A cap includes: a cap body including a top plate and a skirt having a tubular shape disposed on a circumferential edge of the top plate, a sealing member disposed on an inner surface of the top plate and configured to seal a mouth of a container, a slit extending in a circumferential direction of the skirt, and a worked portion formed at least in a part of the slit in the circumferential direction on at least a side of the slit closer to the top plate.

A package includes a container formed to include a product-storage region and a mouth arranged to open into the product-storage region and a closure coupled to the container to selectively close the mouth.

A system for a tamperproof seal having a cap assembly and a bottle assembly is disclosed. The bottle assembly includes a bottle with a neck and bottle threads. The cap assembly includes a cap with a top portion and a bottom portion which engage the neck of the bottle. Between the top and bottom portion there is a seal created. The seal is initially intact and only broken once the top and bottom portion are separated. The seal cannot be replaced once it has been broken. If the seal is broken reaching the intended party, then tampering occurred. The top portion may be removably mounted to the bottle. The top portion includes inner threads that engage the bottle threads. The bottom portion includes inner teeth angled towards each other which engage the bottommost of bottle threads. Inner teeth prevent the replacing of the cap once the seal is broken.

A package includes a container formed to include a product-storage region and a mouth arranged to open into the product-storage region and a closure configured to mate with the container and establish a closed arrangement of the package and to be separated from the package at the option of a user to establish an opened arrangement.

A closure for a container is provided with a top portion and a skirt depending from an outer periphery of the top portion. A generally circular rim extends downwards from the lower surface of the top portion. A liner is attached to the closure between an outer surface of the rim and an inner surface of the skirt. The liner is configured to provide a fluid tight seal for containers having varied neck dimensions and/or profiles. One or more projections extend into a space formed between the lower surface of the top portion, an inner surface of the skirt, and an outer surface of the rim, with the liner enveloping and being supported in the closure by the one or more projections.

A closure for a container, the closure comprising a top panel, a skirt extending from the periphery of the top panel, and a tamper indicating band frangibly connected to an open end of the skirt at a line of weakness, the band including a retaining segment (109) on an inner surface thereof so arranged, when the closure is in a closed position on a neck of the container, to engage under an engagement surface of a retaining structure arranged on the container neck, wherein the tamper indicating band includes at least one indent (117) arranged on an outer surface of the tamper indicating bond.

A combination of a closing element (28) and a receiving structure (24) is provided wherein the closing element (28) and receiving structure (24) are in an initially assembled orientation which prevents, but which can be subsequently operated to permit, communication through the receiving structure (24). The receiving structure (24) includes at least one laterally projecting shear member (40) and a spout (30) defining (A) an access passage (32). The closing element (28) has an aperture (78) for receiving a shear member (40) of the receiving structure (24). At least one frangible bridge (78) extends across a portion of the aperture (74) for being severed by the shear member (40) during relative rotation between the closing element (28) and the receiving structure (24).

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.
