Publication number: 20050230342Abstract: A closing element of plastic for beverage containers (1) comprises a main body (2) with a circular-cylindrical shape defined by an upper surface (3) and a lower annular liner (4) made in a single piece to enclose an end portion of the container (1). The closing element further comprises a lateral portion having a pair of weakened and/or tear lines (9a, 9b) extending from the free edge (4a) of the annular liner (4) for a length equal to a third dimension ©. The two lines (9a, 9b) are separated, at their end sections, by a first dimension (A) and, at the free edge (4a), by a second dimension (B). The lateral portion (10) defined by the pair of lines (9a, 9b) is acted upon by a tab (11) associated with the annular liner (4) and designed to separate the closing element from the neck (6) so as to open the container.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2002Publication date: October 20, 2005Inventors: Enrico Folchini, Steven White
