See full text

A plug for closing an aperture in a plug receiving member has a main body with a screw thread on an end portion thereof operable to cooperate with a screw thread adjacent to the aperture in the plug receiving member to secure the plug thereto in an aperture closing manner, and a series of peripherally spaced laterally resilient fingers extending from the end portion of the main body in a direction away from the main body. The fingers having free end portions remote from the end portion of the main body with laterally outer surfaces shaped to resiliently engage the periphery of the aperture in the plug receiving member to retain the plug in assembly therewith when the plug security means is not engaged with the plug receiving member. The laterally outer surfaces of the fingers are also shaped to resiliently engage the periphery of the aperture in the plug receiving member to retain the plug in an open position whereby liquid can pass through the aperture and between the fingers.
