  • the invention relates to a closable desiccant lid hinge, tamper-evident and compensation device, constituting the resealable closing means of the open end of the container, said cap-lid being connected to the body the container by a hinge type connection associated with a ring secured to said container and having a tamper evident placed between the cap-lid and said ring forcefully inserted on the container during its final closure after filling.
  • This break-in indicator makes it possible, when the user first opens the container, to note that it has not been opened after it has been filled by the pharmaceutical laboratory, thus ensuring the physical integrity of the container. protective packaging guaranteeing the authenticity, qualitative and quantitative, of the product contained.
  • the invention relates to a reclosable desiccant lid hinge, tamper and compensation device, said compensation device for exerting mechanical pressure, spring effect on the stored products, especially pharmaceutical, in the form of, more specifically, lozenges, tablets, tablets.

  • a cap comprises a ring which is fixed permanently and forcefully on the upper outer end of the container, once the latter filled.
  • This ring acts as a tamper evidence by the presence of breakable bridges between the upper portion of said ring and the adjacent lower portion of said plug. These breakable bridges are broken during the first opening of the container.
