Patent ID: 8702333

Claim:
A quick-fastening cosmetic applicator closure comprising: a cap-side closure member and a container-side closure member which are twisted relative to one another in order to fix an applicator on a storage container associated with the applicator; a multi-start, short threaded portion provided on at least one of the closure members, whose threads are designed in such a way that the threads protrude like a cantilever beam, and the two closure members can be brought from a position in which the threads of the short threaded portion grip for the first time into a fully closed position with a rotary movement of less than or equal to a ⅜ rotation relative to one another; and additional retaining elements that hold the two closure members firmly against each other in addition to thread friction that is present anyway, once the two closure members have reached their fully closed position, wherein the additional retaining elements are formed by at least one latching projection and at least one latching depression that come into engagement in a positive fit as soon as the closure members have reached their fully closed position.
