  • Patent number: 6766917
    Abstract: A closure having an integrally formed hook member that is received in a hook shaped recess on the upper surface of the closure when the hook member is in its stowed position. Release of the hook member is accomplished by applying an upward force on a release tab of the hook member permitting the hook member to spring into its operative position through a living hinge connection with the main body of the closure. The subject matter finds particular usefulness with the bottling industry, however, there are many other applications where it is desirable to provide suspension of its related container when not in use. The design of the closure is such that it can readily be accommodated by bottling machinery presently used in the bottling industry without any major modifications required.
