DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(12) It is not necessary for a device according to the disclosure to have all the features described below. It is also possible for a device according to the disclosure to have only individual features of the examples described below.

(13) FIGS. 1, 4, 7, 9, and 10 illustrate a lamp 100 comprising a top part of the lamp 101 with an illuminant and a bottom part of the lamp 102, in which, for example, an energy storage device such as a rechargeable battery and/or a charging connection can be arranged. In addition, the lamp 100 comprises a first recess 103 and a second recess 400.

(14) The closure body 200 comprises two opposing openings through which the ends 202 and 500 of a bracket 201 protrude (see FIGS. 2 and 5). The closure body moreover comprises a cavity 204 in the form of a through opening and an external thread 203. The external thread 203 can be screwed into an internal thread of a bottle 900 (FIG. 9) in order to close the bottle 900.

(15) As shown in FIGS. 3, 6, and 8, an insert 300 comprises a third recess 301 and a fourth recess 600.

(16) Both the lamp 100 as well as the insert 300 can be introduced into the cavity 204 of the closure body 200 and close it in a liquid-tight manner. For this purpose, when the lamp 100 is to be used and when the closure is used as intended, the ends 202 and 500 of the bracket 201 are introduced into the recesses 103 and 400 by moving the lamp 100 relative to the closure body 200 in a vertical direction. Thereinafter, the lamp 100 is rotated in a horizontal plane relative to the closure body 200. In this way, the ends 202 and 500 of the bracket 201 reach the end of the recesses 103 and 400, as in the case of a bayonet fitting, so that the lamp 100 is reliably held in the closure body 200. A reverse movement allows the lamp 100 to once again be released from the closure body 200, for example to recharge it.

(17) The insert 300 can be connected to and disconnected from the closure body 200 in the same way. Recesses 301 and 600 take the place of recesses 103 and 400, and the shape of recesses 301 and 600 is identical to the shape of recesses 103 and 400.

(18) A user can thus connect and disconnect the lamp 100 and the insert 300 to and from the closure body 200 in a particularly easy manner. This is advantageous if the closure is to be used but the lamp 100 needs to be charged. A user can moreover use another identical lamp so that a charged lamp is always available. It is also possible for the user to have several different inserts 300 so that they can, for example, vary the color.

(19) The form of the recesses 301 and 103 can be recognized particularly well in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8. It should be noted that the recesses 400 and 600 likewise have the same form. The recesses 103 and 301 are respectively a longitudinal slot which extends in a vertical direction when used as intended and to which longitudinal slot is connected a transverse slot which extends in a horizontal direction when used as intended.

(20) The longitudinal slot comprises an end that is open at the bottom during intended use, through which the respective end 202 or alternatively 500 of the bracket 201 can be inserted into the respective recess 103 or alternatively 301. When the lamp 100 or alternatively the insert 300 is rotated relative to the closure body 200, the respective end 202 or alternatively 500 of the bracket 201 then reaches a wall bounding the transverse slot, so that the lamp 100 or alternatively the insert 300 is connected to the closure body 200.

(21) The bottle 900 shown in FIG. 9 is closed with a closure in which the lamp 100 is connected to the closure body 200. However, the bottle can also be closed with a closure in which the insert 300 is connected to the closure body 200.

(22) FIG. 10 shows that the lamp 100 comprises a magnet 1000. The magnet 1000 can be used to attach the lamp 100 to a metal object such as a tent pole or a body part of a motor vehicle when it is detached from the closure body and used individually.
