Abstract
What is described herein is a closing cap for a container, comprising a lateral wall extending around an axis and a transversal wall positioned at one end of the lateral wall, a separating line being provided on the lateral wall to define a retaining ring, which comprises a retaining portion which extends as far as a free edge of the retaining ring and is configured to internally engage with a locking ring of a neck of the container, and a closing element removably engageable with the neck, so as to open or close the container. The separating line extends between a first end and a second end and is circumferentially interrupted to leave the closing element and the retaining ring joined. An incision line is provided on the lateral wall between the separating line and the free edge. The cap additionally comprises a tab, configured to rest on the neck when the closing element is in an open condition, and a pair of movement bands, that is to say, a first movement band and a second movement band which are defined between the separating line and the incision line and a pair of hinge bands, that is to say, a first hinge band and a second hinge band, which extend from the first movement band and from the second movement band towards the transversal wall, the tab being circumferentially interposed between the first hinge band and the second hinge band.
