Alternatively, or additionally, during an operation of initial opening of the container, the lip portion circumferential 265 'contracts or mounts below the first edge circumferential 270 ', and then recedes or expands to substantially its initial circumferential position, in such a way which is located radially in front of the first edge circumferential 270 '. This action, or these actions, places (n) the circumferential lip portion 265 'longitudinally between the first and second circumferential edges 270 ', 275' of a non-obstructive form, so that when container 215 'returns to be closed by reapplying the closure member 235 ', the first and second outer sleeves 225 ', 230' are separated from one another by the circumferential lip portion 265 ', located between them.

With this provision, after the new closure, the first and second circumferential edges 270 ', 275' are no longer adjacent but are separated, thus leaving discovered a gap or gap comprising substantially the groove 260 'and the lip portion 265', between the first and second circumferential edges 270 ', 275'. This visual indicator shows that the closure set 5 '(and container 215') has been opened and closed again, and, for therefore, it provides means that evidence undue manipulation. Similar means may be arranged in the closure assembly 5 of the Figure 1.

The first circumferential edge 270 'of the first outer sleeve 225 'may, in a modification, provide a first circumferential ring portion, arranged in the first outer sleeve 225 ', adjacent to the first circumferential edge 270 ', and, in the same way, the second circumferential edge 275' of the second outer sleeve 230 'can provide a second circumferential ring portion, arranged in the second sleeve outer 230 'adjacent to the second circumferential edge 275'.

The first and second sleeves 225 ', 230' have been made of any appropriate material, for example, a metal or A metal based material. In this case, the metal comprises substantially aluminum or an alloy thereof, for example, laminated aluminum Aluminum provides a good medium for application of printing pigments, inks, paints or the like, such that the first and second outer sleeves 225 ', 230 'can carry messages, logos, images, names and / or other information.

The outlet opening 300 'is substantially annular and the cap 235' carries, at an end 305 'facing inwardly, an annular seal 310 which can be removably received within the annular outlet opening 300'. The annular outlet opening 300 'defines a circumferential pouring lip
301 '.

The second outer sleeve 330 'is intended to receive the cap 235 '. Cap 235 'is generally received in a interference or tight interposition adjustment with the second outer sleeve 230 ', although it can be rotated with respect to the second outer sleeve 235 'with the application of force enough. For example, when closing the closing set 5, when the circumferential lip portion 265 'contacts butt with the first circumferential edge 270 ', an additional movement for the new closing (for example, the turn clockwise of the second outer sleeve 225 ') may cause the member of closure 235 'remain stationary and that the outer sleeve 225' turn with respect to it. In addition, the second edge circumferential 265 'keeps the second outer sleeve 230' in a longitudinal positional relationship with the closure member 235 '.

The exit opening device 295 'for pouring has been manufactured, in this embodiment, in one piece with the sleeve 220 'for example, by injection molding.

The non-refillable device 290 'comprises additionally a valve seat body 315 'which is liable to be received, at least partially, within minus a part of the neck portion 211 'of the container 215', of such that the valve seat body 315 'is surrounded, at less partially, by the sleeve 220 '.

This situation guarantees that, when container 215 'is opened initially by the relative torsion between the plug 235 'and the cuff 220 ', the second circumferential edge 275' of the second outer sleeve 230 'remains inside the groove. 260 ' provided on cap 235 ', and the first edge circumferential 270 'of the first outer sleeve 225' can be made  move circumferentially, in a progressive and elastic way,  out until out of the groove 260 'arranged in the cap 235 ', as cap 235' is removed and moves away from 295 'outlet opening device for pouring and serving of the first outer sleeve 225 '. Alternatively or additional, as mentioned above, the portion of 265 'circumferential lip can move circumferentially inward in a progressive and elastic way. By deleting the contact between the plug 235 'and the first circumferential edge 270' of the first outer sleeve 225 ', the first circumferential edge 270' retracts to a substantially reduced circumference (by example, its initial circumference), such that the resulting circumference is smaller than that of a portion of the cap which is located below the groove 260 ', for example, the 265 'circumferential lip portion.

When the cap 235 'is reapplied on the exit opening device 295 'for pouring, a stop position when the circumferential lip portion 265 'of cap 235' rests, sits or contacts butt with the first circumferential edge 270 'of the first outer sleeve 225', thereby preventing the cap 235 'from being returned to its position Initial departure (unopened). Consequently, it still exists a gap or longitudinal gap (not shown) between the first and second outer sleeves 225 ', 230', so a circumferential part of the cap 235 'is exposed, the which includes at least part of the circumferential lip portion 265 'that was initially enclosed or encompassed within of the first outer sleeve 225 '. There is also a gap additional (not shown) between a bottom edge of the cap 235 'and an initial seating surface 320 'of the plug 235', belonging to the outlet opening device 295 'for spill.
