A flexible tube and a container manufactured with a detachable cover that is reusable as a cap. The detachable cover includes a plastic top member and a skirt. The plastic top member has a neck and a cover. The neck is connected to the cover by a tearable ring-shaped part. The cover has a circular plate with an interlocking mechanism, for example, at least three lugs projecting radially from a periphery of the circular plate. The skirt has a common axis of symmetry with the cover and has an inner surface that follows the periphery of the circular plate. The skirt also has a receiving mechanism, for example, at least three cavities that are positioned to receive the at least three lugs such that the skirt becomes immobilized with respect to the plastic top member. The skirt encircles the outer surface of the neck. The skirt and the cover are configured to cap the flexible tube or container after tearing the tearable ring-shaped part.

Container and flexible tube manufactured with a detachable cover that is reusable as a cap

The invention relates to a process for manufacture of a top,intended to be attached on a container or a flexible tube,and comprising a neck,the opening,of which is connected by a tearable ring-shaped part,to a cover,serving as an impervious stopper prior to breaking of the ring-shaped part and then being able to serve for recapping. The cover,is extended by a plate,the periphery,of which has a common axis of symmetry with the tearable ring-shaped part,and is provided with at least three lugs,. The skirt,is open at one end; its inner surface,is partially cylindrical, its section following the exact shape of the periphery,, except for the lugs, of the plate,, and is provided with at least three cavities,intended to accommodate said lugs. The skirt is drawn around the plate,to the point of immobilization, brought about by the insertion of the lugs,on the plate,into the cavities,of the skirt
