Abstract

Abstract A cover-closure for containers having a relatively large opening, in particular for barrels, cans or the like, produced of synthetic material, which comprises a container having on the outside at its edge an annular rim formed of the container wall and radially projecting locking cams. A cover has an edge disposed downwardly angularly and outwardly surrounding the annular rim in the securing position. The segment is divided at least partly into segments equipped with projections extending outwardly from the lower end section, by means of vertical cutouts. The segments, in case the cover is mounted, is capable of being tensioned against the container edge below the annular rim with a tensioning ring disposed on the outside about the segments and capable of being locked below the locking cams. The container has at least three of the locking cams formed of the annular rim and is along the periphery symmetrically disposed and formed of the annular rim. In the container-wall sections are disposed between the locking cams below the locking cams at least one deepening provided adjusted as to shape to the cover edge segments.

A cover-closure for containers having a relatively large opening, in particular for barrels, cans or the like, produced of synthetic material, comprising a container having on the outside at its edge an annular rim formed of the container wall and radially projecting locking cams, a cover having an edge disposed downwardly angularly and outwardly surrounding said annular rim in the securing position, said cover edge being divided at least partly into segments equipped with projections extending outwardly from the lower end section, by means of vertical cutouts, said segments, in case said cover being mounted, being capable of being tensioned against said container edge below said annular rim with a tensioning ring disposed on the outside about said segments and capable of being locked below said locking cams, said container having at least three of said locking cams formed of said annular rim and disposed along the periphery symmetrically at the upper part of vertical outer faces, and in containerwall sections disposed between said locking cams and said vertical outer faces below said locking cams at least one deepening being provided adjusted as to shape to said cover edge segments complementarily.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 191 words
A cover-closure for containers having a relatively large opening, in particular for barrels, cans or the like, produced of synthetic material, comprising a container having on the outside at its edge an annular rim formed of the container wall and radially projecting locking cams, a cover having an edge disposed downwardly angularly and outwardly surrounding said annular rim in the securing position, said cover edge being divided at least partly into segments equipped with projections extending outwardly from the lower end section, by means of vertical cutouts, said segments, in case said cover being mounted, being capable of being tensioned against said container edge below said annular rim with a tensioning ring disposed on the outside about said segments and capable of being locked below said locking cams, said container having at least three of said locking cams formed of said annular rim and disposed along the periphery symmetrically at the upper part of vertical outer faces, and in containerwall sections disposed between said locking cams and said vertical outer faces below said locking cams at least one deepening being provided adjusted as to shape to said cover edge segments complementarily.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
