  • Fitment for a flexible pouch with child-safety properties
    Publication number: 20040238564
    Abstract: A plastic fitment with child-safe properties for attachment to a container component of film-like plastic material, includes a tubular body portion defining a through passage having axially spaced ends. A plurality of welding ribs is formed integrally on the outer periphery of the body portion near one axial end of the through passage. Furthermore, a cap member is integrally formed on the body portion near the other axial end, said cap member sealing the through passage at one end. The cap member is attached to the body portion through a weakened portion that is adapted to break when a rotational force is exerted by hand on the cap member. Radially outwardly projecting, wing-like blades are formed on the cap member at diametrically opposite positions thereof so that a person can place his fingers thereon in order to apply the rotational force to the cap member.
