Definitions

  • the object of the invention is to eliminate this effect of the known closure device and to provide a closure device of the type described at the outset, improving it however in such a way that after the bottle has been opened, that is after the lid has been wholly or partly detached from the skirt, the top edge of the skirt reaches virtually all the way to the horizontal plane of the rim of the bottle mouth, reducing to a minimum the amount of the neck of the bottle left exposed at the top.
  • the skirt of the cap of the closure device according to the invention should replace or simulate the skirt of heatshrink plastic or the like which covers the neck of bottles known hitherto almost as far as the rim of their mouths and maintains this position even after the bottles have been opened.
  • the circumferential line of predetermined tearing consisting of the incisions 7 and bridges 8, 108, 208 between the skirt 4 and the lid 5, is situated - once the cap 3 has been fitted in the manner described above to the neck 2 of the bottle - close to the horizontal plane of the rim 102 of the mouth of the bottle, or else only slightly below this plane, as can be seen in Figs. 5, 7 and 9.
  • the cap 3 is twisted to the left, as would normally be done to unscrew any ordinary screw cap.
  • the distance between said annular stop ridge 13 and the superjacent inwardly-projecting top edge 104 of the skirt allows this skirt 4, when the bottle is being opened, that is during the twisting of the skirt 4 to the left, to move axially downwards by an amount which is basically just sufficient to tear the bridges 8 of the line of predetermined tearing and thus detach the lid 5.
  • the bent-in top edge 104 of the skirt 4 comes to rest on the annular stop ridge 13 on the neck 2 of the bottle and therefore prevents the skirt 4 of the cap 3 from descending axially any further, as illustrated in Fig. 10.
