Abstract

A sealing device for bottles and containers, which comprises a teat ( 1 ) coupled to the neck ( 2 ) of a bottle and a sealing cap ( 3 ) coupled to said teat ( 1 ) and/or neck ( 2 ) of the bottle, wherein said cap ( 3 ) comprises a fold-back lid ( 3 b ) and wherein an insert ( 4 ) is over-injected on the cap ( 3 ) to form a hinge area ( 5 ), the material of said insert ( 4 ) being more flexible than the material of the cap ( 3 ), thereby improving the flexibility and resistance of the hinge ( 5 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A sealing device for bottles and containers, comprising a teat ( 1 ) which can be coupled to the neck ( 2 ) of a bottle and a closing cap ( 3 ) comprising a body ( 3   a ), a lid ( 3   b ) which can be folded back to allow access to the teat ( 1 ) and an anchor seal ( 3   c ), wherein an insert ( 4 ) is over-injected on the lid ( 3 ), made from a more flexible material than that of the cap ( 3 ), said insert ( 4 ) joining the body ( 3   a ) to the lid ( 3   b ) and forming a hinge area ( 5 ). 
     
     
         2 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 1 , wherein the cap ( 3 ) comprises
 a first cut ( 6 ) which encompasses the entire perimeter of the cap ( 3 ), with the exception of the hinge area ( 5 ), where said first cut ( 6 ) defines a line for folding back and opening the lid ( 3   b ) in relation to the body ( 3   a ); and   a plurality of first connection points ( 10 ) disposed within the area of the first cut ( 6 ) consisting of small projections formed in the inner wall of the cap ( 3 ) which keep the lid ( 3   b ) and body ( 3   a ) joined together until aperture by folding back of said lid ( 3   b ).   
     
     
         3 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 1 , wherein the cap ( 3 ) comprises
 a second peripheral cut ( 7 ) that separates the body ( 3   a ) from the anchor seal ( 3   c ); and   a plurality of second connection points ( 11 ) disposed on the inner wall of the cap ( 3 ) and on said second peripheral cut ( 7 ), the connection points ( 11 ) of which keep the body ( 3   a ) joined to the anchor seal ( 3   c ).   
     
     
         4 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 1 , wherein the lid ( 3   b ) comprises a ridge ( 8 ) for facilitating the cap ( 3 ) aperture operation. 
     
     
         5 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 1 , wherein the cap ( 3 ) comprises at least one vertical groove ( 9 ) disposed on the lid ( 3   b ) next to the ridge ( 8 ), and in that said, at least, one vertical groove ( 9 ) breaks on performing any fraudulent operation on the cap ( 3 ). 
     
     
         6 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 2 , wherein the cap ( 3 ) comprises
 a second peripheral cut ( 7 ) that separates the body ( 3   a ) from the anchor seal ( 3   c ); and   a plurality of second connection points ( 11 ) disposed on the inner wall of the cap ( 3 ) and on said second peripheral cut ( 7 ), the connection points ( 11 ) of which keep the body ( 3   a ) joined to the anchor seal ( 3   c ).   
     
     
         7 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 2 , wherein the lid ( 3   b ) comprises a ridge ( 8 ) for facilitating the cap ( 3 ) aperture operation. 
     
     
         8 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 3 , wherein the lid ( 3   b ) comprises a ridge ( 8 ) for facilitating the cap ( 3 ) aperture operation. 
     
     
         9 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 6 , wherein the lid ( 3   b ) comprises a ridge ( 8 ) for facilitating the cap ( 3 ) aperture operation. 
     
     
         10 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 2 , wherein the cap ( 3 ) comprises at least one vertical groove ( 9 ) disposed on the lid ( 3   b ) next to the ridge ( 8 ), and in that said, at least, one vertical groove ( 9 ) breaks on performing any fraudulent operation on the cap ( 3 ). 
     
     
         11 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 3 , wherein the cap ( 3 ) comprises at least one vertical groove ( 9 ) disposed on the lid ( 3   b ) next to the ridge ( 8 ), and in that said, at least, one vertical groove ( 9 ) breaks on performing any fraudulent operation on the cap ( 3 ). 
     
     
         12 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 4 , wherein the cap ( 3 ) comprises at least one vertical groove ( 9 ) disposed on the lid ( 3   b ) next to the ridge ( 8 ), and in that said, at least, one vertical groove ( 9 ) breaks on performing any fraudulent operation on the cap ( 3 ). 
     
     
         13 . The sealing device for bottles and containers, according to  claim 7 , wherein the cap ( 3 ) comprises at least one vertical groove ( 9 ) disposed on the lid ( 3   b ) next to the ridge ( 8 ), and in that said, at least, one vertical groove ( 9 ) breaks on performing any fraudulent operation on the cap ( 3 ).
