Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a metal cap closure which incorporates in a characteristic manner means which allow it to be simply and rapidly removed, either partially or totally, from the container to which it is applied, in particular vials or bottles containing liquid medicinals.
  • Closures of such kind consist of a metal cap to which is given the dual task of holding stably in place the seal stopper or liner of the container and acting, owing to its intactness, as proof of the integrity of the said seal stopper or liner and thus also of the integrity of the container as to sterility and other aspects of quality.
  • the overall object of the present invention is to embody a cap that will adequately satisfy the aforesaid two conflicting requirements and which is at the same time simple and economical in construction.
  • the present invention embodies a closure for containers comprising a stopper held in place by a metal cap crimped onto the mouth of the container into which the said stopperr is inserted as a seal, the said cap featuring in its upper portion a substantially circular raised part into which is inserted, and secured by riveting of the circular raised part, a tear-off crown for partial or total removal of the said cap, which crown has a gripping-edge which partially overtops the skirt of said cap, wherein provision is made at the base of the said raised part for an annular line of least resistance surrounding it.
  • the line of least resistance can also be open and continue in two parallel lines in the top and skirt of the cap.
  • the closure in question is indicated overall by 10 and consists structurally of three parts: a liner or stopper 11 for sealing a container 12, a metal cap 13 for keeping the liner or stopper 11 stably in place, and a plastics material crown 14 which is secured to the cap 13 for the partial or total removal of this latter, in the manner that will hereinafter be explained.
  • the liner or stopper 11 is of traditional type, made of rubber or an elastomer, and is inserted with interference in the mouth 15 of the container 12.
  • the metal cap 13 is formed by pressing of a disk, for example a disk made of aluminium, and comprises a skirt 16 with a top 17 from the upper side of which projects a central head or raised part 18, of smaller diameter.
  • annular line of least resistance 19 which can optionally continue in two parallel lines of least resistance 20 in the top and skirt of the cap, as is clearly shown in Figures 2 and 3 of the drawings.
  • the annular crown 14 On the said raised part 18, in the condition illustrated in the enlarged view 2, is secured the annular crown 14 which is held in place in a stable manner by riveting thereon of the raised part 18, as shown in Figure 1.
  • the crown 14 also features a gripping-edge 21 which partially overtops the skirt 16 of the cap.
  • the annular edge 21 of the crown 14 is gripped and pulled in the direction of the arrow F in Figure 1 in a position diametrically opposed to the lines of least resistance 20, if present; to this end the raised part 18, or the crown 14 will bear a suitable indication.
  • the parallel lines of least resistance 20 need not be provided, since there will suffice the annular line of least resistance 19 the fracture of which will allow the removal solely of the raised part 18; in such case provision will also be made for a small crown adjacent the cap, the rest of the cap remaining in place, and solidly restraining the stopper to the mouth of the vial or bottle.
