Definitions

  • the insertion opening is oriented away from the sealing plug.
  • the at least one flexible retaining element comprises an end portion adapted to be received in the annular attachment housing.
  • the retaining collar is configured such that, when the sealing plug is fixed to the neck part and at least until the frangible elements break, the peripheral edge of the retaining flange is axially offset from the junction area between the retaining flange and the outer surface of the neck portion.
  • the at least one flexible retention element is a flexible retention flap.
  • the tamper-evident ring comprises a plurality of flexible retaining elements distributed over its inner periphery.
  • the retaining elements are regularly distributed over the inner periphery of the tamper-evident ring.
  • the at least one first drive element comprises a first cam surface
  • the at least one second drive element comprises a second cam surface configured to cooperate with the first. cam surface so as to urge, during the first screwing of the sealing plug on the neck part after breaking of the frangible elements, the tamper-evident ring at a distance from the fixing skirt.
  • the insertion opening is oriented towards the fixing part.
