An easy open closure assembly for a packaging container

摘要

A closure assembly for a packaging container (22), comprises an easy opening end closure (10) having a grip (12) and a tearing denotation (15) extending circumferentially around the end closure (10) and a membrane (18) attached to the end closure (10) at least at both sides of said tearing denotation (15). The grip (12) is connected by a strip-shaped connection portion (13) to an outer annular part (14) of the end closure (10) spaced therefrom whereby a central portion of the membrane is exposed through a central recess of the end closure (10). The annular part (14) is removable together with the inner layer (18) along a line defined by said circumferential tearing denotation (15). The annular part (14) merges into an outwardly diverging rim with an upper enlarged edge (17) against which a reclosable cover may be demountably attached. …IMAGE…
