Patent ID: 8011535

Claim:
A process for closing a fill passageway into a container, the process comprising the steps of providing a container having an interior region and a neck finish coupled to the container and formed to include a wide-mouth opening providing a fill passageway communicating with the interior region of the container, coupling a closure cap to a pour spout formed to include a fluid-discharge outlet to establish a preassembled closure unit wherein the closure cap covers the fluid-discharge outlet of the pour spout, discharging a fluid material through the wide-mouth opening of the neck finish into the interior region of the container, mounting the preassembled closure unit to the neck finish, and anchoring the pour spout in a stationary anchored position on the neck finish so that the pour spout will remain in its stationary anchored position and is blocked by a lug from rotating clockwise and from rotating counterclockwise but without blocking later removal of the closure cap from the pour spout by a consumer to expose the fluid-discharge outlet of the pour spout to permit discharge of fluid material from the interior region of the container through the exposed fluid-discharge outlet while the pour spout remains in the stationary anchored position on the neck finish.
