Abstract:
The invention relates to a fillable twist cap closure for receiving and film-sealing a liquid or pourable filling in the interior of the closure and for emptying out the filling purely by rotating the twist cap ( 1 ). The closure consist of a receiving part ( 3 ) which is screwed onto the threaded connection of a container and which comprises a cylinder ( 7 ) that is open at the bottom, said cylinder ( 7 ) being film-sealed at the bottom, and a cup ( 2 ) that can be introduced headfirst into the cylinder ( 7 ). All plastic parts ( 1 - 3 ) are made of a steam-absorbing polymer, and piercing and cutting teeth ( 5 ) which extend in the axial direction are molded on the lower edge of the cup ( 2 ). Guide means ( 9, 10, 28 ) on the outside of the cup ( 2 ) interact with guide means ( 8, 12 ) on the twist cap ( 1 ). When the twist cap ( 1 ) is rotated, an axial movement of the cup ( 2 ) is first produced in order to pierce the film ( 33 ) on the receiving part ( 3 ). Upon a further rotation, a purely horizontal rotation is then produced in order to cut open the film ( 33 ) along the film circumference by less than 360°. Finally, the cup ( 2 ) is moved again axially downwards in order to fold open the cut film ( 33 ), whereby the contents of the cup fall downwards.

Claim (Index 1):
A fillable cap closure for receiving and film-sealing a liquid or pourable filling in the interior thereof and for emptying by purely rotating the cap ( 1 ), consisting of a receiving part ( 3 ) which can be screwed onto the threaded connection piece of a container and has a cylinder ( 7 ) which is open at the bottom, wherein the cylinder ( 7 ) is film-sealed at the bottom, and a cup ( 2 ) which can be inserted headfirst into said cylinder ( 7 ), comprising at the edge thereof at least one piercing and cutting tooth ( 5 ) which extends over said edge in the axial direction, characterised in that there are guide means ( 9 ,  10 ,  28 ) in the form of two depressions ( 9 ) which are opposite one another on the outer wall of the cup ( 2 ) and initially opposite the base thereof, said depressions each forming an oblique surface ( 27 ) on the end facing away from the base of the cup, and that the twist cap ( 1 ) is provided with drivers ( 8 ) which engage in said depressions ( 9 ) on the cup ( 2 ) to open and pivot down the film by means of purely rotating the cap, as a result of which, by a first rotation the drivers ( 8 ) can drive onto the oblique surfaces ( 27 ) and in this manner the axial displacement of the cup ( 2 ) downwards is brought about to pierce through the film ( 33 ), then by means of further horizontally rotating the twist cap ( 1 ), in that the drivers ( 8 ) thereof rotate the cup by abutting the lateral surfaces of the depressions ( 9 ), the film ( 33 ) of said cup can thus be cut open along the circumference thereof by less than 360\u00b0, and by means of subsequently further purely rotating the cap, another axial displacement of the cup ( 2 ) downwards to fold down the cut-out film ( 33 ) is brought about by means of the ribs ( 10 ) that extend axially on the outer wall of the cup ( 2 ) moving down the guide rib ( 24 ) that extends at an oblique angle on the inner wall of the cylinder ( 7 ).
