Patent ID: 7775400

Claim:
A rotatable, reclosable closure ( 1 ) comprising: a base body ( 2 ) coupled to a closing cap ( 3 ), wherein the closing cap ( 3 ) is rotatably supported around a common axis of rotation (D) with respect to the base body ( 2 ), wherein the base body ( 2 ) includes an outer sleeve ( 2 a ) extending coaxially to the axis of rotation (D) and having a laterally projecting spout ( 2 b ), and wherein the closing cap ( 3 ) has an inner sleeve ( 3 a ) extending coaxially to the axis of rotation D, and wherein the inner sleeve ( 3 a ) is disposed inside the outer sleeve ( 2 a ), and wherein the inner and outer sleeves ( 3 a , 2 a ) are configured such that the closure ( 1 ) has a first rotary position (R 1 ) in which an inner space of the outer sleeve ( 2 a ) opening into the spout ( 2 b ) is sealed by the inner sleeve ( 3 a ), and wherein the closure ( 1 ) has a second rotary position (R 2 ) in which the inner sleeve ( 3 a ) at least partly frees the inner space of the outer sleeve ( 2 a ) toward the spout ( 2 b ), and wherein the closing cap ( 3 ) has an outer jacket ( 3 c ) extending outside the outer sleeve ( 2 a ) in the direction of the axis of rotation (D) and having an opening ( 3 d ), wherein the outer jacket ( 3 c ) is disposed above the spout ( 2 b ) and configured to cover the spout ( 2 b ) in the first rotary position (R 1 ), and wherein the opening ( 3 d ) is disposed above the spout ( 2 b ) and configured to allow access from the outside in the second rotary position (R 2 ), and wherein the spout ( 2 b ) is configured to extend at an acute angle (α) with respect to the axis of rotation (D).
