     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention will be fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings. 
     It is to be understood, however, that the present invention would not be limited by no means to the parts, arrangements and material makers that are not specifically described, and any change to the materials, variations, sizes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirits and scope described in the present invention. 
     Referring to  FIGS. 1 to 7 , it is shown a perspective view and the parts of the container lid in accordance with the present invention wherein the lid of the container/bottle in accordance with the present invention comprises two parts, an upper lid ( 1 ) and a lower lid ( 2 ) that is associated with the circular upper lid ( 1 ) by a connecting part ( 5 ) made of thin material, and the connecting part ( 5 ) together with the puller grip ( 4 ) which is hollow at its center ( 3 ) with the shape of water droplet, are joined with the middle part of lower body ( 2 ) of the container lid. 
     Therefore the lower part ( 2 ) is also circular and comprises the upper part of the puller grip ( 4 ). As it can been seen on the figures the puller grip ( 4 ) extends beyond the lower edge of the bottom part ( 2 ). 
     The inside of container lid is equipped with a seal ( 6 ) that serves to prevent leakage. 
     The container lid in accordance with the present invention will be mounted to a bottle in such a way that the lid is properly placed on the bottle orifice and subsequently is pressed downward on the bottle, so the lid will be associated with the orifice of the bottle neck through the hook ( 8 ) tightly and will not leak because the inner part of container lid has been equipped with seal ( 6 ). 
     The container lid in accordance with the present invention is made by multi-injection process technology that produces the container lid with a multi-colors and can utilize multi-materials as High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and low density polyethylene (LDPE) or mixture of HDPE and LDPE with a very good quality so as to produce a lid of container/bottle that can be relied upon during its use. 
     In particular with a color representation of the lid it would be clear that in the depicted embodiment the lid is made of two different materials having two different colors. From the cross-section view of  FIG. 7 , the two different materials appear from the hatching. 
     The upper lid ( 1 ) has an external layer of a first material which is Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and an inner layer of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). For example the LDPE could be colored in white and the HDPE in dark blue. Since the cap is manufactured by a multi-injection process, in fact a bi-injection process for the exemplary embodiment, the two layers are stuck together. Some apertures, visible on  FIG. 2 , are made through the inner layer and filled with the first material in order guarantee their assembly. 
     As it could be also seen on  FIG. 7 , the connecting part ( 5 ) has an inner layer ( 5   b ) made of the second material (HDPE) and an external layer ( 5   a ) made of the second material (LDPE), the inner layer being thicker. 
     Still referring to  FIG. 7 , it should be noted that the connecting part is connected to the upper lid ( 1 ) by a thin upper web ( 5   d ) that clearly creates a weakness zone which would guide a tearing action. The upper web is mainly made of the second material (HDPE) but comprises short portions made of the first material (LDPE). These short portions appear with a rectangular shape on  FIGS. 4-6  and additionally in cross-section on  FIG. 7 . 
     The connecting part ( 5 ) has similarly a thin lower web ( 5   e ) forming a connection to the lower lid ( 2 ), but without portion made of the first material (LDPE). 
     The upper and lower web ( 5   d ,  5   e ) form a continuous connection between the upper and the lower lid ( 1 ,  2 ). That prevent the top part of the bottle, notably above the hook ( 8 ), to be soiled. Continuous web appear more advantageous against attempts to tamper the lid than frangible bridges, notably by welding them again. 
     Further ways to open the container lid in accordance with the present invention is by pulling the puller grip ( 4 ) forward and/or inserting a finger into the hole ( 3 ), and subsequently to pull it circularly around the container lid during the time of pulling action is applied, the connecting part ( 5 ) will be broken and the pulling action will be ended at a stopper part ( 7 ), thereby the container lid has been opened by breaking the connecting part ( 5 ) and the fluid inside the bottle can be poured. The stopper part is a circumferential portion between the upper and bottom lids ( 1 ,  2 ) which has the same thickness as them. 
     The container lid according to the present invention can be used only for a single usage because the connecting part has been broken, however it is still possible to use it furthermore even when the connecting part ( 5 ) has been broken because the upper lid ( 1 ) may also be retained to the edge of the bottle hole, but the safety is not guaranteed anymore because the connecting part ( 5 ) has been broken, so users, of course, know that the lid has been opened. The inventors realized that the use of two colors and of a multi-injection process improve substantially the anti-counterfeiting effect of the lid. First the users seem to detect more readily a defect in a two color lid. Secondly, attempts to weld or to glue a two colors plastic device tend to creates burrs and flashes easily viewable by the users. 
     The fact of using two materials (LDPE and HDPE) improves the operability and reliability of the lid. As known the LDPE is more resilient that the HDPE. This feature is used in a smart way in the design of the lid according the invention and is supposed to explain the satisfactory results obtained during tests. It is supposed that the bottom lid ( 2 ) made of HDPE is sufficiently rigid with that material to prevent elastic extension of its diameter to pass over the retaining means of the bottle. The HDPE also provide structural strength to the connecting part ( 5 ) and the upper lid ( 1 ). However the layer ( 5   a ) of LDPE is supposed to provide the connecting part ( 5 ) with a higher resistance to deformation and tensile stress. The same apply for the pulling grip ( 4 ) which is formed essentially of the first material (LDPE) on its outer face ( 4   a ) and has a thick layer of the second material ( 4   b ) on its rear face ( 4   b ). The double layers of bi-injected materials certainly improve the capability of these elements to be pulled without breaking. 
     A feature of the present invention is embodied on the pulling part ( 4 ) which is equipped with embossed lines so that if any pulling action is made by holding the pulling part ( 4 ) there will not be slippery and they provide comfort for pulling, and the pulling part ( 4 ) is also equipped with a hole ( 3 ) that allows to insert one&#39;s finger into the hole ( 3 ) and subsequently, to pulled it circularly so that one can easily open the container lid. 
     From the explanation above it is clear that the present invention applied by the inventors in the form of a container lid in accordance with the present invention is highly feasible for use by any people because it is simple and practical in use. 
     Accordingly, the present invention has been fully described in reference to the above drawings which are intended to best describe the subject of the present invention. The description and the drawings that accompany the present invention should not be construed as a limitation to the subject invention. All parts on the container lid in accordance with the present invention are designed to use high technology so that the system resulted is a bottle cap of an “anti-counterfeited” type and in use the present invention actually presents an improvement, especially on a container lid that can be used for all needs.
