Patent number: 9845180Abstract: A closure assembly includes a valve for containing a substance in a squeeze bottle, a multi-layer material for providing a valve for such a closure assembly, a method for providing such a multi-layer material and a method for providing such a closure assembly. The closure assembly includes a closure cap with a cap part and a body part, a valve arranged in the body part of the closure cap, and an induction element. The induction element is arranged in the closure cap body part for induction sealing a loop shaped peripheral section of the valve to a loop shaped attachment surface of the closure cap body part.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2014Date of Patent: December 19, 2017Assignee: PLASTICUM NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Albertus Rap, Lenny Marita Ellenkamp-Van Olst, Willem Ramon, Sebastiaan Wilhelmus Josephus Den Boer, Shi Ming Pun

Patent number: 9511906Abstract: A tamper-evident closure includes a tamper-evident strip connected with frangible connection points to a shoulder portion of a closure body before first time opening of the closure. In the closed position of a lid, a skirt portion of the lid is located behind the tamper-evident strip. The skirt portion includes locking lugs that protrude from the outer skirt surface towards the front and in the closed position of the lid engage an underside of the tamper-evident strip, such that upon a first-time opening the lid is only movable to the open position when the tamper-evident strip is permanently removed by breaking the frangible connecting points. The tamper-evident strip has bent end portions with frangible connection points that are bent towards the skirt portion, whereby a virtual straight line through these frangible connection points, seen from the front, lies behind a virtual straight line through the other frangible connection points.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2015Date of Patent: December 6, 2016Assignee: PLASTICUM NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Jan van Alfen, Shi Ming Pun, Sebastiaan Wilhelmus Josephus den Boer, Gerrit Jan Stegeman

Patent number: 9409680Abstract: A tamper-evident dispensing closure includes a body adapted to be attached to a container. The container has a shoulder portion surrounding a dispensing opening. The closure body has a peripheral wall and a top wall which extends over one end of the peripheral wall, such that the corresponding end of the body is closed off by the top wall and an opposite end of the body is open. The open end is in use placed over the shoulder portion of the container. The top wall is provided with a dispensing passage which in use is in line with the dispensing opening of the container. The peripheral wall is provided with tamper-evident means, which cause the peripheral wall to rupture when the closure is removed from the container, thereby indicating tampering.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2012Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: Plasticum Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Jan van Alfen, Shi Ming Pun, Sebastiaan Wilhelmus Josephus den Boer, Gerrit Jan Stegeman

Patent number: 9090386Abstract: A tamper-evident dispensing closure includes a body adapted to be attached to a container and a pivotable lid which is hingedly attached to the body. A tamper-evident strip is located within the contour of the body and attached to the body by means of predetermined frangible connecting points. The tamper-evident strip is engaged or engageable by at least one locking member provided on a skirt portion of the lid, such that the lid is only pivotable to the open position when the tamper-evident strip is permanently removed. The body and the pivotable lid in the closed position define a recess in which the tamper-evident strip is received in a countersunk manner. The recess has a height which essentially corresponds to the height of the tamper evident strip such that the edges of the tamper-evident strip are essentially unreachable.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2012Date of Patent: July 28, 2015Assignee: PLASTICUM NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Jan van Alfen, Shi Ming Pun, Sebastiaan Wilhelmus Josephus den Boer, Gerrit Jan Stegeman
