  • Publication number: 20240101298
    Abstract: A container for liquids, specifically a neck designed to be axially coupled to the gland of a container, typically made of lightweight plastic. The neck is structured in a lower section and an upper section, having several components: a lower collar that serves as a support, followed by a support flange and a cylindrical part that incorporates both lower and upper transitions, as well as an intermediate section. The terminal part of the neck is an upper washer designed to receive a sealing plug. This washer includes a lower ring, a straight portion and an upper ring. The complete design ensures an effective threaded engagement with the sealing plug, thus optimizing the functionality of the container.
