发明名称 Closure for container
摘要 A closure is provided for use in covering an opening in a container and engaging a peripheral rim defining the opening. The closure includes a body for covering the container opening and a plurality of projecting portions that extend from a periphery of the body. The projecting portions are spaced from one another around the periphery of the body, with each formed to surround a portion of the container rim. A ring is connected to the projecting portions and surrounds the container rim. A plurality of retaining fingers are provided, with each fingers spaced from one another and interleaved within the spacing between adjacent projecting portions. The fingers project inwardly from the ring and include a projected end for engagement with the container rim. The projected ends of the fingers include a varied or undulating surface.

主权项 1. A closure for use in covering container discharge, the discharge surrounded by a peripheral rim having an outwardly projecting peripheral bead, the closure comprising: a body adapted to cover the discharge; a plurality of projecting portions extending from a periphery of the body, the projecting portions spaced from one another around the periphery, each projecting portion adapted to engage a portion of the container rim and a corresponding portion of the bead; a ring connected to the plurality of projecting portions, the ring adapted to surround container rim and being spaced therefrom; and a plurality of retaining fingers, the fingers spaced from one another and interleaved within the spacing between adjacent projecting portions, the fingers projecting inwardly from the ring and each forming a projected end, each of the projected ends of the fingers having an end surface formed thereon, the end surface of the projected end of each of the fingers having a circumferential width and adapted to engage the bead associated with the container rim, and a plurality of ridges formed on the end surface of the projected end of each finger, each of the ridges within the plurality extending along the circumferential width of the projected end of the finger, and the plurality of ridges forming an undulating surface on the projected end of each of the fingers with the direction of the undulating surface being oblique to the direction of the extension of the ridges, wherein the engagement of the fingers with the bead is visible through the spacing between the projecting portions, andwherein the fingers are removed along with the ring upon a frangible disconnection of the ring from the projecting portions.
