Synthetic resin container lid
A cap-type synthetic resin container lid is easily removable from a container without separating to form scrap pieces, The container lid includes thin-walled inversion pieces that extend upward beyond a top panel wall from their lower ends which connect to the outer surface of a skirt wall, a restraint wall that is connected to the upper ends of the thin-walled inversion pieces and that has a specific site in the circumferential direction, and an operating section connected to the outer surface of the skirt wall via a connecting piece that extends radially out from the skirt wall at a position in alignment with the specific site. Locked projections and locking projections, on the restraint wall and the connecting piece respectively, restrict expansion of the restraint wall.
Closing cap for a container
A closing cap for a container includes a separating line on a lateral wall forming a retaining ring, configured to remain anchored to a neck of the container and extending up to a free edge. A closing element is engageable with the neck, to open or close the container. The separating line is circumferentially interrupted to define in the lateral wall a joining zone, extending at a first angle, in which the retaining ring and the closing element are joined. An engagement element of the retaining ring is bent when the cap is closed. First and second incision lines allow deformability of a connecting portion and a region of the engagement element extending at a second angle, so that when first opening the closing element, the region goes beyond the locking ring and deforms to rest on the locking ring in an extended configuration.
CLOSURE SYSTEM FOR CONTAINER
A closure system for a container. The system includes a closure configured to couple with a finish of the container to close an opening of the container defined by the finish. A tamper ring is removably attached to the closure. Upon removing the closure from cooperation with the finish of the container, the tamper ring detaches from the closure and remains on a neck of the container.
Snap-over spout fitment and manufacture methods
A container comprises: a body having a neck extending to a mouth defining a body opening; a spout fitment having a spout within the body opening, an outer wall surrounding an upper portion of the neck, and an intermediate wall between the outer wall and the spout; and a cap having sidewall. An external thread of the cap sidewall is engaged to an internal thread of the intermediate wall. The spout fitment has one or more projections extending mouthward from the outer wall in backlocked engagement with one or more features of the neck.
BEVERAGE CONTAINER HAVING FRAGRANT COMPONENT
A beverage container having a fragrant component, and related materials and methods of manufacturing the beverage container, are described. The beverage container may be a bottle assembly including the fragrant component between a finish of the bottle and a cap. The fragrant component may be encased and protected between the cap and the finish, and upon removal of the cap, the fragrant component may remain on the finish and be exposed to release a fragrance. The fragrance can contribute to an experience of a consumer when the consumer drinks a beverage from the bottle. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
Cap with a tamper evidence and a spout
A cap arranged to interact with a spout. The cap comprises a top section, a side wall section attached to the top section and a tamper element attached to the side wall section in a tearing interface. The tearing interface may be provided with a weakening line that is arranged to break when the cap is unscrewed such that the tamper element is separated from the side wall section. The cap further comprises at least one resilient cutting element arranged to the side wall. The at least one resilient cutting element is arranged to cut off a membrane of the spout when the cap is unscrewed. The cap is arranged such that the weakening line is arranged to break before the membrane of the spout is cut off when the cap is being unscrewed from the spout.
Closure with hinged tamper band
A container assembly including a pouch, spout and closure is provided. The closure includes a tamper-evident band having two or more wall sections. Adjacent wall sections of the tamper band may be connected to one another with frangible connectors configured to break upon twist-off of the closure from the spout. The closure also includes one or more support walls supported between an outer wall and central wall of the closure. The closure further includes one or more hinges attaching the ends of the wall sections of the tamper band to the lower ends of the support walls. The hinges are configured to increase the resistance required to break or otherwise distort the frangible connections of the tamper-evident band, so as to prevent or lower the risk of accidental or inadvertent breakage of the tamper-evident band prior to twist-off of the closure from the spout.
CONTAINER CAP AND CONTAINER HAVING SAME COUPLED THERETO
Provided are a container cap coupled to the mouth of a container in which contents are contained; and a container to which the container cap is coupled. The container cap includes: a main body part coupled to a container inlet of a container and having an opening formed on an upper side thereof; a cover part connected to the main body part by a hinge part and opening and closing an upper opening of the main body part by hinge rotation; a separation part connected to the cover part by a first connection part and connected to the main body part by a second connection part detachably; and a fixing part formed on the cover part so that the separation part is fixedly coupled thereto after the second connection part is separated by a user's manipulation so that the cover part can be separated from the main body part.
CAP WITH A TAMPER EVIDENCE AND A SPOUT
A cap arranged to interact with a spout. The cap includes a top section, a side wall section attached to the top section and a tamper element attached to the side wall section in a tearing interface. The tearing interface may be provided with a weakening line that is arranged to break when the cap is unscrewed such that the tamper element is separated from the side wall section. The cap further includes at least one resilient cutting element arranged to the side wall. The at least one resilient cutting element is arranged to cut off a membrane of the spout when the cap is unscrewed. The cap is arranged such that the weakening line is arranged to break before the membrane of the spout is cut off when the cap is being unscrewed from the spout.
Stopper device for the neck of a container, container provided with such a device, method for stopping such a container, and method for production of such a device
The invention relates to a stopper device with an external cap made from plastic and an internal insert for fixing the device around the neck of the container. The sleeve of the cap forms a head, into which the insert may be introduced and permanently fixed and a skirt extending axially from the insert. According to the invention, contamination on the neck of the container may be limited and the appearance improved. Particularly at the base of the neck, the skirt essentially forms a frustum converging towards the axis of the sleeve on extending from the head, before the installation of the device around the neck, the frustum forming, at the end opposite the head, an internal surface to come into contact against the container neck under the influence of an elastic deformation of the sleeve as a result of the installation of the device around the neck.
