Abstract
A spout for a container filled with a pourable product. The spout comprises at least a collar having a pouring outlet configured to allow an out-pouring of the pourable product and a lid assembly having a coupling ring rotatably arranged around the collar and a lid hinged to the coupling ring and angularly movable around a respective hinge axis. The lid is controllable between at least a closing configuration, an open configuration and an intermediate configuration. The spout comprises an interaction device partially associated to the collar and partially associated to the lid. The interaction device is configured such that control of the lid from the closing configuration to the intermediate configuration is possible only by rotation of the lid and the coupling ring around a rotation axis and such that control of the lid from the intermediate configuration to the closing configuration is possible by a sole angular movement of the lid around the hinge axis from the intermediate angular position to the closing angular position.
