Abstract:
A closing cover (8) for a receptacle comprising a cylindrical body (1), a bottom (2) and a crimped top (4) in which an opening (6) smaller than the said top is formed by means of a frangible closing device (5) that is pushed inside the receptacle by a pulling tab (7) acting as a lever being retained in the center and above the top (4) by a rivet (9), the cover (8) which is installed removably on the pulling tab (7) before and after opening (6) of the receptacle, to form a mobile tab pivoting around the rivet (9) on the upper part of the top (4) fitting firstly on the pulling tab (7) and secondly, by an external peripheral means, clipping around a peripheral crimping hem (12) on the top (4) of the receptacle body (1), the hem (12) acting as an external rail for circular displacement of the cover (8) which is moved in a circular manner, characterized in that the external peripheral means comprise two resilient connecting tabs (13, 14), approximately in the median horizontal plane (P) of the cover (8) and symmetrically located on each side of the longitudinal axis of symmetry S of the said cover (8) to form a space (15) in which a stud (16), projecting from a horizontal strip (17) connecting the free mold removal ends of the two tabs (13, 14) extends from the inner edge (18) of the said strip (17) towards the lower part of the hem (12) until coming into contact with the side wall (3) of the receptacle, in order to work in cooperation with the two resilient connecting tabs (13, 14) to lock and provide guidance around the hem (12) during circular displacements of the cover (8).
