- the annular portion may be arranged to cooperate with a chamfered portion on the cap when the cap has been moved to an end position.
- a benefit with the arrangement of the chamfered portion of the cap and the annular portion of the opening duct is that the container may be resealed and the sealing is obtained by contact between the annular portion and the chamfered portion.
- the seal breaking portion is in one embodiment arranged for point engagements on the seal. Thus, the forces needed for breaking the seal will be less than if the cap would engage the whole surface of the seal.
- the means for actuating the cap may be in the form of a tab which is movable between a first position in which the tab is arranged parallel to the end closure and a second position in which the tab is arranged perpendicular to said end closure.
- a benefit for this arrangement is that the tab is easy accessible for the user and with small effort the container may be opened.
- Actuation of the cap means that the cap is turned in a first direction to break a seal and turned in a second direction to remove the cap from the container.
- the cap may be provided with duct engaging means engaging corresponding cap engaging means of the opening duct. By the engaging means the cap is kept in place before breaking the seal and after the seal has been broken.
- External threads on the cap may be arranged to be engaged with internal threads in the opening duct.
- the threads provide the possibility of obtaining a downward movement giving the person opening the container enough force to break the seal.
- Annular ribs may be arranged on the cap and on the opening duct. Such arrangement will give a stable snap lock function holding the cap in place.
