  • the articulation device comprises one or more blades forming a hinge which connect the stopper to the base.
  • the outer peripheral skirt of the stopper has indented portions and the slats each join the peripheral skirt of the stopper at the level from the upper edge of one of said indented portions so that the slats extend above the lower edge of the outer peripheral skirt of the cap.
