Abstract

A pilferproof closure comprises a cap (1) adapted for screw-threaded connection with the container or with, for example, a non-refillable fitment (11) affixed thereto, a frangible ring (30) axially movable with the cap on the container or fitment, and means formed on the ring and on the container or fitment which come into engagement during removal of the cap from the container or fitment and permit complete removal of the cap only after fracture of the frangible ring. The frangible ring may consist of an upper annular ring (31) integrally attached to a lower annular ring (32) through bridges (33), the upward extensions of which form buttresses (34) which extend radially outwardly of the upper annulus (31). The cap (1) cannot be removed unless the ring (30) is first fractured.
