- this or these abutments 34 form a hard point around which the tilting is carried out to pass towards the locking configuration.
- the part 341 has a straight shape substantially perpendicular to the tongue 29.
- the straight shape has a first end located on the upper surface of the tongue 29 which is directed towards the outside of the cylindrical wall 3 and a second free end.
- Part 342 has a rounded shape. The rounded shape joining the upper surface of the tongue 29 and the second free end of the part 341.
- the passage to the blocking configuration is effected by sliding the shoulder 35 against the part 342.
- the rounded shape of the part 342 facilitates the sliding. This sliding causes a biasing of the hinge 18 by the approach of the free end of the tongue 29 towards the inside of the stopper 1.
- the shoulder 35 reaches the second free end of the part 341
- the free end of the tab 29 moves away from the inside of the stopper 1 thanks to the elasticity of the hinge 18.
- the two arms 22 then allow the support of the part 341 against the shoulder 35.
- the elongated shape of the stop or stops 34 has a longitudinal axis forming a non-zero angle with the longitudinal axis 4.
- the figure 9 shows two stops 34 whose elongated shapes move apart symmetrically as one approaches the hinge 18 at a non-zero angle with respect to the longitudinal axis 4.
- the stopper 1 can further comprise a cylindrical internal sealing skirt 31 carried by the bottom 6 and configured to penetrate into the neck 11 of the container 2 when screwing the cylindrical wall 3 towards the closed position.
- the cylindrical skirt 31 has a longitudinal axis or cylinder axis coinciding with the longitudinal axis 4 of the cylindrical wall 3.
- the bottom 6 of the stopper 1 is arranged so that the free end of the neck 11 abuts against the bottom 6 of the stopper 1 when the cylindrical wall is in the closed position.
- the part of the bottom 6 which is located in correspondence with the cylindrical skirt 31 is externally raised to increase the external surface of the stopper 1.
- the cavity delimited by the cylindrical skirt 31 and the cavity generated by the external raising of the base 6 s 'adding to form a single large, smooth-walled cavity.
- a circular recess is formed between the raised part and the non-raised part of the bottom 6.
- the free end of the neck 11 of the container abuts against the non-raised part of the bottom 6, when the cylindrical wall is in the closed position. This ensures that the cap 1 is leaktight.
- the end 16 connecting the tab 15 to the cylindrical wall 3 may be at a height less than or equal to a height located at the level of the bottom 6 of the stopper 1 against which the free end of the neck 11 of the container 2 comes into abutment, when the cylindrical wall 3 is in the closed position.
- the cylindrical skirt 31 comprises a free edge having a notch 32 facing the tongue 15.
- This notch 32 makes it possible to facilitate the release of the cylindrical wall 3 from the neck 11 of the container 2 after its unscrewing. It also makes it possible to facilitate the positioning of the cylindrical wall 3 on the neck 11 of the container 2 before the cylindrical wall 3 is screwed on the neck 11.
- the cylindrical wall 3 may have an external surface comprising gripping reliefs 33.
- the gripping reliefs correspond to diametral fins regularly distributed over the external surface of the cylindrical wall 3.
- the safety ring 12 comprises an outer circular part and an inner circular part.
- the outer circular part comes by extending the cylindrical wall 3.
- the inner circular part is turned over with respect to the outer circular part inside the safety ring 12.
- the safety ring 12 is thus intended to be retained at the neck 11. by the cooperation of the internal circular part with the retaining element 13.
- the cap can be used for any container 2 having a screw neck 11.
- the stopper 1 can also have a diameter suitable for any neck 11 of a screw container. The diameter of the stopper 1 can therefore be equal to any diameter in order to be able to be used on any diameter of the neck 11 screwed onto a container 2.
- the stopper 1 can be used for a container 2 which can contain any type of liquid or drink.
- the container 2 can be a container 2 which can contain a flat liquid, a gaseous liquid, a fruit juice, milk, etc.
- the different parts of the stopper 1, such as the cylindrical wall 3, the bottom 6, the cylindrical skirt 31, the thread 9 can be sized according to the liquid or the drink intended to be contained in the container 2. For example, these different parts can be more or less thick. Likewise, the thread 9 may have more or less tight and / or more or less thick threads. Likewise, the threads of the thread 9 may have interruptions depending on the liquid or the drink intended to be contained in the container 2.
