Abstract

See full text

A tamper-evident closure includes a tamper-evident strip connected with frangible connection points to a shoulder portion of a closure body before first time opening of the closure. In the closed position of a lid, a skirt portion of the lid is located behind the tamper-evident strip. The skirt portion includes locking lugs that protrude from the outer skirt surface towards the front and in the closed position of the lid engage an underside of the tamper-evident strip, such that upon a first-time opening the lid is only movable to the open position when the tamper-evident strip is permanently removed by breaking the frangible connecting points. The tamper-evident strip has bent end portions with frangible connection points that are bent towards the skirt portion, whereby a virtual straight line through these frangible connection points, seen from the front, lies behind a virtual straight line through the other frangible connection points.
