  • Patent number: 4706855
    Abstract: There is provided, for a container having a cylindrical outlet, a one-piece deformable dispensing closure in the form of a cap including a circular end wall having a depending peripheral skirt for securing it to the outlet. The end wall includes a scoreline which defines a segment intersecting a portion of the end wall. A complex hollow seal, positioned and sized for insertion into the container outlet, depends from the inner surface of the end wall. The seal also includes a tapered external lip for forming a partially releasable seal with the internal surface of the container outlet. There is a dispensing opening through the end wall. When inward pressure is exerted on the outer surface of the end wall a portion of the end wall within the scoreline is moved inwardly, moving with it a portion of the seal and tapered lip which is in registration therewith.
