<p>A closure (10) with a snap type hinge cap comprising a first part (11) adapted to interengage with the open neck of a container, a second part (12) forming a cap and an integral hinge (13) interconnecting the first part (11) and second part (12). Each of the parts (11,12) comprises a base wall (14,20) and a peripheral skirt (15,21). A pair of hinged straps (25) extend from the skirts (15,21) on opposite side of said integral hinge (13). The ends of the straps (25) are substantially straight and lie in substantially the same plane when the first part (11) and second part (12) are in fully open position. Each strap (25) has a portion intermediate the ends which extends out of the plane. Each strap (25) is untensioned when the first part (11) and second part (12) are in fully open position. The intermediate portions of the straps (25) extend axially in one direction. In one form, the intermediate portions of the straps (25) are curved in cross section. In another form, the intermediate portions of the straps (25) are V-shaped in cross section. </p> |
