  • Patent number: 4807787
    Abstract: An easy-open/reclosure device intended to be attached to the top lid of a container having an upstanding peripheral rim. The device includes a base portion and a moveable portion preferably hingedly attached thereto. The base portion has a dispensing aperture, a depending flange encircling the aperture, and a deformable pouring lip/drain surface. The moveable portion has a depending plug member which is shaped complementary to the base portion's aperture for reclosing the container. When the device is applied to the container, the base portion's depending flange is pushed through a prescored or pre-cut aperture in the container's top lid. In applying the device to the container, the container's peripheral rim bends the base portion's deformable pouring lip/drain surface upward and inward such that it assumes an inclined, trough-shaped configuration.
