Abstract: A tab for use with a container includes a rigid lever part, wherein the rigid lever is connectable to a tear part of the container and an operating part for operating the lever part. The operating part is movably connected to the lever part, such that the operating part can be moved out of the plane of the rigid lever part.

Abstract: The invention relates to an easy opening closure, comprising a closure having a folding rim and a circumferential score line having a score residual (t) the thickness of the closure in the score line, enclosing a removable central closure part; and a tab connected to the central closure part, which score line has a pop zone in which the tap pops a section of the central closure along the score line and the pop zone comprising a pop ignition zone adjacent to the tab, in clock-wise and anti-clock-wise direction subsequent tear zones in which using the tab the central closure part is torn off from the closure along the score line and eventually looses from the closure, wherein the tear zones comprise each a tear ignition zone adjacent the respective pop zone, and wherein the score residual (t) the tear ignition zones is reduced relative to the score residual in the pop ignition zone, to a container, provided with such easy opening closure and to an apparatus for producing the same.
