Patent ID: 8453858

Claim:
Closure cap for closing containers, comprising a cap mantle, a circular head portion with a central axis and a pivoting member, in which, starting from the head portion, the cap mantle extends in the same general direction as the central axis, and in which, the cap mantle has a ripping-open-section extending circumferentially with respect to the central axis, and in which, the pivoting member is attached to the ripping-open-section and extends in the same general direction as the central axis, and in which, towards the head portion, the ripping-open-section comprises a thin region, which extends circumferentially with respect to the central axis and which forms a rotational axis between the pivoting member and the head portion, and in which, the pivoting member comprises a stop member, which extends in the same general direction as the central axis and projects past the rotational axis, and in which, the form of the stop member and its relative, spaced position with respect to the head portion are such that pivoting of the pivoting member around the rotational axis causes the stop member to lie against the outer surface of the head portion.
