  • Patent number: 10549883
    Abstract: A protective lid for containers, having an upper lid provided for covering the upper part of the container, and a hinge section provided for exerting an angular movement of the upper lid in relation to the upper face of the container, the hinge section having at least one connecting portion with a contact surface provided for being adhered by an adhesive material to the lateral wall of the container. The contact surface has an arched trajectory with a radius that is substantially equal to the bend radius of the lateral wall of the container, and with a length that is less than the circumferential length of the lateral wall of the container. In this way, the protective lid is not provided with a lower ring for securing same to the container, thereby simplifying the production and assembly process.
