4) positioned at an end of the lateral wall (3), a separation line (5′) of the lateral wall (3) defining a retaining ring (301′), configured to remain anchored to the neck (201) and a closing element (302) to open or close the container (2). The separation line (5′) extends about the axis (Z) and is circumferentially interrupted so as to leave the retaining ring (301) and the closing element (302) joined together. The retaining ring (301′) comprises a retaining portion (303), configured to engage internally with a locking ring (202) of the neck (201), the latter projecting from an outer surface of the neck (201) and extending in a direction parallel to the axis (Z) between an upper end (202c) and a lower end (202b). The retaining ring (301′) comprises a joining portion (305) which allows the retaining ring (301′) to be joined to the closing element (302), a first connecting band (306) and a second connecting band (307), which connect the joining portion (305) to the retaining portion (303), and a tab (308) positioned between the first connecting band (306) and the second connecting band (307). The connecting bands (306; 307) are made by an incision line (7′) which comprises a first lateral stretch (702′) and a second lateral stretch (703′) wherein the first lateral stretch (702′) and the second lateral stretch (703′), when the closing element (302) is in a closed condition, are arranged in such a way that when the closing element (302) is in an open condition and the connecting bands (306, 307) keep the closing element (302) connected to the retaining ring (301′), the tab (308) can rest on the neck (201) beyond the upper end (202c) of the locking ring (202) towards the dispensing opening (203).

A package includes a container and a closure. The container has an external thread formation on the neck portion and a circumferential bead. The closure includes a first and second closure portion. The first closure portion includes a top wall portion, a skirt portion, and first and second frangible connections. The first frangible connection extends around the closure circumference. The second frangible connection is spaced from the first frangible connection. At least a portion of the second frangible connection is located further from the top wall portion than a portion of the first frangible connection. The second frangible connection defines an area adapted to form a tab. The second closure portion includes a tamper-evident band. The closure is adapted to be opened by twisting to break the frangible connections and expose the tab and then flipping the first closure portion from the second closure portion via the exposed tab. The closure is adapted to be locked when flipped.

The invention refers to a capping device intended to be fixed on a neck (2) of a container including an orifice (3), including the capping device: a cap (1) which has a helical thread (7) intended to cooperate with a helical thread (6) formed in the neck (2); a lower ring (9) fixed axially to the neck (2); a hinge device that connects the cap (1) to the lower ring (9),
including the capping device in addition a cap locking device (1) configured to lock the cap (1) in an open tilted position, including such a locking device a bead (22) which is formed, between the two blades (11, 12), and which is configured to rest against the neck (2) of the container when the cap (1) is in the open tilted position, the heel (22) has an internal face where at least one of the ribs of the helical thread series (7) is formed.

A cap for a container is formed so that the cap has a top plate and a circular sidewall. Two opposite sides of the circular sidewall circularly connect to each other, one periphery of the circular sidewall connecting to one surface of the top plate forming a closed end, and another periphery of the circular sidewall at an opposite side of the closed end forms an opened end. Incisions are in the circular sidewall. The incisions form a ring member located at the opened end of the cap separated from a main body of the cap by a first incision and a second incision between the opened end of the main body and the ring member.

The present invention provides a closure cap for a container comprising a lid and a shell, and a hinge region for pivotally connecting the lid to the shell and for locking the lid in an open position thereof. The lid comprises a top panel having a tongue adjacent the hinge region and a cylindrical wall suspended from a bottom face of the top panel and connected to the shell via a plurality of bridges which break upon a first opening of the lid. The hinge region comprises a pair of elongate hinge elements spaced apart from each other, and a ratchet-like member disposed therebetween.

Screw capping devices are configured to remain tethered to a container after opening of the container. The screw capping devices include a cylindrical wall having a section having an end closed by a bottom and a section having an open end, the section being connected to the section by a circumferential junction having a non-breakable connection and a breakable connection, the section further having a breakable connection extending parallel to the circumferential junction, the breakable connection and the breakable connection being configured to be broken during a first unscrewing of the section. The breaking of the breakable connections creates two arms retaining the section to the container.

Stopper for bottles, comprising a pouring element (1) assembled with a hinged closing cap (2), the closing cap (2) being able to be placed in an open position and a closed position, characterized in that said closing cap (2) comprises a protrusion (3) in its closest part to the pouring element (1), whose protrusion (3) contacts the pouring element (1) in the open position of the closing cap (2).

A flip-top closure includes first and second polymeric closure portions. The first closure portion includes a top wall portion, a sealing mechanism and an annular skirt portion. The second closure portion includes a tamper-evident band. The closure portions are attached by a line of weakness. The closure portions are further attached via a hinge. The hinge includes a locking tab, a flexible tab and linking segments. The locking tab extends further outwardly from a center of the closure in a closed position than the flexible tab and the linking segments. During the opening of the flip-top closure, the locking tab moves and passes the flexible tab such that the flip-top closure locks in a fully open position.

A container is described herein that is configured to be mounted between joists in a substrate of a structure, such as a floor, wall, or ceiling. The container includes a body portion sized to be disposed between the joists and a lid to cover an opening to the body. The lid can further be configured to be coplanar with a covering material of the substrate so that the container does not project outwardly from the substrate.
