Thus, the end consumer Easily distinguish whether any unauthorized access to the contents inside the bottle has occurred before will be able to.

In general, the lid mechanism of alcohol bottles; inner thread that engages (attaches) the corresponding threaded part of the bottle neck surface of the pourer, a lid with inner threads to match the outer threads of the pourer, and a bottle neck and lid It contains an enveloping outer lining. Outer liner, top liner portion separated by a parting line, and tubular It consists of the lower lining part.

Peripheral extensions on top surface of caps tamper for bottles with aluminum liner liner It is already used as an anti-feature. For re-closing the lid mechanism on the pourer The circumferential protrusions, while firmly pressurized on the overcoat liner, It causes deformation of the aluminum coating liner (31.5) at the points where it comes into contact with the peripheral extensions. is happening. However, through the circumferential protrusions on the upper surface of the cover, the aluminum cladding liner The anti-tamper feature used for the cover mechanism with Cover mechanisms with plastic outer lining due to the upper wall thickness greater than the cannot be applied directly. Side-section, top, bottom and perspective views of traditional plastic outer liner are given in figures 7a, 7b, ?c and 7d, respectively. A picture showing the internal structure of the traditional plastic outer liner. transparent perspective view is given in figure 8a.

The upper wall thickness of the plastic outer liner is greater than the upper wall thickness of the aluminum coating liner. Since the pressure force required to deform the plastic material, it will deform the aluminum material. It is much more than the pressure force required to do it. By the person trying to reseal the bottle Since it is not possible to manage (increase) the applied closing torque, the upper wall of the plastic outer lining thickness should be reduced.

The present invention is the trajectory corresponding to the circumferential protrusions (21.2) on the flat top (21) of the cover (20). First unauthorized reclosing, thanks to the reduced top wall thickness of the plastic outer liner (30) present throughout permanent deformation (31.5) on the upper surface (31.1) of the plastic outer liner (30) during it provides.

The safety protrusions (22.1) with the elastic flap (22.2) structure are adjusted to the initial position of the cover (20) before the first opening. These are the tools used to prevent it from closing completely. Before the first opening, the safety ledges The ends (22.1) are held in the stretched position at the separating corner (11.2) as shown in figure 6a. Figure 6a, shows a section view of the cover mechanism (1) before the first opening. Cover (20) for the first time when opened, the safety tabs (22.1) are released from their tensioning positions as shown in figure 6b. they are bent radially into the cover (20). Said bending is caused by the ends of the safety protrusions (22.1). causes a radial displacement. Thus, after the first opening of the cover (20), the safety protrusions (22.1) into the annular abutment groove (11.1) whose ends are connected to the structure of the drip-free lip (11) is based on. Thus, in the closed position of the cover mechanism (1) after the first opening, the plastic outer lining The upper lining part (31) and the tubular lower lining part (32) cannot be combined again. This is the first opening in the next closed position, between the upper liner section (31) and the tubular lower liner section (32) in figure 6b. provides an anti-tamper space (34) as shown. The mentioned anti-tamper The gap (34) allows the end consumer to recognize if the bottle has been previously opened by unauthorized persons.
