Abstract:
A combination of a closing element ( 28 ) and a receiving structure ( 24 ) is provided wherein the closing element ( 28 ) and receiving structure ( 24 ) are in an initially assembled orientation which prevents, but which can be subsequently operated to permit, communication through the receiving structure ( 24 ). The receiving structure ( 24 ) includes at least one laterally projecting shear member ( 40 ) and a spout ( 30 ) defining (A) an access passage ( 32 ). The closing element ( 28 ) has an aperture ( 78 ) for receiving a shear member ( 40 ) of the receiving structure ( 24 ). At least one frangible bridge ( 78 ) extends across a portion of the aperture ( 74 ) for being severed by the shear member ( 40 ) during relative rotation between the closing element ( 28 ) and the receiving structure ( 24 ).

Claim (Index 14):
A combination of a closing element and a receiving structure which together in an initially assembled orientation prevent, but can be subsequently operated to permit, communication through the receiving structure, comprising:\n said receiving structure that includes\n (A) at least one laterally projecting shear member; and \n (B) a spout defining an access passage; and \n said closing element having\n (A) an open end into which said receiving structure spout extends to accommodate relative rotation between said closing element and said receiving structure; \n (B) an aperture for initially receiving said shear member when said closing element and receiving structure are in said initially assembled orientation; and \n (C) at least one frangible bridge extending across a portion of said aperture for being severed by said shear member during relative rotation between said closing element and receiving structure; and \n wherein said at least one frangible bridge has oppositely facing sides that each has a concave configuration.
