Claims (13)

  1. Fermeture filetée (10) constituée d'un capuchon fileté (1) et d'une bande d'inviolabilité (5), dans laquelle le capuchon fileté (1) comprend une plaque formant tête (2) dotée d'une enveloppe de capuchon (3) cylindrique qui est munie d'un filetage interne (4), et dans laquelle la bande d'inviolabilité (5) comprend une bande flexible (6) et est reliée, par l'intermédiaire d'un ou de plusieurs éléments (7) pouvant être facilement arrachés, au bord inférieur de l'enveloppe de capuchon (3), la bande flexible (6) étant réalisée sous la forme d'une bande flexible périphérique continue qui comprend, de manière répartie sur sa périphérie, plusieurs segments (8) plus facilement extensibles ainsi que des segments (9) situés entre les premiers et relativement moins facilement extensibles, où les segments (8) plus facilement extensibles présentent une section transversale de paroi plus petite, et présentent en particulier à l'état rabattu une épaisseur de paroi, mesurée dans la direction radiale, plus faible que les segments (9) moins facilement extensibles, les segments avec section transversale de paroi plus grande présentant une section transversale en forme de cône s'élargissant vers le haut, le bord supérieur de la bande flexible rabattue comprenant les saillies (11) radialement les plus saillantes vers l'intérieur, caractérisée en ce que la paroi de la bande flexible (6) radialement extérieure à l'état rabattu définit un segment de paroi (16) périphérique sensiblement en forme de cône.
  2. Fermeture filetée (10) selon la revendication 1, caractérisée en ce que le bord intérieur supérieur des segments (9) moins fortement extensibles définit à l'état rabattu de la bande flexible (6) le plus petit diamètre intérieur de la bande flexible.
  3. Fermeture filetée selon la revendication 1, caractérisée en ce que les segments moins facilement extensibles présentent des saillies (11) dépassant radialement vers l'intérieur qui définissent le plus petit diamètre intérieur de la bande flexible (6) rabattue et sont disposées de préférence sur le bord supérieur desdits segments.
  4. Fermeture filetée selon l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que sont prévus entre 5 et 15 segments (8) plus facilement extensibles répartis sur la périphérie de la bande flexible en alternance avec des segments (9) moins facilement extensibles respectivement placés entre ceux-ci.
  5. Fermeture filetée selon l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que la paroi (16) de la bande flexible radialement extérieure à l'état rabattu présente, outre sa forme de base périphérique en forme de cône, un bourrelet (14) légèrement épaissi radialement vers l'extérieur à l'extrémité supérieure de la bande flexible.
  6. Fermeture filetée selon l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que les segments (9) à paroi épaisse présentant les saillies (11) dépassant vers l'intérieur, tel que mesuré dans la direction périphérique, acceptent respectivement de trois à dix fois le segment périphérique de l'un des segments (8) extensibles à paroi mince.
  7. Fermeture filetée selon l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que les segments périphériques (9) ayant une plus grande section transversale de paroi présentent, à leurs extrémités respectives dans la direction périphérique, des segments d'extrémité supérieurs pourvus de saillies (11a, 11b) en forme de nez encore plus prononcées et s'étendant plus loin radialement vers l'intérieur que les régions situées entre ceux-ci.
  8. Fermeture filetée selon l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que les segments de paroi (9) moins extensibles ayant une section transversale de paroi plus grande ne se différencient des segments (8) plus facilement extensibles ayant une section transversale de paroi plus petite que par des saillies supplémentaires en forme de nez dépassant radialement vers l'intérieur et de section transversale sensiblement triangulaire dans la région supérieure de la bande flexible rabattue, lesquelles sont formées par exemple par une section transversale en forme de cône des segments de paroi (9) moins extensibles.
  9. Fermeture filetée selon l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que les saillies en forme de nez, en déviant de leur forme de base triangulaire, présentent une hypoténuse coudée vers l'intérieur.
  10. Fermeture filetée selon l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que le diamètre nominal du capuchon fileté est d'au moins 30 mm, de préférence d'au moins 50 mm.
  11. Combinaison d'une bouteille et d'un capuchon fileté pouvant être vissé sur le goulot de bouteille, comprenant un goulot de bouteille et une bague de sécurité formée dessus, entourant le goulot de bouteille et faisant saillie vers l'extérieur à la manière d'une bride, caractérisée en ce que le capuchon fileté présente les caractéristiques d'au moins l'une des revendications 1 à 10.
  12. Combinaison selon la revendication 11, caractérisée en ce que le diamètre intérieur de la bande flexible, défini par les segments à paroi épaisse de la bande flexible rabattue de manière prête à l'emploi, est plus petit que le diamètre extérieur du goulot de bouteille directement au-dessous de la bague de sécurité.
  13. Combinaison selon la revendication 12, caractérisée en ce que le diamètre extérieur du goulot de bouteille se rétrécit au-dessous de la bague de sécurité à mesure que croît l'éloignement par rapport à la bague de sécurité.
