  • the closure is designed as a separate part. It has a section which lies against the end face of the bottle.
  • the US 6,299,033 B1 describes a cap for a container.
  • the cap has flaps that can be opened and closed.
  • the US 2008/0035658 A1 describes a container with a container closure according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the US 5,667,094 A. describes another container with a container closure.
  • the container closure has a sealing section which comes to rest on the inside of the edge of the container opening.
  • the WO 2005/074571 A2 describes another container with a container closure.
  • a sealing section is provided on the container closure, which lies against the inside of the container opening when the container closure is closed.

  • the container can be manufactured simply and inexpensively by means of the injection molding process.
  • the container closure and container body can be made together in one piece by the injection molding process. A separate production of the container closure and an assembly on the container body are therefore not necessary.
