摘要:
A plastic closure embodying the principles of the present invention comprises a closure cap having a top wall portion, and an annular skirt portion depending from the top wall portion. The skirt portion includes an internal thread formation for threaded engagement with the external thread formation of an associated container. In order to facilitate high-speed application, and minimize the use of polymeric material, the closure is configured to exhibit a variation in retention force which decreases in a direction away from the top wall portion of the closure cap.

A plastic closure is disclosed which is configured for enhanced performance and reduced closure weight. Notably, the closure includes a compound, internal helical thread formation including an upper retention portion which provides desired closure hoop strength and sealing performance, and a lower guide portion which is configured for light weight while functioning to guide the closure onto an associated container during application. The closure can further include a stepped top wall portion having a relatively thick outer region, and a relatively thin central region. A tamper-evident band of the closure can be configured to include a deformable free edge portion for enhanced tamper-resistance.
摘要:
A method of compression molding a plastic article, such as a closure, includes providing a molten polymeric material, comprising a mixture of at least one molten polymer and a gas blended therein. The polymeric material is molded between cooperating male and female molds, with relative movement of the molds controlled to form a mold cavity with a predetermined volume. Formation in this manner acts to produce a molded closure with substantially reduced density, thus achieving desired material savings, while still providing a closure or like article exhibiting desired performance characteristics.

摘要:
A plastic closure formed from polymeric materials in accordance with the present invention is configured for enhanced performance, including enhanced strength and impact resistance. In one aspect of the present invention, the closure includes a top wall portion, and an annular, depending skirt portion which defines a plurality of circumferentially spaced, axial columns. Notably, in accordance with the illustrated embodiment, each of these axial columns is provided by a group of gripping knurls provided on the exterior of the skirt portion, with each group of the gripping knurls having relatively shallow valleys between adjacent ones of the knurls.
