TAMPER INDICATING CLOSURE WITH FOLDABLE TAB

摘要

A tamper indicating closure (20) includes a top wall (22) and a skirt (24) depending from the top wall. A tamper indicating band (30) is connected to the skirt along a frangible line (28). The tamper indicating band includes a ring (32) and at least one tab (34), the at least one tab having a bi-pair of extending members (36) angled toward one another and connected by a transverse member (38). The shape of the tab allows it be molded in a downward orientation and later folded to a stable, upward orientation without reheating or otherwise resetting the tab. The tab also includes a tab extension (34a) arranged on at least one of the transverse member (38) and at least one extending member (36) or at least one tab (34) and extending in a direction of extension of the extending members from at least one tab (34), the tab extension configured to engage at least one container profile (16).
