Title: Screw-type closure systems with magnetic feature
Inventor: JACOB CHRISTOPHE
IPC: B65D43/02
Filed: 2016-08-29
Granted: 2019-03-07
Abstract: A closure-container system comprising a screw-threaded inner cap that mounts to a screw threaded container, and an overshell that is enabled to rotate and translate relative to the inner cap. As the overshell rotates relative to the inner cap, one or more metallic magnets located in the overshell pull the cap toward one or more metallic elements associated with the container. The overshell and container make direct contact, so there is no unsightly gap. Also, the contact produces a satisfying, reassuring metallic "click" sound, accompanied by a luxurious tactile sensation that, together, dispel the silent ennui normally associated with rotating closures.
